Cute Wife Divorce Husband: Black-bellied Prince and Little Dumb Concubine

Chapter 23 Fifth Prince Xiao Ziyuan
Ning gently returned to the pavilion, sat by the Eight Immortals table, slapped the table hard, and was sullen.Qingchuan didn't dare to ask more questions.

After a while, the palace people outside saluted and said: "My lord Jin'an!"

Ning gently heard the footsteps of King Jin entering, but turned her face away to ignore him, playing with the hairpin given to her by the empress.

King Jin coughed slightly, "Princess, is the morning going well?"

Hearing this, she thought to herself: It's really good to pretend, you have two faces in the blink of an eye.So she just lowered her head and fiddled with herself, but ignored it.

Seeing that she was ignoring her, Xiao Zijun didn't say a word, he looked around, lifted his robe and sat down.At this time, a maid began to serve refreshments.

Xiao Zijun squeezed a snack in his mouth, and said in a cold tone, "Everything has a cause and an effect. This time, if you stay in the pavilion honestly, you won't come out like that."

Although he doesn't know everything, he does know King Song's temperament, he likes to be flirtatious everywhere, but the second child really can't offend him openly, he can only show respect on the surface, and the more respectful he is, he dare not.

Wei Qing didn't understand this level, she gritted her teeth angrily when she heard the words, turned her face to stare at Xiao Zijun, and signed in sign language, "I know that you vent your anger through one nostril!"

She took the sweet-scented osmanthus cake angrily, and ate it, but unexpectedly choked again.

King Jin's face was slightly condensed. As a princess, he knew how to eat from morning till now.I don't know what fools were born at the banquet.

Gently found the tea root on the table to moisten it, and smiled embarrassedly.

Jin Wang straightened up, looked at her smiling face, and said lightly: "In the future, there will be many opportunities for palace banquets, and the father, mother, and concubine will be there. You must maintain the rules and get acquainted with the royal family when the time comes." Darling, don't be reckless like today again."

Before she could answer, King Jin had already walked away.

Ning Qingqing was still angry in her heart, when she suddenly heard a rumor from outside: "His Royal Highness is here——"

Ning was slightly stunned, fifth prince?Is it Xiao Ziyuan who is good at writing?She had heard that he had a good relationship with King Jin, but she had never seen him, so she was curious, so she followed him out.

"Third brother, I never thought you would be here."

A youthful voice as clear and moist as water, the voice line is not yet steady.

Then, a young man in cloud-colored white clothes walked in with a smile.

There was a faint smile on the face as white as jade, as gentle as the wind, although she was walking, she was naturally quiet and indifferent.

Different from Su Changqing's elegant demeanor, the master's elegant temperament has some introverted wisdom that is not obvious; the gentleness of the fifth prince may be young, with a thin body, and even more cold and weak, but he is unique in his innate nobility.

She became obsessed at a young age, she thought that a person like Master was unique in the world, she never thought that seeing this Fifth Prince today, she would feel that he was a beautiful jade from the fairy pond, but she would rather gently fall into a quagmire of sand and stones.

After careful examination, under the gentle demeanor, it is still just a handsome and childish face of a boy.Xiao Zi is a year younger than the Prince, less than eighteen years old, and his cheerful personality is quite different from the Prince's.

The boy was a little embarrassed to be stared at by the beauty in front of him, and this beauty was probably his third sister-in-law.His fair face was a little rosy.

Wei Wei feels that this person is not a bit worldly, so he can't help but laugh.

King Jin turned his head, only to see Ning Qingwei standing behind at some point, especially seeing her smirk, her expression suddenly sank.

Xiao Ziyuan cupped his hands calmly, lowered his head slightly, and said calmly, "This must be Ziyuan's sister-in-law."

King Jin greeted him, "Chenshi heard that you are coming back today, and you are going to look for your fifth younger brother."

The tone of the words is familiar at first sight.

