A tree of peach blossoms pressing the prime minister

Chapter 37 Women Should Stand Behind

Impatiently looking up at her, Shen Zaiye paused.

In the past, Jiang Taohua used to wear makeup in the mansion, and she looked very bright.Today is good, her face is fair and clean, and her dress is also elegant and decent, like the little girl next door.

Jiang Taohua looks very soft and clean, looking at it makes people feel comfortable and want to get close, but she always likes to wear heavy makeup.Although it is also good-looking, heavy makeup is like wearing a mask, always keeping a distance from people.

After looking at her for a while, he couldn't help asking: "Why don't you usually dress like this in the mansion?"

"You like it?" Taohua was surprised: "Don't you men like women with makeup? You wrote it all about 'biting the rouge lightly, rubbing your cheeks against your concubine's cheeks'."

The corners of his eyes twitched slightly, and Shen Zaye's eyes sank slightly: "Are you still reading these obscene poems?"

"..." With a few dry laughs, Taohua pretended to be stupid and looked out the window: "Today's weather is clear and warm, so it's a good time to go out for an outing!"

Before taking two steps back, the collar was pinched by someone, and then the whole person was carried onto the soft couch by Shen Zaino, and put into his arms.

"Don't always try to hide when things happen."

Talking as if uttering a letter from a snake, Shen Venom hugged her, and gently caressed her temple hair: "My lord has asked, and you have to answer, understand?"

Shivering, Taohua stretched out her arms and hugged him, buried her head and said: "I understand."

"To be honest, when my master taught me charms before, he would let me see what a charming woman looks like in a man's eyes, so I would read these poems. After reading a lot, I would blurt it out naturally."

It turned out to be like this, Shen Zaiye nodded, thinking it was quite normal.However, when he came back to his senses, his body was almost numb from her embrace.

"Why are you holding me so tight?"

Taohua lowered her head and said: "Master said this is a defensive move, you can't hit my head."

Shen Zaye: "..."

What is this stupid woman thinking all day?Could it be that he is a dignified prime minister and would do something to a woman? !

Smiling angrily, he stretched out his hand to lift her away, straightened her up and stood on the ground in front of the couch: "Don't worry about it, Nan Wang will arrive later, go to the gate of the mansion and wait."

"Okay!" Taohua nodded, and ran away!

How scary is he?With a soft click, Shen Zaiye got up unhappily, straightened his robe and walked out.

Today's weather is indeed very good, the sun shines on people, which makes people have an urge to go for an outing.

"Let's go for an outing!"

Standing at the gate of Xiangfu, Mu Wuxia really said that.A pair of clear eyes looked at the peach blossoms, full of gentleness.

Jiang Taohua was taken aback for a moment, then blinked and looked at him, then at Shen Zaiya behind him.

"Outing?" Shen Zaiye frowned slightly: "You and Jiang?"

"Yes." Mu Wuxia smiled, with his two small hands behind his back, his back still straight: "Today just happens to be the Spring Festival, and there are peach blossoms on Yingxian Mountain. Is it the beauty of peach blossoms, or the beauty of people."

The mansion had prepared things for a long time, but Nanwang didn't go in at all today?Then what is the use of her staying in Linwu Academy for so many days?

Sighing in my heart, there was still a smile on the peach blossom face: "It's not right for me to accompany the prince alone, why don't I bring the prime minister?"

"You don't have to worry about this." After glancing at Shen Zaye, Mu Wuxia said: "This king has brought guards, and you can also bring maids, that's enough to avoid suspicion."

Having said that, Peach Blossom has nowhere to go, so she can only turn her head to look at Shen Zaiye.

Prime Minister Shen's complexion was not very good-looking, and he had to force a smile: "The prince is a little dissatisfied with this humble minister?"

"No." Mu Wuxia said seriously: "The prime minister has done a great job in everything, and this king will not have any dissatisfaction."

"Then today is..."

"Today, the king just wants to chat with Mrs. Jiang, and Xiangye will inevitably feel a little uncomfortable. Why don't you just let her go for a day and play with the king."

After a pause, he added with serious eyes: "Don't worry, if you borrow something, you will pay it back. This king will never steal anything from the prime minister."

Shen Zaiye was silent, gently twisting his hands behind his back, and his eyes fell softly on Nan Wang.

The warm wind blew past the door, causing Jiang Taohua's fairy skirt to flutter slightly.Nan Wang waited quietly, his eyes stubborn.

After a long time, Shen Zaiye smiled lightly and said, "Since the prince wants to, then go. Although Mrs. Jiang is only a lady in the house, how old is the prince, and the prince doesn't have to take care of her. On the contrary, if the prince has any losses, he will be fine." The minister will settle accounts with her."

Nan Wang frowned, looked him up and down, and said seriously: "Prime Minister Shen, you will be very unattractive to women."

"Don't worry, my lord, Xiangye is just talking like a knife, so he won't be willing to punish my concubine." Taohua turned her head and smiled coquettishly at Shen Zaiye: "Thank you for your kindness, my concubine is going out now."

