Views:

Xie Ruzhuo was startled by her name, then smiled and said, "Mother, don't listen to Yong'an's nonsense. He just woke up and is still confused."

She didn't know why Mrs. Qiao thought about Xiao Junhan, but what happened tonight was that she lost Xie Huailin first. If Ms. Qiao knew about it, she would probably be worried.

However, her words caused ambiguity in Qiao's mind. She frowned and said, "Zhuo'er, don't blame me for talking too much. People from the royal family must not be touched, especially the second prince. His appearance is... "

At this point, Ms. Qiao felt that what she said was inappropriate again, so she hurriedly stopped talking, but she couldn't help but be worried, and seemed to be hesitant to speak.

Seeing this, Xie Ruzhuo knew that she was overthinking, so he had to explain, "Mother, it's not what you think. In fact, the man tonight is not the second prince, but the third prince - Xiao Junxi."

When she heard the name at first, Qiao was a little stunned. After a while, she said, "You mean, the third prince?" Qiao had a good impression of the third prince. After all, he had taken out Xuelian to save people on the hunting ground, and then relieved Xie Ruzhuo of his family at the daughter's banquet.

It is said that appearance comes from the heart, and the third prince is more than a hundred times stronger than the second prince in terms of appearance alone.

Xie Ruzhuo didn't know what Qiao was thinking, but she couldn't be vague about what she had to explain. She simply opened the skylight and spoke frankly, "Although we met by chance at night, we are just friends between gentlemen. Mother, please don't misunderstand. As for what Yong'an said about hugging me, But when I got off the carriage, I accidentally twisted, and the third prince accidentally hugged me while trying to help me."

After Xie Ruzhuo explained, Qiao's mind turned to another matter, "You were twisted, is it important?"

Xie Ruzhuo waved his hand and said with a smile, "It's okay. Fortunately, the third prince helped me in time."

Seeing that she was indeed fine, Mrs. Qiao felt relieved. Xie Huailin on the side was so sleepy that he yawned all day long. He staggered to Mrs. Qiao's side, held her arm and was about to take a nap.

The sound of the watchman could be heard faintly, and it was already approaching the second watch. Although Mrs. Qiao had a lot to say, she also knew that this was indeed not a good time, so she called the maid and ordered Haosheng to send the two of them out.

Xie Ruzhuo saluted, said goodbye to Mr. Qiao, took the lantern from Bizhi's hand, and walked slowly towards Tingfeng Courtyard.

Mrs. Qiao watched her go away at the door, then sighed and returned to the room.

Although the old lady had hinted openly or secretly that the daughters of the Xie family were not allowed to have too much involvement with the royal family. However, this Xie Ruzhuo is the reincarnation of Feng Xing after all, so how can he really be alone? If one day she had to marry a member of the royal family, Qiao would rather hope that this man would be the third prince.

Thinking about it, Qiao couldn't help but think about how to bring Xie Ruzhuo and the third prince together.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the New Year has finally come to an end.

Since his rebirth, Xie Ruzhuo has developed a habit of going to greet Xie Shengli every day. At the beginning, Xie Shengli was a little surprised, but as time went by, he became indifferent. It was just this granddaughter's understanding and thoughtfulness that made him love her even more.

Early that morning, she packed up and went to Ningxi Hall.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she passed the small gate with hanging flowers, she heard someone behind her calling her angrily, "Fourth sister."

When Xie Ruzhuo turned around, he was a little surprised.

I saw a young man standing a few steps behind him. He was young and had a capable light in his eyebrows. Perhaps he had been in the army for a long time, and his skin was a little darkened. When he smiled, he showed off his teeth that were not too white first.

It is the third young master Xie Huaiyang.

Seeing that it was him, Xie Ruzhuoxuan's expression became calm even though he was over his surprise, and he saluted, "Third brother is back from the army?"

Xie Huaiyang had previously insisted on joining the army, but Lu couldn't resist him, so he sent him to the captain's camp. Later, Xie Huaiyang really worked out some climbing methods. In his previous life, Xie Huaiyang claimed to be the fifth prince's brother-in-law. He naturally chose the fifth prince Xiao Junyi over party disputes and did many bad things for him. It's a pity that he usually doesn't restrain himself. It didn't take long before he was used as a scapegoat by the fifth prince in a land enclosure case.

He was only eighteen when he died, and he didn't even ask for a housewife. As a result, Mrs. Lu was so ill that she couldn't recover.

At this time, Xie Huaiyang had only been at Xiaowei Camp for more than half a year, and he hadn't climbed up much yet.

Hearing Xie Ruzhuo ask him, Xie Huaiyang felt a little proud at the moment, "Master Li said that I have done a good job on my errands and allowed me to come back and have a look. How are the fourth sisters after not seeing each other for a while? I heard that you were injured in the hunting ground. Can the wound be healed?" Does it matter?"

Xie Ruzhuo narrowed his eyes and smiled and said, "Brother Lao, I'm worried about it. I'm not seriously hurt."

"That's good." Xie Huaiyang nodded, "Speaking of which, the fourth sister is a lucky person. If she can win the favor of the emperor, she might become a phoenix one day."

Speaking of this, Xie Huaiyang's eyes flashed with greed again.

They all said that people with different opinions should not work together, but when he saw him like this, Xie Ruzhuo was unwilling to communicate with him anymore. He simply smiled and said, "I'm going to pay my respects to Grandpa first and take my leave."

Seeing that she was about to leave, Xie Huaiyang said quickly, "I'll come with you. I haven't come back for many days, so it's unjustifiable not to go and greet him." The old man never liked him very much. He had been reprimanded many times before. To this grandpa, It's also a bit timid.

