Chapter 165: Sweetheart (Desperate for a Monthly Pass!! )
"Leave now? Are you getting better, my lord? Situ Yingsleeve had just sorted out the file that Xie Dongli was going to read at night and put it on the bookcase, and when he heard that he was about to leave, he couldn't help but feel annoyed that his work had been in vain.
Xie Dongli coughed, walked up to her and asked Situ Yingsleeve, "It should be okay, right?" Do I still have a rash on my face? ”
A mutton fat candle was lit on a small bronze tree candlestick in the house.
A few days ago, the room was lit brightly and almost as much as daytime, but today the light suddenly dimmed a little.
Situ Yingsleeve blinked, raised her eyes, and found that she didn't seem to be able to see Xie Donglian's face clearly, so she had to take the mirror over, hold it up to Xie Donglian's face and say, "Look for yourself." ”
Xie Dongli stretched out his hand to separate the mirror, and said, "This mirror is vague, and I can't see the figure clearly at all." ”
"Huh?" Situ Yingsleeve hurriedly turned over the mirror and said in amazement: "I just wiped it yesterday, why is it dirty like this?" -- It's really hard to live here, it's too dusty. As he spoke, he put the mahogany mirror buckle on the back of the snail on the bookcase, and stood on tiptoe to look at Xie Dongli.
Xie Dongli lowered his head, and saw her blinking her lacquered eyes, her straight and square little nose wrinkled, and her plump lips were slightly pursed because of her tiptoe efforts, pink and tender like the moon.
Closer, her warm breath sprayed softly on his face, warm with a refreshing fragrance, like jasmine, or maybe wood, the smell of the late summer night after the heavy rain, and in an instant, it actually evoked many memories of Xie Dongli's past......
Situ Yingsleeve's eyes widened, but he found that his eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of mist, and he couldn't see everything clearly. Of course, she couldn't see Xie Donglian's face clearly, was her eyes bad?
Situ Yingsleeve rubbed his eyes. Then stand on your tiptoes harder and get closer. tried to see Xie Donglian's face clearly, and finally stood on his toes.
She didn't know that at this time, this posture, her face, and Xie Dongli who was hanging his head were only a finger's distance away......
"My lord, the boat is ready, you can leave immediately......" Ah Shun opened the curtain of the moon cave door and walked in, and the first thing he saw was Situ Ying standing on tiptoe. Pouting, it's almost kissing the adult's face!
"Ah Si! What are you doing?! "It's too much!
With Ah Shun's loud shout, the mutton fat candle that was very dim in the room just now suddenly lit up, and the hazy mist in front of Situ Yingsleeve's eyes suddenly dispersed, and Xie Dongxuan's face suddenly appeared in front of her clearly.
The face is like a crown of jade, the eyebrows are long and handsome, clear and moist, like the color on the ink painting, which is light and elegant. Intense again. The contours of the facial features are not particularly detailed, the bridge of the nose is high, the eyes are long and narrow, and the tails of the eyes are obliquely upward. The moon-shaped lips are even a little too thick. The shape of the lips is distinct, and it looks very rich and attractive.
Situ Yingsleeve suddenly had a strange thought, if she put her finger on Xie Dongli's plump lips. What would it be like......
With this thought, she turned out to be hot. He took a few steps back and hid his hands behind his back. One hand grasps the other tightly, lest that hand get uncontrolled and go where it shouldn't......
"Ah Si! Hello bold! Ah Shun pounced violently.
Thump!
At some point, a heavy brocade pier appeared in the center of the room, which suddenly tripped Ah Shun to the ground and became a rolling gourd.
Situ Yingsleeve was surprised, took a step back, and said with a smile: "Ah Shun, what are you doing so nervous?" ”
Ah Shun got up from the ground, pointed at Situ Yingsleeve with his finger and said, "I'm nervous? Why don't you ask what you were just doing?! ”
"What did I just do?" Situ Yingsleeve patted Ah Shun's shoulder, and separated the fingers of his empty fingers by the way, "Don't get excited, I'm just looking at the rash on the adult's face." ”
"Come less!" Ah Shun tilted his shoulders and removed Situ Ying's sleeve's hand, "To see that the rash needs to be so close?!" ”
If he hadn't arrived in time, his family would have been belittled by this ill-intentioned woman!
"The lights in the house were too dim to see clearly." Situ Yingsleeve spread her hands, but when she saw the candles lit up again in the room, although she wondered, she still said stiffly: "Believe it or not." Your adult is not a three-year-old child, are you so nervous? Besides, he's a big man, and I'm a little woman. If you want to say that you will suffer, you should worry that I will suffer! ”
"Humph! Still hard-mouthed! I can't make it up! Ah Shun hugged his arms and looked Situ Ying's sleeve up and down, "I can see it clearly anyway......"
