Chang'an is good

Chapter 163 Is Wei Shilang a Thief?
In the letter, Duan made an agreement with her that on the day of Chongyang, he would take her to the Palace of Princess Chongyue to offer sacrifices.

Princess Chongyue's mansion is not something one can enter at any time, even if it is the Duan family, it must have a name. The Double Ninth Festival sacrifices to the deceased is very suitable for both emotion and reason.

Now there is only half a month left before the Double Ninth Festival.

This matter was settled, Chang Suining had a solid idea in his mind, so he collected the letter, handed it to Xi'er, and said to Wei Shuyi: "Please answer Mrs. Duan, Minister Wei, and tell me that I will not miss the appointment."

Wei Shuyi didn't know what day his aunt had invited Chang Suining to do, he only smiled and nodded in response.

Then he looked at Chang Suining with a smile, and said: "Today, I was ordered by the sage to see General Chang off. I thought I would see Mrs. Chang at the gate of the city, so I might as well pass this letter along. So I had no choice but to come to your mansion to bother you."

As he said that, he looked at Cui Jing: "But I didn't expect that Governor Cui was here... Is Governor Cui planning to go back?"

Cui Jing said "um", but his feet didn't move.

Although Wei Shuyi always greets everyone with a smile and can talk to mosquitoes flying by, he always feels that this person treats Chang Suining differently from others.

Speaking of which, the first time he saw Chang Suining impressively, she appeared with Wei Shuyi.

At that time, she and Wei Shuyi returned to Beijing from Hezhou and were assassinated together.

Because he was not used to inquiring into other people's private affairs, even though he saw that she was a daughter at that time and quickly knew her identity, he never studied why she appeared in Hezhou and what she had experienced.

He didn't know, but Wei Shuyi did.

In this way, Wei Shuyi and her had known each other earlier, and there were some secrets and tacit understanding between the two of them.

She likes to make friends so much, and formed an association in the Imperial College, so, in her eyes, Wei Shuyi is also her friend, right?

Cui Jing's face was indifferent and calm, but the fingers behind his back tapped silently from time to time, his eyes went back and forth silently between Chang Suining and Wei Shuyi, paying attention to the conversation between the two.

The two chatted for a while, Wei Shuyi's gaze fell on the chessboard beside him, and asked curiously, "Madam Chang was playing chess just now?"

"Yeah." Chang Suining looked at Cui Jing, with a casual tone, "We had a game with Cui Dadu."

Wei Shuyi became more and more curious: "Who loses and who wins?"

Cui Jing looked at him: "I lose, she wins."

Wei Shuyi looked away from the chessboard, looked at Cui Jing, and laughed in surprise: "Cui Dadu has lost?"

Cui Jing: "She has exquisite chess moves, advances and retreats freely and decisively, so it's no surprise that I lose."

Wei Shuyi laughed again.

When he saw Cui Ling'an, he was not only convinced, but also faintly felt that it was good to lose, that the loss was very satisfactory, and he should feel like losing like this?

"It's the first time I've heard Governor Cui praise someone like this. I'm afraid it's not an exaggeration from someone with a heart?"

Wei Shuyi's eyes turned back and forth between the two, and finally looked at Chang Suining with a smile: "I wonder if Wei is lucky enough to be taught by Mrs. Chang, so that Wei can tell the truth from Cui Dadu's words?"

Chang Sui would rather not think about it, so he refuses to say next time, she has been sitting for half a day, even if the Heavenly King Lao Tzu comes, there is no possibility of telling her to sit for another half day, but when she was about to speak, she heard a voice that preceded her. step.

"Since I lost, you have no chance of winning, so there is no need to do anything extra." Cui Jing said calmly.

Wei Shuyi frowned: "Cui Ling'an, are you saying that I am superior in chess skills and am not as good as you?"

Cui Jing's face was calm, but he didn't say anything, but his expression had already given the answer.

Wei Shuyi simply raised his hand to show the direction of the chessboard, and suggested: "Empty talk is useless, why don't you and I compete for a game now?"

The opportunity to play chess with Cui Ling'an is more rare than playing chess with Mrs. Chang.

Cui Jing: "Today is not free, I will be waiting in Xuan Ce Mansion anytime in the future."

Wei Shuyi didn't pick anything, and withdrew his hand: "Okay, then it's settled!"

Cui Jing nodded, and said: "Since Wei Shilang has brought the letter, I think it's time to go back."

Wei Shuyi: "?"

He hasn't even had a cup of tea yet.

Cui Jing has already invited: "Why don't you go together, how about?"

Uncle Wei was surprised.

Needless to say, this was the first time he was "invited" by Cui Ling'an to do something together.

He seemed to think for a while, then nodded and smiled slightly: "Alright."

