It turns out that I too have been robbed.

Pei Ruzhou didn't know that he had touched Tai Sui's head.

After walking around in Huazhang Palace and familiarizing himself with the surroundings, he officially began to spend his days studying with the prince.

There are five sons and two daughters in the current Holy Majesty, and there are three who are still studying in the palace—the brat Qi Yunyao, the future tyrant Qi Baili, and the fat little fourth prince who took the lead in making trouble that day.

Qi Baili always sat in the corner without saying a word. After a long time, Pei Ruzhou would even forget that there was such a person in Suihan Palace.

At that time, the old master was reciting scriptures by the desk, which made people drowsy.

"There is a lake in the shadow of Mount Wuyan, seventy feet long and 42 feet wide. On the side of the lake..."

"73, 49."

Before Tai Tu finished speaking, he was suddenly interrupted.He frowned, looked at the person who made the sound, and said sharply: "Young Master Pei, if you have anything to say, let's talk about it later!"

The Tai Tuo, who is nearly seventy years old, once taught the current Holy Majesty, and is extremely authoritative in the palace.

The last thing he likes to be interrupted.Especially this Pei Ruzhou, who always looked absent-minded in class, and now he suddenly spoke, which he directly regarded as causing trouble.

"Sir, the Wuyan Mountain Lake you mentioned just now," Pei Ruzhou didn't look scared, he said again, "it should be 73 feet long and 49 feet wide."

"You—" Tai Tuo's eyes widened immediately, he sneered twice, blew his beard regardless of his image, and then went to look down at the book.

I have taught for decades, and I haven't made a mistake yet!

However, after a few breaths, the face of the originally angry Tai Tuo suddenly changed.

...really 73, 49?

What Pei Ruzhou said was actually correct...but how did he know?

The Taifu's face turned pale immediately, and it seemed that even his beard had drooped down.

The "Yi Shui Jun Jing" that I learned recently is a geographical map. A few years ago, General Pei Ruzhou forced Pei Ruzhou to memorize the entire book.Now even with his eyes closed, he can draw the enclosed landscape illustration book, which is pretty good.

Seeing Taifu's expression, Qi Yunyao understood immediately.

He immediately said happily: "Ru Zhou is so powerful, he even knows this!"

"Quietly!" The Taifu, who had been severely hurt, closed the book unwillingly, and repeated: "73, 49." After finishing speaking, he finally asked in disbelief: "How do you remember this?" ?”

"Yi Shui Jun Jing" has more than 600 pages, divided into two volumes. What he said just now is even just a paragraph without the text...

Pei Ruzhou smiled, and said casually, "I happened to turn over here this morning, I just happened to remember it."

Coincidentally?

Pei Ruzhou didn't know that from the moment he spoke, Qi Baili's crow-black eyes were quietly watching him.

Qi Baili, who was sitting in the back row, saw that there was a piece of rice paper with wet ink in Pei Ruzhou's books. Although the traces on the paper were a bit scribbled, they could still be seen roughly.

——What Pei Ruzhou drew was the trend chart of Wuyan Mountain.

This picture is in the second volume of "Yi Shui Jun Jing".

Where did Pei Ruzhou flip through?He was afraid that he had memorized this book by heart long ago.

Qi Baili suddenly felt that this beautiful son of the Pei family might not be as stupid as he thought.

……

As soon as the break time came, Qi Yunyao moved to Pei Ruzhou's side.

He seemed to be very interested in Zhoulan Pass, always asking questions, and Pei Ruzhou was very happy to talk about it.After getting along for a few days, he has unconsciously treated Qi Yunyao as his younger brother.

After all, both are the same bear.

"My concubine once said that there is a kind of eagle kite in Zhoulan Pass, would you make that kite?"

"Of course." Hearing the words "Zuran Pass", Pei Ruzhou immediately regained his energy.

"Harrier eagle kites are much bigger than ordinary kites. We all go to the grasslands to fly them on horseback. Even wolves won't come over to see it from a distance... If you want to see it, I'll make one for you when I have time." After saying that, Pei Ruzhou wanted to go back a little bit.

He said he was making a kite for Qi Yunyao, but he actually wanted to play it himself.

"That's great," Qi Yunyao couldn't help but read softly, "It's a pity that the concubine mother didn't have a chance to see it." His voice was a little lonely, completely different from the slightly stubborn look in the past.

Qi Yunyao's mother and concubine...Meng Xing'er.

Pei Ruzhou once heard the Princess mention her.

Meng Xing'er, who was born in Zhoulan Pass, went to Beijing to visit her elder brother who was doing business here when she was 17 years old. Unexpectedly, she met the emperor traveling in micro-clothes, and fell in love at first sight immediately, and took her back to the palace to be named a virtuous concubine.

Everyone said that the virtuous concubine Meng Xing'er was the emperor's true love.

In the years when she entered the palace, except for Qi Baili, who came out with the girl after the emperor drank, there was no concubine or son in the harem.

But the good times didn't last long, and within a few years, Meng Xing'er died in the palace due to illness.

From then on, the emperor completely ignored the harem, and he and Meng Xinger's only son, Qi Yunyao, lived in the Qiande Palace before the age of ten, and was raised by the emperor himself.

At this moment, Qi Yunyao was like a puppy whose tail drooped suddenly.

Seeing his lost look, Pei Ruzhou couldn't help but slowly raised his hand, and rubbed the top of Qi Yunyao's hair—just like treating his younger brother.

