Chapter 85 I have something to ask you

Chongxiu approached his sister, his eyes showing love, "It's not easy for you to leave the palace on weekdays. You can only go out with the permission of the emperor or Empress Changsun. Now that you have become my disciple, you finally have a reason to come out and get some fresh air. It's better than facing those empty palaces in the palace."

At this time, Princess Changle was so anxious that she was turning around in front of the fortune-telling stall. When she saw Chongxiu, she felt like she saw a savior: "Teacher, you are finally here. If I don't see you again, I will go to Matou Village to find you!"

Looking at the renovation, Princess Changle showed a relieved smile on her face, and her anxiety gradually turned into relief. "I have something to talk to you about."

At this moment, the sun shines on Ling Xiang, her eyes sparkle with mischief, her lips slightly upturned, revealing a hint of temptation. Xi'er is beside her, her ears slightly red, her chest rises and falls slightly with her gentle breathing, seeming to be both excited and nervous about the upcoming changes.

Xie Xiu sat upright, put the sign aside, sat on a worn orange, and asked Princess Changle: "Princess, why are you so happy?" Princess Changle, with a smile on her face, replied: "Nothing, I just want to see the teacher as soon as possible, and I'm anxious." Xie Xiu listened and smiled slightly, as if he saw through her thoughts, and teased: "Are you bored at home? Take this opportunity to come out for some fresh air?" Princess Changle heard this, her face instantly turned red like a ripe apple, and her head drooped slightly.

Seeing this, Xu Luo laughed and reminded, "Okay, stop making trouble. A distinguished guest will be here soon." Princess Changle was stunned. She thought to herself, who else can be called a distinguished guest besides her father? She couldn't help but wonder, is there anyone in the world more distinguished than her father? Matthew just nodded and didn't explain much.

Princess Changle grumbled, bent down and began to clean up the sundries near the fortune-telling stall. Her eyes were like autumn water, her skin was like snow, and the part of her neck and chest that was accidentally exposed when she bent down was full of temptation. On weekdays, Liu Quan, the vegetable seller next door, would come to help early, but he didn't come these two days because he went home to accompany his wife to give birth. So these trivial matters had to be handled by Princess Changle herself. While she was busy, her willow-like waist and slender legs made people unable to help but look at them a few more times.

As Princess Changle was concentrating on tidying up the fortune-telling stall, her hair fluttered gently in the wind, making her look particularly charming.

Du Ruhui's carriage rumbled in, breaking the tranquility of the courtyard. Xu Luo looked up and couldn't help laughing. This laugh made Du Ruhui confused. After a while, Princess Changle walked out of the carriage, holding a broom, her posture was elegant and playful. She glanced back, her eyes moving, as if asking: "Hey, who is this?"

As soon as Du Ruhui got off the car, he saw Master Xu Luo and his apprentice, looking at him with a smile. Xu Luo was even more calm, with a faint smile on the corner of his lips, as if he had seen through everything.

However, what made Du Ruhui dumbfounded was the figure of Princess Changle sweeping the floor. You know, this is the darling of Emperor Li II, a princess of his rank. In the past, she had never even personally served tea to her, but now she was waving a broom in the courtyard, her chest rising and falling slightly with the movement, and beads of sweat hanging on her neck, which looked quite moving.

Du Ruhui thought to himself that he might be able to witness the spectacle of His Majesty Li Er wiping the table himself soon. When he thought of this, he couldn't help but imagine the scene and couldn't help laughing.

"Hey, Lao Du, please come this way. If you hadn't come, I would have been too lazy to open the shop today!" Xu Luo greeted warmly.

Du Ruhui was stunned for a moment, then he also laughed, as if he was infected by the sudden joyful atmosphere.

Du Ruhui walked briskly to Xu Luo, sat down on the chair opposite him, and said with a mysterious smile: "Ha, Mr. Han, you are really smart. You actually knew that I would come to see you today."

Xu Luo looked at him with a hint of teasing in his eyes, as if he was looking at an old naughty boy: "Oh? Brother Du, didn't you come to me for that fortune-telling today?" Du Ruhui waved his hand and said seriously: "Ahem, ahem, let's not talk about fortune-telling today. To be honest, I have an old friend who is in business. He told me that the Ministry of War is recruiting soldiers recently. I remembered that you were interested in joining the Ministry of War, so I took the initiative to help him get a connection and find a position for you in the Ministry of War."

Xu Luo was stunned and raised his eyebrows slightly, obviously a little surprised.

Du Ruhui went on to say: "But I can't make the decision on this matter, so I came here specially to ask for your opinion." After saying this, his eyes were fixed on Xu Luo, as if he was trying to find the answer from his expression.

Du Ruhui has been unable to sleep at night these days, especially after Zhangsun Wuji came back from Hedong Road, he was even more worried. Xu Luo's talent is obvious to all. If Xu Luo enters the officialdom, no matter which of the three provinces or six ministries he is in, he will be very successful and have a bright future.

Du Ruhui had his own plan in mind. If Xu Luo could be brought into the Ministry of War, it would undoubtedly be a great help to the Ministry of War. He thought about it over and over again all night last night.

At this time, the female character next to her pursed her lips gently, her eyes moving, full of temptation. Her chest rose and fell slightly, as if she was also full of curiosity and expectation about whether Xu Luo could enter the Ministry of War.

Xu Luo noticed her gaze and was slightly moved, but his face remained calm. He just responded calmly: "Brother Du, I am very grateful for your kindness. But I still need to think about the matter of the Ministry of War."

Du Ruhui was anxious, like an ant on a hot pot. He had to meet Xu Luo again before Wei Zheng, Zhangsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling. He thought that if he could persuade that guy, he could sleep peacefully.

"I have to hurry!" Du Ruhui muttered to himself.

"Oh, Lao Du!" Xu Luo smiled when he saw him, "You are worthy of our friendship. You still thought of me when such a good thing happened."

Du Ruhui was about to speak, but Xu Luo put on a bitter face and continued, "But you also know that I am used to being casual. I just bought a small courtyard in the suburbs a few days ago. My sister and I are planning to enjoy a quiet life. If I were to go to the Ministry of War now, I'm really afraid that I wouldn't be able to adapt."

Xu Luo's words were three parts joking and seven parts serious, and Du Ruhui knew what was going on. Du Ruhui sighed secretly, thinking that this result should have been expected, but when he really heard Xu Luo say it himself, he still felt a little uncomfortable.

"Brother Han, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!" Du Ruhui still did not give up.

Xu Luo just smiled lightly, with a hint of determination in his eyes, "I know, but I really don't have this plan now."
