Li Dongyang sighed and said, "Okay. It's okay to go home and live for a while, and when you want to come to live in the senior brother's house, you can come at any time. ”

Zhang Yue said, "Senior brother, I'll go back and pack my things." ”

Li Dongyang nodded. Zhang Yue turned around and walked out.

Yuan Mo had been staring at Zhang Yue intently, and when he saw Zhang Yue leaving, he said to Li Dongyang, "Senior brother, I'll help her clean up." Without waiting for Li Dongyang to reply, he also followed out of the room.

Li Dongyang looked at the backs of Zhang Yue and Yuan Mo and shook his head.

In Zhang Yue's room in the Li Mansion, the luggage had been almost packed, and Xiaotong cleaned up the somewhat messy room.

Zhang Yue and Yuan Mo sat on the table drinking tea, Yuan Mo glanced at Zhang Yue, and said tentatively,

"Actually, if you don't want to go home and live, you can move to one of my other courtyards in the capital, and I live there now..."

Zhang Yue raised his eyebrows and glanced at Yuan Mo, "I don't want to, if I move to you, wouldn't I find anger for myself every day." ”

Yuan Mo pursed his lips lightly, "I won't give you ...... anger"

Zhang Yue said disdainfully, "Then I won't go, I'm going home, I miss my parents and younger brothers a little." ”

"Okay then." Yuan Mo pouted helplessly.

In the afternoon, the Li Mansion specially sent a carriage to send Zhang Yue and Xiaotong back to Zhang's house.

Zhang Yue's mother, Jin, heard that her daughter was back, although she was a little surprised, she was very happy, and took her daughter's hand to ask about her life in the Li Mansion in the past few months, and what official eunuchs and family members had she met with Mrs. Li? Did you know some official ladies, Zhang Yue barely coped with a few words, then said that he was tired and went back to his room.

After not coming back for a few months, Zhang Yue's room is still clean and tidy. She asked Xiaotong to put away her clothes neatly, lie on the bed by herself, and close her eyes to recuperate.

Xiao Tong folded his clothes, peeked at his own young lady a few times, and said, "Miss, Xiao Tong didn't dare to ask before, we live well in Li Mansion, Young Master Dongyang and Mrs. Dongyang are so good to us, why did you move back?" ”

Zhang Yue rubbed his temples and said, "Although my senior brother and sister-in-law are good to us, we can't live in the Li Mansion for the rest of our lives, we always have to go back to our own home." ”

Xiao Tong muttered, "But after moving back, it won't be easy for us to see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince again?" ”

Zhang Yue turned his head and glanced at Xiao Tong, "Who was indignant at the gate of the East Palace before, complaining again and again." ”

Xiao Tong blushed slightly, plucked up his courage and said, "Miss, Xiao Tong was just angry that day, the guards of the East Palace had such a bad attitude towards you, and then ..... Later, Xiaotong calmed down and thought about it, the prince was in such a dangerous situation before, miss, do you think the prince is afraid of affecting you, so he treats you like that? ”

Zhang Yue's eyes quickly flashed a trace of complicated emotions, "Yes, no, in short, he has nothing to do with us." Don't talk about him again. ”

Xiaotong seemed to have something to say, but seeing that Zhang Yue's face was not good, he didn't speak.

In the big tree in the courtyard outside the house, there was a disturbing sound of cicadas.

In the blink of an eye, Zhang Yue has moved home to live in China for more than half a month, and in this half month, Zhang Yue has hardly gone out, chatting with her mother during the day, or accompanying her little brother Trillium to review his homework.

During this period, Li Dongyang came to ask her to come over in the name of Liu, but Zhang Yue refused for various reasons. Yuan Mo asked people to send letters a few times, asking her to come out for dinner and chatting, but Zhang Yue also refused.

According to Zhang Yue's own words, he was too crazy outside in the past few months, and he had to cultivate himself at home during this time.

However, this time left a lot of free time, she seriously read the content of the next volume of Xuanwei recorded by her master, although the ancient tadpole text is obscure, but Zhang Yue looks smooth, the military ideology and strategy in it, governance strategy, etc., Zhang Yue is not interested, and skips it directly. However, there are many military formation maps recorded in it, as well as military fortification maps, equipment maps, and even the topography of major mountains and rivers, which are illustrated and vivid, and the design is exquisite, which aroused Zhang Yue's great interest, and she was bored to look at these pictures and texts.

The door of Li Dongyang's study was closed, and a handsome man was sitting behind the bookcase, but this person was not Li Dongyang, Li Dongyang was standing respectfully opposite the bookcase at this time, bowing his head slightly, and carefully replying to the man's question behind the bookcase,

“...... Your Highness, after the Taishan earthquake event. Your position is becoming more and more stable, and the emperor asked you to assist the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Industry, and there is also a sense of dependence, after this warning from heaven, no one dares to mention the abolition of the establishment, not even the emperor dares to mention it. Congratulations to Your Highness. ”

The handsome man was the crown prince Zhu Youjiao, he listened to Li Dongyang's reply calmly, and the smart and lovely girl's face suddenly flashed in his mind, and he was silent for a moment,

"Dongyang, this matter has made you bother."

Li Dongyang was shocked, and hurriedly bent down and said, "Dongyang doesn't dare, it's Dongyang's duty to share worries for His Highness, besides, ...... Besides, the ministers did not contribute much in this matter, from monitoring the Taishan earthquake, to coming up with a way to use the warning from heaven, to persuading Lord Zhou Hongmo, it was the minister's junior sister Xiao Wu who was contributing. ”

Li Dongyang didn't know if it was his own delusion, when he mentioned Zhang Yue, he felt that Zhu Youzhang's eyes were momentarily distracted, and when he looked closely, he had returned to normal.

Zhu Youzhu said calmly, "Also...... Worked hard for her. Didn't she come to the house today? ”

Li Dongyang said, "Back to Your Highness, yesterday I sent someone to Zhang's house in the name of an insider to invite her to a gathering at the house, and sent someone to inform her in person, and Ji Gongzi also looked forward to meeting her." But...... But Xiao Wu was the same as the previous times, Xiao Wu politely refused. ”

Zhu Youzhu replied softly, "Hmm! ”

Li Dongyang peeked at Zhu Youzhang's face and said, "I heard Xiao Wu's maid say that Xiao Wu went to the East Palace to ask for a meeting with His Royal Highness, but His Highness never met. Of course, the minister knew that His Royal Highness was afraid of implicating Xiao Wu at that time, but Xiao Wu was straightforward, and he was afraid that he would misunderstand His Highness. The minister will explain it clearly to Xiao Wu as soon as possible. ”

Zhu Youzhang's eyelashes twitched slightly,

"No need."

"Yes."

"Dongyang, there is a vacancy in the Ministry of Rites, I recommended you to Lord Zhou of the Ministry of Rites, presumably it is time to come down in the next few days."

Li Dongyang was shocked in his heart, the Ministry of Rites and Ceremonies is a four-grade official, although the official quality is not high, but he is in charge of the ceremony, military etiquette and management of academic affairs, imperial examinations and other affairs, which is very important, the prince has just been appointed as an assistant minister, and he actually won this position from the Ministry of Rites for himself, his heart was hot, and then he knelt down, "Thank you Your Highness for your support, Dongyang will do his best for His Highness to repay the kindness of his knowledge." ”

Zhu Youjiao's eyes were deep, and he waved his hand, "Don't be polite, get up." ”

Li Dongyang stood up, his chin bowed and his eyes lowered, but his eyes were full of joy.
