The sun was setting in the west, and its rays of light dyed the entire city of Chang'an into a sea of fiery red. It was almost dusk, and passers-by hurriedly returning home were coming and going in the streets and alleys. In this bustling crowd,
Li Zhen, dressed in casual clothes, shuttled among the crowd casually, feeling very relaxed. To be honest, although Li Zhen had traveled in plain clothes a lot over the years, she always came and went in a hurry. She had never been so carefree. Of course, he
She was free and happy, but she suffered a lot from Chen Liang and a few other personal guards who followed her. Without him, it was impossible to guarantee Li Zhen's absolute safety in such a crowded and bumping scene, but she didn't dare to remind her.
Li Zhen could only follow as closely as possible, and then try to block the passers-by who accidentally bumped into her. She was very busy.
Seeing the nervous look on his bodyguards, Li Zhen secretly laughed in her heart, but she did not stop him. She let Chen Liang and others go about their business. Without him, the bodyguards were all good warriors on the battlefield, and fighting on the battlefield was enough.
Although Li Zhen had already mobilized a large number of people from the "Rising Sun" to supplement his own bodyguards, novices still accounted for the majority.
Most of them can give these people a chance to exercise, so why not do it.
Li Zhen and his party did not walk very fast. After lingering on the street for more than half an hour, they finally arrived outside Mo Li's courtyard when it was getting dark. The guard captain Chen Liang was about to knock on the door, but Li Zhen was busy
He waved his hand to stop Chen Liang's movement. At this time, there was a faint sound of Lang Lang reciting poetry in the courtyard: "He is a person with a hard heart. He has passed away from my beam and cannot enter my door."
Yi Whoyun Cong, Wei Bao Yun..."
Li Zhen was a well-educated person. When he heard it, he immediately knew that this poem was "Who's Si" in the "Book of Songs". It was about two old friends who lost their friendship because of a small misunderstanding.
The poem itself is not difficult, but when you read it at this time, it is a different story.
Uh-huh, I bet this guy knew we were coming, ha, that’s interesting! Li Zhen listened with a smile for a while, until she finished reading the poem, she shook her sleeves, walked forward, and knocked on the door of Mo Mansion in person
After a while, I heard the door knocker ringing, and a childish face stretched out from the crack of the door. When I saw Li Zhen's smiling face, I was stunned for a moment, and then I saw Nalong standing behind Li Zhen.
, his face suddenly changed, and he said unceremoniously: "My young master will not see guests." As soon as he finished speaking, he retreated and tried to shut out Li Zhen and his party.
Oh, the little guy really has a bit of a temper, interesting! Li Zhen's mind was moving very fast, but his hands were even faster. In the blink of an eye, he was stuck on the door. No matter how hard the book boy tried, he couldn't defeat Li Zhen.
Shen Li was so anxious that he was covered with sweat. He shouted anxiously: "Let go, let go quickly. How can anyone come to the door like this? I have already said that my young master will not see guests, let go quickly!"
However, Li Zhen was not in a hurry and kept her hands motionless. Even though Mo Xiang had used up all the strength to suck milk, she couldn't move. She was so anxious that she screamed. In the panic, she suddenly heard a gentle cry.
A voice rang out: "Mo Xiang, why is it so noisy?"
"Sir, look at this guy, he's such a scumbag!" As soon as Mo Xiang heard the words behind her, she immediately shouted as if she was expecting reinforcements. The sense of grievance in her words was so strong that it made people laugh.
But when there was a sound of footsteps, a scholar in white floated out. Although he was not handsome, his eyes were piercing. When he saw Li Zhen, he did not make any unnecessary movements. He just smiled and cupped his hands and said: "Little
The child is ignorant, Your Highness, please forgive me."
Li Zhen was not surprised that Mo Li could recognize her. Even though she was wearing casual clothes, with her figure there, there were not many people in Changan who could impersonate her. Therefore, when she saw Mo Li smiling
Greeting herself, Li Zhen just smiled indifferently and said: "It's okay, I don't care. I have admired your name for a long time, but it's just been a casual relationship. Now it's my honor to meet you."
"Your Majesty, you're welcome. My humble residence is humble. Please don't blame me, please come inside." Mo Li waved his hand politely.
Haha, that's right, neither arrogant nor humble, nor pretentious, just a bit pretentious. Li Zhen immediately had a high opinion of Mo Li's ability, no longer being polite, smiled, stretched out her hand and said: "Please." Li Zhen couldn't.
Without further words, he just nodded and walked into the courtyard gate ahead of him.
The burrow is really just a burrow. Although it is kept very tidy, it can still be seen that the courtyard has been in disrepair for a long time. A lot of the white dust on the walls has fallen off and is very mottled, making it look a bit dilapidated. However, the courtyard
It is not small, covering an area of thirty acres. However, in the huge Sanjin courtyard, there are only two masters and servants living there. This really makes Li Zhen very confused. Without him, Mo Li is the director of the Imperial College.
Although his status and official rank are not high, he is just a Qingshui official from the eighth rank, his salary is not low. Even if Chang'an is expensive, Mo Li's salary is quite enough to support a family. There is no reason to live longer.
You have to be like the Puritans, it’s okay if you don’t have servants, but if you’re in your twenties and you don’t even have a wife, that’s unreasonable, isn’t it?
