"Master, it's some of Mo Chang's friends, Mo Chang thought that Qingyuan was reading at home in addition to practicing calligraphy, wouldn't he become a nerd, so he took him to meet my friends." Li Mochang saw that Cheng Qingyuan didn't speak for a long time, and it was useless to remind him on the side, so he hurriedly stepped forward and said triumphantly beside Old Man Cheng.

Li Yi was nerve-wracked when he saw his rude son, and his appearance of not being big or small was really annoying, and he couldn't wait to stuff him back into his mother's stomach and rebuild him.

"You little rabbit, how did you talk to your master, and your etiquette has been read into the dog's belly?" If it weren't for his master's face, Li Yi would have to beat Li Mochang hard to relieve his hatred, and I don't know what memory this kid had when he was there, no matter how many times he said it, he never remembered it.

As soon as Li Mochang heard his father's words, he hurriedly shrank behind Old Man Cheng, and said with an innocent face: "Master, look at my father, he is so cruel to me in front of you, not to mention that usually, I am the most unpopular at home, and he still beats me." ”

As soon as he heard Li Mochang's nonsense, Li Yi was angry and angry, he couldn't wait to kill this rebel, and dared to give himself eye medicine in front of his master in front of him.

"Ah Yi, isn't this yours, when the teacher taught you before, did he threaten you and reprimand you every now and then, and even pursue the stupid practice of producing filial piety under the stick? You said that Chang'er's etiquette was read in the dog's belly, so where did your etiquette go again? "Old man Cheng has been educating teachers all his life, and he can't see that other people's education methods are wrong, not to mention that person is still his own student, which makes him even more displeased.

Hearing his father being reprimanded, he was very serious, and he felt a little uneasy in his heart, he just said this casually, ready to scare his father, but why was he so serious by his master, but he didn't dare to persuade him, what should he do if this fire burned himself.

"Yes, master, the student has written it down, and he will definitely control his emotions and temper well in the future, and reason with Mo Chang well." Even if Li Yi was reprimanded, he was still respectful, he had always been respectful to Old Man Cheng, even if he was scolded, he greeted him with a silent smile.

With Li Yi's assurance, Old Man Cheng no longer bothered with him, turned his face and looked at Li Mochang with kind eyebrows and said: "Chang'er, Shigong has already taught your father a lesson, and I will tell Shigong about how well you had a good time today, and what kind of people are you, and it also makes Shigong listen to it." ”

"It's some of Mo Chang's friends, Yu Xiao of Jinghe Eldest Princess's Mansion, Zhang Zhen of Langhua County Lord's Family, Wu Chengxu of Wu'an Hou Mansion, and Liu Haihua of Qi Guogong's Mansion, this time Liu Haihua lost to me in the last bet, so he took advantage of this time to invite me to drink and get together with my brothers, I thought that Qingyuan didn't have many friends, so I took him to get to know a few brothers, which is always good for Qingyuan." Li Mochang's voice was weak, he was afraid that Li Yi would hear that he had gone to drink, and he would definitely not be able to please him, even if his master could protect himself for a while, he would not be able to protect himself for the rest of his life.

"Qi State Mansion?" Listening to Li Mochang mention the Qi State Mansion, isn't the girl who the boss said a few days ago to give Qingyuan the Qi State Mansion, I heard that Qingyuan is not very happy, but when he saw the people of the Qi State Mansion, he estimated that he would be very embarrassed in his heart!

As soon as he remembered that the girl was indeed from the Qi State Mansion, Old Man Cheng couldn't help but look at Cheng Qingyuan's ears that were already slightly red, and couldn't help but feel good, this was just a meeting with the man from the Qi State Mansion, so he changed his opinion, it seems that this trip is quite worthwhile.

"Shigong, it is Brother Haihua of the Duke of Qi, the Huwei general Liu Haihua who once fought with the Marquis of Zhenguo and Tang Duan, you should know him." As soon as Li Mochang mentioned Liu Haihua, a sense of pride arose spontaneously in his heart, he admired Liu Haihua's heroism very much, and only hated that he had become a literati.

