Zhu Scarlett instinctively touched her earlobe. She had clearly checked it up and down before, but how could she not notice that she had lost such an important accessory as an earring?
But after touching her left ear and her right ear, both earrings were quietly pinned to her earlobes.
Looking carefully at the one lying in Yan Wei's hand, she didn't own it at all.
Yan Weiyang gave a bad smile. His face was very charming when he smiled. If other girls saw it, they would be reluctant to blame him. He took out another earring from his sleeve and stuffed it with the one in his palm. In the hands of Zhu Sijia:
"I made a little joke with the Queen's Wife. I hope the Queen's Wife doesn't mind. These pair of emerald tassel earrings were specially found by my younger brother to present to the Queen's Wife."
It seemed that he was giving the gift in the name of a joke, but actually he was testing himself with the rockery.
When Yan Xing was entangled with her at the rockery, he probably didn't see the whole picture, but he must have used other things to determine that she stayed at the rockery for a long time, so he used this thing to test her.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to act so straightforwardly, or he would definitely test Yan Xing and other men before deciding on another candidate in the rockery.
We can't mess up our position at this time.
Zhu Sijia gritted her teeth, but put on a calm smile on her face. She accepted the earrings given by Yan Wei, took them off her ears in front of him, and replaced them with the pair of emerald tassel earrings.
Beauty and jade complement each other, the beauty is stunning, unlike ordinary people, and the generous behavior made Yan Wei suddenly hold his breath subconsciously.
"Thank you, King Xiang."
The snowy building.
It was already late after returning from the palace. Although he had a good drink with the princes who were expiring at the banquet, when he returned to Yanxue Tower, Yan Wei immediately changed back to the cold face of the owner of Yanxue Tower.
Yanxue Tower is located in the mountains surrounding the palace to the north. It is a gorgeous suspended city carved out of the mountains by hard work. In addition to the most basic business institutions and training places, this place is also the home of many dragon guards. residence.
Yan Wei called a dragon guard and handed him a piece of paper:
"Broken jade, it contains detailed records of Zhu Ya's various industries in Xijing City, but these are all approved by His Majesty. But no matter what method you use, you must investigate it strictly."
The imperial court stipulated that the prince was not allowed to engage in business in any form, let alone privately maintain a large-scale estate with more than a hundred people, otherwise it would be treason.
The prince dare not raise her, but that is not necessarily the case for a woman who is used by the prince.
Especially privileged women.
Yan Wei was the last one to arrive at the banquet. When he passed by the Imperial Garden, he smelled a light fragrance. Without thinking too much, it must have come from Zhu Sijia.
In the whole world, she is the only one with so many strange fragrances.
He also found a strand of thin silk that had been hooked off the rockery. The silk was completely white and had a shimmer. At first glance, it was a fine Yan Yu wine glass, specially designed for the royal family to sew for all kinds of princes to wear on formal occasions. python robe.
The princes at the Laba Banquet were all wearing the same python robes, and the identity of that person could not be confirmed for the moment.
Not long after Yan Wei sat down, he tested several princes one by one in the name of toasting, and found that there were unnoticeable traces of silk loss on Yan Xing's cuffs.
Moreover, Yan Xing’s mouth was injured, and the out-of-place area on the outer circle did not look like it was stained by blood, but more like a woman’s lipstick...
Sui Yu took the paper from Yan Wei's hand and said, "I accept your orders."
I looked at his face carefully by the candlelight. As his name suggests, he was obviously a man, but he was as handsome as a peach and plum, with skin as smooth as jade. He had a bald head and long eyebrows like a moth. Unfortunately, there was a faint line of hair on the left side of his face from the eyebrow bone to the cheek. Scar, hence the word "broken".
Wasn't he the dragon guard who acted as Zhu Sijia's coachman that day?
It's just that he specially dressed up that day. Not only did he put on a round beard and blacken his face, but he also put stuffing in his mouth to change the tone of his voice.
Zhu Sijia and others would find it difficult to recognize him again.
…
There were endless banquets and endless drinks. Although the Qin Dynasty was hit by a snowstorm this winter, it was not greatly affected due to sufficient money and materials.
In a blink of an eye, the time has arrived for Yan Xiu’s birthday.
Entering January, the weather has not improved, and it will take several more months for the coldness left over from the cold winter to dissipate.
Then came a relatively comfortable summer.
During this period, Zhu Scarlett took over all the banquets in the palace. Although she was tired, all the banquets were successfully completed in an orderly manner. She became more and more comfortable and gained a lot.
I thought Yan Xiu's twenty-third birthday would be enough for her to be busy.
Unexpectedly, he drove all the vassal kings back after New Year's Eve and threatened that there would be no need to hold a banquet for his birthday this year.
This may be a big deal for other kings, but it is not surprising at all for Yan Xiu. He spent several birthdays on the battlefield.
I wish Scarlett a few extra days of free time.
In the past few days, she had gone to Tai Chi Palace to look for Yan Xiu, but he personally stopped her every time and took her back to Changle Palace under various excuses.
Could it be that there is some secret treasure hidden in his Tai Chi Palace?
There were even rumors in the palace that His Majesty secretly got a great beauty, even more beautiful than Zhu Sijia, but he did not dare to let Zhu Sijia know about it, so he invited Zhu Sijia out of the Tai Chi Palace many times.
Hearing these rumors, Zhu Sijia just smiled lightly and continued to play with the fresh plum blossoms just picked today.
Before dinner, Hu Shunhai came to Changle Palace in person and asked people: "Please also ask Jieyu to go to Taiji Palace."
Zhu Sijia put the plum blossoms into the vase: "Your Majesty called me today, why did you call me?"
Hu Shunhai smiled and said: "I don't know this either. Jieyu will understand after following me for a while."
Pushing open the door of the main hall of Tai Chi Palace, you will see a sea of red.
There are dragons and phoenixes with bright candles, lanterns and colorful decorations, and red silk decorations everywhere. Isn’t this the most common new house for folk weddings? Could it be that this is why Yan Xiu has been so secretive these days?
Before Zhu Sijia could react, the door was gently closed from behind.
Yan Xiu, dressed in red wedding clothes, walked out of the dormitory.
The dress he was wearing was not the wedding dress with dragon pattern worn by emperors, but the blue bird and crane pattern used by ordinary men to get married. The ordinary style, but he wore it with countless romantic connotations.
"Cicada, don't you recognize me?"
Yan Xiu walked up to Zhu Sijia and led her forward: "Let's go to worship."
It turned out that he actually wanted to hold a new wedding with Zhu Sijia in private.
Zhu Scarlett casually wore a pink skirt today. If he really wanted to drag her to worship, wouldn't this outfit be too inappropriate?
"Your Majesty, I would like to change my clothes..."
Zhu Sijia said cooperatively.
Yan Xiu smiled and said: "No, Cicada, today you and I are no longer the Emperor of Qin and Jieyu, we are just the most ordinary couple, there is no need to call ourselves that."
"Yan Xiu is the eleventh monarch of the Qin Dynasty. Zhu Jieyu is the Jieyu of the current Emperor of Qin and all the people in the world, but Cicada is the personal cicada of Yan Xuan. Yan Xuanzhi and Zhu Sijia got married on the seventh day of the first lunar month. As husband and wife, there is no doubt about their love."
