In a blink of an eye, autumn has begun. After several rounds of repeated autumn tigers, the weather has completely cooled down.

?? Fearing that King Guang’an would catch the cold, Zhou Dawu ordered the servants to dismantle the waterwheel in front of the study early in the morning. There was a bang, a crisp sound, everyone was shocked, and the old man headed by him gave him a fierce look, pressed his fingers on his lips, and shhh, quietly stretched his neck to the study. Take a look inside.

?? Behind the looming veil, the nobleman who was wrapped in the thin felt did not move at all, and seemed to sleep peacefully.

?? The old man was relieved, and cursed the kid in a lip-like manner. The young man on the other side spit out his tongue, and quickly lifted the things on the ground gently, and the group of people quietly retreated outside.

After the voice faded, Li Yuanmin moved his eyelashes and slowly opened his eyes, took a deep breath, threw the thin felt on the handrail beside him, and sat up.

?? In fact, he has already woken up after the news. If the leader knows about it, he will inevitably go back and punish the child, so he simply continues to sleep in a fake sleep.

?? He hasn't slept well these few days. Today, he has no official duties, so he hides in the study lazily reading some idle books, and actually slept like this. He raised his eyes and looked at the omissions in the next hall, and he was sleepy enough. For an hour, my heart was at ease, and I stretched out softly at the moment, and a trace of black hair passed over the snow-colored face, like the first bloom of Begonia.

?? Today he wore a plain suit, because he did not go out, fortunately, even his hair was not tied, only let the serving maid simply tie it behind him with a belt.

?? He sat down, his neck was heavy, and a piece of shining jade pendant slipped out of his chest. He held it, placed it in his palm and whimpered for a moment, sighed, remembering that Wei Lie was already two after leaving the capital. It's been a month, but I don't know that I'm still used to the harshness of the border.

?? My heart was slightly sour, I couldn't help but drew out the red sandalwood box in the secret compartment under the book table, with a gentle expression, gently caressed it, and opened it.

?? Inside are a few letters, which are neatly folded and placed properly. Each piece of content is actually extremely simple, either saying greetings or saying that everything is well. However, since the last time Li Yuanmin complained, the word "missing you" was always mentioned at the end of the letter paper.

?? Li Yuanmin imagined him writing these two characters with a cold and solemn face, and his heart was both funny and melancholy.

?? He carefully folded the letterhead, carefully stacked it into the red sandalwood box, and sighed for no reason.

?? It's been five or six days, I should have received a letter, but there has been no news, although I know it is all the simple words, but every time I remove the mud, I can’t help but jump for joy. expect.

?? Just whirling about the colorful box, there was a noise outside, as if someone was coming here, Li Yuanmin quickly closed the hidden button of the box and put it into the hidden compartment.

?? Ni Ying walked in, dejected, her brows and eyes that were originally heroic were wrinkled into a ball by frustration.

?? Li Yuanmin calmly took out his hand from under the table, jokingly said: "Why, our female queen is so depressed today?"

?? Ni Ying angrily handed him the embroidered bandage.

?? Li Yuanmin took a look, suddenly dumb, with two things that looked like petals crookedly embroidered on it, the stitches on the silk surface were messy, and there were even broken threads floating on it.

??—This is still the result of six months of learning.

?? Li Yuanmin swallowed, and smiled reluctantly: "Aying is really amazing. It has only been half a year to embroider two flowers."

?? "This is a mandarin duck!"

?? Li Yuanmin's complexion tightened, looking at the two lumps, he couldn't help but compliment her embroidering well.

?? I only sighed secretly, put the bungee on the table, and comforted her softly: "Everything is difficult at the beginning. How can we be stupefied by a female celebrity like Aying, who is so clever? dish."

?? "His Royal Highness, brother, don't wear high hats to me all the time."

?? Ni Ying stretched out her finger, with a hint of complaint on her face, "I was born to lack this female red tendon. I really can't learn this needlework. Xiu Niang has said it. I have never seen me so clumsy. of!"

