Empress Dowager Empress Dowager

Chapter 197 It's Wrong
When the graceful and luxurious eldest princess appeared in front of everyone, it indicated that the garden party had already begun. Huo Mingzhu looked left and right, but she didn't see Baili Zonglu. She was thinking in her heart, could Baili Zonglu not Come?
Immediately, someone beside him exclaimed: "It's the Ninth Prince, the Ninth Prince is here."

If Baili Zonglu did not appear at this garden party, it would be possible. Huo Mingzhu really thought that he would not come, but she didn't expect Baili Zonglu to come. She turned her head and met Baili Zonglu's eyes.

There seemed to be a smile in those eyes, and they also looked at Huo Mingzhu. Huo Mingzhu, together with many young ladies, bowed to Baili Zonglu: "Greetings to the Ninth Prince, the Ninth Prince is a thousand years old."

"Get up."

"Thank you, Lord."

Immediately, I heard the eldest princess say: "Ninth Emperor Brother, I thought you would not come to this garden party, and I thought it was a pity, because I couldn't see the scene of the stars holding the moon."

"Sister Huang, are you making fun of me like this?" Baili Zonglu smiled at the eldest princess. This eldest princess is extremely beautiful, standing with the handsome Baili Zonglu is very eye-catching.

Do all the royal people look so good-looking?When he accidentally glanced at Baili Jingqi next to him, Huo Mingzhu was certain in his heart that the people in the royal family were all extremely good-looking.

However, it is a pity that Baili Jingqi has such a good-looking appearance, and Baili Zonglu, the out-and-out disaster, is this skin, which pushed her into hell in the last life, and in this life, she will not Seduced by this skin.

"Everyone, thank you for coming to this garden party. This garden party is not a formal occasion, but I just want everyone to come to the princess mansion to accompany me. Therefore, you don't need to be cautious, chat and enjoy You can play chess with tea!"

After finishing speaking, the garden rang out in unison: "His Royal Highness is a thousand years old."

After the eldest princess finished speaking, she took the maid and walked to the pavilion where Baili Jingqi was, and Baili Zonglu was immediately surrounded by a group of Yingying Yanyans, who immediately chattered non-stop. .

Of course Huo Mingzhu didn't want to squeeze with people, she was just thinking about how to express her heart, it's not good for so many people to listen to it, and it doesn't suit her style.

Thinking about it, Huo Huaiyu's voice sounded from one side: "These women really don't have any face, they are so blunt, as if they have never seen a man in their life."

That sour look seemed to wish she could run up too, Huo Mingzhu said: "Sister, but you can't say these words, if others listen to it, it's not good, if people gossip, pass it on." I don’t know how long I’ll be grounded in the ears of the old lady and my mother. If it wasn’t for this garden party, my sister is still learning how to behave. Why don’t you use this opportunity to show yourself and let everyone praise your sister? I can take it and intercede with the old lady, so that you don't have to learn the rules anymore."

When Huo Huaiyu heard this, he felt that this was the reason. Although Huo Mingzhu thought of a way that made Huo Huaiyu feel a little unhappy, he didn't refuse, and went straight to Baili Zonglu.

Huo Mingzhu saw it and followed her.

"Huaiyu has met the prince." Huo Huaiyu saluted, as if she was a young lady, and Huo Mingzhu had already walked to Baili Zonglu's side, and she also saluted Baili Zonglu.

But Baili Zonglu passed Huo Huaiyu, looked at Huo Mingzhu and said with a smile: "Ajin, this king also said, when will you come over?"

Baili Zonglu has been paying attention to Huo Mingzhu all the time, seeing that her eyes only glanced at him a few times, he was very unhappy, so he didn't take the initiative to go to Huo Mingzhu's side, now Huo Mingzhu took the initiative to go Coming here brought Baili Zonglu's good mood back a lot.

Huo Huaiyu said sourly: "My lord can only see my sister, but not Huaiyu. Huaiyu can also greet you."

Only then did Baili Zonglu turn his attention to Huo Huaiyu: "Haha, look at me, seeing Ah Jin coming, I ignored Huaiyu, blame me."

Only then did Huo Huaiyu calm down, and Huo Mingzhu clearly felt that all the eyes around her were looking at her. She felt a little uncomfortable, but she could only endure it, with a smile on her face, and said to Baili Zonglu: "Mingzhu has not yet Greetings to the princess, and Mingzhu sees that the prince is not free, so Mingzhu goes to greet the princess first."

When Baili Zonglu heard this, he looked deeply into Huo Mingzhu's eyes, as if he wanted to see through Huo Mingzhu, and after a while, he said: "A Jin, the king is very happy, you can go."

Huo Mingzhu bowed his head and left.

What she said just now was intentional. She purposely said it with a bit of sourness to pave the way for her confession later. Otherwise, if she had been acting distant and then suddenly went to confess, wouldn't it be full of loopholes.

When Baili Zonglu said he was happy with her, he could hear the sourness in her words, and thought that she had already captured her heart, so she was happy, Huo Mingzhu sneered in her heart.

Huo Mingzhu walked to the side of the gazebo, stood there and saluted the princess: "See Your Royal Highness, Your Highness is a thousand years old."

The eldest princess who was talking with Baili Jingqi immediately turned her head, saw that it was Huo Mingzhu, and said with a smile in her eyes: "It's the daughter of the Huo family, get up and talk."

"Thank you princess."

"Why don't you go play in the garden?" the eldest princess asked suspiciously.

Although this garden party was initiated by her, she retreated to the gazebo at the beginning, not to create an opportunity for the young masters and ladies to get to know each other. If she saw the right way, she could draw a red line from it.

