"My princess needs an outsider to intercede?" Fu Yunqi put the water cup on the table and sprinkled some water. Yun Danfeng smiled softly and said, "You are so sentimental."
Tingfeng and Baitao lowered their eyes consciously, but they were wondering why Fang Yanru was so stupid and dared to stare directly at their prince.
Perhaps feeling that his tone was too harsh, Fu Yunchi cleared his throat and changed his tone.
"Do you really think that I don't know what happened between you and Miaomiao?" He raised his eyes and said calmly, "I have never doubted her, so in my opinion, your worries are just pretentious."
Fang Yanru sat with her back straight, her hands hanging down on her thighs. There was obvious hesitation in her eyebrows, and there was some unwillingness to test: "She and I...we have grown up together since we were young.
Big, I also promised to spend the rest of my life together... This love is unmatched by anyone..."
Although his words are simple, they are enough to make people think.
Baitao, who had been silent all this time, couldn't hold it in any longer, and whispered angrily: "Young Master Fang is bringing up the past now, doesn't it mean he thinks the eldest lady has caused the princess enough misfortune? The prince and the princess are now at odds with each other, why don't you congratulate her and give her best wishes?"
Forget it, how can you beat me up? The princess’s defense of you is really in vain. Fortunately, I used to think you were an honest scholar."
Baitao was just a low-status maid. She used to always defend Chu Miaoer, but now it seemed even more so. Tingfeng gently tugged on her sleeves, trying to stop her from shutting up with his eyes.
But the longer she stayed in the Fourth Prince's Mansion, Baitao's temper became increasingly mature. She glared at Tingfeng Qing and frowned and said, "If I hadn't been here tonight, I don't know what Master Fang would have said about my princess." Baitao turned around and said sincerely
The earth is blessed and the body is blessed, "Your Majesty, please don't listen to his nonsense. This slave has been with the Princess since she was a child. The Princess and Young Master Fang are in love but only polite. Your Majesty cannot be trusted."
Fang Yanru looked at the eloquent little girl in front of her. She could no longer overlap with the little follower-like person in her impression. He said this on purpose to irritate Fu Yunqi, but he didn't expect to offend Baitao, who was irritable.
Being impulsive is exactly the same as when I was a child.
"When did I say that I would believe his words?" Fu Yunqi pretended to be angry and looked up at her, "Why are you babbling all day long? Can I still not know whether the princess still has feelings for him?
?If they really have something, can I let him sit in front of me and talk to me?"
He was not just preaching to Baitao, he was also saying it to Fang Yanru. If Fang Yanru had some self-awareness, he should have known what he was implying.
"..." Baitao hesitated, and was forced to shut her mouth tightly by Fu Yunqi's eyes, but she still felt so aggrieved that Tingfeng even gouged him out when she came up to him. He was just a
She was just worried that the prince would misunderstand the princess. Is she wrong?
"Since I promised Miaomiao that I won't do anything to you, I will definitely keep my word, but if you dare to be foolish again," Fu Yunqi suddenly changed his tone and squinted his eyes slightly as if to warn, "I will let you, and even the Fang family
Life is worse than death."
This was the absolute suppression of a person with blood-stained hands on a person with no strength. Fu Yunqi broke his heart effortlessly. Fang Yanru rolled his throat and forced
Holding back the helplessness and pain in his heart, he stood up, bowed very respectfully, and said in a deep voice: "Yanru just said too much, please forgive me. After tonight, Yanruding should know how to abide by his duties."
He was convinced by Fu Yunqi. If it were him who had done what happened today, it would be impossible for him to be so innocent. Sister Miao'er would be very happy if he followed him. Thinking of this, Fang Yanru's heart welled up with a trace of sourness.
.
"It's late at night, and Master Fang doesn't have any of his servants with him," Fu Yunqi said calmly, "Tingfeng, you go see Master Fang off."
After doing such a disgraceful thing to the family tradition, how could Fang Yanru have the nerve to be escorted? Besides, he knew exactly who he was. If he hadn't been thinking about his unborn child, he would have wanted to die here.
"Don't bother me. I'll just walk back by myself. Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty."
Seeing Fang Yanru turning away lonely, Fu Yunchi just curled his lips and seemed to be in a good mood. If it was just a scene, who would really have nothing to do to send his unknown love rival out of the house?
"Go to the second lady's room and bring the princess back." Fu Yunqi ordered lightly. Baitao was still feeling aggrieved. After hearing his instructions, Baitao agreed in a muffled voice, felt slightly blessed, and turned around to leave.
Tingfeng found an excuse and hurriedly chased after him.
Seeing the two of them leaving one after another, Fu Yunchi smiled and sighed.
Shu Qingqing has a carefree temper, but the room is always tidy. Since her uncle was still sleeping soundly, Chu Miaoer followed her to the study room next to her. The candles in the room were lit early, and Zhixia was also very sensible.
Standing guard outside the door, you can hear the instructions without disturbing the two people's reminiscing about old times.
