Chapter 21 (2nd Update)
Lu Zhiling came out of Su Ziqi's courtyard, raised his eyes and saw that the sky was overcast again, and there was snow today.
He thought that there was so much snow in the capital this year, and it would fall as soon as he said it, as if there was too much cotton in the sky, and it was thrown to the ground.
He stood in the street and shouted, "Out of the wind!" ”
Lifeng appeared in response, "Shizi." ”
Lu Zhiling instructed him, "You go and send a message to the Seventh Princess, and say that I will invite her to Wangjiang Tower for tea in half an hour." ”
Lifeng was stunned for a moment, and immediately went.
Lu Zhiling walked towards Wangjiang Tower.
Sure enough, he also walked to Wangjiang Tower, and there was snow in the sky, and the snowflakes fell on him, he thought, that day, he heard Yun Chi say, "The poor and the blue fall into the yellow spring, life and death are not worth it." Today, he heard Su Ziqi say, "I can't wait to pull her to die, but I am willing to live for her." He suddenly understood that his life of so many years of fucking up had been in vain.
When it comes to the prince of Jingguo Mansion, most people say that Lu Shizi is suave and cynical, except for his father and mother who said that he is not a thing, what he hears the most is that he is gentle.
But now his romance and his lack of enlightenment really make him feel that he has lived in vain.
He thought all the way, walked into the Wangjiang Tower, raised his hand and shouted to the guy who hadn't found him yet, "Let's have a pot of good tea." ”
The young man turned around and said, "Oops", "Lu Shizi, are you here?" It's been a long time since you've been here? Are you alone? ”
"What a word! This son asked you to have a pot of tea. Lu Zhiling stepped into the threshold and knocked on the little guy's brain, neither light nor heavy.
The young man shrunk his neck, hurriedly responded, and asked tentatively, "Then where are you sitting?" ”
Lu Zhiling ignored him and raised his feet to the second floor.
The young man secretly wondered how long it had been since this prince had been arrogant in the capital? Although he is more arrogant now, the arrogance of his identity and power in his hands is different from the arrogance of his previous brawl when he was walking through the streets.
It is said that on the day of the prince's wedding, it was rumored that the seventh princess asked Lu Shizi in public, and Lu Shizi gave her the news three days later.
After Lu Zhiling went up to the second floor, he didn't take a few steps, and sat at the table by the railing, which is not good for listening to books and drinking tea, but it is a good position to lean on the railing and watch the street scene.
Not long after he sat down, the young man looked for the traces of Lu Zhiling, went upstairs all the way, and put a pot of tea and a few plates of melon and fruit snacks in front of him with a smile.
Lu Zhiling patted him on the shoulder, took out a piece of silver and threw it to him, and said locally, "Okay, this world hasn't come for too long, you still remember the lord's preferences, and reward you." ”
The young man smiled, "Thank you for the reward, no matter when you come, the villain remembers your preferences." ”
Lu Zhiling loved to hear this, so he didn't let him go immediately, patted him on the shoulder and said, "This son asked you, have you married a daughter-in-law?" ”
The little guy smiled, "Thank you for your concern, the villain married a daughter-in-law not long ago." ”
"Oh?" Lu Zhiling looked at him, "Your small body, your hair hasn't grown, will you be a maid?" ”
The young man's face flushed, "Don't look at the small body of the villain, he is seventeen this year." I fell in love with the little Yan girl from Zhang's butcher's house next door early in the morning, and it has been three years, and I finally got my hands on it. When the words fell, he was thin-skinned and whispered, "The villain found a few spring palace maps, and learned naturally...... That's it. ”
Lu Zhiling raised his eyebrows and looked at him, "Three years ago, you were only fourteen!" ”
"yes." The young man rubbed his hands and said, "My daughter-in-law is good-looking and capable, if it weren't for her father, who has a butcher's father, the matchmaker would probably have broken through the threshold." I took advantage of the fact that I was close to the water. recognized Zhang Butcher as his godson, so that she married me. ”
"You said that after three years of grinding, she likes you too?" Lu Zhiling asked.
The young man laughed, "I like it, she has a strong temperament, and she ran away several people who wanted to marry her, but she married me, so she naturally likes me, and she gave birth to a big fat boy not long ago, and now she is confined." ”
Lu Zhiling waved his hand, "Congratulations." Then he took out another piece of silver and gave it to him.
The young man didn't expect Lu Zhiling to be more generous today than before, and said that only one piece of silver was enough after he shirked him. was rejected by Lu Zhiling, signaled him to take it, and the young man thanked him again and again and went down happily.
Lu Zhiling poured himself a cup of tea, and while drinking, he waited for the seventh princess to come while sipping melon seeds on his legs.
