I was Idle and Cool

Chapter 53: Oh, play off

Views:

He even guessed.

Lu Jinxi was slightly surprised: "That's exactly what happened. But after a while, the eldest son really expected things like God."

"It has nothing to do with things like God."

Gu Juefei shook his head, but was amused by her few compliments: "But yesterday, during the reception, there were several gentlemen, who happened to be the gentleman of your house, Xue Xiaogong. I inquired. So when Madam asked, I guessed here."

"I see."

The front and the back are right on each other.

Lu Jinxi understood: "It's also a coincidence, the dog Xue Chi, I heard about this from a few gentlemen yesterday, and I was thinking about it, and came back to ask me. I thought that I would ask someone tomorrow, but I didn't expect it today. When I met the son, I started to ask."

Um.

In order to soak up the old grass, temporarily sacrifice the cheap son.

When Lu Jinxi said that Xue Chi was thinking about going to school, his tone was natural, and he couldn't see the slightest guilty conscience, as if it was the truth.

But Gu Juefei is not a fool.

He still heard a little about Xue Chi's situation, but he didn't expose Lu Jinxi: "Since Madam is interested, Fei Fei naturally knows everything and can't stop talking. It's just that it's a long story..."

Gu Juefei opened his mouth slowly, and at the same time put down the trap he had carefully prepared.

This happened six years ago, when several friends agreed with Mr. Ji Zhiyin from Xiangyang University to start the fasting and cultivate talents for the society.

Unexpectedly, it took six years for Gu Juefei to go up the mountain, and this matter was delayed.

Only now has it started again.

But six years have passed, and several of the old friends are already old, but they have no energy to make the scale big.

Therefore, Xuezhai accepts students, there are three rules:

First, focus on quality rather than weight, and focus on talent rather than birth.

The number of people depends on whether the students have the ability to win the eyes of the teacher. Which gentleman wants to charge more depends on their preference.

High officials and nobles, and the children of the poor family, are all treated equally.

Second, analogy to the imperial examination, open questions to test.

The gentlemen of Xuezhai each gave a question, imitating the form of the imperial examination, and selected the students by looking at the answer sheet. Maybe this gentleman doesn't like it, but another gentleman likes it. If it's not too bad, he will also be admitted to the school.

Third, the yellow hair is hanging down, regardless of age.

As long as there is a desire to seek scholars, there is no age limit. Therefore, whether it is an old man in his 70s or 80s, or a 35-year-old Huangkou child, he will be appreciated by the gentlemen when his knowledge or spirituality arrives.

"The date of the question selection is set for the second month of the second month when the dragon raises his head. Ji Lao likes the Sanxian Temple, and he just decided it yesterday, and he will take the test at the nearby Yuewei Hall to select students."

Gu Juefei sat opposite and smiled at Lu Jinxi.

"So, if Madam is interested, you can bring your son to have a try. Ji Lao accepts students and has always been eclectic. If your son has spirituality, maybe he will be accepted as a student, and he will be commensurate with my father's brothers and sisters. already."

Lu Jinxi heard that the front was fine, and silently felt that this matter was quite reliable.

Who would have thought that at the end, Gu Juefei would actually say such a thing, and she couldn't help twitching the corners of her mouth, feeling that she couldn't say anything.

The "Ji Lao" in his mouth refers to Ji Zhiyin of the Xiangyang Academy.

Gu Juefei's father, Gu Chengqian, who was taught by Ji Zhiyin back then, was a close disciple of Ji Zhiyin and a proud student; but now Gu Juefei and Ji Zhiyin are friends of the same generation, and they have to start their school fast together...

Does Gu Chengqian know about this

Lu Jinxi couldn't help but glance at Gu Juefei, wondering whether to say that Mr. Ji Zhiyin doesn't care about common etiquette, or whether to say that Gu Juefei's ability is too high...

