Chapter 138: The Bottom Line and Principles

Qi Dai just wanted to give a lecture but it was lunch time, and there was more time delayed in the morning today, and the conversation was wasted here, Ling'er explained to the little eunuch that he would not eat with His Royal Highness the Imperial Husband today, let him eat by himself, and Ling'er left Qi Dai to eat with him in the imperial study.

Qi Dai didn't say a word during the meal, it was completely the standard version of rice silence, Ling'er saw that he didn't speak and ate by himself, Ah Jue rarely spoke when he ate, it is estimated that the education he received when he was a child was also rice silence. After rinsing his mouth after eating, Qi Dai spoke: "Your Majesty, the minister has something to ask Your Majesty, and the minister also wants to go to various ministries to experience and experience like Zhuangyuan and Tanhua, and ask Your Majesty to give the minister a chance." ”

"You are now a young master, you are the third grade, in exchange for you to go to the six departments to practice, do you want to be a scholar? Which book do you think you can make? After Ling'er rinsed his mouth, he was amused by his words, like listening to a joke, with his age, he couldn't hold up anything, and his experience was not enough. Degrading him would attract unnecessary speculation, after all, the Qi family is now being squeezed out in the Imperial City.

"The minister doesn't dare, the minister ......" Qi Dai originally wanted to say that it would be good to be a low-level official in the Sixth Ministry, but the demotion for no reason would only make the Qi family, who had no place in the imperial city who had been excluded by the Wen family, even worse, originally thinking that it would be better if he left Ling'er, but if he was really demoted, he was afraid that he would be even more criticized.

"I also discussed with Ah Jue that day, and he is willing to learn from you, so you can teach him reluctantly, okay?" Ling'er wiped her hands and looked at Qi Dai with a smile, jokingly in a pleading tone.

"Your Majesty said this, the minister has no place to stand, how can there be any reluctance, the minister is afraid that His Royal Highness hates the minister, since His Royal Highness is willing to teach, the minister can only die." Qi Dai was so frightened that he knelt down when he heard Ling'er's words, and cold sweat broke out on his back.

"Get up, how can there be such a kneeling person who has been kneeling like this, didn't Xiao Azuo tell you, his sister Ling'er is not such a difficult person to get along with, so you don't have to be so restrained every day." Ling'er waved her hand at Xiao Taoxin, let them all go down, there are fewer Qi Dai should not be so restrained, he kept him just for his own selfishness and thoughts, sometimes he knew that Ah Jue would be angry, this is not right, but he couldn't help it.

"Your Majesty, aren't you taking a lunch break today?" Xiao Taoxin saw that Ling'er had even been exempted from the lunch break since she moved to the imperial study, which was really much busier than when she was His Royal Highness.

"No, take a quarter of an hour's rest, I will chat with Young Master Qi, and I will approve the chapter, and the young master will also teach me a lesson in a while." After Ling'er finished speaking, she snorted twice and cleared her throat, stood up and walked to the desk and sat down, looked at Qi Dai who was standing and hurriedly said, "Young Master sit down." ”

Qi Dai still did it to Ling'er in a restrained way: "I don't know what Your Majesty wants to talk about." ”

"Today's Ah Jue, Ah Jue, for what is it to get you another body of ink." At first, the emperor was not good at asking in Ling'er, but this time it happened to be fine, so it was all about small talk.

"Your Highness didn't mean it, the minister stood next to him, His Highness had no intention..."Qi Dai didn't want to say it, so it was Ah Jue's unintentional move to bite to death.

"There was one last time, and I'm not here this time, let's talk about it, feel free to talk, I won't punish him or you." Ling'er sat with her back against the seat, playing with the jade pendant on her waist.

"Actually, the minister doesn't know ......," Qi Dai laughed after speaking, and hurriedly added: "The minister always thinks that His Royal Highness doesn't like the minister." ”

"I don't like you, Ah Jue is a man, you are also a man, why do you like you, he only likes me..."

"The minister is saying, the minister means, yes, His Highness hates the minister." After Qi Dai finished speaking, he looked up at Ling'er, like a wronged little daughter-in-law asking for protection.

"You can't ask anything." Ling'er didn't continue Qi Dai's words, as if she hadn't heard that, and continued: "I guess Ah Jue won't say it either." This became a headless case. When you were teaching him, did you have any topics other than books? Ling'er raised her eyes and looked at Qi Dai, at this time he was completely different from Qi Rong, Qi Rong did not have such a lonely and aggrieved expression, Ling'er would definitely not hurt Ah Jue for Qi Dai, this is her bottom line, but she will protect the Qi family, this is her principle. On the premise of maintaining principles and sticking to the bottom line, Ling'er still wants to know some information.

