Chapter 34: The Examination of the Book

The black chess pieces are placed between the fingertips, lining the skin color of snow-white. Gu Mingxiu wore a cloak and stood silently in front of the chessboard, his long eyelashes drooped slightly, he couldn't see his emotions clearly, and there was a bit of melancholy on his body.

She stared at the chess game, and the pieces in her hand never fell.

Seeing this, the young lady thought that Gu Mingxiu couldn't solve it, and couldn't help but feel a little proud: "What's the matter, Miss Gu Si, aren't you stumped?" She covered her lips and smiled very proudly, "It turns out that the fourth lady is nothing more than that." ”

didn't know that those young masters of the family frowned at her.

The son, who had praised Gu Mingxiu before, looked at the young lady quite dissatisfied: "Which young lady is that?" is so unreasonable, bullying such a little girl in front of so many people. ”

"The young lady of the Gu family didn't even come out to help her." The son on the side echoed, with a little distress in his tone, "It's a pity for such a girl." ”

The sound of the conversation of the Yashe downstairs reached the ears of several people, and the fifth prince faintly withdrew his gaze: "Extremely stupid." ”

Not to mention anything else, it was that song that made these young masters quite interested in Gu Mingxiu. Playing the piano well, and having such a superior appearance, it is enough to be shocked. They also looked at the chess game carefully, but there were several exquisite chess games, and Gu Mingxiu solved them very beautifully, which was already convincing to everyone.

At this moment, the young lady was talking like this, obviously embarrassing Gu Mingxiu, but it made people feel pity for this Miss Gu Si, who had not been in Beijing for a long time.

The sixth prince shook the folding fan and sneered: "I heard that Gu Changge was gentle and generous, but now I look at it, it doesn't seem to be like this?" My sister was bullied and never stood up to say it, Fourth brother, I remember that you originally liked that Miss Gu Er? ”

The named fourth prince was almost choked to death by the tea, waved his hand and said: "I just appreciate the talent of the second lady, sixth brother, speak scruples, don't let people listen to some bad things." ”

The sixth prince glanced at him meaningfully, smiled and said nothing.

Gu Mingxiu stared at the chessboard in front of him, and his dark eyes were a little trance-like. The sideburns hid the side face, and she could clearly feel a thoughtful gaze firmly on her face, with a bit of sharp scrutiny and inquiry.

Xiao Wang Shen Huai.

She stepped forward slowly, and the chess pieces fell, and then raised her head and said lightly: "Agreed." ”

Without saying a word, he turned upstairs, his hand under his cloak clenching the corners of his coat slightly. The moment he stepped on the stairs, his steps swayed slightly, and Gu Mingxiu's body tended to fall a little. Mo Zhu behind him hurriedly stepped forward to support Gu Mingxiu, and his tone couldn't hide his worry: "Girl? ”

Gu Mingxiu's face was pale, he shook his head, and walked up.

In fact, she had seen that chess game, but not in this life, but in the previous life. This chess game is quite difficult to solve, it is the chess game that the man casually puts out, and she is forced to solve it. There is no record in the ancient books, Gu Ming embroidered for three days and failed to find the solution, the other party smiled and taught her the solution very helplessly.

The red sleeves in charge stepped forward to take a closer look, smiled slightly, and said loudly: "The fourth lady has solved this game." She turned her head to look at the young lady who was pale and quite unwilling, and said in a kind manner, "Miss Zhu still has objections?" ”

Miss Zhu glared fiercely at the person who had already gone upstairs and turned around the corridor and disappeared, and threw off the veil and retreated.

Shen Huai in the attic leaned against the window, and he was unparalleled. With a cold smile, he lazily swept towards those eyes that were glued to him, with a faint sharpness, which scared off many people. Shen Huai looked at the corner of the white clothes that disappeared into the corridor, and his faint eyes were slightly dark.

"Luo Feng."

Shen Huai called lightly, and a person immediately appeared behind him, bowing his head respectfully: "Master? ”

Glancing slightly, Shen Huai said, "How did the people who asked you to look for it before?" ”

Luo Feng lowered his head: "Master, there is no news yet....we have been to that village, but we can't find the hermit." ”

"His father and son are quite familiar with the art of Qimen Dunjia, so they must have known that you are going. Keep your movements clean and don't startle the snake. Shen Huai said lightly, his eyes were slightly cursed, and his tone was a little oppressive, "As soon as possible." ”

Luo Feng has long been accustomed to the oppression of his master, and today he has experienced something else in this oppression: "Yes." He saluted and was about to retreat, when he heard his master ask lightly, "How is her body?" ”

Immediately knowing who the person in Shen Huai's mouth was, Luo Feng's gaze swept underneath, and after a little hesitation, he said: "My subordinates have inquired about the doctors who have seen Miss Gu in previous years, saying that the girl has been weak since she was a child, and now she is all raised by the medicine stone, and she is a little careless... It may be gone. He paused and whispered, "This is all a matter of previous years, and Miss Gu seems to be refusing to see the doctor again for half a year." ”

Shen Huai snorted and said lightly: "Arrange it." ”

Luo Fengxuan immediately understood: "Yes." He stepped back.

