Ye Qianhuai regretted it a little.

Because from that day on, Ye Tianhuai's daily homework has been half an hour more than half an hour about the teaching of the five constants.

In the matter of luring Ye Tianhuai back to the right path, Lu Yanchen can be described as conscientious and painstaking.

Ye Tianhuai was even keenly aware that Lu Yanchen had deliberately raised the neckline of his middle coat by a few inches, and it was more tightly enclosed.

Ye Tianhuai couldn't help but sigh secretly, there was no need for his heart.

Although she admired Lu Yanchen in her previous life, this admiration was more about appreciation and admiration than covetousness. For this unsmiling Yan Shi, she has not yet been bold enough to give birth to a reckless thought.

Ye Tianhuai listened to him talk about the great truth of husband and wife, secretly raised his eyes to look at him, and saw him sitting with a serious appearance, and couldn't help but smile in his heart: I am afraid that there is only Lu Yanchen in the world who can talk about the affairs of husband and wife so clearly.

But today's Lu Yanchen seemed to have something on his mind, and he paused several times during the lecture, as if he was distracted.

That's rare. So at the end of the lecture, Ye Qian asked with concern: "Mr. is restless today, but is he homesick?" ”

Lu Yanchen was slightly stunned, the corners of his lips hooked up a wry smile that seemed to be nothing, shook his head, and replied: "Weichen's hometown is bitterly cold, not as prosperous as Beijing. ”

"I remember, Mr. is from Yunju."

"Yunzhou Hengtai."

"'The bright moon rises out of the white mountains, and the vast sea of clouds.'" The book says that Yunzhou has the towering white mountains, the vast snow, the strongest wine in Kyushu, the most powerful horses, and the hardest bones in Kyushu. Speaking of the last sentence, Ye Tianhuai deliberately slowed down his speech and glanced at Lu Yanchen intentionally or unintentionally.

Lu Yanchen didn't seem to notice the emperor's meaningful glance, and replied calmly: "Yunzhou is cold and frozen, and there are many wars, so the people are more fierce. ”

"Since Yunzhou is bitterly cold, why doesn't Mr. take Ling Zun to Beijing to recuperate?"

Lu Yanchen raised his eyes to look at Ye Tianhuai, with some surprise in his eyes.

He has been single in the past few years as an official in Shengjing, and his residence is only a remote courtyard, with only two subordinates in the courtyard, and there are no cars and horses to travel, and it takes more than half an hour to go to and from the palace every day.

It wasn't so cold at first.

Lu Yanchen was only twenty-one years old at the time, and he was the youngest Jinshi in the history of Dajing, and he had a bright future. At that time, it was during the Renshen Rebellion, and the officials of various ministries changed frequently, and there were many vacancies in important positions in the DPRK and China. With Lu Yanchen's scientific examination ranking, if someone recommends him, it is possible to serve as a lang or even a waiter in a large ministry such as the household department and the official department.

Because of this, he, a hairy boy from Yunzhou with no background, was hot in Shengjing's famous family for a while, and the recruited doormen and matchmakers who said goodbye almost broke the door of his small courtyard.

To everyone's surprise, Lu Yanchen rejected these olive branches thrown at him one by one.

"Young people are arrogant and arrogant. In this way, it must be to wait for the price to sell. The doormen and matchmakers who hit the wall replied to their masters.

As a result, Chen Yuansi, who was the secretary of the household department and concurrently a cabinet scholar, personally went to the door to say goodbye to his granddaughter, and wanted to recruit Lu Yanchen as the Chen family's son-in-law.

However, Lu Yanchen politely refused this family business on the grounds of serving filial piety for his mother.

This incident caused a sensation in Shengjing, and there were all kinds of speculations among the people, and even rumors that the granddaughter of the Chen family was ugly came out, so that to this day, the granddaughter of the first assistant has not yet married.

After all, everyone really couldn't think of the reason why Lu Yanchen refused such a marriage.

After this incident, there was no bustle in front of Lu Yanchen's door. After a long time, everyone also found out that this new science and technology sergeant was a cold man who did not like to interact with people, so he arranged an inconsequential position in the military department, and forgot him in the corner of Shengjing officialdom.

Until the Renshen Rebellion subsided, Emperor Shunping, who picked up a life from the swords of his sons, hated the party struggle and decided to re-elect a gentleman who had no party and no faction to concentrate on learning for the Wenxuan Palace to be Ye Qianhuai's western seat, Lu Yanchen was turned out of the corner by the courtiers and sent to Emperor Shunping.

