Chapter 212: Rival in Love
After returning from Li's house, Shaohua always felt in a trance, and he dreamed of wandering in darkness for several days. I vaguely saw a vague figure, the figure should be a young girl, but I don't know why Shaohua has an uncontrollable fear of her existence. But every time I woke up, I couldn't remember anything, only the uneasy panic.
Yan Kaizhi saw that she was always listless, thinking that it was because she felt too much pressure to let her enter the palace to marry, and was about to refuse for her, but Shaohua shook his head and rejected his kindness. Although she doesn't like this kind of pompous and clichΓ©d etiquette, not everyone has the opportunity, just like Zhou Yan told her, her current identity is not only herself, but also Yan Kaizhi's face, and the entire Xingyong Marquis Mansion.
I never thought that marrying Yan Kaizhi would have so many incidental troubles and responsibilities, but always when she was overwhelmed, when she turned her head, she could see Yan Kaizhi's calm side face standing side by side with her, as well as the peace of mind from his warm palm.
Shaohua decided to sweep away all the gloom and find something for himself to distract himself.
"Madam, Master Hou has instructed that when he is away, no one can enter the study." A simple-looking and honest maid came over to block Shaohua's way, although she knew that the person in front of her was the mistress of this mansion, but she couldn't help but listen to Hou Ye's words.
Youhan was a little dissatisfied with her attitude, and was about to start speaking, but Shaohua waved her hand to stop. She looked at the maid's appearance, looking at her simple appearance, at most she was delicate, but her eyes were unexpectedly firm. "I'm just going in and writing a word, I won't flip anything, Master Hou knows it, if you don't feel at ease, you can follow up and see." Shaohua understood Yan Kaizhi's intentions, and let such a brainless and not beautiful maid guard the study, he was relieved, and Shaohua was reassured.
Hearing Shaohua say this, the maid was embarrassed, and hurriedly bowed her head, "The slave doesn't dare, then the lady should go in, don't touch other things, otherwise the Hou Ye will scold me." "How could she not know that the relationship between Master Hou and Mrs. is good, but unfortunately she is a slave, and she is just following her fate.
Shaohua nodded, so that Youhan didn't have to go in with her, since Yan Kaizhi didn't want others to come in, then she wouldn't embarrass the maid.
She doesn't like to read, Yan Kaizhi is a martial artist, and there are not many books in the study. In the past, when she was upset, she would go out for horseback riding and run around like crazy. Later, when she was in the Li family, Mama Rong warned her not to show her cloud scroll body in front of too many people, and in order to pretend to be a deep lady in front of others, she could only occasionally pluck the strings and make a show.
The last time I saw this square bookcase in Yan Kaizhi's study, Shaohua almost fell in love with it at a glance, it was shiny and smooth, which made people feel like they wanted to scold Fang Xuan on the bookcase. So I thought that the previous portrait secretly painted with Yan Kaizhi on my back was not finished, so I planned to finish the painting, but I didn't expect Yan Kaizhi to let people guard the study and not let him enter.
I thought it was probably because he had been in and out of the palace a lot recently, and he was afraid that he would leak some news.
It is said that the Houmen is as deep as the sea, and the palace gate is even more unpredictable, Shaohua thought that she was lucky enough to enter the palace twice in a row, which scared her a lot, and thought that if she could, she would never want to enter the palace again in her life. Even if the world compares the palace to such a gorgeous scenery, in her opinion, it is always just a beautiful golden wire cage. Just like the Empress Dowager He, what if one person is above ten thousand people, the huge dormitory, the cold window, I don't know if I will be scared when I wake up in the middle of the night.
While looking for the portrait she hid, Shaohua felt that her ideas were ridiculous, and her personal pursuits were different, so she was worried about Empress Dowager He.
Finally touched a roll of drawing paper in the vase, she gently pulled it out, in order not to let Yan Kaizhi find out that she was secretly drawing him, this place was an excellent hiding place that she had thought about for a long time. But unexpectedly, she reached into the vase and found two rolls of drawing paper.
She remembered that she put one volume in it later, how could there be two volumes, could it be that Yan Kaizhi also hid something?
Shaohua compared the two rolls of drawing paper, and it was obvious that the color of one of the scrolls had turned yellow, and she secretly looked outside the door and saw Youhan chatting with the maid who was guarding the study. So, she quietly ripped off the frenulum and opened the yellowed scroll, but the portrait that appeared in her eyes startled her.
If the person in the portrait is real, then what kind of stunning look it should be, with light brown but dark blonde hair, tied up with only one ribbon, waist-length hair as if there is no wind. A pair of amber eyes flow like cold stars, the corners of the eyes seem to pour out all kinds of style, a red heavenly veil will line her white skin like jade more crystal clear, the slender waist that Yingying grasps, like a spring willow, and like a spirit snake enchanting. The beauty has a graceful posture and dexterous movements, as if she is dancing, and half of her jade feet are secretly exposed under the red skirt, revealing her lively and agile under her charm.
It is said that the beauty is picturesque, but the person in this painting seems to be about to come out of the scroll, which makes people want to live with her in the painting.
If it were someone else, he would definitely be amazed by the person in this painting, but Shaohua just raised the corners of his mouth slightly, as if relieved and painful. She reached out and stroked the face of the beauty of the scroll, a face she couldn't have been more familiar with, and she had lived on it for at least seventeen years. The picture scroll was rubbed a little smooth, and it could be seen that it was often opened, remembering that I had heard others say that Yan Kaizhi's sweetheart was a married woman.
Looking at the people in the scroll, Shaohua is a little sour, even if the person in the scroll is herself, but she can't go back. should have been secretly happy that Yan Kaizhi had never let go of his feelings for her for so many years, but when he thought that he was no longer such a beautiful woman, he couldn't help but wonder who Yan Kaizhi liked in his heart.
