The moment Xiao Yi finished speaking, the railing rolled off the table, landed on the ground with a "dong", and rolled forward again.
The atmosphere in the room was a little solemn until an excited cat meow suddenly sounded, "Meow--" The white cat came out of nowhere and excitedly rushed towards the rolling railing, pushing with its paws. Roll, hug and bite...
"Pfft——" Xiao Yi laughed out loud, leaning forward and backward with laughter, like a naughty big boy.
Nangong Yue couldn't help but laugh too, and the room was filled with relaxation and joy.
The maids looked at the cat Xiaobai, but they were a little confused. Should they let it play now, or should they take it away quickly?
Before they finished struggling, the white cat felt bored, jumped over the railing lightly, and then swaggered out of the house.
Nangong Yue watched it leave, and then she looked down at a railing on the ground, with the corners of her lips raised slightly, and said, "Oh, these are the only tricks left."
It is actually very simple to deal with this matter. Even if there is no real evidence, it is just a concubine, and there is no need to have all the witnesses and material evidence like a government case.
It’s just...
Aunt Mei is quite favored by King Zhennan, but now she is pregnant again, which is a bit troublesome.
Finally, the relationship between A Yi and his father has eased. If handled casually, the relationship between father and son is likely to become rigid again.
In the past few years, southern Xinjiang has been facing external strife. Countless soldiers have sacrificed their blood and lives. Ayi has taken the lead and fought **** battles. Only then did he gain this hard-won peace and defend this territory. It seems to be peaceful now, but in fact, foreign aggression has not been eliminated. On the one hand, the surrounding small countries are still ready to make trouble, and on the other hand, the imperial court is always wary of southern Xinjiang. While external troubles have not been eliminated, there must be no more internal worries.
Moreover...
Recalling Xiao Yi's bad reputation in his previous life, Nangong Yue's beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly.
In this life, now that Ayi has her, she will not let these messy things in the inner house affect him anymore.
Nangong Yue looked at Xiao Yi with a smile and said: "...Ayi, the inner house has its own way of doing things, so don't worry about it. I am also idle when I am free, and I will play with her slowly. Yes." As she spoke, she casually ordered, "Aunt Mei will be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver for saving the fifth girl. Que'er, go ahead and do it."
Quie'er responded with a crisp "Yes", and all the maids in the room pursed their lips and chuckled.
Xiao Yi did not speak.
He looked deeply at Nangong Yue, his pair of twinkling peach blossom eyes only reflected her.
His stinky girl was always like this, she thought of everything for him, but he always did too little for her.
He suddenly stretched out his arms and pulled her tightly into his arms. His face was buried in the crook of her neck, absorbing the fragrance from her body...
The maids looked at each other and silently backed away together.
Nangong Yue pushed Xiao Yi away embarrassedly and said, "Ayi, we have to accompany our grandfather for dinner."
Xiao Yi was startled, and then he remembered that he had asked Guan Yubai to go to Tingyuge to accompany Mr. Fang for dinner. He rubbed her with an aggrieved look, then reluctantly let go of his arm.
Nangong Yue breathed a sigh of relief, couldn't wait to take Xiao Yi's hand, and said: "Let's go there quickly, don't keep grandpa waiting."
The two of them went to Tingyuge while talking and laughing.
In the final analysis, Aunt Mei and others have not yet been taken seriously by them.
As soon as they entered the courtyard of Tingyu Pavilion, they saw Xiao Sibai sitting boredly on a branch admiring the faint moon in the sky. He just glanced at Xiao Yi and the others lightly, and then continued to look up at the gloomy sky. .
It seems that Guan Yubai arrived one step ahead of them.
A little maid from Tingyu Pavilion led the way for the two of them. Before they entered, they heard Mr. Fang’s hearty laughter: “…Yu Bai, these paintings are the paintings I had with Yu Cheng from my trip back home. I found it in the house's warehouse, come and taste it for me."
