Do you want to use it?
In the morning and evening, she leaned against the carriage window to appreciate the moonlight. Wei Chi Qinglian had originally wanted to ride with her, but after learning that Xiao Bing was riding a horse, she gave up the idea and insisted on following Xiao Bing on horseback.
In the morning and evening, he was too lazy to deal with her, so he handed her over to Xiao Bing and Wei Chi Qingyan for care. It's said that way, but it's clear that Wei Chi Qingyan is thinking of helping his sister wholeheartedly, keeping a distance from Xiao Bing and following behind them. Wei Chi Qinglian, on the other hand, was thinking of ways to follow Xiao Bing closely.
As for horsemanship, Wei Chi Qinglian is actually not bad, otherwise how could she keep up with Xiao Bing's fast and slow rhythm, and even watching her from morning to night feels pitiful.
However, Xiao Bing had never been one to coddle or spoil her, and no matter how hard Wei Chi Qinglian tried to crash into the wall, she couldn't stop her.
"Princess, why don't you let the eldest prince ride with you?" As Gong Chen Xi had refused all the other attendants' requests to follow her in the same carriage, unexpectedly choosing him instead, Hua Zi Yan was very curious.
"Not for any reason, just because you're more interesting!"
Is he interesting?
Huāzi stared at her with a suspicious look, wondering if she was just teasing him as he had teased her. "Alright, it's an honor for me to have piqued the princess's interest, but doesn't the princess worry that Wei Qinglian will snatch away your Fourth Prince?"
"Could it be that you haven't heard of a saying, 'A person who can be robbed by others is not one's own'?"
"Hua Zi was taken aback, 'I've really never heard of this before!'"
In the morning and evening, he can't be bothered to dress up, this man must have a purpose.
However, she was somewhat reluctant to drive him away. Anyway, there were people arranged by others around her who were keeping an eye on her, so what's the difference with one more unknown person? Perhaps, stirring up the lake would make it even murkier and allow her to do whatever she wanted in peace.
"Princess, how about I tell you a story?"
"Alright!"
The soft voice of Huāzi was enchanting, making people relax, listening to it in the morning and evening would make one yawn, finally closing their tired eyes.
Hua Zi Xuan stared at her peaceful sleeping face and was stunned. She didn't worry that he was an assassin!
He let out a sigh, helped her onto the bed, pulled up the thin quilt to cover her, and his fingers inadvertently brushed against her skin, soft and delicate, with a warm and gentle sensation spreading into his heart.
Suddenly, he withdrew his hand and smiled bitterly!
What's wrong with him? Is he still hesitating for her sake?
He firmed up his conviction, reached into his bosom and pulled out a small bottle. As he opened the lid, a faint fragrance wafted out, which was also inhaled by Huazhi as he breathed evenly morning and evening. After a moment, Huazhi put away the small bottle and let out a light sigh.
How good it would be if she were not Princess Chiyang?
Unfortunately, there is no "if" in this world.
……
The next day, I woke up in the morning with a drowsy feeling, rubbed my eyes and opened the car curtain to find that it was already sunny.
She was slightly stunned in her heart, how long had she slept?
She opened her mouth with a clear voice: "Stop the car!"
The cavalry immediately came to a halt, and Zhuge Jingze rode up on horseback, "Your Highness?"
"Jing Ze, is there a stream nearby?"
"Not far ahead there is a small stream, if the princess wants to wash up we have water..."
"Uh-huh, first let someone bring me some water to wash up with, then hurry to the front stream, I want to take a bath."
"Alright, there's a forest ahead, it's too hot under the sun, let everyone take a break."
The team stopped in the woods, and Chen Xi took Zhuge Jingze to a small stream to bathe.
As soon as she entered the water, she felt a refreshing coolness from head to toe. The small stream in the woods was indeed wonderful. Her ten fingers moved back and forth in the water without stopping. Suddenly, her body tensed up, and the tip of her ring finger turned black - a sign of poisoning!
Huang Pu Jing Hao didn't just cure her of the poison from the water smoke? How could she be poisoned again?!
She sighed in her heart, and played with the creek water, slowly washing away the black color from her fingertips. After the black color on her fingertips faded away, she saw some small fish swimming on the surface of the creek water...
This Princess Chiyang's identity is really enviable, poisoning one after another!
Perhaps it was her heavy sigh that moved his heart, Zhuge Jingze asked with his back to her: "Princess, do you have any worries?"
"Jing Ze, come here!"
Zhuge Jingze walked forward as he was told, with some movement in his heart. The princess had been distant from them for a long time, and none of the husbands had truly gotten close to the princess in these days.
He had a complex and excited feeling about this. In that instant, he had an expectation, hoping that Princess Chiyang wanted to get close to him...
"Jing Ze, look, these fish are dead!"
What!
Zhuge Jingze was pulled back to reality by her cold voice, and when he lowered his head to take a look, he indeed saw some small fish floating on the water's surface. "Princess, what's going on?"
She gazed at him quietly in the morning and evening, saying slowly: "Before Junlian left, he once said that you are the most sincere one among all the husbands who serve this princess. Can I believe what he said?"
Zhuge's calm face showed a crack, and he looked at her with some excitement: "Does the princess believe in Jingze's heart?"
"I've never heard your inner voice, how can I talk about trust or distrust?"
"Princess..." Zhuge Jingze took a deep breath, "Princess, Jingze has always had feelings for you, it's just that the princess never had any for Jingze!"
"Why?"
Zhuge Jingze felt as if he had started another round of gambling, and smiled bitterly: "Princess, don't you remember anything about the time we met in the palace when you were nine years old?"
Nine years old? Morning and evening foolish eyes, please, even if I were alive at that time, I wouldn't necessarily remember things from my childhood!
What's wrong with this man?
Judging from her expression, Zhuge Jingze got the answer and said gloomily: "The princess really doesn't remember, no wonder, how could the princess remember such a trivial matter?"
"You're crazy! Didn't I tell you a while ago that I forgot about past things?!"
Zhuge Jingze was stunned, right, how could he have forgotten this matter? He awkwardly lowered his head. Even if the amnesiac princess didn't remember, it would be better than forgetting due to being too careless.
"I want to tell you something, Junlian has already gone on an errand, and the Third Master who is now by your side is just a substitute we found."
Her calm words were like a big stone thrown into the center of the lake, rippling out in circles. Zhuge Jingze looked at her incredulously, and it took him half a moment to squeeze out a sentence: "Princess... why did you suddenly tell me this?"
"Because I've thought it over and over, and only you and that letter are left by my side, so I'll take a gamble and see whether you're good to me or to Her Majesty the Queen."
"Princess—"
Zhuge Jingze is a clever person and understands how important that sentence just now is. Is this the signal for Gongyuan to choose him?
"Hey, stop spacing out and tell me, who has the best chance of poisoning me in the past two days?"
Zhuge Jingze thought for a moment and said seriously: "Princess, I think the most suspicious is Hua Zi Xuan. General Huangfu would never poison you no matter what. I heard my mother say that back then, Huangfu Jinghao made an oath in front of all the officials: This life will definitely protect you completely, and live or die with the princess."
What? There's still this matter?
"So he won't take the princess's life." The implication being that things other than her life might be sought after.
Chen Xi felt very helpless about this, and Huang Fu Jing Hao was indeed a tragic minister. He was forced to make such an oath, no wonder he didn't have any affection for Ben Zun.
