He Erlang, who hurried back home on a steed, never thought that such a thing would happen to him.
Yesterday, he was trained by Shangfeng, and was urged by Mrs. He to go home to celebrate his mother's birthday. He came out of Zuowuwei's barracks early in the morning with his horse, and He Erlang felt a suffocation in his heart. He ran the horse to the gate of the mansion and was about to tighten the reins when he saw a low-key and luxurious carriage galloping recklessly. Before the carriage came to a complete stop, a man jumped out of the carriage and bumped into his horse's belly.
After all, He Erlang stretched out his hand well, a fierce tiger bent down, stretched out his strong arms, and caught the man thrown out of the carriage.
Although he saved people like this, but because his right leg kicked hard on the horse's belly, the horse suffered from great pain, and immediately neighed wildly, and raised its front hoof to throw He Erlang off the horse's back.
He Erlang supported Princess Duanjia with both hands. Seeing that he was thrown off the horse, he had to twist his body vigorously and turn himself off from the horse's back. But in this way, the center of gravity could not be stable, and he was about to be crushed on Duanjia involuntarily. On the princess.
In an instant, He Erlang found that there was a delicate little girl between his arms. If he was really overwhelmed by a big man like him, he would not be overwhelmed.
With a flash of thought, He Erlang had already made a decision. He cleverly turned his side slightly, facing the direction of the carriage with his broad back, and as soon as he stretched his strong arms, Princess Duanjia was pulled into his arms.
Just when Princess Duanjia was about to cry out in horror, she heard a muffled sound of flesh hitting the side of the carriage.
In the end, He Erlang's broad back hit the ground first, and Princess Duanjia was protected in his arms, but his clothes and hair were a little messy.
He Erlang had a dull pain in his back, but he just frowned slightly, and quickly let go of the hands holding Princess Duanjia, and said in his deep and hoarse voice: "Miss, are you okay? hurt?"
It wasn't until hearing He Erlang's concerned voice that Princess Duanjia completely came back to her senses. She was a little dazed for a moment, forgot to move or speak, and just looked at the strong man below her in a daze. .
"Princess, princess! How are you!" Before Princess Duanjia came back to her senses, the group of people who served her all ran to her with pale faces.
Seeing that the princess was lying on top of a man in a daze, the eldest servant girl couldn't see her face, so she hurried over to help Princess Duanjia up.
"Princess, is there any injury?"
Princess Duanjia subconsciously shook her head, and then let Jinxiu and another maid arrange her dress, but she couldn't help but look at the man who had just saved him.
He Changjue was also slightly surprised when he heard the anxious shouting of the servants. He didn't expect that the person he saved was a princess.
Princess Duanjia was helped up by the servants, and He Changjue also got up and straightened his sleeves.
He couldn't tell when he was lying on the ground, but as soon as he stood up, he was taller than the women around him. He was tall and strong, and he was wearing the guard uniform of Zuo Wuwei and Longwei, which further highlighted He Erlang's magnanimity. Narrow shoulders and waist.
His skin is slightly dark, and although his facial features are not as refined as He Changdi's, he is full of fortitude, which gives people a sense of security at first glance.
When He Changjue saw Princess Duanjia looking up at him, he slightly looked away, bowed to Princess Duanjia, and apologized: "I am Zuo Wuwei, Longwei He Changjue, I was rude in front of Princess Duanjia, it was just a matter of time Forced, I hope the princess will not blame me."
Princess Duanjia stared at him and didn't speak, but she already knew the identity of He Changjue in her heart. Seeing him as a tall and strong man who was slightly bent over and lowered his eyebrows, he dared not look at her. I don't know why Duanjia County The master didn't complain about He Changjue at all in his heart, but instead had a bad intention to see He Changjue embarrassed.
He Changjue lowered his head for a moment and didn't hear the princess opposite, so he raised his eyes slightly to look at Princess Duanjia. When he found the sly look in Princess Duanjia's eyes, He Changjue was taken aback and suddenly felt uncomfortable. stand up.
Jinxiu really couldn't stand it anymore, besides it was not good for them to stand in front of the gate of Uncle Jing'an's mansion like this, Mrs Jing'an's birthday is today, there will definitely be guests coming later.
Princess Duanjia put away the other expressions in her eyes, raised her head deliberately and said: "Then the princess will forgive your offense this time, and I won't make an exception."
He Changjue breathed a sigh of relief when he heard her say that, "Thank you Princess."
Princess Duanjia was supported by the servants into Jing'an Bo's mansion, and He Changjue followed not far behind. Originally, Princess Duanjia thought he would send herself to the flower hall in the front yard, but who knew that He Erlang entered Jing'an Bo Fu walked around Zhaobi and left quickly.
As soon as Princess Duanjia turned around, she could only see the back of him, tall and strong, leaving in a hurry.
Princess Duanjia couldn't help biting her lips, and then went to Songtao Garden to find Chu Lian.
Chu Lian knew that Princess Duanjia would come early today, and he was making chicken porridge for her in the small kitchen at this time!
He also ordered Xiyan to make more crystal buns, Princess Duanjia liked this, then left the small kitchen and went back to the bedroom to change clothes.
Just after changing clothes, I heard the sound of the door of Songtao Garden.
As soon as Princess Duanjia came, she told Chu Lian what had just happened at the door, and Chu Lian was in a cold sweat, thinking that fortunately, the second brother returned to the house, otherwise, what would happen if Princess Duanjia really fell? it is good.
Ask Wenqing Wenlan to go in and wash his hands and face and change his clothes before the two of them sit down and have breakfast together.
