In the palace, in the study.

Prince Duan was standing in front of the desk, bent over, admiring the painting of galloping horses unfolded on the table with concentration on his face.

Nangong Huoyue placed several other paintings next to them and said with a smile: "Uncle Duan Wang, there are a few more paintings here. You can take a look at them first while I go out."

Prince Duan didn't even raise his head and said with all his concentration: "Okay, okay, I'll see for myself."

Nangong Huoyue glanced at him, turned around and walked out.

The bead curtain rustled and the red shadow disappeared.

The room was quiet for a while. Prince Duan slowly raised his head and looked at the door, then continued to lower his head and admire the paintings on the table.

Nangong Huoyue left the main hall, walked directly through the corridor, and walked to the back.

Yue Wu followed from the side and reported in a low voice: "Master Luo has already taken a bath in the back, and Hua Gu has also passed by."

Nangong Huoyue said: "How long?"

Yue Wu said: "It takes about half a stick of incense."

Nangong Huoyue said no more, walked through the garden, walked onto a stone bridge, and looked at the water pavilion not far ahead.

She suddenly stopped on the stone bridge, stared at the attic for a while, then suddenly turned around and said: "Let's go, I won't go."

Yuewu asked strangely: "Your Highness, has he not seen him?"

Nangong Huoyue walked down the stone bridge and said calmly: "With Mr. Luo's character and temper, regardless of whether Hua Gu succeeds or not, it is not suitable for me to see him now. There will be many opportunities in the future."

Yue Wu followed behind, lowered his head and said, "Thank you, Your Highness."

Nangong Huoyue was silent for a moment, and said with an indifferent expression: "I don't sympathize with her, I just think she has some use value. Men are lustful, and Mr. Luo is no exception. If he doesn't want fame and wealth, then I will use women to lust after her.

Come and satisfy him. The flower bone is a peerless beauty. I believe Mr. Luo will know the taste after eating it once, and he will never forget her again."

Yuewu whispered: "Your Highness, will Mr. Luo really help us wholeheartedly?"

Nangong Huoyue sneered and said: "You have to remember that no one in this world will wholeheartedly help others, even if they are their own relatives, it is nothing more than a matter of interest."

After saying that, she was silent for a while and then said: "Of course, there may be exceptions."

The two entered the main hall.

At this time, Nangong Xiaorui and Nangong Meijiao had just finished taking a bath, changed into new clothes, and walked in from outside.

After Nangong Xiaorui saw her, she lowered her head and timidly said: "Sister Huang."

Nangong Meijiao looked around the room and didn't see anyone. She frowned slightly, but she didn't ask.

Nangong Huoyue didn't say much and entered the study.

Prince Duan had finished admiring the calligraphy and painting, and was reading some poems. When he saw her coming in, he couldn't help but smile and said: "Huoyue, these paintings and calligraphy are good, but these poems, haha, I can only say that they are okay. I have a few Buddhist poems here."

Poetry, do you want to listen to it?"

Nangong Huoyue smiled and said: "Looking at Uncle Wang's expression, these Buddhist verses should be very good."

Prince Duan chuckled and said with a proud face: "It's not only good, even gold... Haha, let me read it for you to listen to."

Nangong Meijiao was not found in the room, so she immediately left the hall and asked the palace maid before.

The palace maid replied respectfully: "Princess, there is no place for men to bathe here. Mr. Luo may have been taken behind by Xiaodong. I don't know where to bathe specifically."

Nangong Meijiao asked: "Is Xiaodong back?"

The palace maid shook her head and said, "Not yet."

Nangong Xiaorui also came out of the main hall and said: "Sister Meijiao, has Luo Qingzhou disappeared? Could he have been abducted? I heard that there are many old men in the palace who have not seen men for decades.

The palace maids may have seen that Luo Qingzhou was looking good, so they abducted him to play with them."

The expression on Nangong Meijiao's face froze, and she glared at her and said, "Who told you these things?"

Nangong Xiaorui said: "Chang Le, what Chang Le said. She said that there are many old maids and old eunuchs in the palace who are very perverted, and they especially like to abduct young men and come in for castration."

Nangong Meijiao: "..."

Nangong Xiaorui seemed to see her worries, and suddenly said: "Sister Meijiao, if Luo Qingzhou is castrated and becomes a little eunuch, can he play with me all the time in the future? Father will no longer have to worry about men and women.

Don’t you want to kiss each other?"

Nangong Meijiao ignored her and walked quickly to the long corridor leading to the back.

