"Who~ah!" Chu Hanzhang's head shrunk in the quilt asked sullenly.

Yuan Ke stretched out his hand and tapped the screen frame twice, and said, "It's me!" ”

"It turned out to be the third brother!" She grabbed the corner of the quilt with both hands and quietly pulled out a mouth, and her eyes looked out of the mouth, "Why didn't the third brother come in?" Standing behind the screen, Zhang Er can't see you clearly. ”

Yuan Ke hurriedly turned around when he heard the sound behind the screen, and his gaze moved downward, "If you wake up, get up quickly, freshen up, fourth sister, don't forget that General Chu will also return home today." ”

"Daddy?" Chu Hanzhang wrapped herself in the quilt and turned over, facing the sky on her back, she howled, "Come back, come back, it's been the first time, they all said that it was coming, but the results were all fake news." Third brother, don't talk about anything else, you haven't told Zhang Er why you didn't come behind the screen!

I can't really see you through the screen. Even what you say, I have to listen very carefully to hear it clearly. ”

After rubbing the corners of his clothes with the thumb and index finger of Yuan Ke's left hand, he said, "The ancients are cloudy, seven different seats, the fourth sister will be five weeks in a few days, as an elder brother, you should keep your distance for the sake of your sister's reputation." ”

"Reputation? Keep your distance? She turned into lying on her stomach, her hands were on the edge of the bed, her head drooped, and she replied to him, "If my brother wants to keep a distance from Zhang'er, and to maintain Zhang'er's reputation as a girl's family, shouldn't he call me outside the door at the beginning?" After speaking, she immediately shook her head, "No, if you really want to follow what the third brother said, then the brother should not come to this plum garden, and he should not be able to walk an inch in your Fusong Garden." ”

Yuan Ke couldn't say anything but Chu Hanzhang, and his face, which was originally quite fair, instantly turned red, "My sister is sophistry." ”

"Humph!" She snorted and said, "What is Zhang'er's sophistry, it is obvious that the third brother deliberately bullied me, after knowing that Zhang'er's ears are not good, and he can't hear clearly when he is far away, he can only judge what others say according to his lips and tongue, and he deliberately hides, and the third brother is deliberate."

Wow-it's unreasonable, the third brother is relying on his old age to bully a little girl who can't hear well~Ah——"

With a "bang", Chu Hanzhang's forehead hit the side of the bed, she lowered her two hands and continued to roar while dangling, "Wow-woo woo ~ ah... ”

"Four-" Yuan Ke, who was really afraid that Chu Hanzhang would be sad, hurriedly walked out from behind the screen, but in front of him, how could there be any tears, the little girl who was poked in a sad matter, in front of her, it was obviously a little fox with cunning eyes full of cunning, but her mouth was open and the boss was pulling her throat and howling.

Yuan Ke's panicked heart slowly calmed down, and he apologized to Chu Hanzhang, "Fourth sister, I'm sorry, it's the third brother who only cares about the righteousness of a gentleman, but he forgot that your ear was injured when you were a child." ”

Chu Hanzhang, who played Yuan Ke, saw that the goal was achieved, so she closed her voice, she held the futon on her shoulders, knelt on the bed, pulled the corner of the quilt with one hand to prevent it from hanging down, and the other touched her right ear pitifully, "It's good that the third brother knows, my mother said that Zhang'er's ears were blown by the wind and sand outside when the moon was full, so I can't hear people speak very clearly since I was a child, and since the third brother knows this, then in the future, I can't be the same as just now, hide behind people and don't see me make a sound."

I'll listen to that way. When the time comes, the third brother will be wrong, and the third brother will be angry again. ”

"Okay, okay, third brother, can you let Zhang'er sleep for one more hour!" She slapped the bed up and down with her feet crossed, "Third brother, Zhang'er is really sleepy, sleepy, sleepy!" ”

Yuan Ke smiled helplessly, "Then in this case, let's go to Changyuan Building first~"

"Changyuan Building? Isn't that a newly opened restaurant in Shangjing? Speaking of this, Chu Hanzhang's head was sobered up all of a sudden, and she started quickly and said, "It is said that in order to attract people to eat and drink, the owner of the restaurant specially invited the singer of the Western Regions from outside the Guan, oh yes, and Youling from Nanping."

It is said that the singer has a slender body and a body as light as a swallow, and can easily dance the drum music made by Zhao Zhaoyi in the previous dynasty, and it is also said that those excellent singers perform the lingering and sad stories in the playbook, which is very vivid.

Moving, the compassion is lingering, so that people don't shout a good. ”

As soon as Chu Hanzhang finished speaking, Yuan Ke handed over a cup of water that had just been poured at the right time, "Why is it all said?" ”

Bei Tooth knocked on the rim of the cup, and she muttered, "I have been trapped in this mansion all day like a bird, and I want to know what is going on outside, so naturally I can only tell others." ”

What Chu Hanzhang said, Yuan Ke knew, "Aunt is also thinking about the fourth sister, the younger sister has been in poor health since she was a child, and the aunt is also worried that the fourth sister will have something to do, so she won't let you go out."

The fourth sister must not misunderstand her aunt because of these things. Just looking at the various plum blossoms in this plum garden, the fourth sister should know how much your aunt treats you......"

"If my mother wants to be really good for me, she shouldn't take me to the city gate to blow the cold wind when I am less than two months old, how is my body, how is it now, in the final analysis, it depends on that day?" Without waiting for Yuan Ke to finish speaking, Chu Hanzhang roared angrily, "As for this garden full of plum blossoms...... she looked at Yuan Ke, and the disappointment in her eyes gradually fell silent.

