At the entrance of Qin Mansion.
A weak girl in a plain white dress, supported by a maid, stood silently on the steps, staring blankly at the empty alley in the distance.
The night gets darker and the lights dim.
The carriage has already left.
The people in the carriage had already disappeared into the distant night, getting further and further away from her.
The night wind blew, bringing a bit of coolness.
She couldn't help but cough a few times, but still stood there stubbornly, refusing to leave.
There was a rush of footsteps behind him.
A snow-white fox fur was draped over her body, tightly wrapping her fragile body in it.
A warm jade hand held her cold hand tightly.
A gentle word sounded in her ears: "It's okay, Weimo, you have to believe him. With his ability, no one can force him."
The girl was stunned and said softly: "Mom, Weimo is just thinking... Can Weimo hold on until my brother-in-law is in high school?"
"Yes, it must be possible!"
The young beautiful woman held her tightly in her arms, her eyes were red and her voice was trembling: "I believe you can do it... Wei Mo, mother wants to see you in your wedding robe. It must be beautiful, very beautiful..."
The girl murmured in a low voice: "Weimo, I also want to..."
It's quiet at night.
Carriages started running on the empty streets.
Not long after.
Already at the palace gate.
Yue Wu got off his horse, walked to the carriage, opened the curtain, and said softly: "Master Luo, we're here."
Luo Qingzhou was wearing a large Confucian robe and came out of the carriage calmly, holding a thick roll of rice paper in his hand.
Yue Wu glanced at his delicate cheeks, stretched out her slender hands and said, "Master Luo, let me help you."
Luo Qingzhou jumped from the other side.
Yuewu: "..."
The two entered the palace.
Stepping on the soft red carpet, Yue Wu turned her head to look at him and couldn't help but ask: "Master, aren't you afraid at all?"
Luo Qingzhou looked strange: "Why should I be afraid?"
Yue Wu's eyes flashed and she said, "If you go in later, you may not be able to come out again. Aren't you afraid of what will happen?"
Luo Qingzhou turned to look at her: "Will Your Highness kill me?"
Yuewu said: "Of course not."
Luo Qingzhou smiled faintly: "That's it, since His Highness won't kill me, then what else do I have to be afraid of? As Your Highness, you don't even bother to do something to me that I don't want to do, right? ?”
Yue Wu moved her lips and said no more.
at the same time.
In the study, the curtains cover the room and the fragrance lingers.
Nangong Huoyue was dressed in a fiery red dress and was sitting in front of the desk, holding a wolf hair and practicing calligraphy seriously.
Next to him, a charming girl with a graceful figure and tender skin, wearing a light gauze, revealing the ravine on her chest, was kneeling respectfully next to her with a pair of bare white jade feet, holding an ink block in her bare hands, and gently rubbing the ink with her head lowered. .
The slender legs and graceful figure sitting on her knees are looming in the gauze skirt, which is extremely attractive.
Tick tock, tick tock...
The dripping outside the window is silently counting the hours of the night.
Nangong Huoyue put down her pen, picked up the rice paper on the table, and took a look at her handwriting. She seemed quite satisfied.
"Are you ready?"
she asked suddenly.
The charming girl kneeling respectfully next to her lowered her head and replied sweetly: "Yes."
The voice is charming and captivating.
Nangong Huoyue put down the rice paper in her hand, turned her head, stared at her for a few times, couldn't help but stretched out her hand, pinched her delicate chin, and lifted her cheeks.
This is a naturally charming face, with watery eyes and charming expression. No matter who looks at it, their whole body will feel soft.
"You should know his effect on me. If you succeed, I will have a reason to give you to him; if you fail, I will give you away tomorrow."
"Remember, I will not force him, I will only create opportunities for you. He is also very determined, and he is very henpecked."
"So, you have to rely on yourself tonight."
The girl lowered her head and said softly: "Yes."
Not long after.
There were footsteps outside.
Yue Wu's voice came from the door: "Your Highness, Mr. Luo is here."
Nangong Huoyue stood up and greeted him enthusiastically: "Sir, please come in quickly."
The bead curtain made a sound.
Luo Qingzhou took off his shoes and entered the house, bowed and said: "Meet your Highness."
Nangong Huoyue stared at his delicate and indifferent cheeks and said with a smile: "Sir, you're welcome. Come on, please sit down. I have a few issues that I want to discuss with you, sir."
Luo Qingzhou followed her to the desk and sat down, without squinting.
A snow-white jade hand stretched out from the side, picked up the teapot, poured tea for him, and said softly: "Master, Hua Gu, can I ask you a question first?"
The voice is charming and soft, and every word is crisp.
As he spoke, the fragrance of sandalwood breathed out, making people intoxicated.
Nangong Huoyue sat down, looked at the two of them with a faint smile on his face, and said no more.
Luo Qingzhou held his breath and refused directly: "I'm sorry, Miss Huagu, I'm stupid and can't answer."
Hua Gu pouted her little mouth and said aggrievedly: "Sir, I haven't asked yet."
Luo Qingzhou said directly: "No matter what the girl asks, I can't answer it."
Hua Gu: "..."
Nangong Huoyue said with a smile: "Sir, I'm afraid you are too cruel to treat a delicate woman who is as beautiful as a flower."
Luo Qingzhou cupped his hands and said, "I'm here to talk to His Highness tonight, not with anyone else. Your Highness, can you ask her to step down?"
