There is much joy in the old play

"I'm sorry, last night It's all my fault, you can ask me to do anything."

Tang Hao buried his head deeply, and said these words in a hoarse voice.

Ji Mancheng heard this, his eyes were full of doubts, why should he apologize?I am also feeling refreshed, um, it is not ordinary.

The mental activity is very honest, but the superficial work still needs to be done.Ji Mancheng thought about it for a while, what would people normally do in such a situation, and then began to show off his acting skills.

He lowered his head, his thin bangs covered his eyes, his expression was gloomy, and he said flatly and tiredly, "Forget it."

The voice was very hoarse, and the faint tone made people feel distressed.

Ji Mancheng moved to the edge of the bed, wanting to stand up and put on his clothes, but his legs were so weak that it was difficult to even support him to stand firmly, so he almost staggered and fell to the ground, fortunately Tang Hao kept staring at him, seeing something was wrong He quickly swam over and grabbed his waist.

But in this way, Tang Hao directly touched Ji Mancheng's delicate skin without hindrance, his heart trembled suddenly, and he panicked again.When he took care of him to wash before, Ji Mancheng was not sober, and he didn't think so much at that time, but now he couldn't help but feel guilty when he saw Ji Mancheng's dark eyes last year.

Ji Mancheng didn't know what he was thinking, but only knew that his waist was sore, so he supported the bedpost, then pushed him away, and calmly refused, "Don't bother you, thank you."

Tang Hao felt a dull pain in his heart, knowing that after such a thing, he would definitely dislike himself, but when it really happened in front of his eyes, it was still difficult to accept.He was afraid of making Ji Mancheng unhappy, so he took a step back, and if there was anything Ji Mancheng needed, he would help him in time.

Now, Ji Mancheng didn't say anything more, his attitude was indifferent, and he put on his pants with difficulty. When he lifted his legs, he still couldn't bear the weakness of his feet and fell backwards. Tang Hao hurriedly reached out to help him, but before that, Ji Mancheng supported himself Standing still, he didn't need his help.

Until the buttons of the court coat, Ji Mancheng still couldn't button them.

Tang Hao stood aside without knowing what to say, seeing this, he slightly flattered and said, "Let me help you."

Ji Mancheng's lapel was open, revealing his slender neck, and there were a few conspicuous hickey marks on it, which made his cold demeanor a little more charming, but he didn't know it, and calmly replied: "You are a prince, do these things?" No, just let the attendant come in and help me."

"no!"

Tang Hao suddenly became emotional, and the corners of his eyes turned red, as if he had been hurt.

Ji Mancheng was stunned.

Just at this time, footsteps of attendants came from outside the hall, they stopped outside the door, and called His Highness respectfully, saying that the Grand Concubine specially sent someone to invite the Concubine-to-be to enjoy the flowers together.

The attendant didn't know that the atmosphere in the room was weird, so he just stood outside obediently, waiting for orders.

Tang Hao heard this, and said impatiently: "Understood, step back."

Ji Mancheng opened his mouth to say something, but Tang Hao quickly grabbed him into his arms and covered his mouth. He didn't let go until the footsteps of the servants outside could no longer be heard.

Tang Hao was a little nervous, standing in front of him, trying to explain something, but he opened and closed his mouth for a long time, and finally he didn't say anything, he just said dryly, "I'll help you."

He raised his hand to fasten the complicated and gorgeous buttons one by one for him.His movements were a little stiff, as if he was prepared that Ji Mancheng might refuse at any time, but until the last button, Ji Mancheng was very quiet and didn't make a sound.Tang Hao breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that at least it wasn't too bad. After straightening out the corners of his clothes, he observed Ji Mancheng's expression, only to find that he was looking at him with a smile, and he couldn't explain clearly.

Tang Hao became anxious again, unable to guess what it meant.But in the next second, Ji Mancheng suppressed his expression, became calm again, and said politely: "Thank you."

After getting ready, it was time for Tang Hao to go to His Majesty's side, but before he went, he sent Ji Mancheng to the palace of the eldest prince.In fact, he didn't want Ji Mancheng to have contact with that woman, but according to etiquette, there were no special circumstances, and he could not refuse the elder's invitation at will.Tang Hao told Ji Mancheng to ask the servant to come to him if there was anything he needed, and he didn't have to be patient or wronged himself.

