Chapter 1 Choices
Since I was a child, I have wanted to marry Su Ziyu, this is the dream of Princess Nanzhi, the only princess of the royal family of the Celestial Empire, and since I saw him for the first time at the age of ten, I can no longer tolerate others in my eyes.
This Namggyi princess has been suffering from frailty since birth, but fortunately she was rescued by a Buddhist master, took her with her, traveled the world, taught her carefully, and returned her to the royal family at the age of ten. On the day she entered Beijing, she was happy, granted amnesty to the world, and rewarded the Quartet, so even if people hadn't seen her, they were quite happy with her, after all, they had inherited her holy grace.
When she was ten years old, Su Ziyu was fifteen, and she was already a talented person in the capital, but unfortunately her parents died, and as for the reason, it seems to have a lot to do with the royal family. is gentle and gentle to people, but he is indifferent and distant, which is always incomprehensible, which is the unanimous opinion of the outside world on him. The story begins when she was 14 years old.
In the princess's mansion in the western suburbs, the princess was staring at the book on the table and competing with it, sitting on the couch with her feet crossed, her hands propped up at her sides, her brows furrowed, her mouth slightly pursed, and she looked bitter and hateful.
The personal maid next to her saw her like this, and couldn't help but worry about her, thinking that this was the fourth homework assigned by the emperor for her, and she had to memorize the whole policy, alas, our princess was just a child who had not yet reached the end of her life, and sighed silently for her.
When the maid was silently worried about her master, she saw Princess Namzhi smile like she had come back to life, grabbed the book on the table, and ran out without wearing shoes.
Fortunately, the maid came back to her senses, and hurriedly shouted: "Shoes, princess, your shoes are not worn", but it seemed to be useless, and when she caught up, she only saw the beautiful back of the princess coming out of the wall.
Several people slipped through their shoes, looked at each other, looked at the fence a few meters high, and sighed silently. One of them said, "Let's go to the gate of King Yu's Mansion and wait", as if he had long been used to it. Yes, the wall that the princess climbed over is the wall that leads to the palace of King Yu.
The emperor was very fond of this only princess and his favorite concubine, and responded to his requests. It is a proper daughter control, so when Princess Nanzhi said that she didn't want to live in the palace and felt that it was too restrictive, she immediately set up a princess's mansion outside the palace, all according to her wishes, and as a result, the princess's mansion, which was originally set in the eastern suburbs, was changed to the northern suburbs and finally settled in the western suburbs, just next to the Yuwang Mansion, only separated by a wall. After hearing this, the emperor could only think stupidly as if he had been put on a show by this girl.
Princess Namggyi was holding a book, barefoot, and as soon as she jumped into the courtyard, she was discovered. The subordinate who was sweeping the floor stopped working, saluted solemnly and said, "You are here, the master is playing chess with King Qi in the pavilion."
Nanzhi waved his hand, straightened his skirt, straightened his hair again, and threw the book in his hand to the subordinate, "Give it back to me when I leave." After speaking, he walked to the study, and turned the door of the side courtyard in a few steps.
"Who is that nobleman just now, she looks so beautiful", one of them came to the side of Xiao Guizi, who had just taken a book for the princess, and asked.
Xiao Guizi turned around, "This is Princess Nanzhi held by the emperor on the tip of his heart, don't bump into the nobles when you newcomers"
"Then why doesn't this Nanzhi princess go through the main gate and climb over the wall?"
"Last time, the master also asked the princess this question, and the princess said that she had to report it at the main gate, which was troublesome, and said that it would be more convenient to open a side door directly in this courtyard next time, but the master disagreed, and was afraid that the princess would be regarded as an assassin if she climbed over the wall again, so he sent me here to answer the princess."
Everyone was silent after hearing this, how could it be a bit like cheating.
Yu Wangfu is also a hundred years of architecture, before the heyday of Yu Wangfu, the momentum is close to the royal family, and then Yu Wangfu exists in name only, people declined, only the early king of Yu Su Ziyu and his sister Su Ziye are left in the house, the two brothers and sisters are interdependent, living in a simple place, the elder brother has the title of talent, the younger sister has the appearance of flowers, but was not bullied, and later befriended with the princess Nanzhi, since no one dares to despise them.
Nanzhi boasted that she had traveled south and north since she was a child, and her martial arts were also outstanding among her master and disciples, but there was only one thing that made her crazy, that is, she couldn't figure out the direction. When he and his master went to Sumeru Mountain to collect medicine, they were lost for a day and a night, and then the master was afraid that she would get lost again, so he gave her a lot of ways to know the way, but it was useless for her. She originally knew everything about Yuwangfu, but she found that she seemed to be lost.
Nanzhi looked at the unfamiliar scene in front of him, blinked his eyes suspiciously, and wondered if he had climbed over the wrong wall, and was left in the palace by his father for three days for assessment, how could the world have changed. Nanzhi looked around and no one came, it was worthy of the deserted Yuwang Mansion, such a big house, he couldn't even see anyone, so he simply continued to walk forward.
Passed through a long corridor, turned left and passed a round arch, only to see a large piece of lotus pond, there is a delicate pavilion in the middle of the lotus pond, the curtains fly lightly all around, the lotus fragrance is wanton, there are two people playing chess in the pavilion, it is the king of Qi and the king of Yu.
