Chapter 2 — Little Cong Gia Comes to Pray Than

I tilted my head to avoid it, the peach blossom brooch stuck in the air. "Big brother, I don't like the peach blossom brooch, it doesn't match my outfit today." The elder brother's smile stiffened in the blink of an eye, his hand slowly retracted. "It's my fault. I thought that if you like eating peaches, you probably also like peach blossoms. When His Highness asked, I casually said a sentence. "I lowered my eyes, looking at the peach blossom branch embroidered next to his shirt. In my previous life, I always thought that Luc Sung An planted the peach forest in the palace for me because one day I happened to say that peaches were very sweet. He favored me so he planted a peach blossom garden for me. Every spring, flowers bloom brightly like clouds, we think it is a grace that belongs only to us. Only later did we know that during the days when peach blossoms filled the sky, he often pulled the brothers to sit across from each other in the forest, wine cups touching wine cups, flower petals falling all over his shirt. The elder brother loves peach blossoms. As for the peach that I love, it's just a convenient fruit that came out of the immense spring color he gave me. ……04I retracted my gaze, feeling a surge of bitterness in my heart. I just turned my face and quickly left a sentence: "I'll go out first." Then I turned around and left. Behind him, the senior brother clutched the peach blossom brooch, frozen in place, confused and not knowing what to do. Maybe he thought I was angry because he stayed at the Eastern Palace last night and missed the appointment with me to fly a kite today. In the afternoon, when I returned to the palace, while passing by the elder brother's yard, my steps suddenly stopped. The courtyard door was ajar, and inside came the sound of a gurgling instrument like flowing water. I looked through the crack in the door. The leader sat in front of the altar, his fingertips plucking the strings. Luc Sung An stood behind him, bent down, almost hugging him in his arms. His palm covered the back of the senior's hand, guiding his fingers across the strings, sometimes pressing and sometimes stroking. The two of them were so close to each other, so close that Luc Sung An's breath almost fell into the elder brother's ear. Hearing the sound of footsteps, the elder brother felt like he was burned and suddenly withdrew his hand. The strings made a shrill sound. Luc Sung An was very leisurely, slowly standing up straight, with a faint smile on his face. "Tri Vi is back?" "Are you angry? Sister Dat has already told me. Yesterday I kept him playing chess too late, making him miss work today when he went flying a kite with you. It's my fault, don't blame him." The senior also spoke up quickly, a bit of panic still in his voice: "Tri Vi, are you back? I came especially to visit you.” I stood by the door, my eyes passed the two people, and fell on the piano. Not long ago, Luc Sung An spent a lot of effort inviting the most famous luthier in Jiangnan to find hundred-year-old corn wood and specially order this instrument. From choosing materials to completion, it took half a year. In his previous life, he only said he would find the piano for me. I was so happy that I even played it a few times. The clear and distant sound of the guitar is truly not an ordinary thing. But later, every time he had a headache, he always called his brother to come play the piano for him, each time lasting more than half a day. At that time, I just thought the elder brother was helping me share my sorrows, but I never thought much about it. Until after the autumn hunt, after learning the truth, I angrily returned to the palace, wanting to burn this instrument. But when we lifted the guitar high, preparing to throw it to the ground, we accidentally saw the bottom of the guitar. On it were two names engraved, namely Luc Sung An and his brother. Next to it was a small line of writing: "There's that beauty, it's hard to forget when you meet her. If you don't see her for a day, you'll miss her like crazy." In the end, the guitar was not burned. Luc Sung An stopped him. ……05 “Big brother, you don't need to fly kites with me anymore.

The weather's not good lately, I don't want to let it go." I turned to Luc Sung An again. "Your Highness, in my heart, you are just like a senior brother. In the future, there's no need to visit me specifically to avoid causing others to gossip." The smile on Luc Sung An's face gradually cooled. He stared at me, his eyes slowly covered with a heavy layer of darkness. "Tri Vi, what are you doing?" "I knew your elder brother first. We have been classmates for many years, and our relationship is deep." "If it weren't for his introduction, I wouldn't have known that you existed." "Now you even want to eat So Dat's vinegar? It's in vain that her big brother always takes care of everything for her. She causes trouble, he cleans it up; She was upset, he showed up. As for her, it's good, when you say you're about to turn around, you'll turn around?" The brother showed up for me, but who knows if under that panic, there was also some fear and dissatisfaction for himself mixed in? A few days ago, in the palace banquet, I accidentally heard a few noble ladies gathering and saying bad things: "Just the daughter of a fifth-rank official, relying on a little beauty and clinging to the crown prince and not letting go, her heart is higher than the sky." The brother just happened to pass by. When I passed, I couldn't listen, so I came to explain a few words for me. Who would have thought that those people were even more outrageous? I don't know who said something:
