Chapter Eighty-Four: A Brief Mention of the Past

Chess is like a game, every step is a calculation, if one step is wrong, it can lead to a good situation, although Lai Zhaoyi said that he is not good at this, but in fact he is also a good player in chess, and he can't see who loses and who wins after a game. The abacus falls, and the children all have doorways, but in this chess skill, Qin Shujiu still wins, and when the son on this chess surface asks Qin Shujiu to eat a few pieces, Lai Zhaoyi laughed.

"My sister is really like hearing it, it's hard to calculate the mind on this chess, and I thought that this step was right, but who knew that my sister borrowed the way and turned to harm the black man in this palace, but it was also miscalculated." If it is said that Qin Shujiu is really a good hand, even Liqing sighs at her ingenuity in the chess game, and it is common for Lai Zhaoyi to win.

Lai Zhaoyi's boasting should be true, but the humility that he should have Qin Shujiu should not be forgotten, and he immediately got up again and said: "Thanks to Zhaoyi's concubines, I was able to win this half-eye." After Qin Shujiu's words, Lai Zhaoyi smiled and responded: "This palace didn't give in, but tried its best, who knows that it still can't win my sister." It's my sister.,Even if you don't know it, the palace can see it.,My sister is merciful? ”

"I should do my best to play against Zhaoyi, how dare I keep my hand privately?" Even if she really showed mercy, she wouldn't say it, and this made Lai Zhaoyi's heart full, and she nodded and pushed the fruit spot on the table to her and then said.

"My sister is sincere, but not like the rest of the concubines in the palace, if she really tries her best, it seems that the chess skills of this palace have improved a lot, after all, this palace has heard before, and my sister and Your Majesty narrowly defeated Your Majesty."

It was indeed a game with Liqing before, and at that time, because Xu Taiwei accused Qin Shangshu of being a loyal minister, Qin Shujiu understood his meaning in the chess game. It was also the narrowly won that time that Lai Zhaoyi knew, and even if he lowered his head, Qin Shujiu responded.

"That narrow victory was just that Your Majesty let the concubine, the concubine's chess skills are not worth half of Your Majesty's, if it weren't for Your Majesty's concession, how could you ask for that piece of skill." After speaking, Lai Zhaoyi also nodded and said: "This is also true, Your Majesty's chess skills are high, but Your Majesty can let your sister be enough to see that your sister has a sacred heart." ”

Saying this, a palace man came to the side, and there were two plates of dim sum on the lacquer plate in the palace person's hand, and he went to the edge of the stone table in the pavilion, and the palace man said: "Yu Zhaoyi, this is the dim sum given by the concubine, and the waiter chose to send it to you according to your recent preferences." ”

"The concubine gave it herself?" As soon as he heard that the pastries on this plate were given by Concubine Zheng Guifei herself, Lai Zhaoyi asked the palace people to put the pastries on the table, and got the order to take the pastries, because Lai Zhaoyi instructed the palace people to put the pastries in front of Qin Shujiu. After one plate was put away, he was about to take another plate, but he heard Lai Zhaoyi say, "Wait, that plate is made of pine nuts?" Seeing that Lai Zhaoyi asked the palace people, he stopped his movements and responded: "Yu Zhaoyi, it is made of fresh pine nuts." I heard Lai Zhaoyi say: "If it is a pine nut, then put it in the main palace." ”

Qin Shujiu can't touch pine nuts, thinking about it, Lai Zhaoyi still remembers that she was afraid that Qin Shujiu accidentally touched and injured her body, and she was kind. Lai Zhaoyi's kindness Qin Shujiu naturally remembered it, and thanked him with a smile. After putting the snack away, the palace people retreated, and Lai Zhaoyi looked at Qin Shujiu and said, "This palace remembers that my sister can't touch this pine nut." ”

"Zhaoyi has a heart, the concubine is indeed very afraid of this thing, although there are many people who like it, but the concubine is categorically afraid to try." Taboo is what you have to say, so that others don't remember to accidentally give it to themselves when the time comes, and that's bad. Qin Shujiu replied calmly, Lai Zhaoyi also smiled, and after nodding his head, Lai Zhaoyi said: "It seems that this palace and my sister are really fateful, and this palace that can't touch Songzi has actually known someone before." ”

"Hey, Zhaoyi also has old people who can't touch this thing." There was a little more surprise in his words, as if he didn't expect that there would be someone like him, and after being surprised, he also had a little acquaintance, Qin Shujiu asked solemnly: "I don't know who that person is, if there is a fate, I would like to see him." The words were about the person who happened to be attentive, and Qin Shujiu had a little thought about that person, but this person was obviously not visible to her.

After smelling Qin Shujiu's words, Lai Zhaoyi did not answer immediately, but after tasting the pine nut cake made in the dining room of the Taiye Palace, Lai Zhaoyi said: "Even if Sister Miao wants to see it, I don't think I have this opportunity." ”

"What does Zhaoyi mean by this?" First stunned for a moment, and then as if he had figured out something, Qin Shujiu asked softly, "But because of ......"

