Chapter 262: Night Meeting (1)
Emperor Jianwen was in his prime.
Although the princes intended to compete for the position of prince, they did not dare to reveal it too obviously. so as not to provoke Emperor Jianwen's taboo dislike.
Lu Chi is friendly with the four princes, and he also knows a thing or two about the hidden thoughts of the four princes, and the persuasion at this time sounds vague, but in fact, it has something else.
As a woman, it is the biggest disadvantage. Especially when you're in heaven!
Even the princess of Changping, who was born with the most sacred heart, was destined to have no chance with the storage position, and only got the fiefdom of the two counties.
Even if the sixth princess is in the limelight for a while, she has no substantial impact on the four princes.
The fourth prince heard the meaning of the words, his brows finally stretched slightly, and a trace of soft emotions flashed in his eyes when he looked at Lu Chi: "Ziyu, you still know my mind best." ”
Lu Chi smiled slightly, his handsome face shining in the bright candle flame: "Your Highness is angry for a while, but I haven't thought about this yet." ”
The fourth prince exhaled the turbidity in his chest deeply: "There is a royal horse competition tomorrow, I will definitely win the first place, and I must not lose to her again." ”
Lu Chi said with a smile: "The imperial horse consumes the most physical strength, and Her Royal Highness the princess is talented, and her physical strength is far inferior to Her Royal Highness." Tomorrow's royal horse competition, His Royal Highness has no reason to lose again. ”
The fourth prince snorted, and his mood improved slightly. His eyes swept and suddenly fell to the desk: "What were you writing just now?" ”
A simple question, but Lu Chi was embarrassed: "It's nothing, it's just scribbling." Then, he stepped forward quickly and gathered away the rice paper that was spread on the table.
The sharp-eyed four princes have already taken the two lines of poetry on the paper into their eyes.
Qingqing Zijin, leisurely my heart.
But for the sake of the king, he has been groaning so far.
……
Who is thinking about Lu Chi?
The four princes looked at Lu Chi fixedly, their eyes were deep, and they couldn't get a glimpse of their true emotions: "The two families of Lu Lin are next door. If you miss Miss Lin, you can find an excuse to come and see you. Why do you want to 'groan so far'? ”
Lu Chi's fair-skinned handsome face flushed slightly, and soon, it turned into a wry smile: "In the past few months, Sister Lin has always refused to see me, and she has become more and more distant from me. I don't know why. ”
Increasingly distant?
The fourth prince's brows relaxed slightly, and he said lightly: "The girl's mind is unpredictable. Perhaps, she doesn't know your feelings, and only regards you as the brother next door. ”
Lu Chi was hit by an arrow in the chest, and smiled helplessly: "What His Highness said, it is also possible." ”
In fact, Lu Chi didn't think so in his heart.
A few months ago, Lin Weiwei treated him quite affectionately and casually, although the two did not pick out the explicit words, they had each other in their eyes. It's just that, for some reason, Lin suddenly became cold to him......
This subtle and unspeakable confusion and bitterness is difficult for Lu Chi to talk about even to his best friend.
Lu Chi quickly diverted the topic: "Lotus Pond Academy is indeed very strong this year, and the total score has been leading. Today's total score is 15 points higher than our Shochiku Academy. Tomorrow is the last day of competition, and if you want to overtake, you have to win the top three. ”
The fourth prince obviously also thought about this matter: "Moreover, the ranking of the Lotus Pond Academy needs to be after the top ten. ”
In this way, the total score can be surpassed.
It's just that, looking at the momentum of Lotus Pond Academy this year, who would dare to assert that the Lotus Pond Academy will not compete well in the imperial horse competition tomorrow?
After a few moments of discussion, no countermeasures were discussed.
With the emperor and queen in charge, no one in the academy dared to use any selfish means in secret. can only compete with each other with their own abilities.
Lu Chi glanced out the window and reminded euphemistically: "It's not early." Your Highness will have a royal horse competition tomorrow, so it's better to go back to the palace early and have a good rest. ”
The fourth prince said: "Today I will rest in the Lu Mansion." I'll go to Shochiku Academy with you tomorrow. ”
The four princes often come to Lufu, but it is the first time that they want to stay overnight. Lu Chi was stunned and said reflexively: "You need to wear a military uniform for tomorrow's competition, but Your Highness didn't bring a military uniform." ”
The fourth prince glanced at Lu Chi: "You and I are similar in size, I will wear your military uniform tomorrow." ”
Lu Chi couldn't find a reason to refuse, so he responded with a smile.
……
Xie Mansion, Chunjin Pavilion.
"It's getting late, and it's time for Miss to go to bed." Congyu said softly: "I have to get up early tomorrow!" ”
Xie Mingxi was in good spirits, and had no intention of going to bed early, so he smiled casually: "I don't have to participate in the competition tomorrow, just sit on the sidelines and watch." It doesn't hurt to go to bed later tonight. ”
He ordered Congyu to bring the book over and read it intently.
Congyu and Fuyu stood aside and waited, sighing secretly in their hearts.
Others only know that Miss Xie San is amazingly talented, and she is proficient in all kinds of ritual music books. Only when they are close to them can they know how diligent and hard the young lady is.
To outperform the rest of the world, talent alone is not enough. For there is no shortage of wise people in the world. The only way to do this is to be diligent.
This was said by the young lady herself. In the past six months, the young lady has also practiced and let them see what diligence is.
The eldest young master and the second lady only knew jealousy and resentment. They should have come and see that Miss had to study late into the night every night......
In the silence, the sudden knock on the door was particularly eye-catching.
Walk forward and open the door from the jade neat ground.
Standing outside the door is Fang Qiao.
After Fang Qiao embroidered the purse for a few months, it completely and honestly stopped. Finally, he was able to work by Xie Mingxi's side again, even if it was an errand and errand, Fang Qiao didn't dare to dislike it.
No matter what you do, it's better than bowing your head and embroidering a purse all day.
"Miss Qiyu," Fang Qiao reported in a low voice, "The porter personally came to deliver the letter, saying that Her Royal Highness the Sixth Princess had sent someone to see the young lady. ”
Six princesses?
Xie Mingxi raised his eyebrows slightly and stood up: "Where are the people?" ”
Fang Qiao replied: "The person is outside the gate of Xie Mansion." The porter invited him in, but he said that it was inconvenient to enter the Xie Mansion at night to see the young lady, and asked the young lady to see her outside the door. ”
Xie Mingxi snorted and walked out of the room.
Congyu Fuyu immediately followed, muttering secretly in his heart.
The sixth princess and Miss Bai Ri have just met, and they will see each other again tomorrow. Is there something you can't talk about tomorrow? What's the point of sending someone so late?
……
The sixth princess sent someone, what would it be?
Along the way, Xie Mingxi was also thinking about this problem in his heart.
Could it be that after winning the four princes today, he was provoked by the four princes in the palace?
Or is it the unanimous hostility of all the princes?
Or are you worried that your injured index finger will affect tomorrow's horse races?
All doubts turned into silence the moment they saw the person who came.
The moonlight like water sprinkled outside the door of Xie Mansion, and the young man in the moon-white brocade robe leaned leisurely beside the horse, only revealing his handsome side face. Hearing the footsteps, the young man straightened up, turned his head, and smiled at Xie Mingxi.
Handsome and beautiful faces, bright and blooming, thrillingly beautiful.
Xie Mingxi: "......"
