After marriage and marriage, I became the favorite of the group
Chapter 24 A Vinegar Pig Drooled Enviously
Master Ruan had a hard time accepting the fact that He Lianzhu was the king of Jiwu, and Ulan was his entourage.
King Jiwu is a child, how did he choose the king?Is this reasonable?
He Lianzhu was three years younger than Ruan Jiu, not as tall as him, and certainly not yet in power. With such a king, he didn't even have much money, how could he afford Ruan Jiu?What's more, he himself is at the mercy of others, how can he protect Ruan Jiu?
Master Ruan glanced at He Lianzhu, and sighed almost inaudibly.
He Lianzhu knew what he was thinking, a little unconvinced, stepped forward quickly, and pushed Ulan away.
He shouldn't have let Ruan Jiu bring Ulan over, he should have brought Geturu here.
Just as he was about to hold Ruan Jiu's hand, Ruan Jiu ran away.
"Wow!" Ruan Jiu quickly ran forward, threw himself into the group of friends, and hugged one of them.
Xiao Mingyuan and others also returned an extremely warm hug, and then surrounded him affectionately and went in.
Ulan subconsciously glanced at the king, and the king didn't look very well.
He is smoking.
Sitting in front of the hall, and said a few polite words, Master Ruan glanced at Ruan Jiu, couldn't help laughing, and waved his hands: "Go down and play, me and..." When he looked at He Lianzhu, he said He restrained his smile: "The king will talk again."
Ruan Jiu hesitated: "Father, can you tell me anything?"
He mainly felt that He Lianzhu accompanied him when the empress dowager and empress dowager summoned him last time, and He Lianzhu stood in front of him from the beginning to the end, speaking for him.
Now that the roles have been changed, it's his father's turn to talk to He Lianzhu, he is a man of loyalty, and he definitely can't leave He Lianzhu here alone.
I don't want Master Ruan to widen his eyes when he heard his words.
Well, in just a few days, I learned to fight against his father for the sake of He Lianzhu.
Rebel!
Master Ruan waved his hand, "Pull it down."
"Huh? Dad?"
So Ruan Jiu's friends moved him out of the hall just like that.
Master Ruan retreated from the crowd, stroked his beard, and looked at He Lianzhu.
He Lianzhu sat up straight unconsciously, even breathing lightly.Ruan Jiu's father was not very friendly to him.
Master Ruan made a "please" gesture to him, but his tone was very serious: "Tell me briefly about your career plan and life plan."
It doesn't feel good to be scrutinized by others, and He Lianzhu feels that he is competing for the position of soft-hearted husband-in-law.
If he doesn't answer well, it seems that Master Ruan will take Ruan Jiu away at any time.
He blinked his big sincere eyes: "I..."
Don't come here, this is useful to Ruan Jiu, but not to Ruan Jiu's stern and selfless father.
"Your Majesty, don't blame me for offending me. I am also eager to love my son. Now Your Majesty is still young. If you want to be a good Majesty, I am afraid that there are many things in the previous court. The most urgent thing is to regain power. If you need money to deal with it, you can just ask. .”
"How? How sure are you? How many years will it take to accomplish this?"
He Lianzhu was a little nervous: "I have a plan, don't worry, I will definitely take care of Ruan Jiu."
At the other end, Ruan Jiu was carried down by his friends, carried all the way back to the room, and thrown on the bed.
"Leave the door on."
Ruan Jiu sat up quickly: "Huh?"
Then I was blocked by some friends.He lay back: "Ah, I'm dead."
Several people dragged him up.
Wei Xu said: "What's the matter? Is it fun to make love?"
Xiao Mingyuan said sourly: "It must be fun, you didn't see that he and He Lianzhu were so close to each other just now, and left us all aside."
Ruan Jiu stared: "How can I?" He stretched out his hand to wrap His Highness Aojiao's shoulder: "Silly brother, I will always have you in my brother's eyes."
In the royal family tree, his name is before Xiao Mingyuan.
Xiao Mingyuan couldn't hear him say this the most, so he shook off his hand: "Get rolling."
Yan Ning sat down on the couch, and asked gently: "How is it? Are you still used to it in the Jiwu Palace? Are the Jiwu people easy to get along with? You haven't been bullied, have you?"
Ruan Jiu shook his head: "Where is it? It's good that I didn't bully them."
When he said this, several friends looked at him, seeing that his expression did not seem to be fake, so they believed him a little bit.
"Really, Jiwu's snacks are delicious, and you don't have to do it yourself." Ruan Jiu pursed his lips as if reminiscing, "There is a person who can squeeze two walnuts with one hand, so cool."