Hanging his head, Chu Hanzhang admitted his mistake unconvinced, "I'm sorry third brother, Zhang Er shouldn't have said that." ”

He walked over, took the porcelain cup in her hand, put it aside, and touched her head, "The fourth sister is so good~"

"I'm not good!" She turned her face away and sniffed with tears, really, why do you want to say that she is good, isn't this why she cries!

Yuan Ke said again, "No, the fourth sister is very well-behaved, and the fourth sister is the most well-behaved little girl the third brother has ever seen." The third brother knew that he couldn't go out in this plum garden all these years, which made the fourth sister uncomfortable. ”

"So!" His volume suddenly increased, which made Chu Hanzhang a little curious, "So what?" ”

"So today, the third brother specially asked his aunt for permission to take the fourth sister to Changyuan Building for dinner."

"Changyuan Building? Is it really that Changyuan Building? The third brother can't deceive people. She poked her head out and slid in front of Yuan Ke, her long and dense eyelashes trembled regularly, and the water in her eyes that had just endured crying was sparkling, sparkling like stars in the sky.

The little girl who is almost five years old seems to have been born more white and jade, lively and cute.

"Ke'er, the queen mother will give you the girl of the Chu family to be your future queen, okay?" Yuan Ke's mind unconsciously sounded what Empress Shangguan told him when he entered the palace to see Empress Shangguan a few days ago.

On that day, Empress Shangguan said to Yuan Ke that way, she said, "Ke'er, although you are now free to enter and leave the palace because of your father's temporary soft-heartedness, but the king's heart has always been unfathomable, and he can now have pity for you, my mother and son because of his old age and illness.

At that time, ......" As she spoke, Empress Shangguan's face was covered with tears, and she lovingly stroked Yuan Ke's face, choked up, "Ronghua is meaningless to lose, the queen mother is just afraid, mother and son are separated, it will be difficult to see my Ke'er in this palace, Ke'er ....."

Yuan Ke was firm in his heart of only being a carefree prince, and gradually disintegrated in Queen Shangguan's bitter crying one after another, "Don't worry, the queen mother will not let the queen mother be embarrassed and embarrassed by missing her son." Erchen will definitely take advantage of now, while his father still loves Erchen, to work hard to please him, and strive to get an errand as soon as possible. With errands, it was convenient for the retainers to enter and leave the palace. ”

Yuan Ke's words are obviously not very much to the will of Empress Shangguan, but to be able to do this, to make him loosen his mouth, it is a great progress, Empress Shangguan smiled like the wind, and nodded slowly, "Ke'er can think of sharing worries for the monarch and sharing labor for his father, this palace thinks, if His Majesty knows, he will definitely be very pleased."

It's just Ke'er, you're not young now, have you considered starting a family? ”

Yuan Ke returned with a sincere gaze, "After returning to my mother, my son's son is still young, and I have no consideration for starting a family. ”

Empress Shangguan nodded and said, "This palace also thinks so, although Ke'er is fourteen, you are not as weak as the crown, and this matter of starting a family can be delayed a little longer." But it's too late to get married, and the candidate has to look first. There are many clans in Shangjing, and there are countless young sons of the same age as you.

Ke'er, in the capital, do you have a favorite girl? She turned around for a long time and paved for a long time before finally getting to the point.

Empress Shangguan held her breath for a long time before she heard Yuan Ke say, "The sons and daughters are all in charge of the queen mother." ”

It's up to her? She looked at Yuan Ke carefully for a long time, and found that his eyebrows were light and relaxed, so she put her mind at ease and said, "That is the case, that Ke'er, this palace will give you the girl of the Chu family to be your future queen, okay?" ”

"Queen?" Yuan Ke's expression tightened, and he hurriedly said, "Queen Mother, you should know what your son wants, and that position, your son doesn't want it." ”

Empress Shangguan ignored Yuan Ke's resistance, and asked, "Does Ke'er not like the girl of the Chu family?" ”

"Nope." Yuan Ke immediately said, "The fourth sister is innocent and reckless, lively and cheerful, Erchen likes it very much, with the gift of a wife, Ming Media is even more willing to marry Erchen, just for the king's ......" He calmed his face and knelt down at her, "Erchen is unwilling!" ”

"Then what if the palace says that if you want to marry Chu Hanzhang, you have to sit in that position?" After understanding Yuan Ke's thoughts about Chu Hanzhang, what Empress Shangguan said no longer had any scruples.

Yuan Ke's eyes were stunned, and Empress Shangguan then said, "Ke'er, if you are not reincarnated here in this palace, or if this palace is not the queen of this Great Wei, if this palace is just an ordinary concubine, then you can naturally think of this." In that case, you are the concubine, and the position of the concubine is the best if you don't fight. But now the result is that after the palace is a country, are you the concubine of the middle palace, or the eldest son, which is the eldest son of the minister since ancient times, and there is a good end?

Ke'er, do you think this palace wants you to fight and take it? No, all of this is fate, it is your fate that clamps your throat and forces you to fight.

If you don't fight, you are being bullied, and if you are bullied, what will happen to you as your wife? As smart as the Chu family, do you think you will be relieved to marry your pampered daughter to you and suffer with you? ”

Empress Shangguan's words were like a knife hanging over Yuan Ke's head, as long as he saw Chu Hanzhang once, it would fall a few inches, reminding him that if he didn't fight, he wouldn't be worthy of being close to her.

However, Chu Hanzhang didn't know about these, and naturally there were no things in her memories, these things were all seen as a bystander when Zhou Yiqing and Shang Lu later practiced the art of weaving dreams.
