"The lotus leaves are infinitely green, and the lotus flowers are different red."

"The anti-terrorist white bird is seen from time to time, and the red fram is fragrant in the water."

"The red lotus leans on each other as if drunk, and the white bird is speechless and sad"

"Hold the hibiscus with no hands, and the virtual step is too clear."

"Thinking of mapping the sparse forest, the riverside area is old."

"When Xuan is on the wine, the hibiscus is open on all sides."

……

Green Tangerine and Mozhu looked at each other, and for a moment they didn't know what to say. Some of the maids next to them couldn't help laughing, thinking that the relationship between their prince and the county lord was very interesting, they had never seen anyone who wanted to fight poetry because of quarrels, thanks to the two of them with rich knowledge, you come and I don't let each other, back and forth I don't remember how many times.

This has to start from Qi Shu and Ning Ze both entering the pavilion.

Qi Shu and her slave maid entered the back garden together, and went to the pavilion arranged by the prince in advance, the pavilion of the palace was also built on the water, surrounded by lotus ponds, and the lake was full of lotus flowers, so they were also surrounded by lotus flowers.

"Miss County Lord, you wait here first, the prince instructed us to serve you first, and he will arrive later, we have prepared some handicaps, you can use them slowly." The maid also knew Qi Shu's identity, and she also knew that her prince was not ordinary to her, so she was naturally polite and thoughtful.

Qi Shu nodded at her, and then looked at the things they had prepared on the table, which were very complete, including wine pots, teapots, and a few bowls of sour plum soup, as well as fresh melons and fruits, as well as candied peanuts and melon seeds, etc., wouldn't the melon seeds on this hot day get on fire? Qi Shu hesitated.

She has been lazy lately, and she hasn't seen Dr. Qiu much, so she will take an hour to help another day.

"What's the daze? A sucker! Ning Ze walked over from afar and found that she was staring at the things on the stone table, looking very distracted, she didn't know what she was looking at, she didn't notice it when she got closer, Ning Ze waved it in front of her.

"Huh? Yes? Qi Shu suddenly came back to his senses and looked at him suspiciously, blinked, and his consciousness regained clarity, and then looked at Ning Ze suspiciously.

"I said, what are you in a daze? So stupid and stupid. Ning Ze smiled helplessly, there was really nothing he could do with her.

Of course, Qi Shu wouldn't tell him what she was thinking just now, but Ning Ze, who was wearing a light blue robe just now, was now changed into a moon-white robe, obviously he went to change his clothes just now, and seeing that there was still some moisture on his face, he thought that he should go to the bath.

Qi Shu's eyes were a little unkind, and he looked Ning Ze up and down, signaling that they were also very hot, and they also wanted to change their clothes.

Of course, Ning Ze understood what she meant, and raised his eyebrows to demonstrate: "If Miss County Lord also bathes and changes clothes, you can use the ones in my house, you don't have to be polite, as for the clothes, just ask your maid to call someone from the ready-to-wear store to come over." ”

"Thank you Lord for your hospitality, this is naturally unnecessary." He knew that he would never change clothes in her mansion!

"In that case, why don't you sit down and rest and see how my gazebo is viewed?" Ning Ze's tone was a little uncalm, although the maids around him were surprised in their hearts, the prince who was originally cold and didn't like to talk much seemed to be a different person in front of Qi Shu.

Ning Ze waved his hand and signaled those who couldn't use it to go down, don't be an eyesore here, just leave some waiters by your side. As for Mozhu and Green Orange, they naturally can't go, if they leave, what if Ning Ze does something to his own young lady?

"County Lord, you see that this lotus flower is blooming very well today, why don't we chant it?"

"Please also ask the prince to give advice." Qi Shu was also aroused, on such a hot day, she was not allowed to eat melons and fans at home, and she was dragged out, what good was it for him? Well? What's in it for you?!

"Okay, then I'll come first!"

"Please!"

……

So, this has the beginning of this scene, the two of you are talking about the heat of the day, and no matter whether the poems about the lotus flower they recite are sad or meaningless, they only know that they can talk nonsense, as long as they can suppress each other in momentum, they have achieved an overwhelming victory.

"Don't make trouble, don't make trouble, I can't say you, I can't say you!" Ning Ze couldn't help but be funny when he saw Qi Shuxiao's face flushed and was about to compete with him, forget it, good men don't fight with women.

"The prince is too humble, if he uses all his strength, Qi Shu is not an opponent." Qi Shu knew in her heart that if she really learned from her, she really couldn't compare to her.

"Where, where, the literature is exhausted." Ning Ze shook his head and said politely, the originally relaxed look on his casual face suddenly converged.

The maid next to her understood, knowing that the prince was going to say something serious to the county lord, so it was inconvenient for them to listen to it, so they quietly retreated.

Green Tangerine and Mo Zhu glanced at each other, and then at Qi Shu, Qi Shu himself also sensed that there might be something important, and nodded at them and motioned for them to go down first.

Seeing the maids gradually walking away, Ning Ze turned his back and walked to the pavilion, looking at the lotus pond in the distance.

"Ah Shu, what do you think of Nalan Hehe coming to Shaoliang?" Ning Ze's tone was a little unclear.

"How? Coming to visit my sister? Qi Shu is not stupid, knowing that Ning Ze is tricking her, she is not so stupid.

