After returning from rebirth, the eldest sister of Hou family destroyed her household registration b

The twists and turns of the corridor provide you with a view every step of the way.

In the prince's residence, Chu Huanyan was led into the back garden, and Yun Chen followed behind holding two boxes.

When I went out today, Xian Yue was walking well when she suddenly sprained my foot. Although it was not serious, it was somewhat red, swollen and painful.

So Chu Huanyan asked her to stay at home to rest and brought Yun Chen over.

This was Chu Huanyan's first visit to the Prince's Mansion. Looking at the surrounding scenery, she felt that it was more elegant than she imagined.

"Ms. Chu is here to greet you. Miss Chu is so welcome. Don't be surprised." By the lake in the back garden, Xiao Jinzhi lazily leaned on the rocking chair, smiling with peach blossom eyes, as if he was pretending to be a wealthy idler. The mountain spirits and ghosts in the game world.

"It's my daughter who is harassing His Highness the Crown Prince." Chu Huanyan said happily.

After getting up, he signaled Yun Chen to deliver the box he was holding.

"This is a small gift, but I hope His Highness the Crown Prince will not find it objectionable."

Xiao Jinzhi glanced at Qin Li, who stepped forward to take it, opened it and saw two jade ornaments inside.

One emerald jade, one white jade, not particularly good, but not bad either.

When used as a gift, it is not expensive enough to please people, but it also does not make people feel indifferent and unpleasant.

"Miss Chu, this gift is quite decent. It seems that you didn't really come here to please me today in order to get me to let Chu Ziyuan go." Xiao Jinzhi pointed out with a smile.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is in charge of Dali Temple. Naturally, I am here to ask His Highness to show mercy. However, I also know that this matter is related to the court's laws after all, so I do not dare to expect His Highness to help." Chu Huanyan looked calm. , with a calm tone.

Xiao Jinzhi asked curiously as he looked at Chu Huanyan's expression that almost had the words "going through the motions" written on her face.

"Aren't you afraid that Miss Chu will spread Miss Chu's true attitude alone?"

"Would His Highness the Crown Prince do this?" Chu Huanyan asked without answering.

After a moment of silence, Xiao Jinzhi smiled.

"That's all." His eyes fell on the pair of ornaments. He waved to Qin Li and told him to put the things away. "Miss Chu, I just accepted this thing. It's just that Gu is always fair and strict, and won't Because he is Miss Chu’s brother, he bends the law for personal gain.”

This was the first time Chu Huanyan came to visit him. Seeing that he was in a really good mood today, he helped Chu Huanyan perform this act.

Chu Huanyan withdrew her gaze and blessed Fu Shen again, "Thank you, Your Highness. In this case, I will leave first."

"Miss Chu, why don't you stay and have a cup of tea." Xiao Jinzhi stopped Chu Huanyan, "After all...if anyone outside the Prince's Mansion caught a glimpse of Miss Chu leaving the house so quickly, I'm afraid they would think that Miss Chu's pleas were not enough. With all your heart.”

Before Chu Huanyan responded, Xiao Jinzhi had already asked someone to serve tea.

After signaling Chu Huanyan to sit down, Xiao Jinzhi's eyes fell on Yun Chen behind Chu Huanyan.

"It seems that Miss Chu really values ​​this guard Yun and follows him everywhere."

I had sent people to investigate Yun Chen's details before, but the strange thing was that except for the fact that the other party had appeared in Jiangnan, almost no information was found.

This person seemed to appear out of nowhere.

There was no emotion or anger on Yunchen's face, and when he felt Xiao Jinzhi's gaze, he just stood there quietly, not squinting.

Chu Huanyan glanced at the two of them separately and said, "Your Highness, although Yun Chen is a guard, he has saved the life of my daughter, so if he has offended or been rude, I hope His Highness will forgive me."

Yun Chen quickly frowned.

A life-saving grace?

If he was talking about life-saving grace, it was also from the young lady to him.

The lady said this deliberately to protect him?

