Ying Huaizhen saw that Guo Jianyi was coming, and hurriedly stood up, only to call "little cousin", Guo Jianyi had already smiled and said: "Although I haven't been here recently, I faintly heard that you are concentrating on practicing. ”

Ying Huaizhen couldn't help but be a little ashamed, and said with a smile: "I'm just playing around by myself, I know everything, it must be the big ingots talking nonsense, I'm going to look for him when I go back." When Guo Jianyi was allowed to sit, he asked the little maid to serve tea.

The two sat opposite each other, Guo Jianyi looked at her for a while, nodded and said: "It's a little richer than before, it can be seen that my cousin came back well, if you come back earlier, you will definitely be better soon." ”

Ying Huaizhen said: "It's strange and pitiful, I was fine when my father didn't come back." ”

Guo Jianyi smiled, Ying Huaizhen suddenly smelled a familiar aroma, just in the midst of the strangeness, Guo Jianyi looked at her expression, and understood, because of the smile: "What's wrong?" ”

Ying Huaizhen said curiously: "How can it seem to have the fragrance of golden plum...... And ......" She was extremely puzzled in her heart, but it was difficult to say: it turned out that she only smelled a trace of the fragrance of plum at this moment, but it was just like the hundred-year-old plum tree that she smelled in King Su's mansion yesterday.

When Guo Jianyi heard this, he laughed a few times and said, "If you don't feel it, I simply won't take it out." ”

Ying Huai was really surprised, and saw Guo Jianyi raise his hand, and carefully took out a flower branch from his big sleeve, the golden color of the branch was dazzling, but what was the blooming plum?

Ying Huaizhen looked straight at it, and said after a while: "Little cousin...... Where did this come from? "Only if he had brought it from the courtyard, or if he had brought it from outside, from anywhere.

Unexpectedly, Guo Jianyi smiled at Yan Yan and said, "I also went to King Su's Mansion yesterday...... I heard that you were also there, but I didn't meet it, because I heard those people say that there is a very good plum tree in King Su's mansion, so I dared to ask King Su for permission and broke the plum blossom of this branch, just to borrow flowers to offer Buddha...... I don't know if you're broken too.,But,It's just a little bit of my heart.reads();。 ”

As he spoke, he took the flower branch and sent it to Ying Huaizhen.

Ying Huaizhen didn't expect this to be the case, and after being stunned for a while, he took the plum blossom and looked at it in his eyes for a while, and was moved in his heart, so he said: "Little cousin ......" How could he have thought that Guo Jianyi was so heartfelt? Yesterday she stood by the flower tree for a long time, but because of something in her heart, she did not think of breaking a branch or something, and he specially brought it to her.

Guo Jianyi still smiled: "It's just 'talking about giving a spring', do you like it?" ”

Ying Huaizhen nodded, and the chaotic/confused plum blossoms on the branches were reflected in his eyes, making his eyes flicker, and said, "I like it very much, it's just ...... I also put my heart into it. ”

Guo Jianyi said with a smile: "Where is it, I'm afraid you've seen it too, it's not rare...... It's good to like it. ”

Ying Huaizhen took the plum blossom and raised her eyes to look at Guo Jianyi, if so, there was a small reflection of him in her eyes. Guo Jianyi also looked at her, and she could see the shadow of herself in her eyes clearly, and at this moment, there was a trace of joy.

Ying Huaizhen couldn't look at it anymore, so he got up under the excuse and asked the maid to take a plum bottle and insert this plum plum.

Guo Jianyi only watched her every move intently, and when she turned around, she slowly lowered her eyes again and raised her hand to drink tea.

