Chapter Thirty-Seven: The First Meeting of Rivals in Love

Although the backyard of the Lingshu Hall is not as magnificent as the Imperial Garden, it also has carefully arranged rockeries, flowing water, and various flowers and plants. Qi Hou and He Xuan were walking and chatting inside, so uncomfortable.

The attendants behind the two, Qing'er and Daping, also lowered their heads, whispering something, and a little laughter came from time to time.

"The second princess is really in good interest today!" A familiar voice came from behind and into the ears of the two men.

When He Xuan heard this voice, he chuckled in his heart.

Qi Hou and He Xuan turned around almost at the same time, one with a normal inquiring look on his face, and the other with a faint disdain on his face.

"Who else do I think, it turned out to be the son of the Chu State, disrespectful and disrespectful." Qi Hou had a smile on his face, clasped his fists, and bowed slightly.

Mi Xian returned the salute with a smile on his face and said, "Childe is polite." ”

He Xuan didn't want to deal with Mi Xian at all, so he just stood aside and looked at the two of them coldly to say hello, thinking in his heart that he would find an excuse to slip away.

After greeting Qi Hou just now, Mi Xian immediately turned his head to He Xuan, and asked softly, "I don't know how the second princess is doing recently?" ”

"This princess is fine, don't bother with Gongzixian." He Xuan said coldly, and he was like two people who had just been with the same warmth.

Of course, Qi Hou didn't understand the reason for this, but he felt that Hexuan's attitude was a little strange in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face.

Mi Xian originally thought that Princess Hexuan seemed to be in a good mood today, but who would have thought that as soon as she met herself, she changed her face.

Somehow, Mi Xian, who has always been calm, said: "It seems that Mi Xian disturbed the second princess's Yaxing." ”

These words sounded sour, and for a while, the air between the three of them began to tense.

Qi Hou was a gentle man, so he naturally didn't want the scene to be so embarrassing, so he changed the topic and said: "By the way, I heard that this Master Li is from the Chu State, I don't know if Gongzixian has heard of it when he was in the Chu State?" ”

Mi Xian didn't expect that he would lose his temper, and after listening to Qi Hou's words at this moment, his face returned to a modest expression, and he said: "Master Li travels around to study, and Mi Xian rarely goes out of the palace of the King of Chu, and he has never seen it. ”

Then, Mi Xian saw that Qi Hou was a little disappointed, and made up for it, saying: "However, I heard that Li Fuzi's hometown is in Luyi County, Chu State, I heard my father tell Li Fuzi's deeds, and I heard that his disciples are all over the Great Zhou, and they are by no means idle. ”

"What Gongzixian said is very true. When I first saw Mr. Li today, I could feel a kind of scholarly bearing, and it was my luck to have such a teacher. Qi Hou nodded yes.

Seeing that the atmosphere had eased up a little, Mi Xian looked at Hexuan, who had not yet spoken on the side, and said flatteringly: "Thanks to the suggestion made by the second princess in front of His Majesty, otherwise how would we have the opportunity to get together for class, and we can still have such a powerful teacher." ”

He Xuan looked at Qi Hou and Mi Xian chatting with relish, and said coldly: "I just mentioned the matter of opening the school casually." As for Master Li, it was not recommended by me. ”

This time, Qi Hou listened to it clearly, and He Xuan deliberately did not give Mi Xian face. Qi Hou, who didn't know it, looked at He Xuan with a hint of surprise in his eyes, in his heart, He Xuan has always been so gentle and moving, it shouldn't be like this!

So, Qi Hou looked at Mi Xian, who was two years younger than him, and said a little embarrassedly: "Gongzixian, the second princess just told me that she is a little unwell, don't be surprised." ”

When He Xuan heard Qi Hou's words, his belly was about to be burst, couldn't this guy see that she didn't like Mi Xian here? even asked Mi Xian not to blame her?

A hint of displeasure flashed in Mi Xian's eyes, and in an instant, he turned into an apologetic smile, and said, "Gongzi is laughing, how dare I blame the second princess!" The second princess Bingxue is smart, and it's too late for Mi Xian to appreciate it. ”

Then, Mi Xian's eyes shifted from Qi Hou's face to He Xuan's powder, staring directly at the latter.

When He Xuan heard this, his heart was filled with nausea, and he almost vomited after the lunch he had just eaten. She scolded Mi Xian silently in her heart, when did this person become so cheap, the more she didn't want to see him, the more she had to stick it like a dog skin plaster.

Qi Hou didn't notice anything unusual about the ten-year-old boy, just smiled at the koi fish in the small pond at his feet. In his heart, He Xuan is the most beautiful woman in the world, and naturally everyone should praise her.

"Gongzixian!" A call came from afar.

I saw a bright little girl in a peach-colored dress jumping on the ground, and the three of them waited for her to take a closer look, it turned out to be the fifth princess Tianwei, followed by Princess Wen Ying.

"Ah, it turns out that there are still the second emperor sister and the son!" Princess Tianwei seemed to have just seen the two people beside Mi Xian, and said with a smile.

Princess Wen Ying followed behind Princess Tianwei a little shyly, just smiled and nodded at everyone with a red face, which was regarded as a greeting.

