"What do you mean by that?"

Lu Chuan put down the book in his hand and looked at Wang Xiangyu with interest.

I saw Wang Xiangyuping retreat and whispered to Lu Chuan about her plan.

These days, Wang Dachun has been staying in the earthen cannon tube to sell soil bubbles, and happened to meet a generous figure. I thought he was the master of a big family, but who knew that he was a slave.

So he talked to him, and after some conversation, he learned that the minion's identity was not ordinary, and his master was the outer chamber of the prime minister.

During the chat, Zhang Dachun unintentionally mentioned this matter to Wang Xiangyu.

Wang Xiangyu's brain and its way of life, Lu Chuan works under the hands of the prime minister, but his qualifications are mediocre and he does not show it, but he just does some errands every day.

Wang Xiangyu felt that if he wanted to get ahead, he still had to rely on some different means, such as doing something for the prime minister that others could not know, and Lu Chuan would definitely have a great future at that time, so he had a plan.

Wang Xiangyu has already inquired, there are two elder brothers in the outer room, and they also work under the prime minister, but their ability is limited, and they only arrange a relatively low-status official position.

According to Wang Xiangyu's meaning, let Lu Chuan pretend to be familiar with his brother in foreign affairs, and then go up this road.

"It's not good to do this, in case the prime minister is disgusted......

Lu Chuan felt that although Wang Xiangyu's plan was very good, it was too risky, and if he could do what he liked, he might be able to rise to prominence, and the Prime Minister would pay attention to it. But if it arouses the disgust of the prime minister, I am afraid that it will be difficult to save my life.

"If the Prime Minister doesn't pay attention to the outer chamber, how can even her servants wear gold and silver? There is no doubt about the weight of the outer room in the hearts of the prime minister, and you can do it boldly. ”

"Let me think about it."

Lu Chuan was still a little uneasy in the end, but he didn't refuse.

Although he was holding a book in his hand, his mind was thinking about the incident mentioned by Wang Xiangyu.

"Madam, there are some things you have to think about!"

The prime minister's wife's grandmother poured a cup of tea for the prime minister's wife as she spoke.

"Mama, I'm old, what else can't I see? I've thought about these things for a long time. ”

The Prime Minister's wife sighed softly, then picked up the teacup, took a sip lightly, and continued.

"I'm worried about the boy in the outer room......"

Hearing the words of the prime minister's wife, the grandmother also sighed heavily.

Even though the prime minister's wife is the eldest lady of the Disaster Prince's Mansion and has a high and powerful position, she did not give birth to a boy in the end.

"Madame, don't be afraid, even if it's a boy born in the outer room, what's the matter? The name is not right. Besides, will you be able to live safely if you are born? ”

Hearing this, the hand of the prime minister's wife paused slightly, and then returned to normal.

"Mama, the poetry meeting will be over in a while, please take a trip, there are some things that need to be done."

After the prime minister's wife finished speaking, she put down the teacup and gently recited the words of Amitabha.

At the same time, the poetry club was not lively.

"I was fortunate enough to be Miss Li, the shopkeeper of Xifeng Pavilion, and I participated in a poetry meeting together."

Qian Qingqing said, and walked over with the lottery in his hand.

"Miss Li writes poems with flowing water, which is not elegant. Why don't Miss Li draw a lot and compose a poem today, so that everyone can open their eyes. ”

Qian Qingqing left no room for words, obviously trying to force Li Youran to make a fool of himself in front of everyone.

Li Youran is not a vegetarian, if he twists and refuses, he admits that his skills are not as good as others. But after admitting it generously, it seems that there is no way to refute Qian Qingqing.

"It's boring to write poetry alone. It's better for Miss Qian to compose a poem with me, and let the Miss Gongzi here comment on it, and the person who loses will show his talent, so that it will be lively. ”

Li Youran smiled, measured his steps elegantly, walked towards Qian Qingqing, and stopped only when he was only one step away from Qian Qingqing.

Li Youran is not only tall, but also convex and backward, which is very material, which can be described as graceful.

In front of everyone's eyes, Qian Qingqing and Li Youran stood together, in stark contrast.

If you look at it alone, Qian Qingqing can be regarded as a fair lady, but compared with Li Youran, she looks short and flat.

In particular, Qian Qingqing's slightly yellowish complexion is in stark contrast to Li Youran's white and translucent complexion, as if he is like an ugly duckling.