Considering Ni Ying's temperament, all the embroidered women Li Yuanmin invited to teach are well-known for their good temperament and patience. If even she couldn't help saying such angry words, she must have endured it to the limit.

?? Li Yuanmin looked at Ni Ying, who moved his fingertips, and sighed, knowing that he was embarrassing her.

?? Although Aying’s temperament is excruciating, as long as she tells her, she is reluctant to do it, but she still works hard, just like this student red, she is extremely reluctant, but through her painstaking instructions, Then I learned on the spot for half a year.

?? Xu really does not have the talent in this area, Li Yuanmin sighed, pulled her hand over, and took a closer look. The slender fingers with thin calluses had new and old wounds on his right hand. There was also a bright red needle-point opening on the tip of his index finger, which was obviously caused when he embroidered the "Mandarin Duck", and he felt a little regretful.

?? "Finally, no longer learn."

?? Ni Ying's eyebrows were still melancholy just now, and the sky cleared for a moment, and she grinned, "Really?"

?? "It's true," Li Yuanmin said helplessly, "I guess you won't be able to learn this female celebrity even if you give you a few more years."

?? "That's not it," Ni Ying has a strong temperament, but at this moment he quickly admits that he can't do well, "I'm born to have hatred with this needle and thread!"

?? Looking at the cheerful girl, Li Yuanmin couldn't help but worry, she was almost fourteen years old, and she was about to reach the age of a kiss.

?? He has long been screened among the unmarried high school children in Lingnan, but there are also a few good people, but although Ni Ying is the jewel of his Guang'an Palace, after all, his father is a criminal of the imperial court. Even the common people can’t compare with them. If the noble family marries the wife as the righteous wife, then the official career in this life is almost finished. So now, although the Guang’an Palace is becoming more and more powerful, no one from the family has come to propose marriage.

?? After all, everyone is willing to curry favor with the Guang'an Palace, but it is worth considering if you have a bright future.

?? He can naturally use power to coerce others to marry Ah Ying, but such a major matter as in-laws naturally requires you to please me, and he does not want Ni Ying to be aggrieved.

?? But if you lower the conditions and consider the Lingnan merchants, they are happy, but the Lingnan merchants are too strong, like a competition for financial resources, a lot of women in the backyard, Ruo Aying After such a temper, it will inevitably be restless all day long.

?? For a time, with all sorts of thoughts, just looking at the joyful girl, sadness in my heart.

?? While rubbing the temple, the people outside announced, "Your Highness, Master Xue from the Governor's Mansion is here to pay a visit."

?? Li Yuanmin frowned, did not say anything, Ni Ying had already looked dissatisfied, and muttered: "This Xue, is there nothing to do all day? He ran to our palace, this month, the third time. Right?"

?? Li Yuanmin said lightly: "Don't be rude."

?? He stood up, took Ni Ying out of the study, and was about to go around the chamber to change his clothes. Xue Zaixing had already walked out of the hall in plain clothes.

?? "His Royal Highness!"

?? Li Yuanmin stagnated, bowed her head and gave Ni Ying a few words, then let her go on her own, and walked towards Xue Zaixing, with a smile on her face: "Why don't the Governor-General know in advance, this unkempt person, let her go. Your lord made a joke."

?? Xue Zaixing smiled and said: "It's not official business. I just pass by and come up to visit me by the way. Your Royal Highness does not need to see outside."

?? While he was talking, Yu Guang looked at the person in front of him quietly. He had never seen him idle in private like this, but he saw that loose plain shirt tightly clinging to the wind from the steps. There is a slender figure printed on his body. He is not tied, his black hair is scattered on his shoulders, and the end of his hair is loosely tied with a cloth tape. That beautiful face is more gentle than usual. Fang, there are more unknowingly gorgeous colors.

?? His eyes moved, complaining as if true or false: "Is it possible that in addition to official duties, your Royal Highness is not allowed to go to the mansion for one or two times."

