You Meng Yin

, then I won't delay you, goodbye. "He said.

Su Mu nodded.

"Goodbye."

He didn't dare to look at the people around him again.

The sound of horseshoes in the ears went away, and the two people who had entered the door turned around again.

"Passing by?"

Zhu Rong looked at the back of Su Mu riding on the horse and returning the same way.

"Then why did he go back again?" she said.

Ye Hongxuan laughed.

"He is a thin-skinned person." He said, "Probably he wanted to apologize, but he couldn't open his mouth."

Zhu Rong nodded.

"I don't think he looks like the guy who said those apologies."

"Although I didn't say it clearly, after my aunt went to the palace to see my mother a few days ago, she not only gave a lot of gifts, but also said a lot of things that blamed herself for 'no way to teach a daughter'." Ye Hongxuan said, "As for Su Yun was imprisoned at home. Although it is not ruled out that they were worried about me and the Seventeenth Emperor's uncle secretly attacking, but for a person like Su Yun, this move was enough for her to feel embarrassed, and it was naturally uncomfortable to think about it. There should be a pause for a while."

"That's enough." Zhu Rong said, "After all, they are relatives, so there's no need to push them too fast."

Ye Hongxuan nodded, with a smile on his face.

After a long time, he realized what he was having fun with.

It turned out that the tone of Zhu Rong's last sentence just now seemed to say that she and the Changning Palace were also relatives.

"Your Highness, if you continue to stand there and giggle, the meat roasted by His Highness Prince Rui's own hands will be eaten by that little girl Shi Jin!"

Xu Ji ran out from the back garden and yelled at Ye Hongxuan, but he disappeared soon after.

giggle?

This Xu Ji, who gave him such boldness!

34 embarrassing things

The back garden of Zhuzhitang is lively and lively.

There is no trace of the cool and immortal aura that Ye Hongxuan saw when he first came here.

The oriole-like little girl ran around flying the kite, the oil stains on her lips were not wiped off, and she laughed and shouted happily.

A few maids, Xu Ji and others stared at each other, staring at and scrambling for the sizzling barbecue on the shelf.

And in this garden, one of the most distinguished people, uh, is willing to be the cook, turning the barbecue on the rack from time to time.

Occasionally, she raised her head and took a sip of bamboo leaf green wine. Her long and narrow phoenix eyes revealed a bit of depth, and her long black hair flowed like a waterfall in the sun.

Zhu Rong and Ye Hongxuan were both in a good mood watching this scene.

Ye Hongxuan suddenly felt that the title of his youngest imperial uncle "the most beautiful man in Dazhen" seemed to be worthy of his name, at least for the past few days, he was very pleasing to his eyes.

"Thank you." Zhu Rong said.

"Huh? Thank you for what?" Ye Hongxuan didn't react.

"Thank you for bringing the brocade." Zhu Rong said with a smile, "She alone is worth five hundred little yellow birds. With her around, it's hard to feel bored."

"It's fine if you like it." Ye Hongxuan said, "However, this is actually the Seventeenth Emperor's idea. I just followed his request and found the brocade from my house."

"Huh? What's the request?"

"Innocent and lively, cheerful and generous, free-spirited, greedy for food and sleep, energetic, eloquent..."

Before Ye Hongxuan finished speaking, Zhu Rong burst out laughing.

"However, since he thought of it." Zhu Rong said with a smile, "Why do you want to look for it in your mansion? Is it because there are more maids and maids in your mansion than in his mansion?"

Ye Hongxuan was at a loss for words.

He really hadn't thought about this question.

And at this time, he was absolutely unwilling to admit that his mansion had more maids than Ye Chengqi.

What if Zhu Rong misunderstands...

Ye Chengqi glanced at them indifferently.

"The wise work with their minds, but the foolish with their labor."

After he finished speaking lightly, he took another sip of green bamboo leaf wine.

"Uncle Seventeen..."

Ye Hongxuan's black line.

Damn it, why did he think he looked pleasing to the eye just because he came up with such an idea? !

Zhu Rong laughed.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, the kite is hanging on the tree, help me pick it up!"

Although there is more than one Highness in this garden, most of the food brocades from Prince Rui's Mansion are calling Ye Hongxuan.

"Let Xu Ji pick it for you." Ye Hongxuan said.

"No!" Shi Jin said loudly, "I want Your Highness to help me, Your Highness looks good!"

