Hearing this, Xie Ruzhuo immediately smiled and said, "The scenery here is so beautiful, does the princess still feel bored?"
Xiao Xinning smiled narrowly, turned around and pursed her lips, saying, "I'm just talking to myself, do you think I'm bored?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Xiao Junxi glanced at her sideways, "Don't talk nonsense." After saying that, she looked at Xie Ruzhuo with a smile, "Are you hungry? What do you want to eat?"
Xie Ruzhuo shook his head and thanked Xiao Junxi, and was pulled by Xiao Xining to sit opposite Xiao Junxi. Only then did she have the opportunity to take a look at him secretly.
This was the first time the two met after the blood exchange. After not seeing him for a while, he looked plumper than when he had the last blood transfusion, but his face was still as thin as ever. When Xie Ruzhuo looked at him, Xiao Junxi happened to look back. The look in his eyes seemed to drown her, and Xie Ruzhuo's face instantly turned red.
Xiao Xinning snickered and coughed lightly, "I'm going to pick lotus flowers on the deck. You guys wait for me." After saying that, she picked up her skirt and walked out without any explanation, leaving the two of them in the cabin.
There was silence in the cabin for a moment.
It was Xiao Junxi who was the first to say, "How are Zhuo'er doing lately?"
Xie Ruzhuo nodded and said, "Excuse me, Your Highness, I'm doing well lately." For some reason, she obviously had a thousand words to say, but as soon as she saw this man, she felt like there was nothing more to say. Just looking at him made her feel nothing but joy.
The fragrance of lotus flowers outside drifted in through the window. Xie Ruzhuo followed the scent and saw that the boat had reached the center of the lake, surrounded by lotus leaves within reach.
She looked at the scenery of the world, and she was his world.
Xie Ruzhuo turned around, saw him looking at her, and asked with a blushing face, "Master has not been to my place these days. I wonder how your highness is recovering now?"
Xiao Junxi smiled slightly and said, "What do you think of my appearance now?"
When Xie Ruzhuo heard this, he looked at her carefully and said, "She is still a little thinner." If he were fatter, he would not look so sickly.
Seeing her appearance, Xiao Junxi's heart moved. She resisted the urge to hold her in her arms and said dotingly, "It's okay for me to be thinner, as long as I can make you fat."
He was talking about love seriously, but Xie Ruzhuo was not so shameless anymore. He coughed and looked at the cup in his hand in panic.
After a long time, Xiao Junxi said softly, "That's great."
Xie Ruzhuo didn't hear clearly for a moment, but when he realized what he was saying, he smiled and said, "That's great."
Even though we have gone through many dangers, it is great that we are all still safe and healthy.
"Yes, my father will choose a site to build a mansion for me in the near future. This is the address he brought. You can choose which one you like." Xiao Junxi said and handed her several sketches wrapped together. .
Xie Ruzhuo took it and opened it, only to see the locations of several foundations and sketches for building a house.
She smiled happily, "Which one does your Highness like?"
The smile on Xiao Junxi's lips remained unchanged and she said softly, "I like everything you like."
Hearing this, Xie Ruzhuo immediately lowered his head and covered up the blush on his face by looking at the picture.
After all, Emperor Jing preferred this son, and the several sketches he gave were all in perfect locations. It was located in the center of the Imperial City Street, but it was also a quiet place amidst the hustle and bustle.
Xie Ruzhuo looked at it carefully, chose one piece after guessing Xiao Junxi's thoughts, and said, "What do you think of this, Your Highness?"
Xiao Junxi followed the direction of her finger and smiled softly, "I thought you would like this house more." As he said that, he pointed to another area.
The distance from Xie's family is not that far, and it is also adjacent to Dingnan Prince's Mansion.
Xie Ruzhuo's face turned red. She had indeed chosen this place at first. She just pointed to another place because she was thinking about Xiao Junxi's happiness. Unexpectedly, this man thought of everything for her first.
Seeing Xie Ruzhuo's appearance, Xiao Junxi knew that he had guessed correctly. She immediately put the picture away with a smile and said, "Then this is it. I will take you to see it when the craftsman starts to take care of the yard. At that time, press Just follow your preferences." After that, he added, "After all, this is our future home."
At this point in his words, Xie Ruzhuo didn't hesitate. He just felt that his heart was full of tenderness and sweetness, "Okay."
Xiao Xinning outside has never returned. Xie Ruzhuo also knew what her plan was, so he smiled and said, "I'll go out and see what the seventh princess is doing."
After Xie Ruzhuo finished speaking, she was about to stand up, but she accidentally stepped on the hem of her skirt and suddenly fell towards the ground.
Xiao Junxi caught her with quick eyesight, smiled sullenly, and said, "Zhuo'er, are you going to throw yourself into your arms?"
The eyes of the man in front of him were as bright as stars, and there was an unconcealable concern in that playful smile. Because he was holding her like this, all the breath from his body drifted into her nose.
Xie Ruzhuo was reluctant to withdraw from his embrace for a moment, and simply raised his eyebrows and said in a crooked manner, "If I say yes, what will your Highness do?"
Well, she admitted that she just had bad intentions.
With her arms full of warm fragrance and jade treasures, Xiao Junxi was a normal man. It would be strange if he didn't react. But now is not a good time. Xiao Junxi tightened her hands and said seriously, "After we get married, you will see what happens to me."
Xie Ruzhuo was immediately amused by him and wanted to laugh. His words were obviously meant to tease people, but they made this man say something about abstinence.
After thinking about it, Xie Ruzhuo stopped teasing him, stood up straight and said, "Your Highness, do you want to go out to enjoy the lotus together?"
Xiao Junxi said hello and followed her out. It's just that the brocade box hidden in his sleeve has been rubbed by himself many times, but he still doesn't have the courage to take it out.
