Zhennan Wang fidgeted and waited for two cups of tea in the outer study, but he did not wait for Xiao Yi.
"My lord, my son said he was busy and didn't have time to be filial..." Kikyo said respectfully.
When Zhennan Wang heard the words, his face was flushed with anger, and he said in his heart: This rebellious son is clearly in the mansion, but he dares to make vague excuses not to come to see his father, it is really unfilial...
Zhennan Wang blurted out and was about to interrupt Kikyo, but he heard a familiar milk voice coming from outside the house: "Yeah, ehh!"
This, this is...
King Zhennan was stunned for a moment, his eyes lit up, only to hear Ji Jiao continue to say: "So the son asked the grandson to come and do his filial piety to the prince on his behalf."
It's really his precious brother Jin Sunyu who came to pay his respects to him!
King Zhennan suddenly forgot why he was still angry before, and glared at Kikyo angrily, as if complaining why she didn't speak up earlier.
"Hurry up and invite your grandson to come in!" King Zhennan hurriedly said.
As he said that, King Zhennan thought of something again, and quickly scanned the ground, rejoicing in his heart: Fortunately, he had laid a carpet in the study for his precious Jinsun, otherwise, if the teacup fell to pieces all over the floor, it would be accidentally broken If you hurt Jinsun, don't you want to feel sorry for yourself to death!
"Quick! Clean up the floor!"
King Zhennan hurriedly ordered the servants in the study to pick up the tea cups and inkstones that fell on the carpet.
At the same time, under the guidance of Kikyo, Juan Niang came in holding Xiao Yu wearing a carp hat, followed by Hai Tang.
Juan Niang and the others saluted the Zhennan King first, and the little Xiao Yu in Juan Niang's arms could not wait long ago and waved her paws "Yeah", wanting to go to the ground, but in the eyes of Zhennan King, she automatically Turned into baby Kim Sun sees him desperately wanting to play close to him.
Sure enough, it was Jinsun who fell in love with him!
"Brother Yu, come to grandfather." Zhennan Wang smiled so much that his eyes narrowed, he hurriedly took Xiao Xiao Yu over, picked up the rattle beside him, and was about to shake it a few times, but saw Xiao Xiao Yu Yu had already reached out to grab the white jade peony phoenix pen holder on the desk, and squeezed it in his little fist with a smile, refusing to let go.
"Brother Yu, you really have vision. Grandpa's pen holder is a good thing left by the previous dynasty..." Zhennan Wang said eloquently. Show off the various collections in your study.
Little Xiao Yu, who was playing with the pen rest, was suddenly distracted, dazzled by the vases, incense burners, bonsai, fish ponds... He clapped and laughed, which made his grandfather feel good. Kikyo secretly heaved a sigh of relief as the grandparents and grandchildren chatted and laughed.
"Brother Yu!" The more King Zhennan looked at Jinsun, the more delighted he was. Unlike Xiao Yi's rebellious son, who was reincarnated by his enemy in his previous life, Jinsun and himself were destined, "Be good, don't learn from your father, and in the future grandpa will be like this." Good things are all yours…”
Saying that, Zhennan Wang sighed quietly, frowned, looked at Xiao Yu with a sad face, and sighed: "Hey, your father, that prodigal, has no limits in his actions. When you grow up, I'm afraid your father has already ruined the little family business left to him by your great-grandfather..."
Begonia and Juan Niang at the side all lowered their heads, as if they didn't hear.
"But it's okay. Grandfather has more than these good things. From now on, they will all be yours. Grandfather will keep them for you, and no one can take them away." Zhennan Wang touched Jinsun's carp hat and smiled lovingly.
"Yeah!" Xiao Xiaoyu yelled excitedly at the golden crucian carp in the fish pond, then raised his round, white and tender face, and looked at Zhennan Wang expectantly, wanting his grandfather to be like a father catching a cat Like a son, he catches a fish for himself to play with.
"Our brother Yu is so good!" Zhennan Wang looked at Xiao Xiaoyu's big black and white eyes filled with anticipation, and felt comforted by Lao Huai.
Jinsun knew that he was kind to him at a very young age. As the old saying goes: "Things must be turned against each other".
Little Xiao Yu, who was only eight months old, naturally didn't understand anything, and Haitang lowered her head, hiding the corner of her mouth and couldn't help laughing. It was obvious that the prince was annoying the prince, and that the grandson was robbing him of the concubine. , so he simply killed two birds with one stone and threw the grandson over to the prince. Unexpectedly, by mistake, the young grandson "coaxed" the prince to pass on the family property to him without saying a word.