Xiao Zijun looked at Ning Qingqing again, and said gently: "Princess, come here to see His Highness Fifth."

Ning slightly restrained her nymphomaniac smile, and then came over and saluted respectfully.

"Third sister-in-law is being polite. It's the first time for the fifth son to meet his sister-in-law, and he's a little hasty."

Xiao Ziyuan smiled lightly, the smile on his lips was clean and comfortable, and looked like the clouds rolling and relaxing in the sky.

Ning Qingqing didn't know that the fifth prince was not in Beijing for the last big wedding, and he returned to Suzhou and Hangzhou to pay homage to his mother.

The birth mother of the fifth prince was originally a talented woman from Qiantang in the Eastern Wu Dynasty. She came from a humble background. After meeting Emperor Qi, she gave birth to the prince. Unfortunately, Emperor Xiao Yan didn't know about it. They didn't meet until the emperor revisited the old place.

Xiao Yan felt guilty, but unexpectedly she was very arrogant and refused to enter the palace as a concubine.The emperor Nianqing built a mansion for her on the spot, and did not announce her identity. Unfortunately, the talented girl died of illness within two years, leaving only eight-year-old Xiao Ziyuan behind.

The fifth prince had no choice but to be eloquent and literary in his life, and he was good at painting and calligraphy. He really inherited his mother's talents.

Although he is young, he does not have the dryness of a boy of the same age.Because Xiao Zijun always took care of his fifth younger brother when he was in the palace, so the two have a very strong relationship.

"Princess, serve tea to Fifth Brother—"

When Xiao Ziyuan picked up the tea, Ning Weiwei was a little absent-minded, shook his hand slightly, two drops of tea dripped out and wet his sleeves, the Fifth Prince showed concern on his indifferent face: "Is it all right? Third sister-in-law—"

Dazed slightly, he looked sideways and saw King Jin's face sinking, he only shook his head at Xiao Ziyuan, his appearance restrained, he got up and stood aside.

It was Xiao Zijun who spoke: "Fifth Brother and I have something to say, Princess, let's rest for a while." Ning bit his lip lightly, and had no choice but to back down.

"Third Brother's Xiuwen Pavilion has not been here for a long time, and now, taking this opportunity, Fifth Brother will come to rejoice..."

"Why don't you stay in Xiuwen Pavilion today, you and I, brothers, have a drink and tell us about your experiences in the south..."

There were faint jokes, and the close relationship between the two was self-evident.

In the palace, there has always been a saying that King Jin is the best at managing connections, and that King Jin's marriage to the second daughter of Marquis Ning not only wins over Marquis Ning, but also befriends the crown prince.It's just that Ning Qingwei thinks that's not the case, how can this cold-faced king be popular?
Ning Weiwei thinks that the King of Jin loves to put on airs the most, and he obviously hates her very much, but in order to befriend the prince, he uses her as a backing, which is really hateful.

After the Fifth Prince left, she couldn't help expressing her doubts, "Your Highness the Fifth Prince seems to be close to the prince, but you two are quite different inside and out. It's really strange!"

King Jin just glanced at her coldly and ignored her.

What a big deal!Ning sat there with a slight twist, a little bored.

After a while, Xiao Zijun finally said: "Princess, you go back to the palace with the servants first, I have something to do and I will come back later."

On the palace road, Xiao Zijun looked at her figure getting into the sedan chair, and lost his mind for a moment.The eyes, which were always deep, became clearer and clearer like the sky after the autumn rain.

The corner of his lips moved slightly, as if mocking himself.

*
Shuhua Palace, Concubine Shu is drinking.

"Mother Concubine, are you looking for Erchen?" Xiao Zijun bowed to Concubine Shu.

"Ah Jun, are you tired?" Concubine Shu looked at King Jin gently, "Sit down quickly."

Soon the girls served nourishing health soup to King Jin.

King Jin accepted it, only to hear Concubine Shu say: "Concubine Mother's drink is good, you should have a cup too."
