Chapter 28 The Unexpected

The next day was very gloomy.

Layers of dark clouds pressed down on the city of Luojing, squeezing the people like ants between the sky and the earth, unable to move.

Beside Luoshan Mountain, which was half covered by clouds and mist, there was a luxurious and large ship parked.

More than a hundred guards wrapped up the front and back of the ship tightly, and Zhao Yuge was leisurely making tea in the dimly lit cabin.

The aroma of the tea in the tea fragrance on the wind stove has just swelled, and people came on board.

Chen Zhi said outside the door: "My lord, Mr. Gao is here."

"Ah."

Zhao Yuge lowered his eyes and answered in a low voice, the footsteps gradually approached, and he opened the door.

Gao Yuanyu glanced left and right when he entered the door, and leaned forward with an uncomfortable face. Zhao Yuge did not get up, but poured the tea with his eyes down, and said politely: "Master Gao, try this king's own tea. tea."

Gao Yuanyu sat down shortly, before serving tea, he only asked with some expectation in his tone: "Is what the prince said true?"

Zhao Yuge grasped his thoughts, took a sip of tea deliberately and leisurely, and then looked up at him.

"Unexpectedly, Mr. Gao would also owe romantic debts. However, it is also thanks to Xiang Ruliu. Otherwise...Mr. Gao may not drink tea with this king in this lifetime..."

Gao Yuanyu and Zhao Yugeming have been fighting secretly for several years, so they stopped playing around, and simply asked, "Do you want me to help you out of trouble?"

There was a hint of insidiousness in Zhao Yuge's repertoire.

"Help, it is indeed a help. However, it is this king... who is helping Mr. Gao. Don't cut off the incense for you..."

"I'll see the kids first."

Zhao Yuge put down the teacup calmly and said, "That's natural."

After speaking, he slowly got up and left the cabin.

The two walked to the bow of the boat, and after a while, a flat boat came opposite, with one person paddling and a half-grown child on board.The child wore mourning on his left arm, and was dressed in a bright white round-necked gown, with a graceful figure, which was quite different from yesterday.

Zhao Yuge frowned and stared at Mi'er opposite, and said to Gao Yuan: "When I first saw him, I felt that this child looked a little like someone. Looking at it now, he is indeed a father and son whose blood is thicker than water. Not only Like, Mier is exactly the same as Master Gao."

Before Gao Yuanyu came, he didn't feel excited, but when he saw the child in front of him, and the distance was only two feet away, he couldn't wait, and his dark face turned rosy for a while.

The speed of speech was also faster than before, and said: "Tomorrow the emperor and the third division will finalize the case, and I will help you settle this matter."

Zhao Yuge raised the corners of his lips, looked at Mi'er over there and said slowly and confidently: "This matter is just a trivial matter, Master Gao knows what this king really wants."

……

Su Fufu came to Prince Duan's mansion after breakfast, thinking to see how Mi'er was doing at the mansion.

But not far from the door, he met Tanshui, he said that the prince took Mi'er out of the mansion before dawn.

Su Fufu wondered, could it be that he went to recognize the grave?
I didn't think about it any more.

Tanshui didn't come until she had dinner in Yuqing Palace.

Su Fufu got up hurriedly and said, "Have the lord and Mi'er come back?"

Tan Shui couldn't answer, so he just lowered his head and said, "My lord just asked me to pass on a message to you, saying that it's good for you to go over after eating."

Seeing that Tan Shui didn't answer, Su Fufu was puzzled, since she was already full anyway, so she glibly said to Zhao Chengyan: "Sir, you have worked hard for me all day, so let's take a rest earlier! Girl, leave."

Zhao Chengyan was afraid that she would be tired from studying in the past two days, so she would go there and study for two hours and then she would lose her temper after being overwhelmed.Then he got up and said: "Third brother is tired these days, it's embarrassing for him to be able to teach you, you just follow along and don't talk back, remember? Persevere for a few more days, it will be soon."

"I know, I know, how can I play my temper with the teacher who taught me? Don't worry."

After the chat, Su Fufu took Ash to the Shuxing Hall with Tanshui.

When I entered the door, I saw Zhao Yuge was studying ink, and Su Fufu walked up to him and asked him, "Where is Mi'er?"

