Chapter 17: The Palace Picks Up
After a night of anxiety in Yuwang's mansion, the couple never summoned Zhu Yi again.
On the afternoon of the second day, Zuo Chu arrived at the house to pick up people. When she was taken to the main hall, among the crowd, the first thing she saw was Zuo Qi.
Zuo Chu and Mu Shenyu, who were sitting in the main hall, were both unsmiling. There was an unclear sense of ridicule between the mutual greetings.
The two of them are together, and they can literally freeze the unbearable heat into a cold winter. Zhu Yi didn't dare to come forward to salute for a while. Mu Shenyu snorted contemptuously because of her faux pas.
Zuo Chu raised the corners of his lips slightly when he looked at her, with apologies in his eyes. His eyes made her sour for a while, and she almost wanted to pounce.
Chulin ran up to her and asked if she was okay. Zhu Yi whispered "brother", and he took her into his arms and comforted her repeatedly. After that, she finally stepped forward and saluted Mu Shenyu with some shrunkenness, and glanced at Zuo Zhu a few times with some grievances.
Mu Shenyu saw her twisting like this, with a hint of ridicule, and said: "Mr. Chu really has the ability to provoke the hearts of women all over the world. ”
Zuo Chu lowered his eyes and was silent. Zhu Yi was afraid that no one would answer, and the uncertain prince was annoyed, so he pretended to be clever and answered: "The prince is the dragon and phoenix, the pride of the sky, what woman in the world does not admire you?" ”
It's okay not to say this, as soon as the words came out, but when she saw the Yu Dynasty, she glared: "Then you tell me, this king and Mr. Tsu, who do you admire?" ”
Zhu Yi was stunned.
Before Qiu Shui, he hurriedly asked for sin: "Lord Wang, the sister is small, and her speech is not elegant, you are magnanimous, please don't take it seriously." Mu Shenyu stared and didn't speak, and Zhu Yi didn't dare to say more.
The silent scene was finally broken by Mu Shenyu, his face changed for a while, and he smiled like a spring breeze: "Mr. Chu came all the way over, why don't you go to the lake pavilion with this king to sit and talk about the old days?" ”
Zhu Yi lowered his head dumbly: It turns out that this prince and Zuo Chu are old acquaintances?
Zuo Chu chuckled and refused: "The prince is kind to Zuo, but Zuo is here to pick up the female guests in the village, so it is inconvenient to bother more." ”
I don't think this old friendship is deep......
"It's rare for Yuwangfu to invite Mr. Chu to come over, but it doesn't seem to be a good time." Mu Shenyu smiled and regretted, and then said: "It's okay, this king just wants to see the ability of Gu people, and it is reckless for this king to invite people over." Since this little girl is your guest, it is inconvenient to stay in this king's mansion, so please don't send it. ”
Zuo Chu bowed slightly and then turned around and left, and Zhu Yi hurriedly followed. Zuo Qi walked fast, his clothes rolled up, and the fresh breath blew straight to the Zhu Yi behind him. Thinking that he came to take him back this time, he couldn't help but be happy for a while. In a hurry, she looked back at Mu Shenyu, who looked at Zuo Zhu's back without blinking, and then said something that shocked her:
"Since the girl has answered the king, the king is waiting for the girl's good news. When the secret Gu is cultivated, it will be paid tribute in time. ”
Zuo Chu stopped, he didn't look back, Zhu Yi chased after him, and said hurriedly: "Mr. Chu, I didn't promise him......"
"I believe in the girl, go back."
Suddenly, my heart settled down.
He said he believed her...... Whether it's casual or true, it's a great honor to be so affirmed by someone you like.
On the way back, Zhu Yi was in a particularly good mood, enjoying the scenery all the way and admiring endlessly. Lu Mai's standard disgusted look: "It's worthy of leaving the west, I haven't seen it before." She was excited, and she also had the kung fu to tease her mouth, and smiled back to him: "Then you haven't seen the scene of Xili, haven't you seen it." ”
Lu Mai scoffed: "As for your barren land where no grass grows, no one lives, am I willing to go?" Chu Lin on the side was not happy, with a grass in his mouth, and shot back at him: "The majestic momentum of the sunset over the long river and the vastness of the snowfield in winter, have you ever seen a thin southerner?" ”
Lu Mai really hadn't seen it, and he was blocked and speechless for a while. Zhu Yi immediately gave Chu Lin a thumbs up.
