Chapter 97: Here's the Why
"What are you doing at my house?"
Zhou Changxi sat on a chair, holding a fishing rod in his hand, looked intently at the swim bladder on the lake, and asked lightly. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"The spring is bright, the wind is beautiful, and I miss you very much, so I came to see you."
"Baizhu, send off!" Zhou Changxi said coldly.
A maidservant girl behind Zhou Changxi said respectfully: "Fifth Highness, please go this way." β
Zhou Tingyu put his hands behind his back, turned his head sideways and asked, "What if His Highness doesn't?" β
Bai Shu smiled on his face, but the meaning of his words was diametrically opposed to the smile on his face: "Fifth Highness, please don't embarrass the slaves. β
Zhou Tingyu "tsk" twice: "His Royal Highness likes to embarrass you, go, bring a rocking chair to His Royal Highness." β
"Master." Baizhu asked embarrassedly.
Zhou Changxi was silent, "Move a chair to him, love to sit or not." β
Baizhu took the order and left, Xu Yu brought someone back with a chair, Zhou Tingyu sat down unceremoniously, as if in his own palace, instructed Baizhu to pour tea for him, serve refreshments, and use Baizhu as his own palace maid.
Zhou Changxi waited until Zhou Tingyu finally stopped, and didn't bother to pay attention to him, and kept looking at the lake.
Zhou Tingyu drank a cup of tea and ate a few pieces of dim sum, seeing that Zhou Changxi didn't have the idea of making a sound, thinking of the purpose of his coming here, he coughed lightly, "Cousin, Ye Xu has something I want to ask you." β
"Tell me what happened so that you can come and consult me, and make me happy." The words that came out of Zhou Changxi's mouth made Zhou Tingyu's face darken.
Zhou Tingyu said angrily: "I really should let my father see you like this, if I let my father know that the sweet-mouthed and polite niece he likes is actually like this in private, I don't know what I will think." β
"Oh, thank you for worrying, didn't Uncle Huang already know that I would only do this to you?" Zhou Changxi is not afraid of Zhou Tingyu's threat.
Speaking of the festival between the two of them, it can be said that they have not stopped for three days and three nights, anyway, the entire royal family knows that the two of them are enemies when they meet, and Zhou Changxi is not afraid.
If it was usual, Zhou Tingyu would not hesitate to go back, but now he replied honestly: "Ahem, Hua'er may know my identity." β
Zhou Changxi touched her forehead, she was fine, she didn't have a fever, which meant that she was normal, since she was normal, then it was Zhou Tingyu who was abnormal.
Zhou Changxi wanted to roll her eyes: "Are you a demon or a ghost?" What's wrong with Hua Niang knowing your identity? β
Speaking of this, Zhou Changxi paused, her eyes narrowed slightly, "You won't be in love with Hua Niang, right?" β
Although her cousin is only eleven years old, she is in the royal family, and since she was born, she has no naΓ―ve rights, the intrigue of the harem, the power of the previous dynasty, not to mention the prince, even the princess will do her best to get the emperor's favor, whether it is pretending to be innocent or pretending to be pure, it is just a means to compete for favor.
When the prince is thirteen years old, the royal family will arrange for the palace maid to teach the prince personnel, but also to avoid the prince from being fascinated by the temptation, so at the age of eleven, he may still be naΓ―ve and ignorant among the sons and nephews of high-ranking officials and nobles, but in the royal family, he may already have a lot of power in secret.
Her guess wasn't too much.
Zhou Tingyu was speechless, but instead asked a question that was not related to cattle and horses: "Why do you like Hua Niang?" And let her call you by your name instead of the title? β
Zhou Changxi took it for granted: "Because she has a good look." "People are so beautiful, when I see them for the first time, I like them very much.
Zhou Tingyu spread his hands, "Not to mention that we were the same ancestor two hundred years ago, that is, a few decades ago, we were also the same imperial grandfather, with the same blood flowing in our bodies, why do you like Hua'er, why do I like to play with her." β
From Emperor Chengde, to Zhou Tingyu, to Zhou Changxi, these three people are all the temperament of judging people by their appearance at first sight, if Shu Hongxuan is here, he will label these three people: Appearance Association - Senior President.
People who look good will have natural conveniences.
Zhou Tingyu really didn't have any feelings for Shu Yanhua, but he followed his eldest brother out to see the champion on the street, and when he saw the men and women on the street seeing Shu Hongxuan's eyes and not blinking, he was not convinced, obviously he was more handsome than Shu Hongxuan, how could those people look at Shu Hongxuan stunned?
Especially Shu Yanhua's act of throwing flowers, it may be that the sun was just right at that time, or it may be that those eyes are too beautiful, in short, seeing her favor for Zhuang Yuanlang, he was even more unconvinced, and later asked people to check her identity on the spot.
Even if she knew that Shu Yanhua would do this because Zhuang Yuanlang was her brother, she had to let her know that Shu Hongxuan was not the most handsome person, and he would go to Shu's house for a banquet.
The narcissistic factor hidden deep in his body always pops up from time to time.
Zhou Changxi was still a little suspicious: "But you only found her a girl to play with, and you even came to Tai Academy for her, you can't fool me." β
Zhou Tingyu rolled his eyes: "I didn't want to lie to you. β
After that, Zhou Tingyu stood in front of Zhou Changxi, pinched his face, pointed to his nose again, and said, "Have you ever seen a girl who can compare with my appearance?" β
Zhou Changxi looked at the delicate and handsome face in front of him, with a clear face, and an innate nobility, he couldn't hold his conscience to refute him like before, even if he was a Shushe, he couldn't compare to him.
A man looks more beautiful than a girl, and there is no reason for him.
However, Zhou Changxi was silent and said, "I've seen it, Hua Niang is more beautiful than you!" β
Zhou Tingyu slapped his palms and said, "Yes, even I admit that Hua Niang's appearance is more beautiful than mine." Before, it was to make Hua'er admit that I was more handsome than Shusheren, but later I felt that Hua'er's temperament was not hypocritical or anxious, so I wanted to play with her.
You don't know that at this year's annual meeting, those ladies who looked at the third brother and the fourth brother looked at them like looking at a piece of braised pork, greedy and coveting, it was really terrifying.
If I want to choose the imperial concubine, I would rather choose one I like, than one that is just for the power behind me, at least Hua'er's appearance, I like it very much when I look at it. β
Zhou Changxi looked at Zhou Tingyu's expression as a matter of course, and did not find the slightest hint of admiration in his eyes, and finally believed that he was just a fun playmate for Shu Yanhua now, and there was no love between men and women, but after a long time, it was difficult to say.
Zhou Changxi returned to the topic: "What if Hua Niang knows your identity?" Just to see her reaction, if you flatter you, get close to you, and flatter you like other ladies, it means that it's not worth paying attention to her anymore, isn't it? β
And she will also use this to observe whether Shu Yanhua is worth being her friend.
Zhou Tingyu held his chin, pondered for a while, and snapped his fingers: "What you said is reasonable, then I'll go first." Cousin, until today, I didn't realize that you are still a little useful. β
Zhou Changxi replied coldly: "The boy who doesn't have any hair, the scholar likes the little girl!" (To be continued.) )
