After the prince enters the play

Chapter 191 192: Does His Royal Highness agree?

One morning, a group of people were all so tired that they sat on the ground panting, only Su Yi and Su Xinyi were able to move normally, and even Su Qi sat on the ground panting for breath.

Su Yi is taking a rest today, seeing a group of younger brothers is a headache, so where is this going, what should I do?

Su Xinyi put away the spear long ago, looked at his elder brother and said, "It's really not good."

Su Yi blushed, looked at his younger sister and said: "Your brothers have always focused on studying, and they practiced at home in the early years, but since they went to the academy to study, they have been delayed, and they should gradually pick up after practicing more days. .”

Su Xinyi nodded, "Brother, I'll take a step first."

Su Yi nodded, "Go and do your work, I'm taking a day off today, so I'll just watch over here."

Su Xinyi smiled, she didn't mean that, but the eldest brother didn't refute after saying that, and after saying hello to several brothers, he strode away.

As soon as Su Xinyi left, Su Yi sat cross-legged on the ground, shaking his head while watching a group of younger brothers.

Su Qi took a breath, "Brother, what are you going to do today?"

Su Yi thought for a while and said: "On the first day of today, you should familiarize yourself with it in the morning, punch a few times in the army, and stretch it. In the afternoon, the second uncle and the third uncle will come over, and we will talk about what to do when the time comes. .”

Su Ju struggled, looked at her elder brother and asked, "Brother, you must practice martial arts."

He still prefers to read.

Su Yi thought for a while, then shook his head, "I don't know, but our family's children don't have the ability to be the best in the academy. In the future, the top three in the Jinshi examination must be missed by you. It's better to practice martial arts."

Su Chu wiped off his sweat, and said, "However, the future of martial arts may not be the best. In the army, you have to gain qualifications. Step by step, I don't know how many years it will take."

Su Yi looked at Su Chu, "That's true, but don't forget one thing, the Su family is based on martial arts, and its roots in the army are deeper than other families."

Everyone sighed, Su Qi lay down on the ground, looked up at the sky, then suddenly sat up and looked at his younger brothers, "Sixth younger sister was named the crown princess, which means that the Su family and the crown prince stand together and face each other. Those who stand opposite the prince in the hall will definitely take extra precautions against the Su family. Under such circumstances, if you take part in the scientific examination, isn't it a self-inflicted trap?"

Military officers pay attention to convincing others with military merit, and the competition is even simpler. It is clear at a glance that the stronger force wins.

But there is a saying that Wen Wu is the first and Wu Wu is the second. It is very interesting to say that Wen Wu is the first.

If the children of the Su family continue to study literature, it is not impossible, but it will be much more difficult.

Those who oppose the prince, such as the family of Concubine Li, and the family of successors, will definitely target the children of the Su family and prevent them from getting ahead as quickly as possible.

But it's easy to abandon literature and join the military. If the civil officials can't get in, the Su family will naturally have a fairer and even greater advantage than others.

Everyone in the martial arts arena was thinking about life. On the other side, Su Xinyi went back to her yard to change and wash, and then went directly to the study to read.

At this time, Mammy She came, brought a booklet, and began to give the girl private lessons.

Su Xinyi hurriedly put down her books, and followed Madam She to learn the rules and etiquette in the palace. In a flash, the whole morning passed.

Before she had eaten at noon, she received invitations from Zhu Chanyi and Guo Yunrong.

Su Xinyi wrote a reply, and felt that it was inelegant for her brothers to cry and howl like ghosts and wolves in the martial arts arena, so she asked someone to meet at Yuande Theater and listen to a play by the way.

Early the next morning, Su Xinyi went to the Martial Arts Field as usual. This time, she didn't run with her brothers with a spear, but went to the Martial Arts Field by herself, as if she was doing what she had to do before.

After she ran around slowly, Su Qi found that there was something tied to Su Xinyi's calf, so he asked her, "What is it that you tied?"

Su Xinyi replied without looking back, "Sand."

Su Qi: ...

Their lives are still running laps and struggling, and Xiao Liu has started running with sand on his legs. Is this something people do?
No wonder he didn't come to urge them this morning, this is clearly Chi Guoguo laughing at them!

