Lu Xi woke up to the sound of hawking, and the moment he opened his eyes, he was still a little confused. The noise next to his ears was much more noisy than the silence in the deep palace, but to his surprise, he had a good rest last night. .

Just as he was about to move, he found that the room for movement was a bit narrow. He looked to his side, and met a pair of dark and innocent eyes. Lu Xi chuckled softly, "Good morning, Xun'er."

The hoarse voice pierced Wu Xun's ears, Wu Xun's ears were half red, and he stumbled: "Morning, morning."

"It's hot?" Lu Xi deliberately teased him, and poked his fingers on his earlobe.

Wu Xun forced himself to be calm and said, "Yes, a little bit, can you let me go first?"

With another chuckle, Lu Xun loosened the arm clasped around Wu Xun's waist through the quilt, and Wu Xun broke free from the quilt instantly like a cat: "I, I'm going to practice sword."

Lu Xi propped his chin and looked at the long stick dangling on the bed frame, and couldn't help laughing again.

This laughter directly startled Ning Bo, who had woken up early, he shook the tray he was holding and nearly knocked over, and couldn't help but slander the young master, was someone tapped his laughing point?And at this moment, a gust of wind blew past Ning Bo and came back, a darker-skinned hand held the tray firmly: "I'll help you."

The wind had settled down, and Ning Bo looked at Wu Xun who was standing still in front of him, and said with a smile: "This is the utensils for the young master's washing, you..." Just when he was about to say that the one prepared for Wu Xun hadn't been brought yet, he woke up again. The wind picked up, and the tray that had been taken off his hand was stuffed back into his hand, leaving only one sentence in the wind: "I, I'm going to practice sword."

Ning Bo couldn't help but add: "For practicing martial arts, you can go to the front yard, that's the direction of the well in the backyard—" As a result, the wind was not slow but fast.

Seeing Wu Xun's figure disappeared, Ning Bo walked back into the inner room, his eyes kept on the fragrant soup on the tray, and said respectfully: "This old slave pays tribute to Your Highness."

Lu Xi stretched out his hand to support him, and waved his hand: "Since Uncle Ning called me young master, then you and I are the relationship between young master and the manager, and there is no need to mention the red tape in the palace." Uncle Ning was his father when he was still the prince. When he was with the personal eunuch beside his father, and later all the way to the chief eunuch, he also watched Lu Xi grow up, so Lu Xi also respected him a lot.At the beginning of this year, Ning Bo fell ill and asked for an order to resign. His father originally allowed him to leave the palace for the elderly next month. It happened that this time Lu Xi didn't bring out anyone from the palace except the dark guard, so The emperor directly asked Lu Xi to bring Ning Bo with him.In fact, he was secretly taking care of Director Ning. After all, going out of the palace with the crown prince was considered a business trip, so if he was not used to living outside the palace during this period of time and wanted to go back to the palace and report in private, it would be fine.However, Lu Xi felt that Ning Bo would not return to the palace, he was much more energetic now than in the palace.

Just like what Lu Xi said, Uncle Ning watched him grow up, so Uncle Ning also understands Lu Xi's habits. Using the hands of the waiter, Ning Bo put the tray on a low table next to the bed and stepped aside.

"Ning Bo, have you ever been to Jiangnan?"

Ning Bo was stunned for a moment, and immediately realized that the Jiangnan mentioned by Lu Xi was not simply referring to Jiangnan: "Young master, this old slave went to Qinghe Town with the master."

"Grandpa raised a pond of fish, and those fish were much more lively than those in the Imperial Garden." Lu Xi picked up a handkerchief beside him and wiped off the water droplets on his hand.

Ning Bo also smiled and said: "They are very close relatives. The old slave stood by the pool and they came to the old slave. Later, Eunuch Shen reminded the old slave that they are steamed buns in the hands of the greedy slave."

Speaking here, Ning Bo's voice paused, and he looked at Lu Xi with a little nervousness.

However, Lu Xi didn't seem to feel that there was anything wrong, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help but rise: "Well, grandma has always been insightful."

After Lu Xi finished washing and getting dressed, he heard the sound of water coming from the backyard. He smiled happily and took off the long stick from the bed frame. He imagined it was much heavier, and he reached out and flicked the surface of the long stick, and immediately understood it somewhat.

