Meng Xuanzheyi has stayed in Jianmen since the beginning of the Zhao Shu War and has never returned. At first, it was to fight a war and defend Shu, but after Shu made peace with the Northern Song Dynasty, he also stayed here until the situation was completely stabilized. Now he wanted to go back to see his father, but he received the news that the princess had given birth. The most important thing was that the people he stayed in Jincheng quietly delivered him the news that his father was ready to pass on the throne of the prince to this newborn son. Now he didn't know what to do.

Zhao Kuangyin still played tricks on them. He ordered Concubine Xu to be directly turned into the princess of Shu, from a side room to the main room, and it was a very favored main room that was about to give birth, but he didn't say a word about him, the son-in-law born to his father, as if he didn't know. Isn't that what makes them fight? But this scheming is just right, so that both of them are stuck in their throats, unable to swallow, unable to spit out, and don't know what to do.

Meng Xuanzhe has been cultivated as the heir of the royal family since he was a child. In the royal families of various countries in the past dynasties, basically none of the abolished princes who were pried off had a good end. So he has no way out, if he can't inherit the throne, there is only a dead end in front of him. But the situation in Houshu is too complicated. He can't live like a transparent person and let everyone step on him, nor can he be too sharp and eye-catching.

He hid all his advantages, and made a way out of life under the nose of the treacherous and cunning Li Hao, and finally succeeded, finally executed him, and finally could raise his eyebrows and return to his original appearance. But now these things that I have been working for are about to become a newborn child? Have you been making wedding dresses for people? Why? The abolished prince has no good end, will the son of the son who was pried off have a good end? Meng Xuanzhe didn't hold out any hope.

The green mountains outside the Sword Gate are wrapped in a layer of green, and they look particularly quiet under the blue sky. Meng Xuanzhe only brought two entourages, led a white horse, and walked forward, and he didn't know how far he had gone.

"The leaves are pale, and the white dew is frost. The so-called Iraqi people are ...... on the water side"

Inside a low wall, a tactful and beautiful female voice came out.

"The leaves are pale, and the white dew is frost. The so-called Iraqi people are ...... on the water side"

A childish children's voice followed.

Meng Xuanzhe couldn't help but stop and listen. It seems that a female master is teaching a group of children to read. Since the stabilization of Shudi, under the initiative of Princess Xu, several women's schools have appeared in Shudi, and there are also some talented women who teach under the protection of the official family.

Since this is a new thing, the common people were still quite resistant to it at first, and only some poor children who could not afford to read were willing to go to the schools designated by the government to listen to these free lectures with the idea that it was better to have classes than no ones to teach. Later, everyone found out that these female masters were very patient with the children, and the children could also be taken care of very well in the school, and some people told the classic readings really well. In addition, female masters generally have good manners, are weak and decent, and have some unique advantages in teaching girls. Soon, some dignitaries began to ask their daughters to teach their young children to read.

As for some of the chastity issues raised by the apologists, it is not a problem. The female teachers who taught public schools only taught children under the age of 10, and taught them in places designated by the government. For a female master who teaches private learning, the official family will also make special arrangements for an entourage, on the one hand, to protect the female master, and on the other hand, to assist her. Everything is done by the officials, but it also saves a lot of trouble. Nowadays in Shudi, it is a particularly decent and honorable thing for women to be able to teach and teach female masters. Every family estimates that girls are encouraged to study more, and they can also be female masters and glorify their ancestors in the future.

After Meng Xuanzhe and Xu Rui cooperated on Li Hao, they didn't contact each other again. In his opinion, it would be better for a woman to do such an edifying thing than to stay in the boudoir and do nothing all day. So in this matter, he admires Xu Rui's approach.

At this moment, he listened to the sound of reading inside, and felt that his irritable mood for days had inexplicably calmed down a lot. Meng Xuanzhe saw a bluestone under a willow tree not far away, so he stood up and looked inside. Just at this glance, he was as if he had been struck by lightning suddenly, his mouth was stammering, his eyes were invisible, and he couldn't speak.

