Concubine Cui hurriedly got up and said, "Lord, you can come back, Miss Gao has been waiting for you for a long time." ”

Obviously, I just waited for a while, okay, Gao Shiman didn't say anything, the side concubine got up, she couldn't sit still, she stood up and squinted her eyes and smiled: "The side concubine is clever, she just said that you will come back in a while, and as soon as the words fell, you will come back!" ”

Li Ling didn't want to stay at Concubine Cui's place, he said with a light smile on his face: "What are you looking for me?" Let's go, go to my side and say", and after saying that, he prepared to go out.

Gao Shiman pulled him and smiled: "I'm not looking for you, I'm here to find Meng Qi, you stay at the side concubine and talk, is Meng Qi outside?" I went to find him. ”

After speaking, she turned her head and winked at Concubine Cui, who was stunned for a moment, then reacted and smiled knowingly.

Although Li Ling didn't see Gao Shiman's expression, he understood a little bit when he saw Cui's expression, and he was a little depressed in his heart, and he couldn't say anything, so he had to sit down and watch Gao Shiman go out. When she went out, Li Ling asked, "What are you talking about with Shiman, why is this king so happy to see her?" ”

The concubine smiled: "What did Miss Gao say when she passed by the garden, she could let the peony flowers bear different colors on the same plant, the concubine was very strange to hear, she only said that when the weather is warm, she will come to this garden to help me serve those peonies; Later, she said that she asked her concubine to help her draw, but before she could respond, you came back. ”

Li Ling felt strange in his heart, it was rare for the Cui family to see him, so he smiled and said: "The concubine asked people to make another pot of hot tea, and the prince should sit here and rest for a while!" She was about to call someone, but Li Ling got up and said, "This king still has something to do, go first", and left.

Cui's heart was gloomy, looking at Li Ling's back as he went out, and sighed secretly, Li Ling didn't talk much, she didn't talk much, but Li Ling always treated her lightly, she was a side concubine in this palace, it was said that there was no tigress in the mountains, she could be the king, but she really didn't feel how happy she was, she just wanted to know how to win King Qi's heart.

Gao Shiman didn't know that the relationship between the two was not deep, she went out and saw Meng Qi standing outside, and hurriedly trotted up and said, "Let's find a place to talk!" ”

Meng Qi explained to others, and walked outside with Gao Shiman, there was no visible expression on Gao Shiman's face, Meng Qi was worried in his heart, and he was beating a drum in his heart, it seemed that things were not going well.

took her to a warm pavilion and sat down, Meng Qi couldn't wait to say, "Miss Gao, how is Steward Qian's attitude?" In his subconscious, the biggest obstacle should be Qian Daoyi, right? Gao Shiman was amused when he heard this, and he still pretended to be regretful on his face and said, "Uncle Qian also agreed......"

Meng Qi was happy in his heart, the order of his parents, the words of the matchmaker, he was considered to have passed a big hurdle, but Gao Shiman continued: "But there is always a pimple in Min's heart, she only said that she is already unclean, and she is really not worthy of you, let Uncle Qian and I persuade me to keep silent, I am really embarrassed......

"Didn't you tell her I didn't mind?" Meng Qi looked at her with wide eyes.

Gao Shiman almost couldn't hold back and wanted to laugh again, and endured it for a long time before he said: "It's the same woman, I empathize, it's because she also likes you, so she has some concerns." After speaking, he deliberately looked at Meng Qi.

Meng Qi was stunned for a while before he said, "How do you say this?" ”

"If she doesn't like you, but she doesn't plan to be a nun in this life, someone asks for a kiss, of course she agrees, it is precisely because she has special feelings for you, so she ...... She probably thinks she can't hurt you, right? It is precisely because she cares about you and cherishes you that she hopes that you can find a woman who is pure and jade to accompany you......" Gao Shiman fooled Meng Qi to his heart's content, completely ignoring the fact that although he was twenty-five years old, he didn't know anything about affairs.

Meng Qi's eyes were split, thinking that Min Zhi was also in love with him, but he didn't dare to accept his feelings because of Chang Yuhong's injury, so he hated the people of the Chang family very much. Gao Shiman observed the change in his expression and was quite satisfied with his performance. Meng Qi endured it and said, "How can that be?" Please teach me, Miss! ”

Gao Shiman pretended to think about it and said, "In this way, you go and ask her again, just say that you don't mind her past, and you are willing to marry her, and see if she will change her mind?" If she is willing to open up and tell you about the matter between her and Chang Wangba, then it means that she believes in you. As the saying goes, a good woman is afraid of pestering a man, so you pestering her and pestering her, and she promises to marry you. ”

"Good women are afraid of pestering men?" Meng Qi was inexplicable.

"Stupid you, a good woman is most afraid of a man pestering her, and it is easy to agree to the other party's request, she refuses, and you don't let go; She refused you again and still didn't let go, and the third time she promised to answer you. Gao Shiman enthusiastically gave Meng Qi a face-to-face lecture.

