The Empire and the Kingdom
Chapter 11 The Crying Fox
Feng Jingsu supported her chin with one hand, and looked at Xue Ai's smiling face, which was exactly the same as what she remembered.That's what the little fox should look like, but it's a little less cunning.
"Xiao Ai." She called out suddenly, which startled Xue Ai.
"Sister Su, did you call me?" Xue Ai asked uncertainly.
"Of course, there is something I want to ask you." Feng Jingsu suddenly became serious.
Xue Ai's eyes widened from nervousness, Feng Jingsu's heart gradually softened with her obedient and cute appearance. "You pretended to be like this all these years, why on earth?"
Xue Ai's eyes began to wander, she knew that this would arouse Feng Jingsu's suspicion, but she had no better way. "I just don't want to fight with my family."
"The Xiao Ai I know is smart and cunning, and she cheats the dead without paying for her life. As for your four older sisters and your mother who is not stingy, who is your opponent? You can definitely live better in this family." Feng Jingsu I feel that Xue Ai's ability to deceive people has weakened, and such an obvious lie can be heard as soon as he hears it.
Xue Ai lowered her head, "They are my family after all, I can't lie to everyone, can I?" The more she said this, the more guilty she felt.
"Do you want to make up a better reason?" Feng Jingsu said coldly.
Xue Ai raised her head and asked timidly, "Sister Su, are you angry?"
"I just want to hear the truth." She reached out and took Xue Ai's hand, "It's so cold!"
Xue Ai subconsciously wanted to withdraw her hand, but Feng Jingsu grabbed her even tighter.
"Xiao Ai, are you waiting for me?" Feng Jingsu obviously felt Xue Ai's hands trembling after saying this.
"Su...Sister Su, you...you are right, I...I am waiting for you to come back. I have an engagement with the crown prince, I...I want you to attend my wedding." Xue Ai's voice From the trembling at the beginning to the gradual stabilization later, the trembling in the hands also stopped.
Feng Jingsu smiled, "If you dare to look me in the eyes and repeat what you just said, I will believe you."
Xue Ai raised her eyes, her eyes were full of Feng Jingsu's beautiful but cold face, which coincided with the Feng Jingsu in her impression, and it was at that time that her heart fell on the woman in front of her.I racked my brains to get rid of fate, I wanted to wait until she came back, I wanted to stay by her side, even if it was just pure company.
She came back, but now she is the future prince and side concubine. Do I really have the right to say those words?
"Hey, why are you crying?" Xue Ai didn't even realize that tears were streaming down his face.At this moment Feng Jingsu pulled her into his arms and comforted her softly.
"Sister Su is a bully!" Xue Ai held her breath in her heart, and she couldn't breathe it out, and her heart ached a lot.She cried even more fiercely, tears and snot all streaming down her nose, regardless of her image.
"Okay, I bullied you, be good, don't cry." Feng Jingsu frantically coaxed the little fox.This is really a rare situation for her.In the academy, although there are many girls, the peer she really cares about is actually the junior sister Gu Li, and Gu Li is a child who doesn't like to cry.So... how to coax a crying girl?Feng Jingsu really didn't know how to do this question.
Xue Ai cried until his eyes were swollen, and he couldn't open them due to the heat.She was tired from crying, so she nestled in Feng Jingsu's arms and refused to look up.Feng Jingsu didn't dare to ask any more questions now, seeing her rubbing her eyes non-stop, holding her face up for a closer look, "It's all swollen."
Xue Ai raised her head and saw Feng Jingsu's hands covering her eyes, which felt cool and made her eyes feel much more comfortable.
"Why is Sister Su's hand so cold? It's like ice." She asked.
"Do you understand martial arts? The martial arts I practice are cold and cold. Don't move around, just apply it to your eyes for a while and it will be fine."
"Oh." Sure enough, Xue Ai didn't move around anymore, time passed bit by bit, the room was warm and quiet, and before he knew it, Xue Ai fell asleep.
Feng Jingsu withdrew her hand covering her eyes, hugged her to the bed and covered her with the quilt, and rubbed her fingers on that delicate and beautiful face, how much wronged did the little fox suffer to cry so hard? "Don't be afraid, there will be me in the future."
When she went out, she saw Meng An biting her handkerchief with a tangled expression on her face, wanting to enter but not daring to enter, "Your lady is asleep, no matter how much you hear about today, you are not allowed to speak out. Don't let anyone know." I have been here to take good care of your young lady, it is to your benefit."
"Yes, this servant will send the princess out." Meng An leaned over and said.
"No need." After the three words came out, Meng An only felt a blur in front of her eyes, and when she looked up again, there was no figure of Feng Jingsu in front of her eyes?She was so frightened that she took a step back and leaned against the wall, wondering if this princess is a ghost?
Feng Jingsu returned to the palace and changed her clothes when she realized that the question she was about to ask was fooled by this little fox after Xue Ai cried so much today. It seemed that she still had to find a chance to ask.
The crown prince patrolling the embankment quickly made progress. As soon as the prince arrived on the embankment, he found several problems, and a small section of the embankment broke. The prince was furious, dealt with the relevant officials vigorously, and then In front of him, he showed that he promised on behalf of the court that he must build a strong embankment.This move won the praise of many people. The prince went back to Beijing first to urge the Ministry of Households to transfer the money, but he was actually unwilling to guard the embankment.
The emperor appreciated the prince's thunderous means of doing things very much, and deliberately gave many rewards.The prince didn't eat alone, and picked out a lot of good things, some of which were sent to the Queen's Palace, and the other part was secretly sent to Shenhe Palace.
