Xu Qilin smiled and said humbly: "Xiao Daoer. Nothing like Brother Wang, who practices martial arts and learns skills, one day he can jump into a horse and bend his bow and serve the country on the battlefield."

Wang Fangyi had this ambition, but he had no idea how he could get his long-cherished wish in the future. He heard Xu Qilin say this, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Thank you to Xu Chengji's words, I work harder, I hope that there will be one day."

Xu Qilin said: "Next year, we may use troops to Gaochang, and Brother Wang may volunteer to Your Majesty. Even if we follow the army, it will be good."

Wang Fangyi's eyes lit up, but after thinking about it, he shook his head and said, "This matter is not easy. A certain level of low quality, how can you dare to report to Your Majesty directly?"

Xu Qilin looked at Wang Fangyi and said, "If Brother Wang really has this intention, I will see if I have the chance to tell Your Majesty about it."

Wang Fangyi was overjoyed, bowed and said, "If Xu Cheng is willing to lead, Your Majesty will definitely agree. I will thank you here first."

Xu Qilin hurriedly reached out to help him and said, "Brother Wang doesn't have to do this. I dare not say that it will definitely work. Let's see the opportunity!"

After pausing, Xu Qilin said again: "No matter whether it succeeds or not, if Brother Wang has free time, it is better to learn more about the situation of the countries in the Western Regions, customs, and mountains, rivers and terrain."

Wang Fangyi bowed and thanked him again, "Thank you, Xu Cheng for your advice, I remember it in my heart."

It was almost lunch time, Xu Qilin invited Wang Fangyi to Zuixianlou and then returned to the palace to pay after dinner.

Wang Fangyi is a person with serious work attitude. He only said that he had to report to Shangguan, and politely declined the invitation.

Xu Qilin didn't care either, so he bowed farewell to Wang Fangyi outside Jing'anfang and went home.

"Wow, this is a watermelon, what a big fruit." Scarlett's eyes widened, and he held a big watermelon in his arms, touched it left and right, and it was rare enough.

Ajiani also widened her eyes, reached out to touch the pattern on the watermelon, looked closer and carefully, and seemed to have opened her mouth and grinded her teeth. She probably was thinking about how to get down.

Xu Qilin called the servants and used two watermelons to the town. The weather was hot and the melon peel was so hot that it was warm, so it would definitely not taste good.

Scarlett was interested for a while, then hurried into the house to help Xu Qilin change his clothes. However, Ajiani was not very sensible. She only had big watermelon in her eyes and was still staying in the yard. Her mouth was open and closed, and it was almost draining out of water.

"Alang, how do you eat this big fruit?" Scarlett took off Xu Qilin's clothes and wiped his sweat with a silk towel.

Xu Qilin smiled and said, "Cut it with a knife, and eat the red flesh inside, it's so sweet! When the temple is ready, let you eat enough."

Scarlett smiled and nodded, changed Xu Qilin's clothes and sat down on the sofa, and took a fan to cheer him up.

"Let's eat it later!" Scarlett said sensiblely: "Dalang hasn't come back from Hongwenguan yet, and the little lady is in the palace. It would be a bit rude for us to eat such a precious thing ourselves."

Xu Qilin reached out to touch the maid's face, shaved lightly on his chin, and smiled and said, "Okay, let me listen to you."

Scarlett smiled, reached out and pointed to Ajiani, who was still holding a big watermelon outside, leaned into Xu Qilin's ear and whispered: "Look at whether her greed will come out?"

Xu Qilin smiled and asked, "Don't you just know how to eat, you can't learn anything, right?"

Scarlett hurriedly said, "You can learn arithmetic well, and you don't need to use a wrench finger to calculate addition and subtraction within ten."

"In addition to arithmetic, we also have to know literacy." Xu Qilin smiled maliciously and said, "Don't she likes to eat, just use this to treat her. She can't recognize ten words a day and will not give her food."

Scarlett hurriedly spoke to Ajiani, a foodie, "No need, I'll teach her to read."

"You have to read books and read." Xu Qilin patted Scarlett's arm and said, "This is not only knowledge, but also elegant temperament."

Scarlett nodded and asked tentatively: "Does my family need to learn singing and dancing? Does Alang like it?"

Xu Qilin scratched his chin and thought for a while, and said, "If you are interested, learn, don't force it. It's not necessary to dance, and there is no need to be any difficult ones. I'll just teach you one."

"Can Alang dance?" Scarlett smiled, his big blue eyes curled into crescent moons, which looked very beautiful.

Xu Qilin smiled and stood up and said, "Come on, I'll teach you this. The simplest one is called "Slow Four Steps."

Scarlett walked over with a smile, and then let Xu Qilin take his pose. Then, Xu Qilin counted the rhythm in his mouth and taught Scarlett how to take steps.

"One, two, three, four; two, two, three, four...it is like walking slowly, following this rhythm." Xu Qilin held Scarlett's little hand, put his right hand on her waist, and taught patiently.

Scarlett just thought it was fun at first, but slowly, she became focused and gradually mastered the rhythm.

"Yes, don't be so stiff in your movements, and you should also be moderate in your steps, so you should be naturally soothed."

Scarlett pursed his lips, smiled and stared at Xu Qilin's face, looking at his expression, and listening to his teachings.

"Okay, very good. You need to relax. When you feel my right hand pushing, you rotate along the force. Yes, that's it."

Xu Qilin is really an enthusiastic and patient teacher. Scarlett's footwork is already a little bit, and his body is no longer stiff.

Perhaps because of the difference in height, Scarlett felt a little tired after tilting her head for a long time. She lowered her head forward and her face naturally leaned against Xu Qilin's shoulder, neither light nor heavy.

There was no need to listen to Xu Qilin's command deliberately, and Scarlett was too lazy to open her eyes. She just relied on the body temperature from her skin and the familiar smell from her nose, while she was spinning and walking, her mind was drifting, half drunk and half awake.

………………………….

In the Tang Dynasty, there was a kind of small bird that was most loved by people, whether it was royal relatives, high-ranking officials, frontier soldiers, literati and poets.

This kind of little bird cannot fly high even if it wants to fly. Most of them are locked in jade cages. As pets, they bring joy to people or make people angry.

Parrots were such small birds in the Tang Dynasty. Wu Zetian liked them and Emperor Xuanzong of Tang, and many legends and stories were left behind.

"Hello, hello--" Xu Qilin said twice with his last temperament, but when he saw the parrot opposite him didn't even raise his eyelids, he treated him as air.

"Qi Lin, come and eat watermelon." Xu Qiqiu greeted at the table, and finally made Xu Qilin give up his efforts and walk away in a bad mood.

"This is not a good bird, and I won't say anything nonsense." Xu Qilin took the watermelon and bit it down in a big mouthful. He ate it a little quickly, and several melon seeds were swallowed into his stomach.