Su Xinyi did it on purpose. She found that her brothers seemed to be a little resistant to martial arts, and it would be boring to force them to practice, so she thought of a different method.

After running, Su Xinyi took the spear and went to a clean place to practice marksmanship.

Her marksmanship was so vigorous that Su Qi and the others forgot to run, they stood aside and watched her spear point approaching to the point where only a phantom remained, and the ground trembled slightly when the force of her spear was broken.

Su Xinyi got up and put away the gun, greeted his brothers with a smile on his face, stretched out his hand, and inserted the spear into the weapon rack accurately.

"Brothers, my little sister is done practicing, let's go first. By the way, I'm going to the Yuande Theater to listen to an opera today. Is there anything you want that I can bring back for you?" Su Xinyi asked with a smile.

Murder is heartbreaking, but that's it.

They want to immerse themselves in this martial arts arena and practice hard, and then see if Xiao Liu can go to the opera with ease!
Seeing that they didn't want her to bring anything, Su Xinyi waved her hands and left happily.

As soon as Su Xinyi left, Su Qi suddenly said: "Sixth Younger Sister's marksmanship is a bit like that of Uncle Fourth, but Uncle Fourth used a knife back then."

Su Yi is not on duty today, and it was Second Master Su who came to keep an eye on people. He just walked in at this time, when he heard this sentence, he asked, "Your fourth uncle is very powerful. You can use all kinds of weapons, but the most powerful The most important thing is saber and spear skills. What are you still doing stupidly, get up and squat up, today is a longer time for a cup of tea than yesterday, no one is allowed to be lazy."

Su Chu looked hopeless, looked at Su Ju next to him, and then at Su Bei, his legs were still shaking like a sieve.

Prolonging the time for a cup of tea can really kill you!
After Su Xinyi went back, she changed her clothes and was about to go out. When she met the Fourth Madam, she hurriedly stopped and said hello, "Mother."

Seeing that her daughter was about to go out, the fourth lady gathered herself together and remembered that she had an appointment with someone to listen to a play at Yuande Theater Building today, so she said with a smile: "I forgot about your going out for a while, it's no big deal, it's just the embroidery village. I want to come over and make clothes for you, don't go out tomorrow."

Su Xinyi agreed immediately, "Do all the sisters in the family do it?"

The fourth lady nodded, "The Marquis of Changnan came to ask for a date, and the wedding date should be fixed soon. The son of the Marquis of Changnan delayed the marriage because of his filial piety. Now that he has filial piety, the other side naturally wants to quickly marry a new wife into the door." "He said and smiled again, "Yin Qianhu is much older than Jingmo, and the marriage should not be too late, so the clothes for all seasons must be made in advance. You are not in a hurry, only summer clothes."

Su Xinyi nodded, she didn't expect that Changnan Hou Mansion was quite anxious.

The fourth lady patted her daughter's hand, "Go, don't come back too late."

Su Xinyi agreed with a smile, and then went out and took the car away.

The carriage came all the way to Yuande Theater, and Su Xinyi remembered the last time he met the prince here, and it passed by in a flash.

Stepping into the theater building, she asked for a box on the top floor, and she went in to wait for someone.

Yuande Theater also has morning tea, and those who come to drink morning tea are all for listening to the book, Su Xinyi came earlier, and the storyteller was speaking impassionedly, and the people who listened to the book applauded.

It was really lively.

Su Xinyi ordered two snacks, a pot of clear tea, and sipped the tea while listening to the book, peeling melon seeds in his hand. It would be nice if he came in men's clothes, and he would be comfortable if he had his legs crossed.

Before they had had a few sips of tea, the two came together. Seeing Su Xinyi's cozy appearance, they couldn't help laughing at her.

Su Xinyi didn't think so either. He asked the two to sit down, called Xiao Er to serve tea again, ordered a table of Yuande Theater's signature dishes, and sent Xiao Er away. Then he looked at the two and said with a smile: "Suddenly Do you want to see me, is there something?"

"I haven't congratulated you on being crowned princess yet."

Su Xinyi and Zhu Chanyi spoke together, and Guo Yunrong on the other side was happy, "Can't I have tea with you if I have nothing to do?"

