)

The junior sister ignored him for two days.

Ouyang Rong thought carefully and realized that he really shouldn't have "violated women's wishes" that afternoon.

It was just that at that time, she could clearly kick him away, but she didn't resist in any substantial way. She even cooperated and put on thin silk stockings. Ouyang Rong was not sure whether she liked it or not.

Moreover, in the second half of the process, the junior sister transformed into a little ostrich, with her head buried in her chest and silent, so Ouyang Rong could only take it as his acquiescence.

In the past two days, he took the time to come to visit, but was rejected. The reason was that he, Li Bao'er and Qin Ying went to attend the chrysanthemum appreciation banquet and didn't have time to see anyone. I don't know if he was too shy to meet anyone temporarily.

Ouyang Rong didn't think much about it and devoted himself to official business in Jiangzhou Hall these two days.

That day, in the evening, he went to Prince Xunyang's Mansion again to attend the study meeting. Li Xian's family, Lu Ya, and his junior sister were all there.

However, during the discussion, the junior sister was as cold as ice the whole time, standing next to Li Guo'er and not looking at him.

This reaction made Li Guo'er's eyes look strange, and his eyes flickered between Ouyang Rong and Xie Lingjiang.

Ouyang Rong coughed and pretended that nothing happened.

The recent discussions in the study mainly focused on three things, the battle report on the counter-insurgency front line, the trends in the Luoyang court, and... the progress of the blind date between Li Dalang and the daughter of the Qin family.

After a meeting, the battle situation reported from the front line of Hongzhou, Qin Jingqin and the conquest army was quite smooth so far.

There is nothing major going on at the Luoyang court. It is worth noting that Empress Wei has recently begun to take the initiative to ask about the progress of Songde Tianshu of the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Buddha statues in the four directions, and she attaches great importance to it.

Ouyang Rong discussed with Li Xian and felt that Jiangzhou must also speed up the progress.

Finally, everyone's topic came to Li Dalang's marriage-promoting blind date session, which was very popular.

Li Xian, Wei Mei cross-examined with an expectant look on her face. The news she received was mediocre and there was no progress. The couple looked a little disappointed.

Li Baoer tapped his chin with his finger, squinted his eyes to analyze, and gave Li Dalang some advice.

The junior sister, who was as cold as ice today and showed no affection at all, did not interrupt.

Li Xian hesitated for a moment, but still gave some advice to his eldest son:

"Da Lang needs to be more careful about this matter. Let go of studying first. Now you have a family first. It's not as good as before when you were busy studying in the study. Now after all, you are in Jiangzhou. You are not bad. There is no need to feel inferior when facing the daughter of the Qin family.

, if you need any support, just ask and we will help you."

Nagging, Li Dalang nodded helplessly.

Li Xian paused for a moment, and in front of his wife, son, daughter, Ouyang Rong, Xie Lingjiang, Lu Ya and others, he looked up out of the window, stroking his beard and sighed:

"I think back when I was a prince in Chang'an, but the famous handsome man in the 108th Street of Chang'an had many women and girls who had secretly flirted with him. He is not much less famous than Tanlang in Luoyang City now."

As he was sipping tea, Ouyang Rong glanced at his junior sister from the corner of his eye. He covered his mouth and coughed. He quickly put down the tea cup and wiped the corners of his mouth. He almost spit out a mouthful of tea just now.

Everyone looked sideways.

Li Xian pretended not to see Tan Lang's plaintive look, "Uncle, please just brag and don't mention me." Li Xian's face was a bit hush-y:

"How could I not be able to win over a girl from the Qin family when I'm handsome? It's easy to imagine that I have enough conditions, but I just lack experience. So, you'd better ask Tan Lang for advice. He's extraordinarily handsome, and he's young and promising.

I must have seen a lot of butterflies and bees, so I must be proficient in them.

"As for what Guo'er said, just listen and refer to it. She doesn't have much experience. Although she said one thing, it is not convincing. Just listen and you will understand. You can make your own decision."

Ouyang Rong: "..."

Li Guo'er: "...?"

Li Dalang was stunned: "I thought my father wanted to teach me."

Li Xian, who had been stared at by Wei Mei with half-smiling eyes since just now, scolded him with a straight face and spoke righteously:

"What nonsense are you talking about? As a father, I have forgotten all these things a long time ago. I have not been in love for many years. I am now a father. I am a celibate person. I have nothing to teach you. If you get married and want to learn how to maintain harmony between husband and wife, you can.

Come and ask my father."

Li Dalang scratched his head.

Wei Mei did not let go of her sweet-tongued husband and sneered:

"If someone is really an expert in love, why can't he even control his old lover now? One person's love debt will affect everyone in vain."

Li Xian had no choice but to beg for mercy: "Mei Niang, I really have nothing to do with her, and I have never even started talking about debts? That female officer Miaozhen, for some unknown reason, has been holding a grudge to this day."

