"The second sister is a hard-working person, if the sixth master really has pity, from now on, don't mention this matter again. The second sister has broken her head now, and she can't remember the past, maybe it's a good thing for her. To make her remember these things is to make her carry the pain all the time. ”

Rong Run nodded: "Naturally, this king will never mention it again." In the past, there was no chance to protect her, and from now on, this king will not let anyone hurt Yue'er again. ”

"Although this matter is not the second sister's fault, but it is not fair to the sixth master, if this matter makes the prince unhappy in the future, please ask the prince to give the second sister a letter of resignation, just save some face for the Wei family. ”

Yuan Yue, who lost her memory, was like a blank piece of paper, Yuan Xi looked at her through the window for a while, and saw her clear eyes. That look, just like when I was young, was so clean that there was no trace of impurities. It's been a long time since she's seen such a look in Yuan Yue's eyes, and as for how long it has been, Yuan Xi doesn't know, probably since they grew up, this purity has disappeared.

Yuan Xi slowly walked down the steps, and the afterglow of the setting sun shrouded the attic in a corner of Prince Bao's mansion, fainting a red glow.

Ling'er stood in the verandah of the palace, boredly twisting a morning glory that was climbing, and a light halo lingered on her cheeks.

Life is like this, when you come unconsciously, you move forward, I don't know how long you have walked, and when you look back, you find that the road has been a long time and you can't see the starting point.

Ling'er took Yuanxi's hand and said, "This fall, for the second miss, I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse." ”

"In fact, the ability to forget is also a blessing, like what we can't forget, we can only bear it for the rest of our lives. Yuan Xi glanced at Ling'er: "Now I only hope that the second sister will never come to her senses." ”

Facing the past is a painful thing, Ling'er silently lowered her head, in fact, how can people in this world not be like this?

"Master, it's hard to get out of it, do you want to go to the Wei Mansion to meet the little prince?" Ling Er asked quietly.

Won-hee glanced at her and nodded.

The people in the Wei Mansion are all taking care of Yuan Yue in Prince Bao's Mansion, and only Cheng Yong is at home alone. In the old lady's room, the two old and serious grandmothers took care of the baby, and for fear of arousing suspicion, Yuan Xi glanced through the window.

"Student Wei Chengyong, knock to see the queen's mother Chitose Chitose Chitose. ”

When Yuan Xi heard the voice, he couldn't help but be stunned.

"Big brother is here, my family doesn't have to do such a big gift, please get up. ”

As soon as Yuan Xi raised his hand, Cheng Yong got up and said with a smile: "What is the queen mother looking at?"

Yuan Xi smiled slightly and said, "I was going out of the palace to see the second sister, but when I came out of Prince Bao's mansion, I suddenly felt a little homesick, so I brought Ling'er back to have a look." How can there be a baby here?"

Cheng Yong smiled: "Oh, my mother said that one day at noon, I picked up an abandoned baby on the side of the street, looked strange and pitiful, and carried it back to the house." My grandmother and father said that there were no children in the family for many years, and it was just right to keep them in the house. This kid is very worry-free and cute. Do you want the student to take Min'er out for her mother to see?"

Yuan Xi nodded with a smile: "Okay." ”

Cheng Yong knocked lightly on the door and shouted inside: "Mother Zhang, sister-in-law Li, take Min'er out." ”

The two old mothers answered and took a small baby out. Min'er is very quiet, in the words of the old lady, this child has a big heart, doesn't care about anything, can fall asleep anywhere, but is much more well-behaved than the first time he brought it.

Min'er slept in her grandmother's arms, her small mouth slightly open, revealing the tip of a small tongue, and with these crystal saliva.

"This lady, why don't you come and hug him?" said the mother who was holding the child.

Cheng Yong frowned and said, "Mother Zhang, don't call me indiscriminately, this is the queen's mother." ”

The two old grandmothers were startled and were about to kneel down in a hurry, but Yuan Xi hurriedly pulled the one holding the child: "This is in the Wei Mansion, no need to be formal." ”

The two grandmothers bowed one after another and said, "The slaves and maids entered the house late, and they haven't seen the queen's mother, please forgive the queen's mother." ”

Ling'er smiled and said, "Are you here to take care of this child?"

Mother Zhang nodded: "Back to the girl, it was the old lady who hired the two of us to take care of the little master." ”

Ling'er raised her eyebrows: "Little young master, didn't you say that this is a child who was picked up?"

Cheng Yong smiled: "I picked it up, my father said, since he entered the Wei Mansion, he is a member of the Wei family, and this child will be raised as his grandchildren, with the surname of the Wei family." ”

Ling'er took Xiao Min'er and said with a smile: "So, this kid's name is Wei Min?"

Ling'er brought Min'er to Yuanxi's side: "Master, how strong do you see this little Min'er growing?"

Cheng Yong said with a smile: "When this child came, he grew sturdy, and the swaddling clothes used were all high-quality materials, like children from large families." ”

Won-hee didn't pay attention to Chengyong, just lowered his head and teased the child. I haven't seen him for a few days, this little Min'er has long been unable to remember who his mother is, as long as someone is willing to hold him, he can laugh, so he will not be in a hurry to find his mother.

