Yes! Military merit is a fight for life, why let people pick peaches?

If Chen Luo becomes such a person, who else in the army can afford him?

Even if he becomes the prince of Zhenguo one day, what will he do to serve the public?

It is indeed inappropriate for the emperor to say this.

If other people encounter such a thing, they should appease Chen Luo a few words no matter what, and enlighten him. But Wang Xi thought differently.

In his place, he seeks his own affairs.

As soon as the emperor says a lot, he should pay more attention to what he says. Even if it is unintentional, it is not worthy of forgiveness. What's more, the emperor has been in power for so many years, and he is not a mediocre person, it is impossible for him not to know what kind of impact Chen Luo will have when he says this.

What is the purpose of the emperor's words?

Chen Luo is not only a courtier, but also a junior, not to mention the food of the monarch and the king's worries. Even if the emperor has any intentions for him, Chen Luo should bear it, and he shouldn't be so angry.

This matter should not only have a bad impact on Chen Luo.

Wang Xi said: "Can you speak at that time?" ”

If you can speak, you will have the opportunity to justify. But sometimes, it's like when she gets into trouble, and the maid next to her wants to carry the black pot for her.

Those who take the blame will not necessarily suffer.

The main thing is to see what compensation is made afterwards.

After listening to Wang Xi's words, I don't know why, Chen Luo breathed a sigh of relief.

He was a little worried that Wang Xi would persuade him that thunder, rain and dew were all Jun En, and let him forget it.

The emperor wants him to carry the bag, no problem, but he shouldn't be pushed out like a fool like this, and he should be grateful to Dade and feel that he has received great favors.

When Chen Luo thought of this, his eyes sank, and he simply told Wang Xi that he had suppressed half of his words: "Shi Lei is a native of Xiapu, Fujian, and his family has a hereditary official position of the fourth grade. He was the second son, and the official position was inherited by his brother. His father was quite capable of drilling camps, and took the path of Wang Long, the eunuch who was the former celebrant of the seal, and got Shi Lei to the capital and entered Jinwuwei. He also has a younger brother, who followed Yan Chen, and has always been a capable general under Yan Chen, and has made many military exploits.

However, Shi Lei's younger brother has a fatal flaw, he doesn't like to read, and the fame of a martial artist is still donated, and it is more difficult to let him write an excerpt than to let him personally go into battle to kill the enemy.

Yan Zhen wanted to ask for credit for him several times, but he was impeached, and he couldn't do it.

"This time in southern Fujian, Shi Lei's younger brother made a great contribution.

"You said, the emperor didn't mention it early or late, but when Yan Zhen sent the excerpt to Shi Lei's brother to ask for merit, he mentioned that I should go to southern Fujian, what would Shi Lei think?"

Wang Xi looked at Chen Luo and said in a deep voice, "You think you are going to share his brother's military merits?" ”

Chen Luo nodded, so irritated that he even stood up, walked around under the grape trellis, and said: "Not only that, but I'm also afraid that Shi Lei will think too much, and feel that the emperor is blackmailing him for me and asking him to use the silver to beat me." At that time, I will not only offend the Shi family, but also Yan Xu.

"Although I am not afraid of this, but afterwards the emperor told me that this is what the queen mother meant. Let me tell my mother, so that my mother does not have to worry about my future, and my future path, he is in his heart.

"I'd love to ask, in his heart, what kind of future should I have?

"It's obviously a very simple thing, either to make Chen Ying the son of the world, or to make me the son of the world, he has to stir up trouble and make everyone uneasy."

"The emperor helped his nephew blackmail his courtiers?!" Wang Xi was dumbfounded, "Is there such a thing?" ”

Chen Luo smiled bitterly and said, "When I was young, the emperor asked Ma San to give me a golden job. Ma San didn't care. The emperor also specially asked him if he had beaten in front of many ministers. It made him red-faced, and he really gave me a golden bowl of rice. ”

In this way, I am afraid that everyone will think that even if the emperor is a joke, when it comes to Chen Luo, the joke will also become true.

For Chen Luo, it is indeed very disadvantageous.

Thinking about it this way, the emperor's kindness to Chen Luo is really limited.

Chen Luo thought more.

He didn't go back and forth a few times, and he felt uneasy. Let's go back and forth, and it's hot and sweaty.

In the end, it was too hot to prevail, and he sat down and drank two cups of tea in one gulp.

Wang Xi took a pu fan and gave it to Chen Luo.

Chen Luo slapped a few times, remembering that the last time he met Wang Xi, Wang Xi had reminded him that he should straighten out his affairs first, and he hadn't replied to her yet, so he couldn't help but say: "My mother was really going to let me go to southern Fujian before, and I later went back to tell her that I wanted to be the prince of Zhenguo, although she felt a little embarrassed, but she still decided to help me ask the emperor what he meant."

"My mother has not yet entered the palace, but the emperor suddenly asked me to go to southern Fujian, which coincides with my mother's statement. If it weren't for what the queen said in front of the emperor? Is it that the emperor wants the Shi family or Yan Zhen to do something? ”

Wang Xi was a little surprised.

Chen Luo actually had a discussion with her, and this tone really had a bit of a partner's flavor.

She said with a smile: "If it is really the queen mother who said something in front of the emperor, I think you should find a way to let the queen mother take care of your affairs." Although I have never met the queen mother, you can see that she has been planning for so many years, but she has not been able to put the crown prince's hat on the second prince, which shows that she is not a particularly strategic person.

