Chapter 25: Relics

The second brother was still thinking about what he had just said, and his heart was angry, his face was still red, and he sat there sullenly without speaking.

He has read a lot of books, and his mood has become the same as that of the teachers in the academy, with the feelings of a literati, and he can't see those tricky and conspiracy things.

I poured a cup of tea and sent it to him and asked, "Did the second brother come here to ask me to find Liye to intercede?"

The second brother softened his attitude a little when he heard me say this, and he took a sip of the teacup.

"I heard today that you came back from Penglai with Prince Liye, and those little fairies said that you look very..."The second brother hesitated for a long time before he continued to say two words: "Love." ”

......

The corners of my mouth twitched, the news could be spread so fast, I hadn't even sat on the bench this time, and the news had already reached the ears of the second brother.

I held the teacup and looked the second brother up and down, he clenched the teacup and pursed his mouth, looking at the tea leaves in the teacup with his eyes down.

"Second brother, you wouldn't have planted eyeliner next to Li Ye in order to save Zhuyu Shangshen, right?"

The second brother's face was a little unnatural, he twisted the wine glass in one hand and turned around, then raised his head and said helplessly: "I didn't want to do this, but for the sake of the bamboo language, I had to do this." ”

I know the temperament of my second brother, and if I hadn't had no choice at all, I wouldn't have made this decision, let alone come to me.

"I know, I'll go to Liye tomorrow to intercede for Zhuyu. "It's all for the sake of the second brother, even if Li Ye doesn't agree, I still have to go.

The second brother's frowning brow stretched out, and his originally gloomy eyes lit up, and he stood up and looked at me happily, but only for a second he became sad again.

"Xiao Zhao, I have wronged you. The second brother looked at me with guilt, I nudged him and smiled: "What's wrong with this? It's just a plea for the second brother." ”

The second brother looked at me, let out a long sigh, and put one hand behind his back, like a master teaching in the academy.

"There are a lot of gossips outside, and you usually tell us that you don't want to see Liye. Although the second brother doesn't have the same mind as the third brother, he can still see that you have Liye in your heart, but this Liye is really... He treats you badly, you must be the saddest, the second brother thinks that the farther away you are from him, the better, if it weren't for the fact that this matter is really out of the question, I don't want you to see Liye. ”

The second brother looked out the window and sighed at the end.

I was speechless.

I choked on why the second brother could see it, I knew that the third brother had always understood, and it was not strange to see that the second brother had only read books every day?

I laughed a little embarrassed 'haha' twice, lowered my head to peel the white texture on the orange petals, and said in a joking tone, "Second brother, what are you kidding? I never said I liked him." ”

As soon as my voice fell, the second brother turned to look at me and shook his head: "Xiao Zhao, you can't hide if you like someone." ”

I was just about to defend myself, but I was blocked by his words.

"The more you try to hide, the more dewy it becomes. Especially the people close to you and the people you know, you can't hide it. The second brother looked at me with a pair of eyes full of pity.

"Half of your brain has learned from Teng Snake, and he is straightforward, he is a good understander, unlike that Liye, God knows what he is doing in a day. ”

The second brother mentioned that Li Ye seemed to be a little angry again, and did not continue.

But I don't think Li Ye is such a difficult person to understand as the second brother.

I can barely be regarded as watching him grow up, although he is not always by his side like Fire God Venerable and Aunt Ling, but I believe that Li Ye is not as deep in the city as the second brother said, and he still does things to frame others.

Mo Yoo is because of this bamboo language god thing, the second brother has a lot of prejudice against Liye.

I comforted the second brother and sent him away, dismissed the little fairies in the courtyard, and finally had time to rest.

-

When I went to Litian, Liye was reviewing the official documents, and he didn't seem surprised at all by my arrival.

He sat in front of the rosewood desk, on which there was an incense burner with a gold flower and bird picture, and in it was the bag of pear wood incense that I had mixed in the world.

