    Chapter 25 Plaything

    The car curtain was quickly pressed down, regardless of whether it was Zitang's robe or a red skirt, they were all covered behind.

    Everyone coughed, coughed, and looked up at the sky, as if they didn't see anything. Zhou Heshuo closed his mouth, turned around and said casually, "Since there are guests, we won't be bothered too much."

    "Yeah, yeah, let's go back to the car and drink tea and listen to the music." The entourage agreed and quickly opened the way for him.

    Zhou Heshuo nodded and took two steps, then glanced to the side: "Jing Yun?"

    Li Jingyun was still standing by the side of the car, and seemed to be distracted. Hearing the shouting, he moved, but didn't look back: "I won't go, I have to continue looking for someone."

    Zhou Heshuo didn't force it, and only smiled: "Is there anything you need to tell them."

    "Thank you, Your Highness."

    A group of people walked away in a mighty manner, Li Jingyun stared at the car curtain for a long time, and said impatiently: "Why don't you get out of here?"

    The curtain trembled, and then a small paw stretched out and grabbed the edge of the curtain hesitantly.

    Hua Yue stuck out half of her head, frowned at him, and sniffed: "Why are you here?"

    Listen, how arrogant you are to ask, as if he was the one who came to the wrong place.

    Li Jingyun laughed angrily: "If Grandpa wasn't here, how would you know that you are so capable? The plaque of the manor's 'Guangzong Yaozu' should not be hung in the ancestral hall, but should be hung on your forehead."

    Huayue: "..."

    The curtain of the car was opened wide, and Shen Zhiluo looked at him with a sullen face: "Third Young Master."

    "Yo, Lord Shen." Li Jingyun smiled but didn't laugh, "If you're not feeling well, just rest more, why do you always think about other people's maids?"

    "The third son also said that she is just a servant girl." Shen Zhiluo raised his eyelids slightly, "Since she is just a servant girl, why should you be angry?"

    "Don't talk about maids, it's even a dog." Licking his back molars, he hooked his lips, "As long as it's raised by me, there's no reason to wag its tail at others."

    Shen Zhi was overjoyed and raised his sleeves to help his forehead: "Does the dog sell?"

    "Not for sale." He pulled the person over, lowered his body and pinched her paw and waved at him, "See you back."

    Yin Huayue could not wait to bite him.

    Shen Zhiluo wanted to say more, Li Jingyun had already pulled the person back and walked back, the skirt of Huayue Shui lifted up, making an arc in the air, and followed the person like flying flowers.

    He looked at it with a complicated expression, thoughtful.

    Her wrist was so painful that she stumbled all the way. Hua Yue looked up at the man in front and couldn't help but said, "This servant knows the way."

    "Which way do you recognize?" Li Jingyun didn't look back. "Is it the way to the grove, or the way to the carriage?"

    "Young Master." Hua Yue felt amused, "What this servant did did not violate the rules of the General's Mansion."

    "That's true." He all sneered, "After all, the General's Mansion is not so shameless as to write on the bright side the rules that people are not allowed to mess around during the day."

    "..." The face was a little ugly, Hua Yue opened and closed her mouth, pursed her lips and lowered her head.

    Now that she can see clearly, if she wants to expect good words from Li Jingyun's mouth, it is better to dig ivory from Wangfu's mouth.

    There was no sound behind him, but Li Jingyun became even more angry: "Why, do you think that what you said is wrong?"

    "No." Hua Yue said obediently, "Young Master says what he says."

    "Okay." He shook off her hand and hummed, "Did you recognize yourself as a dog?"

    Looking up at him, Hua Yue calmly said, "Wang."

    Teeth grinding, making a creaking sound, Li Jingyun barely maintained his smile: "The lord said that you are in a relationship with others, do you recognize it?"

    Huayue folded her hands and bowed to him respectfully: "Slave acknowledge."

    Li Jingyun was going to die of anger.

    He has lived for 20 years, and he has always been mad at others. For the first time, he was so dizzy by a little girl that he almost lost his footing.

    Last time, knew sophistry, and also knew that he was better than Shen Zhiluo, but now it's better. He broke the jar and looked like he couldn't do anything about her anyway, and he was angry when he saw it.

