The seventh princess insists on letting me eat soft rice

Subconsciously, Lian Liejin felt that the matter was not simple, so she smiled coquettishly, covered Gao Jingxi tightly with the quilt, closed her eyes and fell asleep, and said vaguely:

"How could it be me? I've always seen it since I was a child. It's impossible to have a red dot between my eyebrows. Your Highness, I must have misremembered the person. I'm so sleepy, I'm going to sleep."

After speaking, Lian Liejin pretended to snore a little.

Wrapped in her arms by gentle arms, Gao Jingxi was in a daze for a moment, breathing in the faint scent of herbs from Lian Liejin's body, seeing this man's abnormal behavior, her eyes became even colder, and she even concentrated on recalling it.

It was the rainy season 13 years ago. In the carriage, Gao Jingxi, who was only five years old, was wrapped in a fox white fur that was worth thousands of dollars. The pure white and flawless fur made her little face more pink and jade-like, As tender and lovely as the best ice and snow cold Yuanzi.

"Mother, where are we going?"

Back then, the queen's eyes didn't have so many fine lines, so she forced a smile, "I went to see a good friend of my mother's. She lives in the mansion of Duke Yan."

"As the queen mother, why don't you invite your good friends to the palace?" Although the seventh princess is young, she already knows the order of high and low.

"Because...she is sick, too sick to walk. The queen mother wants to see her for the last time."

"Then you should come to the palace. There is the best doctor in the world in the palace. He will definitely be able to cure her."

Hearing this, the queen touched the young girl's head with a doting smile on her face.

"Today, we didn't bring Lan'er out together. The queen mother must make it up to her when she returns to the palace."

Seeing her daughter protecting her younger sister like a grown-up, the queen felt a little comforted, but on the surface she still blamed her and said: "Lan'er is not in good health, you, as an elder sister, don't take care of her much, and even encourage her to come out to play like crazy. , really..."

The carriage stopped slowly, and some palace servants whispered that they had arrived at Duke Yan's mansion.

At that time, Gao Jingxi's stature was not as tall as the carriage, and she was carried down by the queen the whole time.

White flags had already been hung in front of the Duke of Yan's mansion. Coupled with the unique dark weather of the rainy season, it looked tired and lifeless.

As soon as the two of them arrived, people from Duke Yan's mansion greeted them, only the female relatives, but Duke Yan was not there.

It is said that he has been fighting outside and has not returned for half a year.This time, I don't know if I can come back in time.

After entering the mansion, the flowers and plants in the duke's mansion were blooming just right, the empress asked the palace servants to follow Gao Jingxi who was playing around, and she went alone to meet the man for the last time.

For some reason, there are many children in Duke Yan's mansion, and most of them are people Gao Jingxi knows well.She pulled up her collar, half-covered her face, and walked west all the way, because the more she went west, she saw more and more colorful and delicate flowers, stained with fresh rain and dew.

At the end of a clump of blooming flowers after the rain, stood a boy in black with two braids of horns soaring to the sky, who seemed to be much shorter than her.Seeing the boy in black sneaking close to the flowers, he didn't know what he was doing.

When the little Gao Jingxi approached, the boy in black turned around in surprise, holding a small celadon bowl in his hand, which contained something dark.

The well-cultivated Seventh Princess did not show any smiles because of the funny red dot in the center of the boy's forehead, perhaps because the boy in black is small, but he has a kind of cool and good-looking that does not eat the fireworks of the world.

At the moment when the drizzle was falling, Seventh Princess said.

"Sesame paste, do you want to drink it? One mouthful, one liang, two sips, three liang." The black-clothed boy's frown, which was originally tightly frowned, relaxed at that moment, and handed the bowl to Gao Jingxi.

"What is sesame paste?"

"It's just..." The black-clothed boy was speechless for a moment, his dark eyes rolled a few times, "You don't know sesame?"

The Seventh Princess shook her head very honestly, after all her teacher said that knowing what you don't know is wisdom.

"Oh, that's it," the black-clothed boy raised his eyebrows inexplicably, coughed twice, and said hastily:

"Sesame is the one grain on the berry. Thousands of people need to pick it off with needles around the clock, dry it in the sun for seven to 49 days, and then grind it into powder. Often a thousand berries can make less than one A catty of sesame seeds. It’s not easy to get.”

