[Rebirth] The wind enters the forest

Chapter 42

The doorman in the second emperor's womb saw Cao Jixia rushing up to greet him: "Master Cao, unfortunately, my Highness is not here."

Cao Jixia showed the imperial decree: "I know, I have come to do things according to the imperial decree."

The door boy knelt down when he saw the imperial decree: "Master Cao, please come in."

Cao Jixia stepped into the threshold, and the steward inside rushed to welcome him into the study: "Master Cao, you have worked hard, come in and have a seat."

Cao Jixia glanced around the study room, picked a chair and sat down, leaning against the bookcase behind his back, which was neatly stacked full of books.

The manager wanted to get his words out of his mouth, and while pouring Cao Jixia a cup of tea, he asked, "What is Mr. Cao going to do this time?"

Cao Jixia shook his robe and raised his legs: "Hey, the emperor wants us to find that Huanhua paper."

The steward was taken aback: "This huanhua paper is not a precious thing. There are some calligraphy and paintings in the harem. Which empress doesn't have some? To put it bluntly, even some ministers and princes may also prepare it. So What can a person who casts a wide net find out? Or is the Huanhua paper your lord is looking for different?"

Cao Jixia glanced at him: "We are just doing business, how dare the emperor guess what he means?" He picked up his cup and took a sip, moved slightly closer to the steward, covered his nose with his hand, and said softly: "The truth is the same as the truth." You said, it is true that almost every concubine has some, don't be afraid of things, everyone is the same, what is there to worry about?"

Hearing what he said, the steward felt relieved, and leaned back in the chair. He usually earns a lot of oil and water, and has gained weight. When he relaxes, his stomach will protrude, as if it is about to overflow.

Cao Jixia lowered his eyes, put one hand on his knee and leaned back with the other, holding the piece of paper between his fingertips, just as he touched the bookcase, a scream came from outside.The steward was shocked for a moment and woke up, looking straight at the past.

Cao Jixia's pupils shrank sharply, and he simply brought down the row of books, stood up all of a sudden, pretended to be frightened, and said displeasedly: "What's going on?"

The steward hurriedly smiled: "It's okay, it's okay." He said as he walked over: "I'll pick it up, I'll pick it up, my lord, don't worry."

Cao Jixia took two steps back, and retracted his fingertips into his sleeves.

The noise outside was getting closer and closer, and a person barged in cursing: "Presumptuous! It's too presumptuous! I'm the prince's side Fujin, and you can easily enter my room?"

Cao Jixia followed the voice and looked over, isn't this Lin Ke?

Lin Ke had met Cao Jixia a few times, and he was deeply impressed by his appearance. He usually called him "that thing with a woman's face" to himself with the maids around him, but now he recognized him immediately.It's just that she is high-minded, and consciously married to a prince, so her status is naturally unmatched by others. Besides, if you count it seriously, this Cao Jixia is not as high as Lin Gantang's official position, so she will not let him go Seeing it, he frowned at Cao Jixia and put on a face: "Master Cao, what's going on? You act impartially, and if you want to search, you search for what you need, even women's rooms, don't you?" ?”

Cao Jixia saluted her slightly, and said with a slight smile: "Apologize to Fujin, I think it's because those servants acted rudely, but I do have official duties, even the empress in the harem needs to be searched, if Fujin thinks It's not appropriate, I will go to your place to check in person later, if I really can't find anything, I will make amends when the second prince comes back."

Cao Jixia was wearing a tea-white dress, against the screen of lotus flowers that rained down on the side, it really looked like a beautiful woman was blooming all over the building.

Who doesn't love to see beauties?

Although Lin Ke didn't like him in his heart, he still couldn't help but look at him more. Cao Jixia's submissive attitude made her feel at ease, so she curled her lips: "In this case, I will reluctantly agree." She said He walked over to the table, reached for the cup and took two sips.

The steward felt ashamed standing by the side. He actually didn't quite understand why his master insisted on marrying such a thing. When Lin Ke reached for the cup, he hurriedly stepped forward to stop him: "You can't do it! Then It's Lord Cao's cup!"

Lin Ke drank it all, can he still spit it out?She put the quilt on the table and pushed it towards Cao Jixia.

Cao Jixia hated it in his heart and refused to touch it again, so he just twitched the corner of his mouth slightly: "It's not in the way."

Cao Jixia brought quite a few people with him, and he had already searched for a cup of tea. He did find some pink paper. Gathering those pieces of paper into a pile, he turned to the steward: "I'll take these away first, and I'll return them when I find out."

The steward smiled and said: "It's just for the little girl below to play with. It's okay to throw it away after using it up. I don't dare to bother Mr. Cao with hard work."

Cao Jixia nodded, rolled up his sleeves and said to Lin Ke, "Please ask Fujin to lead the way. I'll watch later. They don't dare to mess around."

Lin Ke has been married for a few days, and he is lazy again. In fact, the things have not been confiscated, and the whole house is a bit messy. Naturally, the fewer people who know about it, the better. Hearing what Cao Jixia said, he hurriedly interrupted him: "It's better for Mr. Cao to check it out himself. There are too many people and hands are messed up. What if you lose something?"

Cao Jixia lowered his eyes: "Then lean on Fujin."

