Chapter 4: You'll Know I'm Not Happy Again
"I've seen Gu Shizi."
Shen Huiyi bowed slightly, her eyebrows and eyes smiled, and the demeanor of a little daughter appeared on her face.
It turns out that this is the reason for stealing this banquet.
Shen Zhiyun knew that Jiang's heart was higher than the sky, and Shen Huiyi had never decided that her husband was to marry highly, but what she didn't want to fight was Gu Hanshu's idea.
Family...... The royal family, which is also half royal.
I really dare to think about it.
Shen Zhiyun turned to look at Gu Hanshu, a hint of cunning flashed in his bright eyes.
Gu Hanshu didn't know why, but according to experience, Shen Zhiyun was now holding bad water in his stomach.
Shen Zhiyun introduced, "This is my sister. ”
These words made Shen Huiyi slightly surprised, when did Shen Zhiyun give her face like this.
Thinking about Gu Shizi's noble status, her face-saving brother also understands the so-called consideration of both glory and loss, and she doesn't want to appear that the juniors of the Shen family are not harmonious in front of the son of the family, and it is really the same as his mother Shen Hai who lives in the backyard.
Thinking like this, Shen Huiyi couldn't help but relax a lot in her heart, it seemed that Shen Zhiyun would not hinder her from climbing the relationship with the Gu family.
And here Gu Hanshu not only knew about Shen Zhiyun pretending to be a man, but of course he was very clear about the Shen family's troubles, and he was also surprised in his heart. But he still has the style of a son of a family, with a long body and a clear voice, like the sound of gurgling water flowing through his ears.
"It turned out to be Lord Shen's sister, it's really disrespectful."
Shen Huiyi hid her face and chuckled, half-hiding behind Shen Zhiyun, she knew how to meet at the most appropriate distance, which was taught to her by her mother.
"Gu Shizi doesn't know the little girl, but the little woman often hears the Lord of Zhile mention you."
"Really? Zhile is a naughty one, what is she arranging behind my back? ”
Gu Hanshu seemed to have some interest in continuing to talk, but his eyes were looking at Shen Zhiyun.
Shen Zhiyun raised his eyebrows lightly, as if he couldn't understand the inquiry in Gu Hanshu's eyes, he was very puzzled and innocent.
Gu Hanshu looked at Shen Zhiyun and pretended to laugh, but he didn't hold back, and his laughter was low and deep.
Shen Huiyi guessed that this laughter was because of the county lord of Zhile, she didn't think that the first time she talked to the prince, the prince would be interested in her, and her mother said that she couldn't eat hot tofu in a hurry.
From this point of view, it is not a loss to use his reputation to come to the banquet of the old man today at the risk of annoying Shen Zhiyun.
The mother of the county lord of Zhile is good friends with the mother of the Gu family, and the time spent in the Gu family since childhood is not much shorter than the time spent in her own palace.
Since Gu Hanshu was interested in the Lord of Zhile, she introduced the topic in this regard.
"The prince laughed, the lord of Zhile regarded the prince as his own brother, but he just shared some childhood anecdotes with us, how could it be an arrangement."
Shen Huiyi paused and continued.
"I heard that the prince had some hobbies when he was young, and he loved to practice danqing on the paper window, and his pen was very stable, the ink and light and shadow were intertwined, and the pen was more Ling. The lord of Zhile loves to play, and adds flowers to the paintings of the prince, the colors are gorgeous, the style is weird, the prince is often annoyed that the lord of Zhile destroys the paintings, so he splashes ink on the window paper to cover it, and finally the windows of the palace are broken, Mrs. Gu Wang was angry, and punished the prince and the lord of Zhile to replace the window paper of the palace in person. ”
Shen Zhiyun didn't expect that this Shen Huiyi had some ability, and she could really tell a little bit about Gu Wangfu.
But in fact, I don't know the details.
Although Gu Hanshu was intoxicated with Danqing, he also drew two strokes on the window paper of his room. Unexpectedly, Zhile was a fool who learned from him, painted the window paper in Gu's house in a mess, and finally slandered Gu Hanshu, saying that she only added two strokes to Gu Hanshu's masterpiece, which caused Gu Hanshu to be sat down.
Hey, I don't want to talk about this matter, Gu Hanshu has always been obsessed with it.
Shen Zhiyun silently commented on Shen Huiyi in her heart, she has some ability, but not much.
Gu Hanshu nodded, his eyebrows and eyes were stretched, his lips were smiling, he looked gentle and polite, noble and elegant, "It turns out that this is the case, in this way, I remember that Zhile once told me that no matter which banquet she goes to, she can meet the girl of the Shen family, and she must be very talented, so she can make Zhile impressed." ”
At first glance, this sounds fine, but in fact, there is a big problem.
Shen Huiyi is a concubine, but she always goes to the same banquet with the county lord of Zhile, so she doesn't know how important she is.
And if it is really talented, there should be some good stories that are famous in Beijing, such as the eldest daughter of the Liu family and the second daughter of the Xu family.
