Shocked! After planting, a sickly and charming first assistant will grow up.

The four people stood up and saluted: "I have met the Fourth Prince."

Luo Xi sat still and raised her eyebrows. Is this the legendary fourth prince? Seeing it up close for the first time, he looks good, but unfortunately his utilitarianism is too obvious.

His attention was on his cousins, but he kept glancing at him from the corner of his eye. His tone was pretending to be helpless, "How many times have I told you, cousins, there is no need to see me outside."

"The etiquette cannot be discarded." Qi Yan smiled and asked directly: "You are here to see Big Brother, right?"

Without waiting for an answer, he said directly to Qi Si, "Brother! You take the fourth prince to the study to discuss things, and we will accompany Xi'er around the mansion."

This guy likes to use his face to bring disaster to the country and the people, and he likes to seduce little girls who are inexperienced in the world. He has provoked many women to marry him.

He used this relationship to secretly attract forces.

The Duke's office is a staunch royalist. On weekdays, he is at most close to the prince, and others are respectful and indifferent.

This guy is definitely not showing off if he doesn't knock on the door after saying hello.

He took a step forward and blocked Luo Xi with his body without leaving any trace.

The fourth prince's eyes twitched. Is there something wrong? What did he do? Where does all this hostility come from?

The whole generation of the Duke's government was like a slippery loach. He tried to win him over by relying on family ties. The whole government had a lukewarm attitude toward him, but they never showed such obvious hostility.

Qi Si nodded slightly and stepped in front of Luo Xi before the second child. He stretched out his hand and made a "please" gesture: "Fourth Prince, please come to the study."

Zhan Ting, the fourth prince, laughed, "I didn't even say what I was here for, so is it appropriate for you to just get rid of me?"

"What do you think? Luo Xi!" The last sentence was said to Luo Xi, who was being protected by her cousins.

"Who are you? If we are acquainted, let me ask for your opinion!" Luo Xi rolled her eyes. She didn't like people who didn't like it and directly criticized her. She didn't like to be conciliatory with others.

Ask her for steps? You have the wrong person.

He pulled Qi Rui and left, "Didn't you tell me to show me the crickets? Let's go to your yard!"

Although she wasn't completely sure, this person was probably coming for her, and she wasn't interested in knowing what his purpose was.

"Wait a minute! Did this prince offend you?" Zhan Ting's stunning face showed confusion. He was really confused. Why were the two of them hostile to him?

He found out that this boy named Luo Xi had been a disciple of a capable Taoist and had passed down no less than a few prescriptions that were useful to him.

I really want to make friends with the other person.

It's a pity that Luo Xi rarely goes out since she came to Beijing, and all the greeting cards or invitations to go out to the lake that were sent to her by others have never been heard.

Today, the spies stationed outside the mansion came to report that they had witnessed Luo Xi entering the Duke's mansion. He had found out about the good relationship between Qi Rui and Luo Xi. After thinking about it, he thought this was an opportunity to make friends.

Unexpectedly, this family members all looked like they had eaten firecrackers, and their expressions darkened slightly. Isn't Luo Xi a good man? She didn't react at all to his face?

When he raised his head again, he smiled warmly and said, "Luo..." He only uttered one word and got stuck. He looked around, where was Luo Xi?

His smile could no longer be maintained, and his face looked ugly.

There was a voice beside him that sounded like a ghost: "Fourth Prince...please!"

"..."

Qi Rui and Luo Xi smiled at each other as they left.

Qi Rui's nose was not a nose, his eyes were not eyes, and he said angrily: "Cousin! You don't know, this fourth prince is very disgusting."

"I have been cheating and seducing little girls all day long. At the palace banquet the year before last, the daughter of the Minister of Etiquette and the granddaughter of the old censor behaved inappropriately because of him in the palace. The old censor and the others sued the emperor together."

"The emperor asked him to choose a woman of his choice to get married, but he refused on the grounds that 'the prince is not married, so he must be ranked behind his brother'."

"If anyone can't see his little intention of winning over people, the emperor has said a few times that he won't care anymore."