Yuan Xi breathed a long sigh of relief, and felt a little stunned in his heart, from now on, the fates of these two children will be very different.

Yuan Xi raised his head, and Ling'er sent Xiao Min'er back to Zhang's mother and said, "It's cool in autumn, you better take him back, so as not to be blown by the wind." ”

Cheng Yong was still standing, holding a book in his hand.

Yuan Xi was a little strange: "Why did the eldest brother start reading again? Didn't you say that Enko no longer participated in this year's event?"

Cheng Yong was speechless for a while, but he smiled cutely and covered the book behind his back: "Scholar, do you want to get a fame?"

Ling'er looked at Yuan Xi and swallowed back the words raw.

"Then, the little sister wishes the eldest brother success. Ling'er, it's time for us to go back. ”

"A ...... in the forehead" Cheng Yong wanted to speak and stopped.

Yuan Xi turned his head: "Is there anything else going on with the eldest brother?"

Cheng Yong's gaze was a little evasive, like a child who had done something wrong: "Actually, I want to ask, ask ......"

"What does Big Brother want to ask?" Won-hee and Ling'er turned to look at him.

Being stared at by these two bundles of eyes, Cheng Yong's face suddenly turned red.

"I want to ask, princess...... Is she okay?"

After Cheng Yong asked this sentence, he felt a little stunned, as if a heart disease that had been stagnant for a long time suddenly got rid of the root of the disease.

Yuan Xi stared at him and asked indifferently, "Why did the eldest brother think of asking this?"

Cheng Yong was stunned: "It's nothing, I'm just asking casually." ”

Yuan Xi smiled slightly: "Okay, what does it have to do with the eldest brother?"

Cheng Yong suddenly looked at Yuan Xi: "Is my sister blaming me?"

Yuan Xi said with a smile: "I'm an outsider, what right do I have to blame the eldest brother?"

"Because...... It was because at that time...... "Cheng Yong was so stumbling that he couldn't say a complete sentence for a long time."

"The princess is very good," Yuan Xi's voice was faint: "I heard that the queen mother is choosing a concubine for the princess, Princess Chenxiang is the queen mother's most beloved daughter, and it is a great blessing to be able to kiss her." Presumably, those princes and princes will do their best to express themselves. ”

"But......" Cheng Yong choked again.

He also hated himself for being like this, but he really couldn't pull off this face, he had some feelings, and he would cherish it after he knew that he would lose it, and he only realized his feelings for Chenxiang after he heard Chenxiang say the word "let go".

But the words have already been spoken, and the heart has been broken, and now he turns around and goes back to say that he loves her, Cheng Yong doesn't know whether this is a blessing or a curse for Chenxiang. Maybe she said to let go, but she really let go. Even if her feelings are as fierce as the fire of the prairie fire, she will still be indifferent.

"But what?" asked Won-hee.

"But those who do their best should not be chosen as captains. He said.

Ling'er was stunned, those who are positive about the princess don't be concubines, do they want the princess to marry a husband who is as cold as ice? Like Cheng Yong, he speaks ill of the princess every day?

"Why?" asked Won-hee.

"The people who try their best to show may not be sincere to the princess, what they want is just a title of the captain of the horse, they marry the princess, and they can continue to take concubines, take care of the outer house, and do whatever they want, so isn't the princess unladylike?"

Yuan Xi stared at him for a while, and said with a smile: "The eldest brother seems to care too much about the princess's affairs. What kind of concubine to choose, that is a matter between the queen mother and the emperor, whether to choose positive or honest, it depends on whether that person is in line with the princess's eyes. Besides, the purpose of marrying a courtier under the royal princess is not pure, maybe it is also the intention of enveloping the ministers, doesn't the eldest brother understand this truth?"

Cheng Yong naturally understands this truth, but what's the use of him understanding it? This is exactly what he is worried about.

"Does the emperor want to use Princess Chenxiang's marriage to win over the courtiers? Princess Chenxiang is the emperor's own sister!"

Cheng Yong was a little impatient, and his voice also rose higher, Ling'er was a little surprised to see it, he was the one who hurt the princess the most, and today the person who is worried about the princess is also him. It's weird.

Yuan Xi was silent for a moment and said, "How can it be? Emperor Gao also married his only daughter to Qingguo to show his sincerity. Later, Emperor Gao waved his troops north and destroyed Qingguo in one fell swoop. This precedent is not from the current emperor. ”

Cheng Yong was speechless for a while: "I'm just, but I just think that in order to win over the courtiers, the dignified emperor marries the princess, which is really detrimental to the emperor's prestige." ”

Yuan Xi smiled: "In the eyes of the eldest brother, what is the emperor's majesty?"

Seeing that Cheng Yong didn't speak, Yuan Xi said again: "The eldest brother doesn't even care about the prestige of the first emperor, let alone the current saint? In the heart of the eldest brother, there is only a piece of true love for Miss Lanyu, isn't it?"

Cheng Yong's expression gradually became serious, turning into a haze: "Students don't dare to think like this. ”

"The eldest brother didn't dare to think about it, but the eldest brother had the courage to do it. Yuan Xi glanced at him and said to Ling'er: "Ling'er, let's go." ”