Well, this little girl is indeed romantic.

But for the sake of her being able to make someone so happy, he was extra tolerant towards her.

Ye Hongxuan was dragged by Shi Jin to pick the kite, while Ye Chengqi was still slowly looking through the meat and taking a sip of wine.

Then, he forked a piece of meat and handed it to Zhu Rong's mouth.

Zhu Rong couldn't help but praise after eating.

"You are a prince, so you know so many things." She said.

"That's right." Ye Chengqi said, "So if you want to marry me, you won't lose at all."

"Go, whoever said it's not a loss, it's a loss!" Zhu Rong scolded with a smile, "Except for marching and fighting, I don't know how to do anything else, I know how to do it."

Such as dealing with trauma, such as barbecue, such as drinking...

Ye Chengqi was at a loss for words, but did not refute.

He just admitted defeat, Zhu Rong was not used to it.

"Are you in a bad mood?" she asked.

Ye Chengqi raised his eyebrows.

Zhu Rong thought for a while and said, "Did you miss your brothers in the army?"

Ye Chengqi laughed.

"They're all men, they don't want to think about anything." He said, "It's just that after summer, a small group of cavalry from Beili harassed me at the Dazhen border from time to time. It's really annoying."

"Then the uncle wants to go back to the northwest?"

When Ye Hongxuan came back after picking the kite, he happened to hear the two talking.

Ye Chengqi glanced at him with a smile, and then at Zhu Rong.

"Go back, but not now alone." He said, "My soldiers are more than enough to deal with the current situation."

Ye Hongxuan's face was black.

Ye Chengqi forked a piece of meat and was about to open his mouth when Shi Jin rushed forward, giggling and snatching away.

She can snatch food from the tiger's mouth, and she is the only one present.

Zhu Rong and Ye Hongxuan were all laughing hard.

---

But after a few hours, Ye Hongxuan couldn't laugh anymore.

In the evening, he went into the palace to greet his mother.

Then Empress Su turned her back to the left and right, looking at him in a very complicated and unspeakable manner.

But in the end it was his own son, so there was no need for too many formalities, Empress Su got straight to the point.

"Xuan'er," she said, "that girl is dignified and handsome, and the queen mother is also a good girl. Even though she comes from a lower family background, if you really like her, you can take her in as a concubine or even a concubine in the mansion." , nothing at all."

When Queen Su said this, she paused.

This is really an embarrassing thing...

Then Ye Hongxuan looked at her in astonishment.

It turns out that my son really likes that girl so much.

Seeing that he agreed with him to take her into the mansion, he was so pleasantly surprised.

Empress Su thought about it, her heart felt soft again.

As a mother, how can she not want her son to be happy, even if she is a queen, she is no exception.

but……

"But what's going on with you now?" Empress Su said, "Are you, your seventeenth uncle, and that girl going to live like this forever? Even if you don't care, you still need to take care of that girl." reputation."

These remarks were all based on the standpoint of her son, and Empress Su felt that she would definitely be able to impress him.

Ye Hongxuan was really startled.

"Why does she want a reputation?" He said, "Anyway, she won't marry someone else, and if her reputation is ruined, no one will take it from me."

It was Queen Su's turn to be astonished.

It seems that it really makes sense.

Anyway, concubines or side concubines are different from those who are the main wife, as long as they have a face, it really doesn't matter if they have a good reputation or not.

Ye Hongxuan hadn't finished speaking yet.

"Also, Queen Mother." He said, "Please don't mention the matter of concubines or side concubines."

Empress Su didn't understand.

How to say?

Son doesn't like that girl?

Is it just pure friendship between men and women?

"I never thought that if I want her to be my concubine or concubine, I will never have any concubine or concubine in my life."

Empress Su, who was born in the Changning Palace with a clean family and no concubines, could not help but feel relieved and moved when she heard these words.

As expected of her son, he shed the blood of their Changning Palace.

"If I want to marry, I will only marry her alone, and let her marry me as a princess in a dignified way."

Empress Su's palms trembled, and the tea splashed on the table.

"As for Uncle Seventeen, I think he thinks the same as me and will never wrong her."

The teacup in Empress Su's hand fell straight to the ground.

So, he just likes a girl, and he and his Seventeenth Emperor Uncle like to be a hero and cherish a hero?

This is really an embarrassing thing.

35 who do you want to bet wins

The emperor also felt very embarrassed.