"Your Highness? Your Highness? What's wrong with you? The attendant noticed that his master's expression was wrong, and hurriedly asked. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince didn't let them call him "Prince", and they didn't want to call him "Young Master" or something like that, so they unanimously called him "Your Highness".

Meng Xuanzhe held his breath and concentrated for a while before coming back to his senses, lowered his head and looked at the ground, still in a trance.

The two entourages had never seen their master like this, and their hearts suddenly tightened, and they hurriedly asked, "Your Highness, what happened?" "There was one who was in a hurry, and was ready to draw his saber and break in.

"Don't be abrupt!" Meng Xuanzhe hurriedly stopped the impulsive guy, pointed to one of them and ordered, "You go and ask what the origin of this female master here is, and then quickly return to me." ”

"Yes!" The man immediately took the command and left. Meng Xuanzhe sat on the bluestone he had just stepped on, quietly distracted. The entourage who remained did not dare to ask questions, and stood quietly aside, looking around vigilantly.

After a while, the departing attendant returned, followed by an old man in a dark blue coarse cloth shirt.

"Your Highness, the lady inside this wall is called Lime, and she came here about a month ago. This is Zhao Shuming, the lieutenant here, and I also brought it to you. What do you have, just ask him. "The entourage reported responsibly.

"Lao Er, see Your Highness!" The lieutenant could tell that the young man in front of him was from the army, and judging from his dress, he must be a person of noble status. Even his entourage doesn't look like ordinary soldiers. Lao Li has lived for dozens of years, and he still has this idea. Since the other party didn't find out his identity, he probably didn't want to say it, and he didn't need to be bored, just answer some questions for him dutifully. The attendant called this man "Your Highness", and called him "Your Highness" himself.

"Is that female master inside really just here a month ago?" Meng Xuanzhe asked, his handsome face like a beautiful sculpture.

"Yes. Lao Er didn't know where she came from. But she has an identity seal issued by the official family, and since she is willing to come to our small place to teach, Lao Er naturally can't ask for it. So it was allowed right away. I didn't expect her to teach really well. The old chief was very happy when he talked about it, and touched his goatee and laughed.

There was no one in the village who could read or write, and the girl's arrival was like pie in the sky. Although I knew that she would leave sooner or later, it would be good to have someone to teach the children something. He has even been thinking about finding a good mother-in-law for this girl recently, so that she can live here. But seeing the young man in front of him, he silently swallowed this thought back into his stomach.

"Her name is Lime?" Meng Xuanzhe continued to ask.

"Yes, it's called Xu Qinglime, a Shudu person. Lao Er looked like a girl from a family with a head and a face. I just didn't know why I came here. ”

"Did she come here alone?"

"It's not. There were two guards who guarded her all the time. While she was lecturing, the two guards stood guard outside the door. Their martial arts are very strong, and there are scoundrels in the village who have offended them, and they will never dare to come nonsense after being beaten at a moment. "The old man was angry when he talked about this. Those bastards are too short-sighted, why don't you want to think about what to do if you scare the girls away from the children in the village? It's impossible for me to just stare at this one thing all day long and not do anything else. Fortunately, the girl didn't have the same knowledge as them.

"Oh! Okay, I got it. Meng Xuanzhe nodded and motioned for the lieutenant chief to retreat.

The old lieutenant was nervous when he saw the big man, and when he saw that he could go, he quickly said goodbye and left. It's hilarious to think about what I thought before. Such a good girl, even if she is separated from her family, now she is alone, and she is still a female master! Could it be that these villagers in their own village have the qualifications to think about it? Look at this, aren't there big people asking about her?

