Under the cover of winter snow, Jing Yao’s last year is near.

As usual, there will be major sacrificial activities on the New Year’s Day, as well as a court banquet. It’s just because of the national funeral that all the etiquette have been simplified, and Qin Nuo entered the palace early in the morning.

Today is the New Year’s Day, and a banquet is given in the palace. As a prince, Qin Nuo arranged a position very high this time. In fact, even if he is now the county king, his position will not be too far away from the emperor.

I still remember the last Mid-Autumn Palace banquet. There was a lot of people in this magnificent hall. The princes of the clan and the princes were chatting and laughing. Even in order to limit the number of people, only the princes and their princes could enter. Now, it is wide Only seven or eight tables were reluctantly placed in his hall, and even Qin Ze, who was guarding the imperial tomb, was summoned back.

This is the first time Qin Nuo has seen Qin Ze in half a year. I don’t know if it was because the days of guarding the imperial mausoleum were too cold, Qin Ze looked indifferent, as if he was separated from everyone by a layer.

In fact, not only him, but Qin Xun, who has always been exquisite, is a bit listless. At the beginning, he said a few jokes and talked about interesting things about the capital, and found that the emperor on the throne was in low spirits and lacked interest, so he fell into a sigh of relief.

Qin Nuo carefully looked at the face of the emperor’s brother next to him. He had long heard that his emperor’s brother had been in poor health for some time recently, but now it seems that he has a trace of defeat.

In the second half of the palace banquet, Qin Nuo slipped out with the opportunity of changing clothes and found Qin Zhi in the apse again.

Qin Zhi is serving the Queen Mother Huo, and now her status is not better than usual. In this Qin Jian rebellion, the clan who slaughtered not only the princes and sons, but also the princess and the horses were brutally murdered. At that time, Qin Zhi escaped from the palace because of the wind and cold.

There are only three princesses surviving now. One has been married out of the palace, and the nineteenth princess is three years old. Therefore, only Qin Zhi is the representative of the clan who accompanies the Queen Huo and the Queen at the banquet celebration.

Finally found an opportunity to slip out, and when the two met, Qin Nuo was taken aback.

Qin Zhi’s face was pale, her figure was thin, and her whole body was much more haggard than last time. Is it because the wind and cold just recovered from the illness, or is it because the palace servants did not serve well?

Qin Nuo quickly asked about her days in the palace.

“It’s much more enjoyable than before. Now I moved to the Spring Palace, and the unused mothers around me have also changed. Brother don’t need to worry.” Qin Zhi said absently, “I just think of a few older sisters, these days I feel uncomfortable. You said, how could the third brother be so cruel!”

Qin Nuo looked sad, and could only say that there is a limit to the anger and pressure accumulated by people, and Qin Jian obviously surpassed the limit, so he never returned on the road of madness. As the culprit of the rebellion, Qin Jian had already been deposed from the throne, and was frustrated.

“But, brother, I heard that there have been rumors in the palace recently.”

“What rumors?”

“The third brother was cursed by the human witch, so he went crazy. I heard that it was the ghost of King Lai.”

Qin Nuo is speechless. The old story between King Lai, Concubine Guo, and Emperor Jing Yao’s old son will be brought up again in this way. Forget it, the parties are all dead anyway.

Qin Zhi mentioned another thing: “Brother, I also heard the empress and the empresses talk about the drafting after the beginning of the spring, not only to buy a harem for the emperor, but also to marry several princes.”

Meaning of marriage! Qin Nuo was taken aback. “Wait, I’m still in the filial piety period.”

“Next year will be the second year of filial piety. It is not possible to marry a wife, but it does not prevent you from taking a concubine. I listen to what the queens say, it seems that the concubine first disagrees, and points to the concubines and concubines for each prince. Enter the house.”

“No.” Qin Nuo was shocked, he didn’t want to gather a bunch of concubines.

However, compared to his worry, Qin Zhi was obviously more worried. After a moment of silence, she suddenly asked.

“Brother, you said, would you want me to go and kiss?”

Qin Nuo was taken aback for a moment, and a huge wave suddenly appeared in his heart. Oops, he even forgot about it!

Now the only princess of the right age in the palace is Qin Zhi. If there are many noble women in the clan, you can also choose a canonized princess from the prince or the prefectural palace, but now…

Qin Zhi showed a bitter smile. These days, she was worried day and night and couldn’t eat, not only because of mourning for the dead brothers and sisters, but also because of worrying about it.

After breaking up with Qin Zhi, Qin Nuo walked down the road worriedly.

Passing the corridor, looking at the rippling Xiyue Lake in the distance, I couldn’t help stopping.

Here, he met Qin Jian and Huo Youjuan by chance last time. To be fair, it was not a pleasant scene, but after all, he didn’t expect that after just a few months, he would be so different.

Can’t help but think again, how is Huo Youjuan now? After returning to Huo’s house, she is still a famous lady, and maybe she will be able to hear the news of her entering the palace as a concubine next year.

He was inexplicably depressed, turned around and was about to leave, suddenly a low call came from behind him.

“Lord.”

Qin Nuo turned and looked at it, it turned out to be Huo Youjuan.

She is standing at the end of the corridor, in a long green dress with silver lily patterns on the corners, and a white fox cloak on her shoulders. The white fluff is clustered around the swan-like neck, and her face is lined. Sweet and moving, maybe because of running around, she has a pink blush on her face.

Qin Nuo couldn’t help but think of the time the two were hidden in the hot spring. She also has such ruddy cheeks, but desperately struggling between her eyebrows, which is far less vivid and lovely than now.

