At the time of the scorching heat, the three of them found a pavilion to escape the heat and sat down. Xia Zhixue sat behind Xia Zhiqiu's right, forced to watch the two of them come and go. ”

"Third sister, is this boring?" Ouyang Huaiyu naturally noticed Xia Zhixue's absent-mindedness.

From the moment he sat down, the man didn't even bother to look at the chessboard, because her sister never looked back at her.

For a while, he swerved left and looked at the lotus flowers in the pond, and for a while stared at Hua Cheng who was standing on the side, not knowing what he was thinking.

had no choice but to speak up and tore her gaze off Hua Cheng: "I see that you are not interested."

Xia Zhiqiu covered her mouth and snickered, she knew that this straw bag was a person who couldn't sit still, and she had never seen her interest in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting since she was a child. The father found a master, and the female workers were scolded out of the study by her, and the father slapped her in the face angrily: "It's not a thing." Since then, the finest pen, ink, paper, and inkstone have all been attributed to her bookcase.

To say that Xia Zhixue's life is not in vain, I saw her jade hand lightly pointed: "Sister, this step is a little hurried." If it is ......" said and picked up the white child, placed it next to it without hesitation, and tapped his index finger: "Put it in this place, the prince has great ability, and he can't get out of the palm of his sister's hand."

In her last life, she was playful and didn't like to read, so she suffered a lot, and Xia Zhiqiu only instilled in her: a woman's lack of talent is virtue, and she disdains to read. Now it is not what it used to be, in the days when she was in the Hou Mansion, she looked at the collection of books, female workers, piano, chess, calligraphy and paintings. They are all daughters of the Hou Mansion, so naturally they can't be too bad.

Xia Zhiqiu only thought that she could see this fool's joke, how could she still have this hand? Turning around and looking at Xia Zhixue, her eyes changed, could it be that her previous stupidity was all pretended?

Ouyang Huaiyu was not stingy with rewards: "Yes, this king really underestimates the third sister."

Xia Zhixue said gently: "The prince praises me falsely, I just followed my father for a long time, and asked my father for the chess games that his old man had collected for many days, and I was blind."

When will Daddy show her the chess games that he has treasured for many years? She begged her father several times, but she was sent away, hmph, she understood that the people in the house only regarded her as a concubine, and they all came because of her father's partiality.

"Zhiqiu, what are you thinking? Is there something wrong with what this king said? The corners of Ouyang Huaiyu's mouth hooked slightly, and his eyes changed slightly as he watched Xia Zhiqiu.

Where did Xia Zhiqiu dare to attack the prince, so he had to hide his expression and smile reluctantly: "The third sister has been smart since she was a child, and she has to be mentioned by her father, she is much better than me, and Zhiqiu is ashamed of herself."

As she spoke, her expression suddenly changed to be aggrieved, as if everyone in the Hou Mansion was treating her harshly.

Xia Zhixue looked at her like this, and felt disgusted in her heart: "Sister, where is this, my father has always been the most fair and upright, and there is no difference between you and me, the palms and backs of your hands are full of meat, do you blame your father for this?" Or do you blame our Hou Mansion for not taking you, the eldest lady, in their eyes? ”

When did this idiot become so sharp-toothed? Xia Zhiqiu pinched the chess pieces and said carefully: "My sister said that I was laughing, I just laughed with the prince, my sister should not take it to heart, and I can't afford to go back to my father to sue me."

The father can't listen to others say that he is not good, and the slut in front of him is the best at telling right and wrong, and his father has always preferred her, if she is stabbed away, so as not to make their father and daughter have a dislike for nothing.

Xia Zhixue didn't know what she was thinking, and immediately responded: "Sister don't worry, sister won't."

Ouyang Huaiyu looked at the two sisters who looked like each other, and he didn't debunk them, so he was bored in the palace all day long, and it was good to watch a few more plays when he had nothing to do.

"Lord Wang, is this a gloating?" Xia Zhixue's eyes slightly turned to the man with a "good show" face, and continued: "Lord Wang, is this using our two sisters to tease boring people?"

She was like a mirror in her heart, this Ouyang Huaiyu was the most scoundrel, he noticed that he was unconscious, so he led Xia Zhiqiu to see himself ugly, and then asked her to point out her sister's mistakes, and made Xia Zhiqiu jealous of her, so he sat aside drinking tea and watching the play, so unhappy.

What a clever girl, Ouyang Huaiyu smiled with her eyebrows: "The third sister has wronged this king."

Xia Zhiqiu's heart moved, and he said, "That's the case, why don't the third sister play a game with the elder sister?"

She is confident that she can win against the fool in front of her, the prince is obviously interested in her, she naturally can't let this happen, and strangling it with her own hands is the right way.

Xia Zhixue was puzzled: "How can I break the leisure and elegance between the prince and his sister?"

"You are Zhiqiu's sister, and you are also the sister of this king, since you are a family, how can there be anything for you and mine. Your sister is interested, so don't disturb her interest. ”

The face is mild, and if you listen carefully, the threat in the words is visible.

"Then the little sister is better to be respectful than to obey her fate."

After half a pillar of incense.

"My sister deserves to be my sister, I am convinced." Xia Zhixue threw the chess pieces in her hand onto the chessboard, her voice coquettish.

Xia Zhiqiu's head was raised arrogantly, and his mouth was gentle: "Where, my sister can do the same with more practice."

Before he knew it, the sun had already set, and Ouyang Huaiyu pulled Xia Zhiqiu up: "It's not early, let's eat."

"Yes." Xia Zhiqiu nodded and agreed.

The two left together, but no one called her to be a living person.

Xia Zhixue couldn't help sneering in her heart: Who is this for? I learned that my sister was not treated well in the Hou Mansion, so she poured all her anger on me? Ouyang Huaiyu, you deserve to get such a vicious woman back, just like you foolishly, do you still want to marry a heavenly immortal?

She sat upright and swept all the pieces off the board with a wave of her sleeve.

This time, thinking of being my chess player, Xia Zhiqiu, you are really a fool's dream.

……

"What's the matter with the noise outside?" It was night, but it was only three watches, and there was no commotion outside, and Ouyang Huaiyu summoned Hua Cheng and asked.

After a while, Hua Cheng hurriedly ran in.

"What's wrong?"

"Over there in Hibiscus Garden, it's out of the water." Hua Cheng served Ouyang Huaiyu to change his clothes, and he was afraid that he would not be able to rest this night.

Ouyang Huaiyu was shocked, Furong Garden was the place where he let Xia Zhiqiu live, why did he suddenly go to the water?

"What about people? How is Xia Zhiqiu? ”

"All the girls and mothers-in-law have passed, don't worry, the prince has already come out." Hua Cheng followed behind Ouyang Huaiyu and dared to go to Furong Garden.

When he arrived, Xia Zhiqiu was wearing a futon, trembling, and he was already scared stupid.

"Zhiqiu," Ouyang Huaiyu shouted softly, "Are you okay?" Are there any injuries? ”

Hearing Ouyang Huaiyu's voice, Xia Zhiqiu woke up from a big dream and cried loudly: "Lord Wang......" lay in his arms, trembling all over: "Someone...... Someone is trying to harm me. ”

"Don't be afraid, Xiao Tao," summoned the maidservant: "Let Xiao Tao take you to change clothes, and then we will discuss the matter later, rest assured, if someone really wants to harm you, I will never let her go!"
