Bo Mingyue's feelings for Chen Luo are very complicated. When he was young, he only knew that this brother was better at reading, riding and shooting than him, and he had a better relationship with the prince in the palace, and he was shot by Chen Luo by mistake, so he avoided Chen Luo a little. But when he grew up, he only felt pitiful for Chen Luo.

What's the use of reading a good book? How good is the riding archery? What if you are more popular than him?

Without the protection of both parents, these things are nothing.

He looked at Chen Luo again, and he didn't know whether to sympathize with him a little more or sigh a little more.

Now Qingyunhou asked him to tell Chen Luo about this, obviously to pull Chen Luo into the water, although he didn't know what the real monster under the water was, but his father's vague calculation was still keenly felt.

"Is that appropriate?" Bo Mingyue said with some hesitation, "The emperor has always spoiled him, and he is also respectful and filial to the emperor, even if he tells him, he can't make trouble in front of the emperor!" ”

"Just do what I tell you to do." Qingyunhou said with a smile, "As for why this is happening, I can't tell you yet, when the truth comes out, I will tell you well." ”

There is a bit of a taste of teaching children to behave and do things.

Bo Mingyue thought about it, and felt that his father would not be able to calculate Chen Luo even if he wanted to calculate him, of course, he was a friend of the dead Dao and not a poor man, so he immediately threw the little uneasiness in his heart out of the clouds, and the hippie smiling face became the familiar appearance of the gentleman in Beijing, and said: "I helped Daddy so much, you have to give me some reward, right?" I don't necessarily need anything else if you reward me, so you can let Gongzhong add me an extra fifty taels of money every month - I'm older now, and when I go out for a walk, I have to spend money everywhere, just my little month, I can't use it for a month, and I don't dare to go out when others call me out for tea. You have pity on your poor son, and let him go out decently! ”

Qingyunhou jumped up and was about to fight when he heard this, and said: "Your monthly case of 20 taels of silver a month, your mother also quietly subsidizes you 20 taels in private, your grandmother quietly subsidizes you 20 taels, your uncle also quietly subsidizes you 10 taels, and your grandmother subsidizes you 15 taels, do you still want to increase the monthly case?" Don't think I don't know what you're doing because I don't care about the chores at home? ”

He took the paperweight on his desk and was about to hit someone.

Bo Mingyue hugged her head and ran to Mrs. Tai's house to avoid trouble.

Qingyunhou looked at his son's embarrassed back and laughed, only then did he realize that his son was making such a fuss, and his mood became happy.

*

Chen Luo got the news, it was already three days later.

He looked at Wei Huai, who came to report the news, and was quite a little crying and laughing.

The Bo family wants to use him, and he also wants to use the Bo family, in the end, everyone wants to hide behind their backs and release cold arrows, and it seems that it is not so easy to join forces.

Wei Huai thought about the last time he went to Yunju Temple to deliver a letter, and thought of the rumors about Bo Mingyue, Chen Luo, and Miss Yongcheng Houfubiao, he couldn't help but squeeze his eyebrows at Chen Luo, and said, "What does Bo Mingyue mean by this?" It doesn't mean that you want to get out of the way, does it? He also underestimated you. ”

Chen Luo raised his eyebrows and said "oh" noncommittally, but he pondered Bo Mingyue's intentions in his heart.

Dragging him into the water, is it what Bo Mingyue means? Or is it the meaning of the Qingyun Marquis Mansion?

If it was Bo Mingyue's meaning, Bo Mingyue might just want to see his jokes. But if it means Qingyun Houfu, it's a bit fun!

Chen Luo smiled, but clenched his fists tightly.

His move fell in Wei Huai's eyes, and he couldn't help but feel a little jealous.

Wei Huai thought for a while and said, "Master Chen, don't say that I talk a little too much because I'm a few years older than you, I think Bo Qigongzi is there, you have to get a charter." At the beginning, the Xiangyang Hou Mansion gave him and Miss Yongcheng Hou Mansion, but he was a serious matchmaker. Although Bo Mingyue refused at the beginning, didn't he regret it later? also sent a cart of things to compensate Miss Yongcheng Houfubiao.

"In my opinion, you should teach him a lesson in this matter. No matter what, he is just an idle seventh-grade petty official who relies on the shadow, and you are a serious third-grade master. ”

Speaking of this, he thought of the gossip he heard a few days ago, and couldn't help asking: "I heard that the emperor intends to let you go to the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies to take charge of the war in southern Fujian, but is there really such a thing?" I'm determined to follow you. When you go to the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, can you transfer me over? ”

Who doesn't know that there is Yan Zheng, the living king of Yama, the war in southern Fujian will soon end, and it will soon be rewarded for meritorious deeds.

The emperor really doted on his nephew, such a good opportunity, so he squeezed Chen Luo in to pick peaches.

Chen Luo was stunned.

He knew that gossip always spread more and more, but he didn't expect it to spread so evilly.

"Who are you listening to this nonsense?" He said to Wei Huai helplessly, "Do you believe this kind of thing too?" Even if the emperor is willing, I am willing, then it depends on whether Yan Zheng agrees with him or not! ”

Yan Zheng is a man of great martial arts and a brilliant talent, comparable to the old marquis of Qingyun Houfu forty years ago, but he has been circling around Fujian, Zhejiang and Suzhou for so many years, and has never been able to enter the capital, so you can imagine his temper.

