MTL - Let Me Pursue You-Chapter 66 066

Yuan Cixian understood Zheng Zhuo's meaning at a glance. There are many guests in the house today, not to mention that the walls have ears. If the two of them leave the table together for too long, they will attract people's attention. Naturally, it is not appropriate to speak now.

Zheng Zhuo wrote this note in a hurry after dismissing the girl, so he didn't have time to say too much in the future, so he only made an appointment with her for a detailed discussion tomorrow.

From this, she also had an answer in her heart: that little lady must have something to do with her or the Yuan family, otherwise Zheng Zhuo would not have said so. Thinking about what she heard just now, the voice was deliberately lowered, pseudo-rough, but still somewhat familiar. She estimated that it was most likely the second wife of the Jiang family, Jiang Birou's younger sister Jiang Bican.

After Jiang Birou was expelled from the Yuan family, Yuan Yuren informed the Jiang family as much as possible, but the Jiang family did not dare to take her back to Chang'an because of the sacred order, so they only sent a nun to take care of her outside the city.

Soon afterwards, the Jiang family fell, and the nun was afraid of being implicated, so she rolled up and ran away, leaving only Jiang Birou alone outside the city. The entire Jiang family was too busy to take care of themselves, so no one remembered her for a while. On the contrary, Yuan Cixian sent to pick branches to see it once.

It wasn't that she regretted being soft-hearted, but seeing that her elder brother was still a little depressed, she was afraid that Jiang Birou's death at this time would make it hard for him to let go, so she gave some food and soup.

Jiang Birou was already weak, but she became very ill after drinking the wine given by Emperor Huining. Yuan Cixian reckoned that she wouldn't be able to survive this winter, and thought that there would be no one in the Jiang family, so she would collect a corpse by then, but unexpectedly, the next time they sent pickers, the place was already empty.

After picking up the branches and asking the neighbors, she found out that Jiang Birou had indeed died of illness, but that night, a young lady came to collect her body.

Yuan Cixian had suspected it was Jiang Bican at that time, but since the Jiang family could not sing, she didn't care much. But at present, it seems that this little girl is quite tenacious, and I don't know what to do.

She couldn't help but sigh. She was not afraid of Jiang Bican's tricks, but this incident made her a little depressed - as if all kinds of dreams were inevitable fates, even this time, Lu Shiqing did everything possible to help her bring down the Jiang family, but Jiang Bican and Zheng Zhuo's involvement Still unavoidable.

For a moment she thought pessimistically that the fate of the Yuan family might be the same.

Yuan Cixian kicked a small stone all the way back to the back garden, but soon lost her energy to be depressed again, because she heard Lu Shiqing's voice from afar. After she had only walked for a while, the banquet seemed to have changed its direction, from poetry to discussion.

She saw Lu Shiqing standing beside the long table with his hands behind his back, and smiled at a young man on the other side of the Quxi River, "Brother Dou's words are wrong."

What classic is this talking about? She returned to her seat as unobtrusively as possible, but as soon as she sat down, she saw a young lady next door leaning over and whispering to her: "The county lord has missed the show."

Yuan Cixian looked at Lu Shiqing, who was standing aside discussing scriptures with others, without even looking at her, and asked in a low voice, "What's the fun?"

The little lady said quietly: "Have you seen those red-faced gentlemen in front of you? There are eight of them in general, all of whom were angered by Lu Shilang. After you left, Lu Shilang didn't know why, but he seemed very uncomfortable. Happy, talking to eight of them in one breath, making them speechless. I really feel sorry for these young gentlemen..." Enduring the nameless anger for no reason.

Yuan Cixian couldn't help being taken aback, and looked up at Lu Shiqing, who seemed to be very tall. Seeing that his face was indeed very ugly, he sneered and said, "Brother Dou's words are even more wrong. It is true that the sages said: Xianyi color. But Brother Dou has violated the taboo of scholars who take the meaning out of words."

The young man surnamed Dou on the opposite side seemed unconvinced, and seriously argued: "The so-called virtuous change of color means that one refers to seeing a virtuous person and abandoning female sex; the other refers to treating a wife by focusing on her inner character rather than her external appearance. This has been the case since ancient times. Interpretation, why do you take the words literally? I am afraid Lu Shilang is making too much sense." After he finished speaking, he couldn't help but glance at Yuan Cixian.

Yuan Cixian touched her nose in embarrassment.

Oh, she is indeed a bit pretty, and Lu Shiqing likes her, but she didn't teach him to be so pretentious.

Lu Shiqing smiled, also glanced at Yuan Cixian, and then asked: "Brother Dou, what does the 'color' in 'Xianxian Yise' refer to? Woman, female color, male and female color? I'm afraid this is too narrow As a descendant, reading and studying the classics should return to history and fulfill the holy meaning. Brother Dou misinterpreted the meaning of the ancestors from the perspective of the present world, and Lu Mou is being polite when he says that it is just a literal meaning."

"In ancient times, the relationship between husband and wife was the beginning of human relations and the foundation of kingship. As a sage, how could Confucius violate human nature? Humans have five senses, eyes, ears, mouth, nose, and body, and everything they perceive is 'color' ’, even all kinds of things such as attitude and behavior are also ‘color’. Brother Dou’s discussion of female **** is not only one-sided, but also contemptuous of all the young ladies present.”

Mr. Dou, surnamed Dou, was taken aback when he was told, and the young talents around him were also taken aback, as if they had never heard of this kind of interpretation, and felt novelty and suspicion at the same time.

Yuan Cixian glanced at Lu Shiqing.

This mouth is really good at speaking. It can be said that talented people come out from generation to generation, should the ancestors make way for the younger generations?

