Ning Guogong Mansion, in the front hall of the three-room building.

Today, Zhao Xi is not wearing men's clothing, but is wearing a gold and silver court dress with embroidered patterns of birds and phoenixes, which is bright and eye-catching.

Zhao Xi couldn't mess around when he entered the palace to express gratitude. If he messed around in such a formal occasion, he would inevitably be punished, and Zhao Xi knew it well.

Zhao Xi took a few sips from the tea cup, but his eyes were carefully looking at the gentle Xiang Ling. Xiang Ling noticed Zhao Xi's look, and couldn't help but feel nervous. Her timid appearance added a bit of charm and pity.

"Your name is Xiangling, right?" Zhao Xi asked.

Xiangling responded weakly: "Yes, grandma, my name is Xiangling."

Hearing grandma's address, Zhao Xi couldn't help but frowned and reminded: "I will call you Your Highness from now on."

Xiangling thought she had offended Zhao Xi, and felt even more nervous. She clutched her handkerchief tightly and said, "Yes, Your Highness."

Seeing Xiang Ling's panicked look, Zhao Xi realized that his previous tone was serious, so he changed his face to a kind smile and said, "Come here, come closer."

Xiang Ling approached anxiously, Zhao Xi stretched out his hand to lift Xiang Ling's chin and looked at it, and after a while he praised: "It's so beautiful."

Generally speaking, it is not a good sign for a serious grandma to praise the beauty of the maid next to a man. Thinking of this, Xiang Ling became more and more nervous.

Zhao Xi didn't take it seriously and asked softly: "Where is your hometown?"

Xiangling looked a little melancholy when she heard this and replied: "I don't remember."

Zhao Xi continued to ask: "Then where are your parents?"

Xiangling replied: "I don't remember."

Zhao Xi raised his eyes and looked at Xiang Ling. It was rare that his hometown and parents didn't remember him. After a deep thought, Zhao Xi continued to ask: "Who gave you your name?"

Hearing this, Xiangling became interested and hurriedly said: "Miss Bao is here."

Zhao Xi nodded when he heard this and said, "It was Bao Ya who started it. No wonder. How could your master know about the fragrance of water chestnut flowers?"

Judging by his tone, it seemed that he didn't like Jia Yun very much. At this moment, Xiang Ling became increasingly confused about how to answer. The person in front of her had a distinguished status and was a serious grandma in the house, so she couldn't afford to offend him.

Seeing Xiang Ling becoming more and more uneasy, Zhao Xi took Xiang Ling's hand and smiled: "Why are you so nervous? I don't know how to eat people."

Seeing Zhao Xi's kindness, Xiangling smiled and said, "I'm a humble servant, so I'm afraid I'll neglect His Highness."

Hearing this, Zhao Xi joked: "If a beauty like you is crude, then the people in this world will be very crude."

Listening to Zhao Xi's compliments, Xiang Ling smiled and said: "Your Highness, you are serious. This slave is far inferior to Your Highness. You are the most beautiful person in the country, and you are astonishing to everyone in the world."

Zhao Xi didn't pay attention to Xiang Ling's praise. Instead, he saw that Xiang Ling's conversation was quite scholarly, so he asked: "Look at your conversation, how many years have you studied?"

Xiangling replied: "My slave has never studied. That is to say, I am kind-hearted and allow my slave to study and learn poetry. Miss Lin and Miss Bao in the mansion will also teach me from time to time. I have learned a little bit, but I can't get on the stage."

Zhao Xi saw that Xiang Ling's expression changed when she talked about studying, and said with a smile: "If you like it, I have some unique copies in my room. I'll get them to you tomorrow."

Hearing this, Xiangling responded excitedly: "Thank you, Your Highness, for the reward."

Zhao Xi smiled and nodded, feeling more and more comfortable looking at the beauty in front of him. This Xiangling was delicate and graceful, and the girl from Qingwen just now was also pretty. Although he didn't like Jia Yun, the people around him were all nice.

of.

At this moment, Jia Yun walked in, saw Zhao Xi holding Xiang Ling's hand, and frowned: "What are you doing?"

When Xiangling saw Jia Yun coming, she quickly pulled her hand back and said, "Sir, you're here."

Jia Yun nodded, stepped forward and cupped his hands and said, "I have met Her Highness the Princess."

Zhao Xi looked slightly unswerving, this Jia Yun is simply a broom star, he always does bad things when he is in a good mood, it is really disgusting.

Zhao Xi nodded lightly without opening his mouth.

Jia Yun didn't take it seriously and said calmly: "Your Highness, the carriage is ready. It's getting late. It's time to enter the palace to express gratitude."

With a "hum", Zhao Xi didn't bother to pay attention to Jia Yun, and took the lead to walk out of the house, and Jia Yun followed immediately.

.....................

In the carriage, Jia Yun and Zhao Xi sat opposite each other. After groaning, Jia Yun reminded: "Your Highness, please don't forget the agreement you made with me. You have gone too far."

Zhao Xi knew that Jia Yun was talking about getting close to the maid next to Jia Yun, so he said arrogantly: "I just said a few words. As for making a fuss, I will not forget the agreement, and the uncle must also remember the agreement."

.”

Jia Yun sneered and said, "Xia Guan has never interfered with His Highness's affairs, but Your Highness, you, first were Xi Guan's aunt, and now you are concerned about Xi Guan's maids."

Zhao Xi frowned, dissatisfied with Jia Yun's tone, and said sarcastically: "It's just a few words with your maid, why is it worth making such a fuss about."

