Zhuzhu was so sad, her little face was pillowed on her brother's shoulder, she didn't cry, only tears fell down one by one, looking pitiful.

Lychee was distressed and comforted several people.

Sheng Minglin also coaxed her softly: "Don't cry, the seventh brother may have just separated from his mother, so he is in a bad mood, it's not Zhuzhu's fault." Zhuzhu think, if Zhuzhu is separated from her mother, for several days at a time, will she not be happy? ”

The good thing about dumplings is that they are very reasonable.

She thought about it, propped herself up, and asked him with tears in her eyes: "Pot pot, can't you come if you tie the seven-pot pot or not?" Is it right to tie beads or not? ”

Sheng Minglin sighed in his heart, but still said: "It's okay Zhuzhu, leaving home to study, is something that every child will experience, but some are earlier and some later, and it is also a good thing for him to be able to go out of the palace for a long time." ”

Otherwise, he said that it was not right, Zhuzhu ran to beg the emperor again, what should he do!

The emperor's order in person cannot be changed overnight, even if you want to change it, you have to spend a year and a half, and you have to find a suitable reason, otherwise where will the emperor's face go.

Zhuzhu nodded obediently, lowered her head and picked her little hands, "Then his mother, are you very reluctant to him?" ”

Sheng Minglin said: "Yes, his mother is very reluctant to him, and he is also very reluctant to ......."

Before he finished speaking, Tuanzi suddenly thought of something, and suddenly covered his mouth, his eyes wide open.

Sheng Minglin looked at her inexplicably, Tuanzi added a small hand, blinked with big eyes, and leaned closer to him: "Guo Guo, you be quiet, don't say it." ”

Sheng Minglin: "......??" ”

He wanted to ask, what don't you say? But he was covered again.

There were still two tears left on Tuanzi's face, and he stretched out his little claws and picked at him, approached him very closely, and said in a small voice: "This kind of thing, we have to pretend not to do a few!" My mother said that those who buy things must be reluctant to give up the silver, but if we want his silver, we have to pretend that there are not a few! My brother is the same, Zhuzhu wants a seven-pot pot, so he has to pretend that his mother can't give up on him. ”

Sheng Minglin: "......"

She slowly moved away from him, looked at him with small eyes, and sighed: "Otherwise, what else can I do, the money is so good, the pot is so good, Zhuzhu just wants it." Person...... People ......" She scratched her head for a long time before she remembered that sentence: "People have to learn to make trade-offs." ”

Xiao Tuanzi has a milky voice, a serious book, and also comes with a cat with a crooked head.

Sheng Minglin was cute, and then sighed.

Princess Duan...... Really, all the strangeness of Zhuzhu, the pot has to be carried by the princess.

But he still followed the group and said: "Since this is the case, then let's go quickly, otherwise if Brother Seven comes back to find Zhuzhu, then Zhuzhu can't pretend not to know?" ”

Tuanzi nodded violently, thinking deeply: "Yes, yes." ”

So Sheng Minglin hugged her and left.

On the second day, Zhuzhu woke up in the morning and forgot about it, but when she saw the Seventh Prince in the afternoon, she thought about it again and quickly hid backwards.

As soon as the Seventh Prince raised his head when he heard the voice, he saw her hiding behind the red pillars, only revealing her small hands and feet and half of her face, her eyes turned around to peek at him, and she smirked at him, and the small fur bag on her head shook like a dragon's little horns, which was cute and lovely.

The Seventh Prince turned around suddenly, away from her, and put a spear to make the wind and rain impenetrable.

As a result, in the evening, Emperor Mingxi suddenly sent someone over to spread the word, saying that tomorrow would give the Seventh Prince and Sheng Minglin a holiday, and let them accompany Zhuzhu to pray for blessings.

Sheng Minglin was still a little confused, but fortunately, now the family eats dinner together, and he asked when he ate.

Princess Duan only said: "Ming'er is Zhuzhu's birthday, and I want to go to her godmother's place." ”

She paused for a moment and said, "I guess the emperor heard that you had a good time on the mountain, so he thought about asking you to accompany Zhuzhu and coax her, right?" ”

Sheng Minglin was stunned.