After a long while, she found her own voice: "It was my original plan to ask Brother Chi to come and try it. I just want to take Teacher Ji as my teacher... No matter whether he has the ability or not, and regardless of the old lady's. Seniority, my seniority alone is two points higher than the eldest son, but I absolutely dare not."

Lu Jinxi seemed to be kind.

She raised her eyes to look at him, and saw a crack in Gu Juefei's perfect smile, her heart was overjoyed.

The two looked at each other.

There was a bit of helplessness in his eyes, "I'm actually cocooning myself", but her eyes were a little bit narrow. So the original dignity and alienation were actually a little shallower, and there was a radiant look in his eyes, which was extremely agile and fascinating.

Gu Juefei's thoughts moved, but he lowered his eyes, and answered half-truths: "That's the case, when you come back to your noble son, you still feel that Feifei will be a little worried, and accepting him as a student will save you this lifetime. Confused."

A teacher for one day, a father for life.

If Xue Kuang was so angry that he pulled out the coffin board, it would be enough.

There was a deep meaning hidden in his words, but Lu Jinxi couldn't hear it at the moment.

She just laughed: "The eldest son has amazing talent and is famous all over the world. If that naughty boy can worship you, he will be lucky for three lifetimes. But I'm just afraid that his temperament is too poor, his knowledge is too shallow, and he won't be able to enter your eyes..."

"A thousand miles of horses still need Bole, the talents of the pillars, and there must be skilled craftsmen who are good at it." Gu Juefei didn't mind, "Now that your son has a stubborn temperament, how can you know that if you change someone to teach it, it won't look brand new?"

This is what it says...

If it spreads out, he may be beaten to death!

Lu Jinxi's eyelids jumped when he heard it: "It seems that the gentlemen who taught Brother Chi are useless and can't be in the eyes of the eldest son."

"Madam's words are serious, I haven't said that." Gu Juefei smiled and his brows stretched, "But if you insist, it's not that they are useless. It's just that compared with Gu, there are not many useful people in this world. Just people."

Getting crazier!

Lu Jinxi stared at his cheek, secretly estimating the thickness of his face, only from his words, he smelled a "cheap" air for no reason, and no longer knew how to answer.

Gu Juefei finally laughed.

There were sounds from the streets outside, the sound of horses and horses, the sound of orchestral gongs and drums, and there were still a few accents of Shu.

Gu Juefei got up, walked to the window, turned his back to Lu Jinxi and said, "Does Madam think that I am too flashy and arrogant?"

Of course it is.

But if you have capital, you can be crazy.

Lu Jinxi stared at his back, only to see the uprightness and arrogance of his body, and the spontaneity of the world.

"It's not that I think it's arrogant." She flatly denied her true thoughts, only saying, "People in the world favor gentlemen who hide their talents, and they have talents that help the world, but they should also be concealed and not exposed. It is rare to be open to talents. However, Isn't that why the eldest son is the only 'Gu Juefei' in this world?"

Unique Gu Juefei…

Ironed to the heart.

Is there any man in the world who can be unmoved after hearing such words

Gu Juefei looked back and found that she had come to him at some point.

Thin figure, very tall and straight. In the light of the sky, people seem to be covered with a thin layer of light, their waists are slender, and their demeanor is graceful.

The lines of the side face are soft and slightly cold.

That snow-white earlobe is close at hand.

She is like a Buddha.

But Gu Juefei suddenly thought: If he hadn't been afraid that she might be wearing a painted skin and had a deep Taoism, he might have turned into a disciple, rubbing her into his arms, so much pain, so much love, so that she couldn't fly out of his palm, Also let her know—

What will happen if you say such misleading words!

Beauty has never been attractive to Gu Juefei.

But if the existence in his body has made him interested, then the outer beauty of the skin will be radiant, and even become a fatal temptation.

Gu Juefei's so-called self-control is very good, but it's just a woman who has no feelings.

For Lu Jinxi, when he clearly recognized the animal thoughts that popped up in his mind, Gu Juefei already knew—

He was almost planted.

Even this sentence may have been deliberately done by Lu Jinxi.

