On that day, the streets of Jiankang City were overwhelmingly red, dazzling and festive.Three books and six ceremonies, full of friends; Fresh clothes and angry horses, Yan'er is newly married.Xiao Zhaoye stood quietly in front of the completed Nanjun Palace, his whole face was filled with a gentle smile, but his eyes were as hazy as the mist of autumn morning, as if he was in a different world.The flaming red sedan curtain was lifted, and he greeted it with a smile; The shouts of salute rang out, and he knelt down in tacit understanding; A lively congratulation struck, and he respectfully thanked him.He only felt that when serving tea, the eyes of the concubine looking at him were pity; In the middle of the meeting, the smiles of relatives and friends are pitiful; Outside the courtyard, the interest of the people in stopping and watching was pity, and even the woman standing beside her, covered with red silk, and not saying a word, the faint warm fragrance emanating from her body was also merciful.This is a fragrance completely different from the woman in my memory, sweet with a hint of publicity, blending into this bright red, no longer tender.The woman in the memory, the beauty in the deep house, the cocoon standing alone under the cool tile, and the swallows and warblers, are quiet.It has been more than a year since the meeting.However, Xiao Zhaoye never saw his titular fiancée until she became his princess.He Jingying, the daughter of the cavalry general He Ji, is virtuous and virtuous, talented and good-looking.This is all Xiao Zhaoye's understanding of her, a name, an identity, and two evaluations.The warm room was so quiet that only the footsteps of the man approached.The moment he lifted the hijab, what stared at Xiao Zhaoye was a pair of smart eyes, so clear that they couldn't tolerate any impurities, making him have an instant sway.It is true that the face has impeccable beauty, but the eyes are so bright that the eyebrows of the mantis and the soft coagulated fat are all lost.Those eyes, without the vigilance of the vicissitudes of life, did not see through the depth of cold and warm, but there was a kind of power, as if they could see through your heart between the eyes, which made Xiao Zhaoye tremble slightly, and hurriedly jumped his gaze to avoid this strange feeling.Slowly sitting on the couch beside the woman, the twinkling look at Fang Cai seemed to be still in effect, so that Xiao Zhaoye didn't know what to say."
You are the prince of Nanjun, the grandson of the current emperor" The first sentence between them was the silver bell-like voice.Xiao Zhaoye was stunned and nodded."
Huh, how can that be this Wen Tun look" She couldn't help laughing, her eyes flashing with bright brilliance, "My surname is He, my name is Jingying, and the small character is a slave." ”"You" Xiao Zhaoye was excited, and immediately frowned.He Jingying didn't care about this, she stood up by herself, walked to the table, picked up some pastries and longan to eat."
Childishness has not been taken off" Xiao Zhaoye had such an idea in his mind.For a while, I forgot that I was months younger than the girl in front of me."
Eat" He Jingying turned her head and stretched out a few dates in her palm, seeing that Xiao Zhaoye did not react, the corners of her mouth raised, "Yes, you have a good dinner, but it only hurts me, locked up in this small room, it is difficult to move an inch." ”Xiao Zhaoye had imagined countless times in his mind whether his future wife would be as smiling as an aunt, as pitiful as an eyelash, or as indifferent as thousands of women in this palace.But either way, he was ready to accept her and try to make himself fall in love with the woman he had never met.As Wang Jian said, the He family, who has no heirs, will not become a threat to him, and the woman who occupies the position of the princess will become the pillow person who accompanies him for a lifetime, which is the fate of Xiao Zhaoye's laziness and resistance.It's just that he never thought that his princess would have a childlike nature.Thinking of this, Xiao Zhaoye smiled self-deprecatingly, stood up and asked, "The princess still needs to be sent by the king from the side of the food." ”"No need."
He Jingying hurriedly stuffed various pastries into her cherry mouth, choked for a while, and thumped her chest to ease up."
Just now, the princess mentioned that she was a slave, and I will call you Anu Kehao" Hearing this, He Jingying's chewing action froze, and she picked up the small cup on the table and sent the liquid into her lips."
Ahem, it's spicy."
She stuck out her tongue and hissed, "I forgot that acacia wine is also wine." ”I'm afraid that even if the word "boiled water" comes out of her mouth, it won't be as calm as it is now.Xiao Zhaoye smiled helplessly and said goodbye: "That is the case, the princess is resting." ”Life is no different, except for the occasional news in the mouth of the subordinates that "the princess went to worship the Buddha with the crown princess today", the unintentional meeting in the huge courtyard, and the rare dinners together, Xiao Zhaoye almost forgot that he was a man with a wife.He kept telling himself that this was waiting, waiting for the day when the princess would grow up.I just don't want to admit the gleaming and escape in my heart.He was secretly satisfied with his current state, and under his grandfather's expectation of his increasing weight, he began to participate in politics and deacons, and gradually accumulated power; Under the attitude that he deliberately showed, his father never really attacked the mother's family; Under the laughter of the new princess every day, the court and the market are all spreading the harmony of the Nanjun Wangfu Qin Se He thought that soon, when his power grows in the court, he will be able to protect his mother and concubine and protect important people But, such a person, since the loss, who else is there He also asked himself if he was too indifferent to the wife he was marrying; has also tossed and turned, whether I should forget the past and concentrate on managing this marriage; He also had to hesitate whether he should find a gentle place for himself outside the power game, but before he had time to think about what was right and wrong, that day, the princess took the initiative to come to the door."
