The wheels kept ringing, and Bao Zheng and Zhang Yuxi were a little silent in the carriage. Bao Zheng really couldn't say anything to tell Zhang Yuxi that he didn't know much about this woman who was about to become his wife. He didn't know why he helped Zhang Yuxi this time.

After a moment of silence, Zhang Yuxi took the lead in breaking the silence: "Brother Bao, in the future, you will recover your previous memory. You must not forget that you have a contracted wife like me."

After Zhang Yuxi finished speaking, she turned her head out the window. Bao Zheng didn't know what she was thinking about. Bao Zheng really didn't know how to answer Zhang Yuxi's words.

The magistrate's prefecture was not far away. After only half an hour of carriage, he arrived at the gate of the magistrate's prefecture. From a distance, you can see that the magistrate's prefecture was very cautious at this time. After Bao Zheng and Zhang Yuxi got off the carriage at the door, they went through investigation before entering the magistrate's prefecture. The guards were actually well-trained and looked like a regular army. It seemed that they were very likely to be the imperial guards who secretly accompanied the prince to protect the prince.

As soon as Zhang Yuxi and Bao Zheng entered the prefecture, they saw Zhang Yao walking back and forth anxiously on the marble steps in front of the main hall.

Zhang Yuxi walked over and asked with concern: "Dad, why are you here? Why didn't you accompany the prince and Lord Kou?"

When Zhang Yao saw Zhang Yuxi at this time, he spoke anxiously, "Xi'er, you're back. Your innocent sister is tearing in the garden with the prince. Hurry up and use a way to get your sister away. Just now, I wanted to go to the back garden, but Lord Kou actually took me to the side hall for tea. I've found a gap now before I came out. Fortunately, I met you two. You should go to the garden now, but I'm afraid that your sister will be unrestrained. If you hit the prince, our whole family will be unable to protect us."

Zhang Yuxi frowned and nodded, and looked back at Bao Zheng. Bao Zheng knew that she wanted to walk with him, so he followed her to the backyard garden.

As expected, Kou Zhun was drinking tea in the side hall at the entrance of the backyard, as if he wanted to keep a look for the prince. Bao Zheng did not intend to enter the side hall to greet him, but took Zhang Yuxi directly into the backyard. The guards in the backyard saw that Bao Zheng and Zhang Yuxi had not stopped him, and obviously they had received the order long ago.

As soon as Bao Zheng entered the courtyard, he could hear the sound of a piano like a fairy music. The piano sound was sometimes high and sometimes gentle, sometimes like the roar of the sea, and sometimes like the stream flowing.

The back garden of the prefecture's prefecture was larger than Bao Zheng thought. It was obvious that Zhang Yao was an elegant person. After walking around the garden for a few times, he finally saw a huge pavilion in an artificial lake covered with lotus leaves.

At this time, there were only two people sitting shoulder to shoulder in the pavilion, one was a girl in white, the other was Zhao Zhen, and in a corner of the pavilion was Murong Guiying sitting, she was drinking tea alone, as if everything in front of her had nothing to do with her.

Zhao Zhen and the girl kept laughing and laughing. The two of them fiddled with a guzheng with their hands, and they were actually playing a song together. Zhao Zhen's style is high-pitched, the style of the girl's style is soft, and it echoes each other, as if it is a fairy music.

Bao Zheng and Zhang Yuxi walked into the pavilion. Bao Zheng looked at the girl with a fixed eye and couldn't help but feel a little shocked. The girl in front of him was like a smaller version of Zhang Yuxi, and the girl and Zhang Yuxi were surprisingly similar.

Bao Zheng and Zhang Yuxi came forward and were about to salute, but Zhao Zhen waved his hand to signal for exemption. This obviously did not want Bao Zheng to destroy his elegant mood. Murong Guiying signaled the two to sit next to him and poured a cup of tea for them.

Zhang Yuxi was anxious at this time and had no intention of drinking tea. Bao Zheng saw everything in front of him, but was a little calm and took a sip of the tea. Although Bao Zheng was not a scheming, he was also a discerning person. Yuxi's sister and Zhao Zhen were obviously very compatible. They sat together as if they were born together, laughing and laughing from time to time, as if they were the only two of them in the entire pavilion. As for the fact that they were in love with each other, Bao Zheng didn't want to do the unbroken couple. As for helping Zhang Yuxi to shun Zhao Zhen at the beginning, it was because Zhang Yuxi was not interested in Zhao Zhen at all.

Zhao Zhen played this piano for a long time. It took half an hour before the two stopped.

Zhang Yuxi finally had time to speak, "Your Highness, my sister Yuqi, she is young and ignorant. If there is a place where she can really collide with the prince, please forgive me. My sister Yuqi has been weak since childhood and cannot bear the cold. Yuxi asks to take her sister back to the boudoir for a rest."

The prince was about to say something, but Zhang Yuqi pouted and said, "Sister, you lied again. When did I become weak and sick? I am not as delicate as you said. I was alone in the yard all day and was so suffocated. After Brother Zhao came today, I finally had a companion to talk. I was having fun with Brother Zhao, and Sister, you come and disrupt the situation again."

When Zhang Yuxi heard Zhang Yuqi's words, she immediately said it so much that she was speechless and sweating on her forehead.

Bao Zheng shook his head at this time, and finally knew why Zhang Yao and Zhang Yuxi were so worried that this sister would be with the prince. Such an innocent and unrestrained little girl, not to mention that she would be taken as a concubine by the prince, even if she went to the prince's mansion to be a maid, she would probably be hurt by others. The most ruthless in the emperor's family, if Zhang Yuqi entered the prince's mansion, it would be no different from jumping into a fire pit.

Zhao Zhen said at this time, "Sister Yuqi! We have been chatting for a few hours. Maybe you are really tired. I don't want Sister Yuqi to be really tired. You should go back to the boudoir to rest. Pay more attention to your health. I will definitely come to you to relieve your boredom tomorrow." Zhao Zhen actually called himself "me" in front of Yuqi. He was obviously influenced by Yuqi, putting down the airs of the imperial family, and just wanted to make Yuqi happy. Bao Zheng saw all this in his eyes.

As soon as Zhao Zhen finished speaking, Zhang Yuxi seemed to have received a general amnesty and said, "Since the prince has fulfilled it, Yuxi will take her sister back to the boudoir. Yuxi and her sister will say goodbye."

After Zhang Yuxi finished speaking, he stepped forward and pulled Yuqi up a few steps and left the pavilion. When he left, he looked at Bao Zheng intentionally or unintentionally. Bao Zheng could guess that she wanted her to persuade the prince to give up Yuqi, but such a difficult thing was a bit too hard for Bao Zheng.

Zhao Zhen watched Yuqi leave foolishly until he disappeared into the winding path in the garden. After a while, Zhao Zhen came to his senses.

Bao Zheng was about to speak, but Zhao Zhen waved his hand and said, "Bao Zheng, I know what you want to say. Actually, I am not stupid. I know that the people in the Zhang family do not agree with me approaching Yuqi. However, when I saw Sister Yuxi by the Shishui River, I could only say that I was amazed. When I met Yuqi in the prefecture, I seemed to have my heart secretly taken away by her. This feeling is something I have never seen before."

Bao Zheng did not expect that Zhao Zhen was only thirteen years old and had such complicated feelings. He spoke so maturely that he was similar to adults.