Guan Yubai said with a smile: "Is this picture of Ten Thousand Horses Galloping by Liu Jiuren, a master of calligraphy and painting at that time?"
"Yubai, you really have good taste." Mr. Fang became even more happy and kept talking, "This is Liu Jiuren's early work. When he was young, he called himself Qingshan layman. The lower right corner of this scroll is stamped This square seal was also carved by Liu Jiure himself. Although his carving skills are still a bit raw, he has become a school of his own."
While talking, Nangong Yue and Xiao Yi walked into a studio next to the study. They saw Guan Yubai standing in front of an ink painting hanging on the wall, with Mr. Fang sitting next to him in a wheelchair.
Mr. Fang waved to the young couple and said, "Ayi, Ayue, you are here." After saying that, he quickly ordered the maids to prepare the meal.
Xiao Yi and Nangong Yue stepped forward and saluted Mr. Fang in unison.
Looking at the golden couple, Mr. Fang smiled from ear to ear.
At this moment, the three young men stood there, they were all very rare in the world, and the old man Fang secretly admired them.
When Xiao Yi heard that Guan Yubai and Mrs. Fang were discussing Liu Jiuren's paintings just now, he casually glanced at the painting "Ten Thousand Horses Galloping" on the wall, and with a thought in his mind, he said: "Xiao Bai, I Remember your birthday is coming soon, right? Let me give you a BMW! I have a good eye for choosing horses!"
"Yu Bai, your birthday is coming soon." Mrs. Fang smiled and said enthusiastically, "I just happened to find some good seal stones from Heyu City this time. Can you choose one from them?"
Guan Yubai laughed: "Mr. Fang, Ayi, there are still many months before my birthday."
Nangong Yue on the side lowered her eyes and laughed secretly. The grandparents and grandsons like to give gifts to people, and she doesn't think Guan Yubai has the chance to refuse.
Sure enough, Xiao Yi added with a smile: "Just in time, it will take some time to choose a good horse. When your birthday comes, Xiaobai, I will deliver this BMW."
Mr. Fang nodded in agreement, smoothed his beard, and asked casually: "Yubai, how old are you this year?"
Guanyu Bai replied with a smile: "In a few months, I will be twenty-four."
Time flew by, and seven years passed in the blink of an eye. His eyes darkened, and he smiled nonchalantly.
Mr. Fang felt a little sad. How old was Guan Yubai’s grandson Xiao Yi? However, his grandson had already married and established a business before he reached the age of weak crown, but Guan Yubai was alone...
"Yu Bai, have you ever made an engagement?" Mr. Fang asked kindly as an elder.
Guan Yubai's hand holding the teacup paused for a moment, shook his head, and said calmly: "I used to be at the border, and the war was busy and delayed the marriage... Then something happened at home." As he said that, his dark eyes darkened. , there was a hint of astringency in the warm and mellow voice, "Now I am alone, carefree, and happy, and I have no such plans for the time being."
Of all the officials in the family, only Guan Yubai was left. No wonder Guan Yubai's temperament changed drastically. Mr. Fang was a little sad, but he didn't persuade him. At this age, he has experienced major changes in his life, and he has already opened up a lot. Life is only a few decades in this world, as long as you have a clear conscience!
He smiled lovingly and said: "Yubai, I heard Ayi say that the spring hunting will be in a few days. You and Ayi and the others should go have a good time. Young people should be more wanton. Don't imitate an old man like me who spends all his time in a nest." In the house."
Of course Guan Yubai understood Mr. Fang’s good intentions and agreed with a smile.
Xiao Yi said with a smile on the side: "Grandpa, Xiaobai has promised Han Yu to take him out hunting, and he doesn't dare to break his promise!"
One sentence made everyone laugh.
At this time, the maid came to report that dinner had been laid out.
So Xiao Yi pushed Mrs. Fang's wheelchair to the main room, with Nangong Yue and Guan Yubai following closely behind.
