Imperial side

Chapter 24

"Nonsense, try it." Queen Wang personally plucked the silver lotus flowers from her ears, and replaced them with this pair.

"It really fits, right?" Queen Wang said, and then she found a pair of lotus flowers and a pair of gourds and gave them to her: "I used to wear these. The ones that will be given to you when you get married are the ones saved in the palace. "

Wang Zhi was very moved.I feel sorry for the Queen too.If she had a child of her own, she wouldn't have to love a niece so much, regardless of gender.

Although they are also related by blood, they will not be very close after all.

She thinks that no matter what happens in the future, I will take good care of my aunt.

Early the next morning, Xue Shaochong was rejected by his master again.

The master is also used to it, and the second prince is either not smart or not very caring.It's a shameless thing to say.

Sighing: "Think about it carefully. The second prince will get married next year, and he won't come to study anymore. It's just that you are the prince and the prince, and you will assist His Majesty in the future. How can you be so careless?"

"Yes." Xue Shaochong had a good attitude.

After class, Wang Zhi looked at him and smiled.Xue Shaochong pursed his lips: "Laughing at me?"

Wang Zhi shook his head.

"I'm hungry." Xue Shaochong didn't mean anything else, just hungry.

Before Wang Zhi could say anything, he said, "Go and eat in my hall."

He now lives in Chang'an Hall, which is not far from Xianju Hall.

It's not that Wang Zhi has never been there before, but he has never eaten in his palace.

Now that she was invited, she couldn't refuse.

Just ask, "Just the two of us?"

Nowadays, it is not very popular among people to avoid suspicion. You will know that such a big prince is still living in the harem.

It's just not to avoid suspicion, but it will be embarrassing.

Xue Shaochong hummed for a moment, but did not explain.

Wang Zhi had no choice but to follow.

Xue Shaochong is not talkative, but the maids and officials in his palace are not like that.

They are all talkative and laughable, and when they saw Wang Zhi, they all smiled and asked An to speak.

It is a pleasure to hear that the county chief has dinner here.

The leading palace man Fei Jishi, and the leading palace lady Xian Taoer were all very enthusiastic.

"The servants are going to prepare meals, and the girl will sit and talk with the second prince."

The layout of Xue Shaochong's palace is the same as that of other princes, nothing more than adding some other elements.For example, some animal skins and the like.

But not many, after all, he came to the Central Plains at such a young age, and he was not too attached to Xiliang's culture.

The third and fourth princes who lived here came back a step later and also came to say hello.

The biological mother of the third prince is the concubine Cui, and the biological mother of the fourth prince is the concubine Yang.

The third prince is nine years old this year, and he already looks like a teenager.The fourth prince is six years old, still young, and he just moved here this year.

The two of them have always kept their second brother at arm's length.Not that there is any opinion.Although the princes are bound to compete for the throne, they are still young.The main reason for keeping them at arm's length is lack of communication.

After all, with Xue Shaochong like this, he looks awkward and indifferent, and it is easy to freeze a word with him, and it is true that not everyone can get along with him.

The group of friends who grew up together have known each other for a long time, and those who are younger than him can't understand.

The two princes came here mainly to greet Wang Zhi.

Although they are the princes, Wang Zhi definitely has status in the palace.

"Sister Jiaojiao rarely comes to our place."

They also live in the Chang'an Hall, and they are also considered landlords, and that's why they came to say hello.

"Yeah, it's true that there are few people here. The third prince and the fourth prince just finished school, right? It's a bit hot today, are you sweating? Hurry up and change clothes, don't catch the cold later." Wang Zhi smiled.

"Yes, then we'll go back." The third prince looked at the fourth prince with a smile.

The fourth prince nodded: "Go back."

The two saluted Xue Shaochong again: "Second brother, let's go."

Xue Shaochong just nodded.

After all, the emperor was a man of age, and he added these children later.There is also Xu Zhaorong who gave birth to the third princess, but she is only four years old, and her health is not very good, so she doesn't come out very often.

In recent years, the harem has not given birth.

Wang Zhi was admiring a painting on the wall, which was painted by a not-so-famous artist in the previous dynasty.

Xue Shaochong suddenly asked: "Did the queen mother beat you?"

Wang Zhi let out a cry and turned her head: "My aunt never hits me."

"What's wrong with your neck?" Xue Shaochong asked calmly.

Wang Zhi was at a loss: "Is there anything wrong?" She rubbed her neck in confusion.

Qing Que came over to take a look, and there was indeed a red mark on the left side of her neck.Don't tell me, I don't know, it's really painful to touch it now.

"Is this clothes scratched? This one is new, and the collar is a little stiff."

It happened to be at the junction of the neck and collarbone, and it was invisible when covered by clothes. Wang Zhi touched the painting just now, and pulled it out when he lowered his arm.

Wang Zhi lowered his head and looked: "The reason why the clothes are made of silver thread?"

Qingque nodded: "Yes. Just go back and change."

Xue Shaochong had nothing to say this time, but thought she was too delicate.Clothes made of silver thread would scratch her skin.But is this considered beautiful skin?

He also thought that when he was a child in Xiliang, his nanny raised a pot of flowers.I don't even remember what flower it was, but I remember it was pink when it opened.

The nanny always said that this flower is too delicate, and it will not bloom if one cannot protect it.It will wither if it is not watered, and its roots will rot if it is watered too much.The yellow leaves will drop if they are exposed to the sun, and they will wilt if they are not exposed to the sun.

So did Wang Zhi.

With this understanding, Xue Shaochong felt that Wang Zhi was very delicate again when eating.

She doesn't eat much, and she eats very delicately.

Take so many bites and chew so many times when you eat a piece of fish.Quiet and relish.

After a meal, Xue Shaochong watched it very interestingly and happily, and he even ate an extra bowl.

But Wang Zhi was so tired from eating, she didn't pay attention to it in the first half, but found out in the second half, this man was staring at her.

After finally finishing eating and serving tea, Wang Zhi asked, "Why are you staring at me?"

"Ah."

Wang Zhi...

Forget it, don't ask.

After eating and drinking enough, he rested in his hall for a while, then got up and went back to Xianju hall.

I changed my clothes as soon as I got back, and just after I changed, I saw Fei Jishi came, holding a box of ointment: "This is vital ointment, you can apply it on it. You can use it no matter what hurts you in the future, but if you see blood, you can use it." It can’t be used anymore, I’m afraid it will leave scars.”

Wang Zhi was funny: "Isn't it necessary to use it with twists and turns? My little one is that the clothes are worn out, so tomorrow will be fine if I don't need anything."

"It's rare that our second prince is enlightened, so you can use it. The imperial physician also said that it can be used." Fei Jishi said seriously.

Wang Zhi had no choice but to accept it: "Go back and tell your second prince that I will definitely use it."

"Yes." Fei Jishi left contentedly.

Sometimes, being assimilated is really the way to go.Just like the slaves around Xue Shaochong, most of them are from the Central Plains.

Naturally, it will be biased towards the Central Plains people.

As for Fei Jishi, he doesn't like Xiliangyue either.

　For Xue Shaochong, he has not yet understood the relationship between men and women, but he has basic aesthetics.That is Wang Zhi.

　　And he is not enlightened, but he understands that Wang Zhi is a fiancée, and other fiancées have templates, such as sewing or something.When people give their fiancée something, he will also give it and care about it.He thinks this is standard.

　　This is probably the advantage of childhood sweethearts.
