Shu'er smiled and looked at the little brother Dongfang who was staring at Wang Jian's greedy eyes, and felt that he seemed to look a little like Lin Ying a few years ago, with extremely clear eyes, but he hid a lot of bad ideas under his clear eyes. Inexplicably cordial, inexplicably pleasing.

Shu'er didn't think about it, handed the Huaiwang Sword to Dongfang Zhuo, and said, "Here you go." ”

Dongfang was still holding the sword steadily, so he only heard Lin Ying say: "Little Dongfang, what's the fun of dancing with a knife and playing with a sword?" Come here, Brother Lin will play the piano for you. Lin Ying was secretly displeased, thinking to herself, the sword I gave to Sister Shu'er, even the old lady of the Empress Dowager of the Song Kingdom would not want to take it, you stinky boy who has not dried up, what qualifications do you have to play with?

Dongfang Chou turned his head to glance at Lin Ying, and immediately noticed a trace of displeasure in the eyes of this lord brother, so he put down his sword, ran to Lin Ying's side, and said, "Brother Lin, Chou'er has always wanted to learn to play the lyre, but although my father can play, he always has little time to teach me well." Brother Lin, if you have time occasionally, can you teach me? ”

Lin Ying still hated this stinky boy, but she was made out of temper by Dongfang's sudden humble begging. He muffled, "You've found the right person." Little East, why do you want to learn the piano? ”

Dongfang blinked his eyes and replied frankly: "No, why! I want to learn everything. I want to be a big man who is both civil and military, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, rich in learning, admired and envied! ”

Lin Ying was stunned when she heard this.

Shu'er couldn't help but laugh. This little Dongfang is actually a small person with big ambitions! Even Xiao Ying's weird temper can't help him.

King Sheng smiled and instructed the girl to fetch the piano used by the princess, and said, "Xiaoying, your mother's piano skills, I don't know how much you have learned, and my father is just checking it tonight." ”

The girl handed over the piano, which was the piano of her mother that Lin Ying had played when she practiced in the palace when she was a child. He glanced at King Sheng with a smile, then went to debug the piano that had not been played in eleven years, and said while tuning: "Dad, in fact, what you should ask is, how much is my mother's piano skills?" ”

King Sheng heard Lin Ying finally call himself "Father" anymore, and this "Dad" blurted out, but it crossed too much. Lin Ying played the piano freely, King Sheng loved music since he was a child, and knew five kinds of musical instruments, at this time he heard that his son's seven-stringed piano skills were so outstanding, I don't know how many times better than himself and Su Qin, I couldn't help but be ecstatic, and while I was drinking, I wiped away the tears of joy from the corners of my eyes.

After a few songs, Lin Ying looked at King Sheng proudly, but King Sheng was so happy that he couldn't speak, and even choked up with praise in his chest. Qin'er, the son you taught, is so good!

Lin Ying said: "Dad, my mother has been tirelessly teaching me to play the piano since I was a child, do you know why? ”

King Sheng guessed: "Because your mother likes to play the piano?" ”

Lin Ying shook her head and smiled: "It's because my mother knows that my father likes to hear her play the piano." When I was in Chen Guo, there was a year when my mother had a menacing cold, although it was not a big problem later, but at that time she said to me that if she would never see her father again in the second half of her life, let me practice the piano well, and play it to my father in the future, so that my father will not forget her. ”

King Sheng's heart fluttered. Qin'er, that year the river was prosperous, the catkins were flying, and I enjoyed the piano through the window. I know you in this life, how can I forget?