Wei Huai touched his head with a smile and said, "Aren't we all looking forward to your promotion?" When the time comes, I can also take my brothers with me! ”

These words made Chen Luo's heart move.

Most of the emperor's personal guards are people like Wei Huai, it is impossible to stand up for themselves, and there are not many things for them at home if they don't stand up for themselves, and they all have a complicated net behind them.

Can he take it for himself?

The more Chen Luo thought about it, the more feasible he felt, and the more he thought about it, the more excited he felt, he hastily sent Wei Huai, walked to the door of Gui Shunzhai and turned around, went to Qiaojiapu, which specializes in Jiangnan dim sum, and bought Dingsheng cake, water chestnut cake, crispy dumplings, panxiang cake, chess cake and ...... A lot, three or four small guys back and forth several times to move the snacks to the carriage, he went to buy melons, plums, pears, grapes, and went back to the eldest princess's mansion, moved two baskets of Fujian tribute oranges, and went to Yunju Temple.

Wang Xizheng and Chang Ke tease Ali.

If Ah Li can count the black and white chess pieces on the table, they will ask the cook to make him a bowl of mung bean smoothie to eat.

The little guy knelt on the cushion covered with scarlet brocade and counted the pieces on the chessboard carefully: "Sixty-seven, sixty-eight, sixty-nine......"

He fiddles with the chess pieces in his right hand and bends his short knuckles in his left hand. Those who don't know think that this is just an unintentional act of a child, but those who know can see that the child is counting in an arithmetic way.

This method of arithmetic is usually used in the Book of Changes, Wang Xi once learned from one of her grandfather's friends when she was young, but she didn't know the preciousness of this method of counting at that time, and she preferred to make new clothes for the puppets, and gave up after a little understanding, her grandfather and grandfather's friends didn't say anything, so she gave up.

Thinking about it now, Wang Xi is quite embarrassed.

Chang Ke saw a little way, she was afraid of disturbing the child, so she whispered to Wang Xi: "This should be taught by his ninth uncle, right?" The Liu family seems to be really as others say, it is a family of Confucianism and a family history. ”

Wang Xi nodded.

Thinking about it, I don't know who I heard in my memory, people who like this kind of calculation are quite proficient in arithmetic, I Ching not to say, and I like astrology, divination, and I like to play tricks and have some ability to peep into the heavens. If it is placed in troubled times, it is mostly a military advisor-like figure.

O Strategist!

She propped her chin up.

Doesn't Chen Luo happen to lack a bureaucracy?

If he is really involved in the matter of seizing the heir, he really has to have a staff member like a military advisor.

Don't you see those characters who can win Kyushu, and there is a very powerful military advisor around them?

Wang Xi looked at Ah Li again, and felt that this little child's whole body was shining with gold, and he was a boy under the Bodhisattva's seat.

She immediately beckoned Bai Guo: "You go and tell the kitchen, if anyone can make some snacks for children, Ali likes them as soon as they eat them, and if he can let him run to us every day, I will reward her with ten taels of silver, not fifty taels of silver." ”

Wang Xi often had strange ideas, but Bai Guo was not surprised, so he just responded with a smile and retreated. Chang Ke looked Wang Xi up and down, and said, "What are you going to do?" ”

She thought that although Liu Zhong was older, he was also a talent, and he didn't marry a wife, so Wang Xi must not fall in love with Liu Zhong.

Of course Wang Xi won't tell Chang Ke the truth, this matter hasn't been skimmed yet!

She smiled and said, "Don't you like Ali very much?" After politely releasing the suspicion with my uncle last time, Ah Li came to you and was not very distressed, afraid that he would have blisters on his feet, afraid that he would be tired and thirsty and abducted, and sent the maid to question Liu Zhong, and sent my cook to make a lot of delicious snacks for Ah Li, so that Ah Li came again after a few days, I am just idle and have nothing to do, help you, you are good, and asked me about me? Otherwise, I'll talk to the kitchen and make a mung bean paste, and the rest will be waived! ”

Chang Ke listened to her narrow tone, gritted his teeth and slapped Wang Xi a few times, and said, "Aren't I afraid of disturbing you?" I've been stained with your light and have come with you. ”

Wang Xi smiled, hurriedly grabbed Chang Ke's shoulder, and said, "You and my sister, what are you doing with these words?" Ali, this kid is indeed very likable, even if you don't say it, I will ask the cook to cook some delicious food for him. But he's young, and he doesn't look like he was pampered, we don't know what taboos this kid has, even if he wants to be good to him, it's still leisurely and safe. ”

Chang Ke's face flushed.

It just so happened that Chen Luo came over.

Wang Xi handed Ah Li to Chang Ke, looked at the bright sun outside the grape trellis, and hurriedly instructed the kitchen to prepare lunch, and asked the little maid who came to Tongyu: "Lord Chen can tell me why he came?" Did he come alone or did he bring someone? You clean up the flower hall over there, put ice on it, and then bring out some mung bean paste hanging in the well, so that Lord Chen can cool off. ”

The little guy usually only cares about it, where do he remember so many things, and he looks at Baizhu beside Wang Xi as if asking for help.

Baizhu smiled and sent them down one by one, and Wang Xi went to the flower hall.
