Because this garden was arranged very properly by Ning Wang Zhuxuan, it was just past Shen Shi when they settled down.

It's still early, and it's hard to get the sun out today, so although there is some fatigue from the journey, everyone doesn't want to rest so early.

It's just that unlike the adults, Xin Ping, who was excited all the way, was tired at this time, Nanyan asked Aunt Tongyun to sleep with her, and left the yard by herself and went out for a walk.

A land of ice and snow.

Nanyan wrapped the fox fur on his body, and walked all the way to the garden, although there was also a lake here, but the lake was frozen, and there was a tall tree on the shore, probably because it had only snowed before coming, and there were even trees hanging on the trees.

Crystal clear, just like the jade tree of the Moon Palace.

Nanyan walked under the tree, looked up at the tree, and couldn't help but think of the tree he saw halfway when Zhu Feng left from Beiping to Hecheng with him last time.

It's also so tall, and it's also so crystal clear.

And what happened at that time-

Just when Nanyan was standing under the tree, intently thinking about the things that happened more than a year ago, and couldn't help but feel a little distracted, inexplicably, she felt that there was a gaze following her.

This gaze was like the gaze of the crowd as their ship approached the harbor of the Great Shrine.

Focused, and even a little ...... A familiar feeling.

She stood under the tree, a little stunned.

This Tianjin city, including this garden, is something that I have never been to before, so how can I have familiar eyes looking at me?

Is it just an illusion of mental tension?

Just when she was in a trance, a gust of wind suddenly blew and shook the tree beside her, listening to the creaking sound overhead, the trunk shook slightly, and the snow on it fell with a loud sound.

"Be careful!"

A familiar voice rang in my ears.

As soon as Nanyan turned around, she saw a figure rushing in front of her and raising her arm, blocking the top of her head.

The snow fell with a clatter, all on the man's shoulders and arms.

“……！”

This happened before.

It was at that time a year ago that she just recalled, on the way from Beiping to Hecheng, Zhu Feng once blocked the snow falling from the trees for her.

What happened that day made her unforgettable.

Not only in the snow, but also the joy of her and Zhu Feng laughing and playing, but also the sadness brought by the departure of another person, which has always been engraved in her mind.

And at this moment, the figure in this memory is standing in front of him.

He looked at himself with his head down, a little nervous, and his eyes full of concern.

"Are you alright?"

“……”

Nanyan was completely speechless.

She opened her eyes wide in astonishment, looking at the familiar face in front of her, still handsome, and the temperament of the moon and breeze at the corners of her eyes and eyebrows did not change at all.

But—

How did he end up here?

"Master Jane?"

Nanyan couldn't believe his eyes.

But standing beside her, raising his arms to protect her in his arms, it was clearly Jian Ruocheng.

Hearing her call herself, she seemed to be sure that she was okay, Jian Ruocheng smiled slightly, as if relieved, put her arms down, and dusted off the falling snow on her sleeves and shoulders.

"Guifei Niangniang, the grass people are rude."

Grass Folk ......

By the way, he has already been dismissed, and now he is no longer the right man of Zhongshu Province, but an ordinary person.

But how could an ordinary person appear here?

Jian Ruocheng, why did you appear here?

It was just a short time, and countless questions were already tumbling in Nan Yan's mind, she stood in front of Jian Ruocheng and said softly: "Jane-Second Son, why are you here?" ”

Jian Ruocheng blocked the falling snow on her body, returned to her usual personable appearance, took a step back, and kept a regular distance from her.

Then he smiled and said, "The grass people have always been here." ”

"All the time?"

Nanyan looked at him with a frown, and was in a trance for a moment, and suddenly understood something.

I heard that he left Jinling before, but no one knew where he went, could it be that -

"You, you came to King Ning's mansion?"

"That's right," Jian Ruocheng said with a smile, "The grass people are now a staff member of King Ning's Mansion. ”

“……”

Nanyan was speechless.

He actually went to Zhu Xuan's side and became his staff.

Of course, if it is an ordinary official, it is very common to return to his hometown, or to be dismissed from office to work as a staff member on some web pages, but-

He is Jian Ruocheng!

That person is Ning Wang Zhu Xuan!

These two people are Nanyan no matter what, they would never even dream that they would come together.

Nanyan looked up at him and said a little stupidly, "Why? ”

"Why?"

Jian Ruocheng repeated these three words, and a little smile flashed on his face, as if he thought this question was funny.

"Why not?" he said. ”

“……”

"Although the grass people have been dismissed, the grass people still have their own ideals and what they want to do."

“……”

"Since you can't do it in the court, let's do it in another place."

“……”

"Isn't it normal for a good bird to choose a tree to perch on?"

Yes, that's normal.

But if you put it on him, it's not normal.

Nanyan only felt that his breath was messed up, his eyebrows frowned slightly, and he looked up at him, his tone was tangled and heavy: "Why?" ”

She seems to be stuck in this problem and can't get out.

If it was before, if it was someone else, she could understand this "good bird chooses trees to perch".

But in front of him-King Ning-

Nanyan said softly: "Second son, are you serious?" ”

Jian Ruocheng looked at her with a smile, but her eyes looked calm and solemn: "I am very serious about doing everything below, and I will go all out." ”

“……”

Nanyan was completely speechless.

At this time, a joking and laughing voice sounded next to him.

"Ruocheng, what are you talking to the concubine?"

“……”

"It's so serious, it's like swearing, don't scare the concubine."

Hearing this voice, Nanyan's heart trembled slightly.

And Jian Ruocheng immediately turned around with a smile and said calmly, "Your Highness." ”

Slowly walking behind them was none other than Ning Wang Zhu Xuan.

In a few moments, he changed his clothes, and the neckline of his snow-white robe was inlaid with some fluffy feathers, which looked warm and luxurious.

is still the appearance of a personable turbidity son.

Jian Ruocheng turned to him and said with a smile: "Ruocheng is talking about tonight's dinner." ”

"Dinner?"

Nanyan looked at him in surprise.

Zhu Xuan walked over with a smile and said, "That's right, noble concubine Niangniang, the emperor and all the ladies come to this annex of this king, and this king naturally has to have rules for taking over." At tonight's dust washing banquet, I hope that Niangniang will give this king a thin noodle, and she will definitely attend. ”
