Chapter Ninety-Five: A Covenant
Su Cen's clothes and belt flew up, her body was vigorous, and a long sword slashed through the courtyard, startling birds and birds. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
It was still cold in the spring morning, but Su Cen was dressed thinly, he was proficient in swordsmanship, and his toes did not make a sound when he stepped on the branches and leaves, and his sword was faster and faster with the music...... As swift as lightning, as brave as a goshawk, the music was faster, and you could imagine how delicate the fingering was to make the music so clear, Suzen was not flustered, but faster, his figure was no longer clear, and he could only faintly see the fluttering clothes.
Suddenly, he heard a "bang", Su Cen slammed his feet, put his long sword into the sheath, and turned around and jumped in front of the stone table.
Su Chi in front of the stone table smiled: "Big brother, you lost!" ”
Su Cen pursed his lips and took the tea that Dongyu had just served: "Nonsense! This silk string is very tough, don't you want to hold it like this suddenly? ”
Su Cen made a bet with Su Chi to see if his swordsmanship was fast or Su Chi's fingering was fast, and there was no result after half an hour. Su Chi moved his mind and jumped the strings tightly with his fingers to make the illusion that the strings were broken, and Su Cen hurriedly put away the sword.
"Soldiers don't get tired of cheating, can't big brother not afford to lose?" Su Chi handed the piano to Si Fu, and Si Fu carefully put it away, this pipa is Su Chi's most beloved, and he doesn't like people to touch it.
Su Cen took Zhou Cong's tea, turned around and patted Su Chi's head: "Your methods are a little despicable!" ”
Su Chi didn't care, slapped Su Cen's hand away, and praised it: "Black cat and white cat, catching a mouse is a good cat." ”
Su Cen motioned to Zhou Cong to add tea to Su Chi: "Okay, I am willing to lose the bet, what do you want?" ”
Before Su Chi could answer, Dongyu had already come in from the courtyard and saluted: "Girl, childe, the concubine Niangniang has given a gift." ”
Su Chi looked at Su Cen in silence, the tea in Su Cen swayed, and teased Su Chi: "Auntie loves you, recently this thing has been sent here one after another!" The palace people who come and go are also hard, so it is better to take you to live in the palace and save trouble! ”
Su Chi looked at Su Cen for three points, and saw that Su Cen was uncomfortable, so he simply fired at Dongyu: "How many years have you been in the Su family?" How to deal with the things given by the palace, and the girl has to do it? What do you want you to eat? ”
In normal times, Su Cen is by no means a person who is angry with others, although he is from a noble background, he is also a well-educated and excellent son. Thinking of all the things he found, his father's repeated cover-ups, and the concubine's courtesy and thoughtfulness to Su Chi, he was indeed a little upset and faintly uneasy today!
Dongyu knew that he had suffered an unwarranted disaster, and he didn't defend himself, so he just knelt down and hung his head: "Everything has been collected, it's just, it's just ......"
Dongyu is a proper person, it is a little unusual to spit out like this, Su Chi didn't want Su Cen to have another seizure, so he simply said: "What?" ”
Dongyu raised his eyes gratefully, and instantly lowered his head again: "The concubine also gave a few people." After thinking about it, he added: "It's the opera and musician in the palace." ”
Su Chi suddenly felt that the temperature of today's tea didn't seem to be suitable, pursed his lips and didn't speak, Su Cen rolled his eyes: "Auntie is really concerned!" His words were not sour, but they were intriguing.
Su Chi touched his sideburns and wordlessly instructed Dongyu to get up: "Since it was delivered, let's stay first!" He turned his head and asked Su Cen again: "I'm just going out to listen to a play, why is this?" ”
Su Chi didn't say that it was okay, but as soon as he said Su Cen, he was angry: "How many times have I told you, if you like to listen to operas, just set up a stage at home, as for running out of the city twice in three days?" Do you want a girl's reputation anymore? "There are even rumors in Jinling that the nine girls of the Su family have raised a little white face on the stage, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is helpless, the good golden crown glows green, but Su Cen can't say these words to Su Chi.
Although Suchi's visits to Taoqiu Opera Club are not high-profile, they do not deliberately conceal it, and it is not difficult for people who want to check it. What's more, she doesn't care so much about fame, and she doesn't care about it at the moment: "What do I want to do?" The girl next to her wants a reputation in order to marry a man with status and status, and if she has a crush, she must worry that her reputation is too bad and will be disliked. But what do I have to worry about? I wish I would be disliked. Born in the hairpin Sakura clan, educated by poetry and books, who can say a word about my upbringing? ”
Su Cen saw that she didn't care about her own affairs, and said that the emperor was not in a hurry to kill the eunuch, but she was reasonable: even if she had a bit of gossip, who would take it seriously? As the concubine of the Su family, Su Chi's marriage is destined to fall into power and politics within the palace walls, as for what indecent little fun she has, who would really care?
