Do?

What can a 10-year-old do?

Can't do it, wow!

Looking at Cai Yan's vigilant appearance, Liu Wei secretly regretted it.

At this time, a little eunuch who was waiting for Liu Wei stepped forward and said, "Shi Hou, the dining room has prepared a meal, I don't know if Shi Hou is also eating in the palace today?"

"Well, it's in the temple. ”

"Yes. ”

Not long after, three little eunuchs and four palace maids used food boxes to bring the vegetables and rice to the side hall, that is, the place where Liu Wei practiced calligraphy in the past few days, a full eight dishes and a soup, steaming.

At first glance, it doesn't seem like much, but if you think about it, even if it's just a green dish in the palace, the cost is probably not much less considering the excellence in the selection of ingredients and the cooking process.

Not to mention the daily meals of Emperor Ling, Empress He, and Empress Dowager Dong.

However, compared to the daily expenses of more than 2,000 eunuchs and tens of thousands of palace maids in the Ruoyang Han Palace at this time, the daily expenses of the emperor, empress, queen mother, and prince are nothing.

In short, luxury!

It's a luxury!

Even Liu Wei felt that if Han Gaozu, Emperor Guangwu and other Han dynasty masters knew about it, I am afraid that they would crawl out of the mausoleum angrily and teach their unworthy descendants a hard lesson.

If it is a peaceful and prosperous era, it is naturally nothing for the royal family to eat a little, but now it is at the end of the decline of the Han family, and Emperor Ling, Empress He, and Empress Dowager Dong are still so poor and extravagant, which really makes Liu Wei feel incredible.

When I sit on the throne of the Han dynasty one day, I should try to control the expenses of the Han Palace, and especially try to reduce the number of servants in the Han Palace......

Liu Wei thought secretly and greeted Cai Yan with a bright smile: "Wen Ji, let's eat first." ”

“......”

Cai Yan hesitated for a moment, and said in a low voice: "How dare the concubine ...... with Shi Hou?"

Before she finished speaking, she was grabbed by Liu Wei and pulled to the side hall.

At the subsequent meal, Liu Wei vigorously served Cai Yan with vegetables, too, after all, this talented woman who couldn't help but make people feel pity was too thin.

Liu Yan's enthusiasm made Cai Yan feel a lot of pressure, although she also vaguely realized that this Shi Hou had no ill will towards her, and seemed to really like her......

Well, it made her stress even more.

A pair of ten-year-old boys and fifteen-year-old girls naturally can't finish the eight dishes and a soup, in fact, they may not even have a quarter, and the leftover dishes should be brought back to the dining room and eaten by the eunuchs or palace maids in the palace.

As the eunuchs and palace maids retreated one after another, only Liu Wei and Cai Yan were left in the side hall, which made the atmosphere inevitably a little awkward.

The main reason was that Cai Yan felt uncomfortable, after all, even a girl who was nearly fifteen years old noticed that Shi Hou's gaze at her was too aggressive, as if she wanted to swallow her, which made her think of the few guys who coveted her appearance in the village where she lived before.

"Shi Hou ......"

Either she wanted to break the embarrassing atmosphere, or she wanted to know the doubts in her heart, she mustered up the courage to take the initiative to ask Liu Wei for the first time: "I don't know how Shi Hou learned about the concubine?"

"Ah, because most of the emperor's heirs in the palace died young, I was raised in the folk since I was a child, and I was raised by my teacher Shi Daoren. At that time, I learned about Wen Ji's deeds from my teacher's friend, who said that Wen Ji could clearly distinguish the sound of broken strings when she was nine years old...... "Liu Wei came to a 'teacher and friend without middle school'.

Cai Yan suddenly heard this, and immediately secretly hated the 'Friend of the Historical Daoren'.

If it weren't for that person, how could she have been forced to leave her biological father and be taken to the Luoyang Han Palace thousands of miles away, and because of this, her marriage to the second son of the Wei family was broken up?

She sighed faintly, and when she came back to her senses, she found that Liu Wei had sat next to her at some point, and was observing her up close without blinking.

Knowing that this little color embryo was only ten years old, she shouldn't be able to do anything to her, but she was still looked at Xia Fei's cheeks and looked away uncomfortably.

"History, History, ......"

She said in a panic: "If Shi Hou doesn't dislike it, the concubine is willing to present a song for Shi Hou." ”

"Okay. Liu Wei agreed.

Hearing this, Cai Yan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, stood up with relief, and went to the front hall to bring the piano she brought.

At this time, Liu Wei noticed that there seemed to be burnt marks on the tail of the piano, and secretly said in his heart: Could this be the rumored Jiaowei qin? Cai Yong handed over this piano to her daughter?

Jiaowei qin, this is one of the four famous pianos in ancient times, it is said that it is equal to Qi Huan Gong's 'bell', Chu Zhuang Wang's 'winding beam', Sima Xiangru's 'green qi', according to legend, Cai Yong fled to the land of Wuhui when he made, I can't imagine that today I am willing to give this piano to her daughter Cai Yan to bring to the Han Palace in Luoyang.

But think about it, my daughter was forcibly brought, and a piano is nothing.

Perhaps noticing Liu Wei's gaze, Cai Yan explained the origin of the piano, and it was indeed the Jiaowei piano.

