princess

Chapter 25

There was a reason for Xiao Yuanmin to be like this. Emperor Xuanhe would like a daughter who cared about everything in the family, but he would not like a daughter who was soft-hearted about everything.

When they arrived at Donghai Pool, Xiao Qingrong was already waiting there. Because of her poor health, she looked younger than her actual age. She was wearing a goose yellow dress, which looked very cute from a distance.

"Father." Xiao Qingrong hurried over to salute Emperor Xuanhe when he saw him.

"Get up." Emperor Xuanhe was in a good mood today, and he was a little more gentle with his daughter, "Is your body better?"

"It's much better." Xiao Qingrong said with a smile, "Thank you, Father, for your concern."

Emperor Xuanhe stopped talking, and the fourth prince laughed, "Why is the second sister ignoring us?"

"Second brother, fourth brother, eldest sister, and the prince's younger brother." Xiao Qingrong said.

"We are fine, but I haven't seen my second sister for a long time, and I think about it very much." There was no quarrel between the fourth prince and Xiao Qingrong at all, and the fourth prince was more like a good brother.

There was some disgust in Xiao Qingrong's eyes, but she said sweetly, "I miss fourth brother too."

"Why don't we sit down and talk slowly while eating cakes?" Xiao Yuanmin stepped forward with a smile and took Xiao Qingrong's arm, and said.

Emperor Xuanhe nodded and walked towards the pavilion.

Xiao Qingrong pulled out her arm, glared at the fourth prince and Xiao Yuanmin, and quickly followed Emperor Xuanhe, chirping about what she had learned during these days.

The Fourth Prince pouted, Xiao Yuanmin poked him lightly, "Don't keep teasing Second Sister."

"I like her." Xiao Chengde pretended to be innocent.

Xiao Chengxuan shook his head, "Let's go."

Xiao Yuzuo covered his mouth and snickered, then said to Murongxi, "Murong, the milk tea is delicious, you can try it later."

"Yes." Murong Xi replied with a smile.

After they sat down one by one, Emperor Xuanhe saw Murong Xi standing there, and said with a smile, "Murong Xi sit down too, today you don't need to be restricted by etiquette."

After Murong Xi made a bow, he sat down at the last seat.

The maid brought all the refreshments, Xiao Yuanmin quietly held the red date tea and listened to Xiao Qingrong talking with Emperor Xuanhe, with a smile on her face.

The fourth prince would sometimes say a few words, but those two words just happened to change Xiao Qingrong's face, Xiao Yuzuo pulled Xiao Chengxuan and muttered to him what delicious food is there outside the palace, and asked Xiao Chengxuan to promise to bring a copy back next time he went back.

Xiao Yuanmin reached out to touch Xuanhe Emperor's tea, put the somewhat cold tea on the plate dragged by the court lady, and then replaced it with new ones, and when Mother Tang saw it, she changed the teas of the others.

Emperor Xuanhe happened to be a little thirsty, so he took a few sips of the almond tea. The temperature of the almond tea was just right, and he reached out and patted the back of Xiao Yuanmin's hand lightly, the meaning of which was self-evident.

Xiao Yuanmin saw that Murong Xi had been sitting upright, and the cakes hadn't even moved, so he called Ban Xia, and gave some instructions in a low voice. Ban Xia, the grand maid of Fengyang Pavilion, walked behind Murong Xi, and picked up a few pieces with silver chopsticks. Isn't it very sweet? Put it on the plate in front of Murong Xi, "The eldest princess told Mr. Murong not to be restrained."

Murong Xi raised his head to look at Xiao Yuanmin, Xiao Yuanmin nodded with a smile, then looked away, "Thank you, Princess Eldest."

"Yes."

Xiao Chengxuan naturally saw it, and said something to Xiao Yuzuo in a low voice, Xiao Yuzuo was stunned for a moment, blushed, and quickly looked at Murongxi, and said, "Murong, I forgot about you."

"It's Weichen who is not tall enough." Murong Xi said with a slight smile.

Xiao Yuzuo looked Murongxi carefully, "You are not strong enough, you are already very tall."

Xiao Chengxuan laughed out loud, but Murong Xi couldn't laugh or cry, it was just a funny remark, and he didn't want the prince to be so serious.

"What's the matter?" It just so happened that after Xiao Qingrong finished speaking, he was waiting for Emperor Xuanhe to praise him. Who knew that Emperor Xuanhe was attracted by Xiao Chengxuan's laughter, and when he heard Emperor Xuanhe's question, Xiao Qingrong gave Murong Xi a hard look .

Murong Xi lowered his head and touched his nose slightly, only felt that ever since he entered the palace and became the accompanying student, he always suffered some unreasonable disasters.

It's just that he didn't know that after staring at Xiao Qingrong, he realized that Murong Xi was extremely handsome, with a refined temperament, and because he practiced martial arts since childhood, he was not only taller than his peers, but also taller than his peers, and couldn't help but blush.

