Chapter 7: Cold Relations
"Huh? Well! Tang Ying blushed, and his eyes looked away in a panic. Kitsune tilted her head and glared at them, as if to supervise them not to behave out of the ordinary.
Seeing that she was speechless, Di Renjie asked, "I have a lot of questions for you, and you have to answer me openly and honestly this time." ”
Tang Ying nodded seriously.
"Who the hell are you?"
This first question is very sharp. Tang Ying really couldn't tell him the truth about his crossing, so he said: "It's true that I am a woman of Lord Tang Wenjing. By chance, Wu Mei valued me, and my parents sent me to the palace to be her 'cousin' and maid in order to soar. ”
"Oh......" Di Renjie's family has been an official for three dynasties, and he also knows a little about things in the palace. I don't know if this answer can convince him, in short, he didn't dwell on it anymore, and asked: "How did you and Li Taishi meet?" ”
That's the way to tell the truth. Since Di Renjie had seen many things about gods and monsters with his own eyes, there was no need to hide Bai Zeshen's affairs.
Di Renjie's eyes widened when he heard this, "It turns out that there is really a Bai Zeshen!" ”
Tang Ying said proudly: "If I didn't see it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe it." ”
Di Renjie summarized and unified the clues and sorted them out: "You said this because of the relationship between Lord Tang and followed Li Taishi to cultivate. And Empress Wu summoned you to the palace because she also valued your demon subjugation? ”
In fact, not only is it as simple as subduing demons, but I am afraid that she also has the ability to predict "all kinds of tests". But this matter is as beyond the comprehension of contemporary people as it is time travel, even Di Renjie guessed correctly.
Di Renjie rubbed his square chin and said, "I see." After so many years of getting along, it is not difficult to understand that you rely on Taishi Gong. ”
Tang Ying sighed and said, "Why should you all rely on it? It's obviously feelings, and it took him many years to decide. ”
Di Renjie couldn't help but reach out and knock her on the head, "Ah Ying, you are really strange. In my opinion, Tai Shi Gong's concerns are too normal. So......" he pursed his lips and said with some embarrassment, "He met me back then, implying that I had taken great pains to ask you for a kiss. ”
He looked back at the door, Li Chunfeng hadn't come over yet, I was afraid that he had deliberately set aside time for them. He began to think seriously, from a male point of view, Li Chunfeng is undoubtedly a good man as well. In addition to his age, it is understandable that Tang Ying fell in love with him.
Once relieved in his heart, he really cared about the relationship between the two. He recalled: "Didn't you fake your death and reject my marriage proposal? Supposedly he should understand your heart, right? More than four years have passed, why do you get along at all ......" He wanted to say that there was a lack of tacit understanding, but he was afraid of hitting Tang Ying, so he thought about it for a long time and said: "It's a little cold." ”
Tang Ying shrank into the hot water with a sad face, and finally told him cautiously: "In the year after I faked my death, that is, at the end of the sixth year of Yonghui, the two of us made an appointment to leave Chang'an. ”
Di Renjie was very surprised when he heard this, he knew that Li Chunfeng was one of the top historians in the dynasty and was very respected by the imperial court; And Tang Ying is a warlock that Wu Mei relies on, and his analysis of the two is definitely unsuccessful. As everyone knows, the biggest obstacle is not the imperial court or Wu Mei, but Yuan Tiangang.
Tang Ying struggled for a long time and still didn't reveal Yuan Tiangang's name, only saying that there was an extremely powerful character who wanted Li Chunfeng to stay in Chang'an, so their plan failed completely.
Yuan Tiangang was an insignificant petty official in the court, and Di Renjie knew very little about him, so he couldn't imagine that he was such a pivotal figure to the two. thought that Tang Ying was hinting at the emperor Li Zhi, so he didn't ask too much and let Tang Ying continue to tell about the changes between them.
Tang Ying sighed for a while and continued to reminisce.
