After Being Kidnapped by the Crown Prince

Mingzhu was stunned when she was asked, the hand she held on her waist increased her strength, and the man’s clear voice fell on top of her head, "Let’s listen."

Mingzhu whispered softly, and she had no confidence when she lied, "I miss my sister at home a little bit."

Standing in the dark, Zhao Zhi's face was like a transparent white jade. He whispered, "Isn't your relationship with your sisters in your family bad?"

The voice was soft, and his expression was gentle when he spoke, but the words that came out of his mouth were somewhat sharp.

Mingzhu didn't expect him to say such a sentence, and the tone was the same as usual, but it may be that she was fragile and hypocritical, and she always felt a little bit of ridicule.

What Zhao Shi said is not all facts. The sisters who were born out of her do not really wait to see her, but the relationship between her and her sister-in-law is not bad. She often gathers together to embroider purses. She sneaks out to meet Wei Chiyu privately, and her two younger sisters will cover her up.

Mingzhu said with a cheeky: "His Royal Highness may have some misunderstanding. I have a very good relationship with several sisters and sisters."

Zhao Shi naturally didn't believe it. He had checked her situation at home earlier, but she had never heard of any sisters who were particularly close to her at home.

Zhao Zhi stayed silent for a long time. Mingzhu was panicked and didn't want to miss a good time. She bit her lower lip. When she lied, her ears and cheeks turned red. , Your Highness, give me a convenience, let me go back and have a look."

Zhao Shi pursed the corners of her mouth, her expression calm, as if thinking about what she said, and as if not moved by her words.

Mingzhu's slender arms took the initiative to wrap his arms around his neck, stood on tiptoes, and kissed the corner of his mouth, "I haven't been back in more than a year. I really feel homesick."

Zhao Shi was silent for a while, then said slowly: "You don't want to be an inch."

Today he has made an exception to send her unruly handmaid back.

Mingzhu's face turned pale, knowing that Zhao Shi would not agree to himself so easily. She was not frightened by Zhao Shilen's indifferent voice.

Zhao Shi is a soft-hearted person. She has a better attitude and can always give herself the opportunity to go out once or twice.

In the previous life, Pearl was too obedient and cowardly. She didn't dare to resist him or get too close. She acted like a coquettish with him, and was obediently trapped in this small courtyard for five years.

The tails of the pearls were red, and they looked so pitiful and soft and delicious at the same time. Their pitch-black eyes were as beautiful and clean as glass beads.

Zhao Shi stood by the window, his face lined by the Begonia flowers outside the pane was delicate, he stared down at her, and sighed unbearably, his fingers loosened, and his fingers rubbed her eyes gently. "It's not early, take a bath and rest."

Mingzhu squeezed her fingers tightly and mumbled.

Hot water is already in the bathtub behind the screen, and a thick layer of petals is spread on the water. The water vapor creeps and the vision is blurred. Mingzhu leaned on the tub with her white body hidden under the water. After taking a shower, she did not get up and waited until she had to come out before slowly drying her body and putting on her dress.

She walked out from behind the screen barefoot, white and red, as if she was wearing a light peach makeup. Long silky hair, like satin, spread out lazily on her back, making her face smaller and smaller.

The man sits at the desk, the flame of a long candle illuminating his calm profile, holding a book in his hand, lowering his eyes, hearing the sound, slowly raising his eyelids, and looking at her for a few seconds. Afterwards, the Adam’s apple slid up and down, "put on the socks."

Mingzhu's toes are round and really cute.

She usually doesn't like to wear socks or shoes after taking a shower. She steps directly on the newly laid blanket with bare feet, not dirty or cold.

The little girl's feet will be shy when someone looks at it. Even if this person has skin close to her.

Mingzhu curled up on her toes, climbed onto the bed, and hid in the bed.

Zhao Shi stood up slowly, raised his hand to pick up the lampshade and put it on the candlestick. The flame of the long candle went out immediately. He slowly walked to the bed and sat down by the bed, holding a pair of clean socks in his hand.

"Put your feet out."

Mingzhu shook her head, "It's uncomfortable to sleep in socks."

