"Your kung fu is not low, if you were ruthless, now the queen and I would have been lying in the coffin. Looking at Xiao Chi's dodging eyes, Liulishan smiled and spoke softly.

Hearing this, Xiao Chi was shocked again.

"I'm curious why I know, right?" Xiao Chi, who noticed that Xiao Chi on her side finally cast a gaze at her, and Liulishan hooked her red lips and raised a calm smile.

Xiao Chi looked at it, a little in a trance, the glass in front of him was not as cold and arrogant and noble as before. At this moment, she is so quiet and soft that her heart is full.

"I also know that you love someone else. ”

As soon as Liulishan's words came out, Xiao Chi in a trance finally had some reaction, but after she reacted, she stopped directly and looked at Liulishan who walked in front of her in disbelief.

Sensing Xiao Chi's actions, Liulishan also stopped and looked back.

"How does my sister know?" Met Liulishan's gaze, Xiao Chi wanted to dodge, but thinking of Liulishan's words just now, he stiffened his head and asked.

"It's not hard to know. Liulishan smiled and continued to speak: "Luo Ye can know from this what your family is trying to hide, and other people can also know. Falling in love with a man who is a generation older than you is nothing to see in disguise, I just don't understand why your family would consider it a shameful thing. ”

Listening to Liulishan's words, Xiao Chi retracted his gaze and lowered his head.

Although Liulishan didn't feel ashamed of it, her family, including her, felt the same way. But it's one thing to think it, and it's another thing to inevitably fall in love.

"Love is not about age, as long as you love each other, you can be together. If you retreat because of worldly gossip, then I don't think you love it deeply. Looking at Xiao Chi's lowered head, Liulishan spoke speechlessly. In modern times, men can fall in love with men, and women can propose to women. Here, there are young girls who are not married to men in their fifties and sixties.

This kind of love is sometimes beyond age, beyond men and women.

"My sister doesn't understand, in my sister's family, this kind of love can't be recognized. Listening to Liulishan's words, Xiao Chi sneered. As she said, she flinched because of the gossip of the world. But after retreating, in a world without him, she missed it endlessly.

Now that she can appear in King Chen's mansion, it is that person who uses the life of the person she loves so much to threaten her.

If it weren't for that, she wouldn't have expected that she would already love him to the core. Seeing him injured, she was distressed and about to die.

"Men should get married, women should get married, and the masters of those rich and noble families are not all old and married little girls and went home to be aunts. Liulishan was speechless, there were a lot of young girls in this ancient backyard, and the men they served together were not all old, how could it become a shame when they came to the Xiao Chi family.

Thinking about it, it seems that in the Xiao Chi family, they are all monogamous, and they are all original.

"Hey. Xiao Chi sighed leisurely, and the look on his face was not good.

Seeing this, Liulishan also turned her face away with interest and changed the topic: "Luo Ye used this matter to let you do things for him, and used the ugly things in your family to let your parents assist." It's not a blessing to be held by him for a long time, aren't you going to confess to the prince and the emperor?"

"Sister thinks, if you confess, will the emperor let her sister's family go?" Xiao Chi raised his eyes and looked at Liulishan.

Liulishan shook her head: "I don't know if I let it go, I just know that if you go on like this, it will definitely be a dead end." Where there is life, there is hope. If your life is gone, you really have nothing left. ”

Xiao Chi choked.

"If you confess, there will be punishment, but not death. You must know that if you are involved in other people's struggles, you will not die or be injured, and self-preservation is the last word. ”

"What my sister said. Xiao Chi nodded, quite agreeing with Liulishan's words, if she hadn't taken this into account before, she wouldn't have hidden her skills while assassinating Liulishan and Luo Ximei, but would have stabbed them.

It's really the right thing to do. Even if there will be punishment, but it will save the life of the family.

"Alright, let's go back and rest. Seeing that Xiao Chi's eyes gradually recovered from coldness, Liulishan nodded and waved her hand.

"Didn't my sister let my sister go with her to see the queen?" Looking at Liulishan's hurried posture, Xiao Chi was puzzled.

"My sister is tired, so the queen and my sister can go by herself. The queen is weak now, and she won't blame you. Liulishan waved her hand again, and after leaving a few words, she walked directly towards the 'Plum Courtyard'.

Seeing this, Xiao Chi sighed and turned around and left briskly.

As Liu Lishan said, confess as soon as possible and get out of this secret battle as soon as possible to protect yourself from being used as cannon fodder.

Inside the study.

