Chapter 238: Life is a chess game

This Lord Wang, since he was attached to the imperial power, the emperor will do whatever he asks him to do, and he will bite whoever he wants, he is the emperor's most loyal dog, with this Wang Hao, this Lord Wang will not listen to him.

Early the next morning, Wang Hao sent someone to send a lot of good things to Li Wen and his party, and Li Wen said to the little guy who sent things: "Wang Gongzi is really polite." ”

The little servant waved his hand and said: "Master Li, my young master has ordered, you are his own brother, if there is anything, you just have to tell us." ”

Wang Hao was in the household department, and after making soy sauce every day, he immediately ran over, Wang Hao entered the small courtyard with a smile, and saw Li Wen reading a book, but he was still wearing a mask.

Wang Hao walked over with a smile, sat down next to Li Wen and said, "Brother Li, don't you take off your mask when you read?" ”

Li Wen was a little depressed and said: "Brother Wang doesn't know, because when he was young, his face was injured, and his family was framed by traitors, so he didn't have the money to treat it, so he left an ugly scar, and he could only live with a mask in the future." ”

Wang Hao was puzzled and asked, "Brother Li, didn't you say that your family has an ancestral mastery?" Why don't you have any money? ”

Li Wen was even more disappointed, and said: "Because my father is a scholar, I feel that this kind of thing is insulting to the family style, so when my father is still alive, we are not allowed to engage in this." ”

Wang Hao was a little excited in his heart, but said frustratedly: "I'm sorry Brother Li, I didn't know that Brother Li's father was gone." ”

Li Wen smiled: "It's okay, my family all passed away when I was eight years old, and after so much time, I have long been used to it." ”

Hearing that the whole family was gone, Wang Hao was even more excited, as long as he learned the technique, he was killing this idiot, and there was no one to seek revenge on him, and this kind of person was the best to deceive if he lacked family affection.

Wang Hao asked, "Brother Li, what are you coming to the capital for this time?" ”

Li Wen replied: "Brother Wang, my younger brother came to the capital this time, because I heard that the gambling visit here is relatively large, so I want to come here to have a look." ”

Wang Hao felt that all this was beyond his expectations, but it was even better than he expected, Wang Hao said: "That day, I saw Brother Li betting against the opener in the 'Holy Hand', and there was something unclear below, that is, how could Brother Li guess ten small ones in a row?" ”

Li Wen replied: "It is just a family heirloom, I can predict according to the direction of the opening hand's shake, whether the plug he shakes out is big or small, and then I can also judge the size of the plug by the sound of the stopper." ”

Wang Hao asked again: "In this case, how could Brother Li lose to the opening handsome?" ”

Li Wen smiled: "If I keep winning, then I will go next time, he will definitely not let me in, and I thought I was playing fried, this time, he lost, he just regarded it as my ignorance and good luck, the next time I go, he will definitely take more capital to gamble with me, I heard that few people in the capital can win with this person, I am the only one who has won him, as long as I go now, he will definitely take out more silver to gamble." ”

Wang Hao clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Brother Li is so good, I don't know when Brother Li is going to go again?" ”

Li Wen said: "Today is not good, tomorrow." ”

After getting Li Wen's answer, Wang Hao said that he was going to leave, Li Wen looked at Wang Hao's back, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth hidden under the mask.

Mu Sheng's side, after receiving Qi Hongxin's note, he came to the Guogong Mansion, and the two felt that if Mu Sheng often went to the Wenwang Mansion, he would definitely be suspicious, only if he came to the Guogong Mansion, and Qi Hongxin entered through the back door, the two could talk about things justifiably.

Anyway, he used to come to the Guogong Mansion often, and it is not surprising that he came now, Mu Sheng went to the Guogong Mansion, Wen Ling was sitting in the pavilion, there were still many books on the stone table, and many of them had been opened, and Xiaolian was grinding Wen Ling.

Mu Sheng stepped forward and asked, "Ling'er, what are you doing here?" ”

Wen Ling glanced up at Mu Sheng and asked, "Brother Mu, are you done?" I heard that the emperor has given you a lot of errands recently, and my sister is here to congratulate Brother Mu. ”

Mu Sheng sat down and said with a smile: "It's still the blessing of Sister Ling'er, by the way, Ling'er, how did you make the medicine you sent to the princess's mansion last time?" Since drinking it, I feel much better. ”

Wen Ling continued to bow his head and write something, and said with a smile: "That's a home remedy I saw in the book, which is said to be able to change a person's physique, and it is good to be useful." ”

Mu Sheng casually took a book from the stone table and looked at it, and said in surprise: "This is the only book of medical skills?" ”

Wen Ling smiled: "Yes, this epidemic has reminded me that the people's understanding of medical skills is a little shallow, and many medical skills that I don't know are all in this lonely book."

So I thought, write some medical skills suitable for the people to watch, and then let the court engrave and distribute them to the people, although there is some labor and money, but many times, the people can understand more medical science, I am asking those who study medicine in Shantang to teach for free, and the next time they encounter this kind of thing, at least they have some ways to save themselves. ”

Mu Sheng praised: "Ling'er is really a doctor with a benevolent heart, Brother Mu really admires you." ”

The two sat here for a while, and then they heard Xiaolian salute directly in front of the pavilion: "Slave and maid see the prince." ”

Because both of them were sitting with their backs to the front, the three of them saw Qi Hongxin in front of Xiaolian.

