clean

"What makes me satisfied..." Si He only felt that the roots of his ears were burning badly, how could Ji Wanghuai be more seductive than him this time?

Seeing Si He turning his head away uncomfortably, Ji Wanghuai felt amused, "What are you still doing in a daze? Let's go, go eat something."

Jiuqing and Yu Jiang had other things to do, so Ji Wanghuai allowed them to deal with their own important affairs, and rode alone with Si He to Chenxiangfang.

This is the first time Si He is alone with Ji Wanghuai.

Without Jiuqing and Yu Jiang, the ears are much cleaner, but if Ji Wanghuai is left alone, he still feels a little uncomfortable, Si He only thinks that he is full of witty words and can't even say them.

"Ji Wanghuai, where do you want to eat?" Si He held back for a long time before finally coming up with this sentence.

"Isn't it the Chen Xiangfang you mentioned?" Ji Wanghuai was a little strange, he only thought that he was a little reluctant, and said: "You don't have to worry about me, just do whatever you want."

"Well... no, I'll just ask..." Si He felt a little embarrassed, he glanced here and there, and found that there was a piece of jade hanging from a silk sash around Ji Wanhuai's waist, swaying with the horse .

"You look pretty good-looking Peiyu!" Si He blinked his eyes for a long time, then praised: "You really have vision, just like me hahaha."

"Yeah." Seeing him seriously praising, Ji Wanghuai couldn't help laughing: "Of course he has vision."

Seeing that Si He was in a daze, Ji Wanghuai took off the jade pendant and handed it to Si He's palm, with a smile on his face: "Look again."

Ji Wanghuai's fingertips were cold, Si He's palm was touched, and his whole body felt numb and itchy.

A gentle voice sounded in my ear:

"See clearly? This is the jade pendant you gave me."

***

The eighth princess of Linyuan was rejected for marriage!

Although the news was suppressed by the people sent by the Linyuan King, the common people did not know about it, but in the palace the news seemed to have wings, and everyone knew about it.

Since Shang Ruqi came back from Qiguo, he locked himself in the house and ignored anyone who said it.There was a little maidservant who claimed to be the personal servant girl of the Eighth Emperor, and brought cakes in unbelievingly. Not only was her hair disheveled, her nose was bruised and her face was swollen, even a small face was cut open by the pieces of the porcelain plate that held the cakes, which was considered ruined.

When Qiying told Shang Rusheng about this matter, the eldest imperial daughter was casually waiting for her servants to smear red Kou Dan on her slender hands.

"Hey, Qiying—" Shang Rusheng asked disdainfully, "Why do you think so many young ladies, wives, princesses and concubines like to paint this thing on their nails? You are not afraid of rubbing Koudan on flowers when dancing with guns and swords." Is it?"

Qiying coughed lightly and said, "The folks don't know, but the only one in this palace who likes to wield guns and swords is you, the eldest princess."

"That's because they're bored." Shang Rusheng sneered, "Shang Ruqi has learned so much about Qi Guo's female virtues, and Qi Guo has divorced her."

Qiying repeatedly said yes, she just thought that the eldest princess didn't listen to her words, and she was only paying attention to her Koudan nails, so she only said a few words, seeing that Shang Rusheng was interested, she hurriedly continued talking about the palace. gossip.

"Qi Guo is now in such a situation, how dare he refuse Lin Yuan's marriage?" Shang Rusheng clapped his hands and said with a smile, "Interesting."

Fifteen years ago, Qiguo and Chengguo went to war, almost destroying the country.If it wasn't for Linyuan's help and mediation, Qiguo only ceded the wasteland south of the Xunhe River and married Princess Minghua far away, which would have quelled the war and saved the country from being destroyed.

Shang Rusheng is only 16 years old now, and she has no memory of what happened 15 years ago.

"Who rejected Shang Ruqi? There is still such arrogance?" Shang Rusheng asked curiously. The first time she met Qi Guo and Crown Prince Cheng was also at the Cheng Guo state banquet two years ago.

"Qiguo's Fourth Highness, Ji Wanghuai." Qiying replied respectfully.

"Ji Wanghuai?" Shang Rusheng tapped her head, the golden leaf on the hair crown shook slightly, making a crisp sound, she thought to herself, "I seem to have some impression, is it the boy who painted at the state banquet at that time?"

"No," Qiying shook her head and said, "That's the third young master of Chengguo Sifu, and the fourth highness of Qiguo played the piano with this young master at that time."

"So that's how it is." Shang Rusheng straightened his temple hair, cleared his throat, and found himself a step down: "It must be because the two of them look alike, so I remembered it wrong. At that time, one of them was playing the piano and the other was painting. , those who didn’t know thought they were a couple.”

"Princess, you can't talk nonsense about this matter." Qiying hastily stepped forward and covered Shang Rusheng's mouth.

Unexpectedly, many years later.

Shang Rusheng's joke turned out to be a prophecy.

