The little daughter-in-law of the palace

Chapter 464
After the Mid-Autumn Festival, Emperor Mingde was going to go hunting in the Western Mountains, and Cheng Xi and Cheng Yu both went.

Cheng Xi honestly sat in the palace all morning, and had nothing to do in the afternoon, so he returned to the palace early.

Ningzhu is learning from female red in the embroidery room.

Cheng Xi invited the best female teacher for the little girl. She read and read in the morning, and learned to play musical instruments in the afternoon. Hong, but the study time is not long every day, lest the little girl get tired.

Cheng Xi first went back to his yard and changed into his regular clothes, then wandered to the embroidery room like a stroll in the courtyard, hid behind the door and window and looked in, and saw Ningzhu sitting sideways to him, embroidering a handkerchief seriously with her head down, her fair little face Round and cute, Cheng Xi couldn't help laughing, and gestured towards the teacher who was looking over.

The teaching nun asked the cousin girl to continue practicing, and she found an excuse to retreat.

Ningzhu has been studying for more than half a year and has become a female celebrity. Today, she feels that she embroiders very well, so she is very focused. She plans to show off her most proud embroidery work in front of her sister in a few days, lest her sister always say that she knows Play.

As if her sister had really praised her, the corners of Ningzhu's lips curled up, not noticing that there was an extra person behind her.

Cheng Xi moved his eyes from the corner of the little girl's mouth to the handkerchief, and saw that it was embroidered with a pair of colorful butterflies playing on the peony flowers, and then looked at the corner of the little girl's upturned mouth, and his thoughts changed.Things like mandarin ducks and butterflies are all embroidered by girls who have a sweetheart. Could it be that Ningzhu is in love?

Who do you like?

She usually goes to the Yunyang Hou's Mansion the most. Before Qi Zhi was called by Chu Qing, the maid he sent to protect her reported that the only man that the little girl really came into contact with was Ah Xun, who was only four years old.

Could it be sent to him?
Cheng Xi thought about it carefully, and found that this possibility is still very big. In the previous life, the two of them spent too little time together, and she didn't know him well enough. In this life, they have been together day and night, so the little girl must like him.

Happy in his heart, Cheng Xi slowly leaned over and blew into the little girl's thin white earlobe, "Who do you miss?"

The warm breath was blowing on the face, and the hoarse voice also had a disturbing taste, but unfortunately Ningzhu didn't feel it, she was only taken aback by him, just as she was about to drop the needle, the needle stuck When it entered the fingertips, blood beads gushed out instantly, staining a small piece of snow-white silk red.

Ningzhu gasped in pain, but looking at the blood stain that seemed to be left by a mosquito that had been crushed to death, Ningzhu became even angrier, pouted and complained to the man next to her who snatched her hand, "Why are you scaring me again? "

"No, no, I won't scare you again!" Cheng Xi was so distressed, he took out a handkerchief to cover her light-white fingers, and looked at her guiltily, "Does it hurt?"

It was very painful when I was pierced, but now the pain has passed, Ningzhu glared at him, and put the dirty handkerchief in front of his eyes, "Look, there is a good extra piece of blood, there is still a blank place, There is no way to fix it, I have been working for nothing for the past two days!"

After two years, Cheng Xi treated her no worse than her elder sister, and Ning Zhu also sincerely regarded him as her elder brother, and she was not polite when talking to him.

Cheng Xi glanced at the handkerchief, and said indifferently: "It's okay, it's very pretty, you can embroider it, I'll still use it."

Ningzhu looked at him suspiciously, and after a while she realized that her eyes became a little weirder, "Who said I was going to send you off? I embroidered this for my sister."

Talking about touching the blood-stained place of the veil, I felt so distressed, I felt an idea, and said with a smile: "By the way, I will cut off the edge and make a small veil for Ah Xun, or it will be a waste of time." Pity."

"No, I want this handkerchief." Cheng Xi was disappointed because the handkerchief was not given to him, but after hearing that she gave up her sister, she thought of Ah Xun, Ying Ting's eyebrows frowned, "Ah Ning, later Today, I will accompany my father to go hunting in the Western Mountains, so you can give me this handkerchief, and I will save it to wipe my sweat."

Ningzhu was stunned, looked at him and asked, "Going to Xishan? When will you be back?"

There was reluctance in her eyes, Cheng Xi liked it, touched the little girl's head and said, "Come back after the Double Ninth Festival, I will take you to the Marquis Mansion tomorrow, and pick you up right away when you come back, the maple leaves over there are beautiful, I'll find them Look for it, if there is a red one, bring it back and give it to you."

He has important things to arrange this time, so he can't take her with him.

Ningzhu was really reluctant, lowered her head, touched the handkerchief and said, "This one is dirty, I will embroider it again for my cousin."

"No, I want this." Cheng Xi took the little girl's hand and squeezed it.

Ningzhu is ignorant about the relationship between men and women, and feels that it is not good for him to pinch his hands like this, and it is not suitable for brothers and sisters, but when she met the man's gentle phoenix eyes, she thought that they would be separated soon, so she didn't shrink back.He has always regarded her as his younger sister, and he treats her better than Meng Xianxian's own cousin. What is she so taboo about?

The next day, Ningzhu went to Chu's house, and gave the embroidered butterfly handkerchief to Cheng Xi before parting.

But bad news came in September, an assassin assassinated the emperor, the fourth prince Shou Wang rescued him and died, Cheng Xi and Cheng Yu were also seriously injured.

Hanzhu and Ningzhu suddenly panicked, her sister hurried to Prince Jing's Mansion, and Ningzhu rushed back to Prince Ding's Mansion crying.

"Big brother..." Looking at the pale man on the bed, tears streamed down his face, and he called out the old title that he would only call when he was in a hurry.

"It's okay, Ningzhu won't cry." Cheng Xi leaned against the head of the bed, raised his hand to help the little girl wipe away her tears, the two arrow wounds on her chest and thighs hurt badly, but she was very proud of herself.

In his previous life, King Shou arranged for this assassination, which almost cost Cheng Yu's life, and also won the trust of his father because of his meritorious escort.In this life, he used all his tricks, planted a few eyeliners in, and directly killed King Shou, so as not to cause trouble for him in the future.His and Cheng Yu's injuries were for the emperor to see, everything went according to Shou Wang's original plan, but Shou Wang was unlucky, and his subordinates "missed the shot" really killed him.

As for the injury on his leg, Cheng Xi has his own uses.
