Seeing his daughter who was embroidering outside, Liang Guogong didn't give a single glance, and left with a cold sentence:

"You persuade your brother."

The needle and thread in Jiang Shangxi's hand froze, and he responded softly with the word "yes".

She is the eldest daughter of Duke Liang's mansion, with outstanding appearance and good reputation.Since the age of 12, countless families in Xijing wanted to come to their door to make a marriage appointment, and they wanted to hire Jiang Shangxi, and they flocked to them.

But no matter who the visitor was or how noble the family was, Liang Guogong refused. He only said to the outside world that his daughter was still young and he was not in a hurry to talk about marriage.

And Jiang Shangxi has turned 16 this year, just the age to be married, but the marriage has not yet been settled. This is extremely rare in Daning, where marriages are generally made at the age of thirteen or fourteen.

Others don't know, but Jiang Shangxi knows exactly what his parents are planning.

The Jiang family gave birth to a queen, but they had no children for many years. Seeing that the children born of Concubine Shi Gui had all grown up, the Jiang family naturally saw it in their eyes, anxious in their hearts, and kept thinking about sending someone to the palace again.

There are also female relatives of the right age in the collateral line of the clan, but the collateral lineage is not his own family after all. Liang Guogong began to think about the appearance of his only prostitute daughter.

Liang Guogong and his wife taught Jiang Shangxi very well. She has been well-educated since she was a child, followed the rules, knew the orders of her parents and the words of the matchmaker, and she could not make decisions by herself.

But there is still a bit of melancholy in my heart.

Empress Jiang is her aunt. Although she has a high status, Jiang Shangxi knows that her aunt is not happy.

She doesn't want to live the same life as her aunt, but what can she do.

Jiang Shangxi put down the needle and thread in his hand, and while his mother was still in his younger brother's room, he lowered his head to look for the little fox hiding under the chair.

"You..." She rubbed the little fox's slick fur with her fingers, "It's been two years since I picked you up, and I don't know how long I can keep you."

The little fox seemed to understand her words, his eyeballs rolled around, and he gently bit her little finger with his teeth, very affectionate.

When Mrs. Liang Guogong came out, the little fox cleverly crawled into Jiang Shangxi's sleeve.

Jiang Shangxi listened to her mother's admonition as always, telling her that she will enter the palace to face the saint in the near future, how can she not lose her manners in front of the emperor... I just feel extremely bored.

But the obedience cultivated since she was a child prevented her from showing any dissatisfaction in front of her mother, so Jiang Shangxi couldn't show any emotions, so she had to lower her eyes quietly.

Two days later, Jiang Yuzhang appeared in Guozixue.His health is getting worse and worse, and it takes a long journey to enter the palace from Duke Liang's mansion, so he doesn't come every day.

There was still about a stick of incense before the lecture, and Liu Li was stopped in the corridor by him: "Princess."

Liu Li raised his head vigilantly, but seeing that Jiang Yuzhang didn't have any malicious intentions, he relaxed a little: "What's the matter?"

"..." Jiang Yuzhang was silent for a moment, "My father wants to clarify our affairs and make an appointment with this family in advance. Last time, Jiang felt that the princess was unwilling, so he came here to ask the princess again."

Liu Li and Chu Guogong wrote about it, but her father didn't seem to care.Anyway, Liu Li is still young and there are many variables, so it doesn't matter whether the relationship is uncertain or not.

Jiang Yuzhang was just a little kid in Liu Li's eyes, so she naturally resisted, but at this time Jiang Yuzhang was still sincere, so she didn't say much, but shook her head silently.

"That's it." Jiang Yuzhang lowered his head to hide the loneliness in his eyes, "Jiang understands. The princess has a bright future, and she really shouldn't be dragged down by my sick body. Jiang will report to his father when he goes back and let him break off this relationship. mind."

Liu Li felt that Jiang Yuzhang was quite pitiful. After all, he had such a high degree of affection for the original owner. Maybe the two of them had a strong relationship before, so he comforted him a few words: "My son, don't feel sorry for yourself, I believe your illness will definitely get better. of."

"Auspicious words from the Princess." Jiang Yuzhang coughed a few times and said, "In a few days, my grandmother, father, and mother will bring us juniors into the palace to visit the Empress. The Princess and I..."