It is said that Daji and Baosi confuse the king and harm the country and the people. Why does she feel that compared with their grandchildren, she is nothing but a pale witch
Haitang's shoulders trembled almost imperceptibly, her muffled laughter was overwhelmed by the hearty laughter of Xiao's grandparents...
The cloud above the palace was swept away, and it became clear and bright again.
Xiao Xiaoyu arrived at the palace, but Xiao Fei went from the palace to Bixiaotang.
Xiao Fei originally planned to find Nangong Yue, but learned from Huamei that her eldest brother Xiao Yi did not go to the military camp today, but was also in the mansion.
Xiao Fei also heard about Xiao Yi's upcoming expedition, and hurriedly said to Huamei: "Humei, don't bother sister-in-law... Anyway, I'm fine."
After that, Xiao Fei returned to Yuebiju.
As soon as she entered the room, Tao Yao quickly walked up to her, and said solemnly: "Girl, His Royal Highness the Third Princess has sent another gift." Tao Yao's eyes were full of worry.
Xiao Fei subconsciously slowed down her steps, her eyes flashed, showing a hint of indifference, and then she said: "Bring me to the small study."
Soon, a small box the size of a book was sent into Xiao Fei's small study.
Sitting behind the mahogany desk, Xiao Fei personally opened the small red lacquered wooden box. Inside was a jade bracelet on a black velvet cloth, the quality of the jade was quite transparent.
Xiao Fei took out the bracelet and put it aside, then pressed on the black velvet cloth, her fingers froze on it for a moment, then quickly peeled off the black velvet cloth, and there was indeed an envelope underneath.
Without any further hesitation, Xiao Fei opened the letter inside.
This letter is written on the same silk paper, with the same handwriting on it, this time, there are only a few words on the silk paper—
At Sishi tomorrow, we will meet at the Lanzhu Pavilion on the second floor of Tayun Restaurant.
There was no title or signature on the letter, and this sentence was not an inquiry, and the other party would not allow her to object at all.
There was silence in the small study, Xiao Fei stared at the tissue paper for a long time, her cold eyes were as deep as a bottomless abyss, after a long time, she murmured to herself: "How about going to meet her?" …”
Xiao Fei's voice was so soft that only she could hear it.
Tao Yao seemed to have heard it, her body trembled slightly, she wanted to persuade her, but she couldn't. The eldest girl has always had her own opinions in dealing with people, just like how she dared to go to the royal capital with herself and Bai Zhou...
Xiao Fei slowly folded the letter paper back again, and said to herself in her heart that the eldest sister-in-law was already very busy in managing the middle office of the Wangfu and Bixiaotang, and now that her elder brother was about to go to war again, she couldn't let them distracted.
Over the years, my sister-in-law has spent so much time and effort teaching me, and even gave Ling Xiao to me...
Her surname is Xiao, and she is the eldest daughter of the Zhennan Palace. She is no longer the delicate flower who grew up in the greenhouse under the protection of her mother.
Now, she is old enough, she will get married in the future, and then become a wife and mother, she can't just come to Bixiaotang to find her sister-in-law whenever she encounters difficulties and doesn't think about how to deal with it herself? !
As she thought about it, Xiao Fei's eyes and expression became more and more determined. Her bright eyes shone like jewels and glowed like a moon. Although they were not as bright as the sun, they were confident, calm, and elegant.
Taoyao on the side stared blankly at her own girl, feeling that the girl in front of her was so familiar yet so strange, was this still her noble and innocent girl
"Taoyao! Pen and ink are waiting for you!"
Xiao Fei said suddenly, Taoyao was startled, and skillfully helped to grind the ink.
Xiao Fei laid the paper herself, pressed the paperweight, picked up the pen, dipped the ink...every movement was unhurried, and her mind gradually calmed down amidst the seemingly monotonous strokes and strokes.
Qinqi calligraphy and painting, calligraphy refers to calligraphy, which can calm the mind and nourish the spirit.
The rays of the setting sun came in from the window, casting a soft halo on her beautiful little face...
The eastern sky is getting darker a little bit...
The next day, that is, September 26th, Xiao Fei took Ling Xiao out early in the morning and arrived at Tayun Restaurant a quarter of an hour earlier.
The third princess was already waiting in the private seat on the second floor. She seemed to be sitting by the window in a leisurely manner, but her waist was habitually straight, and there was a hint of arrogance between her brows.
Her indifference was only maintained until the moment Xiao Fei entered the door. With the "squeak" sound of opening the door, old and new hatred surged into her heart like an angry wave, and the elegant mask on her face was about to burst...
There is ample time!
The third princess said to herself in her heart, she finally endured it reluctantly.