Huo Mingzhu, the daughter of the general's mansion, did not go to know the young master, but came here, which really made the eldest princess feel puzzled.

"Mingzhu came back from the border town, and she didn't have the chance to meet the princess. This time, if she has the opportunity, she should greet her first." Huo Mingzhu replied.

When the eldest princess heard this, her eyes flashed like stars, and she pursed her lips into a smile, which can be described as graceful and luxurious. Seeing Huo Mingzhu's heart bursting with admiration, she heard the eldest princess's voice like a spring: "I have heard that the Huo family Miss grew up in the border town, but she knows the general situation, she is a rare beauty, and looking at it now, she is indeed so."

Huo Mingzhu hurriedly said: "But I don't remember half of Her Royal Highness."

"Hehe, you can talk." The eldest princess obviously benefited from Huo Mingzhu's ability to talk.

"Aunt Huang, do you also think Ah Jin is very good?" Baili Jingqi said, causing Huo Mingzhu a sudden headache. This silly prince always gave her a headache. Baili Zonglu confessed.The eldest princess would not feel that she was frivolous, but she didn't count the Baili Jingqi in it.

Now, they have to deal with this Baili Jingqi again!Can this silly prince not call her by her nickname?

"Ah Jin? The prince knows Miss Huo? This Ah Jin is Miss Huo's nickname, right?" After finishing speaking, he looked at Huo Mingzhu with meaningful eyes.

Huo Mingzhu nodded and said: "It's Mingzhu's nickname. I met the prince by chance in the temple that day. The prince heard the Ninth Prince call Mingzhu like that, so he knew Mingzhu's nickname."

"Oh, so that's the case. I heard that Ah Jiu and you have a good relationship. Now, it seems that it is indeed the case." The eldest princess remembered the things that had been rumored in Shanghai recently, and Huo Mingzhu was one of the protagonists!
Huo Mingzhu took out the argument that Baili Zonglu had saved her, and the eldest princess was obviously not interested in that, so she waved her off.

Huo Mingzhu's goal was achieved, so she looked for an opportunity to confess to Baili Zonglu.

This opportunity is not so easy, it cannot be heard by others, and it must conform to her style of doing things. After thinking about it, the only way is to find someone to pass on the message.

Su Yu is not suitable, because for this matter, if the princess wants to know that Su Yu is not the most suitable one, then she can only find the maid of the Princess Mansion.Thinking of this, Huo Mingzhu looked around, looking for candidates.

Huo Mingzhu took a fancy to a little girl who was served by a maid in goose yellow, so she took a chance, stopped the little girl, and asked the little girl to let Baili Zonglu meet by the lotus pond at the back.

There is a rockery next to the lotus pond, behind the rockery is not easy for people to see, but standing here, if someone comes, the footsteps will be heard by Huo Mingzhu.And this rockery is a bit remote, and people usually don't come here at random. Huo Mingzhu also discovered this place when he was walking around just now.

Huo Mingzhu asked Sulu to go to the other side to watch the wind, so that if someone came, she would be notified in time.

Huo Mingzhu gave her handkerchief to the little girl. The handkerchief was embroidered with the word "A Jin" specially for this confession, and there was a pair of mandarin ducks on the handkerchief.

After waiting for a while, Huo Mingzhu heard footsteps, she couldn't turn her body around, but turned her back to the person coming.

She thought to herself, even if she was shy to do so, Baili Zonglu would not think her confession was too abrupt.

"If you feel confused about Mingzhu's actions, then please don't ask, wait until Mingzhu has finished speaking." After Huo Mingzhu finished speaking, she paused, and then said: "The handkerchief was embroidered by Mingzhu for a few days. The mandarin ducks and pearls on it have been embroidered a few times, but they still don’t look good..."

Speaking of this, Huo Mingzhu paused again, the breathing of the people behind him was still there, proving that he hadn't left, Huo Mingzhu continued: "I met you once, as if in a dream, when Mingzhu suddenly woke up, you It has quietly appeared in Mingzhu's heart."

Speaking of this, Huo Mingzhu could clearly feel that the people behind her were breathing faster, as if they were very excited, but because Huo Mingzhu said that she had finished speaking just now, she didn't make a sound.

Huo Mingzhu's words are already obvious at this point, but Huo Mingzhu continued to say: "Mingzhu knows that it is shameless for a girl to say such a thing, but Mingzhu thinks that if feelings arise and you don't grasp them, then it's a shame. It's ignorance. So...."

Huo Mingzhu turned around suddenly, wanting to say the words "love you" face to face, but unexpectedly, the person behind it was not Baili Zonglu, but Baili Jingqi.

It turned out to be that silly prince!

Huo Mingzhu opened her eyes wide and looked at Baili Jingqi, with a very bright smile on that face, those eyes seemed to be the brightest stars in the sky, Huo Mingzhu could feel a great joy from that silly prince.

But Huo Mingzhu was weighed down by this sense of joy.

How could it be Baili Jingqi? To what extent did she say it just now?There is no possibility of remedy!Huo Mingzhu was thinking in a panic, and then she heard Baili Jingqi say in an extremely excited tone: "Ajin, Gu is so happy, really, so happy, Gu wants to tell Aunt Huang, Aunt Huang will definitely be happy for Gu of."

"His Royal Highness..."

"Ajin, do you know? The maid handed the handkerchief to Gu, but Gu still didn't believe it! Ah Jin, you are waiting for Gu, Gu will tell Aunt Huang right away, Gu is really happy!"

After all, it didn't matter what Huo Mingzhu wanted to say, and even ignored Huo Mingzhu's hand raised to stop him, but ran away like the wind. His Royal Highness, a prince, ran away happily like a child.

Huo Mingzhu only felt that the sky was going to kill her...