When the seventh princess got the news, she was stunned, thinking that Lu Zhiling would look for her tomorrow, but she didn't expect to ask her to go to Wangjiang Tower in advance today.
He only gave her half an hour, so she didn't even have time to change her clothes again, so she hurried out of the palace.
After chasing it for many years and liking it for many years, she also wants to have a good time.
The seventh princess came to Wangjiang Tower, the time was just right, and she was pinched by Lu Zhiling for half an hour, no more than a moment, no less moment, she entered Wangjiang Tower, glanced around, and did not see Lu Zhiling's shadow.
The young man knew the Seventh Princess, his eyes widened, and when he saw the Seventh Princess coming, he hurriedly stepped forward, read the two pieces of silver that Lu Zhiling gave him, and asked in a low voice, "Seventh Princess, are you here to find Lu Shizi?" ”
The seventh princess nodded, Lu Zhiling likes to come here to drink tea, she has blocked Lu Zhiling here more than once, and immediately said, "This time he asked me to come, where is he?" ”
When the young man heard this, he felt that there was no need to report to Lu Shizi, and immediately said, "The position of the railing on the second floor, you can see it when you go up." ”
The Seventh Princess immediately went up to the second floor.
Lu Zhiling has been looking at her since the appearance of the Seventh Princess, he has never looked at the Seventh Princess seriously, that day in the East Palace, although he was not drunk, but he was also half drunk, so today he was sober and watched the Seventh Princess all the way from the long street outside Wangjiang Tower, the carriage was in a hurry, stopped under Wangjiang Tower, she got out of the carriage, and rushed in quickly, as in the past, chasing his figure flashed very similar.
Not long after, the seventh princess rushed upstairs, paused at the staircase, touched her head, tidied up her hair bun, took a deep breath, and walked towards Lu Zhiling.
Although she has made a good defense in her heart, she still can't really stop her heart in the face of Lu Zhiling.
Compared with the seventh princess, Lu Zhiling seems to be much more leisurely, he crosses his legs, swallows melon seeds, like a noble son in the imperial capital, the skin of melon seeds is sprinkled on the ground, a thick layer is spread, and it falls on his robe, stained with crumbs, and he doesn't care.
When the seventh princess saw Lu Zhiling with this appearance, her mind fluttered, she felt in a trance that Lu Zhiling was what she remembered, everyone in the capital said that he had changed and grown up now, and he was not the Lu Zhiling of the past, even on the day of the East Palace, she felt the same, but today, she felt that Lu Zhiling was still the same Lu Zhiling.
She felt that every time she saw Lu Zhiling, she curled up and walked in front of Lu Zhiling, "Lu Shizi." ”
Lu Zhiling turned his head to look at him, and the seventh princess met his eyes, and his heart beat again.
Lu Zhiling tilted his head and looked at the Seventh Princess and smiled, "Princess, please take a seat." ”
The Seventh Princess slowly sat opposite Lu Zhiling, wondering what he would say to her? Whether to promise her or reject her, the two results, waiting for him to pronounce the verdict, she didn't dare to look forward to it, but she was also afraid of disappointment.
Lu Zhiling poured a cup of tea for the Seventh Princess with his own hands, and then pushed the dim sum to her.
The seventh princess bit her lip, took a sip of tea, and the slightly hot tea entered her throat, so that her heart was also slightly hot, she held the tea cup, and did not dare to speak, for fear of speaking, she would leak her confidence.
She lost enough ugliness in front of Lu Zhiling.
Lu Zhiling seemed to understand her thoughts, so he spoke, "Princess, I'm sorry. ”
The seventh princess shook her hand, fortunately she drank some of the tea and didn't spill it, and fortunately, after so many years, she had waited desperately, so now that she heard Lu Zhiling's sentence in person, she didn't stand up and shed tears immediately.
She clenched the teacup tightly, but she still heard her own trembling voice when she spoke, "Lu Shizi, can you tell me, why?" Are you serious...... Don't like me in the slightest? Where do I not like you? ”
Lu Zhiling straightened his expression, looked at him seriously and said, "I have never been open to the affairs of men and women, and I have not hidden it from the princess, even if it is not you today, no matter who is sitting here, it will make no difference." ”
Although the seventh princess is blindly obsessed with Lu Zhiling, she is not a fool and understands what he means, that is to say, it is not that she needs to change anything, but that Lu Zhiling still doesn't like people.
She looked at the man in front of her, it was the first time she could be in front of him, he let her look unabashedly, his eyes were serious, not fake, she slowly put down the teacup, and said softly, "I know." ”
Lu Zhiling is not without pity and cherishing jade, if not, the prince's wedding was in the East Palace that day, and the seventh princess asked him in public, with his former bastard style, it is estimated that he will run away with his legs, and he will not give face to say that he will consider it seriously.
He really thought about it, and he really answered her seriously.
