About Me Than the Heroine Su

Chapter 56 - game



It’s more of a joke than a question.

The emperor chuckled, but he didn’t mean to say that it was rare for someone to speak in front of him without being afraid, but the environment at the moment was quiet and comfortable.

“Are you spying on my mind?”

Although he said it with a smile, according to the unfathomable aura of the emperor, even with a smile on his face, it always makes people feel that this is the tranquility before the storm, and inexplicably becomes uneasy.

Bai Chu is a layman after all. She has no reverence or recognition for the imperial power, but once the imperial power implicates her life, it will be different.

He shook his head quickly, and said sincerely: “Where are you talking? It’s just the usual greeting when acquaintances are sitting opposite each other. The court lady is timid, you look a little scared, so that I can’t stand it.”

The emperor was amused and laughed, “I rarely see such a sincere temperament.” An honest person, with three points sincerity, three points cunning, three points agility, and a smoothness, is the most pleasing appearance.

“Whose young lady are you?” The emperor just heard the conversation between their master and servant just now, and he was still a little uncertain, so he asked aloud.

Jin’er can be brought into the palace, and she is so young and has no appointment. Since she is married, she can only be brought into the palace by her mother-in-law.

There are not many people with such authority. Before Bai Chu can answer, the emperor’s thoughts changed and he guessed: “Are you Duan Min’s newly married daughter-in-law?”

If it was someone else, he really wouldn’t necessarily remember it, but when Princess Duanmin wanted to change the candidate for the marriage contract, she also entered the palace to report to the emperor, and now he can more or less remember it.

“Yes.” Bai Chu agreed in a clear voice. After speaking, he felt that this word was a bit perfunctory, he tilted his head to think about it, and added a serious expression, “Your Majesty is wise.”

The emperor laughed out loud, and the person who was smart just now suddenly showed a dull and dull side, which made it even more interesting: “No wonder you said that you don’t want to enter the palace, and marrying into the palace of the eldest princess is indeed better than marrying into the palace. much better.”

A look of astonishment appeared in Bai Chu’s wide-open eyes: “Your Majesty, don’t wrong your courtiers, I never said that!”

“I just said that the people outside the palace yearn for the life in the palace, and the people in the palace are thinking about the vast world outside the palace. This is human nature, and it must be bad if you don’t say entering the palace.”

Listening to her hurriedly defending her voice, her tone was still soft and soft, which made her feel very bullying.

The corners of the emperor’s lips were slightly raised, and he laughed in a deep voice: “What I heard with my own ears, can it still be fake?”

“Are you saying I’m wrong?”

Bai Chu moved his lips, and under his deep gaze, he silently swallowed the words back: “…you’ll be happy.”

The emperor’s face relaxed and smiled gently: “Okay, I don’t mean to blame you.” To a certain extent, he felt that what she said was quite reasonable, but her words seemed to be empty. Freedom is more important than the glory at hand, which is quite new.

The emperor thought that after staying in the palace for a long time, he naturally looked forward to going outside the palace to soothe his mind.

But if there was a choice between never being able to leave the palace, and not being able to come back after leaving the palace, he thought, most people would still choose the former.

Prosperity and wealth are one thing, and more importantly, after staying in the palace for a long time, most of them will not survive if they are suddenly sent out of the palace.

“Your name is Bai?” he asked suddenly.

Bai Chu frowned, these days women are all named after their surnames, but after passing through nearly a year, it was the first time she heard someone call her like this: “The official wife is indeed Bai and her name is Chu Hua, if your majesty doesn’t mind, Just call me by my name.”

An ancient woman’s boudoir name cannot be easily revealed, but the emperor just blurted out to call her a little girl, seeing that she was about the same age as the princess in the palace, so he regarded her as a junior, so he could still pronounce her name. : “Chu Hua.”

But then again, the emperor of the world, as long as he is happy, other rules and regulations are just empty words.

“There’s still an hour left before the banquet, are you going to just sit here?”

Bai Chu just wanted to say something, but in a flash, it was difficult to hesitate. The emperor was happy and said that she was pretending: “Don’t hide what you have to say, you have said all the wicked things just now, did I blame you?”

Bai Chu pursed her lips and smiled, her brows and eyes were curved like a crescent moon with silver radiance in the night sky, and her honest and well-behaved expression couldn’t hide the agility in her gaze: “To tell you the truth, if you don’t come, I really plan to Stay here until dinner.”

“Actually, it’s not boring. If you look at the other side, it’s just like life is full of different expressions.”

The emperor unconsciously followed her words and looked to the other side, but it was just a bunch of young girls coming and going, laughing and joking, not to mention the current emperor, even when he was sixteen or seventeen years old when he was young and vigorous. I won’t stop for a moment for such a scene.

Bai Chu saw his disapproval, and smiled: “Don’t think of them as noble ladies who are older than the boudoir, it seems that they have nothing to worry about except piano, chess, calligraphy and painting all day long. Men are better than officials and power, women are They are also more beautiful than men, more talented than family background, more temperament and so on, and so on, who said we can live easier than men?”

The emperor was startled and asked with great interest, “Then tell me about it.”

“Why do I need to tell you?” Bai Chu looked up with a smile, “You are in the depths of the harem, and you are the biggest target for everyone to compete for. You don’t know how to do everything possible and create new ideas. Is it?”

The emperor was silent, really thought about it carefully, and said sincerely: “Actually, this biggest target is really not me.”

Women in the harem care about power and status and the future of their children, and the emperor is just a means and a way for them to obtain these two.

The emperor thought, in the past few decades, looking back, it is not that he has never met a woman who is sincere to him, but in the end it will always change, there is no way, this is such an environment, if it does not change, it will not survive.