"Girl, are you okay?" Mu Lan had already been guarding the door, and when she saw the two of them coming, she hurriedly helped them in, poured water and carefully served the prepared medicine to Gu Mingxiu.

Mo Zhu tightened her cloak a little, and didn't let her take it off because it was indoors, and said worriedly: "Girl, if it's really unwell, why don't we go back first?" ”

Shen Qingqing treated her face better, then frowned and said: "I thought that your weak body was exaggerated by others, but I didn't want it to be really bad, have you ever asked a doctor to heal?" ”

Mo Zhu arranged Gu Mingxiu's sideburns on the side, and said softly: "My girl has been recuperating from illness when she was in Chongming Temple, and she has been getting better these days. ”

"Miss Gu, I'm offended." Ning Fei said softly, she raised her hand on Gu Mingxiu's pulse, carefully checked the pulse for a moment, and frowned lightly, "It should be that Gu Xiao was injured in her mother's womb and brought the illness out." The disease is too deeply rooted to be completely eradicated. If you are not careful, the food you eat, the cold and scorching heat, or the restlessness may cause serious illness. ”

She withdrew her hand, worried: "Your body is really too weak. ”

Seeing that a few people were a little surprised, Shen Qingqing said with a smile: "I just forgot to say that Fei'er's mother is not very good, so Fei'er has studied medicine since she was a child and is quite proficient. ”

"It's just a little bit of a scratch about it." Ning Fei smiled and shook his head, a little embarrassed. Turning his head to look at Gu Mingxiu, who looked faint, Ning Fei asked, "Do you want to go back and rest?" ”

Gu Mingxiu shook her head and smiled slightly: "If I leave, I won't be able to sing this drama today." ”

Ning Fei was slightly stunned, and then heard a knock on the door, Gu Changge asked worriedly at the door: "Fourth sister, I am the second sister, I just seem to see that you are not very comfortable, but where is the discomfort?" ”

Shen Qingqing frowned, and said with a cold look: "Pretend." ”

Giving people a soothing smile, Gu Mingxiu ordered people to speak. Mozhu opened the door and saluted the two. Gu Changge smiled at the three inside, walked straight to Gu Mingxiu's side, and held her hand worriedly: "Why is it so cold?" Your face is so ugly, do you want me to send you back first? ”

"No need, didn't the second sister say that this article will be quite rare, wouldn't it be a disappointment to go back at this moment?" Gu Mingxiu said lightly, she pulled out her hand and brushed her sideburns, and said with a smile, "At this moment, the book test has begun, isn't the second sister also ready?" ”

The book is compared to the talent and poetry.

Each person can write a poem and throw it in a small wooden box. The top three are selected by the people of Yilan Garden and the other two owners of the plum blossom post, and they are announced on the listening platform.

Gu Changge paused and said with a smile: "If the fourth sister is unwilling, then let me help you send the poem down, you are so born here to rest, you don't have to go down yourself." She called the maid to prepare pen and ink, and handed it to Gu Mingxiu with a smile, "When you finish writing, I will send it down together." ”

Gu Mingxiu did not delay, and after finishing writing, when the ink dried a little, Gu Liyi sent down the poems of several people. Gu Changge only smiled when he saw this, so he was accompanied by Gu Xiaodie, and after talking to her, she got up and left when Gu Liyi and the two came back.

Shen Qingqing frowned impatiently when she saw the door closed: "Fake affection, I don't like it very much when I look at it." She turned her head to look at Gu Mingxiu, frowned, and said, "I don't believe that she is so kind to come over and take a look at you and help you send you a red note." ”

Ning Fei smiled and comforted Shen Qingqing: "Although Gu Changge is a little annoying, maybe he really cares about Miss Gu?" ”

"You don't know that person." Shen Qingqing snorted and said lightly, "Gu Changge is the best at acting, but in fact, she hates those who steal her limelight." Xiao Xiu'er is out of the limelight today, suppressing her more than one, I guess she hates to death in her heart, and she has to make a generous appearance on her face, and she hates it when she sees it. ”

Shen Qingqing spoke really unkindly, with undisguised disgust.

In the end, they are talking about other people's sisters in front of others. Ning Fei patted Shen Qingqing's hand a little embarrassed, and turned his head to appease the two sisters of the Gu family, but seeing Gu Liyi nodding with a very approving look, Gu Mingxiu's expression was faint, and the corners of his mouth were a little smiling.

"Of course she didn't have any good intentions." Gu Mingxiu stared thoughtfully at the few people who took out the red notes in the small wooden box below, lowered her eyes and smiled faintly, "She wants to use this literary meeting to make me ruined, so she will instigate her to bully me, thinking that she can see that I am not in the stream, but unfortunately, I am really not afraid of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting." ”

Shen Qingqing listened with interest: "You are proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, Gu Changge has always been very good at Danqing, I think I will compete with you in a while." ”

Gu Mingxiu shook his head, and there was a bit of deep meaning in his tone: "I'm afraid that you will be disappointed, I am afraid that the painting test for a while will not be able to compare, and the book test will not be compared, Gu Changge will leave in a hurry." ”

Reading is exciting, reading is wonderful!
