Chapter 355 Stingy

"It's not his fault. He looks mature every day at such a young age. He doesn't have the slightest bit of youthful temperament. He's so boring. Just tease him."

Speaking, Leng Ruqing couldn't help but sigh.

"In the past, when I was in Hanyang at this time, I would go with my father to watch horseback riding, Cuju hunting, and hunting. It was so lively. In the capital, I was almost always at the palace. Occasionally, I mostly went to the palace."

There are many rules in the palace, and she doesn't like them even more.

Shen Ruoxi turned her eyes slightly and looked at her.

Leng Ruqing's temperament is indeed more suitable for the wider world, but for Murong Yao, she voluntarily confined herself to this city.

It can be seen that she really has him in her heart.

Leng Ruqing took Shen Ruoxi to the vendor where she bought hairpins. The chubby aunt was a little confused when she saw her.

"Madam, where is your husband? I just saw that you had a quarrel after you left my place. Did it hurt his self-esteem? Hey, this man's small age is actually not a big problem. He..."

Leng Ruqing interrupted her: "Auntie, my husband is actually not young at all. He is already sixteen years old. Although his martial arts is a bit weak, he is still a master. He just needs to practice more."

The aunt was stunned.

Does this mean "small and weak"? !

She thought...

The aunt suddenly felt that her heart was unclean.

"Forget about him, let's take a look at the hairpin. This is my friend. She also came over to help me take a look."

"This lady looks like a fairy at first sight! You are indeed destined to have extraordinary wealth, and the friends you have brought are all extraordinary people!"

The aunt saw Shen Ruoxi's astonished face and admired her from the bottom of her heart.

Shen Ruoxi just showed a faint smile: "Show me that red plum blossom hairpin."

"Okay, take a look."

The aunt couldn't help but lower her voice a little.

Although this lady's voice was gentle and unhurried, it carried a noble dignity that made people lower their attitude.

Shen Ruoxi inserted the hairpin in Leng Ruqing's hair.

Leng Ruqing looked at the bronze mirror aside and showed a satisfied smile.

"I also fell in love with this hairpin just now, and you happened to help me choose it."

"Red suits you well."

"I think so too, but the current situation is special... I'm afraid it's not suitable to bring something so bright."

Shen Ruoxi held her hand and whispered: "We are outside now. There are no rules. It doesn't matter if you just be your little princess for a while."

When Leng Ruqing heard this, she didn't take it off again.

Her eyes fell on Shen Ruoxi's hair, her eyes shining brightly.

"By the way, your hairpin is so beautiful. Where did you buy it? I want to buy it too."

"I'm afraid the hairpin flowers are gone."

Shen Ruoxi smiled bitterly: "Aheng bought them all."

Leng Ruqing:...

"Then I'll go find him and ask for some."

On the other side, Murong Yao stood opposite Murong Heng.

As soon as Shen Ruoxi and Leng Ruqing left, and they were the only ones left, the atmosphere seemed a little weird.

In the past, they were able to maintain a superficial peace, but since the last assassination, this superficial peace has become somewhat unsustainable, and now it has become somewhat cold.

Standing like this now, I feel a bit...

awkward.

"When you were four years old, you ran out of the palace with me during the Chinese New Year. It was about this time."

Murong Heng suddenly spoke, breaking the deadlock between the two.

A trace of surprise flashed in Murong Yao's eyes, and then she turned to look at him, only to see Murong Heng's eyes falling on a street vendor selling candied haws not far away, and he gestured.

"You were clamoring for that, but I didn't buy it for you, so you kept rolling on the ground, which made many people look over. It was embarrassing."

Murong Yao pursed his lips, not knowing what was going on, his mind twitched, and he suddenly asked.

"Then why don't you buy it for me?"

He regretted it as soon as he said it.

Why does it still sound like you are acting like a spoiled child?

Murong Heng twisted his eyebrows and said with some disgust: "I didn't bring any money. In the end, I saw that you were too embarrassed, so I had to get you a bunch of candied haws. You gave me a bunch of candied haws to pawn with a fine Hetian jade pendant. Then The piece of jade was given to me by my father."

Murong Yao: "...I don't remember."

"If you don't remember, you don't have to pay compensation?"

"Brother Ninth, stop joking."

Murong Yao lowered his eyes and responded in a low voice.

No matter how I thought about it, I felt it was unreliable. He was too young to remember what happened at that time. Murong Heng must have been tricking him casually.

Who would have thought that Murong Heng's words were neither salty nor bland.

"Who are you kidding me? When you got the candied haws, you said you wanted to make it up to me."

"What did I say?"

Hearing this, Murong Heng did not reply to him.

His deep eyes fell on him and suddenly said: "Father and Tuoba Ye are watching the Peking Opera together right now. Why don't you go?"