It is very difficult to completely hide the affairs of the palace from the queen.The queen asked about the prince's gift to Feng Jingsu, and the prince told him about Feng Jingsu's advice.The queen nodded after hearing this, "Prince, it's always good to have one more person who is willing to help you. However, I still want to remind you that Yun Yi has just returned to the palace, and there are many actions. It doesn't seem to be a worry-free one. She I have learned some skills outside, so I have a big heart. I am probably not satisfied with just being a princess and getting married, but I want to be a counselor who assists the king. Prince, counselors can be used, but be careful not to let her turn into a client, bad Your great cause of succession."
The queen sent four people to Shenhe Palace, and the two nuns were sent back. The two maids were imprisoned in Shenhe Palace, and they did nothing. This Princess Yunyi should not be underestimated.
I have to say that the queen has been in the harem for so many years, she has seen a lot, her mind is clear, and she is still very accurate in judging people.
The crown prince nodded in agreement, and felt that what the queen said was reasonable. He and Feng Jingsu hadn't had much time together yet, so he still had to take a good look at this younger sister's behavior.
The things the crown prince sent were all women's favorite jewelry. Feng Jingsu's ambition was in the previous dynasty, so she didn't care about these things.
"Princess, but you want to put all these things away?" Cuidie knew that her master didn't like these things.
"Wait a minute, I'll pick a few as gifts." Although she doesn't like them, they are all good things, so it's a pity to put them in the bottom of the box.
After picking and choosing, Cuidie also gave some suggestions. Feng Jingsu finally picked a pair of white jade beads, a pearl bracelet and a pair of jadeite bracelets.Cuidie wrapped it carefully with silk, took a small wooden box and put it in front of Feng Jingsu.
"Okay, you go rest, I'll go out of the palace." Feng Jingsu got up and changed into night clothes, took the small wooden box and went out through the window.
Cuidie shook her head, packed her things and went back to her room.
Xue Ai just finished practicing her handwriting today, and her handwriting is the best among the five young ladies, because although Prime Minister Xue doesn't care much about the affairs of the back house, he still cares more about the handwriting of his daughters.Xue Xiang's calligraphy is hard to come by in the court. If the daughters' calligraphy is too outrageous, it will be ridiculous and generous.Therefore, the handwriting of the five ladies of the Xue family are all top-notch among the ladies in the capital, but Xue Ai's handwriting is better.
The other four were also convinced of this. After practicing hard for a while, Xue Ying still couldn't keep up with Xue Ai, so she stopped practicing. Anyway, she was better than Sanmei in everything, and it didn't matter if she was a little worse at writing.It's not the exam for the number one scholar, what do you want such a good word for?
"Miss, it's late at night, don't write any more, your eyes hurt." Meng An came over and took away the pen and ink and other things.As soon as he turned around, he saw a black figure pushing the door in. The movement was so natural, as if he was following his own home.
Fortunately, Meng'an's eyes are good, even though Feng Jingsu is wearing night clothes this time, she still recognizes it.She glanced back at Xue Ai, and after receiving the master's gaze, she saluted Feng Jingsu, and went out to lock the door without waiting for orders.
"You maidservant is becoming more and more sensible." Feng Jingsu came over and sat down, "You still not sleeping at this late hour?"
"How can I see Sister Su when I'm asleep?" Last time, she was a little ashamed of howling and crying, and Xue Ai felt ashamed to see Feng Jingsu when she thought of that incident.
"Stop crying?" Sure enough, Feng Jingsu picked up which pot he didn't open.
"Sister Su..." Xue Ai was not an easy-going lamp, she was pulling Feng Jingsu's skirt and acting coquettishly.
"It's fine if you don't cry." Feng Jingsu didn't intend to dwell on the previous topic.Anyway, she will be able to find out what this girl is thinking sooner or later.She put the small wooden box in her hand on the table, opened the lid, and pushed it in front of Xue Ai.
No matter how you say it, Xue Ai is the daughter of the Xiangfu, and she can guess what is wrapped in the silk.
"For me?" She reached out and lifted the silk, and saw the jewelry inside.
"I did a little favor for the prince before. He got a reward and gave me some. I don't like these things, so it's just right for you." Feng Jingsu picked up the Pearl Walker and inserted it on Xue Ai's head.
Looking at the beauty under the lamp, of course, no matter how you look at it, you will feel moved.
Feng Jingsu's hands stopped, what was she thinking?
"Does it look good?" Xue Ai looked at Feng Jingsu staring at him without speaking, and his cheeks turned red again.
"It looks good, whatever you wear looks good." Feng Jingsu withdrew her hand.
Xue Ai took off the step shaker and put it in the box, "Sister Su, thank you for remembering me. But these gifts are too expensive, I can't accept them." Seeing Feng Jingsu's frown, she hurriedly continued: "You gave me these things I just hope that I can take them with me, but these things are not ordinary products, and it would be another disturbance if my mother and sisters see them. So I can’t take them.” She closed the small wooden box and pushed it back in front of Feng Jingsu .
The author has something to say: the epidemic is getting worse, everyone must protect themselves!
Wishing the little angels a new year in advance, I wish everyone good luck in the Year of the Rat, and good health!By the way, I have a terrible idea, I want to explode for a month, do you agree?Of course you agreed, it depends on my codeword situation in the next year and whether I can enter v smoothly.
"Xiao Ai." She called out suddenly, which startled Xue Ai.
"Sister Su, did you call me?" Xue Ai asked uncertainly.
"Of course, there is something I want to ask you." Feng Jingsu suddenly became serious.