Zhao Shi bowed his head and was silent, icy fingers went into the bed, held her ankle, and pulled her out, putting her little feet on her legs and putting on a pair of white socks.

Mingzhu was dissatisfied and murmured, but she did not dare to kick off her socks in front of him blatantly.

Zhao Shi stood up again, unhurriedly, unfastened his belt, took off his coat, and then blew out the two lights on the bedside.

The man's fingertips have a slight callus, rubbed the back of her neck, and landed on her thin back, gently soothing her trembling body, "Don't shake, go to sleep."

Mingzhu really couldn't cope with him, and the hour passed by the next day. After three poles of sun exposure, he woke up slowly. He was very hungry. After eating two bowls of porridge, he barely recovered his strength.

The two weathers of Mingzhu are ruddy, and the eyebrows are soaked with the soft and hot spring mood. They are beautiful, but now they seem to be even more beautiful. You can't move your eyes away with a frown and a smile.

Biying told her that the prince had left Wangyue Pavilion this morning, and after saying this, she said: "I don't know if the prince will come over the next few days."

If His Royal Highness makes a marriage contract in the future, there will not be many days to come to Wangyue Pavilion.

Biying couldn't help but looked at the girl Mingzhu and saw that her expression was normal, and she couldn't help but admire that she was really calm. On the other hand, it's a pity for her that the Mingzhu girl looks much more prettier than the Mingru girl, and her personality is much better than the Mingru girl. In addition to her humble background, she is better than Mingru girl in every aspect.

However, His Royal Highness emphasized etiquette the most, and he was very particular about family status.

At this point, the Pearl girl lost.

Mingzhu had nothing to do, so she began to count her small treasury. She was ashamed that she had only twenty taels of silver, which was not enough for her to travel to Jiangnan.

Mingzhu looked at the broken silver on the table and sighed. From the first time she took A Rou to escape and was captured, Zhao Shi never gave her any more money. The rewards are precious treasures that are not worthy of use on weekdays. .

A Rou made a pot of scented tea for her, and after serving it to the table, she stopped talking.

Mingzhu was sitting in the sun and drinking scented tea. When she was so sleepy, she languidly took a nap against her pillow.

A Rou looked at the girl's quiet face, and felt really uncomfortable in her heart. Although she has been doing hard work in the chaifang for most of the past half year, she has a good reputation and has inquired a lot of news.

A Rou knows her own lady, is kind and soft, and treats her a little bit, and she can remember it for a lifetime. Previously, His Royal Highness was quite good to the young lady. Although the young lady did not admit it, Arou knew that the young lady was already tempted by the Prince. People sent it over.

It's a pity that I made the wrong payment. His Royal Highness only liked her appearance.

"Miss…"

"Huh? What's the matter?"

Both long and short pains are painful. A Rou was cruel and said: "His Royal Highness wants to marry Miss Ru."

Mingzhu smiled, "I know."

Yesterday Mingru had already personally visited her and told her about it.

Arou said: "Miss, you may beg the prince, let him let you go."

Now that she is about to marry a wife and have children, and to raise an outside room, it will not be nice to spread it out. In the future, her young lady will find it difficult to deal with herself in the capital, so it is better to let her go.

Mingzhu let out a low sigh, and said perfunctorily: "Yeah. I'll beg of him."

She would not, she knew that Zhao Shi would not agree at all.

Seeing her perfunctory, Arou mistakenly thought she was reluctant to leave the prince, so she was even more annoyed by the prince.

A Rou didn't dare to tell her the conversation she had heard in the rockery. She was afraid that the young lady would be sad. Anyone who heard her beloved man belittle her origin would not feel so good in her heart.

What did Arou say in front of Mingzhu, "Miss, the prince is not as good as Wei Gongzi at all."

Wei Chi is from a poor family, but he does things well. Even if she is poor, she often buys expensive snacks for her young lady, and the money earned from copying books buys hairpins and bracelets for her young lady.

After finally getting out of it, I used all my family as a betrothal gift. I was going to marry her family's lady as a righteous lady in Three Books and Six Ceremonies.

A Rou was vomiting blood after thinking about it.

Mingzhu said with an expression, "Now it's useless to say this."