This is the case in this era. No matter how you favor her, a maid is still a maid, and her status is like this.

Jia Yun said in a deep voice: "The maid is also someone close to the official."

When Zhao Xi heard this, he was immediately speechless. They had promised not to interfere with each other at the beginning. Now it seems that Jia Yun did a good job. On the contrary, Zhao Xi himself did a little worse. Faced with Jia Yun's questioning, Zhao Xi was in the wrong.

Speechless.

After a pause, Jia Yun asked bluntly: "Your Highness, I will not talk nonsense with you. I will tell you directly. After thanking you today, I will invite Your Highness to return to your princess's mansion, except for the New Year's and festival banquets in the palace."

No need to deal with it.”

Jia Yun's words are very clear. Since the two houses live in separate places, there is no need to contact...

Hearing this, Zhao Xi looked embarrassed, not because of how he treated Jia Yun, but according to Jia Yun's words, wouldn't it mean that Baochai and Daiyu could no longer be seen, as well as the charming ladies in the house, this

Not good...

After pondering for a moment, Zhao Xi tentatively said: "If that's the case, I'm afraid that my father, the emperor, and the empress will blame me. Let's do this. Our agreement still stands, but I will occasionally go to your residence to stay temporarily for a while, so that others won't be able to talk too much."

Although the royal family has royal rules, if as Jia Yun said, the two palaces really do not interfere with each other and do not interact with each other, it will easily become the laughing stock of the capital, and the face of the royal family will be difficult to save. By then, both Zhao Xi and the Jia family will

No benefit will be obtained.

Naturally, Jia Yun also knew this. Discord was discord, but it had to be put aside for the sake of face.

However, Jia Yun was not in a hurry. He also had a rough idea of ​​Zhao Xi's temperament. From the moment Zhao Xi took the lead, Jia Yun had the upper hand. The initiative was in Jia Yun's hands, so Jia Yun showed a loving attitude.

An indifferent look.

As expected, Zhao Xi saw Jia Yun's indifferent expression, endured the dissatisfaction in his heart, and asked: "What's going on? You can give me an explanation."

After pondering for a moment, Jia Yun said: "What Your Highness said is reasonable, but I have a request, and I hope Your Highness will grant it."

Listening to Jia Yun's request, Zhao Xi immediately understood Jia Yun's purpose. He was trying to trick her.

After groaning, Zhao Xi frowned and said, "Let's talk and listen."

Seeing Zhao Xi's heartbeat, Jia Yun raised the corner of his mouth slightly, sat up straight and said seriously: "Xia Guan's eldest aunt works as a female official in your Highness's Princess Mansion. The Ning Mansion and the Princess Mansion are only one street apart. Xiaguan wanted to let her go."

My eldest aunt serves her parents, so she would like to ask her to live in the Ning Mansion temporarily. In this way, she can take care of the affairs of the princess's mansion without delaying her filial piety. What do you think, Your Highness?"

Zhao Xi was startled when he heard this, and was about to refuse, but after thinking about it carefully, it was not a big deal for Yuan Chun to stay in Ning Mansion temporarily. After all, Zhao Xi would come to visit from time to time, and it could also suit Yuan Chun's feelings.

As for why Yuanchun didn't live in Rongfu, the simple reason is that Zhao Xi is now from Ningfu, not Rongfu...

After thinking for a moment, Zhao Xi said: "I will go and ask Sister Yuanchun what she wants first."

Hearing this, Jia Yun knew that the matter was settled. Zhao Xi wanted to ask Yuan Chun. As for Yuan Chun, even if she knew that this was Jia Yun's arrangement, she would jump in because otherwise, there are still restrictions in the princess's mansion.

It's better to live in Ning Mansion and fulfill your filial piety. It's such a temptation. If you don't believe in Yuanchun, you won't obey...

Thinking of this, Jia Yun said: "Your Highness, I have made it clear in advance that Your Highness is not allowed to point fingers or touch things in the house. I have heard about your temper. I would like to say it is disrespectful, sir."

Understand the ideas of those around you."

Zhao Xi frowned when he heard this and said: "Don't use your dirty head to think about things. It's just the closeness of your daughter's family, but you are becoming dirty."

Jia Yun glanced sideways at Zhao Xi and asked sarcastically: "Your Highness, do you have anything from a man's house?"

Zhao Xi couldn't help but her ears turned red when she heard this. What else could a man have? Zhao Xi had seen it in books. This was a mockery of her...

Shocked, Zhao Xi sneered: "It's just stubbornness, what's the big deal."

Stubbornness, this word... made Jia Yun unable to refute it. He remembered that Jia Yun used to be an errand in the palace, and heard that Zhao Xi had purchased "Mr. Jiao"...

After a pause, Jia Yun said narrowly: "The stubbornness you mentioned can make my daughter's family want to die. Your Highness will know it once you have tasted it."

"Bah, a dog's mouth can't spit out ivory." Zhao Xi spat in shame and anger. Such words were too much and were completely humiliating her.

Jia Yun was too lazy to pay attention to Zhao Xi. The goal had been achieved. Needless to say, as for letting Zhao Xi enter the house, Jia Yun had warned Baochai Daiyu and the others that it would be okay. Even if something happened, her daughter's family would not deserve it.

What.

Immediately, Jia Yun closed his eyes to rest, Zhao Xi was so angry that his teeth were itching, and the carriage drove all the way towards the imperial city......