After Luo Chen, who left early, settled Luo Ximei, he wanted to go back to accompany Liulishan, but he didn't want Liulishan to meet with the beauties in the house, so he turned back to the study and looked at the news from various countries in the past few days.

"Master, my subordinates have something to report. ”

Luo Chen's personal servant entered silently, and when he saw his grandfather quietly looking at the fold in his hand, the little servant hesitated.

Say. Luo Chen spit out a word from between his teeth expressionlessly, and his eyes continued to stare at the content on the fold.

"Master, the princess beat all the ladies in the house. The personal servant bent down and lowered his eyebrows, respectfully reporting the situation in the backyard of the house.

"Hmm. Luo Chen snorted lightly, his eyes still falling on the fold in his hand. I guessed that today, Liulishan would punish those beauties. So when he heard the news, Luo Chen was not surprised.

Looking at his father's calm and calm appearance, the little maid spoke again, "Master, the princess is ...... in the direction of the Mei Courtyard" But he didn't finish his words, he only felt a gust of wind, and the figure that was originally sitting on the chair was gone.

"Alas......" Looking at the vacant position and the fold that was still in the hands of his grandfather just now, the little girl sighed and secretly pinched a cold sweat for the princess. The princess's unrelenting appearance of scolding the beauty was engraved into her mind, thinking about her own master's ruthless methods, the little girl shook her head and exclaimed, her own father and the princess are a perfect match.

Luo Chen, who left suddenly, ran towards the 'Plum Courtyard' with an unusual number of times.

It's not that he didn't let Liulishan go to Meiyuan, but Mo Zhen explained that he is now in Meiyuan to configure medicinal materials and the things he needs to do it tomorrow, if Liulishan sees those, it is hard to guarantee that he will think about it.

Just when he arrived at the 'Plum Courtyard', Liulishan's figure also slowly came here. Seeing this, Luo Chen breathed a sigh of relief, and walked towards Liulishan with brisk steps.

Looking at the oncoming person, Liulishan was stunned, a soft smile rose on her beautiful face, and at the same time that Luo Chen walked towards her, she also greeted her with Xiao Man's support.

"Why are you still running around when your belly is so big?" Before and after coming to Liulishan, Xiao Man let go of Liulishan's hand, but Luo Chen took it and supported him in the same way.

"I just wasn't at ease and came over to see if there was anyone I could help with. Liulishan smiled and spoke.

"It's okay here. Luo Chen nodded, then helped Liulishan and walked in another direction.

Seeing this, Liulishan was puzzled, turned her head to look at Luo Chen's cold and handsome face, and asked, "Are you going to help me there?"

"Study. Luo Chen said bluntly, after speaking bluntly, he felt that his words were a little cold and stiff, and hurriedly looked back at Liulishan, seeing her frowning at herself, after holding back the coldness, she said again: "There is a backlog of documents in the study for a few days, I don't want to stay there alone to read, you accompany me?"

Liulishan was surprised, looked back at the Mei Courtyard behind her, and then looked at Luo Chen, a little puzzled by Luo Chen's actions.

Can she naively think that Luo Chen really gave her a chance to let her into his heart?

No, Luo Chen and Luo Ximei have been in love for many years, and it is not overnight for her to be liked by an outsider. However, to be able to get along with Luo Chen, Liulishan is still very happy and happy.

Then he nodded and said with a smile: "Okay." ”

Seeing Liulishan smile with great joy, Luo Chen couldn't help but nod movingly. As if infected by Liulishan, the previous depression dissipated, and he was as happy as Liulishan.

After nodding silently, Luo Chen helped Liulishan and walked slowly towards the study.

Along the way, the maids and ladies who cleaned and cleaned looked at the two people who came to support them, and they were all infected by the smiles on their faces, and they couldn't help but sigh that the two of them were like golden boys and girls, so beautiful that people didn't dare to disturb them.

There are also many people who see this scene, and they can't help but compare Luo Ximei with Liulishan.

Liulishan is so beautiful that it is so beautiful that people dare not blaspheme. The most important thing is that the people who serve on errands around her know that Liulishan is kind and angry, and never blames them for their slightest mistake, but teaches them with a pleasant face.

Thinking about Luo Ximei, she looks ordinary, not to mention that she is sick. Although he treats people kindly, he is not as approachable as Liulishan.

In this comparison, everyone couldn't help but hope that the person who could stand side by side with Luo Chen was Liulishan.

In the silent watching, Liulishan, Luo Chen and Xiaoman came to the study.

