The east wing of the backyard of the Li house.

The host, Li Jing, is entertaining guests.

This is the most spacious room in the house, and it used to be occupied by two servants, and some miscellaneous items.

After Li Jing returned, the Chen family placed this place, and it became Li Jing's reception room and study.

The fragrance of ink in the room is very strong, and the paintings and calligraphy on the four walls are all new works by Li Jing.

is not a famous person, but the person who is a little less talented, he has to kneel when he looks at him.

At this time, the two of them sat upright on the couch, their arms rose and fell on the low table in the middle, making a crisp sound, no need to ask, the two were playing chess.

"I haven't seen him for many years, and the virtuous brother has deep chess strength, and it is difficult for him to be a brother and enemy." Li Jing gave off and laughed softly.

Anyone who understands the speaking habits of the people at this time will understand at that time that this is simply a declaration of victory.

There is a person opposite, Tsing Yi Bo belt, good looking, don't look at people in their thirties, still good-looking, plus a gentle and elegant bookish atmosphere, she is the big nemesis of the legendary Qinglou woman.

Li Jing's appearance is not bad, but compared with others, he can only hide an old face.

It's just that at this moment, the virtuous brother opposite Li Jing was wrapped in two layers of cloaks, and he was still trembling slightly, like a shaking zongzi standing there, just like this, there is no need to mention any demeanor and appearance.

There is no way, in the winter, Li Jing's house can't afford to burn a carbon fire, and the house is naturally very cold.

Hearing this, he snorted twice, contemplated for a long time, and then opened his mouth.

The voice is clear, and it matches his appearance very well.

Speaking of words, he was very out of tune, "Brother Li's chess strength was the crown in the house back then." At that time, I wanted to play a few games with Brother Li, but unfortunately Brother Li's vision was too high. Can't look down on me...... Hey, don't want years later. But if you can taste your long-cherished wish and want me to admit defeat, it won't work. ”

Li Jing was embarrassed at the time, in fact, until now, he didn't know what this person wanted to do.

If you want to say friends, it's not counted, because you've never had a deep friendship, and if you want to say it's okay, you can't say that. After all, it's a classmate.

This is to see what he looks like? It's not such a big feud, is it?

Let's just say that when he was in Taixue, he was too sharp, which caused people to be jealous, but in addition to Li Yuan's careful eyes, could anyone come to see him joke after many years?

And it doesn't look like a ......

If you want to say that someone is here, Li Jing feels that it is even more wrong, Dr. Taichang Temple, even if Li Jing is more conceited, he will not feel that anyone can still value him to such a point now, and let a six-rank court official come to him at home.

If there really is a character like that. It would be impossible to send a slave over and deliver an invitation, or simply send a sentence or two.

Moreover, no one on the other side can easily move.

Don't look at this official position is not too high. But he is the son of the big lord Wei, and his ancestors are Wei Wei and Western Wei. During the Northern Zhou Dynasty, the Great Hermit who came to the Ten Conquests, and his younger brother Wei Xiaokuan was an official to the Shangzhu State of the Northern Zhou Dynasty.

Merriam-Webster. There is no doubt that he is also the leader of the Kansai Lords.

And this is the son of Wei's concubine, who had a miserable life in Taixue back then. was able to enter Taixue and study, thanks to his maternal family, the Yuan family, and the old man was naturally not a branch, and there was no blood relationship.

It's just that I didn't expect that the miserable and miserable black boy at the beginning would become such a look like Pan An, and his speech and demeanor were casual and free, because of this, his words were also very difficult for Li Jing to deal with.

Li Jing feels that he has not returned to his hometown of Chang'an for many years, and it is really difficult to explain what things are wrong with people.

This one said a word, stared at the chessboard for a while, and saw that Li Jing had not fallen for a long time, thinking that his unexpected move really stumped the other party, and he couldn't help but be a little proud.

raised his head and glanced at Li Jing, and saw Li Jing staring at him with a look of distraction, he was immediately stunned, and then subconsciously touched his face, and his eyebrows gradually stood up.

said lightly, "If Brother Li is a good man, will the younger brother find you two children later?" ”

Obviously, he has encountered a lot of such things, and he is too lazy to say anything else, so he will tell you directly, the little brother is very normal and not easy to mess with, so let's die as soon as possible.

Li Jing was shocked, his face immediately turned red, and then it turned white again, over the years, no matter how unlucky he was, this was the first time someone told him in person that his sexual orientation was not normal.

After being lucky, he gritted his teeth and said, "Although Li Jing can't be called a gentleman, he doesn't get involved in this way, so the virtuous brother should keep your child." ”

This squinted eye, seeing that Li Jing did not seem to be a fake, immediately turned his anger into joy, opened a row of small white teeth, smiled like a spring flower, and then tightened his cloak again, and began to complain to Li Jing.

"Brother Li is angry, I won't tell you that many of my younger brother's troubles over the years have arisen because of his appearance, and he will inevitably ...... Alas, this is the kind of appearance that was brought out of the mother's womb, and it can't be changed, if it can be changed, the little brother would have changed it a long time ago, even if he reincarnated, the little brother is willing to do it now......"

Li Jing: "......"

