Chapter 6: Melancholy


A few days later, I got up and went to pay my respects to E Niang, the Concubine De.

As soon as I entered the palace, before I had time to enter the palace of Concubine De, I met the Crown Prince at the door of Concubine De's bedroom.

I hurriedly saluted: "See you, Prince."

"You don't have to be polite, why don't you come to say hello to Concubine De?"

the prince said very kindly.

"Well, my sister is sick, so I'm here to say hello today."

I answered very politely.

"Shu Qiao, do you think kissing someone is a good thing?"

the prince said with a smile.

Could it be that he wanted to resume his engagement with Xueyi?

I was stunned for a moment, then immediately recovered: "Yeah."

I didn't know how to answer, so I could only say it stupidly.

"Then I'll leave first.

You can go in."

The prince walked as calmly as ever.

I also gave him a gift, but I still felt uneasy in my heart.

"Sister Wang, this is for you."

I was sitting in the yard in a daze when Xiaohai handed over a comb.

It's a sandalwood comb, and it smells quite pleasant.

I took a look: "Is Master Jiu not here?"

"Brother Ninth has something to do."

Xiao Hai: "Sister, I'm going to take a bath."

"Go ahead."

I smiled slightly.

After Xiaohai left, I immediately walked up to Xinghai and said, "Xinghai, what did Master Jiu take Xiaohai to do?"

"The young master has given orders, but I can't say anything."

Xinghai smiled playfully.

It seemed that he wouldn't say anything without making a big move.

"Well, it seems that someone wants to stay in the accounting room to settle accounts."

I said in a regretful tone on purpose.

"Archery."

Luo Xinghai blurted out immediately.

"Archery" is such a fun thing, of course I want to join in the fun.

Next time, I will go too.

It seemed that I was smiling particularly sinisterly at this moment, because Luo Xinghai was already looking at me to see if I was thinking of some damaging move.

Master Jiu doesn't have time to pick up Xiaohai today, so that's just the right time, so I'll take Xiaohai and Luo Xinghai there in person.

From a distance, I saw Master Jiu already trying to shoot an arrow.

"Brother Ninth."

Xiaohai hurriedly ran over.

Master Jiu turned around and looked at me with sudden surprise.

But then he became even happier.

He also came over and said, "Why did you tell her our secret?"

"It's not me."

Xiao Hai was also very innocent.

"How could you not call me for such a fun thing?"

I walked over swaggeringly.

"You have become a Fujin, and you can still come out to play."

Although Master Jiu said this, he was still very happy that I could come over.

"Does interest matter in terms of status?"

I seemed to be looking at the inexperienced Master Jiu.

Master Jiu felt that he was being despised, so he didn't say much and immediately took us to shoot arrows.

From the beginning, Xiaohai and I were holding arrows, but they were really heavy.

Oh no, the tension was so heavy.

I pulled hard.

I only heard an order: "Let go."

"咻" "咻" Two arrows were shot out immediately.

When I was about to be happy, I realized that my arrow was only shot a few meters ahead.

"Ha ha" "Ha ha" I saw that several of them were laughing at me, but I was still unconvinced and picked up another arrow from the ground.

"call out."

Just when I was about to be happy again, the arrow actually hung directly on the arrow.

"Brother Ninth, why don't you teach my sister."

Xiaohai couldn't stand it anymore, so he had to help me invite a master.

"For your sake, let me help."

Jiu Ye, who had already run to my side and saw that I was making a fool of myself, responded to Xiao Hai deliberately in front of me.

I rolled my eyes at him, Xinghai handed over an arrow, and Master Jiu put the arrow on my bow.

"The distance between the two feet is three feet long, the center of gravity is back, and pull hard."

Master Jiu kicked my feet and continued to point fingers at me.

Although I was itching with hatred in my heart, what he said was what he should say, but it was wrong to use his hands or feet.

I listened to him, got into position, and started cumming.

However, it didn’t go in.

I was happy at this moment.

I immediately turned my head and said, "Look, what you taught me may not be useful."

Seeing me being so "unreasonable", Master Jiu nodded, picked an arrow with his foot, and held it in his hand.

Wow, are you showing off some stunts?

Master Jiu immediately grabbed my hand from behind, put the arrow on the bowstring, and made another "whoosh" sound.

"That's amazing.

Ninth Brother."

Xiao Hai applauded from the side, and Luo Xinghai also followed suit.

