Glory all the way

Chapter 34 The Prince
"Moying, step back."

The fan fell to the ground, and the prince woke up immediately. He looked back at Bai Yingluo who was stunned in place, and the personal guard who was standing up and glaring at him. The prince rubbed his eyes and shouted.

"Gu and this Miss Bai are acquaintances, you should step back."

The prince sat up and waved to the guard named Moying.

Mo Ying clasped his fists and bowed to the prince, turned his head and glanced at Bai Yingluo, Fang jumped out of the gazebo, it seemed that in the blink of an eye, Mo Ying disappeared, leaving Bai Yingluo standing at the door of the gazebo, as if in a Suddenly in a dream.

"Come in, what are you doing there?"

As if he didn't expect Bai Yingluo to have such a dull and clumsy appearance, the prince smiled with the corners of his lips curled up, with a hint of warmth in his eyes.

"My daughter, Bai Yingluo, has met His Highness the Crown Prince, His Highness is a thousand years old."

Bai Yingluo came back to her senses in an instant, bent down and bowed down and made a big salute.

"Be flat."

Shouting, the prince got up and walked to the guardrail and looked out a few times. Seeing that no one was around, he raised his eyebrows and looked at Bai Yingluo and asked, "Why did you come here alone? Did you have a quarrel with Si Ran? "

With a dazed expression, Bai Yingluo raised her head and gave the crown prince an annoyed sideways glance.

Thinking that the other party is the prince, Bai Yingluo bowed her head shyly, and replied softly: "The princess is the proud daughter of heaven, and she can't be more kind to Yingluo. How could we get into trouble? The princess said that she would go to the woods to enjoy the shade, so we went together Then came, and heard that the ninth princess had passed out due to heatstroke, so the princess hurried to Ninghua Palace to visit the ninth princess."

Glancing sideways, in the forest in the distance, you can vaguely see a few strands of bright colors occasionally interspersed with green, presumably it is the other ladies who accompanied Bai Yingluo, the prince withdrew his gaze, and walked to the side facing the sun Sitting down, she beckoned to Bai Yingluo, "Come and sit, aren't you tired standing there?"

"The ministers dare not."

Talking in fear, Bai Yingluo's feet moved slightly, and she moved a few steps inward, barely covering her body in a place where the sun could not shine.

As for the prince, seeing Bai Yingluo with a "courier's daughter" on the left and a "courier's daughter" on the right, his attitude couldn't be more respectful, and for a while he felt that it was meaningless.

Just like that, neither of the two said anything, and the pavilion suddenly fell silent.

Seeing the skirt fluttering in the breeze, after a while, Bai Yingluo felt her neck was a little sore, she raised her head slightly, but saw the prince turned his head to look at the rockery outside, Bai Yingluo breathed out inwardly, and moved slightly. for a moment.

The prince's gaze was long and deep, just looking at his side face like this, Bai Yingluo actually felt that there was still a little bit of loneliness in it, far less comfortable and casual than the him he met in the pavilion in the rain that day.

"His Royal Highness, is there something on your mind?"

Asking softly, seeing him turn his head to look at her, for some reason, there was a hint of joy, and Bai Yingluo's ears immediately turned red.

"Why, are you willing to talk to me, don't be awkward?"

The prince asked with a smile.

Such words, rather like flirting and scolding between lovers, the prince immediately felt a little inappropriate after he finished speaking, but thinking that Bai Yingluo was only 12 years old, and still at the age of unrequited love, the prince felt at ease.

And Bai Yingluo did not realize that something was wrong, she replied with a shy smile: "Your Highness is the crown prince, the person whom the courtiers look up to, how can he treat him like ordinary people? Last time, the courtiers were reckless, and I still look up to you." Your Highness Haihan."

After all, Bai Yingluo said cautiously: "Furthermore, what Your Highness said last time, you will never have the chance to meet alone in the future, so this subject will get carried away for a while, otherwise, you will definitely not talk to Your Highness like that."

There was actually a trace of resentment hidden in the words.

But just because of this trace of resentment, the prince's mood seemed to improve a lot in an instant, he looked up and smiled and said: "Yes, I said, you will never have the chance to see me alone in the future, just now, Mo Ying is here, You are not alone, are you?"

It was a word game.

Bai Yingluo raised her head to look angrily, but the prince's eyes were full of smiles. After a while, she suppressed her smile and said, "Don't worry, I didn't mean to be rude to you. On that day, I just wanted to talk to you without any burden. Just talk, just like this moment, and no matter what you say, no one will know, and no one will see that Gu talked to you, so you can rest assured."

After all, a few traces of sadness appeared on the prince's face.

But Bai Yingluo understood immediately.

Bai Yingluo remembered that when the sixth princess went to Jing'an Hou's mansion to visit a sick person, the two talked together in the Yi'an Pavilion. They are the most pitiful people in the world, because from the moment they are born, they are like birds imprisoned in a golden cage.

