Sheng Weiqiao cast an eye over Sheng Shuihe, only to see that he maintained that mild smile and calm demeanor as if nothing had happened. Beaming, he gestured at her and said to Zhao Siblings, "These are my two sisters. The older one ranks third in our family also, and the younger one is my Eighth Sister. Still, we have a niece in our group who has visited you before as well. She isn't here, lazing in her room tonight."
Third Miss Zhao came up and curtseyed to them, "You have my greetings, Third Miss Sheng and Eighth Miss Sheng!"
Sheng Weiqiao and Sheng Weiwu curtseyed in return. The three exchanged their names and had a small chat. Sheng Weiqiao's eyes were fixed on this Third Miss Zhao, with whom she had been wishing to make acquaintance. She was fairly a beauty, with her white skin, slim waist, red cheek, and soulful eyes. And the chignon set up on the side with a peony hairpin somewhat brought out the seduction hidden in her immature body of a virgin.
Sheng Shuihe had been feeling impatient for a while. His knowledge of painting was imparted by Huan Guanlan, the celebrated scholar who was accomplished in literature and had somewhat delved into other fields including the zither, chess, calligraphy, and the painting.Huan Guanlan's painting was inferior to his literature. And as his disciple, Sheng Shuihe's painting literacy appeared to be even more inferior, because it wasn't his major subject, and he was too young to study it thoroughly.But Zhao Li was too young also. And though Zhao Family, the family that bred him, was known for its achievement in literature, it hadn't got an artist in its family tree. And in the hope that he would repent his way, Zhao Family didn't formally find him a master, either. He had been teaching himself the painting so far.Hence, he admired Sheng Shuihe, the disciple of Huan Guanlan, very much.However, as a man determined to work for the imperial
“You may find an old acquaintance to be a stranger, and you may see a new friend as a confidant." Huang Wujiu's face also darkened at the name of Sheng Shuihe, but being a man more unflappable than Gao Chengxuan, he managed to keep his refined demeanor despite his cold eyes. He said nonchalantly, "I don't know, for I haven't seen him yet."Unwilling to talk about it in public, he flicked his sleeve and tried to change the subject, "I suggest you go upstairs now, or you'll keep others waiting!"Gao Chengxuan groaned, seemingly unsatisfied with his vague attitude. But still, he managed to gather thirty sticks rapidly by solving some more riddles nearby and then made his way to the staircase in his servant's company... Things would have wrapped up, with the visitors on the ground floor snapping their gaze back, if he hadn't been attracted by Zhao Taoxuan's pretty appearance after taking a few steps. His eyes gleamed, "Miss, may I know your name? I am..."
Huang Wujiu genially cut in, using a knowing tone typical of the doctor, before Sheng Shuihe responded to the servant's censure, "Young man, I'll have to teach you a lesson! The epileptic seizure varies! Some patients have had it since they were young, while others don't have it until they grow older... Even though Childe Gao remained healthy before under your care, it's possible that...""Exactly!" Zhao Li also walked to Sheng Shuihe's side and glared at that servant. He berated him, far more impatient than Huang Wujiu, "Childe Huang is a genius. When he humbly claimed that he went through a few books, he must have made fruitful achievements in that field. How dare you, a mere slave, bring yourself to question him?! Many of us have seen clearly what happened just now. Brother Hengshu only tried to stop your childe from offending his sister by tapping his hand! He shouldn't have reacted so hysterically even if he were a frail man like tofu!""If it's not a
Two maids of Gao Chengxuan were used to argue with others in the back yard obviously, so they knew how to argue well.They were so good at confusing right and wrong. While slandering them, they threatened, "With our Childe's age and status, it's okay for him to be dissolute! If you really cherished the fame of your girls, you should think about what to say and do next! Otherwise, it would be too late for you to regret if all the girls in your family couldn't get married after the rumors ruined their reputation."They were so shameless, so even Zhao Taoxuan, who wanted to pull Zhao Li to prevent him from being too impulsive, laughed angrily, "How dare you two cheap servants slander the girls of the noble family! The wages of sin are death! The luck of Gao Family in the region on the south of Youngtze River will run out soon!""Our Childe is the grandson of Wuan Marquis!" The two maids were not afraid of her words at all, saying with a sneer, "He
