Chapter 97
Xianhui's heart was beating wildly with a "thump", and there was chaos inside. She didn't understand why she met Lu Jian in the Jokhang Temple?It's just a coincidence!I didn't care about thinking too much, I just wanted to get out of here as soon as possible.

But Lu Jian walked over quickly and called out in a low voice, "...Xianhui."

Xianhui pretended not to hear, pushed aside the plum blossoms, and prepared to go around to the other side of the path.

Lu Jian raised his voice, "Xianhui! Don't leave yet."

Xian Hui quickly stopped in his tracks, not daring to move, fearing that if he left, it would be bad if he shouted louder.

"Xianhui." Through the flower window, Lu Jian's clear voice sounded from behind, "I heard that you specifically begged for mercy in front of the emperor, and let Xiaohe Princess make peace with me, which caused Prince Jing to quarrel with you."

With his back turned to him, Xian Hui hurriedly said: "It's nothing, it's just a few quarrels between husband and wife."

He took the blame for himself in the past, and he paid him back a favor. Since there is no fate in this life, then he owes nothing.Now that he is married, no matter how many conflicts he has with Gao Chen, Lu Jian is not someone he can confide in, so he said anxiously: "Have you reconciled with Princess Xiaohe? Why haven't you left the capital yet? Hurry up , hurry back to Jiangdu."

"I'm sorry." Lu Jian said in a sad voice, "Xian Hui, you are all troubled by me."

Xian Hui was so anxious that she wanted to stomp her feet, gritted her teeth, and purposely scolded in a cold voice, "Don't be sentimental! I asked Princess Xiaohe to reconcile with you, because I didn't want to get involved in your grievances, and wanted to send you away. Yes, don’t see it again.” Disdainful and mocking, “You don’t even look in the mirror, I’m Princess Jing now, what are you? Talk to me, it’s all because of you.”

"Xianhui..."

"Also, you remember." Xianhui didn't look back at him at all, and was afraid that he would continue to speak, so she interrupted sharply, "Xianhui is not something you can afford, so don't try to get close to me again , the farther away from me the better, hurry up!"

Lu Jian whispered behind him: "Xianhui! Listen to me..."

Xian Hui didn't want to hear a word anymore, and said, "If you don't want to kill me, then shut up!" Anxiously, she shuttled away from the plum blossoms, pretending that snow was falling on the plum blossoms, spilling a white and shallow snow fog.

From behind, Lu Jian looked at the snowy mist and sighed softly.

Not knowing whether he was sighing for himself, Xianhui, or someone else, he turned around, threw the jade flute in his hand on the ground, and the elegant figure gradually disappeared into the distance.

On the other side, Xianhui was dizzy from being raped by plum blossoms, circling around, but in the end she couldn't get out anyway.She looked up and looked forward, wondering... Where are Nanny Li and the others?Just as he was confused, there was a loud sound of stepping on the snow behind him.

"Where are you going?" A cold man's voice sounded, blocking her way.

Xianhui turned her head, saw the person coming, and immediately took a step back in fright, "My lord..." She looked around in shock, "When did you come? I don't even know."

"Really?" Gao Chen brushed aside Yin Hongmeihua, with a half-smile, "Then do you welcome me? Or not."

Xian Hui restrained her expression, "Why does the prince ask such a question?"

Gao Chen was wearing a dark purple brocade robe with dark patterns, and the purple awns shone in the sunlight, making his eyes dim and blurred.He looked at her condescendingly, his thin lips curled gracefully, but his tone was cold, "I was still worried about you in vain, and I came to the Jokhang Temple to look for you, but I didn't want to..."

He raised his finger to the flower window, "I'm bothering you."

Xianhui's eyes were horrified, and her heart suddenly "thumped".

He must have come a long time ago and has been watching for a while. Even if he couldn't see Lu Jian behind the window, he must have seen someone.I don't know if Lu Jian has left?If Gao Chen catches her, I'm afraid... there will be a huge storm right away!I was flustered and didn't know how to deal with it.

"My lord." Chu Qifei quickly ran over, "The person behind has already left, and the guards haven't found him yet."

Xian Hui lowered her head and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Chu Qi handed a jade flute up, "My lord, that person dropped it."

