Chapter 8

After sending Pengcheng away, Shangguan Xi didn't intend to let it go.She went to her study, which has been a gathering place for secrets since ancient times.The former Shangguan Xi liked to read, and the place where he stayed most was the study room, where there must be a lot of exciting news.

As soon as Shangguan Xi entered the study, he could smell the fragrance of books.When she sniffed it again, she found that it was not, but that there was a scent of incense in the room.People walked around the vermilion desk a few times, and their fingers slid across the surface, a layer of faint dust, no one came to clean it these days?

Shangguan Xi called out, "Erya."

Erya didn't know which corner came out from. Shangguanxi had reason to suspect that this Erya was 'watching' her at any time. When Erya came out, her expression was normal, and she asked calmly, "Second Young Master, are you calling me a servant girl?" ?”

"I just want to ask, why hasn't the study been cleaned these days? Look, there's dust on the desktop."

Er Ya replied: "The study room is important, the second young master always cleans it by himself, afraid that the servants will not clean it carefully."

"Really? I forgot all about it. I'm sorry. It's okay. It's okay. You can go." In fact, Erya didn't understand what the second young master was doing. What can be seen from Shangguan Xi's face, but unfortunately, Shangguan Xi has been watching her leave, which forced her to go out quickly, still muttering in her heart: "Did the second young master find out about me?"

Seeing that Erya had completely left, she began to search the study.Starting from the book case, the paintings in the painting tube were opened one by one, and it turned out that several paintings were made by Shangguan Xi, with names mentioned on them, and there were poems and paintings.Shangguan Xi said to himself: "Unexpectedly, this Shangguan Xi is still a talented woman, but no matter how talented she is, she is still dead." Seeing a portrait of Pengcheng, it looked very inconspicuous, and it was placed in the corner, but Shangguan Xi understood that the two people The tricky between them, especially the phrase "if the two loves last for a long time, how can they be in the morning and evening".

The corner of Shangguan Xi's mouth curled up, and she guessed it.The relationship between Peng Cheng and Shangguan Xi was not easy, after all, he was the only man who knew the true identity of his predecessor Shangguan Xi, so he was more considerate of her than others, how could this young girl who had just begun to fall in love not fall for the bait.

But now things are different, it is better to kill this kind of feeling earlier.Shangguan Xi tore up the paintings. As long as they were drawn by Shangguan Xi, they would be torn off, and handwriting would be left behind. This would cause trouble in the future, and the paper would fly all over the ground.

Looking around the tall bookshelves, Shangguan Xi took out all the books, shaking them open one by one, to see if there were any letters inside, and occasionally there would be letters from Shangguan Xi and Peng Cheng.

"The two really have a great friendship."

Shangguan Xi picked it up and read it, and put it in a drawer after reading it, and burned it up later, so as not to fall into the wrong hands.The former Shangguan Xi was also too bold, even flirting with the doctor, secretly developing feelings for each other, isn't he afraid that these evidences will fall into the hands of others?

The dumb lamb, it's no wonder it wasn't eaten by that big brother.

Shangguanxi moved to the afternoon, Erya came over a few times, wanted to help, but was kicked out by Shangguanxi, "I don't need you here for the time being, you go and get the brazier and bring the flint and steel. The trash has been disposed of. By the way, bring a broom and a dustpan, and just take them and put them directly at the door."

Erya wanted to help, but couldn't.He turned around to get something and put it at the door, but he didn't intend to leave. Instead, he poked his head around and behaved very suspiciously.Shangguan Xi asked, "Is there something wrong?"

Erya said, "No."

"Then why don't you go?" Erya had no choice but to leave again, but she really wanted to find out what Shangguan Xi wanted to burn. It must be very important evidence. Gone, but not too far.

She was lurking in the dark like a snake, and wanted to wait for Shangguan Xi to show his weakness before attacking. As soon as Shangguan Xi left the study, she would go in and grab something.It's a pity that after waiting for a long time, Shangguan Xi didn't move. The door of the study was still closed. She secretly went to the window to look at it a few times, and saw that Shangguan Xi had burned the paper on the ground, and the letter was also torn into pieces and burned in her hands. .

Erya was in a hurry, as long as she got some evidence, but Shangguan Xi didn't give him a chance.Of course, Shangguan Xi would not leave any room for himself, let alone leave any room when he knew that Erya was at the window.Erya wandered around the window a few times, because it was daytime, any movement of a person would block the light on the window, Shangguan Xi knew there was someone outside the window by the flowing light and shadow on the ground, she was doing what she was supposed to do calmly, It wasn't until the last piece of paper turned into ashes that there was not even a corner left, and then someone was called in.

"Erya." She knew that Erya was outside.

Er Ya is very smart, first she walked away quietly, and then hurried over, "Second Young Master, you are looking for a slave."

Shangguan Xi ignored all artificial pretensions and said with a smile: "Please take out the brazier."

"What did Second Young Master burn? The whole room smells of smoke." Er Ya fanned the window with her hand, and opened the window to let the stale air escape a little.

"It's just some waste paper." Want to inquire?She would not let her know.Shangguan Xi was terribly calm, and he didn't give any openings. Even though Erya was discouraged, she still had to do her part and transport the brazier out.

