During the first few years when Luo Qingrou was trapped in Jinling, she resented it. She even felt that Luo Qingzhi must have lived a carefree life in Yuzhou.
But five years ago, news of the battle in Pengcheng reached Jinling, and Gao Yan took her to Yuzhou, almost with the intention of attending a funeral.
She looked at Luo Qingzhi lying on the bed covered with injuries. The military doctors were changing basins of blood and water. She knelt down on the spot. Then, when they were cleaning her wounds and applying medicine, she realized that her sister
It turned out that this was how we lived.
After Luo Qingzhi woke up and saw her appearing in the camp, she ignored the wounds that were still bleeding and began to plead guilty to Gao Yan.
"If I don't investigate... I'll lose Pengcheng. I'm willing to accept any punishment. But this matter has nothing to do with... Ah Rou. Please let her go."
Luo Qingrou didn't know how to describe her feelings at that time. She only remembered that her sister pulled her behind her. She had not yet recovered her strength, but the hand holding her was extremely strong.
After coming back to her senses, Luo Qingrou said: "Sister, I hope you can be happy, in the true sense of the word."
Luo Qingzhi didn't know why, but nodded.
When I came to the study, I was surprised to see Gao Zhen.
Luo Qingzhi asked: "What are you doing here?"
Gao Zhen replied: "Waiting for you."
When I was confused, I suddenly remembered that I asked him to think about what he wanted before going out and let him know in the evening.
After predicting the other party's intention, Luo Qingzhi calmly asked: "Have you thought clearly?"
Gao Zhen said "hmm".
Luo Qingzhi hung up her coat, sat opposite him, and asked, "What do you want?"
"...Want you..."
Such an answer bothered Luo Qingzhi, but she didn't want to have too many twists and turns with Gao Zhen. She said, "You want me? Don't you want the throne?"
Gao Zhen said: "The throne? I am just a commoner now. The throne is too far away for me." He glanced at Luo Qingzhi and said, "It is more practical to seize the person in front of you."
Luo Qingzhi examined these words and remained silent. Seeing that the person in front of her was very determined, she asked again: "You planted the thyme." This was an affirmative sentence.
"......no."
She asked: "Your Highness, let me ask you again, what do you want?"
"..."
"I want you." Gao Zhen replied.
"..."
Luo Qingzhi, who was silent again, thought about it and said, "Okay."
The word "good" contains too many meanings. Gao Zhen didn't understand it and was eager to get further answers.
"Can I go to the selection?"
Luo Qingzhi nodded and said, "Yes, okay."
"But the Ministry of Rites should have already submitted the list." Gao Zhen said.
"I will take care of it, just feel free to prepare." Luo Qingzhi replied.
Luo Qingzhi continued: "You can come in and out of the study at will, and you can also use the martial arts field in the backyard. If you want any help, you can send anyone in the house, but..." She paused for a while and said seriously: "
Your Highness, you have to come to me by yourself."
Gao Zhen was a little confused and a little excited.
Luo Qingzhi's cold voice came again.
"Luo Jinchao, there are many people in Mandu City who want me. If you want me, you must be qualified to want me. Do you understand?"
Gao Zhen nodded solemnly and said, "I must be the one who can compete with you."
On the second day, everyone in the Princess's Mansion received Luo Qingzhi's order. Everyone felt that this young man named Luo Jinchao was the future Commander-in-Chief, and they did not dare to neglect him at all.
When Zhixin came to the study to look for Luo Qingzhi, she was talking to Feng Zinan. Zhixin sat aside and listened to the conversation between the two.
"Young Master, Luo Jinchao's name has been added."
Luo Qingzhi nodded and said: "I don't know how good his martial arts is, you have time to find out."
"yes."
Hearing this, Zhi Xin joined the conversation.
"Arlo, didn't you not allow him to participate in the selection?"
Luo Qingzhi said: "Blindly blocking will only have the opposite effect. This time, your majesty will let me choose between the two sons of the Jin family to recruit a son-in-law. However, I don't want to. Let's see, if he really has the ability to enter the ten
A, he is indeed the best choice. He is alone and has no relatives from his mother's clan, so he is a very suitable county horse."
Zhi Xin shook her head and said: "You are like this, I don't know whether Gao Langjun is lucky or unlucky. I just came out of the yard and you can see that people are happily carrying books into their rooms."
Luo Qingzhi said: "Be careful about how you address him from now on. Don't call him Gao Langjun. His current identity is Erlang of the Luo family in Yizhou, and his name is Jinchao."
"I know, I know." Zhi Xin said.
Zhi Xin sighed deeply and said: "Forget it, I really don't understand the affairs of the court. I'd better go and mix some makeup and give Luo Erlang a good disguise."
After Zhi Xin left, Feng Zinan looked at his young master and asked tentatively: "Why didn't the young master tell the military doctor that our move was to test whether the prince had any contact with the former Qin Dynasty?"
"Zhi Xin has a simple mind. Such things will only make her upset." Luo Qingzhi said.
Feng Zinan nodded, agreeing with Luo Qingzhi's statement that Zhixin really had no scheming and did everything based on her heart.
Luo Qingzhi said: "Send a message to Yuzhou and ask Mr. to come to Beijing?"
Feng Zinan said: "Yes."
Luo Qingzhi continued to give instructions and said: "If you mobilize a team of people and choose the fastest horse, you may not be able to pick up Mr. to Beijing in three days."