After taking a sip of the tea, she glanced at Xiao Fei with a half-smile, and said sarcastically: "I used to think that Miss Xiao was beautiful and noble, but she turned out to be someone who was just trying to catch fame. Hiding the filth!"
Xiao Fei was not angered by the three princesses. Her mother, Xiao Fang, did make a terrible mistake, and she paid a heavy price for this mistake. This is a fact. She is her mother's daughter, so she should do it for her mother. To clean up the mess, it is not only for herself, but also for the Zhennan Palace. The three generations of the Palace were bloody and should not be tarnished by the fault of the mother alone. That's why she came to the appointment of the three princesses and appeared here.
"Your Highness the Third Princess," Xiao Fei walked up to her, first saluted the Third Princess, and then sat down opposite the Third Princess, looking directly at her with cold eyes, "Your Highness must not have come to me just to say If you have something to say, please speak up.”
The third princess didn't expect Xiao Fei to react like this at all, she was choked up, and the veins on her forehead throbbed. This Xiao Fei is still so annoying, since someone has caught her, she should obediently bow down and beg for talent!
Since this bitch doesn't understand, I will teach her a good lesson myself!
The third princess stared at Xiao Fei fiercely, took a deep breath, and threatened sinisterly: "Miss Xiao, if you don't want your mother's shady things to be known to the whole of southern Xinjiang, you'd better be obedient." Be obedient, don't talk hard with me!"
Xiao Fei still looked at the third princess without blinking, noncommittal. To her, what the three princesses have said so far has nothing to say, no point, let alone express what she wants.
Seeing that Xiao Fei was speechless, the third princess thought that she finally knew how to be afraid, and felt disdainful in her heart.
She held up the teacup and took another sip of hot tea, feeling much more refreshed, and then asked: "Miss Xiao, your elder brother, Shizi Xiao, is going to fight soon, do you know where he is going to fight?" cross? The third princess stared at Xiao Fei expectantly.
This question is not difficult to answer. Xiao Fei shook her head honestly: "I don't know."
After all, Xiao Fei is a female family member in the inner house. In fact, the third princess didn't expect Xiao Fei to know, so she said arrogantly: "Go back and check! Aren't you on good terms with your sister-in-law? Try to find a way to test your sister-in-law , you can always ask!"
As she said that, the third princess narrowed her eyes, and said threateningly with cold eyes: "Miss Xiao, you'd better not test my patience. Once this matter gets out, how do you think people in the whole southern border will look at you? How will the Southern Palace treat your abandoned child?"
Don't talk about getting married, I'm afraid it's just a piece of white silk given to Xiao Fei to break the world's mouth!
To be honest, the third princess really wanted to see this scene, but unfortunately, as Bai Yi said, death is like a lamp going out, only keeping Xiao Fei alive can have greater value!
Xiao Fei glanced at the third princess coldly, stood up suddenly, and said calmly with no expression on her face: "If Your Highness the third princess has nothing else to do, then I will take my leave."
"..." The third princess naturally did not stay with Xiao Fei, after all Xiao Fei has stayed here for a long time, if the palace finds her whereabouts, it may ruin her good deed.
But-
Couldn't it be that he dismissed Xiao Fei condescendingly, and Xiao Fei acted in fear and humiliation
Why did she feel that the identities of the two had been switched
The initiative seemed to be in Xiao Fei's hands!
This Xiao Fei is still so disgusting!
In the wild thoughts of the third princess, Xiao Fei took Ling Xiao out of Tayun Restaurant, but her mind was not as calm as it seemed.
Ling Xiao was also the coachman, and he drove the carriage to the palace. In the regular life of the carriage, Xiao Fei tried her best to sort out her somewhat chaotic thoughts.
The third princess came to Nanjiang with Marquis Pingyang at the end of last year. It has been a full nine months now, but she waited until the day when she was married to Jili before mentioning the collusion between her mother Xiaofang and Baiyue. Why
In her opinion, the third princess is not a patient person. Since the other party thinks that "this matter" is a trump card, why didn't she use it to threaten herself early? After all, the Zhennan Palace has long turned against the emperor and the third princess...
Unless, the third princess just learned the news recently!
So, who told her
Xiao Fei frowned and thought about it, casually playing with a nine-link chain in her hand, cluck, cluck, cluck...
As far as she knew, and what her mother Xiaofang's family had done, only the Zhennan Prince's Mansion remained in Luoyue City. The father, elder brother, and elder sister-in-law all know that this matter is of great importance, and they will not and cannot leak this matter. As for the third bedroom of the Fang family, they have been dispatched to Zhangnan, where they are guarded... Besides, the third son of the Fang family Fang colluded with Baiyue, colluded with the enemy and treasoned the country, and was able to save the lives of the whole family. Zhennan Wang Nian was extra merciful for the sake of in-laws. If this matter was revealed, it would be fatal!