But there is no way, the father and the queen left early, and my own brother, who is a compatriot, was raised by him like a son since he was a child, so I can only trouble him more for him.

So Ye Chengqi was summoned into the palace by the emperor.

"Mo Yan, you are not young anymore."

My brother, open the skylight and speak honestly.

"In your mansion, there is no one in charge until now, but it has always been a concern of the emperor's brother."

"Jing Ze, Jing Xiang and the others have taken care of the affairs of the mansion very well." Ye Chengqi said, "Brother Huang, have you forgotten? These few people were rewarded by you when I first opened the mansion."

"It's been so many years, it's hard for you to still use them." The emperor sighed.

"It's easy to use, so naturally I'm reluctant to change it." Ye Chengqi said, "What's more, the people sent by the emperor's brother are all smart and quick-witted. I haven't found anyone who is more talented than them all these years."

These few words made the emperor feel very comfortable and benefited.

No, it seems to be off topic.

"Hey, brother, that's not what I said."

Facing the younger brother, the emperor was so kind that he didn't even call himself "zhen".

"I mean, the person in charge of the middle school in your mansion, shouldn't it be time for you to marry the princess?"

My younger brother is good, but he has been in the army for a long time and has a straightforward temper, so he must speak more straightforwardly.

"So that's what the emperor said."

Look, this makes it clear.

"So, do you have any ideas?" said the Emperor.

Ye Chengqi thought for a while.

"No." He said, "I'll just ask the emperor's brother and sister-in-law to trouble me more for my younger brother."

What a brother!

So why did he find this embarrassing before?

But... not right.

"Then why do you keep running to Zhuzhitang?" the emperor asked.

Ye Chengqi raised his head in surprise.

"Didn't you say, Brother Huang, that you want me to get closer to Hongxuan? Did you do something wrong?"

The emperor was taken aback, stunned.

"You went to Zhuzhitang for Hongxuan?!"

Ye Chengqi nodded.

The emperor was completely relieved.

"I'll just say it!" He said, "How could you fall in love with that girl of unknown origin like that kid Hongxuan!"

"unknown origins?"

Ye Chengqi had a strange look on his face.

"Yes." The emperor said, "How can such a girl be the concubine of my court prince?"

What's more, it's not just the prince.

Ye Chengqi's expression became even weirder.

"Who can despise that girl whose origin is unknown." He said, "Only you, Brother Emperor, can't."

"Why?" The emperor was inexplicable.

"Because the emperor is the son of heaven." Ye Chengqi said, "No matter where she comes from, she is a subject of the emperor."

It seems that there is some truth.

The emperor scoffed.

But no matter what, just make sure that the uncle and nephew didn't fall in love with the same person.

So, this matter is not embarrassing at all!

---

Su Yun was a little embarrassed.

After the confinement ended, she also calmed down completely, and regained her old ladylike demeanor.

Those servants in the family are nothing, forgive them and dare not make irresponsible remarks, it's just my brother...

What happened to me that day?

Didn't my brother just ask her a word, and she actually said that to him and let him go?

If I am like this, don't I push him to the side of that lowly maid?

Su Yun regretted endlessly in her heart.

So the first thing she did when she came out of the room was to go straight to Su Mu's residence.

Apologize, she has to go and apologize to him.

But as soon as Fang met her face, she was completely stunned.

But in just two months, how could her elegant and handsome brother become like this? !

---

"Wow, this is what Jinjue City looked like during the Dream Building Festival!"

There are three skewers of candied haws on the left side of Shijin, and five skewers of barbecue. While eating, we sighed while walking on the street.

Zhu Rong was also very surprised at the beginning, how could she eat so many things with her small mouth and small belly.But after getting along for two months, she is no stranger to it.

Her parents only gave birth to her one child. Although Shu Yang was always by their side, he took care of her like an older brother, and she was happy to treat Shi Jin like a younger sister.

"Yeah, it's really lively." Zhu Rong said, "It's also the first time I've seen it."

"Hey, sister, look there! There are so many people around, what are they doing?"

Shi Jin handed the leftover candied haws to the little girl who was following, and with one hand free, he pulled Zhu Rong into the crowd and happily joined in to watch the excitement.

The group ate and played all the way, and when they came to Yongming Canal, the dream boat race was about to start.

Yongming Canal is on the central axis of Jinjue City, and all dream boats set off from the south of the city, and the one who arrives outside the Mengnv Temple the fastest is the winner.

