Chapter 9 Eavesdropping on the little mandarin duck in the corner
"Princess, the banquet is about to start, the queen mother has not seen you, let the slave and maid hurry up to find you."
Xiao Gong'e, who was running out of breath, breathed a sigh of relief, and then said, "Miss Zhao, please also follow the slave and maid to take a shortcut."
Zhao Xibao glanced at Xiao Gong'e and thought to himself, the little girl is quite clever, and she can find out the environment in advance and prevent problems before they happen.
Xibao couldn't help but look at Xiao Gong'e twice, although she was not tall, her round apricot eyes were watery, her cheeks had small dimples, and her body was full of aura.
"Princess, Miss Zhao, be careful under your feet, pass through this rockery, and you will arrive at Qinyuan"
Princess Hua Yi looked at the foreground and said with a smile: "In the book, but where there is a garden rockery, there must be a pair of bitter mandarin ducks to tell each other their heartfelt feelings."
As soon as the words fell, a woman sobbed in her ears. Princess Hua Yi took Zhao Xibao and tiptoed to the side and sighed at Xiao Gong'e.
Zhao Xibao couldn't cry or laugh, princess, your mouth has been opened.
The movement in her ears seemed to be a woman crying and saying something alone, as if she didn't want to get married, but only liked the person in front of her.
Princess Hua Yi listened to it with relish. Xibao Shame: My princess, do you remember that we were going to the feast?
After a while, a cold and nice voice came, "You, talking to this king?" ”
Xibao almost couldn't control it, and wanted to laugh, it was too lacking in morality. The girl confessed her heart there, but this lord dared to love without hearing a word, and he was disappointed by the beauty.
Princess Hua Yi was stunned when she heard this, stiffened her body, and moved out little by little in slow motion. Who knew that the master on the back of the rockery spoke up: "Whoever is there, come out by yourself."
Seeing Princess Hua Yi's tangled face, Xibao touched her head and walked out by herself. I'm afraid that it is Hua Yi's acquaintance, and it will be embarrassing for the two to meet in person.
The figure that came out from behind the rockery was graceful, beautiful eyes, and smiling.
The man in white was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "How long have you been hiding behind and listening?" Monkey business. ”
When Zhao Xibao looked up at him, he had a familiar feeling, the figure in the moon-white clothes was similar to that person. How could he easily forget, after all, that person has been with him for more than ten years.
At this time, only Zhao Xibao and the boy in white were left, and the woman who cried and complained about her heartfelt feelings had already run away shyly and timidly.
The man in white waited patiently for Xibao to answer, it seemed that she didn't answer to be ugly, and she didn't want to pass this level.
Zhao Xibao knew that eavesdropping behind her back was immoral, so she couldn't tell him that it was Princess Huayi who pulled her to listen, but in fact, she didn't care about these things at all.
Saying it is tantamount to selling Princess Huayi, Zhao Xibao sighed and admitted it.
The man in white looked at Zhao Xibao with his head down and wringed the handkerchief in his hand, with a look of resignation, and sincerely admitted his mistake: "I was wrong, I shouldn't eavesdrop." In fact, I was going to take a shortcut to the banquet, but unfortunately I passed by here, and I wanted to wait for you to leave, and I would come out again. ”
The man in white raised his hand, and his joy flashed, he didn't want to hit her! He reached out and plucked a leaf from her hair. By the way, I touched it twice, how did it feel like touching a pet?
It must have been that she was too nervous and felt wrong. The man in white spoke again, "Hua Yi come out!" ”
Xibao complained in his heart, the girl confessed her heart to you, you didn't hear a word clearly, what is the movement behind the rockery, you are clear.
Hua Yi wiped the sweat with a handkerchief, and shouted: "Seventh brother"
Xibao was stunned, and hurriedly saluted: "The little girl doesn't know His Royal Highness King Ning, please forgive me."
King Ning's delicate and good-looking face smiled, "Get up, you will come with me to the table." ”
Hua Yi was particularly well-behaved in front of His Royal Highness King Ning. After arriving at Qinyuan, Hua Yi immediately made a farewell salute and slipped away quickly.
Only Zhao Xibao wants to cry without tears, Hua Yi, you said okay, you want to take me to the table. You left me here alone, don't you know that the courtiers and the royal viewing area are separated?
