Fingers of crossing

A good reception banquet, finally broke up unhappy.

Empress Ning couldn't vent her depression, so she had to punish the instigator, Yang Simi, to contemplate behind closed doors for three months before the farce ended in a hurry.

On the way back to the East Palace, Jiang Ning sat drunkenly on the phoenix chariot. She raised her head and glanced at Yan Junyao on the jade chariot in front of her, her heart was disturbed.

The phoenix chariot stopped outside the Zhaoling Hall. Jiang Ningzui had just stepped off the phoenix chariot when she looked up and saw Yan Junyao smiling elegantly at her, then turned and walked into the hall first.Watching Yan Junyao's figure slowly disappearing into the brightly lit hall, Jiang Ningzui's footsteps sank, and finally followed slowly.

Lu He and Chi Zhu, who were staying in the hall, saw Yan Junyao, saluted quickly, and walked up to meet the figures of Yan Junyao and Jiang Ningzui.

Lu He took the shawl from Yan Junyao's shoulders, and then asked respectfully, "Does Your Highness want to stay overnight?"

Jiang Ningzui paused as soon as she stepped into the palace gate, her mind was full of thoughts, her face was still calm, and she walked to Yan Junyao's side.

In fact, it's not like I never thought about these things.

It is an indisputable fact that she transmigrated into the body of the Crown Princess of Yan Country, so the days after the Crown Prince's return to the palace were as thoughtful as hers, so it was naturally expected one by one.However, even if she slowly accepts this ridiculous change, can she also accept the princess' life of following the rules?

"No need." Yan Junyao didn't check Jiang Ningzui's mind, just smiled and brushed his sleeves, and said: "You all step back first."

After dismissing the idlers in the hall, Yan Junyao turned around and looked at Jiang Ningzui who was still standing in front of the hall door, and said with a smile, "Come and sit."

The expression in Yan Junyao's eyes was gentle and gentle, like the brightest starlight in the sky, shining gently in the silent night.Jiang Ningzui nodded to meet Yan Junyao's gaze, walked over to him and sat down.

Yan Junyao's eyes fell on Jiang Ningzui's body just right, neither making people feel frivolous nor disgusting. He carefully sized Jiang Ningzui for a moment, and his eyes stopped on the overly delicate golden phoenix ball in her hair. The smile on the corner of his mouth froze, and then he moved his eyes away calmly.

"After returning to the palace, I specially sent a message to the imperial physician who treated you, and asked about your situation in detail." Yan Junyao said while pouring hot tea for Jiang Ningzui himself, his voice was mellow like a cup of fine wine, revealing With a lingering pampering tone. "The imperial doctor said that your amnesia is only temporary. I will tell you about our affairs slowly after I finish my political affairs in a few days."

If Jiang Ningzui could still deal with Yan Yilan's banter and teasing calmly, but now facing the prince who is always gentle and personable in words and deeds, she doesn't know what to do.Silently carrying the cup, Jiang Ningzui took a sip of the tea, nodded and said, "Please don't worry, Prince."

Jiang Ningzui's attitude has always been alienated, with more than humility but not enough intimacy, and she looks like she rejects people thousands of miles away.Yan Junyao was surprised for a while, then he thought for a moment, and said clearly: "Just now in the Hanliang Palace, the reason why I sent Chen'er to the side concubine was just because I was worried that your body has not recovered, so don't think too much about it." , it’s important to take good care of yourself.”

Jiang Ningzui's words and deeds are alienated and indifferent, but it's just her nature. She didn't want to misunderstand the prince. She smiled lightly, with a little helplessness hidden between her brows, "I understand."

Yan Junyao looked sideways at Jiang Ning's drunken smile reflected in the lights, and couldn't help being slightly dazed.Although he had faintly noticed that Jiang Ningzui's attitude was too indifferent in the Hanliang Palace just now, but up to this moment, he looked at her cold and indifferent smile even when she smiled, and he could hardly distinguish her from the submissive Jiang Ningzui before. Treat them equally.

Joyful because of one of his smiles, delighted by a word of concern, Jiang Ningzui, who is always looking at him with fascination, the humble and cowardly woman he loved in his memory seems to be really like ashes in the wind, never to be found again .

When Yan Junyao came back to his senses, what he saw was Jiang Ningzui's face without any emotion, and the old shadow in his memory was really just a bubble, fleeting.Wrestling from his thoughts, Yan Junyao smiled considerately at Jiang Ningzui, "You must be tired too, take a good rest tonight, and I will find time to come and see you tomorrow."

As Yan Junyao said, he hesitated for a moment when he stood up, and then lowered his head to look at Jiang Ningzui again. I don't know if it was because he was standing against the light, but his blurred face always gave Jiang Ningzui an illusion of depression. "As for Miss Huang, I have no choice but to ask you to go there in person tomorrow to pick up Chen'er back."

Jiang Ningzui stood up following Yan Junyao, and replied in a low voice: "Yes."

After seeing off the prince, Jiang Ningzui sat in front of the dressing table and started to untie the heavy accessories on her head. She turned her head and saw Luhe rushing in, with a pouting mouth. Unable to hide his words, he asked, "Your Majesty, why don't you keep the crown prince overnight?"

Jiang Ningzui was a little funny, she didn't answer, but asked softly: "Where will the prince stay tonight?"