Lin Ke led Cao Jixia into her room, and the steward was guarding the door. It's not suitable for the lonely man and widow to be in the same room. It's just that Fujin himself brought up this point, so it's hard for him to say anything. From time to time, I have to poke my head to look in, and I feel more and more resentful towards Lin Ke in my heart.

Cao Jixia stood in Lin Ke's room and looked around. There was no paper, ink, brush and inkstone in the room, but a lot of clothes were piled up in a mess. He frowned, took two steps forward, and vaguely saw something under the chair When I picked it up, it turned out to be a folding fan, which was unusable in the cold weather, and Lin Ke threw it on the ground for some reason.With a flick of Cao Jixia's hand, he unfolded the fan with a swish sound. The bone of the fan was made of high-quality agarwood, inlaid with red coral, and the small characters on the fan were dignified and delicate.

Cao Jixia handed the fan reconciliation to Lin Ke: "The calligraphy of Cianfujin is pretty good."

Lin Ke didn't quite remember the fan anymore, and after thinking about it for a while, she realized that it was probably left by Lin Gantang's mother. She touched the bones of the fan, threw it on the table, and said brazenly, "Where is it, write it for fun." That's all."

Cao Jixia slightly turned his head to look at her, showing a very gentle and doting smile, the corners of his eyes and brows were so moist, against his own vaguely gloomy temperament, there was an unspeakable taste of contradiction, he Staring at Lin Ke, he half coaxed and half seduced, "It would be a great blessing in life if I could see with my own eyes that Jian Fujin paints."

This is a very dangerous signal. The last time Cao Jixia smiled like this, he was still facing Cao Guiren. Now the grass on Cao Guiren's grave may reach his knees, but Lin Ke didn't know about it. The person in front of him is as gentle as jade, but he is bent down, but it makes people feel abusive inexplicably, wishing to tie him up and lock him in the room, telling him to be alone and not to let others See you again.

Lin Ke swallowed his saliva, blushed a little, and hurriedly turned around to rummage through his suitcase.

Seeing her turn around, Cao Jixia immediately put away the expression on her face, feeling a little sick in his heart.

When he was a teenager, he often showed such a smiling face. There are many shameful things in this palace. One wrapped and one thrown out, silently.He resisted at first, and was beaten more and more severely, and almost lost his life; later, he discovered this method, first to make people feel at ease, and then stabbed him from the back. The sword edge wrapped in honey was just to save his life That's all.

Recalling the old incident made him feel uncomfortable all over. Cao Jixia took a breath, raised his hand and touched his wrist, calmed down a bit, and turned to look at Lin Ke.

Lin Ke's dowry bookcase is full of items, but the paper is all kinds of colors, red, white and powder mixed together, but the quality of the paper is not very good, a little thin, Lin Ke opened the inkstone, turned to look for water Cao Jixia walked over to pick up a piece of ink from her ink box, wrapped it in paper and stuffed it into his sleeve, then took out the prepared tung oil smoke ink in his sleeve and squeezed it: "Ci Fujin carefully dirty his hands, I I'll grind it for you." Lin Ke was delighted that someone was following her to serve her, but she didn't pay attention.

Cao Jixia studied the ink, covered the ink cartridge for her, put it away, stood on one side, and Lin Ke sat sideways, pretending that Cao Jixia couldn't see it, and took the fan to line it up, raised the pen to draw red and moved it randomly. On the line, he took the remaining pink paper and handed it to Cao Jixia: "Here, don't you want this pink paper? I'll give it to you together."

Cao Jixia looked down and saw that the poem on the fan was a revolving poem, and he read it in turn, but Lin Ke picked out a sentence vertically from it, and it said on the paper, "The posture is waiting for the peony, and the eyebrows can be folded."

Cao Jixia put the piece of paper away, and nodded to Lin Ke: "The matter is done, don't dare to bother me, I'm going." After speaking, he turned and walked out, recruited his men, and turned to go up The sedan chair just left without dragging its feet.

In the imperial study room, the emperor was still angry, and even a group of people stood there tremblingly. He was a little scared at first, but after noon, his stomach started to get hungry, and he had to keep reading, hoping that Cao Jixia would come soon. , Anyway, it's none of your business, it doesn't matter who dies and who gets hurt, it's more important to fill your stomach, some courageous people are already thinking about whether they should remind the emperor.

The palace maid brought two bowls of bird's nest and gave them to the emperor. The emperor raised his hand and swept the tray to the ground: "Eat, eat, eat! What do you want to eat! How can you have such a thought!" All right, take it out.

Well, let's wait while we're all hungry.

In such a situation, Cao Jixia's arrival seemed to be like a Buddha's light. The little eunuch at the gate registered his name, and a group of people looked at Cao Jixia eagerly, hoping to settle the matter quickly.

Cao Jixia walked into the Imperial Study Room and knelt down in front of the emperor: "My minister Cao Jixia, join the emperor."

The author has something to say: I have nothing to say, the office died halfway through writing, and it is useless even to restore the backup, I am tired, and I don’t want to love anymore.

Over the next chapter, Mr. Cao sang a one-man show, and Wei Feng was about to come out in the next chapter, but he was jumping vigorously.