You must know that in this palace, apart from Emperor Xuanhe and a few brothers, all Xiao Qingrong can see is the little eunuch. Emperor Xuanhe is her father, and she doesn't like those brothers. After all, she is robbing her father from herself. Beloved, not to mention the little eunuch, they are all slaves, now seeing Murong Xi... bit his lip lightly, and lowered his head.

"Father, let Murong and the second and fourth brothers practice martial arts together." Xiao Yuzuo gestured, "He is not strong enough."

"Hahaha." Emperor Xuanhe also laughed, looked at Xiao Yuzuo's small body, and then at Murongxi.

Although he didn't say it clearly, but the meaning was very clear, all of a sudden except Xiao Qingrong laughed.

Xiao Yuzuo puffed up his cheeks, like a little frog, "I will grow taller."

"Yes." Xiao Yuanmin coaxed his younger brother, "Eat more and you will grow taller."

"I will really grow taller." Xiao Yuzuo widened his eyes and looked at his sister, "Really, really."

"Sister believes you." Xiao Yuanmin patted Xiao Yuzuo's head and said.

Only then was Xiao Yuzuo satisfied, and then went to look at Emperor Xuanhe, his big round eyes seemed to be saying, quickly say trust me.

"Xi'er will definitely grow taller." Emperor Xuanhe laughed a few more times, put his left hand under his lips, and coughed a few times before saying.

Xiao Yuzuo looked at the two elder brothers again, and the two nodded quickly, "Yes, yes."

Xiao Yuzuo looked at Xiao Qingrong, but Xiao Qingrong was thinking about his own thoughts and had no idea at all. With Xiao Yuzuo's eyes, Emperor Xuanhe frowned slightly.

"Second sister?" Xiao Yuzuo called out in doubt.

Only then did Xiao Qingrong look at Xiao Yuzuo.

"Second sister, Xi'er will grow taller, right?" Xiao Yuzuo asked again.

Xiao Qingrong nodded, "Yes."

Only then did Xiao Yuzuo look at Murongxi proudly, "I will be taller than you."

Murong is not the kind of person who is blindly obedient. Hearing this, he said with a smile, "Then His Royal Highness has to work hard."

"Father, I also want to practice martial arts." Xiao Yuzuo looked serious, "I want to be taller than Murong."

"Alright." Emperor Xuanhe thought for a while, "In a few days, you will have class in the morning and go to the martial arts field in the afternoon."

"Thank you, Father." Xiao Yuzuo looked at Murongxi triumphantly, "Well, I will definitely be taller than you."

Murong Xi didn't know whether he should remind Xiao Yuzuo, he was a companion, Xiao Yuzuo went to the martial arts field, and he was going too.

"Father, I want to learn too." Xiao Qingrong said in a low voice.

Emperor Xuanhe took a look at Xiao Qingrong, but he didn't reject it outright. Although he didn't like this daughter, it was his own blood after all. Practicing martial arts should make her feel better.

It's just that Emperor Xuanhe's silence misunderstood Xiao Qingrong, and she only heard her say, "My sister can practice, and I am also the daughter of the emperor, why not."

There was deep resentment in this tone.

The fourth prince smiled a little, and suddenly felt that he was against Xiao Qingrong in the past, which was really wrong, obviously not on the same level.

Holding the tea cup, Murong Xi carefully studied the tea in it, um, the almonds in the palace are the best.

Xiao Yuzuo puffed his face, "Second sister, we are all father's children, and father cares about us."

Xiao Yuanmin knocked Xiao Yuzuo on the head, and said with a smile, "I'm afraid the second sister is getting close to me, and she wants to spend more time with me."

Xiao Qingrong knew that she was wrong as soon as she said it, but when she heard Xiao Yuzuo and Xiao Yuanmin singing and talking about herself, she stared at her fiercely.

"Qingrong's body is weak, let's take care of it more, let's not talk about martial arts training, and copy more books like "Nvjie"." Emperor Xuanhe's voice was a little cold.

Xiao Yuanmin took a piece of pastry and put it in Emperor Xuanhe's small dish, "Father, today's pastry is very sweet, you should try it too."

It's okay if there is no comparison, once there is a comparison, Emperor Xuanhe will be even more dissatisfied with Xiao Qingrong. Seeing that Xiao Yuanmin is an older sister, she cares about her younger sister in everything, but what about her younger sister?But full of jealousy, really ignorant.

Xiao Qingrong's nanny kept her head down all the time, and her heart was full of resentment. It would be good for this little ancestor to talk about something in the Penglai Palace. After all, it was the land of Concubine Lin Gui, but saying it in front of Emperor Xuanhe, isn't this courting death?

"Send the second princess back, she is weak, so don't go out in the future." Emperor Xuanhe glanced at the palace servants in Penglai Palace, "You didn't take good care of the second princess, each of you will be punished with three months' salary."

"Yes."

Xiao Qingrong still wanted to talk, but was pulled by the arm of the nurse who stepped forward, "Second Princess, it's time for you to take your medicine, and this servant will serve you back."
