Rouge wrong

Liu Rongzhi put away the letter, and said to Shen Yunpo who was studying the endgame at the side: "I didn't expect that a little rouge would alarm my emperor brother. It seems that Master Huo values ​​​​that apprentice very much."

She didn't hide anything from Shen Yunpo about this matter, but Shen Yunpo didn't seem to be very interested.

"Oh... have you told Wu Wang?"

"I mentioned it once before, and it annoyed her. If I mention it again this time, she might have to trouble my brother."

Even Liu Rongzhi couldn't help but feel lingering fear when recalling the scene of that day.If Shen Yunpo hadn't come in time, she might really have lost her daughter's hands.

"Wu Wang has always valued the people he cares about."

"But before I separated her from Jie Yu and the others, didn't she obey obediently?"

Shen Yunpo finally raised his head from the chess game, and glanced at her lightly.

"So what's the difference? Xie Yu and the others grew up in the Tianming Sect, and they understand that this is just a short separation. But Yan Zhi has a family, and this separation has nothing to do with her."

"So you're taking sides?"

Shen Yunpo ignored the narrowness in her tone, and just said indifferently: "Wu Wang is my niece, I don't take sides with her, but who do I want to take sides with? Besides, since Yanzhi voluntarily stayed, it was her sister who wanted to make things difficult for others.

I also hope that you and the emperor can deal with it fairly, and don't avoid relatives for the sake of reputation. "

"Okay, I understand your position. Since that's the case, I will go and reject the emperor brother."

Liu Rongzhi's words did not make Shen Yunpo show the slightest joy, but instead deepened the wrinkles between her brows.

Liu Rongzhi sensed her emotions, so he didn't understand, so he said: "Why, are you unhappy?"

Shen Yunpo sighed lightly, shook his head and said, "I'm not unhappy, but worried."

"What are you worried about?"

"You and Wu Wang are mother and daughter, but they are in the same situation. If one day I am gone, what will you do?"

As soon as Shen Yunpo said this, Liu Rongzhi was the unhappy one.

"What do you mean you are not here? Where are you going when you are not here?"

"People have birth, old age, sickness and death, misfortunes and blessings every day. If there is no birth and separation, there will be death."

Liu Rongzhi put the letter aside, got up and sat beside Shen Yunpo.

"We won't be separated again. As for the farewell, unless I die one step earlier than you, otherwise..."

"otherwise?"

Liu Rongzhi smiled, but he didn't think it was a happy smile.

"You know, I can always find you and catch up with you. If you go before me, I will bury us together, no matter how many times we reincarnate, we will be together for life after life."

"It seems that even if I die, you will not let me rest in peace."

"So, you must live longer than me. Only when I die can I stop controlling you."

"It seems that I want to regain my freedom just around the corner. After all, your body is not as good as mine."

"Hmph, that's not certain."

Due to previous internal injuries, Liu Rongzhi has indeed been in poor health for the past six months.But as long as you take care of it carefully, it is not difficult to recover.

Shen Yunpo nodded: "Indeed, the world is unpredictable. However, it is not bad for me to go ahead of you. Death is like a lamp going out. How can there be any afterlife? If you want to be buried with me, you can bury it together." Bar."

Master Shen seemed to have seen through life and death, and talked about this topic in a calm manner.Princess Xinyang is an ordinary person, she not only took this joke-like words seriously, but also got annoyed by the other party's views.

"I don't like to talk about this. Why do you want to separate when you are together? Whether you are alive or dead, whether there is an afterlife or not, I will always be with you."

While speaking, she tightly grasped Shen Yunpo's arm, and her willful appearance was exactly the same as that of Shen Cuo.

Shen Yunpo couldn't help sighing again: "Wu Wang is still like you, don't want to hear things you don't like, and force what you want."

After hearing this, Liu Rongzhi just took it for granted: "She is my daughter, so there are naturally similarities. It's just..."

She paused, and said with aggrieved face: "You only love her, but not me."

Shen Yunpo seemed to realize that no matter what he said to her, it wouldn't make any sense, so he just shook his head, and then turned his eyes to the chess game.

Seeing that she was too lazy to talk to him, Liu Rongzhi said angrily, "What's so interesting about the endgame a hundred years ago? If you want to play chess, I can play a few games with you."

"Your chess is too weak, I'm not interested."

