Chapter 13: Race to the Top
was sleeping soundly, and in a trance heard the noise outside the door, Xia Chuxin sighed, had no choice but to get up, walked to the door unkempt and barefoot, kicked the door open, and shouted: "Do you have a sense of public morality?" Still don't let people sleep? ”
After shouting to calm down, I realized that there were a lot of people standing outside the door, and it was a middle-aged woman with an elegant temperament, but her eyes were very sharp when she looked at her. Next to the middle-aged woman was a little woman with a graceful posture and dusty appearance, Xia Chuxin recognized it at a glance as Xia Xin, and sure enough, she had a face with her half-sister, and then of course it was Xia Duo, who had a black face all year round.
Seeing that Xia Chuxin came back to his senses, the stunning summer heart floated with a warm smile and said, "Little sister, haven't you woken up yet?" ”
Xia Chuxin shrunk his bare feet into the hem of his skirt, somewhat embarrassed, and coughed dryly: "Wake up, it's awake, it's just that the spirit is awake, and the body hasn't kept up." ”
Hearing her words, several people on the other side had different faces, and Xia Xin pursed his lips and smiled happily. He came up and grabbed Xia Chuxin's arm, and said to Princess Dingguo: "Mother, let's go into the house and say, my little sister only fell into the water yesterday, I'm afraid I won't be able to stand for so long." ”
The group of people on the opposite side entered the main hall of Lanxi Pavilion with the support of the servant servant, and Xia Xin instructed the two girls to wash and dress Xia Chuxin, and after a while, a smart and glamorous second lady appeared in front of everyone.
Before he sat down, he heard the princess of Dingguo on the throne ask, "You are Xia Chuxin?" ”
Xia Chuxin poked his head out to the sharp eyes of Princess Shangdingguo, got up and replied: "If you go back to the princess, I am Xia Chuxin." ”
Princess Dingguo straightened up, she didn't seem to expect this girl to be so humble or arrogant, where is this momentum like a lowly seed, to the point of being a noble princess from the palace. I couldn't help but have some doubts in my heart.
Looking her up and down again, this face is just a vulgar yellow-haired girl, and there are even cracks on her thin face, where is it like Tianxin's skin can be broken. It's just that her eyes are extraordinarily bright, and even flashing a little cunning.
"In the past few days, there has been more news about you in this mansion, but this palace has been underestimating you, I didn't expect you to have such ability. Now that the whole capital knows about you, the second lady of the princess's mansion, then you should look like a young lady. Do you stare at your mistress when you see it? "Princess Dingguo is aggressive.
Xia Chuxin snorted coldly in his heart, he really deserves to write you as a villain, and this is about to start playing the face of a villain. It's just that a smile appeared on his face, and he pounced, made a five-body bow, and said: "The beginner is young and doesn't understand the rules, and I ask Her Royal Highness the princess to punish her, Her Royal Highness the princess is a thousand years old and a thousand years old!" ”
A few people in the hall were dumbfounded, what kind of etiquette is this?
Princess Dingguo was also full of doubts, thinking that this girl would definitely not give in to herself once she was in power, and wanted to give him some color to see, but who knew that this girl was so prostrate, so that the "color" she prepared was nowhere to dye at this time.
"That's it, it's just vulgar, the official family will find a mother-in-law to teach her the rules one day, if there is a foreign appearance in the future, where can I put my lord's face."
A gray-haired man in his fifties bowed down and said, "Yes." ”
Princess Dingguo sighed and said, "Get up, what does this five-body throw looks like, are you still going to let everyone up and down in the mansion come to watch you, the second lady?" ”
Xia Chuxin knelt up, bowed to the princess of Nadingguo a few times, and said: "The princess is generous, the first heart is grateful to the princess, the princess is a thousand years old." ”
"The mouth is quite sweet, but if you don't learn the rules well, you will lose the face of the princess's mansion at that time, no matter who you sponsor, the second lady will be punished according to the palace."
Although Princess Dingguo's voice was sharp at this time, her complexion softened a lot. I don't have so much disgust with Xia Chuxin in my heart.
"Keep in mind the princess's teachings, and you must study hard to live up to the princess's high expectations."
Xia Chuxin thanked him, got up and sat back in his previous position, and after sitting down, he raised his head and gave a respectful smile to Princess Dingguo.
