Someone suggested that everyone move to the imperial garden to enjoy the moon, and the emperor agreed when he was happy.It is much more comfortable in the imperial garden than in the main hall.

Xiao Xi took advantage of the time when Chu Lingtian was called away by the emperor, and went to find his father.

"The most controversial person in the court recently is Leng Yuan. Some people saw that he had a close relationship with the prince of the Southern Kingdom, and he was suspected of collaborating with the enemy and traitor."

Xiao Xi knew this before.

"What did father think?"

"I will not speak out about this matter, but the specifics still depend on the evidence. Xi'er, you are in Prince Hao's mansion, how is Prince Hao treating you?" Xiao Yan asked worriedly.

"Father, don't worry, I can still protect myself. I just hope that my father can stand correctly when he chooses, otherwise it will cause unnecessary trouble." Xiao Xi instructed.

Xiao Yan nodded, "By the way, the group of assassins who assassinated King Hao at the hunting conference last time have been found out, and they are spies sent by the Southern Kingdom."

Xiao Xi raised his eyes, "Are you actually from the southern country? The prince didn't tell me."

"That's why I said that Leng Yuan is very dangerous now. Xi'er, you have been out for a long time, go back quickly, lest the prince find you."

"En." Xiao Xi bowed heavily to his father and left.

Back at the original position, before Chu Haotian came back, Xiao Xi drank alone.

Looking around, I didn't see Leng Yuan today, it seems that he didn't come over.

"Princess Hao." Xiao Xi was taken aback for a moment, and few people called him like that.

"My father is Li Shangshu, who writes books and annotates the classics in the academy." The visitor saluted Xiao Xi, "Oh, he is the son of Li Shangshu's family." Xiao Xi nodded slightly to him politely.

"Just now I saw Princess Hao's painting, it really has ingenious workmanship, I really admire it."

"It's really clumsy, I really dare not take it as it is."

……

It seems that Mr. Li came here for a chat because he liked Xiao Xi's paintings.The two chatted politely, and Young Master Li left.

After Mr. Li left, Xiao Xi was able to be quiet for a while, when a ten-year-old girl jumped up and down in front of him.

"You are brother Xiao Xi?" The little girl looked at Xiao Xi with watery eyes.

"Well, which family's girl are you from?" Which family's daughter is such an energetic girl?

"Ting'er, what do you call him?" Chu Haotian just came back.

"I call him Brother Xiao Xi." The little girl looked at Chu Haotian puzzled, "Uncle, don't I call him right?"

Chu Haotian squatted down and patted her little head, "He is your uncle and my princess, you should call him aunt."

The little girl curled her lips slightly, "I don't want it, brother Xiao Xi is a man, so I will call him brother Xiao Xi."

"Is she the princess' daughter?" Xiao Xi raised her eyes and asked Chu Haotian.

Chu Haotian nodded.

The eldest son, Chu Xuan, is the elder sister of Chu Haotian and the current emperor, who married Su Zhan, the number one scholar at that time, more than ten years ago.

"Brother Xiao Xi, you look so good-looking." Su Tingting looked at Xiao Xi with bright eyes.

"No matter how beautiful it is, it's still mine?" Chu Haotian raised an eyebrow at Su Tingting, "Your mother is looking for you, why don't you go back soon."

Su Tingting curled her lips, "Uncle Hao, you really hate me." After speaking, she ran away, looking like she was about to go back and complain.

Chu Haotian never liked dealing with these children.

"We will rest in the palace tonight and return to the mansion early tomorrow morning."

"Yes."

It was already very late after the banquet, Chu Haotian took Xiao Xi to the bedroom where he used to live, where the things that Chu Haotian used before were still kept.

Xiao Xi flipped through it with a little interest.

"Xiao Xi, come here." Chu Haotian called him from the other side.

Xiao Xi walked over and saw him flipping through the books he had read before.Thinking about it, Chu Haotian was also a good bookman before, but after years of fighting abroad, his literary spirit was worn away.

"Xiao Xi, everyone says you are a genius, why don't you show me some poems you wrote when you were young?"

"I only know a thing or two, and I'm afraid it's far behind the prince. I heard that the prince was very gifted when he was young. He always learns things quickly and has a strong ability to comprehend things." Xiao Xi said sincerely.

Chu Haotian chuckled, "That was blown by someone who wanted to flatter you before, but it can be heard in your ears. Then tell me, what other rumors about me have you heard?"

Xiao Xi stopped talking, "What does the lord want to hear? I can tell the lord the rumors in the market."

"Xiao Xi, can't I listen to you say something that makes me feel comfortable? Before I heard half a sentence, you blocked me again with words." Chu Haotian shook his head and said helplessly.

The corner of Xiao Xi's mouth couldn't help but curl up, "I didn't do it on purpose."

"I know, you did it on purpose." Chu Haotian reached out and pinched his face.He had seen that Chen Xuanming do this to him, and now he also did this, and he finally felt like he was breaking back.

In short, Chu Haotian was in a very upset mood at that time, and he didn't bother to find out why.

Xiao Xi was stunned, his face froze for a moment, and he quickly relaxed again.

"It's getting late, let's go rest."

"Ah."

This time Xiao Xi did not answer "yes", but responded with "um".Drooping his eyelids, he couldn't explain the harmonious atmosphere lingering on the two of them at this time.

The two returned to the house the next morning.Xiao Xi stayed in the mansion for only half a minute, and the palace sent another person over.

