"Why are you looking at me like that?" Qi Jing saw that Qin Xun smiled and didn't speak, and gently scratched the tip of his nose.

Qin Xun grabbed his hand and wrapped it in his palm: "I like to see you talking eloquently." As for the content of the chat, he mostly mentioned it casually to see Qi Jing like this, and he didn't really care what Qi Jing thought.

"Okay, then let me write an excerpt, Qin Yushui?"

"Wait, don't delay you for a long time, just wait." Qin Xun let go of his hand and reached over the case to caress half of his cheek, and said coquettishly in a soft voice.

As Miss Guo Wei, the daughter of the household department Shangshu, said that day, Qin Xun lived in Jiangnan for six years, and his speech also brought some Jiangnan accents in Chang'an's official dialect.

He patiently asked, "What?" ”

"You kiss me, kiss me and I'll go to my own amusement, and I won't mess with you until you finish writing the excerpt."

Qi Jing was slightly stunned, smiled, moved the inkstone on the table a few points to the side, leaned over the table like this, and reached out to lift Qin Xun's chin.

Will be approaching, not yet lips, the palace maid Qing Yan into the study door and stand at the door of the blessing: "Tell the hall - uh......"

Qi Jing was calm, and Qin Xun would not panic, but the two had to give up the kiss that was interrupted before it was pasted, and Qin Xun poked out the tip of his tongue and licked the corner of his lips regretfully.

Qi Jingfu sat upright and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"Hey, tell Your Highness, Your Highness the Fifth borrowed a book from Your Highness a few days ago, and I came to return it today, and I am waiting in the outer hall." In the end, she is a well-trained palace maid who has entered the palace since she was a child, Qing Yan quickly adjusted her demeanor, and tried her best to erase the impact picture of Fang Cai entering the door from her mind.

"Let him in."

"Yes."

Qing Yan exited the study door, and Qin Xun asked, "Qi Heng?" ”

Qi Jing nodded, paused and said, "Words call knowledge and action." ”

"Oh? Got a word? Qin Xun raised his eyebrows, "I have the impression that he is not very popular, and I thought that my father would not remember to give him a word until the age of the crown." ”

"I got it." Qi Jing stacked several books on the case, "Father really didn't take care of it, when Zhixing entered the Imperial Library at the age of ten, I thought that I had to call my classmates better." ”

Daqi now has six princes, the eldest son Qi Xuan is allowed to start the word on his own, the second son Qi Xuan is ordered by the emperor to start the word, the fourth son Qi Lang is asked by his mother and queen to give the word to Taixu Zhenren, the fifth son Qi Heng is the third emperor brother Qi Jing to start the word, the sixth son is Qin Xun after returning to Beijing when he first entered the palace, the three or four-year-old little doll that he saw in the imperial garden, and later heard that the name is Qi Yu, and there is no table word.

And the third son, Qi Jing, is now the only prince who was born with the words by the emperor who was his father.

It is no wonder that in the secret gamble of the prince's position, many people put their bets on Qi Jing, compared to the mediocre eldest son Qi Xuan, who is the eldest son, compared to the so-called "doting" of the fourth son Qi Lang who gave good things to play with those who were only attributed to the furniture, the emperor still focused on the third son Qi Jing in official affairs, and even asked Qi Jing to divide government affairs for himself after Qi Jing grew older in recent years, which is quite a meaning of cultivating the prince.

"Ten?" Although the fifth prince Qi Heng encountered a flood in the south because of his unlucky birth, which made the emperor dislike, and because of his strange appearance, he did not enter the Imperial Library since he was a child, Qin Xun did not study with the five princes until the year he left Beijing, but Qi Heng would not be dragged into the Imperial Library until he was ten years old as a prince, right? If I remember correctly, Qi Heng is twelve years old this year, so hasn't he only been studying for two years?

"Because of Zhixing, not long after you left Beijing, there was some accident...... Qi Jing caught a glimpse of Qi Heng having stepped into the door, "I'll talk to you later." ”

Qi Heng's appearance was strange, which was also the reason why Qin Xun only had a few encounters with him but remembered him as a person.

Different from Qin Xun's strange appearance mixed with foreign blood, Qi Heng is an unhealthy anomaly, his mother Wang Jieyu was born with a pale complexion, and her eyebrows are also pale in color, and even more is a snow-white long hair, beautiful and beautiful, but obviously looking at non-healthy people, the emperor met her on a trip, when the picture was novel and amazing, included in the harem, but after she gave birth to the fifth prince Qi Heng and then gradually colded her after the southern flood, presumably it was a novelty that felt that people with such abnormal appearance would incur ominous people.

Qi Heng inherited his mother's pale and sickly appearance, beautiful is lucky, strange but unlucky. Qin Xun looked at the little boy who entered the door with neatly combed snow-white hair, and said secretly in his heart.

The white-haired young man pouted with a faint gentle smile, went to the table and saluted his third emperor brother, and then turned to the red-clothed young man opposite the imperial brother's table, behaving neatly, but not saying a word.

Qin Xun got up and returned the salute with a smile: "The Fifth Highness is tormented, it should be the Weizhi to meet His Highness." ”

Qi Heng shook his head lightly and waved his hand again, as if to indicate that it was okay, and still smiled silently.

Don't speak? Thinking of what Qi Jing said, "there was some accident", Qin Xun immediately understood, did he mean that Qi Heng couldn't speak because of some accident, so it was inconvenient to enter the Imperial Library to study early?

