The sound of gentle footsteps sounded at the bow of the boat. Guo Baoyan nervously grabbed the handkerchief, got up before the person came, and walked towards the door and complained, "Why did my sister come so late? I've been waiting for you for a while. That stinky girl from Xiu'er said she was going outside to greet you, and I don't know where she went."

Song Mingde reached out his hand that wanted to open the curtain and stopped. He didn't see anyone. Just hearing the sound, his body felt itchy.

My cousin Ji Zhao told him that a girl wanted to marry into the Marquis’s house as the prince’s wife, but he looked down on her and asked him if she was interested in taking a concubine. If she was interested, she would come and take a look. If the person was satisfied, she would be as good as the girl’s wish. If the girl was ugly inside, she would turn around and leave.

Although Song Mingde lives in Cangzhou and does not have the power or power at Ji Zhao's family, he also has two uncles. There are a bunch of women in the backyard who make plans all day long. He is very clear about these methods and understands the girl's plan after a little thought. Anyway, he is idle and he can join in the fun. As my cousin said, if he likes her, it is better to take her home as a concubine and become a concubine. Besides, if he dares to make a decision on Ji Zhao, his background should not be too bad. After all, even if a small girl is designed, the Ji family will only take concubines but not marry her or even just rely on the debt, and the woman's family will not dare to make trouble at home.

After carefully recalling the contents of the letter, Song Mingde coughed softly and whispered: "Mr. Ji is late, don't be angry, Baozhu." He looked back and glanced at the shore, picked up the curtain and walked in.

Guo Baoyan was startled and looked at the man quickly, panicked and retreated: "Who are you? How do you know Baozhu's name? Why do you come here?" He was very satisfied with the man's appearance. He could not compare with Zhao Chen, but he could be considered tall and handsome.

Song Mingde was also surprised and stared at the girl opposite in surprise and stunning, "You... I am Ji Zhao, the Crown Prince of the Marquis of Zhongyi, and Baozhu asked me to come here. Why are you here?"

The appreciation in the man's eyes was obvious, but Guo Baoyan was calm, but there was a look of despair on his face. After a while, he said: "Baozhu, Baozhu, I didn't expect my sister to be such a person! She told me that she hates you very much, but why did she ask the prince to come out and deceive me too, I..."

Before he finished speaking, his body suddenly shook, and his hands held his forehead and fell forward.

Of course, Song Mingde would not let the beauty fall to the ground, and caught the person in time, tightened his slender waist with both hands: "What's wrong with you, girl?"

"Don't touch me!" Guo Baoyan pushed him angrily, but his hands were light and weak, and it was clearly a drugged. Song Mingde didn't expect that this girl could do this to marry Ji Zhao, but the beauty was hugging her. He was so happy to pick up this cheapness and pretended to care that she helped the person to the other side of the couch, "What's wrong with you, girl?"

Guo Baoyan noticed the man's intention and thought that as her mother said, men were all bad embryos. She deliberately let the man take advantage of him, then pulled out his hairpin and pressed him back, stood up on the couch and cried to the stern of the boat: "I will not live anymore, my sister framed me like this..."

She pretended to be the same as real, and Song Mingde was willing to play with her, and chased her and promised, "Don't worry, girl, I admire Baozhu for her intention to marry her, but now I realize that she is a scorpion-like heart, which has caused the girl to suffer this humiliation. Don't worry, Ji will send the girl back to the house and will come to propose marriage in person tomorrow!" He asked for someone first, but the girl could not listen to him when she turned around. Since she called Guo Baozhu as her sister, she should also be a girl from the Guo family. Unfortunately, he didn't know what the situation of the Guo family was. He didn't know what official position the father of the Guo family was.

Guo Baoyan just wanted to lure the man to care about her, but she didn't plan to lose her body on the boat. She avoided the man's hand that came out. She stood beside the boat and cried and begged: "Criminal Ji, this is because my sister hates me. My sister accidentally implicated the prince in an accident, and asked the prince to leave quietly. In that way, I would just fall into the water and be able to keep a reputation after death."

After saying that, he jumped into the river!

Since the man is moved, he will probably go into the water to save her. At that time, the people arranged by his mother will coax her together, and Ji Zhao will marry her.

Song Mingde was stunned.

He had heard of several scenes of falling into the water to save people, but this winter...

Forget it, it’s worth it to earn a beautiful concubine after being frozen back!

Song Mingde jumped down and grabbed Guo Baoyan to swim to the shore. Although Guo Baoyan expected that the man would probably go into the water to save her, he was really afraid at this time. He was so cold that he trembled all over, but he did not forget to pretend to struggle: "The prince let me go and let me die!"

