I was Idle and Cool Chapter 63: spare tire
"Eldest son, is this person wrong?"
Meng Ji had also read the list, and when he thought about it, he knew who Gu Juefei was referring to, and he couldn't help but ask.
Several gentlemen in the room also turned their heads, a little curious.
Gu Juefei did not answer for the time being.
He looked away from these three words, but after pondering it carefully, he shook his head at Meng Ji, handed the book back, and said, "There's nothing wrong, just follow the previous instructions. The plan is to go down and preside over the exam.”
"Previous plan", as soon as these five words came out, Meng Ji felt his brows twitch.
He took the book and retreated, but in his heart, it was inevitable that he would mourn for Xue Chi, the little overlord who didn't know he had been targeted by the bad guys.
Ji Zhiyin, who was sitting on the armchair, looked at Gu Juefei thoughtfully before asking, "Who is it?"
"Who else could it be?"
Gu Juefei laughed nonchalantly, hooked the jade flute with his finger, turned it around, walked back to the crowd, and sat down.
"The concubine of General Xue Kuang, the general's mansion, should be heard by all gentlemen."
Everyone was stunned and stunned.
Although they are old, they still remember what happened in the capital back then.
Xue Kuang did that inappropriately, and it was Lu Jiuling, who belonged to the civil servant Qingliu at the time. The civil service group and the military officer group were quite incompatible at that time.
Xue Kuang's concubine, isn't that half of the alien bloodline born of that Orchid!
But the rumors in the capital have always been that the general's mansion doesn't want to see this concubine? Besides, he is still a lame "heavenly disabled" who cannot be used much.
Now it even appears on Xue Zhai's exam roster?
Everyone couldn't help but look at each other, and there was some silence in the room for a while.
Ji Zhiyin glanced at Gu Juefei and asked, "What do you think?"
What do you think?
Gu Juefei heard the words, but glanced out the window. Lu Jinxi's figure had long since disappeared. But just now she was downstairs and he was standing on it, but he saw everything clearly.
Besides Lu Jinxi, besides Xue Chi, there was also a handsome young man.
He was surprised at first, thinking he was a rival in love.
After all, she looks like she is 18 or 19 years old, and her appearance and behavior are all first-class. But after a closer look, I found that the other party's movements when walking were not very convenient, but he was a lame man.
At that time, he realized that it was not a rival in love, but the son of an old enemy.
Although the young man and Lu Jinxi made him feel a little weird and uncomfortable for some reason, on the whole he had no prejudice against him.
Hearing Ji Zhiyin's question, Gu Juefei's face was indifferent, and he only said: "Although this son is not of my race, but his name is written after Xue Chi, the son of the great general, presumably the two came here together, the general's mansion does not I won't know about it. I'm not too taboo when I accept students, so I'd better handle it as an ordinary person. I wonder what you gentlemen think?"
Actually, Xue Tingzhi has half the blood of foreign races after all.
But Gu Juefei said it all. The young man who didn't reach the crown this year can't hinder them, so he didn't refute, but nodded.
"This is very true, and I have no opinion."
Only Ji Zhiyin glanced at Gu Juefei, and for some reason, he laughed inexplicably, with an intriguing meaning.
When Gu Juefei saw it, he just smiled and didn't say anything.
Apart from him, no one else noticed this little detail, but soon resumed talking about poetry.
Gu Juefei sat between them and did not participate.
The jade flute between his fingers twirled gently. He seemed to be listening carefully, but only he knew that when people are here, their thoughts have long since flown away.
Upstairs is Hongru talking and laughing, downstairs is orderly, and outside, there is a beautiful landscape.
Many people were still waiting near the Yuewei Museum, but some people, like Lu Jinxi, sent their family in, then dispersed to find a place to play.
Lu Jinxi took the two maids of Egret Qingque and returned along the original road.
The Sanxian Temple at the foot of the mountain has become more and more lively.
Because of the opening of the Yuewei Museum today, many people chose to "strike the iron while the iron is hot" and prayed for their children in the temple.
Lu Jinxi had just walked up the steps, and before she had time to go in, when she looked up, she saw a crowd of people inside, people next to people, people crowding people, and people shouting something loudly.
But the surrounding noise was so loud that the shouting was almost instantly drowned out.
A Sanxian Temple is actually more lively than the street!
Still supporting her egret, she was immediately dumbfounded: "No, isn't it? There are so many people? How do we go in and find the third young lady?"
But Wei Xian said that she was burning incense at the Sanxian Temple, and when Lu Jinxi sent Brother Chi and Xue Tingzhi to take the exam, they still met here and went to play together.
Nowadays there are so many people, where can I still see Wei Xian's shadow?
"It's definitely not going to work." Lu Jinxi sighed and made a wise decision, "We weren't in a hurry to burn incense at the Sanxian Temple, we just wanted to travel around the mountains and water. There are many people in the temple in front of us. There are not many people walking around in the back garden, so why don't you just walk around here. The three younger siblings shouldn't go too far."
