Splendid Book

Chapter 48
Shen Changle looked at the person opposite, he was talking to his second brother about riding and shooting.Perhaps when young people get together, it is easy to talk about such topics.The second elder brother couldn't even care about playing chess, and kept talking to him.

Originally Zhang Yang was still standing next to her talking to her, but he was attracted by what Ji Yu mentioned.Shen Changle still stood at the window, although his face was expressionless, but he was still aggrieved in his heart.Except for the sentence just now, I believe that you will pass the exam, but Ji Yuke never said anything else to her.

The fire cloud in the sky is still thick, and it seems to be getting stronger and stronger, dyeing half of the sky with a layer of orange.The people on the street downstairs were still noisy. Although there was a curfew at night, it was only in the middle of the night.Now the capital is bustling with business, and the night market is also very lively, so although it is getting late at this meeting, there are no shortage of hawking voices on both sides.

"What are you looking at?" A clear voice came from behind her.

When Shen Changle turned around, he saw Ji Yu standing behind him, while Zhang Yang, Shen Rufan, and Ji Qishu had their heads together, with their backs to them.As for Ji Qijun, he was sitting on the table, sipping tea carefully.

She turned her head abruptly, as if she didn't want to answer his question.

But as she turned her head, an inaudible laughter rang in her ears.Shen Changle was a little annoyed, obviously he was pretending not to know her well.No, maybe in his heart, the two of them didn't know each other at all.

In the past few years, she didn't have many opportunities to meet Ji Yu, but it didn't prevent her from hearing something about her.

It was said that Qiao Yun was very popular with the Concubine De, and would be called into the palace by Concubine De from time to time, and as Ji Yu, the Concubine De's son, would naturally pay her respects from time to time.So the cousins ​​came and went, but the relationship became deeper.

Of course, the reason why Shen Changle knew this was only because she happened to meet Qiao Yun at a banquet she attended.When a girl saw that the hairpin on her head was very delicate, she shyly said that it was given by the concubine De.Then someone mentioned Ji Yu, although one should not talk about the prince in private, but with Qiao Yun around, everyone wished to know more about the seventh prince.

Although the emperor has many sons, there is only one Ji Yu who is so good-looking and favored.Even though he is only 15 years old, he has already performed outstandingly in every way, and even the older princes dare not underestimate him.

Shen Changle naturally disdains Qiao Yun's tricks, because she knows better than anyone else that Ji Yu's concubine will not be her.No matter how hard she tried, it was all in vain in the end.But there was a small voice in her heart shouting, how do you know that this life will develop like the last one.In the previous life, the Lin family was a glorious lady, but in this life she was imprisoned in a small courtyard with no sunlight. I am afraid that she will never be free again in this life.

Every time she thinks of this, she can't help feeling a little uneasy.To be honest, she wasn't jealous, she just felt that Qiao Yun wasn't good enough for Ji Yu.

"What are you thinking, so preoccupied?" Ji Yu stood by the window, turned to look at her face, and asked lightly.

Shen Changle's thoughts were suddenly interrupted, and she was a little absent-minded, but after a while, she realized that Ji Yu was standing very close to her, so close that he could smell his faint scent.She suddenly chuckled and turned to look at him with mockery in her eyes, "Guess?"

He definitely couldn't guess that she was thinking about him and Qiao Yun, but seeing his calm expression, as if everything was under control, Shen Changle couldn't help but want to tease him.

"I," his voice was like the voice of gold and jade, clear and clear, with a slight hoarseness unique to young people, but this one firm word made Shen Changle suddenly lose his mind.

She snorted, turned her head away, and didn't say whether what he said was right or wrong.Obviously she was the one who wanted to break the mask on his face every time, but every time it was the other way around.

"What are you thinking about me?" Ji Yu's voice sounded again, but this time with a faint, determined smile.

Shen Changle was amused by his question, turned his face away with pride, raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and asked, "Why don't you guess again?"

This time Ji Yu really smiled, he stretched out his hand, Shen Changle was so frightened that he wanted to back away, but that white and slender hand had already landed on her black hair.He smiled lowly, seemingly helpless, but there was a smile on his face, "Little girl, it's still the same as when I was a child."

When Shen Changle heard it, she was immediately unhappy, she was almost a grown girl, she didn't have the chubby appearance before.

But before he could speak, he heard Ji Yulang say: "Changle, there are flying catkins on your head, let me help you remove them."

