"What are you doing looking at me stupidly?" King Chen was lying on the windowsill, looking nonchalant like a cat basking in the sun: "I haven't seen you in a few days, so I don't recognize you so soon?"
He touched his face, and his face was not a vulgar appearance that he had forgotten.
Jiuzhu shook her head: "I didn't forget."
"Oh." Chen Wang suddenly said: "So you are looking at my face, you are stupid."
Jiuzhu: "..."
People in the capital are so thick-skinned.
"Come up quickly." King Chen beckoned to Jiuzhu, "I'm talking to you with my head down, it's a bit of a pain in my neck."
Jiuzhu rubbed her neck, she raised her head to speak, and it was very difficult for her neck.
There were no other guests upstairs, and Jiu Zhu looked around suspiciously.
"Don't look, there are no other guests except you and me." King Chen tapped the table with his knuckles, and someone brought all kinds of hairpin jewelry on the table for Jiuzhu to choose.
The spring equinox that followed behind Jiuzhu secretly took a breath. This store has moved out all the good things at the bottom of the box
"You can choose whatever you like." King Chen glanced at the tabletop: "Although the quality is a little worse, the style is barely discernible."
Jiu Zhu glanced at the shopkeeper who was standing beside him, and returned the Silver Peanut to him, covering his face and whispering to him, "It looks expensive."
King Chen dragged the carved round stool under his butt towards Jiuzhu, followed her example and asked in a low voice, "Is there not enough money?"
"Enough is enough." Jiuzhu clutched her purse as if she was clutching her beloved: "I can't bear to spend."
King Chen originally thought that the Ming family did not pay attention to this daughter who had just returned to Beijing, and was reluctant to spend money on her, but I did not expect this to be the reason.
As the future Princess Chen, why should you be stingy with money
"Don't worry, this thing is cheap." King Chen took a step and compared it with Jiuzhu's head: "I know the boss well, let him give you something cheaper."
Jiu Zhu looked at King Chen suspiciously, she suspected that he was the shopkeeper's trustee.
Looking at her, King Chen knew that she must be thinking wildly: "What do you mean by that look?"
Reaching out to cover her eyes, Jiuzhu shook her head: "I didn't think of anything."
King Chen: "..."
What is this place without three hundred taels of silver, this is it.
Reaching out and pulling her swaying braid, King Chen inserted the hairpin between Jiuzhu's hair with one hand.
"I gave it to you, I don't want you to spend money."
"I don't want it." Jiuzhu pulled the weeds up from the rockery... No, that's not right, took the golden hairpin out of the hair room and put it back in the tray: "The hairpin given by the boy cannot be accepted casually."
The fiancé gives the fiancée hairpins, what can't you accept
Is King Chen the kind of person who compromises when others say no
no, he is not.
So he poked two hairpins in Jiuzhu's hair.
Jiuzhu stared and pulled down both the "two grasses".
"Little girl, don't move." The overbearing prince Yun Duqing grabbed a hairpin and hummed at Jiuzhu.
"Don't." Jiuzhu quickly covered her hair, got up and hid in the corner, her voice soft with a Lingzhou accent: "If you do this again, I'll beat you up."
"What are you doing?" A gentle and doubtful male voice sounded. Jiuzhu clutched her purse and turned to look. King Qi in a light-colored robe was standing on the stairs, her handsome face was full of doubts, and her brows were lightly wrinkled.
"I have seen His Royal Highness King Qi." Jiuzhu released her hand and gave a blessing ceremony.
King Qi stepped into the house, looked at the scattered hairpins, arm bracelets and other items on the tray, picked up a coral red plum hairpin on the table, and looked at King Chen.
King Chen raised his eyebrows, walked to Jiuzhu's side, and while Jiuzhu wasn't paying attention, he straightened the crooked fringed hairpin in her hair: "It's really rare to see fourth brother here."
"Are you also a prince?" Jiuzhu asked in a low voice.
"En." King Chen quickly poked a hairpin in Jiuzhu's hair bag, flicked the king butterfly on the hairpin with his fingers, and nodded with a smile: "Yes, isn't it a coincidence?"
This little girl looks ignorant, not very smart, and looks a little cute and cute when she covers her head.
Seeing the two of them whispering, their heads almost touching, King Qi put the hairpin back in place: "Because my brother is about to get married, the mansion naturally needs to prepare the things that women need."
After he finished speaking, he didn't wait for King Chen's response. He turned around and saw that King Chen was still trying to put a hairpin on the girl of the Ming family. The girl of the Ming family covered her hair and stared at King Chen with big eyes.
"Put it on."
"I don't want it." Jiuzhu took a step back: "You are the prince, I can't beat you. But I can... I can ask others to beat you."
"Oh?" King Chen wanted to reach out and poke Jiuzhu's face, but he held back.
"My fiancé is King Chen, he is super nice, super nice, super nice." Jiu Zhu straightened up: "I'll let him hit you."
The three super easy to say, Chen Wang first laughed, but looking at the seriousness in the little girl's eyes, he put down the hairpin in his hand: "Okay, okay, it's my fault."
"I know you are well-intentioned and want to give me something." Jiuzhu took the golden butterfly hairpin from her hair: "The capital is prosperous, and you can do things freely without too much restraint. However, in our Lingzhou, there are only family members and elders. , Only friends in the boudoir and the husband can send hairpins to women. Although the ministers and daughters are already from the capital, they grew up in Lingzhou. It would be inappropriate to accept the hairpins that you gave as a gift.”