When he said this, he suddenly saw the girl behind Liu Li who was carrying a book bag, her eyes were bright, and she looked towards this side without blinking.

It is His Royal Highness Nine Princesses.

When the two looked at each other, His Royal Highness Jiu narrowed his eyes for no apparent reason, and the deliberately cold light almost burned Jiang Yuzhang's eyeballs.

But in an instant, the feeling of fear of being targeted disappeared again. Jiang Yuzhang looked at Ning Zisheng in a daze, wondering, could it be his own illusion?

"What's the matter?" Liu Li followed his gaze and turned around, only to see Ning Zisheng standing there quietly, as if waiting for Liu Li.Seeing her turn around, he even bent the corner of his mouth, pointed in the direction of the classroom, and signaled her to hurry up.

Jiang Yuzhang paused for a moment: "...the princess left something with me earlier, I will bring it back and return it to the princess."

"Okay." Liu Li sent a good person card to Jiang Yuzhang in his heart, secretly praising him for being very knowledgeable, which saved a lot of unnecessary trouble, "My son is upright, I thank you from here."

The original owner's "Love Token" should indeed be taken back, otherwise there will be endless troubles.

The lecture of Guozixue was about to start, Liu Li nodded slightly at Jiang Yuzhang and left, excitedly rushing to Ning Zisheng's side.

Jiang Yuzhang was stunned for a moment, only to see Princess Chunning chatting and laughing with His Highness Ninth Prince, the expression was completely different from the expression when he was talking to him just now.

When the figures of the two walked to the end of the corridor, Jiang Yuzhang didn't know if he was dazzled, but His Highness Ninth Prince suddenly glanced at Jiang Yuzhang again from the corner of his eye.

With condescending eyes, Jiang Yuzhang only read one word——

roll.

He is the son of Liang Guogong, even the third prince wants to give some face, but the unfavored Ninth Prince dares to show his dislike for him so arrogantly.

Jiang Yuzhang suddenly had a bold guess, she and Princess Chunning, maybe? !

On the day when the old lady of the Jiang family and Liang Guogong and his wife entered the palace with their children, the Holy One specially hosted a banquet for them by the Imperial Lake.

Regardless of the relationship between the empress and the empress, the Jiang family is still honored and favored. This is why Empress Jiang had the confidence to make a big fuss with Emperor Jiacheng after being wronged.

"Yuzhang and Changxi have met uncle and aunt."

In the superficial greetings, both true and false, Jiang Yuzhang and Jiang Shangxi kowtowed to Emperor Jiacheng and Empress Jiang.

Empress Jiang naturally knew why her brother and sister-in-law brought their little niece into the palace this time.

This palace is a big colorful dye vat, people will change after staying for a long time.She loved Emperor Jiacheng to the bone, and she insisted on marrying her back then, but now because of jealousy and hatred, she has become what she hated most in the past.

The young niece is just in time, if she hadn't been doing nothing, she wouldn't have made such a bad move... Empress Jiang's heart was full of resentment towards Emperor Jiacheng.

There was nothing wrong with her body, nothing was wrong with her, it was just because Emperor Jiacheng didn't like her.

Jiang Shangxi felt his aunt's complicated gaze, and he didn't dare to raise his head to meet her gaze, but he obediently helped his younger brother up after Emperor Jiacheng said "flat body".

Liang Guogong and his wife saw that she was so sensible and courteous, and they smiled happily, thinking that their daughter would definitely fall into the eyes of the Holy Majesty.

At this time, Liu Li and Ning Zisheng were lying on the roof of Linde Hall.It may be inaccurate to say lying down, because only Liu Li is like this, while Ning Zisheng has found the center of gravity steadily, lightened his toes, and sat firmly.

This was the second time Liu Li went up to the roof, so he was naturally very careful, for fear that he would fall.

Linde Hall is right next to Yuhu Lake, so the two of them can easily see every move over there, but they can't see here because there are no lights here.

In fact, what is lit there is not a lamp, but a new thing that was tributed by other countries. It is called a lamp tree, that is, dozens of lamps are placed on some lamp stands. The shape is like a tree, which is very novel and beautiful.It is about tens of feet high, scattered around in a circle, illuminating the night almost as bright as day. 【Note 1】

It was so bright over there, in stark contrast to the darkness here, and the figures of the two were just covered by a cypress tree, completely hidden.