That's right! Zhu Zhu was born on the third day of the third month of March, and tomorrow is Zhu Zhu's third birthday.

Sheng Minglin really forgot, and was thinking about what to give her, when he saw Zhuzhu's sad face, Sheng Minglin was a little strange: "What's wrong with Zhuzhu?" ”

"Alas!" Tuanzi sighed like a little adult: "Zhuzhu doesn't like to celebrate her birthday!" ”

Sheng Minglin was surprised: "Why? ”

Tuanzi frowned and said, "Zhuzhu doesn't like her godmother to hang money." ”

Sheng Minglin still didn't understand, and was about to ask again, but Duan Wang Ye said directly: "Don't ask more, it's just customs." ”

Sheng Minglin looked at him with a gloomy expression, a little surprised, looked at him, Duan Wang Ye met his eyes, and did not look away, in the end, it was Sheng Minglin who looked away first.

Princess Duan coaxed her softly: "Zhuzhu'er, when you come back tomorrow, your uncle and cousin will come to play with Zhuzhu." ”

Zhuzhu was a little more energetic: "Don't they go to school?" ”

"Come on," Princess Duan said with a smile, "so they didn't take a break when they were on vacation, so they saved up for leave together tomorrow." ”

Dango was a little happier: "Okay! ”

While the two of them were talking, Duan Wang Ye said to Sheng Minglin again: "Since the emperor said it, you can go, you don't have to show up, just go through the motions." ”

What to say?

Sheng Minglin is a heavy heart, and he has been pondering since he got out of there.

Duan Wangye's unhappiness was not concealed at all, but on Zhuzhu's birthday, why should he be unhappy? Why are you throwing tantrums at him?

He thought about it, called the little guy in and asked.

There are many people in the house who know about this, and it's not a secret, so the little guy told her.

It is said that Zhuzhu was born prematurely, and was born in less than eight months, and was not in good health when she was first born.

Every year on her birthday, Princess Duan has to take her to see her godmother, and the godmother has to give her a padlock, that is, a copper coin with red thread, and hang it on the neck of Zhuzhu, one for one year, until she is twelve years old.

Premature ...... Sheng Minglin's heart was inexplicably shocked.

For people like Duanwangfu, there must have been an accident when they were born prematurely, and this accident is related to the people in his family.

Sheng Minglin hesitated, but still asked the little guy: "How many years have you been in the mansion?" ”

The little servant said: "The slave has been in the house for less than three years. ”

Sheng Minglin was a little disappointed, a little relaxed, and said, "Have you heard about my biological mother?" Or, you can help me inquire, and I will reward you heavily. ”

The little guy peeked at him.

Sheng Minglin asked keenly: "What do you know?" ”

The little servant hesitated for a moment, and then whispered: "The slave doesn't dare to inquire, the prince cares about this very much, chewing the root of his tongue, and the slave's life is not guaranteed." ”

Sheng Minglin muttered, "Do you care about this? ”

He looked at him: "You tell me that I will never tell anyone that you said it." ”

Xiao Wu was originally his minion, and it was no surprise that he was his slave all his life, and after hesitating for a long time, he still said in a very small voice: "When the slave entered the mansion, the princess Niangniang had already given birth, and at that time, there were still people who scolded the Chen family."

He paused, looked at Sheng Minglin, Sheng Minglin nodded at him, and then he said: "It seems that she made some tricks to make the princess have a miscarriage...... Committed suicide. ”

Sheng Minglin was stunned.

He didn't know anything about it, no matter what he had done before.

He always thought that it was after the death of his biological mother that Duan Wang Ye remarried the Xie family, but it turned out that his mother died after they got married?

And suicide again?

He was still thinking about the revenge of the Seven Princes who killed his mother, and he couldn't let go of it, but he didn't expect that among them, a human life was also involved!!

His face turned pale, and he said after a while: "Is there anything else?" What else do you know? ”

The little girl was a little scared, and whispered: "Later, Duan Wang Ye punished a few people, and strictly ordered his subordinates not to discuss this matter and not to mention the Chen family." At that time, the slave had just arrived, and he didn't dare to ask, and the slave didn't know anything else. ”

Sheng Minglin took a long breath.

After a long time, he whispered, "You go down first." ”

The little servant bowed silently and retreated.
