Zhao Chengxi raised his eyebrows critically, and asked a little keenly: "Are you tired of practicing songs?" Or are you not used to it in the palace and have not rested well? ”

How could Lou Shu not know his own shortcomings, and he knelt down with a plop: "The slave has disappointed His Majesty, and he has lost his holy grace, and he deserves death!" ”

How could Zhao Chengxi take it to heart: "It's not that serious, get up quickly." ”

When Lou Shu stood up, Ah Jing said: "Your Majesty, your subordinates have a guess in their hearts, please allow your subordinates to verify." ”

Zhao Chengxi was inexplicable, so he nodded.

I saw Ah Jing approaching Lou Shu, suddenly grabbed his wrist, and lifted the wide sleeves, and there were a few blood marks on his white arm, which was shocking.

"What's going on?" Zhao Chengxi was furious.

Lou Shu fell to his knees again, like a fallen leaf that was fluttering up and down by the autumn wind.

Zhao Chengxi couldn't cry or laugh when he saw him like this, and even most of his anger was gone.

"Back to Your Majesty, it was the slave who did something wrong and deserved to be punished."

"Doing something wrong?" Zhao Chengxi stood up and paced to the bottom of the hall, "What did you do wrong?" Tell me about it? ”

This...... Lou Shu was speechless for a while, he actually didn't know what he had done wrong. Since he came to the Teaching Division, in order to be able to play in front of Zhao Chengxi as soon as possible, he has been practicing music every day, and he doesn't know where he offended people.

Zhao Chengxi saw that Lou Shuzhi couldn't say why, and he felt a little funny for a while.

Zhao Chengxi actually guessed a few points, the so-called law of the jungle, the palace also has the survival rules of the palace. Lou Shu is cowardly, this kind of person is the most vulnerable to bullying in the palace.

In fact, there is another reason why Lou Shu was appreciated by Zhao Chengxi as soon as he entered the palace, and the other musicians were not selected after several competitions to enter the teaching department, which would make people resentful.

Zhao Chengxi turned his head and gave Xiao Lianzi a look, and Xiao Lianzi saluted and walked out.

"Get up." Zhao Chengxi stood in front of Lou Shu, "You don't have to worry, no one will beat you in the future." ”

Lou Shu hung his head in fear, Lou Shu, who was obviously taller than Zhao Chengxi, was now standing in front of Zhao Chengxi, but he was slightly shorter than Zhao Chengxi.

"In your heart, am I a murderous, vicious tyrant?"

Sure enough, Lou Shu knelt down again: "The slave doesn't dare." ”

This Lou Shu is so much fun. Zhao Chengxi discovered his bad taste.

In order to avoid the impact on his magnanimous image of Mingjun, Zhao Chengxi pursed the corners of his mouth to prevent the smile from being unexpectedly revealed, so he coughed twice and said, "Get up." How's the injury? ”

Lou Shu got up tremblingly, and knelt down like this, his fragile body couldn't stand it.

"Back to Your Majesty, the injury has healed a lot."

"That's fine. When you're completely well, you'll play it to me. ”

"The minions obey."

"What else would you do besides playing the piano?"

"Back to Your Majesty, the minion's chess skills are acceptable."

Lou Shu came from a scholarly family, and piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are naturally not a problem.

"That's good, it's okay to play chess with me for a while." Zhao Chengxi instructed the palace people again, "Move the chessboard to the Fengwan Pavilion and play chess there, it will be cooler and more open-minded." ”

The wind pavilion is on high ground, where you can overlook most of the imperial garden and lotus pond, and there is a rockery next to it to block the sun, which is in the shade, and the breeze blows away the sultry irritability of summer.

The palace people have prepared soft chairs, tea and refreshments.

Zhao Chengxi sat on the main seat and looked at Lou Shu, who was still pestle: "Sit down." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Lou Shu sat down respectfully and sat across the stone table from Zhao Chengxi.

Zhao Chengxi picked up the teacup and took a sip. This flower tea quenches thirst, leaves a fragrance on the lips and teeth, and is very suitable for Zhao Chengxi's appetite. Zhao Chengxi put down the teacup and glanced at the table: "Try this tea for him too." ”

The palace people promised to go down and prepare. Lou Shu's status is low, and the palace people naturally will not prepare tea for Lou Shu.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Lou Shu got up and saluted again.

"It's okay, excuse me." Zhao Chengxi hurriedly beckoned Lou Shu to sit down.

Zhao Chengxi couldn't help but laugh sullenly: "Your etiquette is really too thoughtful." ”

Lou Shu couldn't tell whether Zhao Chengxi's words were praise or reproach for a while, and Ai Ai was speechless.

Zhao Chengxi was afraid that he would salute again, so he hurriedly said: "Let's say it first, you are not allowed to let me, if you let it, it will be a bully, do you understand?" ”

"The minions obey."

Lou Shu lowered his eyebrows from beginning to end, and did not dare to see the sky, but fixed his gaze on a small chessboard.

The sandalwood-colored chessboard and the plain black and white chess pieces can't be seen anymore, but a white hand on the opposite side is too eye-catching.

Zhao Chengxi sometimes neatly covered his hands, and sometimes rubbed the chess pieces on the chessboard to consider the next step, but he didn't think about it, but the actions he didn't care about became the scenery in the eyes of others.

Your Majesty's hands are so beautiful, better than many girls' hands......

Lou Shu came back to his senses, his face turned red, fortunately he lowered his head and others couldn't see it, and secretly blamed himself for being disrespectful in his heart, forcing himself to concentrate on the chess game.

I have to say that Lou Shu really obeyed Zhao Chengxi's orders when he said that he obeyed the order, and he was completely going all out to deal with Zhao Chengxi. Half an hour has passed, and the killing of black and white can be said to be inseparable, regardless of whether it is up or down.

When he first ascended the throne, Zhao Chengxi played against Meng Lingping, which was called a life like a year, and every few moves of chess, Meng Lingping had to tirelessly teach the great truth of chess as life. Later, playing chess with Qin Chongzhou, he was like a grinding donkey, and he kept looking at a carrot in front of him, which was obviously close in front of him, but he couldn't eat anything.

It is rare to meet such an opponent as Lou Shu who is quite strong and does not talk nonsense, Zhao Chengxi had a lot of fun, his spirit was highly concentrated, and he felt dry after a while.

Zhao Chengxi took a sip of tea, and saw Lou Shu holding the chess pieces in one hand, and was looking down to think about the next move. Zhao Chengxi's eyes moved to the chessboard, and he frowned suddenly, desperately resisting the urge to beat his chest.

Oh, why didn't I see it there, I should have blocked his way with that move just now, what should I do! If he finds out, as soon as the son falls, I will lose! What to do! What to do!

Wait a minute......

I remember...... He seems to be a very shy lord, doesn't he?

Zhao Chengxi had an idea, raised his eyebrows and looked at Lou Shu: "Lou Shu, I remember that I have only seen you once, and I have never seen you raise your head after entering the palace, and I have forgotten what you look like." Raise your head and let me see. ”

Zhao Chengxi praised his wit in his heart, and sighed again at his prostitute tone.
