Chapter 32: Mother and Daughter Night Talk

Jiuxi never went to Zhongli Xiang's mansion when he was young, and when he was a child, he was led by a maid to greet his mother, and he also saw this left minister. Noble, subtle and detached.

At that time, I only thought that this person was good-looking, no wonder my mother often called him alone to talk about court affairs. As a generation of virtuous saints, the only thing that is not so virtuous about my mother is her love of beauty. This is also often talked about among the subjects, about which beauty Her Majesty has a crush on, and it once became an after-dinner tea among the people.

And the left prime minister in front of him, with his own light and graceful face and noble and elegant body, has successfully made the female monarch stop for more than ten years, and has not been moved so far.

Now the relationship between the two is also as tasteless as clear soup, and the only thing that can prove that they also had a romantic past may be her existence.

Even if Jiuxi has never called Zhongli a father on the bright side, Zuo Xiang has never had half affection for her, up to the court, down to the market, everyone knows that Jimo Jiuxi is the daughter of the female monarch Jimo and Zuo Xiang Zhongli Qianyue.

She, the first heir to the throne, did it as a matter of course. After eating in the Xiangfu and drinking half a cup of tea, Jiuxi rubbed his nose and raised his eyes to look at Zhongli who was drinking tea on the other side.

Only then did I remember the purpose of this trip to Zhongli Prime Minister's Mansion.

Then he said seemingly unintentionally: "Lord Zuo Xiang has always been cold to his mother, but what is the reason?"

Zuo Xiang's hand holding the teacup moved slightly, he didn't know when Her Royal Highness the little princess was so concerned about him and her mother's affairs.

I've never seen her care before.

"It's nothing, Weichen is just a courtesy of a monarch and a minister. ”

Jiuxi shook his head and said helplessly, "Lord Zuo Xiang, with a little girl who is not yet old enough to experience the love between men and women, do you need to be so perfunctory?"

It's this set of high-sounding words again, and she's not stupid. But for Zuo Xiang's attitude, she is really a little depressed.

For this kind of bend, if you go around the bend with him, he can accompany you around the nine bends and eighteen bends. Jiuxi simply didn't talk to him, and said directly, "I heard that when Mujun was young, he lost his beloved for you, Lord Zuo Xiang, and later gave me a marriage to the apprentice of the person who was let down by her in order to compensate, does Zuo Xiang know if there is such a thing?"

Zhongli guessed that Her Royal Highness the Empress had nothing to do but ascended the Three Treasures Palace, but he didn't expect it to be like this.

It's just that there is a lot of involvement involved, and there is no need to talk to the little girl in front of you.

He bowed his head and said, "There is indeed such a thing." ”

frowned again and asked, "The female military monarch originally wanted to wait for His Highness to announce this matter to the world, but how did His Highness know about it?"

Jiu Xi saw that he couldn't ask anything on Zhongli's side, and he was afraid that he would be tricked out more words by this master who was quite deep in his heart, so he said, "Seeing that the mother is about to come back from hunting, it's time for me to go back to the palace." ”

Zhongli didn't ask, only got up and said, "Congratulations to Your Highness." ”

Jiuxi left Zhongli Xiangfu and returned to the palace, and before he reached the door, he saw a group of guards carrying a cage with a white lion that had always been shiny.

This is a rare thing unique to the Tian Yuan Dynasty, the red-eyed snow lion.

When she was a child, she asked her mother for a little snow lion that she hunted, but her mother stingily refused. Now that such a mighty and domineering adult snow lion has been hunted, the mother has sent it to Zuo Xiang's Mansion without any distress.

Jiuxi couldn't help but complain in his heart, sure enough, his mother was the left phase of true love, and I was just an accident.

......

Jiuxi returned to the palace, and saw Qi Luofan standing at the gate of her palace with a sword in his chest, like a door god.

The little maid Yu'er hurriedly ran out of it and asked him, "Lord Qi, do you know where His Highness has gone......?"

Before he finished speaking, Qi Luofan looked at Jiuxi and said, "It's here." ”

"Well, who's coming? won't it be the female monarch......" Yu'er said hurriedly, with a frightened look on her face, and hurriedly turned around to look, only to see the approaching stumbling girl, still looking calm.

Seeing that it was His Royal Highness, Yu'er couldn't help but exhale, and hurriedly greeted him and said, "Your Highness, you can count it back, Your Majesty has sent someone to send a message to let you over, and it has been some time." Your Highness should change your clothes quickly, so that Your Majesty doesn't find out that you have slipped out of the palace again. ”

Yu'er is a worrying fate, who let meet a master like Jiuxi. Hurriedly beckoned the other sisters to dress up and change clothes for Jiuxi, and followed Jiuxi to the female monarch's side hall as an accompanying maid.

When they arrived at the side hall, the maid said that Her Majesty had instructed Her Highness to let her go to the back garden if she came, and the lady had already gone to the back garden.

Jiuxi and Yu'er rushed to the back garden again.

From a distance, I saw the female monarch and several talented men discussing the prey that they had brought back.

"The child is the mother. May my mother be healthy and worry-free. Jiuxi was serious and gave Jimo a salute.