He Xuan looked at Tianwei, and all kinds of things in his previous life seemed to be vivid. She felt that this woman, no matter her age, was so disgusting to her.

It's a pity that at this moment, He Xuan doesn't have the ability to fall out with Tianwei and Queen Zhao, she was still cold just now, and when she saw Tianwei, she had to squeeze out a proper smile on her face, and then nodded at Wen Ying.

"Qi Hou has seen the fifth princess, the sixth princess." Qi Hou was a well-mannered person, and immediately went up to the archers to salute the two princesses of the Great Zhou.

Because Mi Xian has seen Tianwei and Wen Ying for a long time in Ningxian Palace, and the two little girls like to revolve around him when they have nothing to do, the three of them never need to salute when they meet.

"Childe is kind." Tianwei immediately raised her hand with a smile, and then put it next to Mi Xian's side, and said, "Why did you run here, it's easy for us to find it." ”

Mi Xian said lightly: "It's nothing, I'll have lunch and go out for a walk." Isn't there a saying among the common people that if you walk a hundred steps after a meal, you will live to ninety-nine. ”

As soon as Tianwei heard the word "lunch", her small mouth immediately pursed, her brows furrowed, and she said coquettishly: "You can still eat it, what kind of lunch is this!" I have not been abused like this since I was born. ”

He Xuan naturally understands that Tianwei is not only a pampered princess, but also a poor and extravagant person in her bones. There is a saying called watching the old from a young age, and it is applied to Tianwei's body, which is really good.

An honest and kind person like Qi Hou only regarded Tianwei as a spoiled eight-year-old child, so he patiently comforted: "The princess's golden branches and jade leaves, from a variety of imperial meals suddenly became four dishes and one soup, it is indeed difficult for the princess." However, Master Li did this to let us experience the people's livelihood, not to make things difficult for the princess. ”

Tianwei was not interested in what Qi Hou said, just smiled perfunctorily, and then said to Mi Xian: "I don't care, I'll go to my father after class in the afternoon, so I don't want to eat this four dishes and one soup every day at noon!" ”

Princess Wen Ying, who had been standing quietly beside her, muttered softly: "It's not every day, we can rest for two days every five days." ”

Tianwei glanced at Princess Wen Ying and said angrily: "You are a good-natured person!" Today's meal is enough for me, and let me eat it for five days in a row? ”

Princess Wen Ying choked, immediately closed her mouth, and only stood quietly aside.

Although Mi Xian was very annoyed by the two little girls who had been pestering him, because of the power of Princess Tianwei and Empress Zhao in the palace, he had to say with a pleasant face: "In fact, the rich people outside the palace eat not only four dishes and one soup, but it is normal for the fifth princess to be unaccustomed to eating." ”

Princess Tianwei, who was coaxed by Mi Xian, really disappeared most of the anger on her face.

However, Mi Xian remembered that the idea of the harem school was mentioned to Princess Xuan, and he was an ambitious person, so he naturally hoped to have this opportunity to contact these noble people more. Therefore, he was quite worried that Princess Tianwei's words were not light or serious, and she would stir up the matter of this royal school.

So, Mi Xian smiled at Tianwei embarrassedly, and added: "Fifth princess, why don't you wait for the limelight in the past few days, and then talk to Your Majesty slowly?" ”

Tianwei was comforted by Mi Xian, and she was not so anxious to go to the emperor to complain. Besides, she wasn't sure if she would be reprimanded by her father if she sued, so she naturally went down the steps.

Just as Tianwei was about to pull Mi Xian's sleeve with a smile, she was stunned to find that Mi Xian was secretly looking at He Xuan at the moment. A sour feeling suddenly surged up, and there was a hint of hesitation in his eyes when he looked at Hexuan, but he didn't say anything.

In this backyard, the five of them fed the koi fish in the pond and chatted about Zhou Tianzi's birthday banquet in the near future.

Seeing that the hour was almost up, they were about to rush back to the Ling Shu Hall to prepare for the afternoon class.

He Xuan knew very well in his heart that Mi Xian was a little Chu State proton, as long as he didn't become a demon, he would not be afraid in this Great Zhou Palace. As for the future, just think of a way not to let the tiger return to the mountain.

As for Tianwei and Empress Zhao, the mother and daughter are as ruthless and vicious, and Empress Zhao is the master of the harem. He Xuan is just a powerless princess at the moment, and she has to be false and wrong, and she can't let the other party discover her enemy too early.

When I returned to the Ling Shu Palace, those meals had already been taken down by the palace people, and the room was neat and tidy.

Mr. Li and several of his assistant teachers were also gone, and the boys and girls were neatly arranged in two rows according to their gender.

A platoon followed the leading eunuch to the training ground. In the afternoon, these boys will learn the five arts of riding and archery, one a day.

The other row followed the lady in charge and went to the Mingle Palace, which was the palace music workshop. These girls have to learn piano, chess, calligraphy, painting and embroidery in the afternoon, one a day.

He Xuan paced towards Mingle Palace with the team, in fact, except for chess, he was not too interested in these classes in the afternoon. In her last life, she was a talented woman, but unfortunately her chess skills were not good.

As he walked, the whispering voice of the palace people came. He Xuan turned his head sideways with displeasure on his face, and glared at a few palace people standing in the corner of the wall with mysterious expressions.