Li Ye looked at the bamboo slip in his hand, knowing that I was coming, and he didn't raise his eyelids.

I didn't care, so I sat down on a chair on one side and looked around at the furnishings.

The incense burner I gave and used spices, the ones I blended, and the hair crown I wore on my head, I made them with my own hands.

And these things were given to Yun Yi when I was in the world.

I looked at the way he looked at the official document without changing his face, and sighed in my heart: "It's so thick-skinned." ”

With the things of this princess, I don't give a good face, I don't know what it means to eat people with soft mouths and short hands.

It was very quiet in this hall, and I was bored waiting for it, thinking that I would go out for a walk and then come back, but as soon as I got up, the sound of him putting down his pen sounded.

I turned around, and Li Ye raised his eyes and looked at me: "What's the matter?"

I turned and walked over to his desk, and glanced down at the scroll on his desk, which was scrawled like a picture of a chicken pecking rice, and I couldn't tell what was written.

When he asked like this, I didn't want to beat around the bush, so I said bluntly: "I came to see the bamboo language god." ”

Li Ye looked at me in some surprise when he heard this, and then he retracted his gaze and stood up, straightened his robe, walked up to me and asked, "Nothing else?"

Is there something wrong with this man's brain?

As soon as he approached me, I thought of his behavior on the fire cloud yesterday, so I couldn't help but take a step back, stabilize my mind and said, "No, I just want to see what the god of Zhuyu has committed and condemned him to death." ”

I looked at Liye, there was a faint smile on his face, I looked at him strangely, he noticed my gaze, and turned his head away.

"Liye, are you sick?" I looked at him suspiciously, stepped forward and stretched out my hand to shake it in front of his eyes.

Li Ye coughed and turned back, with a serious look.

"In the bamboo language, the god and the flame god monarch sneaked into his father's royal house and stole something. ”

"What's that?" I asked in a whisper as I looked at him.

Before I came, I also asked the second brother what it was, but the second brother only said that it was a piano, and as for what kind of piano was so important, the second brother didn't know, I heard that the origin of this piano was a secret in their hatred of the sky. Before I came, the second brother also asked me not to inquire about the origin of this qin, and I heard that a few little palace ladies talked about the origin of this qin in private, and they were also disposed of by the Fire God Venerable.

But I can't hold back my damn curiosity.

Li Ye and I looked at each other, and I saw that he didn't open his mouth and hurriedly said, "I'll just ask casually, if you don't want to say..."

"It's your mother's relic. ”

Before I finished speaking, Li Ye had already said it without hesitation.

My mother's relics?

"Really?"

Li Ye nodded.

My mother's relics, not only in this hatred of heaven, but also a secret that no one can mention?

When my mother left, my father burned all my mother's belongings with heavenly fire according to his last wishes, leaving nothing for us to miss.

How can there be a mother's relics in the heavens?

Li Ye seemed to see what I was thinking, and I asked a step before I spoke: "As for why there is, I don't know." ”

I nodded, and didn't ask, wondering what my mother's relic would look like.

I was still thinking about what kind of piano it was, when Li Ye's voice sounded again: "Why didn't I know before, you are very familiar with the bamboo language gods?"

I didn't have a brain to hear him ask this, and said bluntly: "I'm not familiar with it, my second brother is familiar." ”

"Your second brother wants you to come and beg me?"

Li Ye's voice sounded a little happy, and I let out a sullen hum and nodded.

"I didn't expect that the five princesses of the Xihai Sea also begged for the queen, but since they are begging me, do you have to show sincerity. ”

The smile in Liye's tone became thicker, and I looked up at him, and he was also looking at me at the moment, with a smile on the corners of his eyes and eyebrows.

I pointed to the censer on his desk, to the crown on his head, and then to his belt. Then he asked, "What more do you want?" ”

"These are things you want to give me yourself. Li Ye said disapprovingly.

I rolled my eyes and glared at him and said, "These things are what I gave to Yun Yi." ”
