MTL - Capture the Jade-Chapter 88 he needs to be quiet
Lin Chengyou looked at the purple jade saddle. From the selection of materials to the carving, this thing is ingenious everywhere. I don't know how much time Teng Yuyi has prepared in advance and how much effort he has spent to prepare this eye-catching treasure and deliver it on his birthday. , This heart is even more precious than this dazzling purple jade saddle itself.
How much he likes it.
He liked it so much that he didn't know what to say.
He moved his pace, walked to Duanfu, and then raised his hand to touch the saddle.
As soon as I touched the warm leather and gems, it was as if I had touched my heart, and my heart softened, so soft that it was about to melt.
How could there be such a cute little lady in the world, he could imagine how long it took her to think of using this thing as a saddle.
His heart was hot and hot, and for the first time in his life, he felt so happy that he was dazed.
He smiled and nodded: "Teng Yuyi, I really have you, I don't even know what to say, this is the best gift I've ever received."
"Really?" Teng Yuyi was also happy, she could see that Lin Chengyou really liked it, and the most important thing about giving gifts was to do what she liked. If she could give a birthday gift that satisfies the benefactor, then her hard work was finally not in vain.
Lin Chengyou looked back at her with a smile, his eyes shining like morning stars: "Really."
He said in his heart that, compared to this pair of saddles, knowing her was the best gift he received this year. His heart was warm, and he didn't know what to say for a while, but Teng Yuyi stood pretty beside the lotus pond. The red lotus in the pond was standing still, and the moonlight by the pond was like frost. The setting is like the person in the picture. When he came here, he still felt that the garden was not pleasing to the eye, and now the surrounding scenery is all endearing.
Compared with the treasure saddle in front of him, the Bu Yao in his arms was extremely crude, but since the intention was already prepared, he didn't want to hide it, just rushing to Bu Yao's meaning of Qiongyu, she also I won't look down on it. When it comes to her hands, she can use it as a gadget, wear it, or put it away, as she pleases.
After tonight, he will give her a unique treasure that is even more unique than Ziyu Saddle.
Thinking like this, he put his hand into the front again, but at this moment, Teng Yuyi suddenly crossed his hands and gave him a bow, and said as he bowed, "I was worried that the prince would not like it, but now I can rest assured. They have saved me three times. This kindness cannot be overstated, and I can only express my gratitude for this mere saddle."
Lin Chengyou froze for a moment, great benefactor? Liver and brain smeared?
"What do you want to tell the future generations? Duanfu and I are willing to do the hard work of dogs and horses. Another day I will send someone to send the flower cake to Guanli. It happens that the two priests have never eaten it, so I will give them a taste by the way. ."
Wait, the more I listen, the more wrong it becomes. The flower cake is his own, so why does he even have a share in Jue Sheng and Ji Zhi.
After Teng Yuyi said those words, she was worried in her heart. In front of Juesheng and Qizhi, she wanted to inquire about borrowing life, but when she came to Lin Chengyou, she might not be able to, because the question would make him suspicious. Fortunately, the gift was finally given out. She had achieved her goal tonight.
She turned her head and looked around: "In order to give gifts to the prince, I ran out of the East Garden specially, and I have been away from the dinner for a long time. If I don't go back, my sister and aunt should be worried. This gift is sent to the birthday star. , I am also relieved, Shizi, if there is nothing else, we will leave first."
Teng Yuyi smiled and motioned to Duanfu to present the Ziyu saddle to Lin Chengyou, and bowed to Lin Chengyou again, and was about to leave.
"Wait." Lin Chengyou blurted out.
Teng Yuyi was stunned for a moment: "Is there anything else you can do, Shizi?"
As soon as Lin Chengyou said those words, he began to look at her carefully, with no shyness on his face, he was about to leave after giving the gift, and he kept claiming that he was "the benefactor" without even wanting to say a few words to him.
He was a little lost in his heart. Although he had always sneered at the idea of a talented person and a beautiful woman, he had also heard a few twists and turns describing romance. According to common sense, after the little lady gives gifts to her sweetheart, she should not behave like this.