After coming to the study, Xiao Wei prepared pastries and tea for Liulishan and then withdrew with Xiao Man. Luo Chen had something to do, so he allowed Liulishan to wander around casually and then began to deal with his affairs.

On the contrary, it was Liulishan, who returned to the study after a few walks. Turning back and forth on the edge of the shelves, his eyes scanning the books on the shelves.

Immediately, a somewhat worn book happened to meet her eyes. Liulishan stretched out her hand, took out the book, and just wanted to open it to see the contents, a picture scroll that was folded repeatedly appeared in front of her eyes.

Liulishan was stunned for a moment, looking at the picture scroll that appeared in the corner in front of her, a little cute.

After putting the book aside, Liulishan picked up the scroll and came to the table and chair that Luo Chen had prepared for her on the side, opened the scroll, and spread it on the table.

Immediately afterwards, a picture of a retouched beauty appeared in front of her.

Looking at the picture of the beauty, Liulishan recognized who the beauty in the painting was at a glance. But this picture is retouched, and if she hadn't seen the person in the painting, she would definitely think that the person was so beautiful.

Looking up at Luo Chen, who was still looking at the fold in his hand, and looking down at the person in the painting, Liulishan's heart was slightly painful.

Judging from this shabby and old piece of paper, it looks like a painting from many years ago.

However, who drew it?

If Luo Chen, many years ago, Luo Ximei seemed to be a yellow-haired girl who didn't open up, then this painting was painted out of thin air?

"Luo Chen, do you love Luo Ximei very much?" Looking at the beauty in the picture, Liulishan finally couldn't resist the pantothenic pain in her heart, raised her head, looked at Luo Chen and spoke.

Hearing this, Luo Chen raised his head suspiciously, and looked at Liulishan opposite indifferently. I don't understand why she said this for that.

"It seems that you really love her. Looking at Luo Chen's direct eyes, Liulishan smiled bitterly in her heart, took a deep breath, picked up the scroll, and walked towards Luo Chen.

Seeing this, Luo Chen raised his eyebrows, and when he saw the scroll in Liulishan's hand, his eyes sank, and his eyes were cold: "How did you take out the scroll?"

The sudden cold questioning came into Liulishan's ears, making Liulishan, who was approaching, stop her steps forward.

Looking at Luo Chen, who was hot and cold to her in front of her, Liulishan's heart ached again. Once there is anything about Luo Ximei, has she always been left behind by him? Now that she just took out the picture scroll, he treated her so coldly and angrily.

"Put it back. ”

The words of the cold command sounded in her ears again, and Liulishan blinked and took a deep breath.

After calming the surging pain in his heart, Liulishan ignored Luo Chen's words and directly placed the scroll in front of him.

Liulishan smiled very enchantingly, her jade finger was pressed against the yellowed beauty picture, and her heavenly voice resounded throughout the room: "Forget her, try to love me, okay?" I knew that her request was a bit excessive, but she still had to earn it.

She didn't want to see a picture scroll, and she didn't want to see Luo Chen treat herself coldly again, so she chose to give up.

Luo Chen's face was full of black lines, although Liulishan's words and the sudden bewitching smile made his heart throb, but he also understood that tomorrow's events would be a serious injury to Liulishan. So he didn't dare to speak early, and he didn't dare to promise her anything.

Looking down and watching her jade fingers against the yellowed scroll, Luo Chen's eyes were dyed with a trace of anger for no reason. At the beginning, this painting was his fantasy of what Luo Ximei would look like when she grew up, and he painted it with a moving heart.

I remember that when he painted this painting, he made up his mind to marry Luo Ximei alone.

Looking up at Liulishan, who was smiling particularly enchantingly in front of him. Now, he is married to this woman.

The sudden anger and annoyance made him behave a little excessively, and he slapped away the Qianqian jade finger against the picture scroll fiercely, and roared: "Warning you, don't expect too much." With that, he got up and wanted to leave.

This sudden anger and irritation made him not know how to face her. Immediately, he pulled back the scroll on the table, quickly turned around and walked out.

"I'm not going to give up. Looking at the back of Luo Chen's resolute departure, Liulishan's heart ached, and she stubbornly explained behind Luo Chen.

Hearing this, Luo Chen's footsteps paused for a moment, but that pause quickly lifted in his chagrin and left.

Looking at the back of Luo Chen leaving, until she disappeared from Liulishan's sight, Liulishan raised her head, and the tears that fell from her mouth finally slid down her cheeks silently.

