[Red Mansion] The first cute rabbit

The oval-shaped face, the flying willow-leaf eyebrows, the right shyness of the girl, the beauty and decency of Princess Mingyao, in front of any prince, are the existence that makes people's heart beat instantly.

Even Yuan Chen, it was hard to believe that she had ten lives on her hands, and that she used Haitang Zui, a poisonous drug that would make people insanely painful before death, to kill.

"There's no need to be too polite." Yuan Chen looked at her motionlessly, with no clear color in his eyes.

Mingyao smiled softly, took an exquisite box from the little girl beside her, and said in a soft voice: "His Highness likes Nanyang sapphire, this is what my brother got by chance, Mingyao is stupid, and has been grinding for several months , to make a small square seal, please don't dislike it, Your Highness."

Yuan Chen took over, the small square seal was exquisitely crafted, the texture, edges and corners, and the engraving were lifelike. Even the great craftsmen in the stone jade workshop may not be able to complete it after several months.

If it weren't for the secret guard's detailed report on her situation, and knowing that the princess with sincere eyes was wandering around in the circle of noble women to inquire about news every day, Yuan Chen would have really believed her words.

The high-ranking empress was so moved, she teased and said with a smile: "Yo, the one for aunt is just a small sachet, and the one for the prince is so precious and thoughtful. It's really a girl who doesn't want to keep it when she grows up." .”

Ming Yao smiled coquettishly and took a quick look at Yuan Chen, then lowered her head with a blushing face: "Auntie is teasing my niece again, Your Highness, look..."

Yuan Chen still looked at her without blinking.

The empress was happy to see the people come madly and said: "Let me just say, Chen'er didn't see Mingyao, look, she was dumbfounded. According to my opinion, the dowry should be sent to your uncle's house graciously." , Mingyao is such a sensible child, she can't be wronged."

Ming Yao was very good at seizing the opportunity and knelt down: "Thank you, empress, thank you...His Royal Highness."

Yuan Chen finally had a reaction. He stepped forward, helped up this heroine with great acting talent, and said in a warm tone: "Princess, you are welcome, you should."

The queen was overjoyed. Although Yuan Chen didn't appear overly affectionate, it definitely exceeded her expectations. A child who is usually deserted can say such a sentence, and he must be happy in his heart.

"Hurry up, go prepare the ceremony. Tomorrow, let the prince go to Zhongshun Palace to complete the ceremony of marriage proposal, and read the imperial decree of marriage in public."

Mingyao thanked the queen again, blushed and withdrew to return home.

"Chen'er, are you satisfied?" Seeing Mingyao walking away, the queen asked happily.

"It's okay." Yuan Chen had a straight face and a flat tone, but in the eyes of the queen, he was just a shy brat, pretending to be.

"Empress Mother, I have one more thing to do here. There is still a large piece of land left unoccupied in the south of the Taihe Palace. I want to surround it and build a garden. After the wedding, I can go out and live for a while. Please tell my father. "

The empress smiled even more happily: "My son is enlightened, and knows that if he has a daughter-in-law, he must avoid the emperor. Well, this matter, I will leave it to the empress."

The queen is impatient, Yuan Chen left before her feet, and she hurriedly came to the Emperor's Yingchun Palace. After seeing the group of beauties wearing expensive skirts, she was even more indignant. As a prince, his son had to be careful to build a garden His father thought about it, these foxes would like to spread the silver on the ground.

The emperor looked at the queen's face and knew her thoughts. In line with the purpose of balancing the harem, he agreed very happily and paid far more than the budget.

Yuan Chen was sitting in the study, carefully recalling the layout of the garden based on what he saw in the little rabbit's dream, and spent the afternoon drawing the general structure into blueprints. He chose an auspicious day to start construction.

On the second day, he obeyed the Queen's order very obediently, and accompanied by the left and right prime ministers, he went to Zhongshun Prince's Mansion to make an appointment, and read out the marriage decree in public.

Princess Mingyao, with both ability and political integrity, is the crown prince and concubine.

Then, the nurturing nun sent by the palace came to the mansion to teach the palace etiquette for the princess, and turned into a rough envoy to hide behind the female officer with his head down and the head of the hidden guard, smiling very simple and kind.

Although there was no news of action from Jia's mansion, His Royal Highness's attitude changed dramatically, which made Princess Mingyao no longer urgent. She was just a young prince waiting at the door. When she was in the East Palace, there were plenty of opportunities to strike.

She put her mind on building momentum for herself, and held a flower viewing meeting almost every day. Within a few days, the sweet story of a childhood sweetheart between His Royal Highness and the beautiful cousin was caught in the snowflakes flying all over the sky and spread all over the capital. corner of the corner.

In order to sharpen a private seal for the crown prince's cousin, the cousin of the princess even broke the beautiful nails that she raised since she was a child, but she didn't care, and said affectionately: "I can give you my life, what about the nails?"

As for the cousin of the prince, he has a deep affection for the cousin of the princess. Once the imperial decree is given, they start to build a palace. It is said that the walls are made of pepper and the bricks are paved with gold. The degree of love for the future princess is different. class.

Concubine Zhongshun was not idle either, chatting about her daughter's extraordinary features in the circle of wives. When she was born, there was colorful light on the roof; Life.

