Uncle Nine

Chapter 89
Xia Yu frowned, looking at his perpetually calm appearance, standing there without moving for a long time.

"My lord is prettier than you, so it's useless to be jealous." He said lightly, took a sip of his tea, picked up the book at hand, and flipped through it casually, without the domineering air just now.

She pouted, rubbed her butt and sat down slowly.Only then did she realize that all the stools in the room were covered with cushions.

"Master?" She called out in a low voice.

He took a sip of his tea, without looking at her, "It's the cold weather, we only wrap up with mats, this is the rule of Prince Rui's residence."

"Thank you." She bit the rim of her cup and said lightly.

Who is Zhao Shuo, this little voice can still escape his ears.The corners of the eyes and the brows are slightly raised, and the corners of the lips are slightly outlined in a charming arc, but there is a half-smile on his face, and it is difficult to distinguish happiness and anger in his eyes.

Xia Yu has been waiting, waiting for Zhao Shuo to ask her what she did all day.

But he didn't ask anything from the beginning to the end.

She didn't understand, did he know everything, or didn't want to know anything?The red seal on the back of the hand cannot be concealed, but Zhao Shuo also pretended not to see it, he——

The wine in Prince Rui's Mansion is all good wine.Zhao Shuo didn't drink alcohol himself, but he kept a lot of royal wine in the palace.Xia Yu drank a little and rolled off to sleep.But that night, she really tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.

Worried about Shuying's injury, he couldn't figure out why Zhao Shuo didn't ask anything?

"Master?" Li Huan asked someone to tidy up the house and cleared out all the empty jugs, "Why didn't you ask me?"

Zhao Shuo put down the book in his hand, "I know more than her, so why ask?"

"It must be useful for Dongfang Xu to take her away." Li Huan said, "Maybe we can find out new news."

In the candlelight, Zhao Shuo smiled coldly, "Didn't you see the wound on her hand? Those red spots are obviously some kind of tooth marks."

Li Huan was taken aback, "My lord means—"

"She's having a hard time, so there's no need to recall it." Zhao Shuo got up and let out a long breath, "She's not the kind of woman who can be coquettish, but she's a tough one. The injuries on her body are enough to prove that Dongfang Xu has no chance to hurt her again."

"How do you know?" Li Huan was puzzled.

Zhao Shuo raised his eyebrows, and smiled meaningfully, "She is small-minded, so she holds grudges very much."

Li Huan nodded, this is the truth.

"Send Zhang Xiaoshu over tomorrow, and prepare a copy of pen, ink, paper and inkstone." Zhao Shuo ordered.

Li Huan responded, but he didn't know what Zhao Shuo wanted to do.There is already a book case in the room, isn't it cumbersome to prepare a small book case?But who can easily guess Zhao Shuo's thoughts?

When dawn was approaching, Xia Yu fell into a deep sleep.When I woke up, it was already bright, and last night was like a dream.She got up in a hurry, put on her clothes and ran outside.

It was Prince Rui's Mansion, so what Zhao Shuo said last night: Shu Ying is at Xie's house.

Also true? !
It was sunny outside, and there was a colorful parrot hanging in the corridor, and Zhao Shuo was playing with the bird.Hearing the movement behind him, Zhao Shuo didn't turn his head, "Don't be too busy, Shuying is seriously injured, the doctor said that it is not appropriate to move, and stay at Xie's house for the time being to recuperate."

With a wave of Li Huan's hand, the slaves at the side hurriedly offered Shuying's bloody clothes.

Xia Yu frowned, she hadn't spoken yet - he knew to show her the bloody clothes to prove what he said was true.The clothes were indeed worn by Shuying that day, and the blood stains on it, as well as the position of the blood hole on the chest, were all the same.

"I'll go see her." Xia Yu pursed her lips.

"I don't want to go. You won't be able to enter the gate of Xie's house if you go." Zhao Shuo put down the sunflower seeds, turned and glanced at her, "You can try to sneak in through the dog's hole, or climb the wall. But I want to remind you, The Xie family is a family of military and martial arts, so you can go in vertically and come out horizontally. You should think about it yourself!"

Xia Yu glared at him, Zhao Laojiu is indeed Zhao Laojiu, everything has been calculated.

She turned around and went back to the room.

After eating breakfast boringly, Xia Yu stared at the small desk, the corners of her mouth twitching.

Zhao Shuo swiped his pen, "The future master will teach you to read and write, so you don't have to bother others, lest you get punished again."

She rubbed her butt, which was still a little sore, without saying a word.She can't even hold a pen, so what kind of words should she write?It's better to touch two dice and have a good time.

He directly put the pen into her hand and taught her how to write.

The warm breath lingers between the ears and temples.Her heart beat faster, her palms were wet, and she felt that she was about to be unable to breathe.He was standing right behind him, leaning against her body, putting his head next to her face, teaching her very seriously.

The body temperature overlapped, the ink pen wandered on the white paper, but her thoughts wandered on his body.

She didn't know what was wrong with her, she felt light and light, and thin sweat was already oozing from her forehead.Looking down at the words on the paper, she called out in a low voice, "What is this?"

"Suo." He said, "There are tens of thousands of handwriting in the world. It doesn't matter if you don't recognize others, as long as you recognize my name."

She was startled, "Suo?"

He hooked his lips, squeezed her hand holding the pen, and wrote "rain" next to it.

"This is yours." He said, "Suo is the meaning of the beginning, and rain is the source of life."

Naturally, she couldn't understand, but she knew that what he said must have an excellent meaning.

"If it falls into the hands of Dongfang Xu, what's the first thing you think of?" He asked.

