Sima Rong answered "Yes", leaned slightly, raised Wang Shuzhi's sleeve, picked up a white piece and dropped it on the chessboard, saw him looking at him with raised eyebrows, and explained, "The villain just now Seeing the prime minister flick the chess piece away, he boldly picked it up and put it back in its original place, I wonder if I remembered correctly?"

"That's right." Wang Shuzhi found it interesting, smiled lightly, and pointed to the chessboard, "Are you planning to start from this endgame?"

"Exactly." Sima Rong looked at the chessboard, picked up a black piece at hand, thought for a while, and landed next to a white piece.

Wang Shuzhi looked at him in surprise, his smile deepened, and he picked up the white pieces and started playing chess with him.

The inside of the screen became silent for a moment, and the people outside looked at each other, only to see the prime minister's figure changed from reclining to sitting reclining, and then to sitting upright after a while, except for the occasional sound of falling, there was no movement.

A fireplace was burning in the corner, and the interior room was filled with incense. Wang Shuzhi opened his clothes a little, revealing a small cinnabar mole in the middle of his chest, which was really wanton and romantic.

Sima Rong came in from the outside, dressed a little too much, played chess effortlessly, but sweated a little, looked up at the person opposite, couldn't help wanting to go out to cool off, but he couldn't bear it, even if he felt unhappy, It doesn't show a single cent.

Wang Shuzhi looked at the chessboard in admiration, and lightly tapped his palm with the handle of Ruyi: "Good!"

"Thank you, Prime Minister, for your praise!"

"I'm not praising you, but this chess piece." Wang Shuzhi was full of smiles, and leaned down on the short table again, only facing each other from the side as before.

Sima Rong was a little speechless, looked up at him, and snorted coldly in his heart: I also put on a coquettish appearance in front of my servants, I really don't feel too tired to panic.

With a smile in Wang Shuzhi's eyes, he flicked his sleeves to disrupt the chess game, and squinted his eyes to look at the lingering green smoke: "It's so bold, what would you do if you ask me, and you just take advantage of it like this, aren't you afraid that I will kill you?"

Sima Rong responded calmly: "The steward has given orders before, and we will answer whatever the prime minister asks. If the prime minister asks, the villain dare not hide it, so naturally he must tell the truth. The villain does know how to talk with hands, and what he said is true. .No fault, how can there be punishment?"

"Hmm..." Wang Shuzhi nodded, as if he was thinking, "Then what else can you do?"

"I'm ashamed of the villain. I know a thing or two about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. In front of the prime minister, I'm really playing tricks."

Wang Shuzhi frowned slightly: "It's strange, why didn't you say that you can chop firewood, carry water, and clean the courtyard?"

"These villains know some things, but they are not as skilled as others."

"Qin, chess, calligraphy, painting..." Wang Shuzhi looked around, pointing to the table next to him, "Go and make a painting to have a look, let's take a look at the landscape."

"Yes." Sima Rong got up, walked over to sit down on his knees, picked up his sleeves and began to grind ink.

Wang Shuzhi rested his forehead on his hand, stared at his side for a while, saw him dipping his pen in ink, and asked, "What's wrong with your legs?"

Sima Rong's pen tip paused, and suddenly remembered that just now when he got up and took his seat, he subconsciously supported the seat with his hands, and he couldn't help but feel a little bit in his heart. He put down his pen and bowed his hands sideways to salute him: "Thank you for your concern, the little man accidentally sprained his foot on the way. .”

"Yeah." Wang Shuzhi nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

Sima Rong turned back and couldn't help but secretly startled. Although his legs and feet were flexible after being reborn, after all, the habits of many years were hard to change. When he came here, he often boarded the car with his hands. But Wang Shuzhi's eyes are very poisonous, so he should pay more attention in the future.

Wang Shuzhi called the steward in while he was waiting, ordered the errands of the previous few people one by one, and then waved them away with a wave of his hand. He is really too busy today, and he has to do even such small things by himself. With nothing to do, he yawned and continued to play with the chess pieces.

Sima Rong put down his pen and sent the finished painting in front of him: "Please take a look at it, Prime Minister."

Wang Shuzhi took the painting over to look at it, and laughed: "The brushwork is very skillful, but the heat is a little lacking. I see you are very calm, as if you have seen strong winds and waves, the scenery you paint should be broad and artistic. Why? So restrained?"

"A small person can't travel a hundred miles, and what he can see and understand is limited to a small courtyard. If he draws some flowers, plants and trees, he can do it with ease. As far as landscapes are concerned, he has tried his best." Go through the door.

Wang Shuzhi smiled and nodded in satisfaction.

He has a high attainment in painting, and he can tell at a glance that Sima Rong is not hiding his clumsiness, and indeed lacks some artistic conception. If he said that he had some doubts in his heart before, now he has dispelled a little bit. He put away the painting and looked up at him: "You are not the Lu family. Is it his servant? How did this happen?"

"To be honest, the villain admires talented and learned people. When he was in the prefect's mansion, he watched and learned, and learned some superficial knowledge. That's why he dared to make a fool of himself in front of the prime minister."

Wang Shuzhi shook his head when he heard it: "Prefect Lu is so conniving to a servant like you?"

"Prefect Lu is open to all kinds of people. The villain is by Mr. Lu's side to serve. Mr. Lu is also generous and can't bear to criticize the villain. Besides, the villain only learns when he has time, and he is not lazy."

"Wonderful!" Wang Shuzhi found it interesting, and his smile lost a bit of scrutiny, and asked, "How old are you this year?"

