The sky is blue, the light is warm, Su Xinyi looks at the prince in front of her, it seems that he is the person she knows, but he is not. Google search reading
At this moment, he smiled at her warmer than the sunlight above her head.
What he said made her feel at ease, and even a little excited that she didn't realize.
"Thank you, Your Highness." Su Xinyi smiled and said, "I just don't know if it will cause you trouble."
"I am the boss of the East Palace, and I can do it if I say it's okay." Yan Junchu looked at Su Xinyi and smiled, "This is not like your personality. If it was before, you wouldn't ask like this."
She always does things when she likes.
Su Xinyi almost reflexively replied, "How can this be the same? This is about His Highness, so I naturally have to ask clearly."
After finishing speaking, Su Xinyi's face froze, and then she coughed lightly and added, "The status of the Crown Princess is too important. I'm afraid that if I go wrong, it will cause trouble for my family and His Highness."
"Really?"
Listening to Yan Junchu's words, it was obvious that he didn't believe it.
But Su Xinyi tried her best to stay calm and pretended not to hear it, and nodded vigorously.
Yan Junchu's eyes were about to fly up, looking up at the sky, trying to suppress his smile, and then asked, "Don't you want to be the Crown Princess?"
How to answer this?
Su Xinyi was very entangled, and her brows were about to be frowned together, "I just feel that my virtue is not worthy of the position. The Crown Princess must be dignified and generous, and outstanding in talent and learning. Naturally, I am..."
"Who said that the Crown Princess must be dignified and generous, and outstanding in talent and learning. If that's the case, why did my father choose you?"
Su Xinyi was stunned.
Yan Junchu was also surprised. He always thought that Su Xinyi was very confident and decisive, but he didn't know that she actually had such a worried and hesitant side. This was something he didn't expect.
"Ayuan, you protected me when we first met, and you did it every time afterwards. Can I ask why? I've always been curious."
Su Xinyi hadn't heard the prince call her by her nickname for a long time. She felt a little embarrassed when he called her like that.
It was at this moment that she suddenly thought that the relationship between her and the prince was indeed different from that of others. At least, she only told him her nickname, and he was the only one who called her by her nickname like that.
It seemed that, in fact, the relationship between them was closer than she thought.
Thinking of this, Su Xinyi felt even more uncomfortable.
Her eyes were flying around, and she was obviously a little guilty. How could she explain this?
Did you save me in your previous life?
This really couldn't be said.
"Your Highness is well-known for your kindness. If you are in danger, I think everyone will help you."
Yan Junchu looked at Su Xinyi's gurgling eyes and knew that she must not be telling the truth, but it didn't matter.
No matter what the reason, she was protecting him, that was enough.
"Then for the rest of my life, please protect me more, Ayuan."
Su Xinyi heard this and immediately said seriously: "Your Highness, don't worry, I will naturally."
He is the person she will protect with her life.
Yan Junchu looked at Su Xinyi's serious and resolute expression, especially the light in her eyes, telling him that she was serious.
Because it was the first visit, Yan Junchu naturally couldn't spend too much time with other people's children in private, so he took Su Xinyi back.
Su Xinyi followed the prince out with a heavy heart, and followed the prince back with a light heart, always feeling like a dream.
Yan Junchu naturally didn't eat at the Duke of Qi's mansion. After all, they hadn't formally exchanged greetings yet, and it would be too abrupt to stay now.
After the Duke of Qi's people sent away the big Buddha of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, they looked at Su Xinyi and asked, "Did His Royal Highness ask you anything?"
Su Xinyi nodded, "His Royal Highness asked why our garden is so small."
Everyone:?
What's the question?
"Then how did you answer?" Su Sanye asked with a laugh. His Royal Highness asked a good question.
Su Xinyi stared at the burning eyes of the crowd and said, "I told His Royal Highness that our family filled the garden and made it into a martial arts field."
Everyone:...
Su Jingmo gently pushed her, "You silly child, are you afraid that His Royal Highness doesn't know your reputation for being tough?"
