Text 153.Shin Jun-so, the prince of the Southern Prince
Just when Jun Yixi was guessing, Liu An beside him spoke: "Third Prince, I just heard the news that Miss Liu San went to your Third Prince's Mansion. ”
Wait, what did Ang Liu say? Jun Yixi's eyes narrowed.
"But the third prince, you are not in the mansion now, I'm afraid Miss Liu San will have to run for nothing." Liu An continued to remind, what's going on, this is not the style of the three princes! If he told him that Miss Liu San had gone to look for him, wouldn't he have gone to the appointment happily, why would he still be inking here?
Now Jun Yixi didn't hear it wrong, Jiu'er did go to his mansion to find her, how could it be! She's not such a proactive person! Did she think her eldest brother would be locked up in his mansion?
"The Third Prince-" Why are you still grinding, this lord!
"You help me guard here, I'll come when I go!" Jun Yixi pretended to be calm and said, without letting Liu An finish his words, he had already turned around and left the banquet scene.
Looking at the back of his master leaving the ground in a dashing manner, Liu An smiled, this is what his master will do! Letting his fiancée go empty is really not the style of the master.
It should be nearby, Liu Jiu'er wiped the sweat from her forehead, this palace is simply too big, and it feels like many buildings are the same! There is no discrimination at all, she is not a road idiot who has become a road idiot when she enters the palace, causing her to take a lot of detours, presumably now that she has gone to the Three Princes' Mansion, the three princes have left, so let's go and see! Try one's luck. Jiu'er took a deep breath and continued to walk towards the mansion of the third prince.
Obviously, he was chasing the footsteps to catch Liu Jiu'er's time, but he didn't expect that since he arrived earlier than her, this girl was probably lost in a bend in a corner, the third prince looked around, and still didn't see the shadow of Yiren, by the way, the girls and eunuchs who were waiting in the mansion left, and when Jiu'er came over, he didn't want other people around to disturb them.
Just as Jun Yixi had arranged everything, the footsteps he was all too familiar with were gradually approaching, and the other party was visibly panting and stopped by the gate.
The door was not closed, with Jun Yixi's many years of experience in the Liuli Pavilion mission, he could accurately sense Jiu'er's hesitation, as if she was making a lot of determination, she put her hand on the door, but she never knocked on the door.
There was no sound at all inside, and there was not even a palace maid when I looked inside, there was no doubt about it, the third prince must have left, too! With such a big banquet in the palace, how could the third prince, as the emperor's eldest son, not appear at the scene! She has always felt that she is very smart, and she can't even think of such a simple truth, but she is really stupid.
Liu Jiu'er leaned against the wall on the side like a deflated ball, she slowly squatted down, so tired, she didn't want to go anywhere, looking at the places around her that were strange to her, she was inexplicably a little aggrieved in her heart, she didn't know why she was so obsessed with this matter, was it because of the eldest brother? Or is it because she and her eldest brother were forced to sacrifice their marriage by this so-called imperial order.
Why is there no sound outside? Jun Yixi listened attentively to the sound outside, and there was no footsteps leaving, so Jun Yixi could be sure that Liu Jiu'er was standing in place and did not leave, he set off and walked out of the door lightly, and when he saw the scene outside, there was an inexplicable heartache in his chest, Jiu'er squatted in the corner, staring at one place with red eyes and not blinking, his teeth biting his lower lip, for fear that he would cry.
Why do you have to be so yourself? If you really want to cry, cry generously!
Xu is aware of the movement around her, Liu Jiu'er blinked her eyes and raised her head, backlight, she could only see a figure, but she couldn't see any face of the other party clearly, Liu Jiu'er rubbed her eyes, the people in the backlight were a little familiar, from the height and body shape and even the feeling was so familiar, she took a deep breath, didn't this feel like the master of the glass pavilion? It's so similar to the Lord of the Glass Pavilion, the jawline that can be seen vaguely is too similar! How did he end up here?
