frivolous princess

Chapter 237 Ice Cube Face Arrives

Liang Muhua was the second young lady of the Liang Mansion before she was alive, and she was not outstanding in her mother's family. If it wasn't for marrying Shangguan Jie, a first-rank general of the country, the outside world would not know her at all.Now that she has passed away, and because of her relationship with Concubine Liang and Prime Minister Liang, even the emperor showed some concern for her funeral, and specially sent a letter of condolence, along with several masters in the palace to express their condolences. Liang Muhua's condolences.Even the second prince, Long Xiaotian, who didn't often visit the General's Mansion on weekdays, came today.

Long Xiaotian was wearing an ordinary dark-colored fine attire. Shangguan Jie greeted him in person in the back hall, and specially asked his servants to bring up fragrant tea.

Long Xiaotian held the teacup, took a sip slowly, and couldn't help admiring: "Unexpectedly, in the general's mansion, there is also the 'Buddha Conch Fragrance' that can only be found in Lingxu Temple." As he spoke, he squinted Tao Ran Taking a sip, "The tea is fragrant and mild, with a sweet and fresh aftertaste, like orchids on the tongue, with a long-lasting fragrance. Really good tea!"

He put the teacup back on the table, and said: "This tea must be brewed in the mountain spring at the back of Lingxu Temple to get the best taste. General Shangguan must have put a lot of thought into it."

Shangguan Jie glanced at Long Xiaotian with some hesitation. This second prince has always been serious and notoriously indifferent.Today, I chatted with him here, and there was no usual airs, as if they had always gotten along like this.Shangguan Jie clicked his tongue secretly, but still calmly smiled and said: "This is what my old lady got from the relationship in Lingxu Temple. It is hard to buy. She loves Zen tea all her life. She said that 'Zen tea is one taste' includes 'Zheng, Qing, Harmony, elegance' and other meanings can be described as the most calm in the world."

Long Xiaotian's eyes were not happy, and there was a slight smile on his lips, which meant something unclear, "The most rare thing in this world is calmness. Unless you are like those old Zen masters in the Zen monastery, throwing away the world of mortals and truly achieving no desires and no desires." Please." He pinched the teacup in a trance, not knowing what he was thinking, and suddenly smiled softly, "It's a pity, there are really many wonderful things in this world, and it's not like you can let go just by letting go."

Shangguan Jie glanced at him, poured another cup of tea for him, and said with a smile: "I heard that the second prince also likes Zen tea, so I specially asked my servant to make a pot of 'Buddha Conch Fragrance'. No Thinking of it, the Second Prince recognized at a glance that this is the 'Buddha Conch Fragrance' unique to Lingxu Temple. It seems that this rumor is true."

With a smile on Long Xiaotian's lips, "Buddha snail incense is famous for its 'shape like Buddha snail, fragrance like Zen'. When brewing, I watched the 'Buddha snail' slowly unfolding in the water, and I didn't feel it slowly. Calm down. Therefore, whenever I encounter difficult puzzles, I will go to Lingxu Temple and drink a pot. It is a pity that this tea is hard to buy, it depends on the chance. Otherwise, I must buy it Many, put them at home and taste them slowly.”

Shangguan Jie didn't expect that such a cold-blooded person would say such a thing, and he didn't know how he felt.With a calm expression, he said with a calm smile: "If the second prince really likes it, the old minister will order it to be prepared for His Highness later, and take it back when His Highness leaves."

Long Xiaotian smiled and said, "Then I will have to work with General Shangguan."

Shangguan Jie said with a smile: "Second prince is very polite. It's a great honor for the old minister to be able to talk with the second prince about the magic of Zen tea."

Long Xiaotian smiled casually, and said casually: "When you came in just now, why didn't you see Princess Huiling?"

"There are a lot of guests who came to express their condolences to my deceased wife today, and she is probably still busy." Shangguan Jie said, "If the second prince has something to do, can someone call her over?"

Long Xiaotian hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop him, "No need, I just asked casually. Before I came, I happened to greet the queen. The queen mother heard that I was coming to mourn the general's wife, so she let me stop by to see Hui Ling Princess. She said that since the Queen Mother's birthday, she has not seen Princess Huiling again, and she can't help but miss her a little. So, she wants me to see how Princess Huiling is doing now."

"Your Majesty has a heart, my daughter is in good health, everything is going well, everything is fine." Shangguan Jie said.

The two chatted a few more words casually, and then heard the word from outside: "Master, the third lady brought her eldest grandson down to pay a visit to you!"

The two stood up at the same time, and saw Shangguan Fuxue leading Long Yan in. Seeing that the second prince was also there, she was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "So the second prince is also here." Then she said to Shangguan Jie : "Daddy, His Royal Highness is here."

Shangguan Jie stepped forward to salute, Long Yan came up to support him, "General Shangguan, you don't need to be restrained!"

When the second prince saw Long Yan, although he still maintained a decent faint smile on his face, that smile didn't have any warmth, even his deep eyes didn't even have a single star of a smile.

Seeing him, Long Yan always had a smile on his face, and called out in a neither high nor low voice: "Second Emperor Uncle."

Long Xiaotian looked at him with deep meaning, as if he had thought of something, he said calmly: "Yan'er, you are here too."