There was so much silence in this room, Li Yi naturally heard what Li Mochang said to go drinking, and secretly wrote it down in his heart, after going back, he must teach this stinky boy a good lesson.

"I know some of the person you are talking about, the Duke of Qi is a different feat, his family is a Danshu iron coupon given by Emperor Wenwu An, but it's a pity that the grandfather of the old country has gone to the west, I think it is that we are still cooking tea and discussing poetry in Xishan, I don't know much about his descendants, I only know that the eldest son of the Lord has made great achievements, and the second child is better than his Lao Tzu's talent, as for the grandchildren, they are friends of your group of young people." Liu Haihua followed the Marquis of Zhenguo with the army at the age of twelve, and he also made military exploits, but in recent years, the national power of Jin State has gradually declined, and generals like Zhenguo Marquis and Liu Haihua, even if they have blood, they are useless heroes, and they are gradually depressed and silent.

Few people know the friendship between the old Qi Guogong and the old man, and few people can imagine that the two have very different personalities, the civil and military are light, but they have become close friends, when I heard the boss mention that he talked about Qingyuan's family affairs with the second master of the Qi Guogong Mansion after drinking, he not only did not blame the boss, but also agreed for the first time, one is because the other party is the granddaughter of his best friend, and the other is that the girl was raised by the old Duchess of the country, and there is no problem to think about it, and it can be called a talented woman by those picky people in Beijing, She wouldn't be too bad on her own.

"Master, Brother Haihua is very righteous, and he also analyzed Xishan ...... for us" Li Mochang was so happy that he didn't remember what he said, and almost told Cheng Qingyuan to tell him not to say anything that had been missed.

As soon as Cheng Qingyuan heard Li Mochang's words, he immediately rushed to say: "Brother Haihua said that next time he will take me and Brother Mochang to hunt in the West Mountain, my grandson is hesitating, and I don't know how to shoot arrows and hunt, wouldn't it be a drag on them to go, and the people who went were all children of some hairpin families and meritorious nobles, and Brother Haihua and Brother Mochang wanted to let our grandfather help us get an idea, whether we should go or not, whether we should go or not, whether we want to refuse Brother Haihua." ”

"Yes, yes, I was just about to talk about it, why did Qingyuan rush to talk to me, you didn't necessarily say it better than me!" As soon as Li Mochang's words were interrupted by Cheng Qingyuan, he realized that he had almost made a big mistake, his face was scornful, and after listening to Cheng Qingyuan's explanation, he cooperated without a trace of loopholes.

However, the abnormality and disharmony between Cheng Qingyuan and Li Mochang and Li Mochang's previous face were captured by Li Yi, his son he knows best, and that expression is clearly what I have in my heart, I heard them mention Xishan, do you know that one thing, they are all seeing a group of people with status and status, and it is not strange to be able to inquire about that thing, but it is really thrilling, fortunately Qingyuan reacted quickly, otherwise he was all shaken out by the stupid boy, saying that he was stupid and he was quibbling, and he couldn't even do this thing, It's just useless.

"Why can't you, what about them are famous families, your identity is no worse than theirs, since the Liu family kid invited you, that is his affection, archery and hunting are not born to know, you can't learn slowly, you should also make friends with these people who should befriend, why stick to the old ways, as long as you resolutely don't touch those things that shouldn't be done, grandfather won't have anything to say, and your father doesn't have to care about him." Old man Cheng is very happy to see Cheng Qingyuan and Liu Haihua make friends, after all, their Chengfu and Qi Guogong Mansion are destined to be real in-laws.

Cheng Qingyuan breathed a deep sigh of relief, Xin Hao Mochang realized his problem, stopped his tongue in time, and Xin Hao's grandfather didn't have too many doubts, otherwise he didn't know how to solve this matter, he couldn't help but glance at Li Mochang with disgust, and decided that he couldn't let him say anything more.