The friends frowned deeply and asked suspiciously, "Your concubine?"
"No, it's not Ulan, it's my third brother Tulu." Ruan Jiu got off the couch, "Let's go, stop talking about this, go out and play!"
Ruan Jiu and his friends flew kites in the yard for a while, and when the sun rose, they thought it was too hot, so they hid in the room.
The cook made jelly to cool off the heat, and a group of teenagers made a big bowl each, and finally lay down on the couch and rubbed their stomachs.
After a while, Ruan Jiu sat up and kicked their legs: "Get up and play, I finally saw you once."
"Okay, okay." They also sat up with their hands together, "What are you playing?"
Ruan Jiu took out the cards he carried with him from his sleeve: "Here."
The friends exchanged helpless glances with each other.
"That's what he likes to play."
"Who says no? If I win all the time, I like to play too. He cries and says he's going to lose every time, but he wins every time."
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Ruan Jiu gave them a push, "Hurry up, you are all playing with me today, and you can play whatever I say."
"Okay, the princess has an order, so don't dare to disobey." Everyone turned their heads and asked the attendant to bring in the small case on the table, "Hurry up, the princess will be angry later!"
Ruan Jiu flipped his palms and pushed them all off the bed.
It is enough for three people to play the leaf card, so Wei Xu and Xiao Mingyuan are on the side, so as to make up three parties.
They were playing cards, and Ulan was sitting next to Ruan Jiu, concentrating on helping him peel melons into little rabbits. While Ruan Jiu was playing cards, he could eat melons as soon as he stretched out his hand.
A few friends suddenly understood the benefits of having a concubine.
So this is the happiness that Ruan Jiu can have?
Drooling enviously.
After playing cards all afternoon, the sun gradually darkened, and He Lianzhu came to look for Ruan Jiu.
In fact, Ruan Jiu sent someone to look for him, and he said it was all right, he just had a few words with Master Ruan, and Ruan Jiu didn't bother them anymore.
Now it seems that this is quite a lot to say.
He Lianzhu walked up to Ruan Jiu and reminded him in a low voice, "Ruan Jiu, it's time to go back."
Ruan Jiu said "ah" in embarrassment, and glanced at the cards in his hand: "I haven't finished playing yet."
"Then wait until you finish this game..." He Lianzhu met his big watery eyes and paused, "Have dinner here."
Ruan Jiu just looked at him like that.
"Do you still want to live here?"
Ruan Jiu nodded.
Although He Lianzhu didn't like it very much, he finally agreed: "Okay, then stay here for one night, and I'll let them go back and talk about it."
Ruan Jiu was still looking at him, so he changed his words again: "Stay for a few days, several days."
Ruan Jiu responded with an "Aww", and patted the seat beside him: "Come, sit down." He was very conscientious: "You are not allowed to learn to play cards, you haven't grown up yet."
"Okay." He Lianzhu stood next to him.
Ruan Jiulai, as if returning to the wedding night, refused to leave in the post house, playing with his friends every day.
The only difference is that he has a concubine to peel fruit for him to eat.
In the Jiwu Palace, the Empress Dowager did not urge him, but the Empress Dowager sent someone to pass on a message, and stabbed him several times overtly and secretly. Anyway, Ruan Jiu didn't understand, so he handed it over to He Lianzhu.
A few days later, before He Lianzhu was in a hurry, Master Ruan got angry first.
"Every day is not playing cards, or staying up late to read scripts, eating and not moving, I think you are going to die suddenly." Master Ruan pulled him off the couch, "Get out and play."
A group of people reluctantly went out.
Naturally, the streets of Jiwu are not as prosperous as Daliang. If you walk in a remote place, you can still see people milking goats, killing prey and skinning them, which is very primitive.
But when this group of teenagers got together, they had fun even in the ghost town of Fengdu. After a while, they changed their appearances, cheered up, joined hands, strung together in a string, and walked on the street.
It looks a little silly.
When they were drinking fresh goat milk at a small stall, Getulu suddenly came and called Helian Zhu away.
Ruan Jiu held the bowl in both hands while turning to look at him.Not long after, He Lianzhu came back, holding a carved and painted wooden ball in his hand.
He walked up to Ruan Jiu and put the wooden ball in front of him: "Ruan Jiu, go play polo, you haven't played polo for a long time."
Ruan Jiu picked up the bowl and took a big sip of goat milk: "You don't have a polo field here."
He Lianzhu smiled brightly: "Now we have." He pulled Ruan Jiu up: "Let's go."
