Chapter 109 Li Xin's Pursuit

Chunyu Yue naturally noticed Li Xin's gaze, but he pretended not to see it.

He pretended to be calm on his face, but in fact he felt quite uncomfortable: "Since when did my brother-in-law start to have bad luck? He received awards one after another. When I met him before, I could give him a few words and teach him how to behave.

I want to teach him the etiquette of being an official in the court. Now...I feel embarrassed to reprimand him anymore. Alas, I am really not used to it."

Chunyu Yue felt sour in his heart when he thought that Li Xin, a rude and rude guy, could do better than himself in the court.

He was a little puzzled: "What kind of world is this? Why can people like Huaiguzi and Li Xin live a prosperous life, but a handsome gentleman like me has to live in poverty?"

Chunyu Yue shook his head imperceptibly, then sighed again and forcibly comforted himself by saying, "Wealth, honor and disgrace are like floating clouds to me."

After being comforted in this way, Chun Yuyue's heart gradually became more balanced: "Huh, so what if you are rewarded? If your virtue is not worthy of it, you will still be despised. Even if a great scholar like me, Chun Yuyue, is depressed and frustrated, he will still be despised.

People respect you.”

After thinking this way, Chun Yuyue's waist straightened.

Li Xin watched from not far away and secretly wondered: "What is this old guy so proud of? What is so impressive about him?"

After the court meeting, all the officials filed out. Li Xin walked quickly towards Chunyu Yue, shouting as he walked: "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law..."

Chunyu Yue pretended not to hear, trotted out of the palace with flying steps, jumped on the carriage, and hurried back home.

After arriving home, Chunyu Yue breathed a sigh of relief and finally got rid of this guy.

As a result, less than a quarter of an hour later, there was a sound of banging on the door, and then Li Xin shouted: "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, please open the door."

Chunyu Yue's face turned green: "What? You chased me home? Do you really want to show off?"

Chunyu Yue ordered his servants: "Just pretend you didn't hear anything and don't open the door."

As a result, Li Xin shouted outside again: "Sister-in-law, please open the door quickly. I want to pay homage to my eldest sister. Let me go in and burn incense sticks for her."

Chunyu Yue sneered: "Pay homage to Li Ji? It has been so many years since Li Ji passed away, and you only think of paying homage to her?"

Li Xin yelled for a while, but when no one paid attention, he suddenly cried loudly outside the door: "Eldest sister, eldest sister. Today, I have received another reward from your majesty. I will give you a first-class title and a thousand acres of fertile land. I will bring glory to you, little brother."

Eldest sister, you must be very happy if you know the truth. The younger brother originally wanted to go into the house to complain, but my sister-in-law was jealous and wouldn't let me in..."

Li Xin cried until this point, and the door of the mansion suddenly opened.

Chunyu Yue stretched out his arm, grabbed Li Xin's clothes, and pulled him into the mansion. Then he closed the door with a bang.

Li Xin chuckled and said, "Sister-in-law, I didn't expect that you look thin, but you are quite strong."

Chunyu Yue was so angry that his whole body trembled: "You don't want to be shameless, but I still want it. No wonder you hang out with Huaiguzi all day long. You two really have the same temperament. I think you are as shameless as Huaiguzi."

Li Xin said modestly and sincerely: "Where, where. Compared with Brother Huai, there is still a big gap between me and Brother Huai."

Chunyu Yue felt that his lungs hurt a little, his chest was a little tight, and his head was a little dizzy. For some reason, he suddenly thought of Wang Jian who was so angry that he vomited blood.

Chunyu Yue took a deep breath, waved his hand and said, "Li Xin, you can do it yourself. I don't want to care about you anymore."

Later, Chun Yuyue returned to his study room, intending to read a book, rest his mind, and quiet his mind. Finally, he read a sentence: "It is very pleasant to have friends coming from afar."

That heart ached again.

After Chunyu Yue left, Li Xin looked around furtively and then began to wander around Chunyu Yue's mansion.

"There is an expert hiding in this mansion. He has cracked Brother Huai's immortal wine? Where can he hide it?" Like a thief, Li Xin quietly searched Chunyu's mansion.

It didn't take long, and Li Xin actually discovered a small courtyard.

This small courtyard is deep in the mansion. It is very quiet. At the door of the courtyard, there are two little maids standing. The little maids were chatting and looking around warily, as if they were worried that someone with malicious intentions would approach.

Li Xinxin thought: "If you are so careful, there must be a ghost."

He walked around the small courtyard and decided to jump over the wall and get in. The wall of this small courtyard was not high, especially for a warrior like Li Xin.

Li Xin took a few steps, raised his feet and used strength on the wall. He jumped into the air and stretched out his hand to hold the top of the wall.

Later, Li Xin almost cried in pain. On the wall, there was a row of sharpened stones. He pressed his palm on it and was instantly pricked.

