Chapter 124 The prince has grown up
After the banquet of "Little Bridge and Flowing Water", after chatting for a while, Mrs. Wang couldn't stay too long, so she led everyone to Jia's Mansion, leaving Jia Huan and Jia Lan as companions, and Tan Chun led them The two went to their living quarters, but Shui Rong had nothing to do, so he returned to his study.
Shui Rong walked into the study, bypassed the landscape screen, and saw Xiang Ling sitting sideways in front of the large rosewood marble case, holding a wolf hair in her delicate hands. Her expression was serious, and she was so focused on writing ink on the rice paper that even Shui Rong No one noticed the arrival of others.
Seeing this, Shui Rong stepped forward and looked down at the rice paper scattered in front of the case. The word "Xiang Ling" was densely written on it, and it was also the name of Xiang Ling who was writing the pen and ink at this time.
After finishing writing one stroke after another, Xiang Ling couldn't help but exhale. Just as he continued writing, he suddenly felt something. He glanced sideways and saw Shui Rong watching quietly behind him. The black beads in his willow eyes shrank involuntarily. Shrinking, a delicate little mouth opened slightly.
Upon seeing this, Shui Rong chuckled and scolded, "What an idiot."
Not noticing when he entered the room could be regarded as being too focused, but now that everyone saw him, he still looked dazed and distracted, which was really "coquettish".
Hearing Shui Rong's laughter and scolding, Xiang Ling came back to her senses. Her delicate jade face turned crimson. She quickly stood up and saluted, and said with a slight tremor in her voice: "I have seen the prince."
Shui Rong didn't take it seriously and sat in front of the case. Perhaps because Xiang Ling had been sitting for a long time, there was a hint of warmth on the cold chair.
Xiang Ling, who was standing there, saw the prince picking up the rice paper on the table and looking at it. Her heart trembled for a moment. She licked her tender lips and asked carefully: "Your Majesty, is my handwriting okay?"
Shui Rong refused to answer and asked in a warm voice: "Xiang Ling, have you been practicing calligraphy in the study?"
Xiangling raised her watery autumn eyes and glanced at the prince. She didn't know what the prince meant. Could it be that he was blaming her for being lazy?
Wringing the handkerchief with her bare hands, Xiang Ling whispered: "Didn't the prince let the slaves practice calligraphy in the room?"
Shui Rong chuckled when he heard the words. Although immersed in calligraphy practice will indeed make you lose track of time, Xiang Ling can only practice with two characters. He has been in the study for a few hours. No matter how patient he is, he will be worn away. But this Xiang Ling Still enjoying it, the word "Xiang Ling" is right now, obviously she has worked hard on it, which shows that she really likes it.
After groaning, Shui Rong praised: "Not bad, there is progress. I will continue to work hard in the future."
Xiang Ling's brows were filled with joy when she heard this, and she obviously enjoyed being praised by the prince.
After a moment of silence, Xiangling raised her snow-white and tender face, looked at the prince with autumn eyes, and said softly with a little anxiety in her tone: "Your Majesty, are you free now?"
Upon hearing this, Shui Rong glanced sideways at the beauty standing beside him, and saw that her bare hands were twisting the handkerchief, and her long legs together were twisting slightly, as if she was worried, and she probably guessed something in her heart.
He chuckled lightly, with a joking look in his watery eyes, and asked knowingly: "Why, is it important whether I have free time?"
When Xiangling heard the prince's rhetorical question, Fangxin felt a little panicked. She felt coy for a while, took a deep breath, and said with a full puff, "If the prince is free, can you teach your slave how to read?"
Shui Rong couldn't help but twitch his brows as he listened to the thin trembling sound. This Xiang Ling was indeed a person of Ke Qing's character. These whispers reminded Shui Rong of the scene of serving Ke Qing, and he felt a little inexplicable.
After taking a gentle breath, Shui Rong stood up and searched from the bookshelf. After finding the "Thousand Character Classic" of enlightenment, he said, "Come here, I will teach you how to read."
