Chapter 36: Unexpectedly Something Happened (1)

The lake waves are clear and the embankment is verdant. Pens, fun, pavilions www.biquge.info songbirds are jubilant, and vines and grass are lingering.

On a summer morning, the wind and dew are cool. Lin Yueyuan took Li Min to find a secret and peaceful place - under a forest of Lingxiao flowers that could both face the wind and shade the sun, the two sat opposite each other and read a book.

During this time, because Li Min's mood was relieved by her, the heart that had been bound was temporarily relaxed, and the progress was rapid, and the poems and essays were excellent. Lin Yueyuan didn't dare to be her husband anymore. The two just met to read books together, urged each other, and didn't want to be as depressed as before every day.

The two of them unconsciously read more than a dozen books in half a month, and it is rare to have such a quiet and comfortable time, or sit opposite each other in the bamboo forest or under the flowers and trees, and when they are tired, they cook tea and wine, and lie down on their backs. When you are excited, you will feel it and talk about it. When he was depressed, he was angry and angry. These generous and leisurely days reminded Lin Yueyuan of the frivolous years when he was a young man and Chu Yunxi in Shunan to enjoy the flute and enjoy the cranes, and the most precious thing is nothing more than the mood of leisure and studiousness, when the other nobles in the palace are competing for beauty and conceit, only the two of them have dived into the impetuous heart, indulged in the fragrance of literature and ink and books, and lived a calm and fulfilling life.

Ling Xiaohua fell from the top of the two of them like a red hydrangea, and Lin Yueyuan did not wipe it, nor did she change positions, but just closed the book at will, and sealed the fragrance of flowers into the ink fragrance on the pages, which not only contaminated the rotten atmosphere of the old book, but also left it as a bookmark.

The drowsiness was heightened by the dazzling summer sun, and she stretched and moved her stiff neck and limbs. When he turned his head to look, he saw Li Min sitting cross-legged, and a book of Wang Wei's poems was covered on his knees.

She rested her elbow on her thigh with one hand on her cheek, and watched intently. In order not to disturb her, Lin Yueyuan tiptoed past her, hid behind a tree and practiced a set of boxing techniques silently.

After practicing a set of eighteen-style boxing techniques, her cheeks were already red, sweating profusely, she sat cross-legged on the ground, gasping for breath, she looked up at the sun and estimated the time, and whispered about the slow speed of the child who went to get the fruit to relieve the heat.

There was a sudden sound of a disc breaking below, and a woman's cool scream turned into a muffled grunt as if it was blocked by something.

Lin Yueyuan was stunned, heard the sound and looked for it, walked dozens of steps to the south, and a crack seven or eight people wide appeared in front of her, she squatted down and picked up the edge of the crack, and looked inside, there was a natural stone corridor below. A brightly dressed man was holding the mouth of a palace maid with one hand, dragging her waist with the other hand and struggling to go deeper, the palace maid struggled desperately, her face was flushed, and her mouth let out a muffled scream. She vaguely felt that the palace maid was familiar, so she patiently and quietly squatted on top of the two heads to observe.

The palace maid couldn't stand it anymore, and bit the man hard, and the man screamed softly, laughing and letting go of his hand. Lin Yueyuan squatted a few steps to see more clearly, the woman had a delicate logo, long legs and a thin waist, white skin and beautiful appearance, and a cold face, she was actually the star next to Li Tan. She let out a cry of surprise, and hurriedly covered her mouth again, and lowered her body. Fortunately, the two were entangled endlessly and did not pay attention to the strange voices above their heads.

"How can the prince be so rude, although the star is an insignificant palace maid, but he is also a person next to His Royal Highness the Seventh, although I am not sorry to die, the prince is not afraid of annoying His Highness." The star said coldly, shook his hand coldly, and wanted to leave.

