"The eldest princess, the second princess has arrived."

A soft female voice dragged the tall and thin woman with pensive eyes back to the fair lady in a pale pink brocade robe in front of her.

"Imperial sister, I am invited to come to the willow forest downstairs in this city, I don't know what it is?" Princess Changting had been immersed in the sadness of giving marriage, and asked with a numb expression.

He Xuan knew the tragic fate of Princess Changting for a long time, and He Xuan, who was reborn once, had even more compassion for these poor people around him.

"It's nothing, it's just that Tongyaotai is too bustling today, and I heard that my father just gave me a marriage, so I wanted to ask you out to relax." He Xuan pretended to be careless, and his fingers gently brushed the hanging willow branches nearby.

"Marriage", these two words were mentioned again, Princess Changting seemed to be stabbed by the tip of a needle, her body trembled slightly, and she did not make a sound.

"Hmm... The atmosphere was a little awkward, and after thinking for a moment, he said with a straight face: "King Wu Hui is indeed not a good match for the imperial sister, but the imperial sister should know that as a princess, she can't escape the fate of being married to the princes and sharing the worries of the Great Zhou Dynasty." ”

Princess Changting was pierced by He Xuan so straightforwardly, and looked at He Xuan with frightened eyes, looking very panicked.

"Sister Huang, don't get excited, I don't mean anything else, I just want to come and comfort a few words, so that you don't have to be so sad." Looking at Princess Changting's appearance, He Xuan said in a soothing tone.

Princess Changting's eyelashes trembled, and there were some tears in her eyes, and she asked cautiously, "Really?" Come and comfort me? With all due respect, I have no deep friendship with my sister. ”

"Yes, I have no ill intentions. Although King Wu Hui is not handsome, he is old and steady. Come to think of it, if the imperial sister marries in the past, King Wu Hui will definitely take good care of you. He Xuan didn't know why she said such a thing in a daze, obviously she was just a twelve-year-old girl now.

"Hehe," Princess Changting snorted softly, a line of tears slid down her cheeks, and immediately wiped them away with the handkerchief in her hand.

She said with a kind of ironic chill in her tone: "Hexuan, you are so righteous and righteous, but if it were you, would you be willing to marry an old man?" ”

was asked like this, and Xuan was stunned, obviously she was here to comfort Princess Changting, why did she make her sad and angry?

Suddenly, Princess Changting knelt at Hexuan's feet, grabbed the hem of Hexuan's clothes tightly with both hands, and sobbed: "Imperial sister, my father has always favored you, and he is willing to listen to you even for such an important matter as opening a royal academy. Why don't you beg my father for me, so that he can take back his will! ”

He Xuan hurriedly went to help Princess Changting, who fell to the ground, and pulled her up from the ground with Qing'er.

Facing Princess Changting's hopeful eyes, He Xuan shook his head and said slowly: "Sister Huang, it's not that He Xuan doesn't want to help you. This matter was promised by his father and the emperor himself in front of the princes, and it was irretrievable. ”

Princess Changting's eyes were full of tears, she raised her head to look at the tall willow tree in front of her, sighed, and said, "I know that my mother is from a humble background and has never been favored by her father. ”

Princess Changting's eyes fell into the memory, as if talking to herself, and muttered: "Therefore, since the day I was born, I have not been cherished by my father, and I have spent my life in the harem with my mother carefully, and I dare not have a trace of slackness." My mother's only wish is that I can give a good family and live my life in peace. ”

"Who would have thought that our mother and daughter lived so cautiously and couldn't escape the words 'humble origin' in the end. It is like a chasm that can never be crossed, deeply isolating my mother, me, and my future children from the door of the full moon. Hehe, how can you understand a dilemma like me, who is favored and well-spoiled? ”

When He Xuan heard this, his heart tightened and he was quite touched. Princess Changting has always been a quiet foil among the princesses, rarely speaking.

"No, I believe you have a chance to earn your own way." And Xuan's confidence that he didn't know where it came from, comforted this sad princess Changting.

"It's just... After all, King Wu Hui is old, and one day he will... The imperial sister married to the state of Wu, and she should still plan for the future as soon as possible. The road ahead is difficult and dangerous, and the royal sister cherishes it! "Superfluous words, He Xuan can't say it anymore, that's all, I just hope that Princess Changting in this life can get rid of the miserable situation.

Princess Changting gently wiped away the remaining tears from the corners of her eyes, squeezed out a smile, and said to Hexuan: "I have always been transparent in this harem as if I can't see it, and very few princes and princesses are willing to talk to me more." Anyway, in today's situation, everyone avoids me and is afraid of it, only you, willing to persuade me, thank you! ”

After saying that, Princess Changting straightened her thin and tall body and solemnly saluted to He Xuan.

"Is this the cockatoo you are talking about?" At this moment, Princess Changting, who was in a slightly calmer mood, asked curiously, as if she had just seen the cuteness following behind Hexuan.