Wei Mei nodded and praised strangely: "It's not because Qi Lang is a famous handsome man in Chang'an 108th Street. Even if you are rejected by someone who has unrequited love, you won't be able to let go."

"No, no, in fact, this is still not as good as Tan Lang..." Li Xian was only obedient.

Ouyang Rong couldn't help but put down his teacup:

"Uncle and aunt, Da Lang, actually I'm not good at this either. I'm an honest person. I'm not an expert in love. You've got me wrong. You may have misunderstood me."

Xie Lingjiang suddenly spoke, which was the most fatal: "Who said a few days ago that I should call Da Lang."

"Uh." Ouyang Rong was immediately embarrassed.

Covering his fists and coughing, he turned his head and said to Li Dalang, who was looking curiously:

"I have some bad opinions, but after thinking about it today I still don't want to show my shame, so come on, Dalang."

Xie Lingjiang snorted lightly, and Wei Mei and Li Guo'er exchanged glances.

The three women could see that all the men were boastful and boastful, and they would act like dog-headed military advisors to others.

Li Guo'er curled her lips, not as good as her, a master of theory.

After a while, the discussion in the study room ended and everyone dispersed.

When Ouyang Rong walked out, he originally wanted to ask his junior sister how her recent chrysanthemum appreciation banquet went, and whether she was well-mannered and so on.

As a result, when I came to the corridor, I couldn't see that beautiful figure. After the meeting, it seemed that she left coldly as soon as possible, not giving anyone a chance.

Ouyang Rong had no choice but to take out a stack of books from his sleeve and looked down.

After knowing his junior sister's needs, he spent the past few nights browsing the bookshelves and found all the poetry collections he could find, thinking that his junior sister might be able to use them.

After thinking for a while, he chatted with Lu Ya and said goodbye. After getting away from everyone, Ouyang Rong went to a certain boudoir in the mansion alone.

Seeing that there were no lights on in Xie Lingjiang's boudoir, Ouyang Rong was a little disappointed. No one was there. He might have gone back to Jingyi Court to rest tonight.

Ouyang Rong walked into the deserted boudoir, put the pile of poems he had carefully dug out on the stone table in the courtyard, pressed it with a teapot, and turned around to leave.

Just after leaving the hospital, Ouyang Rong bumped into Li Guo'er and Cai Shou, who were returning to the boudoir.

I saw this little princess with plum blossom makeup walking at the front, holding an elegant lantern in her hand, emitting a faint fluorescent green light. There seemed to be a bunch of fireflies inside. It was more of a lady's object than a lantern.

Ouyang Rong's eyes met hers in the air.

Li Guoer glanced at the dark courtyard behind Ouyang Rong:

"Sister Xie seemed to have left the house directly after the meeting."

Ouyang Rong nodded: "Just put some books, she needs to read them, she'll be fine."

Li Bao'er nodded lightly and asked, "It's cold outside, Mr. Ouyang, can you go in and have a cup of tea?"

Ouyang Rong shook his head: "No, I just have something to ask Da Lang, so I'll go over there."

Li Guo'er said softly "Oh" without asking any more questions. Without saying a word, she carried the small firefly cage, passed Ouyang, took the colorful ribbon and other maids and left, entering the boudoir.

The question I just asked seemed to be just to be polite.

Ouyang Rong didn't pay attention. Her Royal Highness the little princess had such a temper, and she was used to it.

Speaking of which, since the incident of going to the wrong boudoir to give the wrong love umbrella last time, the two of them have not had much personal interaction, and they have a tacit understanding to keep their distance, and they only chat a few words when discussing matters in the study.

Ouyang Rong turned around and left, looking for Li Dalang in a familiar way.

After he left, the boudoir belonging to Li Guo'er behind him became brightly lit.

Walking into the boudoir, Li Bao'er handed the firefly cage to Cai Shou, gave a few instructions, and went up to the tall building alone.

Cai Shou and other maids did not follow.

There were no lights in the boudoir, and in the darkness, with bright plum blossoms on her forehead, she lifted some clothes with both hands and silently climbed up the stairs.

From downstairs, there was a faint sound of laughter from the little maid with a steamed bun face and other maids releasing fireflies in the open space.

Li Guo'er lowered his eyes and came to the third floor, pushed open the door and entered the study.

Without lighting the lamp, she walked to the bookshelf and opened a secret compartment.

Inside, two pill boxes and a piece of red paper lay quietly.

The two elixir boxes are made of jade and nanmu.

The jade elixir box is a gift from the Taiqing Dynasty; the nanmu elixir box is a gift from the Yuqing Dynasty.

The red paper next to the two pill boxes looked crumpled, but it was flattened and folded neatly.

Li Guoer stared at the red paper of marriage for a while, then reached out and took out the jade box given by Master Taiqing. There were two strangely smelly golden elixirs in it.

Playing with the jade box with her bare hands, she walked to the window, lowered her eyes, as if staring at the night, or looking in the direction of someone without looking back, and suddenly hummed softly.

"If I don't drink it, I won't bother to give it to you...it depends on your mood."
