It is rare for Hei Xuanyi and Wu Ruo to have time to chat alone, Hei Qian was very caring and walked a long way around before returning to the palace.
It was Haishi when I returned to the imperial office, and the six guards sent by the emperor in the morning were no longer in the Hengxing Palace. Wu Ruo and Hei Xuanyi quietly came to Dandan and the small room. Seeing that the child had already fallen asleep, they lightly He gently pulled the quilt for them, and then walked out of the room and asked Heixin who was sleeping outside: "How are the two children getting along with the great-grandfather today?"
Heixin smiled and said: "The two Highnesses didn't say a word to Emperor Gaozu and the others, and they didn't even meet their eyes. Emperor Gaozu and the others saw that the two little Highnesses are so cute and cute, and they felt itchy, but they couldn't hug them." , when they left Hengxing Palace, all six of them were downcast."
Hei Xuanyi nodded slightly: "Well done."
Wu Ruo rolled her eyes: "Is there anyone who allows a child to treat his great-grandfather like this?"
Hei Xuanyi said: "They are all a bunch of old stubborn, they have a good face, and they like to put on airs because of their seniority. If the children are not allowed to do this, I am afraid that when we get married, they will not be ashamed to accept you. I don't want us When we get married, something unpleasant happens."
Wu Ruo didn't want to look at other people's faces when she got married, so she let them go.
Hei Xin picked up the small box on the table and handed it to Wu Ruo: "Crown Princess, the in-laws sent news in the afternoon that the ghost woman has returned to the palace. I have to leave the mansion to pick up the quest. This is the talisman drawn by the hag when she goes out on a quest, and she entrusts you to put it in the shop and buy it."
"Accept the task?" Wu Ruo frowned and took the box. Although she didn't know why she was so active in earning money all of a sudden, she felt at ease knowing her whereabouts, and she could arrange other things by herself.
"Yes, that's what the guards sent by my in-laws told us."
Wu Ruo looked at Hei Xuanyi: "Xuanyi. The ghost may be my grandmother."
"how do you know?"
Wu Ruo and Hei Xuanyi left Dandan's room, and then told Hei Xuanyi about the encounter with the two brothers from the You family today and their previous guesses: "From what they said, I'm sure the ghost is my grandmother?"
"Ninety-nine are not far from ten." Hei Xuanyi also felt that Wu Ruo's guess was right: "I once sent someone to inquire about the fact that the You family is from the old clan, and the incident happened more than forty years ago. I want to investigate this matter. Things are not easy."
Wu Ruo shook her head: "As long as the hag doesn't harm my family, there's no need to investigate. By the way, when Wu Bo is auctioned tonight, are you the one who finally took him down?"
"Well, the slave market is about to be shut down. If you don't want to spend your money in vain, let your subordinates follow suit."
Wu Ruo asked curiously, "How do you know I'm bidding?"
A smile welled up in Hei Xuanyi's eyes: "Before I went upstairs, I heard so many good things from you, so of course I have to remember the voice under your mask to be worthy of your praise?"
Wu Ruo hugged his waist, raised her head and asked, "Honestly speaking, after hearing so many praises from me, don't you feel happy?"
Hei Xuanyi didn't deny it: "It can make me happy for several days."
Maybe when I think about it later, I will still feel happy.
Wu Ruo kissed him on the chin with a smile.
Hei Xuanyi's eyes darkened, and he quickly bent over and led him to the bathroom.
The next day, Emperor Gaozu and others came to Hengxing Palace again, Dandan and Xiaoxiao still ignored them, Emperor Gaozu and the others didn't know how to coax the children, so they just kept wasting.
The days passed very quickly, busy, and in the blink of an eye, it was August 29th, and Wu Ruo's 20th birthday was also ushered in.
Wu Qianqing and the others entered the palace early in the morning to celebrate Wu Ruoqing's birthday. The arrival of Xiao Wuyou and Xiao Yeji made the originally deserted palace instantly lively. Every corner was full of children's laughter. The eunuchs in the palace The maids were also infected and smiled.
Wu Ruo looked at the people celebrating his birthday in the hall, and couldn't help but think of the 20th birthday of his previous life. At that time, because of Wu Zhu's death, his parents were in mourning, so they didn't celebrate his birthday. For dinner, his mother cooked a bowl of noodles for him as a birthday, so I didn't expect that today's Weiguan's birthday would be so lively and grand.
"Xiao Ruo, what are you in a daze for?" Wu Zhu took his birthday gift and handed it to Wu Ruo: "It's for you."
"Thank you, brother." Wu Ruo accepted the gift with a smile.
"I have it too, I have it too." Wu Xi happily handed the gift box to Wu Ruo.
Others also took out gifts one after another.
When it was Zhiyi's turn, Wu Ruo froze for a moment, looked at Jixi who had become an adult and said in surprise: "Jiyi, have you turned back into an adult?"
The meaning of becoming an adult has not changed much, but the face has become bigger and sharper, and the figure has also become taller. The whole person looks much more mature, but still the same arrogant.
Ji Xi snorted softly: "To participate in the competition, of course you have to turn back into an adult."
Ye Ji, who was standing beside him, said, "Thank you very much for holding the magician competition in the black market."
Otherwise, he doesn't know how long he will have to wait until Jixi nods and turns back into an adult.
Wu Ruo asked: "When did you change back?"
