Princess is stubborn

Xu Yuyao really didn't understand what was going on in the minds of the Supervisor of Rituals.Things have already deviated from their planned process, why are they still sticking to those broken rules and refusing to change?

Fortunately, the supervisor of ceremonies did not follow into the room, Xu Yuyao told the bell: "Tonight, no one is allowed to enter this courtyard without my palace's call."

"Then what about these people?" Bell asked, looking at the door of the bedroom.

"Call the guards and rush out of the courtyard. As long as they don't enter the courtyard, they can go wherever they like!" After Xu Yuyao finished speaking, she immediately dragged Xie Bai into the bedroom, and then closed the door bang in front of everyone, tied up.

Xie Bai was given a lot of alcohol again today, but it was much better than when she was in Chunfenglou. At least, she is still awake, but her face and body are a little hot.

When Xu Yuyao visited the church today, she found that Xie Bai's suit didn't fit well. Now that she took a closer look, it was not just that it didn't fit, it wasn't made according to Xie Bai's size at all!

Without further ado, Xu Yuyao directly reached out to touch the tie of Xie Bai's belt, and pulled it off her belt.

Xie Bai was startled by her sudden movement, and his face, which was already blushing because of the alcohol, turned even redder: "Your Highness, Your Highness!"

"The clothes are so tight, why don't you take them off quickly!" Xu Yuyao began to untie the laces of her blouse while talking, "Your injuries can bear such a squeeze?"

When Mrs. Xie came out to see her off today when she left the Hou Mansion, she didn't even notice it, but Xu Yuyao had already noticed it.Xie Bai felt a little uncomfortable.

Seeing Xu Yuyao hurriedly took off her wedding dress, Xie Bai stood there, stunned like a log.

Xu Yuyao went to the drawer of the closet and found the medicine bottle: "Fortunately, I prepared the wound medicine here in advance, what are you doing standing up, go sit over there, and I will give you the medicine."

Xie Bai went over to sit down obediently, and looked down at the injury on his arm.

Due to wearing this clothes for two consecutive days, the scars that had already healed were red as if they had just been beaten, and some of them had even broken their skin.

Xu Yuyao carefully applied medicine to each of her scars, and saw the back tightly bound by the cloth strips: "Don't loosen it yet, aren't you afraid of pain?"

Xie Bai loosened the cloth strip by himself, his entire upper body was a little red from drinking, but he couldn't tell if he was shy.

Putting medicine on the last few places on his back, Xu Yuyao threw Xie Bai a bellyband: "Wear this, don't wrap it with cloth strips in the future, isn't it uncomfortable?"

Xu Yuyao tried it when she was trying to disguise herself as a man before, and after only a while, she felt that she was strangled so hard that she could hardly breathe, and Xie Bai actually strangled for a whole day.

It must be uncomfortable.But Xie Bai felt that he couldn't feel at ease now.

She felt at ease, but Xu Yuyao felt less at ease: "Is the wedding dress made by the ceremonial supervisor? Didn't I go to measure your size before? Didn't I show you to try it on and modify it after I made it?"

Subconsciously, Xie Bai didn't really want her to know that the wedding dress was actually a test of power and temptation from those in the palace.

To test how far she can endure is also to warn her that in their eyes, she is just an ant that can be squashed and rounded by them at any time.

So, Xie Bai explained: "I tried it on yesterday, but it fit quite well at that time. Maybe it's because I ate too much dinner yesterday, so it's so tight today."

"Xie Bai, do you think I'm stupid?" Xu Yuyao saw her put on the thin skirt he prepared for her, and said, "With your small body, a meal can make the clothes that fit you thinner? I'm afraid You can’t even eat it for a month.”

After drinking, even the brain becomes stupid.Xie Bai thought: Such a clumsy excuse must not be able to deceive her, why did I just say this reason?

Seeing that she didn't speak, Xu Yuyao continued to ask: "Is it because the supervisors are too perfunctory? Tell me the truth. You are my son-in-law, and if they bully you, they are bullying me!"

