Chapter 78: Girl's Innocent Thoughts

When Xun Xia heard this, he was stunned as he had quickly finished cleaning and was about to leave. He immediately realized that this was words to comfort Miss Xingyue, so he left.

But in my heart, I just felt that Miss Chang'an was so gentle to others, I didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing.

When Li Xingyue heard Su Changan's words, she bit her lip, nodded slightly, but sighed.

I just wanted to be that elegant and dignified girl from the beginning until I left, but when we met this time, not only did I say strange things, I also ended up breaking the tea bowl.

I have completely lost face in front of Miss Chang'an today.

After sitting down again, Xiangluo brought up another bowl of tea. Before leaving, she secretly glanced at Su Changan.

Su Changan naturally smiled at Xiangluo.

Li Xingyue watched this scene, biting her lips, her hands still pinching each other nervously.

From what Su Changan had just said to her, she could naturally hear that Su Changan was comforting herself.

I feel that Su Changan is very gentle.

Now I see that she is so friendly to Su Changan, the servants in the palace.

It's not a comparison

I just feel inexplicably ashamed.

Su Changan looked at Li Xingyue's expression at the moment, and wanted to ease Li Xingyue's embarrassment from saying the wrong idiom just now to breaking the tea bowl, so he asked: "Come to think of it, Xingyue, you just said Zhao Xin told you? Did the child go to the Li Mansion to see you?"

Hearing this, Li Xingyue nodded immediately, but before she could speak, she sat up straight and spoke softly, "Well, Zhao Xin came the day before yesterday and told me a lot of things."

Su Changan looked at Li Xingyue's strange behavior and was puzzled for a moment, but he didn't say anything and asked, "The child didn't say anything, right? He is so fierce and always speaks without mercy. If he did say anything, please forgive me, Xingyue."

Li Xingyue shook her head gently: "Yes"

But as soon as she opened her mouth, Li Xingyue looked at Su Changan in surprise, because she just heard Su Changan call her Xingyue, calling her by her name!

And if I think about it carefully, when I asked Su Zhaoxin about that annoying person just now, I mentioned it was Xingyue.

While thinking this, Li Xingyue looked at Su Changan and asked carefully: "Can I call you by your name too?"

But after saying that, he thought for a moment and said, "You are older than me, so I should call you sister."

Although Su Changan felt helpless, she was used to it after thinking about how many people called her sister, Miss, etc., so she nodded and said, "Sure."

Changan Sister

Li Xingyue had never called anyone "sister" before, so she felt a little embarrassed to suddenly call someone "sister".

But after trying to call it a few times in my mind, it came out quite smoothly, and I felt that the embarrassment and nervousness just now was nothing.

It seems that there is nothing to be embarrassed about in front of my younger sister.

Li Xingyue smiled for the first time since entering Lingqi Pavilion, and then said as if forgetting something: "Zhao Xin is very nice, he brought me a lot of food and some strange toys, but the kid's mouth is a bit annoying. I was in bed at the time and didn't have much strength, otherwise I would have wanted to beat him up, but overall I like him very much."

But having said this, Li Xingyue looked at Su Changan and suddenly realized that she might have gone a little too far.

Su Changan looked at Li Xingyue and smiled helplessly: "Does Xingyue know Si Wuxie?"

Li Xingyue was stunned. It sounded familiar. A name?

But then I feel like it’s not a person’s name, but rather some kind of academic subject.

Sister Changan wants to talk to me about knowledge?

I don't understand what to do.

Li Xingyue was a little anxious.

Su Changan smiled and said, "The so-called innocent thoughts, everyone has different understandings, I won't tell you in detail. However, I think the so-called innocent thoughts, in fact, is to dare to show others what you want and think in your heart, there is nothing wrong with that."

Speaking of which

Su Changan looked at the way Li Xingyue looked at him. Although her eyes were full of tears, he could tell that the girl was trying hard to listen.

But Su Changan saw the three big words "I don't understand" in Li Xingyue's eyes.

Helplessly, Su Changan said: "To put it simply, you don't need to pretend in front of me or others. Your original personality is good enough. There is no need to pretend to be a scholar or a gentle person.

Also, eat when you want to, you haven't recovered yet, you need to eat and drink, this is the most important part of recuperation, got it? So don't always sneak a peek at the pastry next to you, just eat it. And don't tell me any idioms, even if you are a scholar, you don't use idioms in your normal speech. "

…

Inside the Li Mansion

Li Jiulang did not attend the small court meeting today. He submitted a leave application and sat at home.

After all, I had nothing to do in the past two days. After I went there, I heard the Grand Tutor and the Queen Mother Li Nishang's subordinates arguing about Zhao Xiaojia's affairs, so I was too lazy to go or listen.

He just needs to do what he should do and how he should do it, whatever His Majesty asks him to do.

He was asked to take a leave today, so he took it.

And now.

Li Jiulang, the former top scholar, held in his hand the simplest book of "Idioms and Allusions", looking at the idioms specially marked by his silly daughter. He looked helpless, but he also felt that his daughter's silliness was cute.