"Didn't Ninth Brother go too?" Murong Yao frowned, "I don't like him either. Tuoba Ye is so ambitious. My father should not let him come to the capital. Instead, he should pursue the victory and take Canglan Kingdom directly."

"You seem to know Tuoba Ye very well?"

"I heard what my uncle said."

Murong Yao hesitated for a moment: "He said that Tuoba Ye couldn't believe him, and he also said... Tuoba Ye has a very bad impression of you. Brother Ninth, you should pay more attention to him when he comes to Beijing this time."

"You do care about me."

Murong Heng snorted lightly.

Murong Yao just said: "I regard you as my opponent. I hope I can defeat you, rather than hope to be plotted by foreign enemies."

"Oh."

"..."

At this time, Shen Ruoxi and Leng Ruqing came over hand in hand, and they seemed to be in a good mood.

Murong Yao looked towards the two of them, feeling somewhat guilty for no reason.

But after calming down and thinking about it, Shen Ruoxi was there. If she said something wrong, she would definitely stop it. There was no need to worry so much about saying something inappropriate.

Thinking of this, his waist stopped a little.

As soon as Leng Ruqing came over, she stared at the large basket of hairpins next to Murong Heng.

"Brother Ninth...can you give me some hairpins?"

Although she was straightforward, she still felt a little pressured when facing Murong Heng.

Murong Heng didn't even blink.

"No."

Leng Ruqing:?

Shen Ruoxi:...

Murong Yao said: "They are also sold elsewhere, let's go and have a look."

Shen Ruoxi glared at Murong Heng.

"You just said you were going to give them away, but now what's the matter with sending a few to Ruqing?"

"I want to give it away, but after you finish picking it, give it to someone else."

"Murong Heng!"

Seeing that Shen Ruoxi's voice was a little heavy, Murong Heng reluctantly bent down, picked a hairpin made of silk from the basket, and threw it to Leng Ruqing.

Leng Ruqing's eyes twitched.

So stingy.

I really want to curse, but I don’t dare.

Shen Ruoxi couldn't stand it and pushed Murong Heng away, then asked Leng Ruqing to pick out a few hairpins she liked.

After finishing the selection, Shen Ruoxi didn't stay long, so she said goodbye to the two of them, got into the carriage with Murong Heng, and rushed to Shen Yue's mansion.

Looking at the carriage going further and further away, Leng Ruqing frowned and sighed.

"I didn't expect His Royal Highness to be quite stingy."

"It's stingy."

Thinking of what he said about candied haws, Murong Yao couldn't help but agree.

It's really okay to want to trick him.

Murong Yao thought of something.

"You and the Crown Princess just went to the stall where you were buying hairpins. Didn't you say anything strange?"

"What weird words are you saying that you are small and weak?"

Murong Yao felt a surge of blood flowing backward.

Leng Ruqing smiled slyly: "I told you, but it's true that you are young and your martial arts skills are not very strong. Is there anything you can't say?"

Murong Yao: "..."

Leng Ruqing sneaked closer to him: "You don't have to doubt yourself. In fact, you are on the bed...well, it's quite okay."

The tips of Murong Yao's ears turned red, and then he stared at her.

"What nonsense are you talking about in the street?"

"Didn't I tell you this secretly? It's not publicity on the streets."

Murong Yao looked at the hairpin she was playing with and asked casually.

"Why do you ask the prince for this?"

"It's beautiful." Leng Ruqing squinted her eyes, smiled suddenly, and then inserted the hairpin into Murong Yao's hair.

"As soon as I saw this hairpin, I thought it was very suitable for you. As the saying goes... The young man with the hairpin, Murong Yao, is really suitable for you."

She stared at him, her eyes brighter than the stars, and the love and admiration in them were frank and sincere.

Murong Yao suddenly didn't want to look her in the eyes.

He looked away and his eyes fell on her bun.

"Did you buy a hairpin?"

"Yes, Ruoxi and I picked it out together." Leng Ruqing held her bun, her eyes filled with anticipation, "How about it, do you think my hairpin looks good?"

Leng Ruqing turned her head away. There was a red plum blossom hairpin stuck in the black bun on the back of her head. The texture was not good and the workmanship was a bit rough. But among the dark cloud-like black hair, it showed a unique look. So touching.

"Are you mute? Speak."

"It's so ugly."

Murong Yao turned around and left.

Leng Ruqing's nose almost twisted with anger.

Can't you learn from Murong Heng? Although he is stingy, he can love others!

Murong Yao took a few steps forward, but did not see Leng Ruqing following him. He was about to turn his head to take a look when he suddenly heard a loud voice coming from behind him.

"Husband, don't be angry. Even though you are small and weak, I will not dislike you~"

In an instant, the people around him stopped and all their eyes fell on Murong Yao.

Murong Yao only felt his head buzzing.

He turned around with a livid face, only to see that Leng Ruqing had already run away dozens of meters away, and soon her back was gone.
