Chapter 48
Zhao Xing took Jiang Wan to stroll outside all morning, and he sent him back to the Prince's Mansion when it was almost time for dinner.

The two entered the mansion from the long street at the back door, because Jiang Wan said that Mrs. Jiang would not be in the upper courtyard at this time, nor in the front hall, and most likely she was nesting at the side of the Nuan Pavilion. Take the wrong path.

She wanted to go with her, but was coaxed away by Zhao Xing.

Mrs. Jiang was indeed in Nuan Pavilion, and she also knew that Zhao Xing didn't bring Jiang Wan to practice at all today, but went out to play with the little girl instead.

She never cared about these things, anyway, these years, Zhao Xing has been taking more little girls, they are elders, and they are very leisurely.

Hearing that he was coming, Mrs. Jiang asked the girl to lead him into the warm pavilion.

She glanced out of the corner of her eye and saw the blue color of his silver fox cloak, and said, "Erlang's color is so beautiful, you should make more of it, and you should wear less heavy purple like Buddha's blue. It makes people look old-fashioned.”

Zhao Xing smiled and called Aunt Huang, and after meeting her, he saw that she had a peach red jacket, most of which was embroidered, and he could vaguely see the background of a hundred birds chasing a phoenix.

Now she is sewing thread, and the gold and silver threads are twisted into one strand, and they are following the hem of the phoenix tail.

With such a delicate color, you don't even need to think about who it is for. He smiled more and more: "Aunt Huang is so handy, you love me too, so make me two suits tomorrow, and I promise to wear them every day."

Jiang Shi was amused by him: "I haven't been doing needlework for many years, just thinking that I haven't made a dress for Zhuzhu for several years, and I don't like to wear the white rabbit fur that your uncle bought a while ago, so I don't like wearing it." I want to make a jacket for Zhuzhu. Your clothes? Forget it, you want to wear it every day, but I don’t dare, the saint is probably jealous, why don’t you bother me every day?”

Zhao Xing had already sat down on the high chair next to him, a few jokes were enough, and he didn't plan to follow Jiang Shi.

Jiang took a needle, put the sewing basket and jacket aside together: "Are you okay?"

Zhao Xing nodded and said yes: "Didn't Aunt Huang know that the Queen Mother is going to give me a marriage?"

She raised her eyebrows: "Didn't you say you didn't like A Yuan in Hanzhang Palace yesterday?"

Zhao Xing sighed, "I didn't come here for this..."

Jiang Shi squinted at him: "Then who are you here for?"

The Gu family has no girls, but the Pei family of Hedong has two, but they are younger than Jiang Wan.

Jiang Wan is the only one in Peiguo's mansion.

Zhao Xing was silent for a moment, and Jiang sneered: "Hasn't the saint already taken a fancy to the child of Liu Guogong's mansion? It's not going to happen again?"

"Don't make fun of me." Zhao Xing hangs down, slowing down for a while, "The matter of Liu's wife's usury, the eldest brother returned to the mother's queen. Auntie, I..."

He has always been straightforward and honest, and it was Zhao Yu who managed him well. A gentleman is magnanimous, especially in front of the elders, he can do whatever he wants, and he should speak out if he really doesn't want to say it. Hesitating is outrageous.

This is the second time.

Jiang Shi became more and more sure of what she was thinking, tapped her fingertips on the back of her hand, and simply opened the mouth for him: "You watched Zhuzhu grow up, so why didn't you think about it more than ten years ago, last year the government gave her You didn't even say a word about marriage with Saburo, but now you're suddenly thinking about it?

Erlang, among your elders, your uncle and I are the most reasonable, right?Just tell me what you have, no need to hesitate, you are all sitting in front of me, isn’t that the only thing left and right? "

Before coming, Zhao Xing actually thought of a lot of excuses.

He would not be speechless in front of his elders, since he was not like that when he was young.

But for some reason, when I really saw Aunt Huang, those words were all blocked in my mouth, and I couldn't say it.

