Jalan Dong Palace, verse 43
It's better not to get along than to have a deep grudge.
Only my aunt should not go too far, and it is not impossible to resolve it.
After drinking a cup of tea in the tea room, Qu Ningxi took Ying Chu and went to the mountain behind the White Horse Temple for a turn.
From afar, they saw Ming En, the Lu family was the grandfather of the crown prince, and the East Palace naturally wanted to help.
There was also Ding Xuekui, who immediately walked over when she saw Qu Ningxi.
"Did Wanyu come out of the tea room?" She smiled and looked behind Qu Ningxi.
Qu Ningxi nodded: "I'm planning to go around, do you want to go with me." β
Ding Xuekui shook her head and refused, she held a fan in her right hand and pinched the Jinpa in her left hand, "It's autumn, but it's still as hot as summer, I want to go to the house and stay." β
After speaking, she looked the other party up and down, and suddenly said: "It is said that the beauty has ice muscles and jade bones, cool and sweatless, and this is the case when I look at Wan Yu today!" β
"Who doesn't sweat?" Qu Ningxi couldn't help laughing.
Ding Xuekui laughed and said, "It's better if you don't have a relationship with me." β
She was afraid that the fourth sister would affect them, but fortunately, her mother made up her mind and sent the fourth sister away temporarily.
Qu Ningxi knew what she was talking about, and didn't want to mention those unpleasant ones, so she rushed her to the tea room to cool off, "Go in, there is an ice basin inside." β
Ding Xuekui didn't rush to leave, and said that she wanted to make an appointment for her to travel with Qu Chanyin during the Autumn Festival, "You have to spare time, don't be asked to leave by others." β
After doing the math, the Mid-Autumn Festival is indeed not far away, just after the release of the Autumn Festival.
If she didn't care about Pei Yingxiao, she might have made an appointment with Wang Jinyi that day, now......
"No one asks me out, don't ask others to ask someone else to leave," Qu Ningxi said: "Didn't the eldest princess want to arrange for you to see each other?" β
Ding Xuekui shook the hand of the fan and paused: "...... It's hard to say. β
She has reached the age of seeing each other, but there is a nineteen-year-old fourth sister to be married.
In case the Mid-Autumn Festival calls people back for reunion, it is estimated that they will not even think about anything.
Ding Xuekui secretly said goodbye to Qu Ningxi.
After she left, Ying Chu whispered on the side: "Miss, don't agree too quickly, what if the master asks you out that day." β
"Him?" Qu Ningxi pursed the corners of her lips, "There is a family banquet in the palace, how can you get out of the way?" β
Moreover, she didn't want to have a private meeting with the prince......
The master and servant went one after the other, turning most of the back mountain of the White Horse Temple.
Perhaps because of the abundant sun, most of them hid to enjoy the coolness, and there were not many pedestrians encountered, and it was quite quiet.
Qu Ningxi went to see the famous maple tree of the White Horse Temple, a hundred-year-old tree, with a thick and round trunk and lush greenery.
It's not orange-red, it's not orange-red, it's a 'green and yellow' mixed color.
After seeing the big maple tree, I walked up the stairs and turned to a camphor tree.
In the distance, I saw two people standing under the tree.
Ying Chu's eyes were good, and he said, "It's the county lord of Yaping and Miss Lu." β
There were no maids around them, but in my impression, Miss Lu didn't seem to like to take the maid out.
Qu Ningxi stepped forward, and only a few steps closer came when he heard Yaping's rather unkind words.
"Is it hard to understand what the lord of the county said? Let you find someone to marry as soon as possible, don't worry about what you shouldn't worry about! β
Yaping's "shouldn't be worried" is naturally the prince, she bared her little tiger teeth, and said, "Be your cousin!" β
Previously, Qu Ningxi heard Ding Xuekui mention that the county lord was targeting Lu Yanhua and Zheng Sijun, and looking at it at this time, it was indeed true.
These two people are the most popular candidates for the crown princess at the moment.
But Yaping shouldn't have a chance, she hasn't given up yet.
If her brother marries the princess, she will not be able to marry the crown prince.
Lu Yanhua squinted at Yaping with cold eyes, her eyes could not be said to be kind, she was born tall, even if she didn't say a word, she faintly pressed her.
However, Yaping is not a Shangjing girl, she grew up in the northwest, how can she be a vegetarian.
At that moment, his hands crossed his waist and his eyes widened: "What, are you not convinced?" β
"Miss Lu."