"Pavilion-" Liu Jiu'er stood up quickly, the name of the pavilion master was not shouted, looking at where the pavilion master was in front of him, it was clearly the third prince, dressed in expensive yellow, chic ponytail, Liu Jiu'er looked at him without blinking, why did she see the third prince as the pavilion master, so carefully looking, the third prince is very similar to the pavilion master regardless of height and physique, so the backlight just now made her recognize the wrong person.
That's right, too! How could the Lord of the Liuli Pavilion appear in the palace so blatantly, only the three princes in the palace could be! A little lost, Liu Jiu'er blinked and shifted her gaze, but the other party opened her mouth first.
"What did you just call me?" If he heard it correctly just now, Liu Jiu'er was calling him the Pavilion Master just now, and she saw herself as the Liuli Pavilion Master? Right! There is nothing wrong with being the pavilion master, but now this outfit and the current voice are not the mode of the pavilion master, how could Liu Jiu'er admit him wrong? Could it be that she had already guessed his dual identity?
"No, nothing!" Liu Jiu'er hurriedly shook her head, she must not admit the master of the Liuli Pavilion in front of the three princes! It's good to say that the other party is also his fiancé, which is really not good, in case the third prince will pursue it, it will become a troublesome matter.
"Well, it's good to have nothing! Why did you come to my mansion? "Let's just think she's wrong! Jun Yixi changed the subject suspiciously.
"The third prince, the third prince, do you know where my eldest brother is imprisoned? Last night, he and his father were called into the palace by the emperor, but after that, only his father came back, and the eldest brother did not come back, I heard Brother Nai say just now, the seventh princess is also looking for my brother, we don't know where the eldest brother went! As soon as she was excited, Liu Jiu'er grabbed Jun Yixi's arm, she even ignored why the third prince suddenly appeared, obviously the mansion was so quiet that there was no one, she just wanted to know where her eldest brother was now.
"Sorry! I don't know. Jun Yixi shook his head, the people he sent out to find Liu Haocheng have not yet come to report that it is very likely that Haocheng has been secretly locked up by his father.
"Don't even the three princes know?" Liu Jiu'er took a deep breath, and her eyes turned red again in an instant: "Then what should I do?" I can't find my brother, what if the seventh princess is really taken away by the prince of the southern kingdom? My brother will go crazy, he has changed a lot for the Seventh Princess, Jiu'er knows the eldest brother's thoughts, his feelings, we can't let the Seventh Princess get married. ”
"Don't worry! Haocheng will definitely be able to find it, even if he can't find the prince of the southern kingdom, he will definitely not take Jun Cicada away, I have a plan here, Jiu'er, are you willing to cooperate with me? I couldn't bear to see Jiu'er's sad expression again, Jun Yixi raised a hand and stroked Jiu'er's hair, and her voice became gentle.
"Plan?"
"Well, plan! But I need your help. ”
"Well, as long as I can do it for the sake of my eldest brother, I am willing to do anything." Liu Jiu'er nodded vigorously.
"Good! You listen carefully—"
……
When he returned to the banquet hall, the prince of the southern kingdom had arrived, and suddenly thunderous applause began to circulate around him, and some small voices also came.
"Wow! The prince of the southern kingdom is really good-looking! ”
"That's it! It is! Look at his figure is also excellent, it's really the same as the rumors, and even the ones who see it with their own eyes are more brilliant than the rumors. ”
"What I said is, if the other party is such a handsome and chic prince, even if it is to marry the southern kingdom, I am willing! It's very eye-catching to be around! A girl said like a nymphomaniac.
"You can save it! The prince is here to marry the princess, depending on how qualified you are. ”
Is it really that good? Since he can make the girls around him instantly become, with the direction everyone is looking at, Liu Jiu'er also saw the prince who was in the middle of everyone, the sun shone on his body, and his already fair skin looked more handsome, since he was somewhat similar to the eldest brother in his eyebrows, of course, he was definitely more handsome than the eldest brother, and his temperament was better.
