Shoulong (2) [Three Watches]
(Chapter 42 Debt Repayment Plus Sixth Update, Completed Today)
Lian Yin sat down opposite Rui Shen, looked at him with pleasant eyebrows, and couldn't help but ask him funny, "What are you looking at?" ”
Rui Shen glanced around a few more times before looking at Lian Yin, and said in a milky voice, "I've always heard others say how eerie and terrifying the cold palace is, but now it seems that it is no different from other places." ”
As soon as he had finished speaking, he heard a maniacal laugh out of thin air, and it was so high-pitched and thin that it was very strange, very much like the ghost story that the nurse told in the middle of the night to scare him. Rui Shen was suddenly frightened, and the porcelain cup in his hand fell on the table in fright, and the water spread along the table.
"Be careful." Lian Yin hurriedly got up and straightened the porcelain cup, and wiped the water stains with a handkerchief to prevent the water from dripping onto him.
Rui Shen nervously looked at the open window, and a woman with a cloak rushed out of nowhere, screaming and laughing in the courtyard in the rain, and she couldn't see the original style of Luo's skirt crumpled like dried vegetables, but this was not the point, the crazy woman's laughter was really terrifying.
Lian Yin put the wet handkerchief aside, watched the little man look at the scene outside the window in horror, reached out and rubbed the top of his hair, and called his attention back, "Don't be afraid." ”
Rui Shen turned his head back to look at Lian Yin, and saw that she looked calm and didn't look scared at all, and suddenly felt that he was very embarrassed to be scared, and he felt curious, "Why aren't you afraid?" ”
Lian Yin smiled, "Why be afraid? ”
"That's madness!" Crazy people can hurt people and eat people. The nurse said.
Lian Yin turned his head to look out the window at the man who was still crazy in the rain, and said lightly, "That's just a very poor madman." ”
Cautious looked at her inexplicably, waiting for her to answer with him.
Lian Yin laughed and didn't tell him.
Rui Shen waited for a while, and saw that she didn't mean to say anything, and she was curious, but she didn't want to ask, so she pursed her lips and didn't say a word.
However, after Lian Yin poured him hot tea again, he asked him, "Are you five years old now?" ”
Rui Shen was startled by Lianyin again, "How do you know?" "She knows everything.
"You're the eleventh prince, I know your affairs shouldn't be?" Lian Yin asked him rhetorically.
She seemed to mean that because he was the prince, she should remember his affairs. But should it? Prudence looked at her silently. Other people don't remember it at all, and they don't care about it at all. Because he has no mother and concubine, and he is not loved by his father.
In the huge palace, there are so many princes, there is really no more than him, and no less than him.
But before he could think about it more, Lian Yin's question came again, "Have you gone to school?" ”
He shook his head, then nodded.
Lian Yin couldn't understand it, "Is this a study or not a study?" Rui Shen glanced at her with a slight weakness, but was caught by Lian Yin, "What's wrong?" ”
Rui Shen looked away and stopped looking at the legato, and his eyes flickered to the female madwoman who was going crazy in the rain outside the window. Maybe it's because Lian Yin just said that he was a poor madman, so he was so cautious that he was no longer afraid.
He didn't say anything, didn't even ask, just waited quietly.
After a short silence, Rui Shen couldn't hold back. The patience of children is not as good as that of adults, and Rui Shen moved his mouth and explained honestly, "A few years ago, the queen mother cared about it once, and also asked me to follow the royal brother and them to the school for a few lessons. But then I didn't go after the Chinese New Year, and I haven't been there until now. ”
The legato made a quiet "oh" sound, indicating that he understood.
Of course, the young Rui Shen couldn't understand why the queen mother let him go to school with him before, but then didn't let him go with him. In the final analysis, he was only asked to go to the emperor before, and then he was not allowed to go again, which was naturally deliberate.
Rui Shen's mother is Concubine Li, when this woman first entered the palace, she was proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and gave birth to a good appearance of interpretation flowers, which won the emperor's favor. When she was favored by the emperor, Concubine Li was a little fluttering, and she had faced the queen many times openly and secretly. For the sake of her favor, the queen has endured this breath. But later, Concubine Li became wise and could no longer serve the emperor, and the queen took the opportunity to persuade the emperor to be wet with rain and dew, and this favor was gradually divided by the newcomer.
By the time Rui Shen was born, the emperor's favor for Concubine Li had already faded by five or six points. In addition, the queen mother and other concubines who had suffered the loss of Concubine Li began to attack Concubine Li, and Concubine Li lacked the emperor's big backing, and she wanted to protect her wisdom and thoughtfulness, so she naturally had no time to take care of it, and was finally defeated by several trumped-up charges.
If it's just a pure fight, it doesn't matter, as long as you prescribe the right medicine, maybe you can make a comeback. But Concubine Li's temperament is too stubborn, and when she enters the palace, she asks for the sacred heart, so she naturally suffers a lot less than ordinary concubines. Even Jean Ruishen was disgusted by the emperor.
Concubine Li is a flower of interpretation, and she is good at chess, piano, calligraphy and painting. The queen naturally had scruples about letting Rui Shen go to school, would he be smarter than her own son?
If it weren't for the fact that the emperor was idle and bored and suddenly remembered Rui Shen, saying that he was also at the age of going to school, the queen probably wouldn't have thought of letting him go to school at all, or that the queen would do her best to delay Rui Shen's study and let him go to school many later than the other princes.
The queen did so considerately, but she specially chose to let Rui Shen go to school a year ago, the purpose of which was to explore the emperor's mind, if the emperor had always been interested in Rui Shen, then she had to think of another way. But the emperor didn't have much affection for Rui Shen in the end, and that mention was just a whim, so he naturally didn't care about it after that. When the queen saw the emperor like this, she also knew that Rui Shen was a person who could continue to be lazy, so she deliberately let him stop studying.
There are so many princes in the palace, how many people have to pay to support them if they want to be outstanding, but it is not easy to make a prince obscure and not have a sacred heart?
Lian Yin asked Rui Shen something else, and it wasn't until the rain stopped outside that she signaled that Rui Shen should go back.
Rui Shen also knew that he had disappeared for a long time, although the nurse didn't care about herself, but if she left for too long, the nurse would be angry. The nurse was angry, and he couldn't eat dinner.
Lian Yin sent him out, the crazy woman in the courtyard was still there, when she saw Rui Shen, her eyes lit up, and she muttered that she wanted to get closer, but when the man saw Lian Yin, he immediately stopped approaching honestly, but retreated several steps.
Rui Shen was originally a little afraid that the crazy woman would pounce on him, and he was even ready to hide behind Lian Yin, but when he found out that the other party was afraid of Lian Yin, he was suddenly not afraid, and even looked at Lian Yin with admiration, "She's afraid of you." ”
Lian Yin smiled noncommittally, took his little hand and continued to walk out. (To be continued.) )