The frown disappeared, and an extremely imperceptible smile appeared at the corner of Yun Chen's mouth.

Xiao Jinzhi was also muttering these words in his heart.

A life-saving grace...

"Miss Chu specifically emphasizes, are you worried about what Gu will do to you as a guard? In Miss Chu's eyes, does Gu just follow his temper and punish others at will?" When he said the last sentence, Xiao Jinzhi's tone became slightly colder.

"I don't dare." Chu Huanyan stood up, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince misunderstood. I was just worried that he didn't understand the rules and would be rude, so I wanted to explain."

Xiao Jinzhi felt helpless as he looked at Chu Huanyan, who immediately apologized to him with just one sentence.

"Everyone in the imperial city knows that Gu has always liked beauties, and they will not blame or anger beauties at will. But it seems that Miss Chu doesn't know this clearly enough."

Chu Huanyan raised her head and met Xiao Jinzhi's gaze, "Your Highness is Your Highness after all, and I don't dare to overstep my bounds."

Their eyes met, Xiao Jinzhi couldn't understand the emotions in Chu Huanyan's eyes.

Is it fear? Not like that.

Is it respectful? It seems to be something more than respectful.

Sometimes these eyes seemed to be looking through him, towards the self that Chu Huanyan imagined in her mind.

However, he didn't know what that self looked like.

"Forget it, sit down." Xiao Jinzhi waved his hand, "It was just a casual comment, Miss Chu, don't be nervous."

"Yes." Chu Huanyan responded and sat down again.

In a moment, the tea has arrived.

However, the person who served the tea was not a maid, but a young man who looked ordinary but had a good temperament.

"Your Highness, this is a herbal tea that I have newly researched. I heard that Your Highness has guests here, so I sent it here specially for Your Highness and the guests to have a taste."

"Doctor Shen, are you trying to trick someone into trying tea for you again?" Xiao Jinzhi tilted his head and raised his eyebrows, "If you don't want to drink it, take it off."

"Your Highness, I have improved the formula this time to ensure that it is not only beneficial to the body, but also tastes great and has a long-lasting fragrance." There was a hint of coaxing in Shen Chi's tone.

After saying that, not only did he not obey the order and take the tea away, but he first placed a cup in Xiao Jinzhi's hand, then turned around and placed another cup in front of Chu Huanyan.

"This young lady might as well have a taste."

"Thank you Shen..." Before Chu Huanyan finished speaking, she was suddenly stunned when her eyes met Shen Chi's eyes.

How could he be so familiar? It's like... that big customer from the previous life.

But the other person clearly looked like a middle-aged man at the time, and his appearance was different from this person's. But these eyes are really the same.

"Miss Chu, what's wrong?" Xiao Jinzhi asked.

Chu Huanyan came back to her senses and shook her head, "My daughter is fine, but Doctor Shen looks... familiar."

"Looks familiar?" Shen Chi was stunned for a moment, then stretched out his hand to touch his face, "It shouldn't be, I just changed my face this morning."

Chu Huanyan raised her eyebrows inwardly, changing her face? Disguise?

"Miss Chu, don't be offended. This guy likes to tinker with ways to change his face." Xiao Jinzhi glanced at Shen Chi, and then added, "Also, he makes some particularly unpleasant medicinal tea. "

"Your Highness, I have improved the formula. This cup is guaranteed to leave a lasting fragrance on your lips and teeth!" Shen Chi immediately argued.

"Haha!" Xiao Jinzhi looked unbelieving.

Shen Chi choked for a moment, then looked at Chu Huanyan again, "Miss Chu, do you want to give it a try?"

"Shen Chi, don't cause trouble here..."

"Okay, thank you."

The voices of Xiao Jinzhi and Chu Huanyan sounded almost at the same time.

The latter stretched out his hand and took the cup of tea handed over by Shen Chi. Taking the opportunity to get a little closer, I could smell the freshness mixed with a bit of bitterness on his body.

Sure enough it was him!
