prosperous power pet

Chapter 106 I want to be the fifth concubine!
Hearing Xiao Er's urgent voice, Gong Ling was slightly surprised, straightened up and smiled embarrassedly at Song Qinghuan, "Your Highness, I'm really sorry."

Song Qinghuan pursed her lips lightly, "It's okay, you go and see what's going on."

Gong Ling gratefully agreed, got up, walked to the door and opened the door.

Song Qinghuan glanced sideways, and sure enough, she saw a famous young man standing at the door with an eager look on his face, and when he saw Gong Ling coming out, his eyes lit up, showing a look of relief.

"What's the matter? Didn't you see that I'm here with the guests?" Song Qinghuan heard Gong Ling ask in a low voice.

"Girl, the guest next door had some wine and was dissatisfied with the girl who was serving him. He insisted on asking you to come and accompany me. No matter how much I can persuade you, I can't persuade you." Xiaoer also had a helpless expression, and bowed to Gong Ling in a low voice.

The guest next door?

Song Qinghuan's eyes moved slightly.

Could it be that someone made trouble by drinking?If so, she might as well leave first and come back another day.I have already read the score on the left and right, and I think I can't get any information from Gong Ling for the time being.

At this time, seeing Gong Ling frowned and asked again, "Who is this guest?"

"It's Mr. Li and the others who come here often. It's just that this time there is a stranger who came together. I think he is very expensive in his clothes, and the other gentlemen are all centered on him. I'm afraid it's some big shot." Er explained lowly, "They had some wine and felt that the girl serving them was not clever enough or good at playing the piano, so they insisted on asking you to come over. The younger one said that you have a guest now, so there is no way to go over, and that they wanted to change a girl for them. They didn't agree, and they had been arguing for a long time. Seeing that they are not ordinary guests, I came to you for advice."

Song Qinghuan's heart skipped a beat when he heard the words.

How many people are Mr. Li, and there is a young man who is dressed in a particularly luxurious manner?This description sounds...why does it look so much like Song Yan and those aristocratic princes and brothers who came to Qianzhan Pavilion with him?

If this is the case, then there is really nowhere to find it!
After hearing Xiao Er's words, Gong Ling's brows and eyes drooped slightly, as if hesitant.

Mr. Li and the others mentioned by Xiao Er are frequent visitors of Qianzhan Pavilion. They are all the sons of important officials in the court and should not be offended.What's more, this time a strange young master came, and according to Xiaoer's description, his identity was even more extraordinary.None of these people can be offended.

But Empress Wuyang is here again...

She turned her head to look at Song Qinghuan with some embarrassment.

Song Qinghuan understood, but pretended not to know, and smiled at her, "What happened?"

Gong Ling signaled Xiao Er to wait at the door first, then walked lightly to Song Qinghuan and said, "Your Highness, I'm really sorry. The guests in the next room had some wine and started arguing, but Xiao Er couldn't stop it, so I just I can come to find the Minnv."

Song Qinghuan looked slightly pensive, "The next room?"

Gong Ling nodded and said apologetically, "It's in the private room next door. If it's convenient for your highness, can you allow the girl to go and see the situation first, and come back soon after appeasing the emotions of several guests."

Song Qinghuan thought about it, and smiled at her, "Miss Gongling, if you have something to do, go first, I don't have anything to do here." After finishing speaking, he glanced at the music score on the long table, picked it up and handed it back to her. She, "Miss Gong Ling, if you think of anything related to this score, next time I come here, please tell me the truth."

Gong Ling hurriedly took it, her mouth should be straightforward, "Your Highness, please rest assured, if the girl thinks of anything, she will definitely tell His Highness in time."

"Okay." Song Qinghuan nodded slightly, "You go to work first."

"Your Highness, do you want the girl to call someone to serve you?"

"No need." Song Qinghuan shook his head, "I just need to stay alone."

Gong Lingying did so, saluted her respectfully, and then followed Xiaoer to the private room next door.

As soon as she left, Song Qinghuan's gentle gaze cooled down instantly, and a cold smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Unexpectedly, Song Yan was next to her.What a coincidence, it seems that even God is helping her!

She went to the door and fastened the latch, then picked up an empty wine cup on the long table, went to the wall and put the cup upside down on the wall, with her ear on the bottom of the cup, listening attentively to the movement next door.

In this way, the sound of the next door can be amplified and concentrated, so that the sound that cannot be heard on the other side of the wall can be heard.

Sure enough, there was movement from the next door, and it was Gong Ling's voice.

"My little girl, Gongling, has met some young masters."

"Miss Gongling, you are here, it's really hard to invite!" A man's teasing voice sounded.

"I'm really sorry for neglecting Mr. Li. It's really the young lady who is accompanying the guests, and I won't be able to leave for a while." Gong Lingqingyue's voice sounded unhurriedly, with a hint of apology, but without appearing Flattery.

"What kind of guests can let Miss Gong Ling leave us?" Some people seemed dissatisfied.

"Mr. Zhang was joking. The Qianzhan Pavilion opened the door to welcome guests. Naturally, there is no reason to refuse guests. The young masters are all distinguished guests. No, the young girl hurried over when she heard that the young masters were coming."

"Miss Gongling still knows style." Someone sighed, "Once I see Miss Gongling, all the other girls in this building become vulgar things."

Gong Ling chuckled, "Young Master Kong is overrated."

Song Qinghuan held his breath, listened to the conversation next door, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

She had heard of these Li Gongzi Zhang Gongzi Kong Gongzi, their fathers were all officials in the court and Wei Rong's faction, no wonder they got close to Song Yan.

At this time, Gong Ling's faint voice sounded again, "This young master looks strange, I don't know how to address him?"

Seeing Song Yan being asked, Song Qinghuan's expression froze, and he breathed lightly.

When Gong Ling asked about Song Yan, everyone hesitated for a moment, but Song Yan spoke up by himself, with a gentle voice, "I am Yan Song."

The corner of Song Qinghuan's mouth twitched into sarcasm, but Song Yan really didn't dare to show his real name to others.However, with her own pseudonym Qin Huan in front, she wonders if Gong Ling can realize that Yan Song is the current crown prince Song Yan?
"So it's Mr. Yan. It's the first time we meet, please take care of Mr. Yan." Gong Ling's voice has not changed, and it is still clear and polite.

Song Yan looked at the woman standing tall in front of him, his eyes darkened.

This is his first visit to Qianzhan Pavilion.

He had heard about Qianzhan Pavilion's reputation in Jian'an for a long time. They said that Qianzhan Pavilion had the most mellow wine and the most beautiful girls in Jian'an.It's just that because of his status, he never had the opportunity to come to Qianzhan Pavilion.

In the past few days, because of the draft at the end of the month, he had some conflicts with his mother, and a few days ago, his father had not done a good job, so he was severely reprimanded by his father, and he was very upset.

The sons of the courtiers who were close to him saw that he had been listless and angry for the past few days, so they couldn't help but drag him to Qianzhan Pavilion, saying that they wanted him to relax.

He really needed an outlet to vent his anger, and after half-push, he followed.

When I arrived at the Qianzhan Pavilion, there were fine wines and beauties to accompany me.

This wine is indeed good wine, no worse than the royal wine in the palace.

But what about this beauty... The beauties from the entire Chen Kingdom were gathered in the palace. He was used to seeing all kinds of fat, swallows and thin, so his vision was naturally sharper than ordinary people.So when I looked at the two girls from the music workshop in Qianzhan Pavilion just now, I felt that their appearance was mediocre, and their piano skills were mediocre.

The others are all human beings, when they saw his lack of interest, why didn't they understand?That's when the noise made Xiao Er invite Gong Ling over.

Song Yan's inquisitive look fell on Gong Ling's face.

He has been in the top position for a long time, and he has a majestic and majestic aura that is not angry.When the two girls saw him just now, they couldn't help feeling timid, but the girl in front of her, though respectful, was indifferent, without the slightest bit of flattery, nor the slightest timidity of seeing a big man.

Her appearance is not amazing to Song Yan who has seen too many beauties of all colors, but her eyes that look forward to shine are wonderful.

——The eyes contain spring water, gurgling and gurgling, with an aura like empty mountains and clouds, so clear that it seems to be able to see through people's hearts at a glance.

For such a pair of beautiful girls, his first impression was not bad, he nodded slightly, which was regarded as a response to Gong Ling's salute.