It was also this move that made many sons stay on Li Youran and nodded secretly.

"Miss Qian is a well-known talented woman in this circle, since Miss Qian says that Miss Li is quite talented, it must be some real material. Why don't Miss Qian have a try with Miss Li, let us also open our eyes. ”

Hu Shixiong stepped forward and said.

Hu Shixiong's father is the younger brother of the prime minister's mother, and the relationship between the two is very good, so among these concubines, Hu Shixiong's status is one of the best.

Not only that, Hu Shixiong himself is also very capable.

Although he relied on the prime minister's connections to enter the Hanlin Academy, everyone was convinced by his talent.

"What my eldest brother said is very true, Miss Qian, you should go down!"

Hu Shihua is dressed in white, so he is not suave, especially when he speaks, his eyebrows and eyes are smiling, which makes people feel a spring breeze.

"Since the two sons have said so, then I will be ugly."

Qian Qingqing couldn't refuse Hu Shihua's temptation, and the ghost made God answer it.

Jiang Qianqian was very familiar with Hu Shihua's voice, so she followed the voice and looked over, only to see her eyes facing Hu Shihua.

Hu Shihua looked at Jiang Qianqian affectionately, and couldn't help but slightly hook the corners of his mouth.

Jiang Qianqian nodded slightly, turned her gaze away, and thought that the person she met in the backyard of the temple that day was Hu Shihua.

If it weren't for Li Youran's kind reminder to Jiang Qianqian, she would not have found that Hu Shihua was unreliable.

After listening to her leisurely words that day, she sent someone to secretly check that there was really a maid who was bought by outsiders.

Jiang Qianqian is not stupid, she usually has a lot of eyes when chatting with a young lady, and when she chats, she moves closer to this aspect intentionally or unintentionally, and finds that several young ladies have red cheeks after hearing Hu Shihua's name.

Jiang Qianqian had a bold guess, that is, Hu Shihua directly cast a net in the lake to catch fish, and she was just one of the big fish.

Originally, it was just a guess, but when she saw Hu Shihua flattering Qian Qingqing today, she was sure that her guess was not wrong.

Just when Jiang Qianqian was in a daze, Li Youran had already reached out and pulled out a skewer from the bamboo tube.

"Miss Qian, it's your turn."

Qian Qingqing heard Li Youran's words. Nodding slightly, he pretended to elegantly slowly pull out a bamboo skewer from the bamboo skewer.

"Mine is describing lotus flowers, I don't know what title is written on Miss Li's signature paper?"

Qian Qingqing looked very relaxed in her words, which shows that this topic is what she is good at.

"This one of mine is more appropriate, writing about the relationship between men and women."

Li said leisurely, and shook the stick in his hand.

Hearing Li Youran's words, Qian Qingqing's eyes flashed with a hint of pride, they are all girls who have not left the cabinet, if Li Youran writes well, it exposes that she has a favorite man, if she writes badly, her skills are not as good as her.

No matter what, Li Youran is not pleasing at both ends.

"I wonder if Miss Li has a clue in her heart?"

"I haven't had a clue yet, so it's better for Miss Qian to invite first."

Qian Qingqing was not polite, took two steps, made a sad and sad look, and said a poem that rhymes for the sake of rhyming.

Although there is nothing wrong with it, there is no beauty in the verses.

Usually, it's okay to show off in the group of daughters, but today there are many sons present, so it's a little inferior.

"Miss Qian's poem is decent, let's not comment on it first, and wait for Miss Li's poem to comment together."

After Hu Shixiong finished speaking, he looked at Li Youran with expectant eyes.

Hu Shihua quietly took Hu Shixiong's move in his eyes, and then threw a look at Li Youran that he thought was quite charming.

But Li Youran didn't pay attention to it at all, which made Hu Shihua quite frustrated.

"Miss Li, if only it was inconvenient to draw lots once."

Wu Yong also felt a little embarrassed about this topic, in the end, it was not appropriate to write such a poem for a girl who had not been out of the cabinet, so he took the initiative to speak.

"Cousin Wu is really pitiful, I don't know if Miss Li can accept her cousin's kindness?"

Hu Shihua's joke made Wu Yong blush, don't look at Wu Yong's outspoken words on weekdays, but he is very shy, and so many people have never been joked like this.

"Thank you Wu Gongzi for your kindness, there is no need to change."

Li said leisurely, and glanced at Hu Shihua with disgust.

