Inside the study.

The Lixian family and the little sister were standing or standing, their faces were a little thoughtful.

"Pay for the repair of the tower, pray for the father's blessing, reunite the broken jade, pay tribute to auspiciousness, and declare that he is seriously ill...... It makes sense, and it makes sense. ”

Li'er's fingers tapped her chin, her eyes lit up, and she looked at Ouyang Rong: "Good!" ”

Wei Mei frowned, thinking more, or rather, understanding the mother-in-law better:

"Will it be pierced by her or them?"

Ouyang Rong looked at Wei Mei with a strange expression:

"Of course this will be seen through, isn't it self-evident."

Wei Mei opened his mouth: "Huh? ”

Ouyang Rong smiled:

"Who said auspicious rui has to be true? Isn't the fake auspicious not the real auspicious? ”

He lowered his eyes and muttered, as if he had spoken:

"When truth is false, falsehood is true, and falsehood is true when it is true; It's true because it's false, it's true because it's false, it's true and false, it's true. ”

Li Fusu thoughtfully touched his head, and his tone was a little worried:

"Tan Lang, there will be a mistake in the future, although the preparation is very thorough, but in case, what if someone in the court stands up and dismantles the stage, once it is more serious, send someone to take a closer look, will it be bad?"

"Da Lang is right to be worried."

Ouyang Rong nodded, and in an instant, he raised his hand, and his slender palm pointed at the Zhou Court in Luoyang in the north:

"But who dares to be more serious, who dares to come and investigate? In front of His Majesty, who dares to say that the Buddha is auspicious and the Great Zhou is fake?

"Let me ask the ministers, do you have the guts?"

The Weak Crown Strategist raised his chin and sneered.

"Tan Lang is right, but it seems that there is still a prime minister who dares to speak out in front of His Majesty." Lifu Su said weakly: "For example, Difuzi." ”

Ouyang Rong looked strange: "Why is Di Fuzi dismantling your platform?" ”

Lifu Su and everyone were speechless.

Yes, they are all friendly troops, why are the Baoli factions of the imperial court demolishing their platform, they can't see through it.

It's not everyone who is Ouyang Lianghan, who prepared the coffin and dared to top the eldest princess and empress.

"Makes sense." Li'er bowed his head, and asked in a deep voice: "What about the people of King Wei and the Wei family, they can also say a lot in front of His Majesty. ”

Ouyang Rong smiled and nodded, a hundred in favor:

"That's okay, check it, it's just right, change it to Zhou Qian, those bullshit auspicious rui they offered, Di Fuzi, they can also check it, and see who has the problem first."

Libao'er, Wei Mei, and Lifusu turned their heads and looked sideways, and they all suddenly looked: "What a plan!" ”

Only Lixian was still scratching his head, and muttered weakly:

"Tan Lang, it's okay for the people below to say, it's mainly the queen mother's attitude towards me, in case she hates me and doesn't accept this auspiciousness."

Ouyang Rong shook his head and said:

"The last thing you need to worry about in this auspicious act is Your Majesty."

Speaking of this, after a pause, he sighed:

"In other words, it is precisely because of her attitude that we have to take the initiative to offer auspiciousness today, this is an opportunity, the opportunity she gave, if you don't grasp it, you will miss it."

Stunned for a moment, he asked a little panicked: "What opportunity is Tan Lang talking about?" ”

Ouyang Rong pointed to the jade fragment on the side of his boots:

"Hasn't Uncle seen that this piece of Jue is her attitude?"

"But since ancient times, isn't the main meaning of Jue 'absolute'?"

Ouyang Rong asked rhetorically: "Why isn't it a 'decision', a decisive decision." ”

Leave the idle and stop.

Ouyang Rong asked rhetorically:

"If it's really 'absolute', you won't kill yourself after taking 'Jue' on the street.

"Now that so much time has passed, the news has already been transmitted back by the palace envoys.

"It's so unseemly, according to Your Majesty's temperament, will you send someone to help you be decent?

"The truth is, she didn't."

Completely silent, he muttered to himself:

"Jue, is it decided...... I see. ”

Ouyang Rongfeng said lightly:

"Uncle, the most dangerous moment has passed, and this is the last chance.

"Does it matter if the auspicious is true or not? It doesn't matter, because in this Great Zhou Dynasty, His Majesty will always control the final interpretation power, and she will judge whether it is true or false.

