MTL - Little Cardamom-Chapter 101
"Shen Yu?" Ming Tan paused, "He should be, he is not yet married, you ask this because you want to...?" Ming Tan took out Zhang Yezi and looked at the sixth princess hesitantly.
The Sixth Princess wanted to speak directly to her, but when she saw Princess Yujun, Bai Minmin and Zhou Jingwan who were playing with her, they swallowed the words again, thinking that they hadn't revealed it, and said softly, "" Nothing." With his hands behind his back, he tiptoed and walked away briskly.
Ming Tan was originally playing Shuanglu with Bai Minmin, and when Princess Yujun came over, she was eager to try, but Shuanglu could only play with two people, so Ming Tan pulled Zhou Jingwan, who was a female celebrity, and played leaf cards instead.
They were playing and chatting, Princess Yujun was asking why the Sixth Princess of Nanlu went to her camp early in the morning, Ming Tan answered halfway, and the Sixth Princess drove the horse back from the depths of the dense forest to the camp where she was stationed up.
Seeing her leave now, Bai Minmin looked at her back and patted Ming Tan: "The sixth princess, could it be that she has taken a fancy to General Shen?"
Ming Tan didn't answer, just meditating, but Zhou Jingwan and Bai Minmin exchanged a tacit look.
Princess Yu Jun didn't know Shen Yu very well, so after playing the cards, she thought for a while before asking: "Little General Shen is the younger brother of the second young lady of the Li family?"
"Exactly." Bai Minmin replied, "A-tan's distant relatives, they are called cousins. They used to live in Jing'an Hou Mansion."
Princess Yu Jun nodded her head slowly: "Then I will be able to match the number. I heard that this little general Shen is very brave and good at fighting, and he is quite trusted by His Royal Highness King Dingbei."
Ming Tan was noncommittal.
After she married into Dingbei Prince's Mansion, she almost never saw Shen Yu again, remembering how he thought about her in the past... After so long, it should fade away, right? If he still has any intentions, the husband will not keep him by his side forever.
Thinking about it this way, Shen Yu and the sixth princess are a good match.
…
At noon, the sixth princess went into the dense forest again and hunted the white fox back. She graciously carried the white fox to Ming Tan to ask for credit, saying that she would give the white fox fur to her as a cloak, and in the meantime ask her further about Shen Yu.
With short hands, Ming Tan had no choice but to tell her what he knew about Shen Yu.
"Is he your cousin?" The sixth princess was startled.
"Well, yes, it's always been called that. In fact, it's already out of the third server, and the relatives are a little far away."
The sixth princess seemed to have never heard of it, and used her limited head to think for a while: "Then if he becomes my son-in-law, I will be your cousin?"
Ming Tan: "..."
She hadn't filmed the matter yet, but she had already thought of raising her seniority.
The sixth princess asked again: "Then he is neither married nor engaged, but does he have a girl he likes? At his age, shouldn't it be time for you to discuss marriage?"
This question-
Ming Tan choked up.
"The girl I like... I guess I don't have one." She pondered for a while, then focused on the word "girl".
The sixth princess could not fail to hear the implication, she stared straight at her eyes and asked, "Could it be that there is a man you like?!"
...?
"No, no, that's not what I mean, what I mean is, the one he likes...may not be a girl anymore, maybe...already married?"
In fact, Ming Tan didn't want to hide it from her. Many misunderstandings were caused by hiding it from her. If there is something wrong, it's better to make it clear earlier, not to mention that she and Shen Yu have nothing to do with each other.
It's just that it's really hard for her to say that Shen Yu once liked her, so she can only hint and hint like this.
The sixth princess heaved a sigh of relief: "Since you're married, it doesn't matter."
She picked up a grape casually, before she put it into her mouth, she suddenly reacted. She raised her eyes suspiciously, and looked at the slightly guilty Ming Tan: "The one he likes, shouldn't it be you?"
"He...in fact...a long time ago...I think it's already—"
The sixth princess put down the grapes, her bun face tightened: "You!"
"My cousin has absolutely no intentions." Ming Tan hastily assured.
"You just look better, why are you so attractive!"
"The matter of appearance is not something I can control." Ming Tan looked innocent.
The sixth princess couldn't help but glared at her.
But she was depressed for a while, and she didn't know why, she seemed to have figured it out by herself: "Then I once liked His Highness King Dingbei, and he once liked you, so it's even."
Even though she was thinking about it, she got up and walked outside for a while, and she turned back with a grudge, and took the white fox away.
Ming Tan really thought about what kind of white fox cloak to make for a while, but now there is no need to think about it, this little princess is too realistic!
…
In the evening, Jiang Xu and his entourage returned to the camp after hunting. Today, they had a good harvest. Chengkang Emperor Longyan was very happy, and distributed all the prey he had hunted to the ministers.
Jiang Xu also hunted two Firefox as he wished.