The active first Lin proposed a horse race, but Zhu Yi did not agree, but he took the first place to clamp the horse's belly and rushed out. Chu Lin turned his head and said to Qiu Shui with great disgust: "Your sister, you have grown up from a young lady. Qiu Shui kicked him in the belly.
Isn't it your sister yet?
Zhu Yi, who had already run away, waved his horsewhip and galloped wildly against the golden sunset. The flying shirts, long hair, and Qingyue's cheerful laughter all show the girl's best years. Chu Lin looked at it and asked the person next to him, "When did she grow so big?" ”
Qiu Shui looked at the little figure, laughed indulgently, and finally whipped the newcomer horse fiercely, the horse was in pain, and ran forward with a roar.
Hearing the sound of horses' hooves catching up behind him, Zhu Yi turned around to see Chu Lin. The young man's figure was heroic, and the wind blew, puffing up his purple clothes, which was very eye-catching......
When it was dark, the two of them decided to stop the race.
Zuo Chu got out of the carriage and rested for a while.
Enjoying the bright moon emitting a warm white soft light, Zhu Yi lay on the soft grass, feeling that everything was incredible. Qiu Shui handed him a piece of dry food and asked her to tell him what happened in Yuwang's Mansion.
Chu Lin pulled the horse to drink water and came back, and sat next to Qiu Shui. Zhu Yi lay down for a while, got up and threw away the dandelion in his hand, and walked straight to Zuo Qi, who was sitting alone.
The man turned his head when he heard the movement. The moonlight swept through his shirt in the breeze, the smoke ribbon fluttered, and the ink hair danced silently against the moonlight. The sky was already dark, and the stars were getting brighter and brighter. When the moon is in the sky, the grass is soft, and it is really a quiet and peaceful night.
But the most beautiful thing in the scene at that time was Zuo Chu's figure.
He stepped forward and sat down beside him.
Zuo Chu turned his gaze back and looked into the distance.
One of the two people must break the silence, and obviously, Zuo Chu is by no means the one who takes the initiative, so Zhu Yi spoke: "Thank you, Mr. Qi, for coming to pick me up." Zuo Chu looked at her, afraid that she would misunderstand and be amorous, and explained: "You are a female guest in the village, and something happened in the village." Zuo is already very reluctant not to go, as long as Miss Zhu doesn't complain. ”
Zhu Yi looked at him seriously, carefully tracing his outline under the moonlight, and suddenly said: "My name is Zhu Yi, can you not call me 'Zhu Girl'?" ”
Zuo Chu looked ahead quietly, "In Zuo's eyes, you are a girl, and it is inconvenient to call her by her name." ”
She leaned forward and moved to him, "Your character is 'Tingyu', right?" For my sake, let me call you your word? Zhu Yi smiled flatteringly: "I especially want to call you 'Tingyu', I especially want to." ”
Zuo Chu frowned, the little girl was really close, and the faint fragrance had been swept by the wind, "It's better to call my name appropriate." He moved to the side a little.
Zhu Yi didn't care about his actions, and retorted directly: "It's too rude to call you 'Zuo Chu'." Call you '柸' and numb, don't you say? Although Tingyu is a word, but no one calls it, what if one day you forget your own words? I'm screaming and I can remind you. ”
Zuo Chu was silent, and she said to herself: "So, it's a pity that such a nice word is not called by people." I'll just call it off. Nor does it conflict with others. ”
The man still didn't say anything, and subconsciously didn't want to talk to the difficult little girl.
And Zhu Yi was "acquiesced" by others.
Therefore, at that time, Zhu Yi was so thoughtful that he couldn't delicately explore the feelings of others, and the young people were bold, to put it bluntly, they were cheeky. In short, since then, she opened and closed her mouth and just called Zuo Chu "Tingyu".
At first, anyone who heard this title was surprised. Later, I got used to listening to her talk, and no one cast weird eyes anymore.
Two months later, Zuo Chu went out of the city to visit.
