There is always a rival who wants to attack me

"Miss, if this goes on like this, we won't be able to explain to the Seventh Prince." The old shopkeeper handed the ledger to Su Yizhen, the number on it was so low that it made one's heart chill.

"Do your job well, don't worry about other things, I have my own way!" Su Yijin repelled the old shopkeeper, totally not aware of the sarcasm in his eyes.

------------------

In the study room of King Su's Mansion, the seventh prince received a report from the people around him, snorted coldly and ordered: "Get our people out, don't worry about this kind of thing!"

The servant backed away.The Seventh Prince picked up the paintbrush that was left aside and continued to finish the painting that had just been interrupted.

On the snow-white plain brocade, a young man with a beautiful appearance and an orchid and jade tree is outlined in detail.He stood under the peach tree, raised his head slightly, looked at the colorful fallen flowers, and showed a satisfied smile.

"Jing Xing..." The Seventh Prince stroked the face of the person in the painting, and murmured foolishly: "The person you and I don't like will soon be completely destroyed!"

That's right, the "Wenhui Teahouse" on Dongshun Avenue is the property of the Seventh Prince.

Su Yijin's Baijialou gave him an idea, instead of trying to win him over, it is better to have a subtle influence.

"Wenhui Teahouse" has only been open for a little over a month, but because of its strong and clean academic atmosphere, many children of famous Xungui families often come to sit there.Now there is a hidden tendency to become the weathervane leading the speeches and thoughts of the students in Beijing.At the moment, the training ground in the side courtyard is almost built, just waiting for the firearms to be formed.

Right now, Su Yijin is completely useless, the next step is to find a way to get rid of the roots.

Thinking about it, the Seventh Prince rolled out another piece of rice paper, dipped it in thick ink, and wrote a big word "kill" on it.

-----------------------------

In the blink of an eye, it was the Mid-Autumn Festival, and Su Yijin stood alone in front of the table in a daze.Since the "Baijialou" lost power, her position in the heart of the Seventh Prince has also plummeted.More than two months have passed since the banquet at the General's Mansion, but the Seventh Prince never came to see him once.

Su Yijin whispered a poem about Huai Qiu Bei Yue, looking out the window and sighing.

Who would have thought that there would be a day when the Baijialou, which was once a constant stream of visitors and visitors, would be so deserted that even the sound of a soft pen brushing across the paper could be clearly heard.

A woman in pink gauze came out from behind, and hugged Su Yizhen's shoulder affectionately.

"Yijin, don't worry, we will do our best." The woman's voice was like broken Kunshan jade, and hibiscus weeping dew, just a few words can make people's bones crumble.

"Thank you, Ran Die. I know you don't like being so prominent in front of people, but I still force you to help me." Su Yizhen took her hand, her brows were full of sorrow, but she felt very sad in her heart. calm.

In her opinion, Xia Randie is just a singer, and it doesn't matter where she sings.What's more, she was kind to her before, and now she is useful, so naturally she doesn't have to worry about it.

"It doesn't matter, I should do anything for you." Xia Randie shook her head, reached out to help Su Yijin brush the hair that had fallen from her forehead, and comforted her, "Everything will be fine."

"Yeah." Su Yijin nodded along, with a confident gleam in her eyes.

By the time of the Mid-Autumn Festival, she will be a blockbuster and turn around completely.It is best to let those old scholars who are trying to gain fame know what it means to turn one's hands into clouds and turn one's hands into rain.

The era when men were respected has passed, now is her stage for Su Yijin!

And Xia Randie beside her also looked at her with a look of admiration at the right time, but deep in her pupils, there was a flash of strong hatred.

---------------------------

On the night of Mid-Autumn Festival, the moonlight is beautiful, and Yin Han is silent.

The roof of the "Baijia Building" that had been silent for a long time suddenly made a rumbling sound.The common people in Shangjing who were out to enjoy the moon looked up in that direction in unison.