Mrs. Fang usually eats very lightly, but he knows that Xiao Yi likes meat, so this big dinner consists of more than a dozen ways to prepare meat. There are also many kinds of meat, from pork to fish. , chicken, duck meat, shrimp meat and crab meat, all available. Nangong Yue was a little funny and gave Xiao Yi a teasing look.
Xiao Yi didn't take it seriously, picked up the chopsticks and ate happily.
He just likes to eat meat!
He not only ate by himself, but also invited everyone to eat. Unknowingly, Nangong Yue and Mrs. Fang were coaxed into eating half a bowl of more rice.
This dinner was originally enjoyed by both the guests and the host, but unexpectedly, when hot tea and fruits were served after the meal, the little maid from Yuge suddenly came to report that the King of Zhennan had sent someone to see the prince and his wife. Crown Princess.
Soon, a maid in blue was led towards the main room.
Quie'er's eyes moved slightly, and he bowed his head and said in Nangong Yue's ear: "Prince Concubine, this is the maid in Aunt Mei's yard."
Nangong Yue’s eyes flashed, and a hint of a smile appeared on her lips.
She took a sip of the hot tea in the cup and saw the maid in blue walking into the hall with her skirt in hand. She first saluted everyone and then said respectfully: "Your Majesty, Aunt Mei fell into the water and is unwell. The prince ordered his servant to ask the princess to come and show Aunt Mei..."
Before she could finish her words, she heard a lazy male voice say calmly: "Come here, drag down the stick and punish twenty big boards!" How dare a mere concubine ask A Yue to watch for her? What a big face!
The maid in blue suddenly raised her head and muttered aggrievedly: "Your Majesty, this servant is just the successor to the king... ugh!"
She didn't have a chance to finish her words. The next moment, her mouth was blocked by two women. No matter how hard she struggled, she couldn't speak. She couldn't break free. In the blink of an eye, she was blocked by the women. Dragging it off roughly.
Nangong Yue put down the tea cup, the smile on her face not changing.
Although the King of Zhennan doted on many concubines, he did not like anyone to rely on his concubines for the sake of saving face. Therefore, Nangong Yue did not think that he would let himself, the noble concubine and eldest daughter-in-law, diagnose the pulse of a concubine.
Is this someone's deliberate act of disobedience or some other purpose? It's interesting.
Nangong Yue Que'er slightly tilted her head, indicating that she should go find a good doctor.
Quie'er immediately understood the meaning and bowed his knees to retreat.
This small episode passed quickly without leaving a single ripple in everyone's hearts.
After dinner, Nangong Yue and Xiao Yi pushed Mrs. Fang around the courtyard to eat and admire the moon. Guan Yubai was very interested in the paintings in the studio, and got Mrs. Fang’s permission to stay in the studio to appreciate the paintings. .
The Fang family has a long history and profound heritage. The paintings collected by Mr. Fang are naturally not simple. The dozens of paintings and calligraphy in this studio are all of high quality. After Guan Yubai walked around the studio, he took a closer look at them one by one. After admiring it for a while, he stopped in front of Liu Jiuren's painting "Ten Thousand Horses Galloping". After appreciating it for a while, he was about to leave when he suddenly noticed something. His eyes flashed and he stopped again.
Guan Yubai raised his hand and rubbed his slender fingers on the silk frame of the painting, thoughtfully.
The sound of a wheelchair was accompanied by the sound of lifting the curtain. Xiao Yi pushed Old Mrs. Fang in. When Old Mrs. Fang saw Guan Yubai standing in front of the "Ten Thousand Horses Galloping Picture" and seemed to be staring, he smiled and said: "Yu Bai, So you like Liu Jiuren so much?"
Guan Yubai intuitively wanted to reject it, so he heard Mrs. Fang continue: "It's rare that you like Yubai. If this painting is not a gift from an old friend, why not give it to you?"
As he spoke, Mr. Fang's eyes also fell on the painting. There was a bit of nostalgia, a bit of melancholy, and a bit of sigh and sadness in his eyes.
Both Guan Yubai and Xiao Yi vaguely felt that this old friend was an "old friend" who "has gone".
