The prince is very fierce

Boom

Boom

The morning bells that spread throughout the streets rang again, the morning sun rose in the east, and the people in Chang'an City went about their lives as usual. Except for the addition of some soldiers wearing Xiliang military armor on the streets, it seemed no different from the past.

Four or five days have passed in the blink of an eye. The wind and rain have stopped, and the court has calmed down. Everyone has kept secret what happened on the eighth day of June, and there has been no disturbance in Chang'an City. Rumors spread everywhere, and the imperial court naturally refuted or ignored them. The official announcement stated that Song Ji died suddenly of illness due to overwork, and the new king succeeded to the throne according to etiquette. On the surface, there was no problem; when Su Wang Xu You arrived in Chang'an , the entire Guanzhong was stabilized.

In the back house of the palace, Xu Buling opened his eyes amidst the chirping of cicadas and turned his head to look. Ning Qingye was lying on his arm with her back to her side, her hands holding the skirt of her clothes tightly. Even in her sleep, her face was Shang also had a somewhat helpless coldness.

In order to avoid the limelight these days, Xu Buling did not go out and left everything to the prime minister to arrange. Xu Buling stayed in the palace. Apart from discussing business matters with his staff, he spent most of the rest of his time in the back house, telling stories to Xiaowan, spending time with Qing Ye Hua Qian Yue Xia and so on.

Ning Qingye had a cold personality and really didn't want to talk to Xu Buling, but she couldn't fight or talk to him. The emperor was killed by Xu Buling. She didn't know if there was an undercurrent surging outside, so she didn't dare to go out and wander around alone. Being able to bite the bullet and be teased by Xu Burang, I almost got used to it in a few days.

Xu Bu Ling looked at her carefully for a moment. Ning Qingye woke up after realizing it. Seeing that the hand holding her loosened, she quickly turned to the inside and faced the wall and snorted coldly: "Get out."

Xu Bu Ling put a thin blanket on Ning Qingye's back with a smile on his face. He stood up with satisfaction. After washing, he came to the garden of the back house.

When Xu Buling lived in Chang'an, the garden was not taken care of much. It was left idle for another year. Now it looks little different from wasteland.

Cui Xiaowan has severe obsessive-compulsive disorder and likes to be clean. Early the next morning, she found a small shovel and scissors, and seriously weeded and pruned flowers. After four or five days of busy work, she had already cleared three feet. The surrounding open space is neat and tidy.

At this time, the early sun was just rising. Cui Xiaowan squatted on the lawn and used a small shovel to transplant the strange flowers and plants to the appropriate position. In order not to stain the skirt, the hem of the skirt was lifted up and sandwiched between the knees and the belly, and the two white legs were exposed. Squatting like this...

Xu Buling suffered many losses. When he saw the steamed buns, he knew something was wrong. He looked up at the clouds in the sky and said:

"Miss Cui, are you up so early?"

Cui Xiaowan was working very seriously. When she heard the sound, she raised her head and found Xu Buling standing in the corridor. She pulled down her skirt to cover her white shorts embroidered with peach petals. She smiled with a crooked smile:

"You are very honest today."

Xu Buling stood with his hands behind his hands and said with a smile, "That's natural."

Cui Xiaowan lowered her head and continued to play with the flowers and plants: "I made porridge this morning. I made too much porridge and put it in the dining room. You can go and eat it to avoid wasting food."

"..."

Xu Buling blinked and glanced at Cui Xiaowan, but he couldn't see her expression. He nodded and said, "Thank you," and turned around and came to the dining room.

There were two small porcelain bowls on the table in the dining room, which contained lean meat porridge. It looked delicious and delicious. It was obvious that it was not overcooked, but was specially prepared and given to Qingye.

Xu Bu Ling felt warm in her heart and was not polite at the moment. She sat down at the table and tasted Xiao Wan's thoughts. Before finishing the bowl of porridge, a shout came from outside the Chuihua Gate:

"Little prince!"

Men were not allowed to enter the back house. Xu Buling stood up after hearing the sound, and quickly came to the hanging flower door, looking at the palace guards standing outside:

"What's the matter? Is there an emergency?"

The palace guard stepped forward and said softly: "Little prince, Mrs. Cui from the Cui family has come over. She didn't say why she came, she just said she came to take a look. Mr. Yue was not sure what he meant, so he asked the humble prince to ask the young prince whether he was seeing guests off or not. ?”

"Mrs. Cui?"

Xu Buling looked back at the back house, hesitated for a moment, then turned around and said, "Let me entertain you first, I'll go ask."

"promise."--

After a while.

Mrs. Cui, whose hair was somewhat gray, asked her maid to stay in the living room and went to the back house alone.

