Willing to be hired by Jiangshan

make a mistake and be punished

After returning home, Yan Xi felt that the atmosphere was not right.Xiao Jiu ran away when she saw him, Li Youfang shook her head again and again, wanting to talk... What's wrong?He blocked Xiao Jiu's way, and said with a sinister smile, "What are you doing hiding from me?"

"No, no...Second Young Master, you...you can do it yourself." Xiao Jiu hesitated, and while he was in a daze, he disappeared without a trace.

"..." Seeing Lin Rongchen's face as black as coal, Yan Xi understood the meaning of "doing it for himself".But he couldn't remember when he met Lin Rongchen in the past few days, let alone offended him. "Who made the prince unhappy? How courageous!"

"Yes, how courageous!" Lin Rongchen seemed to be waiting for him specially, but he didn't care when he saw him, he only glanced at him, and his tone was as if meeting him for the first time. "What do you think?"

"This... How would I know? Hahaha..." Yan Xi smiled forcedly.

"Although the teacher has left, this king is still here." Lin Rongchen did not say clearly, thinking of reminding him tactfully, hoping that he can change his past.After all, he is Li Xingzhi's righteous grandson, so it's not easy to do too much. "Second Master Yan, should you restrain yourself? You must insult your teacher's reputation!"

"My lord, you can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk indiscriminately. Although I, Yan Xi, don't like reading, I have always behaved well and sat well. How can I insult my grandfather's reputation?"

Lin Rongchen raised his eyes and spit out a few words: "Spring, wind, ten, li."

"..." Dare to let him know what happened in Spring Breeze Ten Miles today, so he misunderstood that he went looking for flowers and asking willows? "Things are not what you think. The reason why I entered Spring Breeze Ten Miles is because Qin Haoyue won't let me go..."

"If you don't let you go, you won't go? When did you become so obedient?" Yan Xi's explanation made him angry, "If my king remembers correctly, I never allowed you to go out! Why don't you go as usual? Ten Miles of Spring Breeze? I think you forgot what I told you last time! Come here!"

"My lord, I'm afraid this is not good..." Yan Xi's face fell, this person might really break his leg.

Two people came in from the left and the right outside the door, one was holding a long bench, the other was holding a wooden stick, looking fierce.Yan Xi flinched and hid behind Li Youfang, "Uncle Li, help me!" Li Butler was about to open his mouth, but when he saw Lin Rongchen's sharp eyes, the words that came to his mouth turned into a few light coughs.Yan Xi shook his arm, almost crying, "Uncle Li, you can't leave me alone!"

Li Youfang sighed, "My lord, I just ask you to be gentle and don't hurt your muscles."

Yan Xi: "..."

The two men acted swiftly and tied Yan Xi to the bench in threes and fives, making him unable to move.Yan Xi looked up and only saw Lin Rongchen's clothes, "My lord, you really misunderstood. I didn't do anything in Spring Breeze, you can ask if you don't believe me."

Lin Rongchen snorted coldly, "What did you say, it's not as simple as being tied up and beaten."

"You!" Yan Xi was angry. "You simply only allow the state officials to set fires, but not the common people to light lamps! How can you go shopping in kilns..."

"Hit!" It's good that he didn't speak, this yelling completely ignited the fire.

The servants in the house hid under the eaves and watched from afar, whispering.Yan Xi wanted to die in despair. I'm afraid it won't be until tomorrow. Everyone in Suzhou will know that the second son of the Li family was spanked by the prince for visiting a brothel.The last birthday banquet was already very embarrassing, so will he still lose face?

The strength of the board was not heavy, but it wasn't light either. Yan Xi screamed in pain, begging for mercy, and promised never to do it again, so Lin Rongchen yelled to stop. "If you don't copy the Tao Te Ching three times today, you are not allowed to step out of the room!"

"Yes." Yan Xi gritted his teeth and nodded, limping back while rubbing his feverish buttocks.

"where to!"

"Go back to your room and copy the Tao Te Ching!"

"..."

At night Yan Xi was lying on the floor in the study room, screaming and yelling all the time, making Lin Rongchen's head buzzing. "My lord, Yan Xi can't serve you anymore, it's hard work for you to make your own bed, change your clothes, and..."

"Shut up!" Lin Rongchen rubbed the center of his brows, paced back and forth in the room, "Go back to your room and sleep!" Was this intentional to annoy him?

"I'm afraid I can't... my butt is bleeding, and it hurts even if I take a step." Yan Xi thought to myself that I'm having a hard time, and you shouldn't be having a hard time either.Anyway, it's already like this, so let's go all out.

Lin Rongchen called someone over, pointed at the study room, and said in distaste: "Drag the people inside out!"

Yan Xi: "..."

Before the servant got close to Yan Xi, he began to cry loudly, "I want to tell my grandfather, the prince not only beat me, but also let me be thrown out! Didn't you tell my grandfather that you would take care of me? It's raining outside. If the wound sees water and becomes infected, how can you explain to your grandfather?"

Lin Rongchen: "..."

The servant looked troubled.If they treat their master like this, they may lose their jobs.

"Forget it." Lin Rongchen pushed him back with a dark face, annoyed and annoyed, there was nothing he could do about him, "Where did you learn the tricks of a rogue like you!" Those who didn't know thought that he would kill him. What's wrong!

"As a prince, you have misbehaved and come to discipline others! I don't accept it! I don't accept it! I don't accept it!" Yan Xi beat the ground with both hands, and slapped the wooden board with a "dong dong".

Lin Rongchen was so angry that he pulled open the partition of the study, and before he could speak, he heard a "bang", and the partition broke... Half of the wooden frame fell down, hitting Lin Rongchen head and face.

Lin Rongchen: "..."

