Chapter 155: The Man Without Fault
Huo Ran raised his eyes, Xue Hainiang only dared to peep out of the corner of his eye, and saw that the person who spoke was still hanging his head, and he was persistently reading the mountains of notes on the desk.
"Your Majesty, the tea is already cold, if you drink it again, you are afraid of hurting your stomach, I implore the emperor to give the slave a little time, and the slave and maid immediately cooked the tea soup and served it. Xue Hainiang lowered her head and gave Shi Shiran a salute.
When Nan Jiuxi heard this, his sword eyebrows raised slightly upward, put the wolf pen on the mountain pen stand, and looked at the respectful person for a long time: "Immediately, do you have the tea leaves and tea sets with you?"
Xue Hainiang bowed her head, and her clear and tactful voice was not arrogant or impatient, "Your Majesty, the slave maid went to the pantry as soon as dawn broke, and carefully prepared the tea leaves. And the time is uncertain and irregular, the predecessors who served in the past were as early as the tea seven minutes hot immediately called the sisters in the pantry to cook tea soup for backup, the slave maid foolishly, the emperor's tea is so precious, so it is really a waste. Therefore, the slave maid prepared the tea set and tea leaves early. ”
"I'll give you an hour of tea. Nan Jiuxi Fu picked up the wolf pen that was shelved on the pen stand, and hung the first batch of readings.
Xue Hainiang paced to the right side of the screen, behind the screen was a coffee table, she had already put the tea set there when she came, even the charcoal fire was burning, the purple sand gilt teapot was also filled with tea leaves, poured the water that had been prepared into the teapot, and then put the teapot on the pit.
Before the tea arrived, Xue Hainiang took off the teapot and poured the tea into the teacup that had been washed beforehand.
Walked out with a teacup.
"Please ask the emperor to taste tea. Xue Hainiang put the teacup on the desk and bowed her head.
Nan Jiuxi lifted his eyelids slightly, and his eternal unchanged eyes flashed a trace of surprise, "A cup of tea has not yet arrived......"
Xue Hainiang smiled lightly, "Please ask the emperor to taste tea." ”
Nan Jiuxi picked up the teacup and took a sip, and then slowly put it down, "Elder De, you step back first." ”
De'an glanced at Xue Hainiang with a little astonishment, and for a while he couldn't figure out what kind of thoughts this moody son of heaven was hiding in his heart now.
Although he watched Nan Jiuxi become an adult and ascend to the throne, Nan Jiuxi's obscure thoughts were really not easy for people to spy on.
"Yes. De'an was silent for a while, and finally bowed down.
"Come up and wait for me to grind the ink. Nan Jiuxi glanced at the person who was waiting next to the screen, and said with a smile: "If you don't take the place of Elder De and give me the ink, how can I still review the recital?"
Xue Hainiang was slightly stunned, and then said in a panicked trembling voice: "The slave is afraid that there is a suspicion of interfering in politics......"
Nan Jiuxi raised her eyes and glanced at the slender person kneeling under the Danqi, Xu is charcoal fire in the hall was burning, she was wearing extremely thin clothes, and now the whole person was curled up in one place and leaned over, which made her even more weak and petite.
"Elder De has been studying ink for me for half his life, if it is as you say, he should not have launched the noon gate to behead the public. Nan Jiuxi sneered, and the corners of his lips rose slightly.
Xue Hainiang knew that if she shirked it again, she was only afraid of provoking Nan Jiuxi's displeasure, and besides, she had never thought of disobeying Nan Jiuxi's wishes, and in her previous life, she had been together for more than ten years, how could she not know that he had never liked others to be rebellious.
got up, walked up to the Danqi, walked to the right side of Nan Jiuxi, lightly held the ink ingot, and exerted a slight force on his wrist.
In her previous life, she often studied ink for Nan Jiuxi, and Nan Jiuxi often praised her for her good ink.
Now, he is still standing in this Qinzheng Palace, which is no different from his memory, still standing on his right side, and the scene seems to overlap with his memory.
"How well do you write?"
Suddenly, a mellow and hoarse voice came into her ears, and at that time, Xue Hainiang couldn't hear the mixed meaning.
"How dare the slave and maid look directly at things related to government affairs...... Xue Hainiang hurriedly put down the ink ingot, she originally thought that Nan Jiuxi called her to look at the approval he had just written.
"You're looking at what I'm calling you to see if it's too late to refuse—" His mellow and hoarse voice seemed to be mixed with a hint of a smile.
Xue Hainiang only felt as if there was a line of sight staring directly at her, so she lowered her mind and lifted her eyelids slightly to look at the case.
On the high-quality plain white rice paper, the thick ink is presented on the rice paper with flowing brushstrokes.
The endless peaks, uneven ravines, and the tops of the peaks outline the lush towering ancient trees in ink, and if you look closely, the thick mineral branches seem to be leaning on a thin and thin person. Further up, a round of discs hangs high in the air.
"The emperor's painting work is really wonderful. Xue Hainiang blurted out with admiration.
From the beginning of the study of ink to the present, but just a stick of incense, but within a stick of incense, this Nan Jiuxi can quietly make this landscape painting.
Although it is not comparable to the landscape painting of the palace painter's excellence, it is still the case with a mere stick of incense, if he is given a few days......
Xue Hainiang couldn't help but be speechless.
"I haven't painted for a long time since I ascended the throne—" Nan Jiuxi rubbed his finger bones and leaned on the Taishi's chair with his eyes slightly closed.
"The emperor is busy with government affairs, and he has no time to paint. Xue Hainiang echoed.
He opened his eyes slightly, but the narrow eagle eyes were brewing with Xue Hainiang's indescribable eyes at the moment. Thin lips lightly opened, "Compared to your flattery today, deliberately pandering to the appearance." I like that when you first meet, you don't hold back. ”
Although she can't be said to be open-mouthed, compared to today, her mouth is wrong, she is cautious, and that day can really be called eating the bear's heart and leopard gall.
"Do you remember when you first met the slave and maid?" Xue Hainiang had some ridicule thoughts, and her phoenix eyes were a little cunning, and she continued: "It's not the day when the show girl meets you——"
The dark pupils and benevolent eyes flashed slightly, Nan Jiuxi muttered a thing or two, and then said: "In front of the Chonghua Palace that day, I had a relationship with a plain-shirted woman, but I didn't want to, the plain-clothed woman hadn't seen me yet, so she ran in a hurry, as if she was avoiding a flood and a beast...... Later, I only relied on the plain shadow in my memory to search hard, and only later did I have the fact that I misidentified the talented Su family. If I hadn't confessed my mistake, the person who avoided me like a flood in front of the Chonghua Palace that day was Miss Xue. ”
Hearing this, Xue Hainiang saw the opportunity to lean over and kneel in front of Nan Jiuxi, and said, "That talented person Su is bent on clinging, that day she hid in the dark and happened to witness what happened, so she had the idea of bullying the king, and now she has been punished as she deserves, why should the emperor punish the innocent person again......"
"A person without fault?" Nan Jiuxi was puzzled.
Xue Hainiang couldn't help but sneer. can only sigh that Liang Bairou has never forgotten it, but the ruthless and affectionate emperor in front of her has already forgotten her.
I don't know how Liang Bairou would feel if she knew!
