Yu'er glared at Tianqi, but the fact that he could come and go freely in Prince Xuan's Mansion showed that he had a good relationship with the prince. After thinking about it, she went to the door again and said inside: "Princess, Mr. Hua said that he doesn't want to find the prince."
Talk and wait here."
Tong Xiaoye covered his ears with the pillow next to him, raised his voice a little, and said angrily: "Okay, let him wait, don't give him any tea, it will cost him!"
This voice also fell on Tianqi's ears. He smiled cheerfully and said to a man who walked in from outside: "She is really stubborn and interesting."
Xuan Jinmo looked at Tianqi expressionlessly and said, "Really? If it were me, I would just let you stand and wait. Being able to let you sit down is already considered a kindness."
Tianqi raised his eyebrows and said curiously: "So, you are ruthless and Tongnuo is stubborn and interesting. By the way, why do you have time to come over? Didn't you ask me to take care of Tongnuo?"
"Jinyan is here." Xuan Jinmo smiled slightly and said, "She said that Tong Huaan had a gift for her to deliver to Xiaoye, so I obliged and came over to take a look."
"Haha." Tian Qi said cheerfully, "Excuse me, Xuan Jinmo, please come and invite me personally."
Yu'er went to wake up Tong Xiaoye again. Tong Xiaoye was drowsily asleep, so she reluctantly got up, washed herself, changed clothes, and left the room.
Her face was still a little pale, her hair was pulled loosely, and her eyes were a little confused.
"It still looks good with it loose." Xuan Jinmo stretched out his hand to take off the hosta holding his hair. The black hair spread all over his shoulders in an instant. It had a clear and light fragrance and was longer than the waist. It was smooth and weak in his hand.
"You haven't woken up yet, have you?" Tianqi said curiously, "How can I sleep so soundly at night when I sleep so soundly at this time?"
Tong Xiaoye said impatiently: "I can sleep if I can, but I can chat with you if I can't!"
Tianqi subconsciously said: "I want to rest tonight and not chat."
"Yes, so I'm here to chat with you tonight!" Tong Xiaoye said simply, "Don't worry, I brought my own tea. Anyway, Tianyin Pavilion is always hospitable, and there are silk and bamboo to smell."
Tian Qi was startled when he saw Xuan Jinmo holding Tong Xiaoye's long hair with one hand and looking at him with a half-smile, and then he realized that Tong Xiaoye was teasing him.
"Let's go." Xuan Jin silently let go of Tong Xiaoye's long hair and took the lead.
Tong Xiaoye followed him slowly, Tianqi kindly stayed by his side.
Xuan Jinyan gained weight and looked better, but her eyes were a little melancholy. When she saw Tong Xiaoye, she smiled and said, "Xiaoye, you are here. This is the gift your brother asked me to bring to you."
It is an exquisite box with an exquisite little lock on it. It is not big, but very cute, but it feels a little heavy in the hand.
"This is what your brother did with his own hands." Xuan Jinyan said with a smile, "Your brother once fought against a foreign tribe and got a beautiful stone from a captured man, so he carved such a piece of jewelry himself in his spare time.
There is a letter for you in the box."
Tong Xiaoye knew that her brother had a little hobby when he was young, that is, he liked to carve some interesting gadgets out of stone or wood. However, although the lock was small, it was extremely delicate, and it was still locked. "Hey, this is locked.
.”
"Yes." Xuan Jinyan was also a little confused and said softly, "I asked when I came here and your brother said that it can be opened without a key, but if it is opened by force, the jewelry box will damage itself. I kept holding it carefully on the way.
I'm afraid I might accidentally break the lock, it's too delicate."
Tong Xiaoye looked at Xuan Jinyan who spoke slowly. She was different from her before. She seemed to have something on her mind that she couldn't express. She also seemed to be enveloped in melancholy too deeply, which made Tong Xiaoye feel inexplicably sad.
She subconsciously glanced at Ah Hui, who lowered her head and couldn't see her expression clearly.
She caressed the delicate little lock unconsciously. Suddenly, her fingertips hurt. She oomphed softly and heard a slight click. The delicate little lock actually opened!
Looking at the blood on her fingertips, a tiny drop, she was a little surprised. It turned out that the key to opening the jewelry box was her blood?! She opened the jewelry box hesitantly. If so, there must be something inside the jewelry box that her brother does not want outsiders to have.
Saw something.
There was only a small, beautifully carved pendant, a delicate leaf, and an excellent folded letter.
She felt that someone was looking at her, her eyes were full of contemplation, and she subconsciously looked where she came from. It was Xuan Jinmo, who was looking at the box in her hand calmly and indifferently.
Tong Xiaoye hesitated and put the jewelry box on the box. Before she figured out the contents of the letter inside the jewelry box, she didn't want to talk to Xuan Jinmo about it. Her brother must have taken such pains to not want anyone to see it except her.
this letter.
"He has become smarter." Xuan Jinmo said indifferently.
Tong Xiaoye hesitated and said nothing.
Everyone sat down to eat, Mingyue also came to the table and sat between Xuan Jinmo and Xuan Jinyan, while Tong Xiaoye sat between Xuan Jinmo and Tianqi, which made her feel like she wanted to smile bitterly.
What is this? What is the difference between eating at the same table as one's husband's concubine and being called sister? I feel inexplicably frustrated and depressed, but I want to escape with my chopsticks.
"Come. Eat more." Xuan Jinmo said to Xuan Jinyan and Mingyue, "We are both mothers soon. We must eat more so that the children in our belly can grow up healthily."
Mingyue smiled shyly, with a happy face, and did not notice the slight sadness and confusion on Xuan Jinyan's face. Her slender fingers unconsciously clenched the chopsticks, and there were faint tears flashing in her eyes, but she couldn't see clearly.
Xuan Jinmo paused for a moment, put a chopstick of food in front of Xuan Jinyan, and said gently: "Jinyan, don't worry, my brother is here. No matter what happens, he will solve it."
Xuan Jinyan smiled reluctantly, eating the food in front of her tastelessly, and glanced at Tong Xiaoye secretly, with a trace of fear flashing in her eyes.
Tong Xiaoye felt Xuan Jinyan's eyes and looked up. Xuan Jinyan hurriedly lowered her eyes and only stared at the food in front of her. She was a little puzzled, but she didn't ask.
The meal ended in a somewhat awkward atmosphere. Fortunately, Tianqi kept making jokes in the middle, so there was no silence.
Everyone put down their bowls and chopsticks, and Xuan Jinmo ordered people to take Xuan Jinyan and Mingyue down to have a rest respectively. Tong Xiaoye did not stay any longer and left with Yu'er at the same time, leaving Xuan Jinmo and Tianqi alone.
"You can go too." Xuan Jinmo glanced at Tianqi and said calmly, "Thank you for always mediating. I thank you on Jinyan's behalf."
Tianqi smiled bitterly and said: "Xuan Jinmo, do you really plan to take the blame? What if Tong Huaan realizes and misunderstands that you plan to replace his and Xuan Jinyan's so-called child with the son you have with Mingyue? I guess,
There must be something fishy about the letter in the jewelry box given to the girl!"
