The crown prince Zhu Jingkun looked at the sweat on Zhu Jingshen's forehead, and there were some doubts in his heart: "What's wrong with you?" Feeling unwell? Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the window behind him, and continued his previous steps and walked over.

Zhu Jingshen had just caught a glimpse of Wen Yi's figure disappearing, so he no longer stopped it, but in a flash of thought, an idea suddenly popped up in his mind, and when he took the next step, he blocked the window intentionally or unintentionally, and said with a smile on his face: "Thank you Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince for your concern, I just feel a little hot, probably because the brazier in the house is burning too much, and it is so hot that I sweat all over, so I just ran here to blow the wind." ”

"Oh? Is it? Zhu Jingkun was suspicious, staring at him thoughtfully.

Another sect disciple next to him smiled: "Xiao Shenzi, don't fool His Royal Highness the Prince, just now you are clearly staring at the girl below, what kind of wind are you pretending to be?" ”

Zhu Jingshen's face sank, and the murderous intent flashed in his eyes, but he immediately puffed up his bun face again, and said with a stalk around his neck: "How can there be?" Of course I'm here to blow the wind, you don't talk nonsense there"

The disciple of the sect sneered, and as soon as he stretched out his arm, he hooked Zhu Jingshen's neck, secretly exerted force, and said contemptuously: "Your kid is getting bolder now? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is merciful and allows you to go out of the palace to relax, but you are kicking your nose more and more? I tell you that the beauties in the garden today have no part in you."

Zhu Jingshen struggled desperately, as if he couldn't even breathe, and his little face turned red. Zhu Jingkun looked at it, frowned and reprimanded: "Let him go, he is a child of the clan, he is higher than you in terms of title status, how can you bully him because he is young?" ”

The disciple of the sect was stunned for a moment, and let go of his arm in a daze. Zhu Jingshen immediately jumped two steps away, gasping for breath, and glared at him with resentment in his eyes. The disciple of the sect didn't take it seriously, his eyes just looked at Zhu Jingkun, with a flattering smile on his face: "Your Highness, this little Shenzi has always been the most foolish and rude, why do you want to be so elevated?" ”

Zhu Jingkun secretly scolded this person in his heart for not knowing each other, he was clearly just the grandson of an idle king, but he seemed to be nobler than others, except for pleasing himself all day long, he didn't see any ability, he just looked at his grandfather's face, and was a little polite to him, no matter how bad Zhu Jingshen was, he also held the title of the prince's son, not to mention, at a young age, he could give up the ancestral prince and share his worries, if this person was really loyal to himself, why didn't he let his grandfather give up the throne?

So Zhu Jingkun didn't pay attention to it, but smiled at Zhu Jingshen and said: "Don't be like him, this is your nephew, he doesn't know how to be polite, do you want to be angry with him as an elder?" ”

The disciple of the sect was stunned, and his face turned red, he was indeed younger than Zhu Jingshen in terms of seniority, but his family was the leading figure among the kings of the clan since the time of the first emperor, and when the first emperor and the current emperor ascended the throne, his grandfather had all supported him, how could this newly released crown prince be so rude to him?

Zhu Jingshen lowered his head and didn't speak, he understood what the prince meant, that person was a gentleman who didn't have to worry about, but the prestige of the elders in the family was too high, and the prince also had some scruples. But what does it have to do with him? The crown prince's throne is unstable, so he doesn't care

It's just that the person almost exposed his special attention to Gu Wenyi to the prince, if it weren't for Gu Wenyi walking two steps faster than the prince, I don't know what the result would be, causing him to break out in a cold sweat, this is all the person's fault, if he has no choice, he has to be ruthless......

He was still pondering there, his eyes drooping slightly, and his killing intent was slightly revealed, Zhu Jingkun saw a pang in his heart, and his voice sank a little: "Brother Shen? ”

Zhu Jingshen raised his head, with a little anger in his eyes, but he still glared at the disciple of the sect, pouted and said, "Get out, the prince of this world is not as knowledgeable as you."

The disciples of the sect were furious, but they just got in the way of the prince, gritted their teeth and endured it, but they "rolled" away obediently, and raised their heads to squint at Zhu Jingshen, their eyes full of contempt.

Zhu Jingkun didn't have time to pay attention to such a bad person, he was going to win over the young and middle-aged talents in the clan today, but this bad man didn't get into his eyes, but he hadn't forgotten that Zhu Jingshen was now his person, so he smiled and asked, "Are you really blowing the wind?" It's blowing the wind, but why is there only a small crack in the window? It's really looking at someone, and it doesn't matter, I'm here for this today, just tell me. With that, he stretched out his hand and pushed open the window.

