At this time, it was about to enter summer, and Zhou Jing sat in the study drowsy, with his chin resting on his arm, and his upper body lying on the desk, with an extremely beautiful ridge line.
The Patriarch half-closed his eyes, reminiscing about what her Miss Zhouzhou did to her softly, laughing at her timidity, and laughing at her sensitivity and fun, bullying people is like being bullied.
With nothing to do, she cheered up a little, looked out the window at the red flowers and green leaves, rested her chin on one hand, and stood up abruptly.
oh! Finally found something to do!
With a smile on her lips, she walked all the way to the inner room, thinking about the guilty conscience that flashed past Zhou Zhou's apricot eyes that day, and walked patiently in the inner room by herself.
"In the end, what did you hide from her?"
The head of the family rummaged through the bedroom with his wife, and suddenly felt blessed, and walked to the dressing table. Skimming the layers of rouge and gouache on the top, she opened the hidden compartment and turned to the bottom, only to see a book wrapped tightly in brocade.
Zhou Jing's fox eyes lit up, the feeling of looking for "little secrets" on his dressing table behind his wife's back was strangely stimulating and novel, and he carefully opened the brocade with his fingers...
Baihe Academy, Women's Academy.
The very beautiful girl who studied hard didn't know that the little secret she had been covering up was discovered.
In the school, Dean Shen was dressed in a Confucian uniform and talked about the words of ancient sages and sages.
Lianzhou's back is always straight in school, and her posture is correct, and only in the study or inner room of the mansion, when her feelings are uncontrollable, will she soften her body and lean into someone's arms weakly and bonelessly.
She has a serious attitude towards studying, which has affected many classmates over time. Furthermore, Li Shiqigui knew how to work hard as a girl from the Heavenly family, and the others would naturally feel a sense of urgency invisibly.
When the new emperor ascended the throne, His Highness the Seventeenth Prince was even more honorable than when the first emperor was there—there were several daughters of the first emperor, but who else could be the most pampered younger sister of the new emperor besides Li Shiqi?
As a rice worm raised by the royal family, she knows how to swim in the sea, so why is the daughter of the family stagnant?
The ever-improving study atmosphere aroused the teaching enthusiasm of Shen Duan and all the teachers in the Women's College.
At the end of the half-day class, Lian Zhou returned to the study with her book bag in her arms. Just as she was about to take out the booklet she had studied recently from the gap in the book bag, Li Shiqi pushed the door in and stretched wearily: "Mrs. I'm tired, I really don't know how to live when summer comes."
Summer hasn't come yet, even if summer comes, Lian Zhou is not afraid. With her back turned to Li Shiqi, she groped for the mezzanine, but found nothing.
Her heart skipped a beat: It's broken!
But he said that in the house, in the inner room, Day King flipped through the booklets kept by the girl, clicked his tongue twice, and began to observe with great interest.
It is not to observe the smooth lines and lifelike exquisiteness on it, but to see the traces of the pages being turned.
Li Qiqi's good treasures at the bottom of the box were almost all half-old and not new, and because she was the only one who preferred this book, she kept two copies at the beginning, and later gave one to Lianzhou for favors, and one for herself. keep it.
Of course, the picture album for returning favors must be brand new.
After the album changed hands, Lian Zhou was left in the cold for a while. He used it to figure it out, and he had his own arrangements, so he had the courage to observe and study.
This booklet is placed under the eyes of Zhou Jing at the moment, and it is still brand new.
Zhou Zhou cherishes books, but he will cherish all the books that he thinks are useful. Obviously, the picture book has not been turned over a few times, but this page...
Zhou Jing glimpsed some clues from it, and his smile deepened. His eyes fell on the vivid obsession between the two women in the booklet, and she sighed meaningfully: So, Zhou Zhou likes this.
In the bookstore, Li Shiqi tilted his head to look at her weak and shy roommate, and asked, "Are you stupid?"
Lianzhou suppressed the shame surging in her heart, and said in her heart countless times, "Don't be discovered by Ah Jing", seeing Li Shiqi's expression of "you are not right", she lightly rubbed the center of her brows: "Maybe I am tired. .It is indeed easy to cause people to be sleepy on this day.”
Li Shiqi agreed with this statement too much, the conversation box opened, and conversations rang out in the bookstore.
