Chapter 2 Deep Thoughts & My New Life
Since Shu Qiao left, although the Thirteenth Master still misses Shu Qiao very much, he knows that Shu Qiao's fate has been decided, and it is impossible to compete with the emperor for his fate. I can only lock myself up at home all day, recite poems and paint, and drink to get by.
Luo Xinghai persuaded the Thirteenth Master to go out for a walk, but the Thirteenth Master only said that he only wanted to paint and didn't want to go out. Luo Xinghai thought about it, and estimated that only the fourth master could persuade the thirteenth master, otherwise he would still suffocate his body after all.
The fourth master was discussing some things with Long Keduo, when he heard the arrival of Luo Xinghai, the personal attendant of the thirteenth master, the fourth master announced that he would come in, and as soon as Xinghai came in, he made a request: "Fourth master, you go and persuade the thirteenth master, he is always hiding in the room alone, except for wine, he has not eaten a few bites of food." ”
In fact, the fourth master knew that Xinghai was coming, so he estimated what happened to the thirteenth brother. The fourth master told Luo Xinghai: "I know, you go back first, I'll go to the thirteenth master at night." ”
"Thank you, Fourth Master, the slave will retire." After Luo Xinghai left, the fourth master continued to stay and continued to discuss state affairs with Long Keduo.
In the evening, the fourth master came to the thirteenth master's mansion, leaned out the window, and saw that the thirteenth master was not drinking, and the whole person still looked very sober, but he had been painting something, but despite this, the thirteenth master's eyes were still very weak.
The fourth master walked over, and the thirteenth master may have been too involved in the painting, and he didn't even notice the arrival of the fourth master. The fourth master stood not far from the inkstone and saw that Thirteen was still painting a portrait of Xinyan. The fourth master thought: Since the thirteenth brother is still the most nostalgic for Mo Xinyan, then I will let her forget Ai Shuqiao.
The fourth master opened his mouth and read: "Last year, in this door today, the peach blossoms on the human face were red, and the human face did not know where to go, and the peach blossoms were still smiling in the spring breeze. ”
The thirteenth master looked up at the fourth master and finished reading the poem, and said, "Fourth brother, when did you come?" ”
The fourth master just said lightly: "Soon, but it is enough to see what is on your mind." ”
The Thirteenth Master put down his pen, lowered his head and said, "Fourth brother, I'm not thinking about Shu Qiao. ”
The fourth master picked up the painting and said, "I know, you are thinking about Mo Xinyan." After looking at it for a while, he put down the painting in his hand and said, "Have you ever thought that in fact, you don't love Ai Shuqiao, just because she and Mo Xinyan look seven or eight points alike, so you transferred your love for Mo Xinyan to Ai Shuqiao." ”
The Thirteenth Master put his hands behind his back and said, "However, when I knew that she was going to marry the crown prince and knew that she was leaving, my heart was very sad. ”
The fourth master walked over, wanted to stand in front of the thirteenth master, let him look at his eyes, and then told him firmly: "Thirteenth brother, you just treat her as Mo Xinyan, you shouldn't let anyone replace Mo Xinyan, so just treat that Mongolian princess as a passerby." ”
The thirteenth brother looked at the fourth master's firm and cold eyes, and also thought about it, but he didn't reply to the fourth master. Because he felt that what the fourth master said might be right, but his heart missed Mo Xinyan too bitterly, so he would regard Ai Shuqiao as the object of his inner sustenance.
When the fourth master turned around and was about to leave, he said, "I have time to go out for a walk, come to my house." Then he left, but, maybe he wanted the Thirteenth Master to think about it himself.
On the third day of coming to Mongolia, Shu Qiao was still asleep, when he heard the third prince come in again, still shouting outside the screen: "Sister Wang, get up quickly, let's go out to walk the horses." ”
Shu Qiao had no choice but to drag his tired body to sit up and let Abi'er dress herself.
When he came to sit outside, Shu Qiao pretended to be very aggrieved and said, "Third brother, you can't let me sleep for a while, I don't feel tired and panicked so early in the morning." ”
The third prince was very energetic and said, "Second sister, you didn't like to sleep lazy before." ”
Shu Qiao looked back at the younger brother with half-hazy eyes and said, "Genius Mengmengliang, big brother, is this lazy sleep?" It's normal sleep, okay. ”
The third prince walked up to Shu Qiao all of a sudden, and Shu Qiao suddenly opened his eyes and said, "I, did you say something wrong?" ”
The third prince just grinned and said, "My sister seems to have become more virtuous when she came back this time, unlike the old love of beating me before." ”
Shu Qiao pinched the third prince's face and said, "Is this the case that you think I am your sister?" "The third prince has been struggling, crying and laughing. Shu Qiao let go of the lovely third prince and said, "Your face looks much better." ”
The third prince immediately made a "shhhhh ”
Shu Qiao was very strange and said, "Why don't you bring it up in front of your Eji." ”
This is Abi'er, who was standing aside and combing her hair, also came out and said: "Princess, just listen to the words of the third prince, and the third prince is also for your good." ”
Shu Qiao thought: Presumably this good brother is afraid that his stepmother will punish me.