Qi Rui smiled maliciously, "Let me tell you quietly, our second prince and concubine don't care about marrying anyone, we are also thinking about the fourth prince."

Luo Xi shrugged. Sure enough, no matter what era, people always look at their faces.

Not long after, Qi Yan escaped and ran over. Only Han Pi Lao San was left by his eldest brother to entertain guests...

The four of them set up the table and chatted about Beijing gossip while playing mahjong. Qi Rui kept shouting at his cousin, while Luo Xi shouted at him to stop.

"It's better to call me by my name. I don't want to resume women's clothing for the time being. Let you know because we are one family."

Qi Yan nodded, "That's good, so you don't get stared at by dogs."

Luo Xi: "..." Are you treating her as a flesh and bone? Also stared at by dogs.

After a few rounds of mahjong, it was dinner time, and the third cousin came to arrest him personally. When he opened the door, he saw his stupid son lying facelessly on the shoulder of the little cotton-padded jacket, smiling like a 250-year-old.

After enduring it, he suppressed the curse that rushed to his throat. He could not lose his image as a good uncle and said in a gentle tone: "Xi'er, let's eat."

Qi Rui looked like he had seen a ghost, "Dad, do you have a chicken feather stuck in your throat? Do you speak in a weird accent?"

Qi Xianglei couldn't hold it back, so he took off one of his shoes and slapped Qi Rui on the forehead, "I'll turn you into chicken feathers."

After a flurry of excitement, Qi Xianglei led the three of them to the dining room. The table was filled with delicacies, and his maternal uncle and three aunts were already seated.

As expected, the fourth prince is still there.

Men and women were divided into two seats. When he saw Luo Xi, the fourth prince's eyes lit up. He was exhausted physically and mentally after spending an afternoon with the eldest son of the Qi family.

He stood up and was about to greet him, but he didn't expect the second child of the Qi family to directly hold the fourth child by his collar and said, "Take the guests to sit at grandma's table and talk to the old man."

Qi Rui got what she wanted and led Luo Xi straight to the woman's table.

It is not harsh for ordinary men and women to guard against each other, not to mention that there are elders at the table, so there is nothing to avoid.

From time to time, laughter and laughter could be heard from the female family members through the screen. The fourth prince was surrounded by five grown men, including Uncle Qi.

The plan to make friends failed again, and the corner of his mouth twitched fiercely.

After finally holding on until the end of the dinner, Luo Xi picked up her little apprentice and left amid the reluctant eyes of the family.

When they arrived outside the mansion, the two parties said goodbye. The fourth prince seized the opportunity to step forward and said, "Brother Luo, I will see you off."

The Qi family stared angrily, but Luo Xi had a strange expression, "My home is outside the city, and the prince's palace is in the next street. How can you send me away?"

Zhan Ting's handsome face froze, but he quickly returned to his natural state, "What a coincidence! This prince is going to stay at Huangzhuang for a short stay recently."

It means going the same way.

Qi Rui cursed in a low voice: "Shameless."

Luo Xi nodded, "Then go quickly. I'm going to visit a friend in the next street. It's a pity that I can't go with the Fourth Prince."

The regret on his lips and the naked joking in his eyes seemed to say, "You continue to make it up, and we'll make it up at the same time."

The fourth prince, who had never been humiliated like this before, looked deeply at Luo Xi and said with a pun:

"I heard that your third uncle married the concubine of my prince's wet nurse. We are somewhat distantly related. I hope Mr. Luo will not refuse my prince's invitation next time."

After saying that, he stepped onto the carriage in one step.

The nanny he mentioned was the wife of the magistrate of Nan'an Prefecture, and there was a hint of threat in it. Luo Xi sneered. She wished that someone would help her take care of the best of the family.

Qi Si looked at the carriage in the distance with deep eyes. Was he eyeing his sister?

He withdrew his gaze and told Luo Xi, "Don't pay attention. Big brother won't let him bother you. Go ahead. Eunuch Laixi is waiting for you around the corner."
