I still remember that time, Xiao Yichen blinked his starry eyes and vowed: "Xue'er, this is the tree we planted together. It will grow slowly and guard our love."
Thinking back to reality, Ji Lingxue raised a mocking smile, "Of course I remember."
So what? The tree is still there, but the people are no longer the same. Why talk about this now? Have a heart-to-heart with her
Xiao Yichen lowered his head and approached Ji Lingxue's face, looking down at her evasive eyes, and said word by word: "Then do you remember what token of love we placed under the tree?"
Ji Lingxue twitched the corners of her mouth and thought to herself: If I told you that I was penniless two days ago and asked Mo Xiang to dig up the jade pendant under the tree and pawn it, would you be angry
Ji Lingxue only dared to think about it, but she really didn't dare to challenge Xiao Yichen's bottom line.
After thinking for a moment, Ji Lingxue was about to speak when she found that Xiao Yichen's face in front of her was gradually getting bigger. The masculine aura was pressing towards her, making her breath suffocate.
Ji Lingxue's alarm bells rang. If he got any closer, his nose would touch mine. It was too dangerous!
Before Ji Lingxue could come up with a way to respond, a soft, delicate cry came from not far away.
Xiao Yichen turned around unhappily, and saw Ji Yuqing sitting on the ground in her gorgeous dress. She looked so pitiful that it made people feel pity for her.
Ji Yuqing blinked at Xiao Yichen and said softly, "Your Majesty, help me, my ankle... is sprained!"
Ji Lingxue was really grateful to Ji Yuqing for appearing so timely and saving her from "crisis".
Xiao Yichen frowned. For the first time, he felt that Ji Yuqing was annoying. She always showed up when she shouldn't.
Ji Lingxue pushed Xiao Yichen and said with a smile: "Your Highness, my sister needs you. She seems to be seriously injured. Look, she can't even stand up."
Ji Yuqing nodded vigorously, made a painful expression, and groaned: "Prince... It hurts so much..."
Ever since the incident of Ji's mansion falling into the water, Xiao Yichen understood that these were just tricks played by women fighting for favor. He smiled helplessly, it seemed that there would be some excitement in his backyard in the future.
Xiao Yichen squatted in front of Ji Yuqing, and Ji Yuqing suddenly dived into her arms like a wounded bird. Xiao Yichen wiped Ji Yuqing's legs, bent down, picked up Ji Yuqing, and turned away.
Ji Lingxue's voice came from behind, "My Lord, have a safe journey!"
Xiao Yichen staggered when he heard that, turned around and glared at Ji Lingxue who was smiling harmlessly.
After Xiao Yichen and Ji Yuqing disappeared, Ji Lingxue made a face, turned to look at the tree beside her, and stroked her chin in deep thought...
The next day, the housekeeper stood in front of Xiao Yichen and pleaded guilty: "My Lord, the tree you took the princess to see yesterday is dead."
Xiao Yichen waved his hand, "Okay, I understand." He didn't expect Ji Lingxue to hate him so much that she would not even let a tree go.
Seeing that Xiao Yichen was in a good mood and had no intention of blaming him, the housekeeper couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Xiao Yichen suddenly asked: "What is Ji Lingxue doing now?"
Housekeeper: "When I came here, I saw the princess fishing in front of the flower lake in the palace with a fishing rod."
The corner of Xiao Yichen's mouth twitched, "She is quite free to go fishing, let's go and take a look." He put down the documents in his hand, stood up and went out.
There is an artificial lake in the center of the palace. When the palace was first built, water from the moat was deliberately brought in. Ji Lingxue sat by the railing of the pavilion, holding a fishing rod in her hand and looking up at the sky.
Mo Xiang stood behind Ji Lingxue and fanned her. Although it was almost Mid-Autumn Festival, the weather was still a little hot.
Mo Xiang had sharp eyes and immediately spotted a graceful figure coming from the green. "Princess, the concubine is coming!"
Ji Lingxue hummed, looking straight at the fishing rod in her hand. Didn't Xiao Yichen just spend the night at her place? He was wagging his tail and showing off so soon, wishing to announce it to the world.
