At first, I thought that Li Yingyu was a very lively and cheerful person. After all, standing beside Dali Siqing, she smiled so brightly that the prince snorted "two idiots" in disdain. We brothers grew up in the palace and saw many beauties, so Li Yingyu's appearance is naturally not outstanding, and the crown prince said that she laughed "idiot", it may not be unreasonable. But we soon discovered that we were all wrong, and wrong a little too much.
As soon as Dali Siqing stepped out of the Imperial College, Li Yingyu's shoulders slumped, the corners of her mouth were slightly pursed, and there was no trace of a smile. She looked at Dali Siqing's back and sighed softly, turned around slowly, ignored Taifu Zhou's face, walked past him, found a seat in the corner, sat down, leaned forward, and rested her chin on the table up, staring blankly ahead.
Zhou Taifu is not as gentle as ordinary scholars. On the contrary, he is very hot. Even his father has been beaten by him. I endured it, but in the end there was no attack, and I forced myself to turn my attention back to the book.
To be honest, he spoke very boringly. Everyone probably thought so, but only one person expressed it boldly. In less than half a cup of tea, there was a shallow snoring sound beside me. Turning her head to look, Li Yingyu's hands drooped naturally, her left cheek was pressed against the table, her pink lips were slightly parted, and the corners of her mouth and the table were moistened with saliva, as if she didn't sleep well, she frowned and pouted.
Everyone turned to look at her, but she was unconscious in her sleep, and she was still dreaming. Zhou Taifu was so angry that the veins in his temples were throbbing, he strode over with a ruler in his hand, stopped in front of me, turned his back to me and grabbed Li Yingyu's collar, dangled it violently, and roared furiously: " Li Yingyu, you are too disrespectful!"
Li Yingyu opened her eyes in a daze, and seeing Taifu Zhou's old face, she seemed to be taken aback for a moment, then frowned, and muttered indistinctly, which undoubtedly added fuel to the fire.
Zhou Taifu trembled with anger, and roared, "Stretch out your hand!"
Li Yingyu stretched out her left hand subconsciously, paused, then retracted it, stretched out her right hand, and slightly raised the corner of her mouth, as if thinking of something interesting.
Enraged by her nonchalant attitude, Zhou Taifu grabbed the ruler and slapped her palm hard a dozen times, making us onlookers feel pain in the heart. She didn't change her face, and the smile deepened at the corner of her mouth.
Taifu Zhou was tired from beating her, so he threw her out and made her stand at the door thinking about her mistakes.
Li Yingyu shrugged, and slipped out faster than when she came here. When she found the corner, she squatted down—this posture was not very elegant, but she did it very naturally. With a flick, he looked at the sky contentedly.
This was Li Yingyu's first day at the Imperial College, and she was very high-key and low-key, which made the prince pay attention to her. This is definitely not a good thing. If she is a beauty, the prince may take care of her. Unfortunately, her temper is not to the prince's liking. I am afraid that the prince will try his best to tease her. Although I can't protect myself, I still can't help but worry about her.
I found out later that I was worried about the wrong partner. I should have worried about the princelings.
The prince blocked Li Yingyu with his dog legs, grinning bared his teeth, saying some nasty words, pushing her around, I really wanted to help her, but I didn't know what to do. Li Yingyu was just stunned for a moment, but then she came to her senses, the blankness in her eyes was replaced by a smile, that kind of playful and contemptuous sneer, I really don't know how a child like her has such complicated eyes, she is obviously older than the people around her They are all young, but their eyes have maturity beyond their age. When she looks at them, it seems that she is in the high clouds, and they are just bugs in the soil.
The prince was naturally irritated, he didn't care about his demeanor, and started to move with a yell. I was shocked and wanted to go forward to help her, but suddenly I was stunned.
Li Yingyu dodged the prince's fist lightly, a haze flashed in her eyes, she rushed out with her right hand and hit the prince's abdomen with a punch, the prince cried out in pain and fell out. The people on the left and right were startled, but they rushed forward quickly, only heard a few muffled noises, and those people screamed and flew back.
Li Yingyu stood where she was, her hands were still in her sleeves, and even the corners of her clothes were not messed up. She tilted her head and looked around, then walked slowly to the prince, kicked his waist with her right foot, and lazily said: "You didn't learn well at such a young age, you were impulsive and violent, how did Master Zhou teach you?"
The prince gritted his teeth and stared at her: "You dare to hit me! Are you fucking tired of working!"
Li Yingyu sneered, a sharp look flashed in her eyes. "Wait until some of you can beat me!" After saying this, she walked out shaking.
Li Yingyu's walking posture is really special. She always likes to keep her hands in her sleeves, leaning her body slightly backwards, taking a slow step with her left and right feet.