Zhao Xibao, Zhao Xibao, you road idiot. Xibao stiffened his head and called, "His Royal Highness King Ning, I don't know the way." King Ning was noncommittal, and snorted softly.
followed King Ning all the way, only to find that he had come to the exclusive park of the royal family and nobles. Now that the banquet is about to open, everyone is basically sitting neatly, and the emperor and queen are sitting upright. At this moment, it is too late to retreat, and losing honor in front of the palace is a big crime of killing the head, so you can only follow His Royal Highness King Ning.
King Ning led her to the seat, and there were peony bushes next to this position, which could subtly cover the sight of everyone after sitting down. King Ning walked up to the emperor and queen with both hands and bowed briefly. The emperor jokingly asked: "Why did you come so late to meet the beautiful woman in private?"
King Ning replied casually, "When I got lost, I met the little flower cat, which was very interesting, so I was late." ”
The emperor was interested, and asked, "Oh, yes, hurry up and take the seat." ”
The queen pursed her lips and chuckled, "Which girl did you just introduce to the seat?" ”
Zhao Xibao looked at the emperor and queen and King Ning, both looking in her direction, and was so frightened that he hurriedly lowered his head, so that he missed observing King Ning's mouth shape.
The male and female seats are separated, and the clan and noble seats are even more single, and the high places are not cold. The ladies are far away, so they may not be able to see the situation above.
Therefore, Zhao Xibao dared to boldly follow His Royal Highness King Ning. But Xibao has been in the palace and has seen the queen's mother, so he is afraid of being recognized.
King Ning glanced at her from a distance, as if he sensed her state, this time there was a smile in his eyes, and he bowed: "Back to the queen's mother, now that the spring banquet has started, the sons and daughters will not delay time." Rong Erchen retired. ”
King Ning returned to his seat, asked her to sit behind him, and asked her in a low voice, "Scared?" ”
Zhao Xibao wiped tears in her heart, didn't she just listen to a piece of gossip, and she didn't hear that she was ugly, God needed to punish her like this? It's really scary, isn't it?
Zhao Hengde, who was sitting in the seat behind the crown prince, had already fallen into thought.
He could see clearly that the little follower behind King Ning was his sister. How could this little girl enter with King Ning, and when did the two of them meet?
Obviously, the passage of the ladies was on the left side when they entered. Why didn't she enter from there? Didn't King Ning tell her?
Zhao Hengde's eyes have been staring at His Royal Highness King Ning, and he doesn't know if King Ning deliberately adjusted his position, or if the light is weak, Bao'er can't see it when he hides in the shadows.
At this time, Zhao Xibao was hiding behind and feasting, he didn't eat much in the morning, and he would definitely be hungry at night.
Just now, his stomach was growling, and Xibao seemed to hear the laughter of King Ning in front of him, and his face turned red.
However, King Ning was kind enough to give her all the food on the table. Most of them are already processed, such as sliced meat, plucked shrimp, picked fish, and soup with just the right temperature.
Zhao Xibao thought that the royal banquet was good, it was all processed, and it could be eaten directly in the mouth.
Sneaking a glance at the other tables, they were all whole fish and whole dishes. Xibao sighed silently with satisfaction: The benefits of the prince are different.
Clear soup matsutake mushroom, Longjing shrimp, Ganoderma lucidum hidden Yuchan, squirrel mandarin fish, cordyceps stewed pigeon. It's all her favorite dishes, and now she completely forgot about the encounter she had just been frightened, and thanked God for filling her mouth.
Warm and full of beauty, she sat behind and looked at the person in front of her, with broad shoulders and narrow waist, it should be the type of thin and undressed with flesh, wearing a white jade crown, and his moon-white dark bamboo dragon pattern brocade reflected each other.
Just handed the food to her, the two fingers inadvertently touched, and his hands were white and warm.
King Ning has an extraordinary bearing, just sitting quietly gives people a sense of intimidation, and he is worthy of being a long-time superior.
It may be that the eyes of the eyes are too obvious, and the king of Ning in front of him said with a smile: "Can this king afford to be beautiful and delicious?" Xibao's face turned red when he rubbed it, as if a child who had done something wrong was caught by his parents.
"I'm full, I'll follow this king later" Before the words fell, he was interrupted.