But for Shen Huiyi, obviously this is also no.
That is, it is hard to melt into the circle of high-ranking elites, and it can't be melted in, it looks like a pheasant playing a peacock, and the tail feathers that don't have an open screen have to be displayed everywhere, which makes the lord of Zhile tired of seeing it.
Shen Zhiyun heard this and wanted to laugh.
Of course, Gu Hanshu said this nonsense, and Li Zhile would not discuss with him the Shen family's concubine who traveled around various banquets.
And Shen Huiyi didn't know the inferiority of his Gu Hanshu, he wanted to get acquainted with the prince many times but never had the opportunity, today he finally spoke, there was such a romantic and charming prince in front of him, with the appearance of the moon, he was in a crush, how could he hear Gu Hanshu's extra-string sound, he really thought he was praising her, his face was red, and he was a little shy.
Shen Huiyi was in a radiant mood and was about to open her lips.
Shen Zhiyun coughed lightly, interrupting Shen Huiyi's twisting.
"Gu Shizi and I still have some government affairs to discuss, you go back to the courtyard and stay with the female dependents, don't move around at will."
Shen Zhiyun is used to playing with people's hearts, knowing that Shen Huiyi has just talked to Gu Hanshu now, it is the excitement in her heart that interrupting her at this time will arouse Shen Huiyi's resentment.
Shen Huiyi was indignant, and she was happy.
“…… Yes, brother. ”
Shen Zhiyun's words were neither an inquiry nor a suggestion, neither euphemistic nor maneuvering, and the tone of the command was not to be ignored.
Shen Huiyi still wanted to maintain the appearance of a polite and decent lady in front of Gu Han's writing, even if she was dissatisfied with Shen Zhiyun's arrangement for her, she couldn't brush her eldest brother's face in front of the prince, making Gu Hanshu feel that she was obedient and disobedient.
She knows that the sons and daughters of powerful families do not love their wives and concubines the most and do not obey discipline, and this discipline can come from fathers, brothers-in-law, and in-laws...... From anyone whose vision is higher than himself, he should not be arrogant and arrogant, and feel that after reading a book, he can talk to him in the same position as a man.
You need to put yourself in a secondary position, advance and retreat decently, and not show perverse rebuttals.
But don't be too easy to handle, and don't be too weak to be preached. Just like the cowardly wife of her Shen family, she lost the support of her mother's family, took into account her son's decency, didn't dare to fight with her mother's relatives for anything, and couldn't control her husband's heart, so she was depressed all day long and lingered on the sickbed.
For a prince like Gu Hanshu, who is different from a gentleman, the vision of looking at women is naturally different, and you can't be cowardly when you talk to each other, you can't stay when you need to retreat, and you can only be comfortable when you need to retreat.
Therefore, Shen Huiyi bowed slightly to Gu Hanshu and said goodbye, but her face was still knowledgeable, gentle and lovely.
thinks that she is so obedient, but it seems that her brother Shen Zhiyun is not kind to her sister.
If Shen Zhiyun knew about this woman's competition for favor like the Jiang family in her heart, Shen Cifu, who often debated the four divisions in the court, would definitely be silent.
Why bother, why bother correcting a crooked tree.
After Shen Huiyi left, Shen Zhiyun didn't pay attention to Gu Hanshu, walked straight to the pond, searched back and forth for a few steps, leaned over and picked up a slender branch in the grass, pinched the root of the branch, and some crushed brown skin residue fell on his hand, squatted down and used the branch to hook the lotus leaves in the pond.
At this time, the water lily has just germinated and has long leaves, and the young leaves are new and tender, revealing the color of this water-green, and you can almost see the lotus that will stand still after a few months, and will be red but not red, with dewdrops.
Gu Hanshu followed and walked over, and the little servant of the two stayed in place and waited far away without stepping forward.
"Why don't you ask me what kind of gift I prepared for the teacher?" Gu Hanshu asked.
"What have you prepared?"
"Nanhu Ge Lao's handwritten congratulatory letter."
Then this is really rare, and it is hard to find.
Ge Lao died two months ago, at the age of eighty and six years, almost hidden before his death, has not published a work for more than 20 years, this is probably the last masterpiece of Ge Lao's works.
This Gu Hanshu is really a good worker.
"It's really rare." Shen Zhiyun nodded.
"What's wrong?" Gu Hanshu stood behind Shen Zhiyun and asked.
"Huh?" Shen Zhiyun didn't look up, and lowered his head to fiddle with the leaves near the shore.
"Look you're in a bad mood."
Gu Hanshu kicked the stones at his feet, wondering if he wanted to make a fuss, seeing that the pool was not big, so he dispelled this idea.
"Why do you say that?" Shen Zhiyun seemed to see a red-backed fish hiding under the lotus leaf.
Gu Hanshu kicked the stone away and looked down at Shen Zhiyun's swaying lotus leaves.
"I teased Shen Huiyi for a while, but I didn't see you happy."