"If it's hard to come by, why did you pour it into the flowers?"

"...Flowers also want to drink, right?" The black-clothed boy showed pity on his face, stretched out his baby-fat little claws, and touched the flower branches taller than himself.

Seeing this, Gao Jingxi nodded as if realizing something, "Will my kitten want to drink too?"

"Uh, kittens like to eat fish." The little boy in black thought for a while, and it is better not to give this concoction to cats. "You can just give them fish."

"Okay, how can Huaer give you money?" Although Gao Jingxi grew up in the deep palace, she was not ignorant of human affairs.Little children already know that a tael of silver is about the size of a Lantern Festival.

"The friendship between me and Hua'er is priceless. If you give me money and drink sesame paste, we will be friends from now on." The boy in black grinned, revealing two glutinous rice Huya, Baici was cute, but suddenly his smile disappeared.

"Want to be friends with you?" Seventh Princess was a little confused, she rarely took the initiative to be friends with people, but the little boy in front of her didn't seem very close...

"Do you want to drink it or not?" The boy in black looked at the hesitant look of the beautiful child in front of him, and pretended to drink the black concoction in the small celadon bowl in one go, "If you don't drink it, I will drink it."

"Wait...wait a minute, I don't have any money on me, and I can't eat casually outside." Seeing the impatient look of the boy in black, Gao Jing thought about it, and was so worried that he almost circled around in circles.Finally, she pouted and said weakly:

"Then give me a sip, um, just a sip. I'll give you the golden magpie on my body, okay?"

"That's right," the black-clothed boy immediately narrowed his eyes with a smile, and with her flushed cheeks, he looked even more radiant and lovely, "Seeing how sincere you are, let me feed you."

With the small silver spoon in the small celadon bowl, the boy in black scooped up a large spoonful of concoction and fed it to Gao Jingxi with his own hands.

The taste of that sip of concoction was thick and bitter with an indescribably sour and numbing taste, so bitter that Seventh Princess's delicate hands could hardly hold the golden magpie necklace just taken off her neck.

With a "wow", Gao Jingxi couldn't hold back, and burst into tears, followed by sobs that she couldn't hold back.Before the boy in black could react, a child in a moon-white gown rushed over from the corridor outside the courtyard.

The child was about half a head taller than the two of them, and she looked like a pampered lady in the palace—it was Lian Pingyou when she was a child. Seeing Gao Jingxi rubbing her eyes and crying, she stepped forward involuntarily. Pushed down the boy in black.

"You sick man, don't you just lie in the room and come out to shame yourself? Just like your useless mother."

The little boy in black's white face was covered with wet soil, and his face was red and black, which was even more ridiculous than before.

The seventh princess was still on the sidelines and only cared about wiping away her tears. She was a princess, she couldn't cry casually, and she was seen by the little boy she just met.

She felt even more ashamed, and the tears she had finally held back in this moment of bitterness and embarrassment were about to burst again.

After Seventh Princess finally stopped her tears and wiped her weeping face, she was surprised to find that the little boy in black pressed Lian Pingyou into the mud, asking questions over and over again, and dared to say one more sentence.

Lian Pingyou saw the seventh princess looking towards them, and suddenly, out of nowhere, he suffocated his energy, and with a loud roar, a starlight came out from his hand, and he pulled the little boy in black who was holding her down. It flew out and hit a thick tree.

The little boy in black looked pale, got up staggeringly, and rushed over again, ignoring Lian Pingyou's continuous starlight hitting him.

"If you dare to kiss my mother again, you won't be able to see the stars tonight."

The two figures, one black and one white, wrestled together in an instant, and Gao Jingxi wanted to go up to persuade the fight, but fell into the lotus pond beside him somehow.

The dark pool water was icy cold, and in the boundless darkness, Gao Jingxi passed out completely.

When she woke up, she had just recovered from a serious illness for two months.Gradually, the boy in black was forgotten.

Now, when I hear Lian Liejin talk about what happened back then, the more I think about it, the more I feel that the boy in black is Lian Liejin.

"Lian Liejin, don't pretend to be garlic for me, you are the one who lied to me to drink medicine!" Gao Jingxi seemed to have been wronged by the world, her beautiful eyes were rippling with sparkles, and she grabbed Lian Lie tightly. Jin's arm.

