73. Chapter 73
If he knew that his brother was suddenly so bold, He Zhihua would definitely be shocked.
And now, Luo Baoying restrained her smile and looked at He Chen, once the girl didn't smile, she was unexpectedly majestic, and she was high.
He Chen immediately realized that he might have said the wrong thing.
It's an impulse and he didn't think about anything, Luo Baoying is only thirteen, so he doesn't say that he is young, just saying that he is married, he has to follow his parents' orders to match the words of the concubine, how can he just talk to Luo Baoying alone? This is inevitably unjustifiable, as if some bullying the girl's family.
"I ......," he lowered his head and saluted her, "I was reckless, and I ask the third girl to forgive me." ”
In a short period of time, there have already been two people who want her to marry him, one of them is Wei Lang, Luo Baoying is strict on her face, but in fact, her heart is in a mess.
Because she really hadn't thought about who she was going to marry, she couldn't respond.
"He Gongzi doesn't have to blame himself, everyone has carelessness." Luo Baoying returned the salute, "Today's loss to Gongzi He, I can play against Tao Fuzi, so that I have one less regret, thank you." ”
There was no complaint in her tone, but she was also calm, and she couldn't see the slightest joy, as if she didn't listen to what he just said at all, He Chen was a little uneasy, this kind of love of gain and loss made him feel like a big stone was pressed on his chest, and he couldn't breathe.
Seeing that he was cramped and uneasy, Luo Baoying didn't want the two of them to be so embarrassed, and said with a smile: "Gongzi He, how does Tao Fuzi usually teach you?" He's so quiet, he won't order you to read a book by yourself every day and wait until you have any questions to ask him, right? ”
She cleverly diverted the topic, so that He Chen could have a ladder to go down.
Because she took the initiative to speak, He Chen secretly breathed a sigh of relief, no matter what, Luo Baoying always didn't hate him, otherwise she would have brushed her sleeves and walked away just now, he regained some confidence, and said with a smile: "As the third girl expected, the master taught in this way, in the master's opinion, any book, tens of millions of people have tens of millions of opinions, if people follow the clouds, they can't really understand the morality in the book." Therefore, when the master asked me to read the book, he always asked me to write an article after reading it, and then he commented on it, and he did not interfere too much. Of course, the Master also has tough times, especially when it comes to strategy, and he always thinks I'm too peaceful......"
The policy is an article to the imperial court, Tao Fuzi was a victim of the bribery case in the entrance examination, and he had quite objections to some of the practices of the imperial court, and sometimes he seemed to be in a hurry, Luo Baoying quite understood: "I don't blame Tao Fuzi, he didn't study Hu Daru before he was considered good." ”
That Hu Daru was also delayed by the academic officials in the examination room, and he was missed for a lifetime, and later established academies in major places, and actually made a school to deal with the imperial court, and the result was very tragic, and his head was different.
Compared with the two, Tao Fuzi occasionally only complains, which is really not excessive.
"You're absolutely right." He Chen smiled slightly, "I didn't think about it so much, but now it seems that the master is just depressed in his heart and venting his dissatisfaction." ”
As the two spoke, they had reached the end of the trail.
When I go out again, I will see He Zhihua and Chen Wan, which means that the time for alone time has come to an end.
He Chen was reluctant.
When he talked to her, it was like a spring breeze, and when he looked at her, he seemed to be covered in the sun, and there was no place that was unhappy, if he could, he would like to see her every day, but it was so difficult! I don't know what excuse to make next time.
Is it really a whole year to wait? But after this year, he went to propose, what if the Locke family refused?
In the fifteen years of his life, it seemed that it was the first time he had encountered such a thorny problem, and Rao is Tao Fuzi praised him for drawing inferences, and he was helpless at this time.
The young man's gaze turned into a silk thread wrapped around her, unwilling to let her leave.
Luo Baoying could feel his strong affection, but how could she not leave? Although He Chen is good, even in the past, he could match her with his family background, but now, what can she do, just promise him like this? No, she really didn't think it through.
She said sincerely: "Thank you really today, Gongzi He." ”
He Chen saw that she was leaving, remembered something, and asked, "Is it okay for me to give you a peony?" ”
That pot of "Yun Zi" is his favorite, and he also thinks it is the most suitable to give it to Luo Baoying, rare, beautiful, precious, I wonder if she has taken good care of it?
