Chapter 68

Sima Yu brought a man into the East Palace, which is not of the same nature as Ah Li.But in two or three days, he found a time when he was free, and brought Rong Ke to see Ari.

It's been three weeks, and it's the first time for him to bring Bai Ding into the East Palace.It was the first time to bring a man to see Ahri.

Ah Li really didn't expect that he had a friend she didn't know.

He also had some doubts when he heard the report, but he still ordered people to prepare melon and fruit refreshments, and prepared a seat in the West Hall.

After a while, Sima Yu sent someone again, and he said hesitantly, "Your Highness said that his friend is ugly and a little shy to meet people."

Ari Heixian: ...Didn't he let her see it?
The servant hurriedly explained, "Your Highness means, please ask your mother to set up a tent, don't, don't scare your mother."

Ari: ...how ugly is this man?

In fact, in this era, there are not only beautiful men, but also ugly men.This is another era of aesthetics, when Pan Lang goes out and throws a car full of fruit, Zuo Si imitates the frown, and the crowd spits on it.But this is also an era of flamboyant personalities, real celebrities are romantic, and there are some people who are ugly but outstanding, but they are calm, and they convince everyone with their demeanor. Ashamed of myself.

The key is connotation, connotation!
Therefore, Ari can't help feeling subtle sympathy and regret for this ugly man with low self-esteem.There is also infinite curiosity and speculation that he can be the prince's guest.

So he ordered someone to set up an account, and sent the idlers out to pour tea himself.

Not long after, the two arrived.

A layer of veil separated him, so he couldn't see his face clearly, but just looking at his temperament and figure, that man was no worse than Sima Yu. He was very gentle and calm in listening to his conversation and looking at his demeanor, a very gentlemanly demeanor.

Standing with Sima Yu, it makes people feel that they are all beautiful boys like flowers.

Ari was lost in thought.

After exchanging greetings, each sat down.Only then did Ari find out that he had come here specially to check her pulse because he had heard that she was weak.

So he didn't hide and tucked it in. He half pushed his sleeve, covered it with a thin handkerchief, and passed it from under the curtain.

The man put his fingers up.Seen from under the curtain, the fingers were as white as ivory, and the fingers were long and slender, born to pluck the strings.Ari was puzzled—with such hands, how ugly can a person be?

Then I heard the man seemingly unintentionally tap the table with his index and middle fingers.Ari was taken aback.

It was only when he repeated it that Ahri became convinced—it was Morse code, it was actually Morse code.

She looked carefully and translated in her heart, "I am Apo."

Ah Li pounced on the ground.

Sima Yu felt very regretful.

He felt that he had led the wolf into the house.

Rong Ke, this man is very immoral, you see, the first time he met them, he dared to make an appointment in the flower house, drank the flower wine very calmly, without any guilt.

Moreover, he once had the deeds of refusing an invitation from a senior member of the court in order to treat a prostitute.I thought he was a person from outside, and the reason he gave was probably that all living beings are equal, but the result turned out to be "women first, it's only right and proper".Therefore, he has a great reputation among women, and he can be called a friend of women.Among the many women, he was particularly concerned about Sima Yu's wife, Ah Li.Although not blatantly, but also inquired about Ahri's current situation in disguise.

Ask him why, and he said: "Your Highness has a fairy fate, and I want to come to the people next to His Highness..."

Sima Yu didn't drop the cup at that time - you are the only one who has a fairy fate, and your whole family has a fairy fate!After thinking about it, I feel even more disturbed, isn't Rong Ke just a person who seeks immortals and asks!

What's even worse is that he still looks so attractive to women.It's not that Sima Yu doesn't have the self-confidence to beat him, it's because his criminal record is too cruel, what he has done is torn apart, the mandarin ducks are angry with each other, and many virtuous wives start to dislike their husbands.It is said that even Huan Daolian, who was the most tight-lipped, let him see his illness once, and complained to Xie Lian that "Xie Lang doesn't understand the heart of a concubine".

However, the relationship between him and Ari is particularly awkward. This will arouse Ari's old and new hatred for him, or arouse her interest in cultivating immortality and ascending...

Sima Yu's tone was a bit wrong, "See a doctor as soon as you see a doctor, what kind of table do you knock on!"

Just your hands? !

Rong Ke couldn't help laughing, Ah Li's black line—she already understood that the account was not set up because of Rong Ke's ugliness, but because Sima Yu was cautious and afraid of being compared to others.

——He also underestimated Ahri's determination!Is she so easy to change her mind?

"It's my habit to see a doctor. If your highness can't stand it, can you please move for a while?" Rong Ke answered calmly.