"And this piece of Jue is actually a question given to you by His Majesty."

"What...... What's the question? ”

"A question to test you, a question to round in circles.

"Your Majesty wants to see if you have belittled Dragon City for so many years, whether you have learned to go around in circles, this is the basis for reactivating Ling in the future, and it is also a kind of ...... The Emperor's Fundamentals. ”

After being stunned for a while, he couldn't help but ask with reverence:

"Tan Lang, did you know this from the first time you saw Yu Jue?"

Ouyang Rong was noncommittal, walked to Xie Lingjiang's seat, picked up a piece of watermelon in the food box, and took a bite.

Leave your head down and chew repeatedly:

"Going around in circles...... Tan Lang, when you propose to offer auspicious rui and pretend to be sick, are you going around in circles? ”

"That's right." Ouyang Rong bowed his head, chewed melons in his mouth, and muttered casually:

"The more beautiful this circle is, the better."

The Lixian family, as well as Xie Lingjiang with a silver spoon in his hand, all turned their heads to look at Ouyang Rong, with different eyes.

Ouyang Rong didn't look at them, he lowered his eyes and ate the melon, wiped it dry, and put down the melon scoop.

There are pale red watermelon juice stains between the fingers.

Two handkerchiefs were handed over almost at the same time, right under his eyes.

On one side is a moon-white embroidered lotus handkerchief, and on the other side is a peach-colored embroidered phoenix handkerchief.

The former is in the hands of the girl in red clothes, and the latter is in the hands of the little girl in plum blossom makeup.

Xie Lingjiang turned his head as usual, and there were wonderful eyes on his face from the wrapped veil.

The two women who handed the handkerchiefs looked at each other.

Before Ouyang Rong raised his hand, Li Bao'er suddenly withdrew the embroidered phoenix handkerchief and stuffed it back into his sleeve, his eyes were impermanent.

Ouyang Rong raised his hand and directly took the little junior sister's white lotus handkerchief.

Lowering his eyes and wiping his mouth, and carefully wiping his fingers, he turned the handkerchief over and folded it, handed it back to Xie Lingjiang, and pointed to the corners of her lips that were stained with milky white powder, and ate what was left by Sushan.

Xie Lingjiang took back the handkerchief, wiped the corners of his lips with the clean handkerchief that the senior brother seemed to have left, and his eyes avoided the sight of the family members, a little embarrassed.

Why is the senior brother so straight, he doesn't treat me as an outsider at all.

Xie's daughter's heart beat faster.

Some resentment.

I don't know if I tasted some watermelon juice between my lips.

It's a little sweet.

She quickly glanced in the direction of the elder brother, but found that after he handed the handkerchief, he turned around as if nothing happened, and paced in the room behind his back.

Ouyang Rong ignored the little junior sister's complaining gaze.

He paced around the house, looked around, looked at the Su Mansion in the corner of the south of the Yangtze River with emotion, and muttered:

"Why did the Buddha's Five Finger Mountain only crush the monkey for 500 years, instead of 5 million years or 5 million years?"

The weak-crowned strategist seems to be asking himself, and he seems to be asking people.

Li'er raised his eyes, his eyes curious: "What Wuzhi Mountain, what Sun Monkey?" ”

"Uh, it's fine."

Ouyang Rong shook his head, he remembered that there seemed to be no Journey to the West in this world, and he didn't bother to speak.

Li'er and the others looked at him more and more curiously.

Ouyang Rong pursed his lips and said it differently:

"In that game in the sky, most people don't dare to make mistakes, or even dare to try, what if they try and make mistakes, and they are really degraded and ignored?

"But uncle is different, your family is different,

"Even if you are crushed under the Five Finger Mountain...... Well, as long as you don't die, there will always be opportunities.

"Why?"

He asked himself:

"Because my uncle is His Majesty's flesh and blood, Taizong's direct bloodline, and Tianhuang noble."

The words were blunt.

caused everyone to look at each other.

Listening to it in his ears, when Lianghan's virtuous nephew was emotional, his face was ashamed, and he didn't dare to answer, because the virtuous nephew in front of him was from a poor family.

But when these calm words fell on the ears of Xie Lingjiang, who knew someone, there was an indescribable ridicule.

She couldn't help but glance at the senior brother with a calm face.