"Yes, thank you grandfather for relieving my doubts, my grandson asked my mother to prepare two sets of riding clothes for me first, at least I have to learn how to ride a horse!" Liu Haihua also followed the words of the old man Cheng, although the matter of hunting in the West Mountain is unknown, but the lie told must find a way to complete it by itself.

Cheng Qingyuan didn't return home early, and he talked to him for so long on the side of the Siwu Courtyard, and the maids on Mrs. Cheng's side had already come over several times, and the old man Cheng saw that it was really not early, so he said: "You go to your mother's place to say goodbye first, you probably have something to say to your mother, go!" ”

"Yes, grandfather, uncle, nephew retired first." Old man Cheng Qingyuan asked him to go to his mother's yard, and he also teased him, thinking that he would also leave the courtyard of Siwu, so as not to be seen by his grandfather.

Seeing that Cheng Qingyuan was leaving, Li Yi had something to ask Cheng Qingyuan and Li Mochang, so he had to follow and say: "Teacher, the student should also go back to the house, there will be an early dynasty tomorrow, so I won't bother the teacher, and in a few days I will go to the house to accompany the teacher to play chess, boil tea and enjoy chrysanthemums, and the student will retire!" ”

"Go, go, forget all the hours when you talk, you can't delay your serious business, come back when you're free, take Ah Yi, your sister was talking to her a few days ago, Mo Chang will stay here today, Ming'er, I'll take the school and test his article, otherwise I will waste time when I come and go." Old Man Cheng was also tired, so he just sent them all away, and he was quiet and quiet, recuperating his spirits.

Hearing that the old man left Mo Chang behind, Li Yi also agreed in his heart, in front of the teacher, Mo Chang, the kid will still be a little measured, he can also learn some things, and he can get the teacher's guidance, he is even willing to leave himself together, where will he object, but it is really time to bring Ah Yi over to ask the teacher to say goodbye, there have been many things in the house recently, and Ah Yi forgot about this matter as soon as she got busy.

"Yes, the student wrote it down." Li Yi pulled Li Mochang and left the house quickly and closed the door casually and walked in the direction of Cheng Qingyuan's departure, he must ask Cheng Qingyuan if he already knew about it, although Li Mochang was partying with Cheng Qingyuan, but he didn't believe that his son could say it clearly.

Li Yi's pace was relatively fast, and he caught up with Cheng Qingyuan after a while, and Li Mochang was still walking leisurely behind him, looking like he didn't care about himself.

"Qingyuan, wait a minute, Uncle Yi has something to ask you." Li Yi hurriedly stopped and had not yet found out that Li Yi and Li Mo were Chang Qingyuan, this matter must be asked clearly, and he still has words to instruct, Guo Ran is not only a relative of the family, but also his own relative, and he will definitely go all out in his affairs.

Cheng Qingyuan was very puzzled, didn't Uncle Yi want to go home? Why did he still follow him, but he still hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, "Uncle Yi, is there something wrong with you?" ”

Li Yi looked around, and after finding that there was no other movement, he said solemnly: "Qingyuan, you tell Uncle Yi honestly, do you already know what happened on the West Mountain?" ”

"Nishiyama? What's the matter? Cheng Qingyuan was surprised at first, could it be that Uncle Yi found something, or Mo Chang missed the words again, and unconsciously looked at Li Mochang, wanting to see the answer from his face.

Li Mochang was looked at by Cheng Qingyuan like this, and immediately hurriedly cleared up the relationship and said: "This is not what I said, I still wonder how my father knew about that incident, you don't want to pull everything on me, I will never carry this big black cauldron." ”

After listening to Li Mochang's words, Cheng Qingyuan couldn't wait that he didn't know this stupid brother, why couldn't he stay in his ears for anything, how could he have such a pig teammate.