Lu Shiqing continued: "Let's talk about female sex. Appearance and virtue are naturally foreign things, but if you don't really experience it, just listen to what others say, how can you really know which is more important? Just like Brother Dou, blindly belittle foreign things, and the blind Regardless of the appearance, how is it any different from a hypocrite who is full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, but actually deceives the world? If you have never picked it up in ancient times, you are not qualified to talk about letting go." He smiled, "Of course, Brother Dou is young, so it's no wonder It’s still a little bit of experience in the world. But if you want to talk to Lu Mou about the importance of virtue and women’s sex, please understand it before discussing it.”

There was an uproar all around.

Wow, this Lu Shiqing is really shameless, relying on his fiancée to be so embarrassing. He was the only one who picked it up in the presence of Ganqing, so he is qualified to talk about putting it down?

But what he said was irrefutable. After all, I searched Chang'an, and I couldn't find anyone who could match the face of Lancang County Lord. If Lu Shiqing said that he had never experienced real female sex, I'm afraid there would be no one here who would understand.

The opponent's face was flushed with the surname Dou, and he felt as if his chest had been pierced by a sharp knife, and he almost couldn't hold back to cover it with his hand.

He thought, probably this is... the power of a sage.

He couldn't help admiring deeply, cupped his hands and said: "Listening to your words is better than reading ten years of books. Dou will always remember Lu Shilang's teachings, and if he succeeds in his studies someday, he will definitely come to discuss with you again!"

Lu Shiqing waved his hand to signal that he is not welcome, and then returned to his seat gracefully.

The corners of Yuan Cixian's mouth twitched slightly, she tugged on his sleeve, and asked in a low voice: "Are you serious? Why do I sound so..." How can I be so misleading?

Of course Lu Shiqing was not serious. Who asked Yuan Cixian to leave the table to chase Zheng Zhuo and abandon him here. He felt dissatisfied, of course he had to find someone to vent his anger on.

It wasn't that he said that only nine of them were broken, and if she came back a little later, everyone present would suffer.

But after all, Lu Shiqing didn't want to admit that he was talking nonsense, and said solemnly: "It's serious."

Yuan Cixian was confused by his seemingly powerful words just now, she said "Oh" in doubt, and then asked: "It seems that you will be the jackpot of today's cup feast. I will be very busy in this way. "

He was still angry at first, when he heard the words, he asked strangely: "What are you busy with?"

She rested her chin and said in distress: "Next year it will be your turn to host the banquet. With so many guests coming to our house, am I going to be overwhelmed?"

Lu Shiqing was taken aback for a moment, and then realized that her words "in our house" meant that the jealousy and annoyance disappeared in an instant, and the corners of her mouth could not help but slowly raised a little bit, and she tilted her head to cover up the uncontrollable excitement quietly.

Yuan Cixian secretly glanced at him sideways.

Whoops, it's so cute.

At the banquet that day, Lu Shiqing deservedly won the first place, and then sent Yuan Cixian back to Shengyefang first, and then went back to the house silently.

The next day, February 15, is the Flower Festival, which is a good day for people to go outing together and enjoy the red, but it also coincides with Wang Chao, and the court will not give a holiday, so Lu Shiqing does not go out, which just saves Yuan Cixian Explain to him that you have an appointment with him.

Yuan Cixian went out of the city in a carriage, and arrived at Yanxingmen on time at Chenshi, just passing by Zheng Zhuo's carriage side by side. There were a lot of people around, and the two of them knew each other, they didn't call to stop the carriage, and continued to go straight eastward, as if they really just happened to pass by.

After passing the Lu Bridge, the pedestrians on the spring tour gradually dispersed, Zheng Zhuo called to stop the carriage first, and then went up to an inconspicuous mountain nearby.

Yuan Cixian asked the carriage to drive a little further, and then walked back to the mountain as if enjoying the scenery.

Looking at the scenery in Chunshan is a common thing in Huachao, and the two of them acted like this, it seems that they deliberately met each other, even if they were seen by others, they would not be suspicious. After such a lot of tossing, Yuan Cixian finally met Zheng Zhuo at a stone pavilion on the top of the mountain.

This stone pavilion was built in a remote place, it seems to have been there for some years, it looks quite dilapidated, and it is backed by rocks, facing the cliff on both sides, if someone approaches, they will be found by the people in the pavilion immediately, so it is considered very safe.

After making such a judgment, Yuan Cixian sat down beside the pavilion with peace of mind.

Zheng Zhuo is a gentleman, because he is a lonely man and a widow at the moment, so he deliberately left her the side of the backing rock, while he sat on the dangerous cliff to show that he did not intend to offend.

He smiled and said: "Please trouble the county magistrate to make this trip. The city of Chang'an has been covered with eyeliner recently, and there are many people outside during the Huachao Festival, so it's not easy to attract attention."

Of course Yuan Cixian knew that King Ping hadn't left the capital yet, so he might be staring at Zheng Zhuo and Yuan's family very hard.

She smiled back at him: "Your Highness, you are welcome, I was the one who wanted to ask you for news. You were supposed to be chanting scriptures at Wangji Temple today, and it was hard work to sneak out."

Zheng Zhuo smiled loudly: "I feel drowsy every time I recite it, and I have to thank the county lord for saving me today."

After a few polite words, Zheng Zhuo restrained his smile, and was about to talk about the topic, but suddenly glanced at the mountain path, and was slightly taken aback.

Yuan Cixian followed his gaze to look back, and saw a man in a black toga with a wooden hairpin coming from the entrance of the mountain pass. The bright spring light made his silver mask shine brightly, and the mountain flowers fell behind him. It's almost eye-catching.

Yuan Cixian was also taken aback, and asked Zheng Zhuo: "Why is Mr. Xu here?"

Zheng Zhuo smiled helplessly, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

That's right, why did Lu Shiqing come here?