Zuo Zuo has nothing to do now, and teaching Xiang Ling how to read is not a problem.
When Xiangling saw that the prince wanted to teach her how to read, her willow eyes lit up, the joy between her brows became more intense, and she twisted her small waist to Rong opened the first page of the "Thousand-Character Essay" and was about to teach when he suddenly remembered something and ordered instead: "Xiang Ling, go and call Qingwen."
Qingwen was now Shuirong's maid, and she was supposed to serve her everywhere. However, Yuanchun had something to do, so he asked her to stay at the "Xiaoqiao Family". Previously, he promised to teach Qingwen how to read, but now he has to teach Xiangling. Simply let the two of them learn together.
Xiang Ling is a well-behaved person. Even though she is impatient, she still obediently goes to find Qingwen.
Ning'an Hall.
Concubine Beijing lay on the beauty couch, her beautiful body on full display, and her delicate jade face showed a little tiredness. She rubbed her brows with her bare hands and said with a chuckle: "I didn't know that my mother-in-law also worshiped Buddha. of."
Aunt Rong was massaging Concubine Beijing. After hearing this, she understood in her heart that Concubine Beijing believed in worshiping Buddha. When she met someone with the same belief, she was naturally in a good mood, so she smiled and said, "It's not just the Second Wife." , our princess also advocates worshiping Buddha, this is not just fate."
Concubine Beijing nodded slightly when she heard this, feeling a little closer to Yuanchun in her heart. She was silent for a moment, then suddenly remembered something, and said, "Don't Yuanchun want to renovate the east courtyard? Let Yuanchun build a nunnery." , please invite some sisters-in-law who are profound in Buddhism to take charge."
Grandma Rong nodded when she heard the words. For believers like Princess Beijing, it is difficult to go to the temple every day to cultivate blessings. In this case, it is particularly important to set up a Buddhist temple at home. In addition to Being able to burn incense and worship Buddha every day also has the effect of calming people's hearts.
"I will inform the princess later."
After saying that, Aunt Rong continued to massage, then smiled and said, "I haven't seen the concubine so happy for a long time."
Princess Beijing nodded slightly when she heard this, and said with a smile: "Don't mention it, those girls in the Jia family are all good, especially Yun Yatou, with her charming and straightforward temperament, I like it very much. "
Aunt Rong gently pressed the slender feet of Concubine Beijing and responded: "If Concubine likes it, just invite them to come to the house more often in the future. And didn't you accept Miss Yun as your goddaughter?" .”
Concubine Beijing nodded lightly when she heard this and said nothing more.
After a moment of silence, Grandma Rong turned her eyes slightly and said softly: "Toffee, do you have any impressions of that girl from the Xue family?"
Princess Beijing groaned, nodded and said, "She must be the girl from the Xue family of the emperor's merchant. That girl is beautiful and elegant. She is quite good. Why, why do you want her?"
Aunt Rong pursed her lips and said softly: "Toffee, that girl from the Xue family has been to our palace before, and she was invited by the prince."
Hearing this, Princess Beijing sat up straight, frowned slightly, and asked, "When did it happen?"
Aunt Rong had nothing to hide and said bluntly: "I remember that before the marriage was granted by the Holy One, I heard from people below that the prince specially invited the Xue family's mother and daughter into the house, and I didn't care at that time."
Regardless of whether the palace is big or small, some things cannot be hidden from others. For example, the Xue family's entry into the palace was occasionally mentioned by people below.
Hearing this, Princess Beijing's thoughts changed. The only time her son invited someone to the palace was because of Ke Qing. Now she invited someone again. Baochai was still a pretty person. Suddenly, Princess Beijing The concubine suddenly realized it and lay down on the brocade collapse again, smiling and saying: "Brother Rong has grown up, let him be!"
After hearing this, Aunt Rong pursed her lips and smiled. She must have thought of getting together with Concubine Beijing, otherwise she would not have mentioned this sentence. As the concubine said, the prince has grown up! (End of this chapter)