    "What do you want?" He was extremely irritable. "There are more than 10,000 men in Jinghua. If you want to marry someone, some good people will choose them for you. Why do you need to do that shameless thing?"

    Huayue also thought about it for a while, and then said: "Just Tu Numaid likes it."

    "Hi..." Li Jingyun wiped his face, "Are you blind or something, can you like an embroidered pillow? Besides the good-looking skin, what else is there to like about Shen Zhiluo?"

    The more Hua Yue said it, the more calm she became: "It's enough to look good on the skin, and it's useless to ask for anything else."

    Eyes but no pearls, short-sighted, don't know what to do!

    Li Jingyun turned around and walked away, striding a lot, and the hem of his clothes was fluttering in the wind, but the man behind him followed, walking slowly, but he didn't say another word.

    Back in the car and sat down, he raised his eyes to look at the people who followed, and said coldly, "Why are you following me? Why don't you go back and find your peerless Master Shen?"

    Hua Yue knelt down beside him gently, bowed her head and said, "Young Master Hui, we are about to go to the hunting ground. According to Madam's instructions, you should take this first."

    The white jade mandarin duck pendant that Zhou Heshuo gave her last time was put on a red string by her again, and it was properly placed in the brocade box.

    This thing again.

    Li Jingyun looked at it expressionlessly, his eyes were dark, and after a while, he used his fingertips to hook up the silk rope: "Last time, I asked you, if you don't like it, would you still tie it."

    Yuanyang Pei swayed in front of her, and he looked through the hole in the top.

    Huayue bowed her head respectfully, with no emotion in her amber eyes. She stretched out her hands to pick up the jade pendant, hooked her index finger around his belt, pulled the silk rope inward, passed it through with her thumb, and put it halfway toward the mandarin duck. previous set.

    "Good jade makes a good match, beautiful family members add blessings, and I wish the son a great success."

    She raised her head and bowed again, and Fu Li made a thoughtful gesture.

    Previously, he was still blushing and hesitating. He went to someone's carriage and came back with this hypocritical expression. Li Jingyun half-closed his eyes and looked at it, his eyes were full of anger.

    Huayue knelt just right, and was pulled by someone unexpectedly. This time she is skilled.

    Li Jingyun's reaction was faster than Shen Zhiluo's. As soon as she tried hard, he was holding her down, her wrists were overlapped, and he pinched her with one hand, unable to move.

    "Why, it's fine if he hugs you, but you will be beaten when you hug him?" He deceived himself, reached out and squeezed her chin, "What's the fairness?"

    Hua Yue tried to struggle, but gave up after only one attempt, and let him hold: "Master Shen will also be beaten if you do it, it's fair."

    "Really." Li Jingyun sneered, "Master is very happy to see you, snuggling in someone's arms, not moving."

    At that juncture, what should you do? Shen Zhiluo suddenly pulled her over, and she didn't have time to react. Her nose bumped against his shoulder bone, and tears came out of the pain. When she reacted, Shen Zhiluo had already raised her sleeves to block her.

    Zhou Heshuo had seen her and knew that she was from the General's Mansion. If she still jumped out and showed her face, wouldn't she be a second fool, and even this young master would be implicated.

    In her heart, Hua Yue didn't want to argue with him, she said lifelessly: "Yes, the servant is happy."

    The strength of the grip on her wrist suddenly tightened, and the person in front of her was closer to her, so close that she could see the anger in his eyes.

    Looking at her, Hua Yue found it amusing: "Slave servants are nothing more than pawns in front of the car and playthings in hand for the son. Why should the son be so anxious about these trivial matters."

    "Plaything." Li Jingyun's eyes were cold, "Have you ever seen a toy that was given medicine and fed? A real toy, if it breaks, throw it away, and there is no way to pick it up."

    Huayue thought for a while: "Not necessarily, your treasured saber is broken and you haven't thrown it away, and you still wipe it often."

    "..."

    Getting crazy with anger, Li Jingyun opened his mouth, took the man back and bit her on the side of the neck fiercely, his snow-white fangs pressed against the delicate flesh, and when he bit it, it sank into several dimples.

    Unexpectedly, Hua Yue cried out in pain, "Ah", and wanted to step back, but he was holding her arms around her shoulders and pressing her tightly.

    "You...you let go!" She panicked and struggled with all her might, "If you want to kill or slash, it will take a good time, it will take half an hour to bleed if your neck is broken!"

    Li Jingyun turned a deaf ear, with a pair of dark pupils holding her neck.

    Is this a dog? Hua Yue was crying and grief-stricken, how could a serious master bite someone's neck, and she felt displeased when she bit one place, so she switched to the left and bit again. The warm and moist breath sprayed on the neck, itching and numb.

    She couldn't move, and she couldn't see if her neck was bleeding, and she was so panicked.

    "He was so close to you just now?" Li Jingyun let go, looked down at his masterpiece, and asked casually.

    Hua Yue quickly shook her head: "No."

    "What's that like?" The fingertips brushed the teeth marks, and gently scratched her earlobe, "Tell me, where is the Gu, I will try it."

    Hua Yue thought it was amusing: "Young master, why do you have to care about this? The servants in the slave and maid district may not have the best eyesight. If you say that Lord Shen is good-looking, the son may not necessarily be worse than him. Looking at the whole capital, people who admire the son will say less than a thousand times. "You really don't need to fight, my son."

    It's okay not to say it, but when he said it, he showed his fangs again. Hundreds of people in Jinghua knew that he was good, so why did the dog around him become blind?

    Hua Yue knew at a glance that he was going to bite again, and quickly said: "Young Master, we are going to the hunting ground soon, Miss Han is right in front, you should restrain yourself, don't let people misunderstand."

    "Misunderstanding?" He raised his eyelids.

    "Naturally, I misunderstood that the young master is romantic and affectionate, and he has an affair with the maids around him." Hua Yue frowned, "It's not good for you to spread these rumors before you get married."

    Li Jingyun suddenly realized and nodded: "It makes sense, I can't make people misunderstand."

    Her heart was relieved, and Hua Yue was about to take a breath, but she heard the next sentence: "If you want to dye it, it will be dyed, and it's better to be infatuated."

    Yin Huayue: "..."

    Before he was teasing and teasing, she would blushed and felt uneasy, but now that he said too much, Hua Yue just thought he was joking, and said helplessly: "I also ask the son to let the slaves live."

    "Follow your father to eat and drink spicy food, how come you can't survive?"

    Hua Yue chuckled and asked him with lowered eyes, "Young Master, do you still remember how the injury on the slave's back came from?"

    The presumptuousness on his face subsided a little, Li Jingyun pursed his lips, and was a little irritable: "I was unprepared before, but I won't be able to do it later."

    "Slave would prefer not to go back." She struggled for a while, and finally broke free from his shackles, rubbed her wrists and said, "If the young master speaks, there will naturally be a lot of people willing to accompany you to play, but slave's life is only One, the slaves are very cherished, and I also ask the young master to raise your hand."

    With his hands empty and his arms cold, Li Jingyun slowly brushed his sleeves and wondered, "Why are you acting on the spot?"

    Huayue paused for a while, and then laughed out loud: "It's okay to be flattering, no problem, whatever word your son likes to use."

    She tidied up her skirt and bowed her knees to him: "The slave will prepare other things, and when I get there, I will ask the son to show his face."

    Li Jingyun was silent.

    The teeth marks on her neck were deep and there was no blood, but it wouldn't go away for a while. If you were someone else, she would definitely care about it. Not to mention how shy, it was inevitable that she would blush.

    But Yin Huayue didn't. She took out the small bronze mirror in the box and glanced at it, her expression was very calm, as if she was just bitten by a dog, and she took a white cloth and wrapped it smoothly.

    Li Jingyun couldn't understand, because his words were not clear enough, or his posture was not intimate enough, why did his dog react this way?

    The sky was getting dark, and when the night shrouded the sky, the prince and his party finally arrived at the hunting ground.

    Hua Yue led a glass lamp to lead the way, and Li Jing Yun followed behind, her eyes still full of confusion.

    "Some time ago, Madam sent you a return gift to the Han residence. It is an agate bracelet. If Miss Han mentions it, you may perfunctory, don't say you don't know."

    "The place to eat is upstairs. There are only you and Miss Han upstairs. The slaves and maids avoid them. If the son has any other orders, just open the window and shout."

    Standing on the edge of the stairs, she turned around and tucked the lamp into him, and said earnestly, "Don't leave the table too early."