The Dream Building Festival can be said to be an annual grand festival of the Dazhen Empire no less than the Spring Festival. In addition to the huge crowds of onlookers, all high-ranking palaces will also send dream boats to the competition, and even more children of the nobles will row the boats in person. .

Betting on which dream boat will win is what the public likes to do on this day.

Zhu Rong and the others are nearing the finish line at this time, and even if they can't see the dream boats, everyone's enthusiasm for betting is still high.

Xu Ji, Jing Zhan and others bet a lot of money that their highness would win.

Like many other mansions, both Prince Rui and Prince Duan ended in person.

"Miss Su, Miss Su! Who do you want to bet on to win?" Jing Zhan shouted.

"Of course it's our Highness!" Xu Ji showed no sign of weakness.

Zhu Rong looked at the betting market with a smile, but seeing that Prince Rui's Mansion and Prince Duan's Mansion were both popular places to bet on, she wanted to bet on Xu's Mansion.

No reason, money can't buy her happiness.

Before she could place her bet, a hand stretched out, and with a "slap", bet a large ingot of silver on the Changning Palace.

"Why are there so few people buying the Changning Prince's Mansion this year?" the man said, "I'll bet, I'll bet."

"You are stupid." The person next to him said, "No one bought Changning Palace to win, of course they thought they would not win."

"You are stupid." The person who wanted to buy the Changning Palace said, "They have such extraordinary achievements in previous years, why do you think they won't win?"

"Here, see for yourself."

The people around him said and pointed.

Zhu Rong followed the finger and looked together, then also slightly startled.

On the other side of Yongming Canal, there are VIP seats specially set up for officials and dignitaries.

On the seat in Yongning Palace, Su Mu sat quietly.

"See it?" said the man.

"Your Royal Highness, why didn't you end up in person this year!" The man who bet on Yongning Palace regretted, "No, no, I want to change my bet!"

The dealer naturally refused, and a group of people started to quarrel.

From such a distance, only a rough outline can be seen.

Zhu Rong looked at Su Mu for a while, and then saw Su Yun sitting next to him, the two seemed to be very close, so she looked away.

"It's really unlucky..." The person before muttered, "Why didn't His Royal Highness the Prince of Changning end this year in person?"

"Is the news not well-informed?" Someone laughed at him, "I heard that His Royal Highness was seriously ill a few days ago, and it just happened in the past few days."

"So that's how it is..." Others murmured.

"Sister, sister! Who will win if we buy? Just buy our Highness, okay?" Shi Jin shook Zhu Rong's hand.

Zhu Rong came back to his senses and smiled.

"it is good."

As she said, she bet her Zhongyinliang on Prince Rui's residence.

When I saw the words Changning Palace beside me, I felt a little disturbed again.

Is it amazing to have an older brother to protect him?

As if angry, she took out 300 taels of silver notes from her sleeve and bet all on it.

"Wow!"

Seeing that Miss Su had such confidence in His Highness, Xu Ji was immediately overjoyed, as if their Palace of Prince Rui had already won the competition.

Jing Zhan was indignant, quite contemptuous of his superficiality.

36 again and again

As the starting point of the Dream Boat Race, the southern section of Yongming Canal is full of gongs, drums and crowds at this time, which is more lively than outside Mengnv Temple.

The dream boats from all the prefectures are ready to go, Ye Hongxuan and Ye Chengqi are both shirtless, holding drumsticks, standing on the bows of their respective boats.

"Your Highness, Miss Su bet 320 taels, and all of it is on...His Highness Prince Rui."

Ye Chengqi heard the report from the subordinates, and just saw Ye Hongxuan standing up straight, and the same figure beside him came and went.

Eyes met, Ye Hongxuan smiled at him.

Ye Chengqi also bent the corner of his mouth at him.

A horn sounded next to it, and the dream boats of all the prefectures shot out like arrows.

Ye Hongxuan and Ye Chengqi are both moving at this moment!

The drumsticks in the hands of the two quickly hit the drum surface like a gust of wind and rain.

"Dong dong dong dong!"

The sound of the drum was rumbling and shocking, and the two of them were on their own boats. Inspired by this, more than thirty good men were very ambitious, and the oars in their hands swung rapidly.

The people on the bank of Yongming Canal also started to run along with them.

---

"I'm coming!"

