The reborn abandoned woman reigns

Chapter 91 Don't appreciate it

Shrugging his shoulders, Sima Xukong leaned back on the chair and said, "I don't think the two are similar. Also, isn't it just two officials quarreling, and why are you arguing and even being called a major national event? "

"What do you know? Even the debate between your lord and Grand Master Fang is about two attitudes towards things, how can you generalize it?"

Seemingly looking at the noisy scholar with interest, Sima Xukong smiled slightly and said playfully, "Then tell me, what's the difference between the two of them in their approach to things?"

It seemed that a topic of interest was mentioned, and the scholar immediately became energetic, with piercing eyes, and said eloquently: "Although you may not understand it, but the ancestors say that scholars have no boundaries. Today, I will tell you. Let’s talk about the stakes involved! Regarding the case of overturning the case, even the adults think that it can appease the descendants, correct the trend, and stabilize people’s hearts. However, Grand Master Fang feels that it is not worthwhile to waste people’s money for the deceased, and it has happened for many years. The difficulty is far beyond imagination, so it is better to use this power to improve the people's livelihood. Looking at the two separately, it makes sense. It seems that Fang Taishi's words are more in line with the people's hearts. After all, who cares about ordinary people The real culprit of the old case? Given that both are reasonable, the emperor is quite troubled, because no matter what choice he makes, he will deny the other side, which is easy to fall into the mouth."

Fumbling his jaw with his fingers, Sima Xukong said boredly: "Could it be that you are arguing so fiercely that you are talking about such simple truths? I am afraid that ordinary eight-year-old children can think of it."

"Of course it's more than that. I'm just telling you the background of the matter so that you don't understand it." The scholar looked at Sima Xukong like a fool, then put his hands behind his back and said slowly, " Regarding this matter, I think Fang Taishi's actions are really unwise, because Fang Taishi has always advertised himself with the word "benevolence and righteousness", but this time he came forward to argue, but he is full of coldness, which is of no benefit to him. In my opinion, Grand Master Fang should adopt a peaceful attitude, stay away from right and wrong, let others argue on his behalf, and then step outside himself, so that he can control the situation and make the situation develop in a direction that is beneficial to Grand Master Fang."

"Brother He, I can't agree with you." Before Sima Xukong could say anything, the leading scholar shook his head and said with a smile, "How can anyone in this world want to make a fool of himself in front of the emperor? They all want to show their best!" On the one hand, to win the favor of the emperor. Even if Fang Taishi is a veteran, but refuses to grant a reward. There are only two reasons for Fang Taishi's move. One is that Fang Taishi has something to hide, and through arguments, people's The line of sight shifted, from the matter of reversing the case, to the two opponents. The second is that Fang Taishi had a bad relationship with Lord Lian, broke his wings, cut off his vigor, and continued to suppress him to destroy the prestige of Lord Lian. But Brother He has a saying The words are still very satisfactory to me, but Grand Master Fang's move is not wise."

Raising his eyebrows, Changsun Jingrong looked at the leading bachelor, and couldn't help but take a few more glances, secretly thinking that this person is really thoughtful enough to be able to get these two points right.Then, maybe he is the person I'm looking for...

Looking deeply at the leading bachelor, Sima Xukong also let go of his cynicism, looked directly at the bachelor, and asked, "What's your name?"

As if he didn't expect someone to ask his name, the man froze for a moment, then smiled generously, "I'm here, Luo Qingzhe."

Luo Qingzhe, it really is him!

There was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and Changsun Jingrong lowered his head, thinking that Sima Xukong would hit him by mistake, and really met Luo Qingzhe.

This Luo Qingzhe will be a famous scholar in Kyushu in the future. If he is Sima Xukong's staff, then Sima Xukong will really go to the battlefield in the future, and there will be a soldier who can help him to avoid danger.

Silently recited the name in his heart, Sima Xukong said with a smile: "Your statement is really fresh, better than others, Bao'er, go reward it!"

Such insulting words and deeds made the scholars so angry that they wanted to rush forward again, shouting continuously.

Seeing that the scene would be even more chaotic if we stayed any longer, and this Sima Xukong didn't know what crazy words he was going to say, so Changsun Jingrong got up immediately and wanted to leave.

