In the courtyard courtyard, on both sides of the stone bench, Youji poured a cup of tea and put it in front of Xia Hongsheng. Xia Hongsheng picked up the cup, put it in front of his nose and smelled it, then took a sip and slowly pressed it down, feeling the fragrance of tea from the bottom of his heart, and couldn't help nodding: "This tea brewing is very delicious, but the girl's tea art is getting better and better." Now that I'm coming, I'm afraid it's far less than the girl. ”

You Ji smiled, squinted her eyes and smiled like a legendary fox, glanced at Xia Hongsheng with a smile, and said, "Son, please drink tea, and listen to the concubine slowly talk a few words, okay?" ”

Xia Hongsheng looked at Youji unexpectedly and said with a smile: "If Miss Youji has anything to say, I will naturally listen to it." ”

Youji retracted her skirt, leaned forward, and asked with a smile: "The method of killing locusts is superb, and the concubine has read a lot of classics to herself, and even the knowledge of the sons of the pre-Qin Dynasty has been seen from some remaining books. Although the law of Gewu has been mentioned, the concubine has never thought that Gewu can be powerful, like a miracle of immortal law! ”

"Did the girl just want to sigh at this way of things?" Xia Hongsheng smiled: "Gewu is indeed amazing, to a certain extent, it is to make people go to the sky and enter the sea, and it is easy to break through the clouds and waves." It's a pity that all I know is a little bit of the surface, and if the girl is willing, she will teach the girl below. ”

"Just the fur is already like a childe immortal, so to the extreme, what kind of scenery should it be? Such a powerful thing, the son preached and taught, but the concubine didn't know what to say for a while. The concubine heard about it, this man. If you force yourself to seek more than you can bear. will bring disaster. Childe's way of learning things is a miracle. The concubine doesn't know if she can be worthy. You Ji covered her mouth and chuckled, and said: "But the concubine wants to ask the prince at this time, why do you want to provoke the relationship between the concubine and the adult?" Could it be that Gongzi is still not dead, and still wants to serve Li Shimin? That son is so thoughtful, will he Li Shimin know? Childe has been missing for so long, so what is Li Shimin's movement, isn't it that he doesn't care about it at all? Not even a notice to be found! At this time, Childe was still trying to stir up a wedge between us. But did he remove hidden dangers for Li Shimin? ”

Xia Hongsheng's heart froze, and his face changed slightly. I didn't expect to be seen by Yuhime so soon!

"Childe, the concubine sincerely wants to ask Childe, how can he Li Shimin be virtuous, can he be so favored by Childe, is to risk losing his life, and he has to serve him?!" You Ji saw that Xia Hongsheng didn't speak, so she said again: "Is the prince really unwilling to give the concubine a chance?" What he Li Shimin can give to his son, we will give him ten times or a hundred times more every day! Gongzi is so sure that Li Shimin will become a Ming monarch, so we can't give the people a prosperous world? One did not hesitate to kill his own brother for the sake of power. Is the emperor who coerced his father to abdicate by force really worthy of the assistance of his son?! ”

Xia Hongsheng shook his head. sighed: "Miss Youji, you are so clever that you can see that I am separating the two of you, so you really can't see what my intention is in doing this?" Or does the girl not want to admit it? ”

Youji raised her eyebrows, narrowed her eyes and smiled: "The concubine doesn't understand what the son means, and asks the son to make it clear to the concubine." ”

"I am willing to help Li Shimin because he has great talent and strategy, although the means to ascend to the throne are not very bright, but he can return the people of Li to a world of peace. I'm willing to help Miss Youji because ......" Xia Hongsheng shook his head, didn't continue, changed his words, and said: "What about that person, he didn't let me see the open-mindedness that can encompass the world, and second, he didn't let me see that he had a strategy and scheming that could compete with Li Shimin. Why should I surrender to Him and help Him? Miss Youji, she is not talented, but she is not something that anyone can call. ”

"What does Childe mean? ......" Yuhime covered her mouth and smiled.

"It's all about this, if the girl still pretends not to understand, then it's not interesting." Xia Hongsheng shook his head and said, "The locust exterminators have been dispatched, and with their actions to exterminate locusts in various places, the name of the Red Lotus Fairy will be known by more and more people. These people will be grateful for the kindness of the Red Lotus Fairy, and many of them will join the Red Lotus Fairy's teachings. The people believed in the Red Lotus Fairy dressed in red, not a masked man whose name was not even known. At that time, it was the girl, not him, who controlled that power. And the girl has my assistance, and he will be hollowed out, but he will become the person who has no real power. If it were the other girl, wouldn't you be jealous? So in fact, it doesn't matter what is going on, it's only a matter of time before he does anything to the girl. It's just a matter of letting the two of you realize what will happen in the future in advance, so you can deal with it as soon as possible. ”

