Chapter 8: Love
When Sima Daozi returned to the palace, it was late, and Tao Yuanming came here to propose marriage to Sima Daozi, so he naturally waited here all day.
It's just that Tao Ge caused him to fall into the water, and his green shirt was soaked, and in the evening, although his clothes were dry, he inevitably had a little fishy smell in the pool.
Tao Yuanming was waiting outside the courtyard, Sima Daozi was thirsty for talent, heard that Tao Yuanming was visiting, so he hurried over, but he saw Tao Yuanming's green shirt from a distance with some dirt, he had always been a little clean, but now when he saw Tao Yuanming, he instinctively avoided it.
And Tao Yuan saw Sima Daozi's eyes, lowered his head and looked at the dirt on his body, and then smiled, not knowing why he was advancing or retreating.
Although Sima Daozi was jealous of his dirty, he never rejected him, stretched out his hand and pointed to the stone bench behind him, gestured to invite him to sit down, and said politely: "Sit down." ”
Tao Yuanming sat down in response, did not forget to thank him, and said, "Thank you, Lord Wang." ”
Sima Daozi looked at him from top to bottom, and finally couldn't help but say a few words of concern, and asked, "What's the matter with your mud?" ”
Tao Yuanming laughed, scratched his ears timidly, and said, "I accidentally fell into the water in the morning." ”
Sima Daozi smiled and teased: "You don't look at the road? ”
Tao Yuanming then said: "Actually, it's the Taoge girl......"
This Tao Yuanming suddenly paused when he said this, in Sima Daozi's opinion, he seemed to have something unspeakable, and this matter involved Tao Ge, Sima Daozi was even more puzzled, his brows were slightly twisted, as if he didn't care, and seemed to be displeased.
Tao Yuanming wanted to speak and stopped, and Sima Daozi asked lightly: "What's wrong with Tao Ge?" But she pushed you into the water? ”
Hearing Sima Daozi ask about this, and seeing that his face was not very good, Tao Yuanming now regrets that he was speechless for a while, and actually talked about Tao Ge.
"The prince misunderstood," Tao Yuanming hurriedly defended Tao Ge and explained: "Tao Ge girl is weak and docile, how could she push her into the water and be careless under herself." ”
It's okay that Tao Yuanming didn't say it, but when he said it, everything was exposed, but Sima Daozi smiled indifferently and said, "Tao Ge is rude again." ”
"No, no, no!" Tao Yuanming hurriedly shook his head and said straightly: "No, it's actually a faux pas, and it has nothing to do with Miss Taoge." ”
This Tao Yuanming is really a tendon.
Sima Daozi no longer told him about this, and asked directly: "You have been waiting here in the morning, and it has been a whole day now, don't you have something urgent to tell this king?" ”
Tao Yuanming smiled timidly, and said after a long time: "Don't hide it from the prince, I fell in love with Miss Taoge at first sight, and I had a skin-to-skin relationship with her in the past, and I was not a light person, so I promised to marry her as a wife, so I came here today and proposed to the prince." ”
At first, when he heard Tao Yuanming say that he had a love for Tao Ge, Sima Daozi was already stunned, and his face was a little stiff, but now when he heard that Tao Yuanming came to propose marriage to him, his face was even colder.
But Tao Yuanming didn't seem to be aware of this at all, and still said to himself.
Tao Yuanming said that, but he didn't hear Sima Daozi's response, he just looked at him, but when he saw Sima Daozi's cold face, he said: "If the prince agrees, then he will come tomorrow to hire." ”
Sima Daozi was still silent, and it happened that Ru Qianqiu was serving tea, so he picked up the teacup, brought it to his lips and took a sip, and then said: "What if the king disagrees?" ”
Tao Yuanming was stunned, and said, "This ......"
