I was Idle and Cool

Chapter 74: "Anti-Book"

In spring, the sun is getting up early.

The east was soon white with fish belly, and after a while, the sky was already shining on the earth.

Last night, there was a light rain, and the begonia flowers outside the courtyard wall gradually overlapped on the branches, and the petals were stained with a bit of moist rain.

Lu Jinxi sat in front of the makeup mirror, looked out the window, and let the egret pick a white jade begonia hairpin and put it on her, and only asked with a smile, "Brother Chi didn't stay in bed today, right?"

"You told me yesterday that Mammy woke him up before dawn today. I'm afraid he got up earlier than you. Most of the time he's already in Time School, and I'm saying goodbye to a few gentlemen."

After fiddling with the hairpin, the egret felt a little plain again, and was still looking for it in the makeup.

"The slaves also explained the few books you ordered to buy for your sisters, and it is estimated that they will be purchased in a while."

Lu Jinxi listened and nodded, "That's good."

But Bailu didn't understand: "But don't you have books in your study? Even Miss Lang's books are enough to read, why do you still buy them?"

"Books are not the same as books." Lu Jinxi naturally has his own plans. "The books that are being bought right now are not owned by Sister Lang, let alone Sister Li. You saw those two little girls last night. , Aren't you envious of Brother Chi for being so tight? Let's buy a few books, and I can teach them when I'm free."

"what…"

Egret didn't expect this to be the reason. After listening to Lu Jinxi's words, he opened his mouth slightly and was a little surprised.

"The slaves never thought of going up here..."

In the past two days, the relationship between Madam and Sister Lang has been improving for everyone.

Of the maids serving in the house, who wouldn't be happy with them?

Everyone felt relieved after watching the slapstick last night, but they really didn't notice such small details.

Egret thought about it for a while, and stuck out his tongue playfully: "It's the careless servant, I didn't think about it."

"This shouldn't have been yours to consider, what do you owe?"

Lu Jinxi laughed, and only looked in the mirror. Seeing that the egret didn't find anything, he simply waved his hand.

"That's it, I don't go out at home, and it's not a big deal, so I don't need to dress up."

"Oh…"

Egret immediately revealed a face of disappointment undisguised, and only felt a pity in his heart: with a face like his own wife, you should dress up well and be flamboyant.

But she didn't seem to care.

But yes.

With such a face as Madam, dressing up is secondary.

She couldn't help but murmured a few words in her heart, but her hands were not slow, and she quickly gathered the things in the state together, and then asked the maids to take out the used water on the shelf.

At this time, Qingque, who had previously been instructed by Lu Jinxi to deal with the affairs in the account room, lifted the curtain and walked in.

Lu Jinxi had already turned to sit on the heated kang aside, looked at the volume of "Anti-Classics" on the small plan, and was about to pick it up and read it.

When she saw Qingque come in, she didn't open the book first, and instead asked, "How is it?"

"The accounts of each hospital have been checked with the account room. When the weather is getting warmer, I have also told them to the other side according to your instructions, and I will buy them in two days."

Qingque came to Lu Jinxi and replied respectfully.

However, Lu Jinxi suddenly found that her expression was not quite right. After saying this, she seemed to have something to say, but she didn't know how to say it.

She thought about it and asked, "Why, what happened?"

"No, it doesn't."

Qing Que just felt that this matter was not easy to talk about. She thought for a while, and then felt that Lu Jinxi had to know about this kind of thing. After all, she was in charge of the family, so she still leaned over to her, attached to her ear, and said a word softly.

"In the eldest son's house, Xiangzhi..."

When Lu Jinxi heard this, she raised her eyebrows in surprise and glanced at Qingque, a little surprised.

But then he laughed.

"It's not uncommon. You can go back and make arrangements to increase Xiangzhi's monthly payment to two taels. You don't need to worry about the rest. Our eldest son doesn't seem like someone who will cause trouble."

The things in the inner house are just that.

Lu Jinxi didn't really get interested, neither did he intend to talk to Xue Tingzhi, nor did he intend to ask Xiangzhi for a few words.

Anyway, as soon as the monthly money goes up, everyone understands what's going on.

Besides, isn't that what she meant by arranging Xiangzhi?

Qingque originally thought that Lu Jinxi would pay more attention to this kind of thing. After all, in other people's houses, they all pay attention to this kind of thing, for fear that the young buddies will not be able to make progress.

But on second thought, the eldest son is a concubine after all.

So she didn't talk too much, just answered: "The slave will arrange tomorrow."

"Well, the rest is the matter of Zhang Luo Zhang Luo Chi going to school today. Get your car ready early, and I'll go back and have a look."

Lu Jinxi waved his hand, and ordered the most important thing today.

Brother Chi's going to school this time is a big deal.

Although he often had his own time wandering outside, going to school was no better than going to Liu Jin and the others to play, so he had to be more prepared in case of emergencies.

Qingque has a stable temperament, and it is better to do these things.

She knew it herself, and she took the order now, and then backed out to make arrangements.

Lu Jinxi had nothing to do, so he finally looked at "Anti-Classics".

This book was borrowed from Xue Tingzhi by her.

It has been with her for a while now. A while ago, because I wanted to tell Xue Chi a story, I went to study Xue Kuang's battle reports, but I still haven't read a half of this volume.

She finally got a chance to watch it today after she finally had time to spare.

This is a book for "superior people".

