The Xiao Mansion is extremely lively today, and the atmosphere is extremely good, even more prosperous than New Year's Eve.
The old lady ordered to call all the people in the house, including a few aunts who couldn't get to the table on weekdays.
Xiao Zhan was naturally pulled back from the gentle fragrance, and when he heard that Xiao Jing was chosen to be the eldest prince and concubine, he looked dazed and stared at his daughter for a few times, still believing it.
In the end, he could only mutter that his family was out of luck.
The old lady sat the closest, and heard that she knocked him on the head.
Let him stop talking nonsense.
Then he greeted everyone to eat together.
The aunts were also inexplicably surprised, they never expected that the fifth girl, who was never looked down upon by others, would have such luck.
After listening to the whole process, no one knew what to say.
Sure enough, what the master said was right, what luck.
But no matter what, this is a major event concerning the entire Xiao family.
Everyone came forward to say some compliments, only one Xiao Ya, with an ugly face, left with a cold snort after eating half of it.
The old lady ignored her, but said in her heart, this girl is getting more and more unruly.
In fact, the old lady no longer had any hopes for Xiao Ya to be able to climb up to be the eldest prince this time.
Everyone in the Xiao Mansion here hadn't finished their hot meal when Xu Wei arrived.
Xiao Ting was surprised to see him, looked at the people sitting there, and asked suspiciously: "Xu Wei, what are you doing here?"
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Xu Wei had no choice but to bite the bullet and tell lies, "The general is here to find the Ninth Prince."
"Oh, my lord, he didn't come back with us."
When Xiao Ting heard that she was not looking for her, she ignored it.
"Does the princess know where the prince is now?"
"I don't know, by the way, you haven't eaten yet, let's sit down and eat together!"
She greeted people, and the other women stood up in an instant, and the table was mostly empty for a while, Xiao Ting was speechless.
In the end, Xiao Zhan got up, and as the only adult man in the family, he and Xu Wei walked aside and asked about the whole story.
After eating and drinking, Lucao reminded her that it's time to go back.
Only then did Xiao Ting think of something, "Grandmother, Fifth Sister will get married in a few days, which maid are you going to let go?"
Xiao Ting, who has lived in Nine Princes Mansion for so long, has a very real understanding of one thing.
When a woman gets married, she must bring a reliable maid, otherwise it is very dangerous.
This baffled the old lady, Miss Wu naturally had a servant girl by her side, but with her previous status, she just found a random servant and didn't care at all.
Now it's troublesome.
This is marrying to the eldest prince's side to be the main concubine, no matter how bad it is, she will be a princess in the future, which is comparable to Xiao Ting's current status.
Not to mention how many maids to bring, let's talk about the quality of the maids first, and no matter how you say it, there must be a governor like Lucao.
The old madam naturally didn't care about the status of the fifth girl before, and the servants who waited on her were all maids who hadn't read much.
Da Furen's heart was broken, and she said: "Mother, why don't you let Ying Hong by my side follow!"
When she opened her mouth, the old lady was just about to respond.
Xiao Ting said, "No, that's too old, it's not bad to be an aunt, and it's definitely not good to be a maid."
In the past two years, the Xiao family has been defeated again and again. In order to save money, the old lady has dismissed many maids and servants, leaving only those who can work and some old people.
Where will I find the right one at this time and a half
In the end, the old lady stared at Lu Cai, and said: "If you let Lu Huo go with you, anyway, your palace is more sensible, wait for Jing'er to stand firm there, and then let her go back."
In her opinion, this girl is stable, loyal, and has a heart, and she will definitely protect Xiao Jing.
Protecting Xiao Jing well means that he will have a bright future in the Xiao Mansion.
"That won't work, Luhuo is responsible for taking care of Xiao Xin." Before Luhuo could say anything, she directly refused.
Xiao Jing, on the other hand, was very appreciative and said, "Grandmother, Sixth Sister, don't make things difficult for me. I think Xiao Yang is pretty good, so let her follow me."
Xiao Ting scratched her head, a little speechless, she is really not suitable to meddle in other people's business.
"Okay, I don't care, go home."
Outside, Xu Wei waited until the flowers all withered, only then did he see Xiao Ting and his party walking out of Xiao's mansion.
At this time, it was dark.
"Hey, why are you still here? Didn't this concubine tell you that the prince is not here? Do you think this concubine hid him?"
"The end will be waiting for the princess here."
Xu Wei was speechless.
Xiao Zhan stood aside and asked Xiao Ting: "My dear girl, what trouble have you caused recently?"
"No, which bastard talked nonsense to you?"
Master Xiao stretched out his hand and pointed at Xu Wei, "He said it, he said he would take you back to the palace to return to life."
A certain Xu bastard stood aside, silent, sure enough, after a long time no see, he was still the same person.
Still so two.
Xu Wei cupped his hands, "The general will wait here for a long time, please return to the palace with the general."
"Oh, I remembered, this concubine and the prince are still in confinement."
Xiao Ting slapped her forehead, came back to her senses, then turned to Lu Cai and said: "Lu Cai, take them back, be careful on the way."
Then she patted her cheap father on the shoulder again, and said, "Father, I'm leaving."
"Hey, good girl, is it really in confinement? How did he say that you are in prison?"
Xiao Ting waved her hand, calling Xu Wei to go together, and then said: "It's all the same, by the way, you have nothing to go to the palace to see Xiao Shi, so that your son will not recognize you when he grows up."