Although Li Zhen was suspicious, she did not ask about it. She followed Mo Li with a smile all the way, saying casual polite words while secretly observing everything in the yard. Just before entering the hall, Li Zhen
, something fell into Li Zhen's eyes. Suddenly, Li Zhen's eyes suddenly lit up, and her heart moved. She vaguely guessed the origin of Li Zhen, but she didn't say anything more, just smiled lightly.
After walking into the hall, after a while, Mo Xiang, who was looking unhappy, made tea and reluctantly served tea to Li Zhen and others. He snorted coldly and walked out without saying hello.
The angry look in the hall immediately made Li Zhen burst into laughter.
"Your Highness, please forgive me. That child has a bad temper. It's hard for the lower officials to do anything to him." Seeing Li Zhen smiling happily, Mo Li also laughed with him for a while, picked up the tea bowl, made a gesture of invitation, and said calmly.
.
Li Zhen laughed loudly and said: "I admire this true nature and love very much. If there is a scholar like this, you must also be a man of love. I have taken the liberty to come here, and I hope Haihan will do it one or two."
"The prince has given you too much praise. I am just a low-level official. I really don't dare to praise the prince so much. Please have tea with me, please." Li Zhen replied calmly, not feeling excited about Li Zhen's praise.
Li Zhen smiled and picked up the tea bowl. She just took a sip and almost vomited it out. Apart from that, Li Zhen has always been good at tea, and what she drank was the best tea. To Li Zhen, the bowl in her hand was simply the same.
There was no difference between the poison and the poison. Fortunately, there was not much entrance, so I swallowed it reluctantly. I frowned slightly and put down the tea bowl. I didn't bother to touch it any more. I looked at Mo Li and said, "Sir, he is from Xiangfan."
?I heard that your accent seems to have some southern accent. Is your guess correct?"
Li Zhen glanced at Li Zhen strangely, smiled and said, "I'm afraid you may have misunderstood. Your Majesty is from Shandong. Although I have been to Xiangfan, I am not from there."
"Oh, it seems that I am rash to say so. Haha, don't blame me, don't blame me." Li Zhen smiled and said: "So, it seems that Mr. has been to many places. I often hear Mr. Nalong mention Mr. Mo.
He is a great talent. I think Mr. Lai must have traveled thousands of miles and written thousands of books. This is quite reasonable.
A flash of light flashed in Mo Li's eyes, and he immediately said with a smile: "Your Majesty, I am wrong about the award. I am ashamed that I cannot deserve it. I am ashamed, I am ashamed."
Haha, this kid must have figured it out. Hey, it’s interesting that he can still keep his composure at this moment! Li Zhen is such a shrewd person. The strange color in Mo Li’s eyes was naturally not concealed from Li Zhen’s observation. In his heart
The head understood that the other party already knew that he had seen through his origins, but because Mo Li could still hold up the scene now, he immediately looked up, laughed, and stopped talking. He just stared at Mo Li with interest, his face
It was full of weird smiles.
"Your Majesty is smart. I don't know how your Majesty figured it out. Please enlighten me." Mo Li couldn't hide, but he asked straightforwardly.
Before Li Zhen could answer, Nalong, who was confused, hurriedly said: "Your Highness, Brother Mo, what kind of riddles are you playing? Why am I getting more and more confused the more I listen."
Li Zhen smiled silently, and Li Zhen glanced at Nalong with a slight guilt, sighed and said: "Brother Nalong, it's all my fault. You and I have known each other for many years, but my little brother has never stated his life experience clearly.
There are huge obstacles, and I can’t express my words. Please forgive me, brother.”
Although Li Zhen did not explicitly say what was wrong with his life experience, since Nalong was valued by Li Zhen, he was certainly not an ordinary person. After hearing the sound, he knew what it meant, and he pondered for a moment: "Since I can't say,
Then there is no need to say it, the prince has always been magnanimous and will not care." Nalong also had something to say, which meant that as long as Li Zhen could take refuge in Li Zhen, Li Zhen would take care of everything, so he advised Li Zhen not to do it.
Missed this opportunity.
Li Zhen naturally understood what Nalong meant, but he didn't say anything more about it. He just smiled miserably, turned around, stared at Li Zhen with shining eyes and said, "Your Majesty hasn't answered someone's question yet."
Hehe, if we didn't show our skills, you would think we were deceived. Li Zhen changed her mind and said with a smile: "I am good at martial arts and understand martial arts. As long as it is shooting skills, I will never be able to hide it from my eyes. That wooden target outside the yard
The gun marks on my body can only be made by one type of gun, and this is one of them. Sir, he walks very steadily, and he obviously has some gong on him. There are only two of you, master and servant, in this courtyard. Obviously, those gun marks can only be made by Mr.
The second reason is that although the gentleman's accent is mostly Shandong accent, it still has the sound of Xiangfan. The third reason is that with these three things, if I still can't guess who the gentleman is, then I can't guess who the gentleman is.
I am not qualified to invite you to teach in the government, what do you think, sir?"
"Haha... Okay! It is said that His Royal Highness the King of Yue is the current wise king. Today, when I see him, he is truly worthy of his reputation. I admire him, I admire him." Li Li clapped his hands and laughed, but the laughter was full of desolation... dd
