The past life is cold and the present life is warm

Chapter 134 Posts
Xiao Jingchang waited in the study for less than half an hour when he saw a man in his 40s rushing over. It was Xu Jili, Minister of the Ministry of Industry.As soon as he entered the door, he said, "I don't know what the lord's order is for calling the minister in the middle of the night."

Xiao Jingchang turned the cup and said slowly: "I heard that the person sent by the father to Jiangdu has been selected. It's Xiao Liu, that idiot? Is it?"

Xu Jili found a chair in the room to sit casually, nodded and said, "That's right. Isn't this what we planned a long time ago? Why does the prince think there is something wrong?"

Xiao Jingchang put down the teacup, looked up at Xu Jili and said, "Master Xu, you may have heard that Emperor Father has added a few people to the list for the Qiuju Banquet today."

Xu Jili nodded and replied: "I've heard of such a thing. But it has nothing to do with us sending King Rong Sheng away, right?"

Xiao Jingchang tapped the booklet on the table with his knuckles and said, "It doesn't matter? Do you know who Father has added to this list?"

Xu Jili stretched his neck to look at the table, then stood up and took the booklet in his hand.The name of the male guest is written on the front of the booklet.The first one on the top is actually Shao Zhiyan, the son of Duke Huguo, the second one is Rongsheng King Xiao Jingrong, and the ones behind are the children of aristocratic families and descendants of military generals arranged according to their official ranks.

Xu Jili didn't see anything wrong, and then turned back again.I found that some girls from aristocratic families and ladies of high-ranking military generals were also invited.Xu Jili still didn't see anything wrong.

He put down the folder and said, "Except for not knowing why Mr. Su put Shao Zhirong in front, I don't see anything wrong with it?"

Xiao Jingchang snorted with some dissatisfaction: "Are you really not seeing it or are you just pretending to be stupid? Why did the emperor suddenly let Xiao Liu go to such a banquet at this juncture. Obviously, he should be allowed to leave Beijing as soon as possible for disaster relief, the better." .”

Xu Jili took a breath and said, "Your Majesty means that His Majesty wants to take this opportunity to choose a concubine for King Rongsheng? But what I heard from the Ministry of Rites is that this list was changed to choose a concubine for Shao Zhiyan."

Xiao Jingchang frowned, and his expression became gloomy: "You said that the father wanted to choose a concubine for Shao Zhirong. This is strange, he has been single for so long, why did he think of choosing a concubine for him at this time."

Xu Jili paused and said: "I heard from your mother and concubine that your cousin's behavior was a bit excessive, which aroused His Majesty's disgust. That's why I wanted to take this opportunity to slap your cousin in the face."

Xiao Jingchang frowned even tighter and asked, "What do you mean?"

Xu Jili talked about the original roster and the plan of his cousin He Yinghuai.After hearing this, Xiao Jingchang shook his head angrily and said: "Okay, I understand. It seems that the father wanted to disgust him. By the way, beat me and the concubine mother. Don't go too far in this matter. He Yinghuai also Really. Who does she think she is, even wanting to hold a "draft"? I will try to kill her."

"Okay, okay, I thought my father wanted to take the opportunity to help pave the way for the little six. It seems that I was wrong. But since the Qiuju Banquet is so lively, it seems that I have to make a post to take a stroll. gone."

Then Xu Jili thought for a while and said: "I think the prince's worry is also reasonable. Let's be more careful."

Xiao Jingchang smiled: "I heard you said that, it's not a serious problem. But you can also pay more attention. Just in case."

Xu Jili nodded and said: "Since the prince has nothing to do, the minister will leave?"

Xiao Jingchang smiled and waved his hands.Xu Jili bowed out and left.After Xu Jili left, Xiao Jingchang's face became gloomy again and he said, "Go to He Mansion and ask the butler to write a post for me. But don't write my name on the list. I also want to participate in the Qiuju Festival." Banquet. Let's see which girl is lucky enough to be our princess."

There was a voice in the air: "Yes."

Su Wanqiu got up early as usual and went to copy scriptures after washing up.When I was copying seriously, I heard Tourmaline's voice from the yard: "Master, didn't you say that you will meet friends for three days? Why did you come back early today. Could it be that your friend doesn't like you very much?"

Immediately afterwards, Wuquan's voice came: "Go, go, see if your lady is up? I have something important to ask. I don't have time to spend time with you, a stinky girl."

Then I heard Suzhu’s voice saying: "Master, you have to wait in the room. My girl is copying the scriptures. It will not be better in a while. Have you always eaten breakfast? If you haven’t eaten, do you want to eat it first?" Have something to eat?"

Wu Quan outside the house gave tourmaline a glance and said, "Look, she is still a sensible girl."

Saying this, he smiled at Su Zhu and said, "Okay, I came here in such a hurry that I really didn't eat anything. If you have anything to eat, bring me some."

Su Wanqiu in the room was a little amused, but she still finished copying the scriptures seriously and patiently.When she came out of the study, she saw Wu Quan holding the meat roll in one hand and drinking the soup with the soup bowl in the other.

Su Wanqiu said with a smile: "Master, why are you rushing to find your apprentice when you come back so early?"

Wu Quan was busy drinking the soup and ignored Su Wanqiu, and waited until the soup was finished before saying: "Yes, it's very important. Life is related. But don't be in a hurry. The most important thing is to have a full stomach. Come here, good boy, let's eat first."

After Su Wanqiu sat down opposite Wu Quantum, she ordered Su Zhu to take out the results of her divination from yesterday and said, "Master, please look at this after you finish eating. This is the result I got yesterday. It still feels a little unclear.”

While eating the meat roll, Wu Quan glanced at the result, then he couldn't help but froze for a moment, and he flipped the note in front of him.He took a closer look and asked uncertainly, "My dear boy, what did you take care of yesterday?"

Su Wanqiu took a small steamed cake and was about to put it in her mouth, but she couldn't help laughing after hearing Wu Quan's words: "Master, why did you run out of the mansion yesterday?"

Wuquan smiled and said, "I was fooling you. I figured yesterday that it is not suitable to stay in the mansion. Maybe there are troubles that I can't solve, so I thought about going out for a stroll."

Su Wanqiu was taken aback and couldn't help frowning: Why did it feel like she was being fooled by her words.It is estimated that Wuquan might have something inconvenient to say, so she did not ask but said: "I have a friend with a broken leg. It has not been cured for many years. Yesterday I wanted to ask if you could let him see it." Look. As a result, you were not here, so I did a fortune-telling according to what you said to see if his leg could be cured. As a result, this divination came out.”

Wuquan nodded, stroked his beard and asked, "Then how do you understand this hexagram?"
