Chapter 12: The Unbearable Dream and the Resentment of the King and Sun (2)
"Actually, I also admitted that I was punished for copying books, but the master actually didn't let me go to the Ganyuan Conference, which is really unreasonable!" She picked up a piece of red bean cake and took a bite fiercely, "I can see that Master just dislikes me as a woman!" From childhood to adulthood, this is not allowed or that, and it reminds me not to be impetuous, competitive and aggressive. Xiao Qi, do you think I'm impetuous? Is it competitive? ”
She sat up, leaned closer to Luo Yao, and stared at him, "You have to tell the truth, don't lie to me." ”
Even that noble man like Zhilan Yushu can betray himself behind his back, dare to ask the sky, who else in this world can be trusted?
Luo Yao lowered her eyes slightly, reached out and picked up a few snacks in front of Qingling's placket, and put them on the porcelain plate in her hand, "Senior sister, why bother yourself?" If Master had disliked you as a woman, he would not have taken you as an apprentice back then. As for personality," he raised his eyes to look at Qing Ling, his expression seemed to be smiling, "I think it's very good for senior sister to be like this." ”
Qing Ling put the saucer on the couch, "This is good?" What do you mean...... I really am as Master said! ”
Luo Yao replied very tactfully, "There are many kinds of competitiveness. Some are forced to rise up because of circumstances, and some are born because of inferiority in their hearts. If the senior sister is content with the status quo, she will naturally not be competitive. ”
Qing Ling held his chin with his hand and thought.
To say that it is forced by circumstances is not enough.
If you want to talk about inferiority, perhaps, there is a little bit of ......
The cultivation is low and the ability is not enough, so I always want to win over the senior brothers to prove my strength?
As a woman and an orphan, that's why she always wants to show something and not let her master and her classmates look down on you?
She tilted her head to look at Luo Yao.
This kid is obviously his junior brother, but when he speaks, he has a set of truths, which really greatly reduces his prestige as a senior sister!
Qing Ling sighed and leaned back on the futon stupidly, "Last time I heard you say, you used to run away from home before. Why don't I learn from you, and go out on my own......"
Luo Yao glanced at the porcelain plate that was swept away by Qing Ling, and hooked the corners of his mouth, "If Senior Sister runs away from home, I'm afraid she won't last two days and will come back." ”
Regarding the matter of running away from home, Qing Ling actually gave serious consideration to it.
Although the master is strict, if he really disappears, he should still be worried, right? If he left for a long time, maybe he could still arouse his guilt, no longer pursue his past mistakes, and promise to let him participate in the Ganyuan Conference?
If you don't go too far, for example, go to the northern country of Lieyang to take a look and see what you know, it's also good. Lieyang is a country inhabited by barbarians in the north, presumably Li Zhong and they have never been there, if they go for a ride and come back to tell about the pride of the desert and the scenery of the north, they can also have a long face......
As the Gan Yuan Conference approached, Chongwu began to get busy, and even near the usually quiet Tang Ting, there were some sounds of people walking and carrying things from time to time.
Qing Ling's heart also began to become more and more restless as if it was being scratched by a kitten.
I heard from the senior brother who came to visit her that several guests have recently stayed in Yuefeng, including people from the Chaoyan family and people from the southern vassal states. Most of the people who participated in the competition and watched the ceremony would arrive in Chongwu three days before the race.
Chenyue was the only one among the disciples who had seen the last grand event, and talking about the lively scenes made Qing Ling feel more and more depressed.
Chenyue comforted her and said, "Master probably just wants to punish you, and before the celebration, I will definitely let you out." ”
But Qing Ling's intuition told her that this time the master grounded himself, not just to punish him.
There must be some other reason for this......
Sure enough, until there were only two days left before the Ganyuan Conference, Mo Qian still did not say anything to lift Qingling's grounding.
Qing Ling couldn't sit still.
Master is really cold-faced and cold-hearted!
She threw away the pen and inkstone, wrapped the snacks sent by the senior brother in oiled paper, turned out a few more clothes, and wrapped a burden in her hands and feet.
No way.
If you leave like this, if you are discovered, you will be caught if you can't run far, not only will you not be able to arouse Master's thoughts and guilt, but you will be punished twice!
Not......
She thought about it for a while and decided to ask her junior brother to help her make a replacement puppet puppet in order to hide her whereabouts.
Among Chongwu, the one who is the best at puppetry, except for the second senior brother Zhenglang, is the seventh senior brother Luo Yao. Although Qing Ling usually gets along well with the second senior brother, she feels that it seems more appropriate to find a junior brother to do this kind of adulterous crime......
Qing Ling put down his burden, turned over the Qilin jade card left for him by the fourth senior brother, set up a ban to cover his whereabouts, and went out to Luo Yao's residence.