"What's going on here?"

A familiar voice sounded, causing Changsun Jingrong to look at the entrance, and Lian Xiuwen, who had just entered the door, also found Changsun Jingrong, and couldn't help being stunned.

At the moment when Lian Xiuwen was in a daze, a scholar ran over, looked at Sima Xukong indignantly, and accused him, "Lord Lian, someone is making trouble here!"

"Trouble! Who?"

"it's him!"

The moment he saw Sima Xukong, Lian Xiuwen wailed in his heart, why are you so idle today and came to the poetry club?Well now, I have a mess to throw myself to clean up!
In the eyes of everyone filled with righteous indignation, Lian Xiuwen walked up to Sima Xukong, and respectfully saluted, "Your Majesty, I have seen the Ninth Prince and Ninth Concubine."

"What, that is the Ninth Prince and Ninth Concubine?"

"Why did they come to our poetry club?"

"This Ninth Prince... really deserves his reputation, he is really cynical!"

Amidst the discussion, Sima Xukong said with a smile: "This is not the palace, even the adults don't need to be so polite. Why, do you like to come here to watch the excitement on weekdays?"

Lian Xiuwen froze, and said: "Before I entered the court as an official, I often met friends here."

Seemingly finding it unbelievable, Sima Xukong clicked his tongue and said, "I didn't expect that even my lord was born in such a place, no wonder he is not a storyteller. Forget it, I'd better go to the teahouse."

The corners of his mouth twitched, even Xiuwen didn't want to get entangled with this absurd prince for a moment, so he bowed and said, "Send off the prince and concubine!"

Sima Xukong nodded, turned around and walked out the door, but Changsun Jingrong knew that if today's incident ended like this, Sima Xukong's notoriety might spread, but when he turned his lower eyes, he turned to the door. Lian Xiuwen smiled and said, "I haven't seen Master Lian for a long time, and we happened to go to the tea house to have a sit together. I wonder if Master Lian will show you his face?"

I thought the matter would be settled here, but I didn't expect that Changsun Jingrong's words would bring him to the cusp of the storm again, causing him a lot of headaches.He raised his head with some confusion, and looked at Changsun Jingrong. Lian Xiuwen really wanted to reject her, but when he saw those clear eyes, he knew that Changsun Jingrong did it on purpose. If he disagreed, maybe this cunning The woman would come up with some kind of scheme to make herself defenseless, so she could only sigh lightly and said, "In this case, Xiuwen would be more respectful than obedient!"

"Jingrong, why did you let an outsider and... ahh!" Sima Xukong felt a pain in his toes before he could finish expressing his dissatisfaction. The pain made him forget to complain, and his face turned pale.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, several people left the poetry club together and walked towards an elegant teahouse across the street.

Limping into the private room, Sima Xu sat down with a humming air, ordered a bunch of refreshments crackling, and the guy ran out in a daze.

Looking sideways at Sima Xukong, Changsun Jingrong patted the table with his hand and said angrily, "You did it on purpose just now, didn't you?"

Staring at him, Sima Xukong asked back, "What's on purpose?"

"You still don't quite understand, do you?" Changsun Jingrong's eyes hardened, he got up and grabbed Sima Xukong's ear, and said angrily, "What kind of storytelling, what kind of teahouse, dare to drag me into the water, I see how brave you are!" It's getting bigger and bigger!"

"Ouch, Ouch, my concubine let go, it really hurts!"

"You know it hurts, but you still dare to act recklessly! Look at how you still looked like a prince just now. It's a joke for those students to see you, and they only think you are an idiot prince!"

"Who dares them, I will throw them into the prison! Don't be angry, princess, let go!"

Staring dumbfounded at the two people in front of him, Lian Xiuwen found it inconceivable that the Ninth Prince, who is so philandering, would be eaten to death by a woman?This eldest grandson Jingrong is clearly a shrew, why didn't he realize it before.And when the two were "flirting", I was completely redundant, I don't know why Changsun Jingrong wanted to follow him.

After a few more lessons, Changsun Jingrong "suddenly" found that Lian Xiuwen was still sitting beside him, so he suddenly let go of his hand, looked at him and said with a smile: "Oh, I forgot that Master Lian is still here, I made Master Lian laugh at you." .”