Xianhui bit her lip and became nervous again.

"Oh?" Gao Chen narrowed his long and narrow phoenix eyes slightly, stretched out his slender fingers, and pinched the jade flute that was as thin as glass, his eyes dimmed, and the meaning in his eyes was unclear, "This jade flute is not bad. "

The faint jade-colored flute, light blue and slightly yellow, against the background of red plums, has a kind of pleasing to the eye.

He handed the jade flute to Xian Hui, "Is it pretty?"

Xianhui was silent.

"Hehe." The corners of Gao Chen's mouth curled up slightly, showing a sharp arc like a blade, "Do you know who owns this flute?" With a wave of his hand, he pushed Chu Qi away, "What a coincidence, I happen to recognize this jade flute master."

Xianhui's heart suddenly went cold.

"Okay, very good." Gao Chen's eyes were as dark as an abyss, and in the deepest part, there seemed to be a beast that could devour everything, radiating fierce light, "It seems that you really have an unforgettable old relationship, It’s so hard to get rid of the old one.” Throwing the jade flute into her hands, “That’s good! From now on, you can live with the jade flute.”

"Gao Chen!" Xianhui panicked, quickly threw the jade flute, and reached out to hold him, "It's not what you think."

"Save what you say to your lover." Gao Chen shook her hard and threw her on the snow, "Bang!" A burst of snow mist suddenly splashed, and the sky was filled with mist, and his tall and straight figure gradually go far.

Xianhui fell into the snow and was at a loss.

how so?Such a coincidence?This misunderstanding really got bigger today, if it is true, how can I explain it clearly?The relationship between husband and wife, which was already in jeopardy, was slashed again. If this continues, I'm afraid it will be completely broken.

No!What happened just now was just a misunderstanding, and it was also a misunderstanding that I pleaded for Lu Jian before.

There is nothing wrong between myself and Lu Jian, it is innocent, don't feel sorry for yourself now, go to Gao Chen to explain clearly.Thinking of this, he got up immediately, and hurriedly found Madam Li and the others, "Quick! I want to go back home."

Nanny Li was far away just now, so she didn't know what happened there.

But vaguely knew that the prince and the concubine had a dispute, and then Chu Qi took something, the prince threw it into the arms of the concubine, and left angrily.So he didn't dare to delay, and immediately protected Xianhui and got into the carriage, and said: "The prince took the initiative to come to the Jokhang Temple to look for the princess just now, just for the sake of reconciliation, we can't continue to quarrel."

"En." Xian Hui nodded.

Nanny Li persuaded again, "Princess, don't be in a hurry, if you have something to do, just tell the prince clearly."

This time, Xianhui nodded without confidence.

Gao Chen has been acting strangely lately, with a very bad temper, not like his usual calm demeanor.Perhaps, it was all kinds of grievances and grievances in the court that annoyed him.That's why he bullied himself like that that day and said so many ugly things.

Yes, it must be because he was in a bad mood.

Xianhui tried hard to convince herself, but she was wronged and worried, not knowing what she was about to face.

As soon as she got back to the palace, Xianhui grabbed the girl first and asked Gao Chen's whereabouts. When she heard that she had gone to the study, she hurriedly put on her skirt and rushed to the study.She was panting from running, and when she was standing at the entrance of the corridor to catch her breath, she couldn't help feeling sad.Gao Chen is upset, so he can bully himself like that. He just met Lu Jian by chance, but he has to apologize to him.

But... there is no other choice.

"Princess Wangfei." Chu Qi greeted her with a troubled expression on her face, "My lord is talking to Mrs. Ning at the moment, I'm afraid I don't have time to see you, why don't you go back first? When the lord is free, I'll run to the inner courtyard Send a message."

Xianhui's eyes flickered, and she looked over to the study, but nothing could be seen from the closed door.

Is it really Ning Yuxi who has something to do?Or did Gao Chen not want to see him?After thinking about it, that's all, why explain it out of his anger?Maybe if the explanation is not good, it will add fuel to the fire and make things worse.

Tomorrow, I'll dress myself up tomorrow, and then I'll make some soup and send it over.

"That's good." Xianhui forced a smile, "My lord is busy first, I'll come to see him at another time."