Su Xinyi was confident this time, looking at her fourth sister and said, "His Royal Highness said that the East Palace has a larger martial arts field than ours. His Royal Highness also said that if I like it, I can change it to what I like."
Everyone:...
Huh?
Looking at everyone's equally puzzled expressions, Su Xinyi felt that she was not stupid for being stunned at the time. Look, everyone is like this.
The eldest lady recovered first, looked at the old master and the old lady and said: "Oh, this is a good relationship. His Highness can say such words, which means that he doesn't care about our Xiaoliu's martial arts at all, and he also let Xiaoliu change by herself. This is clearly a love."
Ye Su was still worried, looking at his wife and said: "Don't say it so lightly. It's better to wait and see before you act when the royal family does things."
Ye Su looked at his eldest brother, "Brother, I think what my eldest sister-in-law said makes sense. No matter what, His Highness didn't ask our Xinyi not to use martial arts in the future, isn't that enough?"
Seeing that her sons had severe headaches, the Madam patted the table and said, "A group of elders have no appearance. Your Highness may be saying this just for show, but can you still take it seriously?" Then she looked at Xin Yi again, thinking about it before speaking, " Xin Yi, Your Highness said so, but you have to be aware of it and try to use it as little as possible in the future."
The fourth lady listened and said: "Mom, there is no need to restrain the child like this, right? This is not the first time that Xinyi and His Highness have met, and they have dealt with things together before. I'm afraid His Highness knows best what kind of temper we Xinyi has, so why should we let him know it best? Where is the child's grievance? If His Highness really cares, I'm afraid the marriage won't happen."
However, the old man remembered the few words the prince said to him alone before leaving. He looked at Xin Yi and said, "What your grandmother said makes sense and is for your sake. But we are not an ordinary family. You are a child of the Su family. We, the Su family, Our ancestors have lived on horses for generations, and they have to carry military instructions since they were born. What’s wrong with being tough? This is the blood of our Su family.”
Having said this, the old man glanced at his eldest son with hatred. This is no longer useful. He can't practice it anymore, but the next generation will definitely start practicing it again.
"Recall all the children who are studying at home, and starting from the day after tomorrow, follow Xin Yi to the martial arts field every day. The descendants of the Su family are holding books like they are killing chickens in vain. It is simply embarrassing!"
A room full of people:…
What's going on here?
"Dad, what are you going to do?" Uncle Su was so frightened that his father's look reminded him of the painful experience he had when he was a child.
The old man looked at his eldest son and said, "You are pretending to be stupid when you say you are honest. How come you are useless and the children below you can't make progress? I have said before that our Su family started with martial arts and went to study to take the imperial examination. It is a joke!" That’s it, one by one, call them all back, you brothers will be on duty, and each of you will keep an eye on these brats for a day.”
Uncle Su's three brothers:...
The old man looked at his sons seriously, "Now that we have a princess in our family, we will no longer be able to live a mediocre life. His Royal Highness is now the crown prince, but His Majesty does not only have one son. The Su family has no other choice, you know. ?"
Although Uncle Su was honest, he was not stupid. He understood immediately, looked at his father with a serious look on his face and said, "Dad, what you said is that your son understands."
The old man nodded slightly, with a hint of exhaustion on his face, "Now that you are the head of the family, you can no longer be as forward-thinking in doing things as before. There are also the second and third sons. You must remember that the prince is good to the Su family, and the prince is bad to the Su family. fall!"
"Yes." Uncle Su and the three brothers responded in unison.
The old man nodded, then looked at his wife, daughter-in-law, and granddaughters, "You should also remember this."
The eldest lady and others hurriedly responded in agreement, and Su Jingmo, Su Xixian and Su Xinyi also nodded immediately.
The old man then walked out with his hands behind his back. Uncle Su hurriedly stepped forward to help his father, but was thrown away by the old man, "You are the only useless ones. I, an old man, can't close my eyes easily. I have to exert my strength." Live a few more years!”
Uncle Su:......
There were internal injuries!
