Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Secret Weapon

"Ahh

Standing in a small pavilion on the south side of the Imperial Garden, a tall and thin man dressed in the official uniform of the Zhou Dynasty Tsing Yi turned around, looking at Meng Meng who was still trying to pace on the ground with a big belly, and a playful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Why did it come too? This little thing is so funny! ”

He Xuan looked at Meng Meng and said with a smile: "I won the first place in the last exam, and under my soft grinding and hard bubbles, Li Fuzi finally agreed to Meng Meng to go to Ling Shudian." Childe parted to see it walk stupidly cute, in fact, it is very smart, just quiet in class, never called. ”

Regarding Mengmeng's IQ, Zhao Lin was noncommittal. He smiled and said: "Don't look at your usual class, you are the first in every exam, of course Master Li looks at you differently." ”

"I didn't have a few exams in total, so I was lucky." He Xuan wiped his face with a silk handkerchief with a weak heart, for fear that the smart Zhao Lin would see her abnormality.

In fact, she deliberately made a few mistakes in every exam, just for fear of arousing everyone's suspicion. It's only to blame that she has lived one more life than those people and read more than ten years of sage books.

"Is it really just luck? Zhao Lin knew why the princess could win the first place every time. Zhao Lin stared straight at He Xuan, and the corners of his mouth hooked an arc.

He Xuan chuckled in his heart, and said, "For... Why? ”

"Because I deliberately lost to Xuan Xuan! The thesis is martial arts, if Zhao Linruo said that it was the second, who would dare to call it the first, not to mention those straw bales on the Ling Shu Palace. ”

Only then did He Xuan react, it turned out that Zhao Lin was narcissistic again, so he mocked: "Why has this princess never heard such a statement?" Among the princes, who are famous for their knowledge, is my second imperial brother Ji Qi. Among the sons of the family of Hojing, the young hero in the eyes of everyone is my cousin Cai Wenxuan. ”

"Everyone knows a fart, my son is literary and romantic, unparalleled in the world, but he doesn't want to show it in front of everyone. Grandfather said ... Zhao Lin retorted unconvinced, and when he mentioned his grandfather Zhao An, he felt speechless and stopped.

As soon as he heard Zhao An, what appeared in Hexuan's mind was the face of a traitor who betrayed his father. She sarcastically said angrily: "In terms of romance, no one can compare to Gongzilin!" ”

Zhao Lin understood that He Xuan was angry, and thought about changing the topic, so he called the little guy behind him and said, "Xuan Xuan, the autumn day is a little cold, this cloak is for you." ”

And Xuan looked at it, it was a pure white cloak, with a faint pattern of silver thread embroidery on it, and a piece of white jade inlaid at the collar.

"That day, Xuan Xuan was dressed as a man in plain white clothes in Yuefu Building, which was really handsome, which made Zhao Lin unforgettable. So, find someone to do this, and hope that the princess will smile. ”

He Xuan squinted his eyes and said, "You like to see me pretend to be a man?" ”

Zhao Lin was amused by this sentence, laughed a few times, and explained: "That's not enough, I don't like men." When the women's clothes are soft and demure, and the men's clothes are chic and handsome, all are good, all are good. I just feel that white goes well with you. ”

He Xuan only smiled slightly, and when Qing'er saw this, she stepped forward to take the cloak from the little girl's hand and carefully held it in her hand.

"Isn't there a hunting competition before the Mid-Autumn Festival, the princess wears this, and she is in a team with me, and she comes out on top, so that other princes and princesses and the children of the family can take a good look, what is a talented man and a woman!" Zhao Lin said confidently.

"Coming out on top? I don't know how to draw a bow and shoot an arrow. He Xuan rolled his eyes widely, pouted and said.

"Hehe, I've thought of this a long time ago." Zhao Lin said, took out a palm-sized crossbow with exquisite workmanship from his arms, and took out a gold satin brocade bag full of arrows, and said mysteriously: "It takes a lot of strength to draw a bow, and it is not suitable for women." This repeater was given to you, and I deceived it from a peerless craftsman in Lu Guoyi. ”

It's not that she hasn't seen a repeater before, but it's the first time she's seen such a small one, and she half-believes: "This isn't a toy to coax children, right?" ”

"Of course not." Zhao Lin said, raised the crossbow, "swished" a few times, and on the several osmanthus trees next to him, the arrows had already sunk into the depths of the trunk, and the power was huge.

The speed of the arrow shot out extremely fast, and with the wind, the cute man on the ground was so frightened that he flew up all of a sudden, fluttering his wings in the air.

He Xuan was a little stunned, and hurriedly said: "I believe it, don't shoot, this is the Imperial Garden, what if you hurt a passerby!" ”

After that, He Xuan motioned to Qing'er to hurry up and take care of Mengmeng, lest something happen to this cute little thing.

Zhao Lin smiled contentedly, put away the crossbow, handed it to He Xuan, and said, "Xuan Xuan knows the goods now?" It's lightweight, just remember to practice how to aim. ”

At this moment, not far away, a group of figures hurriedly flashed, and several palace people carried a woman who looked like a concubine in a panic, and they walked on the ground, walking on a drop of blood.

"Princess, isn't that one... Xu Jieyu? Qing'er interjected in a trembling voice.

He Xuan muttered, "What's wrong with her?" She motioned for Qing'er behind her to ask.

Zhao Lin was slightly displeased with this scene of the bad scenery, glanced coldly at the distance, turned back to He Xuan and said, "Xuan Xuan won't have to worry about other people's affairs again, right?" ”

He Xuan glanced at Zhao Lin and did not respond.

After a while, Qing'er hurriedly ran back and said, "It's Xu Jieyu, she fell!" ”

"What? What happened? He Xuan asked with a panicked expression.

Qing'er's face turned pale and said, "The slave maid is not very clear, those palace people are in a hurry, and they only tell the slave maid that something happened in the imperial garden." ”

"How so? Isn't she already to Concubine Zhong Shu... He Xuan lowered his head and muttered to himself, "Let's go over and have a look!" ”

Zhao Lin's cold face, the corners of his mouth sank, and said: "Zhao Lin is a man, it's not suitable to go on such an occasion, right?" Besides, Xu Jieyu used to be an ordinary maid in my Zhao Mansion, so let's not care about her. ”

"When I say 'we', I'm referring to me and Qing'er." He Xuan explained impatiently, and was ready to leave.

"Princess, forgive Zhao Lin for talking too much, the battle in the harem will never end. Why should the princess be condescending and take care of such trivial matters? Zhao Lin stretched out his arm and blocked Hexuan's way.

"Childe Lin, don't say it if you know it's too much." He Xuan's voice was a little cold, his gaze shifted to Zhao Lin's face, and said, "Besides, how did Gongzilin know that this was a harem battle?" ”

"I..." Zhao Lin paused, withdrew his arm, turned his head away, and said coldly: "I don't know what's wrong!" ”

He Xuan didn't bother to argue with him, flicked his sleeves, and walked away.

After only two steps, Zhao Lin's voice once again came into her ears, "Princess, do you know that Concubine Zhong Shu has not harmed the fetus in Xu Jieyu's womb at all?" ”
