Chapter 55: Hidden Worries

Xiao Rui watched Xiao Yu leave, and then carefully rolled up the "Spring Stepping Map" on the bookcase, tied a red rope, and carefully put it into the dark grid of the bookcase in front of Zheng Tianyu. "You don't have to think about this picture."

Stingy! Zheng Tianyu touched his nose, and his peach blossom eyes were full of loss. Since Xiao Rui said so, he will definitely not give it to him again, what if he is happy?

As if he suddenly remembered something interesting, Zheng Tianyu's hooking peach blossom eyes were a little confused, "Xiao Er, today I look at Ayu's character that seems to be different from the rumors?" ”

"Zheng Shilang, you care more about your Yingying Yanyan, you shouldn't take care of Ayu's affairs."

They all call him Zheng Shilang, it seems that this guy is in a very unhappy mood. Zheng Tianyu felt that Xiao Er was a little weird today, and as for which weirdness, he couldn't say. He habitually touched his nose again.

"I'm just not worth it for her, when I saw her today, I knew that Ayu had such a noble character, and the rumors in the market were really misleading, and I don't know who ruined her reputation? You, the elder brother, didn't come forward to defend it, and now you don't even let me say it? ”

Seeing that he was silent, Zheng Tianyu looked at him and said indignantly, "Are you such a brother?" Although Ayu is not your own sister, the Lu family is good to you. Even if it's for the Lu family, you should make some effort. ”

"When you say that, am I really derelict in my duty as a brother?" Xiao Rui plays with taste.

It's not just a dereliction of duty, he doesn't have a sense of responsibility for his sister, as Xiao Rui's friend for many years, he has never heard him mention Ayu's name. It can be seen how negligent he is when he is an elder brother.

If Ayu is really as rumored, it is understandable, but Ayu is obviously so good.

Hey, Ayu is really pitiful, such a ruthless brother on the stall.

Zheng Tianyu stared at him disdainfully.

Xiao Rui's eyes narrowed slightly, and his eyes staring at him were full of coldness, "Tianyu, you seem to be particularly excited today?" Or do you have other thoughts about Ayu? The latter sentence Xiao Er almost burst out of his teeth, he approached Zheng Tianyu and looked at him with eyes as sharp as a knife.

"I'm just upset for Ayu. However, there is a way to be a fair lady, a gentleman. Even if I have thoughts about Ayu, that's normal. Men are unmarried, women are unmarried. Besides, no matter what I say, Zheng Tianyu is also the head of the four gentlemen of Jinling, handsome, chic and golden. With Ayu, she doesn't lose. Zheng Tianyu raised his head proudly and put on a posture that he thought was extremely handsome.

But seeing someone's gloomy face, he stopped ridiculing, sighed, and said with regret, "But although Ayu is good, I still can't forget Cui Xiaoxiao and Gu Panpan on the bank of the Qinhuai River." You can't have both fish and bear's paws, so I can only give up Ayu. ”

Someone looked at him lazily and was no longer tired of him. "What is the situation in the DPRK and China? What's new? ”

Zheng Tianyu's face was solemn, and he said, "Now the court and the central government are three-legged, in addition to the crown prince Ji Li faction and the third prince Ji Le, there is also the Qing school that has always maintained neutrality. However, in the past few days, His Majesty's dragon body has not been safe, and all forces are ready to move. I also got a new news that the seventh prince Ji Yanla will return to the imperial capital on the eighth day of the first month. ”

The Seventh Prince Himehiko? Xiao Er paced to the back of the bookcase and sat down, muttering in a low voice. His slender fingers tapped lightly on the bookcase.

This seventh prince was sent out of the imperial capital by Emperor Detai because of his frail health since he was a child, and he only returned to the imperial capital once a year during the Lantern Festival. At this juncture, he was recruited back by His Majesty, which is really imaginative, and it seems that the pattern of the DPRK and China is about to be broken again.

"What do we do next?"

"Now there is still some time before the Laba Festival, you should hurry up and gather those clear streams. I'll send someone to inquire about Ji Yan's side, you don't have to worry about it. ”

After the two finished chatting about business, it was already dusk. The autumn sunset had a faint sense of gloom, and Zheng Tianyu saw that it was getting late, so he said goodbye and left.

Xiao Rui didn't leave any guests, he opened the dark grid, took out the "Spring Stepping Picture" painted by Xiao Yu in the afternoon, and looked at it carefully. The afterglow of the setting sun was reflected on his face through the window paper, making this jade-like Langjun even more beautiful.

----------------------------------------------

Xue Qingyi took Ling'er back to Haitang Courtyard, and after placing Ling'er that night, he secretly cultivated, "Fire Heart Sutra". I don't know if it's Xiao Yu's physical problem, or something else. Xue Qingyi felt quite strenuous to cultivate the "Flame Heart Sutra" tonight.

The cold poison in his body and the "Flame Heart Sutra" faintly conflicted with each other, and Xue Qingyi felt that two streams of air, one cold and one hot, flowed and collided in his body. Alternating hot and cold, not giving in to each other.

The more she urged the Fire Heart Sutra, the faster the two air currents flowed, and Xue Qingyi had no choice but to give up. I was afraid that if I continued to cultivate, I would not be able to control the two air currents in my body. If you're not careful, you'll go crazy.

The "Fire Heart Sutra" could no longer be cultivated, so Xue Qingyi had to take a hot bath, go to bed early, and make plans again.

The next day, Xiao Rui didn't know if there was something wrong or if there was something else. Early in the morning, a scholar was sent to inform her that she didn't need to report to the study for the time being, and she didn't need to see him again, Xue Qingyi was happy.

After three days like this, Xue Qingyi got up at sunrise every day, took Ling'er to Lu's house to greet her, and accompanied her to finish lunch. Then go back to the Begonia Courtyard to write and paint, and draw pictures of neon clothes.

It's been a very comfortable day.

But it was this kind of peaceful day that made her uneasy, and she faintly felt that something big was about to happen.

Xiao Shi has not moved in the past few days, she can understand it, after all, Jiang is still old and spicy. Even if she wants to deal with her, she has to think about it carefully, find a good opportunity, and then wait for the opportunity to attack.

But Xiao Mingzhu and Xiao Bing are different, she offended them so badly the day she came back, these two people hated her to the core. It is impossible that three days have passed, but they have not moved at all, which is more intriguing.

Not to mention Xiao Bing, Xiao Mingzhu is an impulsive and irritable lord, according to her temper, she can't bear it so much, and their aunt, her daughter was slapped in the face, the two of them can still swallow their anger, they don't come out to make trouble, this matter is too strange.

And in the past few days, Chunhua and Qiuyue have looked at her with strange expressions, I don't know if she is too sensitive, I always feel that there is a hint of schadenfreude in their smiles.

Xue Qingyi felt that there was an invisible and huge conspiracy surrounding her.

It's a pity that in this Ningguo Mansion, there are very few people available to her, and it can be said that there are basically none, otherwise she can send someone to investigate carefully.
