In front of her was Gao Zhao, who stared at her with a smile in his eyes.

Mu Xiaoxiao looked at Qianshu and Luoyun who were kneeling on the ground with a confused face, they were too unrighteous to remind the prince when the year came.

She blinked her eyes twice, and immediately smiled: "Your Highness, are you done with your old man?"

Gao Zhao didn't seem to hear her words, and said lightly: "You will be gone for three days, and the grass in the bamboo garden of the palace will bury people!"

"That's right, it's not a friend getting married, it's a little busy, a little busy. She laughed.

"My friend is married, what are you making a fuss about? Hurry back to the bamboo garden, go back to the palace and check it at night. After speaking, He Wuxin walked in the direction of the East Palace.

"Hey, hey, you're really not interesting!, the prince is here, and you don't even say a word, it's too meaningless!" she complained as she looked at the two of them who got up.

Luoyun has always been cold-talking, she still stood expressionlessly, but she was a little more lively, and she said with a smile: "We didn't have time, Your Highness is right in front of us." After speaking, she gossiped a little and said, "You were thinking about men just now, right?"

Mu Xiaoxiao looked embarrassed: "What nonsense! How can I think of a man?"

"And said no, even His Highness heard it just now, but he didn't pierce you! Say, who is that man? Which son, is he good-looking?"

"Oh, you don't say it's not, you care so much, say, is your little girl's heart also rippling? You just have to tell me, which family's son-in-law!" Mu Xiaoxiao asked her rhetorically, and when she saw that the little girl blushed even more, she covered her mouth and snickered.

"Enough of you two! don't look at what kind of place this is?" said Luoyun, who had not spoken all this time.

Mu Xiaoxiao and Qianshu stood solemnly again, glanced at each other, and smiled silently.

After a long time, Gao Yunzhi and Xiaoxiang walked out of the council hall, followed by Fu Huairou, who looked like a little daughter-in-law.

"Lord Wang, can I say a few words to Madame?" Mu Xiaoxiao said to Gao Yundao.

"Then the king will be waiting for you in the back garden!" Gao Yunzhi said to Xiaoxiang.

Xiaoxiang nodded, and then pulled Mu Xiaoxiao to the double door.

"Xiangxiang, now that you have fulfilled your wish, it is time for me to go back to Zhuyuan. Mu Xiaoxiao said to her.

Xiaoxiang thought about it and said, "It's okay, if there is something that needs you in the future, I hope you can help me." ”

Don't overthink it and spend your honeymoon just yet. Mu Xiaoxiao teased her.

After saying goodbye to Xiaoxiang, she returned to Zhuyuan. Rong Qing was about to eat, and when she saw her coming back, she said to Wuwu: "Xiaoxiao is back, fill another bowl of rice." ”

Without waiting to get up, Qian Yuan Dai on the side took a small bowl and put it on the table, after two months of getting along, she and Mu Xiaoxiao quickly got acquainted with each other, there is no class distinction in Zhuyuan, so they have been eating at the same table.

Mu Xiaoxiao looked at Rong Qing and Wuwu, and the two of them looked calm. Rong Qing saw that she didn't move her chopsticks, so she said, "Won't you eat if you look so good today?"

"Poof!" Mu Xiaoxiao couldn't hold back: "This is the first time you've praised someone, right?" After speaking, he looked at Wu Wu: "Am I good-looking today?"

Wu Wu glanced at her and picked up the bowl and took a few bites, Mu Xiao glanced at him, and deliberately joked at Rong Qing: "I've never seen Wu Wu have a heart for any woman, could it be that he likes men?"

Rong Qing's always calm face showed a trace of astonishment, and Mu Xiaoxiao on the side suddenly had a fleeting thought. She smiled and said, "Today's dish is really full of color and aroma, let me taste it." She stuffed a dish in her mouth, lowered her head and pulled the rice, and the atmosphere was a little silent for a while.

The afternoon sun is very comfortable, Mu Xiaoxiao is sleepy on the hanging chair in the yard, Qian Yuan Dai took a fan to cover some sunlight, this hanging chair is still worry-free according to the design of Mu Xiao. I personally went up the mountain to find wood to make it. Rong Qing was reading a book on the side, occasionally glancing at Mu Xiaoxiao with his eyes closed.

She was much whiter than when she first saw her, her hair was much longer, and she wasn't as thin as before, and thinking about such a peaceful time in the bamboo garden was much more interesting than the days on the Nine Mountains. Adopted by his master since he was a child, if it weren't for Xiaoxiang's appearance, he might have to stay on Jiuju Mountain for the rest of his life. Now, although he is in the palace, he doesn't have too many troubles, and the prince's bamboo garden may be the most quiet place in the palace.

Someone pushed the door, and when Rong Qing saw it, Gao Zhaozheng walked over, followed by Wuxin and Zhuo Feng.

