The story of the rich and the young being tricked into farming

After Ye Xiaozhou entered the side hall, he stayed in the room obediently, and from time to time, the servants of the royal family came with red wedding clothes and jeweled gold hairpins.

"Young master, this is the wedding dress that my lord personally chose for you," the housekeeper surnamed Wu said with a smile, "Look over it and see if you like it. If you are not satisfied, there are two sets in reserve."

Ye Xiaozhou glanced down at the wedding dress, and at a glance, he saw that the unfurled wedding dress was not embroidered with the common phoenix-wearing peonies, but two peacocks cuddling each other with gold threads, with their tails hanging down. 99 top-quality rubies, and a bunch of butterflies embroidered on the cuffs, as if they were about to burst out of his cuffs.

He remembered that on the way to Yunxi Village, he once told Jing Min that on the day of their wedding in the future, the wedding clothes he would wear should not be the same as ordinary people's, but should be made of the best materials, embroidered with peacocks, and To embroider butterflies.

At that time, Jing Min tenderly kissed the corners of his eyes and eyebrows, and said with a smile, okay, okay, you can embroider anything you want.

Now that the wedding dress has become a reality, Jing Min has torn face with him, and the groom has become the disabled and sick prince.

Seeing him staring at the wedding dress, the housekeeper said with a somewhat unpredictable expression, "Originally, we were going to order the wedding dress in which the dragon and the phoenix are auspicious, but the prince said it was too vulgar. It also has the auspicious meaning of a hundred years of harmony, so I decided on this set, so I took that set as a backup."

He paused, and then said: "My lord said, if you don't like it, young master, then you can replace it with the one where the dragon and the phoenix are auspicious."

"Don't bother," Ye Xiaozhou said, "That's all."

"Young master, why don't you try it out to see if it fits you well? Those embroiderers are still waiting in the guest room. If something doesn't fit, you can ask them to come over and change it for you."

Ye Xiaozhou shook his head.

The butler asked people to leave the wedding dress and phoenix crown behind, and then took the slaves back.

Chen Mengchu couldn't understand Ye Xiaozhou's sullen look, she looked at the wedding dress carefully, and then said: "I see that the prince treats you very well, and these are all real big rubies - come here Now, since you can't escape, just enjoy yourself, always frowning will make you ugly."

"How about this," Cheng Xiaofeng said suddenly, "Let's go out for a walk, at least to relax, this palace is not small, just now Butler Wu said that King Ning is in the palace today, and he won't be able to come back for a while. We can't hit him either."

Ye Xiaozhou thought that instead of sitting in this room and thinking wildly, it would be better to go out for a walk, it would not be so painful, so he nodded in agreement.

The scale of Prince Ning's Mansion is really not small, and the number of slaves is only a lot more than that of Ye Mansion, but when Ye Xiaozhou sees those rockery fish ponds, pavilions and pavilions, he always feels that this place is actually quite deserted.

The three of them walked for a long time, when the house slave in front suddenly pointed to a lonely courtyard in the center full of asparagus bamboos and said: "That is the courtyard where the prince lives, and our prince Ning likes to be quiet. When they go to court, they will all be in that courtyard."

Cheng Xiaofeng suddenly asked, "Can we go in and have a look?"

A person's residence can sometimes reflect the person's character, so he really wants to know what kind of person this prince is.

"That's impossible," the slave immediately vetoed, "The lord usually doesn't want servants to approach his yard privately. If anyone doesn't obey the rules, he will be served by the family law."

Chen Mengchu immediately said: "You can't be slaves, my young master is an imitation princess, and he will live in this courtyard tomorrow, why can't you look at it?"

The servant thought about it carefully, and then he said: "It's not bad for you to say that, but we are not allowed to go in without the order of the prince, why don't you go in with the young master and have a look, I will be there We are waiting for you here—remember not to touch the prince’s things.”

"Isn't he allowed to touch his concubine?" Chen Mengchu teased and laughed, "Why are you so afraid of your prince? Does he know how to eat people?"

The slave muttered, "That's certainly more terrifying than cannibalism..."

Then he seriously threatened her and said: "Even if you are the dowry maid brought by the young master, you still have to know the rules. If the prince heard what you said just now, he will definitely cut your tongue off!"

Chen Mengchu kept his mouth shut, and followed Ye Xiaozhou and the others into King Ning's courtyard.

The yard is very ordinary, not much bigger than the one Ye Xiaozhou lives in now, but there are many flowers and plants planted in the yard, some Ye Xiaozhou has never seen before, and some Ye Xiaozhou looks familiar at first glance, but he doesn't know where. seen.

On the contrary, Chen Mengchu recognized it at a glance: "Isn't this a dog's tail grass? And this pot is a sorrel grass, a copper money grass... What kind of hobby does this prince have? Aren't the yards of rich people all raised strange things?" Are there flowers and plants? If you grab a handful of these grasses by the roadside in the countryside, what's there to see?"

At the same time, Ye Xiaozhou heard a dog barking. He looked up and saw a simple kennel built under the eaves of the corridor. There was a little white dog inside. It seemed to smell their scent. It excitedly He jumped out of the tufted cattail in the kennel, but the dog had a leather collar around its neck, so it could only run not far from the verandah, howling at Ye Xiaozhou.

