Placid Chang'an

Chapter 45 Su Qin

I thought it would take some time to fall asleep after going through so much, but he was called to drink tea by Duke Zhou almost the moment Li Shi closed the door.

Sleeping soundly and soundly, the taste of this dragon bed is not bad.

When he woke up, Li Shishang hadn't come back yet, and the room was lingering with strands of sandalwood.No wonder he slept so deeply, and he didn't know what Li Shi's tranquilizing incense came from. Every time he smelled it, he felt as if he had been drugged, and he would never wake up until the incense burned out.

After waking up, he didn't want to move, just stared at Li Shi's simple and elegant bed curtain in a daze, and his thoughts slowly drifted to that face.Those eyes are so deep, they can be filled with stars in Mobei, and they can also be filled with disputes in the court, so what about when you look at him?How much truth, how much hypocrisy?

In the few confrontations between you and me, that person always came quickly and cleaned up, unlike him, who was sloppy and indecisive, and in the end he got himself into it.

That's right, Li Shi is the king who gallops freely in the arena, but he is the little beast who fell into the tiger's mouth for the first time. He has seen those eyes thousands of times, but he can't see a single trace of them.

Knowing that thinking about it would inevitably lead him into a dead circle, Su Cen simply turned his attention away, sat up from the bed, and looked around.

Li Shi's bedroom has inherited his usual style. At first glance, he only thinks it is upright and stable, but the details are full of grandeur. Unlike other bedrooms separated by various screen decorations, Li Shi's room is connected with every word. Here you can see the study on the other side at a glance.

Suddenly remembering something, Su Cen turned over and went to the bookshelf with bare feet, hesitated for a while when he approached, and was relieved when he saw that there were no memorials related to state affairs on the table, so he picked up an idle book , turned up.

After a while, he closed the book and smiled with satisfaction. The word on the umbrella was indeed written by him.

Although the characters in the book are not cursive, but are painted with silver hooks, you can still see the clues in the way you use the brush.The main stroke is heavy, while the other strokes are light, especially the handwriting is slender and thin, bent like a bent iron.It is conceivable how difficult it is to acquire this type of font. There are always many scholars and only a few. He also practiced, but his wrist was not strong enough, so he gave up later.

Now that I had a whim, looking at the ready-made pens, inks, papers and inkstones on Li Shi's desk, spreading the paper and grinding them, I became interested in trying again.

Su Cen frowned as soon as he wrote a line. He had form but no soul, like a person who has lost his muscles and bones, but has no essence, so he had to stop writing to read Li Shi's words.

After flipping through it for a while, I became fascinated. There are few annotations in Li Shi’s book, and there are only one or two lines of words, but the words are pearls of praise, sometimes they are criticisms. Next to "Wei Ai Ye" there is even a word - fart!

Su Cen laughed outright.

Looking at it, he forgot the time, until Su Cen came back to his senses when he heard a soft knock on the door, and it was already too late when he wanted to throw down the book and run back.

Li Shizheng was standing in front of the room looking at him with a half-smile, saw him look up, and beckoned, "Come here."

Just as Su Cen took a step, he froze suddenly. He didn't wear shoes.

Face is a small matter, but injustice is a major matter. He is disheveled in other people's palaces, what will Li Shi think?Although it's not that they have met each other sincerely, but it was forced by the situation, and it's not the same thing as him undressing himself.

Seeing him not moving, Li Shi frowned slightly, and called again: "Come here."

"I..." Su Cen was also in a dilemma, and picked up a book, "I haven't finished this book yet...can you wait until I finish it?"

"Come here." Without anger and prestige, there is no doubt about it.

Su Cen covered his face with a book, so he could only come out from under the desk. He was born fair and clean, and his feet, which have not seen the sun all year round, were even more emerald white as jade.Thumb raised his head on the slightly cool floor tiles, and quickly curled up again, trying to hide behind the hem of his clothes.

There was no movement from Li Shi's side for a long time, Su Cen secretly glanced at the back of the book, and in the next moment, dropped the book and ran away.

The desire in those eyes was undisguised, trying to swallow his cramp.

Li Shi said that the little old man Wang Yan wanted to oppose his farming system, and said that Lang Jie, a toad, wanted to eat swan meat, and wanted to go to Hangzhou to get a share of the pie.

While talking about court affairs seriously, he spared no effort at the same time.