Shen Zhiyun's action of fiddling with the blades stopped, and after thinking about it carefully, he was not very unhappy just now, and even held back a smile because of Gu Hanshu's sarcasm.
Do you know I'm not happy again?
When the words came to his lips, he thought again, "I didn't say what my sister's name was, but you remember it clearly." ”
When Gu Hanshu first met Shen Zhiyun, when he asked others what Shen Zhiyun's name was, his classmates whispered that it was Shen Zhiyun, the eldest son of the Shen family.
Gu Hanshu didn't hear it clearly, so he retold it, Shen Ziyi?
The classmate was worried that he would be punished by the master for talking little, so he nodded perfunctorily.
At first, Gu Hanshu called Shen Zhiyun to become Shen Ziyi, but Shen Zhiyun never ignored him.
Prior to this, before Shen Zhiyun entered the academy, he was still a disobedient child, and when he accepted his heart to study, he achieved remarkable results, and like the protagonist in the book, he had fun and schoolwork, and was praised by everyone.
Gu Hanshu only thought that the Shen family's sister-in-law bought so many books for nothing, and washed his prodigal son back, and ignored people, and was impolite and high-minded, and his impression of Shen Zhiyun in his heart plummeted.
As everyone knows, Gu Hanshu here commented that Shen Zhiyun ignored people, and Shen Zhiyun only felt that Gu Hanshu was like a fool and shouted behind her every day, and she didn't know whose name she was calling.
"Understanding the family affairs of the second assistant is an important matter for the imperial court, after all, knowing oneself and knowing the other party can save one's life."
Gu Hanshu moved to Shen Zhiyun's side and squatted down.
Shen Zhiyun rolled his eyes in his heart, pressed the branch on the ground, and broke it in half.
"The teacher is about to leave Beijing in a few days, and Brother Min Zhi has also submitted his resignation, not in the imperial court, he has already thought about it."
"I see, I was puzzled, today's birthday banquet is so grand, it really doesn't look like the teacher's usual style, it turned out to be a farewell banquet." Gu Hanshu picked up a flat stone and played with it on his fingertips.
No wonder Shen Zhiyun has not been in high spirits today.
Shen Zhiyun glanced at it and asked, "Do you want to play in the water?" Then the pool is not big enough. ”
"Of course not." Gu Hanshu stood up and flicked his sleeves.
Shen Zhiyun looked up at him, shrouded in Gu Hanshu's figure.
Gu Hanshu raised his chin to the pool, "Look." ”
And voila what? That red-backed fish? I've already run away.
Although she resisted in her heart, Shen Zhiyun did not hesitate to move, scanning the water by the river and not understanding what Gu Hanshu wanted her to see.
"Look closer."
Shen Zhiyun's body leaned into the water even more.
Gu Hanshu shook the stone chip in his hand, turned his elbow and wrist and smashed it towards the surface of the water near the shore, splashing in all directions, like a white flower falling on a shaking new leaf, falling back into the rippling pool, and falling on the not very clean shore...... fell to Shen Cifu, who had been squatting on the edge of the pool for a long time.
“……”
Shen Zhiyun closed his eyes and gritted his back teeth, a drop of water slowly slipped down his forehead, his face was wet, and even the placket of his clothes had several watermarks.
At the moment when Gu Hanshu's laughter sounded, Shen Zhiyun swung back and threw out half of the branch in his hand, using a bit of internal force, Gu Hanshu couldn't dodge, and was thrown on his leg.
The half of the branch was stretched into the water by Shen Zhiyun to play for a long time before, and it was originally picked up on the ground, and the water branches were all covered with thin mud, and they were all left on Gu Hanshu's robe.
Shen Zhiyun grabbed Gu Hanshu's clothes and got up with strength, his legs were a little numb after squatting for a long time before, and he was in a hurry to get up in a hurry, his legs were soft and he couldn't stand steadily, and he was about to tilt to the side, Gu Hanshu raised his hand to support Shen Zhiyun's shoulder.
Shen Zhiyun took advantage of his strength to stand firm, shook his shoulders and shook Gu Hanshu's hand away, walked in the direction of his little girl, and kicked Gu Hanshu's calf again before leaving.
"Childish!"
"Bai Bian! Accompany me to find a side house to clean up. ”
Gu Hanshu's gloating laughter came from behind him, and Shen Zhiyun only felt that his back molars were about to be crushed.
Counselor of Tomorrow +1
Bai Bian hurriedly followed Shen Zhiyun, and Cha Dou also rushed to Gu Hanshu's side.
Cha Dou shook his head and sighed.
"Shizi, why did you provoke Lord Shen again, you will be involved again tomorrow morning."
Gu Hanshu shook his head and sighed.
"Cha Dou, it's not me who should be in a hurry."
"Don't forget who tricked Lord Shen into my carriage this morning, and who drove into the main street and left Lord Shen in the car."
Gu Hanshu swaggered away, and Cha Dou stayed in place with his hands in his hands, stunned.
The enemy was so brazen that he was speechless.
He wants to take refuge in Lord Shen.