Huai Zhen returned to his seat, thought about it for a while, and said, "Little cousin, don't do this for me in the future...... How can I get so happy? ”

Guo Jianyi said: "I have my own heart, if you like it, then you are very good, why bother to say these outsiders?" ”

Ying Huaizhen was speechless for a while, then hung his head again, and after a moment, he suddenly thought of what King Xi said yesterday, so he tried to ask again: "Little cousin, I accidentally learned something yesterday...... You probably know all about it? It's your home...... What about Sister Bailu? ”

When Guo Jianyi heard her mention it, she wrinkled her eyes slightly, nodded and said, "Are you talking about Bai Lu's family affairs...... Of course I know. ”

Huai Zhen saw that his face was not full of pleasure, but as if he had hidden worries, so he asked, "Is my little cousin unhappy?" ”

Guo Jianyi looked at her again, and after a while, he said, "Since you asked, I won't hide it...... I don't really like it. ”

Huai Zhen was stunned, it stands to reason that marrying the royal family, no matter what kind of family it is, I am afraid that I will be happy and grateful to Dade. What's more, although others don't know, she understands: King Xi in the previous life was the one who finally ascended to the throne, if he became his princess, it would be the destiny of Mu Yitian, wouldn't it be a family glory?

Huai Zhen lowered his voice and asked, "What about this?" Why not? ”

Guo Jianyi was still frowning, and said, "I'...... I don't want to be involved with the royal family, and I don't want my sister to be in the royal ......."

Huaizhen was stunned for a moment, although he understood Guo Jianyi's concerns, but he ...... Then he said: "Do you feel that you are in the royal family, what are the things?" ”

Guo Jianyi bowed slightly, and sighed: "I only have this one girl, I didn't want her to go this way, but I didn't expect to escape once, but after all, I came again." ”

Huai Zhen didn't know that Guo Bailu wanted to draft into the palace before, so he hurriedly asked: "So what does Sister Bailu think, is she willing?" ”

Guo Jianyi smiled bitterly: "Bai Lu and I think very differently, but she likes it." ”

Huai Zhen reassured: "In this case, the little cousin still doesn't have to worry too much...... Sister Hengzhi Bailu also likes it, maybe ...... Is it a good thing? ”

Guo Jianyi lowered his head and was silent, Ying Huaizhen saw that he was really worried, so he searched his stomach and thought about it, and then persuaded: "And...... I see King Xi's palace, it seems that he is a good person, if he really gets married, he should not treat Sister Bai Lu badly, little cousin, don't worry about reads();. ”

When Guo Jianyi heard this, she naturally knew what she meant thoughtfully, so she took her worries away, looked up at Huaizhen, and said with a smile: "I told you to comfort me, rest assured...... What's more, even if I am not happy, there is no way, am I alone, do I have to fight against everyone in the world? ”

Guo Jianyi said the last sentence, but he really felt it, after all, Emperor Cheng also agreed with this family business, and because Guo Jianyi was young and promising, Emperor Cheng did not mean to lift the minister.

And Emperor Yiyue, what else can I say? What's more, no matter how far away, just talk about the family...... Whether it is his mother or Guo Bailu, they all like it, and he is the only one who is unhappy.

Thinking of Zhao Yongmu, the king of Xi, although he looks really good, he ...... Guo Jianyi recalled in his heart what Huaizhen said, "King Xi is a good person", thinking about it, just sighing.

The two sat opposite each other for a while, because they talked about the royal family, Guo Jianyi suddenly thought of another person, and asked Huai Zhendao: "Last time you entered the palace, did you see Zhaorong Niangniang?" ”

Huai Zhen saw him ask about the cigarette, so he said, "But isn't it?" The emperor specially asked me to meet Sister Hanyan. ”

Guo Jianyi smiled slightly and asked, "Is she okay?" ”

Huaizhen didn't want to tell him about Ying Hanyan being oppressed by the palace concubine, so he only nodded and said, "It's good to see...... Why did you suddenly ask about your sister? ”

Guo Jianyi stared into her eyes and did not answer.

Ying Huaizhen didn't know how, he looked at him for a while, and then he saw a few points, and then asked, "What does my little cousin want to say to me?" You...... Don't you know what? ”

Guo Jianyi saw that she was a little nervous, so she smiled slightly and said, "It's nothing, don't worry, it's just ...... I'm also happy for her, ordinary people are in the palace, and it is extremely difficult to get out, but even if they come out, what if they come out? I'm afraid it's also difficult, and you have to pay attention everywhere...... That's why I don't want your sister to get contaminated with those ......."