"Shut up!" Song Mingde roared, just wanting to get ashore as soon as possible.

Guo Baoyan cried and saw that the maids arranged by his mother on the shore had arrived. He hurriedly begged: "The prince's grace of saving his life, Baoyan is unforgettable. It's just related to family scandals. I also asked the prince to make Baoyan a full time. If someone asked you how I was together later, the prince, the prince said that he happened to pass by the bridge? Otherwise, the truth will be passed by, my reputation will be over, and my sister... She is just playing and ignorant..."

Guo Baozhu hid behind the crowd, and the river was dark again, and she couldn't see who the girl fell into the water. However, when Guo Er's wife Xu and her maid squeezed into the crowd watching the fun, she instantly understood.

The person who wrote the letter was Guo Baoyan. She heard about her and Ji Zhao from somewhere and wanted to snatch the marriage.

Guo Baozhu couldn't believe it.

She has not liked Guo Baoyan since she was a child. The two of them have different tempers and can't play with each other. However, they have never had too many awkward things, just don't like to pay attention to her. I don't expect that Guo Baoyan actually acted in such a play tonight. If that person is really Ji Zhao, Guo Baoyan has succeeded.

"Baozhu, have you offended her?" After watching the lively trip, Ji Zhao led Guo Baozhu, who was a little confused, to the street with fewer pedestrians on the other side, and asked her softly. He didn't know Mrs. Guo Er, but the maid brought by Xu in the crowd just now was as if he was afraid that others would not know about it, so he understood.

Guo Baozhu's hand has been held by him, and now she is used to it, and her mind is still on Guo Baoyan, "No..."

Ji Zhao sneered: "Then you have to be careful. She dares to use it like this even if you haven't offended her. You may even rob your marriage. You may say something else on the boat and frame you for accusing you. If you go back, you will immediately explain it to your father and brother and ask them to help you stand out. This note is evidence. But don't worry, she will lose a lot of rice if she steals chickens and will go to Cangzhou to be a concubine in two days."

Guo Baozhu slowly stopped, picked up the note in her hand and looked at it. She couldn't see clearly. She put it on the cuff first, took two steps back to look at Ji Zhao, "Your cousin is married?"

Ji Zhao nodded, "Yes, if he didn't get married, I won't let him come. I dare to design me in your name. These two charges add up, making her a concubine will be a cheap one!" He was full of arrogant and gangster.

Guo Baozhu stared at him without saying a word.

Ji Zhao proudly leaned over: "How about Baozhu, I helped you teach the bad guys a lesson. Isn't it very powerful?"

"Whoever teaches you a lesson? Even if you don't take action tonight, I will show her good looks!" Guo Baoyan suffered on his own. Guo Baozhu was not so angry when she learned the fate she was going to face. But she didn't expect that Ji Zhao looked at her timid and incompetent, and her head was quite good. Not only did she not be fooled, she also took the tricks to retaliate against the villain.

"She wants to steal me from you, how can I not take action?" Guo Baozhu hid far away, Ji Zhao stuck on it, skillfully grabbed Guo Baozhu's small hand and ran into the alley, and said quickly before Guo Baozhu hit someone: "Baozhu, you didn't know what I wanted when I proposed to marry you last time. I will tell you tonight, I really like you, okay if you marry me? Don't worry, as long as you marry me, I will listen to you everything after the marriage, and I won't fight back if you hit me and scold me!"

"No marriage!" Knowing that he was not as strong as Ji Zhao, Guo Baozhu did not struggle in vain and leaned against the wall and said angrily.

"Why don't you marry?" Ji Zhao leaned against her side and stared at her eyes and asked, "You see, she wants to steal me, which means I'm not too bad, right? Baozhu, don't irritate me on purpose, I know you like me a little too." He said softly, holding Guo Baozhu's hand with both hands, touching and pinching.

Guo Baozhu's face was hot, she touched him a few times, then took Ji Zhao's mind and suddenly pulled his hand back, turned around and ran to the entrance of the alley, and ran for a distance before turning back and laughing: "I like you a little, but you are so old and don't have any skills, so I don't like you. Aren't you working under my aunt? When you make a contribution, I will promise to marry you!"

Ji Zhao stood there blankly, and after he completely recalled the smell, he shouted anxiously: "I'll send you home!"

"No, be careful that my brother will break your legs when he sees it!"

The girl's cheerful voice came clearly from the crowd.

Wangzhuxuan.

When Zhao Chen came in, Aji was still coaxing his daughter. Zhao Chen was a little surprised and stood in front of the edge of the kang and looked at his daughter: "Why haven't you been asleep yet?"

Cancan grabbed the fingers that his father reached out and kicked happily.