Speaking of this, Luo Baoying frowned slightly, and asked seriously: "It's a little older than last year, shouldn't I take advantage of spring to change a flower pot for it?" I'm worried that it won't be long enough. ”
The corners of He Chen's mouth curved, and he smiled brightly.
"No, it grows slowly, that's why it's planted in a flower pot, otherwise it would have been moved to the yard a little earlier, my flower pot is enough for it to grow for another two years, and after two years, you can change another one."
"Okay." Luo Baoying agreed.
She smiled and turned to leave.
He followed her and didn't retract it until he was far away.
Seeing Luo Baoying again, He Zhihua was not as enthusiastic as just now, fortunately they played chess with Tao Fuzi for a long time, and the hour was not early, and after a little chat, Luo Baoying said goodbye and went home. He Zhihua and Chen Wan said: "You and my brother, for me, the palms and backs of my hands are full of meat, but it's a pity that you didn't say earlier, now that my brother has fallen in love with Miss Luo San, how can I be good?" ”
Chen Wan bit her lip.
When she saw Luo Baoying for the first time, she felt threatened, and even did not hesitate to fall off the horse, so that He Zhihua hated her, who would have thought that this plan would not succeed, and she did not expect that He Chen and Luo Baoying had not met a few times, but they could be unforgettable.
She showed herself anxiously.
Seeing that she was silent, He Zhihua sighed: "Don't worry, how many years of friendship we have, I will always help you." ”
When Chen Wan left, He Zhihua went to see He Chen.
He Chen was in the study, holding a few ink ingots, picking them up.
They are all good ink ingots, which are worth a lot of money, He Zhihua asked knowingly: "What is my brother doing?" But I think there are too many ink ingots, if there are too many, give me a few ingots, mine is just not enough. ”
"This side will be given to you." He Chen took the ink ingot from it and handed it over.
He Zhihua had sharp eyes and took a better one: "I like this." ”
He Chen was a little reluctant, that was what he was going to give to Luo Baoying.
Luo Baoying won the first place at the eldest princess's tea poetry party, her calligraphy is extraordinary, and she must have studied ink ingots a little, he plans to find an opportunity to send it to Luo's house, even if it is inconvenient to see her, he doesn't want to pass too long, Luo Baoying will forget him.
"I've got other uses for this." He snatched it up, "You can pick anything else." ”
He Zhihua smiled angrily, look, if you haven't married yet, it's all in favor of Luo Baoying, but on the one hand, I'm worried, how can such a brother like Chen Wan? She sat on the begonia chair on the side, looked at her handsome brother, and whispered: "Brother, you should study hard at your age now, it's not good to just think about girls." ”
"Who thought?" He Chen's face flushed.
He Zhihua said: "The hero is short of breath and his children are long, if my brother is so inattentive, how can he take the township test this year?" If you can't pass the exam, do you think the three girls can take a fancy to you? I can see that the third girl is arrogant, and she must be unsightly for ordinary men. ”
He Chen sighed in his heart, but agreed with this, like Luo Baoying, he must be worthy of an excellent husband, otherwise he is afraid that he will have inferiority complex if he stands next to her.
Seeing that his face was solemn, He Zhihua said: "So my brother should put his mind on the township test, right?" ”
He Chen couldn't object.
However, he is emotionally immature, which does not mean that he has no confidence in other aspects, after all, the He family is a scholarly family, and every generation is not inferior to his peers in studying, and he has a western seat like Tao Fuzi, and the middle move is just around the corner, he raised his chin slightly and said: "You don't have to worry about it, even if you live up to my father, I will not waste my studies." ”
He Zhihua smiled: "It's good that my brother knows, there is no grass at the end of the world, my brother has become a master, and all the girls in the world are chosen by my brother, and it doesn't necessarily have to be a third girl." ”
He frowned when he heard this: "I'm not a person from the twilight of the Qin Dynasty!" ”
He identifies people, and he doesn't change them.
Seeing that it was impossible to convince him in a short period of time, as a younger sister who knew her brother's temperament very well, He Zhihua did not force him and left the study.
The sun was not as high as noon, and through the heavy curtains, only a few mottled spots of light fell in the carriage.