Li Xun, who was at the side, saw Song Yan's eyes pause on Gong Ling's face, rolled his eyes, and said flatteringly, "Brother Yan, this is the girl Gong Ling we often mention to you."

"As expected." Song Yan nodded slightly, with a slight smile on his lips.

Li Xun thought about it.

Song Yan is the prince, and he has seen so many beautiful women of national beauty, it is really not easy to be praised by him as "living up to his reputation".It seems...he has a good impression of Gong Ling.

As long as Song Yan is coaxed to be happy, won't there be many benefits for them in the future?

He glanced at Song Yan calmly, feeling a little bit concerned in his heart.

Gong Ling glanced at Song Yan slightly, and spoke again in a clear voice, "I heard from Xiao Er, you gentlemen are not very satisfied with the girl that the other party just served? I don't know...why are you dissatisfied?"

Li Xun wanted to please Song Yan wholeheartedly, so he spoke first, "Since Qianzhan Pavilion is a music workshop, the girls in the workshop must not be inferior in instrumental music, right? Just now, Mr. Yan said, those two girls of yours just now, The skill of playing the piano is there, but the music played is not emotional at all, is this your level?"

Gong Ling was startled when she heard this.

One thing is that these young masters of aristocratic families are already honorable, but judging by their attitude towards this young master Yan, they are very respectful.Could it be that Mr. Yan's status is higher than these few?The second is that Mr. Yan's attainments in music and music are much higher than that of Li Xun and the others.Only those who really know how to listen can hear whether the emotion in a piece of music is full and real.

Yan Song.

What is the origin of this Mr. Yan?
She didn't dare to be negligent, so she hurriedly bowed and said apologetically, "The young masters are indeed experts. If the young masters don't dislike it, how about letting my daughter play a song for you?"

Li Xun and others naturally applauded.Li Xun looked at her and said with a smile, "Our Mr. Yan is not in a good mood today. If the girl plays well, Mr. Yan will be happy, and there will be a lot of rewards!"

Gong Ling smiled and asked Xiao Er to bring her guqin.She is not only good at harp, but also has good attainments in musical instruments such as qin and zither, which is why she can become the everlasting pillar of the Qianzhan Pavilion.The harp is a foreign musical instrument, and she usually plays the guqin when entertaining guests.

Xiao Er quickly fetched the guqin she used frequently, and after a while, the melodious sound of the qin sounded.

Song Qinghuan took off the wine cup attached to the wall, and moved her ears away from the wall.

Listening to the conversation of those few people just now, it seems that Song Yan didn't have any special reason to come to Qianzhan Pavilion today, it was purely drawn by Li Xun and the others for entertainment.

I heard that he messed up a matter that the father entrusted to Song Yan recently, and the father was very dissatisfied with him. Is it because of this reason that Song Yan is in a bad mood?

If so, there is no need for her to continue listening.

Thinking that Shen Xing was still waiting outside, he didn't wait too long, called the waiter to settle the bill and walked out of Qianzhan Pavilion.Behind him, the Qianzhan Pavilion was still bustling with people, pushing cups and exchanging cups, which was a scene of prosperity and prosperity.

*
Soon came the day of the spring hunt.

When Emperor Yu first came to the throne, if there were no special circumstances, every spring he would lead his officials and people from the harem to Shanglin Garden on the outskirts of the city for spring hunting.

Shanglin Garden is a royal palace garden with a large area a hundred miles away from the suburbs of Jian'an City. There are detached palaces to cool off the summer heat and various pavilions for recreation.Of course, the largest area is the royal paddock located in the northwest corner of Shanglin Garden. Hundreds of beasts are raised in the paddock, which can accommodate thousands of riders.

Later, the Yu Empire was busy with affairs, and gradually canceled the tradition of hunting in the Spring and Autumn Period.Unexpectedly, this year, because of drafting for the princes, the spring hunting that had been suspended for many years would start again.

Although everyone knows that this spring hunt is more about allowing the three princes to have an in-depth understanding of the noble ladies of each family before the draft ceremony, but on the surface it is still the same as usual, please The young ladies and sons of various families and rich families will go together, and the concubines who are favored in the harem will all go together.