He was happy, but Xie Ruzhuo was not. But he still had to work to save face, "Brother, I mean well, but I have to go make tea for grandpa first. Third brother should go first."

Hearing this, Xie Huaiyang could only nod his head and said, "That's it, that's it. I'll leave first. We brothers and sisters will have a chance to talk about it another day."

Xie Ruzhuo lowered her eyebrows and closed her eyes. When Xie Huaiyang walked away, she frowned slightly and turned around and walked towards the waiter.

People in Ning Xi Hall always get up early. When Xie Ruzhuo arrived, he saw Xie Shengli holding a big sword and practicing his sword skills vigorously, while Xie Huaiyang stood aside, looking a little at a loss.

Xie Ruzhuo didn't say much, turned around and went into the house, poured the prepared tea into the cup, waited for the tea to cool down slightly, and then walked out with the cup in hand.

When she came out, Xie Shengli had finished practicing a set of sword skills. Lin Mu had already prepared a towel, stepped forward to take the knife, and handed the towel to Xie Shengli.

Xie Shengli just wiped it casually, then came over to take the water glass, drank a few sips of tea, and then smiled and said, "Four girls came at the right time."

"Grandpa, it's this time every day, so I naturally have to come earlier. Otherwise, wouldn't it be disrespectful if I wasn't around when you were about to drink tea?" took it back.

Seeing her being so obedient, Xie Shengli couldn't help but smile and said, "You're so thoughtful, girl." As he said that, he looked at Xie Huaiyang standing aside and said, "You went to a school in the suburbs during the New Year and couldn't come back. You must have Mother must be very worried. Please try to persuade her more when you go back and don’t always think like a woman."

At the end of the new year, because Xie Huaiyang could not come back, Mrs. Lu made a big fuss with the old lady, and she was always in a depressed mood. In addition, there was good news in Liuyun's belly, and her new year became even more miserable. .

At this time, hearing that Xie Shengli's words were reproachful, Xie Huaiyang suddenly said anxiously, "Yes, grandson, please bear this in mind."

"Yes." Xie Shengli nodded slightly and said, "It's cold outside, so let's go inside and talk."

Although it was not the first lunar month yet and it was freezing outside, Xie Shengli didn't even have a brazier. There was a small hand stove, with a fresh color and compact shape. It looked like it was for women.

Sure enough, as soon as Xie Ruzhuo came in, he hugged the small hand stove and said with a smile, "If grandpa doesn't let me in, I will freeze." As he spoke, he looked like a little girl.

Xie Shengli used to dislike girls acting coquettishly, but when faced with Xie Ruzhuo, he had a different attitude, "Okay, you girl, you got an advantage and still act like a good boy. Let me ask you, how is the master you found?"

As soon as he mentioned this, Xie Ruzhuo's face immediately filled with a smile, "My grandfather has a keen eye and the people he finds are top-notch. Zhuo'er is so happy." Since she mentioned that she wanted to learn martial arts before, Xie Shengli They really found a master for her, who was said to be a famous swordsman in the world. Xie Ruzhuo studied with this swordsman for some time. Although it was a bit difficult, it was somewhat effective.

Xie Huaiyang felt a little unhappy when he saw that he was completely ignored when the two of them were talking. He had been held in the palm of Lu's hand since he was a child, and he had always been used to it. Now that he was in this situation, he suddenly felt a little resentful.

My grandfather has always been strict here, but it turns out that all his favors were given to one girl! But why is it that Xie Huaiyang, as the legitimate son of the third wife, works so hard to make progress, but cannot get favor from his grandfather

There was a fire in his heart, and he was hiding something and didn't want to leave, so he could only sit like this, his whole body was like a fire burning his buttocks, twisting and turning on the stool.

Xie Shengli glanced at him accidentally, and immediately felt a little unhappy, because he said, "Huaiyang, do you have something to tell me?" Seeing the hesitation on his face, I knew it was not a good thing.

Hearing Xie Shengli take the initiative to ask him, Xie Huaiyang was stunned for a moment, and then he said, "Grandpa, grandson, grandson."

"If you have something to say, just say it, a manly man, why are you hesitating!"

Seeing that Xie Shengli's expression was already stern, Xie Huaiyang did not dare to sit down, so he immediately stood up and said, "It's nothing to go back to my grandfather. It's just that when my grandson comes back, my boss Mr. Li asked me to prepare some small gifts for you. Please ask me "Bring it to you. He also said," At this point, he paused and then plucked up the courage to say, "He also said that if you still like it, he will come to see you in person soon."

After hearing what he said, Xie Shengli's expression completely darkened, and he still asked, "Then what did he ask you to bring?"

"Going back to my grandfather, it's an East China Sea luminous pearl. It's plump in shape and of excellent color. Although it's not priceless, it's still rare in the world!"

Xie Huaiyang said as he took out the box containing the night pearl. As soon as he opened it, he saw that the room suddenly lit up with color. I saw the brilliant light flashing inside the box, and against the red brocade, the night pearl as white as jade lay quietly in it, inadvertently taking away people's breath.

Xie Huaiyang held him in his arms and held his breath even more. It was not that he had never seen good things, but his father was just a businessman. How had this great gift ever fallen into his hands

Now that he was only a fifth-grade official, he could give out such a generous gift. Xie Huaiyang's heart became more and more itchy about becoming an official.

Unexpectedly, Xie Shengli's expression suddenly changed, and his face became clouded. He casually picked up the bergamot papaya on the side, threw it at Xie Huaiyang, and roared, "You stupid thing!"
