76 Picking Stars: Zero Three
On the first day of lecturing to the six princesses, Xie Xing experienced the "arrogance", "willfulness" and "favored" described by others.
Xie Xing told her about "Zhuangzi", and after talking for a long time, she blinked and said, "Sir, you are so good-looking, you must have received a lot of handkerchiefs on horseback riding that day, right?" ”
Xie Xing: "......"
"Sir, don't be angry, let's eat a lychee to quench the fire!"
Xie Xing glanced at the plate of fresh lychees that had only been delivered from Lingnan early this morning, although it was indeed very attractive, but in the end she could only reply respectfully: "Princess Xie, but the minister is not thirsty." ”
"Then the gentleman will tell me about your horseback riding through the streets!"
He was so entangled that he had no choice but to tell the sixth princess about the scene of riding a horse on the street, and originally wanted to hold his serious skin, but under the unremitting questioning of the sixth princess, he finally let go completely.
Anyway, the emperor didn't come to listen to what he told the sixth princess, since he couldn't afford to offend the princess in front of him, it was better for him to answer whatever she asked.
Everyone is a little more sincere.
The sixth princess was pampered to the end, whether it was the deceased old emperor or Jinshang, she has always been pampered in the palm of her hand, which can be seen from her title.
The word Xu, which has always only been used by emperors on themselves, is given to a princess, which is really unprecedented, not to mention this dynasty, all the dynasties that can be traced back to the second example can not be found.
Raised in the deep palace, there is a big characteristic that he has no knowledge, and Xie Xing is often very broken by some of her inexplicable questions.
After talking for seven days, he couldn't wait to tear off the uniform of the Hanlin Academy on his body every day when he left the palace.
Lu Xiaofeng also asked him how the princess looked, whether she was beautiful or not.
"A little devil star who can't scold, can't beat, and can't indulge, no matter how beautiful he is, it's useless." He said angrily.
"When you say that, I'm a little curious about what a princess is like." Lu Xiaofeng propped his chin and sighed, "I tried to fight with Ximen today, obediently, his sword is really getting more and more terrifying." ”
Xie Xing snorted, "Then you're still bored with yourself?" ”
"You're not here, I'm so bored." Lu Xiaofeng sighed, and suddenly seemed to think of something, "Have you ever seen a thief in the capital with your true face?" ”
His tone was rare and serious, and Xie Xing frowned when he heard this, "No." ”
"Strange ......" Lu Xiaofeng showed an extremely puzzled expression, "Then why is there a rumor recently that you are going to enter the palace to steal things?" ”
Xie Xing's eyes widened in disbelief, "When did it come out?" ”
"Two days ago." Lu Xiaofeng said.
Two days ago, he just finished his lecture to the princess and came out of the palace? Dealing with that little ancestor every day is enough for him to be tired, where does he have the time to do anything in the name of Sikong Picking Stars.
"Where did it start?"
Lu Xiaofeng looked at his confused reaction, and was even more puzzled, "I checked, it came from a palace guard." ”
Xie Xing was almost scared to death, "How is it possible?!" ”
"I wonder if you're careless enough to be found out in the palace, right? That's why I asked if you have ever been seen by other peers. ”
"Not once." He was sure.
"That's weird." Lu Xiaofeng also frowned, "I'll check again, if your identity is leaked, it's still quite troublesome." ”
Xie Xing also knew that this was very troublesome, but Lu Xiaofeng was a friend he could completely trust after all, so after the other party said this, he nodded without hesitation, "Then please." ”
"But be careful." Lu Xiaofeng instructed.
"Aren't I doing nothing now?" He smiled.
In the end, the rumor of "Sikong picking stars to enter the palace to steal things" spread all over the city within half a month, and many people thought that he was whimsical, and many people who had seen his light skills said that he would definitely be able to do it as long as he wanted to.
As Sikong Xing himself, Xie Xing was really devastated when he heard that all the guards in the palace had discussed this matter.
Lu Xiaofeng checked there for a few days, but the clues barely increased, and the two of them were puzzled.
In the end, it was Chu Liuxiang who woke up the dreamer with a word.
"Since this matter is indeed groundless, the problem is definitely not in the wind, but in the hole."
Lu Xiaofeng's eyes lit up instantly, "What does the senior mean, is it that the people in the palace want him to go?" ”
Xie Xing hadn't thought about it in this direction, but as soon as the two of them said it at this moment, he suddenly remembered that the princess had started to ask him some things about the rivers and lakes recently.
He didn't want to reveal his identity, so he naturally said less if he could, but it might be a bit deliberate to ask three questions, so what he told the princess was mostly the rumors he heard in the teahouse, some true and some false, and the last sentence was actually not very clear.
The princess knew that he was sent by the emperor to give a lecture, so she didn't particularly embarrass him, and many times she didn't ask him to the end.
