"What's wrong?" Xiao Mubai saw her eyes blinking slightly and thought she was blinded by the wind and sand.
Xia Chu suddenly came back to his senses when he saw a handsome face slowly enlarged.
He turned around hurriedly, changed the topic and asked, "Why did King Liang call you to the palace?"
The two of them had walked to the pavilion and sat opposite each other. Xiao Mubai put a piece of meat into Xia Chu's bowl and said, "Good things come in pairs. The State of Hu also intends to marry the State of Liang."
Xia Chu took a bite of the meat and thought while chewing it. In his previous life, he had never seen the marriage between Hu and Liang.
But at that time, the Hu State had won a complete victory in the previous battle with Zhao Jiajun.
Could it be that because of the current defeat and the revenge of Xiao Guo, he wanted to marry Liang Guo.
If the Hu State wanted to find an ally at this time, after thinking about it, it really had to be the Liang State.
After all, the Hu and Xiao countries have been enemies for generations, and the Mongolian people and Xiao people have just got married.
As for the Western Region, it was too far away from them and they knew very little about it.
Only the Liang Kingdom, with its strong soldiers and horses, could still watch and help each other.
"Is King Hu planning to marry his own daughter, or is he asking to marry a princess from the Liang Kingdom?" Xia Chu joked while picking up vegetables.
"It's not that straightforward, it's quite cryptic." Xiao Mubai reached out to wipe the flesh from the corners of her lips and wiped it on a wet wipe.
"How to hide it?" Xia Chu was now used to it. When he saw him reaching out, he no longer even instinctively avoided it.
"At this time in previous years, a grand hunting event would be held in the dense forest in the eastern suburbs. The Hu State would also send people to participate, and the two countries would compete and show friendship to each other. But this year, King Hu said that his precious daughter was also clamoring to come. I also hope that King Liang can also bring some young heroes with him." Xiao Mubai was quite satisfied with Xia Chu's compliance and slowly explained to her.
"Is this still vague? I just have to tell Prince Liang to take all the princes and let the princess choose." Xia Chu curled his lips.
Seeing Xia Chu's attitude now, Xiao Mubai felt that his youngest daughter's childishness was clearly revealed. He was really clumsy in his daily life, and it had easily broken his heart in those days.
"Has no one ever noticed you disguising yourself as a man?" Xiao Mubai was filled with doubts.
In the past, when I didn't know him, I just thought he was a little thin and too handsome.
Looking at it now, the picture of the naked shoulders will appear in my mind from time to time, and my imagination will wander.
"No, who would have thought that there was originally a legitimate daughter in Xiahou Mansion." Xia Chu didn't care.
"Don't be complacent, Yue Fengwan has probably figured it out already." Xiao Mubai scolded.
Now when I think back to the sound of "Ah Chu" being pulled by the moon wind, I feel an unknown fire in my heart.
"No way." Xia Chu thought about it carefully and felt that there were no flaws.
"Otherwise, you would think that he is so warm to you because he is a bad man." Xiao Mubai snorted coldly.
Xia Chu nodded and said "Oh". When he raised his eyes again, he smiled with a sly look on his face and said, "Xiao Mubai, are you praising my beauty?"
"With your beauty, you are not as good-looking as Yue Feng holding her own." Xiao Mubai glanced with disdain and said in a mean tone.
"Xiao Mubai, it turns out you are the one who is so masculine!" Xia Chu saw him praising a man who was prettier than him.
And, it’s still true!
She was shocked inside and retorted angrily.
Xiao Mubai was drinking soup when he choked on her words and kept coughing.
Xia Chu gloated and clapped his hands and laughed. Seeing that he had been coughing for a long time, he kindly handed over a wet wipe.
Xiao Mubai glared at him, took the wet wipe, and covered the corners of his lips to let out the thick breath in his throat.
That's what I said.
Really, he almost thought he had improved his masculinity...
When Xia Chu saw Xiao Mubai's cold expression, he didn't dare to be rude anymore. He licked the rice in the bowl obediently. After eating, he wiped his mouth and stood up and said, "Let's go, take me into the palace."
"I haven't finished eating yet." Xiao Mubai scolded angrily.
Xia Chu looked stunned, and then sat down again, holding his chin in his hands and watching Xiao Mubai eat.
Ravens are also very polite when eating, chewing carefully and slowly.
However, the nobility of Xiao Mubai was missing.
I saw him opening his lips and teeth slightly, swallowing silently, moving his hands and feet, moving in the clouds and flowing water, which was pleasing to the eye.
Xia Chu watched him eat and even felt that he could have another bowl.
So this is what beauty means
Xiao Mubai was so distracted by Xia Chu's hands holding his chin in such a girlish posture that he even swallowed when he saw him staring at her intently.
Xiao Mubai suddenly felt that the food in front of him was tasteless.
I just want to eat something else...
"Let's go." He took a sip of tea to moisten his throat, pushed the bowl and chopsticks, and coughed.
Xia Chu stood up in response and followed Xiao Mubai out of the pavilion.
Han Sa looked at Xiao Mubai's light steps, the corners of his eyes were full of joy, and the corners of his thin lips were smiling, and he couldn't help but feel relieved.
Having been glanced at by his piercing gaze before, I felt a hair in my heart and felt uneasy until now.
Seeing Xia Chu following behind with a smile on her face, she couldn't help but sigh, it's better for the young master to do it.
The two of them left Qiao Mansion, Xu Jing prepared the carriage, and Xiao Mubai and Xia Chu headed towards the palace.
"Who did you learn the etiquette of the Liang Palace from?" Xiao Mubai thought of Yingying's bow at the beginning of Xia, and couldn't help but be curious. That was the etiquette of the royal family, not the ordinary etiquette of the Liang Kingdom.
"Hmm." Xia Chuyi was speechless for a moment.
You can't tell him that you learned it from your mother...
"I met a noble person before, and she happened to be proficient in it, so I learned it." Xia Chu mainly didn't want to lie to him, so she spoke vaguely.
"You used to be on the mountain." Xiao Mubai didn't buy his account and looked sideways at him.
"Yes, it's on the mountain. That's why we met on the mountain." Xia Chu had no choice but to make nonsense.
Xiao Mubai snorted coldly, knowing that asking further questions would be prevarication, so he simply didn't bother to pay attention to him.
Seeing him closing his eyes and concentrating, Xia Chu breathed a sigh of relief. If Xiao Mubai continued to ask questions, she would invent a mistress for Bai Ruofei.
As the carriage jolted, Xia Chu's center of gravity became unstable and she was violently thrown to the opposite side. She was just thinking about Zilan Mountain when she lost her senses and was knocked over.
At this moment, he raised his head and fell into Xiao Mubai's arms opposite him.
She quickly stood up and retreated to sit opposite her. Her summer clothes were already thin, and the warmth that Xiao Mubai had just wrapped around her arms seemed to still remain.
The two looked at each other, then moved away in tacit understanding, slightly embarrassed.
The temperature in the small space rose rapidly, and both of their cheeks turned slightly red.
Han Sa, who was driving at this time, smiled slightly, and Xu Jing beside him was still scolding him: "How dare you laugh? You saw such a big stone and you still rolled over it. You are driving like this. When the young master comes down, Peel off your skin carefully."
Han Sa "tsk", rolled her eyes at him and said disdainfully: "You know nothing, you are too young after all."
"Why are you pretending to be young and mature? You will be rewarded later." Xu Jing angrily saw him looking smug and smug.
Han Sa snorted coldly and did not explain.
The corners of his mouth were slightly raised.
Maybe, there is really good fruit to eat...
