The two people hidden in the teahouse not far from the Ningguo Mansion were still quietly looking at the door of the Guogong Mansion, which was already empty.

Lu Qingyun sighed and said, "If she wasn't my cousin, I'd be sure of this woman!" ”

After speaking, he glanced at Feng Jiuqing with deep meaning, but found that the light flashing in his eyes was the eyes that a man would only show to the woman he liked.

Feng Jiuqing listened to him, glared at him fiercely, and said contemptuously: "It's like you can get it if you say you want it!" ”

"Hmph, what does the prince mean when he says this, why does it have a sour taste? I remember the dumplings I ate in the morning, I didn't dip them in vinegar! Lu Qingyun continued to provoke without fear of death.

Feng Jiuqing looked at him with dangerous eyes, and only after a moment did he suddenly say, "If you have a sour taste, it should be you sour, right?" Brother Qingyun, it's not uncommon for cousins and sisters to kiss each other, why don't you try it? ”

"Well, what the prince said is also right, I'll go back and find out my grandmother's tone, thank you for the reminder!" Lu Qingyun seemed to have an understanding, and he also arched his hand to thank Feng Jiuqing.

He didn't believe it, Feng Jiuqing could still be hard-mouthed, so don't blame his brother for not helping!

Feng Jiuqing shook her fan and said relaxedly: "Hmm...... In that case, I should congratulate Brother Qingyun, I'm afraid I don't even have to do it as a cousin! ”

He knows that woman's temperament very well, and her stubbornness makes people feel headache and resoluteness. If she is cold to you, I am afraid that no matter what you do, she will not be able to warm up! Lu Qingyun will not be the object she wants to choose, or rather, in her heart, I am afraid that no one is the object she wants to choose!

Lu Qingyun snorted, knowing that Feng Jiuqing was telling the truth, but he was unwilling to admit defeat, pointed to the other side, and said, "I seem to have seen Mingxi just now, if my guess is right, I'm afraid he will have to go home and let his parents propose!" From now on, those who go to the Ningguo Mansion to ask for relatives are afraid that the threshold of the Ningguo Mansion will really be flattened! ”

Feng Jiuqing smiled evilly and said, "Then I hope they will ask for more blessings!" ”

Whoever dares to force Bai Hibiscus to marry, just wait to see her means, this matter, he does not plan to mix for the time being, the most patient hunter, never rashly starts, he will wait, step by step to lead the cunning little leopard into the trap, and there is no possibility of escape!

Looking at Feng Jiuqing's ten-handedness, Lu Qingyun was very unhappy, this guy was always so calm and relaxed, if he didn't understand his mind, he would definitely think that Bai Mu Hibiscus didn't have much weight in the heart of His Royal Highness King Xuan!

Feng Jiuqing has never been interested in women, and even hates women being obsessed with him, often teasing them ruthlessly, and then scaring people so much that they don't dare to provoke him anymore. But if this person is not moved, if he does, he will never be fake, and he will not give up easily!

With this fox-like method of His Royal Highness King Xuan, his cousin is afraid that it will not be so easy to escape! Ay...... I sighed silently for Bai Hibiscus in my heart, and I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse!

"This king still has something to do, so I won't accompany you to drink tea, less accompaniment!" After finishing speaking, he left with light steps, leaving Lu Qingyun to shake his head, and said in his heart, it's not time to rush to the palace to see people, he said that he was not in a hurry, and he was afraid that he was about to explode in his heart, man, it was the same duplicity!

In the Xuanshu Palace, Bai Mu Hibiscus stood there quietly, the emperor hadn't come yet, and he didn't know if he was deliberately hanging himself, or if there was really something delayed, anyway, she had two pillars of incense when she came, and no one paid attention to her!

"County Lord, do you want to have a cup of tea and wait slowly?" The female official who was still serving tea in front of the emperor couldn't look at it, so she came over and asked politely.

Bai Mu Hibiscus smiled gratefully at her, and said very politely: "You're welcome, thank you!" ”

The female official was not reluctant, nodded to her, and went to work on herself again, the people in front of the emperor never deliberately flattered anyone, most of the time, it was others who scolded them.

Bai Mujian naturally didn't dare to despise any one, so whoever came over here, she would nod politely, neither humble nor express her kindness.

After a long time, the emperor came in from outside, and Bai Mujian quickly knelt down and said, "Greetings to the emperor, long live the emperor!" ”

The emperor glanced at her lightly, did not squeak, but sat on the soft couch by himself, and immediately someone offered a cup of tea, and he also picked it up casually and took a sip gently.

Bai Mu Hibiscus said in his heart, the nobles in this palace are all very troublesome, and even the means of giving people the power are the same, I am afraid that my knees, which are not good, will be injured again!

But she didn't dare to complain, the person who asked her to kneel was not something she could offend at will, a careless thing was a matter of losing her head, and she wouldn't argue with the emperor for this little thing.