When Meng Guiyu brought it up, Gao Chengxuan got angry again. He rolled up the sleeve and showed his arm to Meng Guiyu, grinding his teeth, "I will get back on the family of Sheng Shuihe!!! Uncle, help me in it! Have the brother and sister of Sheng family come here tonight! I will let Sheng Shuihe see in person that I abuse the girl that he protected, and I will have servants, guards even prayers have their good time! He will regret to death!""It seems like that you have done it to yourself!" Meng Guiyu didn't respond to what he said but stared at his arm, frowning, "Is it real?""It is real!" Gao Chengxuan could not believe it and looked at it, "He patted on the back of my hand, and I felt some strength walking through my vine like a snake, making me painful and itchy! I could not bear it!"He stopped halfway, because he saw no wound on his bloody arm except for what he scratched himself!"Is that rude man a modest master?" They
Sheng Weiqiao was standing behind Sheng Shuihe, so she could not see his face. Then, Yuan Liuguang said slowly, "You didn't socialize a lot before, so you have no idea about it. They are the niece and nephew of my mother-in-Law. He is Zhao Li, my fifth cousin. And she is the third eldest among her sisters."Even though the social atmosphere was open, and the names of girls are not secret to the public, Zhao Family, as an educated family, still had their own rules. Therefore, Yuan Liuguang only told them the name of Zhao Li and the ranking of Zhao Taoxuan.And he continued, "He is the beloved son of Aunt Wuyang, Cousin Shengxu. You two have not met before, but you may have heard about each other."Zhao Li and Zhao Taoxuan stepped forwards and saluted again, "It's my honor to meet you, Your Highness!""You're families of Second Aunt." Li Shengxu, also known as Yichun Marquis, nodded. He seemed not interested in Zhao Family. The Grand
"You're all talented, and you drink crisply! Cheers!" Meng Jiayan looked at them and raised the half-left glass in his hand, saying with a half-smile, "I wish you all a successful examination and a career in Imperial Academy, so that you can realize your dreams of all time without wasting the long-time education!"Huang Wujiu and Sheng Shuihe both said, "Thank you for your words.""Ziyue got famous when he was a kid as the genius from Shuzhong known by the country." When they finished their drink, Yuan Liuguang, who was a little drunk, touched the ring on his thumb and said casually, "It is known to all that Shuzhong has lots of talented students, so it is not surprising that he came to Chang'an as the scholar who won first place in provincial imperial examinations of his city! However, for Mr. Sheng, I have never heard of you and I wonder how can you compare with him?"When he said that, the loose atmosphere in the hall got uptight all of a su
The connected lights with braze circle base were only partly lit up, while it was lit up completely by maids in colorful clothes because Sheng Shuihe and Huang Wujiu would use the desk to write, and the light over the desk was even more shinning like day time.They sat on the desk facing each other across a distance.The hall was heated with coal and warm like spring, so the two young and handsome men both took off the coat. Huang Wujiu was in green, writing with calmness, and Sheng Shuihe was in black with handsomeness. When they picked up the brush, people would be obsessed with them.With Yuan Liuguang and Meng Jiayan focusing on the competition, other people dared not to say anything.Li Shengxu had nothing to fear, so he said with a smile, "These two scholars are so handsome. They should not be the winner of the exam, and they should be the third ones with their appearance!""They are still young." Yuan Liuguang s
Shu Zhaoyi lost her soul and returned to the Xuanjing Emperor placed outside the bedchamber, and was about to go in to see how the Xuanjing Emperor slept ... After she came back with the Xuanjing Emperor, because she was anxious to go to interrogate Meng Guiyu alone, she excused herself to drink wine to drown her sorrows, and left the Xuanjing Emperor after she got him drunk.This moment back can not help but go in to see, who knows just to the door to see the two chamberlains eyes and nose guarding.Seeing Zhaoyi come over, their faces all changed, and they bowed tremblingly, saying, "Long live the Empress!""There are people inside?" Shu Zhaoyi asked with a raised eyebrow when she saw that despite their respectful attitude, they never had the intention to give way.The two chamberlains looked at each other, with trepidation in their eyes, knowing that the Shu sisters were in great favor and neither were good-tempered.Especially at this moment, the ne
Shu Zhaoyi's expression was harsh, but Meng Guiyu's face was calm, and he said in a deep voice, "Back to Lady Zhaoyi, I really didn't know about Your Highness's suffering at all!"He glanced at Shu Guifei's remains on the door panel not far away, "As for why His Majesty and Lady Zhaoyi found that Lady Guifei was missing, they issued an imperial edict for the forbidden army to search everywhere, and in the end, it was me who sent Lady Guifei to His Majesty as well as to Lady Zhaoyi.... Ma'am, I reported up before that Lady Guifei wasn't personally found by me, but was reported up after his men found it. personally found, but rather after my men found it and reported it up, I went to see it!""After all, I have been favored by the two empresses and have joined the forbidden army as the Grand Commander of the forbidden army. When the forbidden army discovers a clue, it is natural to report it to me first, and then I will convey it to His Majesty and you, Your Highness!"