Unexpectedly, Jiang Ningzui would ask herself back, Lu He was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "Where else can it be, isn't it in Shaohua Palace."

Jiang Ningzui vaguely remembered that the Shaohua Palace was the bedroom of the side concubine, Liu Huanxue's smiling face jumped out of her mind, Jiang Ningzui looked back at the Linghua mirror, and said lightly: "It seems that the prince likes the side concubine very much."

"The side concubine's concubine dotes on the crown of the East Palace, and the prince loves her alone. Even on the wedding night of the concubine, the prince..." Lu He has always been straightforward, not as cautious as Qing Fu and Chi Zhu, she said it all in one go Feeling bad, he quickly lowered his head and shut his mouth.

It's just that this can't escape Jiang Ningzui's ears. She looked sideways at Lu He, her voice was very soft, but it concealed a bottomless coldness. "I'm not forcing you, I just want to ask you a question, just answer me truthfully."

Hearing that Jiang Ningzui didn't blame her for being too talkative, and didn't force her to ask what she was going to say, Lu He hurriedly nodded and said, "Yes."

"Has the prince never stayed overnight in Zhaoling Palace?"

This is not a question of pressure, Luhe kept complaining, which was obviously more serious than forcing her.Lu He bit her lips and dared not answer, but couldn't stand Jiang Ningzui's cold, tortured gaze, so she raised her hands in surrender, and nodded obediently.

Lu He originally thought that Jiang Ningzui would be sad and discouraged when she found out about this, but Jiang Ningzui just smiled, her eyes still vaguely revealed the relaxed and at ease after knowing it, without the slightest look of loss.

Madam, are you not sad?

Lu He really wanted to ask this question, but just looking at Jiang Ningzui's expression, all the answers seemed to be obvious.

Yes, her good lady is indeed not sad, and she is even stingy with giving a little disappointed expression.

The next day, Jiang Ning had eaten too much breakfast, and Qing Fu came up to tell her that Feng Ren was waiting outside the hall and could leave at any time.

Jiang Ningzui's expression sank, she didn't say anything, she just stood up coldly, changed into simple clothes, and led Qingfu out of Zhaoling Hall.

"Sister-in-law."

As soon as he walked out of the hall, he suddenly heard footsteps accompanied by the call, and when Jiang Ningzui followed the prestige, the man had already walked in front of him.

The person who came was an extremely handsome man, with sword eyebrows and star eyes, and his actions were elegant and willful, very romantic.There are some similarities with Yan Junyao in his eyebrows, but compared to Yan Junyao's elegance and jade, he seems much more uninhibited.

"Six princes."

Qingfu saluted respectfully, Yan Junhe nodded indifferently when he heard the words, then looked at Jiang Ningzui, and said with a smile: "Where is the emperor's sister-in-law going, where is the prince?"

"The prince is in the Shaohua Palace, so I guess he should wake up now." Jiang Ningzui said, and said to Yan Jun, "I need to go to Fengyi Palace if I have something to do. Sixth Prince, please go ahead."

When Yan Junhe heard this, there was a little contempt and disgust in his brows, which finally melted into a smile. He smiled and said, "Then sister-in-law, go slowly." After finishing speaking, he cupped his hands and walked towards the Shaohua Palace , seemed unwilling to say one more word with Jiang Ningzui, and only left him a back view.

Outside the gate of Fengyi Palace, Jiang Ningzui saw Bi Yuan waiting outside the palace from a distance, saw Jiang Ningzui and his group, and immediately greeted them respectfully.

"See the princess."

Jiang Ningzui looked down at Biyuan and said calmly, "Get up."

"The eldest princess has just finished the morning court and is resting in the Qiluan Hall."

Jiang Ningzui didn't speak, but just waved her hands to show her understanding. The phoenix chariot followed Bi Yuan all the way into the Fengyi Palace, and finally stopped outside the Qiluan Hall.

Outside the Qiluan Hall, the peach blossoms from one tree to the other were scorching, and there was a touch of red makeup in the snow-white world. Jiang Ningzui walked up the steps along the peach blossoms on both sides.

Hanging wood as beams, surrounded by aloes, and the fragrance of the incense burner in the hall, Jiang Ningzui walked into the hall facing the lingering incense.Jiang Ningzui had just stood still in the hall when she raised her eyes to see Yan Yilan in phoenix clothes and fox fur, reclining lazily on the openwork purple gold seat. clear eyebrows.

Bi Yuan called out softly: "The eldest princess."

Yan Yilan was lazily supporting her head with one hand, and holding a long and thin feather duster with the other, she was teasing a pure white long-haired Persian cat lying prone on the pear wood table.Hearing Bi Yuan's words, she raised her head and her eyes fell on Jiang Ningzui.

Until this moment, Jiang Ningzui was finally able to see Yan Yilan's face clearly. Her lips were tinged with bright red, hiding endless coquettishness, and her phoenix eyes were lightly lifted with a charming light.A gust of wind blew up, and the peach blossoms outside the window fell to the ground, drifting behind her with the wind, that was the most beautiful face Jiang Ningzui had ever seen.

Jiang Ningzui was still thinking, but Yan Yilan laughed softly, hooked her fingers at Jiang Ningzui, and said, "Come here."
