Ling'er got dressed, removed the hair that had been scattered, and waited for Ah Jue to comb it for her again, and after going out, Ah Jue was still waiting for Ling'er to eat together at the table.

"Ah Jue, I'm going to starve to death, I want to eat first." Ling'er sat at the table, picked up the bun and ate it.

"Eat slowly, I didn't even eat and wait for you." Ah Jue stood up, brought the porridge to Ling'er, and asked her to drink the porridge first, "Drink the porridge first, you sit still, I will tie your hair in a bun at will, and then make one seriously when you have a good meal." ”

"Yiyi is a woman's bun, I want to change it too, will you? No, forget it, even the men's. "Ling'er is drinking porridge and eating steamed buns, although breakfast is simpler than in the palace, but Ling'er is hungry and thinks it is really a delicacy in the world!

"Let's make a simple one first, and I'll try it when I come back for a good meal." Ah Jue is also not sure, because he has never combed a woman's hair bun, to be exact, except for Ling'er, he has never combed anyone's hair. After saying that, Ah Jue simply tied Ling'er's hair and sat down to eat with her, because Ah Jue was also hungry.

"What did you do with deer blood wine just now?" Ah Jue asked.

"Eat silently, sleep silently, this is what you taught me." I don't know if I can tell Ah Jue what happened just now, Ling'er chose not to say it first.

"......" Ah Jue glanced at Ling'er, and then ate. After eating, both of them were too lazy to move.

"It's better to have a better life, so I'll do everything myself." Ling'er looked at the table and complained.

"I'll come later. What did you just do in there? "Ah Jue still doesn't give up.

"I'll ask the master in a while, I don't know if I can tell you, if I can tell you again, it's not that I want to hide it from you, it's just that I don't know if I can say it." Ling'er is also very frank with Ah Jue.

"Good. But you really can't drink anymore! I won't take care of you if you drink again! Ah Jue was deeply hurt by Ling'er's drinking, and he was taking care of him, busy before and after.

"Yes, Uncle Seven, thank you for taking care of me." Ling'er looked at Ah Jue with a mischievous smile.

"You don't know that you drank deer blood wine, your face was flushed, and you took off your clothes randomly, I can't help but tie you up, and you suddenly pull me..."

"Just what?" Ling'er pulled his hand away, leaned on his face and looked into his eyes, looking nervous.

"Just, just, bite me, bite my hand." Ah Jue's mind was spinning rapidly.

"I bite your hand, what are you going to do covering your mouth!" Ling'er glared at him, thinking about a false alarm, and thought it was like it in a dream.

"Hurry up and eat, Senior Brother is also worried about you, if you go to him in a while, he may have to return to the Imperial City tomorrow." Jue began to change the subject.

"Why do you leave tomorrow, so anxious." Ling'er was in a hurry, she was drunk twice in a strange place, and the crown princes of various countries were here, which made her very helpless, and after saying that, Ling'er didn't care about her image, so she ran to find the master.

When I came to the place where the master lived, I knocked on the door: "Master..."

"Ling'er? Come in, the door is not locked for the teacher. The master shouted inside.

Ling'er pushed the door in, and the master was also eating breakfast, "Has Ling'er eaten?" Sit down for a bite to eat? ”

"No, master, I've eaten it. A jue's porridge bun. Ling'er found a seat next to her and sat down.

"I heard Ah Jue say that the master will go back tomorrow. Isn't the master here to accompany Ling'er anymore? Ling'er was a little anxious.

"I want to wait for you to wake up, explain something to you, and leave. The ministers over there in the imperial city still can't rest assured that His Majesty and Niangniang are still relieved. After the master finished eating in two bites, he chatted with Ling'er.

"Didn't you say it's all arranged?" Ling'er asked.

"It's all arranged, the minister hasn't left His Majesty for so long, and I still want to go back early." The master looked to the east, and the safety of the emperor and queen and Ling'er was his life's work.

"Master this time, how can Ling'er communicate with you?" Ling'er didn't know how to talk to her master about the righteousness, so she wanted to see if she could talk to her father.

"This is also for the teacher to explain to you, there are bar-headed geese and rain cranes in the backyard are specially designed to deliver news, His Royal Highness uses that bar-headed goose, the first row of the third cage raised, every time the news is transmitted..." His Royal Highness's calligraphy and handwriting are recognized by His Majesty. The box on the foot of the bar-headed goose has a key lock, and I will give you the key in a moment, and give you the number of the bar-headed goose. ”

"Ling'er knows." Ling'er said happily, and then whispered in the master's ear: "Master, the prince of Nanyue and the eldest daughter of Beimeng are here, do you know?" I started by marrying Jin Lan with them to get the deer blood wine. ”

"Well, this is known to the teacher, and this is also what His Majesty has told me." The master then said, "You can get along with them." ”

"Then can I tell Ah Jue?" Ling'er asked.