"It's nothing," Xie Bai said, "As the princess said, the face of Luochen is the face of His Royal Highness. How dare the supervisor of ceremonies do this. It's not that this year's princes in Beijing are wearing thin clothes, It looks more suave and suave. Your Highness thinks, how does the minister wear this?"

"It's better to wear women's clothing." Xu Yuyao seemed to be convinced.

Xie Bai breathed a sigh of relief: "Your Highness has been tired all day today, let's rest early."

"I haven't had Heying wine yet." Xu Yuyao walked to the table, turned over the pair of glazed cups that King Ding gave him, and got two and a half cups, "You drank a lot today, so let's only drink half a cup. "

I don't know if it's because of the alcohol, or what kind of emotion seized the brain, Xie Bai said: "Since you want to drink Hebei wine with the princess, you should fill it up and be satisfied."

After speaking, he picked up the jug and filled up both of their glasses.

Xu Yuyao was a little worried: "What if I'm drunk?"

Xie Bai smiled brightly: "In front of the princess, if you are drunk, you will be drunk."

Hearing Xie Bai's words, Xu Yuyao picked up the wine glass, handed her one, and entangled her arms: "After drinking this glass of wine, you will only be a member of my palace for the rest of your life."

This was the third time Xie Bai heard this sentence, and a hint of joy sprouted from the bottom of his heart.

Xu Yuyao seldom drank alcohol, she drank it all in one gulp, and even coughed.

Xie Bai hurriedly put down the empty cup in his hand, reached out and patted her on the back, and waited for her to stop coughing before withdrawing his hand.

"Thank you."

"The minister is here."

"Don't call yourself a minister, I don't like it." Xu Yuyao raised his hand and touched her face, "Don't call me Your Highness, call me by my name."

When Xu Yuyao was 16 years old, there was still some baby fat on her face, but Xie Bai was different. She had a thin face since she was a child, and she could feel the bones when she touched it.

Xie Bai opened his mouth, but found that he couldn't scream.

Xu Yuyao didn't force her to call her name anymore, but only touched her face with her fingers, and slowly touched her eyebrows and eyes.

In the beginning, what Xu Yuyao liked the most was Xie Bai's eyes, which were clear and firm, which was never seen in the eyes of other young masters in Beijing, and it was also not seen in the eyes of those young ladies in Beijing.

Later, Xu Yuyao liked her nose, and Xie Bai's nose would always subconsciously twitch when she showed any small expressions, like a cat sniffing.

Later, Xu Yuyao liked her lips, that mouth that could always answer the questions of the wife ingeniously, would clenched tightly when she was nervous...

By the time Xu Yuyao understood, she had already fallen in love with everything about Xie Bai.

His fingers moved along her facial features little by little, and finally landed on Xie Bai's sharp and thin chin.Xu Yuyao subconsciously licked her lower lip, then gently pinched Xie Bai's chin and kissed it.

From the moment Xu Yuyao's hand touched his face, Xie Bai's heart beat uncontrollably.Xie Bai understood what was going to happen next, but also didn't quite understand.

Until Xu Yuyao came to kiss him, Xie Bai felt that there seemed to be a vacancy in his heart, which was suddenly filled.

This was not the first time Xu Yuyao kissed her, but this was the most tender one Xu Yuyao kissed.Without the previous aggression that seemed to want to tear himself apart, Xie Bai only felt that the breaths of the two were intertwined, and there was a strange feeling in the smell of alcohol.

"Yao... Yao'er." Xie Bai called out tentatively.

But suddenly Xu Yuyao held her hand and pulled her to the side of the bed, where she pushed her to sit on the bed.

Xu Yuyao's kiss quickly fell again.

The thin skirt on Xie Bai fell to the ground unknowingly.Xu Yuyao's hand was like a snake aiming at its prey waiting for an opportunity, it was quietly winding into the hem of the bellyband.

"hiss--"

Xie Bai's painful inhalation made Xu Yuyao pause.

After a day of rubbing against the clothes on the back, the slightest touch would cause burning pain.

Xu Yuyao withdrew her hand, stroked Xie Bai's loose hair, and said, "We'll talk about it when you recover from your injury."

After finishing speaking, he gently left a kiss on her forehead.