Ji Mancheng showed a very shallow smile, which was so fleeting that he couldn't even notice it without careful observation.In a trance, Tang Hao thought it was his own illusion, and shook his hand hard, knowing that he would be late if he didn't leave, so he turned and left reluctantly.

The senior maid who came to lead the way saw this scene and smiled kindly and said, "The relationship between the prospective princess and His Highness is really good."

Ji Mancheng smiled and nodded when he saw Tang Hao walking away.

Since it is an invitation to enjoy the flowers, of course people take them to the garden. In the exquisite small pavilion with sharp corners, a court lady in full dress is leaning on the railing, sitting lazily, her long sleeves are flowing down like water, there is no Very dignified and elegant posture, but still has a sense of nobility, and there are two beautiful maids standing beside her, waiting to serve.

When she saw Ji Mancheng approaching, she became interested in her lazy appearance, raised her hand and waved at him, saying, "You're here, I'm almost bored to death."

Hearing this, Ji Mancheng was even more confused, he didn't have a good relationship with her, did he?We only met once, are you so familiar?

Ji Mancheng sat down on the stone bench opposite her, keeping a proper etiquette distance.The princess rested her chin on one hand, looked at him with emerald green eyes, and gestured to the pastry on the table, "It tastes good, try it?"

There are many types of desserts on the table, such as walnut cakes, red bean cakes, almond cakes, etc., each of which is small and exquisite, just the size of the entrance, so it is convenient to eat.

Ji Mancheng hesitated for only a second, then randomly picked up a piece and put it in his mouth, it was very delicious.

The princess just looked at it like this, as if observing some interested small animal, and then remembered, "By the way, you don't know who I am, do you? My name is Li Shui. I think you are quite pleasing to the eye. Boring mermaids are much more interesting, why don't we have more contacts in the future, I can help you if there is anything."

Ji Mancheng smiled, neither agreed nor refused, just said: "I will come later when I have time."

Li Shui curled his lips, his dissatisfaction was very straightforward: "Did Tang Hao tell you not to play with me? He is just a crazy boy who changes around, don't worry about him, don't look at his serious appearance, he is actually domineering Black heart... wait."

As she was talking, she suddenly stopped, looked Ji Mancheng up and down, then squinted her eyes, and smiled meaningfully, "Have you been wiped clean?"

Ji Mancheng didn't expect her to utter such direct words, so he was caught off guard and choked, looking a little uncomfortable, and coughed twice as if surprised.

Li Shui said frankly, "There's nothing to be ashamed of, it's all tacit."

Ji Mancheng is helpless, if it is tacit understanding, then you should not announce it.However, from her tone, it seemed that she knew Tang Hao quite well. Not only that, she had no awe of the entire mermaid royal family, and didn't take it seriously.What is her identity?

After a simple chat, Ji Mancheng found that this strange woman had a chic and straightforward personality, and she actually felt pretty good when getting along with her. I don't know why Tang Hao asked him to ignore her, but since he said so, Ji Mancheng still pays more attention.

Here, the two of them chatted in a harmonious atmosphere, but a few beautiful figures slowly appeared in the flowers beside the pavilion, tall and beautiful, all dressed in court attire, with delicate makeup and dazzling fishtails.

Ji Mancheng didn't know their identities, but Li Shui was very clear about them, because she was often asked for trouble.But she didn't take it seriously, it was just like squeaking like a few soft little animals, with no lethality at all, and it was boring.However, these people didn't realize it, and they came so diligently, trying to find a sense of presence.

But this time they didn't come for Lishui.

Because a humble human being dared to be so bold, Xiao Xiang Wangfei's noble status made them unable to stand it anymore.These people are all noble mermaids, including royal princesses. Mermaids are very particular about bloodlines. Only nobles can marry. Discriminated alien species like Ji Mancheng are not qualified to grab the position of princess.

They swam over gracefully, and when they approached the pavilion, they covered their lips in feigned surprise and said, "Ah, why is the princess here? I'm sorry, I didn't see it until I saluted you."