I saw that the top floor of the "Baijia Building" had changed at some point. The surrounding walls had all been demolished, leaving only eight load-bearing pillars to support it.In the four corners of the building, there are four big drums, and four things such as piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are printed on the drum surface.

Four bronze figures with their arms raised are standing on the ground, holding a glazed disc about half a meter in diameter. Under the moonlight, it looks even more mysterious and attractive.

Such a wonderful sight attracted everyone to stop, wanting to know what was going to happen.

"Master, what do you think Miss Biao is going to do?" In the private room of Fuyun Restaurant opposite, Hua Song asked while pouring wine for Li Xi.

"Of course it's something that can help her recover."

"Then do we want to stop it? If we really let her succeed, then what we did before..." Hua Song's tone was very anxious.

"No need," Li Xi calmed down, "There are people who are more anxious than me."

Before Li Xi finished speaking, there was the sound of a zither coming from the opposite building.He looked intently, and saw four beautiful women falling from the sky and slowly landing on the drum.

The music sounded and the dance began.

These four women are all wearing translucent gauze clothes, with silver bells hanging from their limbs.Accompanied by dancing steps and deep drums, the whole dance is extraordinarily full of rhythm and rhythm.

And their clothes are the most fascinating.A tightly stretched apron on the upper body reveals her shiny shoulders and thin white waist.But the lower body is loose bloomers, which are loosely stuck between the hip bones, and the translucent tulle texture also makes their slender legs faintly visible.

Such a charming posture, such a sensual and seductive dance, plunged the entire upper capital into a feast of sensuality and desire.

Li Xi narrowed his eyes, thinking secretly.It seems that Su Yijin has racked her brains in order to recover, but unfortunately, her thinking is still too simple.

It's big week here.

Respect, reason, humility, and temperance are the codes that a gentleman should follow.As for women, they have extremely strict requirements on virtue.

Ever since the dinner at the General's Mansion, Su Yijin has been labeled arrogant, conceited, and detrimental to women's morals.No matter how beautifully she rehearses the dance, it can't save her dissolute and unfaithful impression in the hearts of everyone, let alone Baijialou, which is also notorious.

The intense music gradually faded away, and a woman in red appeared out of nowhere on the jade plate in the middle holding a pipa.Her demeanor is cold, unattainable like Fairy Lingbo, but she is mixed in this kind of obscene place, the corners of her eyes and brows are all dyed with charm, which makes people fascinated.

The woman lowered her head halfway, plucked the pipa in her arms, and sang a sad song "Ask the Moon for Wine" in a soft and charming voice.The four dancers on the drum also stopped dancing at the same time, and changed to the flying dance in response to the singing.

Thin white gauze curtains were scattered from the roof, slowly covering Miaoman's figure on the top floor.As the white gauze unfolded, stunning poems were embroidered on it and presented to everyone.

At this moment, the lights in the building were brightly lit, illuminating the top floor like daytime, and the graceful figure of the dancer and singer was reflected on the white gauze curtain, making those verses more charming and affectionate.

Su Yijin's novel and delicate method made everyone dumbfounded, and they subconsciously walked into the building to take a closer look.For a while, Baijialou returned to its former heyday.

Seeing the obsessed and frantic expressions on the faces of everyone in the building, Su Yijin smiled triumphantly.And when she saw the Seventh Prince, she felt even more shy.

"Your Highness." She took the initiative to greet him, and tenderly led the Seventh Prince to the private room on the third floor.

The Seventh Prince followed Su Yijin in a daze, his mind went blank.I just feel that the smell on her body today is very charming and seductive, which makes him burn with desire.

But within the time of a cup of tea, the woman's soft moans and the man's growl full of desire can be vaguely heard in the room.

"Master, Xia Randie reported that everything has been done."

"En." Li Xi nodded, looked at the woman who was still standing on the jade plate opposite and sang softly, and sighed: "It's also a hard life, if that man is still waiting for her, I will ask your brother to redeem her." Bar!"

