073: Open the bow without turning back (2nd watch)
When Xie Jin came over, Chang Xi was about to have dinner, and after seeing him, he smiled and said, "Have you eaten?" Why don't you use it together? ”
Xie Jin didn't say anything, stepped forward and hugged her into his arms, feeling the aroma in his arms, and then he felt alive.
It is rare to see his fragile appearance, Chang Xi stroked his back to soothe his emotions, in fact, things have come to this point, and it tests a person's patience, he has endured the reputation of Xie Jia's son for more than 20 years, and now he is ready to unload, and it is reasonable that he is not very happy.
Seeing this, the tiger girl who was about to set up a meal retreated first, gave the space to the lovers, and fed the mosquitoes with Zhou Nan, who was interested outside.
After a long time, Chang Xi asked, "Have you seen the emperor?" ”
When Xie Jin heard this, he let go of Chang Xi, but he still half-hugged her, nodded at her, and said in a muffled voice, "I saw it." ”
In fact, it's just like that, it's just a bad old man, but he tosses so much that everyone is uneasy, and he naturally rejects this person.
But because of the situation and status, he has to endure it, after all, it has been more than 20 years, and he understands the truth of chaos and planning if he can't bear it.
"It's always going to come if it's going to come anyway." Chang Xi comforted him and said, in her opinion, the old emperor is not worthy of the throne, and he should have stepped down and bowed a long time ago, but such a rebellious remark cannot be spoken.
Anyway, the two have the same mind, as long as he can understand what she said, he only smiled in a low voice, "If you don't understand it at such an old age, you will be punished, and it is not the word cultivation that can save him." ”
Chang Xi saw that his mood was improving, so he raised his voice and asked Hu Niu to bring in dinner, this person is iron rice and steel, and he has to eat enough to have the strength to work.
Xie Jin glanced at the Yiyang dishes on the table, and then felt that his index finger moved, "The most uncomfortable thing after coming to the capital is the food in the north, it's okay in the Xie family, after all, he is from Yiyang, and he eats authentic Yiyang dishes, but when he enters the palace, even if the meal is an imperial meal, it is not very appetizing." ”
Chang Xi gave him a chopstick to stir-fry the lotus root, "The human stomach is the most difficult to conquer." ”
Xie Jin thought deeply about this.
He has no impression of his parents, most of them are from others, and now he entered the palace, everyone said that he looked very much like his dead father, and even the old emperor looked at him in a daze, but he didn't feel much, a person who had only heard of it, how could he not come to reality.
In fact, in his mind, the image of Xie He's father is more real.
"I'm going to stay in the capital during this time." He said a little depressedly.
Chang Xi was not surprised that he would be left by the emperor's side, after all, he was the eldest grandson of the emperor, and the emperor was also a human being, and it was reasonable for him to want to observe this eldest grandson up close, "Then if you behave well and get his approval, how much trouble will you have to save." ”
Xie Jin didn't think so, the emperor thought he was in control of everything, but when the tiger is old, he is old, and there are many monkeys in this mountain who want to be the king, and the situation is still unclear.
Chang Xi opened the pot of Huadiao, poured him a cup, and then filled himself with a cup, "Pay attention to everything and be right, when the time comes, you will have a lot less resistance." ”
In fact, she knew very well in her heart that Xie Jin's life experience was destined for him to fight for this position, which was related to his net worth and life, but how to fight was a science.
But it's not her turn to worry about this, all she needs to do is stabilize his big rear, as for whether she will lose, she really hasn't thought too much about it.
As the saying goes, there is no turning back when opening the bow.
"How's it going on your side?" Xie Jin no longer mentioned his troubles, but asked Chang Xi worriedly, "In my opinion, you still have to send more people to your side, after all, some people can't be guarded against......
"No, so as not to startle the snake, and finally lure the snake out of the hole, but you can't let them retract back." Chang Xi refused, she took a sip of Huadiao wine, "You have to catch people, so that the later plays can be sung, otherwise my early plays will be sung in vain." ”
When she was mistaken by Wei Guangnan, she decided to plan the plan, so after Wei Guangnan found someone to follow her secretly, she directly exposed herself in front of everyone.
God is helping her in the back, and she accidentally met Han Yongzhu, which saved her a lot of things, and sure enough, Han Yongzhu at this time is no longer the person she was at that time, obviously she is already an insider, so Mama Tao behind her will definitely make a move, she just waits.
Xie Jin was still not very relieved, but he knew that it would be useless to persuade her, so he could only take more precautions to prevent her from really falling into danger.
"Understood, I'll accompany you to Princess Qianrong's mansion."
Chang Xi frowned, she didn't really want to involve him in her own affairs, she was used to handling things by herself, but looking at his determined appearance, she also knew that she couldn't convince him, so she had to let him follow.
The next day, she woke up early to change into the clothes she had prepared in the morning, which was understated and luxurious, in line with her usual dressing style.
Xie Jin came early in the morning, and after helping her into the sedan chair, he rode a horse and followed her.
The group went to the mansion of the eldest princess of Qianrong, along the way, many people stopped and dismounted to greet Xie Jin, this is the nearest celebrity around the emperor, although he has not really recognized his ancestors and returned to his ancestors, but Xie Jin appeared like this, everyone knew that he was the orphan of the abolished prince.
