[Chapter 5, Volume 5]

Chapter 180 180 Each has its own mind

Not to mention, the medicine in Huo Qingsong's hand for treating trauma is really very good, and in the afternoon, Lu Xiang'er's feet can walk on the ground. Although she still can't move too much, Lu Xiang'er can walk completely. Because of this, Huo Qingsong could no longer keep Lu Xiang'er and sent him back to the Lu family.

It may be that Huo Qingsong wanted to spend more time with Lu Xiang'er, but after arriving at Lu's house, he didn't return immediately. Lu Hong, who was working hard in the room, learned that Huo Qingsong was coming, so he immediately came out of his yard. Let Xiaocui make tea, and Lu Hong accompanied Huo Qingsong to talk in the living room.

Lu Xiang'er sat in the General's Mansion for a long time, and she really didn't want to sit down, so she went to the kitchen to prepare dinner with Grandma Sun. Seeing Lu Xiang'er's somewhat lame feet, Lu Hong was very puzzled, and it was not good to ask in front of Huo Qingsong, so he wrote down in his heart and asked again when he waited for the evening.

Huo Qingsong also saw Lu Hong's doubts, and was slightly embarrassed, so he talked about the palace exam a few days later. During these days, Huo Qingsong also inquired a lot about the palace examination for Lu Hong. Therefore, Lu Hong also knew from Huo Qingsong that among these students who participated in the palace examination, which of them could become his opponents.

"There is no first in the text, and there is no second in the martial arts. Brother Hong's martial arts, there is nothing to say, the key is this 'literary test'. Huo Qingsong's fingers were slightly clenched, and he gently knocked on the table next to him, and said slowly: "You should also have heard how His Majesty the Emperor attaches great importance to this martial arts." His Majesty's real intention is to choose a military general who is both civil and military in this martial arts. Therefore, the literary examination and the martial examination are equally important, and there is no distinction between priority and priority. ”

"In troubled times, as long as anyone can go to the battlefield, they can become 'generals'. In the heyday, if a 'military general' wanted to become a general, he must not only be able to fight, but also know how to strategize. The so-called, strategizing in the strategic, decisive victory thousands of miles away......"

"In this palace exam, you have to get ahead and become a 'great general'. The first thing you need to do is to let Your Majesty keep you in mind during the literary examination. To do this, it is not something that can be achieved by being familiar with the art of war and the book of war......"

Huo Qingsong said a lot, and Lu Hong nodded again and again when he heard it, and he also understood. Of course, for Huo Qingsong's dedication, Lu Hongke is very grateful. If it weren't for Lu Hong's semblance of sanity, he would have wanted Lu Xiang'er to marry into the General's Mansion sooner. In Lu Hong's eyes and heart, Huo Qingsong is a rare and outstanding person, if Lu Xiang'er doesn't hold him firmly in his hands, he will definitely regret it.

Just when Huo Qingsong and Lu Hong were talking happily, Huo Bao suddenly entered the living room and whispered a few words in Huo Qingsong's ear. Huo Qingsong's expression remained unchanged, but his eyes flashed. After Huo Bao finished speaking, Huo Qingsong nodded and said to Lu Hong: "If something happens in the house, I won't have dinner here." ”

When Lu Hong saw Huo Qingsong get up, he knew in his heart that he must be in a hurry, so he said, "Brother Huo, I'll call Xiang'er to send it off." ”

"No, her foot is injured and she doesn't have to run back." After Huo Qingsong finished speaking, he took Huo Bao out of the living room. Lu Hong had no choice but to personally send Huo Qingsong out of the gate.