The spring hunt takes three days in total.The first day is for everyone to rest and recuperate, and a bonfire dinner will be held in the evening.The spring hunting really started on the second day. It lasted for a whole day. At dusk, the individual prey was counted, and the top three in the men's and women's groups were selected.After lunch on the third day, we headed back to the palace.

On this day, before dawn, a mighty carriage of carriages began to leave the city.The one walking in front of the motorcade was naturally the chariot of the empress, followed by concubine Ning Guifei and other favored concubines, followed by the three princes and three emperor concubines.After that came the chariots of the great families.

The empress and the three princes were traveling together, which was of great importance, so they were accompanied by Qi Menqi for personal protection along the way, and they walked towards Shanglin Garden on the outskirts of the city without any haste.

Song Qinghuan was sitting in the carriage, Liu Yue and Shen Xing were accompanying him, and outside the carriage was Xuan Ying who was disguised as a servant of Yaohua Palace and accompanied the carriage.

After walking for more than an hour, the carriage team slowly stopped.

Shanglinyuan has arrived.

Although the Shanglin Garden is magnificent, the royal enclosure occupies most of the land after all, and other palace buildings are not comparable to the imperial palace.The residence where Song Qinghuan stayed was a courtyard named Jianjia. Although it was not as good as Yaohua Palace, it was exquisitely and elegantly furnished.

When Song Qinghuan brought Liuyue and Shen Xing into Jianjia Courtyard, there were already two court ladies and a servant from Shanglin Court waiting in the courtyard. Seeing her coming in, she hurriedly went up to salute her.

Song Qinghuan asked the names of the three of them one by one, and asked them to go down and wait for a while, and then asked Liu Yue to take Xuanying to settle down in the side room, and Fang took Shen Xing into the room to settle down.

In her memory, she had been to Shanglinyuan twice.

But at that time, she was not favored, and the courtyard where she stayed was far from Emperor Yu's palace.But the Jianjia Courtyard where she lived this time, she had already seen the terrain clearly on the way here just now, and it was very close to the Yichun Palace where Emperor Yu stayed.

Sure enough, today is different from the past.

Song Qinghuan didn't know what was going on in her heart, she sat on the soft couch by the window, watching Shen Xing take out her luggage and put them away one by one.Looking up at the window, seeing that it was still early, after thinking about it, he decided to go see Brother Wuhuang.

After Liu Yue and Shen Xing settled down, Song Qinghuan took a rest in the room, and took the two of them to the Mili courtyard where the Fifth Prince stayed.For fear that the fifth prince would find out that Xuan Ying was strange, he didn't take him with him and left him in the Jianjia Courtyard.

Walk all the way to the millet hospital in a leisurely manner.The journey was tiring, and everyone was still resting in their rooms. Except for the maids and servants who passed by in a hurry, they didn't meet many people on the road.

The gate of Mi Li's courtyard was ajar, but not closed.

Song Qinghuan stepped forward and reached out to push the courtyard door open.

A palace maid in Tsing Yi who was instructing the servants to move the luggage in the courtyard followed her reputation. Seeing that it was Song Qinghuan, her brows and eyes lit up with joy, and she quickly stepped forward and saluted her, "I have seen His Highness the Seventh Prince."

The one who saluted was Caiwei, the personal maid beside the fifth prince.

"Is Brother Wu Huang there?" Song Qinghuan asked.

Caiwei nodded, and personally led Song Qinghuan to walk in, "Your Highness is in the room, please, Your Highness Seventh."

"Your Highness, His Highness the Seventh Prince has come to see you." After entering the room, Cai Wei informed Song Xuan who was in the study.

Song Xuan heard the reputation, saw that it was Song Qinghuan, her eyes lit up, she hurried out, looked at Song Qinghuan and said happily, "Huan'er, why are you here?"

After Caiwei saluted and retreated, Song Qinghuan asked Shen Xingliuyue to wait outside the door, and went into the study together with Song Xuan.

The two sat down in the study, and Song Xuan looked at Song Qinghuan with concern, "After sitting in the carriage for so long, why doesn't Huan'er rest in the room?"

Song Qing laughed happily, "I slept well yesterday, and I wasn't tired at all, so I wanted to come over to see Brother Wuhuang, but did you disturb Brother Wuhuang to rest?"

Song Xuan shook her head, "I slept well yesterday, so I'm not sleepy now."

