When the group returned to Jingting, the capital of Jinguo, it was already twenty days later, and Jun Linyu actually followed here.

Mu Xiaoxiao didn't care who wanted to come, anyway, she just wanted Mu Hibiscus to come. Gao Zhao decided to go back to the palace first, and instructed Zhuo Feng to arrange their accommodation.

Gao Zhao looked at Mu Xiaoxiao: "You have been away for a few months, and the people in the bamboo garden will not forget it, right?"

Mu Xiaoxiao didn't want to go back to the palace, but when she thought of Rong Qing, she was really embarrassed not to go back. Rong Qing has always treated her well, she smiled and said, "No, I, I'll go back with your old man now." After speaking, he turned his head to Mu Hibiscus and said, "I want to go back first, and when I discuss it with Qingqing, I will go out of the palace to accompany you." ”

Hibiscus didn't expect her to say such a thing, a smile appeared on her faint face, and she nodded slightly.

Mu Xiaoxiao got into Gao Zhao's carriage back to the palace and returned to the palace.

Wufeng only felt that Mu Xiaoxiao's consciousness was probably not reserved, and Mu Hibiscus listened to the sentence I will accompany you, and his heart was full of joy. The most depressed is probably Gao Zhao.

Along the way, Gao Zhao lowered his eyes, his long eyelashes made it difficult to see his emotions, the atmosphere was a little tense, Mu Xiaoxiao moved her body, and just as she was thinking about what to say, Gao Zhao's deep voice sounded

"You said you were going out of the palace to accompany Mu Gongzi?" his voice was lazy, and he couldn't hear any emotion.

Mu Xiaoxiao immediately became alert: "I thought that I hadn't seen Mu Hibiscus for a long time, so I went out of the palace to accompany him for a few days, and I didn't come back." She looked at Gao Zhao cautiously.

Gao Zhao had a trace of anger in his heart: What do you mean to accompany you? Do you still have to live there at night? He had no expression on his face: "Since ancient times, women have not been able to do men's affairs in private before they leave the pavilion, what kind of escort method are you doing with 、、、?" Gao Zhao raised his eyes and looked at her.

Mu Xiaoxiao heard that it was because of this reason that he was yin and yang, and couldn't help but say boldly: "I'm a man now, and people outside don't know that I'm a woman, I'm only going out for a few days, besides, Hibiscus will stay for a few days." ”

"What do you mean, does it sound like you're going to stay there at night?" Gao Zhao's face showed displeasure!

Mu Xiaoxiao listened to the questions in his words, as if she was very concerned about where she lived at night, she thought about it, and finally understood what Gao Zhao meant: Yes, he is a dignified prince, if others know, the people around him go out of the palace without permission, often go out of the palace, and then people think that he has collusion with the outside of the palace, it will affect him.

She felt that she was really a pig teammate, and in order not to make Gao Zhao think that she and the five princes were in a group, she had to show sincerity, so she made a plan.

"Your Highness, this time King Luo Zhen of the Snow Country suddenly visited, you must have a lot of important things to discuss, right?

Gao Zhao saw that her body leaned forward, lying slightly towards herself, the distance between the two of them could see herself in each other's eyes, Mu Xiaoxiao saw that Gao Zhao didn't speak, she laughed out loud with a "poof".

"You have me in your eyes. She sat up straight, and said something to the horse's mouth.

Gao Zhao lowered his eyes, and when he looked up, he saw Mu Xiaoxiao looking out the window and said, "In order not to embarrass your old man, I decided to give you a job during the day, and you will occasionally give you a day off, so can I go out of the palace for a walk?" Mu Xiaoxiao looked at him with a sincere face.

Gao Zhao clenched his fist with his hand, coughed lightly, and said, "That's very good." ”

When she returned to the palace, she went straight to the bamboo garden, saw the orange light in the house, pushed the door, and shouted: "Qingqing!"