As Cui Xiaowan's biological mother, Mrs. Cui obviously felt sorry for her little daughter. Her longing and urgency were undisguised in her eyes, and she quickly walked through the verandah and soon arrived outside the garden.

Xu Buling waited in the verandah, because Cui Huailu's attitude had changed drastically these days, and he was even more enthusiastic than Gongsun Ming. Xu Buling naturally had a very good sense of the Cui family.

There is no long-term enmity between aristocratic families. As long as their interests are consistent, they are friends. Seeing Mrs. Cui coming, Xu Buling gave a polite junior salute:

"Mrs. Cui."

Even Mrs. Cui didn't know what happened in the Taiji Hall, but as the legitimate daughter of a wealthy family, she could easily guess what happened on the eighth day of June. Seeing that Xu Buling's eyes were still a little frightened and nervous, she bowed and bowed. :

"His Royal Highness, you are so polite. Well...I came here to ask about Xiaowan..."

"Mom, I'm here."

Before he finished speaking, a crisp cry came from the garden next to him.

Mrs. Cui was slightly shaken. She had not seen her daughter for many years, but she could definitely hear her voice. She looked over hurriedly and saw Cui Xiaowan standing next to a bonsai with her back turned, pruning flowers. She was dressed in ordinary clothes, just like a maid in the house.

"Xiao Wan..."

Mrs. Cui's heart tightened, and she quickly ran into the garden, raised her hand and hugged Cui Xiaowan.

The mother and daughter reunited, and Xu Buling was too embarrassed to interrupt, so he left the verandah in silence.

Cui Xiaowan's expression didn't change much. She turned her head and said softly:

"Mom, why are you crying? I'm not dead."

Mrs. Cui knew her daughter's temperament, wiped her tears with her sleeves, and stood aside to look at her carefully:

"Xiao Wan, have you not suffered these days? Your sudden departure from Peach Blossom Valley made your second uncle and mother very anxious..."

Cui Xiaowan smiled: "I'm fine. The emperor wanted to kill me, so I ran out, otherwise I wouldn't have left."

Mrs. Cui didn't like to comment on the messy calculations back then. She just looked up and down and asked for help.

Cui Xiaowan was pruning the flower branches. After listening for a while, she asked:

"Dad asked mother to come over, right? If you want to come over, you can come over the next day."

"Well……"

Mrs. Cui choked on her words, stood next to Xiaowan, thought for a while, and sighed softly: "Xiaowan is still so smart. Mom didn't want to disturb you, but you know your father's temper. He is full of thoughts about vulgar things. It was not easy for me to come over, so I encouraged my mother all day long to ask her to come over and take a look at the situation..."

Cui Xiaowan looked calm: "What's going on? Are I sleeping with Xu Buling?"

Mrs. Cui's expression froze. She knew that forcing Xiao Wan to enter the palace made Xiao Wan very dissatisfied, but as the legitimate daughter of a noble family, she could never control the major events in her life.

"Xiao Wan, don't blame your father. He also thinks about the Cui family and the Wang family. With such a large family behind him, sometimes the person in charge can't help it..."

"It's all in the past, don't mention it anymore."

"oh……"

Mrs. Cui pursed her lips, hesitated, then looked back at the corridor. Seeing that Xu Buring was not there, she stepped forward and asked in a low voice: "Xiaowan, what is your relationship with Xu Buring now that you are together?"

Cui Xiaowan blinked her eyes and said seriously:

"I am his aunt, oh by the way, now I am the widow's aunt. Xu Buling is a true gentleman, how could he bully the late emperor's orphan and widowed mother."? ?

Mrs. Cui's eyes were incomprehensible. She thought about it for a moment and then said doubtfully:

"You and Xu Buling... live in the back house, and he treats you like an aunt?"

Cui Xiaowan turned her head: "Then what should he take me for?"

Mrs. Cui was speechless for a moment and thought for a moment: "Actually, the Queen has died a long time ago. You have left the palace and have nothing to do with the Queen. This is the first time that I have seen you willing to get along with a man day and night. If you have that intention... …”

Cui Xiaowan's expression was calm: "I used to be a queen, and I finally got out of the palace. I was spared a lot of trouble. If Xu Buling becomes the emperor, wouldn't I go back again? And Xiao Qi is the principal wife, and I am at most a noble concubine. Okay. It’s not right for the queen to force herself to become a noble concubine, what am I trying to do?”

"..."

It seems to be the same...

Mrs. Cui had nothing to say. She hesitated for a moment and then sighed:

"Forget it, just be happy, Xiaowan, and do whatever you want. You've already died once, and your father is just messing around, so you don't have to worry about it."

"Thank you, mother."

"well……"

Mrs. Cui shook her head, skipped this topic that Xiaowan didn't like, and started chatting again...