    The candlelight shone on the colored glaze, and the light was a little dazzling. Li Jingyun hesitantly reached out to take it, but the man turned around and left.

    The pace is brisk, and there is no nostalgia at all.

    Huayue hasn't eaten for a whole day, and finally got a steamed bun in the kitchen, where can take care of anything else? After finishing the task, hid downstairs to eat, holding Bai Shengsheng's dough in both hands, eating it. Do it quickly and carefully.

    Someone sat down beside her and handed her a glass of water.

    "Thank you." Hua Yue took it and asked for a drink, Yu Guang glanced aside.

    It's okay not to look at it. When she saw it, she didn't dare to tilt the glass any more. She stopped embarrassedly and said with a smile, "It's you."

    The little girl who came to open the door for them in the Han residence before, still smiled sweetly, and said softly to her: "Sister, my name is Biezhi."

    Hua Yue smiled faintly: "Did Miss Han have any orders?"

    Biezhi shook his head, sighed and smiled: "This is already the happiest time for Miss. Since you don't want others to disturb you, you and I can hide here and be lazy for a long time."

    Huayue nodded, holding a glass of water, neither drinking nor not drinking.

    "Sister, don't be afraid." Biezhi tilted his head and said, "There is no poison in the water."

    Who knows if it's true or not, Huayue smiled but didn't move.

    Don pursed her lips, put her hands on her knees, and said in a low voice, "Our young lady is very lucky, she was favored by the eldest princess when she was born. The princess's thunderous tactics will make her a vicious name in the end."

    "Sister is the person next to Young Master Jing Yun. It's too late for the young lady to please her, so why would she think of harming her?"

    Hua Yue raised her eyebrows when she heard it, remembering what Han Shuang said last time when she came to the East Courtyard, she suddenly said, "You mean, your lady has never been angry with me?"

    "My elder sister is the favored slave of Young Master Jing Yun, and she will also get along with Young Master day and night in the future. What does she do when she is angry with you? At most, she is not mad at Young Master Jing Yun." Don't sigh, "Miss and Young Master Jing Yun have known each other for many years. The relationship between the two is also very good, but later, the young master misunderstood some things and left the young lady in the cold."

    "If elder sister can help, then in the future, if the young lady will be in the house, she will not treat you lightly."

    Hua Yue was interested, put down the cup and asked her, "What misunderstanding is there between them?"

    Biezhi showed embarrassment, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I don't know exactly how it is, I don't know a maid, but I heard that Young Master Jing Yun ate vinegar for no reason and deliberately left my young lady in the cold. Head down."

    Looking at her with blinking eyes, Biezhi pulled her arm and shook it: "Good sister, you must be willing to help?"

    Hua Yue laughed with her, sweeter than her: "Yes, how can you help me?"

    "This is simple." Biezhi said, "What they lack right now is mutual understanding and closeness. Sister, please tell me about Young Master Jing Yun's preferences and living habits, and I'll try to get the young lady to prescribe the right medicine."

    "Do you like it..." Hua Yue stared at her hand and smiled, "It's nothing special, I like to eat candied fruit occasionally."

    "What about living?" Biezhi leaned over his head, "When does the son usually go out and when does he return to the residence?"

    "This is different every day."

    Biezhi thought about it for a while, then smiled and said, "It's no wonder that on the ninth day of the fourth lunar month, my young lady went to look for it, but the son happened to be not in the mansion."

    April nine? Huayue raised her eyes calmly, just meeting the gaze of other branches. Biezhi's eyes were very light in color, staring at her quietly, with a scrutiny and a little probing in his eyes.

    Thoughts moved slightly, Hua Yue smiled and said: "You remember, the son did not go out that day, nor did he receive any greetings."

    Don't be stunned for a moment, and quickly clapped: "It's because I have a bad memory, maybe it's another day."

    She didn't care about this mistake, she just suddenly reached out and rubbed her stomach: "Hey..."

    "What's wrong?" Biezhi quickly supported her.

    "The steamed buns I just ate seem to be a little rancid." She frowned and grinned, "You guard first, and I'll be back when I go."

    "Okay, sister slow down." Biezhi waved at her.

    Hua Yue got up and walked towards the thatched hut. As soon as she left the sight of the man behind her, her face returned to normal.