Ying Huaizhen knew Guo Jianyi's temperament, and naturally understood that he would never say something irrelevant to her for no reason.

Guo Jianyi saw her suddenly frowning, so she asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Ying Huaizhen bit his lip, but he didn't know whether to tell him or not, at this moment, he suddenly heard a smile outside, and it sounded like Ying Cui Yingyu's voice, and said: "Why is it silent, could it be that this lazy girl is asleep?" ”

Ying Yu smiled: "It's so lively outside, she sleeps well, so she can't help but make her up." ”

As the two of them spoke, they walked in, and at this moment Ying Huaizhen had already stood up, and said, "Why are the sisters here?" ”

Ying Cui saw Guo Jianyi at a glance, and her face was a little uncomfortable, but Ying Yu laughed and said, "Why did I run back, it turned out that my little cousin was here and was talking about himself!" ”

Ying Cui heard that she didn't hold her mouth again, so she pulled her sleeve hard, and Ying Yu looked back at her and said, "What's wrong?" ”

Seeing this, Guo Jianyi smiled and said: "Since you are all here, you can talk to Huaizhen freely, and I am also about to go to the front to reads();." With that, he said goodbye to the two of her, nodded to Huaizhen, and went away.

Ying Yu saw that Guo Jianyi was gone, so she was surprised: "Why did the little cousin leave as soon as we came?" ”

Ying Cui sighed: "It's not you yet? The exit is nonsense, and I don't know how to converge at all. ”

Ying Yu's eyes widened and he asked Huaizhen, "What did I say again?" ”

Ying Huaizhen said: "That's it, I didn't say anything, my little cousin just said that he was leaving, you hadn't entered the door at that time, just come in and sit." So he let the two of them sit inside.

Ying Yucai said again: "We were happy to eat and drink, and when we saw that you were gone, we knew that you were hiding and idle, so I came to see you with my sister." ”

Just as he was saying a word, he heard some laughter outside, Ying Yu couldn't help but look out, and said, "We just came, who is so fast?" ”

Ying Huaizhen had heard Chunhui's voice the loudest, and immediately thought of Ling Juelai, and frowned for a while, but he couldn't avoid it at the moment, so he had to remain silent and wait for the changes.

Sure enough, it was Ying Chunhui Ying Pei and Ling Jue who came, because they had invited the old lady to say goodbye, and they were worried about Ying Huaizhen's qin, so they simply came by the way.

Ying Yu Yingcui hurriedly got up to salute, Huaizhen also got up, Chunhui smiled: "Sister, don't think we're noisy?" This year, and we have to enjoy it once, you know, in less than a month, we will be in that cage! ”

Ying Pei smiled and said: "Brother, hurry up and be lucky, even if you want to see your sister's piano skills, you don't need to say that it is so pitiful and terrible." ”

It turned out that after the New Year, in February, it was the time for the examination, and this year all three of them were going to take the examination. That's why Chunhui said so.

Ying Huaizhen said: "It's not that I don't want to, it's just that I'm really not good at playing the piano, I'm just afraid that the sound is unbearable, but it will disturb the mood of several of you. At the end, I couldn't help but smile.

Unexpectedly, Ying Yu listened, made a fuss first, and pulled Ying Cui and said, "We came just in time." He also urged Huaizhen to say: "Sister, it's all my own family, what are you afraid of, tell us about it." ”

Ying Huaizhen was unwilling, his eyes turned around, but he saw Ling Jue standing beside Chunhui, just looking at her.

Huai Zhen looked at Ling Jue, and suddenly thought: "Why should I just excuse myself, they don't know that I don't play well, but they think that I deliberately took Qiao...... It's better to just play it, whatever it looks like, and they will naturally die......"

So Ying Huaizhen said: "Then I won't shirk, but don't laugh, otherwise you won't listen to me again for the rest of your life." ”

As he spoke, he smiled and walked to the inner room, and sat behind the piano table, and these people followed in, and sat down separately, only listening to her stroking the piano.