Rong Qing, who was reading a book, raised her head, and when she saw that it was her, she said happily: "Are you back?" Qian Yuandai, who was grinding on the side, also walked towards her with a happy smile.

"The girl is back, and we all thought you were really missing and couldn't come back. Qian Yuan Dai said worriedly.

"How did you know I was missing?" Mu Xiaoxiao pulled Rong Qing's sleeve and sat down.

"Worry-free has been walking back and forth in the palace recently, and he is close to the Zhuo family. Rong Qing poured her a glass of water.

"Oh, I said. It's okay, it's okay, who am I, I'm a Xiaoqiang who can't be killed, it's strong. She ran out of water in the cup in one gulp, and said, "This bamboo leaf tea really feels like home." ”

"I don't know if I feel at home and come back early!" Worry-free walked in with a serious face, he is now a commander of the Imperial Forest Army in the palace, wearing black soft armor and a red scarf, looking majestic and extraordinary.

Mu Xiaoxiao hurriedly poured a glass of water for Wu Wu, and flattered him, then took the sword in his hand and handed it to Qian Yuan Dai in the back.

"Aren't I busy, His Highness has given me such an important task, I am going to go to the soup and fire, it is my duty!" she made exaggerated movements generously.

"How did I hear that it was Mu Gongzi who came to Jingting, and you still said that you would go out of the palace to accompany Gongzi for a few days?"

Mu Xiaoxiao was speechless for a while, then looked at Qian Yuandai and Rong Qing who looked surprised, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding!"

"Misunderstanding? The outstanding Zhuo Feng brothers who were outside the carriage today heard it clearly. He deliberately put down the glass with a sad expression.

"It must have been Zhuo Feng's words! Why is he such a gossip when 、、、、、、he is a man?" she clenched her fists angrily, and looked at Rong Qing with a shocked face.

"Qingqing, you all misunderstood what I meant, this companion has nothing to do with the relationship between men and women, oh no, they won't sleep together、、、 uh、、、。 The more she painted, the darker it became, and Rong Qing's face sank.

"Xiaoxiao!" Rong Qing interrupted her words: "This is Jinguo, women must be reserved and reserved, so as to ensure that they do not have any handle in the hands of others, I can see that you may help His Highness to unify the great cause in the future, you must think before doing anything, and you must prepare before you speak, otherwise you will get into big trouble." Qingqing reasoned with her.

Mu Xiaoxiao looked strange: "Qingqing, you used to be so cold, but you have only been down the mountain for a few years, and you have become a layman." After speaking, he laughed out loud.

Rong Qing's face was flushed, and Qian Yuandai on the side smiled and said, "Girl, worry-free said that you will come back in a few days, I have already cleaned your room again, you go and freshen up first." After saying that, he took her arm.

"Kite, can you call me Xiaoxiao in the future?" she asked as she walked.

"Yes, yes, Xiaoxiao, okay!" the two sang out the door.

"She seems to like Mu Gongzi very much. Rong Qing looked bold.

"It is happiness to have people you like. Carefree said lightly.

Rong Qing's face was red, but he still looked worried: "Mu Gongzi、、、、、、。 ”

"Mu Gongzi will return to Jin Country with his true identity in the future to restore his family's reputation. Carefree turned to look at him.

Mu Xiaoxiao got up before dawn the next day, did gymnastics, ran around the yard a few times, sweated, and then went back to the room, scrubbed his body and changed his clothes, and just out of the room, he saw his father-in-law standing there smiling and Mimi beside him.

"Father-in-law Lu. Mu Xiaoxiao shouted.

"Xiaoxiao, the miscellaneous family invited you to Wutong Palace today on the orders of His Royal Highness. He smiled.