Shen Yunpo spoke ruthlessly and simply, Liu Rongzhi took a breath and said after a while: "It's just that I haven't met strangers for a long time, and you were my defeat back then. You play a few rounds with me, and I'll slowly get over it." back to normal levels.”

Shen Yunpo held the sunspots in his hands, and looked at the chessboard intently, without giving Liu Rongzhi a single look in his eyes, and said lightly: "You have beaten me before, which can only prove that you are smart. But being smart doesn't mean you have understanding, let alone Represents patience.

How can you make progress if your heart is not here?I don't want to play chess with half-hearted people, you might as well let Wu Wang play chess with me, she is better than you. "

Liu Rongzhi was so angry that he was half dead, he finally resisted the urge to reach out and disturb the chessboard, and sat beside him unhappy.

After about half an hour, Shen Yunpo finally solved the mess, and a faint smile appeared on his face involuntarily.

Her expression is always subtle, but it is always very touching.

Liu Rongzhi sat aside and watched for a long time, seeing her smile at this moment, the previous annoyance disappeared.

"Cloud Break..."

"Ok?"

While packing up the chess pieces, Shen Yunpo responded casually.Liu Rongzhi leaned on her shoulder and said with attachment: "As long as it makes you happy, I will do anything."

What responded to her was only a soft sigh from Shen Yunpo.

"I've said it long ago, Liu Rongzhi is no better than before, do you think she still cares about other people's opinions?

The way the imperial court handled the corruption case in Jiangnan last year is the best proof.She doesn't pay attention to such a big matter, so how can she destroy the relationship with her daughter just for a mere rouge? "

Hua Nongying gently blew on the scented tea in her hand, with a leisurely expression.On the other hand, Huo Mingying, who was opposite her, was not so calm.

"Oh, it's because I didn't think carefully. I thought it was just a little girl, and the eldest princess and the emperor would never make things difficult for others. I didn't expect..."

He punched the table and sighed, "I have failed Wutong's trust. I think she has been very depressed these days, and she has no intention of practicing martial arts."

"Hehe, that's really the only thing you care about."

Huo Mingying was exposed on the spot, and couldn't help showing embarrassment: "It's not just because of this..."

Hua Nongying smiled lightly and said, "What is there to be ashamed to admit in front of me? I don't care about it. It's about Zisu's marriage...have you decided how to respond?"

"This..." This is another headache to say, Huo Mingying rubbed the center of her brows, and her voice rarely complained, "It's not about me alone. Zisu is also your daughter, and you are How do you think?"

"The emperor proposed marriage for Zisu, you should understand that he couldn't have proposed this because he cared about your daughter?"

"Of course I know, the emperor is testing me..."

Hua Nongying looked at him with a half-smile: "The fault of this matter is that you realized it immediately and didn't dare to refuse on the spot.

If you had rejected the emperor on the grounds that Zisu was already married without hesitation, how could there be so many troubles afterwards? "

When Huo Mingying came back and thought about it, he also understood, but where in the world can there be so many medicines for regret?

"Then what should we do now? I originally wanted to marry Zisu to Changhong, but this child Zisu...

Sigh, you said that there are so many young and promising disciples in the upright sect, why doesn't she like any of them? "

"Compared to Shen Cuo, which of your disciples can be regarded as young and promising?"

"How can this be compared? Shen Cuo didn't want to go down anymore, he looked at Hua Nongying in surprise, and said in disbelief, "How could it be?impossible! "

Hua Nongying covered her mouth and giggled, "Where did you think? I'm just saying that Wuwang is young and promising. According to your standards, if someone is young and promising, your daughter has to like him?"

Although Huo Mingying has lived with her for many years, she still doesn't understand her thoughts, and looks at her suspiciously: "You really don't mean that? Zisu is really right, no..."

"Nothing? Any other friendship?"

Huo Mingying pursed her lips, looked away, and said in a stiff tone: "After all, she is also your daughter... I know you have a deep affection for Shen Yunpo, and you have never cared about it.

But Zisu is different, Zisu is my daughter, I don't want her...she is like you. "

"I said you misunderstood. With your daughter's temperament, even if she likes Shen Cuo for a while, she will give up after a long time. Don't worry, she is more like you in this regard."

Huo Mingying stared at Hua Nongying, the beard on his cheeks moved, as if he wanted to say something, but finally he didn't say anything.

Hua Nongying looked at him for a while, then smiled and said: "Okay, this matter is actually very simple. You take Zisu to the palace to face the saint, and let her reject the emperor by herself.

