Chapter 10 Who's Deeper Than Who's Mind
At dawn the next morning, Zhicheng got up and freshened up. A woman is allowed to marry fifteen and a woman, but she is not married, and twenty is a woman. She's nineteen years old, and she's a big girl.
Looking at the delicate and beautiful pair of phoenix jade hairpins in the makeup, I was sincerely happy, and I could wear it for another year. It was her fifteenth birthday, and Ram Yichen specially ordered someone to build it for her. Six years ago, on the fourth of July, the day Ram Yichen took her in, he not only gave her a name, but also gave her a new life.
Zhicheng divided a head of green silk hanging down to the waist and left and right two small strands hung down the shoulders on the chest, and the rest of the hair was divided into two at the back of the head, with a pink ribbon on the top to form a high ring bun, and the bottom was braided into a three-strand hemp rope braid along the right front shoulder, and the tail of the braid was wrapped with a small pink ribbon and finally tied into a butterfly style. Put on a clean and tidy sweatshirt, middle coat, and then outer clothes, a light green brocade narrow sleeve curved deep coat, embroidered with vine kingfisher as the decoration, a pink ribbon wrapped around the waist, one circle is enough, the rest is tied on the right side of the waist into a butterfly style, with a pair of pink leather legs on the feet, decorated with white flowers. The ears are decorated with pink agate pendants, the slender and soft white wrists are decorated with green jade bracelets, and the waist is hung in the middle of a jade huang, jade ring, jade tube, jade beads, etc., and the red silk silk is connected in a series of exquisite group wear.
She rarely dresses up so brightly, but the good sisters haven't seen each other for many years, and when they meet again, they always have to look good when they get together in a beautiful appearance. Everyone has a love for beauty. Although she always thinks that this is too troublesome and time-consuming.
Sure enough, when she walked out of the room with her makeup neatly dressed, the red sun had risen and covered the earth. And Ram Yichen has been empathetic to prepare breakfast.
Zhicheng walked into the main hall, and before she had time to say hello and apologize to the two people who had been waiting for her for a long time. Cang Ming had already walked over and circled around the little apprentice with great interest, smacking his lips with a rogue look, "Yo, where is this handsome girl?" How old is it? Do you have a married family? ”
"The little woman's name is Zhicheng, the apprentice of Master Cangming, the junior sister of Prince Shangyang, ten and nine years old this year, and she is not yet married." The hands of sincere cooperation are cocked with flower fingers, the face is shy, affectionate, pink and green match, and she looks like a beautiful girl with spring.
“…… Ha ha...... Ha ha...... Yes, yes, if the girl goes out like this, she will definitely confuse a lot of handsome young men......"
Cang Ming was amused by Zhicheng's movements and tone, and he was out of breath and fell into his seat.
"It's really good, this girl is not too young, and she should be looking for a good family. However, "Zhicheng looked at her old and disrespectful master, and immediately felt angry in his heart, his eyes breathed fire, but his mouth was in a leisurely tone. She frowned lightly, worried, "Although the master is still old and strong, but in the end, he is old, and the senior brother is the prince of a country, and he is busy with political affairs." If the apprentice allows someone to do it again, only the master is left and the old man is lonely, the apprentice is really worried~"
Ram Yichen was silent, bowed his head and pursed his lips to hide his smile.
"Hmph~," Cang Ming was unwilling to snort coldly, but he didn't dare to laugh anymore, "You girl, you don't suffer at all......"
"Hah, I don't suffer? Master, you laugh at yourself like this, do you think it's appropriate? Zhicheng was laughed at, and he had no intention of amusing Cang Ming again.
"Who made you lazy and unkempt on weekdays!"
"The master teaches, the apprentice learns!"
"Then why don't you learn well?"
"Do you admit that you didn't do well?"
"You girl......" Cang Ming was speechless, the two quarreled, he never won.
Ram Yichen suppressed his smile, looked left, Zhicheng looked proud, swept right, and Cangming looked proud of disdain. Shaking his head helplessly, the two of them didn't have time to talk properly.
"Cheng'er, it's six o'clock."
"What?" Hearing the time of the ram Yichen, Zhicheng suddenly became anxious, "...... Rotten! Master, brother, I'm really sorry, I won't accompany you two to dine together, I'll go first......"
