Chapter 18 Gas
Tao Ge was dragged back to the study by Sima Daozi, and the moment Sima Daozi turned around and closed the door, she clearly saw that when Liu looked at her, her eyes were full of hatred, as terrible as ghosts and demons, and terrifying as a ghostly spirit.
Sima Daozi turned around and was about to walk towards the bookcase, but Tao Ge also turned to look at him and asked, "What's wrong with her?" β
"It's okay," Sima Daozi's words were a little cold, Tao Ge noticed it, and naturally didn't know why, so he asked a little tentatively: "Your face is not very good, but blame me for being rude in front of His Majesty?" β
"No," Sima Daozi turned to look at her and said, "Susu, you are too careful." β
Hearing him call her like this, Tao Ge was quite uncomfortable, but she didn't say anything, she sighed, and said: "I heard that Your Majesty is a tyrant, and he has always been cruel and tyrannical, and when I see him today, he doesn't seem to be so bad, but quite gentle." β
Sima Daozi frowned slightly when he heard this, Tao Ge didn't notice it at all, and then said: "Just like I heard from the storyteller, say ......"
Before Tao Ge could say anything, Sima Daozi interrupted and said, "Su Su, some people are not as simple as you see, you don't have to be deceived by them, just like Huan Yi." β
Tao Ge originally wanted to tell him that she had heard from the storyteller that he was a ruthless and murderous person, but now that she got along with him personally, she felt that he was also a gentle gentleman.
I didn't think that before he finished speaking, he was interrupted, and this was forgotten, but he told Huan Yi again.
slandered Huan Yi three times and twice, Tao Ge was naturally angry, and said slightly angrily: "What kind of hatred do you have with Huan Yi, if you want to say this about him, just say it once, but just say it back!" β
"Do you know ...... him" This time Sima Daozi wanted to explain, but Tao Ge was also anxious to interrupt him, and said calmly: "Don't say it, I don't want to know." β
She actually said this, she clearly knew what Sima Daozi was going to say, and she must have known how Sima Daozi found her traces.
Yes, there are some things, even if others don't say it, she knows it in her heart, but she values friendship too much and cherishes Huan Yi too much, so she has been pretending not to know.
Sima Daozi heard the meaning of her words, he was slightly stunned, Tao Ge raised his eyes to look at him, her expression was very serious, she said lightly: "I'm just a guest in your house, there are some things, you don't need to ask me to know." β
Tao Ge paused, and then said, "By the way, I'd better go back to Nanyuan to live." After all, there is a difference between men and women, and there is a distinction between host and guest, and if I live here, even if I am not in the same room with you, I am afraid that it will inevitably attract gossip. β
The words fell, and there was silence in the study, and the two of them looked at each other silently, at this time Ru Qianqiu knocked on the door outside and said, "Lord Wang, Tao Sheng is here." β
Sima Daozi came back to his senses, glanced at the door, and said, "Call him in." β
Tao Ge originally didn't know that Tao Sheng in Ru Qianqiu's mouth was Tao Yuanming, but there were guests here, she should avoid it, just wait for Sima Daozi to say, she turned around and walked towards the door, and when she opened the door, she saw Tao Yuanming standing outside the door in a daze, looking at her in a daze.
"Tao Ge girl......" Tao Yuanming saw Tao Ge, and his heart was full of joy in an instant, and he also had a smile on his face.
Seeing Tao Yuanming at that time, Tao Ge was also stunned, but she was unhappy in her heart, and she really didn't want to speak, so she just glanced at him lightly, and then crossed him and went straight out of the door.
When Sima Daozi saw Tao Ge like that, he thought that she was angry and left, but now he was both sorry and slightly tasted.
It turns out that she cares so much about Huan Yi......
Tao Yuanming didn't come back to his senses until he saw Tao Ge leave, but he still looked dumbfounded, turned around and walked to Sima Daozi, bowed and saluted, and called: "Lord Wang." β
"You're here to propose marriage again?"
Sima Daozi knew his thoughts about Tao Ge, and now every time he saw him, he was not as kind and kind as before, and even his tone of voice was a little lighter.
"No, Lord Wang, you misunderstood." Tao Yuanming's words were slightly timid.