"What was Brother Wuhuang doing just now?" Song Qinghuan asked curiously.

"I'm sorting out the books I brought over." Song Xuan picked up the books on the side and shook them in front of Song Qinghuan.

Song Qinghuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Brother Wuhuang, we stayed in Shanglin Garden for three days, and you brought several books to read? If your father finds out, you will be called a bookworm again."

Song Xuan has listened to Song Qinghuan's persuasion these days, and is no longer as lofty as before, and occasionally behaves in front of Emperor Yu, which gradually changes Emperor Yu's view of him.It's just that before Emperor Yu heard that Song Xuan often read at night with the lamp on, he half-jokingly and half-seriously gave him the title of a bookworm, saying that although reading is good, you should not rely on books for everything, and practice prevails.

Song Qinghuan's "bookworm" joke came from this.

She knew that Song Xuan was not only not interested in the throne, but also lacked interest in riding and archery. Every time she came to Shanglin Garden, she was just as a foil, and this time was no exception.

But not only how to say it, he is also the protagonist in this spring hunt, how can he be so indifferent?

Song Xuan shrugged indifferently, looked at Song Qinghuan with a smile and said, "Huan'er, it's not like you don't know that I've never been interested in hunting, so I naturally want to find something to entertain myself."

Song Qinghuan glared at him, "Brother Wuhuang, why did you really come to the spring hunt this time? It's clearly for you to see that the prince and concubine are here, so you don't take it to heart at all?!"

Seeing her eyebrows raised slightly, Song Xuan hurriedly put down the book in her hand, "Huan'er, don't be angry, I naturally know that this spring hunt is actually a preparation for the draft ceremony."

"Then you still don't care?" Song Qinghuan was anxious and annoyed.Brother Wuhuang is good at everything, but his temperament is too indifferent, almost the same as her in the previous life, and she doesn't like to fight for everything.

Song Xuan smiled wryly, with helplessness in his eyes, "Huan'er, do you really think that I can decide who is my concubine?"

Song Qinghuan was silent for a moment.

Song Xuan's words were not wrong.Among the three adult princes now, he is the one with the lowest status, and when it's his turn to choose the imperial concubine, the crown prince and the eldest prince must pick the rest.Even if he chooses the remaining candidates, he doesn't have any right to choose, and the final decision is still in the hands of Emperor Yu.

Because of this, Song Xuan felt that since he knew the result could not be changed, why bother to plan it?
Song Qinghuan could understand Song Xuan's thoughts, but disagreed.

Man will conquer nature, everything has not yet begun, how can we have such negative thoughts?

She stared at Song Xuan with a serious expression, and paused every word, "Brother Wuhuang, everything has not started yet, and no one knows what will happen in the spring hunting, how can you give up so easily?" She paused, her eyes became brighter Seriously, "Before I go to Chen Kingdom, Brother Wuhuang thinks I can get the medicine back for my father?"

Song Xuan nodded, then shook his head suddenly.

He nodded because that person was Song Qinghuan. Although Song Qinghuan had been keeping a low profile for the past few years, he knew that her abilities were definitely not limited to that small world.

He shook his head because he suddenly understood that Song Qinghuan's purpose of saying this was to motivate himself and to cooperate, so he changed it to shaking his head.

Indeed, if it was just an ordinary emperor raised in a deep boudoir, it would be impossible for her to travel thousands of miles to Chen Country and get the medicine back unscathed.

Seeing Song Xuan's actions, Song Qinghuan, who was originally a bit annoyed, was suddenly amused by him. He let out a "puchi" laugh, and called out helplessly, "Brother Wuhuang..."

Song Xuan smiled embarrassedly, with a serious expression, "I understand what Huan'er means."

Song Qinghuan put back her smile, nodded and said, "I have always believed that man can conquer heaven! Now that Emperor Father's impression of me has completely changed, I think... I should be able to say a few words about your choice of concubine. So I don't want Brother Five to give up from the very beginning."

Song Xuan sighed heavily, and after a long time, looked up at Song Qinghuan, "Huan'er, I understand all your good intentions."

"Then Brother Wuhuang promised me not to give up at the beginning?" Song Qinghuan asked.