The polo field outside Shangjing City is exactly the same as the one outside Yong'an City in Liang Guo. It seems to have been moved back from outside Yong'an City. Even the curtains with sheds on the stands are similar.
Ruan Jiu said, why didn't he see Geturu these days, He Lianzhu said he sent him out to do something, so that's what happened.
Seeing that Ruan Jiu didn't go out to play these few days, He Lianzhu just nestled in the post house and played cards, he secretly thought about it, Ruan Jiu is not a person who doesn't like to go out to play, he just doesn't know where to play.
He should take good care of Ruan Jiu.
So he built a polo field for Ruan Jiu.
Sure enough, when Ruan Jiu saw the polo field, his eyes lit up.
He ran two steps forward, turned around and waved: "Quick, bring my horse!"
Ruan Jiu happily rode his horse around the arena for half a circle before he came back on his horse. He subconsciously reached out to He Lianzhu to give him a lift, and then he remembered that He Lianzhu could ride a horse. He clapped his hands away.
"You ride a horse too, and I'll teach you how to ride."
To play polo, there must be seven people in a team, including Ruan Jiu's friends, there are only six, one less.
Yan Ning said: "Go and call Liu Xuan here too, his injuries should be healed, he's always staying in the palace, it's quite boring to think about it."
Ruan Jiu nodded, and immediately ordered someone to invite him.He turned his head and raised an eyebrow at He Lianzhu: "This is also your concubine."
He Lianzhu was puzzled, but at this time Ruan Jiu had already left on his horse.
The same people who came here to marry each other, when the envoy left, only Ruan Jiu and Liu Xuan were left, so Yan Ning wanted to give them a push, let them get acquainted, so that they could support each other in the future .
Not long after, Liu Xuan arrived.
Ruan Jiu was pushed by Yan Ning, so he had no choice but to ride up to him and cleared his throat: "Can you play polo?"
Liu Xuan shook his head: "I won't."
"That's just right, you and He Lianzhu will learn together." Ruan Jiugang was about to order someone to lead the horse, when he suddenly remembered something, and asked back, "Can you ride a horse?"
Liu Xuan shook his head again: "I won't."
"Ah?" Ruan Jiu was a little surprised, afraid that he was lying to himself like He Lianzhu, and asked again, "Really not?"
Liu Xuan only thought that he was doubting himself, and his expression was a little displeased: "I am not from a high family background, and I am also a concubine. All the horses in the family belong to my first brother, and I have no horses."
It turned out to be the case.
Yan Ning pushed Ruan Jiu again, and Ruan Jiu could only say, "Why are you so fierce? I mean, I'll teach you."
He stretched out his hand towards Liu Xuan and dragged him to the horse.
He Lianzhu tried to speak out: "Ruanjiu..."
Ruan Jiu looked back at him: "I really don't know how to ride a horse, I'm not pretending."
He Lianzhu, who pretended not to know how to ride a horse, wrinkled his face as he watched Ruan Jiu lead someone to ride a horse.
Is this the queen?He is simply more king than king.
Just now he said that this is his concubine, but the next moment, Ruan Jiu pulled her into his arms, still in the polo field He Lianzhu built for him.
Although Liu Xuan was riding on the horse, he straightened his back and deliberately kept some distance from Ruan Jiu.
Ruan Jiu didn't realize it, and grabbed his hand: "Hold the rein, and clamp your legs tightly."
He Lianzhu just watched Ruan Jiu run away with others.
Bad soft chirp!
Ruan Jiu looked back at him, with a smug look on his face, he deserved you to lie to me, now you meet someone who really can't ride a horse, right?
I taught him how to do it.
He Lianzhu was very angry and slapped his palm on the tree trunk.
Why is there really no one in this world who can't ride a horse?
Liu Xuan's comprehension is not bad, Ruan Jiu only ran with him twice before handing over the reins to him.
"Try it yourself."
Liu Xuan lowered his eyes and nodded. Ruan Jiu instructed him to loosen the rein slowly. Seeing that he was too timid to move, he patted the horse's ass: "Drive!"
The horse spread its hoofs and galloped forward, Liu Xuan let out a cry of surprise, threw away the rein, and grabbed Ruan Jiu's arm.
Ruan Jiu took the reins, wrapped them around his wrist twice, and stopped the horse.
Ruan Jiu was afraid that he would get angry again, so he hurriedly said, "I didn't expect you to be so scared, why don't you come again..."
Liu Xuan consciously lost his composure, and suddenly withdrew his hand, but said: "It's my fault."
"Ok?"
"I..." Liu Xuan lowered his head, but he didn't finish speaking.
