Chapter 75: Punishing Scoundrels at the Horse Racing Meeting ([-])

"You are so young, why are you sighing? I have to come to teach you. The emperor said that the weather is too hot, so you only have to attend class for half a day."

Shen Ning's last words swept away the gloomy atmosphere in the study, and his casual and unrestrained attitude quickly narrowed the distance between him and everyone.

"Brother Shen is so interesting, he can play with everything." Ye Xingye turned around and whispered to Ye Lingxi.

Then when he turned around, Ye Xingye found that the brother Shen he was talking about was standing beside his desk and looking at him with a smile.

"What are you talking about? Are you talking bad about me?"

When Shen Ning glanced at Ye Lingxi, she blinked at her.

Ye Lingxi: "..." Doesn't this eldest brother have any weird hobbies?
Next, Ye Lingxi discovered that this eldest brother was always looking at her and smiling at her. She really wanted to report that there was a pervert in her father's study.

Halfway through the class, Shen Ning stood by Ye Lingxi's desk and announced a quarter-hour break.

"Brother, there is some candy here, do you want to eat it?" Shen Ning shook a purse in his hand. Although he had a face as beautiful as the breeze and the bright moon, the words he said were so obscene that it made people get goosebumps all over his body.

Ye Lingxi felt that the buns she had eaten in the morning were churning in her stomach, and her whole body was about to explode.At this moment, a tall figure stood in front of her, and a faint cold fragrance penetrated the tip of her nose. The churning feeling in her stomach immediately eased a lot, and her hair became softer.

"Brother Yan, he always stares at me and smiles at me in class. I'm afraid." Ye Lingxi hid behind Yan Fei and whispered at a volume that was just enough to stay within one meter of the desk.

The next moment, Shen Ning was surrounded by one pair, two pairs, three pairs, four pairs, five pairs...within a radius of one meter.

"Brother Shen, why are you always staring at Lingxi?" Ye Xingye still wanted to give the other party a chance to explain. If the explanation is not clear, don't leave.

Being stared at by pairs of eyes, Shen Ning also felt a little stressed.

"Who do you think I am? Do you think that a handsome young man like me would have some ulterior thoughts about a little girl?"

Ye Lingjue said calmly: "No."

Shen Ning held his forehead and sighed: "This is why you have no excuse to accuse someone." He explained earnestly, "I see that you are usually quite smart, but why are you all so stupid now? I It’s not that I don’t have a confidante, I’m sorry you don’t know what a confidante is, so it’s all in vain. In short, don’t worry, the little princess can also rest assured. I am definitely a gentleman. To tell you the truth, it’s the emperor who wants me to take more care of the little princess. , The emperor said that the little princess is young and asked me not to scare her. I also specially prepared rice dumpling candies. Children outside the palace love to eat these."

As she spoke, Shen Ning opened her purse and poured out a few rice dumpling candies. Then she stretched out her hand towards Ye Lingxi who was behind Yan Fei. For the sake of the queen, she reached out and took one.Then Zhao Ce said he wanted to try it too and took one. Then Ye Xingye also took one, and Hu Yuhan also took one. Jin Yao slipped in from outside and wanted to eat rice dumpling candy, and then a few more kids came over. Young Master...The meeting gifts brought by Shen Ning have been distributed like this.

After the half-day class in the morning, Shen Ning did not assign any homework.He also said that there was a horse racing meeting at the racecourse, and asked who wanted to go with him to see it. Hu Yuhan took the lead and was the first to say they wanted to go, and soon five or six more people said they wanted to go.Hu Yuhan came to pull Ye Xingye back, and a group of seven or eight people followed Shen Ning out of the palace.

Not long after Tong Yanfei and Su Shi said goodbye, Ye Lingxi saw her second brother standing under the shadow of a tree on the roadside in front of her. After she walked over, she said before he could speak: "Father said that the weather is hot, let's I don’t need to practice archery anymore, I’ll practice again when the weather cools down.”

Ye Lingjue said: "Didn't you ask me to teach you how to play chess before, but now you don't want to learn?" Ye Lingxi thought for a while, thinking when did he say this, and when he thought about it again, he remembered it. When she woke up, she found herself rejuvenated, but it had been a month, and she never mentioned it again. Why did her second brother suddenly want to teach her how to play chess on a whim?

Before she could figure out the problem, she listened to her second brother's instructions to He He, "Go back and tell me that the princess will come to my place for lunch."

Hehe looked at Ye Lingxi with some embarrassment, not daring to make the decision without permission.

"Go." Ye Lingjue gestured.

He He couldn't pretend that he didn't hear or see, "Princess, I'll go back and talk to the queen first." After saying that, He He resigned and left.

Not long after arriving at Yuyuan Palace, lunch from the imperial dining room was delivered.

During the meal, Ye Lingjue served Ye Lingxi three or four times and told her to eat slowly. She was more attentive than her brother. This lunch made her a little stressed.

After silently picking up a bowl of rice, she put down her chopsticks and stopped eating. Ye Lingjue asked someone to come in and clean up the bowls and chopsticks. After Ye Lingxi walked around for a few times to eat, he asked Dong Mo to get the chessboard.

There are two jars of black and white chess pieces on the chessboard. Each piece is smooth and delicate, and feels cool to the touch, as if it has been washed away by the spring water in the forest.

Ye Lingxi picked up a white seed and looked at it. Ye Lingjue asked Dong Mo to place the jar of white seed in front of her. After Dong Mo placed the jar of black seed in front of Ye Lingjue, he called Ling Dang and left together.

Ye Lingjue let Ye Lingxi play first. She looked at the chessboard and placed the white stone in her hand at the center, a position that beginners would choose.Ye Lingjue first taught her how to eat zizi, and then mentioned a random sentence.

"Lingxi seems to be avoiding me lately?"

Ye Lingxi silently played with the white pieces in the chess jar for a while, then asked: "Second brother, do you think your father is a good emperor?"

Ye Lingjue smiled lightly and said, "Lingxi thinks so."

Ye Lingxi insisted: "I want to listen to my second brother."

Ye Lingjue pondered for a moment and said, "Father is a good emperor." He picked up a black stone from the jar and put it on the chessboard, "Father values ​​love and righteousness even more."

Ye Lingxi asked in return: "Isn't it good to value love and righteousness? Is it necessary to be ruthless and unrighteous?"

Ye Lingjue said: "For the king, the word "love" is just the icing on the cake." He smiled faintly and reminded Ye Lingxi that it was her turn.

When Ye Lingxi picked up a white stone and placed it on the chessboard, she thought to herself that it was no wonder that her second brother's marriage was not successful in his previous life. He married a second sister-in-law and fell ill just after they got married. Later, he did not have a concubine or anything like that. It turns out that there is no romantic feeling like falling in love at all, and I only think about the highest position. Since I got the highest position, why not hold on to it? Xiyan actually broke through in just three months. In the capital city, in a trance, she seemed to see the day when the city was destroyed again. Cries enveloped the entire capital city, dark clouds blocked every ray of sunshine, and the earth trembled amidst lightning and thunder... That was the last thing she saw. The sub-scene looks like the underworld has opened its door in the human world.