"Lord Wang, I really have love for Miss Taoge, and there is no hypocrisy!" Tao Yuanming stood up abruptly as he spoke, and his tone seemed to be a little more serious, Sima Daozi stood up unhurriedly, glanced at him lightly, and said, "She's still young." ”
Sima Daozi turned around and entered the study, Tao Yuanming was in a hurry, so he also followed, but was stopped outside the study by Ru Qianqiu, Ru Qianqiu said: "Tao Sheng, what the prince means, you should be clear." ”
Tao Yuanming was anxious and said, "What does it mean, I don't know!" ”
Ru Qianqiu should have driven Tao Yuanming away, but Sima Daozi cherished his talents, and he also had a lot of respect for Tao Yuanming, so he had no choice but to laugh and say: "Tao Ge is young, and he is still a little ignorant about the affairs of men and women, and the prince should mean this." ”
When Tao Yuanming heard this, he calmed down a little and said, "Is that really what you mean?" ”
Ru Qianqiu nodded when he saw the situation, and said: "You believe in the little slave, the little slave has served the prince for eight years, and he knows the eyes of the prince well, not to mention a word." ”
"Since that's the case, then ......" Tao Yuanming didn't seem embarrassed, and said, "That party is being rude." ”
Ru Qianqiu sneered, Tao Yuanming bowed to the door of the study, said "farewell", and turned to leave.
Tao Yuanming walked a few steps and looked back, and said, "I often come to visit Miss Taoge in the next meeting, these days, I'm afraid I have to bother you to take care of her." ”
Ru Qianqiu was naturally reluctant in her heart, but she nodded on her face, answered twice, and said, "It's okay." ”
Not long after Tao Yuanming left, Sima Daozi also came out, standing in front of the door of the study and looking ahead, Ru Qianqiu saw him like this, bowed slightly and called softly: "Lord Wang." ”
Sima Daozi looked at him sideways and scolded slightly: "Why did you respond to him, and said that it was okay, could it be that Tao Ge also admitted that Tao Ge was his person?" ”
Ru Qianqiu was told this, so he naturally didn't dare to answer, Sima Daozi glanced at him again, and then walked out of the courtyard, looking in the direction of the south, it seemed that he was going to Nanyuan.
At that time, Nanyuan had not yet eaten, Tao Ge was sitting outside with Ziji, and the two of them were sitting in the corridor together, facing north, both in a daze.
Tao Ge can't let go of the day's events, and today the person has been following her since he left the courtyard, so sneaky, he really can't ignore it.
Since ancient times, the inner house has always had selfish means, and she knows this very well!
"Sister Ziji," Tao Ge called softly, Zi Ji answered, looking at her sideways, Tao Ge also looked at her, but she looked absent-minded, she thought about it left and right, or just, these things are always a little taboo, and it is better not to mention them to others until the last resort.
Ziji saw Tao Ge's beautiful eyebrows slightly condensed, looking worried, he must have something on his mind, so he asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Tao Ge was gloomy, shook his head, and then looked back and continued to look ahead, but Zi Ji suspected that she was worried about Tao Yuanming's affairs, so she asked with a slightly ridiculous smile: "Tao Ge, tell me honestly, are you tempted by your Tao Yuanming?" ”
Hearing this, Tao Ge was naturally stunned, and couldn't help laughing for a while, his sad face suddenly dissipated, and he sneered: "What is my sister talking nonsense, such a hypocritical person, how could I be tempted by him!" ”
Ziji pondered for a moment after hearing this, and then smiled evilly: "Look at you like this, you must have a sweetheart." ”
Tao Ge was stunned for a while, and then his face was full of joy, as if to hide the shyness in his eyes, Ziji was very good at observing words and feelings, and when he saw her expression, he also understood, and hurriedly asked, "Who is it?" ”
When Ziji said this, Tao Ge became more and more shy, covering her face and not daring to look at her, so Ziji pulled her hands down and said, "Which prince and grandson got into your eyes?" ”
Tao Ge glanced at her timidly and said angrily, "I won't tell you." ”
Ziji exclaimed: "Isn't it Huan Ziye? ”
Tao Ge frowned and said, "Sister is talking nonsense again, Huan Yi and I are just bosom friends, and we are friends with Guan Bao, so you can't think about it deeply." ”
"Really? If the two of you are nothing, then why does he often play "Phoenix Seeking Phoenix" to you, you are proficient in music and rhythm, and you must know what this "Phoenix Seeking Phoenix" means. ”
"Good sister, you really can't talk nonsense, if Huan Yi listens to it, he will be angry for a while."
