Chapter 6: The Princess

Empress Dowager Shengde smiled and said: "That's not possible, Prince An is reluctant." Besides, there are fewer people around you? Didn't you find two girls to read with you in the summer? Whose family is here? ”

Companion reading? The prince only wants to read with him, right? Does the princess want to do it too?

The queen said: "I remember that one is Zhang Jieyu's niece, and the other is surnamed Cui, and her father is a member of the household department. ”

"yes, I remember, I've seen it too." Empress Dowager Shotoku said: "As I get older, my memory is getting worse and worse. ”

A concubine said: "Where is the queen mother old, your spirit is much stronger than ours." ”

The sixth princess whispered: "They are boring, like wood." All of them are like a master who taught them, this one doesn't work, that one doesn't allowβ€”"

Saint De Taishi smiled and pointed at her: "You just want someone to play crazy with you." ”

The sixth princess was unhappy: "But Sister Xiaodong is alone in King An's mansion, and there are no sisters to accompany her, she is also boring, why don't you come into the palace and be with me, then don't I have a company with her?" Queen Mother, you just hurt me, bring Sister Xiaodong and Uncle An Wang to come, and be my companion. ”

Empress Dowager Shengde poked a finger on her head: "You have a lot to do." Then why don't you go and beg your Uncle Wang to go? Maybe he'll look at you and say yes. ”

The sixth princess argued: "Uncle An is not so easy to speak...... Queen Mother, there are many people in the palace who are older than me, but I don't have a sister. ”

Xiao Dong tilted his head to look at her.

The six princesses look cute, and they don't seem to be difficult to get along with. But Xiao Dong never wanted to enter the palace. The palace is already complicated, let alone the palace, Xiao Dong doesn't want to live in fear and fatigue.

Zhao Lu interjected: "My sister will also have a companion, and the cousin and cousin of the Shen family will come a few years ago." ”

The sixth princess was stunned and immediately asked, "Shen family?" Hedong Shen family? Then Shen San will not come? ”

Empress Dowager Shotoku said, "You girl, what are you doing asking about these?" ”

"Shen San's fame is so loud, but in the year of the weak crown, his reputation has spread all over the north and south of the river. Some people say that he is a descendant of Wenqu Xing......" The sixth princess whispered: "I also heard that he was born more handsome than a girl." ”

The Queen Mother smiled and shook her head: "You kid - say that you are not sensible, and you understand something." You can say that you are sensible, what do you say like a sensible person. When I come back, I'll tell you Master Ou that your homework is still too light, and let her double it for you. ”

The sixth princess suddenly had a bitter face: "The Queen Mother...... It's not easy for people. I'm not as smart as the fifth sister, I have a hard time learning what Master Ou taught, the fifth sister can learn for one hour, I have to learn two or three hours, and I may not be able to learn it. ”

This sounded as if he was praising the fifth sister for being smart. However, why does Xiao Dong think that this is sour, not so right.

The sixth princess is still a child at this age, should it be said that there is no pure innocence in the palace?

However, when Cao Cao Cao arrived, the people in the outer palace said: "The fourth princess and the fifth princess have arrived." ”

The door curtain was lifted, and the palace maid walked in with the two girls in her arms, first greeting the two queen mothers, and then asking the queen mother, and then having time to greet Xiaodong.

"This is the little lord of Uncle An's family, right?" The girl in goose yellow clothes pursed her lips and smiled: "I am your fourth sister." This is your fifth sister. ”

Xiao Dong looked at Zhao Lu, and then curtsied, but the two princesses returned the salute.

The fourth princess seemed to be twelve or thirteen years old, with a round face and thin eyebrows, and she looked kind. The fifth princess is shorter than her, but her eyes are bright and her face is like a flower. Xiao Dong looked at her, and she smiled back, with a shallow smile on her lips.

"Okay, you sisters go make love, Xiaodong is still young, you sisters have to take good care of her."

The fourth princess was the oldest, responded with a smile, took Xiao Dong's hand and said, "Come, sister Xiao Dong, let's go sit over there." ”

Her hands were soft and plump, and her palms were warm.

Xiao Dong heard that people with soft hands have soft hearts, I don't know if it's true.

Xiao Dong turned his head to look at Zhao Lu.

The fourth princess smiled and said, "Brother Lu should come with you too." ”

The sixth princess shook her head: "Don't." He's a man, what's going on with us, go and go, you go outside, don't be with us. ”

Zhao Lu Ke would not be obedient and leave, so he rushed forward and took Xiao Dong's other hand: "Father said, let me take a good look at my sister." ”

The sixth princess wanted to say more, and the fourth princess whispered: "Sixth sister, don't be naughty, be careful of the queen mother's reprimand." ”

The sixth princess quickly turned her head to take a look, and sure enough, she was honest.

Of course, she is not looking at the Empress Dowager Shengde, but the Empress Dowager Shengci.

The indifference and solemnity of the queen mother was incompatible with the lively atmosphere in this hall, and it made people feel chills at a glance.

The fourth princess led Xiaodong around the screen and walked out of the palace gate. The sun was just rising, and the morning mist had not yet lifted in the courtyard. The fourth princess pointed to the southeast and said to Xiao Dong: "I live in the Yilan Hall over there, and the fifth sister lives with me. The sixth sister is still young and lives in the Furong Hall with her mother. Well, in that direction. ”

The sixth princess took out a pink velvet hydrangea to play, the ball had a rope, one end of the rope was held in the hand of the sixth princess, the ball hung down, and the six princesses touched the ball with their toes when they walked, kicking and kicking. Xiao Dong saw butterflies embroidered on the tips of her shoes, and between the ups and downs of her footsteps, the butterflies appeared and disappeared, as if they were playing with hydrangeas.

The fourth princess said to her: "Sixth sister, don't play like this, beware of being seen." ”

The sixth princess left the queen mother's eyes, and seemed to be not very convinced by the fourth princess: "What if you see it?" ”

The fourth princess only said: "It's nothing to see it, but if it is passed on to the Empress Dowager Shengci or Master Ou......

The sixth princess shivered, not knowing whether it was cold or frightened, and immediately put the ball away honestly.

The fourth princess led her into a side room, which was also warm, with huge windows and snow-white window paper.

"There's a lot of people ahead, let's sit here for a while."

The four of them sat down around the low table, Zhao Lu next to Xiaodong and asked softly, "Is my sister tired?" ”

Xiao Dong shook his head.

The palace people served the refreshments, and the fourth princess took a piece of cake with a smile and handed it to Xiao Dong.

Dim sum, and dim sum.

Xiao Dong could only continue obediently, and the sixth princess took a sip of tea, and suddenly asked, "Sister Xiao Dong has been living in the villa with Princess An before, right?" Is this the first time you have entered the palace? ”

Xiaodong didn't know what a mountain villa was or not, but as a child, she had this benefit, she could pretend to be stupid, she took a bite of the cake, looked at the six princesses, and didn't say anything.

The sixth princess smiled again and asked, "Do you like it here, or do you like the place where you used to live?" ”

Zhao Lu explained for Xiaodong: "My sister is still young, how can I understand this." He diverted the conversation: "Fourth sister, you don't have to go to class today?" ”

"We don't have to go today. You forgot? The internal school is closed every three days, which is different from you. ”

Zhao Lu suddenly said: "Hey, I really forgot." ”