As the sound of drums approached in the distance, the people outside the Mengnv Temple were also full of enthusiasm and looked down, but seeing more than [-] dream boats approaching like arrows, everyone competed to see which one would be the first to ride.

The first thing that catches the eye is a big "end" character fluttering in the wind!

"It's our Highness!" Jing Zhan shouted excitedly.

Zhu Rong also saw Ye Chengqi.

His black hair fluttered up, his face was handsome beyond words, and he showed his body's body and muscles with every gesture.

Under the sun, the few drops of water splashed on his body seemed to be unable to bear to slip off, kissing his jade-like skin.

But there was a trace of laziness on his face.

Lazy?

Zhu Rongzheng wondered if he had read it wrong, and Jing Zhan's wailing sounded in his ears.

Then Xu Ji, Shi Jin and others laughed.

At this very moment, the Mengzhou of Prince Duan's Mansion was overtaken by Prince Rui's Mansion, and the drumsticks in Ye Hongxuan's hands were weaving the densest drum beats.

Prince Rui's Mansion won the championship in one fell swoop!

And after they qualified, Prince Duan's Mansion also rushed to them.The difference between the two prefectures is only a few centimetres.

"oops!"

Everyone who bought Duanwang's Mansion couldn't help feeling sorry.

Zhu Rong made a lot of money.

After the dream boats from Prince Rui's Mansion and Prince Duan's Mansion arrived for a long time, the dream boats from other mansions arrived one after another.

Seeing that the boat race was about to end, the crowd suddenly burst into laughter.

Zhu Rong also heard the beating of drums on the water surface, high and low, slow and intermittent, as if out of breath.

Looking up, he saw a big fat man at least twice the size of an ordinary person, standing on the bow of the boat beating the drum, his fat body trembled with the movements, it was extremely shocking.And the oarsmen on his boat, accompanied by the fast and slow, sometimes intermittent drumbeats, paddled in a mess.A dream boat seemed to be drunk and headed crookedly towards the Mengnv Temple.

Everyone laughed again.

"This fat man is almost sinking the boat!" Shi Jin said.

The people next to me laughed even harder when they heard it.

Zhu Rong saw the word "An" on the flag, so he asked Jing Zhan and Xu Ji.

"Who is this?"

"It's the fourth prince, His Highness Wang An, who just came back from the fiefdom." Xu Ji said with a smile.

Sure enough, the dragon gave birth to nine sons, all of them were different.

Su Yun looked away in disgust, but his eyes fell on those two people unconsciously.

Wash your eyes quickly.

Both of them had put on their clothes and sat down in their respective seats, the black hair on the back of their heads was still a little wet.

But even with such a casual appearance, they are all extremely handsome, with a slender and tall figure.

Thinking of the fit and powerful young body under the clothes, Su Yun couldn't feel his ears warming.

But when she lowered her head, she suddenly remembered something, and a cold light flashed in her eyes.

---

After the boat race is over, the most lively activities during the day will be over, and then there will be a grand sacrifice in the Mengnv Temple until the evening.

"Okay, let's go back to the Bamboo Branch Hall." Zhu Rong said.

After eating and watching, and winning a lot of money, Shi Jin smiled and nodded contentedly.

This little girl really makes people feel happy watching her eat and laugh.

Perhaps coupled with winning this large sum of money, Zhu Rong is in a good mood.

But at this moment, the crowd suddenly became noisy.

"Kill it!" Someone yelled.

For a moment, everyone on the bridge panicked even more. You pushed and I squeezed, and the already crowded bridge became more and more chaotic.

Xu Ji, Jing Zhan and the others tried their best to protect Zhu Rong, but the two of them were also squeezed hard.

Another wave of people rushed in, and with a "plop", the little figure that fell into the water was swept away by the water in an instant.

"Shi Jin!"

Without even thinking about it, Zhu Rong followed her and jumped down.

When they noticed something strange on the bridge, both Ye Chengqi and Ye Hongxuan's expressions changed instantly, and they rushed out immediately.

And Su Mu was flying towards the commotion together with them.

Before that, he was so quiet that people almost forgot his existence.

No one knows when he noticed the distance.

---

"Shijin... Shijin!"

Zhu Rong woke up from the nightmare, tears flowing down her haggard face like a stream.

She met Ye Hongxuan's eyes, which were bloodshot.

"Shijin, how's Shijin?" She grabbed him and asked.