Xie Bai didn't ask what to say after the injury recovered.She knew more or less in her heart what would have happened next if she hadn't made a sound because of the pain of the wound just now.

"Go to sleep." Xu Yuyao put down the bed curtain.

The bed net cuts off the candlelight outside, which makes people feel at ease.

Xie Bai lay sideways on the bed, secretly looking at Xu Yuyao by the graceful candlelight.

When seeing her face painted like that today, Xie Bai almost didn't recognize her.She also thought that with Xu Yuyao's temper, she would definitely not want to be transformed into that.

"Look at what?"

Peeking at the caught bag, Xie Bai hurriedly closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep.

However, if you close your eyes, you will see Xu Yuyao's bright face—as expected, Xu Yuyao looks better without makeup.

With a chuckle, Xu Yuyao also closed her eyes again and soon fell asleep.

Marriage is a very tiring thing. When Xu Yuyao woke up together, she only felt sore and painful in her joints.

Especially the neck and waist, one bears the weight of the phoenix crown, and the other is so sore as if it has been soaked in a vinegar bucket because of the carriage all the way.

"Your Highness, what's the matter with you?" Bell asked seeing Xu Yuyao sitting uncomfortable.

Xu Yu said, "My back is sore."

The ceremonial supervisor who was driven outside the living room heard the words: "Your Highness, don't talk about this matter."

Frowning, Xu Yuyao recalled what they were thinking, and sneered: "Let's not talk about why my back is sore, even if it's what you think, why can't you say it?"

The supervisor of ceremonies said: "It's indecent."

"Is this indecent?" Xu Yu Yao said, "Wouldn't your father make the hall feel ashamed and die?"

The person in charge of ceremonies was puzzled, but dared not ask.

Bell asked for them: "Your Highness, why?"

"Who wasn't born after his parents were 'indecent'? Since he was born after his parents were 'indecent', he is naturally an 'indecent' person. Both 'indecent' People who have been transformed, they still show their faces all day long, and their parents don't have to die of shame."

Bell seemed to understand, but also didn't seem to understand.

Xie Bai understood everything. He was somewhat ashamed to be misunderstood by the supervisor of ceremonies, but after Xu Yuyao's sophistry, he felt that there was nothing to be ashamed about.

The person in charge of ceremonies also understood, and their expressions became very funny.

Xu Yuyao ignored them, had breakfast with Xie Bai, and was ready to go out.

But was stopped by the person in charge of ceremonies: "Your Highness, according to Daqi's custom, a banquet will be held at the princess's mansion, and the unmarried ladies in Beijing will be invited to come together, so as to be happy."

"No." Xu Yuyao didn't like such a broken banquet at all.

"But... Your Majesty specifically told the officials that it must be done, and it must be done in a lively manner," the supervisor of ceremonies said humanely, "and, the invitations have already been sent to all the houses, and the guests will arrive in half an hour." .”

Xu Yuyao wanted to scold someone, but she didn't know how to scold, after all, it was the queen's own order, and she even scolded herself when she scolded.

Flicking his sleeves, Xu Yuyao could only take Xie Bai back to the bedroom.

"Why does Your Highness hate hosting banquets so much?" Xie Bai was puzzled.

Xu Yuyao loves to play, and the banquet held by the high-ranking officials in Beijing is just for fun. It stands to reason that Xu Yuyao should like it.

"We can't chat with them." Xu Yuyao said, "Why do you call me Your Highness?"

Xie Bai pursed his lips, and then said like a mosquito: "Yu Yao."

"Isn't it rumor?"

Xie Bai bit his lower lip, the roots of his ears were already bleeding red.

Seeing her reaction, Xu Yuyao thought it was amused, so she leaned over and whispered in her ear, "You still think that the phrase 'Yao'er' should stay on the bed and shout."

"Your Highness!" Xie Bai subconsciously wanted to escape, but Xu Yuyao stood in front of him, blocking the only way out.

Xie Bai had no choice but to retreat, but she forgot that she was sitting on a chair, and when she retreated, she almost turned over with the chair.

Fortunately, Xu Yuyao had sharp eyesight and quick hands, and held her to prevent her from falling.