With a bang, Ouyang Rong slapped a slender palm on the table, facing everyone, and immediately decided:

"The person who offers auspicious rui has already been selected, and I will persuade it.

"Aunt Wei and the little lady immediately went to get all the house money, divided the money to the little sister, and handed over the rest of the money to the eldest man."

He turned his head:

"Little junior sister, you can set off, buy jade in Lingnan, and bring back a perfect jade ring, the more unique the better."

"Da Lang, uncle, you go to find Liulang, and then go to Donglin Temple, donate money to repair the tower, we want to build the largest floating tower in the southeast realm, and worship 'Yu Jue'!"

Xie Lingjiang and the family were in good spirits, obeyed their words, got up one after another, and hugged their fists to lead their lives.

Before leaving, Ouyang Rong suddenly turned his head and asked:

"Uncle, aunt, big man, leave the little lady, you just believe me, this set of expenses is to disperse the wealth of the Su family, and even all the birthday ceremonies from the little lady must be put into it, from now on, it will be difficult to return to the rich man's life, so you are not afraid to follow me to play smashed?"

Lifu Su's face flushed, and his tone was categorical: "I believe in Tanlang!" ”

Lixian and Wei Mei shook each other's arms, gritted their teeth, and nodded excitedly:

"Don't be afraid, Tan Lang's plan, I will listen to it, scatter all the wealth, and I will not regret it!"

Leave the wrapping head: "Cai, the plan is in the people." ”

Ouyang Rong looked around, poured tea and water in front of him, and respectfully served his family, and sighed:

"If you believe it and don't doubt it, then I will live up to it."

At this time, Wei Mei cautiously looked at the weak crown strategist with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and asked in a low voice:

"Tan Lang, if this plan to offer auspicious rui is successful, we... What will happen? ”

Ouyang Rong squinted: "Uncle prays for his mother, filial piety to heaven and earth, accidentally 'seriously ill', naturally must be treated, in line with the Great Zhou Lungang and the hearts of the people in the world." ”

"Then Shichiro is going back...... Luoyang? ”

Ouyang Rong shook his head with great certainty:

"It's not that easy.

"Uncle is the body of the abolished emperor, and the matter of returning to Luo involves a lot of things, and there are thousands of stakeholders, which can deeply change the pattern of the court.

"Your Majesty is keen on imperial power, balancing the court is the basic logic, and how he will deal with his 'seriously ill' uncle when the time comes, is indeed a bit intriguing.

"It's hard to decide for the time being, I'm afraid I can't go back to Luo directly, but I will definitely leave the birdcage of Dragon City.

"Actually, what most inhibits His Majesty's actions is the battle over the departure of the guard.

"From the incident of stealing the Ding Sword in Longcheng, it can be seen that the Wei family is not dead hearted, and he never forgets the Ding Sword, trying to turn the tables, and will not easily admit that he lost the chess, and compromised to welcome his uncle.

"In addition, the Xiangwang side may not fully support it...... Well. ”

When Ouyang Rong said this, he paused quietly, and everyone saw that the smile on the corner of his mouth was a little intriguing.

Pouting, skipping here, Ouyang Rong spoke clearly and thought trickily:

"Moreover, the uncle has broken with His Majesty on the surface, and the cracks in the relationship between mother and son on the bright side are difficult to completely repair just by praying for blessings and offering auspiciousness.

"What's more, my uncle's move is going around in circles, and Your Majesty, as a master of going around in circles, how can you not, and also go around in circles.

"But it doesn't matter, this is the first step, throw stones and ask for directions.

"If you don't throw stones, how can you ask for a clear way?"

He lowered his eyes, arranged the sleeves of his robe, and said in an indifferent tone:

"Let's listen to the echo of Luojing."

"Tan Lang's clever plan, but the world can be safe!"

Everyone in the study room was immediately at ease, and they went out happily and ran separately.

Only Ouyang Rong and Xie Lingjiang were left in the room, standing and sitting.

"I'll send you off."

Ouyang Rong turned his head and said

Xie Lingjiang looked at him and nodded.

The two brothers and sisters went out, one after the other, walking on the corridor where the wind chimes were hung.

Today, after some tossing and turning, everything is resolved, and it is almost evening.

In the summer evening, it is slightly cooler, and the evening breeze is drunk.

