No, gentlemen also guard against

Chapter 196

In the afternoon, the small Merlin courtyard was very quiet.

The pot of snow-white orchids on the windowsill stopped swaying as the wind stopped at noon.

Ye Weilai really likes to be hugged by Ouyang Rong in his arms as if caring for her after she finished her work, her body clinging to her, her little head with messy silver hair resting sideways on his arm.

Ouyang Rong's slightly snoring breath, blowing on her red ears and neck, was a little itchy, but also a little comfortable... the surrounding area was full of his unique breath.

At this time, Ye Weilai would breathe quietly, for fear of disturbing him, but she couldn't help but hug his waist, rolled her eyes up, and looked carefully at his slightly tired sleeping face.

She was a light sleeper, and woke up after a short rest. Ouyang Rong had the habit of taking a nap, and now something happened, so she just had a rest.

He just recovered from his illness, so why bother him again... Ye Weilai suddenly felt self-blame in her heart, and she was annoyed for a while.

But she just couldn't help it.

For some reason, Ouyang Rong sometimes gives Ye Weilai a sense of alienation, a sense of indifference to everyone around her, including her.

Mingming Tanlang is very respectful and polite to everyone around him, including the humble servants, and is not indifferent or mean.

But it gives people a sense of alienation and indifference.

Like a layer of curtains, he is independent of this world, watching everyone from a very high cloud.

You can easily make eye contact with it, but you can never get close.

This feeling is very strange, as if it does not belong to the same world.

Maybe it's because Tan Lang is an upright gentleman, he restrains himself and respects the etiquette, and acts alone... Ye Weilai thought about it for a long time, and could only explain it this way.

However, this kind of upright gentleman may be like a spring breeze to people who are far away, such as the people of Longcheng, the officials of the county government, and the servants of Meiluyuan, and they are admirable.

But for those who want to get close to him, it is very troublesome and depressing.

Ye Weilai didn't know if Miss Xie felt this way, at least she felt so.

Therefore, on some occasions, the more honest Tan Lang is and the more alienated he is, the more Ye Weilai wants to lift the veil of being a gentleman, stick to him, and get close to him.

This is also the reason why Ye Weilai couldn't hold back and clumsily "seduce" Tan Lang.

Otherwise, where would a young girl have any shy desires? What can really move her is the happiness and satisfaction of her sweetheart, and the closeness and love for her, and she is willing to do anything for it.

There are [-] kinds of medicines in the world, but this one is the most aphrodisiac.

Even so, Ye Weilai still feels a little guilty when she thinks about it now.

Because Tan Lang's facial expression seemed to be a bit reluctant after finishing the matter not long ago.

Ye Weilai, with hot cheeks, squinted her eyes slightly, and vaguely noticed that Tan Lang seemed to be ashamed, and sighed.

Tan Lang still took good care of her and carefully put her to sleep, but he seemed to blame himself a little bit, and then he continued to mutter about "leakage of righteousness" and "remember it again" and so on.

Ye Weilai didn't quite understand it, so she could only understand that Tan Lang strictly demanded himself as a gentleman, and he was unwilling to break the precept.

On the bed, looking at the man in front of her, the white-haired girl couldn't help but admire and worship him more and more.

Ouyang Rong didn't know Ye Weilai's strange thoughts, when he opened his eyes, there was a cool wind blowing into the room outside the window.

"Didn't sleep?"

Ouyang Rong yawned and asked Ye Weilai, whose head was hidden in the bedding.

The latter shook his head, nodded again, and looked at the lazy-looking Ouyang Rong without blinking his big gray-blue eyes poking out of the bedding.

"Would you like to sleep a little longer?"

Ouyang Rong laughed, put on his clothes and got off the bed, turned around and poured a cup of tea, and handed it to Ye Weilai.

The girl also got up from the quilt, grabbed a pale pink lining, and put it on silently. Under Ouyang Rong's gaze, she closed the two open skirts with a red face, tied her belt, and covered her arms.

"Not thirsty."

Ye Weilai said in a low voice, but in the next second, she found that Ouyang Rong's eyes were fixed on her lips, and he did not speak while offering tea.

Some aftertaste immediately paid attention to the taste buds again, as if recalling something, Ye Weilai took the teacup with her head buried in her head, and drank it all up, but she didn't swallow it immediately, but kept a sip of tea in her mouth, covered her mouth with her little hand, and let out a sigh of relief. There were some gurgling sounds, and the roots of my ears became redder.

As if afraid of the white-haired maid's embarrassment, Ouyang Rong coughed lightly, looked away, and only occasionally raised his hand to hold her white chin, and gently wiped the red and swollen corners of her lips with his thumb.

Ye Weilai covered her mouth and lowered her head and asked, "Why is Tanlang so nice to Nu'er?"

"Am I nice to you?"

Ouyang Rong suddenly asked back.

Ye Weilai nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, her eyes were very serious.

There is no one like you in the world.

Ouyang Rong thought for a while, then lowered his eyes: "For those who treat me well, I will naturally treat her well."

"There are many, many people who want to treat Tan Lang well." Ye Weilai blurted out.

