Jianghai Wuyue

Chapter 17: Father

It was cold and cold in the snowy day, Chen Ling went out as usual, but when he came back, he always had to have a good talk with Chen Ye, seeing Chen Ye's lively eyes, the uneasiness in his heart was getting bigger and bigger .

Just like this, when the cloud of doubts in his chest was getting bigger and bigger, the banquet for reaching the crown was approaching.Mrs. Liu took this matter very seriously, and she had already made preparations early on, and the invitations were sent out early, and all the people in the mansion were so busy that they were steaming even in the cold weather.

Mr. Chen also hurried back home. The emperor valued Mr. Chen, and there were several carts full of rewards after Mr. Chen returned home, including Mrs. Chen who was a concubine in the palace. something down.

Mr. Chen went back to Yuzhou all the way, and when he was about to enter, many men, women, old and young from the clan came to visit him. Suddenly, the whole Chen Mansion was full of people and crowded.

Eldest Master Chen was extremely handsome, different from the elegance of Second Master Chen, his long and narrow eyes glowed with power and authority without anger, even sitting on a chair to read a book usually makes people breathless.Chen Xi is a person who loves to act like a baby, but in front of Mr. Chen, he is like a kitten whose neck has been strangled. Lively.

Elder Chen glanced indifferently, and didn't care about his younger son's unfamiliarity with him. When he saw the elder son who made him proud, he finally had a warm smile on his face.It's just that this smile also reveals a sense of alienation and indifference, even though the corner of the mouth is smiling, there is no warmth in the eyes.

Chen Ling is a person with a delicate mind, how can he not see that this father is not very warm to him, and sporadic calculations and calculations occasionally pass through his eyes.This is not like a father looking at his child, but a stranger looking at something that has no serious relationship with him.

In the past few days, I have been inquiring about the news one after another. The many doubts buried in it made Chen Ling feel terrified every time he read it. All kinds of busy thinking made Chen Ling feel irritable. The smiling face turned pale and tired.

Mr. Chen only thought that he was investigating the case in the past few days, and the investigation was reversed day and night, so that he was tired of deep thinking.Thinking of the news from the informant, Mr. Chen's eyes narrowed, but this matter should not be investigated by the eldest son who has a clear mind.Immediately, he put down the book in his hand, and pulled Chen Ling's arm with a smile, his brows and eyes were full of tenderness and kindness, the cold indifference before was like wind blowing smoke away, without waves and ripples.

"Your sister often talks about you, but she is in the palace and cannot see you. If not, she will definitely come back to see you." Elder Chen's eyelids lightly closed, and his nearly thirty-year-old one became more and more handsome There was a bit of melancholy and pity on his face, "When you were young, your sister loved you the most, and always wanted to hold you in her arms, and protect you tightly wherever she went, lest you get bumped. When you were three When I was four years old, I went to the palace with an edict, and I haven't seen you for decades."

When mentioning the eldest daughter, Mr. Chen's eyes were full of genuine softness, which was not at all like the indifference of their two sons just now.

This eldest sister, Chen Ling, is really grateful. Apart from Mrs. Liu, this elder sister took care of him the most when he was young.When he was drafted into the palace, he cried and chased for half a mile, until his tender red feet were worn out, and he could only watch helplessly as the sending team got farther and farther away.Gradually, he couldn't even see the festive red color, only the cold wind blowing from the river after another made his face ache. Enduring sobs and tears.

"Eldest Sister treats me really well. I don't know how Eldest Sister is doing after we've been apart for decades. In the deep palace, it's like walking on thin ice. A gentle and virtuous person like Eldest Sister, I don't know how to live with trepidation." Chen Ling His eyes were dimly lit, and the words that came out of his lips seemed to be filled with a layer of care and melancholy.Under the bright snow light outside the window, a pair of eyes are even more soft and charming.

Grandpa Chen looked at the appearance of the eldest son who grew more handsome and graceful, which overlapped unexpectedly with the face he had seen every day. Only one eye seemed to be galloping with thousands of horses, agitating the cold corpse. Mountain blood sea.A person's eyes are like the Tsinghua moon cream that is not stained with dirt, illuminating the purest layer of vanity in the world.

Grandpa Chen closed his eyes, and there was a flash of unbearable in his eyes, but the sentimentality that came so quickly was washed away by the calculations that came one after another.The corner of Wei Yu's mouth is not really kind and kind, it seems like a cloud of mist, hiding the real sinister calculations.

Chen Xi, who was hiding beside Chen Ling, looked like a wisp of inconspicuous smoke and dust, with a pair of eyes looking coldly at Mr. Chen's handsome and soft torso, which contained a cold and sinister ghost.With both hands quietly and obediently grasping Chen Lingpu's snow-white sleeves by his side, he squeezed a thick white mark on his knuckles, turned his head quietly to look at Chen Ling's clear and clear face, and his eyes were full of flowing water. Get up a little bit of life.

Grandpa Chen looked at Chen Ling with satisfaction, thinking about his eldest daughter, and talked with Chen Ling about his son in a warm voice, before letting them go out.