Xia Yu shook her head, "I didn't think about anything, I just wanted to go back to Prince Rui's residence."

He smiled, "Very good." After finishing speaking, he let go of his hands and straightened up, "Remember these two words today, if you can't remember, I will stab you personally."

"When can I go see Shuying?" Xia Yu pursed her lips.

"Whenever the master is in a good mood, I will take you there." Zhao Shuo walked out, "You'd better keep in mind what I said, otherwise I won't go if you get hacked a few times by the Xie family. Save you."

Xia Yu frowned, "Zhao Laojiu!"

He stopped and looked back at her.

"Then when are you in a good mood?" she asked.

Zhao Shuo smiled evilly, with a pair of charming peach blossom eyes, with a glazed color that charms all living beings, enough to make people unable to take their eyes off, "God only knows."

When the sound fell, he had already walked away.

This is a good time, the tiger fell into Zhao Shuo's hands, and now even Shuying was under control, Xia Yu sighed softly, when will he be able to count as Zhao Laojiu?
--------------

Liang Yiru was on duty today, so he naturally didn't dare to slack off, but he didn't realize it, and Dongfang Qing was also in Wenhua Hall when he went.These days, the slaves are whispering in private, saying that Mr. Dongfang Qing likes to run to the Wenhua Palace, and if he doesn't keep it all, it's because of a well-educated person in the Wenhua Palace.

Many officials in the Wenhua Palace are full of knowledge, some were transferred here because they were too pedantic, and some were too upright and unwilling to join the factions in the court.

According to the usual practice, Liang Yiru first checked the case files left yesterday, and then checked the library database of Wenhua Palace one by one.

"Master Liang." Dongfang Qing stepped forward with a smile.

Liang Yiru bowed, "What does the Oriental girl want to see today?"

"Just take a look, why, you are not welcome?" Dongfang Qing asked with a smile.

Liang Yiru shook his head, "Girl, please go ahead." He ignored her and went to do his own thing.

Dongfang Qing picked up a book at random, sat in Liang Yiru's seat, and watched him work very seriously.The scholarly spirit remains unchanged, but there is a sense of uprightness and persistence in his eyebrows and eyes.

She often walks around here, if Liang Yiru really has the heart, she doesn't have to stay here and continue to take on idle jobs.

But Liang Yiru, it seems that his heart is not here, and even his ambition is not here.

He ignored her and ignored her.

"What are the local conditions and customs in Daizhou Prefecture?" Dongfang Qing asked suddenly.

Liang Yiru paused for a moment, did not look at her, and said calmly, "Daizhou's capital is located in a remote place, and there is nothing to say."

"Seeing that you are full of poems and books, you must be a good place for outstanding individuals." Dongfang Qing smiled.

He thought of Xia Yu, and couldn't help but lower his head and smile, "It's nothing good to have troublesome people in the backcountry." Even though he said that, there was a little smile in his tone.

Dongfang Qing was startled, she rarely saw him smile.

The usual Liang Yiru is serious, no matter what he does, he is meticulous.He rarely smiles, rarely looks at anyone, and rarely pays attention to every move outside.

He came here, it seemed that he just came, as if he had no intention of staying for a long time at all.

So Dongfang Qing was very surprised, since he didn't intend to serve, why did he stay.She checked Liang Yiru's background in private, and his father was the magistrate of Daizhou, so he must disdain such an idle job in Beijing.

So what did Liang Yiru intend to do when he stayed?
If he has any purpose, what can he do in this Wenhua Palace?
Nothing can be done.

She didn't understand, really didn't understand, the indifferent nature of the calm and indifferent man in front of her from beginning to end.

"Have you ever been married?" Dongfang Qing asked.

Liang Yiru was startled, did not answer, turned around and went to write records.There are some things that should not be answered, so there is no need to answer them.If someone is not married, how can he marry?Who should I marry?

Dongfang Qing stood up and walked towards him slowly, "You—"

Before she could speak, there were footsteps outside quickly approaching from far to near, "Yiru."

Liang Yiru walked quickly towards the door, Shen Hao was dressed in an official uniform, and stepped into the gate of Wenhua Hall with a smile, "My good brother, how are you doing now?"

"Very good." Liang Yiru gave a rare smile, "Brother Shen is now promoted steadily, congratulations."

"I have been transferred from the Ministry of Military Affairs, and now I am working in the Ministry of Punishment." Shen Hao patted Liang Yiru's hand, "I have today because of your great kindness and virtue, and I dare not forget it."

Liang Yiru shook his head, "It's the result of your own hard work. I just met by chance and offered a helping hand. There is no kindness."

The two entered the door while talking, Shen Hao was slightly taken aback, seeing Dongfang Qing present, hesitated immediately, "This is—"

"Oriental girl." Liang introduced Julian, without saying much.

After all, Dongfang Qing is the adopted daughter of Dongfang Yue, so any contact with Dongfang Yue will be harmful but not beneficial.What's more, I pretended to be stupid and deceived Dongfang Yue back then. If Dongfang Yue knew about it, I'm afraid it would be a disaster.

Shen Hao nodded politely.

Dongfang Qing just glanced at him, and then said, "I still have something to do, so I'll leave the book here and leave."

After speaking, leave.

Shen Hao didn't say a word, just smiled and said Confucianism to Liang, "Confucianism is a good fortune, and I am on duty in the Wenhua Palace, and I have such a gentle and respectful woman to accompany me."

Liang Yiru didn't speak, some things became more and more smeared, so it's better to deal with them indifferently.

When looking at Shen Hao, Liang Yiru's eyes were slightly hurt.