When she saw the two people walking out, Xiao Xinning was immediately surprised and said, "Hey, why are you here?" She was holding two lotus flowers in her hands, and the pink petals lined her delicate chin. She was really more delicate than flowers.
Xie Ruzhuo smiled slightly and said, "Princess cannot have such a beautiful scenery outside for herself." After saying that, he took her hand again, gently smelled the fragrance of lotus, and said, "Become out of the mud but not stained, and wash away the clear ripples." It’s not a demon, it’s true.”
Xiao Xinning took the lotus back and said with a chuckle, "Don't think that I will give you the lotus if you chant a few sour poems. If you want it, find someone to pick it for you." She said, pursed her lips again, and He looked at Xiao Junxi with a smile on his face.
Xie Ruzhuo rolled his eyes at her and said, "You can tell me something wrong about anything. Is it possible that I can't do it myself?" After saying that, Xie Ruzhuo rolled up his sleeves, held up the hem of his skirt and walked to the side of the boat, stretching out his hand. Catch the lotus.
But she didn't really pick them. The boat moved forward leisurely, and when she passed by the lotus, Xie Ruzhuo put her arms into her arms. After smelling the fragrance all over my nose, I let go of the lotus flower and looked for the next one.
Xiao Xinning teased, "You seem to be a changer at first glance. You will smell all the lotus flowers in this lake."
Xie Ruzhuo smiled and retorted, "I sniffed it and it was still intact. But if you kill someone in a moment of interest, that would be a sin."
Hearing this, Xiao Xinning didn't know how to respond. He just snorted, turned around and said softly, "Third brother, she bullied me."
Xiao Junxi stood on the deck, watching the two laughing and laughing, and couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips.
At noon, the sun was particularly bright. Xie Ruzhuo and Xiao Xining had a great time, and then turned around and entered the cabin together.
A cook had already prepared a table of delicious food. The three of them cleaned their hands and started eating around it.
Xiao Xinning looked at the two of them from time to time. Seeing that neither of them spoke, she raised the topic first, "Brother, didn't the Qin Tian Jian test for good times and auspicious days earlier? Has there been any result?" What she said was, of course, The wedding date of the two.
Xiao Junxi curled her lips and smiled, "The Qintian Supervisor will send it tomorrow. I don't know yet. But my wedding date should be after the second emperor brother."
"Hey, has he made up his mind?" Xiao Xinning obviously didn't know about this yet and asked slightly surprised.
Xiao Junxi nodded and said, "Yes, it's the third day of July."
Hearing this, Xie Ruzhuo's eyes changed instantly. In her previous life, she and Shen Jingci married into the Second Prince's Mansion on the same day, and the date was also the third day of July!
Xiao Junxi naturally did not miss the change in her expression, and asked with concern, "What's wrong with Zhuo'er? Are you feeling unwell?"
Xie Ruzhuo shook his head and said with a smile, "Nothing, but at the age of the second prince, has the emperor not considered correcting his concubine?" Xiao Junyi has failed many times in recent times, but Xiao Junhan has the upper hand. If he were to marry a royal concubine, he would definitely choose a family that would be beneficial to him.
But the Zhang family will definitely be excluded.
There are only these aristocratic families in Beijing, who will he choose
But Xie Ruzhuo didn't expect that Emperor Jing would never give Xiao Junhan a chance to choose. Because Emperor Jing already had a candidate in mind.
Xiao Junxi vaguely understood her plan and did not hide it, "I heard from my father that there is a family, the daughter of the Minister of Zhongshu Province, Qin Wanyi."
After hearing this person's name, Xie Ruzhuo immediately wanted to laugh. Qin Sheng, the Minister of the Ministry of Education, was a poor man, and his daughter was also a well-behaved woman. She had met Qin Wanyi several times before, and the woman behaved in a very rigid manner, even drinking tea and gargling her mouth was extremely old-fashioned.
Xie Ruzhuo felt inexplicably happy at the thought of such a woman marrying Xiao Junhan as his concubine.
What makes her happiest is another point. The Qin family seems to be a second-rank official, but they have no family power at all! Such a family would not be of any help to Xiao Junhan's future.
I bet Xiao Junhan would be so angry that he would vomit three liters of blood after hearing the news, right
Xiao Junxi didn't know what she was thinking, but she saw smiles in her eyes and felt happy in her heart.
It was not until before leaving that Xiao Junxi took the opportunity when Xiao Xinning went to the toilet to take out the brocade box that had been hidden for a long time, and said nervously, "Zhuo'er, open it and take a look. Do you like it?"
Xie Ruzhuo took it with some doubts. After opening it, he saw a nine-turn phoenix hairpin carved from three-color jade lying inside. She looked stunned for a moment, and then said, "Your Highness, I cannot accept such an expensive gift."
At first glance, you can tell that this hairpin was carved by his own hands, so he must have put a lot of effort into it. Xie Ruzhuo felt the weight of this gift inexplicably and wanted to return it to him immediately.
But Xiao Junxi blocked her and said, "This is a haircut gift for you. How can I return it?" As he said, he added, "Besides, aren't all my things yours?"
Hearing this, Xie Ruzhuo's eyes instantly became moist. She knew that what this man said was always serious.
"Okay, then another day, I will return a great gift to His Highness."
The embroidery she has been embroidering for almost a year has come to the end.
Xiao Junxi just looked at her with a smile, "Okay, I like whatever Zhuoer gives me."
"Hey, what are you talking about?" Xiao Xinning came over with a narrow smile, grabbed the brocade box in Xie Ruzhuo's hand, and exclaimed exaggeratedly, "What a beautiful hairpin! Brother Sanhuang is partial, and you didn't even give it to me Pass me!"