Xie Bai's heart was beating like thunder, and he didn't know whether it was the excitement from Xu Yuyao's words, or the fright that he almost fell down.

"So timid and thin-skinned, how can I act like a man?" Xu Yuyao sat back and smiled.

Xie Bai faltered and said: "The friendship between gentlemen is as light as water, and honest men and gentlemen will not discuss these things."

"Well, it's a pity that you are the only real gentleman in the whole capital."

Xu Yuyao was serious.Except for Xie Bai, Xu Yuyao felt that there would be no other person like this in the entire capital.

All of them were made glib by the family and the circle. Xu Yuyao had also heard a little about what the group of sons-in-law said when he wanted to recruit a son-in-law.

Really, I don’t know it.

They are not even worthy to carry shoes for Xie Bai, a bunch of ordinary people.

Xie Bai was somewhat ashamed of Xu Yuyao's flattery.

Compared with the evaluation of a gentleman, what she heard more was "pedantic", "pretentious", and "serious".

"Your Highness, the guests have arrived." Bell knocked on the door and said.

"Understood." Xu Yuyao said, "Tea and snacks are served, and I will call Bengong when the time comes."

"Here."

Not long after Ling Dang left, she came back again: "Your Highness, all the guests are here, and the Master of Ceremonies has sent a servant to invite you."

"Understood." Xu Yuyao stood up reluctantly.

Seeing her unhappy face, Xie Bai comforted him: "If the princess is not angry during the banquet today, how about I make a picture for the princess when I come back?"

When she was reading with the princess, Xu Yuyao especially liked to pester Xie Bai and ask her to draw herself.

However, hearing this, Xu Yuyao was not very happy: "But what if those people make me angry?"

"Just ignore them," Xie Bai said, "Your Highness has always been able to ignore other people's words, and it is the same today."

After thinking about it, Xu Yuyao felt it made sense and nodded.

The banquet was held in the back garden of the Princess Mansion, facing the lake, with a few scattered tables.

The ladies who came came in twos and threes, sitting with those who were familiar with me.

"This princess mansion is much bigger than the prince's mansion."

"Well, is the lake on the prince's mansion half as big as this lake?"

"It is said that the land of the Princess Mansion was bought by His Majesty from the moment she was born, and began to see how to build the Princess Mansion."

"I heard from my father that the princess' salary is higher than that of the prince."

"His Royal Highness is here—"

A sound came from a distance, and the originally lively banquet was suddenly quiet.

Everyone stood up in unison: "The courtiers see Her Royal Highness, I wish Her Royal Highness and the son-in-law will be united forever!"

"Exemption."

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Xu Yuyao pulled Xie Bai to sit in front of her desk, saw that they were still standing, and said, "Let's all sit down."

A group of people sat back again.

Many people took the opportunity to start sizing up Xu Yuyao and Xie Bai.

As for Xu Yuyao, they met quite a lot. After all, when the palace held banquets, the Prince's Mansion held banquets, and the Hou's Mansion held banquets, Xu Yuyao often showed his face, although he left after showing his face.

As for Xie Bai, except for Xie Bai's poems and paintings that they saw with their own eyes, everything else was heard from other people——

What "face is like a crown jade", what "handsome and suave", what "Pianpian son", when I saw it today, I was a little disappointed.

These facial features are good-looking, but they are too delicate!Is it still a little far from "handsome and suave, elegant son"?Especially when she stood beside Xu Yuyao, she was a little shorter than Xu Yuyao.

This princess has been well-clothed and well-fed since she was a child, why is her vision so poor?

Before coming over, Xu Yuyao was dragged by the supervisor of ceremonies to say a lot of things that she wanted to say now, but she didn't want to say a word.

Xie Bai glanced at her, and could only say for her: "Thank you ladies for your honor, for coming to my humble house..."

"The son-in-law is serious."

After finishing speaking, the dinner was quiet again.

Someone relied on his close relationship with Xu Yuyao, so he suggested: "I heard that the son-in-law is very talented. He used to be the princess's companion. He must be very good at reciting poems and composing right."