"After chatting with the minister for a while, maybe the incense on the minister's clothes makes His Royal Highness unhappy..."Qi Dai is now more and more afraid of entering the palace, and he always feels that one day he will lose his head, even if he has no worries about his life, he can also be scared to death by Ah Jue for a while. Ling'er sometimes looked at herself, and when she wanted to look at her, she found that she was just looking at another person through herself, and her eyes were empty, so she was too tormented in her heart, not as much as before in Qi Mansion, at least her mother would protect her, although her father was rare, she also loved him.

"You see, in fact, you also know why it took me so long to ask, and the topic of grinding for so long was here. Definitely. Didn't you smoke before? Ling'er chatted about this with interest, but Qi Dai didn't like to continue.

"The minister's clothes are all handled by the mother, and it should be the mother's incense, and the mother has the habit of giving incense to the minister since she was a child. Moreover, in the imperial city, incense will be smoked in all families with official positions. Qi Dai wanted to express that he didn't smoke incense just to be alone with Ling'er.

"What does it smell like?" Ling'er was very curious, in fact, Qi Rong also had incense before, I don't know if it smelled like that.

"I don't know." How does Qi Dai know?

"Is it the same as the incense on the left?" Ling'er has smelled the fragrance of Zuozuo, which is the same as Qi Rong, it is estimated that it was all given by Mrs. Qi, I don't know if Qi Dai is also the same one.

"The things in my mother's place are all good, we are not the same, the incense on Zuo Zuo's body is the same as my brother's before, and the minister's is not that..." Qi Dai buried his head and chatted with Ling'er for a while, and he didn't dare to look at her, because he found that Ling'er didn't have any emotions for him at all. Good for your own family and good for yourself, it's all because of a dead person.

"I'll ask Taoxin to bring you some incense in the palace and go back, and change the taste, I don't like incense, and Ah Jue doesn't have this habit, the fragrance in the palace is light, but it lasts." Ling'er raised her eyes and looked at the little peach heart standing at the door, and the little peach heart blessed a blessing from the door and turned around to get incense.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Qi Dai wanted to stand up and thank him, but suddenly remembered Ling'er's words just now that he didn't let him kneel without moving, and sat down again when he was half-squatting up.

"Father is not here, Ling'er, don't you want to have lunch with me?!" Ah Jue didn't pass the word either, and walked in with a displeased face.

"I'm not going to take a lunch break today, there are still a lot of concerts, and the young master will have classes in a while, so I want to go back to accompany you early in the evening." Ling'er saw Ah Jue coming, and her face was full of smiles, which was different from the lazy smile gossip Ling'er just now.

"Little Peach Heart went to the library to find something, I saw that she ran away in a hurry." Ah Jue came over and sat next to Ling'er, waved his hand at Qi Dai, and Qi Dai sat down again.

"Prepare to reward the young master with some palace-made incense, the taste is light, and it won't make you unhappy." Ling'er said that this changed her appearance.

"The young master is here to complain about the lonely, what kind of incense, why don't the lone know." Ah Jue didn't wait for Ling'er to eat together, and she didn't see her come back, thinking that it would be difficult today, so she came to the imperial study and asked, the emperor was not there, Ling'er and Qi Dai were here, and they were really angry and had a stomachache.

"Ah Jue, the young master didn't say anything, you misunderstood." Ling'er originally wanted to dry him for a day and go back at night to give him Xiao's benefits, but who knew that he would run over by himself at noon.

"I want to be with you in the afternoon." Ah Jue didn't want them to be alone.

"Okay, you read here in the afternoon, just like yesterday, let's listen to a class together." Ling'er looked at the hourglass, the time was about the same, it was time to approve the chapter.

"In the future, as long as my father is not there, you will send someone to call me to accompany you, I have nothing to do in the palace myself, and the deep palace is lonely......" Ah Jue didn't think it before, but it was difficult to see Ling'er when she was busy these days.

"Well, I promise you." Ling'er didn't raise her head when she looked at the song, and stretched out her left hand to shake his hand.

Qi Dai hurriedly came forward to grind, and he didn't dare to say a word, in such an atmosphere, the torment in his heart was even worse than the torment of his body.

Entering the room of Zhilan, I didn't smell its fragrance for a long time, Ling'er didn't feel that there was a fragrance in the room every day after being in the imperial study for a long time, in fact, the palace incense in the imperial study every day was light and long-lasting. No matter how fragrant the fragrance smells for a long time, there is no feeling, no matter how good-looking the skin is, there is a day when you are tired of looking at it, the good-looking skin is the same, and the interesting soul is only one in a million. For the current Ling'er, Ah Jue is an interesting soul, and Qi Dai is just a good-looking skin.

