After the new consort

"What if Shengyi just likes it?" Tianxiang stared at Feng Suzhen and asked tightly.

Feng Suzhen shook her head and said: "If that's the case, but no one recommends it, it must be that the officials don't like it. If you insist on playing, won't you become a target of public criticism?"

"I don't care if those people like it or not, I'm just asking what you think!" Tianxiang seemed to be tired of going around in circles, and simply asked straightforwardly: "That Fengzuo who has power over the world, do you really want to take it seriously?" Do not want?"

Feng Suzhen saw that her words had been clarified, she raised her head and looked in the direction of the palace, her eyes gradually revealed the depth and coldness of the year, she paused for a long while, and slowly replied word by word: "The palace walls are dark, I don't want to climb high."

Although Feng Suzhen's attitude towards the emperor has already guessed her thoughts, but Tianxiang's heart is full of worries. The more she sees the grandiose flattery from the emperor, the more uneasy she becomes. Sending him to her for a test, I couldn't explain the messy state of mind, until now when I heard her refuse every word, the anxiety all over my body finally faded away.

Tianxiang followed Feng Suzhen's eyes to look at the palace, and said in the same tone as her eyes: "Don't worry, as long as I'm here, I will never let the emperor force you half a point."

Feng Suzhen had already turned her head to look at Tianxiang, and her cold face turned into worry, and said, "That's exactly what I'm worried about, Tianxiang, the two times I've watched the emperor's demeanor, it's completely the majesty of a king, and it's no longer The prince who never left the wooden bird back then, even though you and the Holy Majesty are close relatives, you still have to worry about the emperor's dignity, don't contradict him face-to-face over such trivial matters—"

"Why is this a trivial matter?" Tianxiang interrupted, seeing Feng Suzhen's earnest expression, she suddenly smiled warmly in her heart and said: "Okay, don't worry about it, the emperor has just ascended the throne, and he cares a lot about things. How dare you hurt your reputation for me."

Seeing the familiar helplessness on Feng Suzhen's face, Tianxiang was a little happy in her heart, and changed the subject and said, "Don't talk about these spoilers, I heard that there is a temple fair outside the city today, you didn't take a good look last time, it's just in time Good morning, go and change your clothes, I'll—"

"Tianxiang——" Feng Suzhen interrupted Tianxiang's enthusiasm: "I still have some trivial matters to deal with today, I'm afraid I won't be able to go out, why don't you call Brother Shaomin together, he must be in a panic at leisure."

Tianxiang looked at Feng Suzhen in surprise, and asked straightforwardly, "What's the matter?"

But Feng Suzhen said vaguely: "It's nothing, it's just some trivial matters at home, it will take some time."

Tianxiang's lips moved, but she finally compromised, hesitated for a moment and said: "Then forget it today, anyway, I went to the temple fair last time, and I heard that Jing'an Temple will welcome two big Buddhas to consecrate in two days. Zen Master Kong has to preside over it himself, and—”

"Tianxiang——" Seeing Tianxiang's obvious compromise, Feng Suzhen sighed in her heart, she was as proud as Tianxiang, and now she was rejected and accommodated again and again for her own sake, but the accommodated self had to cruelly interrupt her again The invitation said: "I have a bit of cold these few days, I'm afraid it's not suitable..."

"You're sick? Why haven't you heard of it? Has the imperial physician visited you?" Tianxiang's attention was immediately shifted to "Fengchi", and she didn't realize that it was such an obvious excuse.

Feng Suzhen saw that Tianxiang was still observing her face seriously, her heart was sore, her eyes were almost red, and she reluctantly said with a calm expression: "It's just a common cold, why bother to work for the imperial doctor, I can prescribe medicine myself, but it's not suitable for these days Just go out." Seeing the clear look in Tianxiang's eyes gradually, Feng Suzhen tilted her head hastily, avoiding the sight that she couldn't bear to speak, and said with difficulty: "And this typhoid is the easiest to overwhelm others. You are a golden branch and a jade leaf. I've been overwhelmed by illness, it's really..."

"That's true." Tianxiang finally had to admit that starting from the "trivial things" just now, all these reasons were Feng Suzhen's excuses to avoid herself, just like Feng Shaomin's "talking about state affairs thoroughly". Excuses, but still did not dare to expose, could only leave a little bit of dignity, "Then you rest more, I'll go back first", turned and left.

Only then did Feng Suzhen dare to look up at Tianxiang's lonely and stubborn back, her heart seemed to be cut by a sharp knife, she was a little dazed at first, but now she felt dense pain.

For the next few days, Tianxiang did not appear in Feng Suzhen's courtyard again, even though she found all kinds of excuses to wander around the neighborhood every day, as if staying around this courtyard and getting closer to her would produce With some connection, I can feel a little more at ease in my heart, but I don't have the courage to step into that door again.

But a few days later, Feng Suzhen took the initiative to find Tianxiang's room, and as soon as she entered, she saw Tianxiang holding a book and frowning, she couldn't help laughing and said: "I don't believe what others say, why are you really reading?"

