I was on duty in front of the palace, and even a casual cough could bring disaster, so even though there was no serious problem, I still told Li Dequan for leave just to be careful.Let Yutan be on duty for me. After thinking about it for a long time, I still found Fang He, and said casually: "I've been resting for the past two days, and I want to ask Ba Ye face to face about something." With the courtyard door ajar, he was lying on a bamboo reclining chair with a book on his face, shaking while basking in the sun with his eyes closed.The courtyard door slammed a few times, I took the book away, opened my eyes and looked at the courtyard door and said, "Please come in!"

With a sound of 'squeak', the eighth elder brother pushed the door and entered, he closed the door again as usual, looked at the smoker and tea set beside me, looked at me leaning on the recliner and said with a smile: "Good life will enjoy !” I stood up and said, “If you are really envious, there are so many things to enjoy!” He stared at the green smoke on the smoker in a blink of an eye and remained silent for a while, then asked, "Is there anything wrong with your body? Why don't you know how to cherish yourself so much? Go out for a stroll when it's raining?" I shook my head and said, "Is it true that you are here today?" There is something I want to ask. According to brother Hongwang, he seems to often find fault with his sister, but is it true?" He looked up at me, frowned slightly, pondered for a while and said, "When will Hongwang What did you say?"

With a smile on my lips, I said, "It doesn't matter when you say it, what matters is the content." He looked at me helplessly, smiled slightly and shook his head and said, "It's just a child's joke, do you take it seriously?" I stared at him and said with a smile: "Children's words are the most truthful!" He frowned slightly and said, "Hongwang occasionally goes to make trouble with Ruolan, but Ruolan laughed and said that children are always You like to play around, and you don't care at all. Instead, you look like asking questions. What are you doing?"

I said lightly: "Hongwang is your only child, it's your business to pamper him. But if someone bullies others through the child, you turn a blind eye, it's too much!" He looked at me and asked, "How do you know I haven't mentioned Hongwang? How many things do you know about my mansion, so you accuse me?" I was angry and sneered and said, "The things about your mansion, I don't care at all. I just hope that you will care about my sister's life because of you, and protect her! As for whether Hongwang is just a child's nonsense, you should figure it out yourself!"

He flicked his sleeves, turned around and left, came to the door, stopped suddenly, turned back, looked at me and asked: "What's wrong with us? Isn't it good on the grassland? Why can't you do that now? It's rare to see me. On the other hand, do you want to quarrel with me too?" I stood silently with my head bowed, and my heart was also a little sad. There was only you and me on the grassland, without the throne, without your wife, and your son. Now there are so many people and things between you and me, how can it be the same? Seeing me standing quietly with my head bowed, he sighed softly, stretched his arms into his arms and said, "I'll ask Hongwang. Don't be so angry because of a child's words!" Over his shoulder, no answer.After a while, he said softly again: "If you are really worried about Ruolan, wouldn't it be better to marry me earlier? Then you can see her every day, and with you by her side, you can still be happy." Does anyone dare to bully the elder sister of 'Thirteen Sisters' casually? Aren't you afraid of being slapped?" I was silent in my heart, 'sisters serve a husband together' is a romantic story in their eyes, but it is a thorn in my heart.

He waited quietly for a while, seeing that there was no reaction from me, he asked softly: "Have you not thought about it yet? I am so confused about you now, I don't understand what you are thinking at all? I don't believe you are a cowardly person who is afraid of death." Man, what are you hesitating about?" He raised my head, stared into my eyes, and said, "Are you so unconfident in me?" After a pause, he asked slowly, "Or do you have other reasons?" I forced a smile and said, "It's been a while since you've been here, it's time to go back! Give me some more time, please? Let me think about it again!" He looked at me silently for a while, sighed softly, and settled down. Said: "Ruoxi! I am not Xiang Yu, and I will never let you be Concubine Yu!" After finishing speaking, she turned and left the courtyard.

Kangxi was in a very good mood today, and he specially ordered fruit refreshments to be set up in the Imperial Garden to chat and take a walk with a few elder brothers!All the elder brothers also act like brothers and friends, respectful, and Cheng Huan's knees.To those who don't know, it seems to be very enjoyable.When Kangxi got up to change clothes, Li Dequan had just waited on him and left.The laughter and joy just now were suddenly a little cold.But then, everyone was busy talking and laughing, covering up the momentary coldness. I stood on the outside, looking down at the golden fallen leaves on the ground, wondering how to find a chance to have a few words with Shisan alone?Before Minmin left, she repeatedly asked me to help her test Shisan's intentions, but I never met a suitable opportunity to talk to Shisan alone, and secondly, I did have some delays because of my own concerns.