Just like the "heart words" he once poured out to countless people, he specially pokes the softest part of people's hearts and makes people become close friends.

But he couldn't deny that he was stabbed.

It seems that there are people who know that he is different from the outside, but like to get along with him, and even praise him. At this moment, Gu Juefei also knows that Lu Jinxi is not as simple as she seems.

But he couldn't restrain himself.

Like a stone, slowly slipping into the abyss of doom...

At this moment, Gu Juefei's eyes were full of aggression and undisguised.

But Lu Jinxi didn't look at him, so he didn't think anything was wrong, he just looked outside and said, "It seems like a troupe from Shu, is this going to start a show?"

Across the street, there is a high platform.

At this moment, several bullock carts were parked there, and the costumes of the troupe were all moving downward. There was an old man with a gray beard, who was looking at the many musical instruments that were put down and talking to people.

It is indeed a kawaii sound.

Of course Gu Juefei saw it too, but he couldn't tell how he felt when he heard her words.

It's like a punch.

"It is indeed an opera troupe from Shu. I have seen a lot of this type in the past when I traveled in Shu. But I didn't think about it. Now that I am back in the capital, I can still see..."

In the words, there is a bit of reminiscence.

Lu Jinxi looked back: "Eldest son, is this remembering something old?"

Old things

It is indeed very old.

"In the past, I climbed the Shu Road, entered and exited the Sichuan, and all I could see were high mountains and rivers, withered pines hanging upside down, and turbulent waterfalls..." Gu Juefei squinted slightly and said, "It's a world that is incomparable to the sky. I often think that if I hadn’t come out of Shu Dao at the beginning, or had been late for ten days and a half months, things in the future might have been different…”

If he stayed for a few more days, he might not have taken the route of Quzhou; if he had not taken the route of Quzhou, he would not have seen the tragic state of hell on earth; if he had not seen this situation, he would not have had the desire to eradicate Xue Kuang...

In this case, where will the father and son go against each other's goals

But it's all if.

Gu Juefei's eyes had long since converged, and he turned to hide a bit of the divine light that has changed over the years. His voice was like spring water flowing through a mountain stream. And when you move your whole body, you will change the whole situation in one fell swoop. After moaning for nothing, Madam laughed. "

Is this the beginning of a routine for her

Lu Jinxi had guessed that he was a little secret in the past six years, but he didn't know it, and he was a little curious. Listening to him, he was inevitably curious.

But because she was used to other people's routines, she couldn't tell the truth from his words at this moment.

However, such Gu Juefei...

Gee.

Makes you want to kiss.

But she didn't do that, she just lowered her eyes slightly, and her glinting eyes softened.

There was a layer of smoke and sand on one face for a while, with a bit of natural haziness, and a bit of false but genuine confusion: "Eldest son's 'moaning without a problem' reminds me of something. things come..."

Her appearance is not very pitiful, but it makes people want to relieve her worries.

Gu Juefei became curious: "I would like to listen carefully."

"Actually, it's just some troubles in the inner house..."

Facing the breeze blowing, Lu Jinxi's cheeks felt a little cool, and she only remembered the incident with Sister Lang, which was also "one child and a big change".

"It's like a crane in a flock of chickens."

"If you follow the general trend and make the crane disappear in the flock, you will just let it go and ignore it. You can avoid the danger of being destroyed by the wind in the forest, and you will have no fault."

"If you go against the trend, you will sail against the current and stand out from the crowd, or you may be blamed. At that time, what thousands of people refer to will not necessarily be successful, but will be too big."

As Lu Jinxi spoke, he sighed: "One is easy, the other is difficult. One is common to the world, and the other is strange. If the eldest son comes, how will you choose?"

Gu Juefei raised his eyebrows when he heard the words.

If it wasn't for Lu Jinxi's always being kind to him, he didn't seem to know the appearance of Xue Kuang's death at his hands, and he almost thought that this question was to test himself.