Lin Ying said: "Dad, in fact, over the years, my mother's thoughts and resentments about you have been seen in my eyes. Although she knew that you sent us to Chen Guo for the sake of our safety, and she was afraid that we would be involved in the disaster of the Seven Kings, at first her mother could understand it, but in recent years, her mother has often been worried. It's been eleven years, will my father have a new love in Chu again? Although I believe in my father, my mother often chatters, and I can't help but guess. Until today, I saw my father, saw such a palace that was unattended due to years of war and shortage of money, and saw that my father was always alone, I knew that my mother was too worried. Dad, this time we were in a hurry, and there was no guide for the long way, so we couldn't bring my mother back with us. Moreover, I still have a selfish intention, that is, to explore the palace for my mother first, to see if my father has a new love, and whether he will not take us back because he has a new love. If that's the case, I'd rather my mother didn't know. so as not to let down what she has missed for her father for so many years. ”

King Sheng couldn't help but burst into tears, and choked up: "No matter what it falls apart, what is the rebellion of the Seven Kings!" For my father, I will send someone to Chen Guo tomorrow to pick up your mother back! ”

Lin Ying said: "Dad, since my mother is so important in my father's heart, it is better to send anyone than to send my son to pick it up in person." Sister Shu'er and I went back to Chenguo and came back soon. "Dad, you talked to me for a long time about leading troops to fight and reopening Zhaohuang, but I'm really afraid, once you get involved, you will never be free. Dad, can you give me a few more months? Let me and Sister Shu'er go back to Chen Country and pick up my mother, and I will die and complete the plan of unifying Chu Realm with you! Dad, give me a few more months, I don't want to be separated from Sister Shu'er yet......

King Sheng shook his head, his voice was extremely serious: "Xiao Ying, since you have come back, you have to fight the last few battles of unifying Chu with your father!" In the past, my father was not sure of winning, and what he was most worried about was the safety of your mother and son. But now, the victory is in hand, but my father is beginning to worry, you have not experienced the iron and blood of leading troops to fight, and you have not experienced the strategy of Wang Tu's hegemony, in the future, when your father enters Zhaohuang Palace, how can you sit firmly on the throne of the prince? After waiting for a hundred years for your father, how can you be a king of Chu who is admired by all the people? Therefore, from tomorrow onwards, you will train with me and discuss politics with me, and you will not delay for a moment. ”

Shu'er saw that Lin Ying was embarrassed, so she said: "His Royal Highness King Sheng, Aunt Su also has a nurturing grace for Shu'er, if His Royal Highness can trust me, it is better to leave the matter of taking the princess back to Chu to me to do." I was just going to Zichuan and returning to Chen from Shudi, and I couldn't be more familiar with it. ”

Lin Ying sighed. Sister Shu'er, in fact, you don't have to take everything on yourself. According to this, my aunt, my mother, Aunt Yan, and Aunt Song all have the grace of nurturing you, and you have four more "mothers" at once, will they all care about filial piety in the future? How can you enjoy the temperament of taking everything on yourself like this? So Lin Ying stopped: "Sister Shu'er, take my mother back to Chu, sooner rather than later, after all, she has been waiting for so many years." Now that you still have a covenant with the King of Shu to send a sword, you will definitely have to delay for a long time. Let my father send someone else! ”

Shu'er can't understand why Lin Ying has always said this recently, it doesn't count, forget it, let her change into women's clothes for a while, and let her change back into men's clothes for a while, upside down, so troublesome! So he cried and laughed and said: "Xiaoying, I said that others are unreliable, and it is you who asked me to pick up your mother back to Chu, and now I say that I will go to the appointment of Zichuan, the road is delayed, and you are the one who wants to send someone else." ”

Lin Ying didn't know how to refute, after all, it was indeed herself who kept repeatedly, so she had to sigh muffled.

Dongfang saw that Lin Ying and Shu'er looked displeased, so he said loudly: "Brother Lin was able to go from Chu State to Chen State when he was five years old, and I am almost twelve years old now, so it is better for me to bring someone to pick up the princess back!" But he glanced at Huai Wang Jian again, and added: "The premise is that Sister Yan will take me to Shu Kingdom with me and let me enjoy this sword all the way." When the time comes, she will go to the Zichuan appointment of the King of Shu, and I will take someone to Chen Guofanjing to pick up the princess, which can be said to be without delay!