Princess Duanjia pouted, "Chu Liu, I didn't see you cooking for me."
Chu Lian rolled his eyes speechlessly, "Princess, you just need to eat what you have, why do you have to watch me make it yourself, do you want to learn? It's easy to learn, and I'll write a few recipes for you later. , let the cook in Wei Wang’s mansion teach you.”
Princess Duanjia shook her head quickly, "I don't want to learn, it's so troublesome, if I want to eat, I can just ask you, anyway, whenever I come, Chu Liu, you will make it for me, won't you?"
"Then why do you still watch me cook?"
"I'm curious, I want to see how these delicacies can be made step by step from your hands."
Chu Lian's forehead was black, and he was really speechless about Princess Duanjia's strange hobby.
Princess Duanjia suddenly stretched out her chopsticks and ordered the "Crystal Buns" and "Crystal Dumplings" in front of her, "Chu Liu, you haven't made this for He Sanlang yet, have you?"
Chu Lian didn't understand why Princess Duanjia asked this again, and shook her head honestly.
Strictly speaking, He Changdi seems to have only eaten Chaoshou and scallion pancakes made by her? Uh... count those beef jerky.
Thinking about it this way, not much.
"Hahaha..." Princess Duanjia suddenly laughed while holding her stomach.
Chu Lian knocked on the jade bowl in front of her, "Master, do you still want to eat? If you don't, I'll ask the maids to withdraw."
Princess Duanjia hurriedly reached out to cover the bowl of chicken porridge in front of her, and shook her head repeatedly, "Don't withdraw, I haven't eaten a few mouthfuls yet! Chu Liu, I suddenly feel that He Sanlang is actually quite pitiful, hahaha! So Delicious steamed stuffed bun, he has never tasted it."
Chu Lian looked helplessly at Princess Duanjia, she was clearly taking pleasure in other's misfortune, who would laugh like this if she had sympathy.
After Princess Duanjia ate her belly full, the maids took the food off the table and served two glasses of honey water.
Princess Duanjia held a waxy white porcelain cup in both hands, "Chu Liu, Qiuwei's list is out. Can you guess who the top three are?"
Chu Lian froze. She didn't expect that the list would be released at this time. When she thought that Xiao Bojian in the original book was the member of Qiu Wei this time, Chu Lian felt bad.
She answered absent-mindedly, "From the Imperial College?"
Princess Duanjia didn't care about Chu Lian's sudden gloomy mood for a while, and nodded, "Yes, except for the second place, the first and third places are all from the Imperial Academy, especially the famous Huiyuan is Xiao Bojian from the Imperial Academy. Said Speaking of this person, you should also know that this person is worshiped under your grandfather's name and has been living in the British government."
Chu Lian didn't listen to what Princess Duanjia said later. After hearing that Xiao Bojian was indeed the number one, her heart trembled. Thinking of the plot behind the original book, even though she had always had an optimistic personality Chu Lian couldn't help but frowned slightly.
"Chu Liu, Chu Liu, what's wrong with you, did you hear me?"
Chu Lian was brought back to his senses by Princess Duanjia, "Ah? What did the princess say?"
Princess Duanjia carefully looked at Chu Lian, "Chu Liu, what's wrong with you, you're absent-minded."
"It's okay, it may be that there are too many things in the past two days, and the spirit is not very good."
Princess Duanjia saw that Chu Lian didn't want to talk about it, so she had to repeat what she asked just now, "What gift did you prepare for Madam Jing'an? When I came to Songtao Garden just now, I heard a few girls in your house chewing on their ears. My son, said that the congratulatory gift from your sister-in-law is a very rare century-old ginseng! He Sanlang is not at the house, so you can't be compared."
"What's the comparison?"
"No, I don't think your sister-in-law likes it. Seeing how delicate and soft you are, you must be angry with your sister-in-law in the house on weekdays. If it is really not possible, I will send someone back to the palace to get a two-hundred-year-old Here come the red ginseng."
Xi Yan listened to the corners of her eyes twitching, and secretly sighed to herself that she would not be angry with her third grandmother's temper. If others dared to give her anger, she would return it on the spot.
"No, I have all the congratulatory gifts ready."
Speaking of this, Chu Lian asked Xi Yan to go inside and get a jewelry box out and hand it to Princess Duanjia.
"This set of hair noodles is for the princess. The princess helped me to bring it back. It is the same as the gift I gave to my mother. It is a pearl head mask, but the regulations are different and the materials are also different, but I personally drew the pattern and sent it to Jinshi. Xuan asked the master to do it."
Princess Duanjia opened the box and saw that the pearl jewelry inside was elegant, novel and exquisite, even the styles in the palace could not be compared, so she said bitterly: "Chu Liu, in your heart, I am not as high as my concubine mother. ?"
Chu Lian couldn't laugh or cry, so she had to take out another small box, "Hey, this is for the princess. The pink pearl bracelet is also a style I drew. I have the same one as you."
Princess Duanjia became happy after seeing the bracelet, and immediately put it on her slender wrist, and deliberately shook her wrist to show off in front of Chu Lian.
In fact, Chu Lian has no other meaning in doing this, she just thinks that every time she goes to Wei Wangfu, Wei Wangfei will give her something, even if Wei Wangfei is an elder, it is not good for her to accept it all the time, and she always wants to do something in return. It was too late to take out this set of masks today.
Princess Wei treated her very well, she could feel it, the way she often looked at her was the same as looking at Princess Duanjia.