Meng Xuanzhe, who stayed in place, thought of the scene when he saw her for the first time, and he accidentally glimpsed the scene of her bathing at that time, but no one knew about it except himself. As long as she doesn't say it, she won't ruin her reputation, and she really doesn't need to keep it in her heart for so long. It's just that he really thinks about her from time to time. Just now, I saw that she was teaching those children again, and it was a completely different temperament. He felt his heart gripped again. He suddenly felt that even if his father really wanted to pass the throne to his younger brother, it was actually not something unacceptable. As long as he has her by his side for the rest of his life, it's fine.

Meng Xuanzhe's two entourages didn't dare to speak when they saw their master's face change back and forth. Meng Xuanzhe sorted out his mood and stood quietly outside the low wall. When he heard that the children had gone home after the lessons were finished, he paced in.

"The leaves are pale, and the white dew is frost. The so-called Iraqi people are on the water side. This passage was explained so beautifully to the children just now that even I yearn for it! ”

Lime saw a man walk in, and two of her guards tried to stop her, but she waved her hand to stop her.

"Childe just heard me lecture?"

Lime raised her apricot eyes and looked at the man in front of her steadily. Although the other party does not have anything on the surface that can confirm his identity, judging from the style of the other party's body, he is definitely not an ordinary man.

"Yes. I was passing by, but I didn't expect to hear it. Meng Xuanzhe did not hide it, but generously admitted it. If he wants to have fellowship with her, he naturally has to be honest with her.

"Since you've listened, can you give me some advice? Maybe I could improve it. "Lime's attitude is also down-to-earth and generous.

"I don't dare to say anything, I do have some ideas that I want to discuss with the girl again." Meng Xuanzhe's eyes were smiling, so warm that he seemed to be able to melt the ice floe.

The two men talked happily until the sun was about to set.

During this period, one of Meng Xuanzhe's entourage tried to remind him that it was time to go back several times, but was watched by another entourage.

"Don't you see that our Highness's eyes are shining and his spirits are bright? If you ruin his good deeds, don't blame me for not reminding you. He's going to be angry. ”

"Don't say it, I really haven't seen His Highness like this. Even in the face of those beautiful concubines, His Royal Highness has never been like this. What is the matter, Your Highness? ”

"What's wrong? You can't even see that? Our Highness has taken a fancy to this girl! Sure enough, there has never been a woman, and I can't understand such an obvious thing. ”

"You're poking me in the sore spot again! I'll marry Xiangxiang when I go back, she must still be waiting for me! ”

"Pull it down! Can you take what you said when you were six years old? Besides, after your family moved, you lost contact with other girls, why are people still waiting for you? I guess I've been married a long time ago, right? ”

"You...... If you say that again, we'll be friends! Hum! ”

"Humph!"

When the two entourages were making trouble and ignoring anyone, suddenly Meng Xuanzhe's clear voice sounded in their ears.

"What are you two talking about?"

"I didn't ...... Didn't say anything! What do you command? The two hurriedly put aside their personal emotions and went to work.

"Let's go back!" Meng Xuanzhe wasn't interested in paying attention to them, he was also immersed in the joy of talking to the beautiful woman just now! I don't have time to deal with these two naïve ghosts.

"Yes!" The attendant hastened to lead his white horse.

Meng Xuanzhe held the reins of the horse and stood for a while, he was really reluctant to leave, but looking at the weather, he had to go, otherwise this girl would be cocked. After thinking about it, Meng Xuanzhe took out a crystal clear mutton fat jade pendant from his waist, returned to the lime, and put it in her hand.

"This is what my mother left me, and I give it to you, hoping that you will wear it with you in the future." Meng Xuanzhe looked at the lime's eyes, as if he had a lot to say. But in the end, this was the only sentence that came out.

"I know, I'll take care of it." After some conversation, Lime also liked the man in front of him. She has been running out for a long time in order to escape the patriarch's interference in her marriage. If you go back like this, you might have to be restrained by them. But if you bring it back yourself, it's different. They won't be able to do anything to themselves then.