Song Xuan said "hmm", "Huan'er is right, man will conquer nature, I shouldn't give up at the beginning. What's more, I still have you to help me, right?"

Only then did Song Qinghuan smile, "Brother Wuhuang thinks so, I feel relieved."

At this moment, Caiwei served tea and came in.

Song Qinghuan picked up the teacup and took a sip, thought for a while, and continued, "Brother Wuhuang should have understood the current situation, right?"

Before coming to Spring Hunt a few days ago, she had mentioned to him some information about the noble daughters of the aristocratic family that she knew, but she didn't know how much Song Xuan had listened to, so she asked him again this time.

Song Xuan responded.Although he really didn't care about Chun Lie before, he still listened to what Song Qinghuan said.

"The Wei family sent Wei Qianyu, the first daughter of the side branch, to Beijing, along with Wei Pingting, a concubine who is a good daughter in the second room. The purpose of these two Wei girls is naturally to be the crown princess." Song Xuan said while Organize the thoughts in your head.

Song Qinghuan let out a "hmm" and his expression eased slightly.

It seems that Brother Wuhuang still remembers what she said, which made her slightly relieved.

"There is another person who is eyeing the crown princess, the princess Changning who also entered Beijing a few days ago. But the status of the princess Changning is a bit special, and the emperor may not be interested in her becoming the crown princess, but the crown prince Liangdi is a possibility. These two are strong contenders for the crown princess."

Song Qing smiled happily, showing a gratified expression, "I thought that what I said, brother five emperors would go in the left ear and out the right ear."

Song Xuan showed a look of "how dare you", and continued, "As for the eldest prince, the person who needs attention is Concubine Ning's niece, Ning Shu, daughter of General Ning."

After saying this, Song Xuan blinked at Song Qinghuan, "Huan'er, am I right?"

Song Qinghuan let out a long sigh of relief, cast a sharp look at him and said, "It seems that what I babbled in Brother Wuhuang's ear a few days ago is not useless."

Song Xuan just pursed his lips and smiled.

Song Qinghuan thought for a while, and smiled a little, "I have seen these three people before, and they are not good people. Fortunately, their goal is not Brother Wuhuang, otherwise the family will be in trouble. Marrying a wife Xian, if you want me to say, family background is not the most important thing for someone who can be my fifth emperor's wife, what's important is good looks and good character."

Speaking of this, he added with a smile, "Of course, the most important thing is that Brother Wuhuang likes it."

Song Xuan chuckled, "Huan'er is more anxious about my marriage than I am."

"That's not right!" Song Qinghuan glanced at him, "Brother Huang must understand my good intentions and cooperate well."

"Naturally." Song Xuan hurriedly agreed.

Song Qinghuan went on to say, "So our first task tonight and tomorrow is to see if there are any outstanding girls who can catch the eyes of Brother Wuhuang among the noble ladies who come to Shanglinyuan. If Brother Wuhuang likes you Don't be shy, just tell me boldly, I will definitely find a way to match you two." After speaking, there was a smile on his face.

Song Xuan also smiled, her eyes full of doting, "Don't worry, Huan'er, I will definitely not let down your good intentions!"

Song Qinghuan thought about it, raised his eyebrows at Song Xuan and said, "Since that's the case, don't lie in the room and read some books, Brother Wuhuang, just go out with me, maybe there will be some love affairs. "

Song Xuan was dumbfounded by the excitement in her eyebrows and eyes, but she was too embarrassed to brush off her kindness, so she could only purse her lips in response, "Okay, okay, everything is under Huan'er's arrangement."

Song Qinghuan smiled triumphantly, took a look at Song Xuan and said, "Brother Wuhuang's suit is very good, there is no need to change it, let's go straight away."

As he said that, he dragged Song Xuan out of the millet hospital.

Shanglin Garden is built on the mountain, with pools and lakes all over it, with cool breeze and pleasant climate.

Song Qinghuan and Song Xuan walked in Shanglin Garden, feeling the scenery of the lake and mountains, and felt a lot more relaxed for a while, and the nervousness of the past few days was also swept away.

At this time, from a distance, I saw someone walking towards me in front of me.

Song Qinghuan squinted his eyes for a look, and his face suddenly sank.