As he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard several elder brothers laughing. Looking up, a snow-white curly-haired puppy was pulling the hem of the fourth elder brother's robe, wagging its tail and flopping about for fun.The fourth elder brother looked down at it, not paying attention.All the brothers were amused by the appearance of the puppy. I also pursed my lips and looked at the puppy laughing. A thirteen or fourteen-year-old little girl ran over in a hurry, and looked at all the big and small elder brothers in a sudden, and saw the puppy biting the fourth elder brother's clothes, and her face immediately turned pale. , fell to his knees, just kowtowed.

This should be the palace lady who is dedicated to taking care of the puppy for the master. She accidentally let the dog run away by herself, and even came over and ran into elder brother.I took a few steps forward and asked in a low voice, "Why are you so careless?" With tears in her eyes, she just kowtowed as she looked at me. My heart softened, thinking about how old this child was, I entered this cage alone!I wanted to put on a show for everyone to see, but now I have to.Turning around and bowing to the fourth elder brother, he said with a smile, "Slave servant, get the dog away now." As he spoke, he wanted to step forward to hug the dog.

The fourth elder brother, who kept looking down at the dog, looked up at me with a faint smile on his face.I knew why he had a smile in his eyes, and he was also amused in his heart. Thinking of him comparing me to this little thing, I couldn't help but glance at the dog, and gave him an angry look.He smiled even more, and glanced at me again, looking at the little dog wagging its head and tail.He bent over and picked up the dog and handed it to me. When I took the dog, the two of them looked at the puppy, and they both pursed their lips and smiled slightly.I looked at the little girl kneeling outside the pavilion and asked: "My lord, how should I punish her?" The fourth elder brother touched the puppy's head and said: "It's no big deal, you can figure it out."

With a smile on my face, I handed the dog back to the little girl who was kneeling on the ground with her head bowed. She accepted it gratefully. Dog, don't mind.But if the puppy bumps into a noble owner who hates dogs next time, the unlucky one is not the dog, but her.So I whispered a few words to make her remember in the future. When he turned around with a smile in his eyes, he just happened to meet the dark eyes of the eighth elder brother. They were so dark that it was difficult to distinguish between emotions and anger, and the two of them missed each other.With a smile on his lips, he chatted with Fifth Prince.My heart tightened, and the smile in my eyes dissipated immediately.Fourteen eyes were shining brightly and looked at me with a half-smile.Not daring to take a closer look, I walked back to my original position and stood with my head bowed. After Kangxi came back, the elder brothers walked casually for a while with him. Kangxi said that he was a little tired, so he asked all elder brothers to feel free.Li Dequan waited on Kangxi and returned to Qianqing Palace first.After I ordered the maids and eunuchs to pack their things, I went back to Qianqing Palace. Before the person came out of the imperial garden, there were hurried footsteps behind me, I paused slightly, and before I could look back, I was suddenly dragged and hid behind a tree.I was slightly startled, but seeing that it was fourteen, I became helpless again!Glancing at his hand that was holding my arm, he said calmly, "Li Wenda is still waiting for me to go back!" Fourteen let go of his hand, clenched his fist, and asked expressionlessly, "You and starling What's going on?" I turned my head in silence and didn't answer. Fourteen waited for a while, saw that I hadn't answered, and asked again: "I asked him why he didn't ask Huang Ama for a marriage, and he didn't answer. I asked you, but you just kept silent! I don't know what happened. Know something?" He was quiet for a while, then asked in a tight voice: "You and fourth brother are smiling today, what happened?" I turned my head and said helplessly, "Brother Fourteen! Although you have several Fujins, how much do you know about the affairs between men and women? You don't have to worry about the affairs between me and Eighth Brother. As for Speaking of me and Fourth Master, are we only allowed to laugh, but not allowed to laugh at Fourth Master and me for a dog?" After speaking, I wanted to push his body away and leave, but he didn't move. I looked at him and signaled him to make way.He looked at me quietly for a while, moved out of the way, and said slowly and coldly, "Don't let my starling down! Otherwise..." His eyes flickered with coldness.I'm so scared!I rolled my eyes to the sky, and walked away. After walking a few steps, he suddenly stopped again, turned around and asked, "Is Elder Brother Ten in trouble?" Fourteen said lightly, "That's an excuse for Emma Huang, he didn't come today because Fujin was not feeling well. Brother Ten is fine!" I gave a light 'oh', my heart moved slightly, I thought about it, and wanted to ask again, but seeing Fourteen's indifferent expression, I swallowed the words that came to my lips, and said He blessed his body, turned and left. It wasn't until I went back to my room and lay on the bed at night that I suddenly remembered that I forgot about looking for Shisan again!I have to rejoice that this matter is not in a hurry!