Sima Yu: ...

Rong Ke knocked on his table, and Sima Yu was drinking tea restlessly beside him.

Ari looked at him with a smile and waved to him. Sima Yu felt better and moved to sit next to Ari.

"Are you feeling better today?" You asked with concern.

Ari was busy translating the password, and didn't want to distract himself from answering, so he turned sideways and quickly kissed him on the cheek.

Sima Yu was taken aback. He looked at the other person's face, but he didn't pay attention to the movement here, so he blushed and calmed down.

Ali pursed his lips and smiled.

When Rong Ke finished speaking, she also started knocking on the table.

"I'm fine, right?"

"do not know."

... It is conceivable that a "miracle doctor" who has become a monk halfway through does not have any equipment, what can he diagnose?

"Where's the gift bag?" Ari asked again.

Apo said that when he appeared again, he would give her a big gift package to help her turn the odds into victory.

"For your husband."

Ali: ...

"Give me some hints!"

The two secretly passed the news under Sima Yu's nose.Sima Yu couldn't understand, and didn't know they were talking, but he just didn't mind.Then he put his arm around Ahri's back and held Ahri's hand.

Ari smiled and kissed him again, and clenched his fingers tightly.

Apo did bring a lot of news this time.Although most of them are passed down in the ladies' boudoirs, they are still very reliable.

So one day, suddenly six girls lined up in front of Ari, Ari thought he would not be surprised—the backyard of the East Palace was empty, and someone would always worry about Sima Yu.It was not easy for the elders to reject the person they sought out for him—but the accident still made Ari almost knock over the teacup.

The girl standing in the middle has a different complexion and a clear demeanor. She is none other than Zuo Jiasi.

The queen mother sent a message to see these girls.Ari can only swallow the words full of stomach, and first take them into the palace for a walk.

But he also knows that these people have shown their faces in front of the elders, and it is not so easy for Ari to manipulate the candidates.

Sure enough, the queen mother saw Zuo Jiasi again, and she still said, "This girl looks a lot like you." She held her hand and looked at it carefully for a while, and then gave her the bracelet.Although the other girls also got it, Zuo Jiasi was still the most outstanding.

Take it to the queen again.

The queen was not interested in these girls, so she said a few casual words and set rules for them face to face.It was as if they were not here to be concubines, but to be slaves.

They didn't even reward anything, and after the rules were established, they were left to stand there, talking only to Ari.

"I heard that the situation in the west is not good. Ah Yao's trip is dangerous."

Ari comforted her: "Your Highness will not be sent to the front line. There are so many guards and soldiers, so nothing will go wrong. Don't worry, A Niang."

The Queen smiled and said: "What's the use of worrying? If he is looking for a job in his position, since he is the crown prince, this trip is always inevitable. I'll just chatter with you."

"I'll take good care of him, don't teach him to make mistakes."

The queen pondered for a moment, "With you here, I'm naturally at ease, but—" the conversation changed, "This is what I meant, and your grandfather also mentioned it to me. This trip is also to motivate the officers and soldiers. Looking after a beautiful wife, it’s like traveling in mountains and rivers. After all, others don’t bring their families. You are weak, and it’s worrying to follow you to work.”

Ari: ...I knew it was rare to go out for a trip, and it was going to be ruined again.When the parents were hard-hearted towards their son, they were really unambiguous.

Ah Li bowed his head and said nothing.

"It's not good to tell you young couple to be separated for a long time. If you don't want to, you can think about this matter again."

Ah Li didn't want to embarrass the Queen, so he smiled and said, "I'll go back and discuss with Ah Yao."

After returning to the East Palace, everyone around him put down first, and first announced Zuo Jiasi to speak.

Zuo Jiasi also froze for a while when she first met Ari, and she didn't expect that the princess concubine was actually Ari—there is really no news in this era, not to mention that she has been away from Jianye for some years.

But at this moment, she had already figured it out, and she only had the joy of reunion in her heart.

Therefore, when he entered the room and saw Ahri's dignified appearance, he was a little uneasy, and called "Sister" as usual, but felt that it was inappropriate, so he hurriedly saluted.

Ari held her by the arm and asked, "How have you been these years?"

She always speaks softly like the wind, and when Zuo Jiasi heard her voice, the grievances that had been buried long ago surged up again, and tears were about to roll down immediately.He lowered his head and shook.

Ari sighed, pulled her to sit down, and asked, "Aren't you going to get married? Why did you enter the East Palace again?"