After speaking, everyone went to look at Xu Yuyao, and seeing the latter's expression neither happy nor angry, they gradually became more courageous.

Someone said: "Although our sisters haven't gone to school to study, they can be regarded as having studied poetry and poetry. Why don't we hold a small poetry meeting today and discuss with the son-in-law?"

"Yeah!"

Xie Bai hadn't met friends through poetry for a long time, and felt itchy for a while: "What do you think, Your Highness?"

Seeing the light in Xie Bai's eyes, Xu Yuyao originally wanted to refuse, but finally nodded: "As you like."

Xu Yuyao hates listening to people dragging words, as if everyone who doesn't say something is not worthy of talking.

But Xie Bai seemed to like these things very much, so he had to bear with it.

Hearing the princess's permission, someone volunteered: "Then the courtier will volunteer first."

The person who spoke looked familiar, but Xu Yuyao couldn't remember who it belonged to.

Bell had no choice but to remind from the side: "This is the granddaughter of Princess Jiade, Princess Huiwan."

Princess Jiade is the aunt of the current emperor, so isn't she his cousin?

Xu Yuyao looked at Princess Huiwan, and suddenly wondered what kind of poem she could compose—from what the prince said, Princess Jiade intended to marry the Changping Marquis, but the Changping Marquis had always wanted to marry her. decline.

Princess Huiwan smiled and said: "A monkey came from a distance, scratching its ears and scratching its cheeks. It is a small monkey. It is hairless and tailless. It is a monkey from Changping."

When hearing the third sentence, Xu Yuyao already realized that something was wrong, and when the last sentence was finished, Xu Yuyao almost turned the table directly.

Xie Bai pressed her hand and said in a low voice: "Princess agrees to my subject and ignores them."

"But she dared to humiliate you with such nonsense poetry!"

"Your Highness, don't be angry, it's just a doggerel, and then you can use the doggerel to mock it back." Xie Bai smiled slightly, and after looking at Princess Huiwan, he said quietly, "The red feather crown on the head, and the red pink clothes. This is a phoenix. Falling, who would have expected to fall into the mud. The Liquan never drinks, and the sycamore tree does not live. Why is it so strange, a pheasant in the mountains."

Princess Huiwan's face suddenly became a little uneasy: "You... you actually scolded me!"

Xie Bai smiled: "The princess was just joking, I just thought of the strange things I saw a few days ago, and discussed with the princess in poetry. Could it be that the poems that the princess just wrote are not about what the princess saw before?" Freak?"

Princess Huiwan's face was blue and white, so naturally she would not admit that she was just mocking him for being short and thin.She originally thought that Xie Bai could only read the books of sages, but when it came to such folk doggerel, she would only blush and sulk.

Unexpectedly, Xie Bai came to the doggerel with his mouth open.

Who told her that scholars disdain these things the most!

It's just that, even if Xie Bai scolded her, she couldn't get angry—even if she was the only one in the audience wearing a red feather hairpin and a pink dress.

The other ladies couldn't help laughing softly, Princess Huiwan's expression became even uglier.

Someone came down and said: "What's wrong with the princess? You have never been a son-in-law for poetry, are you ashamed? You don't have to be ashamed. The son-in-law is a student at the Gyeonggi University. The consort's sparring is already very powerful."

After listening to Xie Bai's own ridicule, Xu Yuyao's complexion improved a little, but only a little.

Xu Yuyao was not happy at all seeing Princess Huiwan being beaten down by them.

What's the point of fighting here all day long?With this time, it is better to go out and push two chastity archways.

Thinking of this, Xu Yuyao remembered that he hadn't finished talking to the crown prince about erecting the monument!And Suizhou, I don’t know what’s going to happen next... No, after a few days, I still have to go to Suizhou again.

With Princess Huiwan's announcement, the others also accepted their desire to look down on Xie Bai.

Originally, they thought that Xu Yuyao must be very unhappy after finding such a thin and small son-in-law who pretended to be sick before marriage, so today they also came here with a sense of spectatorship.

So when he saw Xie Bai, he looked down on Xie Bai while preparing to see Xu Yuyao's jokes.

