Huaiyu is slightly cool

It rained all night, but the next morning, the eldest princess came to Zhou Huai's side despite the rain after having breakfast.

Zhou Huai also got up early, and at this moment, he was kneeling and sitting by the window sill, looking out of the window with his head tilted, looking peacefully and indifferently watching the light rain.

Seeing this, the eldest princess nodded secretly, but her happy mood disappeared after seeing Zhou Huai with her eyes closed, but she still suppressed her anger and sat down opposite.Putting down the books he brought, he asked patiently, "Did you sleep well yesterday?"

Zhou Huai opened his eyes and glanced at her, covered his mouth and yawned before saying, "First I heard the thunder for half a night, and then I heard the rain for half a night." After Zhou Huai finished speaking, he rubbed his cheeks , ordered Yunling to bring the tea set over, and then said to the eldest princess, "Can I have a sip of tea before starting?"

The corner of the eldest princess's mouth curled slightly. She wanted to see what kind of tricks Zhou Huai was playing, so she nodded and said, "No hurry, you can wake up first. It's raining outside, so I won't learn archery today, and instead I will explain Chinese in the morning. In the afternoon, I will practice calligraphy."

Zhou Huai yawned again when he heard the words, looking sleepy.She nodded slightly and did not refute. She took the boiling water and began to wash the tea set and make tea. Her movements were skillful and her posture was elegant, which was pleasing to the eye.After a while, there was a faint tea fragrance that seemed to be there.

The eldest princess listened to the sound of the rain ticking outside and looked at the scene in front of her. Her mood, which had been inexplicably fluctuating recently, gradually calmed down.

After Zhou Huai finished brewing, he silently pushed over a cup of tea, motioning for the Eldest Princess to invite it first.

In order to keep in good health, the eldest princess does not drink tea in the morning, but seeing the bright apricot-yellow tea soup in the celadon cup, as well as the tender green buds, she still holds the cup, and the tea soup is slightly rippling as she moves, and the tea is in an instant. It is fragrant and tangy. Take a sip and take a sip, you can only feel the taste is fresh and mellow, slightly sweet, refreshing and endless aftertaste.After the eldest princess drank the tea, she suddenly felt that the depression accumulated in her heart was swept away with the cup of tea. At this time, she was in a happy mood and relaxed physically and mentally, so she asked Zhou Huai with a smile: "Is this a silver needle?"

Zhou Huai smiled and nodded, but did not point out that the tea was actually Taigrand silver needles, the best of the best white hair silver needles.

The eldest princess put down her cup, and said: "The tea is good, but the taste is a bit bland, which is not suitable for you. Isn't it time to drink Chengwu Yulu from Qingyang County, Yunzhou? Last time the Zhou family sent something to the palace. Send you some?"

Zhou Huai picked up the cup, smelled the fragrance of tea but didn't drink it. He just let the rising mist cover his bright eyes, and after a long time he replied softly: "I liked to drink this when I was in Yunzhou. They knew it, so they just gave it away. This kind of tea. And this tea is just like people, it doesn’t matter if it suits you or not, as long as you like it.”

The eldest princess nodded and said no more.In fact, she doesn't know much about tea. She usually drinks green, fragrant, mellow and beautiful sparrow in her room. When she talks about Chengwu Yulu tea, it's just because she knows that the tea is made of tea green, soup green, and leaf bottom green. , these three green features are famous all over the world.But she did know that there are two people who also love tea, one is Jingdi Wu Mingtai, who prefers Dahongpao.The other one is Xiao Yu, who likes Luzhou Lu'an tea.Although they like different types of tea, both of them are masters in tea tasting and discussion, and she didn't expect that Zhou Huai also loves tea, and his tea art is superb.Thinking of this, the eldest princess couldn't help but take another look at Zhou Huai.

Zhou Huai saw that the eldest princess was not interested in tea, so she put down the teacup and said, "We can start now."

The eldest princess nodded, picked up the books beside her kindly, and took out a book from it.What she brought was not the book of poems that Zhou Huai would use in the competition, but she chose the Confucian classics that educate the world in self-cultivation, governing the country, regulating the family and the world, and she planned to explain to Zhou Huai the principles of life and affairs.

Zhou Huai glanced at the title of the book, and asked in astonishment, "Did you get it right?"

"No." The eldest princess replied lightly.

"Then you are afraid that the Wei family will not be able to pay the bet?" Zhou Huai said provocatively.

The eldest princess was stunned. Yesterday Zhou Huai asked her why she didn't ask about their bets in the game. The eldest princess replied indifferently: "The only thing she can bet on is her long-time friends."

At that time, Zhou Huai spread his hands and replied, "I'm not interested in her dowry. The bet is that the loser promises the winner three conditions."

The eldest princess gave Zhou Huai a sideways look in surprise, and then said, "Forgiveness and forgiveness, do you still want to win the entire Wei family?"

At that time Zhou Huai smiled mysteriously and did not answer.At this time, Zhou Huai found the right opportunity and came back with revenge: "You are so partial to Wei Xuan, even if I win, I dare not ask the Wei family to bet."

"You can win first." The eldest princess replied bitterly.In fact, she really didn't want this match in her heart, and she wasn't interested in knowing what the bet was, and she didn't care about winning or losing in the end. She just wanted to teach Zhou Huai to walk on the 'right way'.The kind and upright eldest princess wants to lead by example, educate the world with her own strength, and stick to the right way in the world. Unfortunately, the ideal is beautiful, but the reality is very skinny, because many facts prove that there is no necessary causal relationship between knowledge and morality, and it can be a good person A strong shield standing upright can also be a sharp knife in the hands of bad guys.It's just that the eldest princess doesn't understand this at this time, and when she understands this truth, it will be too late.