There is no freedom, no friends, and there will always be only two kinds of people around: those who cannot afford to offend and want to accompany them with a smile, and those humble and fearful slaves.

The sixth princess said that she was the first friend she made and the only one so far.

When the sixth princess said these words, Bai Yingluo felt a little sympathetic and pitiful, but thinking of Xuan Lang who loved her parents who loved her, and her sister and brother-in-law who gave way to her in her life, Bai Yingluo felt that she was more beautiful than her husband. Princess Six is ​​very lucky.

At this moment, the prince said, "I just want to talk to you without any burden", but Bai Yingluo's heart twitched slightly.

"Since that's the case, Yingluo thanked His Highness for his love, so let's talk with His Highness."

Not knowing where the courage came from, Bai Yingluo finished speaking in a charming voice, and sat down on the side farther away from the prince.

Suddenly raised his head to look at Bai Yingluo, the prince clapped his hands and laughed, "So I didn't misunderstand the person, you are not as boring as others, and I can't complain that Siran likes you. It's so wonderful..."

The laughter startled the birds in the bamboo grove behind the gazebo. The birds flapped their wings and flew away from the bamboo grove. The prince stood up and gave a wink to the rockery. I didn’t see it, and the prince turned his eyes back and explained: “Moying is my personal bodyguard, and I follow him everywhere on weekdays, so if someone approaches in a while, he will tell me in advance, you don’t have to worry that someone will see you there here."

It sounded like the two of them were cheating, Bai Yingluo lowered her head in embarrassment.

"Besides Si Ran, do you have any other friends?"

The prince sat back to his original position, leaning on the guardrail and asked Bai Yingluo.

Bai Yingluo shook her head.

The prince was stunned, and said with a wry smile: "I thought only the children of the royal family would be so pitiful, but unexpectedly, they are all similar."

"It's not entirely true..."

Disagreeing and vetoing the prince's words, Bai Yingluo smiled and said, "Yingluo is a daughter, and she has always been in poor health, so she was raised in a deep boudoir since she was a child, and never went to other people's houses with her aunt or grandmother as guests. The older sisters all had good handkerchiefs, not to mention the older brothers."

What Bai Yingluo meant was that she was just an anomaly, and it was caused by her body, not the environment, and she was different from the Sixth Princess and others.

The prince thought for a while and nodded.

After a while, there was nothing to talk about, Bai Yingluo looked carefully at the prince's expression and said, "Princess Jiu is not feeling well, won't your highness go and have a look?"

Unexpectedly, the prince shook his head and said helplessly: "Xiao Jiu is only seven years old, but she is more difficult than all the other princesses in the palace combined, and she is the most eccentric. I am afraid that the weather is hot today. Deliberately pretending to be suffering from heat stroke, trying to escape and go to the study to do homework. Just watch, pester Si Ran to play for a while, within an hour, Si Ran will definitely come back."

Although there was a look of helplessness on her face, Bai Yingluo could hear the doting in her tone clearly.

"The Ninth Princess was born under the empress's knees. She is still young, so it is only natural that she is fond of playing."

Bai Yingluo said with a smile.

The prince smiled, looked at Bai Yingluo sincerely and said, "I'm afraid you understand Si Ran's temperament these days. Outsiders look at her, she is a bit willful and savage, but in fact, she is just a simple child. You just know how to get along with people, since you are getting along now, you must treat them with sincerity, you can only be friends for half a year."

Bai Yingluo naturally understood the prince's desire to protect his sister, but after hearing what he said, Bai Yingluo shook her head and said with a serious face: "If we are friends, they will be for a lifetime. No matter how far we are in the future, the sixth princess They are all Yingluo's friends, and they will not end this friendship just because she married Da'an far away. As for Yingluo's heart, it is naturally sincere, and His Royal Highness can rest assured."

Bai Yingluo's resounding words touched the prince's heart, and he sighed in a low voice: "We have only known each other for a month or two, and we can have this kind of sincerity. It's a pity that our friendship of more than ten years has not been tested at all. I can't stand it."

What the prince said was inexplicable, but Bai Yingluo could tell that the second half of the sentence had nothing to do with her.

Thinking back and forth, Bai Yingluo probably guessed that there was some reason for the melancholy in his eyebrows when he met the prince this time.

Unable to get in the mouth, Bai Yingluo stopped being rash and just waited quietly, waiting for the prince to speak. After a while, seeing the prince was in a daze and didn't know what he was thinking, Bai Yingluo asked softly: "His Royal Highness has something on his mind. ?”

"Is the sadness on my face so clear? You asked me just now."

Can't help laughing, the prince asked.

Bai Yingluo nodded honestly.

The prince took a deep breath and said: "I have been with a friend for decades, but a few days ago, we had an unhappiness because of a trivial matter. Now he avoids seeing me, so I feel very uncomfortable. Said To be honest, I would rather he come out and we have a fight than suffer like this."

He said it easily, but there were two red clouds of suspicion on the prince's face, as if he felt that it was too embarrassing for a man to complain about such a thing in front of his little daughter's house.