The sixth year of Yonghui was followed by the first year of the general chapter. After Li Chunfeng returned home after the first lunar month, his attitude towards her suddenly returned to the previous era when the two of them were commensurate with master and apprentice. It can be described as more polite than intimate. This change made Tang Ying very chilled.
At first, Tang Ying thought he was making a show to show that powerful character, and he also pretended not to contact him often. Just in time for this year, the emperor first deposed the crown prince Zhong and made Wu Mei and his eldest son Li Hong the crown prince. Later, he posthumously presented his father Wushi Tong as Situ and gave him the title of Duke of Zhou. Then, Empress Wu participated in many important activities such as sacrifices, showing her mother's demeanor in the world. And at the end of the year, there was another prince for the emperor - Xian.
When the big and small things were over, Tang Ying found that Li Chunfeng had not taken the initiative to find her once. She finally couldn't wait any longer, and sneaked out of the palace to find him. saw that he was just devoted to his work, and there was nothing abnormal. That year, he worked hard to complete the ten books of his grandson's arithmetic.
She asked him what was wrong, but he never answered. Speaking of this, Tang Ying looked at the fox Ji in frustration, and it also nodded its little head, indicating that what it said was true.
Tang Ying said: "I even doubt that he has feelings for Fox Ji......" Fox Ji listened to the little paw slipping and almost fell into the water, and quickly shook her head like a wave drum.
Tang Ying looked at Di Renjie again, "Detective Di Renjie, can you tell me." What went wrong between us? ”
Di Renjie recalled the influence he saw in the restaurant, as well as Li Chunfeng's various performances, he was sure that Li Chunfeng had a deep affection for Tang Ying, but it was also hidden without revealing traces. Whether it's love or not, it's hard for him to say.
But he didn't rush to analyze Tang Ying, but asked Tang Ying, "Since he can't allow him to go out of Chang'an, why would you appear in Luoyang together?" ”
Tang Ying looked around and whispered, "Because the emperor decided to come to Luoyang for the Spring Festival." At this time, there were frequent signs in the eastern capital, and the Empress Wu specially ordered me to check it. It happened that the important person had something to leave Chang'an, so Chunfeng could go with him. ”
She called him Chunfeng. Di Renjie blocked his fist in front of his mouth, and his long black eyelashes hung down on his shining eyes, trying his best to hide his smile. Tang Ying blinked innocently with big eyes, not knowing what ridiculous things he had said.
He waved his hand and said, "I think you're making a bit of a fuss." As far as I can see, he is also very affectionate towards you. ”
"Really, really?" Tang was greatly encouraged. almost jumped out of the water, "Is it because I'm fascinated by the person in question, so I can't feel it?" ”
Di Renjie was about to say something, when he suddenly heard a cough from behind. Li Chunfeng was standing in the pool on his side, still holding two dry clothes in his hands, "If you don't dislike it, you can change into my clothes first." ”
When Di Renjie saw him turn around to leave, he suddenly shouted, "Uncle Li! ”
Li Chunfeng turned around, "What's the matter?" Di Renjie looked at his young and handsome face, and he was so embarrassed that his ears were red, and he stammered: "Nephew, nephew, I want to talk to you." ”
He said and winked at Tang Ying, as if to say, "I'll help you find out why." Tang Ying understood and sent to bow to him.
So he hurriedly said to Li Chunfeng: "Ah yes! Di Renjie has admired you for a long time, and he has saved a lot of questions to ask you! It just so happened that I was also soaking hot, so I went to change my clothes first. You guys talk! ”
She said and walked towards the pool in a daze. It's about to be spring. Li Chunfeng exclaimed, hurriedly wrapped the clothes in his hand for her, and said angrily: "It's really becoming more and more unladylike, there are still men here!" ”
Tang Ying was anxious to find out the result, so he hurriedly stuck out his tongue naughtily, picked up the fox Ji who still wanted to stay and didn't leave, and walked towards the outside of the bath: "I'll go find something to eat first, and you can talk slowly." ”
