NOVEL NEXT Chapter 40 - farewell
Su Qianan followed Xia Chu back to the house.
Xia Chu said to him: “Tomorrow, the Marquis will know about the bet between me and the Fourth Highness tonight. You tell him that if the Fourth Highness sends the contract, he will find a reliable person to manage it. It can be arranged later. We need some people to replace the little Er inside. The restaurant is also a good place to collect news. The gift from the Fourth Highness should not be wasted in vain. After the staff is inserted, the daily news will be communicated with you when you come back in the evening. The next day , you are giving it to Bingwen.”
Su Qianan replied yes.
“After I leave, if there is an urgent matter, you can ask Bingwen to convey it on your behalf.”
“Why do you want him to convey it on his behalf!” Su Qianan mumbled a little aggrieved.
Xia Chu sighed and said to him, “Bingwen has Bian Hao by his side, but you can contact Bian Ding by my side.”
“Okay.” Su Qianan replied helplessly.
“After I leave, I have nothing to chat with Qianle. Don’t go all day and know you’re stuck there.”
“Yes, I understand.” Su Qianan replied in embarrassment.
“Okay, go down and rest.”
“Ah? Young master, aren’t you going to Bingwen’s?” Su Qianan asked.
“I’m going, you don’t have to follow.”
Su Qianan was dumbfounded, didn’t speak, didn’t go back, just looked at Xia Chu like that.
“I changed my clothes and went to look for him, and I won’t be back at night. I will start directly from him tomorrow morning.”
Su Qianan’s expression became even more uncomfortable when she heard this, and there was a hint of pleading in her eyes.
“You, go back and rest. I’ll talk about everything when I get back.” Xia Chu’s tone was a bit solemn, and he ordered.
When Su Qianan heard the words, she obediently retire and went down.
Xia Chu laughed as he watched his leaving back, but for Su Qianan, direct orders were still effective.
Xia Chu changed into the rough cotton coat he had prepared, picked up the package, found a hidden corner and flew directly towards Bingwen.
When he arrived at Bingwen’s yard, Xia Chu saw that the door of his house was open, so he walked in. After passing through the screen, he found that Bingwen had already prepared wine and food, sitting at the table, waiting for a long time.
When Bingwen saw him coming, there was a smile on the corner of his mouth, and when he saw no one behind him, he couldn’t help but ask curiously, “Didn’t Qian An follow?”
“I thought you had something private to tell me.”
Xia Chu put down the package and sat down.
Bingwen felt that every time he talked to Xia Chu, there was a sense of deja vu. Xia Chu seems to know him very well, not the kind of family background. Rather, knowing his whole person easily penetrated his thoughts.
He has never had a confidant in his life, but he thinks that the love of Boya Ziqi described in the scroll is probably the same.
“Why are you dressed like this?” Bingwen asked with a frown.
“Traveling as an ordinary person, naturally, you can’t be too dazzling. Just in time, I also want to ask you how to disguise yourself.”
“It’s not difficult, it’s just…” Bingwen hesitated.
“Uh?”
“Although this appearance is easy to change, the nobleness of the young master is hard to restrain…” Bingwen joked.
“Let it go!” Xia Chu feigned angrily.
“Master…”
“Actually, you can call me by my name.” Xia Chu still liked the way he used to call him by his first name.
“Isn’t that arrogant, the young master is a great favor to me.” Bingwen frowned.
“Let it be…”
“Uh?”
“I don’t say thank you for your kindness. I have always regarded you as a confidant. You can understand.”
Bingwen’s heart turned waves, and he kept admonishing himself. Xia Chu is the master, the benefactor, and the confidant that he cannot reach. Now, I heard Xia Chu personally tell him that he is also his confidant. In Bingwen’s heart, he was shocked, ecstatic, and full of joy.
“Then, I will call you Xia Chu when no one is there.” Bingwen’s voice trembled slightly.
“Okay.” Xia Chu smiled.
“It seems that none of the servants in your courtyard are here tonight?” When Xia Chu came, he deliberately avoided the southern guest room, but found that there was no light there.
“I knew you were coming, so I gave them a day off today. I sent them out and wanted to say goodbye to you.”
“In that case, let’s go to the rooftop for a drink.” Xia Chu smiled slyly.
“Ah?” Bingwen was surprised.