"Yes." Hua Song nodded, then turned and left.

Xia Randie was just an ordinary singer in Chunxi Building.According to the rules in the building, if you sing for ten years, you can be redeemed by your family.At that time, Xia Randie had already made a mutual promise with the young servant who had been with her for many years, and even prepared the money for redemption. When the day came, she would buy back freedom for herself and her lover.In the end, she was bumped into by Su Yijin the day before she left the building, insisting that she had the potential to become famous all over the world.And used a spring banquet to push her in front of the world, became famous in one fell swoop, and became the number one singer in Shangjing.

Seeing this, the madam of Chunxi Building used despicable means to force her to stay in the building, and even the money to redeem her body was hundreds of times higher than before.Xia Randie had no choice but to redeem her lover first, while she stayed alone in the building to survive.But Su Yijin still presumptuously thinks that she changed Xia Randie's fate, and always considers herself a benefactor in front of her.Xia Randie knew that she was the cousin of the Duke of Qi, so she didn't dare to resist.It wasn't until Li Xi sent someone to find her that he knelt down and confessed that he hated her to the bone.

Thinking of Xia Randie, Li Xi couldn't help feeling a little bit of sympathy for this poor woman. After drinking the last glass of wine, he got up and left the private room.

Finally, you can close the net!

---------------------

Not long after Li Xi left, Duke Ning led the prince in.Seeing the leftovers of the jug on the table in front of the window, his complexion also turned dark, and he quickly called the shopkeeper to inquire.

"How did you arrange this? Since it was decided to keep it, why did you let other guests in? If you offended His Royal Highness, would you have ten heads to pay for it? You dog slave!"

"This..." The shopkeeper hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed to plead guilty, and at the same time explained in a low voice: "There are a lot of people today, and the Baijialou opposite has been singing some obscene songs, which made the waiters in the shop chaotic. The slave is guilty, and I ask the masters to punish him."

"Forget it, let's just stay here. It's good for someone to clean it up. It's just a small place to sit and relax. It doesn't take so much trouble." The prince interrupted Ning Guogong who wanted to punish the shopkeeper, and then sat on the wicker chair beside him. superior.

"Yes." Ning Guogong agreed, and asked the shopkeeper to clean up the table quickly.The prince's attendants also stepped forward to help.In less than a cup of tea, the private room was tidied up and the food and wine were served.

Ning Guogong was also relieved to see that the prince was in a good mood.Calling the shopkeeper outside, he asked carefully: "What's going on?"

The old shopkeeper was also very helpless, and pointed to the name of the private room and replied: "The servant is not very clear about the return. This is the Mujing Pavilion, not the Linyuan Pavilion where His Royal Highness often sits. Perhaps it is because the two private rooms are too far apart. It's close, so don't pay attention to the wrong way."

"..." Ning Guogong glanced at the forehead flat above his head, and waved his hand wearily to tell the shopkeeper to go down.He thought to himself, it must be Su Yijin's bad luck, the well-run teahouse is like Qinlou Chuguan, even he himself is confused, and he didn't know that he took someone to the wrong place.

At this time, an attendant came over and said that the wine set used by Prince Gangqi was missing a cup.

Ning Guogong scolded irritably: "The prince of Qi County is young, he moves irritably, and it is unknown if he accidentally smashed it. There is nothing to make a fuss about this kind of thing. Get down quickly and serve the master inside."

And the servant standing beside the prince in the private room was sweating profusely on his forehead.He stared at the cup in the prince's hand, and wanted to say something, but he didn't dare to speak.

Aware of his unnaturalness, the prince raised his head and glanced at him with a half-smile.

The strong coercion made the attendants kneel on the ground unconsciously, not even daring to breathe, until the prince ordered, "Go down and don't need to be waited on." Then he quickly kowtowed and retreated.As for what I wanted to say just now, I forgot all of it.