In her old cognition, a dynasty like Daxia naturally did not exist. But going back hundreds of years, the evolution of history has some amazing commonalities, such as some events and some names.

Therefore, this book is only slightly different from the Anti-Sutra of modern beings.

But that's not just why Lu Jinxi is curious about it.

This is a book that has apparently been turned over many times without leaving any notes. If you want to know, Xue Kuang must have seen it, and Xue Chi must have seen it.

What she is most curious about is actually-

Which pages are the oldest in this book?

Anyone who has experience in reading books knows that if you read a few pages of a book with a lot of income, then when you look at the opening of the book from the side, you will find that those pages have heavy traces of obsolete, showing a slightly darker line.

Lu Jinxi's book "Anti-Classics" is an example.

Thinking about it, she turned the book to one side and saw at a glance that some parts of the book were new, some parts were old, and there were two obvious dark long lines.

So with a finger, Lu Jinxi pinched the position of these pages and opened it.

"Anti-Book"

Wei Shun twenty-seventh

When Han Xin was the king of Qi at the beginning, Kuaitong said that he would make a third of the world, but he believed it or not. Later, knowing that Han was afraid of evil and capable, he rebelled against Chen Xi. The matter was leaked, and the Empress Dowager Lu managed to capture him. Fang Zhan said, "I regret that I did not listen to Kuaitong's plan, but it was deceived by a woman. Isn't it heaven!"

"…"

When she saw the first few lines, her eyelids jumped.

This is a part of the twenty-seventh section of the Weishun chapter in the Anti-Classics, which is about the affairs of King Qi, Han Xin. It is said that when he was the king of Qi, his advisor Kuai Tong suggested that he compete with Liu Bang and Xiang Yu to divide the world into three parts.

But Han Xin did not listen, but instead helped Liu Bang.

Later, I heard that Liu Bang was afraid of his ability, so he and Chen Xi planned a rebellion together. As a result, the matter was revealed, and when he was about to die, he regretted not listening to Kuaitong's strategy.

Where is it so bad?

It happens to be in this place...

Lu Jinxi only felt a chill dig into the cracks of the bones, but he couldn't stop thinking of the clues he saw in the battle report, and the clues that people couldn't believe at all.

She looked back a few lines, but it was still a strange chapter.

What is said later is the follow-up of this incident. Liu Bang arrested Kuaitong and wanted to punish him for the crime of instigating Han Xin to rebel, but Kuaitong felt that he was wronged.

In the Qin Dynasty, Gangji was in turmoil. Since he lost his deer, the whole world will be chased.

Anyone with a weapon wanted to do what Liu Bang did, but they were too weak to do it.

In the world, there are eight out of ten so-called "strategists" who want their masters to rebel, and the remaining two are either in the process of rebelling or are about to rebel...

"Qin loses its deer, and the world chases..."

Just turned a page.

Lu Jinxi already had a feeling of being intimidated, and he couldn't do it for a while, and didn't want to go back: whether it was Xue Kuang's translation or Xue Tingzhi's translation, the meaning behind this always made people a little frightened.

She was still thinking, and the voice of the egret next to her came over: "Madam, just now at the Taishifu... Hey, what happened to you?"

The egret went to clean up the make-up first, and then went out again to tell the maids to boil water and make tea.

At this moment, he was coming over with a cup of tea, and was about to tell the news from the Taishi's mansion, but when he saw that Lu Jinxi's face was not right, he couldn't help asking.

"It's nothing, just see something confusing."

Lu Jinxi's brows stretched out, and she didn't say anything, but with a flickering light out of the corner of her eyes, she caught a glimpse of a few narrow blank notes scattered on the case.

So, an idea came up naturally.

She didn't pick up the teacup, and just let the egret put it aside, but picked up the light-blue gold-colored paper on the case, and put it in the book, which happened to be the current page.

Like a bookmark.

If I remember correctly, Xue Tingzhi will also come to greet him this afternoon.

Thinking about it, she closed the book, put it aside temporarily, and asked Bailu, "You just said that the Grand Master's mansion is over there, what's going on?"

"There is news from the Taishi Mansion..." Bailu just remembered the business, and quickly replied, "The eldest son just sent someone to inform the mansion, saying that the little son does not need to go to school today, and asks the madam to send the little son to the house. Send it to the Grand Master's Mansion."

"Send it to the Grand Master's Mansion?"

Lu Jinxike also promised Xue Chi that he must accompany him to Xuezhai today. In the blink of an eye, Gu Juefei changed it to Taishifu?

She couldn't help muttering, and asked again, "Did the person who came didn't say why?"

"I asked, but the person who came here doesn't know. It's just that the eldest son ordered it." Bailu was also at a loss for this situation.

Generally, students study in the study hall, and rarely go to their husband's house to study.

Unless the husband lives in the school.

Gu Juefei is naturally a busy person, and he has indeed said long ago that he may not have time to teach Xue Chi all the time, but he did it the first day and didn't go to school, was it a bit too much?

I don't even know why...

Lu Jinxi inexplicably remembered the letter of the book list that was delivered late at night last night, and couldn't help pinching his eyebrows and said, "Since I'm going to the Grand Master's Mansion, I can't be as casual as going to the study, and I can't let it be late. Brother, go alone. You go to open the library and prepare some gifts for the old master and his wife. It doesn't have to be too thick. I will bring it to the meeting in the afternoon. "