Asking is asking, but the words of asking are not fully spoken, but only three words are paused. But just these three words can make Lai Zhaoyi know what she means, nodded after understanding, and then somehow shook her head again, tasted the pine nut cake, and couldn't help but feel a little astringent in her mouth, and after taking a bite of herbal tea, Lai Zhaoyi said.

"Just as Sister Ao said guess, that person is indeed not alive."

"Not alive? It's desolate, but this life, old age, sickness and death are things that everyone has to experience, and Zhaoyi should not be sad. Seeing Lai Zhaoyi say such things in such a tone, she thought that it was an old friend who was a deep friend, and she remembered that the old man felt sad in her heart, Qin Shujiu was relieved, who could only say this comforting word, but saw Lai Zhaoyi and said: "Heartbroken? It seems that my sister misunderstood, although the person knew the palace, but it was not an old friend, and her death was not sad for the palace. ”

After saying such words, Lai Zhaoyi's gaze fell directly on Qin Shujiu's face, and his eyes did not move under the words, but he chuckled and said such words. Although it is not a deep friendship, it is unreasonable to say such things to a deceased person, but the deceased person that Lai Zhaoyi said is just a person who has nothing to do with Qin Shujiu, so she should not have an overly reaction.

Qin Shujiu naturally wouldn't have a reaction that shouldn't be, looking back at Lai Zhaoyi as usual, Qin Shujiu said: "It turned out to be just an acquaintance, although I don't know who the angry person is, but after all, I still sigh a little." ”

"My sister sighs for that person?" Lai Zhaoyi asked, and Qin Shujiu nodded in response: "It's a little bit, after all, the concubine has never met a person who can't touch the pine nuts like the concubine. ”

sighed lightly, but after this sigh, I heard Lai Zhaoyi say: "My sister is kind-hearted, but this kindness can't be given to people at will, my sister doesn't know who that person is to say such things." If you know, I'm afraid it's too late to avoid it. ”

"Avoidance?" Speaking of this, it was so important, and immediately Qin Shujiu also realized that that person was not an ordinary person, so he was busy collecting color and then asked, "What does Zhaoyi mean by this?" ”

"Sister, do you still remember that day in the Yanying Palace, the palace served a crisp cake, and accidentally mentioned a person, Your Majesty's face changed drastically when he heard it, and he was angry?"

Of course, Qin Shujiu remembered this matter, so he nodded his head immediately, and Lai Zhaoyi continued: "The person that this palace said is the person who makes His Majesty angry. After a pause, Lai Zhaoyi suddenly asked, "I don't know if my sister knows that I am the first person to rebel?" ”

"The first rebel?" Whispering in a low voice, Qin Shujiu shook his head and responded, "The concubine doesn't know." After she responded, Lai Zhaoyi said: "My sister is just in the prime of her life, and it is reasonable to not know, after all, it was fourteen years ago, although more than ten years have passed, but it is still a taboo in this palace." ”

Fourteen years ago, the tilting clan was proud of their achievements and lawlessness, and they shook the heart of the Lord without sacredness, and they were angry and complained about the people's livelihood, because the heavens could not see that the person who misled the king and the country was the star of the glow, and the glow of the heart was a very fierce omen, and the respect of the Ninety-Five was bound to be hurt by its ferocity, and then the country would inevitably be broken and the people would not survive. At that time, the saint was responsible for the protection of the Jiangshan Sheji and at the same time took care of the head of the Tan clan and supported the merits, and wanted to let him disarm and return to the field to enjoy his old age, but who knew that the people of the Tan clan had already hidden evil intentions, and actually raised troops to rebel, and finally the loyal generals of the court designed to ask for their lives, so as to end the evil heart clan so as not to destroy the life and move the foundation.

Raising troops to rebel is a crime of treason, and it is really a rebellious minister and thief, and committing such a heinous crime should be a serious crime of the nine clans.

"Because the Tan clan has evil intentions, even if Your Majesty is kind and wants to keep them, they can't stay, and in the end, they can only make an order to behead all the doors, and not a single living mouth can be left." The events of more than ten years ago are now talked about, and it also makes people panic when they hear it, after all, Qin Shujiu is just an ordinary daughter's family, and after hearing such a terrible thing, his complexion naturally changed slightly, and his body was slightly not, Qin Shujiu said.

"Such a thing happened more than ten years ago, this rebellion is a serious crime to exterminate the nine clans, how can anyone commit it. Your Majesty loves the people, why would someone hide such a bad intention, this is not a matter of harming the country and the people? ”

"Such a person only has the ambition of power in his heart, how can he take care of Chaoming, I am afraid that after helping His Majesty to ascend the throne, he also had a bad heart, so he sat down and lost his loyalty."