Nangong Huoyue looked at the girl next to her and said calmly: "Sir, please step back."
The girl lowered her head, bit her pink lips, raised her jade hands, gently untied the silk belt around her waist, and slowly took off the gauze on her body, revealing her jade-white and smooth shoulders and chest. He looked up and said shyly: "Master, I have taken off my dress... Master, can you raise your head and take a look?"
Luo Qingzhou ignored it, lowered his head and took out a roll of rice paper from his wide sleeve robe, presented it with both hands, handed it to the eldest princess, and said respectfully: "Your Highness, in addition to "Tai Gong's Six Tao" and "Sima's Art of War" In addition, there is also a copy of "Wu Zi's Art of War" below. Written on this rice paper are the three chapters of "Wu Zi's Art of War": "Charting the Country", "Predicting the Enemy", and "Treating Diseases". Your Highness can take a look at it first. If His Highness is satisfied, I can write out the remaining chapters."
Nangong Huoyue narrowed her eyes, reached out to take it, put it on the table, and slowly unfolded it.
"...In the past, those who wanted to build a country must first educate the people and then be close to all the people. There are four discords: if you are not in harmony with the country, you cannot send out the army; if you are not in harmony with the army, you cannot leave Chen; if you are not in harmony with Chen, you cannot enter Fight; if you don’t fight in harmony, you can’t win decisively..."
Seeing this, her eyes sparkled, and she immediately sat upright, holding her breath and concentrating, and continued to look down.
"Whenever you govern a country or an army, you must teach them propriety, encourage them to be righteous, and make them feel shameful. If you are ashamed, you can fight when you are big, and you can defend when you are small. However, it is easy to win, but difficult to win..."
There was silence in the study.
Only the oil lamp made an occasional beeping sound when burning.
Hua Gu, who was sitting beside her with her head bowed, waited patiently for a long time. Thinking of His Highness's words just now asking her to rely on herself, she bit her pink lips, raised her head, looked at the handsome scholar in front of her, and said softly: "Young Master, I am... "
"Shut up!"
Nangong Huoyue suddenly raised her eyebrows and stared at her angrily: "Get out!"
Hua Gu: "..."
She was stunned for a moment, clearly feeling the anger of the eldest princess, and she dared not hesitate. She stood up in a hurry, picked up the gauze that had fallen to the ground, and retreated in panic.
Nangong Huoyue lowered her head, her eyes were fiery, and there were two flushes of excitement on her face, and she continued to look down.
After reading the chapter of "Tu Guo" carefully for a long time, Fang raised his head and said: "Sir, you have tea and snacks. There are books on the table, sir, you can read them at will. If you need anything else, just call Yue Wu, I need to read these chapters first."
Luo Qingzhou said respectfully: "Your Highness, please leave me alone."
Nangong Huoyue was no longer polite and continued to watch, remember, and think carefully.
The night passed quietly.
I do not know how long it has been.
There was a sudden "click" sound of something breaking on the roof.
The expressions of Yueying and the guard outside the house suddenly changed. When they were about to check, Nangong Huoyue suddenly said: "Ignore it."
"Yes, Your Highness."
Yueying's cold voice came from outside.
Nangong Huoyue squinted her eyes, glanced at the closed curtains in front of the window, and then glanced at the young man kneeling in front of her. She moved the corners of her mouth slightly and continued to lower her head and read carefully.
at the same time.
A red bead inlaid on the eaves of the roof has been broken into pieces for some unknown reason.
On the eaves, there was a moon-white figure like moonlight, standing there silently, motionless.
The guards below could clearly see here, but they couldn't see her.
Before I knew it, it was already midnight.
In the study room, the heat was still flowing and cigarette smoke was curling up.
Nangong Huoyue frowned and thought for a long time while reading each word. Finally, she raised her head and looked at the young man in front of her with fiery eyes and said, "Sir, where's the one below?"
Luo Qingzhou lowered his head and cupped his hands: "Your Highness, it's getting late."
Nangong Huoyue stared at him for a while, then suddenly stood up, walked to the side, knelt down, picked up the ink block, began to grind the ink, and said respectfully: "Sir, hurry up, I can't sleep at night."
Luo Qingzhou lowered his head and said respectfully: "Your Highness, I haven't figured it out yet."
Nangong Huoyue was silent for a moment and said: "Sir, I will write a memorial early tomorrow morning. I cannot guarantee whether their mother and daughter will be convicted, but I can assure you, sir, that even if they are found guilty of treason, He will definitely be safe and sound.”
Luo Qingzhou raised his head, reached out and picked up a piece of clean rice paper from the side, slowly unfolded it on the table, then picked up the wolf's hair, dipped it in the ink she had just made, and said: "Your Highness, I just thought carefully about it. After a while, I suddenly thought of it again, so I will write it to His Highness."
Nangong Huoyue squeezed out a smile on her face, lowered her head slightly, and said respectfully: "Thank you, sir."
Luo Qingzhou lowered his head and waved ink.
In the study, the atmosphere was harmonious and innocent.
On the eaves of the roof, the moon-white figure still stood there, bathed in the white moonlight, motionless.
Outside the palace.
Under the big tree not far away, there was also a slender figure standing there, shrouded in shadow, motionless, and it was unknown how long it had been standing.