Princess Dingguo frowned slightly, and said in her heart: It seems that this girl is really like what Tianduo said, her behavior is weird, and her words are absurd, there must be something unspeakable in this.
"How did I hear that you are still related to the son of Beiguan? You are a girl who has not been out of the cabinet all day long in the house, how can you be related to the prince of Beiguan? Also, what were you making a fuss about in the garden last night? ”
Xia Chuxin was suddenly extremely aggrieved, his eyes rolled and he squeezed out two tears, and said with tears in his eyes: "Speaking of this, Her Royal Highness the princess has to call the shots for me, Chuxin is just a ten-year-old yellow-haired girl, born in the princess's mansion and the princess's mansion is long, naturally everything must be focused on the princess's mansion, that day on the back wall to see the man and beast sneakily want to escape, so he chased after him regardless of safety, who knew that he was kicked down the drain by the human beast, fortunately the passing of the world rescued me, where do I know what kind of world he is or orange, I only found out after the eldest brother and the third highness came down. Last night, it wasn't Chuxin who was making a fuss, it was the Third Highness who fell into the water, Chuxin passed by to rescue him, and he went back at night and caught a cold, and sneeze all night, but, fortunately, there is a princess Hongfu blessing, otherwise where can Chuxin sit here now and give the princess a little reply. ”
"What? Huai Jin overboard? How could such a thing be? Celestial, what's going on? Why not? ”
Xia Duo said respectfully: "Back to my mother, Your Highness is sympathetic to everyone, and I am afraid of disturbing my father and mother at night, so I will go back to the house immediately." ”
"How's the man?" Princess Dingguo asked eagerly.
"Your Highness is fine, my son followed His Highness all the way back to the house, and he will not come back until the imperial doctor checks on him."
Princess Dingguo was relieved at this time, and her eyes returned to Xia Chuxin's body. I thought in my heart, this girl's words obviously seemed to be nonsense, but she was bumped into everything by herself, and she didn't believe in that law yet. turned around and said, "Then according to what you said, you still suffered a lot for the princess's mansion?" ”
Xia Chuxin got up and knelt down again, and said earnestly: "For the princess's mansion, Chuxin is naturally duty-bound, but Chuxin's life is not enough to worry about, however, Chuxin suspects that His Highness did not fall into the water, but someone did it deliberately." ”
At this time, Xia Duo's face was almost as dark as the sky, and this girl's mouth was full of rhetoric, and what she said was even more worried than that of him, a serious young master of the princess's mansion.
"Oh? On what basis do you say that? Princess Dingguo continued to ask.
Xia Chuxin ripped open the collar, and a bruise on his chest was revealed. Almost immediately, Xia Duo turned his back and shouted, "No shame, no shame. What kind of system? ”
Xia Xintan got up and looked at the bruises, frowned slightly, sorted out Xia Chuxin's clothes with a distressed face, and asked, "How did you get this, how did you get it like this?" ”
"Princess, eldest sister, this is the bruise that was hit by someone when I was saving His Highness by the pool yesterday, so I believe that His Highness will not fall into the water for nothing, there must be something strange in this."
After these words, several people in the hall all looked solemn and thoughtful.
Princess Dingguo looked at Xia Chuxin under the hall carefully, and it seemed that she really thought too much? Tianduo said that this girl may have something to do with the people in Beiguan, but is it like this little girl in front of her who has a thin body and cries pear blossoms with rain? But she saved Huai Jin yesterday regardless of her own safety, and pointed out that Huai Jin falling into the water may not be simple, perhaps, the focus in the future should not be on this little girl, and it is right to find out who wants to put the princess's mansion to death.
Thinking of this, Princess Dingguo said: "If you are injured, ask the doctor to take a look, and spread it as if the princess's mansion bullied you." In the case of the attack, the palace will send someone to find out, you will learn the rules to take care of your injuries, and enter the palace in a few days to face the saint, you must not lose the face of the princess's mansion. ”
What? Enter the palace to face the saint?
"Why do you want to enter the palace to face the saint?"
"I commend you for your meritorious service in chasing humans and beasts, and for loyally protecting the princess's mansion. In the future, you, the second young lady, I'm afraid no one will be able to ignore it anymore. Princess Dingguo's words were a little helpless.
Emma, what's there to commend for this? See the emperor, I've lived for more than 20 years and I've never seen a living emperor, so it's okay, open your eyes!