While studying ink, Zhao Yuge said normally: "He has gone to Jiangnan."

"Jiangnan?"

Su Fufu was puzzled, staring at him and asked: "Are you going to Jiangnan for fun?"

"I found a reliable person for him there, and I stayed there."

For people like Zhao Yuge who are used to intrigue, this kind of lie is as true as the truth, and there is no flaw in his tone or eyes.But he was strange this time, he didn't dare to look into Su Fufu's eyes, so he could only lower his eyes and pretend to be calm.

"Then why didn't you tell me? And why did you go to Jiangnan in such a hurry?"

Zhao Yuge was afraid that she would become suspicious if he dodged for too long, so he put down the ink in his hand, glanced at her and said, "He came back to the palace yesterday and was very sad. I thought, why not let him go to a place with a better view, so that he doesn't stay in Luoyang?" Jing, seeing a familiar place inadvertently, I was worried again. As for why I didn’t tell you, I was afraid that you would be the same as yesterday, and you would cry at each other again, which would make you feel sad. Why don’t you just say goodbye and let him go away with peace of mind? Jiangnan."

Su Fufu didn't have the slightest doubt about what he said.

He just sighed and muttered to himself: "However, I still want to give him a gift."

Zhao Yuge didn't answer her words, but changed the topic and said, "There are still five days left, don't think about anything else, just concentrate on taking the exam!"

Two days later.

When the emperor Zhao Heming interrogated the witnesses in Dali Temple, the assassin retracted his confession, saying that they were the remnants of the ex-Prince Zhao Li, thinking that after Zhao Li eradicated several princes, the emperor would definitely welcome Zhao Li back to the court.

The three divisions came forward to remonstrate separately, saying that Zhao Li had hidden evil intentions, fearing that it would be a future trouble.

After Zhao Heming thought about it for another day, he decreed that Zhao Li should be killed.

The case of assassinating the prince was closed.

……

Tomorrow, the sixth day of Hexia, will be the day when the Hongru Museum will start the exam.

Today is also the last day for Su Fufu to go to Duanwang Palace.

When she went out, she saw Zhao Chengyan standing outside the gate as usual, chatting with Mu He.

Since the prince's case was concluded, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and Zhao Chengyan also returned to his usual bright smile.

"Morning Miss, Miss Ash."

"The general of the Mu family is also early."

After saying hello to Mu He, Su Fufu jumped to Zhao Chengyan.

Ash deliberately walked over slowly from behind, glanced at Mu He with confusion in his eyes, and said, "General Mu, is your wind-cold feeling better?"

"Well, the ginger soup sent by Miss Ash is very effective, and I have recovered today."

"That's good."

After Ah Shi said these three words, his face was ashamed and he turned his head to chase Su Fufu in front of him.

When everyone arrived in the study room of Yuqing Palace, Su Fufu saw an object that looked like a food box placed on the desk.

"This is... a test basket?"

"Well, it's specially prepared for you, open it and have a look, but you like it?"

Su Fufu had never seen this thing before, but this morning, her mother said that she would prepare an exam basket for her, so she asked, knowing that there was such an object, and said that after lunch, she would go to the street to pick it up, don't bother her Dear worry.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Chengyan's mind is as delicate as jade, and he has prepared everything.

The four sides of the test basket are made of hollowed out sandalwood and silk inlaid. There are four floors in total. There are pens, ink, paper and inkstones inside. Su Fufu looked closely at the inkstone. There was a picture engraved on it. She knew it was a picture of Lianke along the way.

Su Fufu's eyes are full of liking.

Zhao Chengyan at the side took out something from his arms and handed it to her.

"This is the osmanthus twig I asked for from the temple."

Su Fufu took the red velvet bag he handed over in a daze, and murmured: "Zhao Chengyan, how could you think of this? But I, who is going to take the exam tomorrow, didn't think of it at all, I just think it's good to go."

"In the future, let me think about what you can't think of. As for you, just be a little fool with peace of mind."

Su Fufu didn't hear his subtext, but was busy stuffing the red velvet bag into the handkerchief bag hanging in front of her skirt, then looked at Zhao Chengyan, and said sweetly: "Today, I will trouble Mr. Zhao for a hard day. "