Slightly bent over, nodded meaningfully and settled the matter, then stepped forward pretendingly, his eyes fell on Ji Mancheng, and asked strangely: "Is this...is a human being?"

Talking about humans, there is obvious contempt in the tone.

"How can a mere human come to bother the princess and eat cakes unceremoniously. Oh, yes, I'm afraid human beings have never eaten such a good thing."

Still eating, Ji Mancheng, who couldn't speak for a while, blinked his eyes, a little confused, can eating some pastries be used to despise?The food on the table tastes good, but he is [-] years old, and he has eaten delicious food everywhere, even if Sansan is here, he will not be so happy that he will cry after eating one bite, okay?

Ji Mancheng secretly rolled his eyes, swallowed the last bit in his mouth, and prepared to speak.

However, there was someone who moved faster than him, sat lazily away from the water, looked over with his eyes, and said in a soft but imposing voice, "I specially prepared this cake for the second princess, do you have any opinions?"

His cool eyes swept across the noble girls, they couldn't help but tremble from the cold, and quickly recalled Li Shui's ants-like eyes every time he came here to make trouble.Obviously, Li Shui, as the great princess, is only one or two levels higher than them, but the attitude she showed was like a queen, which made them fearful and silent.

But the purpose of this trip was not achieved, so they were not willing to be scared away, and said stubbornly: "Of course we don't have any objections to the princess, but this is just a human being, what qualifications do we have to be equal to you? We feel for you I'm sorry, princess."

The worried eyes seemed to be thinking of her because of how good his feelings really are.Li Shui tutted slightly, and couldn't help applauding their acting skills, "How do I remember that you used to call me unknown and humble? Now, in order to deal with a weak human being, you have a relationship with me? Put me in the Go there, don't you feel wronged? Aren't you afraid that I will pollute the waters around you?"

A group of noble ladies on the opposite side were choked by her blunt bluntness, and after a long while, they could justify themselves: "Princess, what are you talking about, you have misunderstood us..."

Then he pretended that his sincere and pure heart had been hurt, and wept with his head bowed, as if he was really wronged.

Once a beautiful woman cries, the pear blossoms will rain, which is always pitiful, so it's hard to say anything more.

Ji Mancheng ate snacks in silence, watching the show with the mentality of an outsider, feeling their amazing fighting power.At this time, making Ji Mancheng open his mouth to fight back always seemed like he was bullying.

Li Shui didn't have such scruples, she knew how to deal with these noble girls who thought highly of themselves.She stood up slowly, moving lightly with lotus steps, but instantly appeared in front of the youngest girl among them, with a slight hook of her slender index finger, she raised her chin, forcing her to look at herself.

It is very high above the water, and in front of the petite and exquisite girls, it looks very oppressive. Looking down from a high position, they unconsciously hold their breath and dare not move around.

"This face is really good, it suits my taste, especially the eyes, which are very charming." Li Shui didn't say anything harsh, but praised her. From a very close distance, the noble lady can see Li Shui's outstanding appearance. There is no trace of blemish in her appearance, her brows and eyes are full of vigor, and when she stares at people, she still has a very affectionate feeling.

The noble girl couldn't help being stunned, she had never been approached to talk like this before, her cheeks were flushed, and she wanted to back away uncomfortably.But how could Li Shui do what she wanted? She stretched out her hand to grab him, and easily hugged him into her arms. She lowered her head slightly, and her lips almost touched her face, and said intimately: "If I say You want to come and serve me, do you think your father will refuse? I can't guarantee what will happen to you if you are in my hands. "

Very light tone, cryptic words, a pair of peach blossom eyes are evil, when he squints and speaks, he really looks like a fairy, if he is accidentally tempted, he will be dragged into the abyss of eternal doom.

The noble girl was a little obsessed with the beauty in front of her eyes, she was relieved when she was pulled down her sleeves by the person beside her, and hurriedly struggled to retreat.

Almost caught on.

There was fear on the lady's face.And Li Shui looked leisurely, as if nothing happened just now, her ten fingers were slender, and she couldn't see how much strength she could have, but just now they were like iron arms, which made her unable to break free at all, and it was the other party who was able to break away later. No reason for force.

