"Your Majesty, Princess, we are here."
Outside the carriage, Manager Zhang's slightly shrill voice came.
An Lianxi drowsily wanted to turn over, but as soon as he tilted his face to the side, his cheek was dragged by a big hand. He sat up by instinct, and his cheeks were pinched and turned in the same direction by the big hand.
"Well."
An Lian Xi Shang opened his eyes sleepily, and suddenly met Xue Shiye's eyes, which were looking at him with a hint of teasing. Only then did he suddenly realize that he had just fallen asleep with his head on the other person's lap, "I, I accidentally fell asleep."
Xue Shiye looked at him, relaxed his fingertips slightly, and let him go. However, two red finger marks appeared on the fair and soft face, which actually left marks.
He was about to change the topic of teasing, but his voice was a little cold when it came to the words he said, "When you wake up, I will go with you to see your majesty."
An Lian laughed and got out of the car.
Not far away, Manager Zhang stood there, and beside him there was a man wearing a purple round-collared narrow-sleeved robe. Eunuch Gao, who had been ordered to come here early in the morning, looked over with a smile and said politely: "I have met the prince and the princess."
"Today's palace banquet is specially prepared by His Majesty for the prince's wedding. The nobles have almost arrived and are enjoying the scenery in the imperial garden. I will take the princess there right now."
After saying that, he turned slightly sideways, with a respectful attitude.
Taking him there is not to separate from Xue Shiye. An Lianxi subconsciously went to see Xue Shiye.
Sensing the glances from the people around him, Xue Shiye glanced at her, and Manager Zhang immediately stepped forward obediently, "Princess."
An Lianxi was led by his father-in-law to the Imperial Garden. After walking a few steps away, he looked back. Xue Shiye still stood where he was, and when he saw him looking at him, his sharp eyebrows raised.
"Your Majesty has something to discuss with the prince." Seeing this scene, Eunuch Gao thought that the two newlyweds were getting along very well, so he hurriedly interjected: "I will take you, princess, to see the empress first. Later, I will take you to see the queen." The prince is coming."
The imperial edict granting marriage was issued suddenly, and Eunuch Gao did not dare to speculate on the holy intention, but he still roughly knew what His Majesty meant.
Probably because he wanted to see the prince's attitude...but from his point of view, it was quite interesting.
After Eunuch Gao finished speaking, he glanced at the carriage with his peripheral vision.
It's so small, how can two people fit in it? The princess has to sit in the prince's arms... Eunuch Gao stopped, but his old face like dried orange peel looked more and more cheerful.
Although An Lianxi has read the original work, he doesn't have much impression of the emperor of Dacheng in the book. However, he is considered a minor villain in the plot - he is on the side of King Qi, and a few are not worried about An Lianxi. The person Lian Hua moved, the Sixth Prince, was not his preferred choice for emperor.
There was only one prince that Emperor Mingkang really cared about.
That is King Qi.
But in the end, it is the halo of the protagonist, and the final outcome can be imagined.
An Lianxi was thinking about it, but his steps suddenly stopped. There seemed to be something blocking his movements under his feet. When he looked down, a black cat cub came out of nowhere and squatted on his shoes.
"Where did the kitten come from?" Eunuch Gao waved his whisk, and the two palace servants stepped forward and took the kitten away from his feet.
An Lianxi was in poor health and couldn't touch the hair of small animals, so he would always suck cats online. So this was the first time he was so close to a small animal.
Although this body was not in very good shape, compared to before, An Lianxi felt that he could be hugged, so he stared eagerly at the black cat cub in the palace man's hand.
Who is Mr. Zhang? He could see his intention at a glance and whispered: "If the princess likes it, she can take it back for a checkup and then keep her in the house."
Since it is a wild cat, it should not be touched at will.
An Lianxi also understood this, so he nodded, "Okay...Thank you, Manager Zhang."
Manager Zhang has been with the prince for so many years, and he is the only master in the house. Of course, the prince will not be so polite to them. At this moment, he suddenly heard An Lianxi thanking him. He was flattered for a moment and quickly said that he didn't dare. He had never seen a master thank his slave.
Eunuch Gao smiled and said, "The princess still has a kind heart."
There is nothing kind or unkind about this. An Lianxi glanced at him sideways.
Eunuch Gao continued: "This cat doesn't look big, but if it isn't carried by a female cat, it probably won't live long."
Especially in this palace.
An Lianxi knew all about the twists and turns, but it would indeed be difficult for a kitten to survive without its mother cat.
"Then let's find the female cat," An Lianxi said, then hesitantly looked at Manager Zhang, "Would it be too much trouble?"
Before Manager Zhang could answer, a gentle and gentle voice cut in, "The emperor's sister-in-law doesn't know something. All cats and dogs in this palace will be kicked out."
As if he had heard the sound somewhere, An Lianxi turned his head, but it was the Sixth Prince he had seen that day standing at the other end of the path.
Xue Yunqin had a gentle smile on his face and nodded distantly to An Lianxi.
An Lianxi smiled politely.
Seeing that he was silent, Xue Yunqin's eyes slightly curved, as if they could talk, and were lively and moist. Unconsciously, he walked towards this side and said, "What else does the emperor's wife want to know? You might as well ask me. I have a pretty good relationship with Lian Hua. I often hear him mention you, the emperor's wife."