The Sanxian Temple was only a small temple at the time, but as the incense came down, it gradually grew and expanded into a garden.
Its original intention is for people who go up the mountain to play.
It's just that there is a beautiful small Zhongshan at the top of the head and the clear Baiyue Lake at the foot, and the scenery in the garden is eclipsed.
For many years, people only come here to offer incense, but very few go to the garden.
Even if the people in the Sanxian Temple are crowded like this, most of them choose to climb the mountain or swim in the lake after offering the incense, and rarely stay in the garden.
Therefore, the corridor on the side of the Sanxian Temple leading to the back garden is particularly deserted.
Lu Jinxi made an agreement with Wei Xian to meet at the Sanxian Temple, but this younger brother and sister are spoiled and unlikely to be crowded with others.
It may be in the back garden, but it may be gone.
Anyway, Lu Jinxi didn't care too much, and just followed his own mind and took the path that was convenient for him.
Although Egret Qingque didn't think it would be good to not go to incense, but looking at the crowd, they couldn't help but feel numb in their scalps. For a while, they had no reason to refute Lu Jinxi, so they directly followed in her footsteps.
The hallway on the side is obviously a few years old.
It is estimated that because there are few tourists, it has not been renovated much. The pillars on both sides have faded, and the wooden chairs on the promenade for people to sit on have cracked marks.
Lu Jinxi turned a corner and felt that the noises were reduced and the world was clean.
Except for her, there are really few people here.
This garden was originally built around the foot of the mountain.
There are all kinds of flowers, plants and trees in the interior, all with a natural wild interest, but there are not many types, and it seems that they have not been pruned. There are even green vines entwined in the corners.
Several stone paths spread out, with moss growing in the gaps.
There's nothing outstanding, and it even feels deserted compared to the liveliness ahead.
But natural, quiet.
For Lu Jinxi at the moment, these are very rare.
She randomly picked a stone path and walked up.
The egret followed her left and couldn't help muttering: "Madam, why don't you seem worried at all? I see the ladies outside, all of them are eager to stay in the Yuewei Museum. You still have time to spare. Going to the garden?"
"I can't control things like the opening exam." Lu Jinxi was really leisurely, walking casually, "We just need to wait for the result."
The egret suddenly became helpless and did not understand very well.
Qing Que knows that Lu Jinxi is actually very rational now, and this kind of thinking is understandable, but what she cares about is a little different from the egret.
Because Lu Jinxi's attitude towards Xue Tingzhi has obviously improved recently, and she is not as secretive as before, she just asked with a little caution: "Then... where is the eldest son?"
Unexpectedly, as soon as those words fell, Lu Jinxi's leisurely footsteps suddenly stopped.
Qing Que was taken aback immediately, thinking that she had violated her taboo by saying the wrong thing, and she was a little frightened, so she was about to apologize.
But when I looked up, I realized that something didn't seem right.
Lu Jinxi did stop, but didn't turn to look at her, even as if he didn't hear her at all.
The originally stretched brows have now been tightened, looking in a certain direction ahead.
Front?
Qing Que was a little surprised for a while, and could not help but follow Lu Jinxi's gaze and looked forward.
The front is a winding corridor.
The flowers and trees in the garden are unpruned and appear extremely lush. Standing on the stone path, they could only see the faint outline of the corridor, and occasionally a section was revealed.
But at this moment, there is actually a figure sitting on the lower rail of the porch, leaning against the old post with mottled paint behind.
Snow-white robes wrapped his sturdy body.
However, a piece of clothing hangs down the edge of the rail and hangs among the low holly branches next to it.
His youthful face still had an uninhibited taste, which made people feel frivolous and frivolous. A verdant holly leaf was held between his two thin lips, as if he was just holding it pointlessly.
A thin old scar is carved out of the corner of the eye.
Both eyes seemed to be empty, looking at a place on the corridor, there was nothing and nothingness.
Qing Que was a little dazed when he saw him, and didn't recognize his identity.
But Lu Jinxi only saw a silhouette from the side, and then looked at the white robe, and already knew who it was.
Short lines.
After the mediation of Princess Yongning, she was transferred to Lord Jinwu Weifang, who was guarding the gate of the palace.
Why is he here?
Lu Jinxi's impression of this person is not very good.
Although the records of this person's achievements in the dossier are too beautiful to be picked on, they are even better than those of Xue Kuang back then. But when it comes to dealing with people, he can't even be half of Xue Kuang, and people don't like it in the file.
Not to mention that on Changshun Street that day, he looked at himself and was not friendly.
The blue sparrow beside him is about to ask something when he opens his mouth.
Lu Jinxi noticed it, but her tight brows didn't loosen, she just waved her hand, indicating that she didn't need to speak, then turned around, stopped walking forward, and wanted to follow the same path back.