?? This is too much like a grieving woman. Li Yuanmin couldn't understand it by himself, and only slightly twitched the corner of his mouth: "What do you say, as long as the adult has Yaxing, the palace will be waiting at any time, and it is really impossible to catch guests."

?? The two laughed together. Li Yuanmin urged him into the hall. They sat on the main seat in the hall. After a while, a small servant came in with tea.

?? Xue Zaixing took a sip of tea, and stared at Li Yuanmin with a pair of sharp eyes: "That girl just now is the younger sister of the ginseng leader?"

?? "Exactly."

?? Xue Zaixing nodded thoughtfully, and put down the tea cup: "I take the liberty to ask, can the girl have a marriage?"

?? Li Yuanming was vigilant, but he was relaxed on the face: "It's still young, it's not in a hurry."

?? "I'm going to say that your Highness is not," Xue Zaixing accused half-truth: "Look at the stature of Miss Ni is about to fourteen, don't you say that the popular baby relatives in Lingnan are in Beijing. In China, there are many people who make arrangements for marriage at the age of eight."

?? "This matter, it should be sooner rather than later." He emphasized in a louder voice, meaningfully: "It is also blamed for the fact that there is no mistress in the mansion. His Royal Highness takes care of everything. It is inevitable that these marriages are negligent."

?? Li Yuanmin just smiled and said nothing.

?? Xue Zaixing's eyes turned a little closer, and he moved closer: "Xiaguan is a little bit ignorant of the heights of the sky and the earth is thick, maybe it is arrogant, but your highness is kind, and I must not blame it."

?? "Natural." Li Yuanmin smiled slightly, looked down and blew the heat in the tea cup, took a sip, and looked at him: "My lord, it doesn't matter."

?? "I don't know how your Highness feels about being an official?"

?? Li Yuanmin's fingers stiffened slightly, and soon put down the tea cup, "The governor-general has taken the position of governor of the two rivers and three provinces at a young age, and he is a dragon and a phoenix."

?? Xue Zaixing's lips twitched slightly, "Then, in your Highness's opinion, can officials enter Miss Ni's blue eyes?"

?? Li Yuanmin's mouth still smiled, and he said for a while: "My lord is laughing."

?? However, Xue Zaixing seems to have recommended himself: "My mother has passed away for a few years, and there is nothing else in the backyard except for the two-bedroom concubine. Besides, my military commander’s mansion does not have the same rules as the high gate compound... Your Highness thinks I'm too old?"

?? The year Xue Zaixing had just passed, his original partner passed away four years ago, and he heard that he was left with a ten-year-old eldest son, but what about that. He was the Xie Yuan in the first five years of Wushu, and he has a set of skills in leading soldiers. He has both civil and military skills. He is even blessed by Emperor Mingde. In just ten years, he has been promoted from a bachelor of the Imperial Academy to the powerful governor of the two rivers and three provinces. According to his identity and appearance, he was placed in Beijing and also the target of the princes and nobles to break the head of the marriage.

?? What's more, Li Shangshu, who was more than ancient in the capital, has continued to be a beautiful woman of nineteen years and noble birth, and Xue Zaixing's age is when men are full of spirits.

?? But how can Li Yuanmin believe that he really wants to marry Ni Ying.

?? He twitched the corners of his mouth: "It's nothing else, it's just that this girl in the mansion has always had no rules, how can she bear the responsibility of taking care of the backyard of the governor's mansion, this child, in the future, is only planning to find someone who makes it easy to send it away."

?? "Oh, that's the way it is, the next official is planning to take it personally as his highness."

?? He smiled, relaxed.

?? "This king treats her like a sibling, how can he have that kind of affection between men and women, the adults laughed."

?? The question of Ni Ying's marriage ends here. Xue Zaixing will not mention this matter anymore, only chatting with him about matters that are not important such as the customs of Lingnan.

?? Li Yuanmin passed a strange feeling in his heart. Xue Zaixing seemed to be arranging his words. Naturally, his purpose was not to marry A Ying. He wondered if his first-rank court official would really renew a daughter of a criminal courtier. It is impossible for A Ying to marry him,

?? This person is unconscious and treacherous. He regards Ah Ying as a sister, and hopes that his wings can protect her for life. If it falls in his hands, he is not sure to save it.