The two of them sat at the table, driving ice cubes next to them to cool off, melting and bubbling with cold air, both of them were dressed in white but had different temperaments, at this time, the king of Qi was down, but he didn't put down the chess pieces for a long time, his brows were furrowed, on the other hand, Su Ziyu was indifferent.
Nanzhi finally found these two people, and shouted away from afar, "Brother Ziyu", and when he saw the two of them turn around, he didn't wait to walk over, and flew directly to the pavilion with light skills. Ziyu got up and took the person into his arms, Nanzhi in his arms raised his head, and saw the handsome face with a faint smile in front of him, and suddenly there was no depression.
"Brother Ziyu, I miss you so much, my father wants to check the homework assigned to me last time, and left me in the palace for three days, and this time he also assigned me a new strategy, which annoyed me to death," After speaking, he didn't forget to pinch his brother's face.
Su Ziyu put down the person in his arms, and suddenly became two heads shorter than him, couldn't help but rub her head, and said with a smile: "Your father is also good for you, you have to be obedient, you know?"
Brother Ziyu's voice was always so gentle and powerful, but Nan Zhi didn't want to listen to anything, so he said, "Is my brother playing chess with King Qi, then continue to play, I'll study and study next to me" After speaking, he sat aside obediently.
King Qi pretended to be sad and clutched his chest and said, "You finally remembered that there is another person next to you, I am very hurt to be ignored by you." ”
Nanzhi didn't think about it and said: "You've seen it so many times, why is the little heart still so fragile, and it hurts at every turn." ”
Su Ziyu sat down close to Nanzhi, straightened Nanzhi's skirt with his hand, and suddenly saw Nanzhi's feet leaking outside, he was stunned for a moment, and his ears suddenly turned red, but he still covered it with his skirt quietly, when nothing happened. King Qi looked at the two of them quite interestingly. The maid next to her stepped forward to put the pieces back on the chessboard. Nanzhi sat quietly on the sidelines, watching the two of them slowly fill the chessboard with chess pieces.
"By the way, brother, why when I first came in, the landscape outside seemed to be different, and I almost got lost."
"The house has only been renovated, after all, it is an old house, and several partial courtyards are leaking, so I simply repaired all the places that should be repaired."
Halfway down, I heard the same shouting in the distance as Nanzhi.
"Nanzhi, my little Nanzhi." I saw a woman running in the distance, her skin was as white as snow, her eyebrows were affectionate, if you ignored her not very elegant running posture, she would probably be a fairy. This person is Su Ziyu's sister Su Ziye.
When Nanzhi saw it, he suddenly stood up, ran over in three steps and two steps, "Cotyledon, my little leaf", picked the person up, and turned around twice by the way, and the laughter of the two of them like silver bells surrounded the sky above the lotus pond.
After a kiss and hug, Cotyledona took Nanzhi's hand, "Nanzhi, you haven't come to play with me for three days, I'm almost suffocated, why don't you go with me to play, go to the last time to listen to the play, and last time-hmm-"
Nanzhi covered her mouth, turned around and saw the questioning eyes of the two, and said, "Haha, what are you talking about, when have we ever been to that kind of place, haven't we always been discussing such elegant things as painting and playing the piano, haha." What's that, my brothers are playing chess slowly, and Ye Zi and I are going to catch up, hahaha. After saying that, he pulled the cotyledons and ran.
The two people next to the chessboard watched the two of them walk away with a dull expression, King Qi came back to his senses, and saw that Ziyu was still looking at the direction they left, but there was sadness in his eyes that couldn't be hidden, and said faintly: "Why is it always me who is ignored, as if Ziye didn't see me just now." What else is good to play in this chess, but not to play. After saying that, he simply lay on the mat with the back of his head behind his hand.
Ziyu turned his eyes to look at him, "I see that you are upset, and when you see my sister, your heart is hooked." ”
King Qi closed his eyes, and did not deny his words, and said: "You are not the same, everyone is gone, and you are still looking at it." ”
Su Ziyu lowered his head and frowned slightly, "Yes, it seems to have been messed up a long time ago." After saying that, he smiled self-deprecatingly.
King Qi still didn't open his eyes, "Don't put yourself in it when the time comes, your aunt won't let you go." ”
Su Ziyu pressed his temples in annoyance,
King Qi continued, "You know, I will support you no matter what you do, but you, if you are trapped, I will not hesitate to get rid of her. Without the slightest hesitation, Su Ziyu knew that he was not joking.
"I should have killed her two years ago, but you said you didn't like her, you were just using him, but if you look at your current appearance, you probably forgot what you were carrying." King Qi suddenly sat up, leaned out his front half of his body and approached Ziyu, "Aunt said, if you can't do it, she will let me make a move." If you want her to be good, you know what to do. With that, he stood up and walked out.
"You want to keep her safe." Su Ziyu suddenly spoke, and King Qi stopped in place without looking back or making a sound. "You are afraid that if she is by my side, my mother will send someone to kill her, and you know that she will not leave me on her own initiative, so you came to persuade me to push her away." ,
"You did a great job of concealing it, and if it weren't for my mother's order to kill her, you wouldn't have warned me like this. Li worried. "When Su Ziyu called him by name and surname, he was really angry." You didn't ask for any favor for anyone. You say I'm not like I used to be, but what about yourself? ”
"You know there's going to come a day, and you've got to make a choice." After saying this, he left, and Su Ziyu also sat there quietly, and he didn't change his posture for two hours.
