Chapter 408 Nickname

Xie Mingxi smiled sullenly in Sheng Hong's arms.

What a "troublesome little goblin", these words sound weird and ridiculous! I guess it is a popular saying in his world.

The beauty is in my arms.

Sheng Hong was in a happy mood and didn't mind Xie Mingxi's teasing at all. He grinned and said: "Mingxi, I have always wanted to give you a nickname. It is only for me and only the two of us know it."

The young man's voice is clear and sweet, and his breath is clean and smells good.

Xie Mingxi did not reject his hug. She naturally put her head close to his chest and asked casually: "What's your nickname?"

Sheng Hong said enthusiastically: "Can I call you Xiao Ming?"

Xie's family calls her Ming Niang, her classmates and friends call her Sister Xie, and Chief Gu calls her Ming Xi.

Xiao Ming! This nickname feels a little strange.

Xie Mingxi recited it silently several times, then looked up at Sheng Hong: "Does this name have any special meaning?"

Sheng Hong raised his eyebrows and smiled with a hint of evil: "Nothing. Where I once lived, this name is very common and almost everyone knows it."

Xie Mingxi glanced at Sheng Hong: "Then I'll call you Xiaohong."

Sheng Hong: "..."

Xiao Ming and Xiao Hong are such a perfect match!

Sheng Hong grinned: "Okay, from now on when no one is around in private, we will call each other this way."

Sheng Hong was so happy that Xie Mingxi couldn't understand the meaning for a moment. However, seeing Sheng Hong happy, she felt relaxed and relieved.

The two hugged each other and whispered occasionally, unaware that time passed.



There were footsteps outside the carriage, and then Xianghui coughed softly: "Your Highness, Miss Ruoyao next to Chief Gu is here."

Xie Mingxi pushed Sheng Hong away reflexively.

Sheng Hong was caught off guard and was hit on the back of his head. He grimaced in pain and sucked in cold air.

Xie Mingxi didn't feel distressed at all. She rolled her eyes and said, "I just gave you a gentle push. If you keep pretending, see how I deal with you."

Xie Mingxi became more and more direct and rude when talking to him!

This is how you truly accept him!

Thinking of this, Sheng Hong felt sweet in his heart and stared at Xie Mingxi lovingly.

Xie Mingxi ignored him, opened the door and got out of the carriage.

Sheng Hong hurriedly followed and got off the carriage.

Ruoyao stepped forward and bowed: "The chief of the mountain has ordered your servant to come. The time for one stick of incense has passed. Please return to the palace early!"

Sheng Hong nodded, feeling reluctant to leave, and whispered to Xie Mingxi: "I'm leaving now. I'll come see you again when I'm fully recovered."

"I will write a letter and ask Xianghui to send it. Don't forget to write a reply and ask Xianghui to bring it to the palace. Speaking of which, you are really cruel. I wrote you six letters, but you didn't reply to any of them.

…”

Nonstop chattering!

Ruoyao pursed her lips and smiled.

Xianghui and others also turned their heads and snickered.

Xie Mingxi felt embarrassed, rolled her eyes at Sheng Hong, and turned around to enter the academy. It wasn't until she walked some way that Xie Mingxi looked back.

Sheng Hong was still standing where he was. He seemed to have been waiting for her to look back and then smile brightly.

The smile is bright and dazzling in the dark night.

Xie Mingxi turned her head, raised the corners of her lips, and walked briskly.



After that day, Sheng Hong stayed peacefully in the palace and did not show up again.

A letter every day, but never stopped.

The letters were sometimes long and sometimes short, sometimes just a few words. As there was nothing to write, Sheng Hong copied a sour love poem and asked Xianghui to send it to Lianchi Academy.

Under Sheng Hong's strong protest, Xie Mingxi wrote a reply every five days.

Compared with Sheng Hong's lengthy and long-winded nonsense, Xie Mingxi's reply was very concise and clear.

everything is fine.

Sheng Hong opened the letter with joy. When he saw that there were only four words on the clean white paper, his feelings at that time could not be described in words.

That night, Sheng Hong used three full pages to accuse Xie Mingxi of being cold-blooded and ruthless.

Xie Mingxi’s second reply was slightly longer.

Everything is fine with Xiao Ming, and there is no need to worry about Xiao Hong.

Sheng Hong: "..."



The unmarried couple communicated frequently and could not hide it from everyone in the palace.

Emperor Jianwen smiled casually in front of Queen Yu and said, "I didn't know how deep the love between Hong'er and Miss Xie San is."

Whether it was a casual remark, or whether it made me unhappy because I remembered old things, I don’t know.

Empress Yu smiled slightly and continued: "I remember that after the emperor and my concubine arranged to get married, the emperor wished he could come to Yu Mansion every day."

Emperor Jianwen was reminded of the sweet memories of his youth, and he smiled happily: "Yes! However, I was not as shameless as Hong'er back then, and I couldn't do things like write letters every day."

The emperor and empress chatted for a few words and then put the matter aside without mentioning it.

Concubine Jing called the fifth prince privately: "Look at the seventh prince. He writes to his fiancée every day. He looks so affectionate. Why don't you write to Miss Yin?"

Fifth Prince: "..."

The fifth prince twitched his lips and said righteously: "How can a man with a majestic height of seven feet be in love with his daughter all day long? Besides, if he is pampered like this before they are married, he will not be able to rely on pampering to make him spoiled in the future."

"I really don't despise the Seventh Emperor's behavior."

Concubine Jing glanced at her duplicitous son, not bothering to reveal his inner thoughts. She waved her hand and said, "That's all. If you don't want to, just ignore it. Just pretend I didn't say it."



The next day.

Yin Xiaoxiao is wearing a red and white military uniform and riding a maroon horse. She is pretty, bright and full of heroism.

Arriving outside Lianchi Academy, Yin Xiaoxiao tightened the reins and dismounted neatly. Then she touched the mane of her beloved horse affectionately: "Slowly, are you hungry? I will send you to the stable to eat bean cakes."

A familiar chuckle sounded from behind: "Sister Yin, wait a moment, I will go with you."

Yin Xiaoxiao smiled and turned around: "Thank you, sister."

It was Xie Mingxi who came riding a white horse.

Emperor Jianwen was detestable, but Xie Mingxi liked the horse that Emperor Jianwen had given him to ride on the snow. It had great endurance and was very spiritual.

"Don't you live in the academy? Why did you ride here from outside so early in the morning?" Yin Xiaoxiao asked with a smile.

Xie Mingxi smiled helplessly: "Ta Xue was locked in the stable all day long, and she couldn't help but feel depressed. I had to get up early every day and ride Ta Xue out for a while to let her breathe."

Yin Xiaoxiao loves horses as much as her life, and nodded sympathetically: "It will be the same gradually. If you stay in the stable all day long, you will become bored and impatient."

As they were talking, a young man in his twenties came over and said in a rather shrill voice: "Is this Miss Yin?"

Yin Xiaoxiao was stunned and glanced quickly.

She has fair skin, feminine appearance, and lacks the masculinity that a man should have. You can tell at a glance that he is a palace servant.

The chamberlain said respectfully: "This servant, on the orders of His Highness the Fifth Prince, delivers a letter to Miss Yin."

Yin Xiaoxiao: "..." (To be continued)