As soon as the old man left, the madam looked at everyone and said, "Let's all leave. Go back and think about what happened today. How to do things must be done with a clear name in your heart." Then she looked at the eldest madam and the second madam, "Both. You guys should also hand over a letter to this girl. Bai Wei is far away. Write a letter. Don't write too clearly. Bai Wei is a smart child and knows how to do it. Speaking of which, Bai Wei's delivery date is not far away. "Children from distant marriages are always worrying. Ask Bai Wei if she wants you to go and sit down."
The eldest lady has been thinking about this for a long time. She is guessing that while she is waiting for the letter to be delivered, she and her daughter will send the letter back again and again. When she rushes over, she will really give birth.
"Mom, let me write a letter and ask about the family affairs and Jingmo's wedding date if I leave..."
"You're not the only one in this house, there's me too. Just write a letter." The wife was very worried about her eldest granddaughter. The child's life was too hard, and now she's married far away. The child is going to die. How about taking a trip without your mother-in-law watching?
The madam's eyes were red, and she agreed quickly and crisply.
The Tai Madam looked at the Second Madam again, "Now you have the most leisure time. You help the third family to take care of Jingmo's marriage. The dowry matters are the same as those of Bai Wei and Lan Qian." After saying this, she looked at Su Xixian again. , sighing in his heart, "Don't worry about Xixian's dowry, we'll prepare it after Jingmo gets married."
Su Xixian was not in a hurry. The dowry she received from a concubine would definitely not be comparable to that of a legitimate daughter, but her grandmother would definitely buy her a dowry that was the same as that of her third sister, and she would be satisfied.
Just as I was thinking about this, I heard my grandmother say again: "When there is a princess in our family, I'm afraid that the Yin family's dowry will be a bit more, so Jingmo's dowry cannot be compared with Chaoyan's. You guys do it first." A preparation.”
Su Xixian was stunned. She didn't expect that her grandmother would give her a dowry.
The third lady frowned and said slowly, "Mom, I will take care of it."
The madam waved her hand, "You all go back."
After leaving Mrs. Tai's yard, Su Xinyi realized that the Su family's financial resources were not very rich. The sisters above her were getting married one after another and needed dowries, and none of the brothers, except the eldest brother, had yet to get married.
Everyone has to obtain fame before they are willing to get married, so the marriage has not yet been decided, but if the marriage negotiations really start, the wives here will come in one by one, and the betrothal gifts will also be very considerable.
Su Xinyi followed her mother back to the fourth room. She hesitated before asking the question.
The fourth lady was quite surprised. She looked at Xin Yi and said with a smile: "Every marriage in the house is determined. For example, for you, the father-in-law will pay part of your dowry, and the fourth wife will prepare part by herself. When your eldest sister got married, , the dowry is 108 taels, and there is also a lot of silver in the box. The same is true for your second sister. When Chao Yan got married, you were not at home, and she also had a dowry of 108 taels, but the silver in the box was less. ”
Su Xinyi understood and asked, "Does the fifth sister have to pay less than the fourth sister when she gets married?"
The fourth lady smiled and said: "That's natural, because the betrothal gift from the Changnan Marquis Mansion is definitely more generous than that from the Yin family. If your fourth sister's dowry is too small, how can you hold your head high in your husband's family?"
Su Xinyi thought thoughtfully. She got married in her previous life, and because of her reputation for falling into the water, her mother specially prepared a very generous dowry for her. She gave her at least half of the family wealth of the fourth house.
It was precisely because of this generous dowry that Shang Congqing and her daughter could not find fault with her and ridicule her.
At that time, she didn't know the difference between the amount of dowry, but now she realizes that there are many things going on here.
"Won't Fifth Sister be unhappy?" Su Xinyi asked softly.
The fourth lady was happy again, "What's there to be unhappy about? Our family, no other family would be so tolerant to concubines. Besides, for a family like the Yin family, the dowry is too generous. Your fifth sister is not a good thing, it’s better to complement each other.”
Su Xinyi didn't understand.
The fourth lady explained to her in detail, "I see that although Mrs. Yin is soft-tempered, she is a strong-willed woman, and Yin Qianhu is very capable and energetic. The dowry we gave to your fifth sister is too much, and people think that we are not good enough." It’s overwhelming. A good marriage is not about having more, but it’s about being in perfect harmony.”
