Since ancient times, there have been differences between men and women, except for her brother Gu Yanze, it is the first time she has stayed alone with a man.

She was in a bad mood before, and when she saw him lead her away, she seemed to have something to say to her, so she accepted it with a little hesitation.

As it turned out, she guessed correctly, and her brother, whom she had only met twice, volunteered to help her...... But even so, it was really inappropriate for her to use his veil.

For both girls and men, the veil is a personal belonging.

Not to mention that they have met twice before and after, even if the relationship between the two parties is very close, there is no reason to share a veil.

Gu Qingzi thought like this, and her face tensed.

The person next to him didn't seem to have similar troubles, he squinted at the koi fish scurrying back and forth in the barrel, and his tone was as flat as if asking what the weather was like today, "Have you used it well?" ”

Gu Qingzi was stunned for a moment, realizing that he was asking about the veil, and with a flicker of his eyes, he quickly stuffed the things over.

After thinking about it, I thanked him head-on.

The man snorted, not even lifting his eyelids, obviously not taking this incident to heart.

Gu Qingzi, who was originally a big alarm, has been relieved a lot at this moment. It's best if the other party doesn't mention it, and even the embarrassment is saved, and finally this little episode is quietly turned over like this, whether it is for her or for the senior brother, it is beneficial and harmless.

Even so, she was still worried for a while. found that he really didn't care, and he didn't even mention half a word, and gradually, a smile appeared on his face.

The two of them didn't stay long by the lake, for fear that Mr. would go back to the attic before them, so they carried a small wooden barrel back to the scholarly pavilion next door.

Sure enough, Master Li Dayan had already sat down seriously behind the desk in the room, and he didn't know if it was because of the tea that eased his emotions, and his face was a lot brighter at this time.

"Your old man is back. Shen Rong carried the bucket and entered the house, followed by Gu Qingzi.

Li Zihong still remembered that he had just put on a face, and snorted from his nostrils with a shelf.

Shen Rong smiled and turned back to talk to the girl, "You might as well avoid it first, and I'll talk to Mr." ”

Gu Qingzi nodded from kindness, knowing that his senior brother was going to start helping him solve the problem. She looked at Master Yan, who still had a serious face, and whispered uneasily: "...... Senior brother just tried his best, even if he couldn't persuade Mr. ”

Shen Rong didn't argue much, and responded with a smile.

…… He has already taken care of this matter, so naturally there is no reason why he can't do it.

Don't say it's just to persuade Mr., he has been an official for more than ten years, and he has encountered countless thorny things, and there is really nothing he can't solve.

Gu Qingzi walked very lightly to the door, helping to tighten the two doors.

Li Zihong saw that the people were gone, so he let go of the literati's innocence, his eyes turned around Shen Rong, and his brows furrowed, "Look at you, such unkempt, where does you look like a powerful prime minister? ”

Shen Rong didn't care much, and replied perfunctorily, "I know, I know, you always worry so much, it's really easy to get old." ”

"You-" Li Zihong's flames, which were easy to slow down, suddenly jumped up again, and he was about to train the prime minister in front of him, but he was unguarded, and the person changed his tone very familiarly, "...... The lesson of the gentleman is that I will sort it out now. ”

In front of him, Shen Rong really tidied up the neckline, cuffs and placket, and before he could do it, he also stroked the creases back and forth several times.

Li Zihong's face looked better.

He glanced out of the room, his voice was lowered a little, "What did you all talk about?" Remembering the reason for the unpleasant trouble before, his brows furrowed deeper and deeper, "Do you say that I have taught badly? In the past few days, I have been thinking that she is a girl's family, and I have been very restrained, and I have given twelve points of patience; her foundation is too poor, she is the worst of all my students, and if she studies for half a day and stops for half a day, I don't know how many years it will take to achieve something." ”

He had almost been angry before, but then he calmed down and thought back to the time when the princess had studied very seriously, and it was not like she did not want to learn, and she suddenly made such a request to-day, perhaps because she was too harsh.

Not to mention that she is a girl, she is still a delicate princess, even among his past students, there are also those who give up because they can't bear the high load.

It's just that there are very few such people.

It was the first time Shen Rong had seen an invulnerable gentleman so entangled.

"You're mistaken, it's really not your relationship. He found a nearby pestle to sit on, and unconsciously took his finger and tapped lightly on the edge of the table, "Although Mr. is not in the officialdom, he probably knows that the officialdom is sinister, and although the harem is full of palace concubines and princesses, the various battles between women are not inferior to the intrigue in the officialdom." It is true that she is the fifth princess of the concubine, but the situation is very unfavorable for her, if she doesn't take some time to solve the affairs in the harem, I am afraid that her life will soon be gone. ”

Li Zihong was surprised, "It's so serious, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince protects her so much, I thought she was very favored in the palace." ”

The smile on Shen Rong's face faded and faded, "That's because Mr. doesn't care about the world, so he doesn't know the twists and turns." If only she had received some grace, she would not have almost drowned on the day of her death. ”

Li Zihong's expression was serious, "I heard about the five princesses and the sunset lake, and I thought it was an accident. Now that I heard you mention this stubble, it seems that someone wants to harm her. ”

Shen Rong didn't explain more, "It's better that Mr. knows less, it won't do you any good." He raised his eyes and suggested, "Sir, you might as well comply with her request, you can study whenever you want, but there is only one life." What's more, those bad things in the harem must be solved first, otherwise it will be difficult to be brilliant half-heartedly. ”

Li Zihong was refreshed this time, "I didn't know the situation before, so I was angry." If I had made it clear to me earlier, would I have been able to lose so much face in front of her?" he stood up from behind the desk, and a new worry arose in his heart, "It is said that life is precious, but if she loosens up because of this, and is focused on fighting in the harem, sooner or later her desire to study will slowly fade......

Before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by a chuckle.

"Sir, don't have to worry about that, don't you have me. ”

"You?" Li Zihong's gaze immediately fell on him, and the latter took a hand to support his head, and replied nonchalantly, "I often stay in the political hall until the middle of the night, as long as she can find an opportunity to sneak out." ”
