"The ice wheel on the island is turning, see the jade rabbit, see the jade rabbit rising east again." Cao Shuhua stood by the window and sang, looking out of the window, but he seemed not paying attention, he seemed a little out of breath, and he couldn't bring himself to sing. trembling.

"My lord." Yaoju knocked on the door and walked in.

"What's the matter?" Cao Shuhua stopped singing and stood by the window, without turning his back to Yaoju and asked.

"It's already been taken." Yaoju said and handed the things he took to Cao Shuhua. "I'm afraid you must be in a hurry. This singing is trembling." Yaoju looked at Cao Shuhua and smiled.

"Cough. It's just that I haven't practiced for a long time, so I'm a little rusty." Cao Shuhua coughed in embarrassment to cover it up, turned around to pick up the things, opened the wrapped letter and read it carefully.

Cao Shuhua breathed a sigh of relief until he read every letter carefully, "Go and compare the handwriting of these letters to ensure the authenticity."

"Yes." Yaoju agreed before taking the letter from Cao Shuhua's hand.

In the palace of Prince Jin.

"My son, my son, the letter has arrived." Jing Xinmo came in from outside the house with a pigeon in his arms, and said softly.

Li Cunxu was dressed in linen filial piety, and he knelt before the low table, not in a hurry to read the letter, but said: "Wait a little longer."

After a while, another pigeon flew in and landed on the table next to Li Cunxu, and Li Cunxu asked Jing Xinmo to bring the bamboo tube.

"Cao Lang is really strange. Why did you release two of these pigeons?" Jing Xinmo said as he untied the bamboo tube from the pigeon's leg, and handed the bamboo tube to Li Cunxu.

"The purpose of the two pigeons is to prevent someone from intercepting the carrier pigeon. If only one carrier pigeon arrives, or the time difference between the arrival of the two carrier pigeons is too long, the letter may have already been intercepted, and it is not safe. "Li Cunxu opened the bamboo tube and took out a note from it, and saw that it said we will meet at the Jin Palace at Haishi.

"That's how it is. It's rare for me to see it." Jing Xinmo held the pigeon and saw that the pigeon was standing on the low table and was just about to take it away. The pigeon flapped its wings to avoid it and landed on Li Cunxu's shoulder. "Your Majesty?" Jing Xinmo asked with some embarrassment.

"It's nothing." Li Cunxu threw the note into the fire, reached out and hugged the pigeon from his shoulders, and the pigeon didn't recognize its life, and rubbed against Li Cunxu with its fluffy body. "It's interesting."

"Your Highness, what about this pigeon?" Jing Xinmo asked while hugging the pigeon.

"Let's raise it first, it might be useful in the future." Li Cunxu poked the black hair on the side of the pigeon's head before handing the pigeon to Jing Xinmo. "This pigeon looks interesting."

"Okay, I'll prepare a nest for these two little ancestors." Jing Xinmo hugged the two pigeons, fearing that one of them would fly away. The pigeon with the black spot on the side of its head was dishonest and kept on thumping there.

At the time of Haishi, outside the back door of King Jin's Mansion, a person knocked on the door.Jing Xinmo opened the door a little, "Cao Lang?"

Cao Shuhua pushed aside the gauze on the bamboo hat, "It's me."

"Quick, come in quickly." Jing Xinmo hastily opened the door to let Cao Shuhua in. "His Royal Highness is worried about others, so he specially asked me to stay here. It's pity that I waited here for a long time at night. Why did Cao Lang come alone?" Already?" Jing Xinmo said, holding a lamp in his hand and leading the way.

"You said it's so late, of course I let Yaoju stay in Cao's mansion." Cao Shuhua followed behind and replied.

"Then Cao Lang is much more considerate than His Royal Highness." Jing Xinmo said.

"You're not afraid of me talking to him if you make up your Highness like this here?" Cao Shuhua thought it was a little funny and joked.

"The two of you are talking about important matters, so how can you have time to sue me?" Before they knew it, the two of them had already walked outside Li Cunxu's bedroom. Jing Xinmo helped Cao Shuhua open the door, and let him in sideways.He himself stood outside the house with a lamp.

"You're here." Li Cunxu sat kneeling in front of a low table with two glasses of water on it. "You're thirsty. I know you don't like the clear water specially prepared for you for tea." Li Cunxu picked up a glass of clear water and handed it to Cao Shuhua.

Cao Shuhua took a sip from the cup to quench his thirst, then he also knelt down by the low table and put the things he brought on the low table, "These are the people I know so far who participated, and these are the letters they exchanged. After comparing the notes." Cao Shuhua said and spread out the letter.

Li Cunxu took the open letter and read it carefully: "Although I can't recognize all the handwriting of these people, I still know the handwriting of Uncle. I thought that taking a step back could calm things down, but I didn't want Uncle, he actually wanted to Drive me to death." Li Cunxu looked at the letter with a very bad expression, and swiped his finger on the letter with such force that it crumpled the letter paper.

Cao Shuhua watched and didn't know how to comfort him, so he had no choice but to bring this topic aside for now: "Fortunately, we already know his intentions, so we can take corresponding precautions."

"How did you get these? People who don't belong to him probably won't be able to get these letters." Li Cunxu asked while looking at the letters.