If Jun Chan doesn't have his own big brother, in fact, it is good to follow such an eye-catching prince. Liu Jiu'er thought about it, but found that since she had such an idea, she quickly shook her head, no! No matter how good the other party is, it's better to be your eldest brother! How can you praise outsiders and belittle your own people!
"The emperor is auspicious, Shen Junxiu, the prince of Xiannan, has to disturb the emperor for a few days when you come to your country." Shin Jun-so set his eyes on the emperor, his eyes were full of joy, and that respectful attitude was also convincing.
"Where is Xiaojun, it's really hard to travel long distances! When you come, your charm instantly compares to my princes, how can this be good! The emperor also walked down a few steps to greet him personally.
"The emperor is really polite! Xiao Wang glanced at the three princes, that is the outstanding talent, Xiao Wang only has a porough appearance, how can he compare with the three princes. Shin Jun-so warmly took the hand handed over by the emperor.
"Hahaha! Xiao Jun is really good at talking, come on, come on! I have arranged the best position for you, and you can enjoy the performance in this seat, and that is the best quality appreciation. ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty, then Xiao Wang might as well be respectful!" Shin Jun-so followed the emperor cheerfully.
The outstanding charm of Shin Junxiu, the prince of the southern prince, and his generous conversation immediately left a better impression on everyone, and there were not a few girls present, except for the flat-faced Jun Chan, and the expressionless Liu Jiu'er, the expressions on the faces of the other girls were all with a hint of shyness and joy, too! No matter which unmarried girl, how can she not be moved when she meets such an excellent man, and even wants to show her beauty in front of Prince Nan immediately, so that Shin Junxiu can take a fancy to it, and it is okay to take it back as a concubine.
Shin Jun-so looked around, what he enjoyed most was the look of love and envy from everyone looking at him, this feeling of being sought after was very satisfying to him, because he grew up in such eyes since he was a child, whether it was in his own country or here, this feeling of satisfaction was carried with him.
However, it is obvious that his charm has not been shown to the extreme, because the expressions of the three girls present are not what he accepts, respectively, the princess sitting behind the third prince, she has an old-fashioned face, and she didn't even give him a straight eye, and then there is a girl next to the prime minister, she is expressionless, although she has set her eyes on him, but she can't let him see and appreciate it in her eyes, just look at it lightly. In the end, there was the girl in goose yellow clothes next to Taifu, she barely paid attention to him, but searched vigorously, her eyes kept around the direction of the Prime Minister's Mansion, who were she looking for? Who else will be more charismatic than him?
These four girls are the most special, their neglect of him makes Shin Junxiu very concerned, and he has never been treated like this. If they use this to get his attention, congratulations, they've succeeded!
"Xiaojun, this is the cicada!" The emperor personally introduced, after all, his daughter is the princess who is about to marry Shin Junxiu.
"Wow! Your Majesty, your princesses are all so beautiful, and the cicada princess in front of you is the most outstanding among them. Shin Junxiu smiled, his eyes fell on Jun Chan, and he took the initiative to say hello: "Hello, beautiful princess, in Xia Shin Junxiu, it's a pleasure to meet you, princess!" He was moved by his enthusiasm, but since the other party still had no expression, it turned out that the princess who had been keeping a straight face and not looking at him was called Cicada, was she the princess he was about to marry? Presumably so, otherwise His Majesty the Emperor would not have deliberately introduced it.
It's just that Shin Junxiu was a little unhappy, because he was very dissatisfied when he saw her expression, and even the emperor introduced it himself, she didn't give him a straight look, and she always looked like she didn't want to deal with it.
"Cicadas!" The emperor's voice became slightly serious, he helped to pull the strings, how could Jun Chan still have an uncomfortable expression, knowing that she was extremely reluctant in her heart, but even if she was making a scene, she had to give him a smile, otherwise where should he, the face of the lord of a country, go!
