After Rebirth, I Became a Powerful Minister’s Beloved

Chapter 228 Run faster with short legs and give my brother a hug

Nan Baoyi climbed up the steps.

Push open the tightly covered vermilion lacquer gate, and the snow-white scenery rushes forward.

The verandah is old, the palace lights made of white paper are melancholy, and the shadows of the trees are mottled like ghosts.

The Sutra Pavilion has a long history and stands at the end of the garden.

White lanterns are hung under the eaves, fluttering in the cold wind like a soul.

Someone was sitting on the steps outside the Sutra Pavilion.

A pot of fire was burning vigorously, and beside the brazier were piled up like hills of paper-folded gold and silver ingots, as well as countless paper money from Hades.

Nan Baoyi covered the door.

She walked along the corridor and walked slowly towards the scripture storage pavilion.

The man picked up the paper-folded gold ingot and gently put it into the brazier.

The firelight illuminated his brows and eyes.

The man's appearance is gentle like suet white jade, and the cinnabar tear mole adds some sadness to him, but the emotion in his pupils is immature like a child.

Wearing a jade-white plain brocade robe, it is noble and clean.

The dragon-patterned jade pendant worn around his waist showed his identity.

The current crown prince, Chu Huainan.

No wonder I didn't see him at the palace banquet, so he was here.

Nan Baoyi walked up to him and saluted, "Why is His Highness the Prince alone here?"

She remembered that in her previous life, she was punished by her mother to sweep the scripture pavilion, and the maids locked her in the scripture pavilion on purpose. Seeing that she was about to starve to death, it was the prince who saved her.

Why does he always come to the Sutra Pavilion?

Chu Huainan calmed down, raised his eyebrows and eyes with a smile, "It's just in memory of the old man. Baoyi didn't celebrate the Shangyuan Festival in Chengle Hall, why did he come to the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion alone?"

"Just passing by."

Nan Baoyi replied, looking towards the garden.

White paper lanterns hang everywhere.

In the brazier, paper money was still burning.

Obviously, the prince is paying homage to his deceased.

Sacrifice and other things are very taboo in the palace, who is he paying homage to?

Xu Shi saw Nan Baoyi's curiosity, and Chu Huainan put another gold ingot into the brazier, "It is said that the palace is prosperous, but Gu thinks that the palace is really the most desolate place in the world. Can Baoyi accompany Gu?" Sit for a while?"

Firelight danced in his pupils.

But it couldn't illuminate his eyes.

He is lonely.

Nan Baoyi hesitated for a moment, then sat down beside him.

"Gu's mother queen is the Empress of the Central Palace. It's a pity that she was gone when Gu was still young. She walked on the night of Shangyuan Festival, because Shangyuan Festival is a very important festival in Nanyue Kingdom, so even tonight every year It is the mother's memorial day, and the palace will not ban wine and music for her. The orphan can only stay in the favorite place of the mother when she was alive, and remember her alone."

Nan Baoyi didn't know that the prince who was born with a golden spoon in his mouth also had such a sad past.

She picked up a gold ingot and carefully put it into the brazier.

"When the queen mother left, the father was still drinking and having fun in Concubine Jiang's palace, and he didn't have time to see her off for the last time. Gu was still very young at that time, lying on her bedside and crying foolishly.

"She touched Gu's head and said that the palace is a very lonely place. I want to call myself 'Gu' not just because I am humble, but because the position I want to climb to the top in the future is extremely cold, and I will be very lonely. lonely, very lonely...

"The queen mother said that she doesn't care about the queen's position, let alone the emperor's favor. The only thing she can't worry about is that after she leaves, her child will be lonely. She doesn't want her child to be alone."

Chu Huainan's eye circles slowly turned red.

Nan Baoyi didn't know how to comfort him.

Her mother is also gone.

At first, she would dream about it when she dreamed back at midnight, but as she grew up, her mother gradually stopped having dreams.