Shen Zaiye squinted his eyes, and wanted to ask her where she got the confidence to say that he was not willing to punish her.However, because of Nan Wang's presence, he could only nod his head and watch the two of them get into the car.

Prince Nan is getting smarter and smarter. He knows that some things must be avoided in order to know the truth.However, this trick might be more effective if it were another woman. A woman like Jiang Taohua, who was as clever as a little fox, would not seek death by herself even if she was not in front of him.

The carriage went far away, so Shen Zaiye turned around and went back to the mansion, continuing to deal with official duties.

This time was the real trip out of the house to see the scenery of Wei, Taohua sat in the car, she was in a great mood, and she looked at Nan Wang with extremely gentle eyes.

Mu Wuxia was a little taken aback by her look, and couldn't help asking, "Do you have a younger brother?"

"Huh?" Jiang Taohua was surprised: "How do you know?"

"Because my sister used to like to look at me that way." Mu Wuxia said with a light smile, "No wonder you always feel kind, you look so much like her."

That's it, Tao Hua nodded, and smiled when she thought of Chang Jue: "The concubine's younger brother is also somewhat similar to the prince, he is upright, stubborn and obstinate."

"Is this king stubborn?" This evaluation surprised Mu Wuxia: "People say that this king is stupid."

"If you were really stupid, you wouldn't bring your concubine out today." Tao Hua smiled, looked at him and said, "I want to ask something that you can't ask in the Prime Minister's Mansion, right?"

Restraining his expression, Nan Wang nodded solemnly: "The reason I brought you out this time is to ask, will the Prime Minister continue to treat you harshly?"

"No." Taohua said: "You just saw that Xiangye is a knife-mouthed bean curd heart, since the last time he went back, he has been very kind to me. Speaking of which, I must thank you."

"Prince Xie Ben doesn't need it." Eyelids drooped, the little prince gently closed his hands on the cushion, as if he was entangled in something.

Tao Hua waited patiently, she knew that Nan Wang would not bring her out just for this matter, there must be other problems.

"You... have been living in the Linwu Academy, haven't you?"

"Yeah, the master is not feeling well recently, and the concubine has been taking care of her in the yard."

Nodding, Mu Wuxia cleared his throat, and asked in a deep voice, "Then do you know who he has met in the mansion recently?"

It turned out to be asking this?Taohua raised her eyebrows, and blinked at him: "Why does the prince ask this?"

"Recently, I feel that the prime minister's behavior is not right, so I just want to ask." Mu Wuxia smiled, his small face looked extremely nervous, and there was a little guilt in his eyes: "I shouldn't ask you, but apart from you, The rest of the Xiangfu will not tell me a single word."

That's it, Taohua thought about it.There is an extraordinary close connection between Nan Wang and Shen Zaiye, but on this basis, Nan Wang is guarding against Shen Zaiye.

Then she said or not?Shen Zaiye only asked Nan Wang to believe that he was good to her. This matter was out of scope, and he didn't give any instructions.

Probably did not expect Nan Wang to ask such a question.

He raised his eyes and looked into the eyes of the little prince, there was no conspiracy, but he was not innocent either. The 16-year-old Prince Nan already knows the world, but he doesn't intend to follow the others.

With a slight movement in her heart, Jiang Taohua couldn't help but tilt the balance in his heart, and said in a low voice:

"In the past few days, I have only seen a fat man wrapped in a cloak in the middle of the night. I don't know who it is, but... maybe it has something to do with the Meng family."

"Fat man? The Meng family?" Mu Wuxia was taken aback for a moment, then thought for a while and said, "The fattest person in the court is the servant Meng."

Meng Zhenzhen's biological father?It's no wonder that the Meng family was picked out of the poisoning incident the next day, and the price Meng Taipu paid must not be small.Thinking about it, Taohua couldn't help curling her lips, but she still looked at Nanwang more curiously and asked:
"Does it affect you in any way?"

"It doesn't have any effect." Mu Wuxia came back to her senses, looked at her with a smile and said, "But thank you for telling me."

"Talking about thank you, the prince saved my life." Tao Hua said seriously: "If there is anything I can do to help, I will definitely help you all the time, just ask."

Slightly taken aback, Mu Wuxia tilted his head, and said with emotion: "You are really like my sister, who is willing to stand by my side despite the pressure from Prime Minister Shen."

His little face is tender and tender, his eyelashes are long and thick, and he has two small canine teeth when he smiles, which made Taohua want to reach out and rub him.However, due to the difference in status, she could only nod respectfully: "If the prince doesn't dislike it, I would like to take care of you like a sister."

"Don't listen to Prime Minister Shen." Mu Wuxia suddenly became serious, straightened her waist and looked at her, and said, "Just now he said he asked you to take care of me, which is wrong. Men should take care of women, no matter how much older than me, You should stand behind me and don't have to think about how to take care of me."

Look how manly their children are!Jiang Taohua was so moved when he heard that, she couldn't help but stretched out her hand to pinch his face, and said lovingly, "But my lord, you are only sixteen, you are not yet weak, so you are not considered a man."