Su Cen was no longer entangled in this, "You entered the palace to see the prince yesterday?" What to do with Su Jing? Su Jing's mind is not very restless, if she comes and goes in the East Palace a lot, it will inevitably not give birth to any variables. It's one thing for Su Cen not to want Su Chi to marry into the East Palace early, but it's another thing if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince thinks about others.
"It was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who sent someone to pass on the words, and I went over to sit down, as for taking the fourth sister with my aunt." Although the concubine element pool changed her name to "aunt", Su Chi is often not used to it.
Su Cen saw that Su Chi looked a little hesitant when he spoke, and couldn't help asking, "What's wrong?" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also asked you about listening to the play? Su Cen was a little unhappy at this time, the prince looked peaceful on his face, and he was so cautious in private? As soon as Su Cen's "sister control" mood came up, she really couldn't hold it back.
"I mentioned it, but he said that if he likes it, he will go for a walk, and he can accompany me when he is done with it for a while. He also said that most of the dramas in Jinling are not good at singing, and I have the opportunity to find famous actors from Nanqi to sing. ”
Suzen was a little surprised, so he leaned forward and leaned back in his chair.
Su Chi thought about it, and still mentioned the prince's strange expression when he left yesterday. Yesterday, Su Chi came out of the prince's place, and the prince sent Su Jing to get something, but when Su Chi came out, he suddenly asked: "If the wind and rain are great, can the Su family be willing to help each other in the same boat?" ”
Su Chi was a shining god, standing silent, and looked up sharply only to see that Ning Lizhen's eyes were clear and thorough, without the desire for power, and had nothing to do with calculations, it was still moonlight and clear, comfortable and leisurely.
Before Su Chi could answer, Ning Qiongzhen inserted a step shake in his hand into Su Chi's sideburns: "You haven't returned to Jinling on your birthday, you can't accept this gift!" ”
Su Chi was in a trance, only to see that it was a golden hairpin, reflecting Ning Lizhen's pale yellow prince's regular clothes, and the indescribable coordination was reflected. Every year he gives birthday gifts, and Su Chi is used to it, so he just touched it with his hand and accepted it generously. A few days ago, Su Chi returned a lot of gifts from the East Palace, but they were all relieved with a smile at this moment. Su Chi looked up at Ning Lizhen, he was looking down at her, his eyebrows and eyes were smiling, warming the spring cold around him.
Su Chi's lips could only smile on his lips, but his heart tightened, and some things seemed to be developing out of expectation.
Su Chi told Su Cen about the prince's question, and Su Cen chewed slowly, "But whenever His Royal Highness the Prince asks, you only don't know if you ask three questions, and it's good to push the affairs of the court to me or my father." ”
Su Chi motioned for Zhou to go down from them, and then asked Su Cen in a low voice: "Daddy really has a side mind?" Want to support the new king after losing both? ”
Su Cen's hand holding the tea froze, and then sat up straight: "Ah Chi, how can you have these weird thoughts?" Father wants you to be estranged from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in order to avoid jealousy of Your Majesty, you don't have to think too much. ”
Su Chi obviously didn't believe it, "Father has a crush on that one?" Su Chi's hand pointed to the Qinghe Palace.
Su Cen was shocked, "Don't talk nonsense!" Looking at Su Chi's stubborn eyes, Su Cen lowered his voice: "You remember: my father will not choose whoever he chooses, and he will definitely not." Shu's disaster, the Su family is the source, and it is a secret report written by his father. ”
Su Chi was shocked: "How is it possible? Su Chi can still remember Su Yuan's melancholy and the hesitation of rescuing Shu Yunjing when he recalled that day, how could it be?
"Don't ask me how I know, and don't ask my father, it's true. The Su family and the Qinghe Wangfu are enemies, you must not think about him. Su Chi and King Qinghe met in Liaocheng, and later Su Chi never mentioned it, Su Cen always felt that there was something strange in it, and wanted to ask but didn't know how to speak, so he took the opportunity to knock.
Su Chi's mind was broken, and he heard Su Cen say: "Let's take you to climb the mountain tomorrow, the spring is just right, but you can't live up to it." ”
"I'm not going, I'll have an appointment tomorrow."
"Whose covenant?"
"Secret."
When Sucen went back, Dongyu came to ask for instructions: "How to settle the few people sent by Niangniang?" Childe just said that either he would simply send people directly to the Taoqiu Opera Club, and it would be convenient for the girl to listen to the drama in the future, or it would not be troublesome to set up a stage at home. ”
Su Chi almost dropped the teacup in a few cases: "How to deal with it, how to deal with it, find a Zhuangzi and send it over, out of sight." "If you send it to Yiya early, how can you live in peace? Isn't that a slap in the face? Compare these people with Yi Ya, are they worthy?
