In Rongan Palace, the concubine was introducing the flowers and trees she had planted over the years to Rouye, but Rouye was a little absent-minded.
"You have all left me, and you have also felt a little lonely these years. Later, someone sent me a pot of flowers I had never seen before. While taking care of the pot of flowers, I suddenly became interested in growing flowers."
The concubine said softly. When she turned around, she saw Rouye looking outside frequently.
The concubine said: "Why, are you waiting for someone?"
"Ah?" Rouye came back to her senses and said quickly: "No...I'm not waiting for anyone!"
"Then what are you doing looking outside?"
"No..." Rouye lowered her head and said sheepishly: "I just suddenly remembered the scene when I went to the Royal Garden to play when I was a child. I wonder if the Royal Garden has changed now... I'm a little curious..."
"That's it!" The concubine smiled and said, "There is still half an hour before lunch, so you should go and take a look first."
"Is that okay?" Rouye's eyes were filled with stars.
"Silly boy, if there's anything you can't do, go ahead!"
"Then Ye'er will go first, thank you, Princess Toffee!" Rouye saluted happily and ran out.
The concubine looked at her back, smiled and shook her head.
"Go back and rest for a while." The concubine supported the palace maid's arm and returned to the apse.
Gospel had arranged the noon banquet. When he came back, he found that the courtyard was very quiet. After asking about the situation, he entered the back hall.
The concubine was lying on the couch, resting her head on one arm, taking a nap.
Gospel asked all the maids in the room to go out, and he walked over and gently beat the concubine's legs.
After a while, the concubine still didn't open her eyes but suddenly said: "You are back!"
"Yes, the slaves and maids have made arrangements. Don't worry, my queen."
"Well, I always feel at ease when you do things."
Gospel gently twitched the corners of his lips and said, "Since your Majesty is relieved, what else do you have to worry about?"
The concubine suddenly smiled: "You are the only one who can detect my thoughts..."
The gospel said: "But what is wrong with Princess Rouye?"
The concubine took a deep breath and said, "There's nothing wrong...it's just," she slowly opened her eyes, her tone a little regretful, "Grow up!"
The gospel was stunned for a moment, and then he said pertinently: "Seven or eight years have passed, and you are still living at your uncle's house. You will eventually grow up!"
The concubine thought for a while and said softly: "That's right!"
"You don't have to mind, no matter in the past or now, she is the only one asking for your favor." Gospel lowered his voice and said.
After all, the former Princess Rouye was also fostered by the concubine. Thanks to the concubine treating her as his own, the emperor was willing to give her the title of princess. Otherwise, how could she, a little orphan, get a fief!
Now even if her wings have hardened and she has her own little thoughts, she still wants to beg the concubine. It doesn’t take much thinking to know that the only thing she wants now is a marriage. In this matter, the concubine is still
Has a great say.
In fact, the gospel feels that the concubine's emotion is somewhat sad. If the girl had been raised by the concubine, she would definitely not be separated from the concubine like this. With the concubine's personality, since she has raised her, she will definitely
Seek a good future for her, as long as she treats the concubine sincerely.
In that case, she wouldn't have to be careful in front of the concubine, which would make the concubine angry and feel like she was being used.
"That's all. As long as your nature remains unchanged, just help her if you can."
Rouye came to the Royal Garden and had already found out that Rong Che had gone to the East Palace, so she chose a place and wandered around.
When Rong Che came to the East Palace, the prince received the news and almost ran all the way to the door to greet him.
"Little Emperor Uncle!" The prince grinned widely, "Just now they said it was Little Emperor Uncle who came. I thought they were lying to me, and they wanted to say they were brave enough. I didn't expect it was really you, Little Emperor Uncle.
!”
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty the Crown Prince!" Although Rong Che didn't take notice of the Crown Prince's yelling, he still saluted stiffly.
"Okay, okay, little uncle, come in quickly! You are a rare and distinguished guest!" The prince came over and tried to pull Rong Che's arm, but he calmly dodged it, without any embarrassment, and changed the pull to invite, saying
: "Uncle Xiao Huang, please come in!"
Rong Che hesitated for a moment, had he come to the wrong place?!
The eunuch walking behind Rong Che quickly conveyed the concubine's invitation and left.
The prince said happily: "Rouye has returned to the palace? Has she recovered from her illness?"
"Already fine."
"Oh, that girl is really..." The prince curled his lips with some disdain.
He had long known that that girl loved to cling to the little emperor uncle. She used to be like a follower, always following behind them, which was very annoying.
"Prince, she is your aunt!" The implication is that even though she is young, she is older than her. I am afraid it is not appropriate for your prince to call your aunt "that girl", even though you have called her that way since you were a child.
"Little Emperor Uncle!" The prince said with a bitter face: "You are my little Emperor Uncle, that's all. You are still one year older than me, but that girl is younger than me, and she is actually my aunt..."
Rong Che shook his head. The prince didn't even know what he was worrying about all day long. It was such a mess.
"Let's go to the concubine's place at noon. Don't be rude." Rong Che told the prince,
"I understand, little uncle." The prince said sadly, "I am not stupid!"
