Bold, how dare you break Ben Hou

Gu Jixiu laughed suddenly, causing Qing Zhi's eyes to drop.

In his impression, Gu Jixiu often laughed, but he always snorted with a half-hearted smile, and every time he smiled, there was a hint of sarcasm.

But now, the corners of his mouth curled up, without a trace of coldness, as if two friends were chatting, and when they talked about something happy, the corners of his lips curled into a nice curve.

Qingzhi was naturally dumbfounded.

Obviously, his blank stare made Gu Jixiu feel happier, put down the silver chopsticks in his hands, and explained to him for the first time: "Sometimes you seem to understand everything, but sometimes it is easy to miss small details. You know What is the reason for the selection of the children of the aristocratic family this year? This is the first time, and it is the selection that I have done. The imperial examination has passed, so why should I do the selection again? It is for this purpose.” There was a cunning flash in his eyes, “That’s right. For this plan, the Empress Dowager and I have been planning for so long. I know that if I take over the family and bring out others, the government and businessmen will be seriously injured for a while, so more capable people are needed to fill these gaps. The grandfather has already been selected in Chang'an City. Several disciples, they are not sons of the business world, nor are they descendants of famous families, but their talents are no less than some veteran officials in the court. Therefore, we must take advantage of this opportunity to let some famous families in the court recruit more disciples, and finally let these disciples participate Selection."

Qingzhi nodded, but under that system, only generals had the best chance of being on Enke, and they won in one fell swoop.And many poor students, like Fang Lansheng, would be ruthlessly dismissed.

"The imperial court needs these people and fresh blood." Gu Jixiu let out a long breath, and looked at Fang Lansheng as if expressing something: "Although the official part is damaged, I believe that they will soon be able to take over. , to see this country more stably for me."

What he said was so heart-wrenching that even Qingzhi's heart was shaken, Fangfo saw the arrogance of this king looking down on the world.

"As for Shang, I was most worried about it at first, but now, I'm not in a hurry..." He smiled more intensely, "Do you still remember how Zhao Renchang said that Xu Yi was taken down by him? ?”

Qingzhi thought about it carefully, and then said: "Didn't he say that Xu Yi received money from Xiao's family, and planned to transfer the annual tribute list to him...the family will do it..." After the words, it became clear, In a blink of an eye, he met Gu Jixiu's eyes, looked at each other and smiled: "So that's what happened!"

"That's right, that's what happened." Gu Jixiu took off the bone fan from his waist, and slapped it on the table one after another: "Xiao Lue looks like he's used to being idle, and he won't accept it easily. But he As Xu Yi's entrance, Xu Yi has a way to persuade him."

"I heard that Mr. Ping Yuan is in the Xiao family. Although he is not the main wife, no one in the Xiao family can compare in terms of reputation and wealth, and he has long been regarded as the head of the family. It's just that he has always been idle, and he never cared about family affairs. A few days ago, it was because Mr. Xu intended to hand over the seat of the Huizhou General Merchant to the Xiao family, which caused the Xiao family to be besieged by Zhao Renchang, Liu Dafu and others, and their vitality was greatly damaged. Mr. Pingyuan would not refuse the title even if he wanted to come." Fang Lansheng added another sentence.

As everyone said, Gu Jixiu's mood became better and better, so he asked his servants to come in with wine, and asked Fang Lansheng and Fu Yanxin to sit down together and have fun with you.

It's just that Qingzhi learned the lesson from last time, and was always worried about Fu Yanxin. He looked at him with his eyes, and when he saw that he was about to put the wine glass into the mouth, he bent his elbow and "accidentally" spilled the liquid in his glass.

Going back and forth a few times, even Gu Jixiu could see something was wrong, and was about to ask a question, but was distracted by Qingzhi's sloppy eyes.Fortunately, Gu Jixiu was in a good mood, so he didn't think too much, Qingzhi exhaled, licked his lips, picked up the wine glass and was about to put it in his mouth - this daughter of Huizhou Mansion is very fragrant, very pure !If there is a woman, that is even better!

Just when the blueness was floating, I heard Fang Lansheng on the side whispering: "Why did Lord Hou fall asleep in the rockery last night?"

Oh your grandma is a chicken thigh!

Today, Qingzhi has been avoiding this topic, and by chance, Zhao Renchang came to join him, as if to make himself forget about it, did not expect Fang Lansheng, this little boy, to bring it up again? !

Did he mean it?

Qingzhi shot a knife with his eyes, and found that Fang Lansheng was still smiling calmly, but his expression was obvious--I did it on purpose!

These words aroused Gu Jixiu's memory, and he also had an expression of waiting for answers: "What happened this morning?"

Qingzhi took a peek at Fu Yanxin, saw that his fair face was slightly flushed, coughed, straightened his face and said, "It's nothing - I couldn't sleep last night, so I wanted to go to the rockery to count the stars, but I didn't expect to count the stars." After counting, I fell asleep—hahahaha—”

The atmosphere turned cold, and even Fu Yanxin was expressionless.

Qingzhi was afraid of saying too much and making mistakes, so he lowered his head while grabbing the bowl and chopsticks, and ate seriously.

Finally, Gu Jixiu was satisfied and the show ended, and everyone went back to their rooms one by one.Fang Lansheng and Qingzhi lived in the West Wing, and they walked west at the same time, without saying a word all the way.

Qingzhi understood Fang Lansheng's temperament to some extent, and finally couldn't hold it back anymore, so he opened his mouth and said, "Master Fang, we are smart people who don't speak in secret, last night you...you..." said "you" several times, but nothing It is impossible to complete what follows.

"You don't have to worry, Lord Hou. Lan Sheng didn't see anything. It was only after Liufu came to ask if Master Hou was in Lan Sheng's room in the middle of the night that Lan Sheng knew that Master Hou and Fu Du had gone out together and never returned to the room. I was a little worried, but I didn't dare to disturb the emperor, so I put on my clothes and tried to find Lord Hou."

"Then you?——" Qingzhi was naturally shocked, the hotel was only this small, and Fang Lansheng was not blind, so how could he not find them?Besides, what do you mean by "Lan Sheng didn't see anything"?I didn't see anything, so why didn't he put any sugar in the sour plum soup he prepared this morning?

Qingzhi pulled Fang Lansheng's shoulders. Although his stature was only a little taller than Fang Lansheng's, his eyesight was also somewhat higher.Seriously said: "Lan Sheng, don't get me wrong... last night..."

When he was hesitating about what to say to explain, he heard Fang Lan laugh out loudly: "If Master Hou doesn't let go, people will see it, and I may not know what to say."

Qing Yi was startled, hurriedly put down his hands, and said embarrassingly: "Actually, I—"

"Actually, Lan Sheng really didn't see anything. He just happened to see such a scene when he found Lord Hou and Fu Dutong under the tree—"

Before Qingzhi could react, he smelled the fragrance of orchids, and Fang Lansheng's magnified face was all in front of his eyes.

His eyes were closed so tightly that he could see the shadows under the brush of his eyelashes.

The distance between the two is less than one millimeter, if someone's figure moves slightly, their lips can touch together.
