Empress Dowager Empress Dowager

Chapter 29 Your Majesty, Please
"This is..." Baili Zonglu was slightly taken aback when he saw Huo Huaiyu jumping out suddenly.

Huo Huaiyu held Huo Mingzhu's arm, he didn't know what kind of illness he was suffering from, the usual noise disappeared completely, he just twisted Huo Mingzhu's hand, and shyly hid behind her: "I..."

Huo Mingzhu has been watching Huo Huaiyu's expression, obviously to attract Baili Zonglu's attention, but also to pretend to be a good daughter in the boudoir, not daring to show her face casually.In her previous life, Huo Mingzhu was a good older sister, and she stood out for her in everything. As soon as Huo Huaiyu hid behind her, she was willing to settle all troubles for her, and this life is no exception...

"My lord, this is my little sister Huaiyu. She is young and ignorant. She disturbed my lord just now. Please bear with me." Huo Mingzhu took the initiative to hold Huo Huaiyu's hand before giving Huo Zhengde a chance to speak. She dragged herself from behind to face Baili Zonglu head-on.

Since a pair of dogs and men will meet sooner or later, and they will be entangled together to give birth to evil seeds, she, Huo Mingzhu, will help them and treat them as a meritorious deed.

"My lord, you are polite." Huo Huaiyu saw that there was no way to hide, so he bowed to Baili Zonglu, his big watery eyes blinked, and the guard He Fang and others behind Baili Zonglu were all shocked. Laughed.

Baili Zonglu fanned his fan and praised in a leisurely manner: "It turns out that the ladies of General Huo's family are all like flowers and jade, the eldest lady is cold and calm, and the second lady is delicate and lovely. General Huo is very lucky. On the contrary, Second Miss is more approachable."

After saying the praise and derogation, Baili Zonglu looked at Huo Mingzhu, as if trying to annoy her, saying that she was cold and calm, but calling her ignorant of flattery in disguise.

Huo Huaiyu didn't understand the deep meaning, thinking that Baili Zonglu praised her especially, so he shyly hid behind Huo Mingzhu.

"Thank you for your praise, my lord, I will teach my little girl well in the future." Huo Zhengde clasped his fists in a serious salute, taking Baili Zonglu's jokes as imperial edicts.

Huo Mingzhu looked at their farce with cold eyes, and was noncommittal to Baili Zonglu's evaluation. He was just saying in disguise that she didn't know how to flatter her. He had shown her favor many times, but she didn't move at all and ignored her.

When Baili Zonglu thought that Huo Mingzhu should at least say something, Huo Mingzhu also bowed to Huo Zhengde: "There are still some guests who have not thanked, Mingzhu left first, the prince is not to blame."

She wanted to leave, and Huo Huaiyu couldn't stay any longer, so she grabbed Huo Mingzhu's hand and said anxiously, "Sister..."

"Huaiyu, today is my sister Jiji. There are many guests, and my parents are too busy, so you can treat the Ninth Prince well for my sister, which is considered to be the courtesy of our general's mansion." How could Huo Mingzhu not understand Huo Huaiyu's thoughts, she Pushing Huo Huaiyu back to Baili Zonglu's side, he left with a smile.

"Sister, I..." Huo Huaiyu seemed anxious, at a loss in front of Baili Zonglu.However, Huo Mingzhu's words dispelled all Huo Huaiyu's worries, entertaining the Ninth Prince for Huo's family was not because she intended to get in touch with the Ninth Prince, so it was not considered a violation of her duty as a boudoir daughter.

"My lord... the guests here are all relatives of my family, so maybe my lord doesn't know him. If you're bored, why don't Huaiyu take you to the garden?" Huo Huaiyu shyly pinched the hem of his clothes and said to Baili Zonglu.

But Baili Zonglu didn't hear what she said, the folding fan in his hand stopped at some point, and he was so angry that he chased the blue figure not far away... Huo Mingzhu, Huo Mingzhu, your heart What on earth did you do, that you are so indifferent to this lord, not to mention that this lord saved your life, but even posted it to invite an imperial physician for you and send you a birthday gift? You have condescended to such an extent, but you can Throw me lightly to entertain the guests next to me!