After all, he had bucked the trend in the first place, risking the world's injustice. When the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty thought that Xue Kuang was a loyal minister and a good general, he forcibly killed this great general who was admired by thousands of people.

The aftermath is also here.

What happened to her

Gu Juefei couldn't help but wonder.

"Six years ago, I was faced with a decision similar to that of my wife. It's easy to follow the trend, and it doesn't cost me anything, and it doesn't cost me anything. But it's hard to do what I want."

"So life is still alive, the pros and cons are weighed, and it is a piece of waste paper."

"In the end, a thousand dollars can't buy me happiness."

Whether it is for the country or the people, or taking revenge with a single arrow, the goal is the same anyway, and he happens to only pay attention to the result and essence.

After killing Xue Kuang, he was happy!

All these words are true.

Lu Jinxi listened, felt extraordinary, and couldn't help looking at him.

Gu Juefei still looked casual: "So it is difficult to sail against the current, but if you ask me to answer the lady, it will only say 'I have my heart and my nature, and no one can change it'. Even if it is an enemy of the world, what's the harm? The enemy can surpass the world. , The world's words, in the end, are nothing but spit-mouthed feces."

My heart is my nature, and no one can change it.

Even if the enemy is against the world...

What a harsh word

But when he said it, it didn't seem to be shocking or deviant. It was just plain, with only the shimmering light in his eyes, revealing a little bit of sharpness.

If she hadn't looked at him and never looked away, she might have missed it.

Such a talk...

Isn't it similar to what she thought of "the power and wealth are in place, and everything is solved"

As for Sister Lang, she had already made a decision.

Now that I ask Gu Juefei, it is really intentional—

When most people face the weak who need help, they will feel sympathy and have the illusion that they are in a strong position, thus giving birth to a sense of security.

Men to women, especially.

Therefore, when Gu Juefei was already wary of her, the original traps and routines were not easy to use. At this time, she changed her strategy and showed her weakness, so that Gu Juefei could answer his doubts and let him relax his vigilance because of his sense of security.

But she didn't expect that he would say such a thing.

This is a painted skin monster.

But what he hides under the skin of the painting may be a hundred times, a thousand times more beautiful than the skin on the outside...

This sudden realization made Lu Jinxi a little fascinated.

And because she knew that what he said just now came from the bottom of her heart, she became more and more in a trance, and couldn't help but murmured: "See you late..."

The voice was so soft that Gu Juefei could hear it vaguely: "Madam?"

Only then did Lu Jinxi come back to his senses: you have to be careful, don't put yourself in...

There was a bit of embarrassment on her face, but she smiled: "The eldest son's words are really enlightening, and it makes my heart clear a lot. I also want to... "

As she said that, she occasionally lowered her eyes, but her voice suddenly dropped.

Where the line of sight falls, it happens to be the window edge.

Suddenly, her left hand and Gu Juefei's right hand were placed on top of each other. The backs of her hands are snow-white, and his fingers are slender and equally elegant. What matters is the distance...

too close.

You can touch it with just a touch of your little finger.

Just like the distance from the last prescription...

If there is any ambiguity, it can be ignored. There was nothing between them, and if they were calm, they would be ashamed.

But Lu Jinxi knew that there was a better way to take advantage of such a situation...

The thick eyelashes trembled, she paused, and then slowly moved her fingers, seemingly naturally and silently, and slowly retracted the palm...

distance, reopen.

At that moment, when Gu Juefei saw her move, his heart skipped a beat!

There was almost a "bang" in the ear, as if the surrounding void was ignited by her inadvertently shrinking hands.

What spreads everywhere is the sudden strong...

ambiguous.

It was obviously a restraint and avoidance of suspicion, but it seemed to be linked to something, so that "there was nothing" turned into "it seems to be something".

As a result, the ambiguity that was originally vague, was all hooked out and surfaced.

Gu Juefei was originally more than half a head taller than her, but at this moment, she could see that her head was lowered and her eyebrows were picturesque. Especially on the face of the beauty of Hibiscus, it seems to be dyed with a touch of coquettishness...

