More than ten years have passed in a flash, and the Yaoguang Hall has been coerced by several ups and downs, but it has not changed much.

Stepping into the main hall, the small couch that had been entrenched by the window was still silently squatting in place, and there was an additional enamel color pine, bamboo and plum three-friend pattern olive vase on the windowsill, and a few peach blossom branches with morning dew used this vase as a railing, leaning on the mouth of the bottle idlely, stretching their bodies.

The sunlight shines through the window lattice and falls on these charming figures, which is also a beautiful sight.

It's a pity that He Qianwei is not in the mood to appreciate it: at this moment, all her attention is on the book spread out on the table, and even Xiao Zaiyang next to her can't take care of it for a while.

Xiao Zaiyang has long been accustomed to He Qianwei's behavior of hanging himself next to him as soon as he gets busy, and he doesn't bother him, but slowly touches a book from the couch and prepares to pass the time.

As a result, after reading a few lines, Xiao Zaiyang frowned.

He flipped the scroll in his hand up, revealing the book cover, and the three big characters "Garden Notes" stood out on it.

Looking at the name, it's quite serious.

Xiao Zaiyang muttered in his heart, but when he opened it, it turned out to be a sour love story, he originally thought it was a book about landscapes and gardens.

I've seen it all, but I can't give up halfway.

So Xiao Zaiyang continued to watch.

The garden book used a page to mark the page number, and even wrote a brief introduction, Xiao Zaiyang simply read the introduction, scanned the table of contents, and had the prototype of the story told in this book in his heart.

The official lady received a handkerchief and went to the courtyard on the outskirts of the city to attend the spring banquet, but when she was visiting the garden alone, she happened to meet the composer who played music for the banquet.

Qu Shi's status is low, but he talks extraordinary, and his body is even more gentle and elegant, and the two talk happily.

Miss has lived in the boudoir for a long time, and it is difficult to see even the brothers at home on weekdays, how to withstand the temptation, after returning home, she often thinks of Qushi, and the next time she meets at the banquet, she finds that she has already fallen in love with Qushi at first sight......

If it was only here, Xiao Zaiyang usually followed the book collected by He Qianwei, and he could be regarded as having seen the world, but the follow-up development really made him inexplicable.

Although you are careful when you come and go, after all, the paper can't hold the fire.

During one of the private meetings, the two were arrested, and the young lady originally thought that her fate with the Qu Master was over, but who knew that the true identity of the Qu Master was actually the prince of the dynasty!

The young lady cried with joy, and Qu Shi, that is, the prince, naturally hugged the beauty, and never envied the mandarin ducks or immortals.

…… Pretty good.

Xiao Zaiyang exhaled deeply and closed the book in his hand without hesitation.

Coincidentally, he is also the crown prince of the dynasty, but he really can't look down on the so-called "prince" in this book.

Just being a prince, but being mistaken for a composer, and not even explaining this himself, is enough for Xiao Zaiyang to despise.

As for the other sections, they are even more absurd everywhere, even to the point of not bothering to find fault - if they are criticized one by one, he is afraid that he will be able to correct them all day.

This Xiao Zaiyang is still adjusting his mentality, but He Qianwei over there has given up for the time being, planning to fight again next time.

The book of war has always been profound, even if she is talented, there are occasionally a few articles that she can't figure out, even if she asks Xiao Zaiyang and asks Taifu, she still can't understand it.

Knowing it but not knowing why, in He Qianwei's opinion, it is also incomprehensible after all.

As soon as she turned her head like this, she saw Xiao Zaiyang holding half of the book in his hand, with a strange expression.

He Qianwei was puzzled by his expression, and her eyes glanced at the cover of the book, and she saw the title of the book clearly, and then she understood.

She picked up the bookmark casually and put it on the page, pushed the military book to the side, propped her chin and said with a smile: "How do you feel, His Royal Highness the Prince?" ”

She just started reading this yesterday, and she remembers the plot clearly, and she deliberately used an accent on the title at the end, making no secret of her ridicule.

Xiao Zaiyang raised his eyes and looked at He Qianwei, who was gloating, and moved his lips slightly, but he didn't say anything as if he had any scruples.

