Views:

"His Royal Highness?" Seeing Qin Yi rubbing her fingers, Chu Jinyao couldn't help but call out softly after not speaking for a long time.

Qin Yi returned to his senses: "It's okay. Why are your fingers always cold, is it that their earth dragons are not hot enough?"

"No, I always do this in winter." Chu Jinyao drew back her hand and felt a slight coolness on her face. Chu Jinyao said: "I seem to have a cold body, and my hands and feet are cold every winter. But this is also good. In summer, I am more comfortable than others."

Qin Yi laughed after hearing this: "Okay, you'll save money for the palace. Didn't you clean up the study room? Let's go. I brought back a few folds today. It's really good to borrow your land."

At this time, it would be too confusing to mention the study in the front hall. Chu Jinyao smiled silently and asked for a seat for Qin Yi. After the two of them sat down, Chu Jinyao was taken aback by looking at the book that Xiao Linzi had spread on the table, "Your Highness, is this okay?"

"Why not. Those old foxes are very smart. It's so cold, and they want to go home faster than anyone else. It's going to be an annual leave anyway, and Wenhua Pavilion is occasionally missing a few days, so no one cares."

Chu Jinyao also sighed after listening to it: "I used to think that these officials and lords in and out of the imperial city were too powerful, and all major national affairs were handled by them. Now it seems that no one's life is easy."

"You're the only one who cares about others. By the way, where did you see what I told you yesterday?"

Chu Jinyao had a headache when she heard this. Chu Jinyao was frightened by Baoqing and a few people not long ago, she did a lot of useless work, and rote memorized many difficult clauses that she didn't understand at all. After she was dressed by Qin Yi, the more she thought about it in the next few days, the more angry she became. She has already reluctantly recited a lot. If she just gave up, she would have been slipped all the way. It is better to make mistakes and think through these undigested things. At least she can deceive herself to learn.

Chu Jinyao went to greet the empress early this morning, and after that, she subdued Hong mama. She really didn't have time to review what Qin Yi said yesterday about the chief justice. Now that Qin Yi asked, she blinked her eyes guilty and didn't dare to speak, so she kept staring at Qin Yi with such pitiful eyes.

When Qin Yi grew up, it was the first time that he had to worry about other people's homework. This person was still his own wife. Now his only student is acting like a spoiled child with his eyes, trying to cheat for personal gain, Qin Yi's dignity as a teacher and a husband immediately loosened: "I just want to read the book, you should take advantage of this time to review."

"Well." Chu Jinyao quickly added, "Your Highness, you are so kind."

Seeing that she passed the test smoothly, Chu Jinyao quickly opened the book to review. While recalling what Qin Yi said yesterday, she copied all the scriptures and Moyi.

Qin Yi sat opposite Chu Jinyao, finally opened the official business that he brought back from the previous dynasty, and slowly approved it.

Although neither of them spoke, the atmosphere in the room was extraordinarily warm. Qin Yi always thought about it for a while when he opened the booklet, and after he made up his mind, he started writing like a fly and quickly wrote the approval on the booklet.

Qin Yi wrote seven or eight papers in a row, and gradually got tired of it. He stood up and went around to the other side to see Chu Jinyao.

In contrast, Chu Jinyao's attitude was much more correct. She wrote every stroke with care, even after so long, her wrist and spirit couldn't stand it, but before the expected effect was achieved, she refused to stop.

Qin Yi watched it for a while and admired Chu Jinyao's tenacity. If this was one of his subordinates, he would be very happy. But Chu Jinyao is not, Qin Yi is not only unhappy, but also a little distressed.

"Writing for so long, are you tired?"

"Some." Chu Jinyao took a deep breath and said, "Wait a minute, I'll finish writing this page."

Qin Yi looked at it for a moment, and couldn't help leaning over. He wrapped his right hand around Chu Jinyao's shoulder, held her hand gently, and led her to write a pen on the paper.

"You are too deliberate when you tick, you want to do this."

The sun hit the two of them quietly, and there seemed to be golden dust floating in the air. The two of them are sharp and handsome, and the other is splendid and rich. They were originally two completely opposite looks, but now their faces are overlapping, they unexpectedly fit together.

Xiao Linzi was guarding the door of the study. Although he didn't deliberately look inside, he inevitably looked at the situation in the room. Xiao Linzi saw with his own eyes that his own prince taught the prince concubine Mo Yi, and then led the prince to write with his own eyes. With patience, the grand master of the past could definitely cry when he saw it. How should I say it, Xiao Linzi didn't see it anyway.