"So it sounds like the prince thinks that the adult will definitely turn against the concubine?" You Ji didn't seem to believe Xia Hongsheng's words: "We just haven't overthrown Li Shimin, returned His Royal Highness the Prince's innocence, and took back what originally belonged to His Royal Highness the Prince." At that time, isn't the power of the concubine body our common force? Childe is so sure that we will definitely have infighting? ”

"There are really a lot of people in this world who are not keen on power, but who value their goals more seriously." Xia Hongsheng smiled: "There is one me in such a person, but there will definitely be no him." ”

You Ji filled Xia Hongsheng's water cup with water again: "In this way, the son provoked with words, but it turned out that he did it for the sake of the concubine?" ”

"Not bad. Miss Youji, replacing it is a long-term strategy. Xia Hongsheng nodded and said, "Since I have agreed to be the girl's staff, I should naturally give top priority to the girl's interests." Therefore, the decisions and actions are made in the interests of the girl. Now that the girl is a foregone conclusion that she will receive the hearts of the people as a red lotus fairy, it is only a matter of time before that person gives birth to a gap in the girl. When the time comes, he will definitely secretly obstruct and seize power from the girl. But even if the girl doesn't have the heart to be in power and is willing to give it up, I'm afraid it won't work. Because those who believe in the Red Lotus Fairy will not agree. At that time, I am afraid that the only way to get rid of the girl is to say that the Red Lotus Fairy will be recalled by Lao Jun, and he will replace the girl in the form of a successor. This kind of thing can't happen at the same time, even if it's just a possible risk, and I don't want to take it. Yesterday things were urgent, and the girl would not be very willing to come, so she did that without consulting the girl, it was abrupt. ”

As he spoke, Xia Hongsheng arched his hand.

You Ji looked at Xia Hongsheng fixedly, looking directly into Xia Hongsheng's eyes, as if she wanted to see something from it. Xia Hongsheng looked at each other calmly, with a light smile on his face, and looked at Youji so directly.

After a long time, Youji bowed forward: "Thanks to the son, the concubine is the wrong son!" ”

Xia Hongsheng waved his hand: "It's also that I didn't say anything in front of me, if I have any plans in the future, I will definitely discuss it with the girl first." There is another matter, it has been several days since the people sent out to exterminate the locusts, and the girl should reappear a few times, so that those who have received the blessings of the Red Lotus Fairy will know who they have been rescued from. ”

"The concubine understands, let's go and prepare here. Does Childe have any other instructions? Youji bowed to Xia Hongshengying, stood up, turned around and asked again before leaving.

"Grain." Xia Hongsheng also stood up with a smile: "Although the meat quality of locusts is good, it is not as reassuring as food. The Red Lotus Fairy came and brought food, which should be a thankful thing. ”

"The concubine understands." Yuhime nodded, then turned to leave.

Xia Hongsheng watched Youji leave from behind, and laughed secretly in his heart, go buy food to help the people, use the money you used to rebel to help the people, this son is helping you accumulate virtue!

Moreover, it has been several days since Youji sent people to various places to exterminate locusts and help the people, maybe Li Shimin has sent people down, but he can't find where he is now. At this time, I went out with Youji to make another move, attracted the people sent by Li Shimin, and found a way to pick up the head and wipe out this group of chaotic parties!

"Childe?" The maidservant standing next to Xia Hongsheng looked at Xia Hongsheng curiously: "Why is the son laughing for no reason?" ”

Uh, Xia Hongsheng turned his head, looked at the maid, and said, "Don't you think that Miss Youji has a better attitude towards me?" By the way, this girl, I want to ask you about something, and you don't want anyone else to know! ”

The maid's eyes tightened, and she looked over quietly: "I don't know what the son wants to inquire?" If the slave or maid knows, she should tell her son. ”

"Well, it's actually not a big deal...... Xia Hongsheng scratched his head cowardly, smiled wryly, and asked, "I just want to inquire, I don't know how old is Miss Youji?" With that...... Ahem, you know, the one with the mask...... Well, I'm just curious, I don't mean anything else - what is the relationship between the two? Do you have...... You know...... So what?! ”

The maid blinked her glasses and looked at Xia Hongsheng blankly, not understanding what he was going to ask. The next moment, as if she had suddenly figured out something, her face suddenly turned red, she took several steps back, stomped her feet, and shamed a flushed face: "Gong, Gong...... Why, how can you ask that...... Big, adults and my young lady are just ...... It's just that...... I, my young lady, am clean and self-conscious, so naturally I won't ...... Won't be with anyone...... Oops, how can Childe think so much about my young lady! …… Slave, slave maid went to fetch water! ”

After saying that, with a blushing face, he immediately turned around and hurriedly trotted out of the courtyard.

Xia Hongsheng still chased after him: "Hey! I'll just ask, but don't dare to let your young lady know! ”

Then I heard a groaning outside, and thought it was the maid who stumbled, and then hurried away.

Xia Hongsheng looked outside, and a meaningful smile appeared on his face. (To be continued......)