He Qianwei smiled even more happily: "I said it when His Highness first read the script, you can see it, but after reading it, you are not allowed to talk about it, and you have to go to Hushan." ”

“…… If it weren't for wanting to know what you like, I wouldn't have looked at it more. Xiao Zaiyang snorted lightly, "There is a living prince next to Miss, so you can't really believe this book casually, right?" ”

"Look, what is this talking about." He Qianwei said, "I can still distinguish between the script and reality." ”

She added in a low voice: "After all, I can't imagine that being the prince of the dynasty can be such a beautiful woman who doesn't love the country......"

"You might have some misconceptions about me." Xiao Zaiyang's old god is here, "I love it all." ”

"How humble are you?!"

"This prince is a genius and never modest."

The two exchanged a few more words back and forth around the topic, until there was a deliberate sound of footsteps outside, and then they tacitly stopped bickering and looked at the door together.

The childhood habits are still used to this day, and they still don't like to keep people by their side when they get along in private - of course, the secret guards who follow Xiao Zaiyang and He Qianwei and hide in secret places at any time do not count.

The palace people also know their habits, usually they will automatically retreat outside the hall without orders, but now they suddenly entered without a word of notification, obviously there is something important, and it is not good to remind them loudly, so they have to increase their pace.

Under the gaze of the two, a robe flashed by the door, and then, Tang Zhengde's face appeared at the door.

Xiao Zaiyang immediately raised his eyebrows: "Why are you?" ”

He Qianwei didn't say anything, but she was also very curious.

"I handed Miss He a post outside the palace, and Your Majesty asked the slave to deliver a letter." Tang Zhengde said with a smile, took out a gold leaf from his sleeve to decorate it, and presented it with both hands.

“…… I haven't had too deep a relationship with other ladies in the past few years, so who sent me a post? ”

Hearing this, and seeing the post sent to her again, He Qianwei was as strange as a confused monk.

But this greeting post was sent by Tang Zhengde, and it was personally instructed by the emperor, she thought that maybe there was something else, so she also reached out and took it.

Xiao Zaiyang also got a little closer, wanting to take a look at the content of this worship post together.

After such a move, the distance between the two has been reduced a lot, if it were replaced by another teenager or girl, they would already be blushing, and they would be separated immediately in the next moment, but whether it was Xiao Zaiyang or He Qianwei, they were not aware at all, and they didn't even have the slightest intention of avoiding suspicion.

Not only that, He Qianwei even cooperatively held the prayer post and moved it to the middle, so that Xiao Zaiyang could see the content clearly, and then it was expanded.

Tang Zhengde entered the palace when he was young, and was lucky to be selected to the saint of the unfavored prince at that time, and accompanied the other party through countless calculations until he ascended to the throne, and even watched Xiao Zaiyang and He Qianwei grow up, and when he saw this scene, he only felt happy in his heart, and his eyes were much kinder.

The two parties were completely unaffected, bowing their heads and reading the prayer post carefully.

There was no tirade written on the worship post, and soon Xiao Zaiyang took the lead in raising his head, subconsciously looking at He Qianwei, and looking at the girl who was half a beat slower.

He Qianwei blinked, raised the prayer post, pressed her round thumb against the paper, and said in surprise: "Spring banquet? ”

The spring banquet is not just a spring banquet, but the ladies of the various families in Beijing privately call it the mutual viewing banquet - what a straightforward name.

Such a large-scale banquet often needs a person with a strong identity to preside, and in terms of preciousness, the royal family bears the brunt, and Princess Yun is such a person.

The emperor's compatriots were killed and injured in the battle for succession, but King Yun was an exception.

This person's mother's status is low, when he was young, he and the son of heaven who was still the prince supported each other for a period of time, and when he grew up, he had no interest in the throne, how far away he avoided, all kinds of factors were superimposed, and King Yun naturally became the only brother who was not cleaned up by the emperor, and even got a title.

Princess Yun, as the wife of King Yun, took the initiative to hold an annual spring banquet with the acquiescence of the emperor under the expectations of the public, providing an opportunity for the sons and ladies of each family to see each other.

