Royal maid

018 the day before the imperial examination

In a blink of an eye, ten days have passed since the day He Xuan lived in Liao's house, and tomorrow is the period of comparison.

These days, Liao Yong and Zuo Liang have not come to disturb He Xuan, and even sent people to the residence according to the time. He Xuan knew in her heart that this was a kindness between the two of them. Despite this, He Xuan did not appreciate any affection.

But it's okay. She teaches Xiaodou to read every day while teaching him, while insinuing something about Zuo Liang and Liao Yong's preferences and dislikes.

This little bean is also smart. The Enlightenment of the Three-character Classic can be recited in only ten days, and there are more than 100 words that can be written.

Moreover, the child's mind is also delicate. Except for some preferences, the child's mind is also delicate. He Xuan is not reluctant. After all, for this little bean, she is just an outsider, and Liao Yong is the one who is really grateful to him. It is really valuable to have such a heart to protect the Lord.

When the day was approaching dinner, He Xuan was sitting and chatting with Xiaodouzi. Suddenly, she heard someone shouting outside, "Xiaodouzi! Are you there?"

"Alas--" The little bean heard the sound and rushed out like flying.

He Xuan also heard that this voice was the housekeeper. Thinking about it, it should be something to find Xiaodouzi. He Xuan didn't think much about it. She just sat and looked at those Mongolian books. Suddenly, she remembered the note given to her by the Taoist in the pub a few days ago.

She got up and came to the desk, sat under the inkstone and pulled out the envelope and displayed the letter paper inside.

Looking carefully, He Xuan smiled and remembered what His Royal Highness said. Thinking about it, this thing was just a trick.

Thinking about it, I saw the little bean running in with a smile.

"Sir, our young master invited you to have dinner over there."

"Oh? Shall we go there now?" He Xuan asked doubtfully.

"Yes. The prince is going to have a big show tomorrow, and our young master is going to set up a banquet for you.

He Xuan heard this and wanted to avoid it, but on second thought, it's better to go. Now she lives in Liao's house, and she still needs some socializing.

He Xuan straightened up her clothes, put the paper with the title in her sleeve pocket, and then walked to the yard where Liao Yong lived with Xiao Douzi.

When the two came to Liao Yong's room, they saw a table of rich dishes on the table, and Zuo Liang and Liao Yong were sitting in the study on one side and chatting. Hearing that the servants outside reported that He Xuan had arrived, although they did not get up, they also stopped chatting and turned their faces to look at He Xuan with a smile.

As soon as He Xuan entered the door, she first arched her hand to the two and said, "It seems that it is really unwise to decide to come to the house."

"How do you say this?" Zuo Liang asked.

"Since I moved in here, I have really disturbed the two sons a lot."

"What are you talking about?" Liao Yong said as he stood up, "All things are about fate. If you are predestined, if you don't ask for trouble, the stupid brother will ask you to reason; if you don't, I don't even want to say more words to it. In this case, don't talk about it again. Come on, let's sit down and talk while eating.

Although Zuo Liang also had a smile on his face, he didn't say anything, but just made a greeting to He Xuan.

After the three took their seats, He Xuan said with a smile, "Although I haven't left home these days, I also know that Brother Zuo has never come here."

"Oh," Zuo Liang didn't feel a burst of ecstasy when he heard He Xuan taking the initiative to talk to himself. He hurriedly replied, "Now that the injury has healed, there is no reason to be lazy anymore. I have begun to take office, so I can't come as often as before..."

Speaking of this, Zuo Liang paused and cursed himself: What am I happy about? It's just an ordinary greeting, but it seems that... It seems that He Xuan still noticed me...

"I heard people say that these days, Xiaodouzi seems to have caused a lot of trouble to his virtuous brother. I wonder if he has delayed his reading?" Liao Yong said, turned his head with a smile and looked at the little bean standing behind, and then continued, "If there is, I will be punished."

Little bean heard this and spit out his tongue with a smile.

"Where can I be disturbed? However, there are only a few books that have been read for more than ten years, and there is no need to hold Buddha's feet at the last minute. He Xuan said.

"Seeing that the wise brother is so restless, he is in his chest." Liao Yong said with a smile.

"It's better to say that you don't care than to be in the chest."

"Oh? Don't you care?" Liao Yong asked curiously, "I didn't expect that you and I would be the same person. I'm not interested in this kind of thing either.

"Yes. In fact, I don't have any interest in this comparison, but... I just try my best to do it for filial piety."

"So it is. However, brother, can the word 'below' be avoided in the future? Liao Yong said.