Ye Hongxuan pursed his lips for a while, and finally said in a hoarse voice: "It's hopeless."

Zhu Rong suddenly felt thunderstruck.

Didn't save him?

What do you mean by not being rescued?

Is it dead?

Is Shijin dead?

That little girl who loves to eat and laugh, like a spring flower or an oriole, is just... dead?

Tears are more like a river that has broken its embankment, crawling all over my cheeks.

"They all went to save me, right? No one has time to take care of Shi Jin..." She said, "So I jumped down, not only failed to save her, but also added to the chaos, I was the one who killed her After Shijin, it's me..."

"No, no!"

Ye Hongxuan hurriedly held her hand tightly in his palm.

"That's not it!" He said, "The water in that place is not very deep. But Shi Jin is small and can't step on it to the bottom, so..."

Ye Hongxuan was also a little choked up as he spoke.

In the ear, I can no longer hear the voice of "Your Highness, Your Highness" as crisp as an oriole.

"But do you know?" Zhu Rong said, "I could have used the dream technique to put most people into a coma, and the bridge wouldn't be so chaotic, but I didn't... If I used it, Shi Jin I won't die, so I still killed her..."

"No! You didn't kill her! Don't take everything on yourself!" Ye Hongxuan said, "It's Su Yun! It's Su Yun who killed you!"

Zhu Rong's eyes, which had lost focus, regained focus in an instant.

"Su Yun?"

She murmured those two words, as if they weighed heavily.

Why is it her again?

How could it be her again?

"That's right." Ye Hongxuan said, "Uncle Seventeen's investigation results are the same as mine."

"She thought she was doing it secretly, but in fact..."

"But it's ridiculous, we haven't been able to guard against such a clumsy and childish trick."

"She hired a few hooligans, spilled chicken blood to pretend to be human blood, causing panic among the people, and then..."

"They wanted to pretend they didn't care, and in the midst of the chaos, they killed you with the sharp knife that wiped the chicken's neck."

As if hearing the Arabian Nights, Zhu Rong forgot to shed tears and looked up at Ye Hongxuan steadfastly.

Why?

That is why ah?

What kind of deep hatred is there between her and her that must put her to death?

The bedroom was silent for a long time before Zhu Rong shed tears again.

"So, if you send Shijin to me, you are sending her to die." She said, "She is still so young, so cute... I was wrong, I was wrong from the beginning, I shouldn't come here Jin Jue, let alone indulge her again and again..."

Ye Hongxuan didn't speak for a long time, he said: "Do you know why Su Yun can hurt you again and again without scruple?"

Zhu Rong looked at him a little blankly.

"Because you are nothing."

Ye Hongxuan squatted down slowly, and held her hand tightly.

"You have no status, no status. She favors the princess and is high above her. Even if she kills you and makes a scene in front of my father, it's just killing a commoner."

"Sometimes, the truth is so cruel. 'The emperor breaks the law and the common people are the same crime', this kind of statement is just written in the book to deceive people."

"So, marry me."

"Let me marry you as my princess and protect you in a legitimate way."

37 I don't feel that way

Zhu Rong stared at Ye Hongxuan in a daze.

After these two days of deep worry and fear, when Ye Hongxuan said these words again, he was very calm and calm.

However, at this moment, Zhu Rong still felt his ears warm and his heart even hotter.

After a long time, Zhu Rong asked: "You mean, you, like me?"

Ye Hongxuan seemed to be able to hear the sound of his own blood flowing, and it seemed that the glacier condensed in his heart melted into a hot spring in that instant.

"Of course I like you," he said. "Can't you feel it after such a long time?"

Zhu Rong looked at him, wondering what he was thinking.

There was no joy on his face, let alone shyness, but...he didn't express any resistance or opposition either.

Ye Hongxuan held his breath, quietly waiting for her answer.

I want to marry you as my princess, no matter what secrets you have, no matter where you come from, who you are.

So, would you like to?

Zhu Rong didn't answer.

Xu Ji's voice sounded outside the house.

"Your Highness," he said, "Prince Changning... is seeking to see Miss Su outside."

"It's ridiculous!"

Ye Hongxuan frowned angrily.

"He has the face to come to my mansion before I come to the door! This time there are so many evidences, and he still wants to deny it for Su Yun?"

Zhu Rong looked around, this is really not her bamboo branch hall.

Maybe Ye Hongxuan felt that it might not be safe for her to stay in Zhuzhitang now.