I haven’t seen her for a while, and she has lost a lot of weight.

“It’s a coincidence that I didn’t expect to meet you here.” Qin Nuo restrained his mood and greeted him, because of the shared adversity experience, he was a little closer to Huo Youjuan.

“It wasn’t a coincidence that the courtier noticed that the thirteenth princess got up and left, and she understood that she was probably coming to see the prince. So she followed behind.” Huo Youjuan blinked slyly. Those eyes seemed to say, I’m smart, come and praise me.

“Uh, should I praise you for being smart?” Qin Nuo became inexplicably hearty, and said with a smile. “That stupid girl Zhier didn’t find you following.”

“Thirteen princesses have a kind heart. In fact, in this palace, there are no secrets.” Huo Youjuan’s eyes fell on the rockery in front, “Just like last time, His Royal Highness saved the courtiers here…”

Qin Nuo was shocked, “How do you know?”

The rockery in front of me is where Huo Youjuan was bullied by Qin Jian last time. At that time, Qin Nuo had just hid Ge Xianfei’s clothes and jewelry by the lake and was about to leave, but the trip was blocked by the two. In order to avoid revealing his whereabouts, he pushed down the flower pot and interrupted Qin Jian’s “good deeds.”

Huo Youjuan glanced at him and said with a smile: “I returned here to check afterwards and found that there were footprints on the back of the rockery, and there were also finger marks on the fallen flowerpot. So I guessed that the flowerpot fell was a coincidence.”

“After that, I secretly asked the palace people around. There are few people in this neighborhood. At that time, it seems that only the prince came in this direction.”

“Actually, I am not sure, but the prince himself admitted just now.” Huo Youjuan’s eyes were bright, full of joy. Some temptation got the result she longed for.

“No one else knows about this.” Qin Nuo couldn’t help asking.

“Is the prince worried about anything? The person has disappeared, and it is impossible to retaliate against you and me, and YouJian will not tell anyone about this.” Huo YouJian laughed.

In front of this girl, I really can’t say a word! Qin Nuo was secretly frightened. What he was worried about was that the burying of Ge Xianfei’s clothes and jewelry had also been discovered, but now it seems that no one has noticed it.

“Aren’t you going to attend the banquet in the inner temple, it’s okay to come out here? The Queen Mother will send someone to find you.”

“Why would the empress dowager send someone to look for me, now she would like me to disappear.” Huo Youjuan smiled bitterly. “After all, the chess pieces that had been abandoned suddenly came back peacefully, and the empress dowager didn’t like the embarrassing taste. “In fact, she didn’t want to go to the palace this time to participate in this two-looking palace banquet, but, except this time, she couldn’t find a chance to see him again.

Huo Youjuan lowered his head and kicked the pillar next to him, and whispered: “I hate them too.”

The human heart is subtle. If Huo Youjuan was the person whom the Queen Mother Huo was disgusted with or cold-hearted before, and she returned safely, the Queen Mother Huo might only sneer, so she is lucky! However, Huo Youjuan was the Queen Mother Huo’s extremely beloved niece. Now that she can’t calculate it, they are extremely embarrassed when they return safely. The Queen Mother Huo is obviously the strong side, and anyone who embarrassed or unhappy her will not end well.

After a moment of dullness, Huo Youjuan quickly cheered up again: “His Royal Highness rescued me last time, I didn’t mention it to anyone.”

“I understand, you are worried about me being involved.” Qin Nuo smiled, but he was a little confused immediately. “I met Huo Shangshu at the funeral of the British Royal Mansion a few days ago, and he also thanked me.”

Huo Youjuan’s face suddenly widened, “You won’t admit it, will you?”

Qin Nuo nodded.

“This old fox, huh, I didn’t tell anyone, he guessed so little, so he went to you to test.”

How do the father and daughter get along? Qin Nuo suddenly became a little amused. Looking at Huo Youjuan with an angry face, she couldn’t help but said: “You and Huo Shangshu really have a family relationship.”

Understanding that he was laughing at what he had just tried to test him, Huo Youjian’s cheeks flew blush.

“In fact, the young silk came to see the prince for business.” She paused, and finally plucked up the courage to ask, “Will the prince marry me?”

Qin Nuo was taken aback by this question, and when he looked up, Huo Youjuan’s clear and bright eyes were a little bit shy, but they were more nervous and expectant.

“Okay.” Without any extra words, Qin Nuo nodded readily.

From Qin Zhi’s mouth, he heard the news of the upcoming draft marriage. If it is a strange boudoir girl, then he would rather choose the person in front of him.

In this era, he felt that he couldn’t find someone more vivid and vivid than the girl in front of him, who tempted him.

Hearing Qin Nuo’s answer, Huo Youjuan seemed to be unable to react for a while. Finally, she woke up, and then suddenly covered her face.

After a moment of silence, she put down her hands, her cheeks were flushed, her beauty was amazing.

“His Royal Highness, did you know that your promise saved me. I don’t have to go to the temple at last.” There was a gleam of light in her eyes, which seemed to come out of her eyes, but she stubbornly blinked.

“Go to the temple?”

“Well,” Huo Youjuan nodded vigorously, “If I can’t get a promise here, I can’t stay at home, so I might as well go to the monastery and get refreshed.”

The situation of Huo’s family seems to be more complicated than I thought! Qin Nuo secretly sighed that he is an activist and has made up his mind, “Then, I will go to your home to propose marriage as soon as possible.”

“No, it’s too reckless to propose a marriage rashly, we still have to discuss a plan.” Huo Youjuan’s pearl-like teeth bit her pink lips slightly, and said in distress.
