Chapter 123: There is a situation under the table
Chapter 123 There is a situation under the table
"You know what!" Qinglin was a little unhappy when he saw his ridicule, "The National Teacher only entered the palace yesterday, and today she entered the Qinzheng Palace to review and review for her father, which shows how much she is trusted by her father!" ”
Qingli shrugged his shoulders indifferently, and didn't intend to stand there and wait with him, but since he had the intention to invite Liu Rumo over, why did he invite him too?
Poured himself a glass of wine, Qingli leaned on the seat, Qinglin's long-awaited figure came into view, his eyes were full of disdain, if it was him, he would never choose to send someone to invite her on the second day of the Qingdi banquet Liu Rumo, not to mention that the slightest movement at this time would cause the suspicion of the Qingdi, Liu Rumo alone, I am afraid that if he agrees to come, he will not simply be invited to come.
Early in the morning, he first received an invitation from Qinglin, and then Emperor Qingdi sent someone to deliver a decree, saying that he wanted to renovate the prince's mansion for him, and even the monthly silver was no longer managed by the queen, but directly asked the treasury to send it to his mansion on time every month.
The queen has been not good to him over the years, to say that it is not good for him, when he confined himself in the deep palace, it was the Su family who sent people to bring him food from time to time, and she also helped him when he went out of the palace to build the mansion, but if you want to say okay, it really doesn't count, the purpose of the Su family to do this is nothing more than to see that the Qing Emperor gave him a token and recognized his identity as a prince, so he inevitably competed with Qinglin and took precautions in advance.
"What is the sixth brother thinking?" Qinglin had walked in front of him.
Qingli's hand holding the wine glass tightened, and said with a smile: "The little brother is thinking that the national teacher may need to come for a while!" ”
"The six princes are wrong!" The woman's clear voice suddenly sounded from the door of the hall, "This official is fortunate to be invited by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, how can he not be delayed?" ”
Liu Rumo curled the corners of his lips and looked at the two people who were sitting and standing, Qingli put down his wine glass and stood up, but Qinglin was one step faster than him. has already come over to guide Liu Rumo, "National Teacher, please!" ”
Since she finished speaking, Qingli has not spoken. He bowed politely to her, then sat down on his own. Liu Rumo didn't care about these false courtesies, and sat down opposite Qingli under Qinglin's guidance.
Then Qinglin returned to his main seat, picked up the wine jug and poured Liu Rumo half a glass with his own hands, and then turned his hand to fill Qingli's wine glass, raised his wine glass at the moment, raised it towards the two of them, and said loudly: "The national teacher is busy with official business, so he can take the time to come." Hongu is already overjoyed! Here's the first thing to do! ”
Raising his head and taking a sip of the wine in the cup, Qinglin instructed the palace maid who was waiting behind him: "You can pass lunch!" ”
"Wait!" Liu Rumo raised his hand to stop the palace maid who wanted to go out to pass the meal, "Help the official bring a cup of hot tea again!" ”
As soon as she landed on the ground, both Qinglin and Qingli's eyes noticed her untouched wine glass, obviously saying this to them, intended to show that she did not intend to drink with them.
Qingli doesn't care, he is here to see what Qinglin wants to do today, whether to drink or not depends on his mood, Liu Rumo drinks or not, it really has nothing to do with him, but Qinglin is a little thoughtful. Tentatively asked, "The National Teacher doesn't want to drink with the main palace?" ”
"Of course not, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has misunderstood, and this official still has unfinished official business today. Later, after lunch, you need to rush to the Qinzheng Palace in time, drinking is afraid that you will make a mistake, in case you are late and wrong, the emperor will blame His Royal Highness the Prince, right? ”
It happened that the palace maid came over with a tea cup, and Liu Rumo took it in her hand, lowering her eyes and separating the tea leaves, waiting to listen to Qinglin's answer.
How can Qinglin answer?
Liu Rumo has important official duties on the left, and the emperor blames on the right. He had nothing to say, so he had to pick up the conversation in a sloppy manner. Slightly embarrassed, he drank a glass of wine to himself, "That's a shame." Today, in order to invite the national teacher, the palace specially ordered someone to dig up a good bamboo leaf green on the altar! ”
Qing Li didn't know what he thought, and suddenly laughed, Qinglin heard him laugh at first glance, thinking that he was laughing at himself, and the embarrassment turned into thin anger: "What is the matter with the sixth brother suddenly laughing?" ”
After drinking two glasses of wine in a row, Qingli said apologetically: "Second brother, don't blame, the younger brother thought of a drunkard he had seen in Lanyuezhai, and when he was drunk, he yelled at the guests in the room, saying that Zhu Yeqing's wine is made from Zhu Ye Qing, which is really ridiculous!" ”
"Isn't it made from bamboo leaves?" Qinglin doesn't pay attention to these, and he wastes academics on weekdays, but he hasn't understood what Qingli means.
Liu Rumo picked up the wine glass, approached her nose and smelled it, the aroma of the wine was overflowing, it was indeed extraordinary, but it was a pity that she didn't want to drink it, and put the wine glass down again, "Bamboo leaf green is the name of the wine, and the other is the name of the snake, I think no one has tried to use bamboo leaf green to make bamboo leaf green, right?" ”
Qing Li knew that she understood what she meant, looked at her, the two looked at each other speechlessly, but completely put aside Qinglin, who was not among them, obviously he was the master, and the two of them were guests, and now the two looked at each other and could talk together, which really made his face a little unbearable.