Seeing that there was something wrong with her complexion, Song Xuan also stopped smiling and followed her gaze.After a few glances, he didn't see why, so he had to turn his gaze back to Song Qinghuan.

"Huan'er, who are those people?"

Song Qinghuan's eyes darkened, "Ning Shu and Ning Xiao."

The name Ning Shu had appeared in Song Xuan's ears too many times in the past few days, so he immediately realized who Ning Xiao was.

"Huan'er knows them?" Seeing Song Qinghuan's strange expression, Song Xuan couldn't help asking.

That day, Song Qinghuan didn't tell Song Xuan about Ning Shu's horse riding in the downtown area, so Song Xuan didn't know about the relationship between the two of them.

Song Qinghuan sneered, with some disdain in his voice, "We met once."

Obviously hearing Song Qinghuan's dislike for Ning Shu, Song Xuan asked, "Do you want to avoid them?"

"No need." Song Qinghuan answered firmly.

In terms of status, she was above them, and there was no reason to avoid them on purpose.If they are sensible, they should perform well in front of themselves today.

When he got closer, Ning Xiao also saw Song Qinghuan. He was startled for a moment, and then a strange expression appeared.

Only then did Song Qinghuan see clearly that there was a little maid next to them, who seemed to be leading them where to go.

Her expression didn't change, she still walked forward with Song Xuan.

Soon, Ning Xiao and Ning Shu walked up to them and stopped.

"I've seen His Highness the Seventh Prince." Ning Xiao saluted Song Qinghuan respectfully, then tugged at the corner of Ning Shu's clothes, signaling her to salute quickly.Ning Shu reluctantly gave Song Qing a happy blessing.

The little maid blessed the two of them, and retreated a few steps knowingly.

Song Qinghuan's eyes were cold, and they flashed across Ning Shu's face, and soon fell on Ning Xiao.

"Mr. Ning, Miss Ning, don't come here without a problem." The word "Don't come without a problem" was bitten hard, which made Ning Xiao's heart tremble slightly.

After he went back that day, he specially sent someone to check, and it was confirmed that the girl in white that he and Ning Shu met on the street was indeed Song Qinghuan, the Empress of Wuyang.

In this way, he couldn't help feeling a little panicked.

Because the person sent to investigate also told him that Empress Wuyang is quite favored now and is a celebrity in front of Emperor Yu.He was worried that if Empress Wuyang had any opinion on Ning Shu because of the incident last time, would she do anything about the draft?That's why I've been apprehensive.

Mrs. Ning saw that his emotions were wrong, and after questioning, she found out what happened on the street that day.

When entering Jian'an that day, Ning Shu felt that the carriage was running slowly, so she insisted on riding the horse first.Madam Ning was afraid that Ning Shu would cause some trouble, so she sent Ning Xiao to accompany her, but she did not expect such troubles to arise.But since the matter has already happened, there is no way to remedy it, so I can only remind the two of them to be careful in the future.

Aunt Cai just sent someone to invite him and Ning Shu to have a talk in the palace, but she didn't expect to meet Empress Wuyang on the way!
Hearing Song Qinghuan's words, he pulled out a smile, "Your Highness, we meet again. I offended my younger sister last time, please forgive me."

Song Qinghuan cast a sideways glance at Ning Shu, but said nothing.

It was Ning Shu who caused the trouble. She didn't know how to repent, and she always wanted Ning Xiao to stand up for her?
Ning Xiao is also an individual. Seeing this, she gave Ning Shu a hard look. Ning Shu had no choice but to salute Song Qinghuan hastily, "Ning Shu was reckless. She offended His Highness last time. Please forgive me."

Song Qinghuan hadn't answered yet, but Song Xuan who was at the side said coldly, "Since it's an apology, it must appear to be an apology. If it's so dishonest, it doesn't matter if it's an apology!"

He already recognized that the two people in front of him were Ning Shu and Ning Xiao whom Song Qinghuan had mentioned to him many times. Although he didn't know exactly what happened between the three of them, looking at Song Qinghuan's expression, he knew that it must not be a pleasant one. memory.

In front of outsiders, Song Xuan has always been protective of her weaknesses, so she coldly spoke out for Song Qinghuan.