Pei Ruzhou didn't notice that the young man sitting beside him froze for a moment. He instinctively wanted to avoid it, but after a pause, he still couldn't help it and rubbed against him lightly.

Everyone in Huazhang Palace is afraid of themselves.

Pei Ruzhou was an exception.

Qi Yunyao couldn't help yearning for this tenderness...but the next moment he suddenly gritted his teeth and sat up straight.

Pei Ruzhou was taken aback by his actions.He felt that Qi Yunyao was a little strange at this time, but he couldn't tell what kind of strange method it was.

Qi Yunyao returned to his seat. He picked up the "Yi Shui Jun Jing" and flipped through it quickly, but after a long while, he didn't read a single word into his head.

Qi Yunyao knew that his mother and concubine did not die of illness.

Instead, he was killed.

And he was killed by General Pei back then.

Meng Xing'er originally had a fiancé in Zhoulan Pass.Even after she became a concubine, her fiancé still couldn't forget her, and even chased her all the way to Fengcheng.

I don't know how Meng Xing'er got in touch with that fiancé. After secretly exchanging letters for a while, Meng Xing'er took the opportunity of going out to visit the lake and ran away with that man.

The emperor was furious when he knew about it, but the matter concerned the face of the royal family, so he didn't say anything, but sent someone to pursue it privately.

After Meng Xing'er escaped, she fled back to Zhoulan Pass.

Qi Yunyao's uncle told him that the emperor had a deep affection for Meng Xing'er, and had said that as long as she came back, he would forget the past.

It's a pity that Meng Xing'er finally bumped into the hands of General Pei.

The uncle said that he was worried that Meng Xing'er would flee to the Western Regions after leaving Zhoulan Pass.After receiving the secret order, General Pei took dozens of Qingqi to encircle them.I don't know what happened at Zhoulan Pass, anyway, Meng Xing'er didn't return to Fengcheng in the end, but died there...

The emperor suppressed the matter and only said that he died of illness.

Although he still doted on the seventh prince born to Meng Xinger, he completely marginalized the Meng family who had gained power because of the virtuous concubine from the court.

Qi Yunyao, whose mother's family lost power, almost missed the throne.

"Pei Ruzhou, Pei Ruzhou..." Qi Yunyao muttered the name softly.

He knew from an early age that General Pei had a son named "Ru Zhou" who was about the same age as him.

General Pei wanted him to live a bright and aboveboard life, but he... wanted to drag him into the abyss.

If General Pei hadn't killed his mother and concubine, he would have everything.

Pei Ruzhou, if you want to blame, blame your father.

Qi Yunyao narrowed his eyes, and couldn't help but clenched the pages of the book in his hand.

The mother and concubine once said that there is a little thing called "Sand Dune Cat" in Zhoulan Pass.It is the most beautiful kitten in the world, but it can only live in the desert, under the hot sun, and no one has ever been able to feed it.

Qi Yunyao suddenly felt that Pei Ruzhou was like this sand dune cat.

Beautiful and fragile.

Now that this kitten has fallen into his hands, he must give him some sweetness first, and when he has had enough fun, he will drown this beautiful little guy in the water...

Thinking of this, Qi Yunyao suddenly went to Pei Ruzhou's side again.

"Ru Zhou, don't forget the eagle kite you mentioned just now," he said after a pause, "By the way, my father sent some pastries over yesterday, and you will return to Changquan Palace with me later. Let's eat together!"

"I--"

Pei Ruzhou was not interested in cakes, he was about to refuse, but then he remembered the identity of the other party.

Immortal Yaoan!

Recently, spending all day with this brat and watching him mess around, Pei Ruzhou almost forgot about business.

He swallowed the rest of the words, nodded and said, "Okay, if you have bamboo, I can make a kite tonight."

"Okay!" Qi Yunyao's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help rubbing Pei Ruzhou's arm, looking very happy.

Not far away, the fourth prince who had been serving as Qi Yunyao's follower snorted a little dissatisfied.

I don't know what's so good about Pei Ruzhou, why does Lao Qi like him so much all of a sudden?

But the next moment, the Fourth Prince sneered again.

He knew Qi Yunyao very well.

This Mr. Pei, who came from Zhoulan Pass and had never seen anything in the world, was just a fresh toy to Lao Qi.

When you get tired of playing, you will throw it away.

……

After the class in Suihan Palace was over, Qi Yunyao dragged Pei Ruzhou towards his own Changquan Palace.

Qi Baili happened to pass them by outside the hall.

His eyes slowly fell to Pei Ruzhou's back, and the next moment he looked back as if nothing had happened.

At this moment, Qi Baili walked into the bamboo forest outside the Suihan Palace, and a court lady in a smoky pink skirt appeared out of nowhere.

"Your Majesty Sixth, Wanan." Unlike other people in the palace, this court lady bowed a big gift to Qi Baili very solemnly.

"En." Qi Baili stopped in his tracks.

His dark eyes like crow's feathers were full of the alienation and arrogance that only someone who has been in a superior position for a long time, was stared at by Qi Baili, and the maid couldn't help but get nervous.

"This is a letter from Weiguo." She lowered her head and delivered a letter to Qi Baili with trembling hands.

The young man took the letter, and even though it was densely written on a large piece of paper, he glanced at it casually, and then handed it back to the maid.

Immediately afterwards, the other party skillfully took out the flint, and burned the letter to ashes in front of Qi Baili.

——This letter records all the memorials received by the new emperor of the state of Wei in the past month.

From offering sacrifices to the heavens to fighting in the marketplace, everything is in every detail.