The two of them stayed in the East Palace for a while. The prince personally led Rong Che around the various palaces and said, "Actually, the East Palace is not big, and it is far inferior to your palace, little uncle."
"Also, no matter how big the palace's courtyard is, can it be so big that it can cross the country?"
The prince moved the corners of his mouth and begged for mercy: "Okay, please forgive me for saying something wrong, okay?"
Rong Che sighed helplessly, this prince always leaves people speechless.
"It's almost time, we can't ask the concubine to wait for us... Why don't we go to Rongan Palace now?" the prince asked.
Rong Che immediately stood up and walked away.
The Imperial Garden is the only way to go to Rong'an Palace. After walking a few steps, the prince saw Rouye waiting in the pavilion.
The prince really didn't like her, so he quickly said: "Uncle, I don't want to call her aunt earlier. I'll take a detour and see you later!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he had already disappeared into the flower tree.
Rong Che looked at the direction in which he disappeared, and then at the only way forward. He didn't react for a moment, but Rouye had already noticed him, and just like the last time on the boat, she waved the handkerchief at him.
"Brother Rong Che!" Rou Ye shouted excitedly, just like on the canal that day.
Rong Che walked over and asked, "Why don't you wait at the concubine's place?"
"Ye'er is here specifically to wait for you."
"Why is this?"
"Ye'er has a few words that he wants to talk to brother Rong Che alone, but he's afraid that he won't have time after a while,"
"you say."
Rou Ye bit her lower lip and said: "Brother Rong Che has been engaged for many years, and the seventh lady of the Yan family has been away from the capital, which you have never imagined. Now that she is finally back, Ye'er is very happy for brother Rong Che."
"Yeah." When it came to Yan Qingzheng, Rong Che became a little less calm.
"Actually..." Rouye started hesitantly.
"You have something to say, but it doesn't hurt to talk about it."
"Brother Rong Che, you and I have grown up together. You should also know that I have not had any friends since I returned to Chengyang for so many years. I was detained at home by my uncle and have no friends. I don't plan to go back to Beijing this time.
Without her mother and grandfather there, it is no longer Xiao Ye'er's home."
The words sounded sad, and Rong Che thought of her hardships in those years, so he softened his tone and said, "We have a relationship from childhood, so just say it."
Rouye stood up and glanced in one direction, and saw a figure. She calculated the time, quickly turned around and directed Rong Che's back to that direction, and then said: "In Xiaoye'er's heart, brother Rong Che is Xiaoye."
Er's biological brother, so in fact, Xiaoye'er is looking forward to getting along well with... and brother Rong Che's future princess, and hopes that my sister-in-law can get closer to me..."
When Rong Che heard her mention the terms "future princess" and "sister-in-law", his heart was already flying and his face couldn't help but relax.
Seeing this, Rouye was a little surprised, a little unwilling, and her breathing stopped for a moment.
"You are of similar age, so you should get along well."
"But..." Rouye glanced out of the corner of her eyes and said in a longer voice: "Why does Xiaoyeer feel that Miss Yan Qi is not very willing to pay attention to me...brother Rong Che," she flattened her mouth, looking pitiful, and raised her hands.
He gently pulled Rong Che's sleeve, shook it slightly, and said coquettishly: "You must speak a good word for me and tell Miss Yan Qi that Xiao Ye'er is a very good child and will not compete with her for favor. Xiao Ye'er just wants to
Someone loves you!"
Rong Che didn't notice for a moment and nodded.
At this time, he turned around and saw the figure of the woman he had longed for appearing on a small road.
Although she stood a little far away, Rong Che felt that as long as she stood, she would have the most beautiful scenery in the world.
He smiled at her and said to Rouye: "She's here, I'll go and greet her."
He quickly walked down the pavilion and walked towards Yan Qing with a smile on his face.
Behind him, Princess Rouye showed an innocent smile.
I walked up even if I took a step slowly.
The smile on Yan Qingzheng's face slowly dissipated. It bloomed the moment she first saw him, and now it gradually fades away, but only for a moment.
It has to be said that Princess Rouye has left the palace for many years and still keeps the structure of the imperial garden in mind. Today, seven or eight years later, when she entered the palace for the first time, she had already chosen the most suitable location according to her own needs.
Rong Che came out of the East Palace and passed through the Imperial Garden to Rongan Hall. This small pavilion on the only way was also the only way for the female family members coming in from outside the palace to go to Rongan Hall!
So she blocked Rong Che here. The moment she saw Yan Qingzheng, she said what she had planned. She was also sure of Rong Che's reaction and Yan Qingzheng could clearly see what she was talking about.
Rong Che's coquettish and intimate look.
Sure enough, as she expected, Yan Qing first noticed Rong Che's figure with his back to her, immediately noticed the situation here, and then saw that scene. No matter how clumsy she was, she should have been able to see that the two of them were
People only see ambiguity.
Seeing Rong Che coming towards him with an expression that couldn't hide his tenderness, Yan Qingzheng felt a little shaken in his heart.
