Chapter 9 You Raise Me for the Second Half of Your Life
Li Chenghuan didn't know why, but Xie Jinghong stopped talking, walked through the corridor with a calm face, and came to the main hall.
At this time, Li Chenghuan knew what a difficult task he had undertaken.
Commander Shi received a secret order - to smear the image of Xinyangjun! Let him be discredited and never recovered!
Li Chenghuan was dumbfounded: "What kind of task is this?!" β
As we all know, Xinyang Jun has both ability and political integrity, which can be called a model of a gentleman in the world!
The chief in the hall sat the conductor Shi Li Qianzhong, and he said: "I will take care of it in the palace, and you have to act when the opportunity comes." β
The embroidery division obeyed the emperor's orders, and they couldn't refuse this confusing secret order, let alone know what the motive of this secret order was.
Xie Jinghong said: "Now that you have received this secret order, what are you worried about?" β
Li Qianzhong said lightly: "I know you have an opinion, but no matter what, you must protect Ah Huan's safety." β
Xie Jinghong finally couldn't help it, and sneered: "Indicate that Ah Huan should approach Gu Lanting." She's a woman, whose reputation is she ruining! I don't know why you're so afraid of them? Isn't it just an old adulthood? It's a big deal to break the public ......"
Before he finished speaking, Li Qianzhong slapped his palm on the table: "Xie Jinghong!" β
Xie Jinghong stopped suddenly.
Li Chenghuan said: "Master, brother, don't quarrel. I'll do it! β
Li Chenghuan and Xie Jinghong are both orphans who were adopted by Li Qianzhong. Li Chenghuan was just born, and Xie Jinghong was seven years old.
Probably because he experienced some bad encounter, he has a cold personality since he was a child, and he has never seen him laugh.
"Li Chenghuan." Xie Jinghong's voice was low, his breath trembled a little, and he said, "You are a woman!" Don't think that if you work as an errand in the embroidery department, you will think of yourself as a man! You are not a little general flag that people call and drink, nor are you a pawn who is for the silver knife mountain and the sea of fire, you are a serious girl! You're no different from those ladies! You're going to ...... someday."
Li Qianzhong propped up the table and stood up: "Shocking." β
Xie Jinghong closed his mouth, turned his head, and said nothing.
Li Chenghuan's eyes widened in bewilderment. The senior brother hated her very much for being an errand in the embroidery department, and he also hated her very much for being in the market, as if this was some kind of shame. However, Li Chenghuan doesn't think so, why do women have to follow three virtues and four virtues? Relying on one's own ability to be an errand and take a fortune, freedom is better than anything else, isn't it?
She called softly, "Senior brother! β
Xie Jinghong got up: "I can't change anything." There you go. He took a deep breath, "Remember, don't stain your face next time you eat!" β
Dropping these words, he walked straight out. Li Chenghuan sat in his position blankly, a little helpless against his anger.
It's not so much that he cares about her, it's better to say that Xie Jinghong is such a strict person. He can't tolerate any behavior that she doesn't have enough "everyone's beauty", and he has to take the trouble to correct her every time.
Li Chenghuan often disagreed with him when he was a child, but he didn't end well every time - Xie Jinghong, as a big disciple, has the right to punish his senior brothers and sisters.
And this person's personality is almost ruthless, and when he says it, his coquettish crying is completely ineffective in him, and he punishes Li Chenghuan until he admits his mistake every time. Over time, Li Chenghuan's awe of him has far surpassed that of his master Li Qianzhong.
Early the next morning, Li Chenghuan went out and went straight to East Street.
Li Chengle followed by his side, yawning and complaining: "Grandma, can we go to the noodle restaurant for breakfast first?" β
"I can't." Li Chenghuan took out an oiled paper bag from his sleeve and threw it to them, and said, "Let's make do with it, I'll get this done, master, I invite you to go to Dexi Building to eat to your heart's content...... Within 20 copper plates, you can order whatever you want! β
Li Chengle took a sip angrily, opened the oil paper, and it was two baked cakes, one in each hand, and walked towards the bookstore while gnawing.
"It's coming, it's coming!" The owner of the bookstore opened the door of the store while wearing a belt, and when he saw the two people at the door, he was stunned: "Two masters...... What kind of incense blows you? Sit down, sit insideβthe baby, serve tea to the master! β
Because of the particularity of the profession, the merchants along the street are a little apprehensive when they see the embroidery department, after all, no one wants to be found out about their involvement with the officials.
Li Chenghuan waved his hand and said straight to the point: "Boss, wrap all the books related to Keju here!" I want them all! β
The boss was overjoyed: "Okay! You said that it was a coincidence, a batch of new books just arrived yesterday, and there are 366 books related to Keju alone, please wait a minute, let the guy help you send it to the embroidery division! β
"Wait!" Li Chenghuan touched the jingling money bag, "Three hundred and sixty-six copies??" Forget it, you tell me which one is the best to buy. β
"That's naturally "Keju Twelve Articles", I think this book was popular throughout Chang'an back then!" The boss cleaned up the table and sucked and ate a bowl of fragrant noodles.
Li Chenghuan couldn't help but cast his gaze over. The noodles were long and tough, the tender beef was evenly spread in the bowl, and her stomach was ringing again.
Li Chengle poked her waist: "Let's go to the noodle restaurant for a meal in a while?" You didn't come yesterday, my brothers went to eat the new chicken noodle soup......" he closed his eyes and took a deep breath, "The fresh chicken is sealed in a crockpot, simmered for three hours, the meat is fragrant, and then add red dates and lotus seeds, that taste, tsk, endless aftertaste!" β
"You're enough! I didn't have breakfast! Li Chenghuan swallowed his saliva, the two cakes he brought in the morning were eaten by Chengfu Chengle, and the rest of the money should be used to buy books, after all, this money cannot be reimbursed!
"I said that you have a lot of money every month, why are you always so picky? What about dowry?! β
Li Chenghuan said casually: "Yes, they all say that I can't get married, I have to take precautions and save more pension money for myself!" β
Li Chengle nodded matter-of-factly: "Hmm! This is a good realization, but don't starve yourself to death until you have saved up enough money......"
Li Chenghuan smiled and turned to look through the books on the shelves.
After a pause, Li Chengle said: "Ah Huan, you don't have to be so ......"
ββ¦β¦β
Li Chenghuan pretended not to hear his concern, held up a book and said, "Chengle, you see this book is very good!" β
Li Chengle said: "Some things don't have to be too persistent, parents and children ......"
Li Chenghuan slowly raised his head and interrupted him helplessly: "Li Chengle...... You are a big man, is it really good to be so sad early in the morning? β
"You are desperately saving money, don't you just want to go behind Master's back to find your biological parents?"
What's wrong with a child who hasn't seen his parents since he was a child and wants to know who his biological parents are? Li Chenghuan couldn't understand why the master had not allowed her to cross this line.
However, the more things you are not allowed to touch, the more you will have to think about them.
Li Chenghuan smiled and approached Li Chengle: "Otherwise, my father and mother won't look for it first, and you will support me for the rest of my life?!" β
"Raise you?" Li Chengle's eyes widened and he took a step back, "How much money do I have to afford your ability to go to the house and uncover tiles?!" β
Li Chenghuan nodded thoughtfully: "Indeed." Just the set of glow-in-the-dark cups smashed in Wanhualou can bankrupt you. β
She shrugged helplessly, waved at the boss and said, "Help me ...... this"
The remaining half of the sentence was stuck in the throat.
At some point, there was a man standing in the doorway.
Princess Jianing!
