Chapter 625 Li Jiao Returns

   King Mu succeeded in throwing the task of inviting the champion marquis to King Rui. King Rui pondered for a long time, but he was still reluctant to use the original favor, so he went to Li Jiao's residence.

  Li Jiao was overjoyed when he saw Prince Rui coming over, and he greeted him with a dignified and quiet expression on his face.

   "Don't be too polite." Prince Rui stretched out his hands to help her up.

   The unique breath of a man came, and Li Jiao's face turned red.

  King Rui was a little older, but she was in her prime, and with a thin body, she looked like a handsome scholar. If she didn't want to be a concubine, she was actually satisfied.

   The girl is fair and beautiful, and her skin can be broken by blowing bullets, like a blooming flower that makes your heart sway.

   Prince Rui stared at Li Jiao for a moment, slightly absent-minded.

  Li Jiao looked in his eyes, and lowered his eyes to reveal a shy smile, and he could not help but feel a little complacent in his heart.

  The lord is clearly satisfied with her appearance, but why doesn't he touch her?

   "Cough, Jiao Niang, are you still used to it after coming to the palace?" Prince Rui asked with a light cough, sighing inwardly.

   It's really been a long time since I haven't been close to women, and my concentration has been much worse, and I almost lost my way in front of a little girl, which is really not right.

  It’s okay, it will be back to normal in more than a month.

   Li Shenyi prescribed medicines for his body, not medicines that make one's mind less lustful. He found that as the deadline approached, his self-control became worse.

   Speaking of which, I feel wronged for this little girl. He never touches her body, and it is inconvenient to say it clearly, and he does not know what she is thinking.

   Hearing Prince Rui's gentle question, Li Jiao's eyes turned red, and he said softly, "I'm used to it."

   Prince Rui took her by the hand and sat down, smiling: "If you're used to it, why are you crying?"

  Li Jiao hurriedly pressed the corner of his eyes with a handkerchief, and said bluntly, "Although the palace is very good, after all, I have lived in my mother's house for more than ten years, and I miss my grandmother and father."

Prince Rui's mansion had no concubine, and the huge mansion was managed by the concubine who had been with Prince Rui for the longest time. That concubine wanted to be a good person, so she naturally wouldn't be too lenient with her as a newcomer, but she didn't even have the qualifications to return home for three days. No.

   Can't go back, so what if she gets along well? But Jinyi is walking at night.

   Prince Rui laughed when he heard it: "Are you homesick? Then you can go back and have a look today. I will ask the steward of the palace to accompany you back."

  Li Jiao was overjoyed, lowered his head and pursed his lips with a smile: "Thank you, Lord."

   Prince Rui stretched out his hand to hook her chin and chuckled, "What are you doing with your head down?"

  Li Jiao's eyelashes flickered, and he slowly raised his eyes: "Your Highness—"

   "It's rare to go back, so it's okay to stay for a while, just come back after dinner."

   "Thank you, Your Highness." Li Jiao was overjoyed.

   Being able to stay and eat after returning to the Li Mansion is enough for others to see the favor of the lord for her.

"There's nothing to be thankful for." Prince Rui squeezed Li Jiao's hand and changed his tone, "By the way, this prince and Mu prince are going to hold a banquet together to receive the envoy of Xijiang, and I will also give you the third sister. Post, and later Chang Shi replied to me that Miss Li San was not coming. When you go back this time, I sincerely invite you, the two sisters will also have company at the banquet. "

  Li Jiao was slightly startled.

   Banquet? No one mentioned it to her before, why is Li San also participating?

   Seeing Li Jiao stunned, Prince Rui explained: "There is Princess Xijiang in the envoys of Xijiang, so this banquet specially invited some noble girls to accompany her. Miss Li San is the fiancee of the champion, if she didn't come, it would not be beautiful."

  According to the inquiries from various parties, Champion Hou attaches great importance to his fiancée. As long as Miss Li San is at the banquet, Champion Hou will naturally come. In this case, he doesn't have to show his face to invite the champion.

   When Li Jiao heard Prince Rui's words, his heart ached like a needle.

  Because he is the fiancée of the champion, the dignified prince has to pay special attention to whether he will go to the banquet? Why does Li San have such good luck!

   "What's wrong?" Prince Rui asked.

  Li Jiao returned to his senses and smiled: "Don't worry, my lord, talk to the third sister well after the concubine goes back."

   She couldn't hold back her anger, she still had a long way to go, and when the prince took that position, she couldn't be a queen or a concubine, so what would the champion Mrs. Hou be at that time? It's not like bowing your head to salute in front of her.

   Prince Rui patted Li Jiao's hand, raised his foot and walked out.

  Li Jiao sent it to the door and watched it for a while before returning to the house to get dressed.

   Ever since Bingniang hit a wall and committed suicide, and had to appease the families of the two maids who were stabbed to death by Bingniang, Mrs. Deng was in a bad mood.

   It's nothing to take out real money to appease the maid's family, but the two young maids are young and Ai, who are at the age of flowers. It's a pity to die like this.

   This is all the fault of the second child!

   After all, Mrs. Deng is getting old. After a series of bad things, her body can't stand it anymore, and she has been a little uncomfortable since yesterday.

   Hearing the maid's report that the palace sent someone to deliver the letter, and Aunt Jiao wanted to go back to her mother's house to have a look, the old lady frowned.

  What is the eldest granddaughter doing back? There must be a problem with a concubine's being able to return to her parents' home at will.

  The old lady is mature and sophisticated, and she has such a determination after a little pondering.

  Li Jiao, accompanied by the steward of the palace, returned to the West Palace with a lot of gifts. Walking on the narrow bluestone path of the Li family's house, he glanced at the cramped yard, and a sense of superiority emerged spontaneously.

  The whole West Palace is not as big as the garden of the palace, what's the fun of living in such a place all your life?

   There are also these servants. In the days when she was frustrated years ago, she would endure all kinds of eyes from them when she went out occasionally. How is it now? They were not looking at her with envious eyes.

   She is really fed up with the poverty of the West!

  Thinking of seeing his grandmother, Li Jiao stood at the door of Qingsongtang, stroked his hair, and took a deep breath.

  Her grandmother was an eccentric person who hated seeing a concubine the most, so she was definitely dissatisfied with her granddaughter who became a concubine.

   But why didn't grandma think about it, she was a concubine for the prince, no matter what, she was much better than those wives of small families, right? Not to mention marrying her to Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing.

   When she comes back this time, she wants to talk to her grandmother, and she must talk to her grandmother. With the support of her family, she will be able to straighten her waist in the palace in the future.

  Li Jiao was mentally prepared for Madam Deng for a while, but she was told by the maid that Madam Deng was ill and could not see anyone.

   Lady Li, who had eaten a closed door, was extremely aggrieved, and she couldn't show her face in front of the palace steward and others, so she had to order people to entertain the people of the palace, and bring her maid Xing'er to Qiao Zhao.

   "The big girl is looking for our girl?" Binglu stood at the door with his hips on his hips, a look of vigilance.

   Li Jiao's forehead burst into blue veins.

   This maid has an untidy face, why can she live so well until now?

   "One day I won't see the third sister. I miss her a little bit, so I just went back to the mansion to have a look."

  Ice Green pouted quietly.

   Miss us three girls? Stop kidding, she'd be an idiot if she believed it!

   "Big girl, it's really unfortunate, our girl went on a date with Champion Hou." Binglu said with a smile.

   If you have the ability, you can ask the champion to ask for someone.