Ruan Jiu turned his head and took a look. His friends were far away, and he probably couldn't hear them.
So he patted Liu Xuan's hand and asked him to hold the rein again: "This time, Yan Ning asked me to call you over. I didn't think of you at all. Why did you always treat me coldly?"
"It is my fault."
"They are going to leave soon. If you are so cold, I won't call you if there is anything in the future. You are alone in the imperial palace, and you can't speak a word, and I don't remember You, what do you do?"
Liu Xuan was silent, and Ruan Jiu asked: "Do you know what's wrong?"
Liu Xuan nodded: "Understood."
Ruan Jiu flicked his ponytail, a little domineering: "Then you say 'I was wrong' and listen."
Liu Xuan looked back at him.
The surname Ruan, don't... push yourself...
"I was wrong." Liu Xuan sounded like a mosquito.
"Not bad." Ruan Jiu was proud, he was very generous, as long as Liu Xuan was willing to apologize to him, he would take Liu Xuan to play with him in the future.
He patted Liu Xuan's shoulder as a reward, pretending to be very old-fashioned: "Don't lose your temper in the future."
Liu Xuan continued to nod: "Yes."
"Then ride for a while, I'll teach you how to ride fast..."
Just as Ruan Jiu was about to let go of the rein and ride his horse forward, he suddenly heard Liu Xuan say: "Palace banquet."
"What?" Ruan Jiu felt as if he didn't hear clearly.
"Last time, it was for Ji Wuxuan and his son's palace banquet."
"What happened to the last palace banquet?" Ruan Jiu recalled some bad things, even he himself hadn't noticed, his voice trembled a little.
"I know, it's not a very good palace banquet, otherwise the family wouldn't send me here, so I managed to bribe a eunuch and asked him to put the seat in the back for me to avoid the limelight."
"and then?"
"Then, that position...you are sitting on it."
"I..." Ruan Jiu's eyes widened, "I didn't do it on purpose, I don't know, it was..."
"I know, the eunuch told me that it was His Highness the Eighth Prince's intention." Liu Xuan glanced at him, "But it was because of that palace banquet that I sat at the front that I was favored by His Majesty."
"You blame me?"
"A little bit." Liu Xuan retracted his gaze, "If you and His Highness the Eighth Highness hadn't intervened, I should have sat in the last seat. I'm already preparing for the imperial examination this spring, and it's only a month away. When I win the exam, I will be able to take my mother out of the Liu Mansion, just a month away..."
As he spoke, his voice became smaller and finally disappeared.
Ruan Jiu was at a loss and didn't know how to comfort him. At this moment, Xiao Mingyuan rode past them and shouted out of nowhere, "Ruan Jiu, what are you doing? If you don't know how to teach, let me teach..."
Ruan Jiu raised his hand and patted him on the back: "Roll."
He hugged Liu Xuan and whispered, "I'm sorry, I really didn't mean it, so don't cry."
Liu Xuan covered his face with his hands, trembling slightly.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Xiao Mingyuan also restrained his expression, and asked, "He... what's wrong with him?"
"I..." Ruan Jiu helped Liu Xuan cover up, and said with a straight neck, "He's timid and always can't learn, so I just scolded him a few times, and in the end he... cried."
Xiao Mingyuan said: "How can you teach people like this? You are going too far!"
Ruan Jiu hugged Liu Xuan, covered his face, and comforted him softly: "Don't cry, I'll treat you to something delicious."
He helped Liu Xuan off the horse, waved to the concerned people, and led them away in a hurry.
Liu Xuan looked weak, but in fact he was too strong in his heart. He wanted a group of people to surround him and watch him cry. When he stopped crying, he would have to commit seppuku in shame.
It wasn't until this moment that Liu Xuan confessed to him that Ruan Jiu knew that he and Xiao Mingyuan had inadvertently done such an outrageous thing to an innocent person.
Liu Xuan was smart and thoughtful, even if no one tipped him off, he still knew that he couldn't stand out at the palace banquet.
He took care of everything, but he fell on Ruan Jiu and Xiao Mingyuan who rushed out halfway.
How can he not complain or hate?
Ruan Jiu suddenly heard him talking, and felt very guilty.
Ruan Jiu didn't let others follow in after taking him to the room where people change clothes beside the polo field.
He asked Liu Xuan to sit on the chair, poured him tea, and turned around to twist the veil for him.
Ruan Jiu was really guilty. He squatted in front of him, looked up at him, and handed him a handkerchief: "Wipe your face."
Liu Xuan thanked him, took the handkerchief, and pressed the corners of his red eyes.