What kind of distinguished guests are they, worthy of leaving the majestic prince aside? !

He Fang and Xie Ming, the guards behind Baili Zonglu, looked at each other. They all sensed the prince's anger, and Miss Huo really didn't know how to flatter her!The prince has never attended the wedding ceremony of any young lady in Shangjing, how can Miss Huo throw all of the prince's heart on the wall?
"My lord? My lord?" Huo Huaiyu didn't dare to look up when he asked for Baili Zonglu's opinion, so he didn't see who he was looking at. Seeing that there was no answer after talking for a while, he called again a few times.

Baili Zonglu came back to his senses, looked down at Huo Huaiyu and said, "What did Second Miss just say?"

He still needs to complete his demeanor, and he doesn't want to get angry in front of Huo Mingzhu.

"Huaiyu said, if you think the main hall is noisy and boring, why don't you let Huaiyu take you around the garden?" Huo Huaiyu repeated the words.

It was only then that Baili Zonglu looked at Huo Huaiyu's face. Although the Huo sisters were indeed good-looking, they were born differently. In terms of temperament, Huo Huaiyu is much easier to get close to than Huo Mingzhu.

For some reason, Baili Zonglu agreed: "Okay, then let the second lady lead the way."

"Yes!" Huo Huaiyu bit his lip, very happy, and was about to lead Baili Zonglu to the backyard, but Baili Zonglu pointed to Huo Mingzhu and said, "Second miss, after all, this king is here to congratulate the grand dame." It's Missy's birthday, if you just leave like this, it's not good after all, why don't Second Miss go say hello to Eldest Miss, and then let's go again?"

"My lord is right." Huo Huaiyu was naturally obedient, but she refused to talk to Huo Mingzhu by herself, so she beckoned a girl to come over and whispered a few words in her ear.

The girl hurriedly walked towards Huo Mingzhu.

Baili Zonglu and Huo Huaiyu waited in place to see Huo Mingzhu's reaction.

Huo Mingzhu was chatting happily with several uncles of Huo's family, and Yu Tong, Miss Yu's family, were talking and laughing, and outsiders saw that they were closer than real sisters.

"Eldest Miss, Second Miss said to lead the prince to the garden, worried that the prince would be bored and neglect him." The girl trotted to Huo Mingzhu, repeating verbatim.

The conversation between Huo Mingzhu and Yu Tong stopped, Huo Mingzhu instinctively sneered in her heart, this couple couldn't wait to be like this, in the previous life they were secretive at least, but in this life they hooked up during her wedding ceremony?It can be seen that once the fate is changed, even these personnel matters are also changed.

Huo Mingzhu had nothing else to say besides saying yes. She raised her eyelids and glanced at Baili Zonglu who was not far away, and nodded politely to him as a response. Yu Tong spoke.

Her lukewarm reaction really pissed off Baili Zonglu. He had thought that there is always some jealousy between girls, and sisters are no exception. He and her sister got closer, so why should Huo Mingzhu? Annoyed.But the eyes that Huo Mingzhu glanced at him just now were extremely calm, especially the last corner of his eyes, which made Baili Zonglu feel that she was laughing at his unbearable loneliness.

"My lord, my sister already knows, you can follow me." Huo Huaiyu didn't have Baili Zonglu's thoughts, and he didn't know his annoyance at all.

Baili Zonglu was so angry that he wanted to crush the folding fan in his hand, but he couldn't get angry again. After hearing Huo Huaiyu's urging, he was already extremely impatient, but he just agreed and didn't want to go back on his word.If he repented, wouldn't Huo Mingzhu succeed again?
For some reason, he just didn't want to make it easy for Huo Mingzhu.Just thinking about what she might have in mind made him uncomfortable.

"Let's go. This king can enjoy the beautiful scenery of the General's Mansion today. I have Miss Lao." With his swollen face, he strode forward towards the back garden of the General's Mansion.
