Chapter 45: A little bit of sincerity, but not much

Qin Chaojiu's eyebrows and eyes were crooked, he took Xiao Changdui's hand and continued to walk forward, his eyes suddenly fell somewhere, and he noticed the figure in the distance, Qin Chaojiu immediately looked stunned.

Wen Ting?

Although it was just a silhouette, Qin Chaojiu still recognized it immediately, that person was Wen Ting, her adoptive mother who had beaten and scolded her for sixteen years.

Shouldn't she have been kicked out of the capital?

Are we still here?

On the opposite side of Wen Ting, a middle-aged man was talking to her, the two of them were mysterious, and the man seemed to have a little impatience on his face.

"This silver ticket is for you, don't come to me again in the future."

The last words that the man said, Qin Chaojiu could distinguish by his mouth.

Sure enough, as she expected, the man took out a silver ticket and handed it over.

"What are you looking at?"

Xiao Changdui followed Qin Chaojiu's gaze, and it happened that several children holding windmills running in front of them blocked Xiao Changdui's view.

Qin Chaojiu retracted his gaze and smiled: "It's nothing, let's go, Lord Wang." ”

No matter why Wen Ting came back, it won't affect her now, and she doesn't have to affect her mood because of unworthy people.

As long as she doesn't get into trouble with herself.

The two walked hand in hand from noon to the willows on the moon, and Xiao Changdui reluctantly sent Qin Chaojiu back to the Yongchang Marquis Mansion.

"Miss, Beimu Wangfu sent these woolen threads this afternoon, as well as these things, I don't know what they mean."

Winter Lotus came to Qin Chaojiu with a small box and asked.

When his eyebrows were raised slightly, Qin Chao was stunned for a long time.

Only then did I understand why Xiao Changdui was unhappy when he bought a scarf tonight.

The bamboo knot on the side touched the wool thread with excellent feel, and said in surprise: "Ah, the prince of Beimu is really capable, such a quality thread must be a tribute from the Western Regions, and the scarf must be comfortable and warm." ”

"Tomlyho, do you know how to scarf?" Qin Chao suddenly asked.

Zhu Jie said: "Dong Kui is the most skillful girl in our Hou Mansion, is it Dong Lotus." ”

Winter Lotus smiled and agreed: "Yes, my two hands combined, are not as good as Dong Kui's two fingers, even our old lady praises Dong Kui's craftsmanship." ”

"That's great, Hollyho, you can make me a bigger scarf."

Qin Chaojiu directly handed the wool to Dong Kui, and then put his index finger to his mouth and made a silent gesture: "Remember to help me keep it secret." ”

But it must not be known by Xiao Changdu.

Dong Kui was flattered and said, "This ...... It's not okay Miss, it's better for you to come in person for the things given to the prince. ”

Qin Chaojiu didn't care much and said: "It's okay, if you don't say it, I won't say it, no one knows." ”

"But...... But it's your heart. Although Dong Kui is silent on weekdays, he is actually a person with his own insistence in his bones.

Otherwise, Dong Lotus would not be the only one who is Bai Wan's eyeliner, and Dong Lotus has been being excluded.

Qin Chaojiu chuckled: "It's okay, now, your young lady is the sure princess of Beimu, he has already decided that your young lady, these are not important, hehehe, by the way, what are we going to eat tonight?" ”

"It's already this hour, miss, do you still want to have supper?" Bamboo asked, a little confused.

Qin Chaojiu nodded: "If you want to eat, winter is a good time to raise fat, how can you not eat?" ”

"Slave and maid go and prepare."

Zhujie said and retreated, and the winter lotus followed: "The people in the kitchen are all resting now, I'll go with you." ”

Zhujie glanced at the winter lotus root in surprise.

Today's winter lotus, why did it suddenly become more diligent and pleasing to the eye?

Dong Lyhock was the only one left in the room, waiting for Qin Chaojiu in front of the dresser, taking off the beaded hairpin on her head for her, and combing her long hair with a horn comb.

Qin Chaojiu snatched the comb and urged Dong Kui to say, "You go to tie the scarf first, I'll just come by myself." ”

"Yes."

Dong Que answered, she could see that their young lady had a sincere heart for the prince of Beimu, but not much.

The person who had all the sincerity for Xiao Changdui was in the majestic palace at the moment, standing in the middle of the snow, looking up at the dark night sky with no stars and no moon.

He proposed.

She knew him, always he always had a straight face, giving people a cold feeling of rejection thousands of miles away, but in fact, he was the most affectionate person in the world.

It's a pity that he is not the one who can give him happiness.

"Eldest princess, it's going to snow, you should sleep peacefully." The little palace maid on the side stepped forward with a thick cloak.

Xiao Sulu slowly lowered her head and burst into tears in an instant.

"Cha'er, you said that I would see him tomorrow, will he meet me?"

"The Eldest Princess......"

"I thought that he only had a family and country in his heart, and he never had half of his children's affection, but that day, I saw that he would be so gentle for a woman, and he had already moved his heart to a woman, you said, if this palace asks her to enter the palace as a concubine, will he agree?"