He wasn't sure if it was his illusion.

Obviously standing dignifiedly like this, but there is nothing but enchanting all over the body...

It was a feeling that made one's heart tighten and his mouth was dry, and along with the strangeness, it spread from the bottom of his heart to his body, occupying his whole being.

Gu Juefei's rationality can also be clearly judged: this time, it is stronger and more out of control than when she said "unique" before...

His hand rested on the window sill, but it was like a fiery red soldering iron. He couldn't tell if his hands were hotter or his heart was hotter...

Keen insight and intuition told him that Lu Jinxi was 80% intentional.

But does that matter

He has played too many games, and often at the beginning of the game, he can predict the end.

Although it was only three-way relationship, it was not completely tempted yet.

But he can already be sure that when facing this woman, he has no resistance, and he can't even give birth to the heart of rejection.

Falling down, but sooner or later...

He once persuaded Jueyuan and the monk Touzi to admit defeat, but now he has to persuade himself to disarm and surrender.

All thoughts are nothing but lightning bolts.

The sound of gongs and drums came from outside the window, and someone suddenly applauded loudly. Gu Juefei didn't have to look back to know that there was a "face change" playing outside.

The masks will be changed one by one...

At the end, the truth will be revealed.

But he Gu Juefei, will there be a day when he will reveal his true colors

he does not know.

"Mrs..."

Looking back at Lu Jinxi, Gu Juefei suddenly called out.

This voice has a faint smell of lingering.

Lu Jinxi was a little flabbergasted.

She vaguely realized that there seemed to be something wrong, raised her eyes, but bumped into a pair of deep eyes.

A pair of unrepentant eyes.

Deep pupils, invisible bottom.

The previously hidden emotions filled his eyes again, so all the gentleness and elegance faded away, leaving only the aggression of swords, lights, swords and shadows, and even occupation!

Lu Jinxi felt his body froze immediately, as if he was fixed by his gaze.

Gu Juefei just leaned forward and approached her.

Her gaze was warm, as if she was inadvertently passing it across her slightly opened plump pink lips, and finally a low laugh, her voice low and hoarse, sounded in front of her.

"Excuse me for not being presumptuous. I also have a question. I would like to ask the lady for advice. You seem to be very fond of me?"

Down, down? !

Yes, yes, but...

In Lu Jinxi's head, there was a sound of "hum", and it exploded into the fog.

This product actually doesn't play cards according to the routine

A handsome face, close at hand, slightly angular, with clear eyebrows, really...

foul!

Lu Jinxi gritted her silver teeth in anger, only to feel that the slightly hot breath fell on her snow-white ears, causing a shivering light pink, which made her want to avoid it.

She thought about eating old grass, but she had no interest in the shame of being bitten first.

Lu Jinxi didn't speak, but Gu Juefei actually didn't need her to answer.

The answer lies in his heart.

Therefore, he just stared at her, and said word by word: "I have read the list that the eldest princess prepared for the lady. But they are all ordinary people, who can't be afforded by the lady. But when you ask the lady to get it, you don't have to. Waste time to look carefully and burn it to the ground. There is no name on it, and they can't compete with me."

Lu Jinxi was still speechless.

Only those black and white eyeballs, blinking, looked at him with subtlety and strangeness.

At this moment, Gu Juefei wanted to just bury her head and kiss her.

But he held back.

Pulling the distance between the two people again, Gu Juefei looked at the sunlight falling outside, and said goodbye with a bit of regret: "But please give me some time, Madam. I have an appointment with Ji Lao today, and I don't dare to break my trust in others, but I hope to talk to Mrs. another day."

Gu Juefei disappeared outside the door.

Lu Jinxi stood by the window and didn't move, he could only see his figure, appearing on the street below, passing through the lively crowd, and gradually drifting away.

But until he can't see it, Lu Jinxi is still a little dazed and in a trance: "Have I lost my mind..."
