Volume 1: The beginning is to enter the Ning Xiao Gate, the first time to meet the crown prince Fu Yuying Chapter 21: Linchi

I reluctantly got out of bed, put on a coat and went to get Yaoqin.

As soon as I put the piano on the shelf, I heard the prince ask, "Do you know Linchi?" ”

I looked at him with some confusion, not understanding how he knew. After hesitating for a moment, I said slowly: "I know, he is the one who used to teach calligraphy to my sister-in-law." ”

"Have you ever crossed paths with him?"

I really suspect that the prince has checked all my past and can guess everything. I sighed and replied: "It's a bit of an intersection, in the past when he was teaching my sister the piano, he met me by chance, and he had to ask Song Guogong to marry me to him, although Song Guogong hated me, but he didn't understand that if he chose a first-order grass man like him as his son-in-law, he couldn't save face, so he didn't agree." ”

The prince was thoughtful and asked me no more. His eyes fell on the candle flame, not leaving an inch, not knowing what he was thinking. Seeing that he was thinking, I didn't bother him, got up and walked to Yaoqin to practice alone.

The prince must have been interrupted by the sound of my piano, so he turned his head to watch me play, and began to teach me, pointing at me from time to time, but never asked anything about Linchi. It was not until it was time to rest that the prince stopped teaching, and I was already tired today, and I was already sleepy at that time, so before he could leave, I had already taken off my coat and shrunk into the bed.

The prince did not blame, stood up and looked at me on the bed from a distance, and said, "From tomorrow onwards, you will practice martial arts and chess in the morning, calligraphy and painting in the afternoon, and piano in the evening." ”

I was so sleepy that I listened in a daze, but I just snorted in response to him, and the prince sighed helplessly and left the room.

In the early morning of the second day, the secret guards outside had already begun training, but I was really tired and slept too deep yesterday, I didn't hear a sound, it was later that my mother-in-law came in and woke me up, at that time Yi Xuan had already arrived at the door, I hurriedly freshened up, and put on some makeup, because I wanted to practice martial arts, so I put my hair up, put on a tights, and went out after cleaning up.

Yi Xuan didn't give me a good look, but I can understand it, after all, he has been waiting for me for a long time, and how dare I have an opinion about him, I don't have to let him hold a grudge, and if he corrects me again during training, this will be more than worth the loss.

So I smiled and was about to say something, but Yi Xuan had already turned around and left. I put my hot face on my cold buttocks, although I was a little dissatisfied in my heart, but I could only hold it in my heart, after all, the training was important, and I still had to keep up with him quickly.

The training venue is in the other courtyard, although this place is not as big as the courtyard where I live, but this place only gives me one person to train, but it is also extraordinarily spacious.

Halfway through the training, Yi Xuan noticed that I was a little physically exhausted, so he let me rest for a while. My mother-in-law had prepared tea for us in advance, and I sat on a stone bench drinking tea, and my eyes inadvertently glanced at a more peculiar room, next to the prince's residence, with a plaque on it that was no longer in shape, but the door was still as clean as new. I have been to this courtyard last time when the prince fainted, but I have not carefully observed this place, and today I had a rest, only to find that there was a seal on the door of this room.

I've been inferior since birth, so I've always understood that people can't be too curious, but I don't know why, but at the moment I just want to know what's in this room.

Suddenly I heard Yi Xuan sneer, I turned my head to look at him, he should have seen my thoughts, and said to me: "About that room, you'd better put away your curiosity, if you really go in, Fu Yuying will really kill you." ”

I rolled my eyes at him, disbelieving myself. Last time Yi Xuan said that Fu Yuying was the most taboo about people under his hands taking bribes, I always believed it to be true, and then I remembered that after buying a chessboard for Yi Xuan that time, I spent the rest of the money, and I never returned it to him after that, so scared that I hurriedly returned the money to him at that time, but I didn't expect Fu Yuying to care about these things at all.

Yi Xuan said coldly: "I know what you're thinking, but this time I didn't lie to you, that house is the mourning hall of Concubine Shu, Fu Yuying stipulates that except for Concubine Shu's death day every year, it is not allowed to be opened at other times, in order to prevent someone from breaking by mistake, so a seal was posted." ”

I bowed my head and pondered, Concubine Shu was the mother of the crown prince, and she seemed to have died when the prince was very young. Concubine Shu was not favored by the emperor when she was alive, and I rarely heard of her deeds, only knowing that before she got married, she was the closest sister to the right side.

I remembered the ruthlessness of the prince before, and suddenly understood that perhaps he was a poor man without support, just like me.

"When is the death day of the lady concubine?"

Yi Xuan looked at me puzzled and asked, "Do you have to go in and have a look?" Seeing that I didn't answer, he said again: "Even if it really comes to that day, Fu Yuying will not let you in, Concubine Shu's mourning hall, even if it is the most basic sprinkling, Fu Yuying does it himself, he never lets anyone step in half a step." ”

Of course, I wasn't that curious, "Just a casual question, it's almost time to rest, let's continue training." ”

I don't know why, I actually want to know about Fu Yuying's past, not the prince's past, but Fu Yuying's past.

Just after noon, Linchi came to teach me calligraphy, he came in and closed the door casually, and then did not start teaching immediately, but asked me why I did things for Fu Yuying, I naturally did not plan to say this to him, but asked him: "Why did you participate in that calligraphy competition." ”

Linchi is low-key, even if his calligraphy attainments are very deep, few people in the world know, when Song Guogong accidentally learned that he was such a person, he personally invited him several times and he was unwilling to go, although I don't know why he was willing to do it in the end, but the process must not be simple. So with his attitude towards life, it is impossible to participate in that game for fame and fortune, if he is willing to participate, there must be another hidden reason.

He didn't answer my words, but said to himself: "Second Miss, please be sure to leave here with me." ”

I held back my eyebrows, puzzled, and remembered that he was not surprised to see me by the prince's side before, and he never asked me why I stayed by the prince's side.

I looked at him warily and asked, "Why are you leaving?" ”

Linchi stood up, walked to my side, put his face to my ear, and said cautiously: "This place is not suitable for a long time, please leave with me first, and I will explain later." ”

Seeing him like this, I didn't want to ask more, I turned my head to look at him, pursed my lips and smiled: "Mr. Lin, first of all, I am no longer the second lady of the Song Mansion, you shouldn't call me that, and secondly, you dare to take me away... Aren't you afraid that your son will take your life after an order? ”

He ignored me and still admonished me: "Second Miss, listen to me, if you forcibly want to stay with the prince, you will only have endless troubles in the future." ”

Yi Xuan has said this more than once, why is Linchi saying the same now...

I couldn't help but be curious about Linchi's identity, and although I had doubts in my heart, I knew that I would definitely not be able to ask him anything. So I rejected him outright, and asked him to quickly get to the point, teach me calligraphy skills, Linchi advised me a few times, and when I was still indifferent, I had to give up.