Seeing her daughter still frowning, the fourth lady became even happier, "Didn't you hear your grandmother say that you need to see the betrothal gift from the Yin family before you can decide your fifth sister's dowry? This means that we treat the Yin family as a serious in-laws." Treat them with courtesy."
After finishing speaking, he looked at his daughter lovingly, "Why did your grandfather ask your brothers to abandon literature and join martial arts? It's just so that you, the princess, can be worthy of the prince and enter the court with literature. Our family's foundation is too shallow, etc. It may be the Year of the Monkey or the Moon of the Horse for your brothers to fight for their future, but it will be much easier with the foundation of our Su family. Civilization and military affairs are of equal importance, do you understand?"
Su Xinyi understood. She held her mother's arm and refused to let go. She regretted that she didn't get along well with her family in her previous life. She regretted that after she got married, she couldn't apologize to her family and ease the relationship because of her poor self-esteem.
If people don't get along well with each other, how can they know the depth of affection?
She cut off this line herself, and she had no choice but to carry it on her own.
"Mom, I understand. Don't worry, I will definitely keep an eye on my brothers' progress." Su Xinyi said immediately. This is the biggest contribution she can make to the family now.
The Fourth Madam couldn't help but nodded, guessing that her nephews were least willing to hear this.
"Have you finished the book your grandfather gave you?"
Su Xinyi:......
"Not yet." Those big books made her feel dizzy.
"Read slowly, don't be in a hurry. You have a shallow foundation, but your father is very smart. Only when you calm down can you read it." The fourth lady decided to give her nephews some time to breathe. "You can just keep an eye on them every morning." , the others are your uncles. You are going to be a princess, so studying is very necessary."
"Yes, my daughter has remembered it." Su Xinyi nodded immediately.
The Fourth Madam patted her daughter's hand and said, "Have lunch at my place. You can go back after eating. I have to go back to Gao's house tomorrow. Don't follow me back this time. Wait for some time and the limelight will pass. , I’ll take you back again.”
Su Xinyi nodded, "Okay, then you can say hello to my grandmother, uncle, and aunt for me."
The fourth lady agreed with a smile. She was very happy that Xin Yi could treat her natal family as her maternal family, and she could feel that the child really liked the Gao family.
Su Xinyi went back after lunch without disturbing her mother's rest.
After returning home, she simply went to the study room to study. Her mother was right. Although she had read a lot of books in her previous life, most of them were poems, songs, and the like, such as the history books and biographies that her grandfather asked her to read. She really read them. Very few.
Now I feel a sense of urgency and feel that time is very tight.
While Su Xinyi was studying behind closed doors, the boys of the Su family in the academy received a bolt from the blue. Their family withdrew from school for them and asked them to return home with their baggage.
When Su Qi heard that they were asked to give up culture and join the martial arts, Su Qi felt better. He once lived with his sixth sister down south for a while. Thinking of that history of blood and tears, now he felt like he had picked up a treasure.
After all, after he came back from Huaining, he had to squat on horseback every morning to recite the book, just so that he would not be embarrassed again when he went out with his sixth sister.
Little did he know that before he had to go out, he would first encounter the obstacle of abandoning literature and joining the martial arts.
Life is unpredictable.
Su Qi looked calm, while the others looked dejected.
Su Ju and Su Chu just raised themselves as scholars. There were holes in the flesh on their arms, and there was no use of force at all.
Su Bei is slightly better, but compared with Su Qi, there is still a gap between being a scholar and a scholar.
The four brothers were sitting in a carriage. Su Qi looked indifferent, while the other three looked like they were mourning for their heirs.
Su Ju has the least contact with Sixth Sister, because he really likes reading, and even after returning home, he often keeps reading. Now I am looking at everyone with a blank look on my face, thinking about my miserable future of squatting on horseback, practicing my arm strength, and learning to ride and shoot every day, I couldn't help but almost burst into tears.