Xiao Taoxin brought the incense after a while, stood at the door and saw that Ah Jue was also there, I didn't know whether to give it or not, I raised my eyes to look at Ling'er, and I didn't dare to ask. After Ling'er finished approving one, when she stretched her waist, she saw Xiao Taoxin, she looked like what should I do, standing there playing dumb riddles with Ling'er.

"What's the matter, just say anything." Ling'er didn't know what she was doing that.

"Your Majesty, the incense has been brought here." Little Peach Heart holds it in both hands.

"If you bring it, give it to the young master, or help him put it in the carriage when the young master leaves." Ling'er lowered her head again and continued to watch the performance.

Ah Jue only made time to take a good look at Qi Dai at this time, this guy is really good in his own clothes, but he doesn't wear this color for a long time, why doesn't it look ugly on him, who picked it for him, Yang Hao, you must scold him when you go back, you can't do anything you explain, let him find something Qi Dai wears that must be ugly!

"Ah Jue, if there is no result in the early discussion tomorrow, I will have to go to the palace to discuss with the Duke of Xuanwen. When the time comes, let Wen Guogong bring your mother with you, you haven't seen you for a few days, right? Ling'er suddenly remembered something, he was busy in the vestibule, and he was locked in a big cage in the palace in the backyard, and he was indeed wronged.

"Well, you don't like incense, and I didn't have the habit of incense when I was a child. That's why I asked the young master to change his clothes..."Ah Jue didn't explain, and suddenly said that Ling'er was stunned, turned his face to look at Ah Jue, and didn't speak, but just took his hand with his left hand, Ah Jue held Ling'er's hand, Ling'er was still his Ling'er.

Time passed in the fingers, and most of the hourglass was gone without approving a few chapters, Ling'er was also tired, stood up and walked, Ah Jue closed the book and looked at her.

"The young master will go to class, I will go back as soon as I have a good class, and I don't need a secretary here, and I don't have any will to send it for a while and a half." Ling'er moved a little at the door of the imperial study, shook her arms, and twisted her waist.

"Your Majesty and His Highness's classes are not synchronized, so they can't attend classes together." What Qi Dai said to Ah Jue every day was different from what the Taishi said to Ling'er, and the Taishi handed over Ling'er's class to him, which made Qi Dai feel a little embarrassed.

"The young master doesn't want to teach me a lesson..."Ling'er stood at the door and turned her face to look at it, and continued to exercise: "Then forget it, I still have to wait for the Taishi to come back." So that the young master can go back. ”

"The minister just thinks that His Majesty and His Highness are not in sync with learning, learning should be gradual, and learning together is not suitable for you and His Highness." Qi Dai hurriedly explained.

"Go back, I also have something to say to Ah Jue." Ling'er waved his hand and told him to leave, Qi Dai gave a salute and took the incense from Xiao Taoxin and withdrew.

"What?" Ah Jue walked down to Ling'er and exercised with her.

"Today, you embarrassed him again, and the emperor said that he would accept two noble husbands, the second son of Liu Cambodia's family and Qi Dai." Ling'er led Ah Jue to the desk.

Ah Jue didn't speak after listening.

"Don't worry, I refused, I just promised my father that you would treat Qi Dai well in the future, and your family would treat the Qi family well." Ling'er raised her head and smirked at Ah Jue, meaning I'm funny, praise me quickly.

"He didn't have such a heavy fragrance before, and today that fragrance is close to Du Xun's headache." Ah Jue thought about Qi Dai, obviously on purpose, but all the people only saw him splashing ink, and didn't see Qi Dai's careful thoughts, of course, careful thinking about such things is indeed not easy to detect, how can other people care, his careful thinking is only for Ling'er, and he cares about Ling'er so he will find out.

"Then you can't pour ink on him again in front of your subordinates, this is not the first time, and it will definitely be passed on to your father's ears when you come back." Ling'er held his hand and added strength, pouting as if annoyed.

"Father and Emperor used to match you and me, and now he has begun to match Qi Dai with you, I..." Whenever he says something, it will enter the ears of the emperor. I used to hope that I would help myself when I was good with Ling'er, but now I feel that my home is too conspicuous and I want to suppress it, Ling'er didn't see him dislike his own family when he was chattering and crying all day long, and he didn't pull it out single-handedly, and now he has to check and balance.

"I'm protecting you!" Ling'er raised her face and looked at him with her head held high, speaking very softly, but very seriously.

Ah Jue didn't say much, hugged her in his arms, and let go after a long time. I'm just a little jealous, what can I do if the royal husband bullies Qi Dai, it's not a big mistake, I'm just thinking carefully!

"There are still a few recitals, tomorrow will be early, let's go back to rest early after the approval, okay?" Ling'er felt Ah Jue's grievance, rubbed his face, and pulled him back to the table to sit down.