This time, Zhu Jingshen didn't stop it, so he saw it clearly. This window was originally on the edge of the small building, the position was a little more biased, and the ladies in the hugging building could not be taken into the eyes one by one, and only the people at both ends of the hugging building could be seen, and because of the angle, the seats facing the small building could be seen clearly, but on the other side, only a small place at the entrance of the hugging building could be seen. At this time, there was no one there. Therefore, Zhu Jingkun set his eyes on a few seats at this end.

He recognized one of them as Gu Shilang's daughter, and the other was Liu Shangshu's son, and the rest of them were all fresh faces, and he couldn't help but laugh, Liu Dongning, hasn't he always boasted of being outstanding in learning and gentle and polite? How did you get to the women's seat?

He turned his head and asked Zhu Jingshen with a smile: "You will look for a place, which young lady are you looking at?" ”

Without waiting for Zhu Jingshen to answer, the disciple of the sect interjected with bad intentions: "It's a green dress, there are some elegant embroideries on the skirt, and there are not many jewelry on it, but she is a beautiful woman, but it's a pity that she is younger, and she looks like a bamboo pole, and it will take a few more years to see the style." Seeing Zhu Jingshen looking up at himself, his eyes shooting a cold light, he shivered, but he became more and more unconvinced, and sneered: "This woman looks pretty good, although she looks decent and doesn't stand out, but she looks quite stable, and it's still okay to be the wife of the main house." Throughout the ages, they have paid attention to marrying wives and virtuous people, and taking concubines. It's just that I don't know what the family background is, if it's okay, I'll be a little wronged, tell the family, and marry a wife. After saying that, he raised his eyebrows at Zhu Jingshen provocatively.

Zhu Jingshen desperately suppressed the murderous aura in his heart, Zhu Jingkun saw it in his eyes, and couldn't help but think of what he said to himself a few days ago, and knew that it must be his sweetheart, glanced at the disciple of the sect, and said lightly: "Wei Yu, you are becoming more and more unruly now, how can you be so rude in front of your uncle?" Why don't you step down? ”

The disciple of the sect was stunned for a moment, his face was red and white, he glared at Zhu Jingshen angrily, and turned around with a fist salute. Zhu Jingkun smiled and said to Zhu Jingshen: "Don't take it to heart, who doesn't know what kind of character he is?" It's just a joke. If you really want to, just tell me, and I'll make decisions for you. After that, he looked out the window again, and didn't find any of the ladies wearing green dresses, but in a blink of an eye, he saw that on Gu Wenhui's seat, there was a girl wearing a pink jacket and a green skirt, with embroidery on the skirt and not much jewelry on her head, could it be this one? Looking at her age, it seems that she is only twelve or thirteen years old, which is also consistent with what Zhu Weiyu said in his words, "she is too young", and then she looks at her appearance, but she is also delicate and lovely.

He glanced back at the eunuch who was with him, who immediately bent over, pointed downstairs and asked, "Which lady is wearing the green dress?" The latter took a look at it and whispered, "It seems to be the eldest lady of Liu Shangshu's family." After a pause, "It's a concubine." ”

Zhu Jingkun suddenly realized, waved his hand to retreat, then turned back to Zhu Jingshen and smiled: "I see, no wonder you are so troubled, in fact, this young lady has an extraordinary family background, but her background is slightly worse, this is not a big problem." "Think about it, Liu Shangshu is the grandson of the Yao family, and Zhu Jingshen has always been raised in the palace of the queen Yao, probably by chance, right? It is indeed impossible for a concubine to marry Wang Shizi, but if Zhu Jingshen really gives up the prince, the solution is simple, just signal Liu Shangshu and let him record this daughter in the name of his wife. It is not a violation of etiquette for ordinary clan children to marry a "concubine".

Zhu Jingshen's expression was a little complicated. He knew that the crown prince was mistaken, but he couldn't tell Gu Wenyi, so he hesitated for a moment before saying, "Your Highness misunderstood, I'm ...... I really don't like anyone, if I really like it in the future, I will definitely ask His Highness for grace."

Zhu Jingkun smiled, thinking that this cousin is really a child's temper, why is he still stubborn at this time? However, that Miss Liu was indeed a little younger, and after two years, she patted Zhu Jingshen on the shoulder, smiled and said a few words of encouragement, and walked away.

Zhu Jingshen glanced downstairs with a sad face, looking at the lady who was "wearing a green dress", and he didn't know who the other party was, could it be that he really wanted to ...... in the future He shook his head, and remembered the fright and grievances he had received in order to prevent Gu Wenyi from being exposed under the eyes of the prince...... He is not a person who hides his ears and steals the bell, so he asks himself: What kind of existence is Gu Wenyi to him?