Unexpectedly, just after she turned around and walked out three steps, there was a shout from behind: "Mrs. General?"
The tail rises, hiding surprise.
Lu Jinxi was in a bad mood when she heard it.
The steps that were taken, had to be retracted and looked back.
Fang Shaoxing, who was sitting on the railing with his legs bent, had taken off the holly leaf he was carrying and held it in his hand, but his eyes were on Lu Jinxi's side.
There was a bit of uncertainty in her eyes, but the moment she turned around, it disappeared.
I thought it was dizziness just now, so I tentatively shouted.
Unexpectedly...
It's true.
It's just that she doesn't seem to like her very much?
Fang Shaoxing is a good player in marching and fighting. Although he is disliked by others, he is not unreasonable. On the contrary, he got through.
It's just that he thinks he's big enough to not need to think about it.
Now that Lu Jinxi looks and looks like this, he can naturally see a clue of one or two points. But the beautiful woman stood in the garden, her eyebrows frowned slightly, and it was a rare beauty.
Fang Shaoxing's mind suddenly passed a lot of things.
For example, the story told by Xue Kuang's stupid son Xue Chi, such as the brave Xue Kuang and the soldiers in the story, such as himself who never appeared in the story...
It is clear that he is the first record under Xue Kuang!
Did this general's wife forgot about him, or because she didn't want to see him, so she didn't make up a story and didn't include him?
Thinking about it, there is always a strange imbalance and discomfort.
Fang Shaoxing stared at her, but smiled suddenly.
My eyes were full of jokes.
Stretching out his arms, his body is strong, he easily landed at the bottom of the corridor in the blink of an eye, and walked towards Lu Jinxi: "Not long ago, I came to thank you for the incident in the DPRK, but Madam is busy with things, so I didn't I see. I happened to meet my wife today, but I saw that my wife was in a hurry and was in a hurry. Could it be that I have encountered some trouble?"
Although he is called "Mrs.", there is really not much respect in the words. And he stood close to Lu Jinxi, but he didn't even mean to salute, which was extremely rude.
Not to mention, this person's gaze was so unscrupulous that it fell directly on Lu Jinxi's face!
Egret and Qingque stood behind, frowning immediately.
But the opposite is Lu Jinxi.
She frowned originally, but after meeting Fang Shaoxing's gaze, she raised it slightly, and then slowly released it.
A strange smile appeared on the lips.
Lu Jinxi looked at Fang Shaoxing in front of him, with a bit of inquiry in his eyes: "I didn't encounter trouble, it's just the person who encountered trouble."
"Oh?"
Fang Shaoxing raised his eyebrows, connecting with the old scar at the corner of his long and narrow eyes, and moved with him, but his lips were raised evilly.
"Madam is the first order of the imperial court, who would dare to trouble you?"
Who dares?
Lu Jinxi lowered her eyes, raised her eyes again, and looked at Fang Shaoxing with interest: "Isn't it right in front of you?"
At that moment, Fang Shaoxing was startled, and then he couldn't help laughing.
When he was talking to Lu Jinxi, he guessed that she was referring to him, but he didn't expect her to say it so frankly.
On Changshun Street that day, this incompetent and cowardly general's wife had already impressed him with admiration.
Now...
But it made him develop a desire that powerful men often have for beautiful and smart women.
Fang Shaoxing has always been a fierce horse.
He's not good at covering himself, much less like covering himself.
Discreet and rambunctious.
After laughing, he looked at Lu Jinxi's eyes with a kind of secret heat: "It seems that someone else has disturbed the lady's viewing of the garden, and she will have to make amends for her."
Where can Lu Jinxi not understand Fang Shaoxing's eyes?
If there is no such thing as Gu Juefei, she is actually interested in this grass. But now, since she has decided to fight wits and bravery with that painted skin demon, she may at most be able to stick two words on this person's forehead—
Spare tire.
As soon as her mind changed, she smiled sincerely: "Master Fang is joking, you are Jin Wuwei, it's not the loss, I can't afford it."
At this moment, Fang Shaoxing felt as if he had been stung by a scorpion's tail, and the poison had penetrated into his heart in the blink of an eye.
A sentence of "expensive"...
There is no more poignant irony than this.
In the past, he was also a general for the first time, and he had real power.
I came back to Beijing, but the more I got involved, the more I went back. Instead, I became a Jin Wuwei guarding the gate!
Women's heart, scorpion tail needle.
Lu Jinxi's sentence can't be described as vicious.
But he likes it.
Even fascinated.
For a while, he remembered the hot discussion in the capital recently, and he suddenly felt suffocated in the bottom of his heart. He couldn't hold it back. Thinking that she was the wife of Xue Kuang's widow, he couldn't help but ask: "Not long after, the Hun envoy The regiment is about to go to Beijing to discuss peace. Madam should have heard of it, I don't know what to think?"