"Who made you move!" A voice as cold as the moon and the cold winter startled Shaohua, she hurriedly turned around, just in time to see Yan Kaizhi's face was blue, and the maid kneeling and trembling outside the window.
Shaohua was about to explain, but Yan Kaizhi strode over and snatched the scroll from her hand, his tone full of anger. He didn't look at Shaohua, but just raised his voice and said angrily to the maid outside: "How I confessed, I forgot it, drag it down to the family law, and no one is allowed to intercede." β
was stunned by Yan Kaizhi's family law, Shaohua was stunned, it was the first time he heard Yan Kaizhi so angry to punish a girl. But she looked at a picture scroll, but she didn't speak, Yan Kaizhi was angry. Besides, it seems that he is punishing the maid, but it is obviously aimed at Shaohua.
"Wait a minute, don't touch her." Shaohua watched Yingjiu drag away the frightened maid, hurriedly walked out and shouted, seeing the maid's panicked eyes, Shaohua felt that there was fire in her heart, and turned around to see Yan Kaizhi carefully putting away the scroll, she sank her emotions. "I'm coming in, it's none of her business, let her go."
Yan Kaizhi glanced at Shaohua, it was a look that made Shaohua's heart cold, the first time he was looked at like this, his heart was a little empty.
Perhaps thinking that his reaction was too intense, he paused for a moment before saying: "The family law can be avoided, locked up in the firewood room, and wait for the fate." β
Finally freed from the pain of flesh and skin, the maid was so grateful that she kowtowed on the spot, and then was dragged away by Yingjiu. Youhan was also frightened by Yan Kaizhi's roar in her heart, looking at the atmosphere of the two people in the room, she should let them talk about it in a funny way, but she couldn't help but worry that Yan Kaizhi would hurt Shaohua in a fit of anger.
"I didn't mean to peek at your stuff, I just didn't expect you to put the scroll in there too." Shaohua knew that he was at fault first, and bowed his head to apologize to him.
Yan Kaizhi's gaze fell on the other scroll on the table, which was regarded as acquiescing to Shaohua's words, but when he came in, when he saw Shaohua really staring at Xin Zimo's scroll in a daze, there was suddenly a sense of humiliation that had hidden many secrets and was revealed in public. He didn't think about it for a while, and immediately rushed in, if it weren't for Shaohua's frightened face, he was really afraid that he would hurt her by mistake.
"You are not allowed to touch my things again!" Yan Kaizhi couldn't speak, and said coldly.
thought that Yan Kaizhi should be relieved if he explained it clearly, but his cold warning made Shaohua feel pain in his heart. It seems that the previous love and intimacy are all passing clouds, and she was amused for eating her own jealousy just now, but when she heard Yan Kaizhi's words, she suddenly had a feeling that in fact, Yan Kaizhi only had the Xin Zimo who was alluring to the country and the city, and only the stunning skin.
She took a deep breath and forcibly endured the discomfort in her heart, "It's just a dead person, a woman who doesn't belong to you, do you take her so seriously?" β
As soon as the words came out, Shaohua regretted it, in fact, she didn't mean to stimulate Yan Kaizhi, but she thought that Yan Kaizhi liked Xin Zimo, not her. That awkward feeling can't be turned around, maybe she is now telling Yan Kaizhi that she is Xin Zimo, and she will definitely be regarded as delusional.
Sure enough, when Yan Kaizhi heard this, the anger that he could not easily restrain suddenly burned his reason, he stared at Shaohua's stubborn face, gritted his teeth and said, "It's none of your business." β
Shaohua sneered, but there was some pain in his heart. "Why don't you close it, I'm your wife."
Yan Kaizhi was a little irritated by her mocking laughter, and put aside a cruel sentence, "Then just do your wife's duty." He took a deep breath, forgetting what he was in such a hurry to come back for, and he was about to leave.
"Yan Kaizhi, you stop for me!" Shaohua shouted at his back. "Just for a portrait, are you going to lose your temper with me!"
Yan Kaizhi leaned over and looked at her little face that wanted to cry, he didn't say a word for a long time, and strode out, he knew in his heart that if he opened his mouth at this time, no matter what he said, it would hurt people.
He didn't want to be so fierce to Shaohua, but when the words came to his mouth, he couldn't stop them and already said them. Xin Zimo was a deep pain in his heart, especially when he thought of what You Ning had said to him, he couldn't get rid of that stunning and sad look in his mind. Thinking of her unexpected death, Yan Kaizhi couldn't wait to kill herself to apologize, she had waited for so many years, and when she waited for such a result, what kind of desperation forced her to die.
"Ouch!" At the same time as a Jiao Hu remembered, Yan Kai's eyes quickly pulled the person up to avoid the pain of falling.
"Are you alright?" Yan Kaizhi couldn't help frowning when he looked at the person who was frightened and grabbed his front placket. He was full of messy thoughts all the way, but he didn't expect to bump into someone as soon as he went out, and he felt indebted in his heart, and he was unhappy that the strange woman was so close to him.
"No, it's fine." I thought I would fall hard, but I didn't expect to be pulled up, and when I looked up, I saw that he was a handsome and elegant Langjun. The girl couldn't help blushing and shook it slightly.
"It's okay, walk carefully." Yan Kaizhi pulled his clothes out of her hand, didn't even look at her, strode forward, jumped on the horse, and walked away.
Leaving the girl with a blank face, looking at his dusty figure, she couldn't help but be stunned. If it weren't for the little maid who chased after her and ran over to greet her, maybe she would have stood down in a daze, looked back at the plaque of the Marquis of Xingyong's mansion, and said, "It turns out that you are Yan Kaizhi." β