Qi Jing took the book handed back by the fifth brother: "Zhixing, do you want to find another one to bring back today?" ”

Qi Heng nodded, took out a notebook from his sleeve and handed it to Qi Jing, Qi Jing took it and flipped through a few pages, and said with a slight surprise: "This time Zhixing actually made a comment?" ”

Qi Heng nodded again.

Qi Jing stroked his head and praised him: "Reading and thinking, it is very good to take one and three reactions." ”

After receiving praise from his brother, a look of joy appeared on Qi Heng's face, and he bowed down and bowed again, which meant being taught.

Qi Jing got up and went to the bookshelf to pick and choose, and chose one of them for Qi Heng: "You are still young, too obscure and difficult to chew, so let's read this." ”

Qi Heng had no objection, took the book with both hands and put it in his sleeve, and then saluted Qi Jing obediently, and saluted with Qin Xun.

The twelve-year-old Fifth Prince left as quietly and slowly as he came.

"Why can't this kid speak all of a sudden? I don't think I was born with it. Qin Xun sat back in his chair.

Qi Jing also returned to the case and sat down: "Soon after you left Beijing, Zhixing and Immortal both fell into the lake for some reason, at that time it was late autumn and the cool air was heavy, and the body was strong and strong, only a little dyed with wind and cold, Zhixing You know, the body was already weaker, and it burned intermittently for half a month, and after the illness recovered, he lost his speech and became deaf, and the doctor said that Xu was the root of the disease. ”

"It's Qi Lang again, he's really tossed from childhood to adulthood, and I sometimes admire him for so much energy." Qin Xun sneered, "I said, then after this incident, will your father be gone?" ”

Qi Jing pulled out a helpless smile, and the meaning in his expression was very clear.

If it was Qi Lang who was speechless and deaf due to a serious illness, maybe the palace would turn the sky over and implicate some people to death, but it was Qi Heng who was sick and ignored, and the emperor was afraid that it was already God's eyes to think that the fifth son who was sick would pick up his life, and the fourth son who was fighting in the lake together was unharmed, so he didn't have the leisure to blame the cause of the children's fight.

Qin Xun's original snake bite dispute was able to be appeased by the emperor's gift and sent a doctor to the palace to appease, but it was because he was the son of two generals and noblemen, and then the emperor was able to punish Qi Lang and the queen because Qin Xun's mother Lin Chu was not spared, if not, I am afraid it would be over.

Qin Xun looked at Qi Jing and didn't speak, Qi Jing looked at him, and sighed meaningfully: "It's good to be alive." ”

Qi Jing knew that Qin Xun's view of his thoughts was not a lie, Qin Xun obviously wanted to ask Qi Heng whether this serious illness of aphasia and deafness was true or a way to protect himself, but whether it was true or not, for the current Qi Heng, it was a blessing in misfortune that he could still live in this world.

Qin Xun suddenly smiled and said: "Don't talk about this, Qi Jing, you should lock my portrait in and out of your study, if this is for people to see, the ghost can't see that you like me." "He is unscrupulous, and Qi Jing still needs to be scrupulous.

Qi Jing frowned: "It's not that you don't dare to show it, it's just that you don't want others to see your appearance." In these years, when Jiangnan meets each other, only you and me, even if I leave you on paper, only you and I can see it, so what is it for others to see? ”

"Okay, you're right." Qin Xun unconsciously pointed at the table with his fingers, "But since you and I meet in Jiangnan, I see that those paintings are all me, why don't you paint yourself into them?" ”

"I don't have ...... Preference for self-painting. Qi Jing thought about painting himself by himself, and he always felt weird, but after Qin Xun said it, he continued to add, "If you like it, I can try one or two in the future." ”

"It's okay, it's okay, I'll mention it casually, anyway, you and I are facing each other all day long, what do you want to do with the portrait?" Qin Xun got up and walked around the table to Qi Jing's side, picked up his chin and pecked him on the cool lips, and said with a smile, "You're busy, I'm afraid that I can't help but trouble you when I stay here, go there for a while." He lit the swing under the big locust tree a few feet away from the window.

Going around the palace gate, Qin Xun and Qing Yan met each other, remembering that Qi Jing told her to plant the red bean, curiosity rose, so she smiled and asked: "Sister Qing Yan, but planted my precious red bean?" Would you like to take me to see it? ”

Qing Yan blessed the blessed body: "I haven't put the soil yet, now it's not the season for red bean sowing, I'm afraid that it will be difficult to plant and live, so I asked the palace people who take care of the garden in the palace to take it to germinate first." If the third son of Qin wants to see it, please come with the slave maid. She took Qin Xun to a well-lit room, in addition to his red beans that were temporarily soaked in warm water, there were also a lot of plant sprouts in the house, and I think it was also in this room that they were cultivated to be planted in the garden.

Qing Yan has been waiting by Qi Jing's side for more than ten years, and she can feel Qi Jing's mind a lot, even if His Royal Highness only said "plant it for fun", she also understands that since the third prince of Qin brought this red bean, how can it really make people interesting, it must be to call the palace people to be good for raw materials.

Qing Yan looked at Qin Xun around the bowl soaked in red beans, looked left and right, looked at the novel appearance, hesitated for a while, and called: "Third Prince Qin." ”

"Huh?"

"How could the third prince be so idle and pick up such a red bean to bring to Jingyang Palace? His Royal Highness is also very strange, and he wants to plant this red bean. ”

Qin Xun said casually: "Xu wants to plant and eat, when it is ripe and fruitful, make some red bean cake to eat, and it is a pastime." ”

"The Third Son." Qing Yan sighed, "The slave has also read poetry books to some extent. ”
