Chapter 4: Beauty? Brother?
At this moment, the boy also raised his head to look at Wen Ling, and Wen Ling ran over happily.
"Brother Beauty, you play so good tunes, why are you so good! If I had half of you, my mother wouldn't keep talking about me. ”
The words spit out were full of envy and grievance. A pair of big talking eyes blinked, looked east and west, saw the neatly placed pastries on the stone table next to him, stared at those pastries and subconsciously swallowed his saliva.
Some people's voices seem to have the ability to deceive people, and Qi Hongxin doesn't know why he asked that sentence. Maybe young people don't know "why did they know each other in the first place when they knew it was so hurtful".
"Well, how about I teach you to play the piano in the future? By the way, how did you find here? ”
"Really? But the gentlemen all said that Ling'er was stupid, they all said that Ling'er was a piece of rotten wood, and my mother talked to my aunt in front, and I went out to play with my sister. It was too big for us to get lost, and then we saw a small door here, so we came in to have a look, but we didn't expect to hear the sound of the piano as soon as we came in, and we just followed the sound of the piano. ”
Hearing Wen Ling say "rotten wood", the smile on the corner of Qi Hongxin's mouth became more and more obvious. Wen Ling finally understood how Mr. once said, "A beautiful woman laughs at the city, and a smile turns all beings upside down".
"It's rotten wood, can't it be carved, right?"
Wen Ling scratched his head embarrassedly, "Well, it's all wood, it's almost the same anyway." ”
Qin Ling saw that Wen Ling kept talking but didn't stop it, she probably guessed the identity of the boy, but her mother said that men like to be polite and polite, so she had to ask when Wen Ling stopped talking, "This son, I am Qin Ling, the daughter of the imperial history, I don't know if you can ask your maid to take me to the flower hall to find my mother" Qi Hongxin nodded and agreed, and waved his hand to call the little maid over.
After Qin Ling left, Wen Ling began to introduce himself, "My name is Wen Ling, my father is the prime minister of the dynasty, I live next door to your house, we will be neighbors in the future, what is your name, brother beauty, you play the piano is really good."
These, without waiting for Qi Hongxin to answer, pointed to the pastries placed on the tray next to him. Can I eat it. It looks delicious. The boy nodded, a slight smile on his lips.
See here. Wen Ling hurriedly picked up the pastry with both hands, and said with a smile after eating, "It's delicious, I've never eaten such a delicious pastry."
The boy's pleasant voice sounded again, "This is specially made by the master who is the best at making pastries in the imperial dining room," Wen Ling cheered up when he heard the imperial dining room, and then said, "Brother Beauty, why are you here alone," because his mouth was full, and his words were not clear,
"I followed my mother here to see my aunt's little brother, and people outside said that this is called Wenju wine. But what exactly is warm wine? ”
Before he could say a few words, most of the pastries on the table were wiped out, "Brother Beauty, can you continue to play the piano for me, my mother always says that I can't play the piano, so every time I play the piano, the maid hides away."
My eldest brother also said that I would my husband to death if I played the piano. Mr. also said, by the way, it is the sentence you just said that rotten wood cannot be carved" Hearing this, the corner of Qi Hongxin's mouth could no longer hide the smile on his face. Wen Ling was stunned, "Brother Beauty, you look better when you smile, you have to smile more in the future." ”
So when the little maid who sent Qin Bian out came back here. I was taken aback by this eerie atmosphere. Although his own prince has always been kind to people, he is extremely indifferent inside.
Outsiders all spread that His Royal Highness King Wen was gentle, and only those who served him knew that His Royal Highness King Wen rarely spoke in private, and rarely got along with others because of physical reasons, let alone who he could smile at sincerely, even if anyone in the palace had never seen him a few times.
I saw His Royal Highness caressing the piano while gently looking at the little girl sleeping on the stone table. The little girl was still leaning her head on the table little by little, and she was still holding the half-eaten pastry in her hand.
Sensing that the subordinate was approaching, the boy restrained the smile on the corner of his mouth. whispered, "She is asleep, you go and inform Mrs. Wen, just say that Miss Wen is too tired to fall asleep." ”
Wait for Mrs. Wen and the concubine to arrive with her subordinates. Wen Ling was already asleep, and the boy next to him was drinking tea in an elegant manner. "Attend His Royal Highness King Wen".
"Mrs. Wen doesn't have to be polite"
"Ling'er is young and ignorant, and she is usually used to being casual at home, if there is anything offended, I hope His Royal Highness King Wen will forgive me."
"She fell asleep. Mrs. Wen had better take her back earlier," the boy said these words without saying anything.
Waiting for Mrs. Wen to walk away with the sleeping Wen Ling in her arms, the concubine looked at her son thoughtfully. Usually this son doesn't look cold. In fact, people who don't like it have always been allowed to step into their own place, and today not only let Wen Ling eat a snack, but also played the piano to let her sleep here, it is impossible to say that there is no surprise.
The concubine asked gently, "Xin'er, what do you think of Ling'er, Ling'er is the daughter of Prime Minister Wen's family." The boy said lightly, "She's very cute," he said, and the corners of his mouth involuntarily curled slightly, and the corners of his mouth were incredible.
"Why do you say this, can you get such an evaluation from Xin'er, what did she do?" I heard the boy say, "Maybe she thinks I'm as beautiful as Mrs. Wen?" After listening to this description, the concubine Niangniang covered her mouth with a handkerchief and chuckled.
"Ling'er is not as conformist as other ladies, lively and cute, and has a smart atmosphere, since you think she is very cute. In the future, let her come to Wenwangfu to play more, you are tired today, go back to your room to rest. ”
"It's the mother's concubine, and the son-in-law retires."
When Qi Hongxin walked away, Ye Zixi looked at his son's thin back and was a little distracted. Her son should have been a wanton and free temperament, and he should be as freshly dressed and angry as other young men, playing poems with the young lady of the family, and occasionally getting together with three or five friends, but now, it is ......
The grandmother who was following Ye Zixi saw that she was blaming herself again, so she said, "Guifei Niangniang, Your Highness has always been cold and indifferent to everyone, but there is a slight difference with Miss Wen, and I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing" Ye Guifei, who was still with a trace of worry just now, heard this, and her eyes were even darker.
"Don't mention these things in front of me in the future, I just want him to live his life in peace, and there is still no movement in that matter,"
"My subordinates have tried their best to find it, but they haven't found anything for the time being."
"That's it, this kind of thing can't be rushed, let's go back to the palace when it's late, and I said another word while walking, don't stop Miss Wen when she comes over in the future" The maid and the housekeeper echoed "Yes, send the concubine Niangniang."