Then he brushed his hair and said, "Okay." ”
After finishing the makeup, Shu Qiao said, "Go and walk the horse yourself, I'm going to go shopping with Abi'er." ”
But whatever the third prince said, he also wanted to follow, and he did not hesitate to use his own beautiful man's tricks, and tried his best to coquettish Shu Qiao, "Sister Wang, why don't you take me out too, I'm so handsome, you take me out with you, what a face." ”
Shu Qiao lifted the neckline of the third prince and said, "You are a big man, what's the fun of following us girls." ”
The third prince said: "I just like to follow my sister, didn't my sister like me before?" ”
Shu Qiao glanced at Abi'er and asked her if she was, and Abi'er nodded affirmatively. Shu Qiao felt that it didn't matter if she took this stupid brother, at least her brother could still make her happy, and then promised: "Okay, let's go." ”
Xiaohai was very happy, and followed him out, where is there still the appearance of a prince, but also, this prince is also a child, and there will always be the nature of a child.
Shu Qiao walked for a while, and saw that in addition to many women chatting outside, some men were drinking, and seeing some people riding horses, Shu Qiao couldn't help but shiver, for fear of being hit by horses.
The third prince next to him always urged Shu Qiao to go horseback riding, "Sister, do you still remember our majesty at the beginning, why don't we go horse racing too?" ”
Shu Qiao was afraid that the third prince would laugh at him later, so he kept shirking: "Okay, but I'll go to the toilet first, you wait here," and took the opportunity to run away, and turned his head uncomfortably and said: "Where are you waiting, don't run around......"
"Got it......" Xiaohai still responded very naively, and didn't react at all that he had been "discarded".
I was at ease by myself, and I happened to see someone cooking outside, Shu Qiao felt very novel, and just when I was about to run over, the third prince suddenly ran over and blocked in front of me: "Sister Wang, how can you deceive a child?" ”
Seeing that the third prince was so aggrieved, Shu Qiao had no choice but to smile weakly and said, "I didn't lie to you, I just got lost." ”
"Is that sister still riding a horse?" Xiaohai.
"Horseback riding? Next time, let's go to the grandmother's place to see what she is cooking," Shu Qiao immediately avoided the third prince and greeted the grandmother outside: "Grandma", the eldest lady saw that the princess was coming, and she was very happy to put her hand on her left chest to worship, but her mouth was speaking Mongolian with a grunt, Shu Qiao was not flustered, and tried to use her Chinese and gestures to make the other party understand her meaning.
Shu Qiao looked at the things in the pot as if they were very similar to milk, and knew that he couldn't speak Chinese, so he pointed to the things in the pot, and then took the bowl next to him and signaled to put the milk into the bowl, and then pretended to drink it, Shu Qiao looked at the grandmother happily, thinking that the grandmother understood what she meant. But the old lady was about to pull herself into the room as she spoke.
Shu Qiao was in a hurry, so he tried his best to say in Chinese: "I'm not going to go in and rest, I'm going to drink this...."
The third prince and Abi'er walked over slowly at this time, and Shu Qiao said to the third prince: "Brother, what is this grandmother talking about?" ”
The third prince said, "How did my sister learn Chinese, and she didn't even know Mongolian?" ”
Shu Qiao was still pulled by the old grandmother, so he had to cry and laugh and say, "Good brother, you can sue me." ”
The third prince watched Shu Qiao beg for mercy from him, and then said a lot of Mongolian to the old grandmother.
After listening to the words of the third prince, the old grandmother loosened her grip on the sleeves of her clothes.
Shu Qiao said goodbye to the old grandmother and immediately dragged Abi'er away, and the third prince kept calling Shu Qiao to stop behind him. After being away from it for some distance, Shu Qiao stopped and almost bumped into the third prince who was about to rush over. Shu Qiao began to drip the third prince's hair and said, "Say, what did that old lady say just now?" ”
The third prince shouted: "Sister Wang's subordinates are merciful, so I can speak." Shu Qiao let go of the third prince's hair, and the third prince seemed to be very innocent and said: "Sister, the old grandmother just said to pull you in to drink the cooked mare's milk, who would have thought that you would react so much." ”
Shu Qiao was very surprised and said, "Then why don't you take me in?" ”
The third prince pouted: "Didn't you just go in, sister?" ”
Shu Qiao thought that he hadn't drunk this milk refreshment, and said very frustratedly: "Ah, then I can't drink it." ”
The third prince moved his mind and said, "If my sister wants to drink, I have a way, but my sister has to promise me one condition." ”
Shu Qiao was still thinking about whether to agree, but at this time, Abier stood up and pulled Shu Qiao and said, "Princess, the third prince is setting up a trap for you to drill in, and there are many milk tea spots in your house." ”
The third prince standing on the side said reluctantly, "Abi'er, how can you do this? Isn't that harming me? ”
Shu Qiao approached the third prince step by step, stirred his eyes and eyebrows and said, "Could it be that you want to harm me?" ”
The third prince saw that Shu Qiao rolled up his sleeves and was not good, so he immediately found an excuse and said: "The horse is going to give birth to a cub, so leave first, and Sister Wang will play slowly." ”
After Shu Qiao sent the third prince away, he asked Abi'er to prepare mare's milk wine for herself.