    When she saw Han Shuang before, she really believed that this girl liked Li Jingyun, but now that this little girl said a few words, she felt something was wrong.

    Whether it is inquiring about her preferences or living, it is still normal, but what is the meaning of her words?

    On the ninth day of the fourth lunar month, she was taken to the Qifeng Building by the prince, and Li Jingyun should have been there. Although she didn't know what he was doing, her intuition told her that she should not speak out, especially if she didn't have any calluses on her hands. the servant said.

    Looking back at the second floor where the lights were on, Huayue touched her chin.

    The banquet went well that night. Li Jingyun showed no expression on his face when he came out. Huayue glanced at Han Shuang and found that she was not crying. At least the process was not too miserable.

    Li Jingyun looked at her in a low interest, glanced at her, returned the glass lamp to her, and then went back to sleep.

    The next day is the day of "opening the mountain". Generally speaking, the person with the highest status shoots the rabbit in the cage, and then everyone can go hunting, but this year is different.

    The eldest princess and His Royal Highness went to the hunting ground together. In terms of superiority and inferiority, it is natural that the prince is higher than the prince, but in terms of seniority, the eldest princess should be the first. stand up.

    In the end, the eldest princess smiled and said: "I heard that the young master of the Li family's mansion is excellent at arrows, and he can pierce through Yang with a hundred paces. It's better to let him go."

    This proposal is a bit ridiculous, but what is rare is that Zhou Heshuo also nodded: "Jing Yun, don't you thank the eldest princess for your appreciation?"

    Li Jingyun came out, and just as she was about to bow, the eldest princess covered her lips and smiled: "You are Shuang'er's future husband-in-law, a family, what kind of salute, please don't."

    Zhou Heshuo was disdainful: "When did the Li House and the Han House decide to get married, why didn't Ben Gong hear about it?"

    "The emperor's brother is not well-informed, and the daughter's family knows about this marriage." The eldest princess touched the armor on her tail finger and raised her chin, "Shuang'er is knowledgeable and knowledgeable, and Li family's son is both civil and military. There is no better marriage than this, Mrs. Li also nodded."

    "But how did Ben Gong hear that Jing Yun is the only one who loves only one person recently, and all the good things in the house are piled up in that person's room." Zhou Heshuo shook his head, "The marriage matters, I still want your love and I wish it well. What's so sweet about melons?"

    Hua Yue stood behind Li Jing Yun, and the more she listened, the colder her sweat became.

    Why are the two officials still quarreling? No matter what the quarrel, the direction is getting more and more crooked, why doesn't she know that the son-in-law has a favorite person in the mansion?

    "His Royal Highness." Shen Zhiluo said suddenly, "The auspicious time will be over."

    Zhou Heshuo returned to his senses, and waved his sleeves: "Jing Yun, let's go."

    "Yes."

    The long arrow with the feathers hit the white rabbit in the cage quickly and accurately. As soon as the fence was opened, the noble children shouted and drove their horses to the mountain.

    Huayue looked at it with a smile, and handed the back basket and banyan net to Badou, so that he could follow to pick up the prey shot by the young master.

    However, Li Jingyun retracted the bow and said directly, "You go with me."

    Hua Yue was stunned for a moment, looked left and right, and said, not quite sure, "Young Master, are you going to be a servant?"

    "Um."

    "Slaves and maids are female." She frowned and gestured, "It may not have the strength of Badou."

    "Master wants you to go." Li Jingyun looked at her condescendingly, "Why, not willing?"

    Hua Yue shook her head, turned Rong Wang behind her back, and smiled at him. But just as he was about to go with him, he felt a chill on the back of his head for no reason.

    She looked behind her subconsciously, and saw the dragon flag fiercely on the hunting ground, the eldest princess was sitting in the dragon flag playing with her fingers, and her eyes were fixed on her.

    "..." With a shudder in her heart, Hua Yue said stiffly, "If the servant says she is not happy, can she not go now?"

    Following her line of sight, Li Jingyun saw Shen Zhiluo standing by the side of the court. The man was holding the Qiankun disk and looking at Yin Huayue's direction with deep eyes, as if he was worried, but he still wanted to speak.

    "Want to stay for a private meeting?" With cold eyes, Li Jingyun tidied up the net on her shoulders and whispered close to her, "Dreaming."