Luo Baoying leaned lazily on the wall of the car, half-lowered her eyes and took a nap, the sedan chair swayed slightly on the shoulders of the sedan chair driver, and heard the shouts of the hawkers on both sides of the road, sometimes high and sometimes low, occasionally the smell of oil cake came in, with a thick smoke and fire.
For some reason, she suddenly remembered He Chen's words again.
Once upon a time, she was Luo Zhen's glory, how many men flocked to her, and there was no shortage of vows to marry her, but she was never rare, and now I think back, it seems that there is no young and sincere teenager like He Chen, although he is a little reckless, but sometimes people can't control their feelings, he just said it according to the heart of the moment.
There is always something sweet in my heart, and someone likes her like that.
The corners of her mouth curled.
Outside the window, I suddenly remembered the sound of horses' hooves, and the saluting of Lan Ling and Zifu was also heard.
"I've seen the third son."
Wei Lang?
She sat up straight, amazed at how he could be on the street.
Today is Xiu Mu, and it is not easy to meet him outside.
But he didn't speak.
Neither did she.
The sedan chair was still moving forward, and only the sound of horses' hooves was heard following it, like a shadow.
She finally couldn't help but stretch out her fingers, secretly opened the light blue sedan curtain embroidered with the treasure pattern, as soon as she showed her eyes, she looked at a face that seemed to be smiling, he noticed the movement, and was waiting for her to expose herself early in the morning, Luo Baoying hurriedly retracted.
He spoke this time: "What did you do at He's house?" ”
Luo Baoying didn't want to answer him, but it can be seen that he cares so much, but he wants to be angry with him: "Gongzi He took me to meet Master Tao." ”
"The surname is Tao, could it be that he is a Yale layman?"
"Yes, I'm still playing against him!" Luo Baoying couldn't help but become proud again, "Yale Jushi accompanied me for an hour. ”
The stinky boy is quite capable, and he knows the right medicine, Wei Lang was silent for a moment: "If you had asked me for advice earlier, you would definitely be able to play with him for two hours today." ”
Luo Baoying was speechless, how could he be so confident at any time?
It seems that nothing can irritate him!
She said lightly: "I don't have much interest in chess, only because of Yale Jushi that I have this interest." ”
Wei Lang chuckled: "Yes, then you must also admire Jiang Daru, the people of the time called him Mr. Shenji, and he is now in Baodi." He paused, drew the horse closer, and said outside the sedan chair, "I can take you there now, if you wish." ”
Compared with Yale Jushi, Jiang Liangbi's famous attractions are greater, when Emperor Wenzong personally asked him to go out of the mountain to deal with the king of Nanyang who occupied the six cities, the civil and military officials did not believe in his ability as a literati, but Jiang Liangbi insisted on taking 100,000 soldiers and horses, relying on others thought that he would only "talk on paper" The ability to recover the six cities, and then became famous all over the world. Emperor Wenzong asked him to be the first assistant, he declined, moved to Jiangnan to open a academy, for the Liang to cultivate talents, Wei Lang was worshiped under him, which shows that the famous teacher is not a lie.
There was a half-sound in the car.
Luo Baoying's heart was itchy like a cat, but she didn't want to go with Wei Lang, and when she went, he was very proud.
She bit her lip, but she didn't let go.
But the sound of horses' hooves did not go away, and they were still by her side.
She could imagine him on a horse.
She had always liked his calm and rational mind, and liked his self-confidence in his heart, which no one could shake.
She exhaled softly, trying to calm herself down, but she couldn't, and she wanted to know more and more, what did he like about her? Luo Baoying has it, doesn't Luo Zhen have it? But he was so good to her, even if she was like a hedgehog, always opening her thorns, he didn't stay away from her.
The sedan curtain was gently lifted again, revealing her pink cheeks, and she beckoned to him as if to whisper.
He bent down slightly.
She asked softly, "What do you like about me?" ”
The girl's face was as beautiful as the sunset, and he looked at her as if he saw that she was still a little girl when he first met. Time flies, she grows up day by day, but it also slowly moves his heart, although he doesn't know exactly when it happened, but what does it matter?
His gaze shrouded her, and he told her, "I like them all." ”
The curtain on the other side was lowered suddenly, blocking her face.