Qu Ningxi deliberately spoke up and interrupted the county lord of Yaping.
The two looked at each other, one with a calm face and the other with a cocked chin.
Qu Ningxi looked at Yaping and said with a smile: "County Lord, I have something to say to Miss Lu." β
"What can you say to her?" Yaping's eyes darkened and looked at her.
The relatives of the second prince and the relatives of the crown prince became friends?
Qu Ningxi didn't explain, Lu Yanhua said lightly: "If the county lord doesn't leave, I'll sue my cousin." β
Yaping was amused: "This county lord hasn't done anything, why not be afraid of a villain like you!" β
"The county lord might as well try, cousin believes me or you." Lu Yanhua's face was expressionless.
Yaping was shocked: "You threaten me? Still trying to frame me? β
She didn't do anything!
But obviously, of course, the prince would believe this surnamed Lu.
Yaping glared at her and quit in hatred.
Qu Ningxi watched from the sidelines, this county lord had a straightforward temper, seemed to be a little lacking in heart, and looked willful, but it was different from Ming's wife.
Ming's willfulness is ruthless and cold-blooded in her bones, and she will make extreme moves.
"Is Miss Qu specifically willing to help me?"
Lu Yanhua glanced at her, lifted the corner of her skirt, and sat on the ground.
Under the shade of the trees, the slender woman in the white dress sits in a casual posture that is very comfortable to look at.
Qu Ningxi knew why Miss Lu made people feel relaxed, because she didn't care what others thought, and she didn't look at others.
"It's not like helping you," Qu Ningxi sat down, coughed lightly, and asked, "I want to send something to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince...... Does Miss Lu have any advice? β
She did it on purpose, asking this kind of thing in front of this candidate for the crown princess, will it make the other party mind?
What will Lu Yanhua do? Meddle to get her to leave?
If there is a choice, Qu Ningxi still doesn't want to go to the East Palace.
In the future, if she is trapped in the harem, so much dowry will not be spent, and even, she may meet someone who can't tolerate her, find fault and even frame her? Maybe it's not going to happen.
If Lu Yanhua doesn't mind, then ...... Then she referred to the other party's opinion and prepared a thank you gift for Pei Yingxiao.
Take it one step at a time.
"Miss Qu doesn't hide it in front of me?" Lu Yanhua sat with her knees crossed, put her head lightly, and turned her head to look at her.
"Youβdon't you know......" Qu Ningxi tugged at her little finger, looking forward to her next words.
If Lu Yanhua is willing to help dispel the prince's thoughts, maybe they can win both of them.
Lu Yanhua didn't show that she minded, and she didn't tell her what to send.
He said softly, "I'm in a bad mood today. β
Qu Ningxi came back to her senses, and couldn't help but regret that she was confused, why did she choose today, she felt that it was too much......
Lu Yanhua buried her face, and she felt even more guilty when she saw this, "Miss Lu, I apologize to you." β
Lu Yanhua was silent.
Qu Ningxi frowned and put her hand on the back of her hand, "Miss Lu, I'm sorry ......."
"Is there any sugar?" He asked.
Qu Ningxi touched his waist and shook his head regretfully: "No." β
"Lonely here."
Coldly, a clear voice interjected.
Qu Ningxi turned around in surprise and found Pei Yingxiao smiling from behind him.
Out of the blue.
"Your Highness?"
How could he be here, walking without making a sound.
Lu Yanhua then raised her head and said in a wistful tone: "Cousin." β
Qu Ningxi thought to herself, she said excessive things to Miss Lu, which made her low, would His Highness be harsh for this......
In the next moment, she was pulled up by Pei Yingxiao's hand.
He instructed Ming En behind him: "Give Miss Cousin a piece of candy, don't give too much." β
There may be someone passing by here, Pei Yingxiao let go of his hand and motioned for Qu Ningxi to follow.
The latter hesitated and refused to move, and only took her away?
Could it be that the prince and the Lu family really won't kiss each other?
Then, the crown princess is more likely to fall on Zheng Sijun.
If it were Miss Zheng, this temptation would be useless.
Even if Qu Ningxi has never intersected with her, she knows that she has a pure temperament, and she really doesn't look like she will cut off the prince's other peach blossoms.
Pei Yingxiao glanced behind him: "Come here." β
Qu Ningxi didn't want to continue to grind, and stubbornly kept up with his pace.
The two entered a tea room, and Ming Enyingchu stood guard outside the door.
Cover the door, and there are lonely men and widows.