"yes."
Luo Qingzhi continued to ask: "How is the time for the civil and military examinations determined?"
Feng Zinan said: "The literary examination is scheduled for the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, and the martial arts examination is scheduled for the ninth day. Your Majesty wants to decide on the candidates before the Lantern Festival, and issue an edict to grant marriage directly after the start of the dynasty."
Luo Qingzhi said: "Today is the seventh day of the twelfth lunar month, which is exactly January. Can he do it?"
Feng Zinan asked: "Young Master, are you asking me?"
Luo Qingzhi asked: "...Do you think he can do it?"
Feng Zinan thought for a while and said: "According to my information, Luo Erlang has not had anyone to teach him in the past ten years. Literature should be difficult. As for martial arts, although his subordinates have not competed with him yet, looking at his
The body and bones should also be difficult. Therefore, my subordinates feel that Luo Erlang will not be able to enter the top ten."
Luo Qingzhi said: "Then if he enters, there will definitely be a problem."
"You can say that." Feng Zinan replied.
Zhixin returned to the yard and happened to pass by Gao Zhen's room. He placed his desk in front of the window. The books he had just borrowed from the study were piled on both sides of the desk like high walls, and he was buried between the two walls.
Studying hard.
She leaned against the window and said, "Erlang, can you finish studying so many books in one month?"
Gao Zhen raised his head, his eyes blurred, and said, "Erlang?"
Zhi Xin said: "A Luo didn't tell you that you are now the second son of the Luo family?"
Gao Zhen said "Oh", as if he finally remembered, nodded and said, "I told you, but I just haven't gotten used to it."
"Then you get used to it from now on and don't reveal your secret." Zhi Xin said.
Gao Zhen nodded.
Zhixin was about to leave when Gao Zhen stopped her and said, "Sister Zhixin, can you help me?"
"Don't ask me to explain these books to you. I don't know how." Zhi Xin said.
"No." Gao Zhen shook his head and continued: "I want my sister to tell me the time when Zinnia attacks each time."
Suddenly, Zhi Xin became interested and joked: "Why, you have reached a consensus."
Gao Zhen lowered his head and sighed, saying, "No, but I am Aluo's first man, so she must always want me."
Gao Zhen's words made Zhi Xin think about it, and she thought to herself, "This Erlang looks harmless to humans and animals. It may not be him who poisoned him. Maybe he wants A Luo too much. Why don't we help him?"
"Sister Zhixin? Sister?" Gao Zhen looked at Zhixin who had been in a daze and called him several times.
Zhi Xin came back to her senses and said: "Of course. Under normal circumstances, A Luo's poison attacks once every five days, but if there is a trigger, it may not happen."
"Introduction?" Gao Zhen asked.
Zhixin pointed to the sachet on his waist and said, "Osmanthus fragrant."
Gao Zhen immediately looked at the sachet on his waist, quickly took it off and said, "This is what my mother-in-law gave me. I don't know..."
Zhi Xin looked at Gao Zhen who was almost crying in front of her, and secretly confirmed Gao Zhen's affection for Luo Qingzhi.
"It's okay, it's okay. Now that you know it, don't wear it anymore." Zhi Xin comforted.
Zhixin thought, helping people to the end, and continued: "As for the selection, in the literary test, among the people I know, the most educated person is Aluo."
"But Aluo won't help me." Gao Zhen said, then lowered his eyes.
Zhi Xin said: "Er Lang, do you know that a martyr girl is afraid of pestering Lang, so if you pester her, A Luo will be the most soft-hearted."
Gao Zhen thought for a while and nodded.
"As for the martial arts test, we can only find Feng Zinan. However, since this person is inexperienced, it will be difficult."
"..."
Gao Zhen was a little discouraged after listening to Zhi Xin's words. Zhi Xin quickly comforted him and said, "However, Feng Zinan listened to A Luo the most. Didn't A Luo say that you can ask anyone for help?"
Gao Zhen's face looked better instantly, and Zhi Xin added: "But, Erlang, you, you haven't practiced martial arts at all before, I'm afraid it will be difficult."
Gao Zhen was a little discouraged and said, "Sister Zhixin, are you here to encourage me or to discourage me?"
Following Zhi Xin's suggestion, Gao Zhen came to the study to find Luo Qingzhi.
He pointed to his waist, which was empty. He said, "Aluo, I didn't know that the sachet would cause you to have an attack. I have already taken it off."
Luo Qingzhi looked at it and found that there was indeed no sachet anymore. She said lightly "hmm" to indicate that she understood. Then she continued to look at the information about the ministers in her hand.
Realizing that Gao Zhen hadn't left yet, he asked, "What? Is there anything else?"
Gao Zhen said: "I can't understand those books. Aluo can help me explain them."
Luo Qingzhi sighed and said, "I remember I told you yesterday that you have to come here by yourself."
"But, Aluo, you also said that I can ask anyone in the mansion for help. Aluo... aren't you from the princess's mansion?" Gao Zhen retorted.
Luo Qingzhi was speechless for a moment, stood up, took a few more books from the bookshelf, handed them to him and said: "Studying is like building a house, the foundation must be solid. Although the books you chose this morning are Chinese classics, what do they say to you?
, it’s too obscure, please read these books.” This chapter has been completed!