Wang Yan and Lang Jie are still little emperors, what are they doing?It's not that he doesn't allow soldiers to be stationed, eat meat, and has no opinions... What's the point of coming back to torment him after getting angry outside? !

Su Cen is powerless to look at the sky, what is meant by a "misstep" is eternal hatred, the wisdom of the ancestors is indeed well-deserved.

After he managed to catch his breath, just as he got out of bed to drink some water to suppress his shock, a hand came straight over and grabbed his ankle that was about to fall to the ground, before he could utter an exclamation, he was dragged back again.

From afternoon to night, Mr. Su couldn't get out of bed anymore.The dinner was brought in by Qi Lin, and then Li Shi fed him mouthful by mouthful.

From this point of view, he also has quite a bit of skill that the king has never been in court since then.

At night, the lamp was turned on, and after another shower, Su Cen leaned against Li Shi's chest and took a small breath, looking up at Li Shi's silhouette under the shadow of the lamp, he thought to himself that this man was really good-looking, with straight eyebrows and deep contours, no wonder When you laugh, don't get close to strangers, once you laugh, it's like intoxicating sake, drowning people in it.

Li Shi grabbed the restless hand and looked at it under the candlelight. There was a shallow scar that was different from the palm lines, with rough edges and slightly raised upwards.

It is the scar left at the Huxin Pavilion that day.

"Does it hurt?" Li Shi asked.

Su Cen froze for a moment, figured out what Li Shi was asking, raised his head and smiled at him: "It doesn't hurt."

"What about at the beginning?"

Su Cen pretended to frowned and thought for a while, "It's okay, I'll just treat it as if I was bitten by a dog."

Li Shi smiled, his eyes were so deep that he couldn't see the bottom, "Who are you cursing?"

Then he frowned again: "The injury in the palm should be extremely difficult to heal."

Su Cen lowered her eyes lightly, "The palm is also the heart, and the wounds in the heart are extremely difficult to heal."

It would be hypocritical to continue, Su Cen clicked to stop, straightened up and looked at Li Shi, and changed the topic, "Then how should Xiao Yuanchen be sentenced?"

"Qi Lin told you everything?" Li Shi withdrew his hand and gently twisted Mo Yu's fingers, "You are a lawsuit against Dali Temple, how should I teach you?"

"If the verdict is wrong, the lord will drive me to the street in the middle of the night, where can I go to reason?" Originally, the words were serious, but the tone changed as soon as the words came out, no matter how you listened, you felt wronged.

Li Shi laughed, with a deep and mellow voice, and said with a smile: "Zixu is jealous."

"I don't have one," Su Cen retorted immediately, "Prince Ning's harem is three thousand, what kind of vinegar should I eat...Xingqing Palace is so big, the prince can naturally keep whoever he wants..."

It gets darker and darker...

Su Dacai suddenly realized that his speculative talents were useless, and he couldn't get around it after arguing and arguing, so he simply stopped talking, and just said every word: "I'm not jealous!"

Li Shi looked at him silently, with an obvious smile in his eyes.

Su Cen had no choice but to admit that he was wronged, so he just ate it, anyway, the old fox had already seen through him.Taking over the previous topic, he sighed and said, "You don't know, that child told me when he was alive that he wanted to be like me in the future... He was the first person who said he wanted to be like me in the future, the first A person who recognizes what I do... No matter what you say or how you object, I always believe that I am doing the right thing... But sometimes it is really tiring to walk alone, and finally someone thinks that I am doing the right thing Yes, now, that person is gone..."

Su Cen sniffed, looked up at Li Shi with clear eyes, "What if I want him to die?"

Li Shi also looked at him, neither saying yes nor no, Su Cen knew that he was going against the dragon scale again.

He knew that what he said was out of anger, he would still settle the account of one person's life for the lives of thousands of others, but just as he was about to speak, Li Shi said: "Your case is up to you."

Su Cen raised his head abruptly, and murmured in disbelief, "What about the control of the Beiliang Army?"

"call back."

Obviously this is also a joke, but Su Cen is very useful. It turns out that being a confidante who deceives the master is such a taste, so it seems that Su Daji is not bad.

As if knowing what he was thinking, Li Shi pulled him into his arms and said with a smile, "It's not Su Daji, it's Su Qin."

He is a talented person with outstanding intelligence and enlightenment.

Su Cen also laughed, "If you're sure I won't kill him, it's just bullying me."

Li Shi smiled, noncommittal to his words, inserted his slender fingers into his hair, and gently rubbed the top of his head.
