Xie Ling finally came back to his senses, but he didn't show shyness or embarrassment, he only shrugged his shoulders and pointed to the soup he had already served, "It's time to eat." ”

Chu Liuxiang smiled, he could be sure that Xie Ling could understand his off-string sound, or that the sentence he had just blurted out was already very straightforward, and Xie Ling didn't even have room to pretend not to understand.

But she still acted as if nothing had happened, as if Chu Liuxiang hadn't said anything.

If it weren't for the fact that she happened to glance sideways at the slightly reddened ear roots when she went out of the kitchen door, Chu Liuxiang would have really been surprised by her reaction.

Xie Xing and Lu Xiaofeng's master and apprentice had already sat down at the table, Lu Xiaofeng was a little surprised to see that Chu Liuxiang also came out of the kitchen, and when he saw Xie Ling's red and swollen eyes from crying, he couldn't help but want to say something to make her laugh.

"Hey, Senior Chu is also here." Lu Xiaofeng took the porridge bowl he handed over and blinked, "The seniors still owe me thirty gourds of wine, haven't you forgotten?" ”

Chu Liuxiang watched him squeeze his eyebrows at him, and suddenly understood, and said with a smile, "Naturally, I haven't forgotten." ”

"But the day you went to Jinling, Senior Hu lost to me several times." He sighed and lowered his head and blew on the steaming porridge bowl, "Is it still on your account?" ”

"I've always been nice to my friends." Chu Liuxiang also took a sip of porridge and praised sincerely: "Miss Xie's craftsmanship is no worse than that master in Tianxianglou." ”

This compliment is much more useful than the one in the kitchen just now.

There is no girl in this world who doesn't like to be praised, especially the person who praises is a character like Chu Liuxiang. It's just that for Xie Ling, Chu Liuxiang's words that can please girls are really a little unbearable.

She can't help but admit that this person is indeed very attractive, whether it is in terms of appearance and demeanor or behavior, he is impeccable and charming.

But it's just too fascinating.

That's why people don't dare to get too close, for fear of accidentally getting stuck in the mud and making some jokes.

"Xiang Shuai praises." She pursed her lips and smiled, "Coarse tea and light rice, it's hard for everyone not to dislike it." ”

"Hey, I'm different from Xiangshuai, I'm used to eating coarse tea and light rice." Jiang Xiaoyu waved his hand and looked at Chu Liuxiang, as if he had seen something, his eyes were full of inexplicable smiles, and then the words changed, "Speaking of which, I forgot to ask Xiangshuai yesterday, what is the current situation of the case?" ”

He didn't say it, Xie Ling almost forgot that there was such a thing.

Chu Liuxiang also planned to talk to them about this matter after dinner, but now that Jiang Xiaoyu asked him, the draft had already been prepared, and he was not clueless when he said it.

"It's a long story, but it's thanks to Lord Leng." He paused, then sighed again, "It's just a pity that the six doors have lost a good catcher." ”

Xie Ling was so frightened by this statement that he almost choked on a mouthful of porridge, and the hot porridge slid through his throat, although it was ironed, it was also a little uncomfortable. Seeing that her eyes were frightened and her mouth hadn't closed yet, Chu Liuxiang could barely hide her smile, "Where do you want to go, Miss Xie, I mean Lord Leng has left the six doors and set up her own door." ”

“…… That's right. She breathed a sigh of relief.

"Although the person who wants to find the organ to control the government is not the total arrest of the six doors, but it is also a little related, originally I didn't want to take care of these things involving the government, but that person has been unwilling to give up, and his hands are stained with the blood of too many innocent people, don't let him stop, I'm afraid there will be endless troubles."

He couldn't speak clearly, as if he was avoiding something, to be honest, Xie Ling didn't understand it too much, but when he raised his eyes, he saw Jiang Xiaoyu exchanging glances with Chu Liuxiang thoughtfully, and felt that his IQ was not enough.

In fact, Chu Liuxiang didn't mean to say it so vaguely, it was actually the one who asked him to help, and he kept the details of this matter in his heart.

In the final analysis, when it comes to the court, it is not so simple, there are few people who can directly order the six doors to be arrested, there are few people in the world, and the general nobles, even if the position is higher than the six doors of the total arrest, they must give them some face for the sake of having relatives and friends who commit things in the future.

Therefore, Chu Liuxiang was not particularly surprised when Jinling found out about the second prince's head, although the problem that followed was that this matter would become extremely tricky.

Chu Liuxiang has walked the rivers and lakes for many years, and there are countless large and small matters he has solved, but all of them are all rivers and lakes, and this is the first time he has faced the royal family.

Fortunately, before he could really match it, someone who had insight into this qiē earlier than him took the initiative to find the door.

Not being able to try the taste of chivalry and martial arts forbiddenness made him a little pity.

But a conversation with the crown prince of the current dynasty also shocked him.

The second prince is indeed calculating, and he sees the long-term benefits for him from the gadgets in the market, as long as he can control the person who does the agency in his hands, it will be a great help to the dead soldiers and the army he raises.

It's a pity that he missed a move, and in the end he still lost to a ten-year-old child.

Before meeting the crown prince, Chu Liuxiang always felt that among children of this age, Xie Xing and Lu Xiaofeng were already among the top smarters; After seeing it, I didn't think that the two of them were compared to the prince, after all, they were smart in different directions. But the Prince, as a ten-year-old child, knew the whole thing well and had fun with his second brother.

Although he was born in the royal family, it is not smooth to have a few hearts and livers, but the prince is obviously not as good as him alone in the hearts and livers of several brothers.

Chu Liuxiang and the cold-blooded inherited the prince's affection, so they were naturally grateful.

Even the cold-blooded decision to leave the Six Doors was pushed behind by the crown prince.