The material of this stick is not made of ebony at all, it just looks like ebony in color, and its hardness is more like some kind of black iron.Unlike gold and silver, the surface of the long stick does not reflect light, and even all the light is absorbed into it when it comes into contact with it, which makes people feel like a wooden stick.

Lu Xi picked up the long stick and went out of the room, intending to find the little black skin who claimed to practice swords.

But Ning Bo stared at Lu Xi's back, feeling a little uneasy.What the young master just said

Are the words really just small talk?He could hear the longing in the words.But the current Holy Majesty only has this pair of sons and daughters. His Highness the Crown Prince was named the Crown Prince at the first year of his life. He has never made a mistake. Even though he has been deliberately suppressed by the Rightist Party in recent years, the position of Crown Prince has always been stable.If His Highness wanted to retire like the Supreme Emperor, what would happen to Dayu's country?

Ning Bo knew that he had no right to comment, but he couldn't help but raise his heart.

***

In the backyard at this moment, the boy was washing his face with well water. Rather than washing his face, he was taking a bath, because everything from his hair to his shirt was soaked.

The cold well water calmed him down completely, and the redness in his face before had completely faded away now, and he never thought that sleeping on his feet would be so embarrassing.At that time, he was still on the mountain, and the brothers who were close to each other often went to sleep talking with candles at night. At that time, he thought that if he met Xiaoxuan, he must try it.But those classmates didn't seem to be as embarrassed as he was after getting up. Could it be that he was thinking too much?Or is it the first time in your life that you are inevitably a little shy?

Wu Xun suddenly fell into a battle between heaven and man. Should the matter of falling asleep on his feet be like practicing martial arts?Or should I give up decisively like learning poetry and songs?

Just when he was struggling, he saw the hem of the white clothes. When he looked up, Lu Xi was already standing in front of him. Lu Xi raised his eyebrows, and reached out to touch his forehead: "Are you okay?"

"No, no." Wu Xun's redness that had just faded rolled onto his cheeks again. At this time, he could only secretly rejoice that he was not white, otherwise he would be ashamed. Just as he was thinking about it, the hand on his forehead suddenly brushed down. To his cheek, wiped. "Why is it so red? Fever? I'll go to the doctor."

"No, no, no." Wu Xun hurriedly pressed his hand, "I'm just a little hot."

hot?

Lu Xun raised his head, the clouds above their heads were densely covered, and the sun was tightly blocked, as if heavy rain was about to come, he felt a bit of chill when he was fully dressed, but Wu Xun was still wearing a middle coat, and his top was soaked, unexpectedly felt hot?

Wu Xun scratched his chin, and changed the subject in embarrassment: "Where are we going today?"

"Where do you want to go?"

In fact, Wu Xun didn't have any ideas. Before he came to the capital, he thought about a lot of food and entertainment, but when he saw Lu Xun, Wu Xun didn't have any ideas. An excuse for someone, or an excuse for someone else.Instinctively, Wu Xun was unwilling to think deeply, so he threw out the answer from his mouth blankly—"I want to eat delicious food."

After hearing what he said clearly, Wu Xun was a little depressed, making you greedy, huh?You are here to take the champion martial arts exam, not to be a foodie!

As expected, Lu Xun laughed loudly, Wu Xun sighed again, this time he was determined not to be ashamed anymore, he was already a calm adult!

……

"This is delicious, and this is not bad." Wu Xun felt that he didn't have enough chopsticks, so another pair of chopsticks put the fried whitebait farthest away from him into his bowl.

Wu Xun looked up at the owner of the chopsticks, swallowed everything in his mouth and asked, "Aren't you going to eat?"

"Eat." Lu Xi picked up a whitebait that he had just put down from his bowl and put it into his mouth, "It was fried very crisply."

Wu Xun felt that something was wrong, he put down his chopsticks and tilted his head to stare at Lu Xun: "Why did you put it in my bowl?"

"Wu Shaoxia is so stingy? You don't even eat fish?" Lu Xi smiled and took another piece of sophora japonica fried egg from his bowl.

Wu Xun quickly covered the mouth of his bowl, and as expected, Lu Xun also put down his chopsticks.

really……

But if it is said that they are afraid of being poisoned, Wu Xun can smell the general poison, and they all use the silver chopsticks Ning Bo prepared for them.If you say wait for yourself to try it, but not long after these small whitebait are released, before you have time to eat, you are caught and eaten by Lu Xie.Wu Xun, who was puzzled, didn't realize that when he thought of the possibility that Lu Xun was testing himself for poison, he didn't feel angry at all.This is very unusual, but Wu Xun ignores this feeling in the face of more unusual things.