Gusts of wind blew the sleeves and skirts of the slender man and woman on the corridor.

Jingle and the wind chimes are crisp, like knocking on the door at dusk.

Xie Lingjiang turned his head, looked at Ouyang Rong who was walking in front of him, the side face that flickered in the sunset, and asked softly:

"What is the senior brother thinking?"

"Huh? Didn't think about anything. ”

After the secret discussion in the study, Ouyang Rong, who found a little more unexpected joy, temporarily came back to his senses and ignored the crisp sound of wooden fish in his ears.

He looked back and asked:

"Do you like to eat Sushan so much?"

"Hmm." Xie Lingjiang nodded: "There is grape flesh in it." ”

Ouyang Rong smiled, "It's delicious." Then next time I come back, let Uncle Weber do more. ”

"Senior brother is not welcome now, treat this place as if he were home."

His tone was relaxed:

"What is there to be polite. You don't know the character of this family yet. Except for the little lady who left the young lady and had to pay a little attention, Da Lang and his uncle were not polite. ”

Xie Lingjiang immediately asked, "Why is Sister Bao'er special?" ”

"The appearance is gentle, the inside is strong, if you dare to provoke, it is easy to be bitten by her, and you can't shake it off, this kind of woman, I have always respected it."

"Oh, Senior Brother Gao Mingli."

After hearing this, Xie Lingjiang nodded quietly, and continued to ask:

"But before today, the senior brother still shirked and avoided their family's search for talent. Could it be that today I was really moved by Lifusu? ”

Ouyang Rong turned his head to look at Xie Lingjiang, didn't answer, and said softly:

"I once had a friend who told me an interesting truth, or a little routine."

"What's the truth, uh, what kind of routine?"

"When you refuse to help others, the process of refusal must be expressed with great regret.

"And when you agree to help someone, you must be very hesitant in the process of consenting."

Xie Lingjiang was stunned for a moment, couldn't help but look at Senior Brother twice, and asked:

"When did the senior brother agree by default?"

After a pause, she had a little look on her pretty face and muttered: "When you recovered from illness and went down the mountain not long ago?" ”

Ouyang Rong thought for a while: "Almost." ”

"Yes."

Xie Lingjiang bit his lip lightly.

"Away from my uncle, these days I have suffered from gains and losses, worries and sleeplessness, and even my father thinks that my senior brother is unwilling...... Big brother is a bit bad. ”

"It's not bad, well, it's called going around in circles." Ouyang Rong blinked: "You stupid junior sister, what do you know." ”

He sighed: "Many things need to be properly 'bypassed', which is not a simple problem to complicate it, but to deal with the problem properly."

"It's called, if you are in a hurry, you will be done slowly."

Ouyang Rong suddenly turned around and asked:

"I remember listening to you, what the little lady said, 'lies don't hurt people', 'the truth is a quick knife' These words teach you."

Xie Lingjiang nodded, "Yes, what's the matter, Senior Brother." ”

Ouyang Rong Youyou: "Then I also have a sentence to teach you." ”

Xie Lingjiang was curious: "What words?" ”

"Since ancient times, it is difficult to keep the true feelings, and only routines can win people's hearts." He nodded, "It's the same today." ”

Xie Lingjiang was slightly stunned, chewed for a while, and raised his head:

"Senior brother, this trick is really ...... Hey, it's okay, now that they have treated you as a guest of honor, they can't wait to dig out their hearts and lungs, and they don't dare to slack off at all. ”

After a pause, the red-dressed girl holding the sword suddenly squinted, and her cat-like voice said:

"Oh? I like to use truth and routines together, so is the senior brother also routine? ”

"......" Ouyang Rong.

Xie Lingjiang tilted his head, looked at Ouyang Rong's silent avoidance gaze, looked at his innocent eyes, and asked with a smile:

"Hmm, someone's invisible routine is too hard for the junior sister to be handled, right...... Ah! ”

Xie Lingjiang was halfway through the words of torture, when he suddenly covered his high forehead with both hands, wrinkled his little nose, and inhaled with silver teeth.

Somewhere on her forehead was white, with a pale red.

On the sunset corridor, a big chestnut was rewarded by the little junior sister who loves to draw inferences, Ouyang Rong snorted lightly and walked away with his back:

"Is it good, it's a good head, it's quite loud, someone has such a stupid brain, and he still needs my routine?"
