I was flattered after crossing
Chapter 18 On the cusp of the storm
Seeing that Xiao Zhengxuan didn't turn around, I turned sideways to look back curiously, and saw a young man in a sky blue brocade robe running in.
He looked about 70% similar to Xiao Zhengxuan, and he called her aunt. Could he be the younger brother that Xiao Zhengxuan always loved?
He ran over, bowed and greeted the eldest princess: "Chen'er pays his respects to my aunt! You look more beautiful again. Did you change to new rouge?" He looked up at the eldest princess and grinned.
The eldest princess touched her face and said with a smile: "Chen'er always likes to make fun of his aunt~"
This kid is so sweet-talkerish. How many women in the world can resist a little boy saying that they are pretty again?
He turned his head and looked at Xiao Zhengxuan: "Brother, I pay my respects to elder brother!" He leaned forward and looked at me: "I also pay my respects to my sister-in-law. My sister-in-law's clothes are so beautiful, and they match my brother's clothes very well. When I came in, I thought they were fairies who had descended to the earth! My sister-in-law and brother standing together are simply a pair of immortal lovers!" He smiled at me with his innocent big eyes.
What should I say? What should I say? My brother has a good taste. This is called couple clothing. When you have a wife in the future, you will also come to me to make it?
He quickly nudged Xiao Zhengxuan with his elbow.
"Okay, your sister-in-law is shy, so stop teasing her." Xiao Zhengxuan said to him.
He looked up at Xiao Zhengxuan and said, "I'm not kidding, sister-in-law. I'm telling the truth!"
"Aunt, do you have any snacks? I came out in a hurry and haven't had breakfast yet." He walked towards his aunt.
"Yes, I knew you youngsters were coming, so I made preparations early, especially since there was a glutton like you~" The eldest princess reached out and pinched Xiao Zhengchen's nose.
This kid is really amazing. Any kid who loves to eat can be loved by his family. This trick still works now. Parents are very happy if the kid eats a few more bites of food...
The eldest princess also called Xiao Zhengxuan and me over, and we sat down together to have some snacks and drink tea.
"You were standing far away and I couldn't see clearly just now, but your bun... is very unique." The eldest princess said, looking at my hair.
I wiped my mouth and cleared my throat: "The prince combed my hair into this bun this morning. He said it's called Huixin bun. He learned it from you when he was a child, and he wanted to show it to me. I think the prince wanted to show it to you!"
The eldest princess laughed happily after hearing this: "Xuan'er is a quiet child, unlike Chen'er who is noisy. He learns everything quickly, whether it is literature or martial arts, as long as you teach him, he can always learn quickly and do very well. My maid was combing my hair into this heart-shaped bun that day, and it was not that high then." She stretched out her hand to indicate the height and continued, "I asked him if he thought it looked good, and your aunt would teach you, so that you would not be quiet and not know how to coax a wife in the future~ and then guess what?" The eldest princess asked me with a smile.
"The prince must have run away with his mouth shut!" Following the eldest princess's pace, he said with a smile.
"He said to me with a blushing face, 'Although I am not good at speaking, I can do more. Aunt, please teach me!' Don't you think it's funny?" After the eldest princess said this, she looked at the three of us and laughed.
The image of little Xiao Zhengxuan following the eldest princess in getting his hair done appeared in my mind, and I also covered my mouth and laughed.
Turning around, I saw that Xiao Zhengxuan's ears were red again.
Xiao Zhengchen quickly swallowed the snack in his mouth: "Brother and sister-in-law have such a good relationship. I only saw it in picture books. On the second day after the hero and heroine consummated their marriage, the husband would tie up the hair and do makeup for his new wife!" He looked at the two of us with a longing expression.
Xiao Zhengxuan almost spit out a mouthful of tea: "What kind of picture book are you looking at? You normally read some useless books. Do you know how to recite the article that the Grand Master asked you to recite?"
"Ahhh, we came out to have fun today, why do you speak so much like father~" Xiao Zhengchen said with a look of grievance.
As he was speaking, a servant came to report: "Princess, the guests are almost here."
"Well, let's go out and enjoy the flowers, otherwise the sun will be too strong soon." The eldest princess stood up and walked out, and the three of us juniors followed behind her.
Walking out of the main hall and across the water corridor, you can see the wide lotus pond, peculiar rocks, and lush flowers and trees. The lotus in summer is picturesque, with a touch of pink dotted in the green, standing tall and graceful.
There were already many noble ladies in the Wanghe Pavilion in the distance, and there were also several young men in the flower hall next to it. When we walked over, they stood up and saluted. The eldest princess, the King of Rui, and the prince had all greeted me, but when it came to me, they looked at each other and didn't know what to say. After all, it was a marriage granted, but it had not yet been officially married.
"Greetings, Princess Rui~" I looked over following the clear and firm voice. Isn't this Zhang Ruxue? This girl is really smart.
I winked and smiled at her, but I couldn't move too much now because I had to maintain my status as a princess.
I heard a group of people bowing to me: "Greetings, Princess."
"Please don't be so polite, everyone." I glanced at Xiao Zhengxuan. He was looking at me with a smirk.
The eldest princess said, "It's enough to be polite. You all should stop being so reserved."
This party is a social gathering hosted by the eldest princess, allowing boys and girls of appropriate age to meet each other and see if there is any sign of mutual attraction between them.
In fact, everyone knows that the reason why the Duke held the Lotus Banquet after Xiao Zhengxuan returned to the imperial city was to find a princess for Xiao Zhengxuan. After all, his age was considered late for marriage in that era.
But he didn't expect that he had asked the emperor for marriage first. A successful bachelor was snatched away by a woman whose origin was unknown and who had never been heard of before. It must have been a huge blow to anyone who had his eyes on the Rui Palace.
Not to mention the prince, even if she could marry a prince who does nothing, it would be of great benefit to her family.
So I'm quite embarrassed standing here now. The noble ladies who came here today are more or less here for Xiao Zhengxuan. They cannot meet him normally, but this time they have the chance to appreciate the grace of the Prince Rui, who is both talented in literature and martial arts and has both courage and strategy.
Seeing many sharp eyes looking at me, I felt that if there were lasers in their eyes, there would be big holes all over my body. The more I thought about it, the more aggrieved I felt! I turned my head and glared at Xiao Zhengxuan.
Humph, it’s all your fault. You have to put me in the spotlight!
"Madam, please come this way. The sun is very strong over there and you are afraid of the heat~" Xiao Zhengxuan looked at me gently, took my hand and walked to the shade on the side of the pavilion.
"What are you trying to do again? I feel like there's a thorn in my back and a fishbone stuck in my throat!" I asked him in a low voice.
"Since you have accepted my gift, are you still unwilling to help me?" He looked up at the hair accessories on my head and pursed his lips.
I raised my hand to pull it down, but he seemed to have predicted what I was going to do.
He immediately supported my hand holding the hairpin and said, "I just fixed it for Madam this morning, and now it's loose again. It seems that my craftsmanship is not good enough. Don't move it and it will be fixed soon."
Here he comes again, he comes again with his acting skills!
