Refinement

After the morning court, all the courtiers dispersed, the old man of the Li family hurriedly stopped Luo Xian and invited him to meet with the Holy Majesty.Luo Xian did not refuse, and walked with Old Man Li. Before the two of them reached the imperial study, Old Man Li knelt in front of the door and shouted: "Your Majesty! This old minister is guilty!"

The eunuch came out from inside: "Lord Li, the emperor asked you to go in and talk."

Old man Li pulled Luo Xian's sleeve to stand up, and pulled Luo Xian into the imperial study together.Before he could stand still, he knelt down on the ground again with a thud: "Your Majesty! The old minister is here to make an apology!"

The emperor is holding an ink pen and is painting.Seeing old man Li knelt down, he put down his pen and said softly, "What is the Qing family's crime?"

The old man Li looked at Luo Xian sadly, then slowly turned to the emperor, and said sadly: "The old minister knows that Luo Hou looks up to my grandson Li Chengmao, and it is a great honor to ask him to heal his illness and relieve the emperor's worries. He called him home and repeatedly told the emperor how much he valued him, but my ineffective grandson ran away from home overnight in fear of the grace of God!"

Luo Xian didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and was about to speak, but was interrupted by old man Li.He took out a bottle of medicine from his sleeve, cupped his hands and said: "My ignorant grandson thought he was right and boasted so much that he had a relationship with Luohou. Now that the Holy One is also concerned about this matter, he lost his position and showed his prototype! The old minister heard what Li Yanan from the Imperial Medical Office said, and he probably knew that Mr. Su's condition was serious and he was dying, so he was extremely panicked. So he took the holy medicine 'Baoyuan Pill' from home and offered it, wishing to relieve His Majesty's worries and make up for the old minister's crimes!"

The emperor said: "I heard that 'Baoyuan Pill' is the treasure of the Li family. Are you willing to give it away?"

"Be willing to give up! To tell you the truth, although the 'Baoyuan Pill' can protect Mr. Su's vitality and relieve his pain during the onset of illness, it can't cure the disease, it can only prolong his life."

Emperor: "I know that the late emperor took your 'Baoyuan Pill' before he died, so that he regained consciousness and finally passed the throne to me. How long can you protect him with this bottle of medicine?"

Old man Li said: "There are ten pills in the bottle, you can't take them at the same time, take one pill every three days, if there is no accident, it will keep him alive for a month."

The emperor looked at Luo Xian: "Is it enough? There is only one last step left for what the widow told you."

Luo Xian cupped his hands: "Thank you, Your Majesty! Thank you, Lord Li!"

Luo Xian returned to the Hou Mansion worriedly, and the housekeeper personally brought him tea: "Shicheng Hill is preparing to move tonight, and the villain is ready."

"Where's the little boy?"

The housekeeper said: "I have been resting since last night, saying that it is to cultivate my health and rest, and not to be disturbed by others. Only rice wine is taken care of by myself, and neither of us has eaten."

Luo Xian nodded: "I see, go get busy."

The housekeeper hesitated for a while, and then said: "There is one more thing, that is—the princess has been here. I stayed in the young master's room for a long time, and seemed to have a good chat. When I left, I was full of joy and tipped a lot People. A villain thinks that this young master—" He didn't finish his sentence, but he clearly showed his wariness towards Su Yulian.Princess Fushan treats people kindly, but she rarely rewards her servants because of her own happiness. Her rewards are always only given to those who have meritorious service, only this accident.

"Go get Xiao Jiuer over, forget it, I'll go find him, and you go prepare some fruit and snacks."

Su Yulian has been sleeping, Xiao Jiuer rests his chin, the flesh on his face is piled on his hands, and his small eyes are staring at him. Luo Xian walked in the door and saw this scene. For the first time, he realized that Su Yulian was nothing at all. If you do it, you can also be liked because of your pretty face.Going to see Su Yulian again, he was lying lazily, with his left arm covering his eyes, wondering if he was really asleep.

Xiao Jiu'er suddenly realized that Luo Xian was standing next to him, and called Hou Ye awkwardly.Su Yulian moved his arm away when he heard the sound, and looked at him sideways: "You are here."

The butler quietly served fruit and snacks, and Luo sat down leisurely: "I plan to come and have something to eat with you."

Su Yulian smiled and said, "I'm waiting for you to eat together, so you give me this?"

Luo Xian was a little surprised, and ordered Xiao Jiuer to go to the kitchen to order food.Turning around and asking Su Yulian: "What's the matter?"

Su Yulian tasted a piece of apple, and said calmly: "No, I just want to have dinner with you. It's too deserted to eat by myself, and Xiao Jiuer and I are at the same table without moving chopsticks, so I have no choice but to find you."

He didn't say sarcasm, but made Luo Xian feel uncomfortable. "I promised to stay with you for an hour every day, but I've been busy and forgot. Have you ever recalled the past memories?"

Su Yulian smiled purely: "I can help you find what you want without any memories, and I won't eat and drink for nothing."

Luo Xian couldn't laugh, and took out the medicine bottle from his sleeve: "Shi Chengqiu will come back this afternoon, and I will send Shi Xiaoyu to go with him tonight. We will leave in two days, and we will have to work hard and feel wronged." You are gone. I couldn't keep an eye on Li Chengmao, so I just asked for a bottle of medicine, which you take with you, take it once every three days, and it will make you feel better."