"Get up. Ji Mowei glanced at her, "Where did you go again? ”

Yu'er's heart jumped, and she looked at her master with some concern, as expected, she couldn't hide anything from Her Majesty, and hoped that Your Majesty would not punish His Highness.

Jiuxi said, "Back to my mother, the child has nothing to do, so I went to the Zuo Xiang's Mansion to have lunch with the Zuo Xiang." ”

Ji Mo Wei let out an inexplicable smile when he heard this, "Yes, I don't usually know how close you are to him." ”

I didn't continue to ask any more questions.

A young official in a cyan official uniform arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty, seeing that this little red fox is cute and has not hurt its fur among the prey brought back, it is better to give it to Your Highness as a little pet." ”

This young man is a good hand at drawing a bow and hunting, and most of the prey he hunted back today is due to his accurate archery skills, that is, Mo Weijun's heart is happy, and he will be rewarded when he returns to the palace. Now he wants to present the little red fox he hunted back to Her Royal Highness the princess, but no one has said anything.

"In this case, let it be given to the princess. ”

"The child thanked his mother. ”

The attendant on the side took the little fox down, washed its hair, sharpened its paws, and made sure that there was no danger of putting it in a cage before giving it to His Highness.

In the back garden, the lady rewarded the talents who went out of the palace to hunt with her, and sent those who stayed behind to the Animal Taming Bureau.

It was already dark, and there were scattered stars, and the palace lamps had been lit before it was dark, and now they were brighter at night. Jimo pulled his hair, retreated from the maid who followed, and said to Jiuxi, "Let's go with my mother." ”

Jiuxi accompanied Ji Mowei on a cobblestone path in the back garden. They are mothers and daughters, and they are also kings and ministers. In Jiuxi's memory, there are few times to walk with his mother like this. The mother spends much more time with the prince to enjoy the flowers or discuss political affairs with the left minister than with her daughter.

Jiuxi's mind matures as quickly as her body, so that Ji Mowei often forgets that she is only a ten-year-old girl. However, Jiuxi is well developed, but she is not much taller than ordinary teenage girls, but she looks like a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl.

But at the same time she is also a royal daughter. is destined not to be as carefree as the daughters of ordinary people. Even the ordinary and ordinary parental love is difficult to enjoy.

"I heard that my mother has set a family business for her daughter?" walked to a stone table, and the two sat down. Jiuxi thought about it, but still asked.

Jimo Shi glanced at her in some surprise, frowned, and said, "Where did you hear that?" and thought that she went to Zuo Xiang for dinner today, but she felt that according to that person's temperament, she would not take the initiative to say it, even if the other party was her own daughter, "Zhongli told you?"

"It's not Lord Zuo. Jiuxi shook his head, "Today, during the day, I went to Qingping Lefang to ask Sister Dairan about the news of the master, and I met a young man there, and he said that it was his master and his mother who agreed on our marriage. ”

"A young man ......," he pondered, "what token does he have?"

Jiu Xi thought about it, but still took out the jade pendant, "He gave me this." ”

It is also said to be a token of love.

Jiuxi didn't say the second half of the sentence, Ji Mo Shi took the jade pendant and looked at it for a long time, and said suspiciously, "I've never seen this, but looking at the material of this jade, it doesn't look like an ordinary product." ”

She could even feel a trace of divine power fluctuations from this jade pendant.

It's a pity that she has no way to verify it carefully. Looking at her daughter who was still waiting for her to answer, Ji Mo touched the top of her hair.

"You did make a family appointment, and I made it myself. ”

Then he thought of something, "It was your third birthday, and your master came to the door at the same time as that person. One says he wants to make a marriage contract with you, and the other says he wants him to make a marriage contract with you. Later, the two fought, and the man won. Your master then became your master. ”

Jiuxi had never heard of this stubble, and was surprised for a while and did not react. Her master still ...... Asked her for a kiss? Jiuxi suddenly felt that the whole person was not good.

"Mother, although Master is really good-looking and very young, I was only three years old at the time, and I was really far behind in age. Why did Master marry me?"

"Your master said that he had a relationship with you, and he was destined to have a fate. He does have some skills. I have accidentally seen him as a teenager, and perhaps what he presents to the world is just an appearance. ”

"But whether what I see is an appearance, or whether what the world sees is an appearance, I don't know. Perhaps, if he didn't have another skin, he wouldn't have stuck to it. You don't have to care about this, what kind of fate you will have depends on how this providence is arranged. ”

Jiuxi nodded, "I see, mother." ”

"The young man you saw today may be that man's apprentice. How does he look?

Jiuxi twitched the corners of her mouth unconsciously, her mother had just persuaded her not to stick to her skin, and now she revealed her true nature.

Also, I forgot that her mother was originally a lustful master. It's just that she still cares about her future son-in-law's appearance.

......

Phew, the future son-in-law is hairy.

"When I saw him today, he was wearing half a mask, and I didn't see what he looked like. ”

Jimo said, "I think it should be him." Back then, only me, your master, and that person knew about it, and your master lost the battle and lost face, so I don't think I would tell others about it. The young man who knows about this should be the one who is married to you. ”

Jiuxi was still a little puzzled, "Mother, even so, but they also brought up the matter of marrying, why did my mother agree to marry me?"