"Your Highness!" Meng Gui Yu's expression was somber, his eyes were also red, stepped forward and cupped his fists and said, "After I learned that Your Highness and her attendants had disappeared, I couldn't believe that Your Highness had been in an accident! However, the Queen Consort lived in the Qiongxue Palace and the left side of the inch by inch search down, the Committee did not see any silhouettes, can only be dispersed towards the distance. At this time to listen to the water division side of the report, said the spring wave lake floated up ... floated up a number of people, all for the palace attire, the leader of the even more expensive clothes extraordinary, I ... ministers eleven million hope that it is a mistake!""But the minister to the lake, personally saw this body pomegranate red dress shirt ... I remember, two days ago also see your concubine through ...""This must be which bitchy servant girl, stole this palace sister's robe!!!" Shu Zhao Yi covered
The sky was overcast as if it were night before the rain poured down.In the back room of the assassin's residence, the doors and windows were closed, and it was too dim to see the outlines of things.Yi Liu dressed in Xuan Shirt strong clothing, full head of green silk also with the same color of the handkerchief tightly wrapped up, foot soft sole light boots, quietly stepped over the scarlet ground tangled branches of lotus pattern unicorn play beads rug.The short sword in his hand was coated in black paint, dark and heavy that would not emit any reflections, best suited for the immediate environment.She narrowed her eyes slightly so as not to let the luster between the flow of her bright eyes be detected by her opponent.The thunder outside the house had been raging for a long time, and her confrontation with her opponent had lasted even longer.She's in no hurry.In addition to the fact that this was the Assassin's Palace, the home bas
Rong Sleeping Crane was busy smiling and greeted her, "Auntie! I disturbed you last night, are you resting well now?"Xuan Yu Feng first looked him up and down, saw his gray head and face, and his clothes were dirty, then said in a pleasant manner, "I am an idle person anyway, it is nothing to make a mess once in a while, but it is you ... how did you get this? How to make such a mess? I just saw with you a piece of over the guards, are good, thought you also safe and sound it!"Let's just say that he, "Auntie knows that this child of yours is both literate and skilled in martial arts. But the so-called not in his position does not seek his own politics, you now is not to the district Gongsun clan to sell their lives of the Wuyi camp leader, but the king of the big Mu County, is the husband of Qiao Er, lemonade father of the king! If it is because of the first to fight, there are any shortcomings, you call Qiao'er mother and son in the future how to do?""What's mo
"..." Rong Sleeping Crane froze and said, "Good girl, although Meng Boqin is gone, the Northern Border may not be peaceful ah! And you also know that I secretly came from the Western Border this time, so after settling your mother and son, I will talk to uncle for a few more days, and also have to hurry to return to the Western Border."Sheng Weiqiao said, "You have urgent matters, you go to the western border first! I'll go over slowly with lemonade, at most it's just a few more days of traveling."She frowned slightly, ''Before I left from the Western Frontier in such a hurry, the things I lost down were just that, Geun Li, Ju Li those people, and the twelve niang and whatnot ... I'm telling you, if it wasn't for the fact that you were in the way of Meng Boqin before, and you said that it was safest to take the sea route to leave, I would have wanted to go to the Western Frontier to witness it no matter what. I'd like to go to the western border to see them before I fe
"Think of the good in things!" The plan to use Zhao Shi as a front failed, Rong Yuhe could only go alone to face his wife's doubts, he was on his way to comfort himself, "I can't say that my daughter is worried and scared alone in the camp, and she is satisfied to see that I am well past it. Why is it that things are happening differently from what she told me before, and she's not in the mood to get to the bottom of it, so I'll be able to get by with a few perfunctory sentences?"With that thought he looked down at his neat as new robes, pondered for a moment, and decisively halted his mount!The left and right guards were instantly aghast, taking off the bow hanging on the saddle and nocking arrows from the arrow pot at their waist while asking in a low voice, "County King?""... "Rong Sleeping Crane looked at them as if they were enemies, the corner of his mouth twitched, and said, "It's nothing. Well, you guys stay here, lone go to the side forest for a bit!"
The green-clothed boy heard, a face of "difficult to say" expression, once again look at Zhao Shi, mouth vaguely said, "I do not know how to say ... anyway... several stewards feel very difficult to make a judgment. ...Several stewards feel that it's very tricky and can't make a judgment, so I can only ask the County King to personally decide!"Seeing this situation, Zhao Shi raised an eyebrow and said to Rong Sleeping Crane, "I'm about to go out to see how things are going underneath, you guys talk over here!"Just take the old maid and go.The room is left with Rong Sleeping Crane and the boy, that boy immediately swept away the calm in front of Zhao Shi's master and servant, said in a tone of excitement mixed with inexplicable excitement, "County King! To tell you the truth, you may not believe it: brother Ah Xi, he ... actually slept with the Empress!!!"Yung Sleeping Crane, who has taken a hundred and twenty-thousand percent care and is ready to receive
Zhao Shi sniffed, froze for a good while, before asking with doubts, "You ... you send all the horses of your Western Frontier elite cavalry over? Then what about the direct line that you single-handedly trained?"Not waiting for Rong Sleeping Crane to answer, he shook his head again, "Not right! You kid has always been treacherous, not taking advantage of others would be good, how could you do something so self-sacrificing?!"Mind electric turn, suddenly eyes bright, breathing are a little short of breath, eagerly asked, "I remember you promised Deng Chen Liyu to help him raise his son and grandson ...?""I'm not as old as his grandson, what do you mean by helping him raise his son and grandson?" Rong Sleeping Crane cried and laughed, "It's just a promise to shelter a few of his heirs."Zhao suitable toward him leaned his body, attentive to ask, "The previous dynasty has the emperor Na Ru Ru princess as a consort, when Ru Ru accompanied by 10,000 horses, tha