"In Taichang Temple, you always ask me to read the sacrificial text, read the greetings or something, you say that there are many thoughtful looks, why do you keep looking for me?"

"Some time ago, the Acting King's Mansion asked me to go to the Acting King to study, and the younger brother's own talent is understood by himself, isn't His Highness still trying to find someone who is pleasing to the eye to study with?"

"And the last time I entered the palace, I just went to Xiaoxi, and I was almost pulled away by the women in the palace...... Fortunately, the younger brother has some skills and walked over the wall, otherwise, the head will not be guaranteed. ”

Speaking of this, it may be that the horror of the day resurfaced in his mind, and he couldn't help but shiver, and his face also showed a look of horror.

Li Jing was also dumbfounded when he heard it, such a wonderful life, Li Jing could never have dreamed of it.

This one seems to have to give some examples to tell Li Jing how troubled he is.

Li Jing couldn't stand it a little, so he dropped his hand and said, "Play chess, play chess." ”

This one glanced at the chessboard, and no longer cared about the outcome of the game, grabbed a few chess pieces, sprinkled them on the chessboard, and simply admitted defeat.

Li Jing also breathed a sigh of relief, the way to play chess lies in sincerity and righteousness, he has now been disturbed by this person, and if he continues to play, he is really not sure that he can win.

And the one on the other side also muttered in his heart, but unfortunately Dou Dan's guy is gone...... Alas, this Jingshi is really boring, and no one can talk freely about the hardships of these years.

The two drank a few sips of tea, but this one didn't mean anything at all.

After a while, he said quietly: "Brother Li must be thinking, the younger brother's intention, right?" ”

There was no need for Li Jing to answer, he continued: "The younger brother has heard some words recently, and only then did he know about Brother Li's return to Beijing, so I came to inform him so that Brother Li could take precautions." ”

"It is rumored that Brother Li told people in private that he was dissatisfied with staying in Taiyuan, and Li Yuan, the Duke of Tang Guogong, appointed a private person to plot misdeeds, so he was guilty of going to Beijing to be punished."

"The little brother didn't rush over, and sent someone to check ......"

Speaking of this, anger appeared on his face, and he said: "The person who came back reported that such rumors should come from the mouth of Li Dingfang, the captain of Yingyang Mansion, who is the mastermind, unless the person is arrested, otherwise, it will be impossible to find out." ”

"However, then Li Dingfang should be Brother Li's nephew, right? How can we do such things that harm others and ourselves? Li Yaowang doesn't care about it? Or did Brother Li offend Yuwen Valve? Or is someone trying to plot against Li Yuan, is this fabricating charges? ”

When Li Jing heard this, his heart almost stopped, and the cold hairs on his back stood up and down.

He was unlucky to be like this, and there were people who were stretching out their feet and stepping on them desperately...... Well, this can only be comfortingly said, there will be a blessing if you don't die in the catastrophe.

It can also be said that the heavens will descend on the people, and they must first suffer their minds, strain their muscles and bones, starve their bodies and skins, and act chaotically, balabala.

What Mencius said is actually very reasonable, because those who are unlucky will have a strong heart.

Like Li Jing, who has been unlucky for more than 20 years, that achievement is far more comparable.

Mental endurance, you can't imagine the bottom line at all.

Soon, he calmed down, and his mind was racing, and he first looked at the person in front of him suspiciously.

This Wei's son was instantly turned gloomy, but his sharp gaze was like a blade, and his shoulders immediately shrank when he saw it.

Yes, in front of Li Jing, who has been up and down in the Huan Sea for many years, has experienced several ups and downs, and has experienced the killing of the army, he is like a fast-talking child.

When he was fine, Li Jing was like a tolerant elder, and once he offended, Li Jing became a stern elder in an instant.

Wei Jie sat on pins and needles, so he stood up, bowed deeply, and said: "Brother Li, don't be suspicious, when I was in Taixue, Brother Li had the grace to protect me, and I still remember that Brother Li once said to the younger brother, how can a man be in a humble place because of the difference between his sons and daughters." ”

"The little brother was sad and bullied when he was young, and no one ever told the little brother about this, and the little brother remembered every bit of kindness."

"Now some people want to be unfavorable to Brother Li, the younger brother is a lowly position, and he can't help each other, so he can only tell the truth and let Brother Li make some preparations as soon as possible...... After that, if Brother Li is useful to the younger brother, just say it, the younger brother will do his best to do it for Brother Li. ”

Li Jing was silent, looked at him for a long time, and then waved his hand, "Brother Xian sat down and spoke." ”

After Wei Jie sat down, Li Jing shook his head and sighed: "Li Jing had a lot of friends in Beijing back then, and he didn't want to, but he only used unintentional words to get a confidant, and the things in this world are really unpredictable." ”

Wei Jie also eased up, the problem came again, and he shook his head and said: "Brother Li has a good reputation, the younger brother has achieved nothing so far, I only remember who is good to me and who is not good to me, and there is nothing else to be proud of, so that Brother Li's power and talent have always been admired by the younger brother." ”

Li Jing's heart trembled, and he also sighed in his heart at the wonder of this creation, this person ...... I really can't see that it's a great husband with clear grievances.

In fact, the things of the world are like this.

The wind knows the strength of the grass, and the fire sees the real gold. (To be continued.) )
