The Abandoned Daughter

Chapter 36: Met Xiao Junxi by chance

Views:

The three brothers and sisters went out talking and laughing, and the gentle night breeze swept away the depression just now.

The two sisters were shopping along the street, and their interest was unprecedentedly high. It was only a pain for the eldest brother of the Xie family behind him that his wallet was half empty. What made him speechless the most was that his arms were covered with many strange objects that he couldn't name.

Xie Huainan glanced at the snickering young man behind him, and raised his eyebrows immediately, "Jiubao, what are you doing standing still? Why don't you come over here and help me carry it."

Speaking of Linjiang Tower, almost everyone in the huge capital knows about its existence.

It is said that there are many allusions to this building, but these have always been passed down by word of mouth among literati, and their authenticity needs to be verified.

However, there is indeed such a thing that is recorded in historical materials, included in formal documents, and is a real object.

Li Yun, a talented man from the south of the Yangtze River in the previous dynasty, died and lived here. Although he was depressed in official circles, he was still high-spirited and high-spirited when he reached the high platform of Linjiang Tower.

It is said that on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, he drank and wrote poems in Linjiang Tower. He was so unhappy that he ended up writing the Linjiang Tower poem in an essay, which is well known to women and children.

How to describe the grand occasion at that time? It is said that it was Linjianglou Fu who became famous. On the second day, princes and nobles rushed to the door and promised to buy it with a lot of money. The shoes of those rich people were trampled by the small threshold of the Li family.

However, the talented man did not make any remarks about this, and just gave it to the shopkeeper of Linjiang Tower, saying that he would pay for the wine in the future.

Even now I feel excited to tell such a story. After all, although the spiritual world of literati is small in scope, it is too exciting and colorful.

Even now, the previous dynasty has become ancient, but no matter how the dynasties change, the glory of the literati cannot be buried. This is an undoubted point, and it is really difficult to deny.

Therefore, even now, the Linjiang Tower is still shining brightly. Even people like Xie Ruzhuo who have lived two lives are still filled with emotions when they stand downstairs.

"Brother, I heard that you are teaching calligraphy to Xiao Yong'an these days. Then, when I bring him here next time, I will definitely test him on how to pronounce these four characters. If he can't pronounce them, he will be covered next month. How about my rouge and gouache?”

The two sisters had been walking on the street for more than half an hour, and now they were almost out of interest. Seeing their brother greeting his servant in a panic, they immediately started to make fun of him. Xie Ruyue usually felt that this elder brother was too boring and always looked depressed. Now he was outside, playing around, and he spoke hurriedly, causing the waiter at the stall next to him to look at him. Submitted.

Hearing Xie Ruyue making fun of Xie Huainan, Xie Ruzhuo immediately laughed and said, "It is said that my eldest brother could recite the complete Linjiang Tower Fu when he was six years old. His serious appearance at that time made the family extremely surprised. Now you can actually I’m talking about this because I haven’t been taught a lesson by my big brother for a few days.”

Seeing a grown man actually blushing on the street, Xie Ruzhuo felt a smile welling up in his face. I thought that the little thing who came to the house was naughty and liked to stick to me all day long. My elder brother taught him how to practice calligraphy. He was just asking for torture, so he immediately defended himself.

Xie Ruyue immediately became jealous that the younger sister was so protective of her elder brother, "How can I? I just saw these four words, so I asked you about Lin'er casually. Is it worth your while? I think you are the one who deserves it. Big Brother’s has been sorted out.”

As soon as these words came out, Xie Ruzhuo immediately counterattacked, "Xie Ruyue, return me the cakes you just bought and the pair of earrings. I paid for them myself, but you just put them in your mouth and put them on your ears." ”

Upon hearing this, Xie Ruyue immediately shrunk by three points, changed her face to a flattering smile, and said, "Sister, don't be so stingy. It's really not your style to get so angry just because of these few words. You Look, there are already a lot of people along the moat. When we found a seat, we could just watch the beautiful scenery of the river lanterns flowing down the water. It was really a great enjoyment to think about it."

Xie Ruzhuo accepted it as soon as he saw it, and followed her words and said with a smile, "That's fine. The lanterns tonight are indeed worth watching. Let's go in. It's going to be late. There's probably no room left to stand."

Xie Huainan shook his head slightly as he watched the two sisters fighting, and finally followed him into Linjiang Tower.

These two little ancestors usually behave well at home, but they didn't expect to be so wild when they came out... It's also their fault that they are easy to be soft-hearted. They agreed to their sister so easily, and even themselves became so wild. Became an accessory...

Looking at the Linjiang Tower poem specially framed with rice paper on Linjiang Tower, Xie Huainan felt that he was about to cry without tears.

"Are you here to watch the lanterns or have a meal? If you are here to eat, there are seats on the second floor. If you want to find a good seat to watch the lanterns, please forgive me that the small building no longer has any private rooms. Please forgive me for any inconvenience."

Drinking wine in the wind, surrounded by literati discussing the past and present, and the undulating lanterns at your feet, it was originally a very pleasant thing, but after hearing the waiter's words, several people knew that this idea was all in vain.