Li Shui rubbed his fingertips casually, and said with a smile: "Ji Mancheng is my friend, don't call that human or that human, I don't like it, do you understand?"

Basically, it can be regarded as a very arrogant announcement - this person is covered by me.

The noble girl is not reconciled and refuses to answer.But when Li Shui glanced over, they made a rising questioning sound, and they nodded immediately, fearing that if they were a second late, Li Shui would go crazy.

Ji Mancheng was really a melon-eating audience throughout the whole process, silently watching a small house fight, a little admired Li Shui's courage, as far as the aura of her eyes is concerned, she is also a good negotiator in the business world.

And the person who just pulled the noble girl who was in her early years was the one whom Ji Mancheng was familiar with, the queen's nephew Lin Yan, and Tang Hao's rotten peach blossom.

In fact, this group of noble ladies will come here to provoke, and some of them are Lin Yan's inciting and instructive remarks.Since his sister had given up, he was desperate to make a move.He stayed by the queen's side, so he could naturally understand some things that others didn't know, just like although His Majesty agreed to the marriage proposal proposed by Tang Hao, it was only because he didn't want to destroy the relationship between father and son, but in private, he still hoped to change his son in other ways mind.Therefore, Lin Yan's move was acquiesced to a certain extent.

Originally, everything should have gone smoothly, but it was only a few days, why did Tang Hao care so much about a human being like him?Even Li Shui, who has never played cards according to common sense, favored him.Seeing this, Lin Yan felt annoyed and unwilling. He glanced at the person who was eating the pastry in a relaxed manner, and said in a deep voice, "Princess, you are kind enough to treat him as a friend and protect him, but are you sure he treats you with the same heart?" Is it? It seems to me that he sat there the whole time and didn't help you."

This is said, as if caring to remind them not to be used by others, but the purpose is very clear, just to provoke the relationship between them.As far as he knew, the princess and this human being were only meeting each other for the second time, and it was only a matter of momentary interest. Where did the feeling come from, it was easy to resolve.But unlike those noble girls, he has fought against Li Shui a lot, so he doesn't know how special Li Shui is.

After hearing this, Li Shui looked back at the person sitting at the table and said with a smile, "He said why didn't you speak for me."

Ji Mancheng hesitated for a second, held a piece of walnut cake in his hand, and said, "What should I say, don't you bully the few with more?"

That calm tone didn't take it seriously at all.Lin Yan was furious.

And Lishui wanted to add more fire, shrugged and said: "You heard it, I don't need his help, don't talk about it, you come up and fight me together, I have nothing to be afraid of."

This can be said to be very exciting.But what she said was still the truth, and they couldn't do it if they didn't admit it.

In the end, the group of them could only turn around and leave angrily, without the arrogance they had when they came.

Li Shui walked over slowly and sat down, tidied his clothes slowly, took the wet wipes from the maid, wiped his hands, and ate the pastry.

She looked at Ji Mancheng and said, "I really like you more and more."

As a princess, Li Shui said she liked men other than the eldest prince, but the maids around her didn't respond much, which proved that her usual style was rather unusual.

And the reasons she gave for liking are indeed different. She said: "I always hate others to interfere when I do things. What you think you are helping is just a hindrance to me. I am very strong and don't need it at all."

When she said this, her expression was flat, without any conceited meaning, it seemed that she was just stating the facts.

Ji Mancheng nodded, confirming his guess about her character just now.Although she looks soft and fragile, she is an extremely tough and independent person. She has her own opinions and doesn't like being dictated by others.

Apart from this, Ji Mancheng was even more curious - "What the hell are you?"

Not a mermaid, nor a human being, living in this ocean, treating the royal family as nothing, possessing strong and fearless strength.

Li Shui bent his lips and smiled, and when he was about to say something, his eyes suddenly fell to the distance behind Ji Mancheng, "Your man is here, let's talk about it next time."

Tang Hao came with the eldest prince, and he walked extremely fast, and he arrived behind Ji Mancheng in a short while, looking at Li Shui with an unkind look in his protector's posture.

Li Shui didn't care, "Why are you staring at me? Could it be that I can still eat him?"

Tang Hao didn't answer, he felt that Li Shui had bad intentions by default.

It happened to be lunch time at this time, Li Shui liked Ji Mancheng, and enthusiastically invited him to have dinner together.Tang Hao was not invited, but his concubine is here, of course he won't go back to eat alone by himself.

The maids filed in with dishes, and they sat at the dining table.Tang Hao asked Ji Mancheng with concern what happened today.Ji Mancheng was a little helpless, feeling that he was a little worried, but he still briefly talked about what happened today.

Li Shui next to him interjected, adding oil and vinegar, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone: "He is understatement, a large group of people came to trouble him, if I were not here, he would not know how he would be bullied, and you, a busy prince , just be kept in the dark all the time, and say nothing to protect him."

Tang Hao was really pissed off, but he couldn't refute, and almost suffered internal injuries.

On the other hand, Tang Zhen, with a cold face and a silent voice, after hearing that Li Shui had conflicts with others, his first reaction was not to persuade her to understand the general situation, but to know how to behave smoothly in the world. Instead, he held her hand and calmed down. He asked, "Are you hurt?"

The maid serving next to her complained silently in her heart, probably asking if the person who opposed the princess was still alive, how could the princess let herself suffer?

Sometimes, the maid who waits close to her is really envious of the princess. Even though she is already very powerful, can dominate the world and is invincible, but in the eyes of the prince, she is always a little girl who needs to be worried and loved. .

At this time, the princess still shook her head indifferently, and smiled confidently: "What are you worrying about? How could I be hurt?"

Then she turned her mind back to Ji Mancheng. When she was interested in something, she was very enthusiastic.She put her favorite dish into Ji Mancheng's bowl and shared it with him, "Try this, it tastes good."

The eldest prince watched silently, did not speak, only pursed his lips, and looked down at his bowl with nothing but white rice.

Li Shui didn't notice his small movements, and just took care of Ji Mancheng blindly, successfully making the two princes present unhappy.

The eldest prince indulged her and didn't say anything, but Tang Hao was very polite, glared at Li Shui, and said childishly: "Mancheng can be clamped by yourself, no matter how bad it is, I will help, don't bother you."

Li Shui laughed even worse: "How can it be troublesome to bring food to my favorite Xiaomancheng?"

Seeing that she was about to pick up vegetables again, Tang Hao immediately reached out to block Ji Mancheng's bowl.And Li Shui just glanced at him lightly, then turned his chopsticks, and put the dishes into Tang Zhen's bowl, as if that was the way it was originally, but Tang Hao was thinking too much.

Tang Zhen, who was suddenly used to cover up, didn't say anything. He looked down at the extra food in his bowl, picked it up naturally, stuffed it into his mouth and ate it.

When the meal was almost done, Li Shui suddenly thought of something, called the maid, and said, "Bring over the new silk from the past two days, and I will give it to Man Cheng, as a gift for us to officially become friends."

The maid hesitated, and whispered: "Princess, the eldest prince specially found it for you, it is very precious..."

Li Shui turned to look at Tang Zhen, "You gave it to me, so I can do whatever I want, right?"

Tang Zhen nodded, the expression on his face unchanged.

"Then bring it here, as a gift, of course it must be an expensive one."

Seeing that the concubine was so straightforward, it was useless to remind her, so the maid had to obey her orders and go back to get it.

Ji Mancheng vaguely heard their conversation, frowned and said, "How can I answer it, and I don't need it, it's only suitable for you to use it."

Li Shui didn't care, "It's okay, I have a lot, I think the color of satin suits you very well. You've been here for a while, and you definitely don't have enough clothes. I know Tang Hao is a fickle guy, and he's not as careful as his brother."

Tang Hao was upset again, feeling upset.

And Tang Zhen, who was praised, did not show joy, still with a cold face and a paralyzed face, he calmly picked up the teacup at hand, lowered his head and took a sip, then paused, put down the teacup slightly stiffly, and accidentally burned it tongue out.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

Domineering young lady Li Shui: I've covered this person.

Tang Haochaoqi: She is obviously mine, brother, hurry up and take care of your woman!

Brother: ... I can't control it.