Seeing the doubts on Wu Xun's face, Lu Xi finally revealed the truth: "I'm just not used to eating out."

Wu Xun guessed this point last night, so he ordered a bowl of plain noodles for him.

"But the one in my bowl is no different."

Lu Xun shook his folding fan, smiled and said nothing, the temperature on Wu Xun's cheeks rose again after laughing, and he didn't say the reason.For this reason

Lu Xun himself didn't think about it, he didn't think too much, but just looked at the things in Wu Xun's bowl and felt a little hungry for no reason.

On the painting boat where they were at the moment, the woman playing the guqin at the bow pursed her lips in joy when she saw this scene: "It's rare to see the young master has such a good appetite."

Wu Xun looked at the woman and at Lu Xun: "You two know each other?"

The woman burst into laughter, probably never expecting someone to ask such a direct question: "The young master saved Tang Lan's life, and Tang Lan serves the young master as master. Wu Shaoxia, the young master and Tang Lan are master and servant."

"Miss Tanglan." Although Wu Xun didn't quite understand why Tanglan deliberately emphasized her relationship with Lu Ling, since she knew her name, it was still necessary to say hello out of courtesy.After saying hello, he picked up the peaches in the fruit plate in front of him. The bright red peaches were already soft, as if they could be squeezed out of water.

Wu Xun started to worry again, he had eaten enough just now, and after eating the peach, which was almost twice the size of his fist, he didn't have to eat it for dinner, he hesitated and put the peach back.

Girl Tanglan propped her cheeks and added in a casual way: "These peaches were brought from the south of the Yangtze River by the fastest boat. The taste is... priceless."

Although Wu Xun is from the south of the Yangtze River, his father sent him to Shaolin to practice martial arts since he was a child, and he would go home every year during the Chinese New Year. At that time, whitebait and peaches were out of season. What Tang Lan said in his stomach The greedy worm started to make trouble again, and his hand involuntarily stretched out to Taozi again.

Miss Tanglan added: "Young hero can share with the young master if he thinks there is more."

Lu Xi, who was originally sitting leaning against the fence of the painting boat, raised his eyelids and glanced at Tang Lan.

Wu Xun immediately felt that this was a good idea. He squeezed the peach with both hands without using much force, and the peach was split into two pieces. Obviously the peach flesh was already too soft, but no juice splashed out.

Tang Lan's eyes lit up, and she praised: "The young man is very skilled."

Wu Xun quickly waved his hand, and handed half of the peach to Lu Xun, but Lu Xun didn't take it, so he took a bite of the peach with Wu Xun's hand: "It's so sweet." Then he took the peach.

Peach juice splashed down Wu Xun's fingers. When Lu Xun took out his handkerchief and was about to wipe Wu Xun clean, he saw that Wu Xun had already retracted his hand and licked the juice from his fingers very naturally. clean up.

Lu Xi suddenly felt that his voice was a little hoarse, so he opened the folding fan a few more times. The day was too stuffy, and he didn't know when the heavy rain would come down.

But the rain didn't come down until the two of them left the boat. Miss Tang Lan stood in the boat and sent them to the dock. He stretched out his hand to Lu Xi who was in the painting boat.

Miss Tanglan looked at Lu Xi's figure and bowed her knees: "Tanglan sends you off to the young master."

Lu Xi put his hands behind his back, and said lightly: "You talk too much today, so don't make an example."

Tang Lan responded, but couldn't help but say a few more words: "But the young master is obviously very happy in his heart."

Lu Xi chuckled lightly, but the laughter was very cold: "Kefentao is not a good allusion. Xun'er is not Mi Zixia, and Gu is not Wei Linggong."

Tang Lan was startled, and knelt down on the boat, "Tang Lan knows her mistake."

The bow of the boat lightened, and Lu Xi had already landed on the shore. Tang Lan raised her head and looked at the backs of the two people on the shore together.

Tang Lan couldn't help thinking that she hated heartless people the most in her life, but it never occurred to her that the person she thought was the most qualified to be ruthless in the world was the most affectionate.It's interesting to think about it, she didn't choose the right marriage but met a good master.
