Subversion of the plot [Comprehensive]

There are a lot of dignitaries in Chang'an, but in general there are only so many big families. Although it was unexpected to meet Su Long's cousin, it is also reasonable.Tao Shuobai has seen the plot, Su Long, as the eldest brother-in-law, is upright and has helped Wang Baochuan and Xue Pinggui a lot, but the second brother-in-law Wei Hu is vicious and grudges, coveted Wang Baochuan's failure back then, and has always secretly hated him.

Su Long knew that his seventh younger brother had always had ideas, since he was able to bring his friend back, he was obviously a good person, so he didn't interfere much.

Su Yi brought Tao Shuobai to his courtyard, and ordered his servants to tidy up a room next to his bedroom, and pick out the best utensils and furnishings.After giving the order, Su Yi asked him to have tea in his room for the time being. He had just come back from outside, and he had to go to pay his respects to the old grandmother, which also meant to tell the old grandmother that everything was well.

After he left, Tao Shuobai looked around in the courtyard, there was nothing wrong.

Guessing that the evil spirit only comes at night, there must be another hiding place, it is cunning!

Not long after, footsteps came from outside the courtyard, and there was more than one person, and it was a woman.Just wondering, but seeing a few maids come in surrounded by a charming young lady, her bold and agile appearance looks a bit like a matchmaker.

Tao Shuobai probably guessed the other party's identity, just glanced at it, and continued to drink the tea in his hand.

The person who came was the youngest daughter of the Su family, known as Su Xiaomei, who was just sixteen years old.

Su Xiaomei was curious because she heard that the servants said that Brother Seven had brought back a young man who was described as noble and noble, so she came to take a look.The Su family is also a noble family. She has met many outstanding men since she was a child, and some of them are better-looking than the ones in front of her.This person has a kind of aura of absolute dust, but it does not make people feel aloof, peaceful and natural, clearly close in front of his eyes, but seems far away in the sky.

There were not so many taboos between men and women in the Tang Dynasty. Su Xiaomei walked up to her blushing, and said softly, "Are you Brother Seven's friend? Why haven't I met you?"

"just met."

"Just met?" Su Xiaomei's eyes widened in surprise. Outsiders don't know, how can she not know?Her family's seventh brother looked weak, and had the most ideas in his heart. Even the elder brother who was an official often asked him for his opinion.The Su family has more boys than girls, and Su Xiaomei is the youngest. She is very doted on by the family, but she is afraid of this seventh brother and never dares to make him angry.

"Little sister!" Said Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived.

As soon as Su Yi came back, he saw Su Xiaomei standing beside Tao Shuobai. She was handsome and pretty, obviously a good picture, but it made him feel extremely dazzling.

Outsiders couldn't hear it, but Su Xiaomei could hear that Brother Seven was unhappy, thinking that she was disturbing the distinguished guests, she quickly explained: "I just came here, just curious about Brother Seven's friends, I didn't do anything."

Su Yi didn't speak, but looked at her.

Su Xiaomei was immediately defeated, she didn't care to bid farewell to Tao Shuobai, and hurried away with her maid.

Su Yi then smiled apologetically and said: "This is the younger sister of my third uncle's family. She has been spoiled since she was a child. Maybe her words are reckless, but her thoughts are not bad."

"En." Tao Shuobai didn't take it seriously at all, seeing his special explanation, he had no choice but to respond.

Su Yi was just probing. Seeing him so calm, he felt relieved, and said with a smile: "I told my grandma, please stay at home for a while, grandma is very happy, and specially ordered the kitchen to add vegetables at noon. What do you like to eat?"

"Young Master Su, just be polite." Tao Shuobai was greedy, but he didn't mean to be polite, but he didn't know the dishes in the world, let alone which ones were delicious.

Su Yi frowned, with a bit of displeasure on purpose: "You and I hit it off, we met for a while, why call me a son, it seems too distant and polite. I call you 'Shuobai', you can call me 'Qilang', or 'Junshi'. Junshi is my word."