Ying Huaizhen is the most familiar with the "Yangguan Three Stacks", when he thought about it for a while, he started to stroke it, the technique is not very skilled, and the tone is slightly dull, just serious.

In an instant, a song was just a song, Ying Cui Yingyu looked at each other, only to feel that although the tone was good, it was still not the best.

And Chunhui's mother, Chen Shao's grandmother, is a talented girl who knows how to play piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, Chunhui has heard and seen, and naturally has the best taste, and at this moment listened to the song played by Ying Huaizhen, so he only nodded and said, "It's okay." ”

Ying Pei smiled: "Sure enough, it's good, I like reads();." ”

Ying Huaizhen looked at everyone one by one, and finally only looked at Ling Jue, but saw him silent, his eyebrows frowned slightly, Ying Huaizhen sneered slightly on his lips, and he had guessed what he was going to say.

Just as Ying Pei asked Ling Jue, "How does Xiao Jue feel?" ”

Ling Jue lowered his eyes and thought for a long time, and said, "My sister has no talent for music. ”

Ying Huaizhen guessed this, and there was a sneer in his heart. Ling Jue raised his eyes to look at her, and said quietly: "But this piano rhyme is excellent, which has its own true feelings, although I am not an expert, but I also know, if you are only familiar with the hands, practice a few more times, anyone can play it very well, but if there is love in the music, it is rare, so I feel that although my sister has no talent in music, she plays a good song, very good." ”

When Chunhui heard this, he was moved, and couldn't help nodding, feeling that Ling Jue's words were reasonable, and at the same time feeling ashamed in his heart: it turned out that he only felt that Huaizhen's methods were rusty, and what he played was not in a state of flowing water, so he only felt that it was not good, but now he was narrow-minded.

And Ying Huaizhen couldn't help but be shocked when he heard Ling Jue's words. It turned out that she thought to herself that Ling Jue must not be able to say anything good, who knew that this was the case?

Before Minli got married, she talked to her about playing the piano in the Tang Mansion, Ying Huaizhen said that she had practiced it for a while, but she gave up because of "disturbing people's moods".

Ying Huaizhen is also self-aware, knowing that he has no talent in this, and Ling Jue's sentence is not mean, but the truth.

Therefore, when she saw that everyone was waiting, she changed her mind, and just wanted to play it like this, so that everyone would die, and let Ling Jue know that she did not have any "excellent piano skills", and then scared him away with the sound of the piano that "disturbed people's hearts", and she would not worry about it from now on.

Who would have thought that the same person, the same piano skills, would give him a completely different judgment?

Ying Huaizhen was puzzled, just looked at Ling Jue, who knew that Ling Jue was about to stare at her, his eyes were facing each other, Ying Huaizhen saw that his eyes were clear and moving, it was when he first met Ling Jue in his previous life, he had fascinated her eyes.

Ying Huaizhen shook his head, and hurriedly lowered his head, just to adjust the state of the strings.

At this moment, Ying Yu felt a little bored, and thought of something in his heart, so he interrupted: "Have you heard?" How did I hear that Sister Bai Lu is going to become Princess Chengxi? ”

Ying Huaizhen heard this, only then did she raise her head again, and looked at Ling Jue at first sight: because she knew that Ling Jue and Bai Lu had a marriage contract, and when she went back to Ling's mansion, she understood that Ling Jue Bai Lu had intentions, and when she heard Ying Yu suddenly mention this matter, she couldn't help but feel a pang in her heart, wanting to see how Ling Jue reacted, but was she extremely disappointed?

Who knew that when he saw it, he was stunned again, only to see Ling Jue's face calm, as if he hadn't heard it, but Chunhui smiled: "But what, my little cousin is here today, let's congratulate him." ”

Ying Cui also said: "It's strange that Sister Bailu didn't come today, if she becomes a princess in the future...... It's even harder to see each other. ”

A few words from you, a word from me, Ying Huaizhen looked at it, and from time to time he paid attention to Ling Jue's face, but he still didn't see any expression.