Nangong Xiaorui also quickly followed and said: "Sister Meijiao, wait for me!"

As soon as the two of them walked around the corner, Luo Qingzhou came hurriedly from the corridor behind.

He seemed to have finished taking a shower, put on clean black clothes, and had his hair combed meticulously.

The three of them looked at each other.

Nangong Meijiao stared at him and looked him up and down.

Nangong Xiaorui suddenly said with disappointment on her face: "Luo Qingzhou, weren't you kidnapped by the old palace maid and the old eunuch? I was about to rescue you."

Luo Qingzhou stopped in front of the two of them and said, "The palace maid took me to the back to take a shower."

Nangong Meijiao stared at his delicate cheeks for a while, then asked, "Where did you go to wash it?"

Luo Qingzhou pointed to the back and said: "There is an attic in the back, and the laundry is done in the room there. Would you like to have a look, Princess?"

Nangong Meijiao glared at him, turned around and said, "Let's go and eat."

Luo Qingzhou followed him.

Nangong Xiaorui walked side by side with him, tilted her head and looked at him and said: "Luo Qingzhou, don't run around anymore. Be careful of being captured by the old palace maids to play with them, and be careful of the old eunuchs arresting you for castration."

Luo Qingzhou nodded and said: "Okay, thank you, Princess, for reminding me."

Nangong Xiaorui suddenly moved her nose, came close to him and smelled it, and said: "Luo Qingzhou, what kind of soap did you use to take a bath? It smells so good, and it has a sweet smell."

Luo Qingzhou said: "I don't know either, the palace maid brought it to me."

Nangong Xiaorui suddenly asked again: "Did that little palace maid rub your back?"

Nangong Meijiao pricked up her ears.

Luo Qingzhou said: "No."

The three of them quickly entered the palace.

At this time, the maid had already started serving food.

When the three of them came to the door of the study, they heard Prince Duan's proud laughter coming from inside: "Huoyue, aren't you very powerful? I have all the original manuscripts here, and that boy took the initiative to please me and gave them to me.

If you like it, Uncle Wang can reluctantly part with it and give you a song."

Nangong Huoyue smiled and said: "Uncle Wang, you're welcome, just keep it for yourself."

After saying that, he turned his head and looked at the three people at the door.

Prince Duan also looked at the door, and quickly walked out with a smile on his face, saying: "Qingzhou, can you write another Buddhist verse? Give it to the eldest princess. When you come to eat here, you can't come empty-handed.

."

Nangong Xiaorui retorted: "Father, didn't you also come empty-handed?"

Prince Duan chuckled and said: "My father's surname is Nangong, your surname is Nangong, and so is Meijiao. We are all a family, so it doesn't matter. Qingzhou is different. He wants to stay here for dinner, so naturally he has to give something to your sister."

thing."

Nangong Huoyue looked at the young man outside the room, smiled faintly, and said: "No, I am not very interested in poetry. Uncle Wang, let's go, let's go eat first."

Seeing this, Prince Duan didn't force himself anymore and said, "Okay, let's eat first."

Several people went to the dining room.

Nangong Meijiao said: "Sister Huang and Uncle Wang, let's eat here. Xiaorui, Luo Qingzhou and I will go out to eat."

Nangong Xiaorui quickly echoed: "Yes, yes, father, royal sister, you chat, the three of us can go out to eat."

Prince Duan sat down at the table carelessly and said nothing.

Nangong Huoyue glanced at the three of them and said, "Why, can't you eat while sitting here?"

Nangong Xiaorui didn't dare to say anything anymore.

Nangong Meijiao glanced at her and explained: "Sister Huang, Luo Qingzhou is white and it is not convenient for him to sit here."

The hall suddenly fell into a brief silence.

Nangong Huoyue smiled faintly, suddenly looked at the young man behind her and said: "In my heart, Mr. Luo is not in vain. If he is willing, I can give him the position of Prime Minister of Huoyue Kingdom. If he doesn't like the Prime Minister

, Taiwei is also suitable. Whether it is a civil servant or a military attache, I think Mr. Luo is worthy of it."

As soon as these words came out, the hall suddenly fell silent.

Nangong Xiaorui opened her mouth, opened her eyes wide, looked at the boy next to her, and then looked at her imperial sister.

Does the imperial sister know Luo Qingzhou?

And the imperial sister actually thinks so highly of Luo Qingzhou?

Doesn't this guy just know how to write poetry and keep goal? He can't even kick a ball or shoot a goal.
