A low, gentle sound, like the sound of the wind, drifted from the lips of the pretty woman holding her chin and frowning in front of the screen window. Her expression was a little lonely, and her thoughts were floating——
In the gentle sunlight, her crystal jade face became more and more translucent, as if it was about to be melted by the sunlight, and her eyebrows began to become blurred little by little.
When Xiaolan came in with snacks, she saw exactly this scene, and her eyes froze immediately.
"Princess—" I blurted out in a worried mood, as if she was afraid that she would suddenly disappear.
The dazed woman in front of the window suddenly turned around, a smile gradually spreading on her face.
"What's wrong? Xiaolan, you screamed so loudly, it scared me." Yi Fangfei raised her head and glanced at the plate in her hand, taking it over. She picked a piece of osmanthus cake, put it in her mouth, and tasted it carefully.
Suddenly, his eyebrows raised, and the corner of his mouth curled up with a faint arc. "Who made this pastry today? It tastes good. Xiaolan, please stop standing and sit down and try it together. It tastes really good."
Here." Yi Fangfei couldn't help but pick up another piece and chewed it.
"Princess, are you really, really okay? You -" Xiaolan pursed her lips and hesitated. However, the undisguised worry in her eyes fell on Yi Fangfei's eyes.
Yi Fangfei curled her lips and patted her shoulder.
"Xiaolan, are you worried that I will fall out of favor?" This girl, do you think she doesn't know what she is thinking?
Xiaolan immediately stiffened up and put on a "how do you know" expression on her face.
Yi Fangfei patted the crumbs of the pastry in her hand and stood up with a smile. "Little girl, how can you hide your practice from your princess's eyes with such a little bit of concealment?"
"Now that the princess knows, she should cheer up and don't let the servants of Prince Rui's palace underestimate you, princess."
Ever since the emperor's decree came down, the princess has been sighing and staying in Prince Rui's Mansion all day without leaving the house. People outside are saying that the princess is about to become a concubine. Even the little people in Prince Rui's Mansion have seen it these days.
Her attitude was much different than before. They were all rushing to prepare gifts to please the new master - Bai Yudie, who repaid kindness with hatred.
Thinking of that hateful woman, Xiaolan really wanted to run and kick her.
Yi Fangfei looked at Xiaolan gnashing her teeth and laughed out loud. "Little girl, what are you doing? I'll hug you for your princess. Don't worry, what those people said, I haven't given up at all.
In my heart, the reason why I don’t go out during these days is because I am afraid of seeing other people’s pity looks and comforting tone. This makes me really unbearable, and I have to hypocritically deal with their kindness.
There is really no need to make yourself depressed, so your master simply hid at home and pretended to be sick to avoid those annoying people. But staying in this room all the time almost drove me crazy. Fortunately, I got through it.
Today, I don’t have to pretend anymore.”
"Princess, it turns out you did it on purpose?!" Xiaolan stared at Yi Fangfei in confusion. Are you sure her princess's head is not broken? She was sad for several days in vain and worried about her emotional problems every day.
, I always wanted to comfort her, but I was afraid of touching her wounds as soon as I opened my mouth, so I always stayed with her carefully, not daring to make the slightest mistake.
Unexpectedly, the princess did it on purpose!
Xiaolan muttered and looked at Yi Fangfei very dissatisfied.
Yi Fangfei shook her head helplessly. She rubbed Xiaolan's head as if she were comforting her own puppy. "Little girl, when you stay by my side from now on, you must have reaction abilities that are beyond ordinary people. Otherwise,
Just wait and torture your body and mind from time to time." "Princess--" Xiaolan stamped her feet angrily.
Yi Fangfei rolled her eyes at her and pointed to her ears: "Little girl, if I remember correctly, this princess is not deaf and has no symptoms of stress, so in the future, can you please speak softer? Can you?
Can't you be gentler? Also, come here, I have something very important and very important to ask you to do. You answer this Princess first, can you do it? I swear on my life and personality." At this point,
Yi Fangfei's tone paused and her face became serious.
Xiaolan was stunned for a moment, then suddenly looked determined and determined.
