There's something wrong with the lonely princess

Xie Yiyan thought that the crown prince came to pick him up just to talk, but he didn't take it seriously, thinking that he would come back, so he stayed at home for an extra day to accompany his mother, and then waited for His Royal Highness the crown prince.

The crown prince came to pick him up in person, and surprised Xie Shoufu and his wife again. Mrs. Xie took her husband's arm and sent them all the way. Seeing the prince's carriage drifting away, Mrs. Xie was a little worried.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince spoils his Yan'er too much. Why did he come to pick him up at his mother's house in person? It's like a young couple having a conflict and a son-in-law coming to make amends, alas."

Xie Shoufu: "Isn't that right, alas."

Mrs. Xie stopped in her tracks: "Master, do you think the crown prince will fall in love with our Yan'er?"

Thinking of this possibility, Mrs. Xie's face immediately showed a deep worry: "Aside from other things, Yan'er looks just like me, and that face is quite deceiving. Do you think the prince will be the one?" Like his face? What can I do? Our Yan'er..."

"Madam is worrying too much." Xie Shoufu shook his head: "You don't know what kind of temper our Yan'er is? Besides, even if the crown prince likes him, how can he tolerate him? I know what you are worried about. Who is the crown prince? Then," Xie Shoufu turned towards He rolled his eyes: "Where is that beauty three thousand? Recently, I heard that another beauty has been admitted. The prince still needs to say? You don't have to worry, even if Yan'er fell into the prince's eyes for a while, with his dog temper, The crown prince can't stand him for three days, there are many charming beauties waiting to serve you, so don't worry about it."

"That's good, otherwise it's really troublesome."

Let's not talk about how worried the two elders of the Xie family are, only that Xie Yiyan on the carriage is also a little nervous at the moment.

He had never been in the same carriage as Li Shengjing, this was the first time today.

It's a bit different from what he thought, but not too different, it's just bigger, it can accommodate a wheelchair, and it can also leave a place for Xie Yiyan to rest. It's very comfortable and better than he thought Go up a lot.

"When I came here, I wanted to go to the rouge shop that the Crown Princess likes to bring you some rouge, but it's a pity that it's not open. Next time." Li Shengjing asked: "Does the Crown Princess like anything else? You can stop by and have a look."

"Hehe, I don't have any, I just like rouge and gouache." Xie Yiyan lifted the curtain of the car and looked out: "However, I want to buy some chess books, is it convenient for you, Your Highness?"

"Chess record?"

"Yes." Xie Yiyan replied as a matter of course: "The one His Highness gave is too difficult, I can't understand it, and I probably can't even understand the chess records in His Highness's study, why don't you buy two simple ones."

Listening to his words, the corners of Li Shengjing's mouth rose slightly: "There is no need to buy chess records, the princess wants to learn how to play chess, so Gu can teach you."

Anyway, I still can't understand it after buying it. There is really no need to spend this wrong money.

"It's not that I don't know how to play, I just don't play well." Xie Yiyan still tried to support herself: "Your Highness doesn't need to teach you anything special, just order a little bit or two, but don't be like last time, it's too advanced, I I'm a little confused."

What Xie Yiyan was talking about was the piece of chess he wrote about Li Shengjing earlier, which was originally intended to be used for friendly communication with His Royal Highness, but only two moves blocked his way of friendly communication :)

The prince was very good-tempered today, after taking Xie Yiyan back to the mansion, he really taught Xie Yiyan how to play chess, oh, no, just pointing out.

"Is it like this here? No, no, tell me to think again, is it better for me to go here?" Xie Yiyan held the flag and was undecided. Li Shengjing, who was opposite, took a cup of tea and took a sip slowly: " The princess thinks slowly, I have something to tell you."

Xie Yiyan didn't want to think about it anymore, and immediately put down the chess piece in her hand, her expression was slightly serious: "Your Highness, what's the matter?"

"Well, it's not a big deal, it's just that on the eighth day of next month, my aunt's Hundred Flowers Banquet will let you go there." Li Shengjing handed over a flower note: "There will be many wives and ladies who will go to enjoy flowers at that time, don't the princesses like to enjoy flowers? ? Just to join in the fun, maybe I can meet a new friend or two in the boudoir."

Xie Yiyan: ...the expression on his face is cracked.

The eldest princess Ding'an, the aunt of His Royal Highness, is the elder sister of the emperor's mother and compatriots. She is 68 years old this year. She usually has no other hobbies. The one with the most movement is said to have been in operation for more than 20 years and has become a scenic spot in Yejing.

But Xie Yiyan is really not interested in this scenery. He disguises himself as a woman all the year round, and it's not like he hasn't followed Mrs. Xie to the banquets of the wives and ladies. Mrs. Xie never goes to the Hundred Flowers Banquet alone.

According to his mother, she also went to this banquet when it was first held, but she only went there once. After she came back, she pretended to be seriously ill and was ill for several days. Sin, she will never go to the Hundred Flowers Banquet in the future.