When Lu Hong turned around and returned to the main room, Lu Xiang'er happened to come back from the backyard. Lu Hong didn't wait for Lu Hong to ask suspiciously, so he said: "Xiang'er, Brother Huo just left, I heard that it seems that something happened in the General's Mansion." ”

"Oh." Lu Xiang'er nodded, and slowly walked to the living room and sat down. When Lu Hong saw this, he took advantage of the fact that there were only two people in the living room to ask Lu Xiang'er about the foot injury. Lu Xiang'er was also a little embarrassed when she heard Lu Hong's inquiry. Even if Lu Hong is her brother, she can't say that she can't do it herself, and she wanted to kick Huo Qingsong but she was injured. After a long time, Lu Xiang'er simply said that she accidentally kicked the table foot.

Lu Hong looked at Lu Xiang'er's expression, which was an excuse to believe her. However, Lu Hong saw that Lu Xiang'er didn't want to say any more, so he didn't ask, but asked about Chaoxia. Lu Hong knew Lu Xiang'er's intention to go to the General's Mansion, and he was also worried about Chaoxia in his heart.

Speaking of Chaoxia, Lu Xiang'er immediately looked sad, and changed what Huo Qingsong said. However, as for His Majesty the Emperor's preference for the fourth prince Zhao Chengmin as the successor, Lu Xianger did not dare to tell Lu Hong. That matter is very important, and Lu Xiang'er doesn't want to get involved.

"Listen to him, Your Majesty is very bad to the Fourth Highness on the surface, but in fact, Your Majesty loves Your Highness the most." Lu Xiang'er rubbed her head and said softly: "Therefore, Your Majesty will never allow a civilian little lady to become the princess." Today, Qingqing and Sister Wen Yao were called into the palace by Concubine Song, and I don't know what kind of princess Concubine Song wants to find for the Fourth Highness. ”

"Xiang'er, do you mean that Your Majesty asked Concubine Song to choose the right little lady for the Fourth Highness?" After listening to what Lu Xiang'er said, Lu Hong's eyelids jumped. Thinking about what was in his heart, Lu Hong asked Lu Xiang'er quietly.

Lu Xiang'er nodded and said, "That's what he said, and there won't be anything wrong with it." ”

"The right door. Xiang'er, do you think that Little Lady Wen will become the fourth princess? Lu Hong lowered his head slightly, but his hand was rubbing the edge of the teacup.

Lu Xiang'er didn't notice Lu Hong's actions at all, and nodded again: "With Sister Yao'er's background, it's really about the same. However, Sister Yao'er knows the heart of the Fourth Highness, so she will not agree to be the Fourth Imperial Princess. ”

After finishing speaking, Lu Xianger was also a little unsure. Jingshi is a little lady like Wen Yao, although there are not many but there are also many. But this time, it was Concubine Song who elected the princess for the fourth prince Zhao Chengmin, and everything is really hard to say. Lu Xiang'er would not be naïve enough to think that there would be no palace fighting in the palace of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Lu Xiang'er remembers a sentence, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and there are endless battles. Concubine Song represents the Song family, and it is impossible to choose a little lady on the opposite side as the concubine of the four princes. On Concubine Song's side, Lu Xiang'er has heard of it, as long as Wen Yao is a suitable candidate.

The family can endure for a long time, and it is all by relying on eyesight and courage to marry the royal family. Song Beiqiao could guess that the fourth prince, Zhao Chengmin, would be the future emperor, how could he give up his marriage to Zhao Chengmin/without maintaining the glory of the Guogong Mansion. If Song Beiqiao really had this purpose, even if Wen Yao resisted, he would become the fourth princess for his family.

"Wen Xiaoniang is only a scholar, she has outstanding appearance, she has a good background, and she is the niece of Concubine Song......" Lu Hong counted Wen Yao's advantages, but his heart became heavier and heavier.

Although Lu Hong didn't know Song Beiqiao's guess, he knew that all of them could enter the royal family, and none of them were very good people. Moreover, Lu Hong still knew from Li Wenhao that Wen Yao was very favored by Concubine Song. How could Concubine Song let her niece not be a princess and marry other young sons.

