"Sister-in-law? You...... Not happy? The ninth princess held her face, looking at her sister-in-law who had just "picked up" from the imperial garden, and her somewhat round face was full of confusion.

"Nope." Li Xiang came back to his senses, turned his head, smiled slightly, and lightly tapped the ninth princess's handwriting with his index finger, "The princess has not been written yet." ”

The ninth princess immediately wilted, and continued to write pitifully.

The concubine herself writes an excellent line of letters, it is said that the Seventh Highness is also a thin gold body that no one can compare, but the words of the ninth princess are not written well, yes, the concubine ordered to write a hundred words a day, but you must find out ten well-written, this "well-written" has to be said by the concubine to count.

Just now, the ninth princess just didn't want to write, and the female official who was pestering her was going out to play, but she happened to bump into Li Xiang, who had already circled three times in place, and the female officer saw that it was still early, and the ninth princess seemed to like Li Xiang very much, so she begged her to watch the ninth princess write.

But half an hour has passed, and Li Xiang didn't see what font the Ninth Princess wrote at all, not at all like the line of the noble concubine, let alone the thin gold body of the Seventh Highness.

The ninth princess made a bitter face, continued to write stroke by stroke, and paused after writing a word, and the ink was about to drip down the tip of the pen.

Li Xiang couldn't stand it anymore, "Princess, you're ...... Didn't the concubine write a picture for you? ”

"Yes!"

“…… Where is it? ”

The ninth princess put down her pen and opened the drawer under the desk with a bang, and there was a folded paper in it.

"Princess, if you want to write it like this, you can't put it in a drawer." Li Xiang looked back, the palace maid who usually serves pen and ink is no longer here, but there is a person who pours tea and water, but just now he was also taken away by the ninth princess on the grounds of "wanting to eat horseshoe cake".

"I ...... I forgot ......" The ninth princess scratched her head, her little face flushed, and she tore out the piece of paper and successfully tore a hole.

Li Xiang watched the whole process, but he didn't have time to help, but it can be regarded as what the "recklessness" and "manners" mentioned by the real concubine are the problems.

"Princess, this ......" Li Xiang took the word and slowly unfolded it, it turned out to be in block letters, too, this is the best practice, horizontal is horizontal and vertical, you have to write one stroke at a time, it seems that it is indeed the most suitable for the ninth princess, but it is ......

Why is the ninth princess crying?

"Princess? What's wrong? Li Xiang was confused, she didn't know how to deal with children at all, she looked as if she was more panicked than the ninth princess, "Princess, don't cry...... What's there, tell your sister-in-law, okay? ”

"This ...... This is...... Mother ...... Written ......" The ninth princess pulled her face, with a pool of tears, which may fall at any time, and said with a sob.

Li Xiang knew it, thinking that it was because of the concubine's control of the ninth princess on weekdays, and now this piece of paper is torn, not to mention the reprimand, I am afraid that it will be talked about by the concubine, I am afraid that it is also because of this, the ninth princess knows that this thin piece of paper is easy to damage, so she did not take it out.

"Why don't we write another one?"

"The ...... of the mother's punishment"

"Then don't let her find out."

The ninth princess's eyes lit up, and she immediately laid out the paper neatly, and looked at Li Xiang with burning eyes.

Li Xiang's scalp is numb, she has no sister, and there is a sister in her sister-in-law's mother's house within five suits, who is not very familiar, holding the pen, and carefully reading the words of the concubine, the concubine herself wrote the line, the block letters on this piece of paper, written very neatly, more like the master wrote, Li Xiang breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly glad that the concubine did not bring her own pen style and used just ordinary rice paper.

Silently picked up the pen, finished writing it, and turned her head, the ninth princess pursed her lips and stared at her words, the corners of her mouth raised.

Li Xiang compared it again, he didn't see anything different, so he gave up, the ghost envoy touched the head of the ninth princess, looked over the ninth princess and looked out, was stunned for a moment, immediately withdrew his hand, and said softly: "Princess, try it yourself, see if I can't write, your wrist is weak, take your time." ”

As he spoke, Li Xiang took a few steps back, stood on the side of the desk, and motioned for the Ninth Princess to try it herself.

The ninth princess blinked her eyes, eager to try, only three or two words were written, and a leisurely footstep came, as if walking in her own yard, the kind that can tease a bird.

Li Xiang didn't say a word, the ninth princess looked up, and immediately threw the pen, "Brother!" ”

"I've seen Your Highness." Li Xiang turned his head at this time, and hurriedly bowed his head to salute, as far as his eyes could see, there was only a white corner of his clothes, on which there were a few plum blossoms with dark lines, faintly red, just like what she saw at the door just now.

Murong Jin looked at his little princess, who was teaching his sister to fool his mother, and silently looked at the words on the desk.

"The female officer said that you took your sister-in-law away."

"yes!" The ninth princess "confessed" with an innocent face.

"What time is it?" Murong Jin looked at her sister and asked.

"It's three quarters!" The ninth princess hasn't understood yet, but Li Xiang understands, the inner palace gate is closed at two o'clock in summer, and the inner palace gate is closed at two o'clock in winter, but once the inner palace door is closed, the harem can't enter and exit at all, and after the palace gate is keyed, unless there is an oracle and a token, you can't get out at all. Two gates, one restricts concubines, princesses, and female officials from staying outside, and the other restricts foreign ministers from facing the holy affairs without affecting the emperor's rest, let alone staying in the palace for a long time.

The princess's palace is in the spring garden, located in the northeast corner of the imperial garden, and there is only one imperial garden distance from the harem, and the inner palace gate is also restricting them.

In other words, if Li Xiang doesn't leave, he will have to stay in the palace tonight, maybe there will be any punishment, and what it is, Li Xiang doesn't know very well.

"The palace gate is about to fall, and your sister-in-law will come to accompany you another day, how about it?" Murong Jin glanced at the words of the ninth princess and looked away.

The ninth princess realized this problem, opened her eyes wide, and stopped talking, and then, nodded obediently, and pushed the two of them out as she spoke.

"Sister-in-law, when are you coming next?" The ninth princess has a lot of strength, Li Xiang was helped a few times, and he didn't have time to be surprised and even didn't have time to dodge, he had already let go, and the two were urged, and soon out of the princess hall, the nine princesses were still asking.

Li Xiang pursed his lips and raised a smile, "Soon, the princess misses me, just send someone to say no?" ”

The Ninth Princess nodded heavily and waved at them.

The sky is getting dark, spring has not yet arrived, but the day has begun to gradually lengthen, there are not many palace people on the road, and the palace maids who lead the way have even lit lanterns.

The figure was obliquely long, and Li Xiang honestly took half a step back, not far or close to follow Murong Jin.

"Ling'er can't write well, and the mother concubine has been suffering for a long time." Murong Jin spoke to himself, then paused, Li Xiang also paused, and was silent for a long time, Murong Jin took half a step back, and then spoke again, "She likes you very much." ”