His Royal Highness the Seventeenth is not taboo about meat and vegetables, Lianzhou pretended to "know everything", and listened to "Master Li" preaching and teaching with a trembling heart. As for what kind of Tao is passed on, what kind of karma is taught, all kinds of deficiencies are for outsiders to say.
She proudly showed off her "knowledge" in front of the girl, her eyes shone brightly, and she looked proud: "Do you also understand what I just told you?"
Lianzhou never even dreamed that one day she would pretend to understand, in front of Li Shiqi.
she doesn't change face
, the ears turned red: "Hmm..."
Li Shiqi felt that she really understood, touched her chin, and turned to think about it: "Yes, you are a married girl after all. With Brother Jing here, why don't you understand?" She thought hard: "I have something even better. Yes, do you want to hear?"
"No, there's no need." Lianzhou rejected her, and opened the book to review by herself. It has been half an hour, but her heart has not been able to focus on it.
She thought: Do ordinary couples understand this? But she, she...she doesn't understand.
After thinking about it, it still comes down to Ah Jing pity her, Gu Nian is thin-skinned, sensitive and delicate, and dare not play tricks.
Compared with Li Shiqi's eloquent speech, Lianzhou was crushed for the first time in the matter of learning and dared not refute. Rao has endured his shame to delve into the booklet, and has only dared to observe one page in the past few days.
Perhaps because it was the first she had tasted.
Realizing what she was thinking, she blushed and shook her head, trying to drive away the thoughts that were disturbed by Li Shiqi, she couldn't help lowering her eyebrows, and prayed secretly: Ah Jing, please don't go through her dressing table.
Sitting in front of the dressing table with his legs crossed, Zhou Jing looked at it with great interest, picked up a few pages, and put the album back to its original place.
When someone came from the palace, she was sitting at the desk and was concentrating on drawing a booklet for her sweetheart.
Before starting to write, she even thought of the girl blushing, her eyes full of water, looking at the picture of her becoming angry and dizzy, and her heart skipped a beat.
She was disturbed and her interest was interrupted just to start her head. She simply threw away her pen, changed into a plain court dress, and followed the palace people into the palace.
Imperial study...
The new emperor had a cup of tea in his hand, picked up and put down the booklets piled up in the imperial case, and thought for a moment that although the son of the Cui family had a good character, his appearance was not good after all.
After a while, I thought of the Erlang of the Wei family, both civil and military, and handsome, but unfortunately there are too many brothers, and there is no separation. After marrying seventeen, he has to deal with many sisters-in-law. The interpersonal relationship is complicated. Get angry.
Can't think left, can't think right, Shen Duan's face appeared in front of his eyes, and he was so annoyed that he took a sip of tea.
No matter what, he couldn't just watch the imperial sister live with a woman for the rest of her life. What Shen Duan wants, he can make up for her in other ways, but the imperial sister must not be ruined by her!
He was so angry that he sat up and thought to himself: I didn't pursue Shen Duan for seducing Shiqi, but I still have to change the law and try to separate the two gently. It's really hard to be an elder brother.
"What about the Patriarch, why haven't you been invited yet?"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, the Patriarch is coming—"
"I have seen Your Majesty!"
"Ai Qing is free of courtesy!" Seeing her, Li Chengsi's messy heart immediately found its backbone. Zhou Jing was the head of the family, and was also the auxiliary minister appointed by the late emperor before his death.
Li Chengsi asked for something, and eagerly helped him to sit down, the palace servant retreated wisely, the door of the imperial study was closed, and Zhou Jing patiently waited for him to speak.
"Today, today I do have something that needs to be clarified by Ai Qing."
"Your Majesty, tell me carefully, and I will listen with all my ears."
The new emperor talked a lot, but he couldn't just say that Seventeenth Emperor's sister likes women. He said tactfully, "Seventeenth has also reached the age of marriage. The head of the family is familiar with the family traditions of the major families. Do you have any recommended talents?"
It's hard for him to make a decision by himself, if the person he thinks of coincides with the person Zhou Jing likes, then at seventeen, he can marry.
Zhou Jing's eyes were piercing, and his mind was much more than Li Chengsi's. She twirled her fingertips and expected that His Majesty had discovered what happened to Shi Qi and Shen Duan.
Earlier, Shen Duan stayed overnight in the Imperial Palace and lived under the same roof with Shiqi. It must have been at that time that His Majesty bumped into him.