Long Yan said: "Grandpa Huang said that General Shangguan has worked hard and made great achievements. The general's wife passed away, so I specially asked me to come here to express my condolences."

Long Xiaotian's eyes darkened, and a trace of unclear emotion flashed in his eyes.

Shangguan Fuxue accidentally captured this moment. This second prince, who is famous for his indifference, appeared frequently in the mansion after he became the princess. What was he planning in his heart?
Shangguan Jie bowed respectfully in the direction of the palace, "Your Majesty's grace is so great, and this old minister will always remember it!"

A sneer flashed in Long Xiaotian's eyes, and he turned to look at Shangguan Fuxue.The first two times I watched her at the banquet, but now watching her quietly, the feeling seems to be different again.

Although Shangguan Fuxue was wearing a white filial dress, her face turned to the sky.Because of being busy, her fair face was slightly sweaty, and her forehead hair was even a little messy.But the slight flush on the cheeks is like the scene of a hibiscus flower gradually turning red when it blooms, and the pink on the white sepals, from light to deep.Before you know it, it's already touching.

In the past, when Long Xiaotian saw a woman in such a slovenly state, he was filled with disgust and didn't even want to take a second look.He has always believed that there are only high-ranking women with breathtaking beauty.And this kind of beauty is not because of her own beauty, but because of the kind of power and desire, even if she is in a high position, she still has a calm and self-sufficient temperament, which is the real beauty.

However, now he is staring at her face in a daze. Some kind of grease has been applied on her lips, which has a faint honey color, which makes his heart hold him inexplicably.

"His Royal Highness Prince Jing?" Shangguan Fuxue couldn't help frowning when he saw him staring at her in a daze.King Jing is Long Xiaotian's title.

There was no wave in that voice, but his heart trembled inexplicably. He suddenly realized that it was extremely inappropriate for him to look at her like this.Can't help looking sharply at Shangguan Fuxue, "Princess Huiling, is there something wrong?"

Shangguan Fuxue turned a blind eye to his cold attitude, suddenly smiled and said, "I thought there was something on my face."

Long Xiaotian gave her a cold look, but did not speak.

Shangguan Jie said: "Xue'er, don't be too presumptuous in front of the Second Prince."

Shangguan Fuxue just smiled innocently, "Daddy, what did my daughter say right?!"

Shangguan Jie said angrily: "Have you forgotten? How can you call yourself 'I' in front of the Second Prince?"

"It doesn't matter." Long Xiaotian raised his hand, and said calmly: "Miss San is now the Princess of the princess, and also the adopted daughter of the Emperor Father. She is of the same generation as this King, and it's okay not to follow the customary etiquette."

"Although Xue'er is the adopted daughter of the emperor, she is only in the third grade in terms of title. She shouldn't be overstepping the rules in front of the third prince." Shangguan Jie said, then solemnly said to Shangguan Fuxue: " Xue'er, quickly admit your mistake to the Second Prince!"

Shangguan Fuxue was stunned for a moment, ever since Shangguan Jie began to identify with himself, he rarely had such serious moments.But looking at his expression, Shangguan Fuxue quickly realized that the reason why Shangguan Jie had such a reaction was really because the second prince in front of him was a difficult master.The decision to kill has never hesitated.I did say something wrong just now. In front of the royal family, even though I have been made a princess by the emperor, my rank is still below the second prince. I should follow the etiquette.If he made a mistake in this regard, he would probably come to the truth, saying that he would get carried away by being crowned princess by the emperor, and even forget his due duty.

Shangguan Fuxue thought about this clearly, so she hurriedly walked up to Long Xiaotian respectfully, and apologized: "The minister's words and deeds are inappropriate, and she almost ran into His Highness Prince Jing, please forgive me!"

A rare hint of interest floated on Long Xiaotian's lips, and he looked at her thoughtfully, "Princess Huiling, I remember that when I first met the princess, the princess was not such a well-behaved person. "

Shangguan Fuxue's heart trembled, remembering that it was the real "words and deeds without words" before, she quickly said in panic: "Your Highness, forgive me, I didn't know that you were His Highness King Jing at that time, so I was a little presumptuous. If Your Highness still cares, The courtier is willing to let you punish me here."

Long Yan frowned, looked at Long Xiaotian and said, "Second Emperor Uncle, don't you really intend to punish the crime of Princess Huiling?"

Long Xiantian didn't raise his eyes, and said coldly: "This king is here to mourn the general's wife today, not to punish someone's crimes. This king has long heard that Princess Huiling used to be a "speaking and arrogant person." 'People. If you have to be punished, how many times has she died?"

Shangguan Fuxue didn't expect him to say such words without any scruples. It sounded like a joke, but his expression didn't make people laugh at all.Shangguan Fuxue was feeling uncomfortable, but he suddenly looked over, with a cold smile still on his lips, but there was a trace of gloating and joking in his eyes.

This extremely contradictory expression made Shangguan Fuxue feel very uncomfortable. She twitched the corners of her mouth and said, "I used to be a bit..." She was so embarrassed that she couldn't think of a suitable word, so she could only laugh a few times in embarrassment. Then he continued: "There are some inappropriate places, but that's all because..."
