Chapter 276 I Give You a Golden Hairpin
After hearing this, Jiujiu looked at the sun outside the window and took another bite of herself.
Is she dreaming?
Thirteenth brother actually said he would send her to school?
Awww, brother Thirteen has never sent her to school.
Thirteenth brother was always busy with his own things, plus he had a lot of schoolwork and was at the marriageable age, so he was unable to take care of himself and had no time to send her to school, and he never sent her to school.
Today...
"What are you standing there for? Get up quickly." The Thirteenth Prince urged.
"oh."
Jiujiu got up, washed, and had breakfast, and then, under everyone's incredulous gaze, she was sent to school by the Thirteenth Prince.
After Jiujiu arrived at the upper study, she wanted to wait for Dijiang as usual, but the Thirteenth Prince did not let her wait. He sent Jiujiu directly into the study and ordered people to watch Jiujiu and not let her come out to see Dijiang.
Jiujiu: Brother Thirteen is so weird!
The Thirteenth Prince: It’s okay to be tired, he has to send Jiujiu to school every day.
In this way, Dijiang didn't see Jiujiu for three or four months.
It seemed that in ten days, Dijiang would leave Xichu and return to the Southern Kingdom, but he still could not see Jiujiu.
Di Jiang looked helplessly at the golden hairpin he had made for Jiujiu with his own hands.
The gold hairpin is made of pure gold. The body of the hairpin is no different from ordinary hairpins, but the tail of the hairpin is very special, with two peony flowers of different sizes carved on it.
Very exquisite and beautiful.
Dijiang looked at it and sighed deeply.
He spent a long time learning from his master to polish this gold hairpin.
He stayed up many nights and spent a lot of effort on it. He thought again and again, hesitated again and again, before he polished out this golden hairpin with peony flower.
But now, he couldn't give it to Jiujiu.
Dijiang was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.
He forced himself to calm down and think carefully about what to do.
After thinking it over, Di Jiang found Fu Xinyao.
In the past two years, the Thirteenth Prince and Fu Xinyao have had a good relationship, and it seems that the two are about to discuss marriage.
If he wants to see Jiujiu again, he must start with Fu Xinyao.
The Thirteenth Prince was causing him so much trouble that he was about to leave and couldn't see the person he wanted to see. So he would also cause trouble for the Thirteenth Prince.
Dijiang went to see Fu Xinyao for seven or eight days, reciting poems and painting.
When the Thirteenth Prince found out, he was so furious that he smashed all the porcelain ornaments in the room, leaving the antique shelves empty.
"What does Dijiang want to do?"
"If you can't get close to my sister, then get close to Xinyao? Xinyao is about the same age as him, and he looks so charming and knows how to please little girls. What if, what if he..."
"What if he kidnapped my sister Xinyao?"
The Thirteenth Prince was furious.
He could no longer look after Jiujiu himself, so he asked someone to help him look after Jiujiu while he went to see Fu Xinyao.
Dijiang seized this opportunity, lured away the people guarding Jiujiu, and found Jiujiu.
As soon as Jiujiu saw Dijiang, she threw herself into his arms and murmured sadly, "Brother Dijiang, you will leave in two days, right?"
Jiujiu has always wanted to see Dijiang, but the Thirteenth Prince would not let her.
Because of this, she had several fights with the Thirteenth Prince.
Emperor Zhaoning and Concubine Jia both came out to try to mediate their fight.
Dijiang patted Jiujiu's back soothingly and nodded, "...yeah."
"Jiujiu can't bear to leave Brother Dijiang."
"But Jiujiu also knows that Brother Dijiang has great ambitions, and Jiujiu cannot stop Brother Dijiang from achieving them."
“Brother Dijiang can only show his skills when he returns to the Southland.”
“…”
Dijiang was silent.
Little girl, how do you understand Brother Dijiang so well?
Dijiang's heart was trembling violently.
Jiujiu nestled in Dijiang's arms and cried for a long time, unwilling to leave. Usually, both of them respected the strict rules between men and women, restrained themselves and followed etiquette, and did not overstep the line.
But today, as we are about to leave, Jiujiu can’t care about anything anymore.
Jiujiu sobbed and said, "Brother Dijiang, you must not forget Jiujiu, okay?" After a pause, she added, "Jiujiu will not forget you either."
"Silly girl." Di Jiang took the initiative to let go of Jiujiu, took out the brocade box from his arms, and stuffed it into Jiujiu's hand.
"This is a gift for you." Dijiang looked at Jiujiu reluctantly and reached out to wipe away her tears. "When we meet again, if you still have Brother Dijiang in your heart, wear it."
Jiujiu wanted to open the brocade box immediately to see what was inside, but Dijiang held her hand.
Dijiang lowered his eyes and said nervously, "Don't open it yet, okay? Wait until Brother Dijiang leaves, then open it and take a look."
Hairpins are usually given to a man’s first wife as a token of love.
This kind of thing cannot be given away casually.
However, Dijiang openly held the hairpin and wanted to give it to Jiujiu.
You are old enough now, you will understand this.
Dijiang was worried that Jiujiu would see the golden hairpin and understand his feelings, and would be angry and throw the hairpin and the brocade box on his face, and would also tell him that he was nothing and why he wanted to have the wrong person. How could he touch her? She was a princess, but he was nothing.
If he didn't see any rejection, he could assume that Jiujiu accepted the hairpin and didn't refuse.
Dijiang comforted himself in this way.
Jiujiu did not open the brocade box either. She put it away and said to Dijiang, "Brother Dijiang, when you return to the Southern Kingdom, the Prime Minister of the Southern Kingdom, Dugu Tianxin, is your grandfather."
"But neither you nor he knows this."
"You can look into this matter to get his support and help, so that your future path can be smoother."
"Just check with your mother, and you will definitely gain something."
[In the book, Dugu Tianxin fought with his brother Dijiang for many years. At the end, when he was about to die, he realized that his brother Dijiang was his favorite grandson.]
[He loves the children of women's children the most.]
[Love for the house and his dog, so naturally he is also his favorite grandson. 】
Jiujiu had thought about this matter a long time ago. When Dijiang left, she would tell him that now was a good time.
Fortunately I didn't miss it.
"Dugu Tianxin?"
When Di Jiang thought of this man, he clenched his fists in anger. Because he used too much force, his joints turned white and his bones crackled.
For several years, Dugu Tianxin's family has been supporting Crown Prince Di Chaoyang and trampling on him.
He was originally sent to Western Chu as a hostage, and Dugu Tianxin was the one who took the main responsibility.
But now, Jiujiu told him that Dugu Tianxin was his grandfather?
Jiujiu would not lie about such a big thing.
It should be true.
As for how Jiujiu knew all this.
It should be related to the fact that she was often by Emperor Zhaoning's side and heard secret news.
Dijiang did not doubt Jiujiu's words, but he had mixed feelings.
He didn't know whether to say that he had suffered a heavy blow. Or that there was always light at the end of the tunnel. After he returned to the South Country, he would get a lot of help. He was one step closer to the throne, and there would be someone behind him.