Shen Changle was stunned, not knowing where he was singing, but as soon as he turned his head, he saw the frowning of her second brother on the opposite side.Ji Yu threw his palm towards the window, as if something in his hand had spilled out.But then Ji Yu shook his head again, and said with a sigh: "I thought Changle, you grew up, but I never thought that you are still like a child. You don't care if your hair is messy, and you just know how to play. You are really a child."

Shen Changle stared at him with wide eyes, but he actually had the nerve to talk about her.I didn't know how cute she was when she was young. Don't think that she doesn't remember things when she is young, but she remembers everything. Whoever looks at her will not say that the third girl of the Shen family is really Yuxue, she looks like a boy in the sky. .

At this moment, Shen Rufan laughed loudly, and said, "Seventh prince, you still remember the appearance of the third younger sister when she was young, she was sloppy, how could she look like a girl.

As soon as these words came out, not to mention Shen Changle was stunned, but everyone else looked at each other in blank dismay.Shen Changle's eyes were even redder with anger, how could a brother say that about his own sister.Sloppy, you're the sloppy, your whole family...

Thinking of Shen Ruwen's whole family, including herself, Shen Changle couldn't think of the cruel words in his heart.

"We have seen this solitary book before, thank you, the Seventh Prince," Shen Ruan picked up the book in his hand, with a gentle smile on his face, but such a gentle smile was different from what he had seen before. Compared with Ji Yushi's expression, he was really a little alienated.

Ji Yu's face remained unchanged, and he smiled slightly: "It's okay, you can keep it carefully, anyway, I have read this book a long time ago."

Shen Ruan wanted to speak, but was pulled away by Zhang Yang next to him, obviously he really wanted to take a closer look at this solitary copy left by the previous dynasty.Seeing the eagerness on Zhang Yang's face, Shen Ruan sighed and felt helpless in her heart, thinking that this idiot really has no eyesight.

But Zhang Yang kept tugging at his sleeves, and finally Shen Rufan could only nod and said, "Thank you, Seventh Prince."

"It's superfluous to say thank you between you and me," Ji Yu said with a gentle expression, but the smile in his eyes slowly receded like a tide.

Seeing that Shen Changle was still standing by the window, Shen Rufan immediately said: "Changle, I see you've been standing there for some time, you'd better come and sit down, so as not to be blown by the wind."

Shen Changle's eyes turned red from his anger, but in the end he was still here pretending like nothing happened.So she just stared straight at Shen Rufan, and the people on the opposite side also noticed Shen Changle's red eye sockets, and when they thought of what Shen Rufan said just now, they couldn't open their mouths.Everyone knows that Shen Changle is not only the treasure of Duke Wei's mansion, but also more favored than the two serious young masters in Jining Hou's mansion.Unless they are out of their minds, they will offend this precious cousin.

So Shen Ruyan, who hadn't realized his mistake yet, didn't know that, the cousins ​​next to him looked at him with sympathetic expressions.

"That's not necessary, I'd better stand far away from the second brother, lest my sloppy sister embarrass you," Shen Changle looked at Shen Rufan, if Ji Yu was not here at this time, she would Wish I could go up and pinch him.

Only now did Shen Ruyan realize what was wrong with her.It's just that he has said everything, and there are so many people present, even if he wants to beg for mercy, he has to wait until the people are behind.

But Shen Changle stood there motionless, and he couldn't command Ji Yu.He felt that the two of them standing together were really an eyesore, and Shen Ruyan glanced at it again, it was really an eyesore for their perfect match.

Obviously one is just a little girl, and the other is just a boy of the same age as him, but standing together, there is a kind of inseparable match.Just now when he got up and looked back, he saw Ji Yu's palm touching Chang Le's head, and the gentle smile on his face made Shen Ruan unhappy.Why did he touch my sister's hair, why did he smile at my sister like that.

Even if he is a good brother, he can't have ill intentions towards my sister.

The more Shen Rufan thought about it, the more she felt that her reasons were justified, and a feeling rose from the bottom of her heart that I must protect my sister's pride and sense of responsibility.

So he called again in a low voice: "Chang Le, come here."

When Shen Changle heard him calling himself, it was like calling a horse, no difference.The anger in her heart came up again, so she turned her head away, pretending that she didn't hear Shen Rufan's words.So the atmosphere in this room can be described as embarrassing, the brother and sister were angry, and it was hard for them to say anything.

Fortunately, Ji Qijun knew that he was the oldest here, so he should take care of this matter, and just as he was about to speak, the door of the wing was pushed open.

Shen Ruhui and Zhang Xun came.

"Big brother," as soon as Shen Changle saw Shen Ruhui, a burst of grievance rushed into his heart. Originally, the sockets of his eyes were just a little red, but now there were glistening tears in the sockets.

She rushed over to hold Shen Ruhui's arm, with an expression of grievance on her face.

Shen Ruhui frowned, and immediately asked in a low voice, "What's the matter?"

"Second elder brother bullied me," Shen Changle complained bluntly when he saw the person who made decisions for her came, but ignored him no longer.

Shen Ruhui turned to look at Shen Ruwen, he immediately waved his hands and said, "How dare I bully her, I..."

"He said I was sloppy," Shen Changle was really wronged, she looked down at herself, she was wearing a cherry red dress with ten patterns of brocade makeup and a creamy white pleated skirt embroidered with cherry blossoms, not to mention gorgeous, That's pretty and charming, why is she so sloppy.

"I'm talking about when I was a child, when I was a child," Shen Ruan immediately excused himself.

Shen Changle became even more angry, and she said angrily: "You lie, don't think that I was young and didn't remember things. It's obviously the second brother, you are sloppy, you go up trees or down rivers every day, no one Serious appearance. Others praised me for being Yuxue and cute when I was a child."

Probably because of Shen Ruhui's side, Shen Changle's delicate temperament came up, as if everything I said was right.

Ji Qishu on the side couldn't help laughing, seeing everyone looking at him, he immediately said: "I can prove this for my cousin, when my cousin first came to the capital, I thought she was a little fairy who fell from the sky. "

Zhang Yang on the side glared at him secretly, hating himself for not being the first, but he also immediately said: "I can also prove that my cousin was so cute when she was young, she was beautiful and clean, not sloppy at all."

Shen Changle glared at Zhang Yang again when he heard the word sloppy, he couldn't help mentioning these two words.

"Rufan, how can you say Changle like that," Shen Ruhui glanced at him indifferently, Shen Rufan was most afraid that he was his own eldest brother.

So he immediately smiled flatteringly and said, "Brother, I didn't mean it either, I just said it along the way."

"That is to say, in your second elder brother's heart, I am like this?" Shen Changle looked at him, but his heart became even more angry. Second elder brother talked about it, but that's what he meant.

Shen Rufan had no choice but to reflect on his own mistakes deeply under the coercion of his elder brother. He really shouldn't have said such wrong things.Or he finally begged for mercy, and Shen Changle reluctantly forgave him.

After they finished speaking, Ji Yu greeted Shen Ruhui.Naturally, he did not dare to underestimate this powerful elder brother of the Shen family.

Shen Ruhui just didn't expect that Ji Yu would appear, so he naturally repeated the excuse that Ji Qijun said earlier.Just looking at Shen Ruhui's faint smile, Ji Yu knew in his heart that this Young Master Shen might not believe a single word.

Because this time it was to cheer up Shen Changle, so she took the lead in ordering food.However, she still chose dishes that everyone liked, except for Shen Rufan.

In the end, Zhang Yang and Ji Qishu were arguing again to try the pear flower white of Xianlelou. Although Zhang Xun tried to suppress it, the two younger ones still made a big fuss.In the end it was Ji Yu who came out to make peace, and only let Xiao Er serve a jug of wine. There are so many of them, and if there is a jug of wine, each person will only get two glasses.

Seeing that even Shen Ruhui didn't stop him, Zhang Xun could only nod his head.

So he asked Xiaoer to serve a jug of wine, but after coming up, the youngest Ji Qishu poured wine for everyone, and Shen Changle alone had no share.

She pouted involuntarily and said dissatisfiedly, "Why don't I have one? I want to try it too."

"No."

"No."

"No."

"No."

Shen Changle looked at all the people on the table, and there was such a tacit understanding that they rejected her request with one voice.Probably they didn't think of it themselves, so after saying this, everyone laughed.

Even Ji Yu couldn't help shaking his head.

Perhaps it was this little episode that made the atmosphere on the table easier.Even after Ji Qishu ordered two more pots of Lihuabai, no one stopped him.It's just that the alcohol has a long aftertaste, Shen Ru knows the three of them are young, and because they are young, they haven't tasted alcohol much, so in the end the three of them were so drunk that they couldn't even walk.

