"I didn't know that the lady would bring the guests here," Brocade put the tea and snacks on the table: "I didn't have time to get new tea, and I ask the guests to forgive me." ”

"You've worked hard, wake up early this morning, go and rest first," Shen Langxi took the teacup and waved his hand.

"Yes, miss. The brocade saluted and withdrew.

"Miss Shen seems to be very good to her subordinates," Su Zili blew the tea: "Looking at the brocade girl's clothes, it seems to be a slave." ”

"Yes," Shen Langxi smiled: "The brocade grew up with me since I was a child." ”

"It's just...... Since Emperor Renrui, slave maidservants have not been allowed to serve women who have not left the court......"

"The girl may not know," Shen Langxi put down the tea in his hand: "I am a slave." ”

"What?"

"At the beginning, Bao Hewang, the father of the county lord of Tingxue, bought dozens of slave women," Shen Langxi handed the hand stove to Su Zili: "In the end, six were left, trained as a singer, and went to slavery." ”

"There is such a thing?" Su Zili was a little surprised: "Miss Shen is not afraid that I will tell it?"

"The royal secret, does the girl dare?" Shen Langxi said with a smile: "I originally wanted to make friends with the girl, see if the girl is willing?"

Zili is naturally willing, and she also wants to thank Sister Shen for her love. ”

"That sister needs to sit down more. ”

"Thank you, sister. ”

When Su Zili returned to Liuli Pavilion, it was already night, and the maid Taoxin hurriedly took over the drama written by Shen Langxi in Su Zili's hand. Snowflakes fall on the skin of the play, wetting the paper.

"Miss, it's time to rest. ”

"It's okay," Su Zili drank the daily medicine to protect against the cold, lit a candle and read: "You go down first." ”

"Yes. Peach Heart stepped back and quietly closed the door.

Su Zili put down the book in her hand, pressed open a little wooden window, listened to the sound of the wind mixed with snow, and didn't realize that it was late at night.

Lin Zaifeng and Meng Xiu were drunk, but whenever Meng Xiu mentioned Princess Kangli, Lin Zaifeng always skipped the topic, as if he was deliberately avoiding it. Meng Xiu stayed in Lin Zaifeng Mansion, and the man who was waiting for him to rest was a slave boy named Nie Xiuhe.

"My lord, the prince arranged for you to rest in the room in front of you," Nie Xiuhe said in a proper manner, "The slave will lead you there." ”

"Your name is ...... What's the name?" Meng Xiu felt that he was really a little drunk, and he actually felt that the man in front of him seemed familiar.

"Slave Nie Xiuhe. ”

"You...... You...... Are you a slave?"

"Yes, the slave is the house slave bought by King Baohe back then. ”

"Baohe Wang?" Meng Xiu suddenly felt a little sobered up, and looked at the man in front of him with some caution: "It's a name that I haven't heard for a long time." ”

"The slave is speechless," Nie Xiuhe lowered his head: "It's just that back then, King Baohe was a slave in the midst of fire and water, and the slave was unforgettable." ”

"How old are you?"

"The minion is fifteen years old. ”

"It looks like," Meng Xiu nodded: "It's okay, Bao and Wang Xinshan are the father of your prince, it's a good thing that you can remember him." ”

"Yes, the slave remembers the teachings of Master Meng. ”

Meng Xiu frowned, always feeling doubts in his heart, but he didn't want to show his doubts anymore. Instead, he was worried about how to deal with Princess Kangli's interrogation...... Forget it, I still haven't been to see her in the past few days.

"No," the emperor held Concubine Qing's hand: "Seeing that Yunxi is growing up day by day, do you have any good candidates to match?"

"Please also ask the emperor to decide," Concubine Qing just agreed: "The concubines don't dare to be selfish." ”

"What do you think...... How about Liu Gongyi, the son of the Ministry of Industry Shangshu and the county lord of Huiying?"

"Liu Gongzi seems to be good, but the concubine heard that Liu Gongyi was entangled with the dancer a few days ago, I'm afraid it ......"

"That's really not good," the emperor thought for a moment, "There are many people who can be matched, but I think that only two people can be a good match." ”

"What does the emperor think?"

"The Ministry of Rites, Shangshu Meng Xiu, Anping Wang Lin Zaifeng. ”

Princess Kang Li fiddled with the jade pendant that Lin Zaifeng asked for, and she only felt sad in her heart. Having known each other since childhood, she may be just a little sister in his heart, but she ......

For so many years, he has even dreamed of him......

If it weren't for herself, who would be worthy of him? Princess Kang Li didn't want to think that her father gave her "Kang Li", healthy and beautiful, and her requirements for the royal family seemed to be too low to be lower.

Did he think so of her, too?

"County Lord," the maid Zheng'er called the County Lord Tingxue: "The princess wants to ask the county lord Shoulan Palace to talk about it." ”

"Okay," Ting Xue thought for a moment, and it seemed that everything was under control.

"I haven't seen my sister for a long time," Princess Kang Li looked at Ting Xue, who was attracted by Zheng'er, and got up to greet her: "Sister, do you want Kang Li?"

"That's not it," Ting Xue smiled, "It's just that my sister didn't just come to catch up with me." ”

"Sister," Princess Kang Li held one of Ting Xue's hands, "But is there any way to make the prince stop rejecting me?"

"Xi'er," Lord Tingxue sighed, "Why bother with a tree...... Meng Xiu, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, An Zhongning, the new champion, and ...... Xu Yingke, it's all a choice. ”

"Sister, if I could fall in love with someone else, I wouldn't have called my sister today...... What's more......" Princess Kang Li seemed to be a little embarrassed: "Brother Meng Xiu is just my teacher......"

"It's fate for the two to fall in love with each other," Lord Tingxue patted Princess Kang Li's hand: "How can others influence it?" Xi'er, if you are sincere, you should be the golden stone." ”

"Sister......

"The road is slippery on a snowy day," Lord Tingxue got up with a smile: "If you don't leave, I'm just afraid of the palace curfew." ”

"Then sister be careful," Princess Kang Li also got up together: "Sister go slowly." ”

"Then I'll talk about it in the future," Lord Tingxue returned the salute, and the maid Ying'er hurriedly came to help.

"County Lord," on the way, Ying'er asked cautiously, "Will the prince really marry the princess?"

"No," basically without thinking, the county lord of Ting Xue blurted out: "Definitely not." ”

"Then why ......"

"Ying'er," Lord Tingxue smiled, "Princess Kang Li is just a child, she will understand in the future, even if she doesn't understand...... Qing Guifei will tell her. After all, she's Lin Jingnian's daughter, isn't she?"

Ying'er hurriedly lowered her head and walked obediently beside the sedan chair, the royal maid, she shouldn't know too much.

Lord Tingxue didn't say: The royal snow is all red.