As the crown prince, Xiao Zaiyang has also dealt with King Yun, who is quite trusted by the emperor, so he naturally understands what the spring banquet means; As for He Qianwei, she doesn't care about herself, but she can't stand Mama Chen's daily chatter, and she knows it in her heart.

It was also under this letter of worship that the two finally realized that He Qianwei is now fourteen years old, and she is in a hurry to turn the year, even if she is not in a hurry to get married, she can indeed look at each other.

The emperor has never raised a daughter, he is busy with political affairs every day, and he doesn't even care much about Xiao Zaiyang's marriage; As for He Qianwei, he naturally couldn't think of this layer.

Although Mama Chen was in a hurry, after all, her status was low, even if she had thousands of thoughts, she couldn't intervene, so she could only hint countless times a day, but it was a pity that her own young lady was very arrogant and not worried at all.

Now the thoughtful Princess Yun's post came down, reminding the emperor without a trace, and also relieved Mama Chen's urgent need.

Tang Zhengde waited for a while, estimating that the two masters had probably eased up, and then continued: "Your Majesty said, the girl should only go to play, if she lacks something, just ask for a slave or maid, if there is a short-sighted collision with the girl, it will be taught a lesson directly." ”

This is thanks to Lin Qingyan's incident at the beginning, and the emperor mentioned such an extra sentence.

seems to be a fluttering sentence, but it gives He Qianwei enough confidence to let her walk sideways at the spring banquet.

It doesn't matter who it is, if she is unhappy, she will have a seizure on the spot, when to relieve her anger and when to bypass the other party. If anyone has an opinion and thinks that He Qianwei is arrogant and domineering, then it is easy to say, go to the Qinzheng Palace and talk to the emperor by himself.

It seems to be quite reasonable, but no one in the whole country knows that the emperor has always been able to protect his own people without blushing and heartbeat......

Needless to say, Xiao Zaiyang, just bringing out the prime minister who followed the left and right when the emperor was in the palace is enough to illustrate this fact: the prime minister's mouth even dares to scare the Son of Heaven above his head, not to mention other civil and military officials, but every time, the one on the throne can watch the play happily, and a word of advice will be covered if it is good for the ear.

When it comes to protecting calves, the emperor has always been the first worthy of the name.

Xiao Zaiyang didn't speak for a long time.

He and He Qianwei have known each other since they were young, and they have an oath in front of them, and after so many years of getting along, they have long regarded each other as one of the most important people. Now that He Qianwei is ready to look at others, she should naturally take care of it herself, and screen the candidates first, how can she be cut off by this spring banquet?

Xiao Zaiyang thought so much that he didn't realize that he didn't know when he started, so he intentionally or unintentionally ignored He Qianwei's marriage, let alone the selection of young talents.

However, He Qianwei waited for a long time and didn't wait for a word, and couldn't help but bump her elbow against the person next to her who suddenly pondered for some reason: "Your Highness?" ”

Xiao Zaiyang subconsciously hummed.

"Why don't you speak?" He Qianwei looked at him inexplicably, "I just asked if you wanted to go, but I didn't wait for an answer." ”

"Go, why don't you go?" Xiao Zaiyang was embarrassed to say that he was distracted and didn't hear it at all, so he simply replied, "Youyun Wang's sister-in-law is watching, the spring banquet can't make any waves, you injured your hand while riding a horse before, and you have been holding back in the palace for a long time, and it's good to go out for a walk." ”

Your Highness, this is not a distraction, it is looking at others!

Tang Zhengde thought to himself.

Xiao Zaiyang didn't think there was anything wrong with his statement, and even took the initiative to add: "I'll accompany you when the time comes." ”

Although He Qianwei felt that it was quite strange for the two of them to participate in the spring banquet together, she was used to going in and out with Xiao Zaiyang, so she naturally agreed; As for Xiao Zaiyang...... He didn't know why he suddenly mentioned it.

In short, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince just wants to follow, he doesn't want a spring banquet, and the little girl who he watched grow up will be deceived by someone by means like the unworldly boudoir lady in the garden.

- So His Royal Highness the Prince, do you really know what the Spring Banquet is for?