Ziji stopped joking and said seriously: "But seriously, you and Huan Ziye, one is good at the piano and the other is good at the pipa, it is really a match made in heaven, it's a pity not to be together." ”
Tao Ge smiled and said in a low voice: "He has a marriage contract with Miss Nine of the six branches of the Gu family in Wu County, and he should go to the Gu family to propose marriage." ”
When Ziji heard this, her face suddenly deteriorated, and she hurriedly said: "Don't you want to divert the topic, I just asked you, and you haven't answered me yet." ”
"If I tell you, you are not allowed to tell anyone," Tao Ge was not very relieved.
Ziji said: "Why do you say that, can't you believe my sister?" ”
Tao Ge twisted and pinched, his face was flushed, and he looked like a girl's spring heart sprouting, Ziji couldn't wait and said: "Say it quickly, don't hang my appetite." ”
Hearing Ziji's urging, Tao Ge squirmed for a moment before saying, "The book is respectful to the prince." ”
Ziji was stunned for a moment, and exclaimed: "Wang Xianzhi?!" ”
Speaking of Wang Xianzhi, Tao Ge was slightly happy and said, "Yes, my sister has heard of this person?" ”
Ziji frowned slightly, "Climbing the dragon and attaching the phoenix, the negative man who abandoned his wife and children, who doesn't know that he is famous for his king!" ”
The so-called lover is out of Xi Shi in his eyes, Ziji slandered Wang Xianzhi so much, Tao Ge naturally didn't buy it, and retorted: "Why did my sister slander him so much, he and Xi Daomao were reconciled, and marrying the eldest princess of Yuyao was also a last resort, and the Sima family forced him to marry, how could he resist the decree and disrespect!" ”
Zi Ji didn't speak, Tao Ge was too radical, and said lightly: "My sister said that about him, my sister didn't feel very comfortable listening to him." ”
"Tao Ge," Zi Ji breathed a long sigh of relief and said: "You listen to my sister's words, Wang Xianzhi is not a person worthy of your life, if you follow him in the future, you will inevitably suffer, not to mention that the eldest princess of Yuyao is not a good person, their Sima family, which one is easy to provoke, you will know by looking at the prince." ”
Tao Ge glanced at her and said lightly, "It's time to eat." Then he stood up, and when he turned around, he saw Sima Daozi standing in the corridor, looking at her quietly.
Ziji also turned around, and suddenly saw Sima Daozi, naturally he couldn't help but be surprised, and said, "Lord Wang......"
She spoke ill of him to Taogo.
Sima Daozi didn't seem to hear it, and still looked at Tao Ge, but his heart was mixed.
She was actually attracted to the people of the Wang family, or his brother-in-law Wang Xianzhi......
It's Tao Yuanming again, it's Huan Ziye again, and now it's Wang Xianzhi again, this Miss Xiao family is really a blessing!
Seeing that his face was cold and seemed displeased, Tao Ge glanced around, and then looked at him, calmly but not kindly, and asked, "Why are you looking at me, isn't it that I have done something that makes you unhappy?" ”
After last night's incident, Tao Ge couldn't help but feel a little disgusted with him in his heart, and he was not very polite in his words.
In the end, it is hard-working.
Ziji hurriedly reminded her when she heard this, and called in a low voice: "Taoge! ”
Tao Ge ignored it, and Sima Daozi said lightly: "It's cold, add a bed and quilt at night." ”
After saying that, he turned around and left, and walked a long way before frowning and asking Ru Qianqiu, "Who is Huan Yi?" ”
Ru Qianqiu thought for a while and said: "Xuancheng County, Zhonglang General Huan Yi, born in the Huan clan of the State of China, the small character Ziye, so the Ziji girl called him Huan Ziye, this person is unruly in nature, proficient in music and rhythm, and the flute is known as 'Jiangzuo No. 1', so it is known as the 'flute saint', in the early years, he was a guest of Lord Xie An, and the prince has ever heard of "Jade Concubine Introduction"? He wrote the song. ”
Before the words fell, Sima Daozi stopped and scolded slightly: "It's just to tell you who he is, what do you say so much!" ”
Ru Qianqiu hurriedly shut up, he had never seen the prince like this, but now his expression was as if he had eaten it......
