Chapter 117: Money Makes Money
"You're not surprised at all?" Xiang Ze asked in surprise.
Yi Sijin sat on the stool, took the teapot, poured hot tea for the empty teacups of the two, and said, "It's just a matter of time or time." ”
"And how long do you think it will take?"
"I just didn't expect it to be so soon." Yi Sijin smiled and said honestly: "She is very smart and knows that it will be sooner or later." ”
"No, I think we're showing a flaw."
"How?"
"She mentioned the incident at the gate of the General's Mansion last time, and I was the only one who saw the process, so the object of her suspicion was naturally me."
"Nope." Yi Sijin shook her head and retorted: "Have you ever thought about why you were asked to meet in such a remote place, and it happened so coincidentally to let you see the whole process of the assassination." ”
"You mean, she's already calculated everything beforehand?" Xiang Ze's eyes widened and his mouth widened, still a little unconvinced, he was actually designed by her.
"Very likely." It's not that Yi Sijin spends the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, but he has been fighting in the court for a long time, and he feels that everyone may have another side that others don't know.
Xiang Ze wrinkled his eyebrows, looked down at the turquoise tea in the teacup, and said, "When did you say she found out that our relationship was not simple?" ”
"I don't know." Yi Sijin shrugged her shoulders indifferently, not wanting to pursue this issue too much.
Xiang Ze was speechless, what does it mean to not know, he is the one who said that people calculated everything, can he say that he doesn't know now?
Yi Sijin glanced at Xiang Ze and found that his face was not good, so he said an easily acceptable answer: "Maybe it's a woman's intuition." ”
Xiang Ze nodded, indicating that he agreed with his statement, and continued to ask, "Then do we still need to avoid it in the future?" ”
"No, you can get along how you want to get along in the future, and you don't have to be restrained." Yi Sijin really wanted to know what kind of person Ye Xintian was, and why there was such a big gap between the front and back.
At that time, at the night banquet, Ye Xintian begged Emperor Chen for marriage in public, Yi Sijin felt that she just wanted Emperor Chen to speak, and he had no chance to refuse, and his good impression of her immediately plummeted; Then jumped off the tower, and I don't know how she knew that she was nearby, shouting to see him, and forcing him to marry her in front of the people of Chenguo.
The two incidents made Yi Sijin's favor for Ye Xintian plummet, her liking caused him a great burden, and she was more like a piece of kraft candy that couldn't be shaken off, appearing in front of him all the time, reminding him of these two things.
Caught raping in bed, he was completely disappointed in her. Originally, Bai Weiwei made an appointment to meet him, but before Bai Weiwei arrived, he took a sip of tea, and when he woke up, Ye Xintian straddled him, and before he could say anything, Ye Tianquan broke in with Emperor Chen.
In order to block the mouths of Youyou, Emperor Chen had no choice but to issue an order asking him to marry Ye Xintian, but he was about to get married, so she said that she didn't want to marry, he felt that this was a trick she deliberately gave him in order to earn back face, and he had no choice but to marry.
On the wedding night, the groom did not spend the night in the bridal room, he thought that such a thing would make her lose her mind and go back to the general's mansion, so that he could take the opportunity to divorce his wife, but she didn't cry or make trouble, and he couldn't do anything about her.
The three beauties were given by the ministers of the DPRK and China, and he didn't agree to mention them several times, but that day he only mentioned them slightly, and he agreed, and deliberately threw people to her to deal with, thinking that she would make a lot of trouble, but I didn't expect that there was still nothing.
Xiang Ze saw Yi Sijin holding the tea, sometimes frowning, sometimes the corners of his mouth raised, and felt very strange, so he asked: "What do you think, it's rare to see a smile on your face." ”
"Is there one?" Yi Sijin came back to her senses, raised her hand and touched her cheek, and then said, "It's nothing." ”
"In the past, our brothers didn't have any secrets, and there was nothing we couldn't tell each other." Xiang Ze said this deliberately.
Yi Sijin shook her head and said, "Don't think about it. ”
"Can I not think about it too much, you can come up with the matter of stealing the dragon and turning the phoenix to help Ye Xintian, you may not have noticed it yourself, and your attitude towards her has changed a lot." Xiang Ze reminded.
"It's our deal." When Yi Sijin said this, he seemed to be reminding himself of what was between him and Ye Xintian, and what was the relationship between the two.
Xiang Ze put his hand on his shoulder and said, "Brother, sometimes it's not a good thing to deceive yourself. ”
"Really?" Yi Sijin raised her eyebrows and looked at Xiang Ze and asked, "Then tell me, who did you take her to see this morning?" ”
"How do you know......" Xiang Ze was halfway through his words, only to see that Yi Sijin's eyes went from doubt to certainty, and he realized that he had been deceived, so he sighed and said, "I didn't see anyone." ”
"You lied."
"I didn't."
"Did you take her to my father?"
"Why do you feel that?"
"Guess."
"So you also know that he doesn't want the mistress of King Jin's Mansion to be Ye Xintian, but you are insisting on it now."