However, in the eyes of some people, her idleness is very dazzling.
I once thought that the prince would use his personal power to harm her, but unexpectedly, instead of doing so, the prince redoubled his efforts to practice martial arts, and went to Li Yingyu to discuss each other every now and then. Li Yingyu's seat was on my left, but it took me a long time to pluck up the courage to speak to her.
"Yesterday, did the prince come to you to discuss with you again?" I asked worriedly, "He has been practicing martial arts very hard recently, have you been injured?"
It took her a moment to recover, and she gave me a strange look. "Experience? Which eye of yours saw us discuss?"
I was taken aback.
She packed up her things and stood up, walked out slowly, and said: "It is obvious that I beat him unilaterally."
I was silent for a while, and followed her out, but although she was swaying like this, her speed was extremely fast, and she disappeared in a blink of an eye.
The arrival of Li Yingyu quietly changed the atmosphere of the Imperial College. It turned out that the atmosphere of Shangwen was replaced by Shangwu. Under the guidance of the prince, all the noble children began to practice martial arts to strengthen their bodies, but not everyone was as lucky as the prince who could "beat Li Yingyu unilaterally". The strange thing is that the prince seemed to enjoy Among them, for three days without being beaten, he felt uncomfortable all over his body.
But the prince was not the only one who was beaten, and I was also beaten.
My mother is an unfavored concubine, so I have the lowest status among my brothers, and I have always been their punching bag. They got angry at Li Yingyu or the prince, and they always want to vent on me in the end.
That day was the same as usual, I was beaten and kicked by my brothers around the corner again, I caught a glimpse of the sky from the corner of my eyes, and then heard the screams of my brothers, the fists that landed on me disappeared in an instant, but a He grabbed my collar and pulled it forward.
Li Yingyu turned her long and narrow phoenix eyes on my face, then turned her head to look at those crying brothers, and said coldly: "Get out of here!"
Naturally, they have gone as far as they can. Li Yingyu, who is even afraid of the crown prince, what else can they do
After driving them away, Li Yingyu turned back to look at me, squinted her phoenix eyes, and suddenly yelled, "Why are you so cowardly! You won't fight back when they beat you!"
I was stunned for a while, then slowly smiled bitterly and said: "Of course you don't understand, I can't fight back..."
If I fight back, they may cause trouble for my mother and concubine.
Li Yingyu snorted, let go of her hand, and took a step back, "Of course I don't understand what a coward like you is thinking. If someone dares to bully me, I will endure it now, and I will bite them to death one by one in the future!"
When she said this, there was a fierce flash in her eyes, but it was fleeting, and in the blink of an eye, there was that lazy, vague smile again.
Her words have always been hidden in my heart.
If someone dares to bully me, I will endure it now, and I will bite them to death bit by bit in the future!
She must not know that it was her words that changed my life. Those who bullied me and my mother and concubine will have to pay the price one day!
From that day on, I started to get closer and closer to her, because we sat close and gradually became familiar with her. In fact, she is not such a cold person, she is just too lazy to deal with people. She talked the most about her master, Shen Dongli. Only when she talked about that person, would she laugh from the bottom of her heart, and her whole body would light up, and then I knew that there was only one Shen Dongli in her heart.
I feel a bit bitter in my heart, maybe the crown prince will be like me, the way he looked at Li Yingyu gradually became mixed with other emotions, but I am sure, Li Yingyu must have never noticed, her eyes are full of It's all the other person.
She also whispers to me sometimes. For example, on the first day at the Imperial College, the reason why she asked Mrs. Zhou to hit her right hand was to make the master feel distressed. She deliberately endured the pain to hold the chopsticks. The master felt distressed when he saw it, so he would feed her himself...
Speaking of Shen Dongli, she would be in high spirits, giggling and giggling, completely different from her usual self. All in all, she is a very contradictory and strange person, people can't help but be attracted to her, and get stuck a little bit.
The prince began to strike up a conversation with her awkwardly, and even played hide-and-seek with her... Li Yingyu froze for a moment as if seeing an idiot, and then nodded. But I know that she must not play cards according to common sense. Sure enough, when it was her turn to hide, she went home and left, and when it was her turn to arrest, she also went home and left... The prince, who had been hiding in the water tank all night and caught the wind and cold, questioned her angrily. Yi Tan, innocently said: "There is no rule that you can't hide in your own home..."
The prince's hand trembled for a long time, and finally fell down weakly.
Li Yingyu's "unlearned and incompetent" and "corrupted atmosphere" finally aroused Zhou Taifu's dissatisfaction, which broke out one morning.
"Li Yingyu, you must have missed your homework yesterday." Zhou Taifu said while suppressing his anger.
Li Yingyu smiled and said, "Teacher Shengming."
Taifu Zhou's mouth twitched. "Do you know what your homework was yesterday?"
Li Yingyu was stunned for a moment, and turned to look at me. I was about to remind me when I heard Taifu Zhou yell, "Sit down!" Then he said to Li Yingyu: "If you can't write down yesterday's homework today, then I can only ask you to drop out of school!"
Li Yingyu was stunned, lowered her eyelids and pondered for a moment, then raised her head and said, "The students did their homework, but they were scared by the Taifu just now and forgot, so I wonder if I can read it again."
Zhou Taifu snorted and said with a smile: "Yes." But he still didn't let us tell Li Yingyu what homework was yesterday, and I'm sure Li Yingyu didn't know.
The only reminder is a copy of "University" on Zhou Taifu's desk.
Li Yingyu took out the dusty "University" from under the table, flipped through it page by page in front of everyone's eyes, and quickly finished a book, looked up at Taifu Zhou, picked up a pen and wrote: "The way of university lies in Ming Mingde Be close to the people, stop at the ultimate good..." I wrote along the way, occasionally paused a few times in the middle, dazed for a while, and then picked up the pen and continued to write.
There was silence in the classroom.
Finally, Zhou Taifu shouted: "Enough, bring it!"
Li Yingyu laughed dryly, sent a stack of thick paper up, and said flatteringly: "Teacher Zhou, don't drive me away, or my master will be angry, and once my master is angry, something will happen..."
Zhou Taifu ignored her, snorted coldly, took the paper and read it, startled at first, the more he looked, the more serious his expression became, after quickly scanning a few pages, he slapped the paper on the table, and sighed: "Go back."
Li Yingyu slipped back as if she had been amnesty, picked up "University" again and sat upright. Taifu Zhou glanced at him, and said slowly: "The 30 chapters of "The Analects of Confucius" copied yesterday will be handed in later, and we will start studying "Great Learning" today."
Li Yingyu was stunned for a moment, and then she realized that she was swayed by Mrs. Zhou.
Why did Master Zhou let her stay when she made a mistake in her homework? I have been sitting next to her and watched. I can read ten lines at a glance, never forget, and write nearly 1,500 words of "University" by heart. There was a sigh.
Since then, Zhou Taifu has become more and more interested in Li Yingyu, and seems to want to cultivate her, but Li Yingyu's attitude is perfunctory, seeing that she can't hide, she just gives up on herself, and spends all day with the dude, fighting crickets and cocks, gambling, gambling, what kind of tricks? What, he also gained a lot of fame in the Tao. Zhou Taifu frequently mentioned "Injury to Zhongyong" in class, but Li Yingyu smiled smirk, saying that she was "out of everyone's eye". After a year of this, Zhou Taifu was also disappointed.
Later, Shen Dongli became the prime minister, and as entrusted by his father, he came to the Imperial College for a few days a month to take over as a substitute teacher. During those few days, Li Yingyu looked like a different person, with piercing eyes, and her eyes followed Shen Dongli around. Know what's going on. The prince said sourly: "Li Yingyu looks like a dog saw shit."
When this word reached Li Yingyu's ears, the prince was unsurprisingly beaten again unilaterally.
I said to Li Yingyu, "The prince likes you very much."
She froze for a moment, then said in a low voice, "It's not like a dog likes shit, is it?" After she finished speaking, her complexion changed drastically, she gave a bah sound, stomped her feet and left.
If one day the prince becomes the emperor, Li Yingyu, no matter how powerful you are, can you still escape his palm
I looked at the back of her going away, a little worried and a little sad.
Not long after, Li Yingyu left the Imperial College, happily packed her luggage, and left with the helpless Xiang Xiang. Before leaving, she said that I was the only little brother of hers in the entire Imperial College. I smiled wryly and didn't know how to respond.
Not long after, I heard that she had left the capital and met Prime Minister Shen in the palace. When he asked about her, he was vague and left in a hurry.
In fact, at that time, I already had my own information network, and I knew where she went, but some things cannot be conveyed by superficial information after all.
Li Yingyu once said that she dreamed that she was a sea dongqing.
Hai Dongqing, the king of the northern sky and the king of eagles, yearns for the widest world, which cannot be captured or tamed, while Li Yingyu, she only stays for one person.
I thought so at the time, and I was willing to lose to Shen Dongli.
But if there is room for other people by her side, in her heart, why can't there be me
I can not be reconciled.
What is even more unwilling is the prince, he has already made a move.
It's just that he still doesn't understand - the praying mantis catches the cicada, and the oriole follows.
Li Yingyu, one day it will be mine.