Hearing the singing from the Baijia building opposite, the prince narrowed his eyes with great interest.He finds Li Xi's endless tricks very interesting, and unknowingly developed a different interest in him.

The slender fingers brushed against the rim of the white jade cup, as gently as touching a lover's dangerous and ambiguous movements.The prince whispered to the hidden guards around him: "After tonight, Xia Randie will be disposed of."

"Yes." The dark guard showed up and took orders to leave.

Seeing the dark guard leave, the prince fell into deep thought again.

Although Li Xi's methods are good, his character is not cruel enough.

A bitch is ruthless, an actor is ruthless.Su Yijin's character is worrying, and Xia Randie is not a good person either.However, he made up a few sentences about his tragic life experience, which aroused Li Xi's sympathy for her.Didn't he know that the so-called young servant whom he had promised with each other died in a ruined temple in the suburbs of Beijing as early as the day after he was redeemed by her.As for Xia Randie hating Su Yijin, it was only because Su Yijin broke her dream of being a good man.

The prince thought about it, and sighed silently.The child is so easily deceived by a woman, I really don't let myself worry.Thinking of the previous letter written by King Qijun to ask his father for a favor, to bestow a marriage certificate for Li Xi, his heart felt even more sour.

With a cold snort, the prince's expression became a little gloomy and cold. After he decided to return to the palace, he immediately thought of a way to buckle the discount.For such an important position as the First Concubine of the Prince's Palace of Qi County, it is always necessary to carefully consider and slowly find a good one.

----------------

On the second day, when the Seventh Prince woke up, he found that his stomach was swollen and his waist and legs were weak.Looking at Su Yijin who was sleeping beside him, he instantly understood what happened last night.

The chaotic memory and physical discomfort made him understand that he probably fell into Su Yizhen's scheme.He stretched out his hand angrily, wishing he could directly grab Su Yijin's neck and kill her under his palm.However, thinking of the firearm that has not yet been successfully manufactured, he still swallowed this breath, pretending to be gentle and careless, and pretended to be a snake with Su Yijin.

At the same time, the romantic anecdote of "Four naked girls danced profusely on the Mid-Autumn Festival night in Baijialou, which is indecent" was spread to the harem as a joke. Discover the Seventh Prince and the "Wenhui Tea House" behind him.

Looking at the volume of articles criticizing his own political views submitted by the hidden guard in his hand, the emperor angrily pushed down everything on the Long case, and at the same time ordered the "Baijialou" to be sealed up.

As for the "Wenhui Tea House", he intends to keep it for now, to see what more outrageous things this son, who is respectful and filial on the surface but actually rebellious, can do.

At the same time, the Empress Dowager also sent a ruler and a copy of "Biography of Martyr Girl" to Prince Qi's Mansion to show her dissatisfaction with Su Yizhen.Poor Su Yijin was forcibly taken back by the people sent by the King of Qi just after she was favored, and she was locked up in the Moon Moon Pavilion.

----------------

During Su Yijin's confinement period, the Seventh Prince never came to see her, which made her extremely uneasy.Especially after Xia Randie's death, she was even more worried, afraid that something bad happened to herself.

After waiting day after day, Su Yijin finally realized her precarious position in the Seventh Prince's heart.In order to save her own fate, she racked her brains and presented the drawing of the red-clothed cannon to the Seventh Prince.

But this time, she didn't give all of it to the Seventh Prince at once, but kept some of it.At the same time, he begged the Seventh Prince in the letter, hoping that she could rescue and protect himself.

After the Seventh Prince received the blueprint, he was first shocked by the huge lethality of the red cannon, and then furious because of Su Yijin's threatening use between the lines.

Reluctantly suppressing the anger in his chest, the Seventh Prince ordered his subordinates to try to complete the research on the blueprints, and at the same time ordered people to prepare horses. He wanted to go to the Qi County Mansion in person.

