Chapter 102: The Fish That Didn't Take the Bait
When Ouyang Han arrived in the back garden, Cao Tao was no longer enjoying tea, but sitting on a chair, reading a book under the tree. After hearing the sound of hurried footsteps www.biquge.info he raised his head and smiled faintly in the direction of the courtyard gate.
Ouyang Han couldn't help but laugh along, shaking the folding fan, and the son's frame was sufficient, "It seems that our Cao Imperial Chef is quite leisurely?" ”
"Han Gongzi's Creek Garden is like a fairyland," Cao Tao motioned to Ouyang Han to drag a bamboo chair over to sit, "Flowers and trees, herbs, rockery ancient benches, and flowing water and clear ponds don't make people feel comfortable, and the old man just can't be leisurely." ”
"As long as Master Cao thinks it's good, it's good!" As he spoke, his eyes swept towards Cao Tao with great interest.
Cao Tao was taken aback, turned his head and asked in surprise, "I don't know what is the matter with Gongzi Han looking for the old man?"
The faint light in Ouyang Han's eyes flickered, and the folding fan stopped shaking for a long time before it swayed again, and his smile gradually faded, "I want to ask about my sister......"
As soon as Ouyang Han asked, Cao Tao immediately let out an "oh", and seemed to react to what he asked, "I don't know much about this matter, it's just that a few days ago, the Lord of Xuan suddenly drove to Xiyuan and brought a scholar who was covered in injuries. ”
After being silent for a long time, Ouyang Han's gaze froze slightly, "Scholar? Now that the scientific expedition is imminent, which scholar will go to the mountains to play with nothing to do? ”
Cao Tao stared at Ouyang Han, and didn't remind him that he couldn't bear it, and said slowly: "Lord Xuan should have returned to Beijing as originally planned, but why did he stay for more than a month for no reason, there may be something hidden during this period."
Ouyang Han was stunned, but as long as he looked sideways at Cao Tao's eyes, he immediately understood his intentions, "I asked her, but my sister said that she delayed the original trip because she encountered some things on the road, but she didn't mention it to me about the scholar." ”
As he spoke, Ouyang Han's dark and deep eyes slowly showed a trace of unnoticed doubt.
"You're just here to ask about these things?" Cao Tao didn't care, he was still happy.
Ouyang Han's face smiled again, "Of course it's not just that. ”
Cao Tao sat on the chair, supported himself with one hand, and asked lightly: "Then may I ask what else does Han Gongzi do?"
Ouyang Han's eyebrows were slight, his black crystal-like eyes rolled slightly, and he said with a smile: "I don't know how your two fat apprentices have learned?"
Hearing Ouyang Han talk about his "high apprentice", Cao Tao frowned slightly, but his tone was still gentle, "After they came here, you also passed back and forth in Xiyuan a few times. Don't you know, one of them is good at eating and sleeping, and the other is rotten wood that cannot be carved. It's Lu Yatou's ingenuity, but it's just ...... Alas, the old man is not that blessed. ”
Ouyang Han heard this, and smiled lightly, "It is said that famous teachers produce high apprentices, but now it seems that this sentence is not right!" Saying that, Ouyang Han also deliberately glanced at Cao Tao, who unconsciously avoided his gaze.
Cao Tao was a little disappointed in his heart, but he didn't show anything on his face, and returned to the original topic, "Master Su is the head of Jingyue Mansion, and it's yours again...... Belch...... If you have any questions, you can just ask him. ”
Although the words are euphemistic, the meaning is very clear.
Ouyang Han groaned for a while, but did not leave immediately, but glanced at Cao Tao deeply, although he did not speak, the meaning in his eyes was very clear, my sister didn't let me care about this matter.
She doesn't let you take care of it, so you don't care? Didn't you sneak here to investigate? Cao Tao showed a suspicious expression. Deceive, and don't believe it when you are killed.
Ouyang Han "snapped" and closed the fan, glaring at Cao Tao, "This is the territory of this son, if you let me go, wouldn't it seem that I am too impersonal." It's been a long time since I've been here, so go and sit in the Star Pavilion! ”
"You." Cao Tao stretched the end of the tone a little, in fact, he also had this intention, but he was unexpectedly misunderstood by Ouyang Han.
Ouyang Han couldn't care about maintaining the image of his royal son at this time, and rolled his eyes and shook his head, indicating that he didn't believe it, he didn't believe it.
Cao Tao's first reaction was to refute, but after saying the word "I ......", he suddenly found that he couldn't find a rebuttal, and after thinking about it carefully, he was stunned. Well, he admits that he did imagine that the little ancestor gave the eviction order. Seeing that Ouyang Han didn't take the bait at all, he hurriedly bowed down to make amends and made a gesture of please.
"Come on, give all the things here to my son and move them to Wangxing Pavilion."
Of course, the servants who were waiting for the summons outside knew that Ouyang Han was the master of this garden, and as for this retired cook, it was just a homeless man who was kindly taken in by Gongzi. Immediately, everyone's request for Ouyang Han was not discounted at all, and he immediately complied with it, now Cao Tao was really dumbfounded, so he left the chair and the book.
Cao Tao stood in place for a long time, and finally sighed, and didn't dare to follow him in the end.
knows that Ouyang Xiaowang is not pretentious when he does things, and even if he is in a hurry, he has no room at all, but after all, he has not seen it with his own eyes, Cao Tao still doesn't want to believe it, because Xiao Hanhan has always been very good to himself.
Now it seems that no one can provoke Ouyang Han, because you don't know when the gentle and elegant will "bite" you and catch you off guard.
Jingwang Mansion, Flower Hall.
King Kang was busy saying hello to Ouyang Rong and Ouyang Ye and his son in the front hall, while Duan Zhixi was chatting with the county lord Ouyang Xuan in the flower hall.
After greetings, the county lord took the initiative to tell her good sister about the interesting things she encountered during her travels, and as she talked, she found that Duan Zhixi didn't seem to have any intention of listening to her at all, and her eyes kept staring at the movement outside.
Lord Xuan has always been smart, how could he not see why Duan Zhixi was a little absent-minded, and said gently at the moment: "I heard that Chief Manager Chu said that he went out with Liancheng early in the morning."
Duan Zhixi's lips floated with a faint smile that was imperceptible, it was better for him not to be there in this kind of thing, otherwise he would be disappointed when he saw that he was also here?
Surprised, Lord Xuan was slightly skeptical, but after thinking about it carefully, his heart suddenly moved, "If it weren't for caring about me, you wouldn't have come over, right?" ”
Duan Zhixi's heart was stirring, could it be?
Perhaps, it would be good to look at him from afar. Struggling to control the expression on his face, Duan Zhixi said in a low voice, "I don't know!"
At the same time, the corners of Lord Xuan's eyes also secretly swept out of the window.
Zhixi, I'm sorry, I know you resent your brother, in fact, you should resent me too!
Zi Yan, who came in from outside, saw the expressions of the two young ladies, froze her steps, and a look of hesitation flashed between her eyebrows, but it was only an instant, and she immediately regained her calm, "The hibiscus in the yard is slowly blooming, and the slave wants to transplant a few plants back, I don't know if the county lord is reluctant?" ”
Zi Yan was obviously relieving the somewhat oppressive atmosphere.
