Imperial study room.

When the Master was giving a lecture, Zhou Qian sat upright, seemed to listen very seriously, but thought about it, but even so, it did not prevent him from noticing the gaze of the seventh prince next to him from time to time.

It’s not that I don’t know each other, what’s there to look at?

Zhou Qian looked at the seventh prince.

The seventh prince immediately lowered his head, grabbed his pen and wrote a few words in a pretentious manner.

During the break, Zhou Qian went to the clean room to solve his problems. Halfway through, the Seventh Prince chased him from behind. The place where the princes studied was only one clean room, but the clean room was separated by a screen, which definitely ensured the privacy of each prince. Eunuch Liu opened a single room for Zhou Qian. As soon as Zhou Qian stepped in, the Seventh Prince couldn't wait to rush into the single room next to Zhou Qian.

The screen is an embroidered screen that can isolate the sight, but can also see personal images.

When Zhou Qian was letting go, he saw the seventh prince lying there almost like a gecko on the screen next to him.

Zhou Qian frowned and whispered: "Lao Qi."

The Seventh Prince has seen it!

Sixth Brother’s is indeed more spectacular than his, but Sixth Brother is one year older than him. If the two of them are the same age, there is no difference at all! It’s a pity that Gillian, who is around Sixth Brother, said that he is short, not as handsome as Sixth Brother, nor as handsome as Sixth Brother, and not as good as Sixth Brother’s military achievements. He is indeed not as good as Sixth Brother’s military achievements, but in terms of height, he is only a little shorter than Sixth Brother!

The seventh prince rushed out of the clean room angrily.

Zhou Qian listened to the footsteps of his departure and frowned deeper. What does it mean? Lao Qi followed him to peek at him?

Zhou Qian felt that the seventh prince's behavior was too abnormal today. The morning class was over. When the two walked towards the princes' residence together, when the seventh prince looked at him with complicated eyes, Zhou Qian asked directly: "What is the matter when you frequently peek at me?"

Concubine Xian is full of bad water, but her own son is a straightforward person. The Seventh Prince felt that he had received unfair evaluation and was already very nervous. Since his brother asked, the Seventh Prince turned around and asked the two serving father-in-law to retreat a little further, and then said angrily: "Gillian is by the Sixth Brother, who is too unruly, and she actually belittles me behind her back."

Zhou Qian thought that the two palace maids did meet yesterday.

"How did she defame you?" Zhou Qianman asked casually.

The Seventh Prince imitated Chen Jiao's tone that he heard from Qingzhu in vivid detail, and said in a slight voice: "Yes, I also think that my highness is good, tall, handsome, civil and military. The Seventh Prince is short and his literary talent is not as good as my highness. Standing with my highness, the Seventh Prince is like a child who is still stinky!"

After saying that, the seventh prince returned to his normal voice, raised his hand to gesture the height of Zhou Qian, and said angrily: "She is blind, isn't she? I'm only a little shorter than you, so I'm not like a child!" He is already sixteen, and he has been sleeping in women since last year. If it weren't for the princess Qingzhu Qinglan who was taking Zi Yu Tang, he would have almost become a father.

Facing the anger of the seventh prince, Zhou Qian said lightly: "She is offending and disrespectful to the seventh brother. I will punish her if she turns back."

The Seventh Prince was shocked. The Sixth Brother treated him well. The palace maids below were cruel and unkind. Could it be that they would punish Gillian? Imagine a delicate beauty who was beaten to pieces and then kicked out of the palace. The Seventh Prince suddenly felt pity and said, "Sixth Brother is so serious. How could I argue with a little palace maid? It's not worth it or not."

Zhou Qian looked at him: "What's the Seventh Brother meant, no more punishment?"

The Seventh Prince nodded repeatedly.

Zhou Qian said: "Then let her go."

While talking, the prince's residence was ahead, and the two of them returned to the palace.

As soon as Zhou Qian came in, he saw two palace maids standing respectfully in the courtyard to greet him. His eyes swept over Chen Jiao's too bright face. Zhou Qian really couldn't match this ordinary palace maid with those arrogant and proud words. However, each with one face in front of others, maybe she was just a rule in front of him.

