Chapter 374: He's Coming
At night, Yayu returned to his palace, and Gou Jian had already gone to bed.
"I heard that the queen has chosen the person to teach in person today?" Gou Jian lay on the bed and asked.
After Yayu finished bathing, she only wore a undergarment, and sat under the lamp and candle next to the bed and looked at the bamboo scroll carefully.
"Yes, it's already chosen." She said.
Gou Jian said: "The widow thought that the queen was going to observe for a few days, but she didn't want to choose it directly, which was surprising." Gou Jian said, stopped to look at Yayu, and said after a while: "I don't know which woman can be so favored by the queen?" It's definitely not a mortal thing. ”
Queen Yue looked at the bamboo roll and fixed her gaze, and then continued to look: "The king is tired, I'll just worry about these things." ”
Gou Jian looked at Yayu and wanted to say a few more words softly. Yayu had already turned his head and looked at Gou Jian, extremely serious: "Don't the king believe me?" ”
Gou Jian choked and changed his posture uncomfortably: "Naturally, I believe in the queen." ”
Yayu didn't speak, just looked at Gou Jian with a solemn gaze. Seeing this, Gou Jian sat up and quickly patted Yayu's back, and coaxed: "I'm just asking, don't be angry, the queen." ”
Yayu's face was a little pale, and he turned his head and continued to look at the bamboo scroll in his hand.
In this way, Shi Yiguang followed Queen Yue Yayu and began to learn. I study the same as all women. There is no distinction and no stupidity. Only a little outstanding talent and comprehension.
Queen Yue didn't find it difficult to teach, nor did she find it easy to teach.
The only difference from the other nine women was that Shi Yiguang lived in a separate and isolated palace at the request of Queen Yue.
Every day, except for the maid who serves and the elegant fish who teaches, I can't see a second person.
Even in the palace, Shi Yiguang, at the request of Queen Yue, wore a veil to cover his face all day long. It's just that I accidentally saw one or two of Shi Yi's faces. The more you can't see it, the more curious you become, and the more curious you are, the more mysterious it becomes. The one or two I saw were spread outside, and the beauty of the Xi Shi girl somehow spread all over this Yue Palace.
However, none of this can affect Shi Yiguang. She remained in the house, repeating her daily routine.
In the autumn, Goujian, the king of Yue, who was farming and asking civil affairs in foreign affairs, finally returned to the palace. Soon after the ten beauties entered the palace in the summer, Yayu, the queen of Yue, persuaded him to go to various parts of the Yue country to inspect the people's feelings. This time and again, it is the time of one season.
Shi Yiguang didn't know exactly what day Gou Jian came back, but she only heard the sound of pedestrians talking outside, and she knew that Gou Jian was back.
At this moment, Shi Yiguang was standing in the room cutting calendula. She was the only one in the room. The only maid who served her was at the door. Don't let outsiders in.
On the table is a blue-glazed vase. There were many scattered branches next to the vase. The maid had just gone to the garden to pick it for her. Shi Yi had a veil on his face, bent slightly, and cut marigold branches. One by one, they are put into the vase.
On an autumn afternoon, having a meal for a while, sitting quietly on the threshold is always easy to make people sleepy.
The little maid yawned. Slowly lowered his body and sat down on the threshold. With his elbows on his knees, he propped his head and yawned again. She looked up at the sky with faint clouds. The autumn day is crisp and windy. Her eyelids began to heavily.
Close your eyes. She told herself, just for a moment. Anyway, this Shih Tzu girl has a very good temper, and she has never been scolded by her when she often takes a nap when she guards the door.
Just for a moment, the maid thought to herself. So he leaned against the doorway and slowly closed his eyes.
The maid's breathing sounded steadily. Shi Yiguang's face did not change, and he continued to cut the flower branches. I didn't get angry because the servant dozed off.
The hall was very quiet, and the sound of birdsong could be heard outside.
Half an hour later, there was a soft, footstep sound outside the house. The sound of stepping on the ground is calm and powerful. After taking two steps, he stopped, and then got up again. Stop and stop. Stop and go, and finally stand outside the window of the palace.
There was only one sound of footsteps.
Shi Yiguang lowered his eyebrows and looked at the marigolds pruned in his hands. The sound of the maid's breathing on the threshold was still steady.
She had waited so long for her to finally come.
There was an inaudible creaking sound from the window. Shi Yiguang held the calendula in his hand, turned to the side of the blue glaze bottle, and inserted it. He turned his face to the window, his head bowed.
There was no movement outside the window, only the sound of cautious breathing. She knew that he was a martial artist. Shi Yiguang picked up the scissors again and cut off a leaf that sprouted out.
Then he raised his hand and gently removed the veil from his face. She heard gasps outside the window. If you haven't heard of it.
Putting down the veil in her hand, she took a closer look at the bouquet of marigolds in the bottle. bent the corners of his eyes, and his voice was as soft as summer catkins, soft and sultry: "It's really beautiful." She said, picking up the bottle.
A smile bloomed, and she heard the window clash visibly close. Shi Yiguang smiled and turned his head to look at the window. With a puzzled face, the next moment, outside the temple door next to the window, stepped into the man she had been waiting for for many days. Yue Wang Goujian.
Seeing the comer, Shi Yiguang's face changed, and he retreated in surprise, knocking down the high case behind him. A blue-glazed vase containing marigolds on the desk is poured. In an instant, it was about to fall to the ground and shatter.
Gou Jian flew forward, and took the vase that almost touched the ground with low risk. The vase escaped and did not break. But the calendula in the vase was scattered.
Gou Jian stood up with the vase, walked around Shi Yiguang with both hands, and placed it on the high desk close behind her.
"The girl was so careless." He smiled, his eyes staring at Shi Yiguang's face motionlessly.
Shi Yiguang looked at Gou Jian, who was close at hand, and his left hand was still wrapped around her waist because of the posture of placing a vase. She stepped back, but there was no way back. I had to swallow my saliva nervously, looking at Gou Jian with fear, and my eyes were full of tears.
The eyes that were already watery were put on with clear tears, and this glance made Gou Jian's heart happy.
"Beauty don't cry, don't cry, it's the fault of the widow." Gou Jian stretched out his hand and couldn't help but want to keep Shi Yiguang's coaxing, Shi Yiguang turned to the side and quietly avoided Gou Jian's embrace. With tears in his eyes, he knelt down and saluted.
"The people's daughter Shi Yiguang, I didn't know that the king came, and I didn't greet each other and lost my courtesy, which is the fault of the people's daughter." Shi Yiguang knelt down as he spoke.
Gou Jian had already helped her up quickly.
"Miss Shih Tzu, please get up quickly."
Shi Yiguang stood up in accordance with Gou Jian's movements, took half a step back, leaned on the high platform next to him, and propped his hands on the table. Next to the hand is the scissors that cut the branches.
"Don't blame the girl, it's the widow who came uninvited." Gou Jian said, taking a step closer to Shi Yiguang.
This time, Shi Yiguang did not retreat. Then he lowered his head, bit his lip, and wept, and on the other side, his right hand slowly covered the scissors.
