Chapter 42: Grown Up
Rui Xiyan is not shallow, his appearance is plain, I didn't expect his wife to be bright. Shen Ang thought to himself, with a glimpse of Fang Cai, the beauty quickly retreated, but the beauty lingered in Shen Ang's mind. With long hair like black mist, she was only tied up with a simple hosta, and she had thin bangs on her forehead, she didn't like to use hair oil, and she didn't care about some broken hair.
She has two flying curved eyebrows, her eyes are like a phoenix and like a peach blossom, she looks through the gap in the window, a slanted glance, a pair of dark pupils add a bit of affection.
"I didn't expect Song Ling's daughter to have such a good look, no wonder you would rather not have the dividends of the previous year, but also protect her, I should have thought of it a long time ago." Shen Ang's words ended in a lingering tone, with a clear unfinished meaning.
"The emperor laughed, compared to so many beauties in the harem, he is just a vulgar thing." Rui Xiqiang said calmly, and he scolded in his heart: "A slut is a slut, and he keeps seducing men!" He had already forgotten that it was half an hour ago that he asked Song Zhi to make a snack and send it over, and Shen Ang's uninvited arrival made Song Zhi bump into him.
"Vulgar things?" Shen Ang raised his voice, "How about this?" In addition to the queen and the concubine, you can pick any woman in the palace, let's change it, how about it? In Shen Ang's eyes, whether it is the queen or the concubine, they are just tools for giving birth to children, if it is not for their family background to support them behind their backs, what does it matter if they reward Rui Xi? Women are common, and such a beauty with eyes is rare.
"The emperor must not laugh, this woman has been crazy since her mother's death, and she often hurts people, but today is only slightly better." Rui Xi hurriedly knelt down, cold sweat was dripping behind his back, and even his hands and feet were weak. "The minister has no intention of deceiving, this woman is really not suitable for the emperor."
Shen Ang picked up the lid of the cup and let go of his hand again, and the lid of the cup smashed on the cup, making a sharp crisp sound. Rui Xi knew that this was a sign of his dissatisfaction, but he still bit his lower lip and did not let go.
"With this woman by your side, even if it's a crazy person, it's good to be a vase. Why is Aiqing so nervous? Get up. Shen Ang said, his voice didn't sound much displeasure, but it was very calm, but Rui Xi still knelt in place, not daring to get up.
"I came to you today to discuss something important, what do I want to say if you kneel like this?" Rui Xi's abrasive temperament made Shen Ang gradually become a little impatient. Rui Xi heard this idea and quickly got up.
"In the past few days, a few storytellers have appeared in the bazaar, talking about the poisoning of the king by the prince of the previous dynasty, which is clearly insinuating me." Rui Xi had also heard about this, he thought about it, and said: "It's just that some homeless people in the market are doing trouble, and it's not a problem." ”
"Not a problem?" I don't know what went wrong with this, Shen Ang suddenly raised his voice, and a hard object smashed into Rui Xi's face.
Rui Xi didn't dare to dodge, nor did he dare to cry out in pain, and when he came back to his senses, he realized that what had just hit his face was a book, and the spine of the book left a red mark on Rui Xi's face. Rui Xi touched the wound on his face, only to feel something sticky running down his face.
Rui Xi turned the pages with his bloody fingers, and the book was full of wild words alluding to the inside story of Shen Ang's ascension to the throne.
"Do you know how many copies of this book have been printed?" Shen Ang said slowly, his tone sounded like he was saying that the weather was very good today, "Five thousand copies, three thousand copies have been sold out now, and there are all over the country, do you want me to fall down before I sit down?" ”
"The minister doesn't dare, about this matter, the minister has actually found out! It's just that the evidence is insufficient, so I haven't had time to report it. Rui Xi said busily.
"Who is it?" Shen Ang asked.
"Wen family," Rui Xi spat out these two words, "but there is no conclusive evidence yet, and it is not good to act rashly." ”
Shen Ang snorted lightly, as if he had heard something extremely funny.
He hooked his fingers, and Rui Xi stepped forward hesitantly, 'Smack! Shen Ang slapped Rui Xi in the face, he didn't feel pain, but felt that the numbness on his face spread little by little, and his mouth was full of fishy sweetness.
……
Zeng Yunyi didn't know why Xie had to bring herself to listen to the play today, but when she saw the people in the elegant seat opposite, she suddenly understood her mother's intentions. A young man was sitting there listening to the play, his black hair stood up high, revealing a smooth forehead, his sword eyebrows were cut horizontally, and a pair of pupils were focused on exuding brilliance. The light in his eyes has a spirituality that makes people feel a little naughty.
Song Zhi sat beside him, and while watching the play, he put the peeled pine nuts into the small plate in front of Song Zhi's eyes. Song Zhi looked at the water sleeves on the stage very intently, obviously very used to being taken care of by his brother like this.