At this time, Zhou Huai was not a good student, but the eldest princess taught very seriously: "If people do good, even if the blessings have not come, the disasters will stay away. If people do evil, even if the disasters have not yet come, the blessings will stay away. Do you understand what it means? ?”

"Understood, it means that good people don't live long, and disasters last for thousands of years."

The eldest princess glared: "You are the scourge!"

Seeing the angry and helpless look of the eldest princess, Zhou Huai smiled: "Well, you are that good person."

The eldest princess took a deep breath, and after persuading herself in her heart, she continued: "When a gentleman is involved in the world, he should not take his happiness and anger lightly. If his happiness and anger are light, his confidantes and gallbladders will be seen by others; when it comes to things, he should not focus on his love and hatred." , love and hate are heavy, and the spirit and spirit are all controlled by things. What do you mean?"

"don't know."

"That is to say, don't reveal a person's likes and dislikes easily... Do you really want to learn?" The eldest princess immediately reacted after finishing speaking, and added: "If you don't want to learn, you have to learn!"

Zhou Huai complained feebly: "Then why are you asking me?"

The eldest princess looked at Zhou Huai who was lying on the bed and fell asleep, and finally couldn't bear it anymore: "It doesn't matter if you don't understand anything, I can teach you, but you must correct your attitude first!"

Zhou Huai looked at the snarling eldest princess, who was still lying there motionless. Seeing the eldest princess glaring at her angrily, she even returned an extremely bright smile, and the angry eldest princess turned red and then blue.

The eldest princess finally understood that it was extremely difficult for Zhou Huai to learn about books and rites. Wu Mingtai asked her to teach Zhou Huai secretly, and she probably had to find another expert, because she really didn't have the patience.

Zhou Huai's seriousness was only the time for a cup of tea, and after that, he changed from kneeling to lying on the desk, and finally to lying on his side.In the eyes of the eldest princess, Zhou Huai's expression at this time was as vivid as if his body and mind had been raped, life would be worse than death.

"Let's rest for a while." The eldest princess said helplessly.Seeing Zhou Huai immediately relax, with a relieved expression, she couldn't help but sighed.His gaze swept across the room at random, and finally he was attracted by the small half of the book covered by the mat beside him, because the cover said '36', and the lower half of the word 'six' was covered by the mat, the eldest princess thought It was "36 Strategies", and I was a little surprised and said, "Do you still read military books?"

Zhou Huai was taken aback when she heard that, there was no book in the room at all, and then she suddenly remembered something, and immediately got up to grab it, but the eldest princess had already pulled out the book and opened it directly.

The eldest princess looked at the illustrations inside, and there was a name under the picture, and an explanation was marked. Her face turned red in an instant, and she closed the book abruptly.She took a closer look at the cover, and it actually said "Type 36"!

Zhou Huai stopped all movements after the eldest princess opened the book, and asked cautiously with an innocent expression: "If I say that this book might have been sent by my seventh brother in a box, would you believe me?"

The eldest princess raised her eyebrows and sneered coldly: "Then why do you keep it?"

Zhou Huai smiled a bit wretchedly: "You can study when you are bored. I heard that this kind of book is not easy to buy."

After the eldest princess heard this, the anger that had just been suppressed soared to the highest level.She threw the book heavily on the desk, got up and wanted to leave.

Zhou Huai hurriedly held her back: "Hey, don't go!"

The eldest princess said coldly: "Let go!"

"Uh." Zhou Huai was a little afraid of the eldest princess's cold face, but he still didn't let go of his hand despite being afraid. Instead, he focused on diverting the eldest princess's attention first: "Wu Mingtai should come to talk to you in the near future."

Sure enough, the eldest princess stopped struggling and asked, "What did he want from me?"

"Probably between us."

The eldest princess was still angry, and said coldly: "Do I have anything to do with you?"

"That's a good answer." Zhou Huai praised with a smile, and the joke flashed in his eyes.

The eldest princess keenly captured Zhou Huai's expression and frowned slightly.She knew that Wu Mingtai was unlikely to believe her words, but if Wu Mingtai really came to her for questioning, did it mean that Zhou Huai had betrayed herself?Ever since Zhou Huai lived in Yongle Palace, she used her curiosity to tell herself all the secrets that she should know and should not know, and lured herself into her pirate ship. , the relationship between the two must be close, but only the eldest princess knows, and she still can't tell the truth in Zhou Huai's mouth.Thinking of this, the eldest princess stared at Zhou Huai coldly.

Zhou Huai didn't know what the Eldest Princess was thinking of, but seeing the unfriendly expression on the Eldest Princess, he could only sigh inwardly, and helplessly changed the subject: "There are also foreign envoys to propose marriage."

"Isn't Ming Sheng the one who married?" The eldest princess knew that this matter was not a secret, looking at Zhou Huai's eyes that rolled quickly, she didn't know what the hell she was planning.Then he snorted coldly and wanted to leave.

So angry!Zhou Huai was still reluctant to let go, so he had nothing to say and asked, "It's His Majesty's birthday at the beginning of next month, have you prepared any presents?"

For Wu Mingtai's birthday gift, Zhou's family helped Zhou Huai prepare her share and sent it to the palace.

The eldest princess knew that Zhou Huai's mind was not on these trivial matters at all, so she cast a cold glance at Zhou Huai, sat back to her original position, picked up her book and said lightly: "You should be concerned about the competition now, right? "