"What's the hurry? Even if her hour comes, there will still be an hour! Cang Ming poked the food in the bowl, didn't raise his head, and made a nonchalant sound.
"Where there is an hour, half an hour is more than two quarters of an hour. From here to the West Gate, it will take me three quarters of an hour to get there! Zhicheng was anxious, but she didn't let go, she really couldn't say go.
Ram Yichen walked to Zhicheng's side, led her to the seat, and comforted her carefully, "Cheng'er is not in a hurry, I'll go with you after breakfast." ”
"This ......" Zhicheng sat on the seat following Ram Yichen's movements, "Senior brother, are you the prince......
"Isn't that just right? The wind and clouds have risen, Kyushu has changed, and this move can also strengthen the diplomatic relations between the two countries. ”
"What Senior Brother thinks is exactly what he wants!" Although Zhicheng felt that there was something wrong with Ram Yichen's words, she couldn't say anything for the time being, so she could only nod her head in agreement.
After the meal quickly, the two brothers and sisters did not delay for a moment, and immediately took the light work and rushed to the west city gate.
The main feature of Cangming's original stunt - "Dragonfly Touching Water" is that the action is extremely light and fast.
In the past six years, although Cang Ming is nominally the master of Zhicheng, Zhicheng's martial arts are all taught by Ram Yichen. Although Zhicheng is a halfway monk, she usually studies hard, drills and grinds a lot, and always has the guidance of Cang Ming, intentionally or unintentionally. According to Cang Ming, even if this girl is in charge of the three major families and six major sects, she can last for half an hour. Zhicheng, who heard this, naturally rolled his eyes wildly, but he also had to admit that he was a monk halfway, and he was quite proud to reach this level. Even so, compared with others, Cang Ming teased her as if she was playing, and Ram Yichen was also in a leisurely state with her. She always had to be depressed.
“…… Senior brother, it's hearty... Is there something going on this time? On the way, the two of them carried light skills, and sincerely and cowardly asked the question she had been thinking about all night.
Two years ago, the prince and the daughter of Yisong were appointed as princes by the two kings of Yisong, and they learned the strategy of governing the country and securing the people. Song Kexin is kind and simple by nature, reckless and casual, when he first came into contact with the government, he was exhausted by those imperial power tricks and stubborn old ministers, and complained to Zhicheng many times in his letters. Even so, she never saw a trace of escape in the words of Kexin's letters. Now, she actually came to Yijing in person at the critical time of returning to Yunguo to change the king. Although it may be because of political affairs to find Ram Yichen, the two have been communicating without informing her in advance, how can she not be worried and confused?
Ram Yichen glanced at the girl next to him, and couldn't help admiring the delicacy and sensitivity of this girl's mind. He was about to tell her yesterday, but she was able to ask again after a night in her heart, and it seemed that she had already discovered his strangeness. Ram Yichen sighed, seven years have passed, the former little girl has grown into a big girl, and her mind is getting heavier and heavier.
He hesitated to speak, "Xin'er, I'm going to get married......"
"What?" Zhicheng exclaimed, stopped, and froze in place.
Ram Yichen also stopped, sighed in his heart, and slowly explained: "You also know that the two kings of Yisong only have one daughter under their knees, and Guiyun Kingdom had a national covenant with Yisong eight years ago. But so far, the little aunt and the young queen have not come out, so the burden of righteous praise will fall on the heart in the future. So, three years ago, the national covenant was changed, that is, in the year of Xin'er and Lu, he needed to marry any prince of Guiyun. Xin'er was old two years ago, but she was not happy with this marriage, so the two kings kept finding excuses to postpone the marriage, and now they really can't put it off. I received a letter from my aunt that I wanted to come to Yijing alone before I got married. ”
“…… I, I've been exchanging letters with her, how come she never talked about it? ”
"She once thought about renouncing the marriage contract, but Guiyun refused."