Originally, I admired Master Jiu, but when I saw his sullen expression, I really didn't want to pay attention to him.

The fourth master happened to accompany the prince to the royal shooting range here.

Seeing this scene, he felt a little embarrassed about his face.

The prince didn't want to criticize Shu Qiao at this time.

After all, he still wanted to ask the fourth master for help: "I didn't expect that Shu Qiao also accepted the ninth brother as his teacher.

The fourth brother can also teach her when he returns."

"The prince is joking."

The fourth master said with a smile.

The prince and fourth master left together, and we did not notice their arrival.

In the evening, I had prepared foot-washing water for Fourth Master, but Fourth Master still did not come back.

I stood at the door and looked around for a while, but there was still no one around: Is Fourth Master busy today?

I walked back, sat by the bed and waited, and before I knew it, I fell asleep.

The sky slowly became brighter, and I suddenly woke up.

The sunlight outside was a bit dazzling.

I suddenly felt a little disappointed, so I opened the window and took a look.

"Hmm."

As soon as I smelled the sunshine, I suddenly became in a good mood.

"Sister, why are you here?"

Xiaohai was eating and was a little surprised when he saw me coming.

"Why, you're not happy that I'm coming to dinner with you."

I walked over and sat down.

"No way, in the past two months since I came here, my sister has hardly had breakfast with me, and she hasn't even been with me for dinner."

Xiao Hai said a little unhappy.

"From then on, I will eat with you every time."

I saw that the maids had put away the dishes and chopsticks, so I started to eat.

"Of course that's fine, but sister, if you and Fourth Master have dinner in the future, I won't go there."

Xiao Hai said this, and I was a little surprised: "Why?"

"Fourth Master looks a little cold, and we have only met a few times these days, so we have nothing to say."

Xiao Hai said so directly.

I was also a little disappointed: no wonder Xiaohai didn't like it.

The fourth master had never taken Xiaohai out to play.

"By the way, why hasn't Mr.

Jiu come to pick you up these days?"

I brought him some food.

"Brother Ninth has been busy recently and said he would pick me up to go horse riding in a few days."

Xiaohai said happily.

I am also happy to "horse a horse".

"My sister also wants to go" Xiaohai.

"Yeah."

I nodded happily.

"Okay, then I'll take you there another day."

When Xiaohai said this, I felt like he was taking me flying.

I glanced at him, but I didn't really want to vent my anger on him, so I still gave him some food.

After dinner, I had nothing to do, so I came to the accounting room to kill some time.

"Qiao Fujin, why did you come to see me?"

Luo Xinghai walked in.

"Xinghai, please teach me abacus."

I asked, shaking the abacus.

"Qiao Fujin, you should talk to Mr.

Accountant about this."

I know Xinghai hates this kind of thing.

"Don't you want to teach me?"

I clenched my fists and pretended to hit him.

"I teach, I teach."

Luo Xinghai came over immediately.

After Luo Xinghai took the abacus, he returned it to zero.

"Xinghai, what is Fourth Master doing recently?"

I asked somewhat inquiringly.

"Fourth Master, I have been discussing political affairs with the emperor recently.

No, yesterday I took Si Fujin to have a casual meal with some ministers."

After Xinghai finished speaking, he saw that I was not interested in learning, so he asked: "Qiao Fujin , are you still learning?”

"Teach them."

I don't want to think about these things.

These must be matters in their political circles, so I won't get involved blindly.

"drive."

"drive" After Master Jiu came back, a few of us started riding horses again.

At this moment, my horse also started running.

"Sister, I'm leaving first."

Xiaohai ran over immediately.

"Xinghai, go over and look after the young master."

I said worriedly.

"I know."

Xinghai immediately followed Xiaohai.

Now, it's just the two of us left.

"Do you want to learn the trick of horse racing all at once?"

Master Jiu said with confidence.

"You can do this too."

I looked at it in surprise.

Master Jiu just smiled and got off the horse.

Just when I questioned what he was doing standing under my horse, Master Jiu smiled, grabbed my horse rope, climbed on my horse, and sat on me. behind.

"You" I just scolded him for getting on my carriage again.

"Drive!"

I heard a roar, and the horse started running so fast that I had no time to speak.

Somehow, the horse overtook Xiaohai and the others who were waiting for us in front of us, chatting.

Our horses roared past, and both Xinghai and Xiaohai were in a daze.

Finally stopped, I staggered off the horse, could not walk steadily, I was really a little dizzy.