"There's nothing I can say to make you go back now." Ruan Jiu tugged at his sleeve and looked at him with aggrieved eyes, "I'm really sorry, I really didn't mean it."
He thought for a while, and then said: "But don't worry, as long as you are alive for a day, I will take good care of you. From today on, you will be my brother, and I will find a way to send you back in a few years. If you have any demands, just ask, you just said about your mother, I will ask my father to go back and talk to my mother, and ask my mother to help."
Liu Xuan shook his head: "No need, I made an agreement with the Liu Manor before I came, and I have already arranged for my mother."
"Then what else do you want?"
"I didn't ask for it." Liu Xuan still shook his head, "I'm not asking you to do anything for me when I tell you this. I just..."
Ruan Jiu looked up at him.
"I feel like I hate the wrong person." Liu Xuan looked at him, "You are not a bad person. I have hated the wrong person for the past few months."
"But……"
"But now I don't even know who I should hate."
Ruan Jiu said obediently: "Then you can blame me."
Liu Xuan looked at him and smiled: "Young master doesn't understand."
"I understand."
"Speaking of which, I also have one thing to apologize to the young master."
"Ok?"
"The little prince fell into the water in the palace."
"Ah?" Ruan Jiu stood up abruptly, "You, you, you..."
"I didn't push the young master." Liu Xuan flicked his fingers away, "I saw the young master standing behind the rockery and wanted to argue with the young master about the seat, but the young master fell into the water before he could pass. "
"Then you see..."
Liu Xuan nodded: "I see, it's a man wearing fierce clothes, but I didn't have time to catch him."
"It's a fierce man." Ruan Jiu thought for a while, and finally said, "I can't think of who it is."
"Ashina."
"He..." Ruan Jiu frowned, "It doesn't make sense, I've never seen him before."
"This shows that he was instructed by someone to insist on you getting married."
"Who would that be?"
"It's nothing more than people from both sides." Liu Xuandao, "The Jiwu court is divided into two factions, one is the old courtiers who surrendered to the empress dowager, the empress dowager doesn't like people from Liang, and she wholeheartedly supports Helian Zhu's brother Helian Cheng is in charge; one is the new faction, headed by the empress dowager and the regent, the empress dowager is close to Daliang, and this mission was initiated by her. In order to stabilize the alliance, the empress dowager also proposed a marriage."
Ruan Jiu asked stupidly: "So?"
"So, Ashina who is in charge of this mission should belong to the Empress Dowager."
"Then—it's even more impossible, the empress dowager doesn't know me either."
"So, I suspect that Ashina is obviously the empress dowager's person, but in fact he obeys the assignment from the other side." Liu Xuan touched his index finger, "I have confirmed one thing in the imperial palace these few days, hehe Lian Cheng fought Liang Guo last year, and I remember that your brother also went to the battlefield last year, so he should have taken a fancy to your brother at that time, but Ashina..."
Ruan Jiu slapped the table angrily: "Shameless!"
"It's very shameless." Liu Xuan said, "I went to the Empress Dowager's palace this morning, and there was one thing that confirmed all my guesses."
Liu Xuan turned his head and saw Ruan Jiu's glowing gaze, a little uncomfortable: "Don't look at me like this, I just feel that I have wronged you these few days, I'm sorry, and I want to remind you. These things, as long as If you pay attention, you can guess."
Ruan Jiu touched his heart, and said blankly: "I don't seem to have a heart."
The author has something to say: Zhuzhu is pinching the watch outside the door: I have been alone for 5 minutes, why not come out!
King Jiwu is a child, how did he choose the king?Is this reasonable?
He Lianzhu was three years younger than Ruan Jiu, not as tall as him, and certainly not yet in power. With such a king, he didn't even have much money, how could he afford Ruan Jiu?What's more, he himself is at the mercy of others, how can he protect Ruan Jiu?

"Okay." He Lianzhu stood next to him.
Ruan Jiulai, as if returning to the wedding night, refused to leave in the post house, playing with his friends every day.
The only difference is that he has a concubine to peel fruit for him to eat.
In the Jiwu Palace, the Empress Dowager did not urge him, but the Empress Dowager sent someone to pass on a message, and stabbed him several times overtly and secretly. Anyway, Ruan Jiu didn't understand, so he handed it over to He Lianzhu.
A few days later, before He Lianzhu was in a hurry, Master Ruan got angry first.
"Every day is not playing cards, or staying up late to read scripts, eating and not moving, I think you are going to die suddenly." Master Ruan pulled him off the couch, "Get out and play."