The man grinned, reached out against the stone wall like a scoundrel, blocked her way, and said, "I'm not afraid of annoying her, I'm only afraid of annoying you." ”

The star turned to the other side: "If the prince doesn't want me to be annoyed, let me go back." ”

The man stretched out his arms and made a gesture to hug her, but she was so frightened that she ducked back, leaning her back against the stone wall. He stretched out his arms against the stone wall left and right, wrapped her in the center, and touched her sideburns frivolously: "That's not possible, I waited for you for a long time to see you come out." You'll have to talk to me for a while. Did you receive the hairpin I gave you yesterday? ”

Picking up the star turned his face away and said hatefully: "I haven't seen any hairpins." ”

He raised his voice and exclaimed: "The hairpin of the red coral is inlaid with a big gem, you haven't seen it, is it swallowed by the little eunuch of Si'er, see if I don't peel off his skin." ”

Zhu Xing hurriedly said: "It's none of his business, I didn't ask for it, Si'er estimates that he will send it back to you later." The hairpin is too valuable, and I only pay a few taels a month, but I can't afford it. ”

He smiled and rubbed the silver jewelry on her chest, intoxicated with the girl's natural body fragrance, and said with a smile: "What is it worth, as long as you are willing, I want Your Highness to want you, to be my concubine, how many good things are yours." ”

"I don't want to. The prince gave it to others, there are many girls in this palace who are waiting for the son, not one of me, begging the son to let go. "The star pushed him in the chest, trying to push him staggered so that he could take the opportunity to escape.

The man is also a martial arts practitioner, his steps are steady and solid, she embroidered his palm and pushed, but he couldn't help him at all, he laughed and hugged her, and shouted excitedly: "Oh, my heart, liver and flesh." I just like the way you want to welcome and refuse. How many lonely palace maids in this harem are waiting for me to rescue them, why don't I rescue you first. ”

The star screamed and struggled hard. The more she resisted him, the more excited she became, and he put his hands up and down, kissing and hugging, and his behavior was extremely lewd.

This unsightly scene made Lin Yueyuan angry, and she picked up the stones beside her and bounced them at his body, hitting all three in a row. He shouted again and again, stretched out his left hand to block, and shouted: "Who is it, come out, dare to hit this son?" There is a kind of coming out. ”

His right hand was bruised by the stone, but he was still unwilling to let go of this delicate flower, and his hand grabbed her wrist.

The noise here became louder and louder, and finally alarmed the palace guards, who were scolded viciously by the man and retreated, but reported the situation to Li Can, the little marquis who was patrolling the forbidden army not far away.

Seeing that the forbidden army had attracted Li Can, Lao Yuan began to shout for help, the man raised his hand and slapped her, she used her sharp teeth again to fight back, the man screamed to let go, she hurriedly ran away and hid behind Li Can.

The man was not panicked and frightened when he saw Li Can, but leisurely tidied up his clothes, tilted his head, and patted him on the shoulder with hypocritical politeness in his arrogance, "Yo, Li Can is you." I've been in this palace for days, and you're finally willing to come out to see me. We've been playing together since we were kids, so why haven't we seen each other for a long time. ”

When Li Can saw that it was him, his face became more and more gloomy, and the hand that seemed familiar to him was also slightly sideways, and the anger could only be endured in his heart, and he had to pretend to be casual on the surface: "Zheng Yu, this girl is His Highness's person, you don't have to embarrass her, Your Highness can't do without her, and at this moment she is sending people around looking for her, and it is not too late for me to send her back, and then I will catch up with you." ”

Zheng Yu smiled proudly, and Cheng Zhu said in his chest: "She is my person, and I am about to go to His Highness to ask for her." ”

Zhu Xing was ashamed and annoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly defended: "Master Hou, don't listen to his nonsense, I am innocent." ”

Zheng Yu scolded: "Shut up, you slut, it's obvious that you seduced me first, how can you go back to serve Your Highness when you are already an unclean body at this moment?" I will give you a name and let you marry into the palace, it is to give you dignity, you don't have to be boring. If you don't have innocence, you can only survive when you go back, I'm here to save you. Li Can is not afraid of your jokes, I am such a problem, I can't help it. But don't worry, I will personally receive the punishment from His Highness, and the matter will start because of me. I won't borrow Gu to push the Tang Dynasty, Dingshan Wangfu is not a small temple, and I must be able to afford to serve His Royal Highness. ”

Li Can didn't want to entangle with him too much, he actually said this, it must be inevitable to pick up the stars, and after all, the stars are the people around Li Tan, and it is inconvenient for him to go beyond the boundaries and deal with him for him, so it is reasonable to leave it to Li Tan for adjudication. He answered him and said, "In that case, Zheng Yu, you will report the situation to His Highness." ”

Zhu Xing thought that Li Can believed his nonsense, and sobbed: "Hou Ye, I am really innocent, you must not believe this person's words, I have never done anything wrong with him, if Hou Ye returns to His Royal Highness and wants to expel me from Tanxiang Palace, then I can only die to prove my innocence." "She has a strong nature, and it is most difficult to endure the bad words of others, framing her, not to mention that Zheng Yu also slandered her innocence, she is unstoppable in shame and indignation, and she wants to bang her head against the wall in grief and anger.

