The man in front of the case pondered for a moment, then said, "He is your brother after all."
A disdainful smile curled up on the corner of Kuangzhi's mouth: "A mere bastard, is he worthy of calling me a brother?"
"you……"
Duke Qi just wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Kuang Zhi: "I remember my father once taught me that a concubine's children are just like kittens and puppies in the family. You don't have to take it seriously. , the father may not know, the son hates those cats and dogs the most."
The sun shone through the window sills on his handsome face but there was no trace of warmth. Kuang Zhi clenched his fists silently: "This matter not only involves the Lin family, but the actor is loyal to the prince. If this matter is not given A satisfactory explanation, then our family will offend Prince Zhongshun."
"Although the crown prince has not yet been decided, Prince Zhongshun is the only prince today, the only brother of the Holy One. No matter which prince ascends the throne in the future, Prince Zhongshun will be the regent."
"Now the Holy Majesty has been reducing the power of our aristocratic families. How many of the four kings and eight princes hold real power besides ours?"
"Your Majesty respects Lord Lin and Prince Zhongshun. If this matter is not handled well, it will be difficult for our Kuang family to gain a foothold in the court in the future!"
Qi Guogong looked at his old and solemn son who was talking about the affairs of the court, and he had mixed feelings in his heart.He should be gratified that his son is so intelligent, but... he is so scheming and doesn't see the bright sense of youth. As a father, he really can't be happy...
At this time, he thought of the adoptive son of the Lin family who was only crowned in the capital. He remembered that he had seen that child once at an official banquet. The official book of the Ministry of Rites——Diao Yuanliang, even Mr. Diao sighed that he was inferior.
And the child of their family who was born with jade, looks graceful in the dim light, the strange reason is that even the Queen Mother likes that child.
That kind of high-spirited and youthful pride makes him look like a young man.
I used to blindly ask this child to be calm, but now that I see the child from the Lin family, I feel that I am a little spoiled.
Duke Qi sighed: "After all, he is your brother. After playing twenty boards and shutting him up in the ancestral hall to think about it for a few days, after all the dust and dust are gone, you will take that evil to Rongguo Mansion to apologize to the two young masters of the Lin family."
"Just twenty boards?" Kuang Zhi was obviously dissatisfied with this punishment.
"Your younger brother has never practiced martial arts or swords. Twenty boards is enough to kill half of his life!" Qi Guogong said with a straight face.
"I'm afraid Prince Zhongshun is not enough." Kuang Zhi said.
"Is it the prince who still thinks it's not enough, or is it you who still think it's not enough? He is your real brother! The second son of the Lin family can protect his righteous brother, so why don't you let your own brother go?"
Kuang Zhi pursed his thin lips slightly, and looked up at his father coldly.
For a while, the study fell into silence, only one or two cries of orioles could be heard from time to time outside the window.
The father and son faced each other quietly, Kuang Zhi's appearance followed his mother's, he could be considered male or female, but his stern face was very similar to Qi Guogong.
The Holy Majesty once said: "Most of the children in this wave are flirtatious and playful, each of them has the same appearance, and they are not like you. They are also the children of Qi Guogong's family. They have a serious face at a young age, and they are born by Qi Guogong himself!" "
After a long while, Kuang Zhi broke the silence and asked: "Father has never paid much attention to brothers and sisters who are concubines in the mansion, but treats the second younger brother differently. You who attach great importance to the reputation of your family, even his wife is lying under others You can steam it with one eye closed, why is that?"
Duke Qi remained silent.
Kuang Zhi pressed on step by step: "Is it because of his mother? After you married my mother back then, you married his mother into the mansion within fifteen days..."
"Presumptuous!" Qi Guogong slammed the desk, furious, "You, a junior, can talk about these things?! Is this how your mother taught you?"
Ah!Embarrassed?Is it because of being poked by yourself in pain?Kuang Zhi couldn't help but sneered when he saw his father, who never showed his emotions, looking so angry.
That's right, in this mansion, his mother can't mention Kuangzheng!
"Does my mother need to teach me?" Kuang Zhi looked at his father coldly, "Back when Aunt Fang was alive, she was the favorite of the housekeeper, and the cost of food and clothing was close to that of the head mother..."
"bump!"
An inkstone hit Kuangzhi's feet, and the ink splashed on his clothes, making ink stains on the white robe, but Kuangzhi didn't move a step, bearing his father's anger very calmly.
"Evil!" Qi Guogong said angrily, "Look at what you have become now? You are not old, the city is so deep, you won't even let your siblings let you go, and you still listen to women's slander. Believe it or not, I will fight you first about you?!"
"Father wants to fight, son should stand next to him." Kuang Zhi showed no extra expression on his face, he cupped his hands and bowed to Qi Guogong, "The case is hard work, father has worked hard, and son will resign."
After all, he didn't care about his father's reaction, he just flicked his sleeves, turned around and left.
Seeing this, Qi Guogong couldn't straighten his waist: "You...do you never have children from concubines in the future?"
Hearing this, Kuang Zhi stopped walking, and the walking stick in his arms shook slightly, making his chest ache a little.
He lowered his eyelids to hide the throbbing light in his eyes, his Adam's apple moved slightly, and said: "My son said that he never liked those cats and dogs. From now on... he only wants to grow old with one person."
