Because she drank a little wine, her cheeks had a peach blush, her cheeks were slightly red, with a hint of drunkenness, her eyes were like autumn water, and her lips were rosy, making her look even more charming. She also exuded a faint floral fragrance, and her hair was The white jade hairpin was still inserted, but this time she looked particularly dazzling. There was no rouge on her face, and the hair on both sides swayed gently with the breeze, making her look delicate and charming.
"Thank me for what?" Fu Yunqi had a faint starlight in his eyes, and those few strands of floating hair seemed to be scratching the tip of his heart, making him extremely itchy.
Chu Miaoer tilted her head and thought for a moment, held her chin, and smiled charmingly: "Thank you, of course -"
The fragrance floats in the wind, and my heart becomes intoxicated.
"Ha--" Fu Yunchi saw her face was flushed, and her bright almond eyes seemed to be shining with starlight. His heart was wandering, and he showed an evil smile. He leaned over and gently lifted her chin, getting closer and closer. , the voice was charming and confusing, "This is not how you thank someone, you have to do it like this -" Before he could finish his words, he lowered his head and covered her lips. He held her face with both hands, rubbing her face inch by inch, moving Gently as if caring for a treasure.
"Fu Yunqi!——" Her eyes flashed, half happy and half angry, and her slightly pursed red lips were crystal clear. This half-annoyed and half-coquettish look made Fu Yunchi burst into laughter.
There was a smile in his eyes. He simply put the jade flute aside and poured himself a glass of wine. This small lake was built to imitate Yunwu Villa. After many days, the place here has become lush with leaves and flowers, especially It's the tree that blooms beautifully.
"What kind of tree is that? I've never seen it in the Kingdom of Jin before." He asked curiously.
Chu Miao'er smiled slightly, stood up and looked in the direction he pointed and said: "It's the pomegranate sent by my second sister-in-law. It's blooming vigorously now. It will start bearing fruit in September and will be edible on the Double Ninth Festival. That girl Baitao is looking forward to it." It will produce seeds as soon as possible, and you have to check them every day before you can rest assured.”
"Second sister-in-law is really thoughtful," Fu Yunqi nodded, "Many people bought seeds from vendors. But pomegranates are produced in the Western Regions and are not adapted to the climate here. In the end, they all did it hastily and grew into Although the pomegranate tree is easy to survive, it is also difficult to transport. So far, no one is willing to spend energy on it. Therefore, this can be regarded as the first pomegranate in the Kingdom of Jin. I want people to pay close attention to it and don't worry about it then. It was stolen."
"Hahaha -" Chu Miao'er covered her mouth and laughed, "Who dares to come to the palace to steal fruit? I have already calculated it. When the fruit is ripe, the first one will be sent to the second sister-in-law, and Sister Huyin, Send some more to the Queen Mother, the Queen can give a few, and by the way, Miss Yang can also give a few, and leave some for Baitao, Tingfeng——"
Chu Miao'er was talking enthusiastically when she turned around and saw Fu Yunqi looking at her intently, his eyes full of tenderness and affection. Gradually, a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and his expression became softer.
"You are completely different from what I remember."
Hearing this, Chu Miaoer raised her eyebrows slightly, sat in front of him, took a sip of sake from the cup in Fu Yunchi's hand, raised her head and asked with a smile: "What's the difference?"
"Do you still remember the birthday of Duke Chu?" Seeing her shaking her head in confusion, Fu Yunqi said slowly in a low voice, "That day when the emperor bullied you and Concubine Xue, I hid behind the rockery. The queen mother was not yet The Queen Mother and the Emperor's brother are not favored. That day, I was asked by the Queen Mother to help the Emperor's brother. As soon as I walked into the back garden, I saw you standing facing each other. You were hiding behind Concubine Xue, and you were so submissive that you were scared. I wanted to cry, but I was thinking at that time that the daughter of the Prime Minister is so timid, and I don’t know who would dare to ask for her in the future."
He must be talking about the real Chu Miao'er, who doesn't feel hurt even if her father is gone. She has been living under someone else's roof since she was a child, and she has been bullied so much that she feels pitiful when she thinks about it.
"Since you have seen it all, you still don't help me," Chu Miao'er stood up and sat next to him, pretending to be angry, "and you still stand behind me and watch my jokes."
As she moved, a strand of hair from her temples inadvertently floated onto Fu Yunqi's face. Fu Yunqi stretched out his hand and tucked the strand of hair behind her ear very naturally. The hot breath from the tip of his nose touched her face, making it slightly hot.
.
"Actually, I've seen you once since that time." Fu Yunqi looked at her very seriously with his peach blossom eyes and said.
Chu Miao'er raised her eyebrows slightly. This was beyond her surprise. Could it be that he and Chu Miao'er had been in love since they were young? She frowned and thought about it carefully. Baitao grew up with Chu Miao'er, and she had never
I heard Baitao mention the intersection between Chu Miaoer and Fu Yunqi. Moreover, judging from Fu Yunqi's behavior during their wedding, it seems that they were not in love. Otherwise, how could he bear to let her stay alone in the empty room for so long.
"I don't think you can remember it. If you hadn't suddenly become my princess after such a long time, I would have almost forgotten it." Sima Minglang smiled slightly. He looked at the small lake in the night, pondered for a long time, and then calmly said
He told the story of that year in a different tone.
Chu Miaoer stopped talking and listened quietly with her chin in her hands.
