After breakfast, the plan was decided, and Zhu Xiuyuan went back to his room to change clothes.

He went back alone, and Dong Shuzhen did not follow him.

Because Li Qingnu said that a pavilion should be set up specifically for her to ask questions.

So Dong Shuyu and Dong Shuzhen went to help.

Although Li Qingnu is a princess, she is the one who asks questions and is the one who takes the lead in decorating the pavilion.

After all, Li Qingnu was just a guest of the Dong Mansion. To arrange the place and order people to do work, people from the Dong Mansion had to help.

While Zhu Xiuyuan went back to his room to change clothes, Li Qingnu and the three Dong sisters also stood up, holding hands, laughing and walking in the opposite direction to Zhu Xiuyuan.

...Zhu Xiuyuan finished changing clothes.

He walked out of the east courtyard, stepped through the hanging flower door, and looked face to face.

But he saw Li Qingnu walking quickly.

She walked briskly, her skirt reached the floor, her clothes were fluttering, and she had a smile on her face. She was followed by two maids.

"Brother!"

Li Qingnu's pace did not slow down, and he looked up with a smile on his face and said hello.

Zhu Xiuyuan was slightly surprised. He couldn't help but stop where he was, bowed his hands and asked, "Your Highness, what are you doing?"

While Zhu Xiuyuan was speaking, Li Qingnu had already walked closer.

"Senior brother..."

Li Qingnu's face was astonishing, and her smile weakened slightly, revealing a hint of anger.

He also said: "Senior brother, why are you so polite? We, brothers and sisters, should treat each other as equals. Aren't senior brothers and royal brothers considered brothers? How come you are so polite when you are here with your junior sister..."

Zhu Xiuyuan raised his eyes and looked directly at Li Qingnu.

Taking a closer look, he saw that she was tall, with slim shoulders and long body, and long hair reaching her waist. She was only half a head shorter than Zhu Xiuyuan.

When Zhu Xiu looked at her from afar, he only had to keep his posture upright and lower his eyes slightly.

Unlike when he looked at Dong Shuzhen, he had to lower his head.

Because Dong Shuzhen is young, she has a petite figure. When she stands straight, she is only as high as Zhu Xiuyuan's armpit.

Zhu Xiuyuan needs to "look down" on her.

As for Dong Shuyu, her figure is slightly taller than Dong Shuzhen, reaching Zhu Xiuyuan's shoulders.

Zhu Xiuyuan looked at her and lowered his head slightly...

Zhu Xiuyuan looked at Li Qingnu's height. After admiring him, he compared the three girls and couldn't help but look at her face again.

To be honest, Li Qingnu has been staying in Dong's Mansion for a long time. Zhu Xiuyuan and her always looked up and looked down upon each other, and they treated her as brothers and sisters.

However, every time the two met, there were many people around them.

Similar to this encounter, it was the first time that the only people with nothing to do were the two maids behind her.

Therefore, Zhu Xiuyuan almost never took a serious look at Li Qingnu.

One is to avoid suspicion, and the other is to avoid embarrassment.

After all, Li Qingnu has a special status and is a noble princess.

Or a foreign princess.

I wish Xiuyuan married men, it is better to have less contact with them.

But this "unexpected encounter" made Zhu Xiuyuan's mentality change slightly.

He thought that this Li Qingnu was as beautiful as the Dong sisters. They were both fat and thin, each with its own fragrance.

But she has an extra temperament.

That should be the temperament of a princess of a country, indescribable and inviolable.

This is a different kind of beauty.

This kind of beauty is so special, it is one of the elements that make up the beautiful things in the world.

It is like a delicate flower in full bloom, like a lingering lingering sound.

Worth appreciating!

Therefore, Zhu Xiuyuan's mentality quietly changed.

Li Qingnu's beauty and Li Qingnu's temperament are just like the delicate flowers or the charming sound.

It shouldn't hurt to take a look and appreciate it.

Then Zhu Xiuyuan's eyes moved, he turned his head slightly, and his eyes fell on Li Qingnu's stunning face.

I saw that she was lightly applying makeup and her eyebrows were curved.

The cherry mouth is small and the nose is straight.

Her eyes are big and lively, and her cheeks are white and rosy.

The facial features are well-proportioned and soft, and there is a kind of thrilling beauty!

Zhu Xiuyuan only glanced at it and didn't look any further.

He immediately laughed again and said: "Your Highness the Princess is joking. Not to mention the difference in status, just saying that the Princess is a guest cannot be disrespectful... By the way, why is Your Highness the Princess here?"

Li Qingnu did not dwell too much on this matter, and just smiled and said: "Senior brother, junior sister is here to invite you, and the pavilion will be ready soon..."

Li Qingnu smiled, intoxicating and bewildering, tilted her head, tilted her pearls, and said in a pleading and coquettish tone: "Senior brother, please!"

Zhu Xiuyuan nodded: "I see, I'd rather bother Her Royal Highness to go there in person..."

Zhu Xiuyuan and Li Qingnu walked side by side, no more than one step apart.

They were a little too close, and Zhu Xiuyuan subconsciously fell half a step behind.

Try to distance yourself, after all, men and women cannot communicate clearly.

Zhu Xiuyuan was not afraid, he was mainly afraid that Li Qingnu would not like it.

But Li Qingnu didn't shy away from it. When she saw Zhu Xiuyuan was half a step behind, she also fell behind half a step.

Keep walking side by side and moving forward together.

Zhu Xiuyuan tried it twice, but failed both times, so he just let nature take its course, regardless of whether men and women could not accept it or not.

The two walked and talked, laughing happily.

They walked and laughed all the way, and Li Qingnu's charming face turned red with laughter.

It seems to be dyed with a touch of crimson, which is particularly gorgeous and lovely.

After a while, the two came to the pavilion.

I saw Dong Shuyu directing all the girls to be busy, arranging tables and chairs, serving refreshments, busy and orderly.

But Dong Shuzhen was nowhere to be seen, and she didn't know what she was doing.

When Zhu Xiuyuan and Li Qingnu walked into the pavilion, the maids had just finished setting up and left in a line.

"Xiuyuan, Qingnu, you are here."

Dong Shuyu greeted her warmly. She first took Li Qingnu's hand, came to the side of the stone table in the pavilion, and said, "Qingnu, sit here."

Then, Dong Shuyu looked at Zhu Xiuyuan, waved his hand and said: "Xiuyuan, sit across from Qingnu, so that we can answer questions face to face."

Zhu Xiuyuan said "Okay" and immediately sat down opposite Li Qingnu, facing her. When he raised his eyes, he could see Li Qingnu in full view.

As the owner of this room, Dong Shuyu had everything settled and everyone returned to their places. She then sat down on the seat to the left of Zhu Xiuyuan.

At the same time, Zhu Xiuyuan glanced at Li Qingnu first, then lowered his gaze and scanned the entire stone table.

I saw that there were many things on the table.

There was a small stove with a strong fire and scarlet charcoal fire. There was a teapot sitting on the small stove.

There are also tea cans, tea cups, tea cups and other tea sets.

After Dong Shuyu sat down, he personally served the tea set there.

She did not let Chunxue and Dongmei, who were standing behind her, take action.

Making tea yourself and serving the tea sets is actually an elegant thing.

Especially at this kind of gathering, you usually don't use fake maid hands.

Of course, in addition to tea sets, there are also dried fruits, candied fruits, preserved fruits, melon seeds, hazelnuts, fresh lotus seeds, fresh water chestnuts, fresh water chestnuts, pears, jujubes, citrus, etc. on the table, as well as various pastries.
