Xue Rui saw that Yu Shu had a different expression and asked her: "What's wrong?" Yu Shu couldn't help but smile bitterly: "I found out that I had done something stupid." She had previously estimated the horoscope of King Xiang based on his horoscope. Taking the recent illness as a sign, the dignitary and he picked out a few matching characters from the sixty horoscopes, and then did the calculations. Who knew that King Xiang's illness was just an excuse, and all the results she had worked so hard to calculate would be overturned. The basic formula of her law of disaster is complex number arithmetic, and in complex number arithmetic, a small mistake can cause a huge deviation in the result. Then she eliminated the erroneous data and calculated the several time periods when King Xiang might have lost his property, but none of them were tenable. When she saw King Xiang today, she was originally planning to ask him to confirm which of the time periods was accurate and to determine where King Xiang had lost his things. But now, it was all in vain. The paper is due tomorrow, and there is still less than a day left. When I meet the King of Xiang, even if I get the correct horoscope by luck, I still have to do careful calculations after I go back to calculate the time when the lost item was lost. However, I only know the time but not the location. She still wanted to see King Xiang. If she figured out the time in the middle of the night, where would she go to meet King Xiang? If there was another day, at most she would have the audacity to beg Xue Rui to come again tomorrow. The key is tomorrow is the deadline, and all candidates will be there tomorrow morning. It was not easy for Xue Rui to arrange for her to meet here, but she missed the opportunity. One day, only one day left. "What stupid thing?" Xue Rui asked in confusion. Yu Shu shook his head, raised his hand to wipe his face, sighed, and said: "This year's Dayan, I may have to return empty-handed. I made a miscalculation. Even if I meet the prince, it will not help." Yi She was only able to cope with the first science subject, the first subject of astrology. In order to frame Ji Xingxuan, she did not refer to it. She put all her bets on the first subject of thaumaturgy in order to win the title of Yi Master. In the end, she failed. Tricked myself. Yu Shu's mind suddenly flashed back to the day when Wen Shaoan said in the training center that "it was all in vain". Could it mean that she was now? Xue Rui didn't know why Yu Shu was troubled, but after hearing this sentence, she felt discouraged The taste was completely different from the confident look just now. He frowned secretly, and wanted to ask in detail, and wanted to persuade, but when the words came to his mouth, his mind changed, and it became a speech: "Say defeat before success, this Not like you." There was no trace of ridicule or contempt in his tone, but Yu Shu could hear a hint of disappointment in his words. "Then tell me, how do you look like me?" She raised her head and asked. "You won't give up until you reach the Yellow River, and you won't shed tears until you see the coffin." Xue Rui looked at her with a faint smile on his sparse brows. Yu Shu's heart was moved, and she fell silent for a moment, saying: "It's not a big deal to give up and shed tears now, but it's true that there is nothing you can do." I¡¯d like to see what the prince wants to say and ask. We¡¯ll stop at the entrance of Dingbo Pavilion later, and wait for you to think about it before going in to see you. Yu Shu said depressedly: ¡°I¡¯m afraid I can¡¯t think of anything else for a while. . " "Don't be discouraged yet." Xue Rui took away the cold tea in her hand, replaced it with a cup of hot tea and gave it to Gui, saying: "Think carefully, you must have a way. " Yu Shu looked at Xue Rui, who spoke with a firm tone, and wondered where he got his confidence. But after a few words from him, his impetuous heart calmed down. He covered his hands with a hot cup and his mind started to work normally again. Except for the law of misfortune, she has no way to solve this problem. Do you want to use the six lines to divine the king of Xiang? Come on, it is not as accurate as her blind guess. Really, if she had more at the beginning. He was more cautious and did not judge King Xiang's illness based on the excuses and rumors from the palace. Now he would not be so passive and force himself into this situation. Seeing that she had regained her energy, Xue Rui relaxed and stopped persuading her. The more she wanted time to slow down, the faster it ran. When the carriage came to the street in front of Dingbo Hall, Xue Rui was still at a loss and asked the driver to stop on the side of the road without urging her. On the bed, he pulled out a book from somewhere, opened half of the window and read it in the light to pass the time. After about a moment of burning incense, he heard Yu Shu say: "Let's go." " The situation, I can have an idea. " Xue Rui laughed and said: "Okay. "The two of them got off the car and walked a few steps to the front door of Dingbo Hall. Xue Rui asked the concierge's servant to go in. There was no need to queue up and no post was handed in. After a while, the steward ran out on the snow, smiling. He bowed and said: "My eldest son, please come in and wait. ¡± "Lead the way." Xue Rui lifted the corner of his robe and stepped over the threshold. He was not polite to the steward. Yu Shu was not as comfortable as him, so he nodded and smiled at the steward. "Yes." It really made Yu Shu sigh with emotion