Yan Xi was startled, seeing the sawdust and shredded paper covered on his head, and burst out laughing, "Hahahaha..."

Lin Rongchen: "..."

"My lord... It seems that God thinks you are wrong... Hahaha..." It was really satisfying.

Lin Rongchen became angry from embarrassment, and the thought of killing someone to silence him flashed through his mind.He was stunned, but for such a trivial matter, he was... moved to kill.Then he took a long breath, let it out slowly, and tried his best to restrain himself, "If you don't go, I will go."

Even though there was such a quarrel, Yan Xi just wanted to vent his anger. Whoever made Lin Rongchen wrong him, he didn't take the initiative to go there.Afterwards, he became more honest. At least until he recovered from his injury, he obediently read and practiced calligraphy every day. Lin Rongchen felt that this method seemed very feasible.But after recovering from the injury, Yan Xi usually followed him out as soon as he went out with his front foot.The intermittent sound of the flute outside the wall just now was the signal given to him by Xie Songlin—Shui Mo Xuan is in trouble.

Yan Xi struggled for a long time, and finally put down his pen, brother can't just stand by in trouble.He jumped over the wall with ease and went straight to Shui Moxuan.

Seeing him, Xie Songlin felt as if he had been pardoned, "Yun Xin, you're here!"

"What happened?" Yan Xi looked into the ink painting pavilion, and saw a thick and round figure arguing with Xie Chongyuan, "Who is that person?"

"The servants of Ji Zhifu's brother-in-law's family are all to blame for this matter." Xie Songlin sighed again and again, "A few days ago he sent someone to order a painting in the store, but my father was sick and bedridden these few days. There are so many things, I will forget about it." Xie Songlin rubbed his hands, "Today he came to pick up the painting... He said that if he couldn't get the painting, he would go to the government to sue us. Although this is not a big deal, the Yamen is His house opened, when the time comes..."

That's all?Yan Xi patted his heart with the back of his hand, "With me here, what are you afraid of? Isn't today over yet? You tell him that the painting will be delivered to the mansion in two hours. If there is any delay, ten times the compensation will be paid." his deposit."

In the past few days, Liang Yanwen was temporarily transferred from Gusu due to official duties, leaving only Yan Xi and Lin Rongchen in the Li residence.It was rare for Lin Rongchen to return home for dinner at night, but he didn't see Yan Xi, "Didn't you invite Second Young Master to dinner?"

Li Youfang said: "Reporting to the lord, the young master said that he is not hungry, he is copying the Tao Te Ching, and told me not to disturb him."

This is rare.Lin Rongchen nodded, and asked again: "What does your young master do for leisure?"

"This..." Li Youfang was a little embarrassed, it can't be said that Yan Xi usually likes to drink and listen to music, throwing pots and fighting birds, right?But the prince asked, and he had to say nothing.Thinking of seeing Xie Songlin at the market yesterday, he blurted out, "There is an ink and wash shop in the east of the city, which only sells the four treasures of the study and antique calligraphy and paintings. The second son likes to go there the most!"

"Arty?"

"Eh... that's not true, the Second Young Master was a buddy of Shui Moxuan before he entered Li's residence."

Lin Rongchen understood, "No wonder."

Li Youfang felt that since the words have come to this point, she should explain to Lin Rongchen about the painting last time, "The second son is simple-minded, and he always says what comes to mind. In addition, the relationship between the prince and my master is deep and approachable, so I put the prince As my own family... I didn't intend to offend the prince. I hope the prince will see it for my master's sake, my lord has a lot..."

Lin Rongchen smiled and said: "If this king cares about him, do you think he can still sit in the room and copy books at this moment? Since I have promised my teacher, I will naturally take care of him."

After dinner, Lin Rongchen thought that he had nothing to do today, so he went to the Shui Mo Xuan for a stroll, never expecting to meet Hu Qingqing and her maid in the Shui Mo Xuan.

Hu Qingqing was surprised to meet Lin Rongchen by chance.The shyness after the surprise is afraid that even a fool can see the meaning.

"Girl, please." Lin Rongchen made a gesture of invitation, making way for Hu Qingqing, "It's so late, a woman should be extra careful when going out!"

"Miss was painting at home just now, and the wolf hair was broken. I heard that the Four Treasures of the Study in Shui Mo Xuan are very famous, so I came to take a look." The servant girl explained.

"Don't talk too much!" Hu Qingqing shouted coquettishly, glanced at Lin Rongchen secretly, and saw that he was looking at her with burning eyes, his whole face was on fire, and hurriedly lowered his head again, twisting his hands continuously. On one side of Supa, the palms of his hands gradually became sweaty.

"It turns out that the girl is also good at painting, I admire you! I wonder if you are lucky enough to see a masterpiece?" Lin Rongchen smiled gently and said politely.

This smile made Hu Qingqing's face even redder, and her heart beat like a drum, "Master, you are joking. The little girl doodles casually to pass the time. Don't dare to dirty your eyes."

Lin Rongchen didn't force it, and said: "Miss, can you see if there is a wolf hair in the picture?"

Hu Qingqing nodded shyly, carefully selected the hair, and asked Lin Rongchen for his opinion from time to time.After searching for a long time, I couldn't find the right one.

Lin Rongchen was very considerate, "Why don't I accompany the girl to another house to see?"

"Huh?" Hu Qingqing turned her head and saw a pen case carved with camphor wood in the corner of the cabinet a foot away from her.The pen box was placed a bit to the side, but she didn't notice it after looking at it for a long time. "That..." Hu Qingqing pointed at the wooden box with her white fingers.

Lin Rongchen understood, and as soon as he reached out his hand to the wooden box, one person stepped in and took it first.