That night, Chen Jiao was standing in front of the bathtub to shampoo Zhou Qian, suddenly listening to the man asking: "What did you say to the palace maid next to His Highness Seventh Prince yesterday?"

Chen Jiao's hand holding the water scoop shook, and the water that was supposed to sprinkle between his hair was gone.

She told Qingzhu a lot of nonsense, and Zhou Qian was the only one who mocked the Seventh Prince like a child. Qingzhu would definitely tell the Seventh Prince. Could it be that the Seventh Prince ran to Zhou Qian to complain?

Chen Jiao didn't dare to gamble, so she put down the water puff and immediately knelt on the ground: "I have no restraint, please punish me."

Zhou Qian put his hands on the bathtub, looked out, and asked, "As the Seventh Prince, how can you criticize him?"

Chen Jiao's face was pale, because she was not considerate and did not expect the Seventh Prince to sue.

"Disaster comes from the mouth. You can understand some things in your heart. Don't talk to others casually." Zhou Qian said, looking at her pale face.

Chen Jiao's eyelashes moved slightly. Zhou Qian didn't mean to punish her?

After thinking about it, Chen Jiao suddenly understood. Although she offended the Seventh Prince, she really praised Zhou Qian. Seeing Zhou Qian's attitude at this time, she was obviously pleased by her flattery.

Chen Jiao silently complained to the vain man.

"Get up." Seeing that she understood, Zhou Qian said softly.

Chen Jiao stood up quickly and looked at the man in the bathtub. She saw that the other party had closed his eyes and his handsome face had a faint red color because of the mist of water vapor. I have to say that in terms of appearance, the Seventh Prince is indeed far inferior to Zhou Qian. I think Zhou Qian's biological mother should also be a beautiful palace maid.

Do you like to listen to flattery?

Chen Jiao remembered it silently.

Later, when he was rubbing Zhou Qian's muscles and bones, Zhou Qian once again disliked her weak strength. Chen Jiao never dared to talk back. Tonight she mustered up the courage and flattered her little while explaining to herself: "Your Highness is burly and strong, and her muscles are as strong as a wall. Although I still feel it is difficult to do my best, I will forgive you if I don't serve you well."

Since you are flattering, your voice should naturally be flattering, which is different from your usual respect.

Zhou Qian felt that the soft voice of this girl was more pleasant.

"Have you ever served others?" He lay down comfortably and asked to the inside of the bed.

Chen Jiao recalled her original memory and whispered: "I was poor in my family and was not busy with farming. My mother always did embroidery work to supplement the household income. After a day, I was so tired that I couldn't even lift my arms. I knelt behind my mother to relieve her muscles and fatigue."

Another scene appeared in Zhou Qian's mind. When the Empress Dowager was alive, Concubine Xian often copied scriptures for the Empress Dowager. Once he and the Seventh Prince went to Zhaoning Palace to pay tribute. Concubine Xian had just finished copying the scriptures, and the palace maids around him were rubbing her shoulders and pinching her back. Then, the Seventh Prince walked over filially and served Concubine Xian himself.

Is it that every child in the world who has been so filial to his biological mother?

But not everyone has a chance.

Zhou Qian suddenly lost interest: "Go down."

His voice was cold, and Chen Jiao paused her hands. She didn't know where she said it was wrong, so she didn't dare to ask. She covered Zhou Qian with a quilt and covered her gauze tent, and Chen Jiao quietly stepped out.

In the next half month, Chen Jiao and Ayu were all serving each other carefully, and no one was afraid of Zhou Qian's bad intentions.

At the end of April, the second prince Shun Wang outside the palace had another son. This was the second son of Shun Wang and his wife. Shun Wang was very happy and posted a post to several brothers inside and outside the palace, asking the brothers to go and have a drink and wash the three wine.

When the Seventh Prince received the post, he excitedly came to Lingxiao Palace to find Zhou Qian.

Zhou Qian was called by Emperor Huiyuan. Before he came back, Eunuch Liu followed him. Chen Jiao and Ayu, as the great palace maid around Zhou Qian, had to come forward to entertain him.