This is not right, Teng Yuyi doesn't look like he admires him at all.
Teng Yuyi was surprised: "Prince?"
"Don't worry, no one will come here for the time being. I have something to ask you." Lin Chengyou tried to stabilize his mind. Maybe Teng Yuyi was in a hurry to leave because he was afraid of being bumped into, or he just pretended to be calm. It's just that he can't save face, such as how fast his heartbeat is now, only he knows.
"Sir, tell me."
Lin Chengyou didn't know how to speak. He couldn't ask directly, "Teng Yuyi, do you like me?"
It seems that the only way is to directly take out the Bu Yao in his arms.
She is a little lady, she has her concerns, it doesn't matter, then it's up to him. He is Lang Jun, and he is thick-skinned.
He just told her he liked her directly.
She knew that he liked her, so she would naturally put down her worries.
He made up his mind in an instant, and his heart beat a little faster before he opened his mouth. A sudden cough came from the other end, which interrupted Lin Chengyou's words.
This man's voice was a little old, and he was inexplicably familiar, Teng Yuyi groaned in his heart, didn't Lin Chengyou say that there was no one coming over here for the time being, and turned around in surprise, only to find that the person who came was Daoist Qingxuzi.
No wonder even Lin Chengyou's squires dared not stop him.
Master Qingxuzi was followed by Juesheng and Jizhi.
The Taoist priest Qingxuzi walked slowly in front of him with his hands behind his back, and Juesheng and Qizhi followed behind him.
Teng Yuyi turned to look at Lin Chengyou, and sure enough, even Lin Chengyou was stunned.
Fortunately, Lin Chengyou responded very quickly, and turned around to meet him: "Master."
Teng Yuyi took the opportunity to want to leave, but then she thought about it, she was here to give a birthday gift, Jue Sheng and Qi Zhi also knew that the Taoist priest Qing Xuzi had a special place in the hearts of the saint and the king and his wife, it would be rude for her to leave without saying hello. , and there is a suspicion of guilty conscience, and after a little pondering, he calmly follows.
"I have seen the Taoist priest." She bowed respectfully and saluted.
Upon closer inspection, I found that Daochang Qingxuzi had many wrinkles on his face, but his eyes were as bright as those of young people. Although there was not much smile on his face, his eyes were still gentle.
Qing Xuzi snorted: "Pindao Jishou."
Teng Yuyi got up, and asked Duanfu to present the purple jade saddle to Juesheng and Qizhi, and then he said frankly: "The great kindness of the prince, Duanfu and I will keep it in our hearts, and we will be useful to us in the future. , just do what you tell me."
After saying this, he smiled and bowed again, and left.
Lin Chengyou's heart has long been in a mess, looking at Teng Yuyi's back hurriedly leaving, he feels that there are 10,000 words stuck in his throat, but in front of his master, he can only hold on.
"Master, isn't your old man asleep, why did you suddenly come here?"
Daoist Qing Xuzi snorted when he heard the words: "I came out and walked around, I didn't expect to bump into your kid and be stupid."
***
Teng Yuyi didn't go very far over there, and Biluo suddenly said: "Miss, why does the maid think that the prince likes you."
Teng Yuyi was stunned for a moment, and then touched her ears again. She heard it right. Biluo just said that. Even if she heard that Master Jingchen was alive again, it would not make her feel more absurd than this.
"Is this maid crazy? What nonsense are you talking about?" She looked at Biluo in disbelief.
Biluo's face was full of confusion: "But just now the maid looked at her with a genuine look. Prince Cheng's eyes were not right when he looked at her, and she kept smiling at her."
Teng Yuyi sneered, Lin Chengyou smiled casually, even in front of demons and heretics, she could speak and laugh freely. Since dealing with this person, she has never seen him look worried.
"Don't talk nonsense, he looks at everyone like this."
"But-"
Teng Yuyi recalled the situation just now. Speaking of which, Lin Chengyou was a bit strange tonight, he talked more, and his smile was more pleasing to the eye than usual, but don't forget, he didn't smile until he saw the purple jade saddle. He made trouble for her when he showed up, because he thought the wine she gave was not good enough, and he made strange requests.