"Yes, as long as you feel like he trusts him enough." The master looked at Ling'er with a smile: "Have you and Ah Jue been heart-to-heart now?" ”

"Master, what nonsense!" Ling'er was embarrassed.

"Your Majesty's expectation for His Highness here is to have a good relationship with Ah Jue, to have a common heart, and to be kind and loving; It also has good relations with the crown princes of various countries, and the three countries have friendly relations in the future; Learn swordsmanship. ”

"My father asks too much of me." Ling'er pouted and complained.

"His Royal Highness is the crown prince, how can it be easy to be the crown prince." The master looked at Ling'er and was also very doting. "Just now I got the news from the bar-headed goose for the teacher, your husband is on the way, it will take a while to arrive, and you will practice swords in the morning and evening, and Mr. Wang will teach you books during the day."

"Sir knows he's coming!? Grinding and grinding is still in a carriage, cut! "Ling'er still doesn't have a good impression of that gentleman.

"The gentleman that the master chose for you, it must not be bad, don't say this about him, in this day of learning swordsmanship, he still taught you, isn't it, how can you respect the teacher, my apprentice is a good boy who respects the master" The master looked at Ling'er and listened to her seriously. "Mr. is not here these days, you can relax, practice more swordsmanship, and if you have nothing to do, you can also ask Senior Brother Sheng to take you to the mountains to go around and hunt game."

"Really, you can also go up to the mountains to hunt game?" Ling'er's eyes lit up when she heard this.

"You come back to discuss with Senior Brother Sheng, and tell your master that you can go." The master looked at this apprentice with everything written on his face, and it was still early to see the real dislike, but she was still a child, wasn't she, thinking of this, the master remembered the bar-headed goose, "Let's go, Your Highness, let's go and see the bar-headed goose." Then he got up and took Ling'er to the backyard.

"Master, does the bar-headed goose have a name?" Ling'er asked curiously.

"This one only has a number, maybe no name, your master has a lot of bar-headed geese." The master replied.

"I'm trying to name my bar-headed goose, master, what is a bar-headed goose?" Ling'er asked curiously.

Walking into the inner courtyard, there was a lot of birdsong, and Ling'er saw a lot of geese raised here, so big, with some spots on their heads.

"It turns out that they are called bar-headed geese, why did you choose them?" Ling'er asked.

"They fly high, they can fly over mountains and valleys, and they are the only ones who are the most suitable to spread the news from here, and they are fast, and they can go back and forth in a day." The master looked at the number and found the pair of geese that belonged to Ling'er. "Look, that's it, Your Majesty has raised His Highness in Shu for a long time, and it has finally come in handy. It just came back, it's a pair of bar-headed geese, the male and female are all numbered the same, and you can only send one when you go out, remember? ”

"Well, it's the same as a pigeon, isn't it?" Ling'er remembered the pair of pigeons she had raised in the palace.

"It's pretty much the same, it's just that the habits are not quite the same. This is your sixth uncle taking care of him, just ask him about anything. The master said seriously.

"Yes, Ling'er remembered, it turns out that geese are also in pairs, it's good." Ling'er looked at the geese and smiled as if she was worried. "What's over there?" Ling'er pointed to the crane on the other side and asked.

"That's the messenger of Nanyue, the rain crane. They only send letters to Nanyue, and they belong to your senior brother Sheng. The master looked at the cranes and said.

"What is Beimeng used for?" Ling'er asked.

"Beimeng, like us, also uses bar-headed geese, I don't know which pair they are, the rest of the bar-headed geese are your master's own." The master said.

"Let's go back, master." Ling'er still has something to say to her master, and she wants to go back to the house to say it.

Entering the house, Ling'er closed the door: "Master, Ah Jue said that Yiyi always pestered him, if she was the eldest princess of Beimeng, I couldn't ask her to pester Ah Jue anymore." Ah Jue just doesn't come with me, and he can't find the princess of Beimeng. ”

"This, it's hard for the minister to say this, Your Highness can do it yourself, you can't hurt the friendship between countries, this is the principle of Your Majesty and Shigong, the safety of all of you is their bottom line, don't violate the principle, don't touch the bottom line." The master thinks how to tell Ling'er about this, he can't say it.

"Let me think about it." Ling'er doesn't know what to do, but in any case, you can't ask Yiyi to find Ah Jue, General Wen is guarding the northern frontier, if his son is a horse in Beimeng, what kind of northern Xinjiang is this guarding, the old general Wen in Northern Xinjiang has been gone for decades, it is difficult to change people, and the emperor still trusts him very much, so Yiyi and Ah Jue are absolutely not good, look at Yiyi to Ah Jue, Ling'er is no longer like before. "Master, I'll go back first, and I'll see you off later. Master, goodbye will be a year or two later, take care, take care of yourself, and protect the people you want to protect. Ling'er said to the master with a smile, tears in her eyes.

