Chapter 81

After coming out of the teahouse, a group of people wandered around for a while. When they passed by a bookstore, Zhao Ran remembered that his master had asked him to buy two willow-style copybooks, so he wanted to drop in and buy them.

As a result, as soon as he took a step towards the bookstore, he was held down by Zhao Xing.

Zhao Ran was full of suspicion, and pushed Zhao Xing's hand away: "I'm going to buy two copybooks, what's the second brother doing?"

Zhao Xing is indeed too strange, even a little weird.

She is kind to the two younger sisters, but when she sees him, her face is cold and her eyes are very scary.

He really couldn't figure out where he provoked people.

Obviously he was fine when he accompanied Ah Yuan downstairs to buy clay figurines.

Zhao Xing looked up at the bookstore, and pressed Zhao Ran again: "What copybooks are missing?"

Even his voice was rustling like ice slag, making Zhao Ran more and more confused, but he still replied honestly: "Master asked me to buy two willow-style copybooks."

"I'll have someone send it to the palace for you later."

Zhao Ran was startled, and Pei Qingyuan couldn't understand, only Jiang Wan burst out laughing.

Zhao Xing glanced at her, she waved her hand, obediently took Pei Qingyuan's arm, and even restrained her smile.

Zhao Ran felt that he couldn't go shopping anymore.

And he felt that Zhuzhu must know something, or she had sued him for something black in front of the second brother, otherwise why did the second brother keep targeting him?
At noon, the four of them agreed to have dinner outside before going back to the Prince's Mansion. Zhao Xing had to go back to the palace half a day later. After all, Zhao Yi was recuperating from his injuries, so it was not good for him to spend the whole day outside the palace.

As a result, Zhao Ran had a bad temper and insisted on talking, especially because he didn't want to sit at the same table with Zhao Xing for dinner.

This made the two girls Jiang Wan and Pei Qingyuan dumbfounded.

Later, it was Jiang Wan who persuaded him to make peace and said that it was fine, anyway, she was also worried about her brother, so she simply went back to the county palace, and then Zhao Xing boarded the car and returned to the palace by himself, the meal was considered unfinished.

Zhao Ran brought the two girls into the door, and as soon as he passed the screen wall, he asked Jiang Wan angrily, "Did you speak ill of me to the second brother?"

Jiang Wan said no.

She can't say that Zhao Xing suspects that you bought the scriptures of talented scholars and beautiful ladies for me to read.

Having said that, Zhao Ran wanted to ask again, how to talk about this in a proper way.

And she doesn't really want to damage Zhao Ran's image in front of Pei Qingyuan.

Speaking of those scripts, it was also a matter of childhood. Zhao Ran was only eleven or twelve years old at that time. He secretly bought those scripts from outside, read them by himself, and took them to the Duke's Mansion to share with her.

When I got older, I knew it was wrong, so I never did it again.

Zhao Ran didn't believe her and asked again.

Just in time for Jiang Yuanzhan to come back from the official office, he saw Zhao Ran chasing Jiang Wan and asking what was going on. Jiang Wan didn't want to talk to him, and just hid behind Pei Qingyuan.

He frowned: "What are you doing?"

Only then did Zhao Ran withdraw his hand: "Why are you back at this hour?"

"It's the Chinese New Year, and there aren't many errands in the government office. I just took office, and the commander and colleagues won't push me too many things. Today, the commander has just appointed four of us to take turns. We don't have to go in the afternoon. "

Jiang Yuanzhan stepped closer, pulled Jiang Wan out from behind Pei Qingyuan, lowered his head and asked her: "What was your cousin doing chasing you just now? Didn't you go out with the Second Highness early in the morning?"

Before Jiang Wan could speak, Zhao Ran snorted: "I don't know where his temper came from, he was cold to me, I didn't want to see his face, so I came back first. He has already returned to the palace—"

When mentioning the palace, Zhao Ran's voice stopped abruptly.

Jiang Yuanzhan listened without changing his expression, without even wrinkling his head.

Instead, Zhao Ran frowned.

Pei Qingyuan also looked at him, and Jiang Wan also looked at him.

He looked uncomfortable: "What are you looking at me for?"

Jiang Wan thought it was impossible to pretend that this had never happened, so he coughed: "Second...he said that Zhao Yi was recovering from his injuries, and the sage was very sad, he couldn't play outside the palace all day, so he went back The palace is gone."

Jiang Yuanzhan snorted, still not paying attention, but he quickly reacted, and laughed in a neutral way: "Don't you already know that I hit you? Just ask what you want."

Zhao Ran had a rare expression on his face: "He is a prince after all. If you put on a sack and beat him up, others wouldn't be able to see it? Who in the capital has the guts to put a sack on him? You just came back to Beijing .

Except you want to vent your anger on Zhuzhu and beat him up, there is no one else. "

"I know." Jiang Yuanzhan spread his hands and asked him, "So?"

He was so upright and confident that Zhao Ran was furious: "The officials are benevolent and don't pursue you, otherwise you can have your good fruit to eat?"

But after scolding, I felt that it was meaningless.

These people are not the children of ordinary officials, are they really afraid of this?

Not to mention Jiang Yuanzhan.

If he knew how to write words for fear, he would not have dared to chase after Zhao Xing when he was a child.

Zhao Xing was a little frustrated: "Forget it, it's useless to tell you."

Jiang Yuanzhan's eyes faded: "Aye and the eldest brother both know that I reported it to them before returning to Beijing. It was Aye who told me that I could fight. Don't be too hard. I followed Aye's orders to do things. What's wrong?"

Jiang Wan touched his forehead and called him: "If you hit him, hit him. After the officials went to see his injuries last night, they only said that he deserved it, but second brother, don't do this in the future."

Jiang Yuanzhan raised his eyebrows, obviously not paying attention to her advice.

Jiang Wan smiled and went to his side. Originally, she wanted to hold his arm, but inexplicably remembered Zhao Xing's jealous look, and put her little hand behind her again, but her tone was gentle and her voice was soft. Anyway, she was acting like a baby: "The more you go Hitting him, doesn't it prove that we take this matter very seriously? Doesn't it give him face for nothing?

When I tell you not to do this in the future, I don't mean to scare anyone.

Father and brother are still in Youzhou, and you have been transferred to the military and horse department as the deputy commander. I don't know how many people are watching.

Once you enter the court and receive an errand, it will be more convenient for the censors to impeach you.

Is it possible that waiting for others to catch you in the future and submitting a book to you in front of the officials will embarrass the officials instead?
It's shameful not to punish you, but if you are really going to be punished, won't uncle and aunt get angry for you? "

It's not that Jiang Yuanzhan didn't think about these things, but that's for the future, and the beating on Zhao Yi's body right now is absolutely impossible to avoid.

He rubbed the top of Jiang Wan's head: "Understood, you have improved a lot in the year you returned to Beijing, and you will use these great principles to persuade me."

Jiang Wan smiled: "I'm going to get married next year and after that, the second brother still treats me as a child who doesn't make progress?"

When she talked about getting married, Jiang Yuanzhan's face darkened again.

Zhao Ran hurriedly smoothed things over: "Go see Aunt first, you beat someone, you have to answer back, let's go."

So all other words were suppressed, and the brothers and sisters went to Jiang's place together without saying a word.