It is easy to draw the conclusion that he was not in a good mood at first, and only smiled when he saw Ziyu An.
She waved her hand to interrupt Biluo, and took out the sachet from her sleeve: "Use your brain, there is a heartless Gu, this Gu is difficult to understand, even the sage and the Taoist priest Qingxu are worried about this all day long, before they can solve the Gu , Lin Chengyou will never fall in love with any woman."
Biluo still wanted to express her opinion. Teng Yuyi's attention had already shifted to her silk sash. She walked to the bright light and took a closer look, only to find that the silk sash on the right was broken for no reason. From the point of view of the velvet thread, it looks like it has been worn away by something beforehand. The sachet is a silver ball, which is heavy in the first place, and there is her usual rose incense block inside. No wonder the sachet fell off.
So it wasn't that the knot of the silk sash was loosened just now, but someone moved her silk sash beforehand.
This is simply unbelievable. When she left the house tonight, Chunrong and Biluo checked her crony again and again to make sure that there was no problem before putting it on her. Because she has always been extra cautious when she went out, she also checked it in advance.
She was sure that at least before going out, there was no problem with the silk sash and the sachet.
Teng Yuyi's first reaction was to see Biluo. Duanfu was right next to her on the way to the West Garden, and Biluo was walking behind her. If Biluo dared to cut her silk sash under Duanfu's eyelids, Duanfu would Impossible not to notice.
So it won't be Biluo.
Could it be the King of Chun'an County? It's the same reason. When he does tricks on his side, he can't hide the reasoning from Duanfu's eyes. Besides, if the Prince of Chun'an wanted to use her to drop the sachet, he should not return the sachet to her. But not only did he take the initiative to remind her that the sachet was lost, but he left without saying a word to her.
Judging from the situation at the time, it seemed that the Prince of Chun'an was invited there by someone.
Looking at it this way, could it be that it was not the people present who did the trick, but someone who plotted against Duanfu when she was not by her side?
Thinking back carefully, Duanfu was only around when she was at the women's feast tonight.
After entering the table, my sister sat on her right all the time, so the only person to do it could be the one on her left. It happened that the broken silk sash was tied to the left.
In her mind, there was someone on her left. Li Huaigu is the closest to her, Wu Qi is next, and Liu Siniang is further in.
Could it be one of the three? She was silent, harming people always has a purpose. She couldn't figure out which of them she had a grudge against, but it was a fact that her silk sash had been worn away.
Calculating against her and the Prince of Chun'an? To tarnish her reputation? Or is there something else...
***
East across the courtyard, go to the room.
The room was warm, and Jue Sheng and Qi Zhi were busy.
Lin Chengyou offered the teacher a cup of tea with his own hands, and then took the crown hat and the robe that the teacher took off and hung them on the red sandalwood hanger.
Daoist Qingxuzi was not in a hurry to go to bed, he just sat on the bedside and sipped tea slowly in a bedclothes, and when the house was almost ready, he said to Juesheng and Qizhi in a warm voice, "You two should go out first. , Master has something to tell your brothers."
Jue Sheng and Qi Zhi secretly winked at senior brother and pushed them out.
"That purple jade saddle is a birthday present from the little lady of the Teng family?"
Lin Chengyou lifted his robe and sat on the couch beside the bed. Although his heart was no longer at ease, he couldn't help but smile when he thought of Ziyu Saddle.
"Yes." Lin Chengyou was afraid that her master would misunderstand Teng Yuyi, and added solemnly, "Miss Teng is a kind person who repays her kindness. The reason for giving such a generous gift is because I have rescued her a few times before."
Daoist Qing Xuzi stared blankly at his disciple Sun for a long time, and suddenly sighed: "You kid started asking about Heartless Gu a few days ago, because you think you are tempted by this lady Teng?"
Lin Chengyou's face was as if nothing had happened, but his ears were hot. He tutted in his heart when he saw the fire in the eyes of the master, and knew that nothing could be hidden from the master.
"Yes." He simply admitted, "My disciple likes Mrs. Teng. She is... affectionate and righteous, Master, if I have a chance, I will take her to talk to you, and you will definitely like her too."