Instead, he breathed a sigh of relief at the moment: "Didn't Aunt Huang still feel that she has a deep love for Saburo?"

He looked up, and the mood swings in his eyes were not too big: "On the night Father bestowed the wedding, I was very drunk in the palace, and my elder brother carried me back to him by the Taiye Pond. Later, I prevaricated, and he I was afraid that my father and queen mother would find out that they were going to punish me, so I hid it for me."

Jiang frowned, her face sank.

Although he is not a teetotaler, every year, even at the palace banquet on New Year's Eve, he would have no more than three or two glasses, and he would never drink too much.

Zhao Xingneng was so drunk... She really hadn't thought about it.

"So, you have long had a deep-rooted love for Zhuzhu, but you hid it deeply and concealed it well, and you have fooled all of us." Jiang sneered, which is not considered sarcasm, but it has a bit of yin and yang. , "Last year she got a marriage gift, and you feel that she has only Saburo in her heart and eyes, so you are so great, and you took a big step back to fulfill her happiness?"

"Auntie..."

"Stop talking nonsense!"

When Jiang slapped the small case, she was obviously angry: "I'm someone from here, who are you looking at?"

She looked at Zhao Xing coldly, he was seventeen, and he was still a young man in terms of age, but his usual behavior was too dignified and refined, and he was a little old-fashioned, not like seventeen, but like a 27-year-old who had been walking outside for many years and had been alone for a long time. Sir.

"Your uncle was in those days, if you can't write a letter, you can't do it. He was named the county king, and the next month he said he would choose the county princess. His virtues, all the young ladies who have some lintels don't want to marry, even if there is a county princess. Here, people also look down on him, but I am willing, I will not marry unless he is!"

Jiang's voice was cold, and even the eyes that looked at her looked like ice: "I, Aye, was so angry that I wanted to kill me, but my brother stopped me, my mother persuaded me, and even my sister cried and pleaded for me.

Aye said, there are so many good men in the world, and the girls of the Duke Pei's mansion will never marry mediocre and incompetent people, even if he is the flesh and blood of the Tian family!

I didn't think so at the time.There is only such a person in this life, whether he is good or not, there is no need for others to say, even if Aye beats me to death, I will definitely marry him.

Before I got married, I starved for three full days without taking a drop of water. Later, the medical officer said that if I hadn’t had a strong body, those three days would have killed me.

In this way, Aye was unable to persuade me, and went to the late emperor to ask for a marriage. I married into Changping County Prince's Mansion in a glorious manner, and became your imperial aunt.

Erlang, you adore someone wholeheartedly, but tell me that you are willing to give her up to your younger brother. Is it because you haven't woken up, or I haven't woken up? "

"But I'm not the emperor's aunt, and Zhuzhu is not the emperor's uncle."

Zhao Xing calmed down instead.

He understood what Aunt Huang was upset about, and even more what she was questioning.

The things she said in her mouth were said by her mother when she was young, and although she didn't say them anymore, he still remembered them.

"You and the emperor's uncle are childhood sweethearts. You have to marry him. I think it's also because of you that the emperor's uncle didn't marry." He stood up and knelt down in front of Jiang Shi. I have kept her in my heart for seven years, and I have never stopped loving her for a day, but she doesn't love me, so is it possible to force her to be tied to me and ruin her life?"

He shook his head with a firm face: "I can't do it. If she has a lover, I'd rather fulfill her."

Jiang Shi was shocked: "You said... seven years?"

Zhao Xing gritted his voice and said: "When I was ten years old, in the county prince's mansion, she jumped from the sweet-scented osmanthus tree. At that time, although she didn't know what life and death meant, I did.

Aunt Huang, I didn't choose Zhuzhu, a girl I almost brought up with my own hands, because my father and queen mother wanted to choose my concubine.

If you don't believe me, you can tell me what you need to do to believe me, even if it is to prove it, I will never blink an eye! "