After that, he left without looking back.
After listening to his words, Qi Guogong couldn't turn around for a long time, and he only wanted to grow old with one person?
He sneered, heh!still too young...
Rongguo Mansion:
Lin Langyu walked around the garden with Daiyu for a while, then went to talk to Baochai.
In the evening, the two returned to the yard of Lin Ruhai and his wife for dinner, and the family joked happily for a while.
Jia Min secretly told Lin Ruhai about this again. As for what Lin Ruhai planned, that's another story.
Seeing that it was late at night, Jia Min didn't let Lin Langyu and Wen Quxing go back to the yard, but asked Qiaohe to tidy up the left wing and let the brothers sleep there.
After going through such a situation today, Lin Langyu and Wen Quxing were physically and mentally exhausted, so they turned off the lights early and went to sleep.
In the middle of the night, Lin Langyu was awakened by the sound of a piano, and he lightly kicked Wen Quxing beside him.
"Why?" Wen Quxing said in a bad tone after someone disturbed his dream.
"Listen, is there someone playing the piano?" Lin Langyu asked.
At this moment, Wen Quxing just wanted to meet Zhou Gong again. Where could he hear any qin or not, he said impatiently: "Who plays what kind of qin in the middle of the night? Go to sleep, go to sleep!"
"Really! Listen carefully!" Lin Langyu got up and grabbed Wen Quxing by the collar, trying to pull him up together.
"Where is the piano?" Wen Quxing didn't even open his eyes, he broke free from Lin Langyu's bondage and rolled to the bed, away from Lin Langyu.
The sound of the piano has not stopped, and it looks more ethereal through the layers of Cebu.
"I did hear it!"
"That's why you hit a ghost."
Lin Langyu: "..."
Seeing no reason, Lin Langyu had no choice but to lie down and sleep resentfully.He was also very tired today, and he didn't have the mood to find out who made the piano sound, probably it was played by the group of little opera singers who bought it for his relatives.
The sound of the piano curled up, reflecting the soft moonlight, making the night extraordinarily quiet.
Green pillows and gauze kitchens, red candles are shaking slightly, and a peach tree outside the window is silently falling flowers under the gentle breeze.
Daiyu sat alone in front of the qin, picking the strings with bare hands, not knowing where her thoughts drifted with the sound of the qin.
At this time, a clever and lovely girl cut the candle wick, and this girl was Zijuan, the maid arranged by Jia's mother by Daiyu's side.
Later, although the Lin family moved to Beijing, Jia Min saw that Zijuan was alert and careful, and that Daiyu was also on good terms with her, so she still asked Zijuan to serve Daiyu by her side.
Seeing that Daiyu didn't plan to take a rest after sitting for such a long time, Zijuan reminded her: "Girl, it's past the third watch, it's time to rest."
"I'm not sleepy yet." Daiyu looked at the bright candle and said softly.
"Miss was surprised by Mr. Qi Guogong today, and was annoyed for a while because of missing the Bu Yao given by the second master. She didn't sleep in the afternoon, so how can she not be sleepy?" Zijuan said.
Daiyu remained silent, Zijuan thought for a moment, then tentatively said: "Girl...do you have something on your mind?"
"No."
Seeing that Daiyu denied it so quickly, Zijuan pursed her lips and smiled: "That's it."
"What can I worry about?" Daiyu lowered her eyes, her long eyelashes trembling slightly.
"This... I don't know." Zijuan smiled, rolled her eyes, and said, "The girl has been out of her mind this afternoon. She went back to the house and wrote several poems. I can't read them either. Knowing what to write, and sitting here playing the piano for most of the night..."
Speaking of this, Zijuan paused, and said with a smile: "I don't dare to guess what's on the girl's mind. If the girl doesn't say anything, it's fine. It's just that it's already three o'clock. If you don't sleep, the lady will send someone later Come here and ask, what should I do?"
After hearing this, Daiyu got up and said, "I'll just sleep."
Zijuan responded with a smile, she recalled the scene in the daytime, when the girl and the Duke of Qi bumped into each other by accident.
On the cloister, both of them followed a group of maidservants huddling in front of them and hugging behind them. In response to the spring scenery in the garden, the two bumped into each other in such a dazed manner.
Under the exclamation of the maids, they turned their backs to avoid it in a panic. Just this one glance, both of them blushed at the same time...
Zijuan helped Daiyu to sleep, gently closed the gauze curtain in front of the bed, lit the incense for calming the nerves, blew out the candles, and went to rest on the couch in the outer room, bypassing the embroidered painting screen of the blue bird.
Outside the window, the peach blossoms were still falling silently, and the night wind swept the falling flowers into a small pond beside the rockery.
The moonlight is bright and the moon shadow is far away, accompanied by the fragrance of incense, floating like a dream.
"Ugh……"
I don't know who sighed softly, the moon in the water is the moon in the sky, the sweetheart... but the person in the dream?
A disdainful smile curled up on the corner of Kuangzhi's mouth: "A mere bastard, is he worthy of calling me a brother?"
"you……"
Duke Qi just wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Kuang Zhi: "I remember my father once taught me that a concubine's children are just like kittens and puppies in the family. You don't have to take it seriously. , the father may not know, the son hates those cats and dogs the most."