Xiao Linzi lowered his voice and whispered to another valet beside him: "Do you think that since the wedding, the prince has laughed a lot more."

Apparently the other valet also felt the same way. Who was the Crown Prince two years ago? No one in the Forbidden City knew about his prestige. Born from a noble background, blessed by nature, and a person who was collectively held in the palm of the hand of the previous dynasty in the harem, Qin Yi was simply born domineering and arrogant. There are not a few arrogant and generous sons in the capital, but as long as they hear the three words of the prince, everyone will give in three points. Who would have thought that two or three years later, the crown prince would be patient and meticulous and teach people to write one day.

Although Xiao Linzi tutted tut tut on his lips, he was sincerely happy for the prince in his heart. He came to the Prince's side for a short period of time, and when he saw the East Palace, Qin Yi had already been named the Prince, and he had developed a cold and impatient temperament. In these years of ups and downs, it is not that there are no difficulties and dangers and life is on the line, and it is not that there is no woman to show affection to the prince and want to climb the big ship of the East Palace, but Qin Yi has always been indifferent. The untimely death of Empress Wenxiao and the double betrayal of her father and aunt caused Qin Yi too much damage. Until Qin Yi grew up, he was already strong enough, but he still couldn't get rid of this influence.

So Xiao Linzi was really happy to see the current scene. He heard Tang Xinyi say that since Empress Wenxiao left, the crown prince has rarely talked to anyone. Elder Ge and Taifu are eagerly concerned about Qin Yi's studies, for fear that he will grow crooked, but how can they talk coldly with Qin Yi and care about the psychological state of the young prince? On the contrary, a rational, indifferent and ruthless heir is what they want to see.

Xiao Linzi also thinks that the prince is a powerful prince, and he will be a qualified prince in the future, but as the valet next to the prince, his position is different from that of the courtiers outside. Now that the crown princess is here, Xiao Linzi thinks it's good to be able to talk to the prince about "gossip" that has nothing to do with the government and to care about the prince's warmth.

The snow outside the house has not yet melted, and the air is filled with a blunt coldness, and in the palace separated by a screen window, the golden beast curls out a fragrance, the five-span palace screen is rich and elegant, and the cold winter outside is like two worlds. Qin Yi held Chu Jinyao's hand and led her to write stroke by stroke on the paper. Chu Jinyao's heart suddenly settled down.

I have guests, who are encouraging and playing the sheng, and the qin and the serpent on the side, so please be quiet. Poems that used to be abstract, suddenly become vivid.

In the study, Chu Jinyao wrote a large page with Qin Yi's "help" and ended today's homework very happily. She packed all her things, then propped her chin up to watch Qin Yi do the business, while talking to Qin Yi one after another.

Chu Jinyao talked nonsense for a long time, and suddenly remembered that the suspected pregnant concubine hadn't told Qin Yi yet. Chu Jinyao lay on the table and quietly pulled Qin Yi's sleeve.

"Your Highness, I have something important to tell you."

Qin Yi just smiled lightly, apparently not taking this so-called "important matter" seriously. In the past, his handling of court affairs was an extremely serious matter. Whether it was an internal servant or a counselor, he didn't dare to disturb him when he saw that he was writing, but today there is another Chu Jinyao who came to distract him from time to time. Strangely, though, the feeling isn't so bad.

As for the important things that Chu Jinyao said, Qin Yi didn't care much. With the thought of coaxing Chu Jinyao, he asked cooperatively, "What is it?"

Chu Jinyao lowered her voice even more, and after seeing that there was no one else around, she said in a low voice, "Concubine Hui has a maid next to her. Although she has received divine grace, she has not been canonized. I suspect that she may be pregnant."

Qin Yi's nib couldn't help but look up at Chu Jinyao.

When Chu Jinyao caught Qin Yi's eyes, she knew the matter was serious, and her face became solemn: "On the day I gave the Queen's gift, the maid who accidentally swept away when I went out, she reacted very strongly and subconsciously protected her lower abdomen. I have paid careful attention to the palace maid in the past few days, and found that her behavior is indeed suspicious. She almost deliberately avoided contact with everyone, and her expression was very frightened. I just came, and everyone in the palace knew my dowry maid, I don't dare to touch her too much, so I can only try here."

Qin Yi had put down his pen, and lowered his eyes slightly to think about it. Chu Jinyao didn't bother and waited quietly.

If that palace maid is really pregnant with a dragon seed, this should be a great event, why would she be trembling and trembling all day long? Moreover, seeing how she was hiding everywhere and not daring to let others know, it became more and more clear that there was a ghost in it.

Since Empress Xiao Qi entered the palace, the women in the palace, except Empress Xiao Qi herself, have difficulty getting pregnant, and even if they are pregnant, it is difficult to give birth safely. That palace maid's terrified expression may have come from here.

Qin Yi thought for a while, pulled Chu Jinyao over, and asked in a low voice, "Do you know why the oldest child in the palace is already twelve years old, and the other two imperial brothers and I are only one or two years apart, that is, Qin Shu and the others. How many, are they all the same?"

Chu Jinyao had guesses, but did not dare to say. She shook her head: "I don't know."

Qin Yi hugged Chu Jinyao and tapped his fingers rhythmically on the table. Chu Jinyao knew that this was what he was thinking about, so he quietly didn't bother. After a while, Qin Yi said: "Don't worry about this matter, your own safety is the first priority. I will arrange for someone to test the truth and details of that palace maid. If it is true this time, it will be good. opportunity."

good time? What is a good time to do it? Chu Jinyao's hands were cold, but no matter what, she stood by Qin Yi's side. Qin Yi thought about it, but Chu Jinyao didn't answer. The atmosphere in the room was a little solemn. Suddenly, Xiao Linzi's deliberately loud voice came from outside the compartment: "Prince Prince, Prince Concubine, lunch is ready."

"Let's eat first." Qin Yi pulled Chu Jinyao up and went out to eat together. After lunch, the two of them went back to the inner room to rest. Qin Yi and Chu Jinyao sat opposite each other on the couch, and Erxue came in to change tea.

Erxue lowered her head the whole time, her movements neat and quiet. Qin Yi was listening to Chu Jinyao talking, and when he saw Er Xue coming in, his eyes fell on Er Xue inquiringly, not knowing whether he was happy or angry.

Chu Jinyao suddenly became vigilant. Erxue was beautiful and intelligent. She had been rolling and crawling in the palace for many years. Instead of being assimilated by the bottom of the court, she had polished a sense of tenacity. Such a woman should be very popular with men, and when Chu Jinyao worked hard to practice the rules, Qin Yi said that he appreciates this kind of toughness. Could it be that Qin Yi happens to like Erxue's type

Er Xue bowed her body and left, while Qin Yi still looked thoughtful. Chu Jinyao was displeased, and without being rude, she crossed the table and reached out to block Qin Yi's eyes: "Don't look!"

Qin Yi pulled down her hand in disbelief and looked at her helplessly: "What are you doing?"

Chu Jinyao hummed, turned her back, and muttered, "It's fine."

The sound of "it's okay" turns nine and eighteen turns, the sourness almost overflows, how could it be really okay.

Qin Yi laughed in his heart and reached out to scratch Chu Jinyao's ear: "What's wrong?"

Chu Jinyao didn't speak, and Qin Yi's eyes were even more smiling. He turned around and gave him a soft look, and said to the servant waiting in the room, "Come on."

How could the palace servants serving in the room not understand it, so of course he immediately bowed his head and stepped back. When there were no idlers, Qin Yi stood up and walked in front of Chu Jinyao, bent over to pick Chu Jinyao's chin, and his tone was full of smiles: "Come on, Crown Princess, look up and let me see, what are you doing? already."

Qin Yi's thumb rested on Chu Jinyao's chin, how frivolous this gesture was, as if a frivolous son was teasing a woman from a good family. Chu Jinyao tried to dodge back, but did not break free. She raised her head angrily and stared at Qin Yi: "Who did you learn this from, frivolous!"

Qin Yi found out that Chu Jinyao was swearing, and he just said a few words over and over again. Just like now, he was clearly angry, his eyes were round and big, and his eyes were wet, like a herbivore whose territory had been violated. However, even so, she would only stare at her and curse: "You are frivolous!"

After Chu Jinyao finished scolding people consciously and imposingly, she watched Qin Yi start to laugh. His eyes lit up first, so dazzling that people didn't dare to look at him, and then a smile appeared on his lips. His entire face became alive because of this action.