Situ Yingsleeve glanced at Ah Shun, and then looked at Xie Dongli, who was silent, and was determined to break the embarrassing atmosphere just now, when he suddenly closed his hands and said with a smile: "Oh, Ah Shun, you care so much about your family, and you refuse to marry your little daughter-in-law, and you don't let others get close to your family, is it possible...... Your sweetheart...... Actually, it's an adult?! ”
As soon as these words came out, the hair on the back of Ah Shun's neck stood up, his whole body trembled with anger, his eyes widened, his fingers trembled like fallen leaves in the wind, and he couldn't say clearly: "You, you, you...... What did you say?! I'm ......"
Even Xie Dongli felt a chill, his face was solemn, and he stared at Situ Ying's sleeve even more gloomily, and the hand behind his back was clenched into a fist, and his grip clicked. ――Someone's itchy skin again, isn't it......
However, Situ Yingsleeve was busy arguing with Ah Shun, and she didn't notice Xie Donglian's strangeness at all, she happily crackled like pouring beans from a bamboo tube and said, "What are you, you, me, me, and me?" Ah Shun, don't be like a cat with its tail stepped on! You have adults in your heart, I know. Don't worry, I won't rob you of adults! - Your Excellency will always be yours! Hahahaha-"
Situ Yingsleeve couldn't help laughing out loud, and before Ah Shun jumped up and hit her, she lifted the curtain and ran out.
"Ah Shun!" Xie Dongli stopped Ah Shun in a fit of rage in time and glanced at him, "Who told you to come in without knocking?" ”
"My lord!" Ah Shun was dumbfounded all of a sudden, obviously that little woman was too arrogant, and the adults actually helped that woman speak?!
"Okay, how old are you, how old is Ah Si. Say a few jokes casually. Are you serious? Xie Dongli glanced at him, "Be surprised again." How dare I entrust you with great things? ”
In one sentence, Ah Shun blew up Mao Shun.
Ah Shun immediately coughed twice and straightened his belt. I swallowed the turbidity.
After thinking about it, he was still a little unwilling to be teased by Situ Yingsleeve, and waved his fist and said, "Hmph! When I go back, I have to talk to Hou Shizi of Changxing about ......! ”
"What are you talking about?" Xie Dongli put the file back in the bookcase and said casually: "You are too idle, aren't you?" Why don't you send you to Northern Qi and live there for ten or eight years? ”
Ah Shun withered suddenly, and said dejectedly: "My lord, I'm just talking casually, don't take it seriously." Who is the Hou Shizi of Changxing? How can people take care of me as a subordinate? ”
"It's good to know." Xie Dongli walked behind the screen to change his clothes. "Hurry up and order someone to come in and carry the cage, and we will get on the ship at night."
"Yes, sir!" Ah Shun still had a lot of business to do, and he didn't bother to care about these things anymore, so he moved the most important bookcase by himself, and brought people in to move other boxes.
Situ Yingsleeve came to the warm pavilion and watched the maid pack up her and Situ Chenlei's cage.
Situ Chenlei rubbed his eyes and said, "Sister, are you going to leave so late?" ”
"Well, my lord is in a hurry. There can be no further delay. She touched Situ Chenlei's head, "Let's go to sleep on the boat." ”
Situ Chenlei nodded and snuggled up to her all the time.
After all the things were moved, Xie Dongli came to the warm pavilion. Said to the sisters and brothers: "Go out and take the car to the dock and change the boat." ”
"Yes, sir." Situ Ying hurriedly took Situ Chenlei to follow.
When they walked to the door of the Long family's mansion. Long Taisheng and Xue Yuniang both rushed out to see them off.
Xue Yuniang was still in confinement, but she insisted on coming to see them off.
She sat in a tightly covered sedan chair. came to Situ Yingsleeve's side and said softly: "This little brother." Thank you for your kindness, if you have a place for our Long family in the future, please don't be polite. ”
Situ Yingsleeve thought that Long Taisheng would be a high school member of the department, and he would be a squire of the military department in the future, and he would be a member of the army rations, so his heart moved, and he planned to make a good relationship with Xie Dongliang, which could be regarded as a small thank you for taking their sister and brother back to Jiangnan, so he arched his hand and said: "Grandma Long is serious. I only hope that in the future, if Uncle Long is in high school, he will be able to serve the country, especially support my family! ”
"Definitely, definitely!" Long Taisheng already knew the whole story from Xue Yuniang, and he was also very grateful to Situ Yingsleeve.
