Chapter 1194: Decorated with lights and full of joy
Bai Shuqing naturally knew that when he was in the enclosure, he couldn't help but look at King Xiao of Northern Qi.
"Sister Qin, don't talk nonsense." Bai Shuqing tried hard to suppress her guilty conscience and said with her chin held high: "I was looking at Princess Fude at first, and then I was looking at Dabai and those cranes!"
When the girls heard Bai Shuqing say this, although they were suspicious, they did not ask any more questions.
After all, Bai Shuqing is the great-niece of the Empress Dowager.
They didn't want to be enemies with Bai Shuqing.
Otherwise, we wouldn't be sitting together drinking tea.
If Bai Shuqing had not provoked Liu Susu first, Liu Susu would not have provoked Bai Shuqing.
"Speaking of which, although this bear is quite scary, it's also quite lovable." A girl leaned against the window, looking at Dabai not far away, and said with some envy, "I'd like to shake hands with it, too."
"Sister Zhang is very brave, but I wouldn't dare to do that."
"Why should I be afraid of this? This bear is smart anyway, and it won't bite..."
"That's hard to say..."
Several girls looked at Dabai and started chattering.
Although, his eyes always glanced at Xuanyuan Jin inadvertently.
Bai Shuqing breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the topic had changed.
But in the end I was still uneasy.
I originally wanted to go down and say hello to Tang Bao, but I don’t know what I thought of, my eyes darkened, and I gave up.
She didn't know that in the private room next door, King Xiao of Northern Qi was sitting leisurely at the table, listening to the chattering of the girls next door, while looking at the scene on the street through the half-open window with raised eyebrows.
Hake looked a little nervous. He lowered his voice and asked, "Prince, do you really want to marry the young doctor?"
Prince Xiao glanced at Hake and said, "When have I ever lied?"
Hake: “…”
He rubbed his hands, his expression a little conflicted.
"But, Your Highness, the young doctor doesn't like you at all," Huck said stubbornly. "And the Third Prince is so nervous about the young doctor, like a wolf guarding a rabbit. Maybe he wants to fatten him up so he can take him back to his lair."
He was grateful to Tang Bao for treating his illness, and he extremely did not want Tang Bao and his prince to become enemies.
"The little girl is still young, how can she talk about likes and dislikes? Can I let the person I like run away? The third prince is just a young boy, can he really compete with me?" Prince Xiao was very calm.
Although I feel a little uncomfortable.
There is also a kind of vague lack of confidence that we try hard to ignore.
However, when he thought of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Picture and the five thousand war horses, that little bit of insecurity disappeared.
He just didn't believe that Dayan would give up these things for a little girl!
With the betrothal gifts he promised, Dayan would definitely agree even if he wanted to marry a princess, let alone a princess.
After hearing what Prince Xiao said, Ha Ke widened his eyes and shouted, "Prince, could it be that you really have fallen in love with such a young girl?"
The way Huck looked at Prince Xiao became a little strange.
It looked like he was looking at a pervert.
Prince Xiao's expression froze and he glared at Hake.
"How could this prince possibly like such a child? This prince married her for Northern Qi, for the sake of the marriage between the two countries!"
Hake breathed a sigh of relief, patted his chest, and said with a look of relief: "That's good. If it were up to me, you would marry the girl from the Bai family if the two countries were to form a marriage alliance."
When Huck said this, he pouted at the person next door and chuckled.
He added, "I noticed that when the girl was in the enclosure, she kept stealing glances at you. It was obvious that she had a crush on you."
"What's more, you hugged the girl that day in Prince Rong's mansion, so you should be responsible."
Prince Rong followed Huck's gaze and glanced towards the next room with a thoughtful expression.
Tang Bao fed Xuanyuan Jin some medicine and said in a sweet voice, "Brother, go ahead and do your work. I'll get my things and go back to Tianlong Temple. I'll probably stay there for the next few days. Don't worry about me, brother."
The re-enactment of the Witchcraft Case was what the little brother had been looking forward to for many years.