"Xiaobai?" Ye Xiaozhou approached it step by step, and asked incredulously.

As if in response to his name, the little white dog barked even louder.

It wasn't until Ye Xiaozhou picked it up from the ground that the little white dog stopped barking and happily burrowed into his arms.Ye Xiaozhou only thought it looked like Xiaobai that he had accidentally lost, but now that it was burrowing into his arms, he was not convinced anymore.

Firstly, this dog is much fatter than Xiaobai's, and secondly, this dog's fur feels oily and smooth to the touch, much better than Xiaobai's frizzy dog ​​fur.

"You know this dog?" Chen Mengchu looked at Ye Xiaozhou in disbelief, and then took a closer look at the dog.

Ye Xiaozhou nodded uncertainly: "It looks a lot like Xiaobai who I told you before, who was lost by those three people, but I'm not sure...it's too fat."

After speaking, he exchanged a look with the little white dog with aggrieved face, and became even more uncertain.

"This King Ning is really strange. This dog looks like a native dog, nothing special," Chen Mengchu said. "Are rich and powerful people like them living so back to basics?"

Ye Xiaozhou also felt strange, could it be that Prince Ning is Mr. Jingjie's confidant?Or a monk who practices Taoism and pursues returning to nature?

After coming out of King Ning's courtyard, Ye Xiaozhou looked back reluctantly, only to see that little white dog was also staring at him, barking at him.

Ye Xiaozhou muttered: "I always feel that it is my Xiaobai..."

Chen Mengchu said: "Impossible, let's not say that your Xiaobai was lost in Yunxi Village, the capital is so far away from Yunxi, and he is a prince, why go to the village to pick up dogs? These little dogs They all look alike, my dog ​​gave birth to a litter last year, and one of them was white like this."

The three of them wandered around again, and seeing that dusk was approaching, they returned to the side hall.

----

Ye Xiaozhou didn't sleep well all night. For a while, he imagined the picture of Ye Hongfang starving and freezing in prison, and for a while, Jing Min was sitting by the bed, staring at him coldly. Finally, he thought of Knowing that he was about to marry a prince he had never seen before, it would be fine if his body was healthy, but he was still disabled.

He felt that he must have done some heinous and bad things in his previous life, otherwise he would not have to suffer such grievances in this life.

Moreover, Ye Xiaozhou always felt that something was wrong, and couldn't help feeling flustered, which made it even more difficult to fall asleep.

He just opened his eyes and thought wildly about the dawn.

It was only three o'clock that day, and the butler arrived with a bunch of servants and maids. There was also a Xi Niang with a big red flower. As soon as Ye Xiaozhou opened the door, she came in.

"Hey, this young master is really handsome," the bride smiled joyously, "We, Prince Ning, are so blessed."

Ye Xiaozhou gave her a blank look in his heart, and secretly complained very bluntly, so frivolous, is this a Xi Po or a bustard?He didn't like her tone as if she was marrying an oiran very much, so he didn't pay much attention to her.

Butler Wu also warned before leaving: "Today's wedding, His Majesty will be present in person. The princess must remember to obey the rules in front of the emperor. When offering tea to the emperor, don't be too casual. Of course, you don't have to be too formal. Others With Xi Po's guidance, the princess doesn't have to be too nervous."

When Ye Xiaozhou heard that the emperor was coming, his already pale face turned pale again. He always thought that no one who can decide the life and death of others at will is not a good person, and there has never been an emperor in Pingjiang. The complete sense of alienation made Ye Xiaozhou even more nervous.

But Ye Xiaozhou was dragged by them this morning to freshen up, put on his wedding clothes, and put on his phoenix crown, he looked like a porcelain doll who could only sit and not move, wearing a headdress that weighed several kilograms, He could only sit upright, leaning against the bed would be stopped by Xi Po's voice.

"Don't mess up your hair and clothes. When the auspicious time arrives in the afternoon, the Holy Majesty will be seated on the throne," said Xipo. I dare not say it."

She paused, and suddenly there was a meaningful smile on her face: "Young master, do you know how to serve a man?"

Ye Xiaozhou's face was stuffed in the red hijab, at this moment he didn't know, he didn't know, he didn't know.

Fortunately, he was not alone in embarrassment, Cheng Xiaofeng and Chen Mengchu who were guarding beside him also blushed for a moment.

The well-informed Xi Po, who had already cultivated a thick skin like a city wall, was very satisfied with their reaction, seeing that Ye Xiaozhou didn't answer, she continued to talk.

After explaining how to do this and that, and then how to do that and that, seeing that she was going to have a detailed and in-depth chat about what other postures can be changed, Ye Xiaozhou immediately stopped.

"There's no need to go into details," Ye Xiaozhou said in embarrassment, "I already understand."

The Xi Po stopped her mouth in a good manner, and then presented a thin booklet. Ye Xiaozhou glanced down at the three characters "Spring Night Records" on the cover, and understood what was painted here. .

Fortunately, it was covered by a veil, otherwise the redness on his face that was about to bleed would be seen by others.