Ying Huaizhen was puzzled, and couldn't help staring at his expression carefully, and he couldn't take his eyes off it, when he suddenly raised his eyes, and he looked straight at her again! Ying Huaizhen was startled when he met the clear eyes at first glance, his hands were originally on the strings of the void piano, but at this moment, he pressed it suddenly, and it made a "boom" sound.

Everyone was startled, and they all looked at her, Ying Huaizhen was really embarrassed, and his face couldn't help but redden, so he lowered his head again, and Ling Jue smiled slightly when he saw this.

Let's say that on this day, Ling Jue returned to Ling's Mansion from the Ying Mansion, * took it, saw that his face was thin red, knew that he had drunk wine, and saw that his eyes were faintly happy, and he couldn't help but read very rare in his heart.

It turned out that * also knew that Guo Bailu had a marriage contract with Ling Jue, and learned from Ling Jingshen that Ling Jue Bailu had some intentions...... Recently, it has been said that Bai Luding was given to King Xi, so both * and Ling Jingshen were a little worried about Ling Jue, for fear that he would be depressed and unhappy when he found out, and because he would try to take it, this worry was doubled.

At this moment, seeing a slight joy on Ling Jue's face, he couldn't help but be surprised, and when Ling Jingshen came back in the evening, he told him about it.

Who knew that Ling Jingshen listened, but he was not surprised, and only said: "Xiao Jue has gone to the Ying Mansion today......

* Seeing that his face was not carefree, he said, "Isn't it?" I didn't want him to go...... You know that there are a lot of people there, and that Guo Langzhong is also there, how can you not talk about it? I've been scared, I'm afraid that Xiao Jue will know about Miss Guo's decision to Prince Xi, but I didn't expect to see him, didn't I know about it? ”

Ling Jingshen laughed a few times and said, "You think wrong, how can there be a truth that you haven't heard?" It's just that...... Xiao Jue was afraid that he didn't care about that person anymore. ”

Puzzled, he asked, "What does this mean?" ”

Ling Jingshen said: "He has another person in his heart, so naturally he won't take Bai Lu to heart, whether she is married, or who she marries, and what does it have to do with Xiao Jue?" ”

* Hurriedly grabbed him and asked, "Tell me quickly, who is in Xiao Jue's heart?" Only then did he ask, and suddenly reacted that Ling Jue had gone to the Ying Mansion today, and said for a while: "Could it be someone from that mansion?" ”

Ling Jingshen glanced at her and smiled slightly: "I'm afraid it's her." ”

* was so anxious that he couldn't do it, so he urged him to say quickly, but Ling Jingshen sighed again and said, "You still don't understand? Isn't it a true girl? ”

* After hearing this sentence, his face changed greatly, and when he was about to say "how is it possible", he thought about it, Ying Huaizhen's appearance and temperament, if Ling Jue looked down on her, it would not be surprising.

* After thinking about it, he twisted his eyebrows and asked Ling Jingshen, "Why aren't you in a hurry at all?" Do you really want to like a real girl? ”

Ling Jingshen was stunned for a moment and said, "That's okay, as long as Xiao Jue likes it." ”

* opened his mouth, and finally said: "However, Huaizhen's girl ......" always felt very inappropriate, but I didn't know how to say it.

Ling Jingshen took her into his arms, and then whispered in his ear: "Maybe Xiao Jue is just a mistake for a while, and after a while, it may not be ...... to let go of his hand like Bai Lu."

* Listened, muttered: "Then what if the little girl is really moving?" ”

Ling Jingshen was silent for a moment before he said again: "If it is true, then it is naturally the creation of that girl......" As he spoke, he laughed lowly.

Two days later, Ling Jingshen went to the ministry because of something, and saw a person coming out of the street in front of him from a distance, riding a horse in the direction of the palace.

When Ling Jingshen saw this, he slowed down the reins of the horse, and slowly watched Xiao Tang go away before turning around again.

After walking like this for a while, he suddenly saw a carriage coming slowly, and in front of him were two eunuchs in the palace, Ling Jingshen looked carefully, and saw that it was actually the car of the Ying Mansion, so he took the horse to the side, watched the carriage pass by, and also turned a corner, and went towards the palace together.
