What was she afraid of? Shen Yu was most afraid that the sixth princess would mention the accidental hug when she was saving someone yesterday. The sixth princess didn't seem to think there was anything before, and she didn't mention it all the time, but now she has reacted.

He blushed and opened his mouth, but nothing came out.

The sixth princess was considerate and said: "I didn't mean to force you. If you don't want to answer, then I will compete with you later on. If I win, you can tell me?"

Shen Yu blushed, her neck was thick, and she stammered, "Yeah, if you compete with a woman, you won't win by force."

"Little General Shen, please don't look down on women," the sixth princess raised her face proudly, "My riding and shooting are really good, I want to compete with you!"

"Since that's the case, then, then you will be given three arrows."

The sixth princess didn't argue with him any more, she just drew the bow and tested the string, and said briskly with her hands behind her back: "Deal!"

Not long after, the competition began.

Ming Tan and Jiang Xu sat together, posing as a dignified and quiet princess. In fact, she thinks these riding and archery competitions are very boring, people are not handsome enough, even if they hit every shot, they are not good-looking.

Sitting quietly for a while, seeing the sixth princess and Shen Yu playing together, Ming Tan finally cheered up.

I don't know what the two said, Shen Yu made a "please" gesture, and the sixth princess stepped forward holding her bow and arrow, straightened her waist, aimed at the bull's-eye, and started shooting.

Before, she only heard the little princess bragging about herself, and she only found out that someone was shot when the rabbit was nailed to death in the forest, so she had never seen how graceful the little princess is when she shoots an arrow. Not too much.

Her little bun face was tense, she concentrated on drawing the bow, and kept taking arrows from the quiver on her back. She fired ten arrows in a row, and the arrows hit the bull's-eye.

On the other hand, Shen Yu, who played later, even hit the bull's-eye with his arrows, but he only shot seven arrows before stopping.

Ming Tan approached Jiang Xu and whispered: "Husband, do you think the Sixth Princess of Nanlu and Shen's cousin are quite suitable when standing together?"

Jiang Xu nodded rarely.

Leaving from Shen Yu's camp last night, he found the secret guards to investigate carefully, only to find out that he was thinking too much, and the little princess asked about Shen Yu, it should be because of the Sixth Princess of Nanlu.

Soon, the competition in front of him was over, Ming Tan looked at the sixth princess's little bun face with a bright smile, proudly puffed out her small chest, and took a sip of the fruit wine in a good mood.

After today's riding and archery competition, they will leave camp and go back to the city. The Nanlu Mission has been in Beijing for a few days, and they have already made plans to return the next day.

But on the way back to the city, the sixth princess suddenly got into Ming Tan's carriage sadly.

Seeing her suddenly depressed, Ming Tan asked cautiously, "What's wrong?"

"Before the competition, I made an agreement with Little General Shen. If I win, he will answer me. Now, do you have a woman you like?" She held her chin, her face full of sadness, "I just asked, and he said no."

Ming Tan breathed a sigh of relief: "Isn't that great?"

"I asked him again if he would like to be my son-in-law. He said that he is a soldier of Daxian, and he will defend his family and country until his death. How can he be the son-in-law of another country? I said he misunderstood, and I didn't mean to ask him to leave Daxian. Wouldn’t it be good to get married? Then he said, I just knew yesterday, how to talk about marriage, we need to understand each other to make a decision, but I will go back to Nanlu in the future, how can I have time to understand each other with him .”

Speaking of this, the sixth princess's whole little bun's face collapsed.

"You said he hated me so he refused repeatedly. Is it so troublesome for you Daxian to marry? Although I can ask your Emperor Daxian to fight for it by force, but if he doesn't want to, wouldn't it be more pleasing to me to do so? Suspect?"

Ming Tan thought for a while, and said carefully: "I think he didn't deliberately find excuses to refuse, you really have known each other too shortly, he needs to be cautious about marriage, and you should be even more cautious."

"Really?" The sixth princess looked at her pitifully.

Ming Tan nodded and waved again, motioning for her to come closer.

She hesitated to get closer.

Ming Tan said softly: "Just now when you were competing, I asked my husband, and my husband said that Little General Shen's riding and shooting skills are unmatched by anyone in the Dingbei Army. If he wants to, he can hit the bull's-eye just now , shoot your arrow down."

The sixth princess was stunned for a moment, then said slowly: "Then he let me in on purpose?"

Ming Tan defaults.

The sixth princess hurriedly held her hand: "Then he doesn't hate me, how can we understand each other, it's only been two days, and besides, my father has already taken care of my son-in-law in Nanlu..." At the end , she felt a little guilty.

As soon as Ming Tan thought about it, she came up with a solution, but she suddenly remembered the white fox being carried back by the little princess, and when she reached the point of her mouth, she swallowed it again.

She pretended to cough twice, and then said slowly: "Of course there is a way. It depends on whether the princess really wants to know."

The sixth princess was a little confused: "I'm very sincere."