Zhang Xinling, the daughter of Zhang Bingyao, an important minister under the imperial censor's staff, married into Hao Wang's mansion and became Hao Wang's wife.

Xiao Xi suddenly remembered that yesterday he asked which daughter was the best looking, so it turned out that Zhang Xinling was the one he was looking for?

Zhang Xinling, of course she knows, is an absolutely ruthless character.In terms of her level of scheming, she is definitely above Guilin.

Chu Haotian actually didn't know about it, he thought for a while before finding out the way, and said helplessly, "It seems that the trouble that Brother Huang doesn't want is pushed to me again."

Xiao Xi looked up at him, and Chu Haotian naturally caught his gaze.

"Congratulations, Princess, another person has joined your management." Chu Haotian joked happily.

"It should be me who congratulates the lord and has won another wife."

"Do I want to say, Tongxi?" Chu Haotian raised his eyebrows.

Xiao Xi shut his mouth and didn't want to speak anymore.

In the afternoon of that day, Zhang Xinling was carried into the Prince Hao's Mansion in a group of people carrying sedan chairs.

Chu Haotian found it troublesome when he looked at it from afar, so he told Xiao Xi to take care of him and went into the study.

"Where is the prince?" Zhang Xinling looked for the prince as soon as she came out, ignoring Xiao Xi.It seemed impolite, but in fact he didn't put him in his eyes.

Xiao Xi felt it was funny in his heart, but he couldn't show it on the surface.

"My lord is too busy to come out, so I will take Mrs. Xinling to the courtyard where I arranged for you."

Zhang Xinling glanced at Xiao Xi, "Okay, I want to live in the courtyard closest to the prince's bedroom."

Xiao Xi smiled lightly, with contempt flashing in his eyes, "The courtyard closest to the prince is the prince's study, followed by the old lady's courtyard. Where do you want to live?"

"I..." Zhang Xinling became very angry when someone blocked her.

Xiao Xi's face turned cold, "I am the princess of Prince Hao's Mansion, and you are Mrs. Xinling who just came in. Madam seems to be very ignorant of the rules in the mansion. First, she didn't salute me or address me when she came in; second, she didn't care about the rules of the mansion. Third, "said" Xiao Xi glanced at her, "doesn't look like a wife at all!If you don't keep these three rules well, I'm afraid you won't be able to see the prince. "

"Are you threatening me? Why? My father is an important official under the imperial censor!"

"Yes, then do you want to invite your father over?" Xiao Xi said lightly.

"You!" Zhang Xinling became impatient.

Xiao Xi stared at her with cold eyes.

Zhang Xinling finally realized her situation at this moment.

"Yes, princess, Xinling just entered the mansion, and she doesn't understand the rules of the mansion, I hope the princess will forgive me." Zhang Xinling finally relaxed her tone, but she could still hear a little resignation.

Xiao Xi didn't bother to argue with her anymore, if it wasn't for what she did just now, Xiao Xi wouldn't be serious.

"Mother Cai, take Mrs. Xinling to her dormitory."

"Yes."

Xiao Xi returned to Yafeng Pavilion after dealing with it. He was so tired that he didn't want to care about it anymore.

And this matter also reached Chu Haotian's ears.

"It seems that this Xinling is really not easy, it can make our thousand-year-old Princess Hao angry." Chu Haotian couldn't help teasing.

Luo Yue who was standing beside him was still expressionless.

"My lord, I'm back." Little Taozi rushed in, looking for water as soon as he came in.

"Oh, what's the matter?" Xiao Xi who was reading a book looked up at him.

"Young master asked me to investigate the land where Mr. Zhao is going to develop the hot springs. I followed Mr. Xuan Ming to see it, and everything Mr. Zhao said was in line with what Mr. Zhao said. The construction started in a few days. Mr. Xuan Ming will take care of it. You don't have to worry too much about it. Too worried."

Xiao Xi nodded, "That's good."

"My lord, did anything happen during the two days Tao Zi left? Has anyone bullied you?"

Xiao Xi raised her eyebrows, "You think I'm easy to bully, your son?"

"That's good, I'm afraid that some people don't know what's interesting." Tao Zi sat down and gnawed on the apples on the table, and told Xiao Xi what he had seen and heard in the past two days while he gnawed.

To build and develop what Zhao Youjing wanted in the plan, it would take at least four to five months to start construction, during which Zhao Youjing fully supervised the construction.

There are fewer people to guard the Xijing Court, and Xiao Xi will go to have a look when he is free.

Zhang Xinling often came to pester him, it seemed that every time she went to see Chu Haotian, she would hit a wall, and the prince would not want to see her.She has been in the mansion for five or six days, but she has never seen the prince.

Xiao Xi just said it casually that day, who knew that the prince really did this, Zhang Xinling thought it was him who did it.Xiao Xi really felt that he was wronged.

"My lord, if you don't see Zhang Xinling again, my Yafeng Pavilion will be demolished by her." Xiao Xi looked helplessly at the man sitting on his desk approving official documents.

"It's okay, if you tear it down, you can move to my Yawu Pavilion." Chu Haotian said without raising his head.

You're fine, but I've been hated.Xiao Xi muttered in his heart.

In the past few days, all the wives have come back one after another, and Gui Lin's side concubine has also returned.When she heard that there was another wife in the mansion, Gui Lin's concubine's face turned green.

And this person is still a colleague of his father.