To be a scholar, it is not as simple as just knowing a few idioms.

That child.

Li Jiulang was flipping through the books with a smile on his face. He accidentally saw traces of saliva, which clearly showed that the person had fallen asleep while reading, and he laughed out loud again.

Seeing this scene, the goateed strategist standing at the door smiled and did not disturb him.

Instead, Li Jiulang looked up at his subordinates who had followed him for decades.

The counselor named Xu Zisheng said, "The young lady has entered Lingqi Pavilion, and the Queen Mother has also heard the news."

Li Jiulang nodded: "Did Xianghong contact you?"

Xu Zisheng immediately shook his head: "Not yet, but I think it will be soon. After all, you didn't express your opinion on Zhao Xiaojia's matter, and this matter has shaken many of the ministers who follow the Queen Mother. I think the Queen Mother should be anxious, or maybe regret it?"

Li Jiulang smiled and said, "I won't regret it. I just thought that she was trying to save her son. I forgot that the woman was already crazy. As time went by, she became a lunatic. Would a lunatic regret doing something?"

Xu Zisheng frowned: "I think she is a little crazy to ask Zhao Xiaojia to come in this time, and even want Zhao Xiaojia to be the chief protector of the imperial guards to protect the capital."

Li Jiulang thought for a moment and said, "She is crazy, but not really crazy, because she knows that Su Changan has entered the palace and she has fallen into a trap, so."

At this point, Li Jiulang frowned, "I don't know either. I've thought of many possibilities, but I'm not sure. I guess everyone in the capital is wondering. And I could have guessed what she was going to do before, but since she suddenly attacked Xingyue this time, I found that I can no longer see through her. Or maybe everything she did was to vent her anger. After all, she's a lunatic."

Xu Zisheng thought about it and wanted to say something, but he felt that something was wrong. After thinking about it carefully, it was just as Li Jiulang said, it was really difficult to guess what a madman would do.

But Xu Zisheng immediately asked: "How about I go down?"

Although he didn't say anything, Li Jiulang shook his head and said, "Li Nishang knows that you are a thorn in my side, so let her continue to think so. If you are too proactive, she will be suspicious."

"When Xianghong sends you a message again, tell them that the conversation between His Majesty and I that day was about Xingyue entering the palace today, and also about Xingyue going to the Palace Administration Department."

Xu Zisheng nodded: "I understand."

Li Jiulang said nothing more, but handed a written memorial beside him to Xu Zisheng.

Xu Zisheng took it, opened it and read it.

Then he looked at Li Jiulang with a stunned expression: "Prime Minister, are we going to send this up?"

Li Jiulang nodded: "Yes. But I won't send you for now."

Xu Zisheng frowned and said, "It's true that we can sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, but if the Queen Mother and the Grand Tutor team up, it will be difficult to deal with. Besides, I'm afraid our position will be a little bit..."

Li Jiulang smiled and said, "My girl knows the phrase 'risky move' and even marked it. Why are you so timid now?"

Xu Zisheng frowned.

Li Jiulang said, "Let's not talk about that. Xingyue was dressed like that this morning. I don't know how she is now. And you can see that the idioms marked are not commonly used by us. The characters are also very uncommon. I don't know if she will make a fool of herself after entering."

At the end, he smiled helplessly.

Xu Zisheng looked worried, but seeing Li Jiulang like this, he didn't know what to say.

But thinking about Li Xingyue coming to him with this book yesterday to ask about the characters, he couldn't help but smile: "After all, I thought Miss Chang'an would definitely find out."

Li Jiulang shook his head helplessly: "That girl hopes to study more with Miss Chang'an after entering the palace as a female official. She just thinks about not bringing shame to me and the Li family. I don't know where all these ideas come from."

Xu Zisheng smiled and said, "It's also for filial piety."

Hearing this

Li Jiulang smiled and said, "That child is actually quite good, but he had to pretend that he hated her. Why is he so thoughtful?"

At this time, a steward from the palace stood at the gate of the courtyard and said, "Prime Minister, someone claiming to be Zhao Xiaojia wants to see you."

Hearing this, Xu Zisheng looked at Li Jiulang.

Li Jiulang smiled and said, "You really came. Did you bring money?"

The steward shook his head: "He came empty-handed, alone."

Li Jiulang immediately said, "Tell him that the Protector-General of the Imperial Guards will receive one million taels of gold, and the Deputy Protector-General will receive six hundred thousand taels of gold."

The steward was stunned for a moment, but still turned around and left respectfully.

I just took a deep breath in my heart. It was the first time I saw the master publicly offer a price, and it was so high.

but

As the steward left, Li Jiulang thought to Xu Zisheng, "Please go tell Zhao Xiaojia that if he wants to take his soldiers from the Yunyang County Cavalry Battalion with him, he will need eight million taels of silver, and gold."

Xu Zisheng wanted to say something but hesitated, but finally bowed and turned to leave.

Ps: I have something to do at home, so I'm sorry that the update is over.