"Yes! Father! Resistant to the emperor's anger, Jun Chan still reluctantly responded.
"The prince of the south greets you! Why are you not polite at all! The emperor's voice became more serious.
The atmosphere also froze a little in an instant, Shin Junxiu is a person who knows how to read eyes, who cares about the rudeness of a princess, she is just an item to maintain peace between the two countries, her rudeness will not be put in his eyes at all, and when she marries Nanguo, she can be beaten into the cold palace in minutes, and now he will still behave very considerately.
"Why is the emperor angry, the girl's family is like this, the princess is embarrassed to be introduced by you so personally, this unintentional faux pas, how can Xiao Wang care!" Shen Junxiu's voice became considerate, and after speaking, he looked at Jun Chan: "Princess Cicada, Xiao Wang is definitely a considerate person, you can talk to Xiao Wang generously, even if you say something wrong, it doesn't matter." ”
Shin Junxiu's words made Jun Chan's eyes fall on him, she opened her mouth, and finally only said one sentence: "Thank you!" ”
"You're welcome! Later, Xiao Wang will visit the princess in person, now please invite the princess to enjoy the performance with Xiao Wang! ”
As soon as Shin Junxiu's words came out, the embarrassment was resolved in an instant, and his meaning was nothing more than to change the topic, so that each other's minds could be put down, and enjoying the performance was conducive to physical and mental pleasure.
"That's right! Watch the show, watch the show, come and play the music. The queen mother hurriedly answered: "Xiaojun is really a very considerate person, which girl follows Xiaojun you!" is her greatest blessing. ”
"Huh! The queen mother is polite. Shin Jun-so smiled.
The atmosphere also eased with the sound of music, after all, Kyoto's performances can't be seen in the south, and the national customs of each country are different, Shin Junxiu is willing to focus on the performance, so as to resolve the bad emotions that were ignored by the three girls in his heart, after all, many girls are still full of good feelings for him, why let these only three girls spoil their own interest!
……
The cold cellar, not even a trace of light can be seen, a very small oil lamp can not illuminate all the rooms, this is the most hidden place in the palace, this place is known only to the emperor, because he is located in the underground of the emperor's study, it is a cellar dug by a special person, used to detain the emperor wants to detain but does not want to reveal the identity of the person, so that no one else can find it.
Liu Haocheng sat on the ground on the side, the emperor treated him well, and did not put him in the prison, although this place did not see the light of day, damp and cold, but the emperor still intimately let the servants carry in two charcoal stoves, this charcoal stove is excellent, burning charcoal and emitting heat, but it will not flow smoke out and affect the air of the cellar.
"Haocheng, I didn't want to lock you up, you are a very good talent, you should have been reused by the court, but you disappointed me too much, you can take a fancy to all the girls, but you can't take a fancy to my princess, I am going to marry in the south today, I don't want your existence to interfere with her choice, for the sake of your father's face, I will detain you here for a few days, until the prince of the southern country leaves with the cicada, I will naturally let you out."
This is the last sentence that the emperor said after putting him in the cellar, he has never seen such a serious expression of the emperor, so now it is difficult for him to contribute, this cellar is sealed tightly, there is no shadow of ventilation at all, no matter what he shouts inside, no one will find out.
Liu Haocheng closed his eyes, leaned his back against the cold wall, the gray wall, as soon as his back leaned, a lot of dust would fall on the wall, of course, he naturally didn't care, who would care if he was clean, what he cared about most now was the mood of the cicada, how is the cicada now? It must be very sad and sad, will it be sad because you are looking for him? Once the emperor wants to hide one person, no one else can be found, Haocheng hopes that Jun Chan will not waste his energy on searching time, the more difficult the time, the more calm he must be, but Jun Chan's personality is the least calm, plus he is still missing, she will definitely not be able to calm down, which really makes Liu Haocheng worried.