"Yes. It's down, and I don't feel very comfortable. What you said is reasonable." Zuo Liang also said.

"But..."

"There's nothing wrong with it. Call us two brothers, and we won't humiliate our virtuous brothers." Liao Yong said.

"How could..."

"That's the deal." Zuo Liang said, "Change that one. There is no need for those false gifts between brothers."

"That's down..." He Xuan said this, looked at the two men who were looking at her, stopped to smile, and said, "Then I will be disrespectful."

After listening to He Xuan's words, Zuo Liang and Liao Yong both smiled, and the three seats ate and chatted.

Soon, after dinner was used, the left-seats were withdrawn, and the three of them sat in the garden and chatted.

"I think you have been free recently, not like those candidates outside, who look like death." Liao Yong said with a smile.

"There is a cloud in the heart: there is no hindrance, no hindrance, no horror. If you let go of those obsessions, you won't have what you want. He Xuan said, but thought to herself: What does that false name have to do with me? Because it has nothing to do with it, it can be so easy. My heart has been elsewhere, but you don't know it.

"Do you also read Buddhist scriptures?" Zuo Liang said.

"Occasionally." He Xuan replied.

"That kind of very fantasy thing, which can't be seen or touched, how can it be believed?" Liao Yong said with a smile.

He Xuan looked at Zuo Liang sitting opposite him meaningfully, smiled faintly, and said, "Didn't Brother Liao say that he would talk about fate in everything just now? Brother Liao still believes in this 'fate', right?

"That's true. Looking at the various people on this street, there is no fate. I don't think there will be any deep friendship." Liao Yong said.

"Then the two of us are also predestined."

When Zuo Liang saw He Xuan looking at herself with a smile and said what he had just said, his heart tightened again. He quickly lowered his head and took a sip of tea.

"Buddha said that anyone who meets must have some causes. Maybe it was a previous life or this life. There must be a reason." He Xuan said.

"Then the reason why I met my virtuous brother is Ziqing." Liao Yong said with a smile.

"Yes. I just don't know what will happen in the future. He Xuan said with a deep smile.

But this is a different feeling for Zuo Liang. He peeked at He Xuan and seemed to be looking at himself with a smile, which really made Zuo Liang a little confused. He put down the teacup in his hand and asked with a smile, "When will Brother Xian go to the exam tomorrow?"

"Enter at three o'clock." He Xuan replied, "I think it's too late to leave before the beginning of the year."

"How many years can you forget after finishing the martial arts exam?" Liao Yong said with a smile.

"It's not forgetting, but not knowing whether the two are similar." Zuo Liang replied with a smile.

"So Brother Zuo was born in martial arts?" He Xuan asked with a smile.

"Ziqing's entry into an official position is not only relying on his father and aunt, but also has real learning. That's the champion of martial arts back then. Liao Yongquan ignored Zuo Liang's eyes and continued to say with a smile.

"So it is." He Xuan said with a smile, but said in her heart that Wu Zhuangyuan's kung fu was nothing more than that. It can be seen that there is really no one in this court.

"Don't just worry about joking me..." Zuo Liang blushed at Liao Yong's praise just now.

"What's going on? In the past, when you said this, you were just like nothing. Why are you twisted like a girl's house today? Liao Yongcai ignored Zuo Liang's expression and continued to joke.

"However, I don't think there will be many people selling topics at the time of martial arts." He Xuan said with a smile, but this sentence helped Zuo Liang relieve the siege.

"Oh? Has anyone sold questions to Xiandi?" Zuo Liang asked.

"There is no selling questions. However, a Taoist gave me a question. He Xuan said with a smile.

"When?" Liao Yong asked.

"That's the day I arrived at the house, when I was in the restaurant."

"Before we go?" Zuo Liang asked.

He Xuan nodded with a smile.

"What's the topic?" Liao Yong asked.

Seeing that they were interested, He Xuan took out the note from the cuff and handed it to Liao Yong.

When Liao Yong received the note, his heart suddenly moved, raised his eyebrows, raised the corners of his mouth, deliberately stretched out his hands, and held He Xuan's pair of softness.

Although He Xuan did not avoid dating a man, it was the first time she was held by a man. She wanted to withdraw her hand, but she was not sure whether she had been seen through by Liao Yong and deliberately tested herself. But if you don't withdraw, Liao Yong is not only holding it, but also kneading himself, which is really difficult for him to accept.

Just when He Xuan was in a dilemma, Zuo Liang came up and said, "What's the question? Let me see."

With that, Liao Yong, who held He Xuan, put his hands away.