that she could meet him so easily. He wanted her to meet the old housekeeper of Prince Xiang's Mansion, so she spent four hundred taels of silver and waited for three days, and now she wanted to meet Prince Xiang. , in just a few words, no wonder Feng Zhaomiao insisted on asking Xue Rui for help. This is called a relationship household. Yu Shu and Xue Rui have been to this Dingbo Pavilion once before. She still remembers the day when Young Master Xue had an argument with the Seventh Prince, and they ended up having a bet over wine and broke up on bad terms. After a heavy snowfall, the garden was very different from the last time she came here. Without the spring green of the four seasons, it looked more elegant and interesting to watch when covered with silver. The steward led the way, and instead of walking in silence, he turned to talk to Xue Rui: "It's a coincidence that the eldest son is here. The princess is also there. She came to you a little early and is sitting in the incense grinding hall, waiting for the prince to get up and stay. " " Yu Shu listened curiously, Princess? Is she the Princess of the Prince of Xiang's Palace? Xue Rui seemed to know her doubts, and turned to her and said: "Princess Xiwen is the daughter of the prince, and is the daughter of my aunt. The younger sister of the prince¡¯s mother.¡± ¡°I.¡± Xue Rui asked the steward who was leading the way: ¡°Did the princess come alone, or did she bring someone else with her?¡± The steward said, ¡°I brought a young lady with me.¡± He and Yu Shu looked at each other and knew in their hearts that he must have come "through the back door" just like them. While he was talking, he passed a slightly longer flower path and saw a hall with three rooms side by side between the verandahs. The snow in front of the road was swept away, the red curtain on the door was opened, and a silver plaque was hung on it, saying "Grinning." The word "fragrant". Under the eaves in front of the door stood two maidservants who were in attendance. They were wearing pink silk jackets and leather jackets. They looked well-behaved. When they came to the hall door, they would first salute and greet them, then one would roll up the curtain and the other would lift the curtain. He raised the curtain corner, announced the situation inside, and invited them in. "Princess, the eldest son is here." Yu Shu followed Xue Rui in. He turned half of his body and looked inside. The two women in front of the tea seat stood up and looked at the pretty girl who was greeting them with a smile. It looked familiar to her, but before she took a closer look, all eyes were drawn to the man behind her wearing a green veil. What kind of fate is this? She could meet her twice when she came to Dingbo Pavilion. "Brother Rui, I haven't seen you for a while, how are you lately?" Princess Xiwen stood in front of Xue Rui with a smile, a smile on her neck. The pink fox scarf made her look very delicate. Her eyes were bright and her teeth were white, and she smiled, innocently and innocently. "Well, rest at home for a few days." Xue Rui had no intention of mentioning Mrs. Xue's illness to others. He also saw Ji Xingxuan in the hall, his eyes flashed, and when he was about to ask, Xi Wen had already turned around and introduced: "Brother Rui, this I am the daughter of Si Tianjian Ji Youjian's family, the fourth lady of the Ji family, and I am very close, Xingxuan, this is me." "Princess, I have met Mr. Xue," Ji Xingxuan interrupted Xiwen softly. After the introduction, he walked up and bowed to Xue Rui first, and then explained to Xiwen who looked confused: "I have met Mr. Xue several times before when he was handling cases in Taishi Shuyuan." After hearing this, Yu Shu said interestingly, Of course Ji Xingxuan and Xue Rui knew each other, but they didn't know each other because of the investigation, but because of the cheating marriage. They had met in Yiyang a long time ago. She was also lucky enough to be present at that time as one of the parties involved. However, before she could think about it further, Ji Xingxuan turned his head again, saluted her, and said, "Hello, Miss Lianfang." Yu Shu felt puzzled, Ji Xingxuan had taken the wrong medicine, and it wasn't like he didn't recognize her. Why did she call her that fake name? When Xiwen heard this, she turned her attention to the person behind Xue Rui. When she saw that it was a young man with an unattractive appearance, she heard Ji Xingxuan call her "girl". She couldn't help but frown and turned around. Go and ask Xue Rui: "Who is this person?" "Friend," Xue Rui answered briefly and glanced at Ji Xingxuan, wondering as Yu Shu did, why she called her that. "Oh," the servant came in just now to report. Xiwen knew that Xue Rui also brought someone to see her father. She also guessed with Ji Xingxuan that it was because of the exam, but she didn't expect him to bring a woman. Girl Lianfang, the name Lianfang sounds familiar, wait a minute - she remembered it. Xiwen glanced at Yu Shu a few more times, and before Xue Rui noticed anything, a servant came outside the door and said: "Princess Princess, Eldest Young Master, the prince is here, please come to the East Pavilion to talk." "I understand," Xiwen replied, turning to Xue Rui and smiling: "I came first today, everything has a first-come, first-served basis. Wait a little later, and when we meet Father, you can take this Lotus Room girl there. " , drinking hot tea, didn¡¯t talk much, and didn¡¯t mention anything about Ji Xingxuan, knowing that this was not the place for conversation. .