Except for the door of the study room, Chen Ling felt that the stuffiness that had been suppressed layer by layer on his body dissipated, and let out a long breath.Holding Chen Xi's soft and warm hand, the cause and effect of the things he got in the past few days are almost guessed, and the reason made Chen Ling throw his previous suspicions to the sky.

Thinking of how his father completely forgot about him just now in the study, his heart was even softer and cherished. He bent down, touched Chen Xi's cold little face with his hand, and said in a warm voice: "Father is coming home today. Mister may have given you a day off, and brother will take you out for a horse ride."

Chen De raised his head and looked at Chen Ling with bright eyes, managed to calm down his petite temperament, and said calmly: "It's good to be able to do anything with my brother." It's just the eyes The shiny appearance, after all, still reveals a bit of a youthful spirit.

Staying here for the whole night in Chen Ling last night, Chen Xi seemed to be half-hearted, and completely left his yard aside.Even the nanny who followed her was sent aside, and she followed Chen Ling like a little tail all day long, pushing aside Wang Qi who had the same temperament.The two secretly fought over who could say more to Chen Ling, and they saw each other as a thorn in their side more and more day by day.

Chen Ling watched the bickering between the two overtly and secretly, which was also quite interesting, and he would often tease a few words pretending not to know, watching the two people fight for real, and then calmly suppressed the dark fire.Just like this, amidst the exhilarating bickering, the day slowly passed to the day of reaching the crown.

As soon as it was daylight, Chen Ling had already woken up, and the maid had already placed mugwort leaves in the bath, and the slightly blue pool water soaked Chen Ling's blue pajamas, revealing his beautiful muscles radian.The maid standing beside her was holding the clothes in her hands, her blushing cheeks peeked at Chen Ling's exposed young body.I don't know why, but I always feel that the young master is like a pearl, soaked in water, and looks more elegant.

There are so many noble girls on Tianmu Mountain, Lin Si has seen such eyes a lot, and she can tell what this girl is thinking just by taking a quick glance.It's just that the man didn't make any flirtatious moves, but his cheeks blushed, and he just gave it a cool glance before giving up.

After Chen Ling finished bathing, there was a faint fragrance of green fruits floating on his body, and he walked to Xiaoxiangzhou to pay his respects in only a thin plain robe.There is also a spirited Chen Xi with him.

"Brother, it's still snowing. It's too thin for you to only wear such a suit." Chen Xi was wrapped in a thick cloak and had a heater in his hand. Feel cold tight.Seeing his elder brother wearing only such a suit, walking gracefully in the deep winter dew, with wet mist on his hands, he couldn't help shivering with empathy.

Chen Ling smiled lightly at Chen De and said, "Brother has martial arts skills, so he doesn't feel cold, but you, who are always weak, feel cold with only this kind of clothing." The cloak, the cloak is wrapped with a circle of white and fluffy fox fur piled on the tip of the chin, which makes the face look like jade.

Chen Xi looked longingly at Chen Ling's unrestrained appearance in the cold wind and snow, thinking that if he could also learn martial arts like his elder brother, he could also be like his elder brother, not afraid of the cold wind and snow, and come freely Go, what a wonderful feeling that must be.My heart was agitated for a moment, and I couldn't help but said loudly: "I will also learn martial arts in the future, like my brother, I can come and go freely, and I am not afraid of foreign objects."

Hearing Chen Defa's great wish, Chen Lingxin smiled wryly in his heart. He was afraid that this wish would never come true, but looking at Chen De's shining eyes because of this wish, he could only smile softly and say, "Okay, brother is waiting for the day when you finish your studies."

Xiaoxiangzhou was already brightly lit, Mr. Chen and Mrs. Liu had already woken up early, seeing Chen Ling coming in with Chen Xi, looking affectionate, a faint glint flashed in Mrs. Liu's eyes.If it wasn't for Chen Ling's attention from the corner of his eye all the time, Chen Ling might not have noticed this small detail at all.On the other hand, Mr. Chen, nothing could be seen on his face.

Seeing that Chen Ling was only wearing a single suit, Mrs. Liu frowned displeasedly, "How do you do things? In this deep winter, you let the young master come out wearing such a thin shirt. If the time comes, let the young master freeze it." If it’s broken, I’ll buy you all immediately.”

The two maidservants who followed her had squeezed their heads to get to Cang Yue Mountain. When they heard that Mrs. Liu was going to buy them out, they immediately turned pale and knelt on the ground and kowtowed in panic.He didn't dare to yell and beg for mercy, for fear of disturbing today's auspicious day and making Madam more cruel to them.

Seeing that the two maids hadn't yelled, Mrs. Liu nodded slightly satisfied. She just looked at the dew on Chen Ling's body, and didn't want to spare them lightly.

"Mother, this is my own decision. How can I blame them?" Chen Ling knew how to coax Mrs. Liu, helped Mrs. Liu to sit down, served a cup of tea with her own hands, and said with a smile "What's more, my son is in good health. They are just maidservants, how can they manage my affairs. Today is an auspicious day, and it is not suitable for killing. Mother calm down, and after the time is over, it is fine to punish according to mother." .”

When Mrs. Liu heard Chen Ling's soft words, no matter how angry she could be, she could only pat him lightly, and let it go with a smile.