“…… Now that Guiyun has changed to a new master, this marriage contract... Even if you don't return it, you can change it! ”
"Update? How do I change my order? As you said, Gui Yunhao is ambitious, and it is by no means easy to match, and if he has his heart, he will get the whole righteous song, how could he give up this great opportunity? ”
Zhicheng's eyes widened in disbelief, and he stepped forward and grabbed Ram Yichen's arms, "Gui Yunhao personally entered the righteous ode?" ”
Ram Yichen shook his head, "How could Guiyun Hao give up Guiyun!" ”
"Then, senior brother, you just said that Kexin can choose any one of the princes to return to the clouds. How could Gui Yunhao possibly let his wolf-like brothers get righteous praise? ”
"His brother has reached the age of tying his hair...... Ram Yichen remembered the news from "Yunwei", Gui Yunsheng, sixteen years old - the seventeenth son of the "Laughing King", Gui Yunhao's younger brother. His mother, Concubine Yao, died of illness when he was five years old, and he and his brother Gui Yunhao were adopted to the palace of Concubine Chen, another concubine of the "Laughing King". When he was seven years old, he was poisoned by accidental ingestion, and although he was treated by a medical officer, he was left with a lifelong dumb disease.
"It's not that there are so many princes ...... 'Laughing King', how can he be sure that Kexin will choose his own brother? Unless......" Zhicheng's frightened eyes widened again, and the palm that grabbed the ram Yichen was very hard. Feeling uncomfortable, Ram Yichen frowned slightly, pulled the pair of white tender and soft wattles that trembled lightly from his arms and held them into his palms.
Ram Yichen held those cold little hands, feeling distressed, looking at the stubborn and serious look of the girl in front of him, but he couldn't tell a lie, so he had to find a more euphemistic statement, "Now, only the men of the Guiyun royal family are Guiyun Hao and his brother!" ”
“…… So...... The ......ruthless "Guiyun Lao" Xiaowang "has many children in his life, except for those who were stillborn and died young, there are twenty-one princesses and forty-three princes who have survived so far, and the last youngest son is only four years old.
…… Can he really do it?
Zhicheng's heart couldn't help but tighten, and he stumbled down. Ram Yichen hurriedly took the frightened girl into his arms and gently comforted her, "My heart is almost here, don't think about it." ”
“…… I...... It's okay, it's just, it's a little shocked......" Zhicheng's teeth chattered, and his soft tongue was a little unsure of how to place it.
After a long time, she finally calmed down, withdrew from the arms of the ram Yichen, and once again carried her light work to the west gate with a low and pretty face. Ram Yichen followed closely, looking at the beautiful figure in front of him who was no longer cheerful just now, and his heart was mixed. The two of them were speechless all the way, and hurried slowly, until it was past the hour of the West City Gate.
When he arrived at the city gate, Zhicheng hurriedly grabbed a soldier guarding the city, "Brother City Guard, may I ask, did you have any righteous praise before...... Hmmm......"
Zhicheng subconsciously used his skills to pull the warm palm that covered his mouth, until the two of them passed a move, Zhicheng turned around and found that only that one person dared to act on himself like this.
Ram Yichen looked at the confusion in Shang Zhicheng's eyes, staring at his eyes and shaking his head gently. He stepped forward and blocked the inquiry of the soldiers defending the city who were about to exit, "We're fine, disturb the two of you!" ”
As he spoke, he took out the standing official certificate and showed it to the two soldiers defending the city, although the soldiers were still a little suspicious of the actions of these two people, but looking at the clear official seal of the Yijing Prefecture on the official certificate, he still didn't care much. Ram Yichen led Zhicheng into the city, turned left and right, and didn't know where to go.
"Xin'er didn't make a big splash this time, and the proof she led on the road is not true." Ram Yichen explained to Zhicheng what he had just done as he walked, Zhicheng's movements just now were too fast, but fortunately he reacted in time.
“…… Senior brother, you ...... Is there something you don't want me to know? Zhicheng bit his lower lip, thought for a long time, and popped out such a sentence. Zhicheng was wronged from the bottom of her heart, she knew that in the eyes of anyone, how much honor and blessing she should have for such two noble people to be commensurate with her as brothers and sisters and sisters from a beggar background.
Yes, she admits that it is a very happy thing to be a "relative" with such a distinguished person, especially since these two people like her so much, take care of her, and care about her. But in her heart, she really treats them as relatives, she also likes them, she wants to take care of them, and she wants to help them, but they are ...... with her
This feeling of being excluded is really uncomfortable!