"Take a rest, I will teach you later."

Master Jiu looked very leisurely.

But I was already petrified.

When I looked at Xiaohai and Xinghai, they both turned their heads.

I immediately found an opportunity and sneaked away.

Master Jiu carried a basket of pastries, looked at Xiao Hai and said, "Where is your sister?"

"I'm afraid that Brother Nine has gone back secretly."

Xiaohai looked gloating.

Master Jiu felt a little disappointed and handed the basket over: "Let's eat something first."

In the fourth master's house, the fourth master who should come to my place for dinner is still staying in Si Fujin's room.

Although the fourth master is with him, Si Fujin naturally wants it, but Si Fujin understands that the fourth master is just following him.

I was angry.

If I wanted to retain the fourth master's reliance on me, I must understand the overall situation and give up the small benefits in front of me.

"Fourth Master, it stands to reason that you should go to Sister Shu Qiao's place.

Why don't you go there?"

Si Fujin said while sitting on the stool.

"Why don't you want me to stay?"

Fourth Master said in a calm tone.

"No."

Si Fujin didn't want to make the Fourth Master unhappy, so he said, "I'll tell my servants to prepare."

"Yeah."

Fourth Master.

I sat in the yard and waited, but the fourth master still didn’t come back, so I went out to look for him.

When I saw a little Si, I quickly asked: "Hey, is the fourth master not here today?"

"Fourth Master has already slept at Si Fujin's place."

Xiao Si.

"Oh."

I felt a little disappointed.

Since he was sleeping there, I went to sleep by myself.

Why doesn't Fourth Master come over?

Is there any necessary reason?

Then someone should be sent over to explain it.

I lay on the bed tossing and turning, not understanding what was going on.

When I was having breakfast the next day, I saw that Fourth Master and Fourth Fujin had already sat down, so I walked over and saluted: "Fourth Master, Fujin."

"Yeah."

Si Fujin said politely, but the fourth master didn't react at all.

I walked over and the maid served me a bowl of bird's nest porridge.

"We will go to see Thirteenth Brother together in half a month.

I heard that his child is about to be born."

Fourth Master said calmly.

"Fourth Master, why don't you take me with you?

It just so happens that I haven't seen them for a long time."

I didn't know what Fourth Master's attitude was towards me, so I had to plead first.

"You are not in good health, please stay at home."

After the fourth master finished speaking, he slowly put down the bowls and chopsticks.

Am I not in good health?

What does this mean?

I didn't say much, I just responded politely: "Yes."

Si Fujin looked at the scene between the two of us, but didn't say much.

At night, I read a book on the bedside, because my fourth master had not been here for some days.

I suddenly felt that living like this was really depressing.

Why should I apologize every time, but this time, I didn't.

Because I don't know what the reason for this is.

Fourth Master has not actually been to any of Fujin's rooms these days.

He only occasionally stands outside my door, looking at the lights in my room and thinking about what I am doing.

However, he refused to come in and explain the matter clearly.

I blew out the light and didn't want to continue reading or thinking anymore, because when I fell asleep, I didn't have so many worries.

There is less interaction with the fourth master, but there seems to be a lot more interaction with the ninth master.

"Brother Jiu, you are not taking me to play, you are clearly taking my sister out to play."

Xiaohai sat on the grass, watching me fly the kite, and guessing what Master Jiu was thinking.

"By the way, why has your sister been unhappy recently?"

Master Jiu asked Xiao Hai.

"It's not the Fourth Master yet.

He doesn't seem to pay much attention to my sister recently."

Xiao Hai complained angrily.

"Did something happen between them?"

Master Jiu said with a worried look.

"I don't know."

Xiaohai said.

Suddenly he said: "It would be great if you were my brother-in-law.

As a brother, I will also teach you how to coax my sister."

"Haha" Although Master Jiu smiled happily, he knew that this was impossible, and he couldn't say this nonsense, so he still said seriously: "Xiao Hai, you can't say this to other people in the future, otherwise , your sister is in trouble."

"I understand.

I said it because you were kind to my sister."

Xiao Hai said with an upright face.

And I was very happy flying a kite alone.

Seeing them talking for so long, I was a little tired, so I shouted: "One of you come over and take over from me."

"I'm here."

Xiaohai ran over immediately.

We played kites all day, and our mood was much better, but I didn't notice that behind Master Jiu's smile, he always glanced at me from time to time, with a look of worry on his face:
