After lunch, Liang Huan was not in a hurry to return to Nanyuan. Instead, he drank tea and played chess with the grand master. Cao Luyun would stay if he had nothing to do.

After Lu Xiu left, there were only three people left in the huge Taishi Mansion. In order to avoid trouble and not appear too deserted, they simply had lunch and dinner in one place.

The Grand Master lowered his hand slightly and looked at the person opposite with a smile: "Fortunately, you are here, otherwise, I would really be alone."

Liang Huan frowned and picked up a piece. He was still considering it and did not answer the question.

On the other hand, Cao Luyun on the side smiled and said: "The Grand Master is worried about Da Sima."

Sitting in the mansion these days, with nothing to do except waiting for the war situation and hearing about the epidemic, Cao Luyun followed her to learn how to mix incense and make fragrant tea...

Liang Huan didn't reject it either. It wasn't because he liked teaching, but it was just convenient for him to watch her.

She had not forgotten that both Lu Huai and Lu Xiu had warned her to be wary of Cao Luyun.

The Grand Master smiled and picked up the tea cup next to him.

Liang Huan gave birth to a son, without raising his eyelids: "My son has traveled thousands of miles, and my mother is worried. She only wants peace."

She may not have understood the Grand Master before, but now——

Liang Huan stared at the fallen chess pieces and laughed silently.

Worries are real, feelings are also real, but some things are destined to be unchangeable.

Liang Huan raised her eyes again and met the Grand Master's smiling eyes, as if he could see through her instantly.

She lowered her eyes, feeling a little confused.

The Grand Master looked at her and pondered for a while before speaking: "This tuberose hairpin was given to Madam when I performed the wedding ceremony."

Liang Huan was stunned for a moment, then looked up again.

The Grand Master frowned, as if recalling the past.

Liang Huan was surprised.

This hairpin was put on by Lu Xiu himself on the second day she came to the Taishi Mansion.

At that time, she thought that he thought she had a murder weapon on her head every day, which was not only unlucky but also disgraceful.

Later, on the night of the fire in the cottage, he asked her why they got married?

But let her understand that the hosta was a gift from him as a token of love.

I never thought about why he gave her a hosta before taking her to see the Grand Master...

Liang Huan lowered his head and closed his eyes. The chess piece in his hand seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, and his heart felt like a big mountain weighing on him.

But this mountain is not made of earth and stone.

Inexplicably, the three of them were silent in tacit agreement.

After a while, I heard the Grand Master say again: "He chose you by himself. Just like a person drinking water, he knows whether it is warm or cold."

He paused for a moment, put down the tea cup, and then looked at Cao Luyun: "Ms. Cao, you were decided jointly by Prime Minister Cao and I, just because the two families have their own needs. We thought about it and thought that there was nothing wrong. , but just missed one person’s heart, I also underestimated his determination.”

"You are indeed innocent in this matter. If you are willing, how about I recognize you as my adopted daughter when he comes back? This is the best way I can think of that can benefit the Cao family and make up for you at the same time. "

His kind and old voice was full of exhaustion and apology.

Liang Huan just stared at the chessboard silently. Considering the honor and status of Taishi, there was no need to lower his posture. Besides, Cao didn't want nothing. This was a relationship of mutual benefit.

But now we are saying this, how can it not be because the depth of love means the plan is far-reaching?

Cao Luyun was stunned for a long time. When he came to his senses, he quickly stood up, raised his hands to his eyebrows, bent down, and said with a trembling voice: "Ayun is really scared."

The Grand Master said: "I will discuss this matter with your father in detail."

Cao Luyun straightened up, his eyes red.

The Grand Master's eyes fell on Liang Huan again, "You guys should go back, I'm a little tired too."

Liang Huan stood up and saluted, and left Beixuan one behind the other with Cao Luyun.

It has been getting colder and cooler lately, and there are already signs of winter. The location of Pingcheng should be colder than Jinye...

"Ji Liang, would you like to sit in the East Pavilion?"

Liang Huan's heart, which was flying high, was pulled back by a soft voice.

Cao Luyun no longer looked like the pitiful innocent look he had just before, but his watery eyes were full of inquiry, making people feel extremely uncomfortable.

Liang Huan met her gaze: "Okay."

In the East Pavilion, she was still in the study room, alone.

Cao Luyun's voice was soft, with a smile on his lips: "I got a new box cover and I'm keeping it. I just want you to see if my tea art is improving?"

Liang Huan smiled slightly as he watched her simmering the tea, with a snow-white wrist covered under her dark green sleeves, carefully flipping the tea cakes, which was pleasing to the eye and a sight to behold.

Cao Luyun has always behaved dignifiedly and is a true noblewoman.

Liang Huan said seriously: "It's enough to please others, but it's not necessary to think privately. If Mrs. Cao really likes tea art, she doesn't have to be too superficial. Tea can also be used to cultivate one's character."

Liang Huan really didn't understand why Cao Luyun insisted on learning this from her. It was obvious that she didn't like it in her heart.

She frowned. If a person forces herself to do something, it must be...

Liang Huan lowered his eyes and smiled.

Not wanting to read any more, he stood up and walked to the bookshelf, scanning the rows.

While Cao Luyun was grinding tea cakes, he glanced at her and said, "I wonder what book General Chariot and Cavalry is looking for?"

""Tai Gong's Six Tao"."

Liang Huan stared at the bookshelf and said casually that according to her search, there was no such book on the bookshelf.

Cao Luyun was surprised: "What kind of book is this?"

Liang Huan paused and narrowed his eyes, looking at a certain place. "It's just about military strategy. Girls don't like to read it."

Cao Luyun shook his head: "I have never heard of it."

Liang Huan looked away and looked at her: "Ancient books are rare, and they were written by Taigong Wang in the early Zhou Dynasty, so they are naturally more precious. If I, Aweng Xi, hadn't collected them, I wouldn't have known about them."

Cao Luyun frowned and wondered: "...Tai Gong Jiang?"

Liang Huan smiled lightly and nodded: "Yes, as we often say, Jiang Taigong fishes for those who are willing to take the bait."

Cao Luyun responded, then stopped talking, lowered his head and concentrated on making tea.

Liang Huan glanced at the bottom of the bookshelf and returned to his seat.

Cao Luyun poured a glass for her: "Still not found?"

Liang Huan took it carefully: "It probably doesn't exist. I'll ask someone later to see if I can find another copy."

Cao Luyun suddenly remembered something and hurriedly put down the cup in his hand: "I almost forgot. Before lunch, I specially made white cocoon candy and prepared it to be eaten with tea. It was kept warm in the kitchen for fear of getting cold. Sit down for a moment and I will come right away. .”

After she finished speaking, she stood up and left the house.

Liang Huan was the only one left in the whole room.

She sat quietly for a while before getting up and walking to the bookshelf again.

After Lu Huai finished talking to her, she looked through the bookshelf several times, but found nothing strange. But today, in an inconspicuous corner on the bottom floor, there was a very small box.

If you don't look carefully, it will be blocked by the thick books next to it.

Fortunately, she was already very familiar with this bookshelf.

Liang Huan slowly squatted down. Is there a possibility that what Lu Huai was looking for was not a book at all?

Her heart was beating so hard that it almost jumped out of her mouth, and she reached for the box with trembling hands.

The box is exquisite, but old, and it doesn't weigh much in your hand.