Xia Chu ignored the surprised look on his face, grabbed the jar of wine, and dragged him onto the roof to pick up tiles and sit down.
In Bingwen’s memory, the last time he went on the roof was 12 or 13 years ago, when he was six or seven years old when he climbed on the roof to see the stars. Drinking alcohol on the moon is something that has never been done before. After all, when he was ten years old, his family was destroyed…
Xia Chu pulled out the lid, took a sip, and handed it to him.
Bingwen took it, took a sip, and called him, “Chu Xia.”
“Uh?”
“Lu Mingxi’s case, are you selling the news you picked for me?” Bingwen asked, rubbing the wine jar in his hand.
“Not all, Lu Mingxi is indeed a good official. Our deal is not a loss.”
Bingwen nodded, moved in his heart, but no longer thanked him. He knew that Xia Chu didn’t need to listen to these, and he didn’t want to say these useless words.
“Cai Wenyong is about to be escorted into Beijing. Someone will inform Bian Hao of the location, and you will tell Master Lu to take over.”
“Yes.”
“The spring season is about to begin, and a large number of students will soon arrive in the capital. Xie Jiming, Shi Zhongfei, Yin Guangbo, Kong Changhui, you must make friends with these four people and give them all your help. If they have doubts and do not want to accept it, you can speak bluntly. , entrusted by others, take care of them. Especially Xie Jiming, it is best to take you in the courtyard to live with you on the eve of the exam to protect his safety. “
“Do you want to recover them?” Bingwen asked curiously when he saw his rare awe.
“It’s best if you can take it for your own use.”
“I know how to act.”
Xia Chu nodded his head. He was polite and elegant, and he took care of everything. It was the most appropriate thing to leave it to him.
In the last life, even Xiao Yanjun couldn’t win over these four people, so it is conceivable that their character is naturally excellent. Those who can be admired by Xiao Yanjun will definitely not be poor in knowledge. Unfortunately, Xiao Yanjun couldn’t win over them, so he used some means to make them all fall off the list. That Xie Jiming is still in danger.
Xia Chu couldn’t tell Bingwen about these twists and turns, so he changed the subject.
“After I leave, you will also go to Yixianglou every now and then to be a romantic boy. Regularly hand over news, and Aunt Li will arrange a girl for you.”
Bingwen’s expression was slightly sunburned, and he said hello.
“If you have anything, you can call Bian Hao to contact me.”
“Ok.”
“Look at you, jumping out for me word by word, just say goodbye to me like this?” Xia Chu was slightly annoyed.
Bingwen laughed, he really had a lot to say. Now I think it’s not necessary anymore. Because, he didn’t say it, Xia Chu knew it.
“In the Kongming Lantern tonight, is the wish really that one?” Bingwen asked.
Xia Chu was stunned for a while before realizing that he was referring to what he said to Xiao Zimu.
Xia Chu nodded.
“it is true.”
“I see you all have different attitudes towards them at night.”
“tell me the story.”
“You are fond of the Ninth Princess, polite to His Royal Highness King Mo, indifference to Xu Wenlan, disdain for His Highness the Eighth, disgust for His Highness the Fourth, and only for His Highness the Seventh, you are very enthusiastic.”
“You look carefully.”
“It’s you who didn’t hide it at all, it’s beyond words.”
“By the way, you met by chance in the light market at night, you did it on purpose.”
“If it hadn’t happened, how could I have seen the spectacular scene where you overwhelmed the number one talent in Xiao country.” Bingwen laughed.
“Just luck.”
Xia Chu sighed imperceptibly. Whoever changed, experienced the magnificent scene of being held in the palm of Xiao Yanjun’s palm in the last life, and guessing all the Chang’an lanterns overnight, it will be unforgettable for a lifetime.
Bingwen did not continue arguing with him, but just tilted his head to look at him and asked, “So, what is the difference between His Highness Seventh?”
“I owe him a big debt and want to make it up.”
“I’ll pay you back.”
“good.”
“If there is any news about him in the capital, I will let Bian Hao pass it on to you.”
“Ok.”
“Look at you, jump out for me word by word, can you still let me say goodbye?”
Bingwen smiled slyly.
Xia Chu punched him and said angrily, “You really hold revenge.”
Bingwen laughed, the two of them drank to Yue and chatted freely…
