Chapter 82: Poisonous

The incident happened suddenly, and after Li Fengming yelled in embarrassment, his mind was a little messy, and he was speechless for a while.

And Xiao Mingche was also at a loss, and even the apology was barely squeezed out of his throat.

Both of them were stunned, and they didn't think about how to end the matter, and after returning home, they went back to each courtyard in embarrassment and silence, and the atmosphere that had finally eased was stiff again.

*****

At dusk, Li Fengming asked Chun Yudai to gather all his current gold ingots and put them in a large wooden box with black lacquer and gold.

After that, he took Xin Wei and Chun Yudai to hide in the small study in the courtyard......

Count gold ingots to play.

In the past six months, on the basis of the initial 300 gold, Li Fengming has added 50 gold from Princess Kengheng when he was in the palace, 50 gold from the queen today, and four gold from the queen mother.

That's all there is to it, but it's not much to count.

She just thought that the happiness of "counting gold ingots" could hedge off the embarrassment that made her scalp tingle.

But no.

The brief "contact" between the electric lights and flints on the carriage recurled before her eyes repeatedly, so embarrassing that she curled up on her ten toes.

Every time she clicked a gold ingot with her fingertips, a question would involuntarily pop up in her mouth: "Did he do it on purpose?" ”

When tens of millions of people are fighting on the battlefield, life and death are close at hand, so the keen eyes and precision of the strength of the experienced people on the battlefield are absolutely incomparable.

Although Xiao Mingche was suddenly playful before, no matter how he thought about it, he would not deviate to ...... So?!

Thinking of this, Li Fengming gritted his teeth, his cheeks hot.

But when her finger clicked on the next gold ingot, her thoughts changed rapidly. "Perhaps, he didn't mean to?"

On the wedding night, in full view of everyone, that guy was just accidentally touched by her finger, and he almost ran away.

In the end, she also took out the treasury key and the gold seal, in exchange for her a promise of "don't touch me in the future".

Also, she was forced to sleep together in the palace before, and occasionally she turned over half-asleep and half-awakened, and slightly crossed the boundary between the two, Xiao Mingche would wake up immediately.

Either Mao fried and moved farther away, or gritted her teeth and coldly reminded her to sleep back to her original place.

From this, it can be inferred that he should not be interested in taking advantage ......of her, right?

The two opinions were repeatedly intertwined and held on to each other in Li Fengming's mind, and he was never able to reach a consensus.

Chun Yudai and Xin Wei, who were squatting side by side opposite her, were dazed and frightened.

The two of them didn't dare to breathe, so they looked at her blushing for a while, pale for a while, and muttering to themselves.

After returning from the palace, Li Fengming didn't say anything to them except for ordering all the four hundred gold ingots to be gathered.

They didn't know anything, and they didn't dare to ask their Highness what happened to him in the palace todayβ€”

Suddenly, his words and deeds are so strange that he seems to have changed people, and he is very scary to think about it!

*****

In the study room of the North Courtyard, Zhan Kaiyang was also very scary.

He has mediocre talents, and he has not read enough books, and he has not put forward many useful opinions in the more than two years since he came to the Huai Palace.

Fortunately, Xiao Mingche was not harsh on him, and he would not say much to him if he had nothing to do, let alone reprimand and reprimand.

Among the daily errands that Zhan Kaiyang handles, there are few things that have been clearly affirmed by Xiao Mingche, "going out rain or shine to collect all kinds of gossip news" and "arranging for the government Chinese to go to the palace gate every day to copy back various announcements issued by the imperial court".

But today's Xiao Mingche was unusual, and coldly reprimanded the recently sent palace gate papermaking for being messy, making him dizzy and painful.

Zhan Kaiyang wanted to say that the recently sent palace gate paper, in addition to the content, the details on the side are no different from the past two years.

But in the face of His Royal Highness's unusually cold eyes, he didn't dare to say anything.

Then, Xiao Mingche asked about the progress of the preparations for the celebration banquet.

After reading the list of guests to be invited written by Zhan Kaiyang, he made a cold face again: "Your words are so ugly that everyone is angry." ”

Zhan Kaiyang muttered in his heart: When I first came, you clearly said that although I didn't read much, my words were good.

He was aggrieved, but he didn't dare to say it.