He bid farewell to Chang Suining and Chang Sui'an, and said with a smile to Chang Suining: "...So, after I win the defeat of Mrs. Chang, I will play chess with Mrs. Chang."

Chang Suining nodded with a smile, and glanced at Cui Jing: "Okay."

Cui Jing didn't look sideways, but Yuan Xiang felt that the governor's heart was about in front of the steep mountain gate of the Shu Road, and he had set up a chess formation to block the enemy.

Seeing this, Chang Suian said, "I'll send Governor Cui and Wei Shilang off!"

"No need to trouble." Wei Shuyi said with a smile: "Wei is already familiar with the road in the front yard of your mansion, so you can leave the mansion by yourself."

Cui Jing looked at him: "..." Is this person showing off something?

Chang Sui'an didn't insist on seeing him off, but he still needed someone to lead the way.

Cui Jing walked two steps, but suddenly stopped as if thinking of something, and looked back at Chang Suining.

Chang Suining: "Is there any other business for Governor Cui?"

"It's inevitable that what happened last time will happen again. I have had someone bring Duo Huo back to Xuan Ce Mansion." Cui Jing said.

This is a good thing, but Chang Sui Ning felt a little strange in his heart, why did he...why did he tell her about Duanhuo?
"I remember that when I was at the Furongyuan Racecourse, Liuhuo treated you very close." Cui Jing explained: "You promised to go to see it again."

Is it because of this?

Chang Suining came back to his senses, seemed to think about it, and then nodded: "It seems to be the case."

But it was obviously just her polite words at the time, did he really take it seriously?
Cui Jing said solemnly: "Liuhuo is very intelligent, and because of his age, he has become more human. Since you agreed to see it, if you don't see it, it will always worry about you."

Chang Suining agrees with this, now that she has the opportunity to see Liao Huo openly, she will not refuse, so she nodded: "Okay, then I will go to Xuan Ce Mansion to see it when I have time."

Cui Jing nodded and left.

On the way, Wei Shuyi looked at the young man beside him in surprise, and asked in a low voice, "I said Cui Ling'an...you have to drag me along. Are you guarding against thieves?"

The young man paused slightly, turned his head to look at him, did not deny or evade, but asked him instead: "Then Wei Shilang is a thief?"

Facing the noble and cold eyes of the young man, Wei Shuyi was startled suddenly.

The autumn wind blew past, and the two looked at each other silently for a moment.

Wei Shuyi's eyes flickered slightly, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, he raised his foot and walked forward, half-jokingly said: "You just take me for granted."

Cui Jing looked at his back, and continued walking after a while.

Wei Shuyi slowed down two steps, and when Cui Jing came over, he suddenly asked curiously, "Growfire...what is it?"

Cui Jing said softly: "I don't answer the thief's question easily."

He should have some secrets and tacit understanding with her that is not humane.

Wei Shuyi only felt that the other party's targeting was so straightforward that it was ridiculous: "I said Cui Ling'an, why don't you cover it up?"

However, the other party answered calmly: "Everyone knows it, so why do we have to cover it up?"

Wei Shuyi didn't know that he was doing a play that night, even if he wanted to make the show look more like a show in front of outsiders, it's understandable for him to do this - Cui Jing thought so.

"You..." Wei Shuyi shook his head amusedly, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Before this, Wei really didn't expect that when Cui Dadu had his favorite person, it turned out to be so...naturally carved."

Cui Jing ignored him and walked faster.

Wei Shuyi quickly followed, and when he stepped out of the gate of the Changfu, he asked again: "If you don't answer the thief, then Cui Dadu also agrees to play against the thief?"

Cui Jing didn't look at him: "Naturally, it's also to guard against thieves."

"..." Wei Shuyi Wangtian sighed: "In this world, it is very difficult to find a second person who is as sincere and open as you."

Cui Jing only took it as a compliment, and when he left the Changfu, he got on his horse and left.

Wei Shuyi watched the figure ride his horse and disappear into the workshop, and then he showed an indistinguishable smile.

He looked up at the gate of the Chang Mansion, and after a while, he said, "Let's go."

When Qiao Yubai got off the carriage outside the gate of Changfu, he just saw Wei Shuyi's official sedan chair going away.

"Whose official sedan chair was that just now?"

After being welcomed into Changfu by the disciples, Qiao Yubai asked curiously.

"Wei Shilang just came here, and Governor Cui also came to see the general off in the morning, and he just left."

Hearing Cui Jing's name, Qiao Yubai felt a little nervous subconsciously, and then relaxed again—or maybe there were too many discussions outside, and he could hear calluses in his ears every day in the Imperial College, and after being in it for a long time, he always It is easy to forget that the matter of the hibiscus flower banquet is that Cui Dadu and Ning Ning partnered up to show the inside story to outsiders, and the mood is always wandering back and forth between tension and excitement and relaxation and happiness.

