Long live Emperor Wu!

Chapter 43 Why are you angry?

She didn't know where King Jin was at this time, but she knew very well where Princess Jinyang might be at this time.

In the inner garden near Lingyan Pavilion, there is a dripping rock waterfall. Next to the waterfall is a garden open space with a pavilion and a swing.

In this season, the flowers and grass on the ground are luxuriant and the trees are bearing fruits. Recently, Princess Jinyang often goes to play on the swing at this time.

Wu Rou left Arthur in Xiliang Pavilion and took Sanchun to try his luck in the inner garden to see if he could meet King Jin.

Unexpectedly, as soon as they walked around the flower wall of the screen wall, they saw King Jin pushing Princess Jinyang on the swing. The serving maids stood in the shade of a tree in the distance, respectful and silent.

The cool shade is dappled, and when the wind blows, the red skirts and pink skirts of the palace maids flutter gently, like portraits in the garden, which is strange and beautiful.

King Jin was wearing the patched round-neck robe again today, but he had grown taller. Compared to when he first met him, the clothes seemed to fit more closely to his body, and the height of the clothes was also lifted up much.

But even so, it doesn't look like he's stingy, but another kind of handsome.

Tsuruko, a fairy boy, looks better than others even if he is wearing a piece of rag.

He pushed Princess Jinyang on the swing, with a calm smile on his face and thick black hair. The hairband on his head was blown to the front by the wind from time to time, brushing against his healthy and white cheeks, gentle and affectionate, just like that The wind seemed to like him too, secretly caressing his face through the hairband.

Princess Jinyang looked at the blue sky, giggling because of the shaking scenery. When she turned her head, she saw a girl with gentle eyebrows and bright red lips smiling at her.

The clothes of a talented person are not luxurious, but the colors of the clothes are colorful and gorgeous. Standing next to the green flower wall, she looks like a person in a painting.

"Wu Cairen! Sister Wu is here!" Princess Jinyang shouted excitedly and was about to get off the swing.

Jin Wang Li Shan quickly reached out and grabbed the rope of the swing, holding it tightly for fear of falling her.

Turning around, he saw Wu Rou walking over dignifiedly to greet him:

"I've met King Jin, I've met the princess."

King Jin's calm face showed indifference, he nodded slightly as a courtesy, and then said to Princess Jinyang:

"Xi Zi, don't yell. She is my father's concubine and cannot be your sister. If you yell, you will hurt her."

His tone was so gentle and his words were so considerate, Wu Rou could not help but feel warm in her heart.

His face was so cold, but there was no hint of it in his words, and it was even quite heartwarming.

Wu Rou thought to herself that she couldn't blame her for overthinking.

From the first time I met him, I felt that his tone and voice made people feel itchy, like a seductive flower demon.

Princess Jinyang covered her mouth and admitted her mistake;
"I know, I won't do it again..."

Then he jumped off the swing, took Wu Rou’s hand and asked:
"Wucairen, can you play with me today?"

"Well, I have nothing to do today. I just came to play with the princess." Wu Rou said with a smile.

Although she didn't come specifically to see her, she really liked her, and her heart felt so soft that it was about to melt when she saw her.

She didn't like her two biological sisters that much.

Princess Jinyang wore two buns and a small flower in one side of her hair. She was delicate and cute. She shook her hand and said:
"Just in time, I asked my brother to teach me how to play polo. He said I was too young to hold a polo stick, so he made me a new game. It's fun. I'll teach you!"

"Okay."

A few moments later, Wu Rou held up the miniature polo stick in his hand and laughed out loud.

The real polo stick is higher than the horse's back, and in order to prevent it from breaking when hitting, it is made of soaked hardwood, which is indeed very heavy.

And this miniature version is as big as a Ruyi Tickle. It can be pinched and lifted with two thin fingers, and it is also very delicately made.

The three of them sat on a couch side by side on the grass, with the princess in the middle and her and Prince Jin on both sides.

Wu Rou held up the "Itchy Scratch" in her hand, turned her face and asked King Jin with a smile:
"Your Highness came up with this?"

Jin Wang Li Shan ignored her, just crossed his legs and looked ahead. He still held one in his hand and hung it on the edge of the couch, resigned to his fate and allowed Wu Rou to laugh at her.

But if you look closely, you will find that his calm and dignified expression is tense, and even his ears are red.

After Wu Rou found out, she laughed even harder.

"Yes." Princess Jinyang in the middle sat cross-legged, a small ball, turned her head and explained, "My brother drew the picture himself and ordered the minister to make it for me. I also asked my father to play with me. , it’s a pity that he is too busy.”

After she said that, she waved, and a little palace maid knelt down next to her holding a wooden brocade box, opened the lid and pushed it in front of her eyes.

Wu Rou took a look and saw that it was a box of glass beads. They were colorful and sparkling. Each one was as big as a small egg and refracted bright arcs in the sunlight.

Princess Jinyang picked five at random, put them in her hand, and said:
"Each person is divided into five. After a while, he will hit the circle over there. Whoever can hit it in one go will win."

In front of each of them, there was a small hole where the servant had shoveled the grass. It was ten steps away. It was not easy to imagine.

The little palace maid held the box and presented it to King Jin. King Jin didn't look at it, just grabbed a handful and placed it on the grass beside the short couch.