A group of people reluctantly went out.
Naturally, the streets of Jiwu are not as prosperous as Daliang. If you walk in a remote place, you can still see people milking goats, killing prey and skinning them, which is very primitive.
But when this group of teenagers got together, they had fun even in the ghost town of Fengdu. After a while, they changed their appearances, cheered up, joined hands, strung together in a string, and walked on the street.
It looks a little silly.
When they were drinking fresh goat milk at a small stall, Getulu suddenly came and called Helian Zhu away.
Ruan Jiu held the bowl in both hands while turning to look at him.Not long after, He Lianzhu came back, holding a carved and painted wooden ball in his hand.
He walked up to Ruan Jiu and put the wooden ball in front of him: "Ruan Jiu, go play polo, you haven't played polo for a long time."
Ruan Jiu picked up the bowl and took a big sip of goat milk: "You don't have a polo field here."
He Lianzhu smiled brightly: "Now we have." He pulled Ruan Jiu up: "Let's go."
The polo field outside Shangjing City is exactly the same as the one outside Yong'an City in Liang Guo. It seems to have been moved back from outside Yong'an City. Even the curtains with sheds on the stands are similar.
Ruan Jiu said, why didn't he see Geturu these days, He Lianzhu said he sent him out to do something, so that's what happened.
Seeing that Ruan Jiu didn't go out to play these few days, He Lianzhu just nestled in the post house and played cards, he secretly thought about it, Ruan Jiu is not a person who doesn't like to go out to play, he just doesn't know where to play.
He should take good care of Ruan Jiu.
So he built a polo field for Ruan Jiu.
Sure enough, when Ruan Jiu saw the polo field, his eyes lit up.
He ran two steps forward, turned around and waved: "Quick, bring my horse!"
Ruan Jiu happily rode his horse around the arena for half a circle before he came back on his horse. He subconsciously reached out to He Lianzhu to give him a lift, and then he remembered that He Lianzhu could ride a horse. He clapped his hands away.
"You ride a horse too, and I'll teach you how to ride."
To play polo, there must be seven people in a team, including Ruan Jiu's friends, there are only six, one less.
Yan Ning said: "Go and call Liu Xuan here too, his injuries should be healed, he's always staying in the palace, it's quite boring to think about it."
Ruan Jiu nodded, and immediately ordered someone to invite him.He turned his head and raised an eyebrow at He Lianzhu: "This is also your concubine."
He Lianzhu was puzzled, but at this time Ruan Jiu had already left on his horse.
The same people who came here to marry each other, when the envoy left, only Ruan Jiu and Liu Xuan were left, so Yan Ning wanted to give them a push, let them get acquainted, so that they could support each other in the future .
Not long after, Liu Xuan arrived.
Ruan Jiu was pushed by Yan Ning, so he had no choice but to ride up to him and cleared his throat: "Can you play polo?"
Liu Xuan shook his head: "I won't."
"That's just right, you and He Lianzhu will learn together." Ruan Jiugang was about to order someone to lead the horse, when he suddenly remembered something, and asked back, "Can you ride a horse?"
Liu Xuan shook his head again: "I won't."
"Ah?" Ruan Jiu was a little surprised, afraid that he was lying to himself like He Lianzhu, and asked again, "Really not?"
Liu Xuan only thought that he was doubting himself, and his expression was a little displeased: "I am not from a high family background, and I am also a concubine. All the horses in the family belong to my first brother, and I have no horses."
It turned out to be the case.
Yan Ning pushed Ruan Jiu again, and Ruan Jiu could only say, "Why are you so fierce? I mean, I'll teach you."
He stretched out his hand towards Liu Xuan and dragged him to the horse.
He Lianzhu tried to speak out: "Ruanjiu..."
Ruan Jiu looked back at him: "I really don't know how to ride a horse, I'm not pretending."
He Lianzhu, who pretended not to know how to ride a horse, wrinkled his face as he watched Ruan Jiu lead someone to ride a horse.
Is this the queen?He is simply more king than king.
Just now he said that this is his concubine, but the next moment, Ruan Jiu pulled her into his arms, still in the polo field He Lianzhu built for him.
Although Liu Xuan was riding on the horse, he straightened his back and deliberately kept some distance from Ruan Jiu.
Ruan Jiu didn't realize it, and grabbed his hand: "Hold the rein, and clamp your legs tightly."
He Lianzhu just watched Ruan Jiu run away with others.
Bad soft chirp!
Ruan Jiu looked back at him, with a smug look on his face, he deserved you to lie to me, now you meet someone who really can't ride a horse, right?
