If the time, place, and people are favorable, if all three are present, everything will be possible.
The principle is simple and easy to understand, but it is not easy to actually do it.
Li Yong frowned, waiting for Xia Shang's next instructions.
Xia Shang didn't seem to want to say anything more, and simply said: "This matter should not be made public yet. The prince only needs to wait for the people in the capital to change, and then hand the magic pen to the emperor."
"When hearts change, why?"
"The prince will know by then."
After that, Xia Shang Qiaoqiao left the palace and returned to her own house in the carriage she came from.
By the time Xia Shang returned, it was already dark, his family had already eaten dinner, some servants were cleaning the yard, and a few female disciples from Shuiyue Villa were practicing swordplay in the open space in the yard.
It was also at this time that the courtyard became freer. Rumor has it that martial arts practitioners have been practicing martial arts for ten years, and they do not miss any homework every day during their free time.
Seeing these gorgeous girls waving their swords in unison, Xia Shang thought to himself that the rumors were true.
Xia Shang looked at the girls under the night, and the girls also saw Xia Shang.
There were several enthusiastic girls waving to Xia Shang happily, but they looked very blurry in the falling snow.
Only then did Xia Shang notice the snowflakes that looked like soot and flying catkins in the night. It was really pitiful to see those thinly dressed girls practicing their swords in the snow.
Even if she has the internal strength to keep out the cold, she is still a delicate little girl, and in a secular home she should be hiding in a boudoir by the fire to keep warm.
Xia Shang walked over and saw Yue Lingbo behind the girl.
Yue Lingbo wore a cloak with a serious expression and meticulously monitored the disciples' sword practice. The girl who just greeted Xia Shang was severely reprimanded by her.
"A busy man, you are finally back?" Yue Lingbo came to Xia Shang and asked teasingly.
She was recuperating at Xia's house and did not go anywhere. Fairy Lingbo, who seemed not to care about anything, also observed Xia Shang's life.
For some reason, Yue Lingbo felt a little uncomfortable when he saw Xia Shang running around outside all day long without seeing anyone.
Even she herself didn't know where the discomfort came from. She secretly told herself how other people lived their lives, so what was she doing to herself?
But now when he saw Xia Shang come back and didn't explain anything, the discomfort before came to mind again.
I couldn't help but come up with a few insulting words.
"It's true that he is the boss of an official family. He has a lot of things to do every day. Either a girl from this family or a beauty from that family invites you. He didn't say a word when he came back. I don't know how the ladies in your family can tolerate you like this."
Xia Shang was stunned by what Yue Lingbo said, wondering where the other party's anger came from?
Xia Shang didn't know what to say, so he opened his mouth but didn't spit out a word.
Yue Lingbo was the same, he felt something was wrong as soon as he said it, but after he said it, the more he explained, the more weird he became.
The only ones who behaved normally were the disciples around them.
They had never seen their master speak so many words and such long sentences in one breath, but they knew that their master had changed when he met Mr. Xia, and any unusual behavior would become ordinary.
Xia Shang and Yue Lingbo looked at each other awkwardly in the snow for several seconds. Yue Lingbo took the lead in avoiding Xia Shang's eyes, looked away, and whispered: "You heard wrong, I didn't say anything."
"Ha...ha..." Xia Shang smiled awkwardly, his mouth twitching unnaturally, and he quickly changed the subject, "Well...it's snowing so late and it's so heavy...you still want them to practice swordsmanship?"
"The important thing in practicing martial arts is persistence. If you retreat because of this little bit of wind, snow and cold, how will you face life and death in the future?"
"Well... that's true, but it's a bit too harsh." Xia Shang continued to smile dryly, then turned to ask the girls around him, "Are you cold?"
The girls all replied with a smile: "It's cold, it's so cold!"
"Master Xia is right, Master is very strict with us."
"Mr. Xia, please take the time to take care of your master. Our master only listens to your words."
Yue Lingbo turned around and glared, and the girls who were chattering like little tits quickly stopped talking.
"Okay, okay, let them rest. How can a master torment his disciples like this?"
Yue Lingbo wanted to refuse, but turned around and looked at Xia Shang's silly smiling face. By some strange coincidence, he followed Xia Shang's wishes and waved to the disciples behind him: "It's time to leave. Let's write down today's homework for now. The weather will be better tomorrow."
Make it up again."
The girls couldn't believe it and were stunned for a moment, but they quickly came to their senses and shouted with joy. They all sheathed their swords, then gathered together and started rubbing their hands together to breathe.
"Thank you, Master. Thank you, Mr. Xia."
With thanks one after another, the girls all left, except
Two people, Xia Shang and Yue Lingbo, were left behind.
But these girls were so big-hearted that they did not go far. Instead, they hid under the eaves not far away and watched the two of them. A few girls could vaguely be seen talking furtively, and the conversation was obviously not healthy.
topic.
"These guys are getting more and more outrageous!" Yue Lingbo couldn't help but turned around angrily.
Xia Shang reached out and hit her on the shoulder: "Okay, let them go."
Yue Lingbo glanced at Xia Shang's hand on her body, thinking that this guy would take it back knowingly, but he didn't expect this guy to be so shameless that instead of taking it back, he squeezed it gently, and then
A playful smile.
"you……"
"Look at your thin body..."
As Xia Shang spoke, he took off his thicker cloak and put it on Yue Lingbo's body naturally.
This move instantly extinguished the fire in Yue Lingbo's heart. On the contrary, he was a little embarrassed and struggled to retreat: "Oh, what are you doing for me? I am a martial arts practitioner and I am not afraid of the cold. But you, a soft and weak person
You weak scholar, if I freeze, I won’t be able to explain to your wife.”
"You're not practicing martial arts, your body is really cold. Just put it on if I tell you to."
Xia Shang was a little domineering. He put a cloak on Yue Lingbo and held her shoulders firmly. It looked like the two of them were hugging each other affectionately.
Now Yue Lingbo was a little panicked, showing her daughter's shyness, struggling harder, her voice trembling: "You...don't be like this, so many people are watching..."
"You mean if no one sees me, I can hold you like this?"
"You! How can you be so shameless!"
Yue Lingbo said this, but moved his steps and hid further in the shadows.
In the snowy night, visibility was very low. Yue Lingbo hid under the courtyard wall, leaning against the wall and staring at Xia Shang, who was only a short distance away: "What do you want?"
His words were confident, and if you saw the blushing face, you would know how guilty the fairy was at this moment.
Xia Shang pressed his hands on the wall and leaned forward, forming a small world to surround the seemingly petite fairy.
For a moment, Yue Lingbo felt it was difficult to breathe. Seeing the other party getting closer and closer, his strong support became weaker and weaker: "You...don't come here..."