Both the words and the words expressed goodwill towards An Lianxi, and even moved out of An Lianhua, An Lianxi's current nominal brother.
When the others saw him coming, they all saluted.
An Lianxi shook his head, "There's nothing more I want to know."
I wouldn't even think about asking him.
If he hadn't known the plot, Xue Yunqin had arranged the marriage originally planned for An Lianhua on him, and An Lianxi would have been deceived by the other party's gentle and jade-like mask.
Xue Yunqin nodded to Eunuch Gao, "Eunuch-in-law is here too. I just want to go see my father."
Eunuch Gao wanted to say something, but he also felt that the emperor and Prince Qi should have finished talking. The two father and son could not exchange a few words on weekdays, so he respectfully sent him off.
However, before Xue Yunqin left, his eyes lingered on An Lianxi's face for a moment, and he felt that he didn't look like An Lianhua, and even looked more sexy. I couldn't help but sigh again: It's a pity to ration his third brother.
After sending away the 'God of Plague', An Lianxi breathed a sigh of relief.
After walking a little further, we arrived at the Imperial Garden.
He ran into a group of people head-on. The woman in the lead was dressed in purple clothes and had a head full of pearls. She looked very noble, with a beautiful appearance and a enchanting figure.
Today at the palace banquet, the prince, princess, and concubines of the harem were all present. Eunuch Gao ignored the visitor and stepped forward, "Meet the noble concubine."
Concubine Min glanced at him and raised her red lips, "Eunuch Gao, why are you here, Your Majesty?"
As she spoke, she squinted at An Lianxi.
Eunuch Gao was about to introduce it, but suddenly thought of something and his heart tightened. As expected, before he could speak, Concubine Min let out a scream.
"Where did that wild cat come from? Throw it out to me!"
With just one glance, Concubine Min caught a glimpse of the cat cub held in the hands of the palace attendant behind An Lianxi, and her expression suddenly changed.
Beside her, a nanny strode over.
An Lianxi wanted to explain, "Your Majesty, this is me,"
"Shut up," Concubine Min didn't even look at An Lianxi. "Who are you? You dare to talk to me. This little beast is yours? Okay, how dare you bring this thing in front of me... You You deliberately wanted to kill me, right?"
Concubine Min couldn't help but accuse An Lian Xi'an. She was in power now, so she didn't need to look at other people's faces.
So what if Eunuch Gao is with her, no matter who he is, in this palace now, who else but the emperor can look good on her. There was nothing the Queen could do to her without even looking at her.
"Come here, help me catch this guy who tried to murder the imperial concubine."
After saying this, two eunuchs stepped forward.
Manager Zhang frowned, and Eunuch Gao felt bad, "Mom, please calm down, this is Princess Qi. She just entered the palace and doesn't know this."
The palace rule that no cats or dogs were allowed in or out happened to be set for this person. Concubine Min had her face scratched by a wild cat when she was a child. From then on, she hated cats and dogs and couldn't bear to see them.
It was also because of his carelessness that Eunuch Gao went to see Concubine Min after he finished speaking.
"Princess Qi?" Upon hearing these three words, Concubine Min's face brightened slightly, as if she was afraid. Only then did she notice Manager Zhang and recognize him.
Concubine Min pondered and glanced around, but did not see King Qi. Presumably the latter is also dissatisfied with this marriage, but she still has to give her the face she deserves, "Since you are Princess Qi, just give that little beast to me."
Hearing her say "wild cat" in one mouth and "little beast" in the other, she was very disgusted with the kitten. If it were handed over to her, she might not survive.
Thinking of this, An Lianxi couldn't help but feel anxious, but because he had never challenged anyone before, facing the arrogant Concubine Min, he lacked the confidence to say, "No..."
Concubine Min did not expect that Princess Qi, who had just married into Prince Qi's palace, would dare to openly refute her, and immediately sneered, "Princess Qi, it's just a beast, and you won't give it to me?"
It was the first time An Lianxi encountered such an aggressive person. Concubine Min's sharp eyes were directed at the knife. He was a little timid, but he endured the discomfort and said to the two eunuchs who came up, "No."
Concubine Min immediately glared at her.
Eunuch Gao saw that it was impossible to reconcile the situation, and said to himself that Concubine Min had become more and more arrogant in recent days. He looked at Manager Zhang and both of them tacitly understood each other.
"No?" Concubine Min's eyes showed malice, "Then don't blame me for being rude!"
At this moment, the man's deep and deep voice came over, "Oh? How can Concubine Min be so rude to my king's concubine?"
The familiar voice, with the same casual tone as before, instantly calmed An Lianxi's uneasiness, and he looked towards the source of the sound.
I saw Xue Shine walking slowly and slowly from a distance, looking here with an unpredictable expression.
Concubine Min's anger froze on her face.
An Lianxi looked at Xue Shiye who was approaching, leaned towards him unconsciously, and spoke in a low voice, like a bullied little animal that had found shelter, "Your Majesty..."
Xue Shine looked away, and the young man was looking at him longingly. His silhouette was reflected in a pair of shimmering, moist cat eyes, as if she trusted and attached to him wholeheartedly.
Xue Shiye frowned slightly.
What a spoiled act suddenly.