Just as he was about to open his mouth to find a little sense of zài, Liu Rumo took a step away and looked at Qinglin: "His Royal Highness the Prince, there is a sentence that I don't know if this official should say or not?" ”
As soon as Qinglin saw her open Qingli and talk to him, the moment he met her gaze, the whole person was frozen on the spot, and replied in a daze: "Master Guoshi, please speak!" ”
"Why did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince choose to invite this official to the East Palace today?" Liu Rumo slowed down his tone, and said word by word very slowly, Qingli supported the table with his arms in his hands, looking like he was watching a good show.
Qinglin seemed to be trapped in her eyes, looking at her idiotically, and answering her questions: "The National Teacher is a close confidant of his father, and he is in the limelight, and this palace intends to make friends with the National Teacher!" ”
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should know that this official is succeeded in advance, and he will assist the new emperor in the future, and the prince is undecided, and this official will never have anything to do with any of your princes before this!"
Liu Rumo said calmly, and the people who were guarding in the open and secretly could hear her answer clearly, Qinglin came back to his senses in an instant, and was a little embarrassed that he had just looked at Liu Rumo's delicate face and was stunned, and hurriedly retracted his gaze, his eyes swept over Qingli on the side, and found that he was looking at him with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and cleared his throat and said: "Let the national teacher laugh, this palace was dazzled by the demeanor of the national teacher for a while, no wonder!" ”
Qing Xun couldn't help but sneer, this idiot was used by Liu Rumo as an experiment to practice a hand of mysticism, and thought it was his own magic, it was really stupid!
"The demeanor can't be talked about, this official is the first female national teacher in the Liu family, and it is natural that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not used to it, how can this official blame His Royal Highness the Prince?"
Qinglin saw that she not only didn't say anything to blame, but also found him under the steps, secretly happy, and his words were even more humble: "The national teacher is broad-minded, and the palace is impressed!" ”
Big-minded?
Qingli followed his words and looked at Liu Rumo, down from his neck, wrapped in layers of clothes under his jacket, but he couldn't tell whether it was broad or not, but this time, it slowly fell down on her slender waist tightened with a belt, and the touch of hugging her arms in the carriage before came to her heart, and her palm was slightly fisted, soft as if it was still in the palm of her hand.
Liu Rumo noticed that Qingli's gaze fell on her, but Qinglin was staring at her without blinking, and kept trying to talk to her, so she didn't take her eyes off to look at Qingli, but this didn't mean that she should let him stare at her in vain.
The foot under the table stretched forward and landed on the instep of the person opposite, crushing it heavily, and the smile that Yu Guang skimmed to Qing Li's lips obviously stiffened for a moment, and then the smile enlarged, and he raised his hand and raised his head to drink.
The table was decorated with fine silk and satin, covering up a qiē under the table, naturally no one noticed Liu Rumo's movements, she was still talking to Qinglin with a match, but Qingli kept pouring herself a drink.
The palace maid passed the meal quickly, followed by a row of palace eunuchs in the imperial dining room, each holding a square tray in his hand, and stepped into the hall with the footsteps of the palace maid, standing in two columns in front of the three of them.
Liu Rumo laughed lightly, and the foot under the table that was grinding Qingli's instep was retracted, and with Qinglin's action of beckoning the palace maids to serve the food one by one, he lowered his eyes to hide his smile, and slowly sipped hot tea.
She kicked hard, the force was not light, when Fang fell on his instep, Qingli first stiffened, and then there was a slight pain from the instep of the foot spread throughout the body, gradually the force became greater and greater, Rao is he is very able to endure the pain, this sudden attack, for a while the pain was a little stronger, I couldn't help frowning, and I was afraid that I would be looked at by Qinglin's idiot, or Liu Rumo saw the joke, so I had to use the action of pouring wine and drinking to make myself move and cover up.
The dishes in the palace are really good, dazzlingly carved and arranged, meticulous, the aroma of the meal from the shop hooked Liu Rumo's appetite, Qinglin introduced this to her very attentively, recommended that, Liu Rumo also followed his introduction, sandwiched the dishes one bite at a time, and completely ignored Qingli, who was crushed by her foot and was still frowning.
It's good to have a small appetite, even if she looked at the sumptuous table of imperial meals in front of her, Liu Rumo tasted them one by one, drank half a bowl of soup and was full, put down the chopsticks in her hand, Qinglin was still eating, seeing her stop, she hurriedly put down the chopsticks, "The national teacher doesn't like these dishes?" It's okay, Hongu asked them to come with a new one! ”
Saying that he was really about to summon someone, Liu Rumo shook his head, summoned the palace maid to add tea, swallowed it slowly with a sip of tea, and stood up: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is hospitable, the official is already full, and now there are still many affairs waiting for the official to deal with in the Qinzheng Palace, so the official will leave first!" ”
It's really like Qinglin invited her without any discrepancy, just came over for lunch, turned around and left after eating, so Qinglin couldn't react, and before she could say anything for a while, she was leaving? So he was anxious to keep her, Qinglin opened his mouth and said, "Won't the national teacher stay for a while?" These dishes are specially prepared for the National Teacher! (To be continued)