From the first sentence Hu Shihua opened his mouth to say, Li Youran changed his heart and disliked it.

Seeing that Li Youran finally set his eyes on Chen Qingqing's body, Xiao Youyou raised his eyebrows and said.

"When the lotus leaves are born, spring hates life, and when the lotus leaves wither, autumn hates them. I know that I am in love for a long time, and I look forward to the sound of the river. ”

I saw that Li Youran had just finished reciting this poem, and the young ladies and sons began to discuss.

It can be seen that Li Youran is going to Qian Qingqing, only to see that Qian Qingqing's cheeks are red with shame, but he has nothing to say.

Hu Qinqin, who had been sitting in the home position without speaking, quietly turned the wine glass in her hand, she didn't expect Li Youran to be so talented.

And Wu Yong seemed to be very supportive, which made Hu Qinqin's heart even more painful.

Obviously, she and Wu Yong's cousin were born a natural pair, but her mother and father only hoped that she could marry His Royal Highness the Third Prince and become the queen, so she could only say that this relationship was buried deep in her heart.

Over the years, Wu Yong has never been married, and he has also replied to many women who are interested in him in public, which makes Hu Qinqin feel a lot more comfortable, thinking that Wu Yong's cousin rejected those women because his cousin was interested in her.

But today, after seeing Hu Yong cheering Li Youran so much, Hu Qinqin's heart was like a fish bone.

Caidie on the side stood with Jiang Qianqian, praising Li Youran together.

Originally, Jiang Qianqian was worried that Li Youran would not be able to make poems and make a fool of herself on the spot, but she didn't expect Li Youran to be so good.

Zhou Caidie on the side was deeply impressed by Li Youran's literary brilliance, not only made a good poem, but also used lotus to compose a poem, slapping Qian Qingqing's face.

"Miss Li is very literate."

Hu Shixiong's words were very weighty, and after he admitted Li Youran's poems, other sons praised Li Youran one after another.

The slap in the face was indeed painful, but Li Youran only reacted at this time, and she had caused a big disaster.

The purpose of this poetry meeting is to show these young ladies and young ladies each other, but she is so showy here, if it really brings unnecessary trouble, it will be bad.

So Li Youran retreated in time and disappeared into the crowd, as if everything that happened before had nothing to do with her.

"Tian Gongzi, our young lady has something to do and hasn't come back yet."

Xiaohong said that she was going to beckon Tian Alang into the mansion to wait for Li Youran's return, but Tian Alang refused.

"I don't have anything important to do, I'm just asking you to transfer this to your young lady."

Tian Alang took out a delicate box with a lock on it, and at the same time, handed the key to Xiaohong.

"I was busy during this time, so I stopped visiting her and told her not to worry about me."

"Tian Gongzi walks slowly."

After Tian Alang finished speaking, he turned around and left, and his thin figure gradually disappeared at the end of the alley.

In recent days, every time Li Youran went to Shangshu Mansion, he would bring some food or use for Tian Alang by the way.

Tian Alang can be regarded as completely understanding Li Youran's thoughts about him, and he really loves him as a younger brother, but Tian Alang can't treat Li Youran as a sister.

However, in order to maintain such a relationship with Li Youran, Tian Alang can only hide his thoughts, otherwise, I am afraid that even Li Youran's trace of love will not be obtained.

Tian Alang just walked on the front foot, and Li Youran came back on the back foot.

"This kid ......"

Li Youran opened the box and saw five silver tickets of fifty taels inside.

Tian Alang had said before that it was useless to put these silver places with him, so he insisted on putting these silver here with Li Youran, but Li Youran did not agree to it.

She didn't expect Tian Alang to come to the door, drop the silver and leave.

Li Youran couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly, Tian Alang was really stubborn.

"There's really nothing you can do with him."

Li Youran met someone who was even more stubborn than her, naturally there was no way, in the end, it was Tian Alang's intentions, if he refused too ruthlessly, he was afraid that this child would be angry.

He simply put away the money, thinking that it would be returned to him later.

"Miss, I have checked the things you sent me to investigate."

The army has also returned, and it has done everything arranged by Li Youran clearly.

According to Li Youran's description, the army went to find several underground places, and really found Li Erzhu there.

There is also a man beside Li Erzhu named Zhang Dachun.

The army pretended to be buying a bubble and talked to the two of them, and came up with a lot of useful information.