"Of course not." Su Xinyi said immediately, "I feel bored staying at home all day, and now I don't go out casually like before. It's really raining from heaven that you guys asked me out."

Zhu Chanyi smiled and said: "I haven't seen you for a few days, but your mouth is getting better and better."

Su Xinyi smiled cheerfully, "We shouldn't practice first."

All three of them laughed immediately.

Zhu Chanyi looked at Su Xinyi, "Seeing that you look good, we are relieved. Who would have thought that you would be the last person to run for the election, but you would be the one chosen in the end. We asked you out because we were afraid that you would be depressed. Originally, Xianhua Ye Qiu and Ye Qiu are also coming, but if they have something to do at home, please ask me to give you a voice."

Su Xinyi waved his hand, "We don't need to be so polite, let's have something to eat first, the snacks in the theater are good, I liked it last time I came here."

"When will this play start?" Guo Yunrong asked.

Su Xinyi said: "It's about [-]:[-] p.m., it's almost time, so let's talk."

Zhu Chanyi took a sip of tea, looked at Su Xinyi and asked, "Do you know about the accident in Daling Temple?"

Su Xinyi was taken aback, "What happened?"

"It's about Fushi. It is said that the monks in the temple joined forces with people outside the temple to deliberately promote the efficacy of Fushi to get money. Daling Temple has been closed for a few days." Zhu Chanyi said.

Su Xinyi didn't expect the progress to be so fast. Thinking carefully about Zhu Chanyi's words, this was a situation where the monks of Daling Temple colluded with outsiders. She frowned, "How many monks from Daling Temple are involved?"

"I don't know yet, I'm afraid we'll find out when the case comes to light. The Fifth Army Battalion transferred some people to guard the Daling Temple, just because the Daling Temple is famous, and they didn't tell the truth. They only said that it was the Daling Temple." The temple was closed for repairs." Guo Yunrong said, "However, I heard that more than a dozen monks from Daling Temple were arrested, it seems that the matter is not small."

"There are so many people talking about holding up the spirit, and some people really believe it. I heard that there is a kind of ecstasy incense mixed into the sand table. When holding the shaman, when the sand table moves, the ecstasy incense will be inhaled into the nose and create illusions."

"Really? If so, it would be too harmful."

Su Xinyi remembered that something was wrong with the banquet for Jones that day, and it really didn't seem like something a sane person could do.

"How did the investigation go?" She asked, "Have you figured out who is behind the scenes?"

"I don't know. People from the Fifth Army Battalion have been transferred, so it should be soon." Guo Yunrong sighed, "I'm a little scared when I think about it now. I was quite interested in this technique when I heard about it a few years ago. I couldn’t go for one game.”

"You are lucky." Zhu Chanyi said, "I heard that many ladies in the capital have tried it in private. It is said that this Fushi buys a set of these things and it costs hundreds of taels of silver. Counting the monks in Daling Temple will make money."

"This is black-hearted money! You are still a monk." Guo Yunrong said angrily.

Su Xinyi thought of Xu Yurong, and wondered if Xu Yurong had anything to do with it, or whether it was the knowledge.

At this time, the theater finally started to sing, and the babbling and babbling tones came up. Su Xinyi listened to the play while listening to Zhu Chanyi and said: "When the truth comes out, they will have to spit out the money, and they can't run away."

"Don't talk about that, Xin Yi told you something fun." Guo Yunrong said with a smile.

Su Xinyi looked up at her, "What's so fun?"

"Of course, after you were named the crown princess, those who were disappointed and failed said a lot about you behind their backs. Do you want to hear it?"

Su Xinyi wasn't interested at all, "It's not brave enough to be defeated."

Zhu Chanyi's brows and eyes were about to fly, "You don't want to hear it, but I just want to tell you that the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion is the bustling place. As soon as you canonized the imperial edict, Pei Nianwei went to the Zhuangzi, saying that she was sick, but the sickness was terrible. What a coincidence."

"What's wrong with recuperating? It's embarrassing to hide." Guo Yunrong sneered, "Then the Pei family never forgets that there will be another queen in the family, and they have been trying to send Pei Nianwei to the East Palace all these years. Isn't it embarrassing?"