Since the abolition of the crown prince, no prince has been made a prince, and no one can guess the emperor's thoughts on the prince, so Xie Jin, the eldest grandson, is also a strong contender, otherwise the emperor would not give him an official position to stay by his side to observe.
So naturally someone came to burn his hot stove.
Xie Jin also generously returned the salute with everyone, and his attitude was extremely humble, which made many adults have a good impression of him.
As for Chang Xi in the sedan chair, she was glad that she didn't choose to ride alone and travel, otherwise she would have become the object of attention from others, which is not good, now across the sedan chair, others can guess at most, which is still within the range of what she can bear.
Arrived at Princess Qianrong's mansion, when he helped Chang Xi get out of the sedan chair, Chang Xi smiled and said, "You have become a popular fried chicken now." ”
"It's your skin." He looked like he couldn't do anything about her.
This made Chang Xi laugh, but in the eldest princess's mansion, she was still quite restrained.
"What are you so happy about?"
Hearing this familiar voice, Chang Xi stepped forward to salute Yuan Hao, "I've seen Lord Yuan." ”
Yuan Hao smiled, "Why are there so many courtesies?" Knowing that you came to the capital, I thought that I would go to the Yunlai Inn to see you, but in the end I couldn't make the trip because I was too busy......"
Chang Xi smiled, knowing that his words were just an excuse, in the capital here, Yuan Hao, as the son of the eldest princess, was watched by someone to watch his every move, and it would not be a good thing if he was too close to himself, so this was not incomprehensible.
"My mother doesn't eat people, you can answer whatever she asks." Before entering the inner room, Yuan Hao said in a low voice.
Chang Xi said with a smile, "Don't worry, Lord Yuan, I don't treat the eldest princess as a flood beast. ”
As for what it was, she didn't say it, and Yuan Hao didn't ask.
Xie Jin shook Chang Xi's hand and motioned for her to stand on her side.
Looking at the intimate actions of the two, Yuan Hao's eyes darkened, there was nothing wrong with him, but he just wanted to stand beside her and support her.
The grandmother who was waiting for the eldest princess came out with a curtain at this time, and saluted Yuan Hao and Jin, and then said, "The princess instructed that she wanted to meet Chang Niangzi alone, and invited the two masters to sit outside." ”
Yuan Hao and Xie Jin didn't say anything, and after giving Chang Xi a reassuring look, they followed the maid arranged by the grandmother outside.
"Mrs. Chang comes with me." When this grandmother faced Chang Xi, her attitude was not good, but it was not bad either.
Chang Xi didn't find fault with her, as she lifted the curtain and went inside, while lifting the curtain several times, she entered the warm pavilion where the eldest princess was, looking at this magnificent room, she was not stunned, but stood in a regular manner, her eyes only looked at the one acre and three points of land in front of her, and did not look around.
The eldest princess of Qianrong kept looking at Chang Xi, this was the first time she had seen this woman, she thought she was a fox, but now she found that other people's behavior could not be more regular.
It made her first impression a little better.
The grandmother who led Chang Xi in was busy demonstrating to Chang Xi and teaching her how to give gifts to the eldest princess.
Chang Xi just glanced at it casually, and then saluted the eldest princess almost the same, "The folk girl has seen Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, Your Royal Highness Wan'an." ”
The eldest princess of Qianrong did not let her get up for the first time, but held her grandmother's hand forward, and the hand painted with Kou Dan stretched out and lifted Chang Xi's chin and picked it up, which was to look at her appearance.
Chang Xi also raised his eyes to look at the eldest princess without showing weakness, it is worthy of being an aunt who is related to Xie Jin by blood, the aunt and nephew are quite similar in appearance, but the eldest princess is old, and her face can't help but be a little old, but she is a beautiful half-old.
"You're not a little daring."
Staring at her like this, the eldest princess said that she hadn't really met a few so daring.
"Her Royal Highness the eldest princess is bright and generous, and the folk girl was stunned for a while."
These words pleased the eldest princess, but she actually let go of Chang Xi's chin after laughing loudly, "Get up." ”
"Thank you, Your Highness the Eldest Princess." Chang Xili is thoughtful and authentic.
The eldest princess sat back on the main seat, but although she put the money, she still pointed to the first position and motioned for Chang Xi to sit down and reply.
Chang Xi sat down neither humbly nor arrogantly, with a casual and generous attitude, but he was not restrained at all.
The eldest princess couldn't help but be secretly surprised, as far as she knew, this Chang family was just a peasant girl, where did she get the confidence to behave so casually in front of herself? Shouldn't it be honest and fearful?
"Because of you, the eldest son of Princess Ben has rejected a good marriage, what do you say about this?"
Chang Xi imagined in his heart that the eldest princess would talk to him, but he never guessed that she would actually mention Yuan Hao's marriage, this is really wronged, Yuan Hao doesn't want to marry Han Yongzhu What does it have to do with him, what is the problem of wanting to add to it?
So she looked directly at the eldest princess and said, "The folk girl and the original lord are just nodding friends, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, the folk girl really can't understand what the eldest princess said." ”