Lin Yueyuan screamed, and in a hurry, she wanted to jump off to save people. In fact, Li Can had already reached out to stop the death-seeking star, and she did this because it was too much. She jumped in a hurry, the angle and strength were not controlled, and as a result, she turned over and fell straight from above. Everyone below was so frightened that they scattered, only Li Can reached out to catch her, and the two hugged each other and fell to the ground, their foreheads hitting each other.

Lin Yueyuan held his forehead and said "oops", regardless of whether he was injured or not, he just said to Xiao Xing, who was looking for death: "I found that you are really going to die and live at every turn." What's the matter, as for dying, isn't it just to prove your innocence, I can prove it. ”

Li Can rubbed his forehead and turned to reprimand her: "You still said that she, you jumped from such a high place, don't die!" ”

Zheng Yu reacted quickly: "Who are you, why are you sneaking around eavesdropping on it." ”

Lin Yueyuan stood up, patted the dirt on his body, and said generously: "I didn't eavesdrop, I've been sitting on it, it's you who are moving too much and disturbing me to study first." ”

Zheng Yu raised his eyebrows and said angrily: "It turned out that you hit me with a stone." ”

Lin Yueyuan snorted lightly and said contemptuously: "I just kindly remind you that this is the inner garden of the palace, and the prince should also have some restraint, and I heard it with my own ears and saw it with my own eyes. ”

Zheng Yu was so angry that he raised his hand and was about to move: "You girl is a fart." ”

Li Can grabbed his raised hand and said, "Zheng Yu, she is the cousin of His Royal Highness and the niece of Concubine Shu, pay attention to proportion." ”

Although Zheng Yu stopped, he still shouted unconvincedly: "How can His Highness's cousin be such a wild girl who doesn't know how to be polite!" ”

Lin Yueyuan was not easy to mess with, and immediately fought back: "Phew! The son of King Dingshan is still a scoundrel who molests the women of good families. Dressed in human skin, he is simply a brute. ”

"Presumptuous, you dare to scold me, I have to set rules for you today." Zheng Yu has to fight as soon as he starts.

Li Can stopped in front of him and shouted: "Enough Zheng Alcohol, if you are rude and troublesome, I will call the forbidden army to come." You have been with many palace maids these days*** There is a maid in front of the palace who jumped into the well because of this, but fortunately he was rescued, you look at me I don't know. You are so nonsense, you are not afraid of being accused in front of the saint, you are shameless, don't you care about the reputation of the Dingshan Palace? ”

Zheng Yu was pinched by him in the soft place, although he had a lot of anger, he had to suppress it, but he still threatened the wicked man evilly: "Good you Li Can, it is a happy event for me to meet the old people, who knows that you will repay you, you are a narrow villain." They even joined forces with outsiders to humiliate me. You are still as good at calculating people behind your backs as you were when you were a child, but you remember, I will one day pay you back with all the interest. ”

He gouged in on him and threatened to take revenge. Li Can was fearless, coldly ignoring his ugly appearance of baring his teeth and claws.

After he walked away, Li Cancai said to Zhu Xing warmly: "Okay, Zhu Xing, you go back to report to His Highness first, but don't tell him about it, in the future, if you see Zheng Yu, you can hide, don't provoke him." ”

He summoned a palace maid and helped the crying star out.

When the matter was over, Li Mincai, who had always been slow and half-beaten, asked curiously on the top: "Sister Yueyuan, Brother Can, what are you doing?" ”

Lin Yueyuan waved his hand at her, deliberately taking her away: "It's none of your business, go back to read the book, and come back carefully to Hou Ye to test your homework." ”

Li Min stuck out his tongue at her, and when he touched Li Can's cold gaze, he got up in fright and ran away.

Now the stone corridor finally quieted down, Lin Yueyuan patted Li Can's shoulder, and said with a frank smile: "Thank you." ”

Li Can turned around with his hands and said, "I'm not for you."