"Jing Zhaoyin handed over the matter of Xishan to the Criminal Department, today the Criminal Department Shangshu invited me to the Criminal Department to discuss the case, I only learned about this matter, after leaving the Criminal Department, I rushed to the mansion without stopping, to see if Ah Ran has returned safely, but it was all my wishful thinking, and I didn't see Ah Ran, so I endured the things in my heart and played chess with the teacher for a while." Li Yi roughly said how he knew about this matter, he was very clear, just Qingyuan's reaction and Mo Chang's words just now could be sure that the two of them knew about that matter, fortunately, there was no danger in front of the teacher before, thinking of Li Mochang's performance, he couldn't wait to go up and kick him, except for drinking and causing trouble, he couldn't understand anything.

"My nephew and Brother Chang found out tonight, Wu Chengxu of the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion heard about this matter, and I realized that something was wrong, but this matter cannot be let my grandfather know for the time being." Cheng Qingyuan saw that Li Yi already knew about the matter, even earlier than he knew, and he didn't hide it, but just said that the old man couldn't know about it, after all, Guo Ran's position in the old man's heart was different.

"I know that the teacher's biggest regret and obsession is Yin'er, and Guo Ran is Yin'er's only bloodline, what I want to tell you is also this matter, everything is important to the teacher, let him keep Aran's affairs in his heart." Li Yi's heart aches when he mentions Guo Ran, his feelings for Guo Ran are no less than Li Mochang's, and he also knows that everything is bad and auspicious, but he still doesn't want to forget hope, and feels that everything is possible.

Li Yi was not worried about Qingyuan, but Li Mochang's mouth was really worried, so he warned viciously: "Mochang, if you leak this matter again, Lao Tzu will break your legs." Even if the king of heaven and Lao Tzu comes, he can't save you, can you remember and understand clearly? ”

"Uncle Yi, don't worry, my cousin will not be in danger, he will definitely turn evil into good fortune." Cheng Qingyuan didn't want Li Yi to continue to worry, so he revealed a little bit of the news he knew, Uncle Yi is so smart, he will definitely be able to figure it out, as long as he understands it, everything will be fine.

"Who said that?"

"Liu Haihua"

"Uncle Yi, my mother is still waiting for me, and my nephew will go first." After speaking, Cheng Qingyuan gave Li Mochang a look and retreated, and walked quickly in the direction of his mother's yard, he didn't want Li Mochang to continue to stay there, otherwise with Uncle Yi's cleverness, he could effortlessly know what he wanted to know from Mo Chang's mouth, some things only need to be clicked a little bit is enough, and the less people know about this news, the better, especially when the person who saved his cousin can't let the rest of the people know.

After Li Mochang saw Cheng Qingyuan's eyes, when Cheng Qingyuan hadn't gone far, he ran away with a gust of wind, he couldn't wait to stay away from his father, he still had so many things to put aside, if he was caught by his father, wouldn't it be a disaster, he hadn't let Cheng Qingyuan leave quickly because he disliked him, but he still felt that Qingyuan was an empathetic good brother, although when he was in the courtyard of the master before, his eyes were a little fierce. But it's also an inconsequential thing, after all, I've really done something wrong!

When Li Yi reacted and asked Li Mochang, where was Li Mochang's shadow around, he had already run away from where to hide, Li Yi couldn't help but scold: This little rabbit cub, he can't do much serious things, but he slipped away quite fast, I see how long you can hide.

However, Qingyuan said that he must not be a deliberate deception to rest assured, otherwise Mo Chang's little rabbit cub would have slipped away so weakly, although Liu Haihua knew people who were well-connected and well-connected, but such news still made him a little suspicious, could it be that he knew some of the things.

Li Yi couldn't figure it out, and slowly walked towards the outside of the mansion, a carriage outside the door was ready, and Li Yi only needed to get in the car and set off.

