Chapter 146: A Famous Lady Slaps Her Face with a White Lotus (9)
The Xu family had already seen that the emperor was not waiting for them, and they also knew that the emperor was going to entrap the emperor's uncle Zhu Chengze, and without waiting for Zhu Chengze's proposal, Xu Xuande took the initiative to make friends with Zhu Chengze, saying that Xu Yuyan often followed her mother into the palace to play games with Zhu Chengze when she was a child, and she was also a little guess.
Zhu Chengze took the opportunity to propose to ride a horse in the spring, and everyone nodded in agreement.
The next day, four young men and women, dressed in riding costumes, went straight to the outskirts.
Although Su Yi can ride a horse, the feeling of walking in the suburbs of the capital in early spring is still very different from that of a group of ancient people.
It's not all bad to go back to ancient times, Su Yi thought, at least this pure natural air is not something that modern times can imagine.
The group rode their horses for a walk, and soon came to a stream with the fragrance of birds and flowers, turned over and dismounted, and started a bonfire and picnic with great interest.
The accompanying slaves led their horses into the mountains and forests, and let them enjoy the grass and graze to their heart's content.
……
With servants waiting by his side, the picnic was naturally not hard at all.
Smoke rises, and fat fish coated with oil and spices on both sides stand on the fire, and sizzling sounds continue to emerge from the surface.
The four of them sat down around the campfire and chatted about the horseback ride.
"The prince's horse chasing the wind is really powerful, it takes a few steps casually, but other horses have to spread their hooves to catch up!"
"yes, yes! Although my father's stable also has good horses, compared to chasing the wind, it is absolutely inferior! ”
The Li family brothers and sisters looked at Zhu Chengze's sweaty BMW with envy.
Zhu Chengze smiled and said, "If you like it, when Chasing the Wind has a cub, I will give you one." ”
"How can that be done!"
The two siblings looked flattered.
Su Yi also said: "This gift is too expensive, I'm afraid I can't afford it." ”
"The happiness you have given me is more precious," Zhu Chengze said, "and I truly love the beauty of our past more than the West Domain." ”
“……”
Su Yi was embarrassed, so she could only deliberately change the topic: "Brother Zhenwen, which one is better, do you say that the prince's chasing wind or the brother-in-law's chasing shadow?" ”
"Shadow chasing?"
Zhu Chengze was surprised.
"Chasing Shadow is my father's war horse, very powerful!"
Li Zhenwen said heartlessly: "It would be nice if the prince could lend me Chasing Wind for a few days." ”
"What, you want to have a competition with Chasing Wind and Chasing Shadow?"
Zhu Chengze was full of interest.
Li Zhenwen shook his head: "No." ”
"Then what are you going to do with chasing the wind?" Su Yi asked.
Li Zhenwen: "My father gave Chasing Shadow to Xinlian, I want to ride Chasing Wind and Xinlian to have a competition!" ”
"Poof!"
Zhu Chengze laughed out loud and said: "Li Changhe is known for loving horses, and he has been fighting on the battlefield for a long time, how can he give his war horse to others?" ”
"But she's a heart lotus!"
Li Zhenwen said: "Xinlian's mother is the county lord of Qinghe, and she is also named the county lord of Qinglian, the emperor treats her so differently, and it is normal for her father to treat her differently from others!" ”
"Oh?"
Zhu Chengze smiled ambiguously.
Li Xiangya also sneered and said: "My father treats Xinlian better than my mother, what's so strange about giving her a shadow!" ”
As soon as the words fell, the other three were stunned.
Su Yi had long suspected that Li Xiangya was aware of the truth, and finally stopped doubting it.
Zhu Chengze has been in the conspiracy since he was a child, and he can hear the taste in an instant.
Only Li Zhenwen reprimanded Li Xiangya with a blank face: "Xiangya! Why are you so ignorant! Father treats Xinlian well, that's because the emperor's order is difficult! I believe that the most important place in my father's heart must still be reserved for my mother! ”
"When his mother died, he didn't look sad at all!"
Li Xiangya was enraged and glared at Li Zhenwen: "Your sister Xinlian didn't even attend her mother's funeral!" ”
"She has a lot of filial piety, why did she attend our mother's funeral! Xiangya, you are the one who has read the books of the sages! How can I believe in the nonsense of evil luck and life like the ignorant village woman! Or are you jealous that your father treats Xinlian better than you! You're jealous! ”
"I'm jealous! I'm jealous! I'm mindful! But it is also true that after Xinlian came to our house, our family was not peaceful all day! ”
Li Xiangya angrily scolded her brother: "Mother's misstep is an accident!" Sister Yuyan's fainting is another accident! Since she came! How many accidents have happened in our family! ”
"Right...... Sorry ......"
Seeing that his sister was angry, Li Zhenwen hurriedly apologized: "I didn't choose what to say for a while, I didn't mean to make you unhappy!" ”
Seeing this, Su Yi coughed and said, "Brother Zhenwen, this matter is indeed wrong with you, but Sister Xiangya's attitude is also wrong, how can you be so noisy in front of the prince, without any respect and courtesy?" ”
Hearing this, the Li family brothers and sisters asked for guilt together: "The prince forgives the sin!" ”
Zhu Chengze smiled: "It's okay. ”
Then he asked Su Yi: "Listen to what they mean, the fainting of your cave room that day is actually related to the Qinglian County Lord?" ”
"That's what is rumored outside."
Su Yi knew that Zhu Chengze had a plan, so he retreated and said: "I only remember being led around by my mother-in-law to bow and salute all day, and when I was sent into the cave room, I was dizzy and dizzy, and my brain was also dizzy, and then it seemed that someone came, and that person seemed to have spoken to me, but I don't remember clearly......"
"The wedding ceremony in my dynasty is indeed too cumbersome."
Zhu Chengze shook his fan and sighed.
Then, he took the initiative to divert the topic and said, "Zhenwen, don't you want me to chase the wind?" I'll give you a chance now. ”
"What a chance!"
"In addition to chasing the wind, there are more than a dozen horses here. I'll ride a horse with you and have a competition! If you win, Chasing the Wind will lend you a month, how about it? ”
"Good!"
Li Zhenwen was overjoyed.
The two of them chose their horses, got on their horses, and whipped away.
The two quickly disappeared from view, and Su Yi said to Li Xiangya, "Let's walk along the river." ”
Li Xiangya nodded, walked by the river with Su Yi, and said coldly: "Sister Yuyan, why don't you allow me to tell Zhenwen the truth?" ”
"When did you find out?" Su Yi asked.
Li Xiangya said: "I have already guessed three points, plus the conversation between you and your father, and today's food box of Ai Xinlian...... Sister Yuyan! What have we done wrong to deserve such retribution! Our whole family treated her sincerely, but she seduced my father, killed my mother, and made my stupid brother die for him! ”
"You haven't done anything wrong, and your aunt hasn't done anything wrong, it's Ai Xinlian who is too hypocritical and despicable!"
Su Yi patted Li Xiangya's back and said, "If my aunt has a spirit in the sky, she will definitely be uncomfortable when she sees you in such pain and discomfort now." ”
"I know...... I shouldn't be carried away by hatred, but when I think about what Axin Lin did to our family, I ...... I hate it! I hate her...... I...... I hate so much! ”
Li Xiangya wept.
When she was only sixteen years old, she was betrayed by her best friend and most respected father, and because of these two people, she lost her favorite mother!