Fortunately, Li Xin was a man of great perseverance. He gritted his teeth and climbed up the wall, and then jumped into the courtyard wall.

As soon as I jumped down, I felt a stinging pain in my ankle. The ground looked normal, but there were actually a lot of sharpened bamboos buried underneath.

Fortunately, Li Xin was lucky enough to step between two bamboos and only scratched his skin a little. Otherwise, the sole of his foot would have been punctured.

Li Xin gritted his teeth with hatred, it was really insidious.

He carefully kicked away the bamboo on the ground, but the ground beneath his feet suddenly collapsed and a big pit appeared. Fortunately, Li Xin was good at climbing up.

Unfortunately, by this time, he had already been discovered. I don't know where the sound of bells sounded first, and then the rapid sound of gongs.

A few seconds later, the servants of Chunyu Mansion arrived and kicked Li Xin out of Chunyu Mansion.

Li Xin stood at the door of the mansion, thoughtfully: "That master lives in that small courtyard? What is his origin? Why are there so many traps?"

Li Xin was puzzled. Now that he had alerted the enemy, he probably wouldn't see anyone again if he went to that small courtyard, so he had no choice but to shake his head and leave.

Chunyu Mansion, small courtyard.

The girl stood at the door and said quietly: "You are not safe here anymore. They have found me and are here to kill me."

Chunyu Yue said: "He is not an assassin, he is my brother-in-law."

The girl said: "How do you know that your brother-in-law is not an assassin? Those people are pervasive."

Chunyu Yue smiled bitterly and said, "My brother-in-law is as stupid as a pig."

After hearing this, the girl breathed a sigh of relief and said: "If they are idiots, they are definitely not them. But even so, I can't live in this yard anymore. You can find another place for me."

Chunyu Yue said: "I have a lot of idle rooms in my house. You can choose whatever you want. But, how about the convex lens?"

The girl said: "I have some features."

Chunyu Yue suddenly felt something in his heart and asked, "Any clues?"

The girl hummed and said, "I have thought about it for more than ten days and finally figured out one thing. The so-called magnification of this convex lens is not to enlarge the east and west, but to enlarge the appearance of this thing."

Chunyu Yue was a little confused when he heard this: "What's the difference?"

The girl said: "When I was seven years old, my father was still alive. One day I went to play in his study and accidentally dropped water on his letters."

"I wanted to wipe away the drop of water, but suddenly I found that through this drop of water, the characters on the bamboo slips became larger. I was surprised and observed for a long time, until the drop of water completely dried up, and the characters on the bamboo slips returned to normal.

The original status quo.”

"So I guess that the so-called magnification of this convex lens is the same as that of the drop of water. It makes you look like this thing has become bigger."

"It's like the sun in the sky. It's as big as a car hood when it rises, and it's like a disk at midday. In fact, the sun is still the sun, and it has never changed. It's just that for some reasons, in the eyes of us mortals, it looks bigger or smaller. I

A bold guess is that the reason for this is the same as the principle of water droplets and convex lenses."

Chunyu Yue couldn't help but sigh: "The girl is indeed amazing. But what is the principle?"

The girl rolled her eyes and said, "If I really knew the reason, I would have made a convex lens long ago. I asked you to buy a piece of crystal for me to figure out, but why haven't you bought it yet?"

Chunyu Yue said helplessly: "Crystals are rare, especially crystal clear crystals. They are priceless treasures that can only be found but not sought."

The girl said helplessly: "That's all, I'll think about it myself."

Then she looked at the sun in the sky and said with some confusion: "Did the person who made the convex lens already know the secret of the sun? How did he do it? Is there such a smart person in the world? How is this possible?

?”

The girl asked Chunyu Yue: "Who is this man? Do I know him?"

Chunyu Yue shook his head: "He is just a nobody. The girl must not know him."

The girl had no choice but to nod her head, choose another small courtyard, and then command Chunyu's servants to start digging traps...

After Li Xin left Chunyu Mansion, he mounted his horse and let the horse walk slowly towards his home. And he himself began to think about the small courtyard in Chunyu Mansion.

Suddenly, Li Xin heard a burst of excited conversation: "Brother Zhou, have you been invited too?"

Another person said: "Is it Brother Wang? It seems that you can get through this difficulty."

Li Xin looked up and saw two courtiers.

The two people talked happily. Li Xin listened for a while and probably understood what was going on.

It turned out that these two people had gotten wind of the news leaked by Zhou Qingchen, so they sent generous gifts to Li Shui.

Li Shui has listed them in the top ten, made friends with them, and invited them to dinner.

These two people went to the Shangjun Courtyard outside the city for a banquet.

The two of them were very happy that they finally turned enemies into friends with Li Shui. Then they were a little excited because they were going to have the legendary banquet filled with fairy wine and steamed buns.

Li Xin listened for a while and secretly despised it in his heart: "The colon cleansing banquet is so exciting. I won't even go if you invite me."