Qin Yi's facial features are clear and beautiful. When he looks at a person coldly, his posture is like the moon in the snow on the mountain. He is obviously too arrogant, but it makes life not hate it, as if this person should be born to stand. above all beings. Chu Jinyao's impression of Qin Yi has always been like this. After getting married, Chu Jinyao found out that Qin Yi can also laugh. Even though there is still ridicule and ridicule in his smile, he smiled lightly, and his appearance was lethal. Apparently flipped exponentially. Normally, Chu Jinyao looked at Qin Yi's smile and found it pleasing to the eye, but now she was angry, and Qin Yi was still smiling like this, which was very annoying.

"stop laughing!"

"Okay, I don't laugh." Although Qin Yi said this, the smile in his eyes did not restrain at all. Chu Jinyao's frizzy appearance is so cute, and it evokes the evil factor in Qin Yi's bones even more.

Qin Yi reached out and rubbed Chu Jinyao's bun, until she made a mess of her neat and dignified bun, which made her feel more comfortable. Seeing that Chu Jinyao was still sullen, Qin Yi took off the hairpin on her hair and adjusted it to the position she liked, while pulling it out, she slowly said, "I just saw that palace maid, just want to know what the Crown Princess is these days. What did you do. Where do you think about yourself?"

Chu Jinyao knew that she couldn't hide from Qin Yi. Chu Jinyao had some taste. He knew her stuff like the back of the hand, but if Qin Yi was doing something outside, she would definitely be sold and still counting the money. Chu Jinmiao said, "They are the beauties that the queen gave you, so what will I do?"

Qin Yi laughed, pinched her nose lightly, and said, "Fight up and be hard on me." Qin Yi paused, then suddenly said meaningfully, "If you balance the power in the harem, you will have a hard time walking. , it's better to change the method." For example, persuade him to let him come forward and send away the four palace maids. It's simple and hassle-free without any hassle.

Hearing this, Chu Jinyao deliberately cast a tender and sullen look backward: "Is His Royal Highness such an unprincipled person?"

"Not necessarily." Qin Yi also looked at her with a smile, "You might as well try."

Chu Jinyao finally couldn't help laughing: "Your Highness, you are the prince, the foundation of the country, don't do this!"

Qin Yi was also amused. He passed his fingers through Chu Jinyao's hair, feeling a little regretful in his heart: "Do you still want to do it yourself?"

"Well." Chu Jinyao replied in a low voice, "I can't always rely on you."

Qin Yi wanted to say why not, he was her husband, and he should have let her rely on him for the rest of his life. But Qin Yi also understands Chu Jinyao's scruples. Qin Yi can settle it once or twice, but what about in the future? After all, Qin Yi couldn't stay in the harem all the time. There were always places he couldn't see. Chu Jinyao tried to make a tentative move by himself. Learning to stand in the harem was actually the smartest way.

"The only way to stand up is to stand up for yourself." Chu Jinyao said, "Your Highness, you taught me this in the Marquis of Changxing, and I've been learning it."

"That's right." Qin Yi wanted to sigh for some reason. Intellectually it was one thing, but in fact it was another one. Qin Yi sighed, "I regret teaching you this."

"why?"

Because he didn't expect that Chu Jinyao would become his wife in the end, and he taught him to teach him. But Qin Yi didn't say what he really thought, but deliberately said: "It may be because you are too stupid."

Chu Jinyao waited happily for the next words, but when she heard this, she was immediately annoyed, and turned around and hammered him with her fist: "What did you say!"

Qin Yi could hold Chu Jinyao's two fists with one hand, and let Chu Jinyao let out his anger with a smile, and Chu Jinyao was also very measured.

After the two were tired, mainly because Chu Jinyao was tired, the two of them cuddled quietly and rested. Chu Jinyao leaned on for a while and asked in a low voice, "Your Highness, you know what I've done these days?"

"Obviously."

"Then have my student embarrassed you?"

"No." Qin Yi couldn't help but softened his voice and said in a low voice, "You did a good job."

Chu Jinyao also knew that these words had a lot to coax her, but she didn't want to study it in detail, but held Qin Yi's hand and looked at him with a stern gaze: "Your Highness, I will definitely grow into someone who can stand by your side. the princess."

"Okay." Qin Yi looked into Chu Jinyao's eyes, almost falling into this gorgeous halo, "I'll wait."