So, who else would know
Xiao Fei frowned, and the movements of her hands also paused for a moment.
Since they are not from Southern Border, then they can only be from Baiyue!
The third princess is Kui Lang's concubine, even if Kui Lang is dead, it is only natural for him to find the third princess under Baiyue's men...
Xiao Fei's brows were tightly furrowed, and a tangled expression appeared on her small face.
If it was the sister-in-law, the meeting with the third princess just now would surely reveal more things, and I would be far behind!
The carriage galloped away in Xiao Fei's thoughts, it was already the end of September, autumn was getting stronger, and the city was gradually dyed a little golden...
That is the golden color of autumn.
Golden leaves, golden chrysanthemums, golden rice... and golden sun.
On September 28th, the sun was rising and the temperature was the most suitable time.
There were already tens of thousands of troops on standby in the Luoyue City camp, and it was densely packed, with a cold aura, and there was no end in sight.
In the tent of the Prince of Zhennan, Xiao Yi once again put on the silver armor. The armor was cold and hard. Compared with the usual careless dandy, he seemed a little more vigorous and cold at this moment. .
But in Nangong Yue's eyes, Xiao Yi is still the same Xiao Yi, the boy who smiled mischievously and brightly at her.
Xiao Yi was about to go to war today, but there were brisk laughter echoing in his tent.
"Giggle..."
Since Xiao Xiaoyu was born, the number of times he has gone out can be counted. He was attracted by Xiao Yi's tent, and he was very excited. He pointed to his mother and walked around the tent, touched the hanging wall. He sat on Xiao Yi's handsome chair, climbed up the handsome table, and even left a mark of "here for a visit" in a corner of the tent.
After going around in a circle, the little guy was attracted by Xiao Yi again, his eyes lit up.
"Yeah!"
Xiao Xiaoyu stretched out a fleshy little hand from his mother's arms and tried to grab his father, smiling so hard that his eyes narrowed, as if he was saying, how did you become so shiny
Normally, Xiao Yi would have picked up the little guy, but he was leaving soon.
It's another few months...
Xiao Yi stretched out a finger and tapped Xiao Xiaoyu's forehead, "When I come back, I'm afraid the brat won't remember me."
Babies are the most forgetful. Xiao Yi still remembers a time when the grandfather of the Lin family and Han Qixia went out to collect medicine for half a month, this brat completely forgot about him. This heartless brat!
Nangong Yue was startled, and the faint feeling of parting that was originally hidden in her heart overflowed uncontrollably at this moment... Yes, when Ah Yi comes back, Brother Yu probably won't remember him.
Xiao Yi immediately felt that he had said the wrong thing, and was about to coax her, but Nangong Yue said: "A Yi, brother Yu will never forget you, I will draw a portrait of you when I go back, and let Yu See, bro, he won't forget... um."
He leaned over to hold her words in his mouth, breathing...
His Ah Yue is really more and more sweet talker.
Nangong Yue looked at his long eyelashes so close to her in a daze, and didn't react for a while.
"Yeah!" Little Xiao Yu, who was squeezed between his parents, waved his fist in protest.
Xiao Yi ignored the little guy, and rubbed his thin lips on Nangong Yue's cherry lips with nostalgia, then backed away, and then he stretched out his fingers angrily and tapped Xiao Yu's forehead lightly. , warning with a half-smile: "Stinky boy, you have to be obedient at home, otherwise, when I come back, I will see if your father doesn't take good care of you!"
"Yeah!" Xiao Xiaoyu giggled, as if he didn't know that his father was threatening him, but playing with him.
"Ah Yue, I'm leaving!"
Xiao Yi shook his head with a broken smile, and his eyes fell on Nangong Yue's small face again, staring at her deeply, with a bright smile, as if silently saying——
Ah Yue, wait for me to come back!
At this time, there was no need for words, Nangong Yue smiled back, grabbed the little guy's fleshy paws and waved lightly at Xiao Yi.
They will wait for his safe return at home!
She knew he would return triumphant.
Xiao Yi lifted his robe, turned around resolutely and walked outside the tent, and opened the curtain of the tent by himself...
The golden sunlight slanted in from the outside, and the silver armor on his body shone dazzlingly under the sunlight, making it almost impossible to look directly at.
Xiao Yi was about to stride forward when he heard an unbelievable milk voice from behind:
"Yeah! Dad..."
The little guy seemed to have lost his most beloved toy, his limp body writhed in Nangong Yue's arms and shouted.
There was silence in the tent, and this was the first time Xiao Xiaoyu called daddy!