"As the old saying goes: learning is like sailing against the current, and if you don't advance, you will retreat. The same is true of statecraft, if there is no progress, it is regression. ”

"What's the matter, going with the flow is not also going along with the way of heaven."

"If you can change your life against the sky, why do you go in vain?"

"Nothing in this world is beyond your control, all I can do is move forward according to my own will, and as for the others, I have no time to take care of them."

"This contradicts what you said about being poor and helping the world."

"There are some things that you have glimpsed what is coming, if I can have a turning place, I will definitely help, if it is inevitable, Ning Ze, I am also selfish, I will naturally focus on protecting myself."

"If the country is going to die and the people are displaced, will you do the same?" Ning Ze couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, Qi Shu shouldn't think like this, he should look at the same long-term as him.

"The number of qi, the number of fate, the number of fortune, all of them."

"Nalan Jihe still doesn't give up, what I'm worried about is that he secretly made small moves, and it is easy to dodge the open gun and difficult to defend against the dark arrow."

"According to your usual temperament, you don't look like someone who will be jealous of him, did you find something?" Nalan Hehe is indeed not ordinary, but it has not reached the point where Ning Ze cares so much.

"This is a mistake, Wei Guo has suffered several times from this Nalan Hehe, how can he not be careful? Besides, His Majesty also told me to pay more attention to his movements. Ning Ze was not panicked at all, but was very calm.

"That's right, although this person looks ordinary and looks ordinary, but it gives me the feeling that it's better to be cautious."

"I'm relieved to hear you say something like that." Ning Ze shook his head, sure enough, he was a little too worried, Ah Shu was so picky and tricky, how could he like such a man? To like it, I like him like this.

"Ashu, what do you think of the general trend in the world?" What Ning Ze said before does not refer to the matter of learning, this governance of the country is the same, if the country is not able to govern the prosperity of the day, then to a certain extent, the country is in a period of regression, the prosperity on the surface cannot cover up the ruin under the prosperity.

What's more, now His Majesty does not want to give way to Ji Nan, and Ji Nan is already an adult, according to the edict of the first empress, the world is bound to return to the hands of the Ji family.

In fact, Ning Ze asked this to see who Qi Shu would stand on, after all, as far as Ning Ze's current identity is concerned, he is a close minister of the Son of Heaven, but he is also a close confidant of Prince Ji Nan, and this embarrassing dual identity also makes it impossible for everyone to see which side he is on. Before he clearly stood in line, Ning Ze would not easily expose his tendencies, nor would he fall into the hands of others.

This is what Ning Ze vaguely wanted to tell Qi Shu, but on the surface, he said that he was concerned about Nalan and He's actions, and Nalan and He actually represented other countries or forces, so under the premise of the huge possibility of foreign enemy invasion, what kind of mentality would Qi Shu have.

To be honest, Ning Ze felt a little negative about Qi Shu's idea of "conforming to nature, conforming to the way of heaven, and ruling by inaction", as a courtier, the most basic and most important thing is to maintain social order, maintain stability in the court, and be loyal to the monarch and patriotism.

"How can the general trend of the world be followed by you and me?" Qi Shu shook his head: "Ning Ze, when will you ask such a stupid question?" ”

Ning Ze was stunned by the stupid two words, and he couldn't react a little, and suddenly understood what Qi Shu meant, and immediately smiled bitterly: "If I am single, it will be enough to repay the kindness of the royal family of Wei State, and that's it, there is nothing else to ask for." But now that I have you in my heart, and you don't like this treacherous thing in the court, I will want to take you to a place to live and live in the future. ”

He said it earnestly, and Qi Shu trembled when he heard it.

"Nonsense!"

"If you don't experience it yourself, how do you know I'm talking nonsense?"

"You shouldn't talk to me about the affairs of the DPRK and China, national affairs."

"Ah Shu, I find you really contradictory, obviously you like to listen with your ears up every time, but you are extremely disgusted by the things I talk about, but?" Something is wrong? Ning Ze didn't say these three words.

"It's just a boring pastime, what does it have to do with me?"

"What if it has anything to do with you?"

"Huh?" Qi Shu glanced at Ning Ze suspiciously, what does this have to do with her?

"Ashu, you don't know, in fact, ......"

"Lord Wang, the little prince of the Liuguo Mansion asks to see? He said that he had just come down to our house on duty, and he was looking for you in an urgent matter?! You see? The maid hurriedly walked over with the corner of her skirt and reported to Ning Ze and Qi Shu that they owed a debt.

There was a reason for the incident, Ning Ze didn't feel annoyed when he was interrupted, he hadn't dealt with this Liu Ruofeng for a while, he didn't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, why did he come to the door today?

"Then invite him here." Ning Ze thought for a while and said.

"Yes." After the maid got the order, she hurriedly turned around and went back to report, looking at the hot face of the little prince of the Liu family, sweating straight down, and still wearing the clothes of defending the city, seeing that Liu Guogong was really willing to be his own son, how could he be put under the sun to bask in the sun? I don't know how distressed people are.

After the maid left, Ning Ze looked at Qi Shu, pursed his lips and asked with concern, "Liu Ruofeng, do you want to avoid it?" ”

"No need, we haven't seen each other for a long time, it's good to meet, just ask Liu Guogong about the current situation."