Qing Xuzi said with a long nose snort, this child is thicker than his grandfather back then, but if you ask, even the next meeting has been arranged according to the situation.
He didn't answer the question, instead he pointed at Lin Chengyou's chest: "There are some good things hidden in your arms, when Mrs. Teng was still there just now, the master saw that you took it to her several times, did you have something for her? ?"
Lin Chengyou looked down, cleared his throat and said, "Oh, my disciple has prepared a gift for Madam Teng in return."
Thinking that it was either precious jewelry or something fun, Qing Xuzi said with a sullen face: "If the master doesn't come to interrupt, will you be sending the things out?"
Lin Chengyou smiled and did not answer.
Qing Xuzi: "Silly boy, don't you first find out whether people like you or not. If they don't like you, and you give something like this to others, do you think they will accept it or not?"
Lin Chengyou's smile was slightly condensed. Before changing it, even if he didn't say it, he would answer in his heart, "Of course she likes me, but we are in love with each other."
But after the previous encounter, he was suddenly a little uncertain.
"I-"
As soon as the words came out, he was slammed by the master: "According to the master, that little lady doesn't like you at all."
Lin Chengyou's heart skipped a beat, and he forced a smile: "Master, you have only met Mrs. Teng on both sides, so how do you know what she is thinking?"
Qing Xuzi pointed to his eyes: "Master Guild will see."
It seemed that Lin Chengyou was expected to argue with him, and added slowly: "Women like a man, and they can't hide their eyes. Before they get married, as long as they see the man in their hearts, they will either shyly lower their eyebrows or be unable to move away. Eyes, but just now, Master Teng looked at you for a while, and that lady Teng looked at you like you were looking at your two junior brothers."
Lin Chengyou stiffened: "Impossible!"
"Silly boy." Qing Xuzi kept shaking his head, "Just think about yourself, are you happy when you see Mrs. Teng?"
That's right.
"Think about Madam Teng again. Did she look like she saw her sweetheart just now?"
Lin Chengyou's heart began to shake. She was a little too calm and calm in front of him, but her mouth was still hard: "If a person is too embarrassed, he might hide it in front of others."
Qing Xuzi stroked his beard and said coldly: "Remember that the master taught you when you were young, to judge what a person is thinking in his heart, you can't just look at the surface, but listen to the breath, no matter how to cover up a person's face, Your breath will betray you, and even in front of your sweetheart, even your heartbeat is different from usual, you just noticed her breath, is it the same as usual?"
Lin Chengyou couldn't laugh anymore. He didn't pay attention to the ups and downs of his mood before, but when he talked about his pulse and breathing, he remembered the night when Li Baixuan taught her Qinggong. In order to help her get started that night, he simply used the lock Soul Zhi directly crossed her true qi.
Through the transmission of the soul lock, he could clearly detect her breathing and pulse, but even if he poured her infuriating energy face to face, her breathing and heartbeat had never been disturbed once.
And that time in the underground palace, when he held her in his arms, he suddenly felt as hot as he had just played polo in the summer. Teng Yuyi was different. After she confirmed that it was him who came to save her, Heartbeat and breathing quickly stabilized.
He was not sure of his intentions before, so he never thought about it. Now that he thinks about it, if Teng Yuyi is interested in him, his palms are on her face, how can he not even disturb his breath.
***
Kuannu, Juesheng, and Qizhi sat side by side on the steps in the courtyard, quietly listening to the sound of the flute from the opposite eaves.
"It's almost midnight, and the front seats are all scattered. Senior brother won't plan to blow it until dawn." Jue Sheng was the first to speak.
"Master said that Senior Brother is unhappy at the moment, and told us not to disturb Senior Brother and let him be alone." Qizhi held his cheeks.
Kuannu sighed: "Speaking of which, I haven't heard the prince play the flute for a long time. How cheerful the tune was in the past, listen to it tonight..."
Qizhi scratched his head: "It's a bit desolate."
Jue Sheng added: "There is still the purple jade saddle next to it."
"Poor." The three of them sighed in unison.