---------------------

In Qi County Prince's Mansion, Su Yijin had already packed up all her things and was quietly waiting for the Seventh Prince's arrival.She is very confident, with the seventh prince's greed and ambition, even if he is used by herself, he still wants to get the complete blueprint.Looking at her jade-white fingers, a tear rolled down the corner of Su Yijin's eyes. Since when did she need to rely on calculations to get what she wanted?

I don't know what the Seventh Prince said to the Qi County King, but Su Yijin finally got rid of the confinement, but she completely severed all ties with the Qi family.The Seventh Prince ordered a small sedan chair and carried her to a remote house.

Before leaving Qi County Prince's Mansion, the Seventh Prince saw Li Xi with a cold face, and just about to go up to say hello, he saw him kneel down in a distance, then turned and left.

"Your Highness, the boy is innocent, please forgive me. Later, I will punish you severely." Duke Qi quickly knelt down to plead guilty for him.

"It's okay," the Seventh Prince shook his head, "It's my king who can't help his sister, so he will inevitably feel uncomfortable. Forget it, I have something else to do, so I'm leaving now." After finishing speaking, the Seventh Prince left with his attendants.

Duke Qi was puzzled by his abnormal attitude, but the servant next to him reminded him: "Your Majesty, this lord is always a sympathetic lord, isn't our son too outstanding?"

King Qi's back shivered, and a chill instantly rose from his feet.He remembered the Seventh Prince's overly intimate attitude towards Li Xi, and ordered hoarsely: "Go to the back house, let's meet the old lady!"

----------------

Duke Qi had thought about it, and the Seventh Prince had already arrived at the small courtyard where Su Yijin was housed.

"From now on, you will stay here in peace, and this king will remember to come and see you often. As for your position, you don't have to worry about it. When the limelight passes, this king will take you into the mansion!" The seventh prince said coldly, with a smile on his face. People are gone.

"Yes, Your Highness." Su Yijin replied respectfully, and watched the Seventh Prince leave.The love in the past is like passing away.The gentle man who hugged him in his arms and pampered him at the beginning turned into a heartless man with a heart like iron.Su Yijin looked at the seventh prince's aloof back, and gradually became cold towards him.

-------------------

After Su Yijin left, Su Wangfu and Qijun Wangfu returned to their original calm.

One month later, Qi Yueru gave birth to a son, Yuxue, who was very cute and loved by the Queen Mother.He even personally participated in the little prince's full moon ceremony during the full moon, and even the emperor gave him a name, saying that he had the legacy of his ancestors.

The attitudes of the emperor and the empress dowager were very unpredictable, but the prince's lineage did not respond at all, and did what they were supposed to do step by step, without catching a trace of confusion at all.On the contrary, the officials who were close to the Seventh Prince were more or less reprimanded and punished because they were too aggressive.

At this time, Su Yijin who was in the other courtyard was even more anxious.When she learned that Qi Yueru's son had just been born as a child, the sense of crisis in her heart became more and more serious.

Now that the matter has come to this point, she has fully realized the meaning of the Seventh Prince's use of her.But the way forward was broken, and his reputation was ruined. Even if he left, he could only leave Beijing far away, and find a small place with no information to spend the rest of his life hastily.

Su Yijin is not reconciled. She is conceited that she is talented and has a peerless appearance, not to mention the spiritual spring space in her hand. She is born to stand in front of others and enjoy all the pursuit and admiration. How can she bear her obscurity and mediocrity for a lifetime?

Rubbing the unfinished blueprints in her hands, Su Yijin secretly made a dangerous decision.She avoided the maid who was watching her, secretly wrote a letter, and bribed the porter to send it out for her.

She already thought clearly that women are not only in love.Just like the heroines in those house fighting novels, they always break out of their own sky after suffering a painful blow and dying from the ashes.As for men, they are nothing more than spices to satisfy desires.

