Chapter 308: Stay a little longer

Si Boyan raised his eyebrows.

"That's what King Huai said?"

"Yes!"

Si Boyan's eyes bent slightly, and he was smiling on his face, but he couldn't smile at the bottom of his eyes, giving people a feeling of coldness.

"He said it, and that's true."

"Really? That's good. ”

Hearing this answer, Chang Le was not happy at all, it was really inconsistent with the emotions of his expression and the content of his speech. It was obviously good news, and it came out of his mouth like a threatening word.

Speechless, Chang Le glanced at the mountains of twists and turns on his imperial case, trying to divert the topic.

"Do you still need so many twists and turns? You're so busy, I won't talk to you here, I'll go back first. ”

"Are your legs better? I was in a hurry to go back. ”

Si Boyan sat up slowly, took a picture scroll from the side, unfolded it slightly, and his eyes fell on it.

Chang Le's eyes rolled: "The person who is in a hurry is not me, am I not afraid that you will be in a hurry?" ”

"I'm not in a hurry." Si Boyan said, handed the scroll to Chang Le, "Have you heard King Huai talk about his mother?" ”

Chang Le inexplicably took the scroll from his hand.

"Nope."

Si Boyan watched her open the scroll.

"Then do you know about the Queen Mother?"

"King Huai hasn't told me, and I have nowhere to know."

Chang Le opened the picture scroll and blocked his face to hide his weakness.

Why did Si Boyan ask about King Huai again? is still her most sensitive to the matter of the mother's concubine of the king.

When he saw the content of the scroll, Chang Le had a moment of froze. The woman on the picture scroll is very good-looking, sitting by the lotus pond, surrounded by flowers, and her eyes are quiet, like a fairy.

The woman in this painting is somewhat familiar to Chang Le. Xu is Si Boyan mentioned King Huai's mother, so she can quickly remember that the person on this picture scroll is King Huai's mother, Concubine Yuan. On King Huai's fan, there is also a portrait of this woman.

"I also thought that his relationship with you would bring up the matter of his mother to you."

Si Boyan seemed to be talking to herself, and found that she was slow to move the scroll away, and asked lightly.

"Do you know the person in the painting?"

Chang Le slowly rolled up the scroll, careful for fear of breaking it.

"I know, it's the mother of King Huai. There is also a portrait of her on the fan of King Huai. ”

Si Boyan seemed to have finally heard the answer he wanted to hear, and nodded in satisfaction.

"Then the female ghost you saw in the Yuanxiang Palace, is it similar to her?"

"...... with her" Chang Le twisted his eyebrows, looked at Si Boyan for a long time, thought about it carefully, and shook his head, "It's not like." The female ghost listened to the voice of a mother-in-law, she was not young, and she would not be the mother of King Huai. ”

"In this way, can you be sure that there are any other ghosts in Yuanxiang Palace besides that mother-in-law?"

Chang Le sank: "I'm not sure, I only saw one." The one that came out was enough to scare half my life, and there were a few more, and I fainted there. ”

Si Boyan took back the scroll from her hand and suddenly smiled: "It seems that it is not necessarily a good thing to be able to see those things." ”

"It's not a good thing in the first place."

"I'm done with my question, so do you want to rest here for a while, or go back to the Xuanling Temple?"

Si Boyan put the scroll into the picture tube next to the imperial case, picked up a copy of the book, and looked at it by himself.

Chang Le wanted to say that she would go directly, but as soon as she stood up, her legs protested. She didn't bother to carry forward her spirit of courage to fight against fate, and directly succumbed to her legs that couldn't take a step.

glanced at Si Boyan twice, and saw that he really did his own thing and didn't care about her, Chang Le couldn't help but feel surprised, and some doubted whether what he just said was polite.

"Can I stay here a little longer?"

"Hmm."

Si Boyan replied softly without raising his head, as if this was not a matter worth discussing.

He just looked at Chang Le pitifully, and he didn't have to think about it to know that if she went out of the door of this imperial study, she would definitely be escorted back to Xuanlingguan and forced to pray for him. Although he also hoped to get rid of the Gu worms earlier, he was not in a hurry at this time.

Chang Le's heart blossomed, and while Si Boyan was concentrating on criticizing the folds, a pair of thief's eyes began to glance around. First of all, she admired her "Eight Horses".

This was her first time in the study. I've heard that her painting is hanging here, but I didn't expect it to be hanging in a rather conspicuous place, in the center of the back of the imperial case. It's a pity that she didn't mention her name on the "Eight Horses" at that time, and only wrote the name of "Tianjia Painting Workshop".

In addition to her paintings, Chang Le couldn't find anything more eye-catching, if he had to say, it was only Si Boyan. Chang Le stared at Si Boyan and couldn't help but start figuring it out again.

Why did Si Boyan ask the female ghost in Yuanxiang Palace just now if she was the mother concubine of King Huai, could it be that she was afraid that Concubine Yuan's unjust soul would tell the truth of the year, but in fact, Si Boyan killed Concubine Yuan in order to compete for the throne?

If this is the case, then King Huai knows the truth, and he will definitely turn against Si Boyan?

