Chapter 5 — Shining Pearl

“You can also help people find old things.” After returning to the Tham residence, I always thought of this saying. In that life, everyone said I was stupid. Stupid to the point of being cute, stupid to the point of making people feel secure, stupid to the point of being incomparable to her intelligent sister. Now someone says, I can help others find old things. It turns out that a pair of eyes can not only be used to win at banquets. It is also possible to see things that are hidden, locked, or damaged. When Wen Zhi Dao saw me out of the palace, the carriage stopped outside the palace gate. He suddenly said: "In Tich Vi Lau, there are also many things locked." I looked at him. "Is this the Grand Deputy giving me a job first?" "No." He paused for a moment. "I wanted to ask if she was interested." I smiled. "Yes." "Is it more interesting than discussing marriage?" He asked too naturally. On the contrary, it made my ears turn red. "Lord Grand Master." He looked at me. "Yes?" "When you asked for marriage, did you also ask something like that?" On Tri Dao thought for a moment. "I'm not good at this." "I see." There was a faint smile in his eyes. "Then you teach me." I couldn't answer for a moment. His voice was serious: "If I said something wrong, please tell me." "I can fix it." The cold wind outside the carriage was very light. I sat in the car, looked at his cold eyes, and suddenly felt that this person was actually not as tasteless as rumored. He just expressed all his sincerity as if he were asking for advice. But it doesn't sound obnoxious. Even a little peaceful. I said in a low voice: "Then from now on, don't always call me Second Lady of the Tham family." "Name." On Tri Dao looked at me. "Chieu Vi." My heart jumped slightly. He called very calmly. But it makes my ears hot for a long time. 7. The fifth prince came to see me again, it was in December. That day, I had just come out of Tich Vi Lau. Holding an old instrument drawing book in his hand, he was preparing to get in the car. Tieu Thua Canh stood on the opposite side of the street. He wore a fox fur coat, his eyes were gentle, and he still had the look that many ladies loved. I bowed to him. "Meeting the Royal Family." He looked at the old drawing in my hand. "Wen Thai Phu really let you enter Tich Vi Lau?" "Um." "Those drawings of the tools are dry, can you see them?" I smiled. "Can see." He was silent for a moment. "On the day of the birthday celebration party, this king saw wrongly." I bowed my head. "The Royal Family spoke too much." You seemed to not like my politeness. My eyebrows furrowed slightly. "Tham Chieu Vi, you don't need to be like that in front of this king." I almost laughed. In his previous life, he said again: "Tham Chieu Vi, in front of this king, can you not always show this pitiful appearance?" Now in another life, even my politeness is jarring to him. I said: "The Queen and the Royal Family do not have personal relations." "You should keep polite." Tieu Thua Canh's face stiffened slightly. He was silent for a moment, then suddenly said: "Recently, my king has often thought, if On that day it had not been for Thai Deputy On that day, would this king have spoken?"
Will you look at her again?" I looked at him. "No." He was stunned. I said: "Your Majesty was disappointed that day." "You like the innocence of not being able to solve the ring, not the alertness of seeing that the ring is broken." His face gradually turned white. This sentence seemed to speak to the most secret place in the bottom of his heart. He said in a low voice: "How do you know that my prince likes innocence?" I smiled slightly. "In the eyes of the Prince, he looked at you. wrote." He still wanted to say something, when Wen Zhi Dao's voice suddenly came from next to the carriage. "Your Highness the Fifth." Tieu Thua Canh raised his head. On Zhi Dao walked out from the door of Tich Vi Lau, also holding a book in his hand. He walked to my side, very naturally took the drawing of the old instrument in my arms. "The book is heavy, leave it to me." Tieu Thua Canh's face became even more unsightly. "Your Highness." On Zhi Dao nodded. "If Your Highness." It's okay, I'll take Chieu Vi back to the palace first." The two words Chieu Vi fell. Tieu Thua Canh's eyes froze. I was also stunned. On the other hand, Wen Tri Dao seemed not to notice, just adjusted the edge of my cloak for me. "High wind." My ears warmed up, and I said in a low voice: "Thank you." Tieu Thua Canh looked at this scene, the bottom of his eyes finally revealing a bit of belated unwillingness. "The Grand Deputy and Second Miss Tham are really close." Wen Tri Dao Tieu Thua Canh was stopped and had nothing to say. When the carriage left, I saw him still standing there. In that moment, I suddenly remembered myself in my previous life, watching him send Tham Minh Xu away. Looking at them one step apart, talking about old books and things that I didn't understand Now I know. Some people just come to the door that doesn't belong to them. No matter how noisy the door is, they shouldn't wait forever. In the carriage, On Tri Dao asked me: "What did he say to you?" I thought for a moment. "Say he saw wrongly." On Tri Dao nodded. "It's true that he saw wrongly."
