After reading it like a treasure, Xu Jinghan put the knife in his pocket, glanced at the paper bag in Ning Songyue's hand, and reached out to take it.

This is the jade bead he asked Ning Songyue to buy on the street.

"Why did it take you so long to buy something?"

"Oh! I just saw the notice issued by the imperial court over there, and I took a look at it. It was delayed." Ning Songyue replied.

When Xu Jinghan asked, Ning Songyue remembered.

"By the way, have you heard? The notice issued by the imperial court said that this year's palace examination will be postponed in January." Ning Songyue raised her head, as if she was thinking about something.

Xu Jinghan let out an "oh" and seemed a little careless: "Mr. Zhu Yuanzhang's thoughts are not something ordinary people like us can guess, just obediently listen to the arrangements."

Ning Songyue: "I'm just curious why His Majesty the Emperor suddenly changed his mind? What happened to it?"

Xu Jinghan laughed in a low voice: "Then I have to ask my good brother. Looking around the world, Mr. Zhu Yuanzhang obeys him."

This is true, if it is said that when Zhu Xiongying was young, Zhu Yuanzhang just loved Zhu Xiongying, then it is still in the past, but it is different now, Zhu Yuanzhang will discuss with Zhu Xiongying about any major issues in the court, and even listen to many important matters Zhu Xiongying's opinion, this is not something ordinary people can be treated like!
Xu Jinghan even suspected that Zhu Xiongying was the illegitimate son of Zhu Yuanzhang who was fostered in Duke Wei's mansion!
But Zhu Xiongying does have amazing talent, this is undeniable.

Ning Songyue opened her mouth, thinking that she might have made a mistake.

"Master Xu? What does this have to do with Master Xu?"

Xu Jinghan glanced at Ning Songyue's face full of question marks, and smiled: "The ins and outs of this are too complicated to be finished in a few words, and I can tell you slowly in the future, as long as you know that Huaiying is Just help you."

Ning Songyue seemed to understand but didn't understand, she was curious but didn't dare to ask more, so she nodded.

In short, judging from all the signs, the Mr. Xu he knew was not just an ordinary person!
In Duke Wei's mansion, Zhu Xiongying was about to go out when he met Xu Zhirong in the yard.

The other party seems to be going out too.

"Rong'er, but you want to go out?"

Xu Zhirong actually saw Zhu Xiongying before Zhu Xiongying, rubbed the handkerchief in his hand, and said hesitantly: "Well, I want to go out for a walk, where is Brother Huaiying?"

Zhu Xiongying lowered his hands: "To the Rouge shop, do you want to go with me?"

Xiaorou looked at the downcast eyes of her own lady, and stopped rubbing the handkerchief in her hand, which was "horrible", and really didn't understand why.

Zhu Xiongying waited for a long time but did not get Xu Zhirong's answer. Just when he was about to speak again, Xu Zhirong said in a low voice: "Then go with Brother Huaiying."

Zhu Xiongying smiled from the bottom of his heart: "Okay, then I'll ask someone to prepare the carriage."

"No need." Xu Zhirong said before Zhu Xiongying turned around, "Let's walk slowly."

Zhu Xiongying was a little surprised: "The Duke's Mansion is a little far away from the Rouge Shop, and it takes about a stick of incense to walk, I'm afraid your feet will hurt."

"It's okay, I'm not as weak as you think." Xu Zhirong pouted in dissatisfaction, "Xiaorou, you can go back, brother Huaiying and I can go."

Xiaorou hurriedly came back to her senses, nodded: "Yes, Miss."

"Okay." Zhu Xiongying smiled helplessly.

I feel that Xu Zhirong is getting older now, and occasionally he still plays a bit of a petty temper. He is obviously a well-educated, dignified and elegant lady, but when he meets him, he looks like a little girl, which is a bit cute.

Xu Zhirong is wearing a light blue robe today, a black gold cloud embroidered shirt, and a crescent phoenix-tailed skirt. The hem of the skirt is outlined with gold powder thread, embroidered with blossoming crabapple flowers, which seem to be blooming in her Average underfoot.As you walk, flowers bloom every step of the way, swaying and colorful.

Her skin was already very fair, but the cyan skirt made her skin look like fat. Her beautiful eyes were clear and soft, as if they were full of spring water, her red lips were bright, and there was a slight smile on her lips. The makeup is light, like a hibiscus out of water, elegant and moving, beautiful beyond the ordinary.

Hibiscus is not as good as beauty makeup, and the water palace wind comes with pearl and green fragrance.

Now Zhu Xiongying can be considered to understand how beautiful the ancient beauties are, and they are like fish and wild goose.

My younger sister's birth is so overwhelming, and I feel a little proud of being an older brother.

The two of them were walking on the street, their figure and appearance and their temperament attracted many passers-by to look at them sideways.

Xu Zhirong noticed the eyes of passers-by, and shrank behind Zhu Xiongying shyly, Zhu Xiongying smiled softly: "Rong'er is a big girl, why are you still so shy."

Xu Zhirong ignored him and just pushed him.

The woman's strength was weak, and Xu Zhirong didn't use any strength. When it reached Zhu Xiongying's back, it was soft like white clouds, but Zhu Xiongying's heart was still warm.

"Hey! Did Mr. Xu Xiaolang bring his little wife here today!" A big sister who knew Zhu Xiongying on the street shouted loudly.

Xu Zhirong immediately blushed like a steamed shrimp, and walked forward quickly.

Zhu Xiongying hurriedly chased the person, but she didn't have time to explain to the elder sister.

Not long after, the two arrived at the rouge shop, but found that the shop was empty.

"Where's the person? My brother isn't there either." Xu Zhirong looked around and said to Zhu Xiongying.

Zhu Xiongying scanned the house, then went to the backyard and shouted to make sure no one was there.

Where did you go?

Zhu Xiongying suddenly felt a little uneasy, and frowned slightly.

Xu Zhirong sensed Zhu Xiongying's emotions, and said, "Isn't it because I went out to buy something?"

Tell Zhu Xiongying directly that this matter is not so simple.

"Rong'er, you stay in the shop, I'll go out and look for them."

Although Xu Zhirong didn't understand why Zhu Xiongying did this, he still agreed.

Zhu Xiongying hurried out of the rouge shop.

About half a stick of incense, Xu Zhirong heard footsteps in the backyard.

She stood up in a panic and looked into the backyard, only to see a familiar figure appearing in front of her eyes.

"Miss Xu! Why are you here?" Ning Songyue's eyes widened, very happy for Xu Zhirong's arrival.

Xu Zhirong settled down, her heart was almost in her throat just now, Zhu Xiongying's reaction just now made her feel as if something bad was about to happen, now she was alone in the rouge shop, with people coming and going, suddenly Some scared.

"Where did you go? We didn't see any of you."

"Oh, I just went to the street behind to buy some snacks." Ning Songyue smiled, her brows crooked, "The shopper is an old man, seeing how pitiful I am, I go to buy some snacks from time to time, as a small effort. "

Knowing that Ning Songyue is a kind-hearted person, Xu Zhirong smiled and nodded.

At this moment, a group of masked men stood in front of the Rouge Shop, blocking most of the light.