Tianxiang heard this gentle voice finally sounded in front of her again, her tone was still familiar from before, her hand that turned the pages of the book paused, what filled her heart instantly was not joy, but grievance mixed with sourness, she calmed down for a moment, Then he raised his head and smiled as usual: "Why are you allowed to read, but I can't read it? Let's see what's so good about this book, it makes you all so fascinated."

"You want to see the best, so did you find the result?" Feng Suzhen glanced at the title of the book on Tianxiang's desk, and it turned out to be the kind of poetry she disliked the most.

Tian Xiang also followed Feng Suzhen's gaze to look at the desk, and then glanced at Feng Suzhen quickly, a trace of shyness flashed across her face, but she still said with disgust: "Sure enough, it's still so boring."

Feng Suzhen waved her hand at Tianxiang and joked: "This statement is wrong. The ancients said that there is a golden house in the book, and there is Yan Ruyu in the book. Why is it so wonderful? Isn't it enough to attract the world's students?"

Tianxiang said disdainfully: "It turns out that these are the two things. I don't care about the golden house, Yan Ruyu." Having said that, she turned her head to look at Feng Suzhen and raised her eyebrows and said, "You don't have to find it in the book." Seeing that Feng Suzhen is just conniving Smiling, Tianxiang didn't answer the conversation, and asked instead: "What about you, why did you think of looking for me today?"

Feng Suzhen then seemed to think of something serious, and handed a red sandalwood box in her hand to Tianxiang and said, "I wanted to give you a New Year's gift, but there were so many things to do during the New Year's Eve, and I didn't have time. If I don't give it to you now, I'm afraid New Years It's all over."

Tian Xiang took it and took a look, the hollowed-out pattern on the outside of the wooden box was very delicately carved, obviously it was a treasure, she glanced at Feng Suzhen suspiciously, and gently opened the hidden button, only to find two squares of warm jade lined up inside, moist and clear , Nuanbi and flawless, Tianxiang has seen countless treasures in the palace since she was a child, and at a glance, she knew that this object was not extraordinary, and saw the dragon and phoenix patterns carved on the two jade tablets, her heart moved, and she hesitated: "This is... ..."

Feng Suzhen also looked into Tianxiang's hands with a smile and explained: "This is a pair of Qingtian jades. Although they are not as precious as the jades in the palace, they are also my family's ancestral items, and they are quite old."

"An ancestral thing?" Tianxiang tightened her hands when she heard the words, as if the thing in her hand suddenly became heavier, but she still maintained a brisk tone when she spoke: "You gave me the ancestral thing, what else do you want to pass on from now on? Don't you want the family heirloom of your Feng family to be broken in my hands?"

Feng Suzhen seemed to be infected by Tianxiang's teasing smile, she also smiled and shook her head, pointing her chin into Tianxiang's hand and said: "This ancestral warm jade should have been a wedding ceremony for the eldest son, but it's a pity that it's difficult for the heirs of Daddy's generation. I am left alone, so naturally there is no difference between the elder and younger children, originally my father wanted to use me as a dowry when I got married, but now I..." Speaking of this, Feng Suzhen seemed to be at a loss for what to say, her eyes flickering After a pause for a while, he smiled wryly again and said, "If we talk about marriage, I'm afraid the only thing in this life is the big marriage with Princess Tianxiang three years ago, not to mention the princess saved the lives of our father and daughter, this thing is most suitable for you."

Tianxiang's face turned red when she heard the word "marriage". Although she didn't understand why Feng Suzhen, who was always rejecting people for thousands of miles, suddenly said this, her heart was burning hotter and hotter like a charcoal cage beside her. He lowered his head and tried to suppress the corners of his upturned mouth, but surprise overflowed from the corners of his brows and eyes again, and he rubbed the wooden box in his hand and said happily: "So it's a wedding gift, so I'll accept it, even though it's too late Most of the time, I don’t care about it.”

Feng Suzhen looked at Tianxiang's gradually flushed side face, heard the unconcealable joy in the answer, almost swallowed back the words she was going to say, and forced herself to think about Tianxiang's life, but finally said shyly: " Heh, that big wedding is absurd, but if the princess meets someone she likes in the future, it can be used as a token, even if it is not needed for a while, it doesn't matter, just take it as a parting memorial for you."

"You want to go?!" Tianxiang was startled suddenly, as if the heat that had just risen was suddenly poured into desolation by a basin of ice water, she hurriedly raised her head to stare at Feng Suzhen regardless of her face, and asked in a loud voice: "Is it because of the emperor?" Brother? Didn’t I say that I would never let Brother Huang force you, don’t you believe me?”

Seeing Tianxiang's face turn pale, Feng Suzhen felt a pang of distress in her heart, and replied in a calm tone: "Why, you always do what you say, and I have never worried about this matter."

"Then why are you leaving?" Tianxiang asked quickly and urgently.
