At this time, he stood in the center of the main hall, waiting for the will.

"Xiao Jingyi, the ninth prince of the Ninth Emperor, has made meritorious contributions to pacifying the border fortress, and I decided to make him King Jing, and side a mansion in Xicheng, rewarding 1,000 taels of gold, 2,000 taels of silver, and 1,000 acres of fertile land, and moving out of the palace on the day of the fold."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar.

Xiao Jingheng's face was displeased, Xiao Jingyi's sealing the throne was not a good thing for him.

Although Gu Nuan was happy for him in his heart, when he thought of the days when he left the palace and met in the future, there were many fewer days, and he was half happy and half sad for a while.

"The son thanked his father."

"Besides, I'm making you a wish, I don't know what you want from me?"

"Back to my father, my sons don't need it for the time being."

"It's okay, when you have something to demand in the future, it's not too late to be like me."

Xiao Min waved his hand, Su Weizhong on the side nodded, slowly walked down the steps, spread out the holy decree in his hand, and handed it to Xiao Jingyi's hand.

Great Wei has been in the year, the ninth prince Xiao Jingyi, eighteen years old, fought against the Huns, won a complete victory, as long as three years, during which there were heavy casualties, half of our soldiers were injured, Zhunyang. In the first battle of Shuihe, our 50,000 people against 100,000 people, the Nine Emperors outflanked the enemy army with superb wisdom, and successfully obtained the head of the Xiongnu generals.

During the war, the war achievements are impressive, after returning to Beijing, a celebration banquet was held for it, and given the title of King Jing, a mansion, a thousand taels of gold and silver, a thousand acres of fertile land, and more than 40 servants, and has been included in the history of the late Hai years, is the first person in the history of the Great Wei Dynasty to be crowned king.

After the celebration banquet, Xiao Jingyi moved into the new mansion, and Qing Tanzhi also moved into the mansion with him.

The mansion has a new name - King Jingfu.

When I entered the courtyard, the housekeepers in the house were busy cleaning, and these were the servants rewarded by His Majesty.

The air was filled with dust, Qing Tanzhi covered his mouth and coughed lightly, he had been infected with wind and cold the day before yesterday and had recovered more than half, and now he was able to walk on the ground.

"Take the young lady to the backyard on the west side, where the scenery is pleasant and suitable for recuperation."

Xiao Jingyi turned to the servant and said.

"Yes!"

Qing Tanzhi was supported by Diancui and walked towards the backyard.

"Lord Wang."

A middle-aged man who was nearly forty years old walked in front of Xiao Jingyi and called respectfully.

"You are?"

"The old slave's name is Bai Pu, and he is the housekeeper of this mansion, and he will also be the housekeeper of King Jing's mansion in the future."

"There's a Steward of Laobai."

"The prince laughed, it is the honor of the old slave to be able to serve the prince, if His Royal Highness has nothing to do, the old slave will retire first."

Bai Pu bowed slightly and left.

"Lord Jing, this title sounds a lot more pleasant."

Shi Hui smiled and couldn't help but sigh.

"Poor mouth."

Xiao Jingyi glanced at Shi Hui and snorted.

Shi Hui muttered with some grievances: "My subordinates are happy for His Highness." ”

Xiao Jingyi stayed in King Jing's Mansion, and the palace in the palace was empty, and he rarely had time to return to the palace.

After being crowned king, His Majesty ordered him to follow the prince to the early court, and he was very busy.

After a few days, Xiao Jingyi did not marry any wives and concubines, but there was a beautiful woman living in this house.

One day, Gu Nuan played with Bai Ruoshui in the suburbs, and followed a lot of maidservants.

They went to the most famous scenic spot in the suburbs, Peach Blossom Spring.

Bai Shangshu wanted to let his daughter go out of the house to breathe, which was conducive to her condition, but she couldn't accompany her, so she could only ask Gu Nuan to accompany her.

Bai Ruoshui pretended to be sick for a long time, even if he was not sick before, he was afraid of being tired and sick, Gu Nuan was also worried in his heart, and agreed without thinking about it.

The forest trail is surrounded by a large peach blossom forest, with a lot of peach petals falling on the ground, and a small pool of clear springs not far away.

Because of the topography, the peach blossoms here are undefeated all year round, like spring all year round, and the scenery is beautiful.

You can faintly see the fish swimming in the water and the rocks at the bottom of the pool.

The sunlight shines through the dense layers of foliage, and the ground is covered with sparkling spots the size of copper coins, swaying back and forth with the breeze, making bursts of rustling sound.

There was a pavilion at the end of the peach blossom forest, and the two of them slowly walked up the steps, and Bai Ruoshui raised his hand and waved away the maid beside him.

In the pavilion, the two sat opposite each other.

The scenery here is pleasant and refreshing.

There are many birds in the forest that make a crisp chirping sound, and occasionally fly over the treetops and swim in the forest.

The tinkling of the spring water, and the fish float on the surface of the water from time to time, spitting bubbles.

Wildflowers bloom on the nearby lawn, attracting a lot of butterflies.

The two sat opposite each other for a long time.

In the end, it was Bai Ruoshui who opened his mouth first, and asked in a tentative tone, "The woman in King Jing's Mansion, do you know?" ”

"Yes."

"Now that I know, I can still sit here calmly and enjoy the scenery with me. You are really so relieved of that King Jing. ”

Bai Ruoshui was a little surprised, and said half-jokingly.

"Sister, why did you say that today?"

Gu Nuan was slightly stunned, but asked leisurely.

