Chapter 35

"I don't know this girl... Is she Miss Xu from the town government?"

He is usually a person who is not good at words. At this time, he looks a little flustered when asked, but there is a look of expectation in his eyes.

Xu Mingyi nodded somewhat unexpectedly: "yes, the minister's daughter is Xu Mingyi of the town government."

She had been to the palace before, and seemed to have met the crown prince, but she didn't expect him to remember herself.

But thinking of her face, Miss Xu soon felt that she didn't seem to be so "unexpected.".

"It's really miss Xu..." the prince looked at her with bright eyes: "old general Xu defeated the Huns and won another war! I have always admired old general Xu. If I can practice martial arts, I'd like to --"

"Your Highness..."

The eunuch on one side gently interrupted the boy with a tone of reminder.

Your Highness has little contact with people because of his childhood illness. On weekdays, he is too introverted and doesn't mention it. If he is a little excited, he is easy to talk nonsense and lose his appearance

The prince regained consciousness and swallowed the rest of his words.

It was he who forgot what his father had told him.

Xu Mingyi looked at him, smiled and said, "the minister's daughter thanked the prince for her grandfather."

Hearing this, the prince's embarrassed face eased slightly, nodded at her, and left with the eunuch.

Xu Mingyi looked at the boy's too thin back and slightly straightened the corners of his mouth.

She has also heard that his Royal Highness the crown prince is not only weak, but also mediocre in qualification and introverted and cowardly in temperament - these can not even be called shortcomings, which are not rare. But when he is now the crown prince, it means it is difficult to shoulder great responsibilities.

The courtiers were secretly dissatisfied with the prince, but they couldn't say more in the open.

Only because emperor Qingming had few children, only two princesses and one died early before the prince.

It took a long time to hope for such an eldest son, who is now his only son. Therefore, between the emperor's courtiers and the crown prince, there was a situation in which neither of them had a choice.

This balance seems to be breaking after the good news that Rong Guifei, who has just been in the palace for three years, was pregnant.

But it's just a secret. No one can predict whether Princess Rong has a man or a woman in her belly, and even if she is the prince, whether she can support her or not, and even whether she will be worse than the crown prince today. These are unknown for the time being and need to be seen slowly in the future.

Therefore, she wondered, if the truth was not as simple as it seemed, then... Who would be so anxious?

Xu Mingyi had mixed thoughts all the way. As the eunuch who led the way out of the garden, he saw Cui and Wen looking there.

"Why are you walking so slowly? I think you're lost."

Cui was relieved and said, "I can't wait any longer. I'm going back to find it."

Less than a few people explained, Wen urged in a warm voice, "let's go. Don't delay."

The party was led to Jiaotai hall.

At the beginning of the palace, there was a lamp in the palm. Under the reflection of the glass lamp, the palace rebuilt for the Queen's birthday was towering and magnificent. The rows of palace women in pink clothes filled in with trays, making people feel like they were in the fairy palace.

As soon as Xu Mingyi stepped on the jade steps of the main hall, he heard the smiling voice of the girl from the corridor above.

"... it's Miss Xu! I said. Just now, I saw a girl wearing apricot colored ring cloud gauze in the garden. At that time, I thought it was the princess you."

Xu Mingyi raised his eyes and looked at the girl in water red dress, a pair of eyes that seemed to be waiting for a good play.

It was Xia Xi.

The youngest daughter of Xia Tingzhen, the first aide of the dynasty, was also the person Zhan Yunzhu married in the last life.

Over the years, she has rarely thought of the things that disagreed with Xia Xi since she was a child. In the end, these little things are really not worth mentioning compared with the family destruction and death she experienced later.

But this did not prevent her from getting back the feeling of tit for tat when she looked at such a pair of annoying eyes.

At this time, the Phoenix eyed girl standing next to Xia Xi with a slim figure and a WAN fan in her hand is the famous Princess Yufeng in Beijing.

As for the famous method, it's nothing more than arrogance and domineering. There's only one face in the house.

Such a person can't see others wearing similar clothes to her, especially on the occasion of the Queen's birthday.

Not to mention that Xu Mingyi gave birth to an excessively beautiful face. The same clothes and jewelry on her will always be raised by a few points.

Seeing Princess Yufeng squinting at Xu Mingyi, Xia Xi could almost foresee what would happen next - just before Xu Mingyi came, when she told Princess Yufeng that someone also wore a ring cloud veil, the other party's face was very ugly immediately.

You should know that on such occasions, your women will prepare at least two clothes before they go out. It should be to make people pay attention to the clothes of other expensive women, especially those who are as valuable as Princess Yufeng——

It's strange that Xu Mingyi has always been arrogant and used to it. He was born rough and had a dull mind.

"It's her..."

Princess Yufeng hissed, and her eyes slowly took back from Xu Mingyi and turned to return to the hall.

Xia Xi couldn't help being stunned.

... that's it?

It's not like Princess Yufeng's style at all.

Is it because today is the Queen's birthday party and doesn't want to cause trouble?

... she's lucky!

When Xia Xizheng was unwilling, she saw that Xu Mingyi had stepped on the jade step and walked fast and steadily. After catching up with Princess Yufeng a few steps, she unexpectedly stretched out her hand to hold Princess Yufeng's arm.

Princess Yufeng stopped and looked at her in surprise.

Xia Xi widened her eyes slightly.

Seeing that Princess Yufeng had not embarrassed her just now, did Xu Mingyi, a cheeky fool, take the opportunity to curry favor with her?

But I don't think about Princess Yufeng's temper... Isn't it ugly!

"What are you doing..." Princess Yufeng pulled her arm back with a strange look on her face.

However, Xu Mingyi seriously and brazenly held the man again, looked at the girl in front of him with a smile and opened his mouth.

"Jiao Jiao, long time no see."
