Looking at Tang Zhenzhen's aggrieved expression, Xu Mo was just about to smile and say no when he was interrupted by Xu Chang, who had a bad expression on his face. He said in a slightly aggressive tone,"Royal brother, Zhenzhen is still young. I hope you can understand.”
The way he acted as if he was her parent was simply blinding the crown prince. His expression immediately became even worse as he looked at him with a hint of mockery."What's wrong? Didn't the palace maids teach you manners? How should he address an underage woman?”
Xu Mo's question made the General's wife nod her head secretly. She had a good impression of this young Crown Prince.
His words made Xu Chang very angry. He gritted his teeth and said," You…" There was no follow-up.
Just now, he said that the General's wife had said that he would not take it to heart. However, now that the Crown Prince had said it, he could not just brush it off.
He immediately said with some unwillingness,"I know, but may I know why Imperial Brother has come to find Tang Zhenzhen?”
Xu Mo narrowed his eyes and said coldly,""What's wrong? If you can come, then this prince can't come?"
Xu Chang naturally didn't mean that. However, he couldn't say anything after being blocked like this. He could only shake his head in denial. He watched the battle between the two princes from a corner. He opened his mouth but couldn't say anything. It was simply a war without smoke.
However, it still looked extremely intense. Seeing that the two of them were almost done, Tang Zhenzhen walked over and pointed at the longevity bun."Today is Xu Chang's birthday, so I made a birthday bun for him. Your Highness, is there anything you're dissatisfied with?”What she wanted to say was, you can eat it, but don't bully Xu Chang.
However, looking at Xu Mo's face, she could not say anything. Xu Chang, who was standing at the side, still felt that something was wrong when he heard her say this, but he still looked at Xu Mo provocatively.
Xu Mo immediately became listless. He pursed his lips and said disdainfully,"What's so good about it, bengong has as many of these things as she wants during her lifetime.”However, he would rather have Tang Zhenzhen's one, but for some reason, he did not say it out loud.
Tang Zhenzhen, who was standing at the side, immediately stood up because of his words. She did not care if the general and his wife were standing at the side. She said angrily,"Then don't eat it!"
After saying that, he was about to take away the longevity buns on the table, but the crown prince snatched them away with quick reflexes and ate them one bite at a time.
At this time, Xu Chang realized that the atmosphere between the two of them seemed to be a little strange. He immediately wanted to go over, but the General's wife stopped him.
"Zhenzhen, stop arguing. Let the Crown Prince sit down.”The General's wife glared at Tang Zhenzhen. This time, she reluctantly made way for her.
There were not many birthday buns left on the plate. Tang Zhenzhen immediately said with a bad expression,"Xu Mo, this is the longevity bun I made for Xu Chang. He can eat raw, but why are you eating so much?”As he spoke, he wanted to go up and snatch the food from the tiger's mouth.
However, he was stopped by Xu Mo. He finished the remaining longevity buns on the plate unhurriedly and nodded with slight disdain."The taste is not bad."
This made Tang Zhenzhen very angry, and Xu Chang was naturally in a bad mood. It would be strange if he was in a good mood because he did not eat any of the longevity buns that Tang Zhenzhen made for him.
It was the first time that the general and his wife saw them getting along. They were a little confused. They looked at each other and said to Tang Zhenzhen,"Be more respectful to the two princes." After saying that, he left. It was better for them not to interfere in the children's matters.
Tang Zhenzhen was extremely furious. She could not vent her anger. She could only glare at Xu Mo, then turned around and left the kitchen with the plate. Xu Mo really wanted to laugh when he saw this.
Xu Chang's expression became more and more unhappy. This Imperial Brother was really not taking him seriously anymore. He walked over and asked in a deep voice,"Royal brother, I don't know what you can change by coming over now.”He just wanted to provoke the Crown Prince, just like before.
Xu Mo narrowed his eyes and said in amusement,""Don't be so naive as to think that your acting skills are very successful. If it's for the sake of the General's Estate, I advise you not to struggle.”His purpose today was so obvious that only Tang Zhenzhen, this silly girl, could not see it.
After saying that, he walked out to help, but before he left, he said,"You'd better go back early, lest father finds out and bengong has to cover up your lie.”
After watching the Crown Prince leave, Xu Chang smashed the table fiercely. He swung his sleeve and was about to leave when he heard the laughter of two people outside.
It could be said to be Tang Zhenzhen's voice of disgust. Xu Chang walked over and saw that Xu Mo's fingers were stained with something. His expression froze as he heard Tang Zhenzhen say in disgust,"Don't cause trouble for me here.”
