The shadow of the sun gradually moves towards the south sky.
Along the long corridor, Xue Hengzhao and Chi Su slowly walked back to Furong Palace.
Different from the previous situation, Chi Su looked like a beaten eggplant at this moment, but Xue Hengzhao was more energetic than her.
"Alas..." Chi Su let out a long sigh. This was already her tenth sigh.
Xue Hengzhao let her sigh without saying a word, but with a slight smile on his lips.
In the distance, Furong Palace is already ahead.
After all, Chi Su didn't calm down and stopped and asked Xue Hengzhao: "Let me ask you, what does this mean today?"
"What do you mean by sister? I don't understand." Although Xue Hengzhao said this, he still smiled.
Obviously it's not that he doesn't know what Chi Su is asking, but he is deliberately teasing her.
Chi Su was so angry with her that she gritted her teeth and said, "What else could it be? I told you earlier that I deliberately avoided the Sixth Prince, and it was purely to protect myself. Didn't you still praise me for taking precautions?
Why are you unwilling to help me leave early in this situation today? Are you just letting me get into trouble?"
"Sister, are you afraid?" Xue Hengzhao asked.
"You are such a smart person, how can you ask questions knowingly? How can I not be afraid? His wife is the one-eyed golden toad Yao Wanyi!
Not to mention that our house was ransacked, I couldn’t afford to offend her. Even when my house wasn’t ransacked, I had to stay away.
"Sister is afraid of Yao Wanyi, so have you thought about the future?" Xue Hengzhao's face is hidden behind the magnolia branches. The flowers complement each other, which is beautiful.
"In the future? It's not like you don't know how far into the future I can think of? I don't have a head like yours." Chi Su smiled wryly at himself, but then his eyes lit up and his tone became urgent: "Hey
Zhao, are you planning for my future today?"
"Yes, not entirely." Xue Hengzhao said, "It's just that your future is included in this plan."
"But what relationship will I have with the Sixth Prince in the future?" Chi Su was still puzzled, "Is it because he angered the tigress and drove me out of work?"
"Sister Chi, no matter how dull you are, you should know that the Sixth Prince is interested in you, right?" Xue Hengzhao no longer kept it secret this time, but asked directly.
Chi Su's face suddenly turned red and she said, "What are you talking about? Who is the Sixth Prince? Who am I?"
"Yes! Then sister, why don't you tell me who the Sixth Prince is, and who are you?"
"The sixth prince is a nobleman from Tianhuang, and he is marrying the only daughter of the most powerful prime minister in the dynasty.
His mother, the Concubine Xian, was like the deputy concubine in the palace, and he is now in charge of the patrol camp in the capital. It can be said that he is extremely wealthy.
And what about me? I’m just the daughter of a sinner. I became a slave in the palace, and I’m not as comfortable as an ant.” Chi Su lowered her head.
"Sister is only talking about the current situation and the status of the two of you." Xue Hengzhao shook his head gently, "What do you think of the sixth prince's character?"
"The sixth prince, although he is a bit playful, he is very filial and a sincere person. He never bullies others, which is already very rare." Chi Su replied.
"So regardless of status, the sixth prince's character can still pass the test of his sister, right?" Xue Hengzhao asked immediately.
"That's true..." When Chi Su said this, he suddenly realized that something was wrong. He covered his mouth and said, "You damn girl! How can you trick me into talking nonsense? How can I judge His Highness the Prince?"
I don’t want my life!”
"As long as my sister treats him well, that's fine." Xue Hengzhao said and walked forward.
"Heng Zhao, wait for me! Can you speak more clearly?" Chi Su quickly chased after him.
"Sister, please wait a little slower, I can't escape." Xue Hengzhao teased Chi Su, "That's right, after all, it is your life-long event, how can you not be in a hurry?"
"You...you damn girl! Why are you keeping me entertained? What nonsense are you talking about as an unrelated person? You girl, you dare to be evil and talk nonsense!" Chi Suzhen was anxious.
And ashamed.
"Good sister, can you trust me?" Xue Hengzhao smiled sweetly.
"If I can't trust you, why do I hang around you all day long? Am I born to be a follower for others?" Chi Su asked back without answering, with a hint of resentment in his tone.
"That's it. Since you can trust me, just remember one sentence."
"Just say it." Chi Su's tone became calmer.
"In the future, you don't have to deliberately approach the Sixth Prince, and you don't have to deliberately avoid him. If he wants to talk to you, just say it to him. If he wants you to do something, you can just do it."
"In this case, will the Yao family and the queen spare me?" Chi Su was worried.
"It won't be a big deal, as long as you don't do anything really outrageous." Xue Hengzhao nodded to him with a firm tone.
"But I still don't understand, why did you let me get involved with the Sixth Prince?" Chi Su said in a resentful tone.
"It's just taking advantage of the situation! The Sixth Prince has obviously taken a liking to you. Of course, we must make good use of this opportunity." Xue Hengzhao said as he raised his finger and flicked Chi Su's forehead, "You can't stay in the palace forever.
As a maid here, I will never be like this in your life."
Chi Su wanted to ask more questions, but You Zhu happened to come over, pointed at the two of them and cursed with a smile: "How come you two little girls can't be seen when you go there? Ask me to look for you all the way! Even the empress is alarmed.
”
"We went to fold flowers and put them in a vase for the queen to enjoy." Chi Su quickly explained, "We walked a little far and wasted time."
"I'm scaring you! You really believe it." She made Youzhu giggle and reached out to take the flower from Xue Hengzhao's hand, "Hengzhao, please teach me when you have time! I want to learn too.
Learn."
"When I do it later, you just watch from the side. If you don't understand, I'll tell you." Xue Hengzhao said.
"You are so generous. If others promise not to tell anyone, but you, you will teach me if I just say a word." Youzhu was grateful and sighed at the same time.
In this palace, if you have one skill, you can do well.
Therefore, everyone takes their special skills very seriously, and what they are afraid of is that after learning, the apprentice will starve the master to death.
But Xue Hengzhao never cared about this, not only flower arranging, but also daily tea ordering and embroidery. She would not hide it from anyone who wanted to imitate her.
But she is lazy and will never be able to hold hands. It depends on the understanding of the person who learns.
"Hang Zhao wouldn't point to this meager skill! It seems to us to be a big skill, but to her it's really insignificant." Chi Su said from the side.
She understands Xue Hengzhao. Xue Hengzhao's talents are not limited to these small tricks in the boudoir. She has talents that span the world.
If she were a man, she would definitely have a place in the court.