Emperor Shunping was very satisfied with Lu Yanchen, and transferred him from the military department to Taiqing Pavilion, and he was promoted two levels in a row, and the Wenxuan Hall was all handed over to him alone, and he never chose other gentlemen for Ye Tianhuai.

After entering the Wenxuan Palace, Lu Yanchen did not change his previous appearance of being diligent and thrifty, and even Ye Tianhuai proposed several times to change the courtyard for him, but he was rejected on the grounds of non-compliance.

In the past few days, Ye Qianhuai has thought carefully that she can't kill Lu Yanchen at the moment, so she can only stabilize him and stay in Shengjing. Since he returned to his hometown on leave because of Ding Wei in his previous life, he has to find a way to make him Ding worry about this in this life.

Lu Yanchen naturally didn't think so far-reaching, but the emperor wanted to use an excuse to change the courtyard for him, so he saluted and said: "Your Majesty is very loving, and the minister is deeply heartfelt." It's just that my father still has an ancestral business in his hometown, and he is not yet old enough to take care of himself. ”

His answer made Ye Tianhuai wonder in his heart: According to the time of his previous life, Lu Yanchen will be worried in two months, but listening to him, his father is still busy with the shop at home. Could it be sudden death?

"I remember that Ling Zun is in the calligraphy and painting business." Ye Qian said.

At the mention of his father, Lu Yanchen's expression warmed a little and said, "Not really." Selling some paper and ink is the mainstay, Yunzhou is still martial, and the sales of calligraphy and painting are not good. ”

He was modest, in fact, the Lu family's shops were opened all over the two states of the Northland, and the business was quite large, and Ye Tianhuai had also heard of it.

"Ling Zun...... I remember how old I am, right? How are you doing? Ye Qianhuai tried his best to make his tone seem natural, as if he was gossiping.

Lu Yanchen's expression was slightly gloomy, and he said, "Back to Your Majesty, my father still has two years to reach the age of the sixtieth year." Weichen was frightened and didn't dare to let His Majesty worry about it, his father was still in good health and could be called healthy. ”

Ye Tianhuai looked relieved, nodded and smiled, but couldn't help frowning in his heart.

Can it be called robust? How did you die in a month or two? only hated himself in his previous life and didn't pay close attention to how Lu Yanchen's father died, so he defaulted in his heart that he died of illness at an old age.

"Mr. is alone in Beijing, Ling Zun must have a lot of thoughts." Although Ye Tianhuai wondered in his heart, he still wanted to continue the topic.

Lu Yanchen nodded and said, "Naturally, I am thinking about it." ”

At this point, Ye Tianhuai suddenly thought of a question she had always wanted to ask in her previous life but didn't dare to ask.

In his previous life, until she killed herself in front of the palace, Lu Yanchen was still alone and had never been married, and he had never heard rumors of any women around him. Ye Tianhuai speculated in private, saying in his heart that he had someone in his heart, and even occasionally thought about whether the person in his heart could be himself.

It wasn't until the three-foot Qingfeng cut off her throat that she was forced down by fate to recognize the reality.

Between her and Lu Yanchen, they can be monarchs and ministers, teachers and students, or even enemies, but they can never be a couple.

Even if she was a woman, it didn't help.

The gap between them is far more than just gender, but also a shackle of identity, the right to eat people.

"My husband is also twenty-four years old, why don't you marry a wife and start a family? is that there is a side room and someone to take care of it, so Ling Zun must not be so worried. ”

If it had been in the past, she would never have dared to ask her husband about his family.

Sure enough, after dying once, I saw a lot of everything, and I became a lot bolder. Ye Qianhuai said secretly in his heart.

Lu Yanchen looked at her for a long time, and after a pair of calm eyes seemed to flow through many unknown thoughts, he did not answer directly, but asked rhetorically: "If Weichen marries a wife and starts a family, will Your Majesty also marry a concubine?" ”

He asked seriously, as if as long as Ye Tianhuai nodded, Lu Yanchen would be able to find a random woman to marry.

Thinking of Lu Yanchen's marriage, Ye Tianhuai's heart trembled slightly.

"Sir, aren't you afraid of breaking my heart when you say that?" She hung her head, her voice a little lonely.

Lu Yanchen was about to say something, but was stopped by her pitiful appearance, and after a long time, he sighed lightly and asked, "When is Your Majesty, ...... to the ministers?"

His voice sank, and he couldn't say the ambiguous words after all.