"Junshi..." Tao Shuobai has always had an excellent memory, and Du Que's character is also Junshi.

Su Yi only thought that he was calling him, and couldn't help but smile, his already handsome face became even more outstanding, even Tao Shuobai took a second look.

The lunch is delivered directly to the courtyard, with ten or twenty dishes, all of which are delicious, delicious, and even a jug of Bingtang spring wine.

Tao Shuobai was already dazzled by the dishes on the table, he tasted every dish, and then chose what he liked.Su Yi was considerate in hospitality, observed secretly, moved his favorite dishes to him, and told him anecdotes about the dishes.Tao Shuobai eats and listens happily, and even compares Du Que with Su Yi. After all, Su Yi is good at talking.

When Su Yi poured wine for him, he did not refuse.

Smelling the clear aroma of wine, taking a sip, I couldn't help frowning.

"Why, this wine is not good?" Su Yi's words were against his will, Bingtangchun is a high-quality wine, even a tribute wine, especially this pot has been cellared for ten years, so it is rare to get a thousand gold.

Tao Shuobai touched his slightly hot face, and sighed: "It's the first time I drink alcohol, so I don't know if it's good or bad, it's just that I don't get used to it for a while."

"Oh." Su Yi's eyes flashed, and he persuaded: "To be honest, this wine is very rare. If I hadn't repeatedly begged, brother would not be willing to take it out. The opportunity is rare, so you should savor it carefully."

Tao Shuobai drank a cup and refused to drink any more, not because he was afraid of getting drunk, but because he didn't like the smell of alcohol very much.

Su Yi felt a little pity, but he didn't try to persuade him any more.

Most of the meals went into Tao Shuobai's stomach, Su Yi only moved a few chopsticks and drank half a bowl of pigeon soup.After the meal, Su Yi sat on the low couch, reclined against the pillow, closed his eyes, seemingly sleeping but not sleeping.

Tao Shuobai took a closer look, and found that his face was a little pale, his breathing was very light, and he was very mentally exhausted.After careful study, Su Yi didn't do any tiring things today, which also shows his poor health.Not to disturb the other party, Su Yi's bedroom is two open rooms, very spacious, with a lattice shelf embedded in the wall in the middle, full of books of various colors.

Randomly picked out a book and flipped through it.

I don't know when two maids came in from outside the door, walking slowly, one of them was holding a copper basin towel, the other was holding a small cup of clear water, and there were black pills the size of longan in the small white porcelain dish.The two stopped in front of the couch, and the first one called out in a low voice: "My lord, take your medicine."

With only one call, Su Yi opened his eyes.

He wiped his face and hands first, then gave the pills with water, and waved his hand to order the maid to leave.

Tao Shuobai thought to himself, this person is born weak, and taking medicine is useless, but he also knows that ordinary people need psychological comfort, especially the rich and powerful, even if they are not sick, they still need to take medicine.

"Shuobai, can you play chess?" Su Yi asked suddenly.

Tao Shuo paused for a moment, then replied, "I understand a little bit."

It seemed that no one had called his name before, and it was really uncomfortable all of a sudden.

As for playing chess...he still learned it from Du Que. Although he learned it quickly, he never won a game.He couldn't help guessing that this celestial being who has experienced many calamities must be a person who is proficient in chess, and he has not forgotten this goodness no matter how many times he reincarnated.

The two set up a chess game by the window, Tao Shuobai holds the white pieces, Su Yi holds the black pieces.

Originally thought that the other party's "understanding" was a modest word, but in a game of chess, Su Yi raised his eyebrows, he is really a novice.Su Yi is good at chess and rarely meets opponents, so he has a lot of time during the game, and almost instinctively focuses more on the opponent.

Tao Shuobai's appearance is outstanding, this is a fact that anyone can understand at first sight, but they are both men, and their appearance is comparable, Su Yi is still fascinated by it.

