Then the fourth master on the side glanced at her with the kind of eyes that disgusted her and never saw the world.

Seeing that it was almost time for lunch, the fourth master lightly ordered: "Su Peisheng, let them drive the boat to the houseboat." ”

"Huh."

Ruoyin asked puzzled, "Houseboat?" ”

"Since you're going to stay here for a few days, you don't want to sleep on the boat, do you?"

"No, no, no." From the capital to here, all the way by boat, Ruoyin was a little tired, "Master, I think the houseboats we passed by before coming are very beautiful, and...... And a little romantic. “

"Romantic?" The fourth master frowned, as if he didn't understand the meaning of this word.

"Hmm...... It means indulgent, poetic, fantastical, and informal, and mostly refers to the relationship between men and women. Ruoyin explained.

"......" The fourth master's eyes turned slightly, as if he was thinking about something.

Immediately after that, the boat that had been docked began to paddle among the reeds.

Su Peisheng also fished up the fish cage and poured it into a shallow wooden basin.

"Lots of crabs and prawns!" Ruoyin saw that the fish cage was full, and couldn't help but go over to watch.

As a result, several crabs and shrimp crawled out of the tub.

Ruoyin grabbed one of the crabs.

Probably too anxious, I accidentally got caught in the crab's pincers.

"Sss Ruoyin immediately retracted her hand.

"Madame, are you alright, it doesn't matter." Su Peisheng and Banmei asked anxiously.

The fourth master on the side was originally playing with a fishing rod.

After he heard Su Peisheng's words, he raised his feet and walked to Ruoyin.

And grabbed her hand and took a closer look.

I saw a blood hole the size of a needle's eye on the woman's index finger, and blood was gushing out.

"Call the Imperial Doctor." The fourth master said.

Ruoyin withdrew her hand and said with some caution: "Master, I think it's okay, it's okay with such a small wound." ”

The fourth master pulled her to sit down on the chair next to her, he looked at her, and said very seriously: "Don't you think, I want me to think, understand?" ”

"Oh." Do you want to be so domineering, do you want to be so double standard, Ruoyin muttered in her heart.

Why did he think it was right, but she didn't think it was right.

He thinks she has to listen to him, she thinks he will kill her.

No, she's about to be stunned by herself.

Actually, she wanted to say that she would also disinfect and bandage.

However, facing the serious eyes of the fourth master, she felt that he would definitely say domineeringly that her hands were injured, so let the imperial doctor come, and then let her listen to him.

After a while, Imperial Doctor Feng came.

He was the only accompanying imperial physician on this southern tour.

Because of her special identity, she and the fourth master went out, and others couldn't believe in seeing a doctor.

In addition, sometimes the situation is urgent, and there is no medical hall around, so it is much more convenient to bring an imperial doctor.

Imperial Doctor Feng first gave Ruoyin a pulse diagnosis through a silk scarf.

Then he was wearing a pair of cotton gauze gloves and wanted to pull Ruoyin's hand to look at the wound.

But the fourth master took the first step to hold Ruoyin's hand and lit it up in front of his eyes.

Seeing this, Imperial Doctor Feng was so frightened that he immediately withdrew his hand.

"Fourth master, Madame's hand is not probable, the slave will disinfect her and bandage it a little."

Hearing this, Ruoyin gave the fourth master a look.

The look in his eyes seemed to say, "Look, I just said it's okay, right?"

However, the fourth master didn't receive the meaning in her eyes.

Because his focus was on Imperial Doctor Feng.

I saw him take the medicine and gauze from Imperial Doctor Feng's hand, and said coldly: "You guys stand down." ”

"Huh."

So, Imperial Doctor Feng and the guards, as well as Banmei, all went out.

There are not many people on this southern tour, and when I was in the Forbidden City before, there may have been a female medicine boy who gave Ruoyin medicine.

To say that the fourth master cares that Imperial Doctor Feng is a man, but Banmei is a personal palace maid?

After the minions all went out, the fourth master disinfected Ruoyin's fingers with a cold face and bandaged them.

After a cup of tea, Ruoyin looked at the fingers wrapped like zongzi, and looked helpless.

She looked at the fourth master faintly.

Isn't it just a small needle wound, as for the bandaging so thick?

The fourth master met her complaining eyes, but he didn't take it seriously at all.

Moments later, the boat stopped at a houseboat.

After getting off the boat, Ruoyin found that there were almost all the same houseboats around, and it looked like a homestay.

She counted six houseboats slanting between the canopies.

Two-thirds of the hull floats on the lake, light and agile.

The surface of the lake reflects the arches of the houseboats.

Su Peisheng was talking to the boatman, probably talking about the price and the room.

Then, the boatman invited Ruoyin and the fourth master in.

The houseboat is made of red cedar wood.

In the middle, there is a skylight-like frame, through which sunlight shines through, and occasionally a few birds pass by.

Ruoyin heard a few polite words from the boat family and the fourth master, and went out.

The minions also stepped back and busied themselves with lunch.

Ruoyin was lying on the bed, looking out through the skylight.

Then she walked out to the terrace, leaning against the wooden railing, admiring the endless reeds.

Half an hour later, the minions put their meal on the semi-circular table outside the terrace.

There are spicy prawns, steamed crab, braised fish, chopped pepper fish head, and crucian carp tofu soup.