The Xie sisters' smiles faltered, and Xie Huainan, who followed behind, let out a long sigh of relief, "In that case, I'd better take you back home. We haven't left for a short time today, and it's time to go back." It’s time.”

Xie Ruzhuo's mouth suddenly pouted. She finally came out, but she still hadn't had enough fun.

Suddenly I heard a woman's voice coming from behind me, "Third brother, just this time last year, my mother personally wrote an inscription on the river lantern to pray for our brothers and sisters. Do you still remember it?"

As soon as she finished her words, a gentle voice took over. Naturally, I remembered that what she wrote at that time was the four words "Happy Flowers and Full Moon". Afterwards, she also brought a yellow crab and a pot of chrysanthemums to my room. "

The voice seemed familiar, and Xie Ruzhuo subconsciously turned around and raised his head, only to meet Xiao Xinning's eyes.

As the seventh princess of the current dynasty and the daughter of Concubine Ye Guifei, Xie Ruzhuo was familiar with the name Xiao Xinning, whether in the past life or in this life.

In fact, Xiao Xinning's character was quite good, but she was too domineering and extremely protective of her brother. In her previous life, after she broke off Xiao Junxi's marriage, Xiao Xinning sneaked out of the palace and went to the Xie family to scold her. The relationship between the two of them was thus forged, and whenever they went to public places, Xiao Xinning would get into trouble with her.

Meeting this person at this moment, Xie Ruzhuo couldn't help but feel confused. This is a big holiday. I came out to have fun today, not to be unhappy. Thinking like this, Xie Ruzhuo's steps also changed direction.

She couldn't afford to offend Xie Ruzhuo, so couldn't she afford to hide from him

Unexpectedly, the lady opposite didn't have the same idea at all, and actually started to use sticks and sticks as soon as she came up.

"Xie, Ru, Zhuo! How guilty are you that you want to hide away when you see me?"

The moment Xiao Xinning saw Xie Ruzhuo, her eyes widened immediately. She walked up to Xie Ruzhuo in a few steps, as if she was not allowed to leave.

In the hunt a month ago, when the Third Emperor Brother and Xie Ruzhuo came out covered in blood, Xiao Xinning felt as if someone had pinched his throat, and he couldn't even breathe smoothly.

When he learned that it was Xie Ruzhuo and not Xiao Junxi who was injured, Xiao Xinning was extremely happy at first. Fortunately, someone came to block the attack in time, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable. She really couldn't imagine what she would do if something happened to her beloved third brother, and what would her mother and concubine do? Without the presence of the third brother in that big and cold palace, how would the mother and daughter spend the long and desolate days.

It was only when the shock was over and she saw her third brother holding Xie Ruzhuo in his arms, looking at his anxious eyebrows, and feeling how confused he was for a moment, that Xiao Xinning began to feel annoyed about why she rushed up to him in the first place. What if it’s not yourself but someone else

But what she couldn't bear the most was another thing.

Although it was Xie Ruzhuo who saved her brother's life at the critical moment, this woman actually wasted such precious medicinal materials! You must know that the third brother was born weak and had toxins from birth. Only the extremely rare snow lotus from the Western Regions could save his life. When I asked Third Brother afterwards, he looked indifferent even though he was so painful that he turned white.

Whether it was the friendship between his childhood sweethearts, or the thoughts of his little daughter's family that even he couldn't see clearly, always seeing the culprit now, a lot of explosives in Xiao Xinning's belly were still detonated.

Seeing Xiao Xinning looking at him like an enemy, Xie Ruzhuo suddenly felt helpless. Although she had gone too far in her previous life, she had never done anything she shouldn't have done to Xiao Junxi in this life. Why does this girl have such an attitude of just taking it easy

"This girl, who are you? We don't know you, do we?" Since she couldn't afford to offend, she just pretended not to know her. Xiao Xinning didn't dare to reveal her identity on the street anyway!

"Xie Ruzhuo, although I knew you were unruly and unreasonable before, I didn't know you were so shameless! You robbed my third brother's things and you still dare to pretend that you don't know me? You can't be so unethical." When Xiao Xinning saw that she still refused to admit it, he immediately became furious and started to speak out loud.

As soon as she said these words, Xie Ruzhuo immediately knew where her anger came from. The reason why she is so angry is because of the Western Region Snow Lotus. But this was not what she wanted to eat. She was shot with an arrow, and when she woke up, the Western Region Snow Lotus was already in her stomach. Who could she ask to reason with? !

"I have learned a lot. It's rare for someone to be so unreasonable, and you are one of a kind." Xie Ruzhuo helplessly held her forehead. When she went out today, she really should have taken a good look at the almanac. She was already in Linglong Pavilion. Enough trouble has been made, but it has only been a short hour, and yet another trouble is about to happen.

Although Xie Huainan on the side didn't know who this girl with a bad tone was, he still knew about the third prince Xiao Junxi. At this moment, when he saw this girl calling her third brother, Xie Huainan immediately understood the identity of this woman.

It's just that my little sister should have no holiday with her, so why does this seventh princess look so bitter and resentful when she first comes out

Xie Huainan was still a little confused for a moment. Before he could react, the third prince opposite had already spoken, "Xin Ning, who allowed you to come out and act like this? Is this how your mother always taught you? ?”