The six doors are indeed a miasma that needs to be rectified, and cold-blooded is not a character who can make any achievements in intrigue, so it is better to wait for the prince to finish this rectification and then go back to take over.

He was originally worried that the prince would also be interested in the people who did the organs, but he didn't expect that until the second prince's power was cleaned up, the prince didn't mention this stubble.

Finally, at the banquet where he was sent away, the prince, who was not drunk, said in a very mocking tone, "The second brother thinks that he has no last resort, but he can't even understand the foundation of governing the country, and he only knows how to go to the side, so I don't blame me for cleaning up thoroughly." ”

Chu Liuxiang and Cold-blooded were a little surprised, but after being surprised, they felt that only a person with such a clear mind could make the emperor immediately issue an edict to establish the crown prince after he was enlightened.

The second prince is still a lot worse than him in the end.

Chu Liuxiang naturally can't break them all and tell them all, but fortunately, Xie Ling doesn't have the habit of getting to the bottom of it, so he didn't ask more after listening.

How did he know that Xie Ling didn't know where to start at all.

However, after Xie Xing listened and drank a bowl of porridge, he asked the most important question, "Is that matter over now?" ”

Chu Liuxiang nodded, "Naturally, it's over." ”

"It's over." Xie Xing was very happy, and the next second he cried again, "...... No, am I going to private school again? ”

Lu Xiaofeng smiled very unkindly, "Yes, not only do you want to go, but you can also prepare for the Xiucai exam." ”

Xie Xing couldn't wait to climb to the other side of the table and strangle him, when he mentioned this, Xie Ling must have remembered to help him sign up for the township exam!

Although according to what the master said, it was a simple thing for him to take the test for a show, but when he thought that Xie Ling would let him go all the way after opening this head, Xie Xing couldn't wait to pretend that he couldn't even pass the test.

Chu Liuxiang knew the twists and turns in his heart best, and after walking for a month, he neglected to discipline his practice progress, so he naturally wanted to say a few words for him, "Ah Xing is still young. ”

Xie Ling glanced at him when he heard this, and after a while, he seemed to have compromised, "Yes, let's wait." ”

"Good!" Xie Xing deserves it faster than ever.

After confirming that the case had been closed, Jiang Xiaoyu took his apprentice away, and before leaving, the master and apprentice seriously said goodbye to Xie Ling.

Lu Xiaofeng said with tears in his eyes that he was going to follow his master back to see his master, and their master and apprentice had been hanging outside for long enough in the past half a year.

In fact, he didn't say that Xie Ling really couldn't see that Jiang Xiaoyu was a person with an object, after all, he was too lazy to talk, he was still a teenager at this age, and the most he did in the month he stayed in the Xie family was to play with slingshots and pitchers with two children, and when he was interested, he would run to the lake to catch fish, without any heroic demeanor.

"Then I can only wish you two a smooth journey." Xie Ling couldn't come up with any elegant parting gifts, so he could only pack them with more dry food, and finally bent down to rub Lu Xiaofeng's little face, which was getting better and better.

Lu Xiaofeng knew that she liked the dimples on her face, so she took the initiative to rub her hands a few times, "Sister, don't worry!" ”

Jiang Xiaoyu knocked on the apprentice's head, "Okay, don't be coquettish, it's not that you won't come back to Yangzhou in the future, if it weren't for your wife saying that I miss you, I wouldn't take you back." ”

Seeing that the pair of masters and apprentices were about to enter a state of mocking each other again, Xie Ling finally had a smile on his face.

She thanked Jiang Xiaoyu very sincerely for taking care of her during this time, but the other party still waved her hand and didn't care, "I'm also entrusted by others, why don't you thank Xiangshuai a few words?" ”

Xie Ling had a headache when he heard this tone full of jokes, "...... This is naturally indispensable, but I also want to thank Jiang Daxia. ”

"If you say that, I've eaten so many of your meals." Jiang Xiaoyu paused, turned his head to look at Chu Liuxiang, who was standing in the courtyard and was pestered by Xie Xing to speak, and reminded him out of kindness, "Jokes are jokes, but people like Chu Liuxiang, it's better for you to provoke less." ”

“…… I know. Xie Ling breathed a long sigh of relief, not knowing why he was explaining, "I have nothing to do with him, he has helped me a lot." ”

"A man devotes his heart and soul to helping a girl, and he doesn't want to do anything, who will believe him when he says it?"

Xie Ling thought about it, he really didn't seem to have anything to be illustrated by Chu Liuxiang, if he really wanted to say what he was trying to do, it was probably because Xie Xing could continue to be his apprentice.

But this reason is being kept a secret by tacitly, and it is naturally difficult to declare it.

So when he heard Jiang Xiaoyu's words, Xie Ling could only pull the corners of his mouth to thank him.

The Xie family has been eating for a month in a row, and now that the master and apprentice are gone, Zhu Zhu didn't take the time to come over, and when it was time for dinner, it seemed deserted again.

Xie Ling even forgot that there are not so many people eating now, and cooked too much small half pot of rice, but fortunately, the weather is still cold, and it will not be wasted because it is spoiled.

I don't know if it's because of Jiang Xiaoyu's words that seemed to be advice when he left, when he cleaned up the kitchen after eating, Xie Ling couldn't help but recall all kinds of getting along with the two since he met Chu Liuxiang.

In fact, she knows better than anyone else that it is a little different from the beginning.

After all, he had helped him so many times, and taught her what she needed most at the moment, not to mention that he would seriously comfort her when he saw her cry.

It's hard to really be light and light, and it's hard to care about it at all.

But it's not enough.

Forget it, stop it.

She pursed her lips and put the washed dishes back in their place.

Whether it's for her or Chu Liuxiang, this difference can still be avoided.
