C173 Princess Orchid(3)

Huan Yiyan seemed to understand the situation as he completed his mother's orders, quietly put down his cup, and quietly asked the emperor to leave the hall ahead of time under the sullen gaze of the empress. The reason was that he suddenly felt unwell, and was afraid that if he did not rest well, he would delay the great event of accompanying the princess out of the parade and hunting tomorrow.

The Empress gritted her teeth, but she could not reprimand him too much in such an occasion. She listened to the Emperor's words of understanding, telling him to rest well, and not miss tomorrow's hunt. If there was a knife in her eyes, she would definitely cut two holes in her beloved child.

Under the watchful gaze of the crowd, Gu Qingruo's movements became more and more hurried. Her movements were so beautiful that they resembled the blossoming of summer flowers, and her movements were like the blossoming of a lotus.

On the other hand, Xiao Yiyan's eyes were hazy, and his expression was gloomy. He silently walked out of the side door of the hall.

Under the shadow of the tree, two figures, one big and one small, were looking into the hall in a daze.

When Xiao Yiyan saw them, he walked closer and stopped in surprise. Only then did he realize that it was Fu Gouyu and the Ninth Prince Xiao Yimin, who had not shown up in any bustling environment.

"Min'er, Fu Gouyu, what are you two doing here?"

A hint of panic flashed through Fu Gouyu's eyes. She subconsciously hugged Xiao Yi Mi tightly in her embrace and said softly, "Min'er heard that Princess Mu's name had left her sleeve and wanted to come to the capital to take a look. I … I had to bring him. We... We're only going to look out and we're going to go back. "

"Since the mosquitoes and bugs are causing trouble outside during the summer night, why don't Fu Gongyu bring him in?"

"No, Min'er, let's go back."

Xiao Yi was only twelve years old, but he looked whiter and thinner than his peers. However, his pair of large, black eyes were bright and clear, not like he had been suffering from a long illness since he was young. He looked back at the hall with reluctance, obviously unwilling to leave.

Xiao Yi Yan looked at Xiao Yi Min again. In fact, Fu Yu was probably frightened by the child's illness when he was six years old, and anyone who felt a headache would feel extremely nervous, as if they were on guard outside the city walls. Xiao Yi Yan never let Xiao Yi Min out of the Zi Ling Palace, so Xiao Yi Yan rarely saw this young brother of his.

"Fu Gongyu, I don't see anything wrong with that. You might be too worried about his health, so you should let him out for some fresh air sometimes. For example, entertaining Princess Xi Lin tonight, you should let him have a look …"

"No no no, we …" We'll go back right now! " Fu Gongyu seemed to become even more flustered. She hugged Xiao Yi Min tightly, and despite his reluctance, left hurriedly along the dark path of the palace.

Xiao Yiyan was just about to remind them to pick up the lights and leave, but when he remembered that Fu Yu's gaze towards his contained not only panic but also wariness and hostility, he couldn't help but sigh lightly. He shook his head in puzzlement and stopped thinking about it.

In fact, Fu Ge was a gentle and charming Southern Beauty. Although her appearance was not second to none in the palace, her delicate and refined temperament was inexplicably lovable. This kind of woman would give men a strong desire to protect her, as if she was a weak and fragile mountain palace in the wind that could be destroyed at any time.

However, such a delicate, delicate, and even somewhat cowardly character was exactly what Xiao Yiyan didn't like.

Unknowingly, his thoughts were in a mess as he arrived at the imperial garden. Suddenly, he stopped in his tracks, and looked around. Around him were all kinds of flower trees, and not a single thread of light from the palace lanterns could be seen.

Xia Feng gently caressed his skin, giving him a slight feeling of coolness. He casually found a long stone bench and sat down.

He carelessly brushed away a few petals that fell to his side, then lazily laid down, letting the blue slate's coolness wash away a trace of the summer heat from his body.

"Hey, aren't you going to look at that move? What are you doing here by yourself?"

Xiao Yiyan had just closed her eyes when he heard the sound. He suddenly opened her eyes and looked at the young girl in front of his with surprise.

Dressed in a light purple brocade palace attire, the lily dress was covered in fragmented flowers. Under the moonlight, it was hard to see her clearly. One could only see that she was extremely elegant and had a bit of an intimidating aura. She seemed too capricious and willful.

"Who are you?" He had never seen this type of palace uniform before, and this young lady was also very unfamiliar.

Even though the moonlight was hazy, one could still see the new appearance of her face. She was as pretty as a painting, and even though she was only a palace maid, she still couldn't cover up her exceptional charm and charm.

"I am Princess Xi Lin …" The close-quarters palace maid, Jing Yuan.

"Oh …" Xiao Yiyan let out a long sigh and was inwardly surprised. Could it be that the palace maids from the west had no manners? They knew that he was a prince, yet they still called him 'hey'.

"Who are you?" Jing Yuan asked.

"You … Don't know who I am? " Xiao Yiyan suddenly didn't want to reveal her identity. This little palace maid's face wasn't repulsive, and his words seemed a bit interesting. If he were to speak out about his identity, then he might scare her to the point of losing color.

Jingyuan shook his head. In fact, she was certain that this Prince Chen had spent the entire night peeking at Princess Mo, and there was no one else in his eyes. Otherwise, how could he not remember her after standing behind Princess Lan Xun for so long?

Xiao Yi Xiu remembered that his posture was quite indecent and sat up. He gave her half of the seat before patting the stone bench. "I'm just one of the … It's just a young eunuch. "

Jing Yuan sat down beside him and looked at him curiously, "You liar, your clothes are so luxurious and your bearing is so extraordinary, how can you be a eunuch?"

Xiao Yi Xiu looked down. Luckily, he wasn't wearing the Eight Python Court uniform today. Instead, he was wearing an ordinary suit with the patterns of the sea and clouds. This was also due to his deliberate negligence. He smiled faintly and said, "Hmm, eunuchs have posts as well. I am a … "This is just a small official."

"Oh, the biggest one among the officials is called the Medallion. But you're so young, don't tell me you have the Medallion?"

"Ugh …" The singing and dancing in the hall are so beautiful, why did you come out? " He said something to the right.

"Does it look good? I didn't pay attention to it. What sort of move from the sleeve that could move the capital, in my opinion, was only mediocre. "The dignified Princess Mu is also learning how to dance as an acrobat in the teaching field. She has disgraced her identity." Jingyuan's smooth cherry red lips had a hint of disdain.

Xiao Yiyan couldn't help but laugh. That's right, he didn't understand why so many people were so amazed by Gu Qingruo's technique of leaving her sleeve.

"Where is your clan's Princess Lan Xun?" I can see that she was amazed by what she saw. "

Jingyuan pouted, "Too little."

And then he realized that it was too disrespectful to describe his princess like this. He changed the subject: "We don't like each other, but we can't stop others from liking her. There will always be people to admire her. That's why her name is in the capital, right?"

"Yeah, three..." Back then, Prince Mu was surprised that she was hired to return home because she waved the capital's master around. "