It doesn’t mean much to blame, as Bai Chu said, it’s just human nature.

Thinking of this, a thought suddenly popped into my mind. If the woman in front of me entered the palace, would it change? What will it become? She said with certainty, is it because the ignorant is fearless, or is it really clear and rational?

Bai Chu shuddered suddenly, and looked around blankly, how could she feel that someone was plotting against her behind her back?

Wouldn’t it be Bai Yinhua again?

When the emperor saw that she seemed to be a cat stretching her waist, she was suddenly poked in the stomach, and she curled up subconsciously. She couldn’t help laughing, and said with a smile, “Why, you’re cold?”

Bai Chu shook his head: “Nothing. I just feel that although people’s hearts are different, they also have something in common. It has nothing to do with the difference between men and women. There should be ambitious people, whether they are men or women, but they have been educated since childhood. The difference, coupled with the subtle influence of the surrounding environment, makes the means different.”

It is said that if the drug is aimed at men, then most of them are poisons that take their lives, but when they are used on women, they basically make them lose their temper and ruin their reputation. There is no difference in essence. Because for a woman, a bad reputation is equivalent to ruining her life.

The result is the same, that is, the other party cannot survive.

In her understated emotion, the emperor couldn’t help but think of the balance between the weight and the weight for more than ten years, and finally let the queen and the four concubines compete with each other, and they were in a delicate stalemate. While the princes had not fully entered the dynasty, the harem was finally quiet. for several years.

He sighed softly, “You are right.” Before he finished speaking, he felt a little funny, “It’s also interesting, I have grown you up for more than ten years, and you haven’t seen it clearly.”

Bai Chu took a sip of tea slowly, and his rising tone carried a charming smugness: “You have a lot of time in your day, and your precious energy and brainpower have been taken away from the most important affairs of state affairs and the people of the world. How can you pay attention to these trivial matters?”

Anyway, according to the shrewd calculations of today’s emperor, coupled with the natural repression of imperial power, no matter what kind of thoughts are in his heart, no matter what the man or woman is, he can’t turn the palm of his hand.

“It’s me too, it’s the court lady talking nonsense. If your majesty is bothered, just forget it.”

The emperor glanced at her with a smile: “It’s just been ‘me, me’ for a long time, now you know how to bring yourself to call yourself?”

“I have been in court for more than ten years, and I have never seen anyone in the civil and military officials who are as bold as you.”

“That’s why I can’t find it,” Bai Chu continued with a smile, “You’re picking it up today.”

The emperor laughed out loud, watching her say nothing for a long time.

Bai Chu blinked, and suddenly thought to say, “Actually, if there are two people, it’s not that there is no other way to waste time.”

The emperor was curious: “What?”

“Does the emperor know how to play chess?” Bai Chu smiled and rolled his eyes, looking innocent and harmless.

The emperor always felt that what she said was not ordinary chess: “Is there no chess board here?”

Bai Chu said: “You don’t need a chessboard.” She took out a small celadon water-colored jar from the cuff, and gently opened the lid with her slender fingers. Inside was a delicate paste of vermilion and moisturizing.

In ancient times, women also had to do makeup when they went out. Most of them were inconvenient. In order not to affect the makeup, they didn’t eat or drink outside, and they didn’t even dare to blow the wind. Even so, the makeup on the face was difficult. Lasted two hours.

In this small jar is the mouth fat made by Bai Chu himself. Usually, you can dab it with your fingertips at will, and then gently rub it on your lips, which makes it look light, pink, tender and natural.

There’s no way, she’s really free now, and it’s hard to go out, so she can only sit and study these things every day.

She removed everything on the stone table by herself, and tapped the can of mouth fat with her right index finger, which she also used as paint, and made several strips on the stone table. Like a chessboard.

The left and right are at the bottom of the mirror surface, and it is easy to wipe off when you turn around.

The emperor lowered his eyes, and let her play with her in a leisurely manner. A few wisps of clear and sparse aroma were faintly introduced from the tip of his nose. It was unfamiliar, but it was also very pleasant. His eyes moved, and his faint gaze fell on her crimson fingertips.

“Is this the incense you made yourself?”

Bai Chu was busy working and didn’t think much, nodded and replied: “Yes, I added several kinds of spices, sweet rosin, styrax, sparrow head, white sandalwood, agarwood… I have tried the ingredients many times. , just do what I like.”

Saying that the grid on her hand has been drawn, she raised her eyes and smiled at him: “Your Majesty said just now that he would not blame me, did he?”

The emperor raised his eyebrows: “What I said is naturally true.”

“You have no jokes?”

“You have no jokes.”

“That’s good.” Bai Chu pulled his hand straight, and before the other party could react, he directly poked his index finger into the fat, and then placed the small square in the middle on the “chessboard” on the stone table. , draw a circle.

The emperor might as well let her dare to do it, but if she didn’t notice it for a while, she really made her wait: “What are you doing?”

“Playing chess.” Bai Chu let go of his hand and said with a smile, “I barely made a chess board, and there are no chess pieces, so today I will teach you a new way to play chess, which is not as advanced as Go, it is purely funny Yes, don’t take offense.”

She was talking about the tic-tac-toe chess that she was used to playing when she was a child in her previous life, and applied the backgammon method, circle and fork, no matter which one, if you get a group of five first, you will win.

The circles are all drawn there. I am afraid that the boat will not be able to get off. The emperor smiled helplessly. When she made a cross, and then looked up with a smiling face, she silently raised her hand under the circle just now. Draw a red circle.

That’s all, it’s just to coax children to play.