Zuo Jiasi said: "There are people from the same village in the village who recognized me... The rumor spread in the village, his family said that I was unfaithful, so they divorced. I can't stay in Danyang..." She lived those days She was in a daze, and people talked about her spine everywhere, and even her sister-in-law also said that she had dragged down her brother's reputation, and stabbed her with words.Someone showed her the way, implying that she committed suicide to prove her innocence.Zuo Jiasi gritted her teeth and endured - although she was insensitive, she did not despise herself, and she did not think that she should die for such a thing, "Brother Qi was appreciated by the chief secretary of Kuaiji, so he moved his family... and Somebody went to Kuaiji to select beautiful women for the East Palace, and because of some chances, they were chosen."

"Being bullied, why didn't you tell me?"

At that time, Ari actually sent someone to ask about it, but at that time, the girls in the same village would be accused of making irresponsible remarks if they said anything to Zuo Jiasi.She was originally a self-sufficient temperament, and she simply didn't get involved with others.She dismissed the person Ari sent with a few words, which made the person dissatisfied with her arrogance.Zuo Jiasi didn't argue either.

"I have already caused too much trouble for sister."

Ari smiled wryly and shook her head, what Zuo Jiasi is causing her now is the biggest trouble.

Raising his hand to wipe away her tears, he asked again, "What are you going to do in the future?"

But Zuo Jiasi's tears could not be stopped. The ancients said that hibiscus weeping dew, it is true that some people are so fragrant even when they cry.Ah Li held her face, very helpless, "You..."

"I want to be with sister." Zuo Jiasi finally spoke.

Ari said: "But I don't want to keep you in the East Palace." Seeing that Zuo Jiasi was about to guess wildly again, Ari told her the truth, "I have a good relationship with the prince, and I don't want others to come in. I'm afraid that when the time comes I can't stand you."

"Yes, but isn't that..."

Zuo Jia thinks about "jealous women" - her sister-in-law loves to make trouble for no reason, and when she is unreasonable, she will either beat the maid and call others irresponsible, or call the neighbors a vixen.The earliest image of a "jealous woman" in Zuo Jiasi's mind was her, a child who always used the people around her as a warning against herself, and she vowed not to become like a sister-in-law.

In the stories she has heard, Ehuang Nvying is a good story, and many folks are sisters dowry.She likes Ari, and if she and Ari serve her husband together, life must be beautiful.

But she didn't say it.

In her heart, Ali is the best girl she has ever met.If she is also jealous, then "jealousy" itself becomes less ugly.

"But we all came in to serve the prince." She just said.

Ari smiled helplessly, "Those people should rely on their own abilities. I only treat you as my younger sister, and I don't want to hurt our relationship. Do you understand?"

Zuo Jiasi didn't quite understand.She was just a little annoyed that her relationship with Ari could be hurt so easily.She was a little bit angry at the prince, and couldn't help thinking, it would be fine if they didn't have to get married.

But she still said, "Yeah."

She is not so ignorant of the world.

Before she entered the Eastern Palace, someone once said to her, "When you become rich, don't forget me." She knew what kind of future the women in the Eastern Palace would have in the future.She also knows that wealth is obtained through competition, and the East Palace is not a smooth path.

She entered the East Palace because she couldn't help herself, and she didn't covet that wealth.It was only when I met Ari by chance that I got some thoughts.

Ari knew that Zuo Jiasi had a confidant, and she handled this matter very clumsily.

But she always has to be clear about her feelings for Zuo Jiasi.

Because of this incident, Ari was a little depressed.

But she still has to take care of these girls.

When appointing maids for them, Ahri was bored and fumbled through the roster, and when he saw a name called "Guixiang", something flashed through his mind like an electric shock, and he woke up instantly.

She still remembered that the maid she pointed to Zuo Jiasi in the first chapter was this person - indeed, she was rewarded by the Empress Dowager not long ago.Back then when she first came here, she also had an idea with Sima Yu, but after being teased twice, she withdrew early and stopped joining in the fun.She doesn't know how to do anything, she is lazy and lazy, but because she was rewarded by the queen mother, she is raised like this.

And Zuo Jiasi also said that her brother moved because he was appreciated by Kuaiji Chief Shi.Chang Shi is from the palace.

Ah Li still remembers that Yu Xiu, the grand-niece of the Empress Dowager, is Princess Kuaiji.Zuo Jiasi said that some chances brought her into the East Palace, what chance could be better than King Kuaiji's connections to send a daughter of an official to the East Palace?

Although the ones selected this time were not wealthy ladies, Zuo Jiasi's background was too humble.

Still have to check it out.