So in the end, the three elder brothers carried one by one, carrying the three younger ones down from the third floor.Shen Changle and Ji Yu followed at the end, but when she went downstairs, Ji Yu followed her, and the sound of the two of them stepping on the wooden stairs made a rattling sound, because the second and third floors were all boxes, So there was no noisy sound, but it was very quiet.

When she reached the second floor, Shen Changle seemed to hear something outside. She was afraid it was the second brother and the others, so she hurried down.

But he walked too fast, he didn't see clearly the stairs below, and fell forward.She screamed in panic, her arms were scrambling in mid-air, trying to grab something that could balance her.But she didn't catch anything, so when she fell, she could only close her eyes and groan in her heart.

It's too bad, I'm going to lose face in front of Ji Yu.

But as she expected, the situation where she fell on her back didn't happen.A slender and powerful arm wrapped around her waist and brought her into his arms. The tip of her nose hit his chest, and the embroidered bump touched the tip of her nose.

But compared to the pain at the tip of his nose, it was the arm around his waist that was holding her too tightly, as if he wanted to strangle her whole body into his arms.

Shen Changle was still in shock, when he heard his playful voice next to his ear: "Can you fall down while walking?"

She blushed immediately, and hurriedly pushed him away, but the strength in his arm hadn't been absorbed, how could she push him away.The stairs were not narrow, but at this moment she was trapped in this place, so close that she could even hear each other's breathing.

"If I didn't, Changle, you would have fallen," Ji Yu's mouth curled up, and his voice seemed to be a sigh.

She laughed dryly twice, and said quickly: "Thank you, little brother."

It seems that this familiar title puts Ji Yu in a good mood.So he asked in an old way: "Then how can you thank me?"

Shen Changle: "..." Shouldn't it be doing good deeds without leaving a name?

But Ji Yu took it for granted, and Shen Changle seemed to have heard someone coming upstairs again, if she was seen, her reputation would be ruined.So she begged for mercy immediately: "Little brother, let me go first, I will do whatever you want me to do."

But when she finished speaking, even she was stunned. She could say this kind of thing, really stupid.

But it was too late to repent at this time, because Ji Yu had already flicked her forehead lightly with the other hand, and said with a smile: "Stamp, then we can just make a deal like this."

After finishing speaking, Ji Yu really let her go.

Shen Changle touched his forehead, when he thought of what she said nonsense, he only regretted in his heart, wishing he could just fall on his back.Anyway, it's just embarrassment, now that she has agreed to such a sentence, if Ji Yu really asks her to do something excessive, she will regret it.

Shen Changle was still regretting it until he got into the carriage.

It's just that it's useless to regret it.

As a result, when they went back, they were caught by their father.Shen Lingcheng took a look at the eldest son who had always been the calmest, not only took his daughter out to play, but also made Shen Ruan drunk, he was very angry.So this time, even the eldest brother was punished.

It is said that this is the first time that the eldest brother has led the family law since he grew up.

Later, when Shen Ruan told her about it, he was very proud, and of course he became intimate with his elder brother.After all, everyone is now a person who has received family law.

And three days later, the women's school released the rankings.But this early in the morning, a lot of people gathered at the gate of the girls' school, and even the surrounding restaurants were overcrowded.Because she had just finished the exam, neither she nor Shen Yue needed to attend classes with her husband.Shen Changle didn't think of going there in person, but heard that Aunt Han had heard that Aunt Han took Shen Yue out early in the morning.

Although Auntie can't go out easily, Shen Lingchang has always loved Auntie Han, so he gave her favor.

So when Shen Changle finished washing and was about to water the flowers outside on the porch, she saw Lu Wu running in with her skirt in hand, seeing her standing on the porch, she was so excited.

Not only was she excited, but she couldn't even speak because she was running so fast.This made Chunliu next to her anxious to death, and desperately asked: "How, how, did our girl pass the exam? Did you pass the exam?"

Luwu took a deep breath, and then said: "I passed the exam, I passed the exam, the girl passed the exam."

Her voice could be heard almost in the whole yard, so no matter whether it was the cleaning maids or the maids in the house, they all came out one after another.Shen Changle only felt a little ashamed, but who knew that Luwu continued, "Our girl is still No.1."

Shen Changle stared straight, No.1?
Make no mistake.