Zhou Qian was not here, and the Seventh Prince could leave or choose to stay here to wait. Looking at the two beautiful little beauties in front of him, the Seventh Prince naturally couldn't bear to leave. He walked into the hall and smiled, "I guess your highness will be back soon, I'll wait here."

He sat down in the main seat with a big thorn. When Chen Jiao saw it, she asked respectfully: "I'm going to make tea for Your Highness. I wonder what Your Highness likes to drink?"

She wanted to try to avoid getting along with the Seventh Prince.

The seventh prince misunderstood Chen Jiao in a hurry to please him and said with a smile: "Bi Luochun, I love to drink this."

Chen Jiao nodded and went to the tea room.

The seventh prince kept watching Chen Jiao leave, and his eyes returned to A Yu.

He is a person who knows the wind and moon. His eyes were a bit romantic when he looked at the beauty, which was completely different from Zhou Qian's indifference. Ayu was very uncomfortable when he saw it, and his little face turned red little by little. The beauty was shy and even more pitiful. Relying on the absence of anyone around, the Seventh Prince coughed and asked softly: "Ayu's face is so thin, is it because the Sixth Brother has less pain to you?"

Ayu's face turned redder, and she said with a mosquito-like look: "Your Highness, your Highness, don't do this."

The Seventh Prince was furious by her little appearance and leaned over her upper body and asked, "Tell me truthfully, I won't make things difficult for you."

When Ayu heard this, he thought that the Sixth Prince only ordered Ajiao to serve and take a bath and watch the night, and she didn't even give her a chance for one night. She couldn't help but feel awkward and said lonely: "I am ugly in appearance and have not been able to serve the Sixth Prince yet."

When the Seventh Prince heard this, he looked surprised. Ayu was indeed not as seductive as Ah Gillian, but she was definitely a top beauty. Has the Sixth Brother ever touched her?

"Then, where is Gillian?" the seventh prince asked curiously.

A Yu smiled bitterly and said, "Gillian is the favorite of His Highness the Sixth Highness."

He had been eaten by the sixth brother. The glimmer of hope that the seventh prince had just emerged immediately became weak, but he also felt it was taken for granted.

Maybe, Brother Six likes Gillian, and doesn’t like Ayu.

After his thoughts changed, the Seventh Prince asked Ayu meaningfully: "If I ask you from Brother Six, would you be willing to serve me?"

Ayu raised her head in surprise.

The Seventh Prince was about to smile gently at her, but suddenly saw Zhou Qian’s master and servant appear in the yard. He was guilty. The Seventh Prince jumped out of the chair and smiled at Zhou Qian: "The Sixth Brother is finally back, I’ll wait for you for a long time."

At the same time, Chen Jiao also came out of the tea room with a tray.

Zhou Qian only looked at the seventh prince: "Do you have something to come to me?"

The seventh prince patted the invitation in his hand: "Second brother asked us to go to have a drink and wash the third wine the next day. I can't tell you what gifts to give me. I want to work with the sixth brother's staff officer."

Zhou Qian knew it and asked him to go in and talk.

"Your Highness is back." A Yu bowed his head and saluted, with a hint of blush remaining on his face.

Zhou Qian ignored him and sat on the main seat with the seventh prince.

In the yard, Chen Jiao turned back and prepared a pot of Maojian for Zhou Qian, which he loved to drink, and then brought the two kinds of tea together.

The seventh prince was still guilty and didn't dare to look at Chen Jiao much. Zhou Qian looked at Chen Jiao and put a bowl of Maojian on his side, and was quite satisfied. Just now in the yard, he saw that there was only a bowl of tea on her tray.

After drinking tea and chatting, discussing the gift, the seventh prince offered to say goodbye. Before leaving, he looked at Ayu deeply.

Ayu always lowered her head.

"How long has the Seventh Prince waited?" After the guest left, Zhou Qian asked the two palace maids and looked at Chen Jiao.

Chen Jiao said truthfully: "I just waited for the time to make tea."

Zhou Qian didn't ask any more.

When the Shun Prince's Mansion held a three-day banquet, Zhou Qian and the Seventh Prince left the palace together. It was almost dark and the person had not come back yet.

Chen Jiao and A Yu were waiting together.

It was dark and there was no moon, and Chen Jiao looked at Ayu who was like a green lotus.