When the two returned to the palace, the Ninth Prince was already in the Qiankun Hall.
"My lord, why didn't you call me when you came back? If Xu Wei hadn't picked me up, I wouldn't have been able to come in."
Xiao Ting complained as soon as they met, blaming Ninth Prince for not waiting for her.
Xu Wei is speechless: Girl, can you grow some snacks? This is a prison, okay
Hey, another silent tribute to the Ninth Prince.
"The king has been waiting for you."
Ninth Prince knocked on the table in front of him, motioning her to sit down.
Xiao Ting was in a good mood, Yiyan sat down opposite him, resting her chin on her hands, blinking her eyes, waiting for him to speak.
"What would the lord want to tell me?"
Xiao Ting did it for a long time, but she didn't see him making a sound, so she asked.
Ninth Prince raised his eyes: "Do you want to follow me to see the outside world?"
"You want to take me on honeymoon?" Xiao Ting was taken aback for a moment, and then burst out.
"En?" The Ninth Prince was puzzled, what is this.
"I mean, are you taking me out to play?"
Ninth Prince nodded.
Xiao Ting jumped up directly, then rushed over in two steps, hugged Ninth Prince, and slapped his face, leaving a saliva mark.
Nine Princes petrified on the spot.
And Miss Xiao Liu's eyes are already shining, there are little stars everywhere, and she starts to fantasize, "Where are we going? By the way, is there a map here? Are there any places of interest..."
She was nagging, and then she began to think that since she came to this time and space, she really hasn't gone out to play.
There are only two chances to go out, one time to go to the imperial tomb, and offend a certain bitch by the way, even though that bitch is dead.
The second time he went out, he was assassinated again. After wandering outside for so long, he also got into trouble with a prince from the Yue Kingdom.
All in all, the trip was not very comfortable.
This time, I can finally go out and play happily.
very nice.
"When are we leaving?"
"where are we going?"
"Do you want to take Xiaoyun and the others? Oh, you can take them if you get close, but if you go far away, it's tiring."
"Should I go to a place with mountains and rivers or a bustling city?"
Xiao Ting muttered alone, and began to circle around the Ninth Prince.
Excited inexplicably.
It took a long while for the Ninth Prince to come back to his senses, and raised his white palm to touch his face.
Looking up at Xiao Ting again, she saw a sincere smile on her face.
"You don't like it here?"
Ninth Prince's voice was neither surprised nor happy.
Xiao Ting gave him a supercilious look, "Of course, this imperial city, I don't agree with it, always come to me for something, if you can stay far away, then the big girl in the world is the biggest."
"This king has never seen the outside world." For some reason, the Ninth Prince said this out of nowhere.
Xiao Ting was choked for an instant, and asked with an expression like seeing a ghost, "Isn't it? You haven't been out since you were a child?"
Obviously she didn't believe it.
"This king is saying that he has never really gone out to play." Playing this word really makes the Ninth Prince feel awkward.
"Why? No time, aren't you free?"
An idle prince, will he have no time
"In your eyes, this king is very idle?"
Xiao Ting nodded as she should, "You are bored in the study all day long, and you hardly see you go out to do things. Aren't you free?"
Lord Nine looked out of the window and said, "This king cannot leave the imperial city at will, just like other kings are not allowed to enter Beijing at will."
Xiao Ting thought about his two words for a while, and suddenly she understood, "You mean, the emperor forbids you to leave?"
"Didn't he love you very much?"
"..." The Ninth Prince felt that he had something wrong with his mind, that's why he talked about such things with Xiao Ting.
"If you are willing, we will leave the imperial city together after a while."
Xiao Ting clapped her hands, "Okay, okay."
After she was happy, Xiao Ting remembered, "By the way, aren't we in prison now? The emperor will let us leave?"
"Yes, I will."
Ninth Prince nodded.
Xiao Ting walked over, patted the bed, and said: "Oh, I still want to sleep on the bed in the palace."
As soon as Xiao Ting rolled inside, she was ready to sleep.
Ninth Prince went outside for a while, and when he came back, some court ladies brought hot water, Ninth Prince patted her to get up and told her to take a bath.
Xiao Ting was a little sleepy, yawned a little, and said, "Does he stink?"
Ninth Prince looked at her seriously, and nodded very seriously.
Xiao Ting flicked her hair, stretched out her arms to embrace the Ninth Prince, put her head in his arms, and said: "Then you carry me there."
Ninth Prince: "..."
"go alone."
"I don't want it." Xiao Ting was a little confused, and started to play tricks, but she didn't let go of his waist, and then hugged him even tighter.
"I want you to hug, aren't you my husband? You don't even hug anyone, and you don't love him at all."
Xiao Ting was fascinated, she tilted her head and spoke, her tone was somewhat coquettish.
The Ninth Prince looked at the little girl who was clinging to his body, and finally hugged her helplessly, turned her into the screen, and placed her on the soft couch inside.
Then he patted her hand again.
"Relax, change your clothes and take a shower."
"No, you change it for me."
This time the Ninth Prince didn't respond, he broke away from her hand and turned around to leave.
At this moment, Xiao Ting opened her eyes, peeked out secretly, then covered her mouth and smiled lightly.
Heart said: It's really funny!
Innocent and beautiful youth!
The Ninth Prince went out of the house and summoned someone to look for Xu Wei.
Then let him talk about what happened after meeting Xiao Ting in detail, every word, every sentence, even what he ate.