Stiffly raised the corners of his mouth, Lian Xiuwen waved his hands and said, "Where are the princes and concubines are people of true temperament, and they are very affectionate, which is really enviable."

After hearing Lian Xiuwen's words, Changsun Jingrong thought to himself who said that Lian Xiuwen is upright, isn't this also talking nonsense with open eyes?
Suppressing the slander in his heart, Changsun Jingrong said with a smile: "Since I married into the palace, I haven't met Mr. Lian. It seems that in the blink of an eye, our identities have changed."

Hearing the strangeness in the words, Sima Xu hurriedly asked, "Why, you two knew each other before?"

"Yes, at that time I was still running a silk and satin shop, and Mr. Lian was still a famous student. After getting to know each other, he found that he was very tempered, so he walked around frequently. By the way, how is the prince recently?"

"Oh, he's on an errand in the Ministry of Officials." Listening to Changsun Jingrong recalling before, even Xiuwen's anxious heart gradually calmed down, as if he saw the wanton flying at that time again.But, why is it suddenly cold in here?

The shop waiter hurried over with a bunch of refreshments in his hands, arranged the things one by one with a smile on his face, turned around and was about to leave.

"Hey, don't go yet!" Sima Xukong called the waiter to stop, picked up the plate in front of him, and asked, "What is this?"

The shop waiter was stunned for a moment, and replied: "Objective, this is our specialty, steamed stuffed with flowers."

"Why is Huaniangzheng half-baked?" Sima Xukong glared at the waiter in the shop, patted the table and said, "Don't you think none of us have eaten Huaniangzheng before?"

Lian Xiuwen looked at the plate, and felt that His Highness was bright in color and fragrant, and he didn't seem to be half-baked at all... His mind sank, and even Xiuwen looked at Sima Xukong again, thinking that no matter what he heard, he felt like It is already pointed out.

How could the eldest grandson Jingrong, who was familiar with Sima Xukong, not understand the mystery?Immediately, he waved to the little girl, and then said: "You go down first, we will call you if there is something to do."

His eyes wandered between Changsun Jingrong and Sima Xukong, and seeing that Sima Xukong didn't intend to get mad, he nodded and retreated.

Ever since he felt Sima Xukong's hostility, Lian Xiuwen was on pins and needles, and could feel a hostile gaze no matter what, and he couldn't dodge it.She pondered in her heart, she had already given her eldest grandson Jingrong face, and she had come here to sit down for a while, it was considered as she wanted, and now there is nothing wrong, he should be able to leave, right?
With such calculations in his mind, Lian Xiuwen cupped his hands and said, "Princess, my servant..."

"By the way, even adults know that the Ninth Prince likes to play chess very much." Changsun Jingrong interrupted Lian Xiuwen and said excitedly, "Bao'er, there is a place on the first floor of the teahouse where you can get chess pieces and chess boards. Bring it, let the prince and Lord Lian have some fun."

Sima Xukong wished that Lian Xiuwen could leave, only the two of them could be alone.But what kind of chess is he going to play now, when will this medicine be delayed!
But Changsun Jingrong ignored Sima Xukong's pitiful eyes, instead turned his head to look at Lian Xiuwen, and said, "My lord is also a man of superb chess skills. If you two meet today, you can be regarded as rivals in chess."

Laughing helplessly, Lian Xiuwen knew that today he was on the boat of Changsun Jingrong, and if he didn't help her achieve her goal, he would never leave.It's just what the eldest grandson Jingrong wants to do, and how can I help?This cunning woman is really full of calculations.

Sitting at the table, the two men each twisted a chess piece according to Changsun Jingrong's wishes, and started playing games with each other.

At the beginning, both of them looked cynical, and they didn't play seriously. They wanted to end the game earlier with a mediocre mentality.But as the number of moves increased, both of them found that the other party was not an ordinary person, so they couldn't help but concentrate and put all their energy on the chessboard, either frowning tightly, or making moves like flying, which made the chess game exciting immediately stand up.

The eldest grandson Jingrong who was sitting at the side saw this and sipped tea leisurely, his eyes flickering.

