Fu Yanci leaned back in his chair, his expression so profound that it was impossible to probe into it.
He said: "I don't know."
have no idea?
Nie Wenxun suddenly felt a little bored, but this happened a long time ago, and he didn't understand why he had to worry about it for no reason.
"Okay, okay, I'll think about it later, you really don't want to go horse racing?"
Fu Yanci said calmly: "I told you, I don't know anyone."
"Don't you know me? Wait, are you hinting at me?" Nie Wenxun looked at him intently: "What if I invite Princess Cheng?"
The big-tailed wolf achieved its goal and turned into a big lazy lion on the chair: "Let's talk about it then."
Nie Wenxun was so angry that he laughed.
He kept nodding and pointing at Fu Yanci, but he couldn't utter a single word.
"Okay, okay! It's you, Fu Yanci, who is treating your brother like a monkey!"
The tea was almost at the bottom. The steward came up to add water, but Fu Yanci raised his hand to block it: "No need."
After being out for too long, it's time for him to return home.
Nie Wenxun stood up to see him off, thinking as he walked: "Since you want me to help you, I also have a request."
He still dared to make demands, and Fu Yanci looked at him quietly.
"Bring Xiao Yi out together. He is stupid. Xiao Heng committed a crime and the Yu family fell. Isn't it a good thing for him? As a result, he was so sad that he locked himself in the palace and refused to come out."
"Since you can't even get a date, do you expect me?"
His relationship with Xiao Yi is a little better, but only a little.
Usually it was Xiao Yi who did the most teasing. He was always carefree and didn't care much about Fu Yanci's cold face.
But I didn't expect that she would be sad for Xiao Heng.
"You think of a way." Nie Wenxun glanced at his sleeve pocket, grasped the handle, and said confidently: "Don't I also have to think of a way?"
In fact, Fu Yanci didn't have to think of a solution. He went to Xiao Yi Palace and told him about tomorrow's horse race.
The young man who was depressed and about to die of sadness wiped away his tears and his eyes lit up: "Really? Are you going too?"
Fu Yanci: "..."
The prepared comfort was stuck in his throat.
But Nie Wenxun was much more circuitous. He understood Fu Yanci's temperament.
We must not only take care of His Highness Fu's face, but also protect his dignity.
So he walked around the palace three times, went to prepare some good supplements, and went to the Hou Mansion.
The person receiving the reception was not Cheng Jingyu.
Cheng Xi was not at home. Hearing that there were military affairs in the past few days, he went to Yuzhou.
But Cheng Jinghe rarely had any leisure time.
"I heard that the princess was quite frightened that day, but Wen Xun never took the time to visit. I'm really ashamed."
How dare Cheng Jinghe blame him, and in his opinion, the relationship between his sister and His Highness should not be this good.
"Your Highness, you're welcome."
It's flattering to come over and see something in person.
We took people in and served tea, but Cheng Jingyu was still nowhere to be seen.
Nie Wenxun was curious: "The princess is not in the house today? I want to invite her to go horse racing in Nagasaki tomorrow. Spring is a good time to relax, and it just soothes the princess's frightened heart."
Cheng Jinghe vaguely felt that Nie Wenxun was a little enthusiastic and strange.
But it wouldn't be good to ask directly. He smiled and said: "I went to the ancestral hall since I came back. After I came out, I seemed to have lost something again. I was looking for it in the crowded house. Butler, go ask Jingyu to come over."
Nie Wenxun knew exactly what was lost, and he curved his lips calmly.
When Cheng Jingyu came, her expression was not very good.
She clearly clutched the handkerchief when she went to the prison, and she seemed to have it in her hand when she finished watching Yu Nixiu.
Then...after seeing Fu Yanci, I felt nervous and seemed to have stuffed it away without knowing where to put it.
Could it be that it fell at the gate of the prison?
If a jailer had picked it up, he would probably have thrown it away as an old veil.
Therefore, she sent Su Yi to quickly go back to the prison to look for him, while she searched almost the entire Hou Mansion.
She was still thinking about this when she saw the gift: "Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
It was strange for Nie Wenxun to suddenly come to Cheng Mansion. If he was visiting because of the last incident, how long had it been?
It's long overdue.
She didn't believe that Nie Wenxun was showing courtesy for nothing.
Nie Wenxun didn't know that he had been seen through, so he pretended to ask: "Has the princess rested well? Her face doesn't look as good as before. I specially prepared some supplements and remember to ask the housekeeper to take them."
"Thank you, Your Highness," Cheng Jingyu said with a slight smile, "But His Highness acts as if he would treat others ill."
"Jingyu!" Cheng Jinghe scolded.
My sister dares to say anything without fear of offending others.
And just looking at it like this, she had no intention of marrying Nie Wenxun.
The smell of gunpowder is so strong.
"Princess, you are joking, but although I can't treat people, I am quite good at reading people's faces."
Cheng Jingyu took a sip of the tea served by her servant and raised her eyebrows: "Really, please tell me, Your Highness."
"I heard that the princess hasn't gone out for a few days. She must have encountered something quite troublesome. She is often in the ancestral hall. She must be troubled that no one can solve."
Cheng Jingyu said to her that you are quite capable.
But there was still a smile on his face: "Then what do you think is going on, Your Highness?"
"Did the princess lose something? That thing is not big and not valuable, but it is something that the princess cherishes, something personal or something?"
Cheng Jingyu's smile froze.
It is a personal thing, the only thing left to her by her mother.
To a girl's family, a handkerchief is considered a private item.
Cheng Jingyu sat up a little straighter: "Has your Highness seen my things? If so, can you give me some directions? Jingyu will definitely thank Your Highness once I find them."
"It seems to be really important." Nie Wenxun did not respond directly at all, but rather roundaboutly: "I wonder if the princess is free tomorrow?"
Cheng Jinghe immediately sat upright: "What, does His Highness have something to say that cannot be said in the palace?"
Do you still have to ask Cheng Jingyu out?
It's easy for people to gossip about this man and woman alone!
No, he rejected Nie Wenxun with his eyes.
Cheng Jingyu was eager to find the handkerchief, regardless of whether it was a trap or not: "Can you really get it back?"
"I think I'm in good physical condition, but I don't have anything here."
Cheng Jinghe: "Where to go?"
Nie Wenxun then became slightly serious: "You are such a major general. I have made an appointment with a few young men to go horse racing in Nagasaki tomorrow. It's just for fun. I want to invite the princess to come with me."
Horse racing?
"Horse racing is not something a girl should go to. Since she has an appointment with the young master, it is inappropriate for Jingyu to go there."
This is rejection.
If I had known that Cheng Jingyu had a father and a brother, it would have been difficult to let him go.
Even if Cheng Xi is not there, it is not completely difficult to operate.
Nie Wenxun had put in a lot of effort before he came.
He cupped his hands and said, "The spring weather is beautiful. I ordered people to go to the Nagasaki River and set up a spring banquet. The girls picked flowers and the gentlemen ran horses. It was really elegant. Moreover, I also went to the Chen family's girl's place. Posted for the Major General."
As expected, Cheng Jinghe's expression suddenly changed and he stood up quickly: "Miss Chen, are you going too?"
"Yes, the major general is worried about the princess, so how about we go together?"
Before Cheng Jingyu expressed any thoughts, her brother responded first: "When is tomorrow?"