Looking at the gloomy courtyard, she comforted herself in her heart, "Heaven will send a great responsibility to the people." All these are the trials of God for her. As long as she endures the past, she will be able to achieve success just around the corner.

But the Seventh Prince was not in the mood to care about Su Yijin's changes.There seemed to be a big gap between him and Li Xi.The boy who usually likes to stick by his side and has a sweet smile seems to have grown up overnight.Whenever he thinks of Li Xi's respectful and distant appearance in front of him, his heart throbs non-stop, and the chill penetrates into his bones, even in the warm inner room like spring, his hands and feet are cold.

Teasing Qi Yueru's son-in-law in his arms, the Seventh Prince Yin Zhe's complexion eased a little.Although this child has his own taste in his eyebrows, he is actually more like Qi Yueru, or Li Xi.Especially those black and white cat eyes are exactly the same as Li Xi's.

Looking obsessively at the legitimate son in his arms, the Seventh Prince's expression was very soft.The attendant outside the door came in to announce that the prince of Qi County was visiting, and the concubine sent a maid to take the little prince back.

The Seventh Prince nodded, and went to Danxi Pavilion with the child in his arms.Li Xi was a little surprised to see him, but he didn't care about it in his heart, but after sitting for a while, he shirked that something was wrong and wanted to leave.The seventh prince hurriedly got up to see him off, walked to the gate of King Su's mansion, and unexpectedly got into the carriage with Li Xi by some miracle.

Seeing Li Xi's puzzled expression, the Seventh Prince didn't know what to say.The atmosphere in the car became condensed, Li Xi leaned on one side and stared out of the window in a daze, his half-closed eyelids covered the chill in his eyes.

The Seventh Prince looked at his side face with mixed emotions in his heart. He found that just looking at Li Xi like this would make him feel very happy. Gray thoughts.

The Seventh Prince felt that he had once again found the feeling of thumping, but this object was a boy or his wife's younger brother, which made him feel very tricky.But thinking that he would inherit the great rule in the future, he felt as if he had a way out.If he can really get that supreme position, all of this will be solved.After all, this world is his own, let alone a little prince of the county?

The assumptions in his mind made the Seventh Prince unbearably hot all over, wishing he could hold the boy in his arms, rub and kiss him immediately.But with the identities of the two of them now, he still restrained himself.

In front of the Duke's Mansion of Qi County, the Seventh Prince couldn't help but stop Li Xi who was about to enter.After a long silence, he asked bluntly, "Jing Xing, do you blame me?"

Li Xi stared at him for a while, then slowly shook his head.

The seventh prince's eyes sparkled with excitement, he stretched out his hand and pulled Li Xi to his side, and said happily: "Thank you Jing Xing, I knew you would understand."

Li Xi pushed him away indifferently, and saluted respectfully: "Your Highness, please respect yourself. Jing Xing is just a courtier, how can he have the right to resent you? As for understanding..." Li Xi raised his head and deliberately said the word in a tone of hatred He said one sentence: "Even my sister can understand, why should I be dissatisfied? After all, you are not someone to me!"

After Li Xi finished speaking, he confessed his crime again, then turned around and entered the palace, leaving the Seventh Prince standing outside the door alone.

Looking at his stern and decisive attitude, the Seventh Prince's heart felt as if it had been dug out by life.He originally thought that Li Xi's words and deeds were cold only because of Su Yijin's disappointment with him, but he didn't expect that he would actually hate him because of this.With a sweet throat, the Seventh Prince almost vomited blood.

At the same time, the prince flipped through the report from the hidden guard, and a malicious smile appeared on the corner of his lips.

He actually wanted to get his hands on this little fox like Li Xi. It seemed that he, the Seventh Emperor's younger brother, really had no brains.

Putting down the paperwork and lying on the soft couch by the window, the prince's eyes also had some radiance that was inevitable.What should I do, he wants to have such a beautiful and dazzling child!