Meng Qi kept nodding, didn't he just make himself thick-skinned, and he said gratefully: "Thank you, Miss!" I'm going to find her! ”

Meng Qi said to go, he walked out of the Warm Pavilion and was about to go to Li Ling to say something, but found that Li Ling was not far from the Warm Pavilion. Meng Qi said hello and hurriedly went to pursue his happiness, Li Ling went straight to the warm pavilion, and as soon as he arrived at the door, he saw Gao Shiman sitting there smiling. A ripple appeared in his eyes, and he stepped forward to sit beside her and said, "How did you coax Meng Qi again?" ”

"Again?" Gao Shiman couldn't stop laughing and said, "When have I ever lied to someone?" And coaxed again, besides, is he rich or sexual, what am I trying to coax him to do? ”

Li Ling looked at her silently, and saw that her eyebrows and eyes were crooked when she smiled, and the lying silkworms under her eyes became more and more obvious, which made her more and more kind and lovely. He thought about Gao Shiman's cute appearance of pretending to eat maggots and making everyone gag when he treated him, and the corners of his mouth gradually hooked.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Gao Shiman stopped laughing and said: "You don't work for the benefit of your people, I work hard for him, do you still have an opinion?" ”

"Yes, why doesn't Qian Minzhi want to marry him?" In his opinion, the people around him are good and have nothing to say, not to mention that they are worthy of that Minzhi, even if they are worthy of this young lady from a famous family in Beijing, they didn't expect that Qian Minzhi would refuse.

Gao Shiman paused, she would definitely not say anything about Minzhi when she saw someone, pursed her lips and said perfunctorily: "Girl, of course, she is reserved, how can people agree to it as soon as she says it, as if she is not worth cherishing." ”

Li Ling looked at her steadily: "What about you?" ”

"I ......" Gao Shiman was stunned for a moment, since Li Ling kissed her last time, she had already refused once, she was already Shen Lixing's marriage partner, but she didn't want to entangle with others anymore, otherwise when would her plan to marry Su Qian be realized.

Looking at her stupid appearance, Li Ling couldn't take his eyes off it, Gao Shiman secretly said that he owed it, why did he say those words, his heart was in a hurry, Li Ling should have affection for her, probably because he saved him by accident, she doesn't like a man who is sullen and doesn't like to talk, this person in front of her belongs to this category.

Li Ling is her ally, and she is a friend worthy of her cherishment, she has never had too many reservations about her friends, and she will not hide anything from her friends. Not to mention that she doesn't like Li Ling, now that she has made a marriage with Shen Lixing on the surface, it is unknown what will happen in the future, she doesn't want to make extraneous branches, if she provokes Li Ling again, so that Shen Lixing and Shen Lixing will become inseparable, then she will be too guilty.

She and Shen Lixing had signed a letter of separation, Qin Er knew it, and the eighty percent in front of her should also know, she decided to make it clear to Li Ling, it would be no good for anyone to be entangled. So she looked at him and said, "I already have someone I like in my heart, and I can't tolerate anyone else." You and I are friends, I don't want to hide from you, let alone hurt you, you already have a side concubine, and there will be a concubine in the future, we have no possibility at all. You must be grateful to me, but you treat it as a love between a man and a woman, and from now on, you must set things right, or I will never see you again. ”

Her face was full of sincerity, but Li Ling was like an ice cave. He would rather she say nothing than listen to her refusal. Who can say for sure what will come? Maybe if he tried harder, the little woman in front of him might like him, and now his only hope was categorically extinguished by her, and his heart ached. But his self-esteem did not allow him to change in the slightest, and he could only remain silent.

Gao Shiman saw that he didn't respond, and knew that the other party didn't like to listen to his words, so she softened her voice and said, "Your Highness, you deserve a better person, I ...... I'm overbearing, I'm jealous, anyway, I'm ...... I am not as good as you think, the Buddha said: 'There are eight sufferings in life, birth, old age, sickness, death, love and separation, resentment for a long time, can't ask for it, can't let go', now you are in this whirlpool, and when you see through it, think about it, then you will forget it, let it go. The world is like this, with a simple mood, look at the complex life, take the bumpy road, if you are simple, then the world is simple for you, you don't think too much......"

Listening to her preaching to herself, Li Ling suddenly wanted to laugh, if he didn't open his mouth at this time, the embarrassment would not be able to be broken, maybe the person in front of him would really no longer care about himself in the future, and he smiled after enduring it: "Yes, you have understood this Buddha's teachings, at a young age, and you don't know who to learn from, you can really speak well, I believe you are." ”

Gao Shiman breathed a sigh of relief, if Li Ling had a tendon, she really didn't know what to do, she was very satisfied, and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter if I'm young or not, just say it right, that saying it doesn't mean that whether it's a white cat or a black cat, as long as you can catch a mouse, it's a good cat." ”

"As the saying goes?" Li Ling thought about the black cat and white cat that Gao Shiman just said, but he had never heard of it, so he was a little confused.

"Anyway, I don't know what allusion or whose mouth it is, that's as the saying goes", Gao Shiman began to talk again, she can't say that Comrade Xiaoping said it, right?

"Nonsense again", Li Ling pressed the pain in his heart, and smiled lightly at her.

"What nonsense do I have?" Gao Shiman glanced at him, "Didn't Zeng Zi say, I will save my body three times a day?" Confucius also said, clever words make the color fresh and benevolent, how can I talk nonsense? ”

Li Ling heard her open her mouth, remembering Gao Shiman's beautiful counterattack against Kang Shufang last time in Daoxianglou, and couldn't help but wonder: "Have you studied the "Historical Records" and "Analects"? ”

It is not surprising that the Gao family will have this book, some books are only circulated in the scholar class, even if the Gao family has these books, it is difficult to understand without a certain literary foundation, and who will read these books for girls?

Of course, only Gao Shiman knew that in her previous life, when she was in class, the teacher highly admired Zhao Pu's words in the early Song Dynasty that "half of the Analects rules the world", and she read the text and white version of this book with curiosity, and was led by this book to read the "Historical Records", which is a little bit of allusion to her.

Who can see through her past and present life?