Mu Xiaoxiao'"Oh" sounded, and said to Qian Yuan Dai behind him: "Leave me a few pieces of osmanthus cake you made." ”

Xiao Luzi covered his mouth and chuckled: "The osmanthus cake in this Wutong Palace is even more fragrant and glutinous, and this is made by Chen Shanggong, the master of Iris Dai." ”

"Wow, then I'm really mouthful. The two arrived at Wutong Palace together, and outside the hall stood Zhuo Zhuo and Zhuo Feng, Mu Xiaonunu pointed to Zhuo Feng who lowered his head, and the latter looked at his feet with a weak heart.

Gao Zhao sat next to the bookcase, but sat at a table full of delicious food, and was reading a book when he heard footsteps, and he raised his eyes to look at Mu Xiaoxiao.

"Your Highness is auspicious!" Mu Xiaoxiao bowed rarely.

"You're well-behaved today, sit down. Gao Zhao put down the book in his hand, picked up the water on the table and took a sip of it.

Mu Xiaoxiao looked at the saliva on the table, Xiao Luzi stood aside and looked at her, and couldn't help but laugh secretly, just as she was fighting against the gluttony in her stomach, Chen Shanggong brought the last dish to the table.

"Your Royal Highness, this is called turning chicken into a charred outside and tender inside, and the taste is put in the bone marrow, although it is not too suitable to eat it early, it can also be used as a meal. After Chen Shanggong finished speaking, he bowed and retreated.

Gao Zhao didn't move, he drank the water in the cup elegantly.

Mu Xiaoxiao only felt that her saliva was about to come out, this time she went out, she hadn't eaten authentic Tianjin dishes for a long time, she swallowed her saliva, looked up and smiled pleasantly: "Your Highness, aren't you hungry?"

"Are you hungry?" Gao Zhao looked at her nonchalantly.

"It's kind of 、、、、、、。 Mu Xiaoxiao said honestly.

"This dish was originally prepared for you, and if you eat this dish today, just help Bengong do something. Gao Zhao looked calculating.

"No problem, it's my honor to run errands for His Highness. After Mu Xiaoxiao finished speaking, he looked at the table with an expectant expression and said, "Can I eat?"

"Drink a glass of water before eating. Xiao Luzi poured her a glass of water.

"You go down. Gao Zhao said.

Xiao Luzi answered and retreated.

Gao Zhao looked at Mu Xiaoxiao, who was eating osmanthus cake, and just wanted to ask her if she liked sweets very much, but before she swallowed the osmanthus cake, she tore off a chicken leg and bit it, and she looked like she hadn't eaten for several lifetimes.

When she was satisfied, Gao Zhao said, "Today you go to the Jiedu envoy to help the palace welcome King Luo Zhen." ”

Mu Xiaoxiao was stunned: "Isn't this the official's business? What am I going to do?"

"You can only go to this thing, and you will know when you go. With that, he picked up a yellow decree from the bookcase and handed it to her.

"This is what I asked my father to ask for, you will be a four-rank civil official in the future, specializing in managing the diplomatic affairs of Wutong Palace. Gao Zhao called Xiaoluzi, turned around and sat down next to the bookcase.

Xiaoluzi who came in was followed by three palace maids, one of whom was holding a set of red and black official clothes in her hand, and held it respectfully in front of Mu Xiaoxiao.

The other two took the table, and several retreated.

"You went and changed your clothes and showed them to Hongu. Gao Zhao picked up the book and read it again.

Mu Xiaoxiao only felt that this was in the palace, and it was a little inappropriate to change clothes, so he smiled and said: "Your Highness, this is your palace, isn't it good to change here?"

"This palace is not disgusted, you have a lot of opinions, it is better for you to change it outside the door. Gao Zhao raised his eyes to look at her and said expressionlessly.

"How so? I'm going to change it. Mu Xiaoxiao hugged her clothes and walked behind the gauze tent.

When she walked inside, she found that this was the dormitory where Gao Zhao was resting, she put her clothes on the collapse, untied the white men's clothes on her body, and changed into official clothes.