It was the year before last that Dong Jue, who had been dormant for many years, started to make a move and began to test the edges. It was at this time that Fu Yunqi had an argument with his mother and ran out of the palace in anger. He was sneaking out of the palace, and only Ting Feng was with him. The two of them
He rode horseback and galloped all the way to Xiling. He was full of energy and wanted to learn the tactics that the Dongjue people had studied so hard for so many years.
As a result, there were more and more refugees as he went west. He saw the Dongjue people burning, killing and looting with cruel methods. Although they did not kill people randomly, the silver scimitars in their hands were frightening. Fu Yunqi suddenly regretted that he was alone.
I was afraid that they would inevitably suffer a loss. It was absolutely impossible to ride a horse now. It was too eye-catching. Fu Yunqi and his wife thought for a moment before abandoning their horses and setting off.
It was no longer possible to turn back, so they could only follow the refugees being pushed forward. As they walked, Fu Yunqi turned around and saw Tingfeng's figure behind him. They were all unkempt refugees. He didn't know when they left.
They were scattered. He was pushed forward and could not distinguish anything clearly. When he reached a place, the refugees suddenly dispersed. Only then did Fu Yunqi have time to look up and take a closer look. It turned out that he had entered the territory of Dongling unknowingly.
.
Dongling is located in hills and is surrounded by mountains. It is like a natural barrier. It is a good place for soldiers and civilians to rest. They have never been so busy. Fu Yunqi walked exhausted to an antique rouge shop. The shopkeeper
He seemed not to be surprised, and handed Fu Yunqi a glass of water.
As a prince, he was accustomed to seeing conspiracies and plots in the palace since childhood. Fu Yunqi subconsciously raised his hand to refuse. It can be seen that the shopkeeper, who was in his fifties, looked honest and honest, and had a kind smile on his face, was actually too embarrassed to come and extend his hand.
He took it and drank it in one gulp.
Refugees were lying on the ground in a mess, lying on the ground in front of shops.
Fu Yunqi found a cleaner place and leaned against the door to close his eyes to rest. A sudden loud noise woke him up. Fu Yunqi stood up. He must have been sitting for a long time and hadn't eaten for a long time. His eyesight went dark and his figure swayed.
He was about to faint when suddenly a soft and waxy voice sounded in his ears.
"Everyone has left, what are you doing here?"
I saw this girl wearing a fairy bun, wearing a pink embroidered dress, her face still has some baby fat, she is fair and pink, and she has a delicate look that only a child can have.
Isn't this the second daughter of Prime Minister Chu, the timid Chu Miao'er? Why is she in Dongling?
Fu Yunqi was stunned, looking at her gradually opening facial features and her round, almond-shaped eyes. Although she was still childish, she had a rare aura.
Seeing that he didn't respond for a long time, Chu Miaoer bit her lip and simply picked him up and ran away.
He felt his hand being held by a pair of soft hands, and the street scene along the road moved back crazily. Looking at the round back of her head, Fu Yunqi felt that for the first time in his life, he was being held by someone in public, and he didn't even feel disgusted in his heart.
After running through the streets and alleys and arriving at a temple, Chu Miaoer stopped panting. After letting go of her hands, she found that there was a thin layer of sweat on her palms. She took out a silk handkerchief from her arms and wiped it gently. After resting for a long time, he asked: "This young master was also in a hurry just now. Please forgive me if I have offended you. But, judging from your clothes, you are not from Dongling, right? Have you been separated from your family?"
Fu Yunqi didn't say anything for a long time. He didn't expect that she didn't remember him. They had obviously met once in the Chu Mansion. Since she had forgotten, forget it. Anyway, they said goodbye today. She stayed well in Dongling. From now on, they There will be no intersection between the two.
Chu Miao'er looked at him with a pair of big eyes. Fu Yunqi had never seen such clean and clear eyes in his whole life. He blurted out: "I am from Kyoto," and then regretted that he should not let her know about him. Identity matters, so he quickly added: "My family and I went to Xiling, and we were accidentally separated by refugees."
Fu Yunqi looked at her intently, hoping in his heart that she would remember something.
"No wonder, but I don't have anything valuable on me." Chu Miaoer rummaged around for a long time, took out a money bag and handed it to him, "This is the money my grandmother gave me during the Chinese New Year. You can buy it first." No one here knows about some food, so you can avoid it for the time being and go back to your family again."
Fu Yunchi looked down at the purse with a beautifully embroidered unicorn in his hand, and felt slightly moved in his heart. When he saw her holding up her skirt and getting ready to stand up, he hurriedly asked, "Where are you going?"
"I am also separated from my family, and now I am going to look for my grandmother," she thought for a moment and then said soothingly, "I grew up in Jinling. You can just hide here for half a day and then leave. They attack Not coming in."
"Thank you -" Fu Yunchi said hurriedly when he saw her disappearing at the door.
"It's just a matter of effort, don't worry about it," she turned back and pointed at her face and smiled mischievously at him, "remember to wipe your face before you leave, otherwise they won't recognize you."
After hearing this, Fu Yunqi immediately lowered his head and touched his face. As expected, it was black. When he looked up, the figure was no longer there.
The memories came to an abrupt end here. Fu Yunqi did not expect that by some strange combination of circumstances, she would become his princess. No one knew it. When he knew that she would marry Chu Xianxue into the fourth prince's palace, he was so happy for two days. Not sleeping.
"That's it." Fu Yunqi looked at her with a smile and said softly.