Soon there was a palace of Zhongshun with two empresses, there was a lot of cars and horses in front of the palace, officials and family members flocked in an endless stream, and the congratulatory banquets were full day and night.

Since the death of her grandmother, Baoyu hardly ever went out, sitting in front of the window every day, holding the small red copper stove that Yuan Chen brought from the palace, and carefully studying the imperial examination books that she had never read before. Mr. Zhu was entrusted by Yuan Chen , and often come to answer his questions.

He has a thin face, wearing a white linen jacket, frowning and thinking about a passage in the book.

King Beijing has been here for a long time, after Baoyu chatted with him for a few words, he couldn't stand this crazy lover who never left Sister Lin's three words, threw him a book, and began to use his skills .

"I said Baoyu, what are you doing so hard for? Is that plaque for building the Rongguo Mansion really so important?" King Beijing Jing put the book down, unwilling to be reconciled to being left in the cold. How did this Baoyu become so boring now? .

Baoyu looked away from the book and looked at him, thinking about his question seriously.

Of course, the main reason was to re-hang the plaque of the Rongguo Mansion that my grandmother had been thinking about, but there was another reason, buried deep in my heart, that made me even crazier.

He wanted to be promoted, to be an official, to stand in that court, to be with him in an aboveboard manner.

It's not a white body whose status as a companion can be wiped out by an imperial decree at any time.

Seeing him in a daze, King Bei Jing smiled and took a sip of tea: "Hey, I'm not here to be poor with you, I have to go to the Xingui Zhongshun Palace to congratulate the old man of His Royal Highness, or should we go together? Familiar."

Baoyu stared at him: "What did you say?"

King Bei Jing was stared at inexplicably: "Look, are you dumbfounded again? Give gifts to the upstarts, His Royal Highness, by the way, haven't you been a companion for him for a few months? You have to go to congratulate him because of emotion and reason." Congratulations."

Baoyu still stared at him: "What did you say?"

King Bei Jing shook his head and walked out, sighing exaggeratedly: "Hey, are you stupid when reading? It's not as cute as before."

The dark guard on the beam spat fiercely in his heart at his back: "You are so cute, do you know that you got into a catastrophe?" Seeing nothing, he ran wildly and hurried to the palace.

Baoyu was stunned for a long time before she walked to the couch, pulled out the article review from under the pillow, put it under her nose and sniffed it vigorously, then walked decisively to the charcoal basin, tore one by one, the red The flames rubbed against each other, sprang up at once, and burned a beautiful fire roll. After a while, a book was burned out.

When Yuanchen arrived, Baoyu was still squatting by the brazier, tears streaming down his face.

"It's all fake. I didn't tell you, just because I was afraid that you would be sad." Yuan Chen squatted beside him, stretched out his hand, and gently patted his back.

Baoyu raised his head, looked at the blurred face in front of him, and said with a wry smile: "Your Highness, is the imperial decree fake? It's also fake if you personally come to hire someone?"

Yuan Chen was speechless, looking at the innocence in the tearful big eyes, all his plans, there was not a single word that he could say in front of this person.

Seeing Yuan Chen's silent face and tightly furrowed sword eyebrows, Baoyu was suddenly depressed, how could he be so naive, the old eunuch was right, what dynasty and generation of emperors were not descendants of the prosperous harem?

He wiped away his tears, stood up abruptly, and solemnly bowed to Yuan Chen: "Your Highness, you are busy with government affairs, please go back."

"You...you have to trust me." Yuan Chen also stood up, and wanted to step forward to support Baoyu's arm, but he dodged it.

Yuan Chen stood there awkwardly with his hands outstretched, while Bao Yu sat down at the table after paying his respects, holding a book and looking at it, never looking up again.

The dark guard on the side stepped forward in time to make a rescue: "Your Highness, you should go back to the palace first, the young master will understand."

Looking at Baoyu's skinny face, Yuan Chen had the urge to step forward to take pity on him, but seeing Baoyu's displeased temperament at the moment, he could only look at him with concern, then turned and left in a hurry.

When he arrived outside the mansion, Yuan Chen stood still outside the wall, glaring hard at the dark guard who was following him: "Go, send an order to King Beijing to let him inspect northern Xinjiang on behalf of the emperor for a period of three years."

The King of Beijing, who had just stepped out of the gate while carrying the gift, welcomed the father-in-law who came on horseback to deliver the imperial edict.

"Three years, my Majesty the Emperor, don't you think that people haven't had their wedding and honeymoon yet?" King Bei Jing slandered in his heart, secretly guessing which Buddha he had offended, otherwise, he would have taken the lead with his own cleverness Surrendering to the emperor among the four kings, shouldn't this be the treatment?

The emperor who was soaking in the hot spring with his concubine in the Palace of Yingchun sneezed innocently.

King Bei Jing looked at the gift in his hand again, rolled his eyes, and suddenly realized: "So, this loyal prince thinks it's too late for him to give the gift, this dead old man doesn't have the heart to be the head of the country at all, bah, he even gave the gift , this king wishes you that even if you are the head of the country, you will not be able to marry your daughter, hehe..."

Prince Zhongshun, who was listening to compliments and drinking a lot of wine in the mansion, sneezed loudly without warning, and even sneezed twice in a row.
