However, they couldn't buy those cute-colored clothes after all.
In fact, they didn't even set foot in Hangzhou.
Cen Xijin hummed and gathered her clothes, and slowly began to put away the old clothes in her hands. Soon she found a new pleasure and said with a smile: "Tomorrow we will live in the Gushan Palace. Since it is a palace, The rules inside are certainly not trivial. Then we have to go up to the Tide Watching Tower, inspect the weaving, inspect the dams, inspect the watermen, and have a banquet of deer singing. On the way back, we have to inspect the river works, pay homage to the Mencius Temple, and pay homage to the Confucius Temple, the Jade Emperor. Burning incense, I’m so busy that I don’t even have time to play! Let me tell you, we might as well find a few friends of the same age to have wine and a banquet with us in the free evening, and have a good time!”
"Then, shall we invite our father to come?" The second prince naturally wanted to have fun, but he felt that if he knew about this, he would inform his father, otherwise he would be caught by someone who wanted to say that he was arrogant, extravagant, and playful in front of his father. Wine is no good.
"I have to invite you, but how can your majesty come to our little banquet? There are no beauties..." Of course, I have to invite you, but it is not up to them to decide whether they come or not. .
Cen Xijin guessed that Emperor Zhengxing would most likely not come.
Emperor Zhengxing is now focused on the weak and boneless Jiangnan beauties. He can't even take care of Concubine Shu. How can he care about a son?
She guessed right. It was still broad daylight when the second prince beat his slave and brought him here, but Emperor Zhengxing was busy having sex with his new favorite on the dragon bed. When he heard this, he only waved his hand and then gave him generously. When the son disperses some wealth, he can be regarded as a benevolent and loving father.
Anyway, Cen Xijin didn't want the old emperor to come. As long as the old emperor brought the money wisely, that would be fine.
Cen Xijin happily counted the number of people: "Your Highness, who have you invited?" Anyway, the food is all ready-made, and there is no shortage of delicious food on the royal pleasure boat. They hold banquets and wine just for the purpose of getting together among friends. Just get together and have some fun.
The second prince replied silently: "I have sent people to invite my fifth brother, Princess Xianrong and Princess Xining. Alas, it's a pity that the little fat guy Qian Mao and the others are not here, and the eldest brother can't come either... "
Cen Xijin nodded and sighed: "Wang Xiang didn't come either..." And her boyfriend Xiao Ming didn't come either! !
I wonder what these people are doing in the palace?
"But can Concubine Sun let the fifth prince and Princess Xining come and play with us?" Cen Xijin touched her chin. She felt that the possibility of such a thing was very small.
Concubine Sun was not happy to get close to people from Xianxian Palace and Guanju Palace, let alone her biological children.
"As long as the fifth brother can come." Mu Yunzhao and he can be considered the brothers who can talk to each other. The second prince also likes this younger brother. This child is well-behaved and honest, and not very courageous. He is almost like Concubine Sun. They are people from two worlds. In contrast, Xining is a bit hateful.
In front of the second prince, Cen Xijin nodded rudely and commented: "To be honest, I don't like Princess Xining."
The second prince smiled and grabbed her hand and put it in his palm: "If you don't like her, I'll just find a way to coax her away later."
The second prince only felt that Xi Ning was raised too unruly by Concubine Sun. This girl looked down on this and that all day long, and would throw things if she disagreed with her. Because of this, the second prince didn't like this sister very much.
People in the palace were whispering that it was because of Princess Xining that Concubine Sun did not dare to place valuable objects in Guanju Palace...
Cen Xijin pretended to cough a few times. In fact, she didn't like Princess Xianrong either.
If Princess Xining is a bunch of unruly and domineering peppers, then Princess Xianrong is a noble and arrogant white lotus - the key point is that Princess Xianrong is still the little childhood sweetheart of her boyfriend Xiao Ming. She simply cannot tolerate this Cen Xijin.
But what surprised them was that no one, whether it was Princess Xianrong, Princess Xining, or the fifth prince, accepted the invitation.
"You...you are so unpopular." Looking at the table full of delicious food and wine, Cen Xijin suddenly didn't know how to comfort this kid.
It is rare for someone to be generous and want to have fun alone rather than everyone, but no one is willing to give him face!
The second prince stood there for a long time with a sullen face. Finally, he let out a long breath and slowly sat down against the table: "Let Feng'er Cherry and the others come and eat together."
This cold scene is so embarrassing.
Cen Xijin took decisive steps to call for help.
The other side of the Royal Boat.
Concubine Sun looked down at the fifth prince who was lying on the ground and sobbing softly with cold eyes. Princess Xining’s cat was watching quietly in the corner.
"I just know how to cry! I just know how to play! I forgot "Zuo Shi Chun Qiu" and memorized it again and again! You still have the nerve to go out and play!" At the end of the sentence, Concubine Sun touched an inkstone and smashed it. past.
The fine Duan Inkstone hit the fifth prince's heart with a "snap" sound.
The fifth prince covered his heart and cried: "Concubine, I was wrong! Concubine, I was wrong! I will never play again! I will definitely study hard!"
Princess Xining was young after all, so she trembled a little when she saw this scene. Although she often bullied the honest fifth prince, she was not someone who just watched her brother being beaten in silence. She held on to the window frame and screamed: "Mother and concubine! They are all the brothers of the second prince! This matter has nothing to do with my brother!"
"Shut up! Get out!" Concubine Sun pointed at the outside of the boat and cursed fiercely. She didn't bother to care about Xining. To put it bluntly, she was just a princess. No matter how much she taught her, it wouldn't have much effect. .
Concubine Sun is so fierce, and Princess Ren Xining is so cunning and domineering on weekdays. At this moment, she can only sneak out in despair.
Princess Xining bit her mouth, turned around and reluctantly walked out of the boat.
In the last scene, she only saw her brother lying on the ground shivering in the dark-colored old boat under the orange dusk, with tears still hanging on his snow-white face, and his dark eyelashes trembling violently.
"What's wrong, Xining? Why are the circles under her eyes red?" Concubine De gently stroked Princess Xining's soft black head, her light smile was as loving as a mother's.
Princess Xining sniffed and wiped her eyes sheepishly: "Xining has met Concubine De." In the past two years, Concubine De and her mother and concubine have had very close contacts, and the two families of Guanju Palace and Yongchun Palace have close relations. Well, she knows it too.
Concubine De stroked her temples, knelt down and smiled sweetly: "Xining, is your mother-in-law angry again?"
"The mother-in-law is always very strict with her brother." Princess Xining pouted, turning her face to look at the flowing river and the golden sunset, twisting the handkerchief between her fingers.
Concubine De's voice was as soft as a puddle of water: "Your mother-in-law has a bad temper and is strict. She does this for your own good."
Suddenly, Princess Xining raised her head and looked at the smoke-like woman in front of her with complex eyes: "Empress De, isn't Princess Xianrong going to my second brother's place?"
"Well, she won't go, she won't go." Concubine De's smile suddenly became forced.
She took a deep breath, stood up, and never looked at the little girl with complicated eyes in front of her.
In the distance, the setting clouds and solitary swans fly together, and the autumn water is the same color as the sky.
Concubine De gradually clenched her fists, tonight, just tonight!