Since "Ah Si" is the subordinate of Lord Xie Dongli of the Qincha, of course, his favor is counted on Xie Donglian's head.
Xie Dongli stood next to the cart, nodded to Long Taisheng, glanced at Situ Yingsleeve, and said, "Get in the car." ”
Situ Yingsleeve hurriedly supported Situ Chenlei to get into the car first, and then climbed up and sat next to his younger brother.
Ah Shun sat in front of the car and sat with the driver who was driving the car.
He was covered with goosebumps from Situ Ying's words just now, and he couldn't sit close to Xie Dongli for the time being.
……
In the Changchun Hall of the Imperial Palace of the Capital of the Eastern Yuan Kingdom, the phoenix candle is also high fever at this time, reflecting the red cicada wing veil in the hall, which looks red and very festive.
Queen Qi Xueyun looked at the newspaper in her hand, her hands were shaking all the time, and she was furious in her heart: "...... How unreasonable! You can miss something like this! ”
Even the ironclad warship was used, and it couldn't kill that Xie Dongli!
Thinking of the fact that there were so many warblers and Yanyan in the palace recently, Qi Xueyun was depressed for a while.
She didn't say it before, and Emperor Yuan Hong never dared to say anything about the concubine.
In the court of the Eastern Yuan Kingdom, no one dared to mention this matter without a long eye.
Unexpectedly, Xie Dongli had just entered the court as an official, so he lifted the lid and sent those women to the palace in her name!
Qi Xueyun threw all the things on the table to the ground at once, and then felt better.
“…… The queen mother, at the request of the lord of Lanjun. Empress Qi's eldest palace maid shouted at the door.
Qi Xueyun straightened her face, got up and walked out of the inner hall, came to the side hall where she saw the guests, and sat down on the high couch, "Xuan." ”
Yuan Yinglan lowered her head and followed the palace maid into the queen's side hall.
"Lan'er has seen the imperial grandmother." She politely curtsy her knees.
"Get up. Lan'er, come here, let the imperial grandmother take a good look. Qi Xueyun beckoned her over.
Yuan Yinglan, the princess's granddaughter, came to the feet of Queen Qi Xueyun, held empty fists in both hands, and gently helped her beat her legs.
Lord Ying Lan is not tall. The figure is unusually plump, with a white and tender round face. Big eyes flickered, intently listening to the queen.
“…… Blue blue. Are you really planning to visit Lord Chincha on behalf of your Imperial Grandfather and Imperial Grandmother? Empress Qi restrained her anger and asked kindly, while putting an arm inlaid with pigeon's bloodstone ruby on Yuan Yinglan's white and tender arm like a round lotus.
"Yes, Lord Chincha, they were ambushed by warships, and it was really scary. If we don't go there in person, we can't make sense of it. Yuan Yinglan said obediently, "Besides, I heard that the thieves on the warship are from the Northern Qi Dynasty, but the Northern Qi will not fight the Eastern Yuan Kingdom." Those thieves must be Northern Qi people in disguise. I don't want Lord Qincha to misunderstand the imperial uncle of Northern Qi......"
"Your imperial uncle is now terminally ill and has no time to take care of himself, where can he have the kung fu to send a warship to fight a small Qinchaguan ship?" The corners of Empress Qi's mouth showed a little ridicule, "I really wronged us Lanlan." ”
"Not aggrieved." Yuan Yinglan blinked, her long eyelashes drooped, and she covered her eyes tightly, "Imperial Grandmother, does Imperial Grandfather have anything to say to Lord Qincha?" ”
"Your imperial grandfather is busy choosing a concubine, where can he take care of his Qincha?" Empress Qi grunted and smiled. A pair of sharp eyes stared at Yuan Yinglan tightly from behind his sleeves, "Lan Lan, you are not young anymore, your relatives." Your mother mentioned it to the palace once yesterday......"
Yuan Yinglan blushed suddenly, buried her head in Empress Qi's skirt, and said in a muffled voice: "...... It's all up to the royal grandmother to decide......"
"This palace is in charge?" Empress Qi deliberately teased her. "This palace will marry you to Lao Wu of the East Gate Takeaway Lantern Festival, and you will also agree?"
