fake prince

Chapter 667

Even some famous people in the capital know that Dai Guogong is now regarded as a master of poetry and painting, but for Princess Xinping, it is not worth paying attention to in the first place.In other words, for Princess Xinping, when she saw the content of the painting, she was already so angry that she couldn't think about the problem.

I saw that in this picture, only two people were drawn, both young girls, facing each other.

One of them has a graceful figure and a joyful expression, wearing a phoenix crown and Xiapei. Although it is painted in ink and wash, it can be seen that the painting must be a bride, while the girl opposite is wearing a flowing Taoist robe and holding a whisk. She is also graceful, but she is obviously a bride. Female crown (female priest).

The appearance is vivid, and it is the appearance of Princess Xinping.

Su Ziji painted these two people, what is he trying to express?
"Are you mocking me? After guessing my intentions, someone sent a picture to mock me?"

Princess Xinping's heart aches, her eyes are red, if Su Ziji is not in front of her at this time, she is afraid that she will not just stare at the sender of the painting, but will pounce on the painter.

It's too bullying, you just make my heart cheap like this?
She didn't think that Su Ziji drew such two women on purpose, and asked someone to send the picture to her as a gesture of friendliness!

"When you draw a bride, don't you want to tell me that you want to marry me? Even if you think about it, you know it's impossible! He and I are aunts and nephews, and he clearly knows that there is no possibility! Someone sent this thing to me on purpose , not to poke my heart, what else could it be for?"

Thinking of this, Princess Xinping shook the picture in her hand, and sneered at the wild Taoist: "Okay, that's great! If your master gives me this picture, you won't be afraid that I will get angry at you if I get angry? "

Ye Daoist Zuo faced Princess Xinping's angry face directly, and smiled bitterly in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it on his face, so he could only lower his head so that she would not see his expression.

"The princess was joking, you are such a nobleman, how can you get angry with a small person like me?"

"Really? Then tell Duke Dai that I have accepted the picture."

"Go back!"

Princess Xinping said coldly, needless to say how she felt when she received the picture, it's not hard to tell from the colder face.

Ye Daoist was eager to leave, so he left immediately.

After leaving the gate of the princess mansion, looking back, the wild Taoist looked at the misty rain: "My lord's painting is really a pen that can solve the princess' predicament. With the princess's intelligence and connections, even if she can't figure it out for a while, she will definitely understand it later. I understand the painstaking efforts of the lord."

It's a pity that neither he nor the protagonist can directly explain some things. I hope she can see the meaning of the painting sooner.

As soon as he left, Princess Xinping swept the cup on the table and dropped it to the ground. She wanted to pick up the painting and tear it up, but she stopped for some reason.

She sobbed silently, and said in her mouth: "How dare you laugh at me like this, this picture is the proof, I will ask you to explain to me one day what it means!"

Using this excuse to persuade myself, I intend to ask people to put the picture away.

Just at this time, a female official of Pixiang Palace, accompanied by a maid, walked into the main courtyard and came to the entrance of the hall.

"Princess." The female officer saluted.

Princess Xinping was startled, rolled up the picture and put it aside, asked her to get up, and asked the maid to retreat outside the hall, her eyes were reddish and she asked, "Why are you here suddenly? Is the concubine okay?"

She was never worried about her mother and concubine before, but now she is startled every day.

"Your Majesty is fine. My Majesty let this servant out of the palace to meet you just to tell you that it's just a birthday, but it doesn't really matter if it's a birthday. Please don't feel resentful towards the Emperor because of this... You know, Thunder Rain Dew It's all due to your kindness." The female officer said with a low eyebrow.

"Thunder, rain and dew are all the grace of the king?" Princess Xinping smiled bitterly after hearing this.

If it was in the past, she would not have taken it to heart when she heard this. After all, she has been doted on by her father and emperor since she was a child.
But now, after listening to her, she didn't refute.

Seeing that she really listened to it, the female officer of Pixiang Palace also heaved a sigh of relief, but felt sad, thinking how capricious she was back then, but now she is like a frosted vegetable.

She has grown up, but if possible, the empress does not want her to grow up.

The female officer thought to herself, and then turned to comfort: "However, don't worry too much. The empress also said, as long as you have a sense of awe in your heart. Although you are the queen's father first, there is another saying called father and daughter nature. You are a princess , is different from the prince, for you, the emperor has loved you for more than ten years, and it is impossible to really ignore you."

Some comfort made Princess Xinping feel better.

The female officer came over this time, persuading her was secondary, and brought news of Concubine Wu, saying that there was nothing serious, which was the main reason for Princess Xinping's better mood.

"Don't leave first, help me to see this picture." Just before the lady officer left, Princess Xinping thought about what happened just now, and hurriedly unfolded the scroll picture for the lady officer to see.

The female officer was puzzled at first, but when she saw the unfolded picture of a bride and a female Taoist priest, she looked a little strange when she looked carefully.

"Did you see anything?" Princess Xinping asked, calming down a bit. She also felt that if Su Ziji just laughed at herself, there was no need for it at all.

The female officer hesitated and said, "I dare not speak."

Princess Xinping just raised her eyebrows: "Tell me, no matter what you see, if you tell me, I won't blame you!"

The female officer then said: "The princess is dissatisfied with the emperor. The reason is actually because of rumors of an affair with the Duke of Dai, which is detrimental to ethics. Therefore, as long as the princess gets married, this can be avoided, and the emperor will turn his anger into joy. The person you drew is kind enough to point you out."

Princess Xinping had a sullen face. Although she didn't want to admit it, she had to say that the female officer's explanation made sense.

Could it be that her previous guess was wrong, and Su Ziji sent someone to send this picture not to humiliate himself, but to guide him out of the current predicament with good intentions?
Feeling depressed, she pointed to the female Taoist priest in the picture and asked, "What about this one?"

To draw a bride is to persuade her to get married, and to draw a female Taoist priest, could it be...

The female officer looked around in panic, and found that except for the two of them, the maid was standing far away, so she lowered her voice and said, "This is to remind you, princess, that you can become a monk, but you can become a Taoist princess."

Princesses who entered Taoism have existed in previous dynasties. Royal princesses either became widowed after marriage or were involved in some incidents.

But their female crowns are only in name, and they can usually live in Taoist temples, but in fact, most of them still live in princess mansions. Wearing female crowns, they can live in luxury, and even hold literary meetings in the name of Taoist princesses. Guests and friends, apart from temporarily being unable to get married, it can be said that there is not much difference from when they did not enter the Tao.

This is a means, and she can return to vulgarity at any time, but for Princess Xinping, who has a proud personality, choosing to become a Taoist princess means giving in, a compromise, even if it is a compromise to the emperor, it also makes her feel uncomfortable.

"I understand." Princess Xinping said after a while, not wanting to show her vulnerability in front of others.

"You go back first and tell my concubine mother that everything is fine with me in the princess mansion, so don't worry about concubine mother."

The female officer stepped back.

When the people left, Princess Xinping's gaze fell on the picture again, and tears flowed down her cheeks. In the empty hall, she was sitting alone, hugging herself, shrinking into a ball, choking uncontrollably.