At that time, you can also see what this daughter can say. "

"You mean wearing Zisu face saint? How can this be done? What if she offends His Majesty with unscrupulous words and is punished?"

"You say you are sophisticated, but I think you don't understand people's hearts at all. Is the emperor wanting to marry Zisu to punish her?

You need to understand the royal intentions in order to know how to deal with them.You find a time to convey this wish to the emperor.

As for the result, we will know in due time.I may not care about you, but I will never harm my daughter, right? "

Huo Mingying understood that her city was not as good as Hua Nongying, and after thinking about listening to her for so many years, it was not bad this time, so she also nodded.

After Shen Cuo came to the palace, he often took Rouge and Huzi to play in the mountains. Liu Rongzhi asked him a few times at first, but gradually he didn't care anymore.

Yanjing is hot in summer, but the mountains are very cool. Yanzhi and Huzi grew up in the countryside, and this trip into the mountains feels a little bit of reluctance.

There is a mountain stream not far from the palace, and Shen Cuo knew that Yan Zhi could not swim, so he took her to swim from time to time.

The female relatives were together, while Huzi, Shen Ding and others were studying in another place, while the other guards were on guard far away from the mountain stream.

"Rouge, eat some snacks and rest for a while, and practice later."

Shen Cuo taught Rouge in the water. Both of them wore unlined clothes specially used for swimming, and only Xie Yu sat neatly on a boulder on the shore.

The stone surface is flat, covered with a square white cloth, and there are several food boxes beside Xie Yu.

Yanzhi looked at Shen Cuo with inquiring eyes, Shen Cuo nodded, and with a light touch of his hand, he pushed Yanzhi onto the stone.

"You can rest for a while, I will go upstream to have a look."

Rouge studied for a few days, and was used to Shen Cuo going to other places when she was resting, so she obediently agreed.

Xie Yu took a blanket and put it on Rouge's body, but looked at Shen Cuo.Shen Cuo nodded to her, took a deep breath and plunged into the water, and disappeared after a burst of bubbles.

"Drink some hot water. Although the weather is hot now, the water in the mountain stream is cold. Don't catch a cold."

Xie Yu poured a cup of hot water and handed it to Rouge, then carefully combed her wet long hair, and said with a smile, "You have a very good understanding, but you have already been able to hold your breath and dive into water after a few days. When we learned how to swim, Water, I am the only one who didn’t learn it, the young master did not believe in evil but wanted to teach me, but in the end he gave up because of my stupidity.”

Yan Zhi was surprised: "Sister Xie Yu can't swim?"

"It's not so much that I can't, it's better to say that I'm afraid of water. As soon as the water reaches my thighs, I'm stiff and I don't know what to do."

"Ah, is that so?"

"Yes, fortunately, after Wen Shi noticed this and interceded with the young master, the young master didn't force me anymore."

When Shen Cuo is not around, Xie Yu will chat with her.It's not like teaching some knowledge like when I was in the princess mansion, or explaining Shen Cuo's hobbies and habits, but simply talking.

Rouge liked this atmosphere very much, but it couldn't change the growing doubts in her heart.

The two talked for a while, Xie Yu saw that Yan Zhi frequently looked at the water, suddenly patted her on the back, and comforted her: "Don't worry, the young master will be fine."

"Sister Jieyu..."

The more Xie Yu said this, the heavier Yan Zhi felt.She felt that Shen Cuo and the others must be planning something, but she couldn't tell her about it.

"Rouge, you're very smart." Xie Yu put his arms around her shoulders, like an older sister hugging a younger sister, "It's just that sometimes being too smart is not a good thing. The so-called wisdom will be hurt, and it's rare to be confused in this world."

Yan Zhi looked worried, but still said modestly: "I am not smarter than others, and Wen Shi also said that I am more diligent than smart."

Xie Yu couldn't help laughing and said: "That person is old-fashioned, and he always believes that hard work can make up for one's weakness, so it's natural for her to say that because she values ​​you.

It's just that no amount of hard work can make up for something like Huigen.If she didn't have talent, no matter how hard she worked, she would not be able to get the sixth grade and the first place in the exam. "

Rouge showed hesitation, as if she didn't know who to listen to.

Xie Yu smiled slightly, and said to her, "It's good that you understand it in your heart. If the world asks you, your answer will naturally be the same as your knowledge."