"Don't worry, Xiaolan will definitely do what the princess tells Xiaolan. Please rest assured, princess, whether it is poisoning the princess or finding someone to kill her, Xiaolan will handle it cleanly and will never implicate you, princess.
of."
What is this girl talking about? She looks like a strong man strangling his arms. Doesn’t she think that what she ordered her to do is to poison Bai Yudie?
Yi Fangfei looked at Xiaolan in shock, but Xiaolan straightened her back and waited calmly for Yi Fangfei's instructions. Yi Fangfei couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Xiaolan, let me tell you this is not the case."
"What's that?" The prince is going to have a wedding ceremony with that damn Bai Yudie tonight. If he doesn't do it earlier, it will be too late.
"I want you to help me and try to dress up the princess who is attending the banquet tonight into the most gorgeous but miserable image of a concubine." Since they want to see something, she is willing to cooperate, at least for her own benefit.
That is, in the future, we can avoid the scene of Yu Hexuan being frequently stepped on.
"Princess, why are you doing this?" Xiaolan felt many stars twinkling in front of her eyes.
"Of course it's because I'm lazy. The more reason is that I like to be clean. More importantly, I wish others would forget me as a princess." In this way, the risk will be greatly reduced when running in the future. Yi Fangfei
Xiaolan was smiling and thinking about what she wanted, but her eyesight went dark.
Boom——
She fainted.
"Hey, Xiaolan, get up, get up quickly, you still have to help me dress up, you can't pretend to be asleep, get up quickly, my aunt -"
Outside the door, a pale white gown was floating.
He stood here in a daze. He didn't know how long he stood there, and he didn't know how long he listened.
"Your Majesty, the princess has not been feeling well these past few days. She has been staying at Yuhexuan and has not come out."
"Your Majesty, the Princess has not even been to her favorite pharmacy these days."
"My lord, I heard from Xiaolan, the maid next to the princess, that she has been sighing and feeling restless these past few days."
"Your Majesty, this is the meal that was served to the princess and has been returned."
…
The housekeeper had been nagging him about every detail of her these days. For some reason, he felt a little excited when he heard that she was in a bad mood after hearing the news about his marriage.
He didn't know why, but he abandoned the monthly royal gathering in the palace and came to see her.
did not think of--
Under his sleeves, he slowly picked up his knuckles and pinched them into his fleshy palms.
After a long time, he gradually relaxed.
If he had known earlier, if he had known he would hear this, he shouldn't have come, really shouldn't have come -
A gust of wind blew by, and his figure disappeared in Yuhexuan.
※※※※※※
At night, Prince Rui's Mansion is immersed in a crimson world. Red silk and satin, red double happiness, red screen windows, red carpet——
Yifangfei waited until the wedding ceremony was over, and then, with Xiaolan's support, she belatedly appeared at the banquet.
Today she is wearing a luxurious princess robe, with three layers on the inside and three layers on the outside, with embroidered phoenix patterns, inlaid with gold threads, and embroidery on the collar and cuffs, which perfectly embellishes the splendor of the phoenix.
What she wore today was the hair that was pulled up into the clouds, hovering high on the top of her head, and tied up so that her forehead was smooth, and not a trace of black hair fell down. The eight-treasure phoenix hairpin was rubbed on one end, and although it was golden and dazzling, it was
It is inserted slantly on the temples and is so loose that it will fall off with just a small movement.
She walked on the red carpet and deliberately raised her chin with every step she took to make herself look graceful, luxurious and arrogant. But precisely because of her gorgeous appearance and exquisite makeup, she highlighted her inner age.
Her lonely mood.
Everyone in the seats couldn't help but show sympathetic eyes.
If Wu Fengying hadn't heard her words, he would have been shocked by the trace of loneliness on her eyebrows.
But a lie is still a lie——
The fingers were stiff under the red wedding robe, and on the back of the hand, a faint blue line was beating faintly.
Where did the gaze come from, so sharp and cold——
With a slight glance, Yi Fangfei met Wu Feng's cold and silent purple eyes. For a moment, she felt dizzy. But she still held on to Xiaolan's arm and walked over.
