Xiao Rui ordered Gao Quan to go to the Champion Hou's Mansion and ask Zhuge Liuying to come to the Mansion tomorrow.

After Gao Quan came back, he said that Zhuge Liuying had agreed, and he would come tomorrow as promised. Originally, Xiao Rui wanted to use Zhang Ruoxi to connect with the Li Mansion, but Zhang Ruoxi went out of the city with his grandmother to worship the Buddha, and Xiao Rui didn't dare to find Xiao Qingqing, so he could only find Zhuge Liuying.

The next day, just after midnight, the sun showed its scorching temperature.

After Xiao Rui finished practicing martial arts, he hid on the recliner in the pavilion to enjoy the coolness, and the maid next to him peeled the purple grapes, took out the seeds with tweezers, and then hugged Xiao Rui's mouth, and the delicate fingers touched Xiao Rui's lips, causing the maid's cheeks to blush slightly.

Xiao Rui hurriedly closed his eyes, and shouted in his heart that it was rotten and rotten.

Zhuge Liuying came as promised and was brought to the pavilion by Gao Quan.

"Your Highness, Miss Zhuge is here." Gao Quan replied.

Xiao Rui hurriedly opened his eyes, and what caught his eye was Zhuge Liuying's long legs.

Forehead... Large legs hidden in the skirt.

In such a hot weather, she finally changed into a long dress, this is the first time Xiao Rui has seen her wearing women's clothes, it doesn't matter if she looks at it, her eyes are straight.

"What are you looking at?" Zhuge Liuying's face was rare for a hundred years, hey, today is really the sun coming out of the west.

Xiao Rui hurriedly got up from the recliner, there was no way, the one-meter-eight Zhuge Liuying was too tall, lying down and looking up made Xiao Rui not very comfortable, and he couldn't let Zhuge Liuying lie down, so he could only stand up.

"Please sit down, please take a seat." Xiao Rui said with a smile.

Zhuge Liuying glanced at the two maids and said, "His Royal Highness King Xian will really enjoy it, has he already left his martial arts behind and is not interested?" ”

Xiao Rui shouted: "If anything, I will defeat you, help you scare your father, and let him promise you to form a female soldier, so how dare I slack off, I get up at three o'clock every day to practice, rain or shine." ”

Zhuge Liuying actually snorted and scolded in a low voice, but the voice was extremely low, and Xiao Rui didn't hear it clearly.

“？？”

Xiao Rui was dumbfounded, I didn't shoot my buttocks, I slapped my long legs, and then a whip leg slapped my face?

"Say, if you come to me, you must have something to ask me." Zhuge Liuying returned to normal and asked.

Xiao Rui pointed out directly and said: "I heard that Li Shoufu's mother is seriously ill, and I happen to know a famous doctor, and I want to ask someone to help bring a message to Miss Li Ruoxue, to see if I can let this famous doctor diagnose and treat, it is inconvenient for me to see her." ”

Zhuge Liuying asked, "Are you trying to win over Li Shoufu?" ”

Xiao Rui shook his head and said with a smile: "Definitely! Li Shoufu sent a turning thunderbolt, any responsible fold passed through his hands, and he was guaranteed to be sent to the inner court, such a cautious person, do you think it is good to win him over? And even if he can win over, his niece is married to my second brother King Chu, and the Li family has already pressed the chips on him, will Li Shoufu still choose someone else? I just want to make a good connection. ”

Zhuge Liuying nodded and said, "It's good that you understand, so you don't need me to remind you." ”

Xiao Rui continued: "With this impossible Li Shoufu, it is better to serve the champion Hou, hehe, isn't it Miss Liuying?" ”

"Get out!" Zhuge Liuying scolded with a smile: "How about the famous doctor you introduced?" You must know that even the imperial doctor in the palace can't heal it! ”

"That's because they're not very skilled, trust me." Xiao Rui patted his chest and winked at him.

Zhuge Liuying nodded and agreed.

But there's still something I don't understand.

"How did you know Li Ruoxue? Why can't I see her? ”

Xiao Rui immediately closed his mouth.

…….

Zhuge Liuying left the Xianwang Mansion and made a detour to the Li Mansion.

"Sister Liuying, why do you have time to come to me?" Li Ruoxue asked.

Zhuge Liuying directly explained the intention, there was a famous doctor who could treat his grandmother's old cold legs, Li Ruoxue was overjoyed when she heard it, and hurriedly went to find his grandfather Li Mingchong.

Li Mingchong saw Zhuge Liuying and knew King Xian's kind help, although Li Mingchong didn't believe in Hua Tuo's medical skills, after all, even the imperial doctor couldn't treat it, but for the sake of the face of King Xian and the daughter of the champion Hou, he still agreed to let Hua Tuo try.

The next day, Hua Tuo entered Li's mansion to treat Li Mingchong's mother, and after some acupuncture and medicine, the effect was extremely obvious, and the pain was greatly reduced.

Hua Tuo told Li Mingchong: "Master Li, the old lady has a long time for this disease, and it will take more than half a year to cure it, and in the first month, you need daily acupuncture, and after a month, you can extend the time for seven days of acupuncture once, and you need to make medicine every day, don't forget." ”

Li Mingchonggui was the first assistant, and at this time he was also very grateful, bowing and sending gold.

Hua Tuo said again: "The grass people came to heal on the orders of His Royal Highness King Xian, Lord Li does not need to perform this great gift, as for these gold and silver, they can't be collected in the next place, so they will leave, and the grass people will come back tomorrow." ”

After speaking, Hua Tuo left.

On the same day, Li Mingchong invited Xiao Rui to a banquet and was ready to thank him.

But Xiao Rui refused, and the reason for refusal was that the mansion had just been opened and everything was busy.

Li Mingchong knew in his heart that this was busy, and he was unwilling to accept his gratitude, and it seemed that this favor was owed.

In fact, the reason why Xiao Ruixie never went was not that he deliberately put on a score or was afraid of being involved, but that he was worried about meeting Li Ruoxue.

In case it bumps in, a husband overturns the car directly, and it is unfathomable that he finally puts it on the table, and he becomes Meng Lang who deceived the girl.

This is a moment of deceiving his wife, chasing his wife to the crematorium.

It seems that I can only continue to create chance encounters, and find a chance to explain it well.

But right now, there's no chance.

Because of the news from the palace, Emperor Xia has convened the cabinet scholars, the six scholars, the five temples and temples, the imperial history of the Imperial Inspectorate, the Yin of the Heavenly Mansion, the governor of the five armies, the Zongren Mansion Commander, the Tongzheng Sitong political envoy, etc., and began to discuss the entry of the nine princes.

Emperor Xia means that the nine princes are not allowed to hold important positions in the department, and have no decision-making power, so they can only serve as deputies and learn government affairs.

Emperor Xia asked the heads of various departments for their opinions, and let them first choose the prince they thought was suitable for their department, and explain the reasons for the choice, how would it help this prince.

Will the heads of various departments refrain from picking?

Naturally not.

Because from now on, it is time to choose a camp, which is acquiesced by Emperor Xia, not a temptation.

Therefore, the heads of various departments launched a fierce competition, especially the eldest prince and the second prince, who were the most popular, after all, their identities were there. If you can invite them into your own department, then it will be easy to become a minister of the humerus in the future, and you will have the merit of following the dragon.

Among the nine princes, Xiao Rui was really unpopular.

Soon, the reasons and benefits of the selection of the prince were stated in various departments.

The next choice depends on Emperor Xia.

How to position it in the end depends on Emperor Xia's thoughts, but almost no one can guess Emperor Xia's thoughts.