The overly focused and fiery gaze drew Tao Shuobai's suspicious glance.

Su Yi withdrew his gaze and smiled calmly: "It's settled?"

"En." Although Tao Shuobai has been defeated repeatedly, he abides by the rules of the chess game very much and has no regrets about his moves.

When Su Yi watched, his fingers had just left the chessboard.His hands are also very well born, slender and powerful, with well-defined joints, more radiant than white jade chess pieces.Su Yi tried his best to endure, so he didn't rush to grab the opponent's hand impulsively.

Su Yi deliberately made two wrong moves, prolonging the game process.

In the middle of the journey, Su Yi suddenly asked: "Is it a ghost that is staring at me?"

Tao Shuobai nodded.

"Then, how will the other party treat me?" Su Yi's expression did not change, it seemed that he was just asking out of curiosity.

He hesitated a little, but in the end he told the truth.

Su Yi's eyes were gloomy, and the corners of his mouth seemed to be a smile but not a smile: "So that's the case. In this way, I am indeed in danger. I don't care about it myself, but my grandmother is old and always loves me. If something happens to me, my grandmother will definitely suffer. Can't live."

"Don't worry, if he dares to come, I'll be here." Tao Shuobai is still very confident in catching ghosts.

"But I'm worried that he has some other tricks. What should you do if you don't find him coming? Besides, I have never seen a ghost when I grow up. If I say I am not afraid at all, I will not believe it. " Su Yi showed a trace of worry, and said sincerely: "If you don't mind, can you share the same room with me?"

"If you're afraid, I'll watch over you at night." Tao Shuobai didn't care, it didn't matter if he didn't sleep anyway.

Su Yi didn't know this, seeing that he responded readily, the worry in his brows and eyes disappeared, and said with a smile: "Then you and I will go to sleep tonight."

Fall asleep?

Tao Shuobai was stunned, aren't they in the same room?How could it be that you fell asleep on your feet?Tao Shuobai didn't guess Su Yi's thoughts at all at this time, he was just worried, if he was lying on the same bed, wouldn't he pretend to be asleep?

"Seventh brother! Seventh brother!" Su Xiaomei's cry came from outside the courtyard, and then a figure of Qiuxiang came running with the fragrant wind.

Su Yi was very unhappy to see her, glanced at her, and said in a lukewarm voice: "What are you doing in such a panic?"

Su Xiaomei only felt her scalp go numb, and while laughing, she straightened the messy skirt and said, "Brother and sister-in-law went out just now, guess what? Wang Baochuan went back to Wang's house early in the morning, but You didn't even let the gate in, and you're still kneeling outside right now."

Although Su Xiaomei didn't see what happened 18 years ago, since Xue Pinggui made Pingliao king, the news about Wang Baochuan has spread widely.

Su Yi narrowed his eyes slightly, but he had a question: "I went there early in the morning, kneeling outside the gate of the Wang family, why did my eldest brother and sister-in-law go only now?"

On the other hand, Wang Baochuan is a woman after all, and it's not the end of the moment, how many hours can she insist on kneeling without fainting?Su Yi intuited that there was another mystery in it.

Where did Su Xiaomei think so much, she felt strange after he asked, "That's right, Brother Seven, what do you think is going on?"

"I didn't go out. Aren't you idle? Why don't you go watch the fun?" Su Yi didn't know her temperament, and she always stayed where the fun was.

"Brother Qi is also free, Brother Qi is not going?" Saying this, Su Xiaomei's eyes are looking at Tao Shuobai.

Su Yi felt that she was an eyesore more and more, so he placed the chess piece heavily, making a crisp sound.

"Are you inviting me?" Su Yi asked lightly.

"No, I'm just talking casually, I'll go by myself." Seeing that he was angry, Su Xiaomei didn't dare to stay any longer, and ran away immediately.

Tao Shuobai didn't care about the appearance of the two brothers and sisters at all, even when they heard about Wang Baochuan, they just paused, and then just thought about the chess game.