Ye Hongxuan saw her stared blankly, and felt another pain in his heart.

"This matter was completely arranged by Su Yun." He said, "If Su Mu took action, there would definitely not be so many traces left."

Zhu Rong nodded.

He didn't need it, he explained it to her specially.

Because she doesn't really care.

"Let him in," she said.

Ye Hongxuan was startled.

"He should be able to find out what you can find out. I just want to hear what he wants to say." Zhu Rong said, "Actually, there is nothing worth saying, right? After all, I am just a common people."

Therefore, this incident is not even as serious as the last Qujiang Spring Banquet, where the horse fell off the cliff.

Because the horse fell off the cliff in shock, Ye Hongxuan could still insist that Su Yun was targeting him, and he was also the one who hurt him.

But this time, it had nothing to do with him.

Ye Hongxuan felt his throat was a little dry, his heart was tight and painful.

He even regretted what he had just said to her.

"Okay," he finally said, then turned and walked out.

After Zhu Ronglue finished packing, Su Mu walked in, but Ye Hongxuan was not there.

Just looking at his figure, Zhu Rong didn't recognize Su Mu for a while.

Not counting the Dream Building Festival, he could only see a rough outline from a distance. The last time I saw him was outside the Zhuzhi Hall more than two months ago.

At that time, although he was somewhat different from before, he was not like what he is now...

Zhu Rong recalled that outside the Mengnv Temple, he seemed to have heard that he had been seriously ill.

Then, what kind of serious illness should it be, which can make a person thin and haggard like this within a month?

She frowned, reaching for his wrist.

Su Muruo was burned by the fire, his wrist trembled, but he didn't break free.

He quietly looked at the top of her head, at her soft hair, and her thick and curled long eyelashes.

She seems to have lost weight too.

Zhu Rong felt his pulse for a moment, then frowned again, and threw his wrist away.

Su Mu didn't need her to invite him, so he sat down at one side.

"How?" He asked dryly.

Zhu Rong frowned and glanced at him.

"Your pulse is fast and chaotic, and I can't diagnose anything," she said.

Su Mu suddenly smiled.

The thin lips are slightly pursed, the corners of the lips are turned up, and even the peach blossom mole at the end of the left eye has become vivid and real, even though the face is pale and thin, it also adds a bit of elegance and elegance.

Zhu Rong didn't speak, waiting for him to speak.

Su Mu remained silent.

He looked at her most of the time, and occasionally turned away, but never spoke, as if he came here just to sit quietly and look at her quietly.

I don't know how long I sat there.

"Would you like some tea?" he asked.

what?

Zhu Rong was taken aback.

Now it's a, what's the situation?

He entertained her in the room where she slept?

Su Mu got up, poured a cup of hot tea and handed it to her.

"Your lips are very dry, drink some water." He said.

Zhu Rong was startled, subconsciously took it, and subconsciously licked her lower lip.

Su Mu looked away.

After she finished drinking, he took the cup and put it back to its original place, then said: "I'm going first, you should have a good rest."

Seeing that Zhu Rong didn't answer, he added.

"Condolences."

Then he really didn't say another word, turned around and walked out.

Really, just leave?

Then why is he here?

Zhu Rong was stunned for a moment, and after a while, he met Ye Hongxuan with the same strange expression.

"I'm a little skeptical now, does he know that this incident is related to his sister again." Ye Hongxuan said.

"If you don't know, then why is he here?" Zhu Rong said.

Ye Hongxuan's complexion became even weirder.

"Forget it, it doesn't matter what he's here for." Zhu Rong said, "I have a question I want to ask you."

Ye Hongxuan breathed quickly, thinking of the unfinished topic just now.

"You ask," he said.

The sound was soft, as if it would break at the touch of a finger.

"You said Su Yun, why did you want to kill me over and over again?" Zhu Rong said.

Ye Hongxuan was startled, this is not the topic he most wants to talk about now.

"It should be because of me." He said, "She has determined to be my princess since she was very young."

Zhu Rong nodded.

"I think it's also for this reason." She said, and then asked, "In her capacity, if she doesn't marry you, who is she most likely to marry?"

"Based on her status and the power of the Changning Palace, it is more than enough to marry into a palace as a concubine, and it is even difficult for the children of ordinary officials and nobles to match." Ye Hongxuan said, "The princes who have not married a concubine in the court, except me, There are fourth younger brother, sixth younger brother, and... the seventeenth emperor's uncle. But if you count the princes or county kings, there will be more..."