The two brothers and sisters of their Song family, because of their outstanding appearance, seem to be out of place with the people around them, in addition, the two of them seem surprisingly quiet, and they have never seen them play with the play, coaxing, as if they are out of the world, but they are focused on watching the play.
As soon as Song Zhi turned her head, she saw Zeng Yunyi, she beckoned, and a very beautiful smile bloomed.
Song Ling noticed Song Zhi's movements, and followed her movements and sight to see Zeng Yunyi. Zeng Yun's eyes dodged, but he met him again and nodded at his gaze.
"When did my mother start a matchmaker?" Zeng Yunyi opened a pine nut, looked at the shriveled kernel inside, and threw it into the celadon jar on the table.
When she reached out to get another one, she suddenly lost her interest and threw the pine nuts back on the plate.
"What nonsense?" Xie Shi pretended not to understand, "I've wanted to watch this "Drunken Concubine" for a long time, and the Luo family class only returned to the capital last month, and this ticket is hard to find." Mrs. Song knew that she liked it, so she gave me two tickets, so she took you to watch the play. ”
Zeng Yunyi stopped talking, she was silent like this, Xie Shi felt itchy instead, she leaned over and whispered in Zeng Yunyi's ear: "I asked your father and brother, they have a good impression of General Song's son, outstanding martial arts, but gentle and kind." Competing with others is all about stopping at the point, and it never hurts others. As for the appearance, you can see it too, it's pretty good. ”
Zeng Yunyi glanced at Xie Shi, his expression was neither ashamed nor annoyed, which made Xie Shi confused. "Daughter, you can say a few words! Otherwise, it looks like I'm playing the harp to a cow. ”
"Daddy is in a hurry?" Zeng Yunyi was silent for a long time, and suddenly such a sentence came out.
Xie Shi blinked, and said with some embarrassment: "You know everything?" ”
"Well, everyone knows that Concubine Qi was embarrassed by the Queen Mother. I don't know what Concubine Qi thinks, the prince of Dingbei and the Song family have already made a marriage, and she actually made a half-cut thing? "Zeng Yunyi obviously doesn't like Concubine Qi's approach." There are few school-age women in the Imperial City, and the Eighth Prince is a picky ......
"Shh Seeing that Zeng Yun was talking more and more, Xie hurriedly stopped him. Zeng Yun saw his mother's panicked appearance, but he laughed, and the two rabbit teeth were exposed, but he didn't have that old-fashioned energy.
"What are you laughing at, girl?" Although Xie and Zeng Yan are in love and have a very happy relationship, the children born are relatively introverted and never like to talk to her about their hearts, which can be said to be the only trouble in Xie's life.
"I know both my mother and my father's thoughts, if I can...... Zeng Yunyi paused, her eyelashes hidden, and most of her worried look was covered, "If it can be done naturally, this is the best, but if he has no intention, we must not force it." ”
"Silly boy." Xie touched Zeng Yun's sideburns, "Although the marriage is the order of your parents, your father is unwilling to wronged you, so I asked you to ask you everything." I drank tea with Mrs. Song that day, and listening to her words, I also had this meaning. ”
"If you get a husband and can raise your eyebrows like your father, you will have no regrets in this life." After Zeng Yunyi finished saying this, both the mother and daughter blushed.
……
The white mist was so annoying that it was impossible to see the girl in the tub. When he walked in with a bucket of hot water month by month, Song Zhi was recuperating in the bathtub, and the green silk wet by the hot water was scattered on his shoulders.
The thick black hair sticks to the soft white skin, and it looks particularly attractive in the thick white mist. Song Zhi has been following Song Ling outside to find all kinds of delicacies during this time, and the whole person has grown a lot taller, so he has raised a soft white and delicate skin and flesh.
Song Zhi's clothes have to be made every once in a while, but fortunately, Xiaozhu has now become Liu Ji's right and left hand, and he will come to tailor Song Zhi every month. It's not because Song Zhi loves beauty, it's just that the buds on his chest are gradually plump, and his waist is becoming more and more slender.
"Xiaozhu don't want to be happy with me." Song Zhi touched the newly made clothes, the embroidery on them was very exquisite, even if Xiaozhu didn't say it, she knew that it was made by Xiaozhu herself.
"Miss, how is this fun?" The soft ruler bypassed Song Zhi's chest, and Xiaozhu wrote down the size in his heart, "The figure of the girl in the capital, no one knows better than those of us who make custom-made clothes." ”
Song Zhi was shy by what she said, and hurriedly talked to the side, "Is the set of clothes I gave to the second lady of the Zeng family ready?" ”
"There's still a pair of buttons on the sleeves that will be done tomorrow. Does Miss want to send it directly to Zeng's Mansion or here first? ”
"You check it for me, so send it to Miss Zeng. Remember, don't be too ostentatious. ”