Ouyang Rong smiled and didn't reply.

Ye Weilai seemed to think of something, her eyes flickered, and she said calmly:
"Then if there is such a woman who treats Tan Lang very well, better than herself, does not ask for rewards, does not invite credit to please others, and even gives silently, even Tan Lang doesn't know about it."

Ouyang Rong shook his head, "How can there be such a stupid person."

Ye Weilai couldn't help but ask sideways: "But what if there really are?"

"If there is, I will definitely catch her and ask her why she is so stupid." Ouyang Rong said half-jokingly and half-seriously.

"Do you want to be arrested at the ends of the earth..."

Ye Weilai couldn't help asking, but just in the middle of speaking, there was a soft sound from the yard outside.

Ouyang Rong and Ye Weilai in the room looked curiously.

"It's nothing, you guys continue, I'm just passing by, watering the orchids, you just pretend I don't exist."

Outside the window, there was a girl with a heavy burden at first glance, with a beautiful face, who walked over with her usual expression, came to the window sill, and watered the orchids with the water ladle in her hand without turning her eyes.

His expression seemed to be very focused, and he didn't look at the two people in the room.

Ye Weilai looked around cautiously, and found that the clothes were still tidy, so she breathed a sigh of relief.

"Little sister."

Ouyang Rong, who was sitting by the bed, stood up and said pleasantly.

Xie Lingjiang squinted and asked, "You shouldn't have disturbed Senior Brother."

"Do you want to disturb me or not? Come in and sit down. I woke up at noon and I just wanted to find you." Ouyang Rong said with a smile.

"Oh, really."

Seeing the sincere and enthusiastic appearance of the elder brother, Xie Lingjiang seemed to look better, put down the water ladle, put his hands behind his waist, and walked into the room.

Facing Ouyang Rong who was coming up in the room, Xie Lingjiang looked left and right, shrugged his nose, frowned and asked:
"What is the taste?"

Ouyang Rong also looked around and wanted to ask, but immediately realized something, and immediately shook his head, pretending not to know.

"Tan Lang, my slave is going to bring some refreshments to Miss Xie." Ye Weilai suddenly volunteered.

Xie Lingjiang was about to refuse, but a certain white-haired maid slipped away from the two of them without waiting for her to speak, and ran out of the room with hot cheeks.

Ye Weilai's footsteps were a little messy.

You can't tell Miss Xie, this is the taste of Tan Lang's righteousness, right?
"This girl is getting more and more reckless." Ouyang Rong pretended to be serious and criticized.

He looked at the expression of the little junior sister calmly again, seeing that there was no suspicion on her face, he was slightly relieved.

"You can't say that, she is still very attentive to take care of senior brother these few days." Xie Lingjiang said casually.

Ouyang Rong asked Xie Lingjiang to sit down, and the two sat around the table.

After not seeing each other for a few days, Ouyang Rong couldn't help looking up and down at his junior sister.

I don't know if it's because I'm running around outside, but the younger sister's skin is a little darker, but this kind of darkness is only a bit darker compared to the snow-white skin that appears and disappears at her neck and neck. .

Moreover, Ouyang Rong felt that it would be better to get a tan. In addition, the younger sister's skin is easy to be whitened. I don't know if it is because of Qi refining. Back then, Yi Lanxuan was sick in bed for a while, and went to the government office the next day, so white. Dazzling, Ouyang Rong still remembers...

In addition, today Xie Lingjiang is still dressed in men's attire, wearing a small crown, and sitting in front of the table.

In addition, I don't know if it is Ouyang Rong's illusion. I haven't seen her for a few days, and I always feel that my sister's mind is a little wider. Wait, there is still room for development?
Thinking of the young junior sister's young age and great potential, Ouyang Rong couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion in his heart.

"You don't have to look at it, senior brother. I'm fine, junior sister. This trip went smoothly."

How could Xie Lingjiang think that the senior brother's frequent glances were concerned about her development, and mistakenly thought that he was worried and caring, so he couldn't help explaining.

"I don't worry about my junior sister's work." Ouyang Rong nodded, poured a cup of tea for Xie Lingjiang, lowered his eyes and took a sip.

It's just that although he told Ouyang Rong not to look at it, Xie Lingjiang repeatedly put down his teacup and looked at Ouyang Rong.

"Junior sister don't look at it either, I'm fine, just a cold, just a minor illness." Ouyang Rong blinked and teased.

Xie Lingjiang hesitated to speak, and finally said: "I heard them say about Senior Brother's work in Di Gongzha. Why is Senior Senior Brother so stupid?"

Ouyang Rong didn't answer, but suddenly raised his head and said, "Little Junior Sister, it wasn't you who drew the sword on the gate that day, right?"

Xie Lingjiang was taken aback.

Ouyang Rong looked down at the long sword of moonlight on her waist, if the younger martial sister drew the sword, there should be dazzling moonlight, as the younger junior sister demonstrated to him before.

That day when he was soaking in the water, he thought it was the little junior sister in a daze, but after waking up, he thought about it again and ruled out this option.

Facing Ouyang Rong's gaze, Xie Lingjiang nodded:

"It's an unknown Yue girl."