When Wen Ling and Mu Sheng heard Xiaolian's words, they also stood up and saluted: "Xiaguan see the prince." ”

"The courtiers see the prince."

Qi Hongxin smiled and said: "No courtesy, Lord Mu and Ling'er are really interested, this is a rare good weather in May, the sun is warm and the breeze is blowing, drinking tea, reading and writing, such a good thing, why don't you call this king together." ”

Wen Ling smiled and said: "Lord, it's been a long time since the courtiers came out, and the courtiers suddenly felt unwell, so they won't accompany the prince, and I ask the prince to forgive me." ”

Qi Hongxin was a little helpless, knowing that Wen Ling was trying to avoid him, but he still felt sorry for Wen Ling's body, and said: "Ling'er is tired, go and rest, it's rare for this king to sit here with Master Mu, Ling'er doesn't have to worry about us." ”

Wen Ling and Xiaolian took all the books on the stone table away, Wen Ling and Xiaolian walked out of a distance, Xiaolian asked: "Miss, you have just arrived at the pavilion, why do you say that you are tired when you see the prince, isn't it, you have an awkward relationship with the prince?" ”

Wen Ling was helpless: "Xiaolian, you don't have to worry about these things, I have my own intentions, you give me the medical book, let the kitchen prepare some snacks and tea, and then you go to the study to send Go to the pavilion, otherwise if it is known, Brother Mu and Brother Xin meet privately at this juncture, they may be in trouble." ”

Xiaolian took the order to the study and muttered, "You can't even live together, so why worry about the prince?" ”

Mu Sheng and Qi Hongxin's side, Mu Sheng looked at Qi Hongxin and looked at Wen Ling's figure, like a child who had fallen out of favor, and said with some amusement: "Lord Wang, has something happened between you and Ling'er?" I thought that when I came back from Shucheng this time, your relationship would be better, but as a result... Judging from the following officials, it seems to be a little worse. ”

Qi Hongxin sighed helplessly and said: "In the past, because of physical reasons, even if I liked Ling'er for more than ten years, I didn't dare to say it, so it led to someone taking advantage of the opportunity to make trouble, and we almost missed it."

Qingping said that it was because I was too polite and too restrained, so Ling'er kept treating me as a brother, and this time I went to Shucheng, Qingping asked me to take the initiative, so I thought about giving it a try...

It is effective, there is a misunderstanding that will be solved by us, but Ling'er said that she doesn't want to marry me even if she dies, and she also said that even if she resists the decree, she will go to her father to divorce the marriage. ”

Mu Sheng was a little surprised: "Ling'er, she... Hasn't it always been the prince who likes it? ”

Qi Hongxin was also a little confused: "Ling'er, she likes me, Master Mu, where did you start?" ”

The maid sent the food and the chessboard over, Mu Sheng gave the sunspot to Qi Hongxin, and the two said while playing chess: "You know that Ling'er hates reading the most, right?" ”

Qi Hongxin nodded and said, "I know this." ”

Mu Sheng continued: "Ling'er has been a doctor since elementary school for you, right?" ”

Qi Hongxin nodded again.

Mu Sheng continued: "When Ling'er was a child, in order to study medicine, her wife asked her to endorse her, but she refused to threaten her with red date cake to endorse her, tell me, how heavy is your position in her heart?" ”

It was the first time that Qi Hongxin knew that Wen Ling had even endured to memorize the most hated book in order to study medicine, and said in a somewhat dying tone: "It's all my fault, I said something wrong, so that she misunderstood me, but it doesn't matter, my queen will be her in the future, only her." ”

Mu Sheng asked, "What are you going to do over there?" Lord, forgive the officials for daring to say a word, do you remember what Ling'er said when she was appreciating the chrysanthemum banquet and looking for the emperor to ask for marital autonomy. ”

Qi Hongxin nodded: "I know, when the matter is completed, I will deal with these problems." ”

Mu Sheng nodded and said: "This is the prince's housework, and the lower officials don't dare to take care of it, and they don't want to take care of it, but Ling'er is my sister, even if the lower officials try their best, they won't let people bully her." ”

Qi Hongxin smiled and said, "Don't worry, Lord Mu." ”

Mu Sheng dropped the white son and said, "I won." Qi Hongxin came back to his senses at this time, and said with a wry smile: "This king thought that Lord Mu was a scholar, and he paid the most attention not to rob while the fire was hot, but I didn't expect that Lord Mu would take advantage of the king's troubles and take the opportunity to eat a lot of chess pieces from this king." ”

Mu Sheng smiled: "Lord Wang, this is not a robbery while the fire is burning, this is called a soldier who is not tired of cheating, this chessboard is like life, one wrong step and one wrong step, the prince is losing his mind, and your enemy will take advantage of your inattention and take you down in one fell swoop." ”

Qi Hongxin didn't follow: "Master Mu, this game doesn't count, let's come again." ”

Mu Sheng didn't refuse, the two put away their chess pieces and continued to play Go, Mu Sheng asked, "Lord Wang, do you have any detailed plans?" ”
