"Princess, princess, it's almost time. Hurry up and get up. The sound of smoke calling came from outside the princess's bedchamber.

Ye Yugui was frightened, and when he came back to his senses, he found that his face was only half a finger away from Ye Yufu's face. In fact, he has vaguely felt that he no longer has a simple relationship for Ye Yufu that only belongs to relatives.

His eyes suddenly darkened, and he stretched out his hand to stroke the broken hair between Ye Yufu's sideburns, and muttered, "What should I do with you." ”

Ye Yufu's eyelids trembled slightly, and after a while, she frowned and slowly opened her eyes.

"Yugui, why are you here. What time is it, am I oversleeping? Ye Yufu sat up on the edge of the bed and was sleepy-eyed, her eyes were a little bloodshot, and her tone was also confused. The baggy bedgown slipped off a few points, revealing a piece of snow-white and delicate skin on his chest.

Ye Yugui looked at it, and suddenly felt his blood surge, and his eyes couldn't help but darken a little when he stared at Ye Yufu.

Ye Yufu saw that he didn't speak for a long time and kept staring at him with a dark face, so he felt strange and looked down to see that his bedclothes had slipped off: "Yugui, I really let you see the joke, I haven't been honest when I sleep, and every morning when I wake up, my clothes are not the same as before I went to bed." Ye Yufu said as she tidied up her slippery clothes.

Ye Yugui's face was a little gloomy again, and then he said in a dumb voice: "Sister Huang, are you so unwary of all men." ”

In order to understand the meaning of Ye Yugui's words, Ye Yufu thought that her sleep was too bad that Ye Yugui was frightened, so she smiled and said: "How come, you are my brother, I have no scruples." Besides, how did other men appear in the princess's mansion. ”

Ye Yugui narrowed his eyes, brother......

Then he glanced at Ye Yufu's neatly dressed bedclothes, and then hooked the corners of his lips: "Sister Huang, I'm joking, I'm here to wake you up when the hour is not early." But I see that your face is not good, and there are bloodshot eyes, did you not rest last night? ”

Hearing him say this, Ye Yufu sighed deeply, then stared at the blue curtain hanging on the collapse, and said slowly: "Yesterday...... I went to my father, and he mentioned my family...... said that he was already choosing a son-in-law for me. ”

Ye Yugui frowned, and for some reason he couldn't imagine that Ye Yufu would leave the palace and leave himself. Then lying in the arms of another man, the more he thought about it, the more irritable he felt, but looking at Ye Yufu's lowered eyelids, there seemed to be mist on his long eyelashes.

"Imperial sister, do you want to leave the palace?" Ye Yugui asked tentatively.

Ye Yufu thought for a long time after hearing this, and then shook her head gently, her voice was as gentle as the spring breeze gently crossing the lake, which made people's hearts ripple: "I...... I don't know, I've lived in this palace for more than ten years, and I've long been used to everything here, and I also thought about leaving the palace when I knew my life experience, but in the end, everything in this palace has been deeply rooted in my heart. ”

Ye Yufu paused, and said: "I don't want to leave my father, mother, and second brother, but in the end, I can't rest assured that you are the most." Don't look at you, you're taller than me now, but in the heart of the imperial sister, you seem to be the same thin and helpless but stubborn little boy in the Hangui Palace a few years ago. ”

Ye Yufu said and took Ye Yugui's hand, the fingers of those hands were slender, and the bones were so clear that Ye Yufu couldn't hold them.

Ye Yugui looked at Ye Yufu with a sad face, and then held Ye Yufu's hand with his backhand, the fingers were delicate and small in his hand, like the most exquisite object in the world, making people afraid of melting in his hand, and then he said: "Sister Huang, I am no longer a child, you don't have to protect me in front of me all the time, if you want to, then stay in the palace for the rest of your life, and I will protect you in the future." ”

Ye Yufu was moved when she heard this, and her heart trembled even more, when did Ye Yugui start to look like a man who stands up to the sky. The immature face also became more and more handsome.

She stretched out her other hand and wanted to touch Ye Yugui's head, and then Ye Yugui also knew what she meant and silently lowered her head.

"Yes, you are already a qualified prince, so you don't need me to protect you in the future. In fact, to tell you the truth, the days outside the palace make me yearn for it very much, this time out of the palace let me see a lot of things that are not in the palace, that kind of simple and free life, carefree really makes me fascinated. ”

"But the imperial sister, can you give up everything in this palace, if the emperor chooses a husband in the capital for you, then you can often visit the palace, if it is other regions, if you marry in the past, I am afraid that you will not be able to return to the palace in this life!" Ye Yugui let Ye Yufu touch his head, but his voice was low.

Ye Yufu put down the hand that was stroking Ye Yugui's head, and then hung down weakly: "The life of the parents, the words of the matchmaker." The girl who was born in this deep palace since ancient times has the one who can decide whether to marry or not. My father has given the final order, and I will stay in this palace for a year at most. ”

"Imperial Sister ......"