Zhu Rong nodded while listening.

"That is to say, no matter how she marries, she will marry into a princess." She said.

Ye Hongxuan's heart warmed up, he thought she wanted to surpass Su Yun in terms of status.

If you want to be queen, I will be emperor for you.

This sentence almost blurted out.

Sure enough, Zhu Rong thought for a while, then suddenly raised his head.

"You just said you liked me, didn't you?"

The warm current in the chest made Ye Hongxuan almost suffocate.

"Yes."

He replied without hesitation, looking at her full of expectation, his eyes were so hot that they almost melted the person in front of him.

Zhu Rong also looked at him.

"If you really like me, don't marry me," she said, "help me, please?"

The mood instantly fell from the high altitude to the bottom.

When Ye Hongxuan wanted to speak again, he failed to make a sound.

He poured himself a glass of water, and after drinking it, Fang asked hoarsely, "Why don't you want to marry me? Is it because you don't like it?"

Zhu Rong nodded.

"I don't feel that way about you," she said.

"What kind of feeling?" Ye Hongxuan asked with pain in his heart.

"I used to have that feeling towards Su Mu." Zhu Rong said.

"Then, who do you feel that way about now?" Ye Hongxuan asked again.

"No." Zhu Rong said, "No one, so I don't want to get married."

Ye Hongxuan felt a little better.

so be it.

Give each other some more time and take your time.

"Of course I will help you. Whatever you do, I will help you," he said. "So how do you want me to help you?"

38 family

"Mother."

When Ye Hongxuan walked into the queen's palace, there was a trace of shyness on his face.

What's going on here?

Didn't he come to beg her to ask his father to give him a marriage order?

Empress Su looked at her son in a panic.

"Xuan'er," she said, "The queen mother just ordered someone to make sunflower cakes, and you just come to taste them."

"Can sunflowers be made into cakes? The minister there is really lucky to have a fresh taste."

Ye Hongxuan smiled and sat beside the queen.

"My son came all the way just now, and the flowers in the mother's harem are really blooming." He said, "It would be a pity if only our family can enjoy it."

If they can be appreciated by our royal family, they will not be in vain for a lifetime!

this kid.

Empress Su thought about it, but she felt alert in her heart.

"So, I want to ask my mother one thing." Ye Hongxuan said.

really!

"Well, what's the matter?" Queen Su asked with a smile.

"I also ask the queen mother to issue an order to invite the noble sons and daughters of all prefectures to enter the palace to enjoy the flowers."

"Except for Shangsi's field trip, have men and women ever gathered together like this? Isn't this out of etiquette?" Su Yun said.

"That's right." Xu Mingzhu said, "So, the Empress is simply not in the bar because she is drunk!"

"Then what does she mean?"

As Su Yun said that, she felt that she turned around and asked others what her aunt meant, which seemed very shameless.

"What do people say outside?" She added.

It's much better now.

It's not that she doesn't know, but she wants to hear about the legends outside.

"That's right, I want to choose concubines for several highnesses. That's why the arrangement is so subtle." Xu Mingzhu said.

implicit?

That's right, compared to directly calling people into the palace to participate in the election, such a flower viewing banquet is indeed much more reserved.

It was so subtle that not only all noble girls were invited, but also men of the right age were invited into the palace, as if it was really just for viewing flowers.

"Look, Yunyun, this is a post."

Xu Mingzhu took out something from her sleeve.

Still have posts?

Su Yun's face sank.

"What's there to see?" She said, "Your highnesses, your highnesses, who doesn't know that the two highnesses you coveted have already been fascinated by some coquettish fox? Ye Hongxuan's white magnolia flower, Wasn't it already sent out when Shangsi? If you go, are you still happy to marry that fat man?"

Thinking of the lump of fat on Yongming Canal that almost sunk the boat, Xu Mingzhu also showed some disgust on her face.

But she quickly said again: "Hey, Yunyun, you are so smart! As soon as I guessed, I guessed that His Royal Highness Duan Wang would also be present. He would come. When I first heard it, I was surprised. Half a day!"

However, Su Yun was a little uncomfortable by her praise.

Why did King Duan come?Why are you here?

Needless to say!

Xu Mingzhu tried a few words to confirm that Su Yun really did not receive the invitation, so she couldn't help but