There are also three stacks of greens and vegetables, which are pulled from the vegetable fields planted by the boat's family.

Eating the fish he hanged, Ruoyin dried two bowls of rice.

Take a nap after eating.

At night, she organized her minions to make a grill and grill fish on the terrace.

She and the fourth master didn't eat much at night, and the minions cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks early and prepared water for them to bathe.

After bathing refreshingly, Ruoyin and the fourth master sat in the houseboat and played chess, so as to pass the time.

If it weren't for the fact that there were many mosquitoes outside, they would have been playing chess on the terrace.

After a few games of chess, Ruoyin yawned a little sleepily.

Seeing this, the fourth master won her in a few rounds, and then got up and said, "Settle it." ”

Ruoyin naturally said "um", and the two of them were like old husbands and wives, blowing out the candles and lying down on their respective quilts.

They lay in the houseboat, the stars above them.

In the ears, there are the chirping of cicadas and frogs in nature.

Then she heard the fourth master ask lightly, "What do you think is romance?" ”

Ruoyin: "......"

Can you imagine a man who is proficient in Buddhism, Confucianism, Yixue, astrology, numerology, geometric arithmetic, Western painting, calligraphy, and so on.

But in front of you, like a little white, ask you what it feels like to be romantic?

Especially such an invincible emperor.

obviously understands everything, but only doesn't understand romance, this contrast is simply perfunctory to him.

So, Ruoyin fell into deep thought.

She wasn't thinking about how to perfunctory him, but she was seriously thinking about it.

After a long time, she looked at the stars outside the skylight and said softly: "Romance is to keep the New Year with the other half, travel together, camp together, watch the snow together, bathe the mandarin ducks together, spend the birthday with each other together, sleep together, watch the sunrise and sunset together, count the stars together......"

"When the gentleman goes out, dress him up and watch him leave."

"Open your eyes in the morning, secretly observe the sleeping appearance of the other party, and remember it in your heart."

"Hold each other tight in times of need."

"The occasional domineering princess hugs, and sprinkles in his arms."

"With each other's crystallization, it is best to have both children and daughters."

“......”

Ruoyin said a lot of romantic things in one breath.

In the end, she realized that she and the fourth master had so many romantic moments.

At the time, she didn't seem to find it romantic.

Looking back now, the corners of my mouth unconsciously rose.

At the end, she changed her words and said lightly: "Of course, romance is not a good thing, and this other half must be the love of life." ”

If you are with someone you don't love, even if you soak in the sea of roses every day.

I wear a ten-carat diamond ring every day.

Eat candlelight dinner every day.

That's not romantic, either.

Of course, this is just her personal thoughts.

At this moment, she remembered what the famous writer Sanmao had said.

Sanmao said: "If it doesn't please the eye, multimillionaires won't marry." If you like it, the billionaire will also marry. ”

Her husband said she always wanted to marry someone rich.

But she told her husband that if she followed him, she would just pay for what she could eat.

Her husband asked her if she ate too much, and she cautiously replied, "Not much, not much, and I can eat less in the future." ”

Then she became his husband's wife.

After listening to Ruoyin's words, the man next to the pillow was silent for a long time.

Then, she heard him ask her in a low voice, "Yinyin, are you romantic with Ye?" ”

Such a question can be understood as a superficial meaning.

But actually, it has a deeper meaning.

For example, it can be understood as "Yinyin, is Ye the love of your life?" ”

Or "Do you love me?" ”

Ruoyin smiled, and turned from lying flat to snuggling in the arms of the fourth master and lying on her side.

She replied sweetly: "Every moment with my grandfather, I feel very romantic, just like now, I sleep on my grandfather's shoulder, which is also a romantic thing." ”

The fourth master asked her so, of course she wanted to do this.

You can't always say, "Fourth master, do you know what romance is for a straight man with titanium alloy?" ”

"What's so romantic about being with you, a titanium straight man?"

If she answered so, she believed that her outcome would be miserable.

"Really?" The fourth master bowed his head and ordered, "You look at me." ”

He doesn't understand the relationship between men and women, let alone any romance.

Because since he was a few years old, he only thought about reading.

When he became an adult, he thought about scheming.

After ascending the throne, he thought about the country.

I didn't think about the relationship at all.

I don't know what's going on, but during the day I heard her say that romance refers to getting along and relationship between men and women.

He wanted to ask her what she thought romance was, and he would give her anything.

But I never thought that romance was such a simple thing.

Who knows what she said, "This other half must be the love of life".

He just asked her if it was romantic with him.

At this moment, Ruoyin raised his head and bumped into the fourth master's deep ink pupils.

She saw a hint of inquiry in those eyes.

The fourth master looked deeply at the woman in his arms, and there was an indescribable aura in those beautiful eyes.

This is a pair of sensitive and emotional eyes.

"Yinyin, almost all of the things you said, but now, it seems that only children are missing." He looked at her deeply.

Ruoyin smiled, and the meaning of the smile was unknown.

It's just that there is a touch of shyness in the eyes full of smiles.

It's the kind of shyness that comes from the heart.

Instead of being like in the Forbidden City, in order to compete for favor, pretend to be shy.

How sharp the fourth master's eyes were, he naturally saw this unusual shyness in his eyes.
