Chapter 51: The Game
Seeing that the time of the early dynasty is approaching, Princess Yi's heart is gradually becoming anxious, in recent years, the husband's power in the court has slowly declined, and now the prince is in control of the government, if the husband does not participate in the court for a long time, he is afraid that he will leave a truth, and the prince will take the opportunity to suppress the husband, and the day will only be more difficult.
But when he went in directly and was afraid of bumping into his husband, when he was at a loss, the servant suddenly came to report that there was a pair of sisters and brothers at the door who asked to see Princess Yi.
This early in the morning, and at this time, how could Princess Yi have the heart to meet her.
"What sibling? This princess is not free now, so let's send it away! ”
The house slave bowed down, smiled cautiously and said, "They said that the little young master's boy riding a white elephant jacket was made by them!" The princess once asked them if they would like to come to the mansion to do things! ”
"It turned out to be them! That's the thing! However, this princess has not officially responded to them, how did they find the door by themselves? ”
"Look at them as if they have experienced a catastrophe, the two children's faces are snow-white, and there are blood stains on their bodies!"
"Oh!" The princess replied softly, her fingers like onion roots, pinched the complicated patterns on the cuffs, and pondered for a moment: "You take some food for them first, let them wait at the door, and I'll ask the prince to come again." ”
With that, he was already heading to the study.
The sky was not fully open, the doors and windows of the study were closed, and when Princess Yi pushed the door in, she only felt that the whole study was depressed and quiet.
And King Yi was sitting upright on the round chair, his face was also solemn, and his eyes fell on the bookcase.
The contradiction in his heart made his heart sway from side to side like a lantern under the porch.
Princess Yi hesitated slightly, knowing in her heart that her husband must be tired of the affairs of the court again! But he didn't ask directly, just smiled softly, and said softly: "The prince hasn't left yet?" The concubine happens to have something she wants to ask her husband? ”
"What's the matter?" King Yi's gaze didn't flow for half a minute, and the three words floated out as lightly as a breath in his throat, and he couldn't hear a single weight.
"Does the prince still remember Nansheng's boy white elephant short jacket?" The princess's face was a little embarrassed, but she still had a smile that warmed people's hearts, and she deliberately put the word Nansheng more seriously.
"Remember! What's wrong? Speaking of the child, King Yi's gaze finally had some warmth, and he looked up at his wife, "This king seems to have said that you should invite the embroidered girl to work in the house!" ”
Thinking of the person last night and his purpose of inviting the embroidered girl, King Yi felt that it was the beginning of a gamble, and this gamble was not a dealer, but a bettor.
Thinking of this, his thick eyebrows frowned, and a Sichuan character twisted out of his eyebrows!
"How? Would she like to come to the house? King Yi didn't know why he still asked this sentence, maybe it was the reason why Princess Yi mentioned Nansheng just now, and he still didn't dare to let that newborn life risk without being completely sure.
Princess Yi's eyes flashed, and the smile on her face was naturally a lot, and Luo Skirt had slowly walked in front of King Yi, infinitely gentle: "The concubine went to look for her before, but she happened not to say that she went to another house to do embroidery work, and then sent someone to go twice and finally found her!" ”
Raising his hand, he gently helped King Yi sort out the somewhat messy bookcase, but he didn't touch the book.
"But she has a brother! She can't let it go! ”
Princess Yi's gentle words are like pulling homely, such a cold winter morning, Princess Yi's eloquent words add a tranquility to the silent study, and the roundabout of King Yi's eyebrows slowly unfolds a little.
"How old is her brother?" King Yi raised his eyes and gently took his wife's hand, and saw a red glow fly on his wife's face.
"Probably twelve or thirteen years old! I saw it last time I went, and it was very handsome. ”
"Nansheng should also study next year, and it is time to find a companion to study in advance." King Yi's fingers slid down gently, stroking the twig pattern on the fold, and his eyes suddenly lit up for a long time, as if a lightning bolt in the chaos tore out a hole, and he saw the clear world behind the fog.
Even his tone relaxed: "Just let their sister and brother stay in the mansion!" Tell the embroidery girl to embroider a picture of the spring of a hundred children before February of the new year! ”
"Hundred sons play spring?" The princess was stunned when she heard this, and soon understood that the day of the princess's birth happened to be in February.
"Why don't you have enough time?"
"For four months, it's okay to have no distractions and help from the girls in the house!"
"In that case, this matter will be handed over to the princess!" King Yi got up, his eyebrows stretched, and even the corners of his mouth smiled.
He took the fold on the table and walked out as he said, "It's not early!" This king is in a hurry to go to the early dynasty! ”
The corners of the clothes swept over the vermilion threshold and brought a gentle wind, blowing away Princess Yi's smile, and the worry in her heart was finally put down again.
I don't know when his heart will be shaken next time?
And King Yi went all the way out of the palace, ready to take a sedan chair away, but saw two thin figures shrinking in the corner of the gate, a woman holding a child about ten years old tightly in her arms, both of them were pale and bloodless.
The woman's face was beautiful but her hair was messy, and there were blood stains on the side of her dress, and the child was also handsome, but she hid in the woman's arms and shivered, and her eyes looked around in horror, as if she was frightened.
The woman kept stroking the child's face, as if to comfort her.
It was not surprising that there were a few beggars on the street, but King Yi couldn't help but "chuckle" when he looked at the child's appearance.
That face is so familiar, after exploring it in his memories, King Yi couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, that face was the face of Su Boyi's eldest son Su Wenxi many years ago!
But the age doesn't look like it, and even if it is Su Boyi's child, the youngest son was killed on the spot by the killer, and his brain is all gone, and there is no chance of survival.
"I guess I'm thinking too much!" King Yi stroked his forehead, retracted his eyes and simply got into the soft sedan chair.
The squeaking of the sedan chair and the sound of the sedan chair man's soles rubbing against the stone slabs came rhythmically, and King Yi held the book tightly in his hand, and a sneer hung on the corner of his lips in the car where no one was.
He wants to change from a bettor to a dealer in charge of winning and losing, and he will first go according to his own pre-set settings, or play a few good cards with the prince first, which is both a show of favor and a demagoguery.
If what that person said last night was really capable, then after April, the household department was taken down, even if he was turning against the prince at that time, it would not be too late.
Fortunately, I didn't show an obvious anti-prince heart last night! Thinking of this, King Yi breathed a sigh of relief.
