Chapter 654 He held the world in front of her

Xiao Tingchen packed the food box, "Come here."

A guard appeared, cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness?"

"Fill up the pond in Qinglian Palace for me."

The pond is running water, he guessed that Xie Rongjing swam in from outside the palace along the running water.

The guards took the order and immediately called for people to fill the pond.

Su Jiu was surprised, "It's so good, what are you filling the pond for? Those lotus leaves are growing just right, and they're all starting to form flower buds!"

Xiao Tingchen picked up the food box, gave her a condescending look, and stepped out of the gazebo.

Su Jiu limped after him, "Is it because of Xie Rongjing?"

Xiao Tingchen did not speak.

"You know very well that I have nothing to do with him, but you want to get angry with me! Xiao Tingchen, are you naive?"

"I am the Regent, and I am what I say."

"You are overbearing and unreasonable!"

"What are you doing to me?"

Su Jiu was so angry that his heart ached, because he was chasing too fast, his ankle hurt so badly that he fell to the ground suddenly.

Xiao Tingchen stopped and looked back.

His little princess's skirt was dragging to the floor, she was covering her ankles with tears in her eyes, her little face was as delicate and beautiful as a lotus flower, she looked extremely pitiful.

After a moment of silence, he still turned back.

He knelt down in front of Su Jiu, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes for her, and said lightly: "Su Xiaojiu, you promise me that you will never see Xie Rongjing again, never talk to other men, and never criticize what I do. I will let you out of Qinglian Palace. Whether it is the imperial palace or Chang'an, you are the regent princess, and everyone has to look up to you."

Su Jiu lowered his head.

The side face was white and tender in the sun, as if transparent, and the fine sweat beads on the tip of the nose could be clearly seen.

Dai Qing frowned slightly, her face was obviously wrinkled, but she was still too beautiful.

"I can't even meet the conditions you asked..." She endured the pain and stood up with difficulty, "Xiao Tingchen, I don't care about the title of Regent Princess at all, and I don't care about others looking up to me. What I want, It was never like that."

She mustered up her courage, looked deeply at Xiao Tingchen, and then limped towards the bedroom.

Xiao Tingchen couldn't help tightening his hand holding the food box.

He watched Su Jiu go away, obviously it was the season of splendid flowers and plants, but her back was particularly desolate and thin.

The breeze blew past my ears, leaving behind a rustling sound.

Xiao Tingchen suddenly remembered that when he was young, he had stayed up all night to make a pair of black and blue wooden clogs for Su Jiu.

At that time, he was just a bastard from a wealthy family, and he didn't have much money on hand, so he couldn't afford to give her too expensive gifts.

And now, he is the regent with all the power.

But she didn't like the treasures and jewelry he held in front of her, and she didn't like the title he bestowed on her, and she didn't like the country he built with all his might.

But in his eyes, this is the best thing he can come up with.

"Su Xiaojiu, what exactly do you want?"

The dog man is good at calculation and conspiracy, and climbed to his current position by stepping on the bones and blood of countless people.

He counted the sky and the earth, but he couldn't figure out Su Jiu's heart.

Can only sigh in vain in the wind.

……

It is the Dragon Boat Festival.

Su Jiu stayed in Qinglian Palace all day long, and Bai Lu and Shuang Jiang were still serving her.

Xiao Tingchen hadn't been to Qinglian Palace for six whole days, which caused Shuangjiang to moan and sigh all day long, feeling trembling that his young lady had fallen out of favor.

"Miss," Shuang Jiang was standing in the palace garden with a broom in his arms, "Why don't you go and show the master that you are nice? The master likes you so much, and seeing that you are obedient, he will definitely change his mind!"

Su Jiu sat under the eaves of the palace and sewed a pair of embroidered shoes. He laughed and said, "Bai Lu, look at Shuang Jiang, she started nagging again. A few days ago, Xiao Tingchen ordered her to be punished for thirty days. Not only did she not blame him, but she also missed him." Hurry up and come to Qinglian Palace... I really don't remember to eat but not fight!"

"This servant is for your own good," Shuang Jiang was holding the broom, with brows raised, "every time this servant goes to the imperial dining room to get food, the group of goblins will say that the princess has fallen out of favor, and that the master will marry another girl sooner or later. It’s for watching people order dishes, and the Imperial Dining Room deliberately skipped our meals these days, and you have to exchange them for jewelry, this servant is so angry!”

Su Jiu smiled lightly.

She carefully embroidered the upper, "There must be a compromise between me and him. But I think I have done nothing wrong, so it is impossible for me to compromise."

The style of early summer is light.

Her voice carried the immaturity of a young girl, but also contained inexhaustible gentleness.

One stitch at a time, no rush, just like embroidery time.

Finally finished embroidering the pattern, she lowered her head and bit off the silk thread.

Dark eyelashes concealed the thoughts in his eyes.

Compared with the small actions of the imperial dining room, she wanted to know how Xie Rongjing and Zhao Wuyang were doing now, and what they were planning secretly.

Seeing that she was not in a hurry, Shuang Jiang was so angry that he threw away the broom and put his hands on his hips, "It's true that the emperor doesn't worry about the eunuchs, ah, slaves don't worry about Miss from now on!"

The childlike words made Su Jiu laugh.

"Miss is seeing that she is about to fall out of favor, and she is so anxious that she can still laugh!" Shuang Jiang pulled Bai Lu angrily, "Let's go to the imperial dining room to bring dinner, and ignore her!"

Bai Lu looked at Su Jiu.

Su Jiu smiled and nodded, "Go ahead and be with her well, don't make her too anxious."

Not long after Bai Lu and Shuang Jiang left, there was a sudden sound of unlocking the closed palace door.

The imperial guards pushed open the palace gate, and a slim young girl appeared in Su Jiu's eyes.

Wearing a goose-yellow palace skirt, combing the concubine's hair in a bun, and sticking flowers between her eyebrows, her pretty posture is very fresh and beautiful.

There is a black mole the size of a sesame seed on the wing of the nose, which makes her look pretty and playful.

It was Li Yuheng.

Su Jiu raised his eyebrows.

This is really a rare visitor...

Ever since Li Yuheng became the emperor's concubine, they rarely interacted with each other again.

Today, I am afraid that the visitor is not good.

Li Yuheng came to the eaves with two maids in the palace, smiling softly, "I haven't seen Sister Su for a long time, and I miss you very much. It's not close to the Dragon Boat Festival, so I specially took some zongzi to satisfy Sister Su's hunger. Gold wire."

The maid serving her immediately presented the food box.

There are a few emerald green rice dumplings in the food box, which look extraordinarily delicate.

"This is the rice dumpling rewarded by the King Regent for the Dragon Boat Festival this year. Sister Su probably doesn't have it here." Li Yuheng couldn't hide her pride, "They say 30 years in the east of the river and 30 years in the west of the river. Jieyu of the third grade, when he wakes up, I may be able to sit in the position of imperial concubine in the future. Although sister Su was favored by her cousin in the past, but after all, my cousin got tired of playing with you, you can only be The fate of the next wife."

She walked to the steps, condescending, "Such a good rice dumpling, I'm afraid sister Su won't have the chance to eat it in the future."

Su Jiu was not surprised by favor or humiliation, and said indifferently: "I would like to thank Cousin Yuheng for making this trip."

Li Yuheng walked a few steps around her.

The next moment, she suddenly showed viciousness, and fiercely grabbed Su Jiu's painted hair from behind!
Su Jiu was caught off guard, staggered and fell to the ground!