As she spoke, she even dismissed Xu Mo. However, he refused and wanted to stay here to learn his craft. Aunt Wang, who was watching the interaction between the two of them, could not help but laugh.
In a place where no one could see, Xu Chang was so angry that he turned around and walked out. He didn't even eat the longevity buns. He failed to steal the chicken and ended up losing the rice. Instead, he was reprimanded by the Crown Prince.
After Xu Mo finished teasing Tang Zhenzhen outside, he walked in in a good mood. Tang Zhenzhen, who followed closely behind him, did not see Xu Chang in the room. She was still a little puzzled.
He placed the plate in his hand on the table and asked curiously,""Where did Xu Chang go?"
Xu Mo had already guessed it, but he wouldn't come looking for a scolding. He found an excuse and said,""Maybe I have something to do back at the palace."
Tang Zhenzhen looked at Xu Mo suspiciously, but she could only nod in the end. She looked at the birthday bag in her hand with some pity."He's celebrating his birthday today and hasn't eaten a birthday bun yet.”
As soon as Tang Zhen finished speaking, the plate in his hand was taken away by Xu Mo. He said shamelessly,"It's okay. He can't eat it, so I helped him eat it.”
Without waiting for Tang Zhenzhen to react, she finished the longevity bun while she snatched it. The general and his wife, who had been secretly observing the place, had a strange expression on their faces.
The General's wife was still a little better. It was unknown if she had already accepted it in her heart. She even said rather proudly,"General, the Crown Prince really likes our Zhenzhen.”
The general looked up at his wife and left without saying anything. She was indeed soft-hearted. Although the Crown Prince liked Zhenzhen, what could this prove? In the face of the big picture, any true feelings would become fake.
The General's wife naturally knew what the General was thinking. She sighed and made up her mind to discuss it with Zhenzhen tonight.
The crown prince did not push his luck after eating the birthday bun. He said goodbye to Tang Zhenzhen. Tang Zhenzhen watched him leave and could not help but touch her heart. She did not know why it was beating so fast.
At night, Tang Zhenzhen was sitting on the bed thinking about what had happened today when her mother knocked on the door and came in. She quickly stood up and asked,"Mother, you came so late. Is it because Xu Chang came today?”
She tilted her head slightly. Although it was a question, her tone was very certain. The General's wife sighed and ordered the servant to leave and sit beside Tang Zhenzhen."Zhenzhen, do you really want to marry Prince Xu Chang?”
Tang Zhenzhen was a little hesitant. However, when she thought of the precious sword that Xu Chang had given her today and his concern for her, she felt that he was a good man, although she did not know why her heart was always empty.
She immediately nodded without thinking too much. The General's wife looked at her helplessly."Zhenzhen, our family has been feared by the emperor since ancient times. However, because of our loyalty and the fact that our family has generals for generations, our family is deeply rooted.”
When Tang Zhenzhen heard this, she was stunned for a moment. She was the only girl in the family. Although she knew some fancy moves, no one had ever told her about it. She had always thought that her family had a good relationship with the emperor.
"Of course, your father's relationship with the emperor is also very good. But think about it, if you really married that prince, would the emperor still be so assured about our family? Zhenzhen, we all hope that you will marry an ordinary person in the future and not get involved in the turmoil in the palace.”Although the General's wife's expression was calm, she was extremely anxious in her heart. Her tone was also aggressive.
Tang Zhenzhen was stunned. She still didn't understand the deception in the palace. She didn't know what kind of changes her choice would bring to her family.
"Really…would uncle emperor…have any opinion of father because of whom Zhenzhen married?”Tang Zhenzhen said hesitantly, but she was thinking that if Xu Mo became the emperor, would he be afraid of her because of the power in his family?
Slowly, her eyes turned into confusion and confusion. She didn't understand why the adult world was full of deception. She only wanted to marry someone she liked.
The General's wife also looked troubled.""Even if the emperor won't do anything to the general, the people in the court definitely won't want to see the strong joining forces. Zhenzhen, if Prince Xuchang is your lover, mother won't stop you, but he isn't.”Prince Xu Chang was very ambitious, but he was not the final candidate for the throne.
If Tang Zhenzhen really married Xu Chang, would she still be as innocent as she was now if the Emperor passed the throne to the Crown Prince?
Hearing her mother's words, Tang Zhenzhen slowly fell into deep thought. However, she didn't say anything. She was stunned for a while before she shook her head."Mother, I really like Xu Chang.”
Could it be that he likes you so much that you disregard the feelings of your family for him? The General's wife really wanted to say this.# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:1024201810:23AM