Kneel obediently, you can't kneel for a while without dying, not to mention that the emperor doesn't dare to let her kneel to death! Even if the emperor wants to kill someone, there must be a valid reason, otherwise she will die as a big living person, and she will have to leave him with infamy through the ages!

Sure enough, the emperor didn't really plan to let her kneel for too long, but after half a cup of tea, he coughed lightly and said, "The county lord of Anping is flat!" ”

Then he said to the person next to him: "The county lord of Anping is not well, bring her a stool!" ”

"Thank you for the emperor's grace!" Bai Mujian respectfully thanked the seat, and sat down in a proper manner, but sitting is slightly more comfortable than standing, in front of the emperor, where dare to really sit, the butt is next to a little stool, it is already amazing!

The emperor glanced at her and thought to himself, such a villain, really has so many hearts? But at that time, the people he sent were not far away, but there was no one around to guide her, even his transparent cousin, I am afraid that he could not think of such an idea.

After a while, the emperor spoke: "I announced that you entered the palace, do you know what is going on?" ”

Even if Bai Mujin knew, he didn't dare to say that he knew, the emperor was like that, he wanted to pretend to be profound, so don't tell his mind, so he said respectfully: "The minister is stupid!" ”

"Stupid? It's not a word for you at all, right? The emperor had an unpredictable smile on his face, not like he was happy, nor like he was angry, as if it was an expression, just to keep his face from looking monotonous!

This makes Bai Muhibiscus a little embarrassed, how to answer it doesn't seem appropriate, if she is really stupid, the emperor doesn't believe it, and he will blame her for not telling the truth. If she is fake and stupid, then what she said just now is obviously suspected of deception and boasting!

After thinking about it for a while, Bai Mu Hibiscus said a little embarrassedly: "Actually...... The minister said that this sentence is also a cliché, just like many ministers shouting in front of the emperor that the minister will die, does the emperor really want him to die? At most, one person will die! ”

The emperor nodded, with some appreciation in his eyes, and said: "Sure enough, she is a smart girl, when I saw you last time, it was my cousin Wushuang who was talking, but I never paid attention to you!" ”

Bai Hibiscus didn't speak, just bowed his head slightly, showing the humility he deserved.

The emperor continued: "I don't understand something, since you became famous in one fell swoop at the Hundred Flowers Feast, I specially sent someone to check on you, the first thirteen years, you are indeed like the rumors of the outside world, cowardly, stupid, wooden, even the subordinates dare to bully you, but it seems to have changed overnight, the same person, why is there such a big gap before and after?" No matter how disguised it is, it can't be without the slightest flaw! ”

Bai Muhibiscus was shocked, she didn't expect that the emperor would ask these words directly, she began to think that the emperor was here to question her about the matter in front of the Guogong Mansion, but she didn't expect to dig out the doubts on her body.

But after a while, Bai Mujin was at ease, whether it was her before or now, she was essentially a person. It's just that the one before she lived in lies, ignorant of the world, ignorant and ignorant.

Now she has been tempered in her previous life and baptized by the truth, so she will become like this, she is Bai Hibiscus, and this will not change.

Bai Mujian's face showed a little sadness, and then he slowly knelt down and said: "Please forgive the emperor, in front of the emperor, the minister does not dare to deceive in the slightest, but what the minister wants to say may be appalling, maybe the emperor will think that the minister is not filial, but the minister guarantees that what he said is true!" ”

The emperor frowned slightly, but still spoke: "Although the Tao comes, you should just be a person who listens to stories!" ”

Bai Mujin leaned over and bowed, and then said slowly: "The courtier's daughter lost her mother at the age of three, and her brother was just a baby who fell to the ground, at that time, the minister really didn't know anything, thinking that the stepmother was her own aunt, and she would really be good to the minister and her brother, and she had always respected her like a mother, but it was a pity that ......."

Speaking of this, a sharp light flashed in Bai Hibiscus's eyes, with hatred and pain, as if he had fallen into his own memories, and his voice seemed heavy.

"That's probably the case, in order to survive, in order to keep his brother under the nose of his stepmother, he has to pretend to obey her, and even be as stupid and ignorant as she hoped! The minister also wants to keep pretending, but the stepmother can no longer let the minister grow up safely, and in order to regain the initiative, the minister has to resist. I finally understood that in fact, only when I am strong can I get the desired result, whether it is life or peace and joy, it is never endured, but fought for! ”

Bai Mujin paused before continuing: "No matter what others think of the minister, but the minister has never taken the initiative to hurt others, but he really swears never to let people hurt himself and his brother, and the minister will never be a foolish person. ”

Bai Mujin looked at the emperor who had been silent, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, these words are true and false, seven points true and three points false, probably can be passed.

The emperor sighed before he said, "You didn't lie to me, it's good!" Although some of your ideas are more extreme, not in line with the way of the saints, and even conflict with my purpose of ruling the world with filial piety, ...... Now I just listen to you as an ordinary person, I don't judge, I don't blame you, everyone has their own way to survive, as long as they don't harm others, no one can blame you! ”