It is extremely important to my little brother.
I'm afraid that the little brother will be busy with this matter in the days to come.
Tang Bao felt that she couldn't help, but at least she couldn't hold her little brother back.
Xuanyuan Jin looked at the sensible look of the little girl, and his heart seemed to be warmed by the sunshine.
"I'll be back soon. You wait for me in the Princess's Mansion. I'll send you back to Tianlong Temple and then I'll take care of other things." Xuanyuan Jin said.
Nothing is more important than the little girl's safety.
King Xiao of Northern Qi seemed bold and uninhibited, but he was actually cunning.
Now that he has set his eyes on the little girl, he will not give up easily until he achieves his goal.
Although the two sides have not yet fallen out, there is no guarantee that they will use some despicable means.
Xuanyuan Jin didn't dare to gamble, nor could he afford to gamble.
When Tang Bao heard Xuanyuan Jin say this, she did not insist.
At the same time, he did not ask Xuanyuan Jin why he wanted to go to the general's mansion.
However, she could sense that the little brother was in a low mood.
Xuanyuan Jin went to the general's mansion, but the brothers Yang Wei and Yang Wu were not there.
When the first and second wives of the Yang family heard that Xuanyuan Jin had arrived, they immediately invited him in.
After some greetings, Xuanyuan Jin directly stated his purpose.
"Meet the eldest aunt?" The eldest lady asked in surprise.
Xuanyuan Jin nodded and said, "It's been a long time since I've paid my respects to Aunt. Now that the Emperor has ordered the re-investigation of the Witchcraft Case, Aunt must be very happy. This matter has probably weighed on Aunt's mind for years."
The Second Madam sighed, "That's right. Eldest Aunt has been blaming herself all these years. Now that the Empress is about to be vindicated, Eldest Aunt can finally put her worries to rest."
The second wife said this, but she was a little puzzled in her heart.
Because after she and the eldest lady returned home, the first thing they did was to tell Yang Ning about this great news.
However, after hearing this, Yang Ning did not seem as happy as she had expected.
The expression seemed to contain excitement and mockery... In short, the Second Madam felt something was strange.
Xuanyuan Jin declined the company of the first and second wives, and only asked the first wife to send a nanny to take him to the nunnery where Yang Ning was practicing.
In the nunnery, the incense was curling up, and the kind-looking Bodhisattva seemed to have an unclear face in the midst of the incense.
The sound of the wooden fish, "knock knock...", was sometimes loud and sometimes soft, and a bit chaotic.
"The sound of my aunt's wooden fish lacks a sense of Zen and tranquility." Xuanyuan Jin said slowly.
The sound of the wooden fish paused, and Yang Ning, who was kneeling on the mat, suddenly stiffened his back.
"Jin'er is here." Yang Ning slowly turned around and looked at Xuanyuan Jin.
Xuanyuan bowed respectfully.
"Hello, auntie. It's been a while since I've come to pay my respects to you. Please forgive me."
Yang Ning shook his head, stood up, put the wooden fish on the altar, reached out to light a few incense sticks, and handed them to Xuanyuan Jin.
"Since you are here, let's burn some incense to the Buddha." Yang Ning said.
Xuanyuan Jin took the incense, bowed a few times, and inserted the incense into the incense burner.
Then, he looked at Yang Ning.
"Aunt, Jin'er has a few things to ask you." Xuanyuan Jin said.
Yang Ning's face showed an expression of understanding. He picked up the wooden fish and knelt down on the mat again.
"Okay, ask ahead." Yang Ning said softly, her eyes slightly closed.
"Why did my aunt become disabled in her legs?" Xuanyuan Jin asked.
Yang Ning: “…”
It was not until Xuanyuan Jin had left for a long time that the sound of the wooden fish in the nunnery was heard again.
It's just that it's becoming more and more light and heavy, and chaotic.
The princess's mansion was decorated with lights and was filled with joy.
As soon as Tang Bao entered the door, he heard his father's hearty laughter.