"Zhixia is still so sensible. My aunt takes care of all the big and small things on weekdays. It's best to have a considerate person by your side to serve you." Chu Miaoer looked at the closed door and turned to her with a smile.
Shu Qingqing also rolled her eyes and joked: "I found that Baitao has become more and more out-tempered after returning from Kyoto. Maybe it's because the master is favoring her, otherwise how could she be so bold without the support behind her?"
Chu Miaoer couldn't deny this, Baitao was indeed getting more and more angry.
"Little aunt, what happened with my cousin at Ling'an Temple back then..." She pondered for a moment before asking, "Does it really have anything to do with me?"
"What?!" Shu Qingqing was shocked and blurted out, "She said this to you?"
Seeing her reaction, Chu Miaoer knew that the matter was not as simple as she thought. There seemed to be something hidden. When she nodded slightly and was about to ask, Shu Qingqing stopped her softly.
"Miao'er, this is the fault of mother and daughter. I can only say that this matter has nothing to do with you, but I can't tell you much," Shu Qingqing said apologetically, "You should be considerate of my little aunt, right?
?”
I thought I could learn those unknown secrets from her mouth, but I didn't expect to be rejected. Seeing the distressed look on her face, Chu Miaoer could only smile and comfort her: "What did my aunt say? It's inconvenient.
To put it bluntly, I’m just making sure that I didn’t do this, so I can feel at ease for the rest of my life, don’t you think so?”
Since Chu Miao'er couldn't ask her doubts, she chatted with her little aunt about what she had seen and heard in Kyoto. They had a good time until a clear rooster crow sounded, and then he stood up and yawned to say goodbye to her.
"Baitao?" Chu Miaoer gently opened the door and saw Baitao getting up from the ground, rubbing his eyes sleepily and smiling faintly, "Let's go back, my aunt has to rest too."
"Zhi Xia, I'll go to bed in the study tonight, so as not to disturb you when I go back." Shu Qingqing smiled and said to Chu Miao'er, "I won't see you off."
"Why do you need to send it to me in your own house? My little aunt, please rest quickly. Miao'er is leaving first." After yawning, he bowed slightly and turned around and walked to the yard. It seemed that he was very sleepy.
When Zhixia saw the two masters and servants leaving, she closed the door quietly and then walked quickly to Shu Qingqing. While taking off her clothes, she asked: "Madam, why don't you just tell your cousin what happened back then? If she
What should I do if I misunderstand you?”
"I can't say this, but you have been holding it in your heart all your life. If you say it accidentally, it won't be our two heads involved. Hey," Shu Qingqing was lying on the soft couch in her clothes, half asleep and half awake.
He said, "Let's just leave it like this for now. It's better for everyone if we don't have the truth."
After Zhixia put out the candle, she stood aside and watched. Shu Qingqing thought she had forgotten all about it, but she didn't expect that Chu Miaoer's few words touched the deepest pain and regret in her heart.
.
Chu Miao'er with her hair in small hair gradually became clear in her mind. At that time, she raised her head with tears in her eyes and asked: "Little aunt, what should Miao'er do? Miao'er, Miao'er doesn't want to marry the He family.
Young Master...Miaol doesn't want to..."
Shu Qingqing bit her lip tightly to make no sound, but her tears wet the pillow cover.
There was a hint of bright color on the thin window paper, and a ray of morning light was reflected in the dark room. The sunlight passed through the window paper and cast light and shadow on the wall. Chu Miaoer slowly opened his eyes and saw this scene.
Suddenly the morning breeze blew by, the bamboos outside the window were whirling, the flowers and trees were swaying, and the mottled light and shadow on the wall shimmered and changed unpredictably. Looking at it like this, I felt a little distracted, and a thought came to my mind.
"Baitao," Chu Miaoer softly called to Baitao outside the window and said, "Come and help me wash up. I have to go somewhere today."
After saying that, he lifted the thin quilt and got out of bed. He didn't see Bai Tao, but he saw Fu Yunchi walking in with a smile. He slowly approached Chu Miao'er who was stunned and gently pressed a kiss on her forehead.
"Where do you want to go? Aren't Miaomiao going to take me with you?" Fu Yunqi asked with a smile. He was wearing a simple robe, with his black hair tied on top of his head. Just standing there was pleasing to the eye. He had just finished bathing,
There is still a trace of heat emanating from all over the body.
Why does he always have a fresh fragrance on his body? Chu Miaoer hugged him back and took a deep breath, sighing with satisfaction: "My husband is so good-looking and smells so good. I wish I could have you with me all the time."
That’s good.”
"Seriously?" Chu Miao'er was usually reserved, but this was the first time he heard her say sweet words. At this moment, Fu Yunchi felt as if he had been filled with honey.
Chu Miaoer raised her charming and pretty face and nodded affirmatively, with a coquettish smile on her face, the corners of her lips raised slightly, and her teeth slightly exposed, which made people enchanted.
"Then hold me tight and don't let go." The smile on Fu Yunqi's face deepened, revealing an unconcealable joy.