Xiao Man, who saw Luo Chen outside the door and hurried after leaving, felt a slight pain in his heart when he saw this.

Seeing that the prince has been so good to her young lady in the past few days, she thought that there was an improvement between them, but she didn't expect it to be the case.

"Xiao Man~" After wiping away the tears that had fallen, Liulishan called softly.

After hearing this, Xiao Man outside the door also walked into the study.

"Let's go back. After seeing Xiao Man come in, Liulishan spoke weakly.

"Good. Looking at such a young lady, Xiao Man was both distressed and helpless. She couldn't understand why her own lady was so stubborn in fighting for this kind of undeniable love.

"Dream House" side hall.

After Luo Ximei moved out, Liulishan and Xiaoman did not move back to the main courtyard to live. I don't know if I have a pimple in my heart, Liulishan always feels that she has robbed Luo Ximei's things from beginning to end.

She was forced to crown the identity of Princess Chen, and the courtyard that Luo Chen had carefully prepared for Luo Ximei was also occupied because of her arrival. Now, although Luo Ximei only stayed in the main courtyard of Dream House for two nights, Liulishan still couldn't help but feel a little repulsed.

Standing in front of the window for a long time and looking out of the window.

In his mind, he kept changing the picture of Luo Chen's cold and hot to him, as well as every lukewarm word he spoke. And then to the sentence he said just now, "Warning you, don't expect too much." ”

Yes, it's true that she expects too much.

He gritted his teeth with hatred.

"Xiao Man, did I really do something wrong?" After pondering for a long time, Liulishan spoke softly.

Xiao Man on the side looked at it, and there was a slight pain in his heart: "Miss, there is nothing wrong with falling in love with someone, but the fault is that you are in love with the wrong person." ”

"Yes, it is true that I love the wrong person, just like I love the wrong Zhang Hao. Listening to the words from Xiao Man in her ears, Liulishan laughed bitterly, turned around, looked at Xiao Man with a sad gaze, and said softly: "I want to play the piano~"

"The slave and maid will go and get it. Xiao Man nodded, knowing that Miss would play the piano when she was sad, so she hurriedly turned around and went out to get it.

After a while, Xiao Man took the piano over. After Liulishan took it, she turned around and walked out of the side hall, and sat cross-legged in the elegant pavilion not far away. Xiao Man followed behind him and watched quietly.

On the contrary, Liulishan, after sitting down, stared at the strings for a long time.

All kinds of pictures that were happy for her in the past with Luo Chen instantly replayed in her mind, and in the end, she finally let out a long sigh, and then fluctuated the strings.

Before, whenever she plucked the strings, Luo Ye would appear. Now that his identity is known, he has also left.

Only she and Xiao Man were left.

After all kinds of sighs, Liulishan lightly opened her red lips with the strings at hand, and her heavenly voice suddenly spread all around.

'I can't guess, you've been silent lately, and I don't want to ask too many questions, so that temptations lock each other's hearts'

How could she easily open this good lock?

'I can't guess, getting along will be more lonely than being separated, both of them just get by, and they can't feel that every touch is really hot'

The feeling that Luo Chen gave himself and the touch he gave him every time was both true and false, and he also fell in this untrue and untrue.

'If the freedom of flickering away and coming is the freedom you want, then I would rather go back to living alone'

'If hot and cold tenderness is your excuse, then I'd rather never be serious about you'

The fingertips stopped, and the strings still lingered in the ears, but Liulishan's thoughts turned and swirled in the strings.

Immediately afterwards, Liulishan's heavenly voice opened again, and the leisurely and tactful, low and painful melody and lyrics surrounded her again.

Xiao Man on the side watched and listened, and couldn't help but be infected by the young lady's strings and lyrics, and shed a line of coldness.

All around, Luo Xi, who was dealing with official business, Luo Chen, who was annoyed and left, and all the ministers who came to discuss with Luo Xi, were all attracted by Liulishan's heart-wrenching, tactful and sad piano sound, and they all stood around and listened quietly.

At the end of the song, after Liulishan finished speaking, those who were listening quietly also dispersed.

Luo Xi and Luo Chen stood in place, looking at Liulishan who had no movement in the pavilion not far away, and their hearts ached~

And Liulishan, who was in the spotlight, lowered her head, looked at the piano in front of her, and fell into contemplation again.

She didn't want to give up, but she didn't want Luo Chen to hate because of her persistence.

She didn't understand how deep their love for Luo Ximei was, but she was very suspicious of Luo Ximei's character.