Thinking that Wen Yao had become the princess, Lu Hong's heart suddenly trembled. Suddenly, Lu Hong finally found that he had someone he liked again. But it is unknown whether this person who likes it will eventually belong to him. With He Ya's experience, Lu Hong really didn't want to be disturbed by emotional injuries again.

"Xiang'er, did you just say that after the palace test, the princess will be selected for the four highnesses?" Seeing Lu Xiang'er nodded, Lu Hong breathed a sigh of relief.

When Lu Xiang'er saw Lu Hong's expression, she still thought that he was worried about Chaoxia, and said: "I just hope that during this time, Sister Chaoxia can marry other young sons." ”

"I think Li Gongzi is good." Lu Hong was thinking about something else in his heart, but his mouth was unconsciously talking to Lu Xiang'er. But without waiting for Lu Xiang'er to say anything, the thick curtain on the door moved, and then a slender figure entered the room.

When Lu Xiang'er saw this person, she immediately greeted him and said with a smile: "Sister Chaoxia, isn't it very cold outside, I see that you have such a heavy cold on your body." ”

"yes, it's getting late, but it's much colder than it was during the day." Chaoxia took off her cloak and hung it up, and went to the charcoal brazier with Lu Xianger to keep warm. Looking at the teacups on the table, Chaoxia asked casually, "What are you brothers and sisters talking about, the atmosphere is not very good." ”

"Sister Chaoxia, I'm chatting with Xiang'er about you." Lu Hong didn't wait for Lu Xiang'er to speak, so he preemptively said: "A-Niang asked Zao'er to ask Zao'er today, when is Sister Chaoxia free, go to accompany A-Niang to support a few parties." ”

"Party?" Chaoxia was slightly stunned, and soon understood what Lu Hong meant. Lu Erniang still wanted to take her to the party and find a family affair for her. Chaoxia thought that she had already told Lu Xiang'er about her heart last night, so she turned to Lu Xiang'er and asked with her eyes.

Lu Xiang'er didn't expect Lu Hong to be so direct, but she couldn't answer Chaoxia, so she glared at Lu Hong: "Brother, you go to the kitchen to take a look, Sister Chaoxia is also back, let's have dinner." ”

"I'll go." Lu Hong also felt that he was too anxious at this time, so he immediately walked out of the living room.

The morning glow was almost warm, so he sat down on a chair and looked at the charcoal brazier. When Lu Hong went out, she whispered: "Xiang'er, do you think that I am greedy for vanity and incompetent?" ”

"Sister Chaoxia, what are you talking about. In my heart, Sister Chaoxia is the best, and anyone who is worthy of Sister Chaoxia is Gao Pan. As soon as Chaoxia finished speaking, Lu Xiang'er replied without thinking. Chaoxia was amused by Lu Xiang'er's attitude, but sighed softly: "Xiang'er, I also know that it is impossible for me to be with him, but I can't let go of him in my heart." ”

"Sister Chaoxia......" Lu Xiang'er saw Chaoxia, who had never had such a gloomy and melancholy look, her lips moved slightly, but she didn't know what to say to comfort her.

Chaoxia is a few months older than Lu Hong, and she is still a little lady, so of course her mind is delicate. How could she not know the gap between her and the four princes. However, no one mentioned it, but Chaoxia was like a daughter's family, fantasizing in her heart that she had a good marriage with the person in her heart.

But Lu Hong's words just now pulled Chaoxia from fantasy to reality, so that she had to face Zhao Chengmin's identity. Seeing the worried look on Lu Xiang'er's face, as well as Lu Hong's expression just now, how could Chaoxia not know that Lu Hong also understood her thoughts.

If Lu Erniang knew about it again, she would have to worry about Chaoxia even more. Chaoxia doesn't want to be a good relative, all of them are sad for themselves. What Chaoxia hopes most at this time is to be like Lu Hong and slowly walk through this relationship. Sighing secretly, Chaoxia cheered up and smiled at Lu Xiang'er: "Xiang'er, don't worry about me, I know what I should do." Give me some more time and I'll forget about his ......"