What's even more frightening is that the face of my mother in my memory has gradually become blurred.

Nan Baoyi has pantothenic acid on the tip of his nose.

In the brazier, the paper money for offering sacrifices was quietly burned out.

The ashes are like butterflies with sparkling fire, being blown by the cold wind, they are gradually blown higher and higher, and finally scattered lightly in the snow-falling garden.

She had no words of comfort to say.

After thinking about it, she took out a handkerchief from her sleeve pocket.

Opening the handkerchief, there are two pieces of dragon beard cake inside.

Came here from Gu Chongshan's house. Although the eunuch acted cruelly, he lived a high-style life and ate more expensive food than ordinary imperial concubines. She originally planned to secretly bring these two pieces of dragon beard cake to the little eunuch. My cousin tried it.

She said: "His Royal Highness, I invite you to eat dragon beard cake."

Chu Huainan was slightly taken aback.

Today is his mother's memorial day, out of filial piety, he does not want to drink alcohol or eat meat.

Because of the discomfort in his heart, he has not eaten for most of the day.

Longxu cake exudes a sweet and greasy taste.

He pondered for a moment, then gently picked up a piece.

It melts in your mouth, soft and delicious.

Nan Baoyi frowned and ate a piece.

In the past, Chu Huainan gave her a meal in the Buddhist scriptures pavilion, but now she gave him a piece of cake in the Buddhist scriptures pavilion, it always felt like repaying his kindness.

Chu Huainan tentatively said: "I once sent an invitation to Baoyi, asking you to visit Haidongqing at the Prince's Mansion, but Baoyi never replied..."

"You said the post, I put it together with other posts, and forget it after leaving it."

Nan Baoyi spoke nonsense.

No need to think about it, all those posts were intercepted by the Nan family sisters halfway.

"Then..." Chu Huainan hesitated, "Does Baoyi have time tomorrow to go to the Prince's Mansion to see Hai Dongqing? The lonely Hai Dongqing has smooth fur, and he can be regarded as a rare bird of prey—"

"Nan Jiaojiao."

Under the plum blossom tree in the distance, there was an impatient whisper.

Xiao Yi didn't know how long he had been here, leaning against the tree with his arms crossed, his brows and eyes were crimson.

The treetops were covered with pale paper lanterns, but his crimson clothes and brocade boots, in the boudoir of Shangyuan Ye, had a kind of rich and colorful beauty.

"Second brother!"

Nan Baoyi made a crisp sound.

She wiped her fingertips stained with crumbs of dragon beard cake with a handkerchief, held up her wide palace skirt, and sprinted towards him joyfully, like a bee smelling the fragrance of flowers.

Xiao Yi's brows widened.

He lazily opened his arms, "Run faster with short legs, give brother a hug."

short legs...

Nan Baoyi is so angry!

She thought about it more reservedly, so she deliberately slowed down her pace, but she stepped on a slippery piece of ice and rushed towards Xiao Yi!

Xiao Yi hugged her tightly.

He lowered his head and sniffed the girl's sweet hibiscus flower contentedly.

It's just that there seems to be a touch of blood in the fragrance of the flowers.

The emotions in Danfeng's eyes changed.

He quickly covered up the rage, and with a loose chuckle on his thin lips, he wrapped Nan Baoyi in his arms with a cloak, like a mountain eagle wrapped around his baby canary.

He raised his eyebrows and glanced at Chu Huainan, "But the court is too leisurely, so the prince has nothing to do, all day long seduce my little girl, come to your house to see your birds?"

Chu Huainan: "..."

What is temptation?

He held the half-eaten dragon beard cake, "Prince Jing——"

"For the last time, Nan Jiaojiao is not interested in your bird." Xiao Yi was impatient, his face was as cold and cold as usual in front of outsiders, "She is also considered a married woman, His Royal Highness, please respect yourself, don't let yourself regret for life .”

Chu Huainan: "..."

Isn't it just to watch a bird?

As for a lifelong grudge? !