Ye Yufu was sentimental, secretly wiped her tears, and then changed her tone and said: "Don't talk about it, there is still a year to go anyway." By the way, Yugui, do you remember Xu Yaoshu. ”

Ye Yugui's expression on his face did not change in the slightest: "What's wrong with him." ”

Ye Yufu leaned closer to her head and said in a low voice: "I heard that he was wasted his hands and throat, and he was tied up and sent back to the Xu Mansion late one night before. I heard that Mrs. Xu's eyes were about to cry blind. ”

Ye Yugui pretended to be heartbroken, and his brows furrowed: "There is such a ruthless person, is it Xu Yaoshu who provoked someone." ”

Ye Yufu shook her head, then thought for a moment before saying, "The people of the Xu Mansion also think so, but after investigating for a long time, they still haven't found any clues. I don't know who is so frustrated, but if I met it, I was afraid I would be scared to death. ”

Ye Yugui clenched Ye Yufu's hand, and didn't know what he was thinking about, but said in a deep voice: "You won't meet it." ”

The two chatted unconsciously for almost half an hour, and Yan'er was also urged outside several times, Ye Yufu moved her body, and then collapsed.

Ye Yugui had been helping on the side while freshening up, but when his eyes swept over a brocade box on the dresser, he frowned and asked, "Sister Huang, what's in that box." ”

Ye Yufu was raising her hand to choose earrings in the mirror, and her face couldn't help but blush when she heard him ask, and she turned her head and whispered, "It's just a hairpin." ”

Ye Yugui opened the box and saw a hairpin, but the hairpin was of excellent color, caused by a rare crystal, and the exquisiteness of the hibiscus flower carving was extremely lifelike.

He said questioningly: "Sister Huang, such good jewelry, why haven't I seen you wear it before." ”

Ye Yufu coughed lightly, and then combed her long hair: "This was given to me by someone else when I left the palace." ”

"Who sent it? Men or women? Ye Yugui continued to ask.

Ye Yufu was slightly embarrassed at this time, and hurriedly changed the topic: "I'm going to change my clothes, you go out first, and we'll have breakfast together in a while." ”

Ye Yugui was silent, and then looked at the hibiscus crystal hairpin in the brocade box that shone brightly through the sunlight, closed it for a long time, and then nodded silently, turned around and closed the door and left.

After Ye Yu returned, Ye Yufu took the brocade box and breathed a sigh of relief, this hairpin was in her hands, which made her always feel a little indebted to Yu Baiyi, but I don't know if this favor will have the opportunity to return it in the future......

At breakfast, for some reason, Ye Yufu always felt that Ye Yugui was in a bad mood, and he didn't talk much with a dark face. In the end, he left in a hurry by saying that the prince had something to do.

As soon as Ye Yu left, Ruan Day, who had not been seen for a day, wore a coarse cloth palace maid's dress, washed away the glitz outside the palace, and knelt respectfully in front of Ye Yufu.

Ye Yufu first asked: "How did you stay in the palace, who was still down-to-earth last night." ”

Ruan Tian still looked cold, and there was no trace of waves in his tone: "Princess Xie cares, everyone in Her Royal Highness is very good, and they all taught me a lot of things yesterday." ”

Ye Yufu nodded: "That's good." Then he took out a jade plaque engraved with words from his bosom and stuffed it into Ruan Tian's hand.

"Since you have entered the princess hall, then you will be a person in my palace from now on. This is my token, you take it first, with it, you can better find out about your father in this palace. But you have to be careful not to cause me unnecessary trouble. ”

Ruan Tian clenched the cold jade plaque in his hand, kowtowed, and said gratefully: "Princess Xie, I will definitely try to find him." ”

Ye Yufu waved her hand, and then said, "Go down, there is still breakfast left in the small kitchen, you can go quickly." ”

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it has come to the Spring Festival. There was a fiery red scene outside the palace, so it was not lively. The palace also ended a year of tedious affairs, and all palaces began to be decorated with lights.

In the queen's palace, Ye Yuxuan was wearing an indigo silk python robe and leaned in front of Wang Jiao'e and whispered. Although Ye Yuxuan is Ye Yugui's biological brother, his appearance and temperament are completely different, Ye Yugui looks more like Wang Jiao'e, with a handsome face but with a hint of charm, while Ye Yuxuan is more like Ye Duanli, tall and heroic, but always full of a ruthless atmosphere.

To say that Ye Duanli's favor for him is even more than that of the crown prince.

Wang Jiao'e raised her eyebrows while buttoning the bright red Kodan on her nails, and said with a smile for a while: "Xuan'er, well done, originally the crown prince's solution to the rebellion on the northern border was a heavy blow to us, but thanks to your continuous lobbying of those officials when you left the palace in the past few months." ”

Ye Yuxuan smiled disdainfully: "That fool of the prince can solve such a big matter, it must be because there are others behind him to help, but this kind of good thing will not have a second time." At present, about 60 percent of the ministers in the court have taken a stand, and of these 60 percent, I have already said that more than half of them support me, and the remaining 40 percent who have not expressed their position are just holding a wait-and-see attitude. ”

Wang Jiao'e was half-leaning on the chair at the moment, but her eyes suddenly showed a little melancholy: "Your father's health is getting worse and worse, I'm afraid I won't be able to last a few years, and I am also sad to look at him these days and your mother." ”

"Queen Mother, I really don't know what my father thinks, but he doesn't know that you love her so much, but he spoils that Song Shufei all day long, these days he is sick and who has been taking care of you except the queen mother."

Wang Jiao'e lowered her eyelids and rubbed her swollen temples: "Xuan'er, don't say it." I'm a little tired, you go down first, and leave the palace in two days to have a good discussion with the Liu family. ”

"Okay, then the queen mother, please have a good rest today, and the child will retreat first."