"Then why do you think I'm doing this test?" Yi Sijin looked at him and asked with a smile.
Xiang Ze instantly understood the meaning of his words, but he was still not sure and asked, "Are you for her?" ”
Why? Aren't they what everyone thinks is incompatible? He also doesn't like to see Ye Xintian, doesn't he?
Anyone can guess what Ye Tianquan married his eldest daughter to Yi Sijin and his younger daughter to the crown prince for, can't Yi Sijin see it?
Yi Sijin pursed her lips, did not deny it, and did not give an answer, but a clear-eyed person could see it at a glance.
★★★★★★
In the afternoon, Ye Xintian squatted in the flower bed, weeding the flowers, in order not to affect the growth of the plants, she dug up the grass by hand, and the gossip of Chunke and Qingling was in her ears.
"Qingling, guess who is most likely to win the first place in the literary exam in the end?" Chunke felt that he had seen through everything, so he asked Qingling to see if his thoughts were right.
Qingling held her chin with one hand, frowned, thought about it seriously, and replied, "I think it will be a white girl." ”
"Why?"
"Because she is the most serious, I have heard other people say that she even remarks her sleep and sleeps."
"Do you believe what others say?" Chunke was not angry, and Qingling said with a glance.
Qingling felt that the current scene was a little weird, the slave maid was sitting on a stool knocking melon seeds, eating snacks, and saying bad things about the master's family, while the master of Mingyue Pavilion was squatting in the flowers, carefully weeding.
To be honest, there is no courtyard in the palace that is in this state, and Qingling was not used to it at first.
"Tell me, who do you think it will be?" Qingling asked.
Chunke thought about it on the surface, but in fact, he had already figured out who it was, so he said, "I think it's Chen Meiren." ”
Qingling looked puzzled, in addition to the name of the Chen beauty, she couldn't remember what it looked like, she had the least status in the mansion, I heard that even the slave could show her face, she felt that it couldn't be Chen Meiren.
"Why is she your choice?" Qingling thought it was strange, but she couldn't say it.
"Chen Meiren is a well-known talented woman, and she never leaves her books all the time, not only because of this assessment, but also because she usually reads different types of books." Chunke said with a smile on his face.
"I think we should buy what our master won." Qingling looked at Ye Xintian in the flower garden and felt that this should be the case.
Chunke was not happy anymore, and mocked: "It seems that you bought the master and won." ”
"What are you talking about?" Ye Xintian walked up to them at some point, holding weeds in one hand and bamboo chips with mud in the other.
Chunke supported her forehead, such a master, if she became the hostess, what kind of shelf would she have, and it would be strange if the people in the palace didn't bully her.
Qingling got up, picked up the wet cloth on the table, handed it to Ye Xintian, and explained: "That's the case, there is a gambling house on Central Street, and the gambling game of this hostess assessment has been opened to see who is the biggest winner in the end." ”
"What are the maximum odds?" Ye Xintian's eyes lit up after hearing this.
Chunke sighed, looked at her heartless master, and said, "It's you, the princess, ten times the odds." ”
"Huh? Do I have such a high win rate? Ye Xintian felt very strange, how did she become the biggest winner, she should be the least optimistic. Because she didn't even want to participate in it herself.
Qingling looked at Chunke's forehead, so she had to answer and say: "No, princess, you are the one with the least chance of winning, cough, to put it in layman's terms, no one buys the princess, you win, I think you won't be the first." ”
Ye Xintian nodded a little understanding, and he couldn't say that he was happy or sad in his heart, because the original persona was there, unlearned, unscrupulous, unscrupulous, and capricious, it was strange that such a person had someone to buy and win.
"It's the so-called upset, right? Is it a dark horse? Ye Xintian asked.
Chunke and Qingling nodded at the same time, and then saw Ye Xintian show a sinister smile, hurriedly returned to the room, and slammed the door shut.
When she came out again, Ye Xintian held a brocade box in her hand, she solemnly handed it to Chunke, and said, "Go buy it and I win, this is all my belongings, remember, you must be anonymous." ”
Chunke's eyes widened, and he suddenly felt that what he had in his hand was not money, but a hot potato, so he hurriedly threw it to Qingling and said, "I can't do this, I'll leave it to you." ”
Qingling made a bitter face and wanted to hand it back, but Chunke had already wrapped her arms around her chest and hid her hands under her armpits, so she had to look at Ye Xintian and ask, "Princess, isn't it?" Playing so big? ”
Ye Xintian glanced at Qingling, and wanted to say that you don't understand, although she doesn't have the heroine's script in her hand, but she has Yi Sijin's golden words, now that she already knows the result, she will definitely fight hard.
This kind of good thing that money can make money, how could she miss it.
"Go and come back quickly, remember to get the ticket stub, otherwise there will be trouble in claiming the prize." Ye Xintian urged, and at the same time pushed Qingling's shoulder, only to push Qingling out of the palace.
Qingling's help to Chunke was ineffective, so she had to bite the bullet.
Ye Xintian hadn't recovered from the joy of winning money, but an uninvited guest appeared at the door of Mingyue Pavilion.
