Chapter 67: The relationship is complicated

There was a "whooshing" sound among the flowers, and the figure moved, and two people walked over with slow, heavy steps.

He Xuan looked at it fixedly, it was Qi Hou, and the person following him was Qi Xian.

"I thought it was who, it turned out to be Gongzi Hou and Gongzi Xian! The two protons are valuable, and they must be lost. Zhao Lin's tone was very affirmative, but the expression on his face was intriguing.

Obviously eavesdropping, Zhao Lin only mocked slightly.

Qi Hou and Mi Xian had some contact with Zhao Lin in private, but they were all unpleasant experiences. Because of this, the two protons heard the meaning of Zhao Lin's words, and their faces were a little embarrassed.

"Princess, you... Qi Hou lowered his head, pointed to the colorful jade bracelet on He Xuan's hand, said half of his words, thought about it for a while, and finally swallowed the other half back without saying anything.

This colorful jade bracelet and this snow-white cloak are so dazzling in Qi Hou's opinion.

He Xuan is even more embarrassed, she has always regarded Qi Hou as a big brother and a close friend.

The gift given by Zhao Lin is worth more than all the gifts given by Qi Hou combined, maybe more than that.

The man's self-esteem made Qi Hou stop asking.

He Xuan could see the sadness on Qi Hou's face, although she couldn't fully understand her mind, she didn't want to hurt such a gentle man. I lowered my head and thought about it for a long time, but I didn't know what to say.

Qi Hou was silent when he saw him, a wry smile on the corner of his mouth, and his expression was very sad.

Why did Qi Hou and Qi Xian pass through here at the same time? Do the two of them have a good relationship?

With such doubts, He Xuan squinted his eyes and glanced at the Qi Xian behind Qi Hou, with a face that could not be seen.

It must have been him, it must have been him on purpose.

Thinking of this, the hand hidden in the sleeve clenched into a fist, wishing that a dagger could poke into the heart of that sinister man.

"Is Gongzi Hou asking about this jade bracelet? This is Zhao Lin's birthday gift to the princess. Zhao Lin's face was light, and he said with a smile.

Zhao Lin had been quietly watching from the side, Qi Hou's face full of sadness, and his silence and anger were all in his eyes.

"Princess's... Birthday? Mi Xian asked hesitantly. This is his first year in the Great Zhou Palace, and many things are still not true. After a moment, it suddenly dawned on me: "Oh... I remember that Princess Hexuan's birthday was in the fall. ”

Qi Hou's face softened slightly, and he looked at Zhao Lin with some suspicion in his eyes, and said, "Gongzi Lin, there are still some days before the princess's birthday... ”

"Haha, Zhao Lin may not be lucky enough to enter the palace to congratulate the princess on her birthday, so he sent it in advance." Zhao Lin laughed twice, and resolved the embarrassment at the moment in a few words.

He Xuan glanced at Zhao Lin gratefully, and then glanced at Mi Xian coldly.

"I see." Qi Hou seemed to believe it, the remaining doubts in his eyes seemed to disappear, he looked at He Xuan gently, and said: "The princess's birthday is approaching, Qi Hou has already prepared a gift, waiting for the princess's birthday banquet to be presented in person." ”

"Childe is polite, and Xuan's birthday, it's good that Childe is here, and it doesn't matter if the gift is given or not." He Xuan smiled slightly, and said softly in a humble voice.

"Oh? It turns out that the princess's birthday is going to be a banquet? It's Zhao Lin who hasn't known about it for many years. Zhao Lin pretended to pat his head, then leaned in front of He Xuan, and said with a smile: "Princess Shouli has already accepted it, so this son is also among the invites, right?" ”

He Xuan glanced at Zhao Lin with disgust, and didn't want to be too familiar with Zhao Lin in front of Qi Hou, so he lowered his head and said softly: "This is natural." ”

Mi Xian, who had not been silent, saw that Qi Hou and Zhao Lin did not fight, but instead curry favor in front of Hexuan, and were a little anxious, so he said: "Mi Xian has just entered the Great Zhou Palace, and I hope that the princess can appreciate her face and let Mi Xian participate in the birthday banquet." ”

He Xuan didn't want to see this face on his birthday. The last time she had a birthday, when she was twenty-five years old, she will never forget what happened on that day.

"Princess, Gongzixian is also a heart, and the princess will fulfill him." Qi Hou was stunned when he saw Hexuan, and hurriedly said a few words for Qi Xian. In Qi Hou's eyes, Mi Xian is just a child.

Zhao Lin heard Qi Hou's words, raised his eyebrows, and looked at Qi Hou with playfulness at the corners of his mouth.

"Don't blame the princess." Mi Xian added at the right time, his expression respectful and modest.

How did he know she was blaming? He Xuan raised his head, stared at Qi Xian for a second, and then smiled and said to Qi Hou: "What Gongzi Hou said is very true. ”

He Xuan said this, which was regarded as a promise to let Mi Xian attend her birthday banquet. Since you can't hide, let him come.

As Emperor Zhou Ming's favorite princess, every birthday, Emperor Zhou Ming has to put on a big pomp to celebrate. Even if Mi Xian goes, he is just a foil among everyone.

"Thank you, princess. Since this is the case, Mi Xian will go back first. Mi Xian achieved his goal, but he was afraid that He Xuan would change his mind, so he thought about slipping away quickly.

He Xuan wished that Mi Xian would disappear from sight as soon as possible, and he didn't pay attention to him, just hoping that he would go faster.

"Princess, Qi Hou has also taken his leave." Qi Hou said lightly and saluted respectfully. Before leaving, his eyes fell on Zhao Lin's face, and there was a trace of hesitation in his eyes.

He Xuan smiled and nodded, looking at the two of them turning to leave, and He Xuan stared at Mi Xian's back with a cold gaze.

That person has been secretly calculating and plotting. His eyebrows and eyes are so annoying, one glance can make people eat a grain of rice for three days.

"Xuanxuan, the prince of Chu is really interesting." Zhao Lin said faintly.

He Xuan turned his head sideways to look at Zhao Lin, noncommittal, her thoughts, could she not hide Zhao Lin? He Xuan secretly sighed in his heart that Zhao Lin's observation ability was so powerful.

"That's right," He Xuan suddenly remembered, looked at Zhao Lin with a somewhat sharp gaze, and asked, "How could Tianwei help you pass a note to me?" ”

"Haha, this... Zhao Lin's tone and expression were telling He Xuan that Tianwei seemed to know.

"What did you tell her?" The anger of the pair of Mixian that He Xuan had just suppressed was hooked out at this moment. Thinking about Tianwei's expression when she threw her silk handkerchief, Tianwei must have known something.

"I... Didn't say anything either. Just say I like you ... Zhao Lin was a little embarrassed, with a hint of timidity on his face, looking at Hexuan.

He Xuan flicked his sleeves, pursed his lips, and said angrily, "Why did you tell her like this?" In this way, Empress Zhao also knew? ”

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