"..." Sima Rong groaned in his heart, remembering that the other three servants were all sixteen or seventeen years old, guessing that Yuan Sheng should be about the same, he said, "Seventeen."

"Look how old-fashioned it is."

"..." Sima Rong lowered his eyes, "Prime Minister is absurd."

"Hahahaha!"

"..."

Wang Shuzhi smiled all over his face: "You are so young, why are you so rigid? If it weren't for my good eyesight, I would have thought you were about the same age as me, no, older than me, like an old master."

Sima Rong had no choice but to put on a slightly curious look: "How old is the prime minister?"

"Disrespectful! Did you ever say something like that?" Wang Shuzhi knocked Ruyi on the chessboard, causing the bullets to jump out of the chessboard. The smile in his eyes didn't retreat, obviously he wasn't really angry.

Sima Rong felt that the prime minister was making trouble out of no reason, so he sighed inwardly: "The villain Chao Yue, how dare you ask the prime minister how old he is?"

Wang Shuzhi felt that he should maintain this tone and listen more, so he responded with a smile: "It was only last year that we reached the weak championship."

"The prime minister is young and promising."

"Absurd praise." Wang Shuzhi didn't expect that he would be so enthusiastic in chatting with a servant, so he changed his posture and flicked his sleeves, still in a chic and unrestrained posture, "What's your name?"

"Yuansheng."

"Tacky! Who fetched it for you?"

"..." Sima Rong was at a loss for words for a moment, and paused for a while, "Starting from Taishou Lu, he is a villain with a humble status, and his name doesn't matter whether it is elegant or vulgar, as long as he is smooth."

"Tsk tsk... Eunuch Lu is really a boring person." Wang Shuzhi shook his head when he heard this, and thought for a while, "From today onwards, just stay by my side."

Sima Rong was overjoyed, and raised his eyelids slightly: "Thank you, Prime Minister! Thank you, Prime Minister, for your name!"

"You're welcome." Wang Shuzhi glanced at him, the corners of his eyes flickering with interest, "But now there are four people around me, namely Pavilion, Terrace, Building, and Pavilion. I never thought that there would be one more person. It's not a good name."

Sima Rong had already heard about his elegance, but he didn't expect him to be so particular about the names of his attendants.

Wang Shuzhi was meditating, and there was a Ganoderma lucidum engraved on the end of the wishful handle. The Ganoderma lucidum was tapping on his forehead lightly, and a light and sometimes heavy shadow fell through the candlelight. After a while, the corner of his mouth curled up: "Since you are late , so how about Wang Chi?"

Sima Rong didn't know whether he was in a hurry, or if he really had a good time chatting with him. After thinking about the name for so long, he came here to ask for some opinions. Although he was not flattered, he was still a little surprised, and hurriedly replied : "Thank you, Prime Minister!"

Wang Shuzhi looked at him, and said displeasedly, "Don't be so patronizing, let me ask you, how does this name come from?"

"..." Sima Rong looked up at him and said sincerely, "Very good."

"Where's the good?"

It's not over yet...

"Huh?" Wang Shuzhi looked straight at him.

Sima Rong sneered in his heart, dropped the book bag, who wouldn't, so he responded loudly: "Mr. Xuande visited the thatched cottage three times. Mr. Zhuge once wrote a poem: Who will wake up the big dream first? I know it all my life. The cottage is full of sleep in spring, and the sun is late outside the window. You can see , It’s better to be late.”

"Hahahaha!" Wang Shuzhi laughed, "Interesting! You are so interesting!"

Sima Rong smiled calmly and didn't say any more, but secretly felt that Wang Cheng was more open-minded than he had imagined.

"I had a great time chatting tonight, and I appreciate you going to swim the Qinhuai River with me tomorrow!" Wang Shuzhi said and got up from the table, walked to the door and suddenly turned around, nodded at him with Ruyi, with a slight smile on his lips, " Prefect Lu has no dust in his eyes, and he will regret it in the future."

I think so too!The prime minister has good eyesight!

Sima Rong slightly bent the corners of his lips: "Prime Minister's praise."

Seeing his calm appearance, Wang Shuzhi shook his head, "Oh...it's so boring." Then he turned and left, and the high-tooth clogs stepped on the corridor, making a series of crisp sounds.

The two maidservants standing guard at the door burst into laughter, and one of them looked out, and after Wang Shuzhi walked away, he looked at Sima Rong, and said with frowned eyebrows, "Sometimes you say you are interesting, and another moment you say you are boring, I think the prime minister is the most interesting." After speaking, the two laughed together.

Although Sima Rong lived in poverty in the palace, he had a close brother, Sima Shan. Sima Shan was an inquisitor, and any disturbance outside would reach his ears.

I don't know whether it's because the rumors are wrong or the emperor's brother used the wrong words. Sima Rong always thought that Wang Shuzhi was a hypocritical and cunning person, but when he saw it today, he felt that he was different from what he imagined, so he asked: "The prime minister has a good temper? "

"That's natural." Another maid replied with a smile, "In the entire capital, no one can match the prime minister in terms of demeanor, and no one can match the prime minister in terms of temper."

Sima Rong nodded slightly, and when the steward came over, he stepped out of the threshold to meet him.

"The prime minister asked you to accompany him to serve, then you will live in the side room of the main courtyard with the pavilions and pavilions. Come with me."

Sima Rong didn't expect that such a day would happen to him, and he didn't know which one was more downcast compared with his previous life, so he laughed at himself and replied, "Yes."
