idle king

Chapter 126

Zhong Xinhuan, who was behind him, heard that Ye Chu was not here to find him, and his originally shining eyes also dimmed.It's just that because she lowered her head, others couldn't see it.

"I don't know what Ye Gongzi asked me for?"

Her younger brother was a restless character, although it was a little rude to sneak out in front of Mr. Qin, but in terms of his status, it was not a big deal worth talking about.

But Ye Chu was different.

After all, you just got the old man's reward, and then you left without making a sound in the blink of an eye.I can't justify anything.

Don't look at those people at the banquet pretending to be deaf and dumb, as if they didn't see it, maybe after tomorrow, this matter will be spread all over the city.

Of course, they won't say it in person because of their identities, but as long as they pretend to be casual chatting, they will understand and follow the rhythm.At that time, it is not surprising that there will be various slanders.

Zhou Jing believes that Ye Yu should also know these things in his heart.But in the end he still came with Zhou Chen, so it is worth deliberating.

Could it be that something happened to the master who lives in his house?

Ever since Master lived in Ye Mansion, she has sent secret sentries around Ye Mansion.But since he went to visit Master in Ye Mansion yesterday, he was denied by Master.Said that if something really happened to the teacher, those people you arranged would probably already be dead.And let her see her less in the future.

Therefore, she doesn't know what is going on with the master now.

"The princess misunderstood."

Ye Yu's ability to observe words and expressions was not built. Seeing the change in the eyes of the princess, he guessed what she was thinking.So he quickly explained: "I want to ask the princess some numbers."

"What number? If it's a question about arithmetic, I'm afraid the county chief has disappointed Mr. Ye." At this point, Zhou Jing seemed to have thought of something, and then her face became a little strange.

Qin Wanqing, who was at the side, planned to leave with the other two sisters first, but at this moment she suddenly heard the two talking about numbers, and she also stamped her feet again.

"Well, hehe... I came in a hurry, I forgot to bring paper and pen. Otherwise, I will write on the slate."

At this moment, Qin Wanqing, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke.

"If Mr. Ye doesn't mind, then follow along."

Hearing this, Ye Chu quickly cupped his hands and said politely: "How dare you, how dare you, I'm just disturbing a few beauties."

As soon as he finished saying this, Ye Chu wanted to give himself a slap in the face.

Damn, come on.

In later generations, these words are as common as eating, but in ancient times, they were blatantly flirting.

Fortunately, the few people didn't mind much. Afterwards, Ye Chu was pulled by Zhou Chen, and the two of them linked shoulders and arms, and followed Qin Wanqing and others closely behind.

boudoir?Think too much.

Speechless all the way.

On the contrary, there was a girl in front of him who glanced sideways at Ye Chu from time to time, which made him feel a little terrified.

Well, I heard from Wang Bo before that the girl seems to be the second lady of the Gao Mansion.The Gao Mansion is also a scholarly family in Jinling, but it doesn't have the background of the Qin family.

After going around in a circle, everyone came to a hall near the back house of the Qin Mansion.

Usually this place is used to receive some not very important guests.Since it is inconvenient to bring the two of them into the back house, I have no choice but to come here temporarily.

As soon as I entered the hall, it was much warmer.

Different from Ye Yu's slightly reserved expression, the expressions of the others are much more natural.

Not long after they were seated, a maid came in with a chessboard and the Four Treasures of the Study, placed them gently in front of several people, and then quietly withdrew.

"Haha, come, come, my son will fight with several sisters for [-] rounds. Which one of you will come first?"

I saw Zhou Chen pull the chessboard in front of him, then laughed arrogantly, and said to the women.

It's a pity that at this moment, several beauties have their own concerns.

Xiaohuan only took a polite look at herself because Ye Yu had been there for a long time, and she lowered her head sullenly, looking absent-minded.

Because Qin Wanqing knew something and wanted to confirm her guess, she naturally had no intention of playing with him.

As for Zhou Jing, she had something to say to Ye Chu, but she ignored him.

Therefore, among the crowd, only Gao Yuying had nothing to do.It's just that she didn't have much interest in chess and the like.

In her mind, since this backgammon also uses a Go board, it must not be as easy to learn as Zhou Chen fooled, so the enthusiasm is not high.

Seeing no one playing backgammon with him, Zhou Chen expressed his sadness.

Hey, this is different from the script I thought before!

But fortunately, after Zhou Chen's reassurance, as well as hard work, Zhong Xinhuan and Gao Yuying finally succeeded in getting Zhong Xinhuan and Gao Yuying to agree to play with him.

"Please look, princess."

Zhou Chen had a great time playing over there, while Ye Yu wrote a row of Arabic numerals and a few simple mathematical symbols on the paper in front of the Princess.As for Qin Wanqing next to her, he didn't deliberately shy away from it.Anyway, according to what Zhou Chen said, no accidents, people also know.

"I didn't expect Mr. Ye to recognize these numbers." Looking at the numbers written by Ye Chu, although Zhou Jing didn't say it clearly, she also tacitly acknowledged that she knew these symbols, but her expression was a little complicated.

She naturally recognized these numbers and many weird symbols, all of them were from the book Uncle Huang gave her.

As far as she knew, this book was only available in the Royal Library, and it was only because the crown prince accidentally found it that Uncle Huang agreed to let the crown prince figure it out by himself.

Although she couldn't understand it, after Qin Wanqing read it and told her about its great role in arithmetic and studying things, she finally understood why her father called it an evil book.

"The princess really knows it?!" Ye Yu never noticed the strangeness on Zhou Jing's face.

At this time, he had already been stunned by this shocking news, and there was only one voice echoing in his mind.

It turns out that you also traveled here!

It turns out that you are the same as me!
However, when he finally came to his senses, he suddenly discovered a more serious problem.

Undoubtedly, this advanced thing was made by the grandfather, and it is obviously in the hands of the royal family.But such epoch-making Arabic numerals, why have they not been popularized after so many years.Not to mention anything else, if it is only applied to bookkeeping, it will not be a running account like it is now.

And think about it further, is there any connection between the death of grandfather and uncle and this?

As a traveler, there are indeed great advantages.However, once something is too advanced and threatens the imperial rule and noble officials, it will inevitably lead to death.

He didn't believe that just because of a few numbers threatened the imperial power.But my grandfather traveled through time, and now there are no poems that he is familiar with, nor other advanced things, such as liquor, tea and so on.

So what did my grandfather do 19 years ago to cause the death of a third-rank official in the imperial court.Afterwards, not only did the court keep silent, but my father's uncles were also afraid to avoid it.

Huh, it seems that I still need to have a detailed discussion with my father about my grandfather's life.

"I just want to know now, where did Mr. Ye know this?"

After recovering from his contemplation, Ye Chu met the Princess Youyou's eyes.