Just thinking about it, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Qiu Tan dangling outside the door, hurriedly glanced around, and then tried his best to pretend to be inadvertent, and walked out of the door, just when he met the attendant waiting outside the door to drive Qiu Tan away, he hurriedly shouted: "This is my maidservant, I have something to tell her" Seeing this, the attendant secretly pursed his lips, bowed his head and retreated. He didn't pay attention to it, walked two steps quickly, went down the stairs, and arrived at a corner where no one was around, only then did he echo and ask Qiu Tan who came over: "How is it?" You told her everything, didn't you? ”

Qiu Tan nodded, took out another bracelet, and said a little embarrassedly: "This is Miss Jiu's reward for me, it's so beautiful, Lord Shizi, can I ......"

Zhu Jingshen smiled slightly: "Since she rewarded you, you just put it away." Qiu Tan cheered low and hurriedly put the bracelet on.

Zhu Jingshen looked at it with a sour heart, and said with a smile: "I have nothing to do with you, you go play, just be careful not to collide with people, if you meet a big person, I can't protect you." ”

Qiu Tan hurriedly responded, Zhu Jingshen watched her leave happily, sighed in his heart, and then returned upstairs and sat back in the corner. Watching the prince laugh with everyone, few of the children of this cadre clan remembered today's theme, and only cared about surrounding the prince, he couldn't help but laugh secretly, turned his head, but saw two people standing by the window and looking down, one of them was the grandson of King Lu's mansion, who had always been favored by King Lu, and he didn't know what he was talking to the other person, with a faint word "Gu" in his words.

He was in a pang in his heart, and he was busy listening, but it was the grandson of the palace who was introducing a "lady" to his cousins: "...... I met at the princess...... Steady and quiet, from everyone's ...... Knowledgeable and courteous...... It's a pity that the elders are not happy, and I don't want to go...... What do you see? ”

The other party said: "Since it is for you, how can I intervene?" Besides, her family background is a little insufficient, right? The squire's niece is just a squire, but her father is just a bald jinshi......"

Zhu Jingshen's heart was relieved, he sat back in his place, and glanced downstairs, but saw a maid from another family walking over and saying a few words to Gu Wenxian and the "green skirt girl", they got up and went with her, leaving only Gu Wenhui and Liu Dongning in the banquet. He was suspicious in his heart, but he also knew that today, in addition to the children of all the clans watching people on this small building, there were also princesses and princesses of various mansions in the house, so he didn't think much about it.

However, it didn't take long for the downstairs to open. Someone came to ask Liu Dongning to leave, although he was reluctant, but he was embarrassed to stay in front of everyone, so he had to say goodbye to Gu Wenhui. None of the other ladies were willing to sit at the same table with Gu Wenhui, so she could only sit there alone.

Everyone at the banquet talked and laughed, or recited poems, or joked with each other, or poured wine into each other, so it was not lively. The ladies in the curtain whispered softly, and the male guests who heard it not far away were also itchy, and kept turning their heads to look at the curtain, intending to catch a glimpse of a little light from the crack in the curtain.

But Gu Wenhui just sat alone, Gu Wenxian and the girl in the green dress didn't return for a long time, and the other ladies didn't pay attention to her, just caring about making fun of each other, and she showed a boring expression on her face.

Seeing this, Zhu Jingshen couldn't help but look back at the people behind him who were talking, revealing a wry smile. This Gu Wenhui can be called the same person who has fallen from the end of the world...... He is also boring here, so it is better to take advantage of the fact that everyone is in the banquet and go to the garden to take a walk.

Just as he was about to get up, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a palace maid walking towards Gu Wenhui, whispering a few words, and then taking out a jade pendant from his sleeve to show her. Zhu Jingshen vaguely remembered that Gu Wenxian, who had just left, seemed to be wearing such a jade pendant. I saw Gu Wenhui frowning, glanced at everyone in the banquet, nodded, got up and walked with the maid.

She only walked a few fingers, and another lady came out of the hugging mansion and went in the same direction with the maid, looking at the dress, it seemed to be Zheng Lijun

Zhu Jingshen's heart sank, he stood up suddenly, rushed to the window, watched them from a distance, one after the other, disappeared into the plum forest, and then looked at the people in the hugging building, but no one noticed this.

He stomped his feet, looked back at the people behind him, and found that Zhu Jingcheng, the prince of Dongping, was squeezed to the side by others at some point, and was sitting alone at the wine table drinking, looking at the prince surrounded by everyone with mocking eyes from time to time.

Zhu Jingshen's eyes suddenly lit up, and he thought about it.