When it was Wu Rou's turn to pick, she picked one up, held it up to the sun and looked at it, and couldn't help but sigh:
"These glazed beads are so beautifully made. They are more transparent than jade, and the patterns are gorgeous and changeable. People can't get enough of them."

"If you like it, I can pick a few more for you." Princess Jinyang said in a sweet voice, but she was very generous and generous.

Wu Rou smiled, and while picking up a few she liked, she said, "I don't want them. What's the point of taking them all by myself? Why don't we put them together and play with the princess."

Princess Jinyang laughed happily when she heard this.

"Brother, you come first." She turned her head and said.

King Jin casually took a glass bead, put it on the ground, and pushed it with his "itchy" finger.

Naturally, he didn't go in. Liuli Zhuzi stopped halfway.

When Princess Jinyang saw this, she puffed her cheeks at him dissatisfied, but King Jin pretended not to see it.He didn't say anything either.

"It's my turn." She turned to Wu Rou and smiled excitedly, then carefully and carefully hit the glass bead with "Tickle".

That posture is a bit like playing polo.

But the more serious he was, the funnier he became... The bead rolled around on the grass a few times and then moved out of position, knocking away all the beads belonging to Prince Jin next to him.

"Ah..." Princess Jinyang was dumbfounded.

"Hahahahahaha..." Wu Rou laughed wildly.

King Jin finally couldn't help but look sideways at her with some surprise.

Wu Rou said: "Princess, this is not as good as His Highness Jin Wang's push. I am so looking forward to it."

"Come here, come here, you will know if you try it, or you will laugh at me." Princess Jinyang complained, but her face was smiling, and her big eyes were crooked, very happy.

Wu Rou rolled up her sleeves, revealing the jade bracelets on her wrists. Her green-white wrists were slender and plump. She leaned on the low couch holding the "Itchy Scratch", imitating Princess Jinyang, and played with the glazed beads. Got out.

The three of them looked at the rolling colorful bead and saw it heading straight towards the circular pit, and then... rolling past the target, getting further and further away.

"Hey... I went too far." Wu Rou said regretfully as she looked at the beads.

"Hahahaha... I want you to laugh at me. I'm closer than you. How far have you flown?" Princess Jinyang squeezed her.

"Hmph... at least I didn't miss the target." Wu Rou raised her chin and was very proud. She was even more naive than Princess Jinyang.

"No, let's change places. It must be because your place is relatively flat."

As she said that, she squeezed over. Wu Rou glanced at King Jin and saw that he looked back with embarrassment, but she didn't object, so she gave up her position and sat next to him.

This distance is considered very close, there is only half a step between the two square couches.

The hems of their clothes and skirts were scattered beside the couch, making them appear even closer.

It had never been this close before.

She didn't know if it was because of a guilty conscience, but she always felt that Prince Jin's dignified and calm temperament seemed to have a built-in barrier that could be seen from a distance but not close up. When he got close, she really felt bullied and uncomfortable.

The maids went to pick up the glass balls.

Wu Rou got close to him every time she hooked up:

"Your Highness, I heard that the Gaochang Kingdom was destroyed and merged into the Tang Dynasty. This has never happened before. I wonder if your Majesty has any other plans? My female officer is of Gaochang ethnicity and is frightened."

King Jin was silent, but he couldn't help but Wu Rou kept looking at him, so he said coldly:

"Don't worry, I won't get involved with the palace maid if something happens."

"Oh..." Wu Rouquan thought his dislike was an illusion and asked with a smile:

"I remembered His Highness's policy on Tuyuhun, which said that it would be incorporated into the Tang Dynasty. Wouldn't His Highness also take the credit this time? I thought His Highness had such a temperament that he didn't like to fight."

King Jin frowned slightly, but still stubbornly refused to look at her and said:

"Whether I like it or not and whether I should do it are two different things. Your Majesty's decision is to ask me what to do, not what I like."

His tone still had his own unique gentle and slow tone, but it was clearly impatient.

"Oh...then why must the country be destroyed and merged into the Tang Dynasty?" Wu Rou asked again, deliberately using the humble and childish tone of a student asking for advice.

King Jin didn't want to pay attention to her and said nothing.

He couldn't help but sigh in his heart for Wu Rou's shamelessness. If it were someone else, she would have been so embarrassed that she couldn't understand anything.

"Brother... I've always wanted to ask, why do you suddenly have such a big opinion against Wu Cairen?" Princess Jinyang suddenly raised her head and asked.

Sure enough, even the children noticed it.

Jin Wang Li Shan sneered lightly and said unhurriedly:

"Hmph... I just don't like people who are eager for quick success. Do you know if she comes to you because she really wants to play with you, or if she wants to get close to my father?"

Wu Rou's face suddenly turned red and she was so ashamed that she couldn't speak.

When Princess Jinyang heard this, she glanced at Wu Rou and said strangely:
"It's normal even if she wants to be close to the father. Who doesn't want to be close to the father?
Those half-brothers and sisters are jealous because none of our direct descendants are close to the father. You don’t care, and you still advise me to forgive...Xu Chongrong always wants to get close to the father, don’t you? Don't care either.Why are you angry when Wu Cairen behaves like this? "