Xiao Sulu's words shocked the palace maid on the side and were speechless for a long time.

"Eldest princess, how can you be a concubine, your status is noble, if the man in this world can be your concubine, it is all the ancestors who have accumulated great virtue."

"And even if you are willing to deign, the Queen Mother will not agree."

Xiao Sulu's face showed a self-deprecating smile: "What is there to be noble, you call me the eldest princess, but in the eyes of those people outside, I am just a widow with a dead husband." ”

is also a widow who marries into another country and is very likely to have two hearts for Da Yue.

She didn't say the second half of the sentence.

From the day she returned to her homeland, from the emperor's guilty, grateful, distressed but hidden eyes with a hint of defense, she had understood everything.

"Eldest princess, you can't be presumptuous."

"Eldest princess, don't say that."

The palace maids knelt on the ground, their voices trembling.

Xiao Sulu lowered her head, her tone was soft, and she helped the tea on the ground up: "Okay, it's not a big deal, it's cold on the ground, get up quickly, Bengong just said casually, why are you still crying." ”

Cha'er was Xiao Sulu's maid when she was in the Su family, and she served her since she was a child.

Cha'er is naturally the one who understands her best.

"The slave just feels sorry for the master." Cha'er got up from the ground and wiped her tears.

Xiao Sulu pulled a reluctant smile on her face: "Cha'er, you said, fate has pushed me to this point, if I don't do anything, then what's the point of living here, isn't it?" ”

Cha'er looked up, and didn't understand the deep meaning of her master's eyes for a long time.

Xiao Sulu used a calming decoction and slept peacefully for a night.

The second day was another day covered in silver.

Xiao Sulu ordered someone to bring a set of blue clothes, the whole person's temperament was elegant and cold, and there was an orange bead flower on his head, which brightened the complexion of the whole person, and there was a little more heat in the elegance.

"Eldest princess, where are we going? Do you want to leave the palace? Jiu'er asked softly as she prepared her hand warmer and cloak.

Cha'er glanced up at Xiao Sulu, and unconsciously thought of what the master said yesterday.

There was a faint uneasiness in her heart, King Beimu was a person who had no heart, if the master went to find him, it would inevitably be another humiliation, she didn't want the master to go, but now she went to report to the Queen Mother, it seemed too late to stop it.

"The slave and maid remember that there is also a pair of yellow jade, which is just with the hairpin on your master's head, and the slave and maid will go and fetch it for you." Cha'er spoke, intending to take the opportunity to slip away.

But Xiao Sulu saw her thoughts at a glance, and said, "No need, this palace is very good, let's go." ”

Cha'er still didn't find a chance after all.

The carriage left the palace unimpeded and came all the way to the door of the Beimu Palace.

A snowman with braided hair is located in the open space in front of the Beimu Palace, and many small objects have been specially placed around, such as little rabbit dolls, small house wood carvings and other things, that corner is like a happy yard of a little snowman.

It looks warm and cute.

Xiao Sulu's gaze didn't come back to her senses for a long time, and she could almost conclude at a glance that this snowman must have come from the hands of Miss Qin Er.

"The prince is invited, the eldest princess, please come with the little one."

The housekeeper personally led Xiao Sulu to the flower hall in the front yard, and saw Xiao Changdu's broad figure facing away from her.

Xiao Sulu took a deep breath and lifted the hem of her skirt and stepped over the threshold.

"Su Lu greets the prince."

Xiao Sulu stood at the door, bending her knees slightly, although she tried her best to restrain her emotions, she still couldn't help but tremble lightly at the end.

Xiao Changdui turned around and gave a hand: "Eldest princess, please get up, I haven't seen you for a long time, is the eldest princess okay?" ”

"If you really want to know whether I'm good or not, why haven't you ever visited me once?" Xiao Sulu suddenly raised her eyes, a pair of watery eyes, and looked straight at Xiao Changdu.

Xiao Changdui's face was still the same cold look, and he said in a deep voice: "Brother Huang said that you are very good. ”

"When we first separated, you were just a twelve-year-old boy, and now you have reached the age when you should marry the princess, I heard that Miss Qin Er is very different, I think you must like her very much, right?"

She was three years older than him, and when he was a child, he would occasionally call her sister, but now she is only an eldest princess.

Xiao Changdui nodded: "She is indeed different, and I am already twenty-five, and the imperial brother has five sons and two daughters at my age." ”

"Hehehe." Seeing Xiao Changdui's serious expression, Xiao Sulu couldn't help covering her mouth and chuckling, suddenly, her eyebrows and eyes were raised slightly, and the look on her face became a little more solemn and serious: "But you clearly said in the past, if you marry a wife in the future, you will definitely marry a woman like me, why have you broken your promise now?" ”

Xiao Changdui's expression was suddenly stunned, and his deep eyes narrowed slightly.

He remembered.

When he was younger, he did say something like that.

But......

"Poof...... Xiao Sulu suddenly sneered: "I'm making a joke at random, why are you still serious?" How can I take my childhood words seriously, and if I have to worry about it, I should have broken the appointment first. ”

"But if I'm willing to be a concubine, will there be a place for me here?"