I taught him how to do it.
He Lianzhu was very angry and slapped his palm on the tree trunk.
Why is there really no one in this world who can't ride a horse?
Liu Xuan's comprehension is not bad, Ruan Jiu only ran with him twice before handing over the reins to him.
"Try it yourself."
Liu Xuan lowered his eyes and nodded. Ruan Jiu instructed him to loosen the rein slowly. Seeing that he was too timid to move, he patted the horse's ass: "Drive!"
The horse spread its hoofs and galloped forward, Liu Xuan let out a cry of surprise, threw away the rein, and grabbed Ruan Jiu's arm.
Ruan Jiu took the reins, wrapped them around his wrist twice, and stopped the horse.
Ruan Jiu was afraid that he would get angry again, so he hurriedly said, "I didn't expect you to be so scared, why don't you come again..."
Liu Xuan consciously lost his composure, and suddenly withdrew his hand, but said: "It's my fault."
"Ok?"
"I..." Liu Xuan lowered his head, but he didn't finish speaking.
Ruan Jiu turned his head and took a look. His friends were far away, and he probably couldn't hear them.
So he patted Liu Xuan's hand and asked him to hold the rein again: "This time, Yan Ning asked me to call you over. I didn't think of you at all. Why did you always treat me coldly?"
"It is my fault."
"They are going to leave soon. If you are so cold, I won't call you if there is anything in the future. You are alone in the imperial palace, and you can't speak a word, and I don't remember You, what do you do?"
Liu Xuan was silent, and Ruan Jiu asked: "Do you know what's wrong?"
Liu Xuan nodded: "Understood."
Ruan Jiu flicked his ponytail, a little domineering: "Then you say 'I was wrong' and listen."
Liu Xuan looked back at him.
The surname Ruan, don't... push yourself...
"I was wrong." Liu Xuan sounded like a mosquito.
"Not bad." Ruan Jiu was proud, he was very generous, as long as Liu Xuan was willing to apologize to him, he would take Liu Xuan to play with him in the future.
He patted Liu Xuan's shoulder as a reward, pretending to be very old-fashioned: "Don't lose your temper in the future."
Liu Xuan continued to nod: "Yes."
"Then ride for a while, I'll teach you how to ride fast..."
Just as Ruan Jiu was about to let go of the rein and ride his horse forward, he suddenly heard Liu Xuan say: "Palace banquet."
"What?" Ruan Jiu felt as if he didn't hear clearly.
"Last time, it was for Ji Wuxuan and his son's palace banquet."
"What happened to the last palace banquet?" Ruan Jiu recalled some bad things, even he himself hadn't noticed, his voice trembled a little.
"I know, it's not a very good palace banquet, otherwise the family wouldn't send me here, so I managed to bribe a eunuch and asked him to put the seat in the back for me to avoid the limelight."
"and then?"
"Then, that position...you are sitting on it."
"I..." Ruan Jiu's eyes widened, "I didn't do it on purpose, I don't know, it was..."
"I know, the eunuch told me that it was His Highness the Eighth Prince's intention." Liu Xuan glanced at him, "But it was because of that palace banquet that I sat at the front that I was favored by His Majesty."
"You blame me?"
"A little bit." Liu Xuan retracted his gaze, "If you and His Highness the Eighth Highness hadn't intervened, I should have sat in the last seat. I'm already preparing for the imperial examination this spring, and it's only a month away. When I win the exam, I will be able to take my mother out of the Liu Mansion, just a month away..."
As he spoke, his voice became smaller and finally disappeared.
Ruan Jiu was at a loss and didn't know how to comfort him. At this moment, Xiao Mingyuan rode past them and shouted out of nowhere, "Ruan Jiu, what are you doing? If you don't know how to teach, let me teach..."
Ruan Jiu raised his hand and patted him on the back: "Roll."
He hugged Liu Xuan and whispered, "I'm sorry, I really didn't mean it, so don't cry."
Liu Xuan covered his face with his hands, trembling slightly.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Xiao Mingyuan also restrained his expression, and asked, "He... what's wrong with him?"
"I..." Ruan Jiu helped Liu Xuan cover up, and said with a straight neck, "He's timid and always can't learn, so I just scolded him a few times, and in the end he... cried."
Xiao Mingyuan said: "How can you teach people like this? You are going too far!"
Ruan Jiu hugged Liu Xuan, covered his face, and comforted him softly: "Don't cry, I'll treat you to something delicious."
He helped Liu Xuan off the horse, waved to the concerned people, and led them away in a hurry.
