Zhu Yi was stunned, Xie Ying actually accepted her overture

In fact, she had no hope, and she didn't want Xie Ying to respond, she just wanted to explain something to Concubine Tong. But he didn't dare to say to Xie Ying: You should continue to reject me.

Zhu Yi didn't say anything, but her confused eyes and frowned eyebrows had already revealed what she was thinking. Xie Ying smiled coldly, and was about to speak when Zhu Dai's voice sounded from the outer hall—"Cousin!"

Unexpectedly, Zhu Yi didn't expect that Zhu Dai would come, so she quickly pushed away the man in front of her, and hid behind the only carved nanmu screen with eight immortals in the room where people could hide.

She thought, wait for Xie Ying to send Zhu Dai away before going out, but unexpectedly, Xie Ying also followed.

Zhu Yi opened his mouth slightly in surprise, and asked him with his eyes: What are you doing here? If Zhu Dai found out, it would be impossible to explain it clearly.

Xie Ying smiled, he pushed her in, and replied silently: "I want to hide too."

Outside is Xie Ying's maid, Tao Fan, who is talking: "Princess, the prince is gone, the princess might as well come back another day."

Zhu Dai said: "Get out of the way, I'll go in and have a look!"

Fortunately, they were blocked by the pottery fan for a while, and when Zhu Dai entered the room, both of them hid themselves.

Zhu Dai pursed her lips: "Why does my cousin always run out?" She walked to Xie Ying's desk and started flipping through the books he had read.

Compared with Zhu Yi's tense face, Xie Ying lazily leaned his back against the wall, so relaxed that Zhu Yi wondered if he really needed to hide

Today Zhu Dai stayed a little longer than usual, but with the pottery fan at her side, Zhu Dai would not run around the room to see if Xie Ying was there.

As soon as Xie Ying turned her head, she could see Zhu Yi in her line of sight, so she wanted to find something to do.

Zhu Yi watched Xie Ying approaching him with wide eyes, and immediately looked away. She quickly bit her lower lip, because Xie Ying was stroking the hair on her forehead, and her fingertips, which were used to holding swords, were slightly rough. When they brushed against Zhu Yi's delicate skin, Zhu Yi's whole body was numb.

Zhu Yi felt that Xie Ying seemed to like the circle of hair on her forehead, and kept rubbing it with her fingers. Zhu Yi didn't dare to move, for fear that Zhu Dai outside would find out.

She thought this was going too far, but at the next moment her shoulders were controlled by someone, Xie Ying leaned down, as if wanting to kiss her, the unique fragrance of bluegrass and hot body temperature made Zhu Yi unable to breathe normally. How dare Xie Ying be so bold? Zhu Yi finally couldn't bear to push him.

She did come to show her favor, but she never thought that he would treat her lightly.

Just because she was worried about Zhu Dai, Zhu Yi didn't dare to move too much. She had already scolded Xie Ying bloody in her heart.

Zhu Dai finally decided to leave, she knew that sometimes Xie Ying would go out for a whole day. She ordered Tao Fan: "I'll go back first, when my cousin comes back, you tell him not to go out tomorrow morning, I want my cousin to take me to ride a horse tomorrow!"

Tao Fan hurriedly agreed.

At the same time as Zhu Dai left, her warm breath pressed against Zhu Yi's forehead. Zhu Yi couldn't shake him at all, so she could only bear it, but the kiss she thought didn't fall.

A man's chuckle came from above his head, and Xie Ying's voice was low and sweet: "Princess, there is a small red mole on your scalp."

Zhu Yi was taken aback, only then did he realize that he had been tricked.

Zhu Dai had already left, so she didn't need to hold back anymore, she tried her best to push him in anger, but she sent herself into his arms instead. Xie Ying pinched Zhu Yi's chin with her slender and strong fingers, forcing her to look up.

Xie Ying looked at Zhu Yi. Her facial features were already soft, and the velvety forehead hair made her look even softer. Even though she was dazzling, she didn't feel unattainable. It made people want to protect and bully her at the same time.

Xie Ying let go of her hand and reached into Zhu Yi's left ear. Zhu Yi then touched his earlobe, it was naked.

In Xie Ying's opened palm, there was a small and exquisite earring with pale gold curled lotus leaves inlaid with powder seal beads. Zhu Yi immediately wanted to snatch it back, but he clenched his fist. Zhu Yi looked up at Xie Ying, and lost his mind for a moment because of the smile in his eyes.

"I took the earring away, and the princess kept her own earring."

Zhu Yi hummed lightly, her face was calm, but her heart was full of emotions. What does Xie Ying's actions today mean? Do you like her a little too? But last time, this man turned his face like turning over a book, and he turned around and left with a terribly indifferent look.

She immediately said: "My lord, I'm going back."

"Okay." Xie Ying didn't keep Zhu Yi any longer, he knew that he frightened her because he couldn't hold back today, and now Zhu Yi ran away in a hurry. Xie Ying didn't even send Zhu Yi out.

Mianfeng followed Zhu Yi with her head down, raising her eyes from time to time to look at her back, her thoughts wandering.

As Zhu Yi's most trusted court lady, she naturally knew that the princess had a crush on Prince Wei Ning's son. At that time, when the son left Beijing, she had never seen her princess cry like that, and her eyelids were swollen into walnuts the next day. At that time, she hoped that this son would really never show up again.