Who would have expected that the culprit of this old grievance is Lian Liejin, a dignified "beast in clothes".

At that time, Princess Seven, who was only five years old, did not know that although Lian Liejin was "beautiful", she was not beautiful in her heart.

Pretending to be unable to sleep, Lian Liejin opened his eyes helplessly, turned Gao Jingxi's face to himself, and bent his lips, "Then, Your Highness, how do you want me to compensate you?"

Being too close to this person, Gao Jingxi forgot all about what she wanted to accuse. She muttered for a long time before slowly saying:

"Speaking of which, Lian Pingyou is much more mature than you looked at that time. If she hadn't risked her life to save Bengong, I might have drowned in the lotus pond in your Lian family's backyard that time."

When Gao Jingxi said that it was Lian Pingyou who saved her, the corners of Lian Liejin's mouth slightly curled up, stroking the porcelain-white slender fingers of the Seventh Princess with one hand, deliberately looking at the light and shadow staying on the window lattice, and said quietly:

"Your Highness, how do you know that Lian Pingyou rescued you?"

"This is natural. I woke up when I was in a coma and saw her drenched. Otherwise, I would not have had any contact with her. Later, the queen mother thought about betrotting me to her, but because she agreed Dear, just let it go and never mention it again."

"Really? My dear sister, she really knows how to ask for credit." The more she heard Gao Jingxi say, Lian Liejin became more and more angry, and couldn't help but said sharply:

"You are so grateful to Lian Pingyou, why didn't you think of repaying your life-saving grace by the way?"

"How to report? The husband decides, and the concubine will obey the husband." Seeing Lian Liejin's unhappy appearance, Gao Jingxi's smile deepened, "Lie Jin, is it because Lian Pingyou saved me, are you unhappy?"

Seeing that Lian Liejin didn't answer, Gao Jingxi went on to say:

"Bengong fell into the water at the beginning, it wasn't because she saw you bullying me and got into a fight with you. Besides, the two of you pushed and shoved, and in the end, it was me who fell into the pond. After returning to the palace, I also suffered a serious illness and drank herbal medicine for more than two months."

"From now on, I am afraid of taking medicine firstly, and afraid of Fushui secondly."

Hearing this, Lian Liejin stretched out his hand to pluck the hair on his ears and temples, closed his eyes, and muttered in a half-suffocated and half-guiltful voice: "No wonder you were so frightened last time in Suiyuhe."

Looking back, Gao Jingxi pulled Lian Liejin's sleeves and forced the man to open his eyes, "My husband means that there was someone else who saved my concubine back then? Thinking about it, you were born Sick and injured again, it must not be you."

Lian Liejin showed a satisfied smile when she heard the first half of the sentence, but before she finished laughing, Gao Jingxi added another sentence.

"Sleep." She waved a light wind with her right hand, extinguishing the candles in the room.

In the darkness, Gao Jing's teasing chuckle was very clear, only the Seventh Princess could be heard softly saying:

"I can't stand being teased so much? Well, it's my concubine who misunderstood me. Back then, it should have been that nasty little boy in black who ignored his concubine who was seriously ill to save me, right?"

"You really believe it's me?" Lian Liejin turned his back and asked softly.

Back then, after she saved the girl in white who took a mouthful of her own medicine, she fainted due to exhaustion, and was framed for disrespecting her mother's body.

Thinking of this, Lian Liejin clenched her hands involuntarily. At that time, her little mother wanted to eat herself alive, but she still remembered it vividly.

Fortunately, her master went to the mansion to take her away in person, otherwise, if her father was away fighting, she might not live for three days.

"Of course I believe what my husband said."

"But I didn't say anything."

"It's not blind, I still can't see you, Lie Jin?" Gao Jingxi turned around and lay down on the bed, smiling slightly, "Benefactor, little girl can't repay you. I only hope that my benefactor will be rich in this life and in the next life." Guangjin, the house is full of gold and jade."

Lian Liejin was stunned in the cabin lit by the moonlight until Gao Jingxi teased again and asked:

"Well, don't you like such a blessing?"

Lian Liejin answered with some difficulty:

"It's not that I don't like..."

"I saw that my husband is very good at managing evils and dwellings, and also has a lot of research on the method of making money. I thought my husband would like it very much?"