When the first dish came to the table, Su Yulian stretched out his hand and squeezed a piece of green vegetables into his mouth, saying, "If someone is with you, everything is delicious! Come eat with me in the future. If two people eat together, the taste will be better than before."

While talking, two more dishes were brought to the table, Luo Xian remembered that it was only the two of them who ate at the same table in the past, and suddenly felt a little sour in his heart. Time has passed, and the happiest thing for him is to eat with him.Luo Xian pursed his lips and picked up the chopsticks, obviously losing his composure, Su Yulian noticed it, but just smiled at him.He said softly: "It's almost dusk, I have to have fun. In the last few minutes of my time, I should live selfishly. Always targeting you, I am also very tired."

It seemed that they had a relaxed meal, and the two people who had their own concerns pretended to have a relaxed meal for an hour.

"What did you say to the princess today? I heard that she rewarded many servants."

Su Yulian scratched her head with an innocent expression: "I think the housekeeper conveyed too much, and there are not many rewards."

Luo Xian: "I'm curious, what did you say?"

Su Yulian said: "Some things have happened recently, and it seems that the Hou's Mansion is very dull. I chatted with her, and when I talked about her principles, I joked that I asked her to reward my servants on my behalf, and let the idlers in the Hou's Mansion have something to do. If the princess does something abnormal, it will definitely attract people's attention, she said it's okay to try, so she rewarded a few servants as agreed."

Luo Xian: "Is it that simple?"

Su Yulian: "The matter of rewarding servants is as simple as that. But I hid my selfishness in order to attract your attention. Please come and accompany me for dinner. Although we live in the same mansion, we rarely get close. The princess helped me this time." I have given up on me, and I plan to repay her well."

Luo Xian looked at him quietly and didn't speak.

Su Yulian sighed: "Let me tell you a story, the story about the rabbit and the moon, have you heard it?"

"You said."

"Well, there was a rabbit who fell in love with the moon. Every day when it was getting dark, the rabbit waited for the moon to come out and looked at the moon obsessively. Just looking at the moon made him feel very satisfied. Day by day, the rabbit's heart never Nothing has changed. The god was moved by the rabbit's infatuation, and decided to give the moon to the rabbit. The love is so touching, isn't it very touching?"

Luo Xian frowned: "What do you mean?" He couldn't comprehend the meaning of the story without beginning or end.

Su Yulian: "The god gave the moon to the rabbit. The moon is destined to belong to the rabbit, but the rabbit died of illness before it had tasted enough joy. Guess how it got sick?"

Luo Xian looked at Su Yulian's expectant eyes, feeling a little helpless, so he guessed seriously: "The wind is cold, because it's so cold at high places?"

Su Yulian burst out laughing, the laughter was clear and cheerful, "Master Hou can still tell bad jokes, after the rabbit gets the moon, he thinks, the moon is so beautiful, what if someone else snatches it from me; what if the god regrets taking it back?" ;What should I do if I can’t see the moon when it’s cloudy—the rabbit is always worried about losing the moon, so he died in depression.”

Luo Xian: "So - what do you want to express by telling this story, who is the rabbit, me?"

Su Yulian: "What does it have to do with you! I'm talking about the princess. Although the emperor has given you a marriage proposal, there may be changes at any time. She doesn't care on the surface, but she is still worried that you will not come back to marry her. So, I will Give her an idea, let her go with us, help you, and at the same time cultivate a relationship with you. She was enlightened at the time, and she was in a happy mood! In order to thank me, she took off the jewelry on her body and was about to give it to you Me, it's useless for me to ask for those, so let her go out and reward the servants."

Luo Xian: "Do you really think the princess can help?" Once nobles participate, it will inevitably attract attention. At that time, internal worries will not be resolved, and foreign troubles will be accompanied.

"I know what you are worried about. Even if there is no princess, most of the eyes are watching your movements. Since we have to face it, it is better to add the protective shield of the princess. Whether it is the power of the rivers and lakes or the jester in the court, the emperor protects you. The princess's soldiers and horses can at least stop half of the attacks." Su Yulian was full of confidence, and when he spoke the truth, he had a posture of giving up to me, no one could deny him in front of him, he just had that kind of convincing power.

Luo Xian opened his mouth, but did not refute him in the end.He said: "It seems that I should thank you very much."

Su Yulian: "Okay, then give me Xiao Jiu'er's contract of sale."

Luo Xian: "Xiao Jiuer was originally sent to you by me, so what's the use of that waste paper?"

Su Yulian: "You are her master after all, and I hope she is mine."

Luo Xian: "You are very special to her. She is neither beautiful nor smart, why do you always protect her and even want to monopolize her. If you like her, I can-"

Su Yulian interrupted him, his attitude was not too tough: "Just tell me whether to give it to me, don't guess my thoughts, can you figure out why I decided to help you find the weapon? If you can't figure it out, it's better not to guess."

"Okay, I'll give it to you. As long as you are still useful, I can consider agreeing to your request."

Su Yulian: "Thank you, I believe that if I don't make trouble, we can get along very happily."

"You know it yourself."