He deeply suspected that His Royal Highness was suddenly so abnormal, in fact, he couldn't bear his mediocrity anymore, and wanted to find fault and drive him out of the mansion.

*****

Early the next morning, Chun Yudai temporarily sent out the rest of the maids in the courtyard as usual, so that Li Fengming and Xin Wei could practice in the courtyard.

Before he could make ten moves, Li Fengming was beaten to tears.

She once set a rule for Xin Wei: even if she cried and begged for mercy and shouted to stop, Xin Wei couldn't relent, and she must be responsible and spurred her to insist on finishing half an hour of morning sparring.

In the past, she would have lasted half an hour while crying, but at the moment she was sleepless and distracted, and she knew that if she continued to hold on, she would be beaten all the time.

So under impulse, for the first time in her life, she ran halfway through the morning sparring session.

Seeing that Li Fengming ran out of the small courtyard in a reckless manner, Xin Wei was stunned and scratched his head violently: "Chunyu, do you think I should chase it?" ”

If she didn't chase her, she would have failed to fulfill the duty that her Highness had given her; But if you chase it out, then everyone in the Huaiwang Mansion will be eye-opening.

Chun Yudai also had a headache: "Or don't you?" The princess was chased by her own military attendants and cried, this kind of thing is strange in any country. Our Highness has always wanted to save face. ”

Over there, Li Fengming, who was cheating, regretted it as soon as he got out of the yard.

The rules were set by herself, and today's behavior of Lai Pi escaping was really inappropriate, and it damaged her own prestige.

But if she ran out and went back immediately, it would have seemed that there was something wrong with her brain.

Li Fengming stood under the courtyard wall, wiping away the tears on his face with his sleeves, unable to advance or retreat.

In a dilemma, Zhan Kaiyang came with a large stack of papermaking, and it seemed that he was going to the North Courtyard.

When he saw Li Fengming, he came up and saluted.

Li Fengming looked depressed when he looked depressed, and glanced at the stack of papermaking papers in his arms with a muttering heart: "Is there some terrible news released by the imperial court?" ”

"Back to the princess, it's all ordinary news," Zhan Kaiyang smiled bitterly, "Your Highness lost his temper yesterday because of the paper-making matter, I don't know what he wants, so I rearranged all of this overnight." But I'm worried that maybe something is wrong. ”

Li Fengming's eyes rolled, and he suddenly remembered: "He should still be performing martial arts at the moment." If you can trust me, come in with me and I'll help you see what's wrong. ”

Zhan Kaiyang's eyes lit up: "Thank you princess for your advice!" ”

So, Li Fengming swaggered back to the courtyard with Zhan Kaiyang, and said to Chun Yudai and Xin Wei: "I have something serious to say to him, not to cheat." ”

Xin Wei was very face-saving and didn't laugh out loud: "I believe it." ”

*****

In order to avoid causing a senseless turmoil, Li Fengming did not take Zhan Kaiyang into the study, and sat on the bench in the corridor of the atrium.

Chun Yudai summoned the maids sent out earlier back to perform their duties, and she herself stood next to Li Fengming with Xin Wei, so that she would not be talked about.

These details are self-contained and thoughtful, and Li Fengming didn't care about them at all.

She flipped through the paperwork, and asked Zhan Kaiyang a few more questions, and she roughly understood.

"The contents of your papermaking are well documented, and there are no major mistakes. He said that you are ugly, you should just be angry casually, and you don't have to take it seriously. ”

Zhan Kaiyang couldn't believe it: "There is really no mistake? ”

"There is no big mistake, but it is not impeccable," Li Fengming took a big turn and pointed out his shortcomings, "With the situation of your Royal Highness, I want to know this kind of news in order to quickly grasp the latest trends in the current affairs of the court." You're doing it cheaply, just stacking them on the date they were made, and not categorizing them. ”

For example, the main news the day before yesterday was: the promotion and transfer of two officials of the ministry; There are suspected signs of a large army build-up in the neighboring countries to the west; The Ministry of Household Affairs plans to begin verification of population increases and decreases in various localities in August this year.

And yesterday's main news was: Jing Zhao Yin Mansion dealt with the five rangers who fought in Nandang Street in Yongjing City last month and were banned by force; Honglu Dianke said that a certain nomadic tribe who had been a minister to Qi for many years had not come to Yongjing for three years......