See the prince."
He Jingying, who was led into the door by the maidservant, bowed in a proper manner."
No courtesy."
Xiao Zhaoye looked at the person who came, facing the beautiful face, "What is the princess doing this trip?"
"Back to the prince," although the etiquette was thorough, her bright smile showed her childish nature, "Tomorrow, the concubine wants to go out of the city, the mother concubine has taught the concubine, and this matter must be warranted by the prince, so the concubine came to ask for it." ”"What's the matter with going out of the city?"
"It's just to enjoy the spring and relax."
Being detained in the palace all day long is also quite boring. ”He Jingying's lips pursed slightly, looking depressed and pitiful."
This" Xiao Zhaoye frowned slightly, recalling that a gang of bandits outside the city had occupied the mountains and been in chaos for several months, and the imperial court had encircled and suppressed them many times in vain."
That's it, the king of Ming Japan has nothing to do, so I'll accompany you out of the city to enjoy it.""
Prince" A trace of hesitation flashed in He Jingying's eyes, "Why bother driving the prince, the concubines can go by themselves." ”"You don't know, bandits have been rampant outside the city recently, and you should be very cautious when you go out of the city.""
The concubines will bring the guards and maids, so the prince doesn't have to worry.""
Why don't you want me to go along" Xiao Zhaoye looked at the woman in front of him suspiciously, but she didn't notice it, her expression was hurried, her eyes flickered, as if she was hiding something."
Of course not."
He Jingying denied it, then took a few steps forward, and whispered timidly, "Aren't we still familiar with each other, how aggrieved it is to go out together." ”"Hahaha," Xiao Zhaoye laughed when he heard this, "so I should accompany the princess even more."
Tomorrow, I will send someone to prepare the carriage and horses. ”On the second day, the spring was beautiful, and it was indeed a good day to travel.The two of them took the same car, except for the ordinary greetings, they couldn't find the next words, and the carriage fell silent for a while, but fortunately, the bustling noise of the streets made the atmosphere not too embarrassing.When the car reached the suburbs, the road became more and more rugged, and the carriage was so quiet that only the sound of wheels remained.It was a trip, but the curtain shook with the bumps, but no one lifted it to enjoy the spring.After walking silently for a while, He Jingying suddenly spoke: "Lord, the concubine is a little thirsty.Can you find a tea shop to rest for a while?"
Xiao Zhaoye ordered someone to stop at a tea house on the side of the road.The tea house in this wilderness is set up in the open air, and a high-hanging "tea" flag and a temporary gray cloth shed are the so-called storefronts.He Jingying didn't pick and choose, got out of the car and went straight into the shed and sat down."
Little second brother, five pots of tea."
He Jingying beckoned as she spoke, motioning for the attendant in civilian clothes to sit down at the adjacent table.Facing the inquiring glances of the attendants, Xiao Zhaoye nodded slightly, and then strode forward and sat at the same table with He Jingying.A cup of hot tea slowly slid into her throat, and He Jingying's eyes rolled, and she wanted to say something.At this moment, two men walked into the pergola in a loud voice, both dressed as ordinary peasants."
The stranger is really ridiculous, the matter of the king of Nanjun marrying is spreading in Jiankang City, after hearing this news, it is ridiculous and ridiculous to have no reason to believe it" The short-haired man put the firewood on the ground and laughed in a rough voice."
Brother Cheng is right, haha, it's just that the foolish brother heard that this princess of Nanjun is the daughter of the princess of Shanyin in the former dynasty.The name of Meng Lang, the princess of Shanyin, is well known to the world, and the first noodles raised are all handsome men. ”The tall man following behind said."
That's what you don't know."
The short-haired man said proudly, "This princess of Nanjun is a concubine, not Princess Shanyin's own child." ”"Even so, this is a lesson by word and deed" The man's vulgar laughter came into Xiao Zhaoye's ears, he frowned slightly, and watched the attendants look at him one by one, just waiting for an order to take down these two rumor-mongers.Xiao Zhaoye looked back at the woman beside him, only to see her head down and gently turn the teacup in her hand."
Wang" Xiao Zhaoye shouted that Fang felt inappropriate, remembering the conversation on the night of the cave room, he called softly, "Anu" did not fall, her hand holding the teacup trembled slightly, a crystal tear fell straight into the cup, and the rest of the tea immediately rippled.He couldn't bear it, slowly put his hand on the woman's shoulder, and said softly, "Country man, you don't have to take it to heart.Arrest and question those two people for their crimes." ”She hurriedly raised her head, her delicate face flushed, and the pear blossoms brought rain."
But the two of them" "Let's go, let's go, let's go back" She suddenly raised her eyes to look at him, almost pleading."
Good":