"If she calculates it, it's okay for you to say, I'm afraid that she is doing bad things with pure intentions, and when there is no reliable time, it will be troublesome."

Chen Luo didn't think about it before, but felt that the queen was very good. Born in such a good family, but he is willing to tolerate everything and everywhere, there is no arrogance in treating people sincerely, and he is gentle and kind and very generous.

Now it seems that it is indeed not enough to be kind and courageous. She is a good clan woman in the family, but she is not enough to see in the royal family.

Chen Luo pursed his lips.

Did the emperor see it a long time ago and think so?

He lowered his eyes, hiding his disdain.

It seems that in this way, he can maintain a gentle and kind image in front of Wang Xi.

As for why he wanted to maintain such an image, Chen Luo didn't realize it, let alone think about it.

He just felt upset.

Ever since he investigated the extra incense from the Qianqing Palace, nothing around him has gone smoothly.

Of course, maybe it didn't go well in the past, but he didn't think much about it, so he didn't pursue it, and he didn't have much to do, so naturally he didn't have so many thoughts.

But if he was given a choice, he would still be willing to be nosy.

He would rather die soberly than live in confusion.

Thinking of this, Chen Luo couldn't help but look at Wang Xi.

The afterglow is no longer visible, and the lights should be in place.

Wang Xi still sat under the grape trellis with a smile, without the anxiety of returning late for half a minute, nor the irritability of listening to his chatter, she just sat there quietly, like a rich flower, waiting for the spring breeze and autumn rain to worry about her.

He suddenly felt a little weak.

He was so concerned with his own business that he forgot to ask her how she was doing today.

Whoever is invited to your home by someone who is only two or three sides of your relationship should be a little apprehensive, right?

Chen Luo's face was slightly hot, and he said, "How are you today?" I asked Bo Liu to invite you, you weren't scared, were you? ”

Of course, I was very surprised.

But not to be intimidated.

Besides, Chen Luo has good intentions.

Wang Xi smiled: "It's okay." Mainly because Miss Bo Liu is very interesting, today not only took me to visit her embroidery room, but also showed me the embroidery patterns and embroideries she designed. I didn't expect Miss Bo Liu's embroidery to be so good at embroidering Buddha statues and Buddhist scriptures. ”

The corners of Chen Luo's mouth twitched.

He didn't think it was a big deal.

A Miss Houmen and the embroidery girl competed for high and low, Bo Liu was embarrassed to say, but he was not embarrassed to listen.

It can be seen that Wang Xi is still quite modest.

He said a little embarrassedly: "Bo Liu, who likes to fiddle with these since he was a child, doesn't know what's interesting, and today really made you feel wronged." ”

"What did Master Chen say?" Wang Xi responded politely, but thought in her heart, although she is not good at embroidery, but she also likes gorgeous clothes, likes to discuss patterns, new clothes, today she and Miss Bo Liu are also the same hobbies, in the Bo family these few hours, not only did she not feel uncomfortable, but also found it very interesting.

She was not aggrieved at all.

But she didn't say much to Chen Luo.

Chen Luo called her out of the house to help her!

At this point, Chen Luo jumped up all of a sudden.

It's not too early, he has to send Wang Xi back to the Yongcheng Marquis Mansion, otherwise the people in the Yongcheng Marquis Mansion will have to worry.

In case you find the Qingyun Marquis Mansion, it will be troublesome.

Isn't he like the queen mother Wang Xi said, doing bad things with good intentions, which makes Wang Xi disdainful!

"It's too strange for you to go home at this time and say that you didn't have dinner." Chen Luo said apologetically, "It's me who delayed you." You can hastily eat at my place, and after two days, I will invite you to eat to compensate for your grievances. ”

Wang Xi's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said, "No, no!" I don't need Lord Chen to compensate, if Lord Chen is attentive, he will invite me to eat Wang Ji's doornail meatloaf today, right? I heard that the door nail meatloaf of King Ji in Beijing is the best, but I haven't had a chance to eat it yet! ”

That look, it's not a matter of returning late, nor is it a matter of compensation, and now I can eat the biggest thing in my mouth.

Chen Luo couldn't cry or laugh, recalling the scenes when he had interacted with Wang Xi several times, he laughed out loud, and couldn't help but test Wang Xi: "Wang Ji's doornail meatloaf is very delicious, but the pear soup next door to them is also a must." Why don't I treat you to a meatloaf and pear soup today? ”

"Yes, yes!" Wang Xi's eyes shone brightly, as bright as if they could shine into people's hearts.

Chen Luo still doesn't understand.

The one in front of you is a foodie!

Wherever there is something delicious, she will taste it.

Chen Luo thought of the thin skin and thick stuffing of the small buns on Tianjin Wei's side.

He's going to Tianjin Wei tomorrow, do you want to bring two buns back for Miss Wang to taste?

With this thought, Chen Luo "bahed" himself a few times in his heart.

No matter how delicious Tianjin Wei's buns are, they are cold when they are brought back.

Where are the newly reheated steamed buns delicious?

Maybe Wang Xi ate the buns he gave and thought that Tianjin Wei's buns were not worthy of the name?

Why don't you buy something in the capital?

The important thing is to be delicious.

Chen Luo nodded secretly and decided to do so.
