The atmosphere between the two was a bit ambiguous, and facing Nan Xuanjue's handsome face so close, Ji Yueqin's heart suddenly quickened for some reason. She suddenly thought that if the two of them were found to be hugging each other in messy clothes, their reputations would be ruined.
What's more, Nan Xuanjue was the assassin who was tracked down in the palace last night. If he found him in his house, it would be even more unclear.
Nan Xuanjue was also aware of the seriousness of the matter. Besides, she couldn't be seen by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in her current state. If the queen finds out about this, I am afraid that the future plan will be even more difficult to carry out. Not to mention, the situation of myself and Ji Yueqin will only become more dangerous.
The two had their own concerns, and the atmosphere suddenly changed from ambiguous to a rigid state.
"County Lord, can the servants enter the house?" Aunt Xiuzhu knocked on the door lightly.
Ji Yueqin's thoughts were pulled back to reality by Aunt Xiuzhu's voice, so she asked Aunt Xiuzhu to come in.
Aunt Embroidered Bamboo also knew that the Crown Prince had come to Qianxi Palace, so she acted more cautiously. She opened the door gently, and quickly entered the house when she saw no one around.
She locked the door, and said to Ji Yueqin anxiously: "County Lord, the Crown Prince has come down. Huaizhu happened to meet His Royal Highness, and said that the County Lord had not got up yet, and now the Crown Prince went down to the main hall to talk to the Empress Dowager. ."
Ji Yueqin nodded, indicating that she knew, then looked at Nan Xuanjue aside, "Three princes, what are you going to do next?"
Nan Xuanjue raised her head and looked at Ji Yueqin's clear eyes, and said warmly, "You don't need to worry about me, now you go to wash up and accompany the prince and the empress dowager. I will take care of the rest."
Ji Yueqin responded and asked Aunt Xiuzhu and her to go to the dressing table to get dressed up.
Nan Xuanjue sat on the bed, holding a brocade handkerchief tightly in his hand, his eyes softened for a moment, and then returned to his usual coldness. There are some things that he can't decide, at least, not now.
Ji Yueqin sat on the chair in a trance, a little uneasy. Although she didn't know what Nan Xuanjue was going to do, at least she knew a little about this man after what happened last night.
Her thoughts suddenly came back to that night. She still remembered him who played sadly on the moonlit night, his desolate and lonely figure, and the infinite sadness in his eyes, which touched her deeply. .
For a moment, her heart emptied with his grief. He was like an exiled immortal, and the lonely grief was as if he did not belong to this place. She herself is not like this. When she went to Dayu, she never forgot the purpose of her trip.
Just last night, he was dressed in black, and there was another look in his eyes, but she still recognized him at a glance. It's not just the quiet fragrance of magnolia on him, but more of that temperament that is similar to her own. She recognized him at a glance. I'm afraid that lonely people have that mutual attraction in their hearts.
"The county master? The county master?" Aunt Xiuzhu softly called out to Ji Yueqin, looking at her worriedly.
Ji Yueqin came back to her senses, restrained her inexplicable emotions just now, pulled out a smile and said to Aunt Xiuzhu, "Ah
Aunt Xiuzhu sighed, put her hand on Ji Yueqin's shoulder, kneaded lightly, and looked at Ji Yueqin from the bronze mirror with some sadness, "Last night was the little princess who suffered the slaves, slaves. You shouldn't listen to the county lord's words and go to rest, leaving the little county lord alone to take care of His Royal Highness the Third Prince."
Ji Yueqin raised her hand and patted Aunt Xiuzhu's hand, which was rubbing her shoulder, and said warmly, "I know Aunt Xiuzhu is the best for Yueqin, but I just thought that Aunt Xiuzhu was tired after a long day. Let you go to Haosheng for a break."
Aunt Xiuzhu looked at Ji Yueqin pityingly, and wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Ji Yueqin, "I said that my most ingenious Aunt Xiuzhu will comb my hair today, Yueqin still Really looking forward to it.”
Xiuzhu also understood that the county master didn't want to worry about her too much, and she didn't plan to continue talking. Seeing Ji Yueqin asking herself like this, she smiled mysteriously and said: "The little county master, guess what, today's slave servant. What kind of hair are you going to give the princess?"
Ji Yueqin looked thoughtful and said: "Well? Then let me guess. Aunt Xiuzhu will comb my boy's bun tonight? A down bun? Or Chaoyun into a fragrant bun?"
Xiuzhu smiled and shook his head, "Little County Master Bingxue is smart, how come she doesn't know what kind of bun the slaves are going to wear for the County Master, I think the little Princess is deliberately making the slaves happy this time!"
Ji Yueqin made a sudden realization: "Since what aunt said is not true, then it is a flying fairy bun."
Xiuzhu looked at Ji Yueqin's funny appearance, and smiled brightly, "The county master is going to dance a song tonight, and it's the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet. Naturally, he is going to wear a flying bun."
Aunt Embroidered Bamboo's hand did not stop, gently combing Ji Yueqin's hair with a comb.
When Embroidered Bamboo was combing Ji Yueqin's loose blue silk, he suddenly found that the comb in his hand was different from the one he used on weekdays, so he wondered: "County Master, where did this comb come from? How come this slave has never seen it before? "
Ji Yueqin glanced at the comb handed over by Xiuzhu. She thought about it and said lightly, "Oh, this comb was given to me by Brother Yu last time."
The more Xiuzhu listened, the more she felt that something was wrong. She frowned and said, "This... little princess, in Dayu, women are not allowed to accept gifts from men at will." Xiuzhu said in a low voice, for fear that the third prince would hear it. It's not good if you misunderstand something.
Ji Yueqin looked at Xiuzhu suspiciously, "In Daliang, men and women will give gifts to each other, it's nothing."
It's not easy for Xiuzhu to tell Ji Yueqin too clearly, she just said to Ji Yueqin in a low voice: "In short, in the future, the little princess should not accept gifts from men casually, this comb will be a good gift for the little princess. Well, this matter must not be brought up to anyone else."
Seeing Aunt Xiuzhu's serious appearance, Ji Yueqin nodded in response.
Seeing that the county master listened to his own words, Xiuzhu was relieved. If the news of His Royal Highness sending the little county master's comb spreads out, I am afraid that the reputation of the county master will not be guaranteed in the future, and it will be passed on privately between the county master and the prince. Your Royal Highness gave and received privately. What's more, the county owner doesn't understand the meaning of sending combs. If the county owner has no intention of His Royal Highness, it is really inappropriate.
And judging from what happened last night, the little princess was inexplicably kind to His Royal Highness the Third Prince, and even His Royal Highness the Third Prince even saw the body of the County Lord. However, the county master didn't seem to have any reaction, and he didn't plan to pursue it for a long time, and he did his best to detoxify and heal the wounds of His Royal Highness the Third Prince.
