The path of the villain is not easy

Chapter 45
Seeing the enlightened look on Ke Ren'er's little face in front of him, Changsun Ji felt a little ashamed, not to mention that Zi Zhu didn't understand, he himself didn't know what he was going to say.

But he doesn't want to lose face in front of his own woman!Even if you pretend, you have to pretend to be profound.He can't say: "I feel like I wrote it based on myself. I seem to be the big villain in that play. I can't write myself to death!"

"Okay, okay. Don't be sad, I'll tell you another story." As soon as Changsun Ji finished speaking, the sadness on Zizhu's face disappeared instantly, and she looked at him seriously.

At one point, Changsun Ji suspected that Zizhu was learning to change his face, and his idea of ​​telling a joke to ease the atmosphere changed instantly.Changsun Ji pondered for a while and said, "Let me tell you a story about "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai"."

Just as Changsun Ji opened his mouth to speak, he seemed to think of something, his face changed, and he changed his mind again: "Forget it, this story is not fun. Let's change it, and I will tell you the story of Lorio and Juliet!"

Zizhu nodded, for her, as long as there are stories to listen to.At this time, there are too few entertainment programs for people.For example, Changsun Ji wrote her a story about "The peacock flies southeast and wanders ten miles away."

As a result, Zizhu saw her several times a day, for several days in a row.I still read it over and over again with gusto, not feeling bored at all, which made Changsun Ji lament that the ancients were easy to be spiritually satisfied, and at the same time lament that there are so few entertainment items in this era.

In the evening, Changsun Ji received an invitation.Originally Changsun Ji was a little curious about who sent it to him. He didn't have many friends in the capital, but he just made two enemies.

Changsun Ji opened the envelope, staring at the contents of the invitation in a daze.This invitation was written to him by Princess Taiping. The Lanhui troupe, one of the four most famous theater troupes in the country of Yan, has come to the capital. Princess Taiping invited him to go to the theater together tomorrow.

There are troupes and operas in this world.This is also one of the few entertainment items for dignitaries, but this is not the reason why Changsun Ji is in a daze.

Changsun Ji was in a daze because he didn't know how to treat Princess Taiping.Since the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala, Princess Taiping has invited him three times, but he declined all of them. He really didn't know how to face her.Princess Taiping's enthusiasm made him unable to accept it for a while.

The so-called thing is only three, this is already the fourth time for him, this time he has to meet Princess Taiping no matter what.

He is very entangled with Princess Taiping, because subconsciously he always feels that Princess Taiping is so warm and kind to him, she must want to harm him.Just like how he treated Princess Ling An with hospitality before.He has always firmly believed that there is nothing to do to be courteous, and it is either rape or robbery.

The next day, Changsun Ji stood in the yard practicing his sword skills.Suddenly seeing a person walking out in a hurry from the courtyard, Changsun Ji took away the Yanling Saber and shouted to the shadow: "But Zichan?"

The black shadow stopped when he heard Changsun Ji's voice, and then walked towards Changsun Ji. "To pay my respects to the lord, I wanted to go out secretly, but I didn't expect to interrupt the lord's practice."

That black shadow was Shen Qiuyi.

"What did Zichan say? Don't bother me." Changsun Ji said.As Shen Qiuyi walked in, Changsun Ji looked at Shen Qiuyi in the weak light before dawn, and couldn't help but laugh.

I saw that Shen Qiuyi had two huge dark circles under his eyes. At first glance, he really looked like a national treasure from his previous life.

"Zichan, you should pay attention to rest recently. Do things in a moderate manner. If you are exhausted, it will make my heart hurt. You see that your dark circles are so heavy, as if someone smashed it .”

"Hehe." Shen Qiuyi twitched unnaturally, and then said: "Thank you for your concern, Lord, Zichan will pay attention."

At this time, the sky was not yet dark, and Changsun Ji didn't see the unnaturalness on Shen Qiuyi's face, so he smiled and said, "Okay, don't go out, go back and rest for me, if there is something to do, I will get back to sleep." It's not too late to do it. If I meet you next time and still have two dark circles, I can't forgive you. "

"My lord..."

"Come on, don't you listen to me?"

Seeing Shen Qiuyi's denial, he said, "Okay, if you're told to go, you can go."

Shen Qiuyi agreed with some embarrassment, exchanged a few words with Changsun Ji, and then turned back to her room.

Changsun Ji looked at the back of Shen Qiuyi who was going away, and smiled.He hadn't seen Shen Qiuyi in the past few days, and this guy left the Hou Mansion early in the morning every day, and didn't come back until very late.I don't know what I'm busy with, and Changsun Ji doesn't care.

However, I just met him today, and I saw him with dark circles under his eyes.Knowing that he must be tired recently, Changsun Ji persuaded him to go back to rest. After all, caring for subordinates properly can improve the intimacy between each other.

When dawn came and the sun was spreading its brilliance again, Changsun Ji accepted the exercises.After simply washing off the sweat stains on his body, he ordered Zizhu to bring breakfast from the kitchen.

Changsun Ji's breakfast is very simple, a bowl of meat porridge with a few pieces of sweet-scented osmanthus cake, and a dish of side dishes.After replenishing the energy of the morning activities, Changsun Ji stretched his waist as soon as he put the bowls and chopsticks away, and started a happy day.

He was going to meet with Princess Taiping today, so after breakfast, Changsun Ji changed into a samurai uniform under Zizhu's service, and changed into a white dress with blue patterns that he could go out to meet friends with.

After everything was tidied up, Changsun Ji took Zi Zhu, boarded the carriage of the Hou Mansion, and ran towards the theater.The opera building is the place where these troupes perform and sing. Generally, some mobile troupes will set up a venue in the theater to perform and earn some money.

However, Lanhui Troupe, one of the four major opera troupes in Yan State, naturally wouldn't be so petty, and rented the entire first and second floors of the theater to Lanhui Troupe.

When Changsun Ji's carriage arrived at the theater building, the performance was about to begin.As soon as Changsun Ji got off the carriage, he saw a person at the door with a happy expression on his face, walking straight to Changsun Ji and saying hello to Changsun Ji.

"The little one has been waiting for the young master for a long time. Princess Taiping is in the bamboo pavilion. The young one is leading the way for the young master."

When Changsun Ji saw this guard for the first time, he felt a little familiar.Hearing his words, I remembered that I had seen him beside Princess Taiping.Since Princess Ling'an was assassinated and died, Emperor Yan assigned several guards to each of his children, and this person was a member of Princess Taiping's guard team.

Changsun Ji nodded, called the invitation card to the guard, took Zi Zhu and followed the guard in front of him into the theater building.

The theater building has three floors. The third floor is an attic, and the second floor is a single room. The middle area is hollowed out and connected to the first floor.On the first floor, apart from a theater stage built in the north, there are several tables with a pot of tea on it for the audience to quench their thirst.