"The Shu family and the Li family have closed their doors to thank guests for the past few days, and they dare not show their faces, which is very interesting." Zhu Chanyi looked at Su Xinyi and said, "However, because of the draft, Li Wenxuan and Li Qingyi heard that they were having trouble. Had a game."

Su Xinyi was taken aback, "Why?"

"You forgot, Li Ji was investigated at the beginning by His Highness the Crown Prince. Li Wenxuan is Li Ji's daughter, so she must have resented His Highness the Crown Prince. Li Qingyi went to participate in the selection of the Crown Princess, but she was not selected. Li Wenxuan has to do well. Make a mockery."

Su Xinyi: ...

It was quite lively.

"I heard that King Xiang and King Jing are going back to Beijing, is it true or not?" Guo Yunrong looked at Zhu Chanyi and asked.

"I haven't heard of it, but it's been a year since the two princes went to Beijing on business, right? It's changed back." Zhu Chanyi said.

Su Xinyi is not familiar with King Xiang and King Jing, and they didn't have much contact with each other in her previous life, but because of Concubine Li Gui, she has a faint rejection of King Xiang.

A person like Li Guifei judges the situation and is able to bend and stretch. In her previous life, she had no contact with Li Guifei. She only knew that Li Guifei was very favored, but in this life, she saw a side that she didn't see in her previous life.

Concubine Li Gui can let Li Qingyi show favor to her, it can be seen that this person's favor is not a fluke, and her son is probably not easy.

It's a pity that she rarely went out in her previous life, because King Xiang and King Jing had nothing to do with her life, and she didn't know anything about them. After all, it was King Rong who had the most trouble with the prince.

With King Rong in front, King Jing and King Xiang seemed to be invisible.

"What's the difference?" Su Xinyi asked.

It was only then that Guo Yunrong thought that when the two princes left Beijing, Xin Yi had not yet returned to the Duke of Qi's mansion, so she explained to her: "The emperor sent the two princes to inspect the river. It is said that they have other errands besides inspecting the river. This I don't know."

Su Xinyi frowned slightly. It is a big deal to inspect the river. He did not expect His Majesty to entrust King Xiang and King Jing with such a heavy responsibility. A little curious."

"Prince Xiang is gentle and polite. He has always been easy-going in his dealings with others. He has a good reputation in the court. King Jing is different. He is straightforward and reckless. He often stabs people, similar to King Rong, but King Rong is not lucky enough to please His Majesty. "

Su Xinyi understood, she was right, the son raised by Concubine Li Gui really resembles her,
The three of them ate and chatted, and when they heard applause, they would also clap along. After eating, they didn't know what kind of play it was singing. Su Xinyi couldn't laugh or cry.

Before saying goodbye, Guo Yunrong said: "Xin Yi, there will be a dragon boat race for the Dragon Boat Festival in a few days, do you know this?"

Su Xinyi knew, but she had never seen it in her previous life, "I know, what's wrong?"

"How about we form a women's dragon boat team?"

Guo Yunrong immediately said: "Don't be too fancy, can you find a few strong people to row with you? By then, everyone will reach the end, maybe we are still at the beginning."

Zhu Chanyi clicked his tongue, "It's a pity, I just don't believe it, why can't there be women's dragon boat races."

Hearing this, Su Xinyi looked at Zhu Chanyi and asked, "Aren't your children participating in the competition? If so, you can participate in the name of Zheng Guogong's mansion."

Zhu Chanyi's eyes lit up, "That's a good idea. I'll ask my family when I get back. What about you?"

Su Xinyi said: "I don't know if my family will participate in the previous years, I will go back and ask, if I participate, I will go too."

Guo Yunrong was also a little envious when he heard it, and asked hesitantly: "Can women be allowed to participate in the dragon boat race?"

"You're stupid, what did Xin Yi say? With the family as a boat, it's up to the family to decide who can get on the boat." Zhu Chanyi was eager to try, feeling that there was a lot to do.

Guo Yunrong was also a little moved, "Then I'll ask when I go back, it sounds like fun."

After the three agreed, they went back home separately. Su Xinyi deliberately turned a corner to see Zeng Liang, and brought him the wine bought by Xinghualou on the way, and the drunken duck from Yiyuanju.

Zeng Liang was quite happy to see Su Xinyi, "Congratulations, Miss Six, you can't shout like that after you get married."