Gao Zhao saw at a glance Mu Xiaoxiao, dressed in blue, on the hanging chair, she was curled up there, her long hair hanging down in a mess, and the spring sun was exceptionally warm, shining on her somewhat pale face, gilding her surroundings with a soft white light.

Rong Qing stood up, he and Qian Yuan Dai were about to salute, Gao Zhao motioned for him to be quieter, Rong Qing was stunned, looked at Mu Xiaoxiao again, and sat down again.

Qian Yuandai came out with tea, and took Go from the house and put it on the table.

She has been serving in the East Palace since she was twelve years old, and it has been ten years, so she knows Gao Zhao's living habits very well. Sure enough, Gao Zhao picked up the sunspot and put it on the chessboard.

Rong Qing put the book aside, and the two began to fight, and soon, Gao Zhao won a game, and Rong Qing was not angry, the most important thing in playing chess is scheming, and people who play scheming are always much better than lazy people like him. The two of them took the pieces and started the second game.

Mu Xiaoxiao slept a lot, and then woke up, she opened her eyes and looked at the cloak on her body, sat up slowly, and opened her mouth very unsightly, and yawned widely: "Qingqing, when is it now?" Rong Qing, who was playing chess, looked sideways at her lazy appearance, and did not answer her words, but put away the chess pieces.

"It's Shen time. Gao Zhao said calmly.

As soon as the lazy Mu Xiaoxiao heard Gao Zhao's voice, she turned her head to look at him: "Why are you here?" She remembered that she was going to be a bridesmaid to send Xiaoxiang to marry, I don't know if Gao Zhao would be sad? And they all said that the emperor's family was suspicious, although she did not promise Xiaoxiang to help her seize the throne, but in the eyes of outsiders, she and Xiaoxiang were already in a group, thinking of this, her heart beat a drum, she slowly stood up, and looked at Gao Zhao carefully.

Gao Zhao only felt that she was a little restrained today, and even described herself as you, which shows how absent-minded she is.

Looking at her dress today, he felt a little clear in his heart, and he said lightly: "Today is quite a woman's coquettish taste, although she looks like a little girl, she also has the innocence of a woman." ”

Mu Xiaoxiao was worried and uncomfortable, but when she heard Gao Zhao actually boasting about herself, she was speechless for a while, so she laughed to herself: "Your Highness, is that me you praised?"

As soon as Gao Zhao heard that she called her His Royal Highness again, he was also a little happy in his heart, and he said lightly: "This palace has something to tell you today." ”

"Oh, then you old man. Mu Xiaoxiao sat up straight, her eyes staring straight at Gao Zhao.

"This palace is going out of the palace to do business, which of you wants to go with this palace. Gao Zhao took a sip of tea,

"Out of the palace?" Mu Xiaoxiao looked happy: "Where are you going?" she looked forward to it.

"The small countries in the east have repeatedly violated the people on our borders, and this palace wants to find out what's going on. Gao Zhao patiently explained.

"I'm going!" Kikojo raised his hand.

"You have food and drink in the palace, and you have suffered a little when you go there. Gao Zhao said deliberately.

Mu Xiaoxiao was unconvinced when she heard this: "I have suffered a lot, how can I still be afraid of suffering?"

Gao Zhao didn't speak, a pair of eyes swept over Mu Xiaoxiao, who was excited, intentionally or unintentionally, and the latter's two eyes only flashed with golden light.

"Aren't you afraid of hardship?" Gao Zhao asked again.

"Don't be afraid, I'm not afraid of any hardship?" Mu Xiaoxiao looked confident.

"If there is a war there、、、、、、"

"I'm not afraid of war, you can take me with you!" she unconsciously lied.

Gao Zhao nodded: "In this way, the palace has no choice but to take you with me." ”

Rong Qing looked at Mu Xiaoxiao's happy face, but there was a trace of worry. He said softly: "This small country has come to harass our country many times in the past year, and this battle is inevitable, so you should be extra careful when you go." ”

"Qingqing, are you going to come with us this time?" Mu Xiaoxiao asked Rong Qing on the side.

"Your Highness has been gone for a long time, and I need to stay in the palace. Rong Qing said lightly.

Mu Xiaoxiao sighed and stopped talking.

Gao Zhao looked disappointed at her, and said again: "Although Rong Qing can't go, he has the eyes of him in the palace as the main palace, and the palace is very relieved." Otherwise, if someone takes advantage of the absence of the palace to cause some trouble, if the palace can't know in time, I'm afraid that my life will be in danger. ”

As soon as Mu Xiaoxiao heard him say this, he remembered Xiaoxiang's words again, the fifth prince and Xiaoxiang are now grasshoppers on a rope, in order for himself to survive in the future, Xiaoxiang can definitely do anything. Thinking of this, she felt a little guilty again, so she smiled and said, "Your Highness is right in everything, I will follow your old man well." ”

Gao Zhao chuckled lightly and did not speak again.