"Mr. Fang, may I ask who gave this painting as a gift?" Guan Yubai asked seemingly unintentionally.
One sentence drew Old Mrs. Fang's attention to Xiao Yi again. The people in this room were all smart people, and they were all thoughtful.
Could it be that...
Sure enough——
Mr. Fang said with some nostalgia: "This was a gift from Ayi's grandfather back then."
Xiao Yi was stunned for a moment, then touched his chin with a smile and said: "This looks like my grandfather's vision."
Old Zhennan King was a rough man. He knew nothing about music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but he knew nothing about swords, horses, swords, etc. Liu Jiuren's painting "Ten Thousands of Horses Galloping" captures the essence of war horses, so it probably caught the eye of the old Zhennan King.
However, it is really surprising that my grandfather would give paintings to his friends!
Guan Yu's white eyes flashed, and he cupped his fists and said, "Mr. Fang, I wonder if you can lend me this painting to take back and appreciate it?"
Seeing that he liked it, Mrs. Fang naturally agreed readily.
Guan Yubai personally took off the scroll, rolled it up carefully, and put it into a long painting box. His careful and meticulous movements made Xiao Yi raise his eyebrows. For some reason, Xiao Yi felt something was wrong. But he remained calm.
After a few people stayed in the studio for a while, Mr. Fang took them to see the treasures he collected one by one, as if offering treasures, and then Guan Yubai left.
Seeing that it was getting late, Xiao Yi and Nangong Yue also left.
After the three of them left Tingyu Pavilion, before Guan Yubai could speak, Nangong Yue said considerately: "Ayi, I'm going back first."
Facing Nangong Yue's clear eyes, Xiao Yi understood that she had also discovered something strange about Guan Yubai.
The three of them split into two groups at the entrance of the courtyard. Nangong Yue returned to her courtyard, while Xiao Yi and Guan Yubai went to Xiao Yi's study.
"Bang."
After the study door closed, Xiao Yi couldn't wait to ask: "Xiao Bai, what did you find?"
Guan Yubai took out the painting from the painting box, touched the silk quilt on top of the painting again, and said with certainty: "Ayi, I just accidentally discovered that there should be another interlayer in this quilt." Every frame must have two layers. Layers are often used to hide things.
Just now, when Guan Yubai was appreciating the painting, he noticed that the top of the painting seemed to be a little thicker than the one at the bottom, and then he discovered that the painting had another mystery.
When he learned that this painting came from the old town of Nanwang, Guan Yubai rashly offered to borrow the painting for a reward.
Xiao Yi's fingers also touched the silk-coated quilt, his fingertips trembled slightly, and he said decisively: "Open it and take a look."
Guan Yubai nodded and got busy.
Of course they could simply and roughly tear off the frame, but no one wanted to do that. Guan Yubai carefully removed the scroll above, dipped the tip of his pen in water, moistened the edge of the frame, and then, little by little, Tearing it apart bit by bit... did not harm the painting at all.
Sure enough, after tearing off the edge of the frame, there was a hollow in the middle, and a piece of letter paper, or a piece of silk full of words, peeked out from between the two layers of frame.
Guan Yubai and Xiao Yi glanced at each other subconsciously, and then Guan Yubai carefully took out the thin piece of silk cloth and spread it flat on the desk.
Xiao Yi only glanced at the silk cloth and said with certainty: "It's my grandfather's handwriting!"
This is a letter left by the old King of Zhennan. Regardless of whether it is left to Xiao Yi by name or not, Xiao Yi, as the eldest grandson, has the right to deal with it first. Guan Yubai considerately avoided it.
Xiao Yi read the letter slowly, silently reading along the lines of text with his index finger. There was no trace of a smile on Yanli's face.
Even if he didn't see the content of the letter, just by looking at Xiao Yi's expression, Guan Yubai could guess that the content of the letter must be of great importance, related to the palace, no, or the entire southern Xinjiang.
Unconsciously, a faint haze appeared in Guan Yubai's heart...