Unexpectedly, today the princess went into the other party's room alone. Even if Zhu Yi pursued Xie Ying in the past, the two met outside, and she followed them not too far away. Men are different from women. The princess used to look at the prince and be happy all day long, but what about the prince? Mianfeng was so worried that he didn't know what to do, but he couldn't stop Zhu Yi.

Back at Yuewang Pavilion, Zhu Yi asked people to prepare pens and inks, and she would practice calligraphy when her mind was troubled.

What she was most worried about was not herself, but Zhu Xiuli. Concubine Tong has shown her ambitions in front of her, but she doesn't think it's a good thing to involve her young seventh brother in the struggle for unification. Zhu Xiuli didn't understand anything.

Zhu Yi's writing speed is very fast, and the ink and color are continuous on the paper. What emerges is not the most popular hairpin lowercase among the boudoir daughters, but the carefully formed, round and vigorous Yanzi. Lost Xiuwan, more Weili.

This is because both the Empress Dowager and the Emperor admired Yan Gong's calligraphy. In order to please the elders, she practiced hard and tirelessly, so she has good calligraphy that is also praised by the Empress Dowager today. Relying on this handwriting, Zhu Yi would take the task of copying the scriptures for the Empress Dowager from time to time, and the emperor would occasionally ask her to copy the documents, in order to seek more protection for himself.

Zhu Yi didn't stop writing until noon, and after taking a nap, someone from the Crown Princess sent a message to invite Zhu Yi to come over. It is said that the new clothing material was sent by the Neiwei Dyeing Bureau, and it is time to buy new clothes for the princesses this winter. The materials will be sent to the princess, and the princesses will be asked to choose the color and style they like.

This is a happy thing, what girl does not like beautiful new clothes.

The prince and his wife lived in Fangdeju, and Zhu Yi went to Zhu Chuo's side to call her.

The Fangde residence is considered grand and grand among the buildings of the palace. The main hall specially moved a long case to lay out brocades. Concubine's is more lively and agile.

Zhu Dai and Zhu Jing had arrived first, and they were looking through the new clothes styles in the picture book produced by the needlework bureau.

"Sister-in-law." Zhu Yi and Zhu Chuo greeted the princess.

The princess greeted her with a smile: "Two sisters, come and sit down." Then she ordered the maid: "Bring kumquat ice cream to the princess to relieve the heat."

The Crown Princess Ruan Lanxun is the successor of the Crown Prince, born in the Yongnan Palace, her appearance is only delicate compared to the other princesses, but her temperament is as gentle as orchid, and her clothes are plain but not light, making people look very comfortable.

The late former princess was jealous, but Ruan Lanxun had a gentle temperament. She married into the royal family for more than two years, and treated the little grandson left behind by the former princess kindly. Later, she didn't cry when she had a miscarriage, and managed the East Palace in an orderly manner. The prince was willing to show her face, and the queen was even more satisfied with her daughter-in-law, and even entrusted her to take care of some palace affairs.

Zhu Jing stood up and called her sister. Zhu Dai didn't even raise her head, and the emperor wasn't there, so who would she show as a good sister

After that night, Zhu Yi and Zhu Jing saw each other for the first time.

Zhu Yi originally thought that Xie Ying would reject her, so she didn't take Zhu Jing seriously. But seeing her at this moment, Zhu Yi remembered that time behind the rockery... Did Xie Ying treat Zhu Jing the same way she treated her in the morning

Seeing Zhu Yi staring at her, Zhu Jing gave Zhu Yi a gentle smile. Zhu Yi called Fifth Sister and looked away.

Zhu Dai likes to wear pink and light purple the most. Zhu Chuo likes all kinds of reds, Feihong, Qianhong, Yinhong, Tanghong, but he doesn't like pink. Zhu Jing likes green the most, such as moxa green, water green, primrose green, and cattail green. Zhu Yi had no particular preference, so he walked around the long case to have a look.

Zhu Yi was holding a corner of light-yellow Xianghe satin and looking at it, Zhu Chuo pulled up a piece of orange-pink brocade in front of her, and said happily: "Sir, you should wear some of this color! It's so beautiful. "

Zhu Dai immediately stretched her face, and she looked like she had taken over all the pink colors, and walked over to grab the material in Zhu Chuo's hand without saying a word.

Zhu Chuo was taken aback, then glanced at her: "What are you doing?" Zhu Chuo was not afraid of Zhu Dai, although the empress held power, but there was always the word filial piety on her head, Zhu Chuo's natal family was the empress dowager's natal family .

"The younger sisters are all here." The prince suddenly stepped in. Zhu Chuo and Zhu Dai stared at each other and let go.

The prince had been watching outside for a while, starting from when Zhu Chuo pulled Fu Guangjin onto Zhu Yi. It is true that Zhu Yi has never worn such a delicate color, and it is indeed beautiful. Seeing Zhu Dai attack Zhu Yi, the prince originally wanted to watch it. He had an unknown dark mind in his heart. He liked to see panic and even fear appear on Zhu Yi's face, but he still I want to give her the impression of a good brother.

The prince smiled silently, wanting to see Zhu Yi panicked, he would have plenty of opportunities in the future.

Several princesses came to call the emperor brother.

When the prince came, he had no intention of leaving. He sat on a six-square chair and asked the maid to serve tea. The prince pretended to talk to the princess, but his eyes drifted to the princess.