The person who conspired against him died innocently, if it was because of everything, Qin Shujiu also recognized this point, and nodded at Qin Shujiu and asked: "Then Zhaoyi just mentioned that person, could it be that he is also a sinner of this clan?" Seeing that she asked Lai Zhaoyi, she answered, that is, she said: "That person is indeed a sinner, and he is also a first-class wicked person, the eldest daughter of a criminal minister." His Majesty treated her sincerely, but who knew that she was the kind of vicious daughter who used people to kill others with sincerity, and she used His Majesty's heart to treat heroes kindly, but she used a poisonous trick to almost harm Your Majesty's life, so vicious as a snake and scorpion, my sister thinks that Your Majesty can not be angry when she remembers her? ”

I don't know if the last sentence or two sentences are Qin Shujiu's thinking or Lai Zhaoyi's deliberateness, she always feels that Lai Zhaoyi seems to be a little slow and long between the words when she says these two sentences, and every word seems to engrave these words into Qin Shujiu's ears.

The vicious person of the snake and scorpion, for mentioning the person who also can't touch the pine nuts, is not only not a friend for Lai Zhaoyi, but a vicious person of the snake and scorpion. Such words are enough to see Lai Zhaoyi's resentment and deep hatred for that person, as a citizen of Jiang Country, such a rebellious person should be bitter and hateful, and at the moment, Qin Shujiu also lost his previous desire to make friends with that person, but reprimanded the rebellion of the Qian clan.

Anyone who rebels can be punished, even after more than ten years. Unexpectedly, Qin Shujiu's usual temperament is also amiable, but he is such a loyal and courageous person, and at the moment it also made Lai Zhaoyi nod with a heart and then said: "My sister is smart, Your Majesty likes it very much, and the sisters who want to come to the palace are all in their eyes." Although His Majesty is holy, but no matter how holy people are, there are always taboo things, and this palace is also happy with his sister, that is, he will tell his sister about this taboo in His Majesty's heart, and if he touches this matter in the future, his sister should be cautious. ”

Hearing this, it was really for her good, and she specially reminded herself that as the smart person in Lai Zhaoyi's mouth, Qin Shujiu was self-conscious, and he bowed to thank him. There are a lot of things to mention in the palace, and the person who mentioned the point can be regarded as a favor, and after seeing Qin Shujiu and thank him, Lai Zhaoyi just smiled, let him get up again, and then returned his gaze to the previous situation.

Half eye, although it only won half a eye, but this victory is a victory, but the ease of this chess game does not mean that the same is true in the palace. After looking at the chess surface for a while, Lai Zhaoyi said: "I have learned a lot from playing this game of chess with my sister today, and I can use it next time Your Majesty summons me." ”

"Zhaoyi praised it."

Smiled and moved his gaze from the chess game to Qin Shujiu, Lai Zhaoyi said: "It is said that this chess game is a good way to kill time, and now it seems that it is also, after this game of chess, it has been a lot of days and hours to talk about these days, and now that I look at this hour, this palace is really a little tired." ”

Since Lai Zhaoyi felt tired and wanted to go back to the palace to rest, the palace people heard that they got up, stood in the pavilion and bowed until Lai Zhaoyi left the cold pavilion and Qin Shujiu, and then got up. Lai Zhaoyi left, she didn't have to hang that kind face, her face and eyes sank at that moment, looking at the direction of Lai Zhaoyi's departure, her eyes were full of murderous intent.

This is to slander the Tilt clan.

Hearing about what happened back then, Qin Shujiu listened to it from beginning to end, and did not let people see that there was anything wrong or that she was involved with the Tilt family, and her years of patience had already told her how to restrain her anger. However, this restraint does not mean that the anger has subsided, and once it is located behind the person, it is obvious.

Qin Shujiu was angry, Nanzhi was naturally full of anger, if it weren't for Qin Shujiu's warning in advance that this encounter was not good and she wanted to restrain Wanji, and Lai Zhaoyi almost all of her thoughts were on Qin Shujiu, Nanzhi was only afraid of missing the suspicion here. Now that there is no one around, she vented the anger that she had been hiding for a long time, standing behind Qin Shujiu, Nanzhi said angrily: "That person is so nonsense about the general and the eldest lady, sister, can Nanzhi take her life?" ”

"No." Qin Shujiu's anger was above Nanzhi, but she was also sensible, Lai Zhaoyi suddenly mentioned in front of her that the past was definitely not a kind reminder of herself, she must have hidden something, if she attacked her now, she was afraid that she would be ruined. Reprimanded Nan Zhi for not allowing her to come, Qin Shujiu said: "Remind me so kindly, how could I take her life, Lai Zhaoyi, I think she is suspicious of something, and I came here to mention it today." ”

"Coming? What does my sister mean? After a slight pause, Nanzhi said, "Sister means that she is really suspicious of her sister?" ”

"She's not a simple person, and it's always true that she will doubt me, but she's also a suspicious person, and she won't act rashly if she doesn't have it." opened his mouth to speak, and after a slight pause, he said again: "It seems that this person has to be pulled out quickly." ”

Don't stay in the way, because if you don't, you'll be left with unnecessary trouble.