She wanted to help the two of them, and she kept her face calm: "Children of the family, who is Your Majesty leaning toward?"
Li Chengsi handed over the three rosters: "The one I trust the most must be you, the Patriarch. However, the Patriarch has a wife and has no relationship with Seventeen. The rest, the youngest son of the Cui family, Erlang of the Wei family, and Silang of the Xie family, can... "
"But His Majesty still thinks they are not good."
"Ai Qing knows me..."
Zhou Jing looked down at the three rosters carefully: "As far as Yichen knows about His Royal Highness Seventeen, she doesn't like these three."
The short word "dislike" instantly aroused the tension in Li Chengsi's heart. Worried that Shi Qi and Shen Duan's affair would be leaked, he cautiously said, "What does the Patriarch mean by that?"
"Your Highness already has someone he likes..."
Li Chengsi raised his heart to his throat.
"Ranchen doesn't know who she admires."
call……
The heart fell back into the stomach.
Li Chengsi looked at her with a slight resentment: "Ai Qing, don't want to entertain me. Men and women in the world are inevitably fascinated by beauty. I don't want Seventeen to be like this, and be wasted all my life in vain."
"If His Majesty the Seventeenth really loves someone so much that they cannot be separated, His Majesty's kindness will eventually become her hindrance and become a huge rock weighing on her heart. When the brothers and sisters are separated, it will only increase the sigh."
"Does Aiqing think so?"
"If the minister is His Royal Highness the Seventeenth, he would rather give up his wealth and glory than not be loved."
Her words once again aroused Li Chengsi's vigilance, and he couldn't help thinking in that direction: If Shi Qi wants to leave Shen Duan as his elder brother, please leave the royal family...
It's true that she dared to do it and did it!
"Your Majesty, you need to talk to His Royal Highness Seventeen. You don't talk about your family and country, you only talk about what you want in your heart. I think that if your Majesty obstructs you, you will not be able to do what you want. Can you control yourself and your heart?" Can it be managed for a while, or for a lifetime?
Whether His Majesty wants Shi Qi to be a bird with broken wings, or to fly freely in the sky, you have to ask her what she means, and it will be considered a brother-sister relationship for many years. "
She moved it with emotion and reason, and Li Chengsi sent the person away in a daze, with a strange look on his face, and thought: Could it be that Seventeen knew about my plan in advance and asked the Patriarch to be a lobbyist?
But how is it possible.
He is ashamed of doubting Zhou Jing's loyalty.
"Don't talk about family and country, just talk about the heart's desire..." He murmured, "Seventeen's desire is Shen Duan?"
He couldn't forget the scene he saw standing under the peach tree. His Seventeenth, the imperial sister whom he loved and hated the most, was so relaxed and dependent on a woman.
Why, it must be a woman...
Helping Li Shiqi and Shen Duan to stay together, the Patriarch walked home with a smile.
Sitting in the carriage as the sun was setting, Lianzhou nervously twisted the brocade handkerchief in his hand, feeling absurdly guilty.
In fact, it's nothing to be seen by Ah Jing, it's just...
After entering the mansion, she asked Chunhua: "Where is the head of the house?"
"The head of the family has entered the palace to face the saint."
Hearing the day scene entering the palace, Lian Zhou showed a smile on his face, and walked briskly into the inner room.
Ah Jing should have not noticed it.
Besides, why would Ah Jing casually rummage through her things for no reason?
Although she didn't react as soon as the incident happened last time, it was a trivial matter, and she might have forgotten it long ago.
Lian Zhou breathed a sigh of relief.
Go to the dressing table and find the booklet that is pressed inside.
Seeing this thing that had made her anxious and shy for a long time, she smiled, and gradually, the smile stagnated slightly.
was moved...
Although the brocade wrapped outside was still neatly folded, it was not the way she was used to.
Who else can enter their chambers? Lianzhou's face turned red immediately, and she felt a terrible sense of embarrassment, and the unopened things in her hands were almost hot.
Thinking that Ah Jing had discovered her looking at this thing, she was too ashamed to see her.
At this moment, a voice shouted outside the door: "The Patriarch is back!"
Then came the sound of footsteps that the girl was all too familiar with.
The author has something to say: Lian Zhou: This...I...
