Fate is a very wonderful thing, Li Xuanba came to this world, met Yang Ling, and made up for the regret of losing Su Ling, and in Yang Ling's heart, Li Xuanba happened to occupy a very important position, and the two could be described as a love match.

After Li Xuanba revealed his intentions, the princess courtyard of Guozijian became a place for the two to have a tryst.

Shizuka accompanied the princess a few times, but was shown off, couldn't bear it, hid in the academy, and never appeared again. Yang Yuan turned a blind eye to everything in the courtyard, and still accompanied the princess, making Li Xuanba grit his teeth but helpless.

Of course, even if Yang Yuan is not around, Li Xuanba will not do anything dirty, after all, Yang Ling is just sixteen years old, in Li Xuanba's opinion, she is still a little girl, she can only book it first, but she can't bear to start.

Moreover, Yang Lingnai is a princess, and even if Li Xuanba has a thief's heart, he has no thief's courage.

Therefore, when the two were together, they basically just talked and wrote, and occasionally Li Xuanba came with two lines of poetry, which made Yang Ling's heart move.

Life is dull and fulfilling, Li Xuanba wants to live like this forever, but the reality is cruel.

Shizuka was sent to Luoyang by the Wan family.

At this time, the Lantern Festival had already passed, and the subordinates of the Tang State Mansion, except for the two maids who were about to marry, had already returned, and Yang Guang had given a few more sin slaves, so the Tang State Mansion was not short of people. The purpose of Wan's sending Shizuka over is obvious.

Li Xuanba and the princess have feelings for each other, and the Wan family should know that Li Xuanba has never understood why the Wan family sent Shizuka over, it seems that he deliberately hinders him and the princess from continuing. However, the person had already come, and Li Xuanba had no way to send her back, so he could only send Li Xing to settle her.

Li Xuanba returned to the courtyard, covered with gloomy clouds. The courtyard that was destroyed by the fire had already been renovated, and the layout and decoration were even worse than before, but Li Xuanba didn't have the heart to appreciate it, and went back to the room directly.

During this period of time, the gentle township made Li Xuanba a little sluggish, and Shizuka's arrival not only gave him a headache, but also made him sober up.

When Yang Ling went to Hedong County, Li Xuanba could feel that the Wan family liked Yang Ling very much, and it stands to reason that she should not stop Li Xuanba from being with Yang Ling.

After thinking for a long time, Li Xuanba said to himself: "Mo Fei, what have you noticed? ”

A few years later, the Li family will replace the Yang family and become the master of the world, and Li Xuanba believes that it is impossible for the Li family to complete this without preparation. It's just that he can't figure it out, when did the Li family start to prepare?

After thinking about it in the room for a while, Shizuka knocked on the door and brought hot water with a calm face. Li Xuanba sat down on the bed and put his feet in the basin. The temperature of the water was just right, but Li Xuanba felt a little uncomfortable.

The two were silent in the room, Li Xuanba hesitated for a moment, sighed, and said, "Shizuka, Madame's intention to send you here, I think you should know it in your heart. ”

"The slave understands." Shizuka lowered her head and replied, "But please rest assured, the slave maid came here just to serve the prince wholeheartedly, as for the rest, the slave maid didn't think about it." ”

When Li Xuanba heard this, not only did he not feel relieved, but he was even more uncomfortable. He looked up at Shizuka, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Shizuka did lose some weight, standing calmly on one side, not at all like when she was frightened by Li Xuanba. Her face was a little pale, and her countenance was delicate, and she was extremely endearing.

But Li Xuanba didn't dare to care, for fear that the misunderstanding would be deeper.

"It was really unintentional to let you teach me to read in the room, but I didn't expect such a misunderstanding." Li Xuanba struggled for a moment, but still said: "I apologize deeply for my recklessness. ”

Li Xuanba is the son of the Li Mansion, even if he does something wrong, there is no need to apologize to a subordinate.

But Shizuka and Li Xuanba have been together for a while, and they know that in Li Xuanba's eyes, there is no distinction between dignity and inferiority, so Li Xuanba apologized to her, Shizuka was not surprised, but just a little sad.

Shizuka smiled reluctantly and said, "Childe didn't bully the slave and maid, why should he apologize?" The misunderstanding of others, the slave and maid will not take it to heart. ”

Li Xuanba smiled, took the towel from Shizuka's hand, wiped his feet clean, and after moving, put his feet in the bed.

Shizuka squatted down, took the basin, saluted Li Xuanba, and exited the room.

Although Li Xuanba explained the misunderstanding clearly, it did not eliminate the embarrassment between the two, and neither of them knew what to say, so it was better to separate earlier.

After Shizuka left, Li Xuanba lay on the bed a little helplessly, he had heard of the temperament of ancient women, but he still couldn't understand it, just reading a book alone in a room would make that woman misunderstand, and then have feelings?

If it was useful, Li Xuanba would like to slap himself a few times.

Shizuka went out of the room, quietly wiped her tears, then poured water, cleaned up, and went back to the room. There were not many people in the Tang Guogong Mansion, and the room was more than enough, so Li Xing assigned a separate room to Shizuka.

The room was simply furnished, bed, table, stool, dresser, nothing else. Shizuka carefully took out something from the baggage, which turned out to be pen, ink, paper, and inkstone. Of course, these that Shizuka took out were the most ordinary kind.

After setting aside the four treasures of the study, Shizuka took out two folded pieces of paper from her arms, carefully unfolded them, and spread them on the table.

On those two pieces of paper, there are no words, but a person is drawn on each side, and two pieces of paper are two paintings.

In the first painting, Li Xuanba is curled up, lying on his side on the bed, shivering, lifelike. In the second painting, Li Xuanba closed his eyes and held one hand in his arms, and if he looked closely, there seemed to be tears in the corners of Li Xuanba's eyes.

Looking at those two paintings, Shizuka remembered the scene of that night.

As the night grew colder, Shizuka woke up in a daze, found that she was covered with a silk quilt, and suddenly remembered that she was still in Li Xuanba's room, and hurriedly looked at the bed. I saw Li Xuanba lying on the bed, covered with his coat, trembling.

Shizuka was frightened, and hurriedly hugged the silk quilt and carefully covered Li Xuanba's body. Li Xuanba moved his body and actually held Shizuka's hand in his arms. Shizuka was shy and was about to escape from the room, but found that tears had fallen on Li Xuanba's face, and her heart was inexplicably distressed, so she hugged Li Xuanba for a while.

Before, Shizuka and Li Xuanba were not familiar with each other, and they had only heard that Li Xuanba had a short temper and killed people and drank blood, so when he learned that he was going to teach Li Xuanba to read, he was indeed scared half to death.

However, seeing that Li Xuanba didn't wake himself up in order not to affect his rest, and covered himself with a silk quilt, Shizuka's heart suddenly melted.

Being tempted by someone doesn't necessarily mean that he does something earth-shattering.

Yang Ling was tempted by Li Xuanba because he rode alone and looked at the heroic posture of the world; Shizuka is tempting, but it is only because of Li Xuanba's unintentional gentleness.

In fact, what Li Xuanba did was nothing more than a thousand years later, but in the Sui Dynasty, a rich son was able to make such a move for his subordinates, which is indeed commendable, and it is not surprising that Shizuka is tempting.

There is affection in the painting, there is intention in the painting, Shizuka looked at it for a long time, smiled lonely, and carefully folded the two paintings and put them away.
