Chapter 14: The Infatuated Princess

The slightest dense murmur disturbed the silence of the dark night, and brought a chill, but it did not disturb those who had already fallen asleep in the slightest.

"The silver candle autumn light is cold, and the small fan flutters fireflies.

The night is as cool as water, lying down to see the morning glory Vega. ”

The majestic Forbidden City, the splendid palaces and buildings, are also shrouded in dense rain nets. Under the exquisite, bright palace lamp, there stood a slender figure, she tilted her head and let the fine raindrops rag on her delicate face. The cold wind swept her clothes and hair, like a fairy in the clouds.

A palace maid approached with an umbrella: "Princess, what's wrong with you, you ran outside in the middle of the night to get drenched in the rain, and suddenly chanted this poem, which describes the concubines and concubines who were left in the harem by the emperor in the cold." You are a golden branch and jade leaf, your status is noble, Your Majesty and His Royal Highness King Yu can hold you in the palm of your hand and protect you! ”

"It's nothing, it's just that when I see Vega, I feel it in my heart!"

"This, where can I see Vega?"

didn't respond to the palace maid's words, still looked up at the sky, and said leisurely: "Actually, the Weaver Girl is very happy, although she can only see the Cowherd once a year, but they love each other, and the people she loves are thinking about her, and they are looking forward to the annual meeting together, which is really enviable!" ″

There was a sound of footsteps from far and near, and after seeing the person who came, the palace maid hurriedly stepped forward to salute: "See Your Highness." The person who came was Yuwang Zhu Zaikun.

"Third Emperor Brother, why did you come to the palace?" Zhu Zaikun didn't answer, took his sister's hand into the room, walked straight to the dressing table, asked his sister to sit down, pointed to the mirror and asked, "Who is this?"

The lights in the room were bright, and the beautiful and dignified face in the mirror looked bright and moving, she raised her eyebrows and smiled, and leaned her head against her brother: "It's Zhen'er, the third brother's most painful sister." ″

"You are Zhu Luzhen, the princess of Ning'an of our Ming Dynasty, and the little princess that my father loves the most. Huang Gonggong specially ran to my house at night and said the ins and outs of the whole thing, isn't it that Cheng Guogong didn't immediately make a clear answer, and ran outside in the middle of the night to get drenched in the rain for such a little thing, as for it! You have to think about it for him from the perspective of Zhu Yanshi, he is young and vigorous, and it is the time when he wants to show his ambitions, if he is allowed to hang on the wall with a high-ranking official, he will definitely not be able to accept it. Alas, if you want to blame the unwritten rules in the court, if it was in the Tang Dynasty or the early period of our dynasty, the Chengguo Mansion would be happy and stupid. ”

Ning An's long eyelashes immediately drenched in moisture: "Third brother, I understand what you said." But if Zhu Yanshi likes me, Cheng Guogong will not refuse, I have liked him for so many years, but he only has his own ideals and ambitions in his heart, and there is no place for me at all. ”

King Yu patiently comforted: "Zhen'er, you think too much. Zhu Yishi has been extremely strict with him since he was a child, practicing martial arts and literature, and he can't tolerate the slightest slackness, and now he is in Jinyiwei, how can he have time to consider the love of his children? As for the Duke of Chengguo, he has been knighted in the year of the weak crown, and for more than 20 years, he has been able to make the Chengguo Mansion have today's prestige and power under the situation of strict party control of the government, and he has won the trust of his father, his scheming and the city government are not what we can imagine. The so-called 'high place is not cold', he must always take the interests of the Chengguo Mansion as the primary consideration in everything. Sister, you will always be the most favored daughter of my father, and I am the most noble princess of the Ming Dynasty. Zhu Yishi has been locked up in the edict prison for more than half a year, and now he has just come out, presumably the two brothers still have palpitations. When Cheng Guogong figured this out, he would go to the Ministry of Rites to sign up for his younger brother. As for you, you don't want to do anything, just raise yourself healthy, fat, and beautiful, and wait to be a bride. ”

Ning An showed a wry smile: "Third brother, you don't have to coax me, I'm not a child." Oh, by the way, I'll listen to ......" Ning An lowered his voice and said, "I heard Gonggong Huang say that you are ready to move Hu Zongxian of the strict party?"
