"What if you know? I, Zhao Lin, like you, why do you want to hide it from my aunt and cousin? Zhao Lin was a little dizzy by He Xuan's sudden rebuke, his eyes looked at He Xuan in disbelief, and his voice unconsciously became louder.

"Gongzi Lin, your admiration, this princess is very moved. But talking nonsense to others like this will make uninformed people misunderstand that we are happy with each other. As he spoke, he picked up the princess's shelf and said reproachfully.

"Haha, don't worry, what I'm saying is that I like you. Well, I'm confident that you'll like me too. Zhao Lin's long hair fluttered in the air with the breeze, and when he said such a thing, he was full of confidence.

He Xuan is too lazy to bother with the man in front of him, who likes whom, in this way, once the people next to him know, it will be regarded by default as a matter of mutual affection. I have to explain it later, but I'm afraid it will get darker and darker.

So, she only asked coldly, "When did it happen?" ”

"Around that day, at the banquet when my sister became the crown princess, Xuan Xuan's clothes were splashed with soup by Princess Wen Ying. Have you forgotten? I went out of my way to give me a cloak. At that time, you told me that once when you were out of the palace, you were almost trampled to death by a wild horse that was galloping. ”

Zhao Lin replied word by word, trying to evoke Hexuan's memories.

"I remember... You departed with great displeasure that day ... Be... He Xuan lowered his head and said while thinking.

Zhao Lin nodded and said, "Yes, that thing... In a word... I went to see my aunt and begged her to take shelter from you. My aunt asked me why, and I naturally said. ”

He Xuan looked at Zhao Lin, it turned out that this man with a keen sense of smell had the same judgment as her. He also thinks that the incident was sent by Empress Zhao to do it? Therefore, he was in a hurry to find Empress Zhao to confess his thoughts?

Thinking of this, the anger in Hexuan's heart was suddenly extinguished, how could she still be angry at such a smart and kind man?

"Princess, the hour is getting soon... We're going to be late. Qing'er, who was on the side, cautiously stepped forward and reminded in a low voice.

He Xuan pondered for a moment, then returned to his previous calm expression, and said, "Okay, He Xuan will go back to the Ling Book Hall first." ”

Zhao Lin looked down on the martial arts masters in the palace, and never attended afternoon classes. At this moment, he was woken up by Qing'er, and hurriedly said: "Go quickly, don't be late for me." ”

He Xuan glanced at Zhao Lin, took off the cloak on his body, and the two of them saluted hastily and walked in different directions.

After walking a few steps, Zhao Lin glanced back, and the corners of his mouth showed a smile that was not thick or faint. Then, he tightened the cloak in his hand and hurried in the direction of leaving the palace.

When playing the piano in the afternoon, everyone should roll up their sleeves to avoid the long sleeves from getting into the strings.

In this way, the colorful jade bracelet in Hexuan's hand has become a treasure for the princess's eyes. When everyone plays the piano, they can't help but glance at it a few times.

Even Princess Tianwei was jealous, more precisely, her surprise was even worse.

He Xuan looked at it coldly, and sneered in his heart. It turned out that the person who sent the letter didn't know that the gift given by Zhao Lin was so valuable, which made Tianwei, who had always been arrogant, red-eyed.

When I returned to Zhaohua Palace, many lanterns were hung in the corridors of the entire palace, and there were many red curtains on the windows.

"This is... He Xuan stretched out his finger and pointed around, asking a little puzzled.

"Did the princess forget? June 24, the Lotus Festival, is tomorrow. Qing'er likes to be lively the most, and she laughs very happily.

He Xuan came to his senses at this time, and the Lotus Festival, as the name suggests, is a festival for appreciating lotus. She let out a soft "um" and walked back to her side hall.

While tidying up Hexuan's clothes, Qing'er said excitedly: "Princess, in previous years, I heard that the heart lake was full of lotus flowers, and the imperial dining room would also send lotus root powder, puff cake, lotus tea, lotus wine, lotus seed soup, lotus seed powder, lotus seed rice, eight-treasure lotus seed porridge, and so on. In the evening, the princess can also go to the lake to put lotus lanterns. ”

Ruolan served a cup of hot tea at the right temperature, and said with a smile: "Although the palace is good, it is not as good as the people." The slave maid remembered that when she was a child, she was outside the palace, putting up lanterns everywhere, taking a boat to enjoy the lotus, putting flower lanterns, and there were all kinds of snacks on the street. Oh yes, there are also rowing races, poetry competitions, and all kinds of activities! ”

Qing'er opened her big and round eyes, listened carefully, and proposed, "Princess, why don't you go out of the palace tomorrow and have a look!"

He Xuan took a sip of tea and said unexpectedly: "I'm not interested, it's just a small festival." ”

Ruolan rubbed the silk handkerchief in her hand and said softly: "It's okay for the princess to go out for a walk, it's okay, go to Lebin Building to have a look." ”

"Oh?" He Xuan raised his eyebrows, and Ruolan's words aroused He Xuan's interest.

He Xuan thought for a while and said, "Yes, you can take this opportunity to go out and see how Lebin Building is doing, and by the way, go to the opponent Yuefu Building to take a closer look." ”

"Yes, yes." Qing'er echoed the winning streak, and her face bloomed with joy. Ruolan also lowered her head, pursed her lips and smiled.

"Ruolan, send a message to my cousin and ask him to come to the palace tomorrow to pick me up. In this way, the mother concubine is also relieved. He Xuan told Ruolan Dao.

"No." Ruolan saluted, and then said: "Princess, when you are not here today, the slave maid heard that the several belly pockets sewn by the lady for the little emperor in Xu Jieyu's belly are about to be made, and they will be sent to Ningxian Palace in the near future." ”

"So fast?" He Xuan frowned and muttered in a low voice.

"It's not good, the princess has been busy with classes and studies almost every day, and it's been a few months." Ruolan kindly reminded.

He Xuan muttered to himself, "That's what I said." Last time, I took the time to go to Ningxian Palace to sit for a while, and I didn't notice anything unusual. Zhao Hou... Could it be that I'm wrong? ”

Speaking of Empress Zhao, Ruolan couldn't hide her hatred and said, "Empress Zhao is scheming, and the princess is still careful." ”

"But you see, Bi Yue is so arrogant, but Empress Zhao turns a blind eye. Xu Jieyu is neither favored, nor does she have a family as a backer, will she... He Xuan's expression was a little hesitant, and listening to the tone, it seemed that he was discussing with Ruolan again.

"The slave and maid can't say it well, but I just think that the Zhao family is all looking at people with their nostrils facing the sky." Ruolan's eyes drooped, hiding her sadness.

Qing'er coughed lightly and gave Ruolan a look, who didn't understand what it meant.

Qing'er had no choice but to explain: "Gongzi Lin also gave the princess a colorful jade bracelet as a birthday gift today." The slave maid looked, Gongzi Lin was really good to the princess, although he was also surnamed Zhao... ”

When Ruolan heard this, she looked at He Xuan's wrist holding the teacup, a trace of panic flashed in her eyes, and said: "The princess and Empress Zhao have no grievances, and now the prince is coming... Seemingly... ”