***

When Si He arrived at Chenxiangfang, he was on his own territory. He got off his horse, walked unhurriedly, and asked Xiangniang to vacate a room for them alone next to Guanyue Mountain, which was rare and clean.

"Mr. Si, what kind of happy event is this dressed up for today? Who is this friend behind you?" Xiangniang was sitting and looking through the account books. Seeing that Si He brought someone in, she thought it was from another building from before. Qing Guan, the one who brought him to Chenxiangfang for tea and heart-to-heart talk, spoke out all at once.

"Oh, by the way - you haven't been here yet, I'll show you around! Let's go, the inside is more beautiful!" Hearing this, Si He hurriedly pulled Ji Wanghuai and ran inside, afraid of Ji Wanghuai After listening to it, it will ruin his impression in my heart in the future.

When Si He dragged Ji Wanghuai all the way up to the second floor, seeing that Ji Wanghuai didn't say anything, he was relieved in his heart.

"This place is not bad." Ji Wanghuai took out the bamboo hat, and raised his eyes, revealing a relaxed face.

"As long as you like it!" When Si He heard Ji Wanghuai praise Chen Xiangfang, he was so excited that he couldn't calm down. If Ji Wanghuai was not still sitting here, he would have jumped out of the window and ran to Guanyue Mountain It's been two or three laps. "Xiangniang brought in running water from Moon Lake, then set up prisms a few inches above the bottom of the water to build the floor, and fed some fish fry. You can see these small fish through the cracks in the ground."

When Si He talked about these messy things, he was full of energy, and Ji Wanghuai was not annoyed, but just listened to him carefully, smiling and nodding from time to time, so that Si He could continue talking.

It wasn't until Xiangniang came to knock on the door with the food and drink that Si He scratched his head embarrassingly: "Sorry, I talked too much on a whim..."

"It's okay, I think it's very interesting." Ji Wanghuai took the wine glass from Xiangniang, and filled himself and Si He with the sweet-scented osmanthus wine specially brewed by Xiangniang.

"It turns out to be a young master. Please don't take the nonsense that the little girl said just now, young master." Seeing Ji Wanghuai taking the bamboo hat, Xiangniang had a handsome face, thinking that she might be a wealthy person, and worried about what she just said Contradicting this young master, he quickly apologized.

"I don't blame you for wearing a bamboo hat. It's normal if you didn't recognize it." Ji Wanghuai smiled, and said half-jokingly: "I just don't know that this young master still likes to flirt with flowers and flirt with others. It should be I should thank you for letting me understand this Young Master Si a step further."

Xiangniang saw that Si He sitting opposite had a face that was half smile, half cry, half cry, changing tricks and almost catching up with the face-changing experts in the troupe, she knew that it was not suitable to stay here for a long time, so she quickly put away the plate and left.

"No, no, no! Actually it's not what you think..." Si He considered how to explain it to make him look more innocent and aggrieved.

"You don't need to explain to me." Ji Wanghuai couldn't help laughing, he saw that Si He was like a child who did something wrong, admitting his mistake aggrievedly, he felt a little embarrassed: "I was just joking." .”

Si He quickly put his heart down, and heard Ji Wanghuai say again: "But you are at the right age now, and you have reached the age when you should marry a wife and have children."

We're not the same, let's stop laughing at fifty steps...

"Let's not talk about that, it's still early." Si He sighed, he would never want a son in this life.

He raised his small wine glass, touched the rim of the glass with Ji Wanghuai, and said: "The reason why I asked those young men to come to Chenxiangfang to chat is because I feel that women who have been in the romantic place for so many years can see through things that are broken." More than anyone."

"There are some things I don't want to say to my parents, and I don't want to say it to Jian Jinshan and the others. Si Yan can't understand me. Si Lu is a girl who hasn't even stepped out of her boudoir, so it's not right." Si He was playing with the white porcelain cup in his hand, as if he was telling an ordinary thing.

"So you asked them to chat with you?" Ji Wanghuai was a little dazed, he saw that Si He had many friends, and he never thought that when he had something on his mind, he would actually find a prostitute to help him solve his problems.

"As long as you have money, they can listen to you for as long as you want." Si He propped his head, lying on the table, his eyes darkened. "It's actually pretty good."

"If you don't mind, let me tell you what's bothering you today." Ji Wanghuai pursed his lips, "I'll accompany you."

This is the second time Ji Wanghuai said this word.

Si He was in a daze, he thought he would never hear this word in his life.

No matter how much pressure, how deep boredom, how far tomorrow.

It can't match the other party's sentence - I will accompany you.

"Then...then I'll tell you the truth, don't hold back." Si He joked with his head down, no one saw his red eyes.

He lowered his eyes, not daring to let Ji Wanghuai see his embarrassment

I shed tears because of the sentence "I will accompany you", it is really useless.

"Before you say it, I also have a question to ask you." Ji Wanghuai said suddenly, with a faint smile on his face, as if he was looking forward to some answer.

"If one day—"

"will not!"

Before he finished speaking, Si He snatched him away.

Si He looked at him, his eyes open and serious.

"I will not fight you."