Just as Ning Zisheng was about to look up, he suddenly reached out his hand to feel the invisible wind in the air, and thought for a while: "Western wind?"

Liu Li also felt the wind blowing: "Is there something wrong?"

"... Xijing has been sunny for three or four months, and the westerly wind is blowing tonight, which is a sign of rain." [Note 2]

"Ah?" Liu Li's first reaction was that he was afraid that the two of them would be ruined, and then he was worried about whether the drug administration would be successful, "Then what should we do? Should we take the pill back?"

According to the plan they discussed, the pill was hidden in advance on the top of the pavilion beside the imperial lake, and hung with a very thin silk thread to ensure that it would not fall.

At that time, Ning Zisheng would break the silk thread with an arrow, and the pill would fall into it steadily when Jiang's family wanted to serve tea, blending into one.

Although it sounds too risky, but with Ning Zisheng's luck bonus, Liu Li thinks there is no problem.

It's just that if the west wind comes, if the pill is blown away by the wind or rained, wouldn't it be useless? !

"No." Ning Zisheng's heart moved slightly, "Let's see."

Soon, the flames of the Lantern Tree began to sway gradually in the wind. At first, everyone didn't realize it, but after a while they realized something was wrong.

At first, a few lights of a tree of lights were extinguished, and gradually it turned into a complete extinction.The wind blows one by one along the direction where the lamp trees are placed until there are only a few left.

How bright it was before the Yuhu Lake, but how dim it is now.

Tonight, the Holy Majesty ordered only the tree of lights to be used, and the people below did not prepare any other lights at all, and the serving eunuchs and maids rushed to get emergency lanterns.

The people of the Jiang family had just finished serving tea, and Emperor Jiacheng raised his glass to drink, when he felt the little drops of rain dripping on his fingers, and asked with a frown, "Is it raining?"

Before the words were finished, the heavy rain immediately extinguished the last few lamp trees, and several exclamations sounded at the same time.

The thunder roared, and from time to time, everything in front of him was illuminated for a moment, and Liu Li was stunned.

She watched the wind blow up the pill, and it flew across the sky like a broken bead, forming a perfect parabola, and accurately fell into the teapot with a slightly skewed lid.Everyone was so flustered that they couldn't even notice it.

This change came and went quickly.

After the rain stopped and the wind stopped, several lamp trees were lit again. Emperor Jiacheng frowned slightly as he looked at the teacup soaked by the rain in front of him.

The eunuch beside him reacted quickly, immediately changed a cup, and slowly poured another cup for Emperor Jiacheng from the teapot, and he drank it down in one gulp.

The medicine entered Emperor Jiacheng's stomach like this, and everything was completed unexpectedly.

Liu Li turned his head stiffly, and wanted to ask Ning Zisheng, what kind of Ouhuang are you?

Is this the daughter of destiny who rushed to feed the meal into her mouth? I love it.

Ning Zisheng didn't react much.

It's up to man to plan, but it's up to God to make things happen. If you go against God's will, no matter how well-planned you are, you can't get things done.

Since God is helping me, then this matter must conform to God's will.

After the rain stopped, the dark clouds gradually dissipated, revealing the bright moon behind the clouds, and countless shining stars, making the night no longer so dark that you can't see your fingers.

Liu Li's coat was a little wet, it was almost winter, and it was extremely cold, which made her shiver.

"Is it cold?" Ning Zisheng looked sideways at Liu Li.

"...It's okay." Liu Li just felt a little uncomfortable covered by the wet clothes.On the other hand, Ning Zisheng was dry, which made her very envious.

Ning Zisheng paused, then took off his outer shirt: "Take it off, wear mine."

"Ah?" Liu Li hurriedly refused, "Forget it, Your Highness, what should you do if you catch a cold?"

Ning Zisheng didn't speak, but just passed the clothes in his hands forward, showing that he couldn't refuse.

The author has something to say: Seeing everyone’s reminders, I am also very anxious. My hand speed is very fast, and more can be added... But in mass production, many details will be difficult to control. If I write hard, Not only is it deceiving everyone's money, but it is also irresponsible to Princess Jiu and Liu Xiaoli.

So I am more inclined to slow down the pace, one day a day is more appropriate, thank you for your understanding =3=