Lin Yueyuan shrugged his shoulders indifferently: "Then I want to thank you too." ”

She laughed, walked around in front of him, and asked curiously, "But listening to that Zheng Yu, you seem to have had a festival before." ”

Seeing that his expression became more and more cold, she snorted, feeling bored: "When I talk too much." ”

She raised her feet to leave, but Li Can suddenly spoke, and she immediately ran to him with a smile.

He pushed her away and said slowly, "When he was about nine years old, his mother took him to live in the palace, and he and I met at that time. His mother was the emperor's half-sister, Princess Guangde, who doted on him very much, so he was domineering since he was a child and often bullied others. I often fight with him, but every time he deliberately picks quarrels and provokes trouble. The last time, I punched him directly and knocked him unconscious, and the emperor learned that he thought I was bullying him and made me admit my mistake, but I didn't want to, so he punished me for kneeling all night, but I still didn't follow, and I was also beaten dozens of boards for this. I don't know how King Dingshan later knew about his behavior, and used family law, so that he couldn't get out of bed for half a month, so he thought that I was taking revenge for myself. But this is all a holiday when I was a child, and I didn't take it seriously, who knew that he actually mentioned it today. ”

Lin Yueyuan snorted disdainfully: "It can be seen that he has not been a good person since he was a child. ”

Li Can nodded and instructed: "You should stay away from him in the future, if he is arrogant and like a tiger, I am kind enough to persuade you, you don't have to be unconvinced." ”

Lin Yueyuan is a person who eats soft but not hard, when he said this, she was naturally grateful for his kindness, took the initiative to accompany him, and said solemnly: "Okay, thank you for your kindness, I wrote it down." ”

Although Li Can and her are still quarreling with each other, they are no longer as incompatible as when they first met. He knew who she was, so he never took to heart the evil words she spoke in anger, but played with her as if he were joking, and every time he was just quick to speak. Gradually, he will involuntarily care about her, although his care is always disguised in an awkward and blunt tone, and even occasionally backfires, but it is still difficult to escape Li Tan's sensitive and delicate observation, he should be happy and happy, but he can't restrain the sadness and sadness in his heart.

The red candle autumn light is cold, and the small fan flutters fireflies.

The night is as cool as water, and you can sit and watch the morning glory Vega.

Girls often have a beautiful and dreamy imagination of the Qixi Festival. The Qixi Poetry Meeting held in the East Palace is about a youth feast that brings together all the noble girls in Chang'an City, and for these noble girls, whether they can receive an invitation is a symbol of status.

Folk girls always have to get together on the day of Qixi to beg for skill, such as threading needles under the moon, making food and fruits, etc., and most of the aristocratic girls are ten fingers do not touch the spring water, and they can needle and thread embroidery is already ingenious, but they are proud of themselves in addition to the most expensive identity is not to let the knowledge and literature of the bearded men, of course, their own talent is limited to piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but this is enough to make these princesses and ladies conceited.

Forced by the majesty of the eldest sister, Chu Yunyi dragged her sick body and accepted the invitation half-pushed and half-on-the-spot, and the only thing that comforted her was that Chu Yunxi also received the invitation.

Chu Yunxi couldn't wait to avoid this kind of noisy occasion. Their Chu clan is a little cold, they like to be quiet and don't like to move, especially socializing, his father performed unsatisfactory when he was alive, even when the uncle who fought on the battlefield was leading the troops in the world, he was mainly steady and calm, very good at defense but rarely surprised. He had a mediocre relationship with his soldiers and generals, and he fought not by brotherhood where blood was thicker than water, but by iron-blooded discipline and unparalleled wisdom.

Chu Yunxi wanted to refuse, but she was afraid of hurting the eldest sister's heart, and she could also understand that Chu Yunlian, who had always been high, suddenly changed his indifferent attitude after his father was announced to be dead in order to alleviate the crisis of the Chu family, and actively enveloped the exhaustion of all forces. She has now become the biggest support and reliance of the Chu family, and this poetry meeting is also a strategy for her to make friends with the nobles of Chang'an, as her sister and a member of the Chu family, she should focus on the overall situation, and tacit cooperation is.

For the sake of this family, and indeed the whole family, they have to make some sacrifices and reluctantly do something they don't like.