Who would have imagined that this Xie Bai not only taunted him back with a sharp tongue, but also calmed Princess Yu Yao who was obviously about to get angry? !

This is really one thing and one thing.

Princess Huiwan, on the other hand, became a joke for everyone present.

Seeing that they were silent, Xie Bai asked with a smile, "The scenery by the lake is beautiful today, how about we all write about the scenery?"

If you win, I will give you another step. Xie Bai's move made Princess Huiwan even more uncomfortable.

The others didn't mind selling Xie Bai's face, so they diverted their attention to the lake view.

Now in early summer, the lotus is in bud, and sometimes dragonflies fly by and stand on the tip of the bud, and sometimes koi swim by, causing ripples on the lake.

Several young ladies wrote poems, and they did pretty well.

Princess Huiwan couldn't sit still anymore, seeing that Xu Yuyao was eating her own food and didn't participate, so she said: "I heard that the princess's cousin read books with the son-in-law a few years ago, I think she must have done very well in poetry, Why don't you write a poem for my cousin?"

"I can't." Xu Yuyao admitted without the slightest shame.

Except for Xie Bai and Ling Dang, everyone else did not expect that Xu Yuyao would be so straightforward.

Xie Bai said: "Let me compose a poem for Your Highness."

"This... the poem written by the son-in-law belongs to the son-in-law, how can it replace His Highness?"

Xu Yuyao held the handle of the cherry, and bit off the twin cherry: "She belongs to me, so the poems she writes belong to me, what's wrong with that?"

Xu Yulian's words have reached this point, and no one else can refute.

How to refute?Do you want to say "How could the son-in-law be yours"?Everyone knows that men in the world are respected, with the exception of the princess's mansion.

Princess Jiade married a son-in-law back then, and the son-in-law obeyed what the eldest princess said.

Xie Bai looked at the scenery in front of him, and casually came up with a seven-character quatrain.

Xu Yuyao doesn't understand poetry, but she can read people's performance.The people sitting below all showed expressions of appreciation and admiration, completely different from the way they looked at Xie Bai when they first came.It can be seen that Xie Bai's poem should be excellent.

Generally, the banquet hosted by noble ladies after they get married, apart from fighting poems, they will also play the piano and paint together, but Xu Yuyao doesn't like anything, and finally only let Xie Bai get addicted to poetry and it's over.

When everyone left, Xu Yuyao let out a long sigh of relief: "Arty, boring, too boring."

Xie Bai was a little curious: "Your Highness doesn't love piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, so what do you do on weekdays?"

"Catch grasshoppers and release paper kites in spring, fight crickets in summer, pick fruits in autumn, and have ice skating and snowball fights in winter." Xu Yuyao thought for a while and said, "You can read storybooks all year round, and you can go out of the palace to listen to books and sing songs." son."

If you add another person who drinks flower wine, Xu Yuyao will be exactly the same as those dudes in the capital.

Seeing that she was silent, Xu Yuyao asked, "Have you ever fought a cricket?"

Xie Bai shook his head: "Master said, these are all irrelevant things."

"Listen to my master's nonsense," Xu Yuyao said, "Now is not the time. When the weather gets warmer, I will teach you how to fight crickets."

"it is good."

When the prince received the invitation from the Princess Mansion, he just woke up from a nap to check his youngest son Xu Qingyue's homework.

Hearing that Xu Yuyao was looking for him, he immediately put down the book in his hand: "Can the princess tell me what's the matter?"

"Not yet." The visitor said, "Looking at the princess's mood, it shouldn't be a big or urgent matter."

"Then let me go." The crown prince told Xu Qingyue to study hard at home, prepared a carriage by himself, and went to the princess mansion.

When the prince arrived, Xu Yuyao was with Xie Bai in the Huxin Pavilion in the backyard and asked Xie Bai to paint for her.

It is so elegant to start reciting poems and painting on the second day of the wedding.Sitting on the boat heading for the Huxin Pavilion, the prince couldn't help thinking: no, I will accompany the princess to swim in the lake and talk about poetry and songs when I take a rest.

"Third brother is here." Xu Yuyao sat there motionless, just gave him a look, "Third brother sit first, bell, let's watch tea."