By this time the sky was already darkening, and a full moon hung in the deep blue sky, shining softly.
There was no trace of anyone on the corridor, presumably most of the attendants on the Huaqing Palace side were transferred to Yuefeng to receive the guests.
Luo Yao's new residence is located on the west side of Tangting, because it has been vacant for many years, the courtyard wall is crawling with vines, and the courtyard is also overgrown, messy and barren. But Luo Yao liked this place very much, and did not deliberately remove the vines on the wall, but used spiritual power to give birth to many roses, looking from a distance, like a waterfall pouring flower rain, exuding a rich and sweet floral fragrance.
The grass and trees in the courtyard were simply trimmed, and various strange flowers and flowers were planted, and a few tall maple trees were obtained from nowhere, standing in the yard as if they were in the yard, which suddenly added a bit of artistic conception to the haze mountain forest.
Qing Ling pushed open the door and walked a few steps inward along the flower path, and faintly heard a voice coming from someone.
Under a maple tree near the house, three people sat around on the ground.
Luo Yao's hosta was tied up, his robe was slow, and he was dressed like a rich man, holding a buttoned silver wine jug in his hand, and he was pouring wine into the wine glass on the four plans. On his right side, sat Emperor Chaoyan Ji Mujing, dressed very exquisitely, with a winged jade luan with beads and red gold in her hair and shaking a hairpin, shining in the candlelight. Next to him, there was Prince Muhan, who was raising his glass to his lips, laughing softly.
On the maple tree above the heads of the three people, jagged crystal lamps fell, and the flickering candles were held in the lotus-shaped lamps, like starry nights.
Xiao Qi, when did he become so familiar with the children of the royal family? Actually sitting in the same case and drinking and talking?
The green spirit cat leaned closer, hid behind a gold and silver honeysuckle, and looked out.
Luo Yao poured the wine, handed one cup to Mu Jing, picked up another glass himself, took a sip of wine, and said with a light smile: "It turns out that the prince and the emperor are actually twins." ”
Mu Han said: "Although this is the case, after the queen mother gave birth to Ajing, she fell into a coma due to physical weakness, and my father had to order the imperial doctor to suspend childbirth, and sent the queen mother to Fuyang's Xiaoyue Pool to recuperate for more than three years before giving birth to me." Therefore, although I am a twin brother and sister, I am three years younger than Ajing. ”
Ah Jing smiled coquettishly, "What, you have been in the womb of the queen mother for a few more years, can you still suffer a loss?" ”
Her eyes rolled and swept towards Luo Yao, "What about you?" Do you have siblings at home? ”
Luo Yao lowered his eyes and took a sip of wine, "I have a younger sister." ”
Mu Han pondered and said, "I remember hearing you say that you are from Zizhou. But I can't remember, there's a family surnamed Luo over there......"
Luo Yao said with a smile: "It's just a small family, Your Highness has never heard of it." The ancestors of the family moved from Luoshui to Zizhou, and in the Luoshui area, this surname is very common. ”
Mu Han nodded, "Heroes don't ask where they come from." ”
After getting along for nearly two months, Mu Han was very impressed by Luo Yao's intelligence and demeanor, and he had already started to solicit him. Throughout Chongwu, the disciples are all highly capable, but as the talent that the future prince wants to woo, it can't just be a strong spiritual power, the wisdom of vertical and horizontal strategy, and the astuteness of the mind are indispensable.
He took the opportunity to raise his glass and said with a smile: "To be honest, when I first heard that your surname was Luo, my first reaction turned out to be the Luo family of Jiuqiu. Oh, come, a glass of wine to you, it's a reparation. ”
Luo Yao generously raised the wine glass in his hand and drank with Mu Han. "Your Highness is serious. In the Eastern Continent, when the surname Luo is mentioned, who wouldn't think of the Jiuqiu Luo clan? ”
Mu Han put down his wine glass, "I once heard my father mention that although the Jiuqiu Luo clan has wolf and beast blood, it is not a pure demon clan. Calculated carefully, it is still a little related to the ancient Heavenly Emperor. The national teacher who can only blame them is too arrogant, and has led the demon clan to live in a corner for nearly a thousand years, and has repeatedly caused wars and chaos, in a vain attempt to subvert the order of the races in the Eastern Continent. Now as long as the Jiuqiu Luo clan is mentioned, who can not think of the demon clan and the war? ”
Luo Yao lowered his head and played with the empty cup in his hand, a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, "The difference between the families has been around for a long time, and the relationship between the major clans is intertwined, how can it be so easy to shake the whole body?" Your Highness is right, this person is indeed too arrogant. ”