"You presented it to him like this, and he looked at it one by one, and he felt that these things were a hammer in the east and a stick in the west, and it was strange that he was not irritable. Don't be wronged," Li Fengming pointed at Chun Yudai with his chin, "I don't believe you ask her what the consequences will be if she presents me with such a bunch of news." ”

Zhan Kaiyang looked at Chun Yudai in surprise and curiosity: "What will be the consequences?" ”

Chun Yudai: "If I present such a mess of things to my Royal Highness, I don't have to give any consequences to His Royal Highness, I will be ashamed to commit suicide first." ”

Zhan Kaiyang's focus deviated, and he was surprised and sighed in his heart: The woman of Wei is really extraordinary. The princess was just a princess before she got married, but she also paid attention to the current affairs of the court, and the maids who assisted her personally did not seem to be in the pool.

But he thought it was strange again.

It stands to reason that the princess used to pay attention to court affairs and current affairs, even if she was not the object of the family's key support and cultivation, she would never be dispensable.

How did you fall into a foreign country with relatives?

*****

Xiao Mingche didn't sleep well last night, and he was extremely irritable when he got up early.

So I went to the martial arts arena to find the whole team of guards to fight one by one, and they all screamed.

But still irritable.

Back in the North Courtyard, Uncle Jiang told him again that Li Fengming had found Aunt Jiang to accompany him, and he had already gone out with Xin Wei and was not in the house for breakfast.

So he finished his tasteless breakfast alone and went into the study.

casually flipped through the stack of paper that Zhan Kaiyang had rearranged and sorted, and it seemed to be different, and his mood finally improved slightly.

"Well done," he affirmed, with a blank face, "but it looks much better." ”

Zhan Kaiyang, who was praised, raised his eyebrows: "Thank you to the princess, she let Chun Yudai teach me." It's a pity that I haven't fully understood the rules of classification. The princess said that in the future, as long as they are in the mansion, I can go to Chunyu to study for half an hour every day......"

"Why did the princess help you?" Xiao Mingche interrupted him.

"When I came in the morning, I happened to meet at the gate of the front yard...... I don't know why she wants to help me. ”

Zhan Kaiyang thought for a moment: "Probably I feel sorry for you?" She mentioned that I didn't do my errands well, and I would be tired of you. ”

Xiao Mingche: "Oh. ”

He began to concentrate on flipping through the pile of sorted papers, calm on the surface, but his heart was suddenly rapid.

He thought, his heart beat suddenly, probably because the embarrassing stamina in the carriage yesterday came up again.

Or else? It can't be because I heard Li Fengming's words "maybe I feel sorry for him"?

Li Fengming and him are just "under the marriage of interests, the two sides agree on mutual benefit and symbiosis", how can there be a distressed or distressed statement.

After flipping through the paper and looking at it for a while, Xiao Mingche began to be irritable again.

I always feel that there is a fragrance everywhere in the study, which is the kind that Li Fengming used yesterday.

Why did you get this fragrance again? It bothered him.

When he was in the palace before, he had also been stained with this incense, but that was because the two of them had been lying in the tent together all night.

He didn't ...... with Li Fengming yesterday Oh, the carriage.

When I think of the carriage, I naturally think of that embarrassing scene.

Xiao Mingche stared at the palm print of his right hand, his gaze slowly moved to the fingertips, but he clenched his fist and hid it behind him.

It's a pity that this action is just to cover your ears and steal the bell, and it can't alleviate the state of impetuousness, restlessness, confusion in the mind, and imagination.

After a long time, he couldn't bear it anymore and ordered someone to call Zhan Kaiyang, who was revising the guest list of the celebration banquet.

"You go next door and ask Chun Yudai, when is the princess expected to return home?"

Zhan Kaiyang was shocked: "Your Highness, you are ......"

"She used the incense that didn't go away yesterday, and I had to ask her for a way to get rid of it immediately."

Xiao Mingche pretended to be calm and flipped a page of paper, as if he didn't notice that he suddenly burned from the tip of his ear to the base of his neck.

"I suspect that her incense is poisonous."

It disturbed that strange images kept flashing in his mind, and he couldn't stop at all.