But in the past few days, the princess has asked several times about the stars.
Originally, he thought that the princess was also interested because she heard the rumor, but after being reminded by Chu Liuxiang's words, he suddenly reacted.
Maybe this matter was made by the princess, she was so interested in the affairs of the rivers and lakes, she had heard about the deeds of the king who stole the king, and it was not impossible to use this rumor to invite him into the palace to see him.
…… No, that's how it should be.
Lu Xiaofeng also thought of it and asked him, "What are you going to do?" ”
He smiled, "They see the stars every day, and if they don't recognize me, can they blame me?" ”
The rumors intensified, and even the night pearl that was going to be stolen by the bedside of the sixth princess spread throughout the capital.
Even Ye Yan pulled his sleeve curiously and asked him, "Are you really going to steal the night pearl of the sixth princess?" ”
Xie Xing couldn't cry or laugh, "What do I want that thing for?" ”
The little girl rubbed his palm and grimaced at him again, "I heard it's beautiful!" ”
"I don't want her if it's good-looking." Xie Xing patted her head, "I'll find you a better one." ”
"Really?"
"Really, but I haven't had time lately." Xie Xing spread his hands, "I have to enter the palace every day, and I don't even have a rest." ”
"You're really good, and you're pitiful with a little girl." Lu Xiaofeng sneered, "So you made up your mind not to show up?" ”
"It's too troublesome, with the personality of the sixth princess, when you meet me, you probably want to see my master." Xie Xing frowned, "And the emperor seems to already know about this, when I went there today, I heard the emperor tell her to stop messing around." ”
Every time I heard him call Chu Liuxiang Lu Xiaofeng by Master Hui, he wanted to laugh, he felt that Xie Xing was deliberately unhappy for Chu Liuxiang, after Xie Ling and Chu Liuxiang got married, he didn't call his brother-in-law once, and then once he learned from Zhang Jiejie that Chu Liuxiang's original home was a boat, and there were three girls on the boat that he had grown up with, he started calling Master Chu Liuxiang again.
Every sound seemed to remind him that there was a difference in seniority!
It's also a shame that Chu Liuxiang never cared, and joked that I was just a marshal of thieves, but I taught a king of stealing kings.
"Actually, if she really insists, you can find a time to take the Night Pearl away, send it directly to another palace room, and leave a note." Lu Xiaofeng gave him an idea, "Anyway, with your ability, it's not difficult not to be discovered by them." ”
"No, I have a better way." Xie Xing waved his hand and rejected the offer.
A better approach is not to deceive Lu Xiaofeng's rhetoric.
After a period of getting along, he already knew that the princess was actually a good-looking person, regardless of men and women, even the maids in her palace were all national colors and fragrances, and her curiosity about picking stars was only aroused by hearing a guard mention the legend that no one had ever seen the true face of the king of thieves.
She doesn't understand the sinister nature of the rivers and lakes, and she wants to make such a fuss when she wants to see others.
Fortunately, it was him who was the "Sky Picker", if he was really a heinous thief, and he had the ability to enter and leave the palace as if he were in a no-man's land, she would have been taught a lesson by being so calculated.
So it's not difficult for her to dispel her interest in picking stars, just pretend to unintentionally mention a shocking-looking Jianghu person to her to divert her interest.
Even the candidates are ready-made -
Simon Blowing Snow, who had just received another battle post.
The reason why it was Ximen Blowing Snow instead of Lu Xiaofeng was because he knew that if the princess made a similar game to invite Lu Xiaofeng, Lu Xiaofeng would definitely go, but Ximen Blowing Snow knew that it would not be with his toes.
And with a person like Simon Blowing Snow, the princess can't find any way to invite him.
Lu Xiaofeng, who learned that he had solved this matter in this way, sprayed a sip of wine on the wall, "You're not afraid that he will pick up a sword and cut you?" ”
Xie Xing spread his hands, "He has nothing to lose, just one more person who worships him." ”
The princess did have a great interest in Ximen Blowing Snow, and if it weren't for the emperor's strict ban on her leaving the palace, she probably wouldn't be able to stop watching the duel of Ximen Blowing Snow.
Xie Xing didn't go because he thought it was boring to see it the last time, which made the princess very curious, "Doesn't Mr. also admire Simon Blowing Snow?" Didn't even go to see it? ”
Hearing the word admiration, the corners of his mouth twitched first.
But the words were said by him, how could he slap himself in the face after he finished speaking?
"It is the duty of a minister to give a lecture to the princess." He replied respectfully.
"Alas, in fact, I know that it is really wronged to give me a lecture with Mr. Gentleman's knowledge, not to mention that I don't really want to hear it." The princess was very sad, "It's just that without you, sir, I have to listen to the people next to me, but those crooked melons and cracked dates, I can't be happy when I see them, and it's impossible to listen to them." ”
Xie Xing: "......"
"Then again, next time if there's any dueling worth watching, Mr. will go if he wants!" The princess held her cheeks and smiled at him, "Just tell me a good story when you come back!" ”
One question, how can he say that he actually doesn't want to see Simon blowing snow and fighting?
And in this way, in the future, he will continue to describe to her how earth-shattering Simon's sword of blowing snow is, and how graceful the people are.
…… When I think about it, I don't think this lesson can be taught.
Fortunately, after this fight, Ximen Fuxue went back to Taiyuan.
The princess was a forgetful person, and she couldn't remember it in less than two months, but I don't know where she heard that his family had opened the most famous pastry shop in the capital, Hefangzhai, and she wanted to see his sister.
Xie Xing wanted to refuse, but before he could speak, the emperor happened to walk in, "See Xie Qing's sister?" That's fine. ”
“…… Your Majesty? ”
Seeing that he looked terrified, although he didn't know how much of it was pretended, the emperor waved his hand, "I have long wanted to meet him." ”
When Chu Liuxiang asked him for help for this girl, he was very curious about what kind of girl could make Chu Liuxiang do this for her.
Xie Xing didn't know this, and he was even more surprised when he heard the emperor say this, "Your Majesty knows about Sister Chen?" ”
The Emperor nodded undeniably and said in a playful tone, "I've also eaten your pastries." ”
Xie On acting, I've been afraid of anyone, Xing immediately made a flattered look, "I see." ”
With the eyesight that the emperor has cultivated in the deep palace for so many years, how could he not see that he is pretending, but he doesn't care, and he guesses that Chu Liuxiang has not mentioned a word to this brother-in-law for so many years.
No wonder the relationship is not harmonious, tsk.
After going back, Xie Xing told Xie Ling that the princess wanted to see her, and Xie Ling was also stunned, "Why does Her Royal Highness the princess want to see me?" ”
"She likes Hefangzhai's dim sum, and when she learned that the shopkeeper is my sister, she wanted to meet her." Xie Xing sighed, "I originally wanted to find a reason to refuse, but I didn't expect to be heard by Your Majesty, and Your Majesty asked her to summon you into the palace." ”
After Xie Ling heard this, she suddenly had a feeling that there was something wrong with this martial arts set, but the emperor spoke, of course she had no room to refuse, and followed Xie Xing into the palace the next day.
The sixth princess was born petite, eleven years old, and looked about the same height as Ye Yan, who was more than seven years old, and she was quite a bit of heavenly majesty when she didn't speak, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she had a soft milk voice, which was too cute.
"Mr. has been teaching me for so long, I only found out yesterday that Hefangzhai was opened by his family." The sixth princess smiled and said, "Come on, give Miss Xie a seat." ”
Xie Ling sat down after thanking her, and she didn't dare to be as casual as at home, she answered whatever the sixth princess asked, and it was not difficult to talk.
Until the sixth princess stopped mentioning pastry-related topics, and asked her instead: "I heard from the imperial brother that Miss Xie is married to Chu Liuxiang?" ”
Xie Ling was stunned for a moment, but quickly recovered and responded, "Yes." ”
"I also saw Chu Liuxiang once when I was young." The sixth princess seemed to be recalling seriously, "It was about the time when the imperial brother was still living in the East Palace, but unfortunately I later learned that this was Chu Liuxiang, who was called a thief by the people of the rivers and lakes." ”
Xie Ling didn't know how to answer this question, but fortunately Xie Xing opened his mouth.
He was wondering.
"How could Chu Liuxiang appear in the East Palace?"
The sixth princess's eyes widened, "Sir doesn't know?" ”
Xie Ling had already reacted to what was going on, but it was not good to speak rashly, and only listened to the sixth princess pause for a moment before he spoke again: "I asked the imperial brother later, and the imperial brother said that Chu Liuxiang asked him to borrow a group of secret guards to protect his sweetheart, but I only found out yesterday that the sweetheart who stole the handsome was the sister of the gentleman." ”
Dark Guard Xie Xing knew, but for so many years, he had always thought that it was a cold-blooded person.
Lu Xiaofeng also thought so, and when he drank with one of the secret guards who talked the most last time, he sighed, "Senior Leng is really persistent, my sister has even given birth to a daughter now." ”
Now that I think about it, the dark guard's expression at that time was indeed very subtle.
So that group of people is actually Chu Liuxiang's handiwork?!
Doesn't this mean that many of his deceptive behaviors of destroying teachers and ancestors are actually ......
No, Chu Liuxiang is not wronged! He's so stinging and attracting butterflies!
Xie Xing thought hatefully.
…… At most, go back and buy him a jar of good wine today. 166 Reading Network