Xie Yiyan was also curious, and asked his mother what was going on, could there be tigers at the banquet?His mother didn't say a word, and the post of the Eldest Princess' Hundred Flowers Banquet never went to the Xie Mansion again. If she hadn't known that his mother was still in touch with the Eldest Princess, Xie Yiyan would have wondered if his mother had brought her up. The eldest princess was offended terribly.

"Hundred Flowers Banquet? The one for Princess Ding'an?" Xie Yiyan hesitated: "Your Highness, can I not go?"

Xie Yiyan still believed in his mother's basic judgment. Since his mother had not let him go for so many years, there must be some unknown dangers. It is better not to go or not.

"Forget it, the princess won't go if she doesn't want to go." Li Sheng went to play the chessboard: "You can land here for the move just now."

Xie Yiyan's mind was no longer on playing chess, he remembered that the key point that Li Shengjing raised just now was the queen who asked him to go.

"I'll go." Xie Yiyan immediately repented: "I've heard that the Hundred Flowers Banquet held by the Eldest Princess is very interesting, but I haven't been there yet. I will go, Your Highness, and I agree."

Li Shengjing knew that this was not the princess's original intention, and just now he looked embarrassed and wanted to refuse, but why did he change his mind after a while?Mostly because he sympathized with him, and was afraid that the queen would blame him.

"You don't have to force the princess. It's just a banquet. If you don't want to go, it's not a big deal."

Xie Yiyan shook her head: "I want to go."

"You," Li Shengjing was about to say something when Xie Yiyan's eyes met, Xie Yiyan looked at him and smiled, and said in a relaxed tone: "Well, I really don't want to go, I'm not interested in the topics that your lady said If you can't chat together, it will definitely be boring if you get together, it's more interesting to play chess with His Highness at home."

"However." Xie Yiyan changed her voice: "Since the empress asked me to go, if I don't go, how can I have a business relationship with the empress? And I may also implicate His Highness, His Highness also said, but it's just a banquet. It's not a big deal, I went over to have a look and then came back, there's no need to offend the empress because of this."

"Your Highness, do you think I'm right?"

"The crown princess doesn't have to worry so much, as long as you live a happy life, the other ones are alone."

"Your Highness is not right." Xie Yiyan sighed, stood up, opened the window to let in the air, the spring breeze in March in Yangchun was blowing, and the breath brought was warm, and the willow tree outside the window had sprouted new buds.

"Since we are married, we are a family. Your Highness can take care of me. Then I am not a messy and unreasonable person. If I am so ignorant, then I will become arrogant?" Xie Yiyan joked: "Your Highness Don't worry, if I really, really, really really don't like it, then I will push it to His Highness, it's just a small banquet, I can do it, Your Highness don't have to worry."

A banquet is not a Longtan and Tiger’s Den, what can’t you go to, even if it’s a Longtan and Tiger’s Den, what’s the matter with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince supporting him, so what’s the point?

"Okay, if the princess is unwilling, I will take care of it for you."

"Where did I play just now? Where should I put it? Is it here?" Xie Yiyan picked up the chess piece again, obviously Li Shengjing had demonstrated it to him before, but in the end it was still in the wrong place.

His Royal Highness helped him move it silently: "It's here, you can eat this piece of chess pieces if you play here."

"Sure enough." Xie Yiyan was a little surprised, and happily picked up a large piece of Li Shengjing's white chess, very satisfied.

On the other hand, Li Shengjing, when he was concentrating on picking up the chess pieces, his eyes kept falling on Xie Yiyan's body, indifferently, looking away for a while, and then looking over again, repeating this and being very careful.

"Come on, go on."

After killing a few games, Xie Yiyan was still a little unsatisfied, but it was getting late, and the little prince had to rest well, so he reluctantly cleaned up the chessboard, and offered to invite the next time.

"Next time I can tell you about the chess record." Li Shengjing didn't speak too thoroughly, but reminded him very tactfully: "It's hard to improve just playing chess, and you have to learn from the chess record to return the book."

"Okay." Xie Yiyan only hesitated for a moment, then nodded and agreed: "But Your Highness can't think I'm stupid."

"The princess is not stupid, but very smart."

Xie Yiyan also smiled: "I didn't expect His Highness to have such a sweet mouth."

He said it inadvertently, but when Li Shengjing heard it, he felt that he didn't feel that way in his heart. Seeing that Xie Yiyan wanted to send him back, he politely refused: "The princess is also tired, so I should go to bed earlier."

Li Shengjing said it tactfully, but Xie Yiyan didn't realize it: "I'm not tired, just sit there and play chess for a while, how tiring it would be, and sitting in the room for too long, I happened to come out to get some air."

It's just sitting for a while, how can it be called tired, he is a martial arts practitioner, if he calls him tired, he will really be ashamed to see others, and Xie Yiyan insisted on sending Li Shengjing off, except for that little desire to please the prince, he He also wanted to touch his soft sword more, which had been embedded in Li Shengjing's wheelchair since he brought it back. Xie Yiyan hadn't found a suitable opportunity to get it back, so he could only find an excuse to touch it more.

Also a little sad.