With his comparison, Su Bei and Su Chu suddenly felt that the sky was clearing up.
They won't be at the bottom anyway.
Brotherhood?
What kind of brotherhood is there in the martial arts arena? Don’t joke!
The first three cars behind were filled with several people's book boxes. As soon as they entered the mansion, a boy led the car to the stables. The four brothers went to their grandfather to pay their respects first. They looked really tragic.
Su Xinyi was still endorsing the book in the study. Forsythia came in to talk, and then she knew that her brothers were back, "So soon?"
"No, I heard that the palace's carriage was specially sent to pick them up, and that they had already dropped out of school at the academy." Forsythia said, and then lowered her voice, "I also heard that Aunt Weng had received the news. I fainted as soon as I turned it over.”
Su Xinyi:......
Now it’s better, Aunt Weng must hate her to death!
Su Xinyi was right. After Aunt Weng woke up, she stared at the tent with blank eyes. Only her Ya Xiyun was guarding here, so she asked with a calm expression: "Where is the Third Master? None of you have gone back. Third Master?"
Xiyun said hurriedly: "Auntie, as soon as you fainted, I went to find the third master, but the third master was at the old master's place. When he got the news, he just asked the doctor to take a look at you. There was nothing I could do."
Aunt Weng's face turned green when she heard this. The expression on her face changed again and again, and she asked again: "Where is the fifth young master?"
Xiyun had served her aunt for many years, and she felt a little distressed when she saw her like this. She persuaded her in a low voice: "Auntie, the fifth young master has just returned home. Of course, he must first go to the old master to pay filial piety. This is a good thing. The fifth young master will come to see you when he comes back. ”
Aunt Weng's face was dark and gloomy, and she gritted her teeth and said, "I knew that none of them had good intentions. They knew that the fifth young master was a young scholar, and if they insisted on him coming back to practice martial arts, they would obviously ruin his future. !”
"Auntie! You must not say this. I'm afraid it will be bad if the third master hears it." Xiyun hurriedly advised.
Aunt Weng's eyes darkened for a while, "Okay, that's great. Even if he grew up in the countryside, it doesn't matter. Once he steps into the royal gate, the people in the house have to provide for him well. Why did they provide for him? Do you want the Fifth Young Master to suffer misfortune? I know they won’t be happy with me.”
Xiyun was busy comforting her with gentle words. Aunt Weng's depression surged up and she immediately fainted again. Now Xiyun was also frightened and shouted loudly for someone to invite the Third Master.
There was such a big movement in the third room, and the little girl who sent the letter turned pale with fright. She shouted along the way, "Aunt Weng has fainted again. Third Master, please go and have a look..."
So everyone in the house knew about it.
When Su Xinyi got the news, she didn't take Aunt Weng to heart. She just thought that Su Xixian couldn't help but feel a little sad for her.
Aunt Weng went through so much trouble, and in the end it was only the brother and sister who were embarrassed.
The third room was busy all night, and it didn't stop until late at night. Su Xinyi went to bed early to rest after reading the book, and went to the martial arts field early the next morning to wait for his brothers.
Today was her first day, and she was thinking that a group of brothers were descendants of the Su family, so they shouldn't be much different, but the facts cruelly interrupted her fantasy.
He would gasp after running a few steps, kneel down after running around a circle, and squat in a horse stance before even having a cup of tea. Su Xinyi's jaw dropped to the ground and he couldn't pick it up.
Perhaps Su Xinyi's eyes were too straightforward, which made the brothers feel ashamed.
Su Yi hated that iron could not become steel. He pointed at a group of younger brothers and was so angry that he wanted to whip them with a whip.
Su Xinyi took a deep breath, rolled up his sleeves, tightened his belt, put on his leather boots, moved his joints, and showed a very kind smile, "The first lesson today is to run ten laps around the martial arts field. My eldest brother will take the lead, and I will hold the line." !”
As Su Xinyi said that, he picked up the long spear on the weapon rack and used a flower spear with both hands. As soon as the tip of the spear stopped, he pointed it at his brothers, "Brothers, please!"
Su Qi:......
This is life-threatening!
