Lin Chaoge paused, and continued: "She was afraid that she would tell her adoptive parents that she wanted to go back to her family, so they would no longer take her in, so she often went to the door of some dignitaries to find someone who could help her, hoping that someone would bring her a letter of peace, I was right."

Wang Xifeng was a little stunned when he heard this. "How do you know so well?" They were only a one-sided relationship that day, and they even had some taste.

Lin Chaoge explained: "She wanted me to help send the letter, but when she saw that I didn't believe her, she confessed it to me and gave me the letter. ”

"I'm not half interested in people, don't be cranky."

"Then ???"

"I refused? and that which believeth is to its rightful owner. Lin Chaoge raised her feet and walked indoors, even if the sun was just right outside today, she still thought that it was a little cold after staying for a long time, which was nothing more than a psychological effect.

"I see, no wonder she asked me for help, it turned out that you refused, and I was happy for a long time, thinking that Young Master Ben looked more stable and responsible than you." Speaking of this, I can't help but sigh a little.

Lin Chaoge couldn't help but glance at him, and really wanted to pry open his brain to see what kind of old paste was in it: "No, I just gave her a little bit of money and asked her to find another master."

“………”。

"I'll just say, why did she give some broken silver when she handed over the letter, I almost thought it was a reward." Wang Xifeng took out a pale green money bag from his arms.

"You sent the letter, didn't you?

"Hmm." Wang Xifeng nodded, a little embarrassed.

"Did you find it in the end?" Lin Chaoge asked again.

Wang Xifeng showed a sad expression when he heard this, Lin Chaoge frowned when he saw this, and he felt that he didn't have any good answers, so he didn't plan to ask, but this heart was like a thousand and eight little ants gnawing, which made people's hearts itch, which was really uncomfortable.

"What's wrong?" Lin Chaoge had a bad premonition in his heart.

"Later, she found her parents, and they have become a piece of loess." Wang Xifeng said a little heavily, pinching the money bag in his palm is not a taste.

Lin Chaoge frowned, "What's the matter?" ”

Wang Xifeng also frowned, and then continued to explain.

It turned out that the northwest was different from other places in the Great Zhou Dynasty, they didn't care whether the child was male or female, and usually only gave birth to one, and that girl was the only daughter in their family.

Originally, the daughter was lost, and according to local customs, she could have another one, but her parents were reluctant to have another child and insisted on finding her, so they left the village to look for people.

It is a pity that the foreign barbarians were in a very arrogant stage at that time, rushing into the northwest border of the Great Zhou Dynasty and wantonly burning and looting, the couple heard that their daughter was taken captive by the barbarians, so they rushed into the barbarian camp regardless of life and death, and finally were killed by the barbarians on the spot, and they were thrown back to the border village before they even had time to scream.

Fortunately, the barbarians were not all brutal people, a woman disguised herself, and inquired about the couple's village, and then sent their bodies back to the village, knowing this, it was also told to him by a local old man, and the old man also took him to see the graves of the husband and wife, and the man burned the woman's letter to them in front of the couple's grave with some heaviness, and bowed three more times, but in his heart he had a deeper understanding of the barbarians.

After Lin Chaoge heard the whole thing, she was silent for a while, she never thought that the situation on the northwest border was so serious, and it turned out that the current prosperity and peace were just whitewashing.

"I had an idea after listening to someone who came back from the Northwest this time." Wang Xifeng clenched his fists and said firmly.

"What?" Lin Chaoge asked, "Are you going to fight?" I couldn't help but look at him up and down all over his body.

Wang Xifeng laughed when he heard this, spread his hand, and said with a wry smile: "How is it possible, I have been in elementary school from the Four Books and Five Classics, the way of governing the country, and my physical fitness is so poor, to drag the soldiers back?" ”

"So what are you going to do?"

"Imperial examination." Wang Xifeng said firmly.

"And then?" Lin Chaoge asked, doubting in his heart that he was going to participate in the imperial examination??? Sure it's not a joke or a ???

"Do you know why the barbarians are committing repeated crimes on the Northwest Frontier?"

"The barbarians are short of supplies, and the nomadic cattle and sheep on the northwest border can provide them with supplies." Lin Chaoge replied.

Wang Xifeng shook his head when he heard this, "Not only these, the Great Zhou Dynasty has thousands of troops, how can it be that it can't defeat tens of thousands of barbarians." ”

Lin Chaoge frowned and thought for a while, and suddenly blessed his heart, and said with some heaviness: "Could it be that the Northwest Government has done nothing?" ”

"Well, the Northwest government has been entrenched for many years, and it has long been independent, so in order to strengthen its own strength, it colluded with the barbarians, exchanged the barbarians' horses and weapons, and secretly allowed them to behave in the frontier." Wang Xifeng said in a deep voice.

"So you're going to go to the Northwest Frontier after you enter the office?" Lin Chaoge asked with some hesitation.

"Where can it be so easy, the northwest is a fortress, so naturally you have to make some merits first." Wang Xifeng rubbed Lin Chaoge's head: "Besides, if you look at my results, if I really go to the scientific examination, I will definitely be brushed down in the first round."