Said, can't help feeling sad for a while.

Under normal circumstances, no matter how busy Gao Chen is, he should sleep in the dormitory at night, and I will definitely see him——the husband and wife quarreling at the end of the bed, how many things can they talk about in bed?But he didn't come back at all, and came to look for him by himself, but he didn't see him behind closed doors.

Xianhui had no choice but to leave sadly.

In the study, Gao Chen was indeed talking to Ning Yuxi.

Since the series of decisions of rebellion, Ning Yuxi, the youngest staff member, has become Gao Chen's confidant and counselor, participating in the planning of almost every big and small matter, like a right-hand man.Even the relationship between master and servant is harmonious and close like friends.

Like at this moment, Ning Yuxi was sitting beside the stove in a calm posture, drinking hot tea leisurely, "Fragrant and sweet." She praised her, then pricked up her ears to listen outside, "Well, the princess seems to have left." Jokingly, "The prince called his subordinates as a shield, and he took the blame."

Gao Chen seemed to have never heard of it, and lowered his head to dial the tea, "Are you ready?"

"Okay." Ning Yuxi put down the jade porcelain cup in his hand, and smiled slightly, his eyes were filled with the warmth of a spring breeze, "But once Yuyao enters the mansion, the princess's side..." He pointed to the courtyard of the back house, "I'm afraid I'm going to be really sad."

Gao Chen said indifferently: "If you want to be sad, you have to live to be sad. If you lose your life, even if you want to be sad, you can't do it." His eyes seemed to be floating in the clouds, cold and distant, "It's better to be sad than dead .”

Ning Yuxi smiled and said: "I don't know what kind of temperament the princess is? It's okay to be harsh on Yuyao, but at least don't throw a knife with poison. As an older brother, it's okay to let my sister be wronged for a while, but I have to be right She is responsible for her safety, otherwise it would be unreasonable."

Gao Chen stared, "The princess is not that kind of person."

"Haha." Ning Yuxi smiled, "Okay, okay, my subordinates don't doubt the prince's sweetheart anymore."

Gao Chen didn't accept his jokes, but made a promise, "Don't worry, after the future, this king will make a proper arrangement for your sister, and won't wrong her." Then the corners of his lips curled up, "Of course , the premise is that this king can still live well."

Ning Yuxi said solemnly: "My lord will definitely go one step further."

Gao Chen waved his hand, and asked again: "How are Xiaohe's preparations going?"

Ning Yuxi replied: "It's under planning." After a pause, "You can't be anxious about that matter, you have to figure it out slowly. But don't worry, my lord, my subordinates must be well prepared before proceeding, and nothing will go wrong."

Gao Chenfeng narrowed his eyes slightly, and said coldly: "That's good."

Ning Yuxi looked at the coldness in his eyes, her heart skipped a beat.

Prince Jing deliberately interceded, and the reason for delaying the treatment of the crown princess was because of that important matter, while Princess Xiaohe's side was purely for the princess' personal grievances.For the sake of the concubine, Prince Jing did not hesitate to completely destroy his blood-related younger sister in one fell swoop.

But this matter has nothing to do with the political situation outside, it's just for the sake of the princess to avoid future troubles.

From this point of view, the princess is very important to the prince.Looking back, I have to remind my sister that it's okay to make small troubles, but you can't really offend the princess, lest you turn around and do your best to please.

In the early morning of the next day, Xianhui got up early to dress up.

She originally had a national beauty, and her jade face was like a bright moon rising on the sea. With a little decoration, and embellished with pearls, emeralds and golden hairpins, she was already bright and radiant.In addition, her hair color is like Dai, stacked into clouds, and her complexion is as white as jade. Against her pair of bright eyes, which are full of water, she is simply radiant.

"Princess, how about this peony thin shisha long skirt that drags the floor? Or a golden white butterfly wearing a floral cloud satin skirt? Which one should I wear with the top? What about the belt?" Yuzi asked in a stacked voice.

"Farewell." Xian Hui waved her hand, "It's not like going to a banquet in the palace, making it too gorgeous, it looks ridiculous instead."