I don't know what those old-fashioned people think. The most unreliable relationship in the world is the emperor's favor, is it not good? They just sent their cousin into the palace, and they still wanted to send themselves in, and let the two sisters serve the same husband, aren't they afraid that their sisters will turn against each other? I won't listen to their arrangement!

However, the matter of this female master advocated by my sister is really good, and it has brought great convenience to me walking outside! At least you don't have to dress as a man, and you're not afraid of other people's gossip. As long as she lectures, the local government will provide protection for herself, so she doesn't want to be too embarrassed!

The man I met today looks really good! As soon as he stood there, the aura emanating from his body was intriguing, not to mention that his talent was really good! But don't worry, contact a few more times.

Lime watched Meng Xuanzhe ride away on a white horse, and a sweet smile appeared on his face.

Meng Xuanzhe had secretly sent someone to investigate Xu Rui's palace back then, wanting to know who the girl who made him feel excited. It's a pity that the girl has already left, and he only found out that Xu Rui's cousin had lived in her palace for a while, but he couldn't be sure if it was. It's not easy for him to make too many moves to startle the snake. Now that he finally saw Lime, he had a feeling of being out of the world. Luckily, they finally met. This probably shows that there is really a fate between them! Meng Xuanzhe imagined the appearance of the lime and smiled heartily.

The two attendants had goosebumps when they looked at it. Is this still their cold highness? There is such a side!

"Your Highness is back? Are you tired? The concubine body made a rose ice dew for you, you can taste it and quench your thirst! As soon as Xiaomei and the others heard that His Highness was back, they prepared things to greet them.

After getting along for so long, how could she not see that His Royal Highness didn't like her sisters at all? But there was no one else around him, so they kept hoping that he would stay by his side, hoping that he would look at them more.

They worked hard to study all kinds of delicacies and make all kinds of cute things, such as sachets and so on, hoping to get his favor. But every time he praised them, he didn't take these things to heart. But today, Xiaomei caught a smile on Meng Xuanzhe's face that was not perceptible. Her heart couldn't help but tighten.

"Hmm!" Meng Xuanzhe didn't look at it, so he took the ice porcelain teacup handed by Xiaomei and drank it.

"It's delicious! Thank you! Meng Xuanzhe responded politely as usual.

"Your Highness, don't be polite, this is what we should do." Xiaomei hid the loss in her heart, and couldn't help asking, "Your Highness is very happy to come back this time, did you encounter anything particularly pleasant?" ”

"Hmmm! By the way, Xiaomei, a few of you are not small, do you really want to find a snuggler? Thinking of the fact that he asked them to leave last time and they were going to commit suicide, Meng Xuanzhe didn't dare to drive them away directly this time. But it's really not suitable to keep them around me, so I had to ask.

And it really came! Although they knew that sooner or later there would be such a day, they still hoped that this day would not come. But now it's useless no matter what they think. What should have come is still coming. In this case, he can no longer embarrass his benefactor.

"Yes! It's just that we sisters don't know which people are good and which ones are bad. Your Highness helps us check the gates! As long as you think it is suitable for us, we are willing. Xiaomei said, and then turned her eyes to Xiao Lu, Xiao Ju, Xiao Hong, Xiao Yu and others standing behind her.

"Yes, we all listen to Your Highness." Several people hurriedly nodded. The few of them had already discussed that if His Highness really didn't need them anymore, they would definitely not be a burden to him.

"Do you really think so?" Meng Xuanzhe felt a little strange that they agreed so quickly. They weren't like that before.

"That's what we think, Your Highness. We're both old, I'm almost nineteen years old, and I want a good family. Xiaomei hurriedly said. Several others nodded their heads.

"Well, in that case, I'll keep an eye on you. Don't worry, I'm sure I'm going to pick a very reliable person. Meng Xuanzhe's heart was so happy that he agreed. 166 Reading Network