The choking smell of paper in the room made Shangguan Xi cough a few times.It burned too much and too fiercely just now, my eyes were red from the smoke, and two lines of tears flowed from the pain.

After Erya left, Shangguan Xi took out a notebook from his arms, on which was written "The Analects of Confucius" very hypocritically, except for the cover, the contents inside were really exciting, Shangguan Xi only took a quick glance, and it was already a notebook. I laughed out loud.

After leaving the study room, I moved a rattan chair into the living room and sat out, while patiently finishing reading the diary of my predecessor Shangguan Xi.The content here is mostly the daily life of the youngest daughter. As for the growing affection for Pengcheng later, how the two avoid people's eyes and ears to meet each other, it is very trivial. Shangguan Xi only scolded 'simple mind', but was rescued twice. I fell in love with it after reading two lines of poems, isn't the value of this kind of liking too cheap?

Fortunately, it didn't say two people *, otherwise she would have the urge to jump into the pond, so she might as well just let her wear it back.However, there is no doubt that Peng Cheng and Shangguan Xi are in love.Shangguan Xi laughed at himself and said, "I didn't expect that there would be people who would like to dress up as fake men. It's really tasteful." Then Peng Cheng must have never had the chance to see Shangguan Xi's women's clothing, so they can be together like this.

After reading it, Shangguan Xi found a clean place and burned it clean again. Watching the diary turned into ashes, blown into the pond by the wind, and slowly sank to the bottom, Shangguan Xi turned around and left. It was discovered that there was someone standing behind him.

"Oh!" No matter how calm Shangguan Xi was, it might as well be this one.Seeing the person in front of her clearly, she said, "Sirou, why did you come here?"

Sirou smiled and said: "The slave girl saw the second young master standing here stupidly, so she wanted to come over and take a look, intending to scare you, but before the slave servant did it, you turned around automatically, scaring yourself."

"Is that so, you walk without making a sound?"

"It's the second young master who is too focused."

Shangguan Xi asked, "Are you here looking for me? Or are you passing by?"

"It was the concubine who asked the maidservant to tell you that it is a good thing for the lord to have dinner together today." Sirou smiled, as if she was hiding some secret. Shangguan Xi understood after thinking about it, this little girl In my heart, I'm afraid I'm congratulating myself, otherwise the prince has something good to say, she can't think of anything else except this one recently, but what she doesn't understand is that the second princess's personal maid didn't take care of her. Tell the princess about your stinking virtue?

Don't they say that girls like to whisper among themselves, the second princess knows, and the eldest princess must also know who she is, no one should marry her.

Shangguan Xi was slightly relieved and said: "I see, I'll be there later." In the past few days, she also felt the time for dinner in the palace, and without Si Rou's explanation, she went back to the house and changed a piece of clothes, After all, I just burned something, and my body smelled of burnt paper scraps.

After changing clothes, I went to the kitchen and asked for ashes.When she asked for this thing, the people in the kitchen didn't know why, and she didn't bother to explain.Carrying the ashes to the study room, a large sheet was spread at the door. If someone came in, they would definitely leave footprints. Shangguan Xi glanced under the desk. It was as if it was accidentally blown there.After finishing the ashes, he carefully closed the door.

Shangguan Xi came out to wash his hands, and poured the excess ashes into the flower bed in front of the house.This grass ash is the best fertilizer for plants, and the nitrogen element in it is very nourishing for the soil.After returning to the house, I washed my hands, and when it was almost meal time, I went to the hall of the palace.

In the past few days, she was ill and had no chance to see the family eating. When she came to the hall, she saw that several elders had arrived first, so she couldn't help saying hello.Then she sat next to her mother, her eyes just met Li Xiaofu, the princess on the upper side.

When Li Xiaofu looked at her, his eyes were still full of guard, and although there was a smile on the corner of his mouth, it was just a shallow smile, Shangguan Xi could still see this, and she didn't take it too seriously.

Not long after, Shangguan Yun got off the sedan chair and came back.Only then did Ye Bo start to let the kitchen serve dinner. When Shangguan Yun came back, he was in a hurry, but his face was unusually energetic, and he was full of smiles. He even greeted Shangguan Xi when he saw him.

"Xi'er, are you feeling well?"

"Thank you, father, for your concern. The baby is already recovering."

"That's fine."

When the two were talking, the table was already full of dishes.Shangguan Yun held a chopstick for Shangguan Xi, "It's just right for you, eat more vegetarian dishes, wait until you are stronger, and then eat meat dishes, so that you can recover quickly."

"Thank you, father." Shangguan Xi wished to return the vegetables in the bowl one by one. Didn't someone tell the prince that it is very unhygienic to bring vegetables for others?This also makes her how to eat.Shangguan Xi's fussy disease has happened again, but this is not her company anymore, she doesn't have the final say, hey, let's just forcefully move the dishes to the side of the bowl.

Lin Yueyan saw Shangguan Xi's little tricks in his eyes, and was afraid that Li Xiaofu would use the topic to make unnecessary troubles, so he blocked it with his sleeve and persuaded Shangguan Yun to eat more. "My lord has also had a hard day. Why did the court keep him so late this time?"

When asked about this, Shangguan Yun's face was full of red.