Cheng Qingyuan arrived at the Plum Courtyard, and his mother, Mrs. Cheng, lived in the Plum Courtyard, but he didn't know that it was so late, and his mother was still waiting for him to do something, even if he was exhausted, he went in to greet his mother in good spirits. It just so happens that he still has something to discuss with his mother, and he doesn't want to delay that matter any longer, the sooner it is done, the safer it is, listening to Zhang Yu's tone, there are quite a few people who are worried about it, and he is not the best or best among them.

"The son asks his mother to say goodbye, why hasn't the mother rested yet, if there is something to let the son come over tomorrow, you have to take care of your body." Cheng Qingyuan looked at Mrs. Cheng, who was sitting in the warm pavilion leaning on a low table and still napping, and felt very uncomfortable, and blamed himself for not returning home earlier.

As soon as Mrs. Cheng heard Cheng Qingyuan's familiar voice, she suddenly lost her sleepiness, and personally helped Cheng Qingyuan, who was still kneeling, and said: "Qingyuan, Mo Yan is worried, my mother has slept a lot this afternoon, even if she doesn't wait for you, she won't be able to sleep, hurry, sit, have you drunk too much today?" ”

"Qingyi, bring the prepared lotus seed soup to the son." As soon as Mrs. Cheng mentioned that Cheng Qingyuan had drunk wine, she remembered the lotus seed soup that had been stewed for him, and hurriedly ordered the maid next to her to fetch it, for fear that Cheng Qingyuan would not be able to eat it.

"Mother, don't be busy, my son is not drunk and not hungry." Cheng Qingyuan knew that Mrs. Cheng was worried about her body, and hurriedly said that she was in good health, but she couldn't stand Mrs. Cheng's good intentions.

After a while, Qingyi served a lotus seed soup for the night, gently placed it in front of Cheng Qingyuan, and quietly retreated to the side to wait for the order.

"Drink it soon, even if you're not hungry, it's good to warm your stomach, it's getting colder and colder, and you have to put on a cloak when you go out at night, remember?" Mrs. Cheng only has such a son as Cheng Qingyuan, so she is naturally very concerned, and there is no mistake in arranging clothing, food, housing and transportation everywhere.

"Mother, I'll drink, I'll drink it." Cheng Qingyuan didn't want to waste Mrs. Cheng's fist and love for her son, so he picked up the small bowl and drank it up, and handed it to Qingyi with a drop of empty bowl.

Seeing Mrs. Cheng's smiling appearance, Cheng Qingyuan was also happy in his heart, even if he had a few more bowls of lotus seed soup, he could drink it without blinking his eyes, as long as Mrs. Cheng was happy.

"Mother, is there something you are looking for your son?" Cheng Qingyuan knew that it was so late, if Mrs. Cheng had nothing to do, she would not have called herself in such a hurry, and she had even been to her grandfather's side several times, it should be a very urgent matter, but since it was urgent, he hadn't heard his mother mention it after he had been in the yard for so long, and he couldn't guess what it was, but it should be something related to himself.

Mrs. Cheng really doesn't know how to speak, and she is to blame for this matter, she shouldn't be able to refuse and quietly respond, but what should I do if there is a conflict, Mrs. Cheng is most distressed by her son, she just wants to see her son happy, and she doesn't want to bother him with these things, but she has already done something, and the other party is still her sister, Mrs. Cheng can only persuade her son to persuade his father, as long as the son says that he doesn't like the girl in the Duke of Qi's mansion, My father-in-law and the people in my family should not force Qingyuan anymore.

"Actually, it's nothing, but it's your family business, what do you think of the girl in the Qi State Mansion?" Mrs. Cheng also took into account Qingyuan's thoughts, and decided to explore Qingyuan's tone first, if Qingyuan didn't care much about this family matter, it would be much easier for herself.

Cheng Qingyuan thought that Mrs. Cheng really just wanted to hear her opinion on Miss Liu of the Qiguo Mansion, and wanted to tell the truth what she thought in her heart, but after thinking about it, there were so many people in this courtyard, if a word was passed out, it would affect Miss Liu's reputation, and he felt that he still didn't want to say it, so he still held back the feelings in his heart.