"Well, it's called Meng Meng, and it was given by Gongzi Kai of Qin State just above the city tower." And Xuan replied methodically.

The two looked at the white and chubby Meng Meng, Meng Meng looked at He Xuan on the left and Chang Ting on the right, as if they were looking at the two of them, very clever, not at all like ordinary birds.

"It's so cute!" Princess Changting praised with a smile, and then walked slowly into the distance.

He Xuan looked at the back of Princess Changting in the distance, and secretly sighed that fate was so unfair to people, and sweated in his heart for Princess Changting, who was about to marry Wu Guo.

In addition to reminding her, what else can she do for Princess Changting?

"Xuanxuan, we met again so soon! I just wanted to ask you, where did you get that little white and fat thing? ”

He Xuan has gradually become accustomed to the voice of this bewitching man, and he didn't look back, stroked the willow leaves in front of him with his hand, and said slowly: "Why, is Gongzilin also so curious?" I don't know why, I can always meet Childe Lin by chance, I think about it, does Childe Lin have a hobby of stalking others? ”

Zhao Lin walked quickly to He Xuan, brushed aside the willow branch, lowered his head, looked at her with a ghostly look, and said, "Guess, am I following you, or are you and I so destined?" ”

"Gongzilin, provoke me three times and twice, what do you mean?"

The corners of Zhao Lin's mouth raised a wicked smile, and he chuckled: "Hehe, my mind, don't you understand?" ”

He Xuan naturally understood that Zhao Lin was thinking of teasing her, his cheeks were red, he held his breath, and said, "He Xuan is unknown." ”

"Hahahaha!" Zhao Lin smiled as if he couldn't straighten his waist, and after a long while, he said slowly: "It's okay, I just like to see you blush every time you are teased by me, it's so cute!" ”

He Xuan glanced at Zhao Lin, who had never been serious, with disgust, and scolded softly: "Gongzi Lin, I see that you are really idle and panicked, right?" A dignified seven-foot man, he doesn't care about his family and country, he will only run to the harem like a little white face on weekdays, gnawing on the family of the Zhao family, I'm really ashamed of you! ”

"You're wrong." Zhao Lin categorically interrupted Hexuan's words.

"Oh? What's wrong? He Xuan blurted out, raising his eyebrows.

"It's eight feet!"

"What?" He Xuan didn't hear clearly, and asked again with a frown.

"I'm eight feet long! Not seven feet! Zhao Lin gestured casually with his hand, and explained with some unhappiness on his face: "Seven feet, only so tall, it is about a head taller than you." I'm eight feet long, you see, two heads taller than you. ”

As he spoke, Zhao Lin took a step closer to He Xuan's body and compared it with his hand, and sure enough, the height of He Xuan was only as high as Zhao Lin's chest.

Zhao Lin's body exuded a faint fragrance, and his body seemed to be sprinkled with heat, attacking towards Hexuan.

"Ahh Meng Meng screamed, the voice was low and hoarse, but very loud, as if protecting its little master.

A cute scream woke up He Xuan, who was originally stunned.

"Childe Lin, what you care about is just your height?" He Xuan's face turned even redder, and he immediately took a step back and asked pretending to be calm.

"Of course not, and my handsome appearance and chic bearing! Hahahaha! Zhao Lin stood in place and said with a big laugh.

"Gongzilin, even if you don't want your own face, save some face for your Zhao family, right?" and Xuan Qi do not fight in one place.

"Well, all you need to know is that sooner or later you will be my man." Zhao Lin flicked his sleeves open-mindedly, but with a hint of cunning in his eyes, he looked straight at He Xuan.

Where did Zhao Lin get his confidence? He Xuan rolled Zhao Lin's eyes angrily and walked away angrily.

"Be careful when I catch your little pet, cook it, and eat it!" Zhao Lin shouted at He Xuan's back with a smile.

Although He Xuan's footsteps did not stop, he glanced back at Zhao Lin viciously, and then went up to the city tower without looking back.

When He Xuan returned to Tongyaotai, everyone was a little drunk, some people began to sway when they walked, and some people even had big tongues when they spoke. He Xuan looked at these drunken people, and the boredom in his heart was even worse.

She hurried back to her seat, thinking that it would be a few more hours before the feast was over.

The corners of Bi Yue's eyebrows and eyes were full of style, and while feeding Emperor Zhou Ming grapes, he filled Fang Zun with a full bottle of wine and handed it over.

Looking at Empress Zhao again, there was not the slightest displeasure on her face, she only took a sip of wine, and looked at the people in Tongyaotai with a dignified demeanor.

Because Xu Jieyu was pregnant, her body really couldn't support it, so she went through the motions and asked to return to the palace.

He Xuan didn't know how much she envied Xu Jieyu in her heart, how good it would be if she could leave this noisy place earlier!