I picked out a jacket with a light golden cloud pattern, which was elegant yet luxurious, and I also picked out a jade platform gold cup Lingbo narcissus skirt with a girdle of the same color.Dressed up, she is a beautiful and luxurious gentle little princess, wearing a nine-turn exquisite gold step rocker, dignified and generous, but also revealing a little childlike playfulness.

It is as if the Nine Heavens Xuannv is depicted in a splash-ink painting with a light brush, in the nobility, revealing the charm of Qingling and Yuxiu.

Seeing her, Nanny Li boasted, "That's right, it's still the princess who knows how to dress up."

"This dress is worn on the body of the concubine, just like the fairy in the painting." Yuzi and others looked straight at the master, and they all surrounded the master, laughing and praising, "The concubine will be free later!" , also pointing to us, dress up, go out and grow your face."

Xianhui smiled and said, "Okay, wait until I'm free."

The lacquered gold snack box brought by Yuzi contained five-spice mashed garlic eggplant, marinated bean curd, a bowl of Biyingying japonica rice porridge, and a plate of jujube rolls, melon seeds mixed with small pickles, which Gao Chen used to eat in the morning s things.There are three layers of food boxes, and the bottom is filled with crushed charcoal in a small copper bowl to keep it warm all the way, and it is still steaming hot when eating.

Xianhui led Yuzi and took the food box to the courtyard of the study.

At the gate of the yard, he left the jade seeds first, took the food box by himself and took a deep breath.Try to persuade yourself, don't think about the previous embarrassment for the time being, don't think about his humiliation, just think of him as a momentary act of anger.It's not too late to find him when the relationship is eased and the explanation is clear.

Thinking about it this way, I finally feel a little better.

Xianhui took a deep breath, helped the Nine Turns Linglong Golden Step Shaker on her temples, tried a most appropriate smile, and then carried the food box into the yard.Wei Wei is a little strange, unexpectedly there is no servant inside,——Could it be that Gao Chen is discussing confidential matters with his staff?So push people away?No, then someone should be guarding it.

Well, today happens to be a holiday, so you don't have to go to court.

Perhaps, he dozed off for a while and didn't wake up.

It would be better that way, he must be easier to talk when he is in a daze than when he is awake, I just need to coax him, maybe act like a coquettish, cry a little and he will be fine.Yeah, he's always been a calm, rational guy.He didn't believe that Xiaohe slandered him like that before, so how could he really misunderstand himself and Lu Jian?Yes, it must be so.

Xianhui's footsteps were a little lighter, and she went up the corridor, walking forward, and faintly heard the voice of someone talking.

Is there still someone?Feeling a little depressed in my heart, I thought about whether to put things down and go back first.

Suddenly, there was a sound of charming laughter from inside the room.

woman?Xianhui seemed to be struck by lightning.

Gao Chen never used maids by his side, only servants, where could he get a girl?There was a "thump" in the heart, and he quickly held his breath and walked over quietly.

"My lord..." It was indeed a delicate young woman who spoke, coquettishly said: "Go to sleep for a while."

Gao Chen didn't respond.

The woman said again: "I haven't woken up yet." Jiao Didi, with a bit of laziness and charm, "Otherwise, I will tell my brother later that you bullied him."

"Go to sleep." Gao Chen spoke with a hint of tenderness, "I'll just sit by the side and read a book."

That voice was heard in Xian Hui's ears, it was both familiar and strange. The familiar thing was that he had been so gentle to himself; the strange thing was that...he could also be gentle to other women.

The heart is undefended, like a sharp knife piercing the atrium, the pain spreads rapidly!
It turns out...it turns out that he didn't see him yesterday, not because he was angry, nor because Ning Yuxi was talking inside, but because he was accompanied by other women!Red sleeves add fragrance, warm fragrance nephrite, with a newcomer in your arms, how can you have the patience to see yourself again?It's ridiculous that I still dressed up specially today, and came here in a beautiful way, I'm simply a clown who wants to please the public!

"My lord." The delicate voice couldn't stop, and whispered, "Oh!" Then she giggled again, "Yuyao also wants to read, can Yuyao read in the lord's arms? My lord..."

Gao Chen chuckled lightly, bringing out a touch of connivance and pampering, "You, what a fool."