Ning Xiao was slightly stunned, and then remembered that there was another person beside Song Qinghuan, and cast his eyes suspiciously on Song Xuan.Seeing that he is handsome and handsome, his temperament is also good, there is a sense of familiarity between his eyebrows and eyes, and he is getting close to Empress Wuyang. After thinking about it carefully, he understands this man who is cheering for Song Qing who is it.

Hastily bowed to him, "Ning Xiao has eyes but doesn't know Mount Tai, and even doesn't know His Highness Fifth, please His Highness to make amends."

Song Xuan said "um", "Those who don't know are innocent. It's normal for you not to know this prince, and this prince doesn't blame you. But..." He changed the subject, and his sharp eyes fell on Ning Shu's dazed face. "Lingmei's performance is really disappointing! Is this how the girls of the Ning family teach?!"

Ning Xiao was startled, he didn't expect Song Xuan to protect Song Qinghuan so much.

This time I offended the two nobles, what should I do?She had no choice but to wink at Ning Shu.

No, Ning Shu seemed to be in a daze, her eyes fixed on Song Xuan's face.

Being stared at by Ning Shu so directly, Song Xuan felt a little unhappy immediately, his eyes turned cold, and he said again, "Miss Ning looks at me like this, but is there something on my prince's face? "

Ning Shu suddenly came back to her senses, her face flushed with shame, she lowered her head and bowed to Song Xuan, "Ning Shu has seen His Highness Fifth."

Song Xuan said "Yes", "Ms. Ning's courtesy is very good, but..." He paused, and his tone suddenly became serious, "The etiquette of apologizing to my Seventh Sister just now is really a bit perfunctory."

Seeing that Song Xuan made up his mind to vent his anger on Song Qinghuan's behalf, Ning Xiao's eyes turned, and he hurriedly pulled Ning Shu along, and saluted Song Qinghuan respectfully, with a sincere tone, "Sister She is rude, before What an offense, I hope His Highness will have enough to forgive Sister Sister's unintentional mistake this time."

Ning Shu had no choice but to hide her dissatisfaction, and apologized to Song Qinghuan politely.

Song Qinghuan glanced at them lazily, then looked at Song Xuan, "What do you think, Brother Wuhuang?"

"Let's be so-so." Song Xuan frowned slightly, and accepted it as soon as it was good.

Song Qinghuan took a look at Ning Xiao, and asked, "Where are Mr. Ning and Miss Ning going?"

"Returning to Your Highness, Ning and his sister were summoned by Ning Guiren and are heading to Ning Guiren's palace." After the incident last time, Ning Xiao knew that Song Qinghuan was not as cowardly and incompetent as the rumors, and he did not dare to hide it now. Ten to inform.

Song Qinghuan curled her lips.

It's a little better.

It's just that Ning Guiren summoned them at this time, but he didn't avoid suspicion.

Now that Brother Wu Huang had spoken out for her, she had nothing more to say to the two of them. She nodded and said, "In that case, Mr. Ning and Miss Ning should go quickly, and don't make Mrs. Ning wait too long."

Ning Xiao said yes, and bowed his hands politely and stepped aside, "Please, Your Highness Seventh and Fifth Highness."

Song Qinghuan did not refuse, glanced at Song Xuan, and passed him and Ning Shu.Because she came to Shanglin Garden today, she wore a lotus root pink palace dress with wide sleeves and a skirt as graceful as clouds.When passing by Ning Xiao's side, the cuff accidentally brushed the back of his hand hanging beside him, a silky feeling flowed into Ning Xiao's heart, as his thoughts wandered, a faint fragrance hit his nose.

Ning Xiao raised his head, watching Song Qinghuan and Song Xuan gradually walk away, feeling a sense of loss in his heart.

He sighed slightly, looked away at Ning Shu, and was just about to tell her to go to Ning Guiren's place quickly, but saw her eyes rippling, her cheeks flushed, and her face glowing with a strange brilliance.

Seeing Ning Xiao looking over, Ning Shu also looked at him with an excited smile, her voice was undisguised, "Brother, I don't want to marry my cousin!"

Ning Xiao was taken aback, glanced at the court lady waiting not far away, lowered his voice and scolded, "Shu'er, what nonsense are you talking about?!"

But she didn't want to, Ning Shu glanced at him, her eyes filled with persistence, "Brother, I want to be the Fifth Prince's Concubine!"