After fighting for a few rounds, Lian Xiuwen looked at Sima Xukong with a smile, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty's chess skills are superb, Xiuwen can't compare to himself!"

Stretching his arms, Sima Xukong also smiled and said: "It's really hearty. It's been a long time since I played a few games so freely. Your chess skills are not bad. If you didn't hesitate in a few places, this king might not be able to win such a game." quick."

The confidence and arrogance in Sima Xukong's tone caused Lian Xiuwen to be in a trance for a moment, as if all the impression of this philandering prince had disappeared in his heart, and he got to know Sima Xukong again.

"It is also a happy event for the prince to meet chess friends today, and there will be people who can learn from each other in the future." Changsun Jingrong put down his glass and said with a smile.

Turning around, I wanted to say something to my eldest grandson Jingrong, but when I saw him covering his face and yawning, he couldn't help asking with concern: "Why, Jingrong is tired?"

Nodding his head, Changsun Jingrong rubbed his eyes a little sleepily, and said, "Maybe I've been busy with a lot of things recently, and I feel a little tired right now."

"If that's the case, go back and rest earlier today."

Nestling gently in Sima Xukong's arms, Changsun Jingrong looked at Lian Xiuwen apologetically, and said, "Today I'm a little sick, so I'll catch up with Master Lian another day."

Hearing this, Lian Xiuwen hurriedly got up and bowed to him and said, "Where is the princess, it should be Xiu Wendeng's mansion to visit."

"Then it's settled. In the future, when you are free, you will often come and walk around, and also play a few games of chess with the lord." Changsun Jingrong smiled, with a strange luster in his eyes, staring at him with difficulty. Lian Xiuwen said slowly.

The burning uneasiness in his heart slowly rose again, Lian Xiuwen bowed his body and said, "It's fine if the prince and princess don't think the officials are bothering you."

After Lian Xiuwen left, Sima Xukong fiddled with the chess pieces in his hand, looked playfully at his eldest grandson Jingrong, and asked lazily: "Madam took me to the Literati Poetry Club today, I'm afraid there is something else hidden."

There was no longer the sleepiness just now, but there was a hint of shrewdness in his eyes. Changsun Jingrong said: "Take you to see the future pillars of the Longrui Kingdom. Isn't it more interesting than drinking tea and listening to a play? But today I will see I am really amazed at the prince's ability to pretend to be stupid. I am afraid that the next thing the students will argue is whether the Ninth Prince is really an embroidered pillow! But this time, the process of rebuttal will definitely not be so intense, because the result will definitely It's one-sided!"

There was an ambiguous smile on the corner of his mouth, Sima Xukong neither denied nor affirmed, but asked: "Jingrong thinks that even Xiuwen is a pillar of the country?"

"That's natural," Changsun Jingrong said firmly, "It's naturally beneficial to you to let this kind of plastic talent join your camp."

"But I don't need any alliance right now, because it's a life-threatening thing, a hot potato," Sima Xukong put his hands behind his head, and said leisurely, "I want to live a few more years, and I don't want to be harassed by these people." Tired of things."

Eyes narrowed slightly, Changsun Jingrong said sarcastically, "Since you also know the danger, why don't you find strength to protect yourself? Could it be possible to save yourself from danger by just being patient?"

Looking sideways at the bright eyes of his eldest grandson Jingrong, Sima Xukong said: "You are still too young to know what to wait for. Only by waiting for the best time can you defeat the enemy with one move and turn defeat into victory. The previous dormancy was just Just preserve your strength."

"Then why don't you also absorb the strength I have found for you?" Changsun Jingrong put his hand on his chin and said with a seductive smile, "Even Xiuwen's character is not bad, and the strategy is not bad. If you are sincere With you, he will be your most capable assistant. And Luo Qingzhe, although he is only a scholar now, but you have also seen his knowledge and character, and he is also a leader. Now neither of these two people has joined the camp of a certain adult In the middle, you completely use the opportunity for your own use, don't you just not be tempted?"

Slowly leaning forward, approaching the eldest grandson Jingrong, Sima Xukong didn't seem to care what the eldest grandson Jingrong said, and said with a smile: "When did you care about me so much? Are you moved by my tenderness and have fallen in love with me?" What about me?"