"Shi Jingrong pretended to help Li Kening, but his real heart was toward His Highness." Li Cunxu looked at Cao Shuhua and was silent for a moment: "This matter needs further investigation, you should be more cautious."

Li Cunxu looked at Cao Shuhua and was silent for a moment: "This matter needs further investigation, you should be more cautious."

Seeing this, Cao Shuhua didn't make much excuses: "I have already brought these, and I can bring this, so I can guarantee the authenticity of these things."

"I mean you should be careful, don't let the bad guys catch the loopholes, I'm afraid that if you are so obviously on my side, someone will be against you, it's not doubting the authenticity of this thing." Li Cunxu said with a sigh.

"Don't worry, they will care about me as a little person, and no matter whether I do these things or not, they will draw me to your side if I am close to you."

Li Cunxu went to collect the letter and said: "I will discuss it with Zhang Chengye at this time."

"Then? What else do I need to do?" Seeing that he was interested, Cao Shuhua asked quickly.I just need to keep in touch with Shi Jingrong. Naturally, I still have spare energy and want to do more things.

"Go ahead with what you are doing now." Li Cunxu said after thinking for a while, how could Li Cunxu not know Cao Shuhua's thoughts, but Cao Shuhua has just entered the officialdom, although he has many skills, but he is still not ready to deal with those old foxes . "I'll talk to you after Zhang Chengye and I have made plans."

Although Cao Shuhua wanted to know why he didn't allocate more things to himself, but since Li Cunxu had already made such a decision, he had no choice but to do so.

"Then I'll go back." Cao Shuhua got up, put on his bamboo hat, and planned to leave.

"The curfew is already in place. It may be inconvenient for you to go back to the Cao Mansion now. If others find out that you have been to the Prince Jin's Mansion at night, it will be unavoidable." Li Cunxu also got up and grabbed Cao Shuhua's sleeve.

"I won't go back today. Do I go directly to court tomorrow? I'm wearing casual clothes." Cao Shuhua looked at Li Cunxu and said helplessly.

"I have official uniforms here." Li Cunxu said with a tricky smile (no).

"Okay. Then I'll spend the night at Jinwang Mansion. Is there any room available?" Li Cunxu had already said so, and Cao Shuhua couldn't evade any more, so he took off his bamboo hat and said.

"It's so late that it's too late to clean up the guest room, so you can just make do with my room." Li Cunxu took the bamboo hat in Cao Shuhua's hand and hung it aside, pushing him to go in.

"This, this is inappropriate." Cao Shuhua repeatedly evaded it.

"It's all right, I'll ask Jing Xinmo to add another quilt to the head office."

In the end, Cao Shuhua was not able to turn Li Cunxu away, and the two of them took a rest after washing.

In the end, Cao Shuhua still slept in the small bed next to Li Cunxu's bed, which was originally used by servants to sleep at night.Because Cao Shuhua insisted not to sleep with Li Cunxu, he changed the bed for one night.

The candles were extinguished, the night was very quiet, and my thoughts went in some strange directions.Cao Shuhua was about to close his eyes and force himself to fall asleep quickly, when he heard the sound of Li Cunxu turning over, "We used to fight when we were young, and you never said it was wrong to sleep in the same bed."

"At that time, I was too young to be sensible." Cao Shuhua replied as he tightened the quilt.

"Since you have already refused, I naturally won't force it anymore. I have a clear conscience, but you seem to have a ghost in your heart. There is nothing wrong with friends sleeping on the same bed."

"It's not that you said those things first, you clearly know that we are impossible, you are clearly teasing me." Cao Shuhua was furious at what he said, sat up and said.Obviously he said the disturbing words first, but now he said it as if he was innocent.After saying these words, Cao Shuhua was scared again, and planned to lie back and be a turtle.

Li Cunxu was also a little stunned by Cao Shuhua's sudden outburst, so why did he feel that his hair was not so straightforward, it seemed that he was angry not because of his confession to him before, but because he thought he was teasing him. After holding back his mouth for a long time, he finally said dryly, "I'm not teasing you."

Cao Shuhua didn't speak after hearing this, he just pretended to be an ostrich under the quilt, he didn't know which scripture he put up wrong just now to say that, now he just wants to waste time and slip away.

Li Cunxu pulled back the quilt and walked to Cao Shuhua's bedside, and dug someone who was pretending to be an ostrich out of the quilt: "Let's just take it off at this time, shall we?"

"En." Cao Shuhua replied sullenly, seeing Li Cunxu walking on the ground barefoot, he unconsciously pulled him onto the bed, "It's the cold winter, why are you standing barefoot on the ground, what should you do if you catch a cold?"

Seeing Cao Shuhua's subconscious movements, Li Cunxu smiled and squeezed into Cao Shuhua's quilt: "It's okay, I'm in good health and warmer than you."

Seeing this, Cao Shuhua couldn't ask him to go back, so he had to admit it.

"Don't think that I don't believe you. I don't want you to get involved too much now because I haven't made up my mind yet. When everything is planned, I will tell you. You must help me when the time comes. "Li Cunxu knew that Cao Shuhua was the type who didn't want to say anything, so he said.

"Hmm." Cao Shuhua replied with his back turned to him, and he pretended to hear it.