Aji smiled bitterly: "I don't know either. She doesn't sleep even after eating. She is very energetic today. How about it? Have you found the pearl?"

Zhao Chen went into the house after washing up. Hearing this, he went to turn off the lights on the ground, leaving only the fox lamp above his head illuminated. He took his daughter and coaxed him, "I found it, I was scolded by his brother, and I was frowning. Aji, you didn't tell my mother about the collapse of the lamp building, right?"

Aji shook her head, "No, I'm worried if I say it... We ran fast and it's okay. I heard that many people seemed to have killed them, and the house was burned. Such a thing happened in a good life, it's really..." Because I was also in the middle of the incident, I couldn't help but feel scared when I think back, and I even more sympathetic to those who couldn't come out. Among them, would there be women who came out to enjoy the lanterns with her husband, and there was a newborn daughter waiting for her parents to go home?

Looking at her well-behaved and cute daughter, Aju kissed her with red eyes.

Zhao Chen was silent.

"Go to sleep, give me Cancan, I see she seems to be sleepy." My daughter yawned a little, and Aji felt soft. After getting into the quilt, she took her back to her arms. "I'll be sleepy after I hugged you for a while. It must be because I didn't want to sleep if I didn't see my dad before. We Cancan is really smart. You know you're worried about Dad at such a young age."

Her voice was so light that it could not be more light. Cancan blinked his eyes a few times and slowly fell asleep.

Zhao Chen stood up and turned off the light above his head, lay back beside Aji, hesitated for a while, and still spoke: "Aji, I guess, someone deliberately knocked down the lamp building."

Aji's body stiffened and she waited nervously for the man to continue talking.

Zhao Chen hugged her tightly, pressing her chin against her head and said, "Do you remember the King Rui we met when we ran out? In fact, he snatched Azhu from me. I was suspicious at that time, but I was not sure, just thinking it was a coincidence. Later, Zijing told me that Azhu Baozhu and his friends went to the wood carving shop to buy gifts before Cancan, and King Rui also went, and they deliberately approached Azhu..."

"You mean, tonight, King Rui deliberately downed the Lantern Tower for A Zhu?" Aji couldn't believe it, "Why is King Rui..."

"In order to make Azhu fall in love with him, the hero saves the beauty at first sight." Zhao Chen sneered, "Aji, you don't understand. Men have many ways to make women fall in love with him. King Rui has seen countless beauties. No matter how beautiful Azhu is, it is not worth his troubles. The princes are not for love. People who are impulsive unless they want to get something through Azhu. King Rui takes Azhu and becomes relatives with the Zhao family. You can guess the benefits. But King Rui dare not say directly that he wants Azhu, because he is afraid that the emperor will see his motive. If he can make Azhu fall in love with him, and then slowly induce Azhu to enter the royal palace, things will be different."

Aji felt chill all over.

She believed in Zhao Chen, and also believed that her sister was not so beautiful that a prince moved her sincerity. She was just afraid that her sister would be foolish.

Does your sister like King Rui?

Aji didn't know that her sister had never mentioned the wood carving shop to her sister!

"Tomorrow, tomorrow is the fifteenth day. I will go home the day after tomorrow. I will tell Azhu clearly that she will not cause trouble." Aji pretended to be calm and said, turning his head, crawling into the quilt and crying silently.

If the sister is moved, she is stupid, but she is wronged for her. She is only thirteen or fourteen years old and does not understand the complexity outside at all, let alone the prince and grandson who are determined to be the throne. If the sister causes trouble, she will be implicated in the Zhao family, but if it is not the Zhao family, the dignified King Rui would not have targeted her sister.

"Aji, you think too much. Zijing and I have no intention of complaining about Azhu at all." Zhao Chen turned the person who cried back and bit her unhappily, "When this happens, you will treat me as an outsider. I'll marry you. Then whether it's Azhu or Xiaojiu, I will be my biological younger brother and sister. They are all family members. Can you stop thinking about it?"

Aji didn't say anything. After the matter was revealed, she was afraid that her sister would never dare to go out to meet people again. Zhao Chen and Guo Zijing were both men, so how could she know the little girl's thoughts?

Zhao Chen sighed helplessly, wiping his wife's tears and said, "You don't need to tell Azhu. I tell you that you are careful when going out with Azhu in the future. As long as we no longer give King Rui the chance to meet Azhu, Azhu will forget him in a while. You are her sister, how can she get rid of her mind? You know best. My brother-in-law, just protect you. Don't worry, King Rui will soon have no intention of pleasing Azhu."

The emperor was young and strong, and he never thought of standing in the prince too early, but King Rui wanted to bully his wife's sister, so he didn't mind causing him some trouble.hf();