?? But now the other party's mind is obviously not on Ni Ying, it seems to be to confirm his feelings for Ni Ying.

?? Li Yuanmin clenched a fist secretly.

Near noon of the day, someone from the dining room came to inquire. Li Yuanmin hesitated for a while, looking at Xue Zaixing, who still had no intention of leaving, only politely:

?? "It's the meal time again soon, I wonder if the Governor left a meal?"

?? He asked casually, but Xue Zaixing showed a flattered expression: "So, over there is harassing Your Highness."

?? Li Yuan's sympathy was stagnant, so he could only stand up, and ordered his servants to add a few more dishes to the kitchen.

?? One after another, people with dining rooms came up to serve dishes. Because there are no outsiders, they are all the ones they eat on weekdays. They are all simple. Naturally, Xue Zaixing did not expect his diet to be so simple, with only a pile of sauced beef. Pan Su San Xian, a plate of assorted chicken shreds, a bowl of vegetarian stir-fried cabbage heart, plus a bowl of silky chicken soup, nothing more.

?? Xue Zaixing is a man of the ranks. He is not very particular about his diet. However, there must be five meats, three vegetarians and two cold dishes on the table every time. some.

?? Can't help sighing: "His Royal Highness is really frugal."

?? Li Yuanmin said slightly: "It's just a lack of appetite, and I don't know that these dishes are not in line with the appetite of adults."

?? "Xiaguan is not the one who is able to beat the bells and eat, and pamper him. Anyway, he has been on the battlefield for several years. Coarse grains with chaff are often eaten. This picture of our intestines is very easy to pass."

?? Because there are few people, Li Yuanmin usually eats at the small round table in Limu, waiting to sit down, only to find that Xue Zaixing opened the seats next to him and sat next to him.

?? Obviously something is not in compliance with the rules, but Xue Zaixing didn't notice it. He took his chopsticks and ate, while complimenting the house's dishes for seemingly simple but delicious.

?? Li Yuanmin's thoughts are heavy, and his appetite is not good, but the people around him seem to have an appetite, and he adds three bowls of rice in a row.

?? After finally drank a bowl of chicken soup, then looked at him,

?? "I didn't think that the most pleasant meal during this time was eaten at your Royal Highness's mansion."

?? Li Yuanmin smiled, and put down the dishes and chopsticks: "If you like it, it's fine."

People handed over the fragrant tea for gargle. Li Yuanmin vomited into the spittoon, and was rubbing the corners of his mouth with the handkerchief. He heard Xue Zaixing’s voice coming from Qier: "What incense your Royal Highness smokes, it’s very quiet. Elegant, the lower official has never smelled this kind of incense."

?? He leaned a little closer to him, keeping a distance that was not too ambiguous and could smell.

?? Li Yuanmin didn't use incense, it was all brought from the mother's womb.

?? He did not dodge, his expression did not move, he only stared at Xue Zaixing’s eyes, and said lightly: "This king has no research on incense. It is all handled by the subordinates. If the adults like it, this king will ask him and let the servants of the mansion next day. Send some over."

?? Xue Zaixing smiled and stepped back.

?? At this time, there was a rush of footsteps outside, and a small servant came in.

?? "His Royal Highness, I have a letter from the sir."

?? Li Yuanmin's heart jumped heavily, wishing to quickly step forward to **** the letter paper from his hand, but at the moment he held it back, only waved his hand.

?? "Send to the study."

?? Xue Zaixing captured the dramatic mood swings at that moment.

?? He was just faint, even if he deliberately tried, he still retains his usual detachment and self-sustainability, but a single letter can stir the ripples on this calm lake.

?? Is it not easy or is it...people?

?? Xue Zaixing's eyes narrowed slightly.

?? The author has something to say: Maybe there is another chapter tonight, depending on the situation.