Ming Tan didn't look at her, just smoothed the wrinkles on the clothes slowly, and thought to himself: "Winter is coming soon, I haven't made winter clothes this year, and I didn't make new clothes last year. Hey, Tang Tang Concubine, it's true that I live too frugally."

The sixth princess finally came to her senses: "The white fox fur is for you!"

"Yesterday you gave it with sincerity, that's the price, but you took it back, today it's not the price."

"Then, I'll give you whatever you want."

"Before you leave, come to the palace and roast a leg of lamb for me."

"it is good!"

Ming Tan was satisfied, and then smiled and motioned her to lean her ear over, and whispered a few words in her ear.

When the sixth princess heard this, Baozi's face brightened immediately: "Two lamb legs, this princess will roast two for you!"

Two days later, the Nanlu Mission was preparing to return. Emperor Chengkang prepared more than a dozen car gifts and a letter of condolences, which can be regarded as a token of friendship.

Ming Tan got up early in the morning to make up, and drove to the city gate to see him off in the palace carriage.

Seeing that it was Ming Tan, the sixth princess hurriedly got off her horse, and said with a smile, "I thought you weren't coming."

"How come, I promised to come and see you off, so I will come naturally."

Lue sent a brocade box at the right time, Ming Tan took the brocade box and handed it over.

"Give it to me?" Princess Six picked it up and asked curiously, "Can I watch it now?"

Ming Tan nodded: "Of course."

She couldn't wait to open it, and there was an extremely delicate sachet lying inside, she sighed intently: "It's so beautiful! Did you embroider this?"

Before getting off the carriage that day, the Sixth Princess casually asked Ming Tan where he got the sachet on His Highness King Dingbei's waist, it was so beautifully embroidered. Ming Tan took this matter to heart, and embroidered one for the little princess when he returned home.

The sixth princess couldn't put it down, she looked at it carefully for a while, pointed to the word "Chun" embroidered on the inside, and said pleasantly, "You also embroidered my boudoir name."

Ming Tan bent his lips and nodded.

"But what is this? Is this a steamed stuffed bun?" The sixth princess looked at the embroidery pattern on the sachet, and was a little confused. It looked like a steamed stuffed bun, but why did she embroider the steamed stuffed bun on the sachet.

Ming Tan couldn't help pinching her cheek: "It's the bun!"

...!

"Okay, anyway, if this happens, you will come to Beijing again sooner or later, so I won't send you any more."

The sixth princess was still a little bit reluctant, but she said so, it seems to be the same, she nodded, glanced at Shen Yu who was riding a horse with a tall and straight back like a small pine, hugged Ming Tan happily, and whispered to Ming Tan Said in the ear: "You just wait for me to be your little cousin!"

Ming Tan: "..." These sixth princesses are not very old, why are they so focused on raising their own seniority?

Shen Yu sneezed inexplicably, and subconsciously turned her head to look at the sixth princess who was whispering to her cousin Tan. She always had a bad premonition in her heart, and she was sent to **** the gift back to Nanlu for no reason. It will be too safe.

Sure enough, not long after leaving the city on the road, the sixth princess intentionally slowed down her pace. When she was walking alongside Shen Yu, she smiled and said, "Little General Shen, the return trip is long, and now we have time to get to know each other better!"

Shen Yu: "..."

It turned out she asked for it.

After seeing off the sixth princess, Ming Tan was too lazy to rest at home for several days and never went out again.

Now that the matter in Lingzhou is over, the recovery of Rongzhou seems to be on the agenda again. In the past few days, Mr. Jiang Xu was meeting guests at Wanjuanzhai, and Ming Tan didn't bother him. Winter is coming, and it is almost the end of the year, and she still has a lot of things to do.

On the other hand, Mrs. Pei rarely went back to Dingbei Palace.

She is Ming Tan's mother, so it is not unusual to come to the palace, but she thought that she is not Ming Tan's biological mother, and she is not good at treating the palace as her own back garden. .

"Mother, why are you free to come over today?" Ming Tan quickly helped Mrs. Pei to sit at the head of the flower hall, and then ordered Su Xin to serve Mrs. Pei's favorite tea and snacks.

Mrs. Pei flipped the lid of the tea and said with a gentle smile: "It's all right, I'm going to Chang Guogong's mansion today to watch the new play of Fuchun Troupe, and I'll drop by to see you."

Changguo Duke's Mansion and Dingbei Prince's Mansion, this road is so smooth that they can go back to Jing'an Hou's Mansion twice. Ming Tan understood, and signaled the maids of the royal family whom Mrs. Pei didn't know to step back for now.

After the left and right screens retreated, Ming Tan asked: "Mother, what's the matter?"

Mrs. Pei didn't go around too much, thought for a while and then asked carefully: "Recently...has your lord told you anything about government affairs?"

"Never."

Mrs. Pei pondered for a moment, and then said: "It's nothing, but I have seen your father worry a lot these few days, and I asked him, but he didn't say anything."

Mrs. Pei sighed: "Your father and I, you also know, it's all in the past, but now..." She was a little embarrassed, and after a long while, she whispered something in Ming Tan's ear.

When Ming Tan heard this, his eyes widened.
