The movement in front of the swing frame was noticed by the people on the other side of the rockery.

A small red-painted pavilion, built on a high rockery, overlooks the entire garden.

Chu Huainan stood in the mountain pavilion, his apricot yellow silk robe fluttered in the wind, and the dragon-shaped jade pendant on his waist made him look like a gentleman.

His appearance is very attractive and delicate, and the small tear mole under his eyes is like the tears on the bamboo of the concubine Xiang, adding elegance and melancholy like the finishing touch.

He was a very good-looking kind of man.

Cheng Zaixi knelt on the futon, while making tea, quietly looked at his back.

Her mother was murdered, but the killer was never found.

Seeing that she was pitiful, the prince took her by his side as a personal female official.

Fortunately, she was good at piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, cooking tea and wine, so she went out to the banquet with His Royal Highness, so she would not lose his face.

She picked up the hot tea and said respectfully: "Your Highness, please have some tea."

Chu Huainan returned to the futon in silence.

His kneeling posture is very elegant, and he is also very particular about drinking tea.

After taking a sip of tea, he said slowly, "You grew up in Jinguan City, so you should know Baoyi. What kind of girl is she?"

Mingming looked at the teeth and claws, dared to yell at the princess, dared to hit the concubine, dared to shout at the prefect.

But when standing in front of Xiao Yi, he always seemed shy and timid, extraordinarily gentle and delicate.

What a strange girl.

Cheng Zaixi frowned secretly.

His Royal Highness asked Nan Baoyi what to do?

He became interested in Nan Baoyi?

She couldn't help but said, "Don't be afraid that His Highness will laugh at you, Nan Baoyi is a bastard! Betrothed to my brother, but caused my family to be ruined, and my brother died in depression. Whoever marries this kind of woman, Who will be unlucky!"

She cursed like this, but Chu Huainan laughed lowly.

Cheng Zaixi was even more puzzled.

Chu Huainan raised his eyes to look at her, with a smile still on his clear face, "I know that you are not on good terms with her. It is reasonable to curse behind your back. It's just Zai Xi, following your father and Xue Dudu Losing power, Gu's position in Shengjing City is in jeopardy. Gu needs a marriage to stabilize the position of the crown prince."

Being exposed, Cheng Zaixi blushed and bowed his head in silence.

Chu Huainan drank his tea with downcast eyes.

The atmosphere is depressing.

After a long while, Cheng Zaixi suddenly said: "Your Highness, I was brought up by my father since I was a child, and I am not a girl who is not at all scheming. If Your Highness really wants to marry Nan Baoyi, it is better to have a physical relationship with her directly. In this way, Nan Baoyi becomes If she is an unclean person, what reason do the Nan family and Xiao Yi have to prevent her from marrying you?"

Chu Huainan's brows were filled with sadness.

He turned the bone china teacup and said softly, "It's not polite."

"Your Highness, it doesn't matter if you lose power, but have you thought about following your courtiers and their families? Once you lose power, not only your life is in danger, but they will also be implicated. How can Your Highness bear it?"

Cheng Zaixi admired this gentleman who was as gentle as jade.

to this end,

She can even tolerate the woman she hates and marry the prince she loves.

Chu Huainan hesitated.

After an unknown amount of time, the hot tea in his hand gradually cooled down.

He put down the teacup and looked at the bustling garden.

The wealth of the Nan family is what he wants.

Xiao Yi's military power is what he wants.

He must marry Nan Baoyi...

He closed his eyes.

When he opened his eyes again, the clarity in his pupils quietly turned sharp.

He ordered the servant: "Go and give wine to Princess Baoyi... I want that kind of wine with spices."

"Extras?"

"Idiot," Cheng Zaixi scolded, "of course it's something added to the boudoir's entertainment."

The servant came back to his senses and hurriedly nodded to do it.

At this time, gardens and pavilions.

The pavilions in Nanfu are exquisitely and beautifully built, the bamboo curtains are rolled high, the light is bright, a few hibiscus flowers are inserted in the white porcelain vases, the floor is covered with plain purple bamboo mats, and the beautiful satin futons are randomly placed on the ground, which is even more impressive. Clean and comfortable.

Nan Baoyi carried her skirt and stepped up to the balcony.

Concubine Jing and the eunuch's mother were kneeling and sitting by the window, proudly raising their chins, as if waiting for her to come over and say hello.

Pale pink lips, quietly showing a sneer.

In the past, she regarded Concubine Jing as her aunt, treated her well, and loved her filially, but sincerity could not be exchanged for sincerity.

Seeing you in private now, I want her to salute and dream.

She showed a sweet smile, nodded politely, and then knelt down in front of the short table, slowly pouring tea with her sleeves rolled up.

This behavior fell into Ma Shi's eyes, which made her very unhappy.

She sneered at Princess Jing: "This is the upbringing of Nanfu!"

Princess Jing shook the round fan lightly.

Xiao Yi was also there, filling her with fighting spirit.

Like the first time she saw Nan Baoyi, she blamed Nan Baoyi fondly and said: "You child, this is Ma Taishou's mother, she asked you to come up to speak, why didn't you come over to say hello? When I saw this concubine At that time, didn’t you know the rules? Could it be that you looked down on the old lady? Snobbish, Jiaojiao, this is not good!”

Nan Baoyi bent his lips and smiled.

She took a sip of tea, and looked meaningfully at Xiao Yi who was sitting opposite.

The second brother's aunt is really interesting. In front of the second brother, she didn't forget to put eye drops on her.

Is that how you dislike her?

"Concubine Jing," she said with a smile, "So this old lady is the mother of the prefect Ma. Forgive my blindness, you are inseparable from her, I thought she was your mother-in-law."

Princess Jing choked.

She was upset, and secretly gave Nan Baoyi a sharp look.

Nan Baoyi turned a blind eye, and continued: "Say hello to this kind of thing, if we really investigate it, shouldn't the low-status greet the high-status? Why do you want me to greet the prefect's mother, she is just a white body. Concubine Jing, you How come you don't understand any rules when you grow up so big?"

Princess Jing: "..."

This girl has such a clever mouth!

Because of Xiao Yi's presence, she couldn't get angry casually, so she forced herself to smile and said, "Rules are rules, but Mrs. Ma is an elder, and Jiaojiao is a junior, so she has to say hello to her. The so-called respecting the old and loving the young is the reason. "

Mashi snorted softly, took a sip of tea, and raised his head high again, waiting for Nan Baoyi to take the initiative to say hello to her.

Nan Baoyi smiled: "Grandma is good."

grandmother……

Mashi almost spat out tea!

Princess Jing was even more embarrassed.

She wants Ma Shi to be Nan Baoyi's mother-in-law. What's the matter with "grandma"?

She couldn't help scolding: "Jiaojiao, how can you call her grandma?!"

"But she is as old as my grandmother," Nan Baoyi said with a small face innocently, "Don't call her grandma, could she call her cousin? I don't care, I'm afraid that if it spreads, others will laugh at her."

cousin……

Ma Shi's old face was full of embarrassment, wishing he could smash the teacup on Nan Baoyi's head!

Princess Jing was even more angry.

She had no choice but to make things clear: "That's how it is. I heard that Jiaojiao admires Prefect Ma very much, and seems to intend to marry him. Therefore, I specially acted as a matchmaker for Jiaojiao, and wanted you to meet your future mother-in-law so that you could speak clearly. "