Seeing Cai Yan's proud face, proud that her father could save the best wood suitable for making the piano from the stove fire at the last moment, like Bole Soma, and make this Jiaowei piano, Liu Wei was also happy to praise twice: "Cai Langzhong is worthy of being famous all over the world." ”

Sure enough, Cai Yan was very happy, changed his previous cold and lonely appearance, and showed a little smile.

She asked Liu Bian, "I don't know which tune Shi Hou wants to hear?"

"Will Wen Ji know?" asked Liu Wei with a pretended surprise of surprise.

Cai Yan seemed to have acquiesced to Wen Ji's title, and seemed to be humble, but in fact said with some pride: "I don't dare to say that I have all the learning, seven or eight out of ten should be there." ”

Liu Wei didn't doubt this, after all, there were so many famous piano songs in this era, and Cai Wenji learned the piano from her father Cai Yong since she was a child, so she naturally mastered it.

However, this made it difficult for Liu Wei, after all, he was familiar with this period of history out of interest, but the qin music of this era was not within the scope of his interests, how did he know what tunes were there?

So he said, "Then please ask Wen Ji to play a song casually." ”

Just play a song?

“...... Well, well. ”

Cai Yan guessed a few points when he heard it, and glanced at Liu Wei with some disgust, out of interest in Fuqin, so he faded a little with Liu Wei's words, and even pouted unconsciously.

Although the appearance is very cute, the disgust that seems to be overflowing also makes Liu Wei a little unhappy, and he still owes a lesson to this little girl.

After a while, the melodious sound of the piano gradually sounded in the hall.

I have to say that the piano is known as the sound of heaven and earth, and Cai Yan plays the Jiaowei piano again, the music is indeed beautiful, but unfortunately Liu Wei is not a person who appreciates this music, for him, the sound of the piano is good, but it is just like that, far less than his interest in Cai Yan himself.

So when Cai Yan was playing the piano, he sat beside her, looking at Cai Yan with his right hand on his cheek, looking carefully from top to bottom, the faintly aggressive gaze made Cai Yan uncomfortable, and she played a few wrong notes unconsciously, which made her face more and more blushing.

At the end of the song, Liu Wei stroked his hands and praised: "Wen Ji played really well." ”

“......”

Cai Yan looked tired, sighed lightly, and couldn't help but think of the second son of the Hedong Wei clan who had only met a few times.

At that time, everyone praised her and the second son of Wei as a match made in heaven, and she herself was more satisfied, but what ......

Looking at the face in front of her that was even more immature than her, she suddenly complained to God: Why can't God be beautiful as an adult?

Just when she felt sorry for herself, a little eunuch suddenly entered and said: "Shi Hou, Zhao Changzhi asks to see." ”

Liu Wei frowned slightly, then nodded and said, "Yes, please." ”

After a while, Zhao Zhong, the middle attendant, hurriedly walked into the hall, took the lead in saluting Liu Wei, and immediately said with a smile: "Shi Hou, the queen mother learned that Miss Cai had entered the palace, and wanted to invite Shi Hou and Miss Cai to Changqiu Palace together, so that she could have a look......

While speaking, he also looked Cai Yan up and down a few times, and saw that Cai Yan's daughter was yellow and thin, thin and thin, and even inferior to some palace maids in the palace, and secretly muttered in his heart: Shi Hou is so good?

I have to say that at first, he thought that Cai Yong's daughter looked like a fairy, who knew that it was just a yellow-haired girl, and what was even more unbelievable was that according to Guo Sheng, Shi Hou was actually very satisfied with this yellow-haired girl, and she was still diligent in every way, which was really incomprehensible.

When he observed Cai Yan, Cai Yan also nervously observed this Zhao Chang Attendant, after all, as far as she knew, most of the Chang Attendants in the palace were flattering and heinous traitors, and the corporal in the world was eager to get rid of them as soon as possible.

"The Queen Mother?"

Liu Wei scratched his chin, thought for a while, and finally nodded in agreement.

So under the leadership of Zhao Zhong, Liu Wei took Cai Yan to the Changqiu Palace where Empress He lived.

Somehow, a lot of palace maids gathered outside the Changqiu Palace, and when Liu Wei and Cai Yan arrived, they were talking in groups in the distance, and even pointing.

"Could that woman be Cai Langzhong's daughter?"

"You don't look good......

"I thought she looked so good......"

"What is she wearing? Is it Shi Hou's clothes?"

"Whew-"

Cai Yan's ears were tipped, and she vaguely heard the discussion of those palace maids in the distance, and her face flushed with shame, after all, her dress was indeed not as good-looking as those palace maids in the palace, and she was even wearing men's winter clothes, which looked nondescript.

Just as she was ashamed, she suddenly felt someone grab her hand.

She subconsciously turned her head, but saw that Shi Hou said to her with a smile on his face: "Wen Ji, don't let the queen mother wait for a long time. ”

“...... Well. ”

Somehow, Cai Yan suddenly felt a warm current surging in her heart, which made her respond to Liu Wei beside her for the first time in a less cold and lonely manner, and she didn't even realize what she had responded to.

She only knew that the moment Liu Wei held her hand, the surroundings suddenly fell silent, and the palace maids who had been talking in private before all shut up.

He......

Are you defending me?

At the moment when she was dragged into the Changqiu Palace by Liu Bian, Cai Yan looked at Liu Bian, who was even shorter than her, with mixed feelings.

Although she still had complaints in her heart, she had to admit that from the time she entered the palace to this moment, this Shi Hou had indeed been very good to her.

Although she didn't understand why.