Chang Leduo hoped that the person sitting in front of him was a tyrant. In this way, she wished that King Huai would turn against him and replace him.

She shouldn't have heard about it in the first place! It's all to blame on that Yang Scoop!

was secretly ruthless, and suddenly found that Si Boyan raised his head, and couldn't help but freeze in place, stiff.

Si Boyan looked at her as a thief, and couldn't help but hook his lips and smile.

"Are you bored? If you're bored, just sharpen the ink for me. ”

"Grinding ink?"

Chang Le walked towards him hesitantly, always feeling that such a scene was strange, and his body still involuntarily sat on the side of the imperial case. Reaching out and pulling over the inkstone, he picked up the ink strip and looked at it in disgust.

The whole body of this ink strip is red, and the pigment is also red, which is used to make folds.

"I'm not going to grind ink."

Chang Le muttered. After looking at the ink strips, I still learned what I saw from the TV, straightened my body, and began to grind round and round very seriously.

Si Boyan glanced at it and found that she had already begun to grind, and she still looked a little bit, so she said: "You can grind with the strength and focus, the light and urgency are moderate, don't forget to add water." ”

"Oh."

Chang Le should give up, and feel that it is wrong. Is she here to be a scholar? Why did you grind his ink?

"As the emperor's prince, are they all so familiar? Raise people, unceremoniously. ”

Chang Le frowned and complained, but the work in his hands did not stop. Now that they're all grinding, she's going to have to see how well she's done. Perhaps, she is also a genius in grinding ink, and she can show off to King Huai when she goes back. It seems a bit naΓ―ve to think so.

But she's so easy to satisfy. What's the point of a life without showing off?

Si Boyan paused because of her question, and when he turned his head, he saw her eyebrows fluttering, and her face was much gentler. Without replying, he turned his head back and continued to look at his excerpts.

Probably it's really easy to get along with her.

is so heartless and easy to bully, no wonder King Huai is willing to be close to her, and De Aihua quickly gets along with her. After all, to communicate with such a person, you don't need to spend more brains and energy, and the other party is still easy to communicate.

The point is, this person has too many surprises.

You think she's just a woman who is bullied by her concubine, and she immediately draws some small picture albums. When you think she is out of the ordinary, she can also make shocking paintings. When you think she's just a painter, it turns out that she's still surrounded by spirits, a strange person who sees ghosts. Just when you think that's all she has, she actually has a relationship with Yangyi......

I don't know, she still has some secrets that are worth exploring.

King Huai treats her as a treasure, and there are some reasons.

"Do you deal with these folds every day? Is it true that you have to review the excerpts of big and small things in the country every day and sleep no more than two hours? Chang Le yawned, and talked to Si Boyan when he found a topic.

The boring and patient work of grinding ink is really not suitable for her.

"No, if you want, you can sleep normally." Si Boyan answered her question casually, picked up the red pen and wrote a few words on the fold, "Most of the folds will also be dealt with by the prime minister......"

Before he could finish speaking, a head quietly moved to his side, squinting his eyes cautiously trying to see the contents of the fold.

Si Boyan tilted his head: "What are you doing?" ”

was caught on the spot, Chang Le quickly sat back and smiled obediently: "I just want to see if you will criticize the 'I am very thoughtful' or something like that on the fold." ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Si Boyan had already noticed that there were some strange thoughts in her head, and when she heard this, she was still inexplicably surprised.

Isn't this kind of criticism normal? What's the point of seeing this?

"I haven't seen the world, so let's say, you go on."

Chang Le felt Si Boyan's speechlessness, sighed, and continued to immerse himself in the world of grinding ink.

Si Boyan had just given up thinking about the meaningless and boring question she had just asked, and immediately heard her ask again.

"Your harem, is it really full of three palaces and six courtyards, and three thousand concubines and beauties?"

Si Boyan said: "No. ”

Chang Le asked again: "Then are you able to read a thousand words at the age of three, learn martial arts at the age of five, read four books and five classics at the age of six, know poetry and songs at the age of eight, and have a strategy for governing the country at the age of ten?" ”

Si Boyan paused and said, "That's King Huai." ”

"King Huai?"

Chang Le asked in disbelief. Si Boyan nodded without the slightest hesitation.

"King Huai has been gifted and intelligent since he was a child, so he was favored by the emperor."

Si Boyan hung his head, his eyelashes trembled slightly, put aside the red pen in his hand, closed the fold and put it aside.

"He's much better than me."

Chang Le couldn't answer this. It didn't feel right, so I could only pretend to be stupid and bow my head and continue to grind the ink. After grinding halfway, Chang Le felt that it was better to go back, lest she say something and pit King Huai.

"Your Majesty, you work slowly, I won't bother you, you continue."

Si Boyan raised his eyes, and slowly closed his eyes, his face was still shallow and indifferent, but he just said "um".

Chang Le got up and patted the corner of his clothes, and quickly walked out of the hall, and when he went out, Chang Le glanced back. I saw Si Boyan sitting in front of the imperial case, repeating the action of looking at the excerpts, like an emotionless robot, as boring as her praying in the Sanqing Palace.