"But no matter how difficult the future is, I want to try it, if it can be done, death may be heavier than Mount Tai and lighter than Hongmao, and according to my life experience, what's wrong with operating in the dark."

Lin Chaoge unexpectedly didn't knock his hand down this time; "You can think about it, the strong man is gone. Only the Horse Leather Shroud".

"The situation in the Northwest Frontier is so grim, how can you go alone." Lin Chaoge disagreed.

Fortunately, although it is not dark today, it is already a little dark, and Lin Chaoge leaned against the pillar, so Wang Xifeng did not let her see her emotions.

It's getting late, and it's hard for Lin Chaoge to fall asleep tonight.

"Young Master, let's go out tomorrow." Xi'er outside the door knocked on her door in the middle of the night for some reason, and her tone was a little heavy.

"Okay." Lin Chaoge, who was not asleep, was lying counting the stars.

Tomorrow, I just went to see Lin Xiuchang, and after coming back for so long, she hasn't seen him once, which is really unfilial.

The next day, the weather was still cloudless, the sky was clear, and a car drove out from the city gate in a low-key manner.

"Young master, please accompany me for a trip." Xi'er was a little embarrassed, smiled shyly, and showed a pair of cute little tiger teeth.

"No, I just went out to get some air."

"Young master, hurry, you run." In order to delay time, Xi'er drove the carriage in another direction in a panic, Lin Chaoge vaguely remembered that it was half a cliff, and the cliff was covered with clouds and mist all year round, and he didn't know the depth.

Lin Chaoge panicked after falling and rolled out of the carriage, and drilled into the jungle with all his strength, wearing heavy clothes in the cold winter wax moon, running naturally no lighter than in summer, and his legs were filled with dozens of catties of lead, which was heavy.

"Quick, don't let that kid run."

"Ge Laozi, if it weren't for Lao Tzu's hand, he really wouldn't have been able to react to this plan to divert the tiger from the mountain." It is not easy to ride horses in the dense forest, and a group of black-clothed men led by them abandoned their horses to chase after them, and the bright broadsword reflected a dazzling light in the sun.

Lin Chaoge didn't know how Xi'er was doing now, he was already a mud bodhisattva crossing the river, his legs were getting heavier and heavier, his eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, and his throat was so dry and hoarse that he was about to smoke.

In the plot of the original book, the daughter of the left servant, Mu Rose, and another lady, Guo Yingjun, are both concerned about Bai Qingxing, and their families are comparable. There is no accident, and in the end, Bai Qingxing's princess will be selected among these two.

Bai Ayaben was the most powerful candidate, but she was kept aside because of family problems, and Empress Liu also had the selfish intention to match her to her son.

Empress Liu hesitated on the candidate, so she came up with an idea to invite the two ladies to come to the palace to enjoy the flowers, and she secretly observed the way on the side, but she invited the two of them to come over alone, and it was difficult to ensure that others did not think too much, and who was not a good person in the court.

Thinking about it, I can only use the queen mother's birthday banquet to invite people into the palace in advance to hold a winter flower banquet, who among the people does not know that this time is held to see the future of the seven princesses in advance, naturally Coke will be their own daughters dressed up beautifully sent in, many marriageable handsome young men if they have the right eye, why not achieve a pair of beautiful things.

Mu Rose and Guo Yingjun are mortal enemies, the two of them have to compare everything, from small to large, no matter clothes and jewelry, even pets have to compete with each other, this time into the palace is the same, although because the location has converged a lot, but it is indispensable to take the opportunity to sarcastically mock each other.

You say that I am as empty as a famous flower, with skin and no ink.

I said that you are like a roadside wildflower that no one wants to look at, and the public is not aware of it.

"Although this green plum is precious, it needs to be taken care of day and night by craftsmen, and it does not dare to have the slightest negligence, and it will be bad if you don't pay attention to the quality, and between the flowers, it is far less strong and lovely than the chrysanthemum in the mountains, no matter how difficult the environment, it can also grow strongly, it can be ornamented, and it can be used as medicine, and it is also like a person, and it can not be empty in the stomach." Guo Yingjun looked at Mu Rose with a smile: "What does Sister Mu think? ”

Disapproving, Rose pinched a plum branch and retorted: "There are so many wild chrysanthemums, how many people will stop for it?" Although it can be used as medicine, the sum of thousands of plants is not as precious and moving as a green plum. It's like a person who reads poetry and books by himself, and is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but he doesn't know what others see first, or your appearance, just like green plums and wild chrysanthemums, no matter how much you blow, it is also a bargain on the bad street, and it can't be put on the table."

Guo Yingjun was so sarcastic by Mu Rose, and she was naturally angry in her heart, but her upbringing since childhood allowed her to maintain a decent expression, she pursed the corners of her lips lightly, and still smiled lightly: "I don't know if Sister Mu has ever heard a sentence: Sex is a matter of people, and love is relaxed by lust." ”

"You ......"

"Don't make any noise, don't disturb your highnesses for the big holidays." I really couldn't stand the two of them who pinched each other as soon as they met, and Bai Ling, who acted as a peacemaker, spoke up.

"Hmph, pretend." Among them, those who were not used to seeing Bai Aya snorted coldly.

Bai Aya only frowned slightly when she heard this, and was silent.