After several encounters, King Chen rarely saw such a serious look on Jiuzhu's face. He looked at Jiuzhu's eyebrows carefully, and suddenly laughed: "Little girl from the Ming family, do you know my title?"
Jiuzhu shook her head.
"I was born in Xiande twenty-three years, and my father named me Duqing, which means that even if there are all kinds of hardships in the world, my beloved son can cross without any suffering." Yun Duqing put his hands behind his back, his tone Rare tenderness: "When I was fifteen years old, I was enthroned as a king, and the title was Chen."
Jiu Zhu stared at him blankly, the autumn wind blew across the windowsill and rang the copper bell under the eaves.
"Whether the rules of the capital city or the customs of Lingzhou, this king has never given other little girls any jewelry." King Chen saw that Jiuzhu was still looking at himself in a daze, and put the king butterfly hairpin that Jiuzhu had taken off for Jiuzhu. Go back: "The wings of this king butterfly are as thin as cicada's wings, and the little girl wears it just right."
This time, Jiuzhu did not take off the hairpin.
"Look, toss it back and forth, let me put it on for you, save trouble." Yun Duqing stretched out his finger and poked Jiuzhu's forehead lightly, but couldn't help poking it again, the butterfly wings in his hair were light Dance lightly.
Jiu Zhu covered her forehead and tilted her head to look at him: "Are you really King Chen... Your Highness?"
"Could it be that in the entire capital, there are still people who dare to pretend to be King Chen?" Yun Duqing touched his chin: "In a few days, it will be the birthday of the concubine, and the royal father will hold a banquet in the palace. Remember to come with Mrs. Shen."
"You are really King Chen." Jiuzhu looked at Yun Duqing, and a bright smile suddenly appeared on her face: "That's good."
At that time, he was a kind-hearted little fairy. Now he is still a good person who is not angry when others say bad things about him, and who will ask someone to help her fight when she sees her going to a fight.
"Why, very happy?" King Chen saw Jiuzhu smiling happily, and couldn't help but also smiled.
"Well, happy."
Seeing each other again after eight years, how could he not be happy to learn that everything is fine with him and Concubine Su Gui
Ugh.
King Chen looked at Jiuzhu's white and tender cheeks, this simple and naive temperament, he would be the one to marry in the future, if he married someone else...
Frowning unconsciously, he turned to look at King Qi: "Is the fourth brother still there?"
King Qi put the selected jewelry into the box, and said slowly, "Have you picked your fifth brother?"
"When choosing accessories for a woman, it's better to let her come with her." King Chen lowered his eyelids and said casually, "If the other party doesn't like it, wouldn't it be disappointing."
"Really?" King Qi glanced at the hairpins in the tray that were picked by King Chen but rejected by Ming Jiuzhu: "Miss Ming doesn't seem to like the ones picked by fifth brother?"
"No." Jiuzhu said, "His Royal Highness King Chen has a unique vision and elegant aesthetics. I like every piece I choose. It's just that the courtiers and daughters couldn't bear His Highness to spend more money, so they reluctantly refused."
No one can question the aesthetics of His Royal Highness King Chen, not even His Highness's elder brother.
Unique eye
King Qi stopped the hand holding the hairpin, looked at Jiuzhu with beautiful eyes, then smiled gracefully, and nodded to her: "Sorry, this king misunderstood."
"It's all right." King Chen stepped forward and stood in front of Jiuzhu: "I have a big heart and don't care about such trivial matters."
"My lord." A middle-aged man in dark blue clothes with a scar on his chin walked upstairs. He didn't seem to expect that there were other people there. He gave a big salute to King Chen, and didn't even look at the person behind King Chen. Jiuzhu, walking to King Qi, cupped her hands and said, "Master Hou is seriously ill."
"I see." King Qi put down the jewelry box, motioned Chang Sui to check out, and turned around and left the jewelry shop with the middle-aged man in a hurry.
"Miss, Miss?" When the Spring Equinox saw King Qi leaving, Jiuzhu didn't salute. Fortunately, King Qi walked in a hurry and didn't notice the rudeness of Miss: "What's the matter with you?"
Jiuzhu slowly shook her head: "What is the identity of the middle-aged man who came just now?"
"Look at his dress, he looks like a servant of Pingyuan Hou's mansion or Qi's mansion." The spring equinox thought for a while: "If he can come to deliver the news, he must be the confidant of the master's family."
Noticing that the lady's face was a little pale, she touched Jiuzhu's hand on the spring equinox, only to find that her palm was a little cold: "Miss, wait a minute, the slave will go to the carriage to get you a cloak."
"I'm not cold..."
Before she finished speaking, a large dark cloak was placed on her body.
"Finish it." King Chen saw the cloak slide down, reached out and pulled the lace up, and went around the lace, successfully tying the lace into a dead knot.
Equinox: "… "
The difficult act of tying a cape is really embarrassing for His Royal Highness, King Chen, who is serving in groups.
Pretend not to see the dead knot he made: "Mother's birthday is coming soon, don't freeze it."
At that time, I can't go to the birthday banquet. After the news spread, others thought that this girl was not compatible with his mother and concubine.
It is said that the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is the most difficult thing in the world. He doesn't want to worry about this kind of thing in advance before getting married.
For Jiu Zhu, the man's cape was a bit long. She looked down at the cape that was already dragging on the ground, and pulled it up.
"Oh." Jiuzhu nodded obediently.
King Chen: "..."
At such a time, shouldn't I take the opportunity to ask him about the mother's preferences, so that I can prepare a birthday ceremony that fits my mother's heart
Oh what
Can we have a snack? !
