The Maid's Strategy in the Red Chamber

Wang Ba looks at mung beans

At the same time, in a certain hot spring village in the suburbs of Beijing, Ji Cheng said to the fourth prince in front of him: "You contributed to the matter of the Imperial College this time, but I took care of the good reputation. It's not a temperament that loves to suffer, what's going on this time?"

The fourth prince Ji Xian smiled evilly with his long phoenix eyes: "What else can I do? Now even the emperor dare not blatantly win over his subjects, let alone me, a little prince who has never been noticed. If I catch up I'm afraid that those in Taikang Palace won't be able to tolerate me if I want to make friends with these students. Sigh, it's really aggrieved to be a prince in my position."

Ji Cheng smiled slightly: "I don't think you are the most aggrieved."

Hearing this, Ji Xian laughed: "It's true, my good father probably never thought that he earned this position through untold hardships, and was still controlled by others in the end. Now he is not sure why he is depressed."

Ji Cheng said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, that person's temperament is definitely not easy to get along with, and the current dormancy is only temporary. Once the emperor in the future... When that person really takes power, naturally you will come forward .”

Ji Xian smiled dissolutely: "There's no rush, the rafters in the early years will be rotten first, so let the second and third fight to go. I'll be the Prince of Taiping for a few years first. By the way, don't just talk about me, your mansion Here is also a big mess. In addition to the two brothers born to your father and concubine, you also have four or five brothers born to concubines, and these people are enough for you to eat a pot."

Thinking of the troubles caused by his flirtatious father, Ji Cheng rubbed his brows with some headaches: "It's useless to say more now, the palace is still there."

If it's not in my hands, I can only be like you for the time being, let's bear it. "

Ji Xian patted him on the shoulder: "I think you have more hope than my father. After all, Prince Rui's body looks far worse than the Taihuang. Maybe he can still walk ahead of the Taihuang. When the time comes You have inherited the title of the palace, and I, as a nephew, need you to take care of me." Although the two are about the same age, Ji Cheng is actually a generation older than Ji Xian, and his father is the youngest brother of the Taihuang. Today's holy majesty is still two years younger.It's just that when I was young, I was too indulgent, but now I look at my body and bones are not very refreshing.

Thinking of his incomprehensible father, Ji Cheng sighed: "The scourge has lasted for thousands of years, how could he die so easily." He complained, but he was still a little worried about the old man's health.

Lin Ruhai was not clear about the festivities between Lin Ming and Prince Zhongshun's residence. Lin Ming didn't mention it in his previous letter. He only said that he accidentally injured his head and was unable to participate in this year's autumn festival. Woolen cloth.It's useless to talk about it from a thousand miles away, so why bother people to worry about it?Therefore, in this letter, Lin Ruhai had no choice but to exhort him, and everything else was just gossip.

Lin Ming finished reading the letter and was about to pick up his pen to reply when he saw that the ink in the inkstone had dried up.

Now Xueyan is still waiting for him to write a reply, watch him pick up the pen, and look at the dried ink stains in the inkstone.He hurriedly rolled up his sleeves and said, "Let me do it." She also grinds every day in Jia's mansion, so she is very skillful and quick in doing it.

Looking at the half of her white wrist exposed by the rolled up cuffs, a small agate ring was worn on her slender finger, which made her white and tender, with an indescribable charm.Lin Ming only felt a surge of enthusiasm in his chest: No wonder the ancients liked "red sleeves add fragrance", it really feels good!

After Lin Ming finished writing the reply letter, dried it, sealed it, and put it back in the pencil case Xue Yan brought.Xueyan held the pen case and said with a smile: "This errand is finally half done. My girl asked me to ask the uncle if there are any new and interesting books in the shop. Let me take two back."

Lin Ming smiled and said, "Big sister is really fast at reading, have you read all the ones you took last time?"

Xueyan nodded: "I've finished reading it a long time ago. If I didn't have to go to school every day to ask An to do needlework, the girl could finish reading those books in three to five days. My girl loves reading books most. When she came to Jia's house, she only brought two books. A box of old books, bought in the past few years, has filled the Bogu shelf. The old lady over there often jokes that these books can be opened to open a bookstore to compete with you for business."

The way she talked and laughed at Yan Yan like this was extremely cute and charming in Lin Ming's eyes. Now Lin Ming would just stare at her without saying a word.

Xueyan's face turned red from his presumptuous and aggressive eyes, and she murmured in her heart: This man looked at the gentleman, his eyes are really domineering, could it be that this is the legendary gentle scum?

Seeing her fall silent, Lin Ming frowned: "Why didn't you say anything?" Then, he moved his face to Xue Yan: "Your talking and smiling like this is the most touching."

He was actually teased!

But looking at the other party's Qingjun face, Xueyan thought, this appearance is not low in future generations, well, for the sake of your appearance, this girl will not be angry with you.She pouted and said, "I thought you, an uncle, didn't like to hear short stories from these parents."

Lin Ming smiled at the corner of his mouth: "Others may find it annoying if they say it, but what you say just sounds nice."

Oh my god, why haven't I seen him for a month or two? Not only has this guy thickened his skin, but his skills in teasing girls have also improved. Could it be that he got someone to try it out, or read too many scripts?

She pouted and turned around: "Master, I'd better read less of those romance scripts, they're not spoiled, these words shouldn't be said to me, a slave."

Seeing that she was a little annoyed, Lin Ming hurriedly grabbed her hand and said, "Whether you believe it or not, I just want to tell you these words. Don't tell me I'm the kind of volatile person in your eyes?"

Xueyan lowered her head and bit her lip: "Of course you are not." If you are a scumbag, wouldn't it mean that my eyesight is bad...

Lin Ming turned her shoulders around: "Then what are you thinking about?" Seeing her bowing her head and saying nothing, Lin Ming instantly guessed her thoughts: "Could it be that you think I will despise your background? I myself am just a powerless person. Powerless poor boy, I was afraid that you would dislike my poor family background. You have also seen that although our family is not really invincible, it is such a family background every day. Do you think that my family does not have carved beams, painted buildings, beautiful clothes and delicious food? ?”

Oops, I just talked about this issue in a hurry.Xueyan suddenly felt a little ashamed, but she still blushed and shook her head: "Of course not."

"Then it's over. We two bastards look at mung beans. Don't dislike each other. We can only be considerate of each other." Lin Ming said in a deep voice.

Xueyan finally realized what it means to be disturbed. The originally very charming and lingering romantic atmosphere was abruptly turned into a comedy by his words.She beat Lin Ming angrily, "You are the bastard!"