Arou said: "Prince Wei has been awarded a Jinshi, if the young lady married him smoothly, she will be able to live a good life."

Mingzhu raised her eyes and asked, "Has he passed the Jinshi exam?"

A Rou nodded.

very nice. Mingzhu is happy for him from the heart. Wei Chiyu had treated her well before, but she had no fate with him.

Mingzhu couldn't help asking a few more words: "Then he moved?"

A Rou shook her head and replied, "No, I still live in the back alley."

When Mingzhu asked the answer, she began to feel lost. She lowered her face and said in a sad tone, "I haven't had time to return the jade bracelet he gave me."

It was the relic left to him by his mother, and it was sent to her as a bride price.

A dozen boxes of betrothal gifts were returned to him by the Ming family intact when they retired. Only the jade bracelet that had been put on her hand had no chance to be returned.

The day is dwindling, and there is a message in front that the prince is going to court.

Mingzhu's heart jumped, wondering why he came again? She hurriedly closed her voice, unable and daring to name Wei Chiyu before Zhao Shi told her.

Zhao Shi seemed to be in a good mood. When invited by a friend to go to the teahouse this morning, he accidentally ran into the Ming family's eldest daughter who was disguised as a man.

The scholars in the teahouse are aligning each other.

Mingru unexpectedly got a few difficult pairs right in a row, and made a big splash. I was extremely surprised when I met him, bowed, and begged in a low voice, "His Royal Highness, please don't pierce me. If my father finds me sneaking out, he will definitely teach me severely."

Zhao Zhi promised that she would not speak out.

Mingru laughed, "Then thank Your Highness first."

Zhao Shi random hummed, and Mingru sat down beside him without authorization and ordered a cup of tea.

Zhao Shi didn't drive her away, and sipped the tip of the hair in the cup, "You are right."

Mingru is very humble, "The prince is false praise."

After it was over, Mingru took the lead.

Zhao Zhijue, the eldest daughter of the Ming family, acted with a degree of stance, the size was just right, not too far away, nor rigid, and there was indeed a ladylike style of everyone.

Cheng Wang Shizi smiled and shook his head, "You, the future concubine, are a bit interesting, really a wonderful person."

Zhao Shi put down his teacup and knocked it on the table, "Be careful in words and deeds."

Cheng Wang Shizi smiled again, "Could it be that you don't want to marry her?" Then he continued: "If you don't want to marry, no one will force you to marry. I really envy you. The marriage is in charge, unlike me. Whoever you want to marry, it doesn’t matter if you say it yourself."

Zhao Shi didn't seem to be listening attentively, and got up after sitting for a while, "I'm going now, you sit down slowly."

On the way back to the house, after passing the pastry shop, Zhao Shi called the carriage to a halt and asked them to pack a few bags of sweet and fragrant desserts.

He remembered that Mingzhu seemed to like these sweet and greasy pastries.

After Zhao Shi returned to the other courtyard, he did not go to Mingzhu's room first, but went to the study to read and practice calligraphy.

The cakes were sent to the Wangyue Pavilion by the guards.

Mingzhu was flattered, but she would not be moved as easily as before. She put aside the packaged cakes and continued to play with the newly delivered flowers.

After half an hour passed in a blink of an eye, Mingzhu stretched her waist. Yu Guang glanced at the tabletop inadvertently, and was silent for a few seconds. She said to the outsider Biying: "Throw away the cakes on the table."

Biying walked in with a pale face, lowered her head and hid her face, her calves were shaking, and her voice was trembling: "Girl..."

Mingzhu explained: "It's cold. I don't want to eat it. Lose it. Don't be afraid, he won't know."

Biying lifted her pale face, opened her mouth, her throat seemed to be stuffed with dirt, her lips moved, she was too nervous to say anything.

Mingzhu is about to ask what's wrong?

The cold, tall and thin man raised his feet and crossed the threshold, his expression naturally walked in. The room was extremely quiet and silent for a long time. Zhao Shi spoke with a calm voice: "What are you still doing in a daze? Didn't you hear what she said?"

Biying directly knelt down, shaking her body into chaff.

Mingzhu frowned. It wasn't a big deal, but Zhao Shi seemed very angry.