Ye Ji said: "I was only willing to eat the top-grade spirit pill I bought for him this morning to turn him back into an adult."
Ji Xi glared at him, turned around and went to the chair beside him.
You Ye put his arms around Ye Ji's shoulders, and whispered, "These days, you must be overwhelmed, right?"
Ye Ji glanced at him coldly: "You are the one who understands my feelings the most, do you still need to ask?"
Although Wu Zhu looks like an adult, but like You Ye, he doesn't have intercourse.
You Ye snorted coldly: "I can at least hold Xiaozhu's hand, kiss his little mouth to quench his thirst, and you, can you lay hands on a six-year-old child?"
Ye Ji: "..."
Wu Zhu said angrily with a handsome face, "Can you two stop talking about indecent things on Xiao Ruo's birthday?"
You Ye smiled and took Wu Zhu's hand, "Don't talk, I won't talk, we'll talk about it when we go back to the room at night."
Wuzhu glared at him angrily: "You still say it."
You Ye just shut up.
Wu Ruo took a sip of tea: "I said, can you stop provoking me by intentionally being affectionate in front of me when my partner is not in the palace?"
You Ye asked: "Where is Xuan Yi? Why is he not in the palace on such an important day? If it were me, I would put aside even big things to accompany Xiao Zhu."
Wu Ruobai glanced at him: "Tomorrow is the day of the magician competition, he needs to go to the border town to inspect, and come back at noon to celebrate my birthday."
"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, here we come." Before Hei Xuantang entered the door, he heard his cry outside the hall, and then Hei Xuanyi and his five brothers and sisters walked in.
Seeing Hei Xuanyi who came in at the end, Wu Zhu couldn't help but exclaimed: "Xuanyi, didn't you go to inspect the border town? Why did you come back so soon?"
Hei Xuanyi nodded slightly to Wu Zhu, expressing his greetings.
Wu Ruo looked at Hei Xuanyi, slightly startled.
Wu Xi jumped up from the chair excitedly, "Brother Yi, what birthday gift did you prepare for the second brother?"
Hei Xuantang and Hei Xuanxu looked at each other and smiled.
Wu Ruo glanced at Hei Xuantang and the others, and took a sip of tea leisurely.
You Ye said: "Xuan Yi is Xiao Ruo's partner, and the congratulatory gift he gave must be better than ours."
Wu Ruo smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if you have gifts or not, as long as you are with me."
Hei Xuantang pushed Hei Xuanyi in front of Wu Ruo: "Brother came back early because he knew that sister-in-law wanted him to accompany him."
Wu Ruo put down the teacup, looked up at Hei Xuanyi in front of her, and then burst into a bright smile.
Hei Xuanyi flickered slightly.
Wu Ruo looked at Hei Xuantang: "Get a fake to fool me, aren't you afraid that your elder brother will come back and beat you?"
Hei Xuantang was taken aback for a moment: "Sister-in-law, did you see it?"
Hei Xuanxu was also very surprised: "Sister-in-law, how did you recognize it?"
"As soon as he walked in the door, I knew he wasn't my husband."
Hei Xuanxi, Hei Zihe, and Hei Ziya looked surprised: "What? He's not our big brother? No way?"
The others were also surprised: "Isn't he Hei Xuanyi?"
Hei Ziya walked up to Hei Xuanyi in disbelief, looked left and right, but no matter how I looked, I couldn't see the difference: "I walked with him all the way and didn't realize that he is not our eldest brother, sister-in-law, how did you tell? "
Everyone also looked at Wu Ruo curiously.
Wu Ruo said very proudly: "When my husband enters the door, I will definitely be the first person to see.
Everyone is speechless.
Hei Xuantang asked: "Is it just because of this?"
"Of course there are others." Wu Ruo said to 'Black Xuanyi': "Although his walking posture, temperament and other aspects are very similar to Xuan Yi, it can be seen that he has specially trained to imitate Xuan Yi's words and deeds, However, human feelings cannot be trained, and the way he looked at me was very strange.
Hearing this, 'Hei Xuanyi' immediately changed his expression and tried to show affection for Wu Ruo.
Wu Ruo laughed and said, "No matter how much you pretend, it's useless. You don't like me, you just don't like me. This kind of feeling cannot be faked. No matter how affectionate you are, I can still feel it."
'Hei Xuanyi' sighed, and stopped imitating Hei Xuanyi: "The eyes of the crown princess are as sharp as the eyes of an eagle, and my subordinates admire them very much."
Wu Ruo smiled and said: "Actually, you've pretended very well, but you're missing the emotion you should have.
Hei Xuanxu patted Hei Xuanyi's shoulder: "Okay, you can go down now.
"Yes."
Wu Ruo asked Hei Xuxu: "Why did you bring this person? Could it be a congratulatory gift for me?"
Hei Xuanxu quickly denied: "Of course not, if I give this to my sister-in-law, I will definitely be beaten to death by my elder brother."
"Then he..."
"He is the stand-in of the elder brother, and he is responsible for replacing the mission of the elder brother's patrol tomorrow. We brought him here just to tell you, don't misidentify the person when the time comes, and also want everyone to see if you can recognize him as a fake. .”
Wu Ruo asked curiously, "Xuan Yi doesn't need to patrol tomorrow?"
"Of course, it's just a secret inspection. Tomorrow, brother will wear fake leather, which is the face you have seen before. You have all seen wearing fake leather, so I won't say more."