Bai Ruoshui smiled, pursed the corners of his lips, and then said, "The purse embroidered last time was given to him." ”

Gu Nuan's face turned slightly red, he was silent for a while, nodded slowly, answered lightly, and then asked with some curiosity: "How did my sister know that I gave him the purse." ”

Bai Ruoshui pursed her lips and was silent, just now she was just cocking the words in her mouth, who knew that this was the case.

A few days ago, Gu Nuan chased after her and asked her to teach her to embroider purses, and she vaguely found that something was wrong, and then she heard Lu Yi occasionally mention the Nine Emperor Princes who were far away in front of her once or twice in front of her, and the more sure she was of the answer in her heart, but she couldn't confirm it.

"You haven't answered my question yet."

"I believe in Him."

Gu Nuan responded categorically.

Bai Ruoshui smiled indifferently, and then asked, "Then let me ask you, what if he marries that woman as a concubine?" ”

"I'm sure he won't."

Gu Nuan was stunned, but still chose to believe him.

"Since ancient times, men have been affectionate people, not to mention that as a royal family, it is normal for him to have three wives and four concubines, how can you guarantee that even if you look old, he still loves you."

Gu Nuan didn't know how to answer for a while, and to this day, she hadn't thought about these things.

"Sister, what's wrong today?"

Realizing that his words were a bit excessive, his eyes were full of apologies, and then explained.

"Nuan Nuan is pure by nature, my marriage can't be my own decision, I just hope you can't follow in my footsteps and find you a lover who loves you."

"Sister, don't worry, you and I will be looking for a good person."

Gu Nuan stepped forward and grabbed Bai Ruoshui's hand and said firmly.

Perhaps Bai Ruoshui's words played a role, Gu Nuan decided to go to King Jing's Mansion in person.

King Jing's Mansion.

"Miss, you have just recovered from your illness, so you should not go out and walk around."

"It's okay, just walk around this yard."

Qingtan is dressed in a plain and elegant outfit, and only a plain hairpin is decorated on his head, without powder, and his face is pale, but he still can't cover his beautiful face.

Shi Hui opened the door and said with a surprised face: "County Lord, why are you?" ”

"Why, look at your tone as if you don't welcome me?"

"That's not true, it's just that Your Highness went to the court early today."

Gu Nuan glanced at him and muttered, "Who said I came to him?" ”

"Then the county lord, you are ......"

"I'm here to find the girl in the house, I had some conflicts with her last time, and I came to apologize."

Shi Hui was startled, and a heart in her throat gradually eased.

"Miss is in the backyard, the county lord will come with me."

The newly planted trees in the yard have pulled out new shoots, and the scenery of the West Garden is indeed true, and there are many new flowers in the yard, all of which have just been transplanted from elsewhere.

"It's you again, what are you doing here?"

Diancui was the first to see Gu Nuan, and said in a very unhappy tone.

Seeing Gu Nuan, Qing Tanzhi was slightly stunned.

"Don't be rude."

Diancui snorted, then stepped back behind her.

Maybe he knew about Qing Tanzhi's old affairs, and Gu Nuan was not angry,

"Miss Qing, Jing Yi told me about you, I'm sorry for the facts last time, please don't mind Miss."

Jing Yi! In such an intimate tone, Qing Tanzhi bit his lip tightly, and forced a smile: "The county lord said that he was laughing, a trivial matter, in the final analysis, Tan Zhi was abrupt." ”

Gu Nuan took her hand affectionately and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will tell Jing Yi to find a good home for you." ”

Qing Tanzhi smiled stiffly, and quietly withdrew his hand.

"The little girl's business is not a matter for the county lord."

Sensing Qing Tanzhi's estrangement, Gu Nuan touched his nose with some embarrassment, and didn't know how to answer for a while.

was embarrassed, when he heard the noise outside, he thought that Xiao Jingling was back, Gu Nuan's face was happy, and he was about to run out, Qingtan's eyes moved slightly, and he gestured to the Diancui next to him.

only heard a bang, Gu Nuan turned around, and saw Qing Tanzhi sitting on the ground, thinking that he had fallen just now.

"Are you alright?"

Gu Nuan trotted over and stretched out her hand to signal Qing Tanzhi to take her hand and stand up.

Qing Tanzhi shook her head weakly, put one hand on it, got up halfway, only to see her fall back with an exclamation, Gu Nuan couldn't react, but a figure flashed in first.

"Are you alright?"

Xiao Jingling caught Qing Tanzhi and frowned.

"I ...... I'm fine. ”

Qingtan's face turned red, and he hurriedly pushed Xiao Jingling away and stood up.

Looking at the scene in front of him fixedly, Gu Nuan's hand hidden under his sleeve tightened and was silent.

"Nuan Nuan, what happened just now?"

Seeing Xiao Jingling asking, Gu Nuan was about to answer, but Qing Tanzhi spoke first.

"Just now, Tan Zhi accidentally fell by himself, and Sister Gu Nuan wanted to come over and pull me, but I didn't expect that my strength was too small, but I pulled it down again."

Obviously it was an explanation, but it sounded so unpleasant, Gu Nuan frowned, and responded: "If there is nothing to do, I will leave, so as not to get in the way here." ”

After saying this, without waiting for the reaction of the two, he turned around and left.

A smug expression flashed on Qing Tanzhi's face, and he was about to ask for warmth, but Xiao Jingling also left, not looking at her much from beginning to end.

Qing Tanzhi stood in place, the expression on his face cloudy.