Su Xinyi smiled, "It doesn't matter what you call it, how is your health recently?"

"I can eat and sleep well." Zeng Liang said with a smile.

Su Xinyi chatted with him for a few words before leaving. Zeng Liang watched the carriage leave, holding apricot blossom wine in one hand and drunken duck in the other, and walked slowly towards his yard, still humming famous minor.

Su Xinyi bought a lot of Drunken Fragrant Duck and Apricot Blossom Wine, and asked the girl to go to each courtyard to send a copy, and took a copy to her sister-in-law.

Zeng stood up to greet her, and Su Xinyi hurried over to help her, "Sister-in-law, please sit down."

Zeng has a big belly and it's hard to move, so it's hard work to watch.

Mrs. Zeng didn't try to be brave either, she sat down with her back supported, and asked with a smile: "Sixth sister came back from outside?"

Su Xinyi laughed, and put the things he brought on the table, "Yes, sister-in-law, I brought you a bottle of apricot blossom wine and a drunken duck on the way back. I'll give the wine to brother."

Mrs. Zeng was very happy, "Your elder brother must be happy when he finds out."

"When did big brother come back recently?" Su Xinyi asked.

When Zeng heard this, she smiled and said, "Is there something you need to do with your elder brother? Usually it's almost You hour, and it's almost here, and I should be back in a moment."

Su Xinyi smiled and nodded, "Then I'll wait for Big Brother for a while, I have something to ask Big Brother."

"Want to ask me something?"

Su Xinyi turned around and saw Su Yi enter the door, he couldn't help but smiled and said: "Brother, it's a coincidence that you came back, and you have nothing else to do, I just want to ask if our house participated in dragon boat races in previous years?"

Su Yi immediately asked vigilantly, "What do you want to do?"

Su Xinyi: ...

Zeng looked at the two brothers and sisters with a sleepy smile, looked at Xin Yi and said, "Sixth sister, our family didn't participate in previous years."

Su Xinyi only knew that after she returned to the capital, Duke Qi's mansion had never participated in the dragon boat race, but she didn't know if she participated in it before she came back.

After hearing what my sister-in-law said, I looked at my elder brother, "Brother, do you consider taking the exam this year?"

Su Yi said with a straight face, "What are you doing, do you want to go?"

Su Xinyi immediately clasped his fists together, "My elder brother is really insightful, he knows my heart, elder brother, I have never participated in such a fun thing before, I want to play, okay?"

Su Yi tried hard to keep a straight face, "Speak well."

Sixth Sister suddenly acted like a baby, and he couldn't bear it.

Moreover, the people who heard this were very sad, and yes, the sixth younger sister grew up in the countryside, where had she seen these things, and she was curious and wanted to play.

"Brother, our brothers and sisters in Duke Qi's family are united, and we will surely break through the siege and win the first place in the dragon boat race!" Su Xinyi said.

Su Yi: ...

"Dragon boat races, you need to know that the participating teams are all experienced, and each team has a tacit understanding after a long period of training. It is definitely not possible for our family to cram their feet temporarily." Su Yi explained to his sister.

Su Xinyi nodded, "Brother, you brothers don't have a tacit understanding, let you directly veto it."

Su Yi: ...

Mrs. Zeng pursed her lips and smiled, and hurriedly helped her husband out, "Sixth sister, the only young master in our family is your eldest brother who practices martial arts, and the other younger brothers go to the academy to study after they grow up. There are not many opportunities to meet each other all year round. It’s also impossible.”

Su Xinyi rolled his eyes, "It doesn't matter, we are all at home now, what a great opportunity this is. Big brother, don't you think so? Think about it, the brothers will take the martial arts exam in the future, so now is a chance to exercise .”

"Nonsense, our children still use martial arts exams?" Su Yi laughed angrily.

Su Xinyi immediately said: "Don't take the exam, wouldn't it be better for people to know our strength, and not let people think that our family is relying on concealment to become an official, we must speak by strength!"

Su Yi had a headache, no matter what she said, she was justified, so it was rare for her to say ill-intentioned, "You want to participate in the competition, does His Royal Highness agree? You are the future princess."

　The [-]-word update is complete, my little cuties.