"Here." Ling Dang poured a cup of hot tea and handed it to the prince, "Please, Your Highness."

The prince took the tea and said, "Yao'er, you just got married, and now you are calling the third brother to come to see your music and music?"

"Third brother teased me again." Xu Yuyao still didn't move, "It's about erecting the monument that I said before. Now that the marriage is over, I have time to care about this matter."

The prince's heart skipped a beat.I thought that after getting married, Xie Bai would be able to distract her and make her forget about it.After all, Xu Yuyao has been interested in everything on a whim since she was a child, and the freshness in the past is nothing more than that.

This time, it's been so long, and I still haven't forgotten!

The prince had no choice but to say: "This is the second day of marriage, you are not afraid of thanking for nothing."

Xu Yuyao looked straight at Xie Bai and asked, "Third brother asks you, I am distracted to think about these things, will you be jealous?"

When the crown prince said it just now, Xie Bai was somewhat embarrassed, but now when Xu Yuyao asked such a question, it was even more embarrassing.

In Suizhou before, she promised the queen that she would spend her whole life answering that question, but that answer at that time did not win the trust of the royal family.So, should she answer now that she is jealous, or not?

"Where do you ask people like that," the prince said, "Men are very face-saving. If you ask like that, the son-in-law may not be able to tell the truth."

"Xie Bai, you also want to save face, so you refuse to tell the truth?"

Regarding Xu Yuyao's questioning, Xie Bai stopped writing, thought for a while and said, "Your Highness has something in mind, and I am very happy. In this matter, I have always stood by His Highness, so I can't say whether I am jealous or not." .”

Xu Yuyao looked at the prince proudly: "Third Brother, did you see that?"

The prince didn't expect Xie Bai to give such an answer, and he was stunned for a moment.

After a while, the prince said: "Then what are your plans now?"

"Since no one is willing to stand up, I'll still be the No.1 one who stands out." Xu Yuyao said, "Let's engrave my name and deeds on it."

"How did this happen?!" The prince didn't expect Xu Yuyao to be so scheming.

He has suppressed this matter, and no one in Beijing is allowed to talk about Xu Yuyao's encounter with Deng Tuzi when he went out of the city to Shangxiang. Anyone who violates the order and discusses it will be killed without mercy.

However, Xu Yuyao intends to engrave her name and this matter on it?

"How can I not do it? I am also one of the reporters."

The prince hesitated and said: "This matter is not only about yourself, but also about the reputation of the son-in-law. You don't think about yourself, you have to think about the son-in-law, right?"

"Before the third brother came, I had already talked with Xie Bai." Xu Yuyao said.

"The son-in-law should also be against it?"

"No," Xu Yuyao said proudly, "Xie Bai said he supported me."

The prince could hardly catch his breath: "Are you also following her for such things?"

"I believe that what the princess says and thinks is not unreasonable. If no one is willing to stand up, then the princess, who is a model of women in the world, should naturally take this responsibility."

"But..." The crown prince felt that after getting married, why would Xie Bai be as difficult to understand as Xu Yuyao, "As a man, don't you feel that you can't save face?"

Xie Bai put down his brush, handed the drawing paper to Xu Yuyao, and said to the crown prince, "I know what your highness means. Both your highness and this subject grew up reading those sage books, because everyone regards them as sages." , so I have never thought about whether the content in it is correct before. However, some of the princess's remarks made me think a lot during this time."

The prince frowned slightly.

Xie Bai didn't seem to notice, and continued: "I don't think that a man's face is tied to a woman's so-called 'virginity'. I also don't think that a woman's 'chastity' is tied to a man's behavior towards a woman. The word chastity is supposed to be the steadfastness of a gentleman, loyal to the country, loyal to the monarch, and loyal to his own ideals. But I don’t know why, this word has gradually become a shackle unique to women.”

The prince frowned, and then wrinkled again.

"The princess' words and deeds that day were like a blow to the head, which woke me up." Xie Bai said, "So, I will support the princess and pursue her ideals."