It's strange to say, he was born in a family of scholars, and he has been free and uninhibited since he was a child, but whenever he mentions Taoge, he is a little restrained.
Sima Daozi was not in a hurry to answer, but walked unhurriedly to sit down in front of the bookcase, and then asked, "Then what is the reason for coming back this time?" β
"I'm here for the Pengze County Order."
Sima Daozi nodded without a trace and said, "Say it." β
Tao Yuanming talked with Sima Daozi for a long time in the study, and when he left the study, it was almost lunchtime, and he left the Lisi Courtyard and met Xiao Shi head-on.
It stands to reason that Xiao is Sima Daozi's concubine, just an aunt in the house, Tao Yuan saw her, there was no need to salute, but he had a family with the Xiao family since he was a child, in his impression, the one who had a baby kiss with him was the second daughter of the seventh branch of the Xiao family, named Xiao Su, and this Aunt Xiao of King Langya was the eldest daughter of the seventh branch of the Xiao family, so no matter whether he married Xiao Su now, and whether Xiao Su is dead or alive now, he should call Xiao "Sister".
In the Langya Palace, Tao Yuanming and Xiao Shi met more than once, and Xiao Shi also recognized him.
Seeing Xiao coming from afar, Tao Yuanming stopped and bowed and saluted, "Sister Xiao." β
Xiao Shi didn't seem to like him very much, walked up to him, looked at him with lowered eyes, there was always some contempt and disdain in her eyes, she didn't care about him, but this Tao Yuanming was Sima Daozi's most proud protΓ©gΓ©, and he couldn't be offended at will.
"Tao Sheng," Xiao Shi smiled and said politely, "I said that Su Su died four years ago, and your marriage to her will naturally fall through, and every time you see me, you don't have to call me sister." β
Tao Yuanming was quite stubborn, twisting his eyebrows and said: "I also said that the third miss and I are married, this is a family affair set by our two ancestors, the will of the ancestors, must not be disobedient, even if the third miss has passed away, then she is also a member of my Tao family, her name was engraved in the ancestral hall of the Tao family four years ago." You are the sister of your deceased wife, so I should call you sister. β
Xiao Shi smiled helplessly, but her smile was stiff, she only said: "It's up to you," and then turned around and left, walking towards Xiyuan, and when she was far away, she scolded: "It's really self-defeating!" β
The maid behind him followed closely and said, "Aunt Xiao, look at this Tao Sheng, the family is in the middle of the road, and what he just said clearly wants you to remember his kindness." β
Xiao sneered and said: "There are countless people in this world who want to marry my Lanling Xiao family, but if you want to get close to my Xiao family, how can it be so easy, this Tao Yuanming is just a small sacrificial wine, just with his humble official position, he still wants to marry my sister, it's a joke!" Even if Su Su is still alive now, the main mother will never be able to do this family business! β
"That's it," the maid sneered again: "If you want to be a relative with Aunt Xiao, you have to eat 3,000 households!" β
This master and servant are really of the same heart!
When I returned to Xiyuan, I saw Liu holding scissors to cut flowers in the courtyard.
When Xiao Shi heard about today's incident, he naturally wanted to fall into the well, so he approached and said, "Yo, what's wrong with my sister, look at this flower hasn't bloomed yet, I'm afraid I'm going to make my sister ruined." β
Liu glanced at her, but did not speak, Xiao saw the situation, and sneered: "I heard that my sister was reprimanded by the prince just now, and my sister didn't believe it at first, but now that I see my sister like this, it seems to be true." β
"Sister, this news is really well-informed," Liu turned sideways and gave the scissors to Zhou Yuan, and then said: "How many dogs do you have, you know everything about our house." β
"Look at what my sister said, my sister just wants to care about my sister, what's the matter, when I come to my sister, it's all a bad thing."
Liu snorted coldly, but didn't answer, Xiao Shi said again: "I heard that the prince reprimanded my sister for that Tao Ge, I listen, I'm afraid it's not, that Tao Ge is just a little girl, where did she get such a big ability." β
"Why does my sister also want to see the methods of that little slut?" Liu pouted.
Xiao Shi also laughed, "When my sister says this, I really want to see what kind of flattering methods she has, which can fascinate the prince, and even my sister has been wronged because of her." β