It was rare to see him speechless, Ye Tianhuai couldn't help but smile and said, "When I first met Mr., I was here. Do you remember what you said to me when you first taught me? I asked Mr. what he was here for, and he said that he was here to assist Mingjun. Whether it is the court or the harem, no one believes that I can be a good emperor, not even me. Only the gentleman believes in me. ”

The past is vivid, in the past in this Wenxuan Palace, when Lu Yanchen made a statement to Ye, his eyes were as bright as starlight, far from the appearance of his heart like water.

Ye Tianhuai sighed and said, "It's a pity that Mr. is wrong. ”

"Why did Your Majesty say that?"

"I am an emperor with no ambitions. I've been thinking a lot lately, if it weren't for the Renshen Rebellion, whether it was the eldest brother or the second brother becoming the emperor, the world would be much better. ”

In her previous life, when there was a rebellion in various places, she had such thoughts.

Clinker, Lu Yanchen said: "If it is not Your Majesty on the throne now, Weichen will not want to enter this Wenxuan Palace." ”

Ye Tianhuai was a little surprised and asked, "Why?" ”

"Because Weichen is here to assist Mingjun." Lu Yanchen said it again.

Ye Tianhuai was stunned, what he meant was that her eldest brother and second brother were not the choice of Mingjun.

If this was said by someone else, Ye Tianhuai would have laughed it off as a sycophant, but Lu Yanchen has always been cold and dislikes to praise it, so he said so, that's what he thought.

Ye Qianhuai raised his eyes to look at him, but saw that he was also looking at her with burning eyes, this look couldn't help but remind Ye Qianhuai of what he looked like when he first saw him and made a generous statement.

The same unwavering, the same shining.

The gaze was a little hot, and the hot Ye Tianhuai's eyes dodged for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "Mr. is really unique." ”

Lu Yanchen's expression sank, as if he had thought of something, he hesitated a little, he pondered for a moment, and finally asked, "Why does Your Majesty want to review the Wenxiao Sacrifice Wine?" ”

Lu Yanchen rarely took the initiative to mention the affairs of the court to Ye Tianhuai in the Wenxuan Palace, which made Ye Tianhuai have an intuition for no reason, feeling that he was restless today, precisely because of this matter.

"Sir, do you know the Wenxiao Festival Wine?"

"The literary school sacrificial wine is the university of the world, and he is the author of masterpieces such as "Crane Said" and "Salt and Iron Treatise".

Although he did not admit that he knew the sacrificial wine, he could not hide the meaning of appreciation in his words.

"Sir, have you read his "Treatise on Martial Candidates"?"

"The minister has heard one or two."

"I checked the case file of the Criminal Department yesterday, and Wang Lisong lamented the death of Wuhou in the Wuhou Theory, saying that the death of the previous dynasty was due to the importance of literature and light on martial arts, and the emperor appointed traitors, listened to slander, and mistakenly killed Wuhou."

Hearing this, Lu Yanchen interrupted Ye Qianhuai and said, "Your Majesty reads this article as a king, and everything you see is the fault of the king. However, the minister thought that the text of sacrificing wine was not intended for the king, but for the minister. It was said in the article that the way of being an official is nothing more than serving the king and the people. In the last years of the Cheng Dynasty, the king was drunk and dreamed of death, and the people were not happy, but there were more than 1.27 million officials in the Manchu Dynasty, and no one dared to speak directly to the emperor. ”

Ye Tianhuai listened to Lu Yanchen's words, and after a long pause, he slowly asked: "The Criminal Department said that his "Treatise on Martial Arts" is suspected of using the past to satirize the present, does Mr. think so?" ”

"In the last years of the Cheng Dynasty, the imperial court could not make ends meet, the people suffered and harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and the names of some states and counties added up to two out of ten or even three. If you want to say that the sacrificial wine is a satire of the past and the present, the irony is about the same as the current atmosphere of the dynasty. ”

The meaning of protection in his words was not concealed, so Ye Qianhuai asked him again: "I ask Mr. again, Mr. and sacrificial wine are old acquaintances?" ”

This time, Lu Yanchen no longer avoided it, but replied bluntly: "The sacrificial wine is taught at the opening of the literary school every month, and when Weichen is not out of office, he listens to it every time and benefits a lot. ”

"What does the gentleman think is the person who sacrifices wine?"

Lu Yanchen paused and replied: "He is upright, has the ambition of a green pine, and the style of a gentleman." ”

It was the first time for Ye Qianhuai to hear him praise someone so unsparingly, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was expected. She nodded and said, "I know." Go ahead, sir. ”

There are three days left before the trial, and I want to meet this Wang Lisong.

Ye said in his heart.