"Xie Bai, you have figured it out." Seeing his resolute attitude, the prince could only say, "If Yao'er's name is really engraved on that stele, what kind of rumors will she face, and you will meet again?" What kind of rumors."

Xu Yuyao scoffed at this statement: "Third brother, when have I been afraid of these rumors?"

"Since the princess is not afraid, the subject is naturally not afraid." Xie Bai said.

"Since you have made up your mind, the third brother will not persuade you anymore." The prince sighed, "You are married, have a family, and every step you take in the future will be the life of you and your son-in-law. The third brother will not It's time to continue to intervene. I will find someone to write about the engraving of the stele."

"Don't bother third brother," Xu Yuyao said, "Xie Bai can write the essay for me, as long as third brother contacts the person who erected the monument."

The prince looked at Xie Bai with disapproval, but Xie Bai was unmoved.

He couldn't hold back one person, but now that Xu Yuyao found Xie Bai, they suddenly became two people. The prince felt that even if he united with the other four brothers, they couldn't hold back these two.

Now that this matter has been decided, the prince simply stopped thinking about it and asked, "How was the banquet in the morning? Are you happy?"

"No, it's so boring, it's too boring." Xu Yu Yao said, "However, the princess of my aunt's house provided a fun for everyone, and the third brother will hear it almost tomorrow."

"The one from Princess Jiade's house?"

"Yes." Xu Yuyao said, "Grandma may also go to the father to complain."

Prince:  …

"So, Hui Wan made a joke, why do you want to sue the emperor?" The prince felt that this matter was absolutely inseparable from her.

Xu Yuyao didn't make a fool of herself either: "She wrote poems and scolded Xie Bai for being a monkey, so Xie Bai wrote poems and scolded him back."

Prince:  …

I didn't expect Xie Bai to be such a person.Regarding the wedding dress, Xie Bai's performance made the prince think that he was showing weakness and goodwill, but today's behavior doesn't look like showing weakness.

Xie Bai probably guessed what the crown prince was thinking, so he said: "Princess Huiwan scolded her ministers in front of the princess, that is to say scolded the princess. As the princess's son-in-law, it is natural to help the princess regain face."

The prince was very surprised: he guessed what I was thinking, so he deliberately forgave my heart?Or did you explain this sentence in a crooked manner?

"Since that's the case, she is willing to sue, so tell her to sue over there."

After the prince left, it was time for dinner.

After dinner, it was completely dark.

A hot spring room was built in the princess mansion. It is not accurate to say that it is a hot spring, but a stove was built under this house, and the servants lit the fire outside, and the inside was like a hot spring.

"Come here, what are you doing so far away from me?" Xu Yuyao looked at Xie Bai who was sitting a foot away from her, and patted the water beside her with some dissatisfaction.

Xie Bai looked at her, and moved a little towards that side.

"What are you afraid of? I won't eat you." Xu Yu Yao said.

Xie Bai's neck turned red, he didn't know if it was from the heat, or he thought of something embarrassing.

"I'll count to three, and if you haven't come by the time I finish counting, I'll go over to your side." Xu Yuyao hooked the corner of her mouth, "But if I go over to your side, I don't guarantee that I will eat you .”

Hearing this, Xie Bai quickly moved over.

Seeing her coming obediently, Xu Yuyao was very satisfied: "Turn around, let me see the injury on your back."

"It's about to heal." After finishing speaking, Xie Bai felt as if he was looking forward to what Xu Yuyao said last night after the injury was healed, so he quickly explained, "His Royal Highness's medicine is very effective."

Xu Yuyao didn't expect to go up that floor, but just looked at the injury on her back and felt depressed for a while.

In fact, Xu Yuyao knew that whether she looked at it or not, Xie Bai's injury would gradually heal, but she still wanted to look at it, and wanted to punish herself with the heartache she felt when seeing Xie Bai's injury.

If he had left Xie Bai in the princess mansion that day, why would he have been hurt like this?

"Your Highness, is the injury too ugly?" After Xie Bai turned around, Xu Yuyao remained silent.

She has seen the marks on her arm, it is ugly, and it is similar on her back.

"No." Xu Yuyao raised her hand, and gently touched her back, from her shoulders down, stroking every red mark.