After getting a new Firefox fur, Ming Tan's smiling eyes crooked, and he finally forgot about the depressing incident that the Sixth Princess took away the white fox just now.
"By the way, sir, cousin Shen came to the paddock today?" Ming Tan thought of something and asked suddenly.
Jiang Xu said "Yes": "Yesterday he was away on business, and he just came today." As he spoke, he glanced at her indistinctly.
Ming Tan thought that Jiang Xu didn't know Shen Yu's thoughts about him, and wanted to help the sixth princess find out about Shen Yu's recent situation: "Then what is he doing now, I seem to have heard my cousin Hua say that my cousin was promoted. gone?"
Jiang Xu patiently answered a few times, but every time he finished answering, she had new questions.
Jiang Xu finally couldn't help it, and asked in a deep voice, "What are you doing asking Shen Yu all the time?"
Ming Tan paused, and said in a calm voice as if nothing had happened: "He...is my cousin, I haven't heard about him for a long time, I care about him, what's wrong?"
She didn't say anything about the Sixth Princess' interest in Shen Yu, after all, it was a girl's family, and it was useless to say that being in love with fame was useless.
Jiang Xu said indifferently, "What kind of cousin is he who has been counted for three thousand miles?"
Ming Tan: "...?"
Jiang Xu got up suddenly, and said again: "I just remembered that your mother has always suffered from knee pain, so I'd better give that Firefox fur to your mother. You rest first, and I will go out for a while."
It seems that it is not enough to prevent Shen Yu from entering the palace on weekdays, but when they meet suddenly today, they have so many thoughts.
Ming Tan didn't know what he was thinking, he was completely confused.
Of course, there is nothing wrong with giving it to your mother, but didn't you agree to make a cloak for her? Why did my husband suddenly change his face?
After losing three pieces of fine fox fur in one day, Ming Tan suddenly became a bit sad, and Jiang Xu went straight to find Shen Yu, planning to arrange some errands for him to go out of Beijing.
Shen Yu didn't have any objection to going to Beijing to do business. Just as she was about to come down, she heard her prince beating coldly: "Since the princess is already a princess, it's better not to see her in the future. Don't have thoughts that shouldn't be there."
"...?"
"What did you say? The subordinates don't understand."
Jiang Xu looked at him quietly.
His eyes were confused and frank, he really didn't understand.
"You haven't seen the princess today?"
Shen Yu shook her head: "What's wrong with the princess?"
Jiang Xu paused, gave him a look of "take care of yourself", and left without saying a word.
The next day was a riding and shooting competition.
This kind of competition is mostly reserved for young people to show their talents. Apart from firing arrows at the beginning, Jiang Xu has not played since then. Because of Shen Yu's answer last night, she was not ordered to leave Beijing overnight to run a business, but she was able to play on the field, showing off the demeanor of the Northern Army.
In the shooting area, the sixth princess, wearing a riding uniform and holding a longbow, rushed straight to Shen Yu who was trying out the string, with a bright smile: "Little General Shen!"
Shen Yu was startled: "Princess Six."
She bent her lips, her eyes turned into crescent moons when she smiled: "You still remember me."
"..."
I just saw him yesterday, and he is not an idiot, Shen Yu was a little puzzled.
"By the way, little general Shen, you didn't ride your horse away yesterday. I had someone tie it up near my camp, and even fed it myself."
"Ah... Thank you, Princess Six." He forgot this.
"Then when the competition is over, I will return it to you personally."
Hearing "in person", Shen Yu's heart beat again: "Don't bother the sixth princess, in fact, if the sixth princess likes it, it's okay to stay."
"Really?" The sixth princess looked surprised, "Give it to me?"
Shen Yu was about to nod her head when she said again: "Then is this a token of love?"
...?
This, how is this, how is it a token of love.
Shen Yu was stunned, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses. He swallowed and replied, "Six, Princess Six, be careful! Let people hear you, yes, it will damage your innocence, Princess."
The sixth princess was puzzled: "How can this damage my innocence?"
Shen Yu didn't know where to start to explain.
The sixth princess muttered again: "It's really strange for you to make a big show. If I just say a token of love, it will damage my innocence. Then it's too difficult for you to show off a woman's innocence."
Shen Yu: "..."
To be honest, he felt the same way.
The sixth princess wanted to ask him a question, but wouldn't it damage the innocence of the embroidered pillow if she asked it directly?
She thought for a while, and then changed her method: "Little General Shen, I heard that you are not yet married, so do you have a woman you like now?" She also emphasized, "This woman includes both married and unmarried."
Shen Yu was a little dazed, he had never met such a direct woman, his tongue was tied.
"Could it be that you guys are innocent too, and I'm hurting your innocence by asking me like this?" The sixth princess fell into deep confusion. Suddenly, she thought of something, "So, you hugged me in the forest yesterday." Me, this should be more serious, right? Shouldn't you marry me?"