"Yue girl?" This time it was Ouyang Rong's turn to be stunned.

"Yes, I also listened to what they said after I came back. By the way, your maid was there at the time. From their description, the movement and movement of the sword should be a Yue girl from Yunmeng Jianze."

Xie Lingjiang looked at the sky outside and said with emotion:
"Maybe it happened to pass by the Di Gong gate, or it may be attracted by the movement of the water gate. After all, it is very close to Yunmeng Jianze. This Yue girl should be touched by your actions, senior brother, and chose to help. Waves...

"However, I heard that this Yue girl didn't stay on the gate for long. After the rain stopped, under the eyes of everyone, she rode the waves and disappeared into the depths of the water."

"Is that so..." Ouyang Rong was thoughtful.

Just at this time, Ye Weilai returned with a plate of pastries, Ouyang Rong couldn't help but turned around and asked a few words, and the little girl answered cautiously.

"Wei Lai, can you see her face clearly?"

"I was worried about Tan Lang at the time, but I never saw it clearly."

"No name left?"

Ye Weilai glanced at him, shook her head, and couldn't help adding: "Maybe she doesn't want to leave a name."

"That's a pity." Ouyang Rong shook his head regretfully: "Otherwise, if we meet again in the future, we should be very grateful."

Ye Weilai hesitated to speak, and finally lowered her head to look at the plate of mung bean cake in her hand.

This is the craft that the embroiderer taught her.Xiuniang left, and heard from her that she was returning to the division to do an important matter, so she couldn't stay in Longcheng for the time being.

Immediately, the topic of Ouyang Rong and Xie Lingjiang turned to the trip to Gezao Mountain.

"So, that old man named Chong Xuzi is upright, kind and kind."

After listening to it, Ouyang Rong laughed.

The corners of Xie Lingjiang's eyes twitched.

Of course, she didn't say all the things that Chong Xuzi said, but just picked the normal ones, so Ouyang Rong didn't know the old urchin side of the former.

Xie Lingjiang was unable to complain.

She can't talk about everything, can she lose face?

At this moment, as if recalling the secret that Chong Xuzi revealed again, Xie Lingjiang calmed down, raised his head and said suddenly:

"It would be great if senior brother could practice qi, then what happened at Digong gate that day would not happen, and the root cause of the disease would not continue."

Ye Weilai, who was tidying up the bed in the back room, heard the words and turned her head to look at the front hall. It seemed that a certain dumb woman had expressed similar meaning to her.

"Why did Junior Sister suddenly mention this?"

Ouyang Rong was startled, shook his head and said.

"Brother, don't you want to practice Qi?" Xie Lingjiang asked.

Ouyang Rong hesitated, then continued to shake his head:

"I don't know my situation yet, so don't think about it."

He was about to throw away his hands and leave, practice his hammer spirit, but he couldn't say this clearly in front of the enthusiastic little junior sister, so he had to find an excuse and answer like resignation.

But never thought, his salty fish attitude made Xie Lingjiang's eyes brighten and said:

"So the elder brother still thinks about it, right, but he has no choice but to leak his temperament."

Ouyang Rong looked up at her without any excuse.

Xie Lingjiang seemed to be in a good mood, got up and walked around the house a few times,

Turning his head suddenly, the conversation changed suddenly:
"Eldest brother, do you know what the most important thing for the scholars and people in the world today, inside and outside the Guanzhong and Beijing capitals?"

Ouyang Rong looked surprised, why did the topic change so quickly, but he still answered truthfully:
"The battle of Liwei."

He shook his head, his face was full of interest and he said:

"It's been nearly ten years since Empress Sheng Shang changed her name to Zhou Dynasty. Although most of the Li clan in the previous dynasty were slaughtered, those who survived were degraded, and those who changed their ugly surnames changed their ugly surnames. The two princes are still alive and well, and one is still kept in the deep palace, and there is no shortage of holy favors.

"Moreover, there are many ministers in the court, who are traditional conservative civil servants. They have been away for 70 years to support scholars, and they will stop wherever they say it. Naturally, they have a heart for Ligan and secretly support the prince of the Li family."

Ouyang Rong replied casually, lowering his head and taking a sip of tea. In fact, he had figured out the situation of the court when he just woke up. It's just that Longcheng County is too far away from Luoyang Chaotang, and most of the time it has nothing to do with him. After all, He is a Qipin county magistrate in a remote corner of Jiangnan Road.

Ouyang Rong stared down at the tea, pouted and said:

"However, the Holy Majesty's natal family and the princes of Wei's side are quite ambitious, or unwilling. After all, they have all made suggestions all the way to make the current Holy Majesty change to Zhou. The royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty must Let the surname be Wei, how can the surname be Li?
"Now the Holy Majesty is old, and the position of the emperor's heir is pending. Naturally, it will cause the Prince Li and the Prince Wei to compete. All the people and people in the world are paying attention to this matter... But junior sister, why are you asking this?"

"Then senior brother, who do you think will win?" Xie Lingjiang narrowed his narrow eyes.

Ouyang Rong paused while drinking tea.