"Imperial Grandmother!" Yuan Yinglan's face turned even redder. pushed the queen's leg unruly, "You tease Lan'er again!" ”
"Alright, alright. The imperial grandmother does not tease Lan Lan. Empress Qi said with a smile, "Imperial Grandmother knows Lan Lan's thoughts. Your mother has found you so many young talents, you can't even look at them, who can you look at? ”
Yuan Yinglan sat back on the brocade beside Empress Qi, and said, "Those people are also worthy of being called talents?" There is no need to insult the word talent. ”
"Oh? Lan Lan doesn't look down on those people? As far as this palace knows, among those people, there are both Tanhua and Shizi, you can't look down on them? Empress Qi picked up a freshly peeled lychee and put it in her mouth, squinting her eyes and savoring the taste of the lychee.
Yuan Yinglan smiled, "Actually, Lan'er doesn't want to get married at the moment. ”
"You really don't want to?"
"I really don't want to." Yuan Yinglan shook his head, frowned, and said, "I don't want those people to compete with each other when they look at Lan'er's identity, it's really disgusting." ”
"Hehe, but you were originally the only county lord of the Eastern Yuan Kingdom. We don't have a princess in Dongyuan Kingdom, that is, your status is the highest, so what's the way? Could it be that you don't want to marry a Dongyuan person, but want to marry the prince of Northern Qi or Southern Zheng? Empress Qi nodded and glanced at the palace maid next to her.
The palace maid hurriedly held a handkerchief and stretched it out in front of Queen Qi, so that Queen Qi spit out the lychee core.
"The Prince?" Yuan Yinglan hurriedly shook his head, "I don't want to marry the prince." After a pause, she said with a smile: "I just want to marry the person I like, even if he is a pawn of a peddler, a noble man, in short, as long as he is the person in my heart, I am willing to go to the ends of the earth with him, a spoonful of food, a scoop of drink, and live in a poor alley without changing his will." As long as I can have a couple for the rest of my life, I will be satisfied in this life. ”
"You can't ask for much." Empress Qi glanced at her, "There is such a person, this palace is no longer a queen, and I have already gone with him......"
"The imperial grandmother is peerless, and the imperial grandfather is a pair made in heaven, and the earth is set up with a pair." Yuan Yinglan's eyes were full of admiration and envy, "I don't want to be a fairy couple like the emperor's grandmother and grandfather, I just want that person to value me as a person, not my status as a county lord." ”
"Well, Grandmother remembers." Empress Qi nodded, and was also a little in a trance by Yuan Yinglan's words.
When she was as old as Yuan Yinglan, she was already married to Emperor Yuan Hong as her successor.
And the best years of her life were spent in that big house in the country......
Empress Qi closed her eyes and slowly lay down on the high couch, closing her eyes to recuperate.
Yuan Yinglan retreated lightly.
Tomorrow, she will take the county lord's guard of honor to Jiangnan to visit Lord Qincha.
Thinking of the alienated and indifferent Xie Dongli, Yuan Yinglan frowned.
She doesn't know much about this three-yuan and first-ranked champion, but she knows that he is very talented.
She didn't understand why the imperial grandmother didn't like Xie Dongli, but she didn't want to offend him.
Such a person, she must be firmly enveloped for her eldest brother.
Originally, her eldest brother was the only male heir of the Eastern Yuan Kingdom, and he had been named the emperor's grandson.
I didn't expect the emperor's grandfather to be old, and he actually wanted to take a concubine again.
If she really gave birth to a son in the future, her eldest brother's position would not be so secure......
So this time she hurriedly went down to Jiangnan, firstly, to show goodwill to Xie Donglian, and secondly, to pour cold water on the noisy matter of choosing a concubine in Jiangnan.
She couldn't watch more and more women flood the court......
……
Situ Yingsleeve took Situ Chenlei on the official ship, and was very happy to see that it was renovated inside and out, and said to Situ Chenlei: "I haven't slept well for a few days, so I have to take a good rest today." ”
Situ Chenlei hurriedly hugged her pillow, spread the quilt, patted the bed board again, and said, "Sister sleeps here, I'm next door." ”
"Xiao Lei is so good." Situ Yingsleeve touched his head, "I'll send you over." ”
Situ Chenlei lives in the cabin next to her.
But when she pushed the door between her cabin and Xiao Lei's cabin, she found that the door was locked.
In a hurry, no one could be found to ask for the keys.
She had no choice but to push open the hatch and walk towards his cabin with Situ Chenlei.
"Sleep well, I'm going to take your endorsement test tomorrow morning." Situ Yingsleeve helped Situ Chenlei tuck the quilt, watched him sleep, yawned himself, and walked out of his cabin.
As soon as she came out, she saw Xie Dongli walk past her, walked to the other side of her cabin, and pushed open the door.
Situ Yingsleeve was very surprised and said, "My lord, why do you still live here?" Hasn't the floor slab of the fifth floor attic been repaired yet? ”
