Chi Su was walking back from the east aisle of Fuhai Gate. Someone tapped her on the shoulder from behind. Chi Su turned around, but she didn't see anyone.
Then she was tapped on the other shoulder again. This time she turned her head in the opposite direction, laughing and cursing: "What a narrow-minded person..."
Unexpectedly, it was the Sixth Prince. Chi Su was so frightened that he swallowed his words and hurriedly bowed and said: "I'm going to pay my respects to the Sixth Prince. I didn't know it was His Highness. How offensive it is."
"You are really clever." The Sixth Prince said with a smile, "Ordinary people would be dizzy and still not be able to see me!"
Chi Su originally didn't want to say more to him, but thinking of Xue Hengzhao's previous instructions to him, he responded: "Thank you for the compliment, Your Highness."
Seeing that she was about to leave, the Sixth Prince hurriedly stopped her and said, "Don't leave in a hurry. I have something I need you to tell me."
"This slave is still busy giving us a reply!" Chi Su said, "I don't dare to delay for too long..."
"It doesn't matter, Miss Xue told me not to worry, she has done everything for you." The Sixth Prince said with a smile, "I happened to meet her when I came from the south, and it was her Tell me you're over here!"
Hearing what he said, Chi Su couldn't do anything and could only stand there.
"You know we are all busy with the Holy Ceremony. There is a scene where thousands of women perform dances, divided into ten pairs, each team has a hundred people. Ninety-nine are surrounding the city in a circle on the ground holding big fans. When dancing, there is another person riding on a maroon horse, holding colorful silk in his hand, dancing in the center of the circle.
Originally, I had already decided on it and had been practicing for several months. But yesterday, the woman in the center of the fifth team fell off her horse and broke her right arm.
Therefore, we must find a substitute as soon as possible, but there is no suitable person in this palace for a while, so I thought of you. "
"Your Highness, this servant can indeed ride a horse, but she is not good at dancing." Chi Su said, "I'm afraid it won't work."
"It's a dance, but the key is actually the equestrian skills, and more importantly, the arm strength. Those two pieces of silk are three feet long, and ordinary women can't swing them.
I've seen your skills before, but you can't hide it from me. Don't worry, with me as your guarantee, no one will make things difficult for you. The sixth prince looked at Chi Su earnestly, "Miss Chi, it's me who begs you." For a while, no suitable person could be found in the palace, and those outside were unreliable. Because you are a rescuer, you are particularly meritorious. I will definitely ask people to take care of your family when I turn around, and no one will say anything. "
Chi Su saw that the sixth prince was very anxious because of this matter, and the conditions he proposed really made his heart move.
So he said: "His Highness came to the servant in person. The servant wanted to agree, but I was afraid that I would be useless and that I would be disappointed."
"No, no, as long as you agree, thank God." The Sixth Prince said, "This matter is now under my control. If anything happens, I will be the first to be punished.
If I just send someone to find you, or talk to Concubine Fu, it's probably okay, but that would be too rude. "
Chi Su was surprised and amused after hearing this, and said: "Your Highness is getting more and more outrageous. I am just a palace maid. Even if you find someone to talk to me, they are flattering me. Your Highness said it to me personally, which is really true." I broke my servant."
"The nobility of a person does not lie in status," the Sixth Prince said sternly, "You are a woman who doesn't show off her eyebrows. I can only admire and envy you. How can I dare to look at you as a human being?"
Chi Su felt even more embarrassed when he said this, and wanted to ask him why he thought so, but someone came from a distance. Chi Su was afraid that people would gossip, so he just said: "His Royal Highness's blue-eyed servant is really unworthy, but This matter has been settled. This slave must go back and report back to the queen."
After saying that, he bowed hastily and turned around.
But she still couldn't help but murmur in her heart. As she turned another corner and reached Furong Palace, someone suddenly stopped her again.
Chi Su was startled again, and when she looked closely, it was Lin Fufei.
"Damn girl, why are you hiding here? You scared me." When Chi Su saw it was Lin Fufei, she couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief and asked her, "What are you doing here? Why don't you go in and wait?" "
"Sister, I ran here secretly, I didn't dare to delay any longer." Lin Fufei looked to the left and right as he spoke, for fear that someone would pass by.
Seeing her like this, Chi Su couldn't help but become nervous and asked, "What's wrong? What happened?"
"I don't know what's going on. You just need to tell Sister Xue that Ma Cairen asked me what she told me, and I followed her instructions." Lin Fufei said hurriedly, "Let her go early." Be careful, I have to go back quickly, I can’t be seen coming here.”
After saying that, he walked around from the other side without looking back.
Chi Su stood there stunned for a while and murmured to himself: "What happened to these people today? One or two of them talked without any clue."
When he arrived at Furong Palace, he first went to Concubine Fu and replied, and then came back.
At that time, Xue Hengzhao, Fangdian Youzhu and others were watching ants on the steps. They broke the Bazhen cake into pieces and scattered them on the ground, attracting the ants to move them.
"You guys are really disgusting. The ants are used to eating them. They will crawl into the house in a few days and bite you all in big bumps." Chi Su stepped forward and said.
"Let them move as much as they can today. Two pieces of cake will be enough for them to work for a whole day." Youzhu said, "How can it be so easy to get into the house?"
"During the Dragon Boat Festival, we sprinkled realgar in our house so they wouldn't go in." Fangdian also said, "Oh, I remembered that the three girls in the cake pool love it most, and the ants can be regarded as the tiger's mouth. Taking away food."
"You will arrange me." Chi Su pretended to be angry, "Everyone has sharp teeth and a sharp mouth. I don't know what I will be reborn in the next life!"
Then he said to Xue Hengzhao: "Your legs are really fast today. I hurriedly and slowly caught up with you. Come in and comb your hair for me, otherwise you won't be able to calm down."
Youzhu and Fangdian also stood up and said, "You two, let's have some fun. We have to wait at the front, otherwise we will definitely get scolded by Sister Bishu."
Said and went.
Xue Hengzhao then asked Chi Su: "Why did you meet the Sixth Prince?"
"Don't talk about it yet, there are more important things." Chi Su said, "I met Fufei when I came back. She was very anxious and asked me to send a message to you.
She said everything you asked her to say last time. It was Ma Cairen who asked her. what is going on? "
"It's okay to tell you, but you have to tell me first, have you agreed to marry the Sixth Prince?" Xue Hengzhao asked with a smile.
"What do you think?" Chi Su glanced at her angrily, "What on earth did you tell the Sixth Prince about me? It made me so embarrassed today."
"Of course I have a nice word for you." Xue Hengzhao smiled, "Don't worry, I don't have a bad word to say."
"That's not what I meant. Of course I know you won't say bad things about me. But what I'm worried about is that you said that I'm too good. I'm not like that. The more polite the Sixth Prince is to me, the more I will Embarrassing.”