Qiao Yubai soon met Chang Suining.

"I want to have a lesson in the Imperial College today, why did Brother Yubai come here?"

"I asked for leave." Qiao Yubai said with a smile, "Uncle Chang is going on an expedition today, and Father and I went outside the city to see him off. Father couldn't ask for leave, so he went back to the Imperial College first."

He said again: "My father and mother said that since Uncle Chang is not at home now, Ningning and you will inevitably be lonely by yourself. Why don't you move to live with the head of the Imperial College, and you don't have to run back and forth every few days."

He's here to pick up people.

Chang Sui'an on the side widened his eyes: "What do you mean Ning Ning is alone, and I'm still at home!"

As soon as Dad left, Qiao Yubai, the thief, came to steal his sister!
Qiao Yubai looked at him when he heard the words, and suddenly he seemed to realize that there was Chang Suian in Changfu, but it didn't affect anything: "Our place is more lively, with Mianmian and Ningning as companions, and after all It’s more appropriate to have elders around to take care of you.”

"Aren't I here!" A Dian who came to Chang Suining just now raised her hand immediately: "Aren't I the elder of Xiao Ah Li? I can take care of her!"

Chang Suian: "...Yes, I'm a bit uncle!"

Ah Dian caught Guan Shi again and stood in front of him: "There is another one here!"

As he said that, he turned his eyes to see which servant looked old enough, trying to catch them all to make up the number.

"..." Qiao Yubai could only look at Chang Sui Ning: "Ning Ning, what do you think?"

Chang Suining thought about it for a moment, and said: "The autumn harvest has just started recently, and the various farms are busy. I will go to the Imperial College after I finish this busy period."

Qiao Yubai knew that she was going to the farm, so he didn't force her when he heard it, he just told her not to work too hard, and remember to go back to the Imperial College when she had time.

Chang Suining responded with a smile, and finally said: "When I'm not around, Brother Lao Yubai has to worry more about the affairs in the Wuer Society."

In the future, the days when she has to go to the Imperial College to play polo will probably become less and less.

……

Not long after, Chang Suian successfully passed the re-examination of the Xuance Army, and was selected into the forward battalion as he wished—but it was not immediately possible to play a forward on the battlefield. In addition, sufficient combat experience is also required.

Now Chang Sui'an is selected as a recruit into the forward battalion, but only as a forward candidate. If he wants to truly become a qualified forward soldier, he still needs to go through some actual combat training.

For Chang Sui'an, this is already a very happy thing, and finally his hard work for the past few months has not been wasted.

Next, as a recruit, he needs to enter the camp to adapt to life in the army, accept drills, and become familiar with military regulations.

This trip will take seven or eight days before returning home. Before leaving, he repeatedly told his sister carefully for a long time, wishing he could turn her into a small bamboo dragonfly in Ah Dian's hand, and take it with him in his bag so that he can feel at ease.

Naturally, this wish cannot come true, Chang Suian secretly wiped two tears with his back to his sister after getting on the horse.

After sending off his elder brother, Chang Suining went to Zhuangzi again.

The autumn harvest was over everywhere, and Shen Sanmao brought all the account books that had been processed to Chang Suining. When Chang Suining looked through them, he rubbed his hands a little uneasily, bowed his body slightly and apologized with a smile: "This year's harvest is not very good. Ruyi, but don't worry, girl, next year..."

"No, it's very satisfactory." Chang Suining looked at the account book and said, "It has already doubled."

This……

Shen Sanmao smiled awkwardly.

It is true that it has doubled, but that is because the previous harvest is too ugly, basically no different from half-wasted, this double is really easy.

"The villain originally promised the girl that he would at least quadruple first..."

Chang Suining smiled: "Is there any reason to become a fat man after one bite? You just took over this season, and it is considered a temporary order. Besides, you manage more than one farm. Everywhere has been lazy and deserted for a long time. Go down to the fields. , Up to the peasants, it is not easy to rectify, and it is only the first time for you to wade across this river, and the results now show that you have never slacked off."

Shen Sanmao was stunned.

He thought that the girl who dared to use him as a deadly liar to do things was somewhat out of touch with reality, but now she is so realistic, so tolerant and considerate.

Shen Sanmao, who had been prepared to be scolded or even buried for failing to complete the Haikou he had boasted about, was moved in his heart at this moment, tears of grievance burst out of the corners of his eyes, and his voice choked up.

"The girl just hit the point. Those lazy peasants are really hard to discipline and unreasonable. At first, because they were dissatisfied with the villain's arrangement, they gathered together and threw cow dung at the villain!"

Chang Suining looked at him sympathetically, it was very miserable, she asked with concern: "Then did you hit him back?"