Liu Xuan looked weak, but in fact he was too strong in his heart. He wanted a group of people to surround him and watch him cry. When he stopped crying, he would have to commit seppuku in shame.
It wasn't until this moment that Liu Xuan confessed to him that Ruan Jiu knew that he and Xiao Mingyuan had inadvertently done such an outrageous thing to an innocent person.
Liu Xuan was smart and thoughtful, even if no one tipped him off, he still knew that he couldn't stand out at the palace banquet.
He took care of everything, but he fell on Ruan Jiu and Xiao Mingyuan who rushed out halfway.
How can he not complain or hate?
Ruan Jiu suddenly heard him talking, and felt very guilty.
Ruan Jiu didn't let others follow in after taking him to the room where people change clothes beside the polo field.
He asked Liu Xuan to sit on the chair, poured him tea, and turned around to twist the veil for him.
Ruan Jiu was really guilty. He squatted in front of him, looked up at him, and handed him a handkerchief: "Wipe your face."
Liu Xuan thanked him, took the handkerchief, and pressed the corners of his red eyes.
"There's nothing I can say to make you go back now." Ruan Jiu tugged at his sleeve and looked at him with aggrieved eyes, "I'm really sorry, I really didn't mean it."
He thought for a while, and then said: "But don't worry, as long as you are alive for a day, I will take good care of you. From today on, you will be my brother, and I will find a way to send you back in a few years. If you have any demands, just ask, you just said about your mother, I will ask my father to go back and talk to my mother, and ask my mother to help."
Liu Xuan shook his head: "No need, I made an agreement with the Liu Manor before I came, and I have already arranged for my mother."
"Then what else do you want?"
"I didn't ask for it." Liu Xuan still shook his head, "I'm not asking you to do anything for me when I tell you this. I just..."
Ruan Jiu looked up at him.
"I feel like I hate the wrong person." Liu Xuan looked at him, "You are not a bad person. I have hated the wrong person for the past few months."
"But……"
"But now I don't even know who I should hate."
Ruan Jiu said obediently: "Then you can blame me."
Liu Xuan looked at him and smiled: "Young master doesn't understand."
"I understand."
"Speaking of which, I also have one thing to apologize to the young master."
"Ok?"
"The little prince fell into the water in the palace."
"Ah?" Ruan Jiu stood up abruptly, "You, you, you..."
"I didn't push the young master." Liu Xuan flicked his fingers away, "I saw the young master standing behind the rockery and wanted to argue with the young master about the seat, but the young master fell into the water before he could pass. "
"Then you see..."
Liu Xuan nodded: "I see, it's a man wearing fierce clothes, but I didn't have time to catch him."
"It's a fierce man." Ruan Jiu thought for a while, and finally said, "I can't think of who it is."
"Ashina."
"He..." Ruan Jiu frowned, "It doesn't make sense, I've never seen him before."
"This shows that he was instructed by someone to insist on you getting married."
"Who would that be?"
"It's nothing more than people from both sides." Liu Xuandao, "The Jiwu court is divided into two factions, one is the old courtiers who surrendered to the empress dowager, the empress dowager doesn't like people from Liang, and she wholeheartedly supports Helian Zhu's brother Helian Cheng is in charge; one is the new faction, headed by the empress dowager and the regent, the empress dowager is close to Daliang, and this mission was initiated by her. In order to stabilize the alliance, the empress dowager also proposed a marriage."
Ruan Jiu asked stupidly: "So?"
"So, Ashina who is in charge of this mission should belong to the Empress Dowager."
"Then—it's even more impossible, the empress dowager doesn't know me either."
"So, I suspect that Ashina is obviously the empress dowager's person, but in fact he obeys the assignment from the other side." Liu Xuan touched his index finger, "I have confirmed one thing in the imperial palace these few days, hehe Lian Cheng fought Liang Guo last year, and I remember that your brother also went to the battlefield last year, so he should have taken a fancy to your brother at that time, but Ashina..."
Ruan Jiu slapped the table angrily: "Shameless!"
"It's very shameless." Liu Xuan said, "I went to the Empress Dowager's palace this morning, and there was one thing that confirmed all my guesses."
Liu Xuan turned his head and saw Ruan Jiu's glowing gaze, a little uncomfortable: "Don't look at me like this, I just feel that I have wronged you these few days, I'm sorry, and I want to remind you. These things, as long as If you pay attention, you can guess."
Ruan Jiu touched his heart, and said blankly: "I don't seem to have a heart."
The author has something to say: Zhuzhu is pinching the watch outside the door: I have been alone for 5 minutes, why not come out!