"My concubine congratulates the prince on his great happiness. I apologize for being so late." She bowed her knees gracefully, and her gorgeous water sleeves waved out a brilliant light like glass.
Ding--
The gold hairpin on her temples fell off when Yi Fangfei lowered her head to congratulate her.
Xiaolan was stunned.
Yi Fangfei blinked and winked. Xiaolan immediately picked up the gold hairpin that fell to the ground in a panic and inserted it back into Yi Fangfei's neat temples.
This scene fell in everyone's eyes. Some felt pity, some were happy, and some - pity. Pity?! Yi Fangfei suddenly turned her eyes, and out of the corner of her eye, she glanced at the man in white clothes on the side table.
Her face is peerless and her eyes are gentle.
There, the clear waves floated with a touch of sadness.
Is it him? Three Sages King Wu Fengxuan. Yi Fangfei was a little surprised. He shouldn't know her. How could he show such an expression? When she was confused, she felt a tight feeling on her wrist.
Wu Fengying's hand was holding hers. To outsiders, it looked like he was helping her to stand up. Only she knew that the force was too fierce.
She looked at his suddenly gloomy face in confusion. But when she stood up, his warm breath floated at the base of her ears.
Well--
Her eyes suddenly widened and she looked at him in disbelief.
How could he, how could he——
"Are you dressing up like this to please me?" A simple sentence was enough to drive her into a thousand-story ice cave.
She obviously planned well and would not make a mistake, but how could she-
Before she could say anything, Wu Fengying's hands were already around her waist and he was greeting all the guests at the table.
"The princess knows the general situation so well, how can I blame you? Please sit down with me." He directly pulled her to sit beside him and served her with a smile.
That's so gentle.
The surrounding atmosphere suddenly changed. The eyes of the guests who were optimistic about today's bride, Bai Yudie, changed obviously. They looked at her in a flattering and ridiculous manner again.
"Princess Rui, the prince is very happy today, and even before I send you the congratulatory gift, I have asked the princess to accept the East China Sea Night Pearl on my behalf."
When the brocade box was opened, the bright pearls dazzled everyone's eyes.
Yi Fangfei was surprised at first. She picked it up and played with it for a while, then quickly put it down.
"Princess Rui, I also have a congratulatory gift. Look at the jasper coral." As soon as the wooden box was opened, the transparent jasper coral appeared in everyone's sight.
Yi Fangfei held it up with both hands and touched it, then put it down again.
"Princess Rui, look at the congratulatory gift from me, the Purple Shan Jade Guanyin."
"Princess Rui, look at the congratulatory gift from me, the eight-step golden silkworm."
"Princess Rui, look at this minister-"
…
"Wu Fengying, you're going to be cruel this time!" With a snap, Yi Fangfei slapped the table and reached out to sweep away a lot of gifts in front of her.
There was a crash.
The gift was shattered on the ground.
Everyone was shocked, but Wu Fengying didn't even raise his eyelids.
Yi Fangfei angrily pulled out the gold hairpin on her temples and threw off the cumbersome gorgeous robe. Damn it, what went wrong, how could this happen——
She asked the heavens speechlessly. I was afraid that she would not be able to be pure even if she wanted to be pure in the days to come. Holding her head in annoyance, she left the banquet like the wind, not caring about the strange looks of those behind her.
"Princess, Princess—" Xiaolan quickly put away Yi Fangfei's gold hairpin and robe, trying to chase her out.
"Wait a minute!" Wu Fengying's frozen purple eyes flashed with joy.
"Your Majesty, what do you want me to do?" Xiaolan had no choice but to stop and wait for His Majesty's instructions.
"The princess has been having trouble with me these days and has eaten very little. She lost her temper today and probably doesn't want to eat anymore. Go and tell the kitchen to prepare some supper. I will go to Yuhexuan later to follow you.
Use it together with the princess." Wu Fengying ordered.
"Yes, Your Majesty, Xiaolan is going now." When she left, Xiaolan was in a happy mood, because she knew that the Prince still cared about the Princess, and she was happy for her master.
At the wedding hall, when those princes and ministers saw that Prince Rui didn't care about Prince Rui's rudeness at all, but showed great love to him, they couldn't help but feel that they were doing the right thing.