"Okay, my little apprentices have become crybabies recently, come on to learn swordsmanship, and the master will go back and collect good swords for you." The master patted Ling'er's shoulder and smiled bitterly. "Actually, I think you're afraid that Yiyi will snatch Ah Jue, why don't you grab it yourself, wouldn't Ah Jue be Ling'er's Ah Jue, it's not difficult to confirm your intentions."

"Master!" Ling'er stomped her feet and ran away a little helplessly.

When she returned to the house, Ah Jue was there to pack up the things she brought, and when she saw Ling'er coming, she turned her head and said to her, "You, with such hair, took a long time to come back." ”

"Then you can comb it for me." Ling'er came in and sat at the table, waiting for Ah Jue to comb her hair.

"When I'm done cleaning up, I'm still thinking about how to comb the woman's hair, there's nothing to do today, how about I use your hair to practice my hands?" Ah Jue turned around and packed up her things while talking to Ling'er.

"Well, okay, it's really nothing today, it's all up to you." Ling'er sat at the table thinking about her thoughts, a little distracted.

"You just went to ask Senior Brother, did he agree with you telling me?" Ah Jue asked.

"Well, agreed." Ling'er replied absentmindedly.

"Then you say, what's going on?" Ah Jue saw that she didn't say anything after she finished speaking, and turned her head to look at her.

"Well, heart-to-heart, affection, love." Ling'er didn't know what she was thinking, so she told the master what the emperor expected of her and Ah Jue.

"What? What kind of heart-to-heart, affection, love, who is with whom? Ah Jue was anxious, and walked over to sit next to Ling'er and looked at her and asked.

"Huh? What is the same heart, affection and love? Ling'er saw him, came back to his senses and said.

"What you just said! You don't want to tell me, forget it, you don't have to do anything! Ah Jue complained!

"You comb my hair, I have something to tell you." Ling'er came back to her senses and was ready to have a good chat with Ah Jue.

"Okay, if you talk like that just now, I won't comb your hair!" Ah Jue picked up the comb, looked at the little girl in the mirror, and scared her.

"Ah Jue, anyone can do it, Yiyi can't!" Ling'er told him this thoughtlessly, and when Ah Jue heard it, she didn't comb it anymore, and sat next to Ling'er angrily, looking at her.

"Ling'er, if you believe me, tell me, you don't have a word here, or don't say it!" Ah Jue was angry.

"Ah Jue, you comb a man's hair for me, I still have something to do, I'm in a hurry to go out, and I'll tell you when I come back." Ling'er wanted to go to Murong Yiyi, she had been pestering Ah Jue, not Ah Jue pestering her, the problem was not Ah Jue, and it was useless to tell Ah Jue.

Ah Jue didn't speak, stood up and combed Ling'er's hair in a man's bun at will, Ling'er didn't speak the whole time, and when Ah Jue combed it, she went to get her sword and ran away!

"Ling'er, where are you going with your sword?!" Ah Jue saw that she was not right, and followed behind in fright.

"You go back! Don't follow me! Don't come out! Ling'er saw Ah Jue running out with her, turned around and went back to lock Ah Jue in the house.

Ling'er ran to the front yard: "Murong Yiyi, you come out!" ”

Yiyi pushed open the door: "Shouldn't you call the second sister?" What's up? Yo, still holding a sword, want to duel?! Yiyi opened the door, leaned against the door frame, looked at Ling'er, and said with a smile but not a smile.

"Come on, I heard that there is a tradition of dueling in Beimeng, and it's not too rude! The duel between the two of us was Murong Ling'er looking for Murong Yiyi to duel, and he didn't want to do anything with the country. Ling'er looked at Yiyi with a firm look.

"There must be a reason for the duel, why are you looking for me to duel." Yiyi still looked at Ling'er with a smile.

"You like Ah Jue, I will duel with you, if I win, you are not allowed to provoke him, if you win, I will not care about you." Ling'er still had the same expression just now, looking at Yiyi with firm eyes.

"I fell in love with Uncle Seventh at first sight, you just have a marriage contract with him, you don't have the same heart with him, and you are not a pair of people who are kind and loving in those books, he doesn't fall in love with you, you don't fall in love with him, your marriage contract is nothing in my opinion, I duel with you, I can't provoke the person I like if you win, you lose, I provoke him and he ignores me, I still haven't won!" Yiyi said, went to the room and brought his own sword: "You can duel if you want, you win, I won't provoke Ah Jue again, if you lose, you will let Ah Jue come to Beimeng to marry as the crown prince of East China!" I'll duel you! ”

After saying that, Yiyi came out of the house, walked ten steps away from Ling'er, drew his sword, pointed at Ling'er and said, "How is it?" ”

"It turns out that Miss Yiyi is making such an abacus!" This time, Chang Ling'er smiled, "It's a duel between the two of us, and it's not about between countries." ”

"Do you say yes or not?" Yiyi looked at Ling'er defiantly.
