The next morning.

As soon as Xie Yun entered the school hall, he saw the pretty girl in a water-red skirt sitting to the left of his third brother.

When the girl saw him come in, her eyes lit up and a gentle smile appeared at the corners of her lips. They looked at each other and their eyes met. Xie Jun's gaze fixed on her and he felt his heartbeat quicken. He looked away without making a sound.

Luo Qin saw the man in a jet-black robe, with silver tassels hanging on both sides of his jade-white hair crown, a flawless face as bright as the moon, a temperament as pure as a green lotus, and a pair of deep phoenix eyes staring at her, touching her heart.

Luo Qin sighed in his heart, Xie Jun's face, which was so infuriating that it could not be described by the word "handsome".

If the full score for appearance is 100 and the average person is 40 points, then Jin Zhao, Wang Zuo and Cui Jie would be 100 points, Xie Qi and Yu Bai would be 95 points, and he, Xie Yun, would have to be 10,000 points!

When Xie Jun came in, everyone's eyes subconsciously turned to him. There was no way around it; this man was too dazzling, and he attracted everyone's attention wherever he went.

This morning, Master Xiao taught a class on policy essays, where students discussed current political issues with the master and wrote articles to offer suggestions to the court.

During the discussion, Luo Qin learned that some of the lost cities in Yongzhou and Sizhou in the north were recovered, but Bingzhou was in a stalemate and three cities had not been taken back. After fighting for such a long time, the army was tired, so the Jin Dynasty chose to cease fire.

Now that the army has returned to the capital, I think it won’t be long before I can meet General Yu Qilang Yu Bai.

The Jin Dynasty had been fighting with the Xiongnu and Xianbei for more than a year, suffering heavy casualties. In addition, the Jie, Di, and Qiang were eyeing the Jin Dynasty covetously, so the Jin Dynasty had no choice but to choose a truce.

Most of the military power is in the hands of the Yu family. Three cities were not recovered in this battle. I don't know how the emperor will take advantage of this issue. After all, the current emperor has been restrained and marginalized by the Yu family for many years. He must be planning a big move to defeat the Yu family.

That's not right. The Yu family has Empress Yu in the harem, and the eldest prince Jin Si was canonized as the crown prince early on. Luo Ci, the eldest son of the Luo family, is the crown prince's tutor. Like Xie's eldest son, Xie Taifu, they are all close ministers to the crown prince. If something really happened to the Yu family, it would definitely implicate the crown prince, and then the Xie and Luo families would be implicated as well...

However, the current position of the Crown Prince's Tutor is just an honorary title without much real power. Otherwise, the Luo family would not be so eager to use their daughters to marry and curry favor with the powerful. Even if something really happened, it should not involve anyone.

Moreover, Luo Ci is a smooth person. Although he holds the position of a close minister to the Crown Prince, he is also very close to the Emperor...

After the policy essay class ended and school was dismissed in the morning, Luo Qin and Xie Qi went to his Muxueyuan together.

Luo Qin clasped her hands in front of her, walked in lotus steps, and twisted a white embroidered handkerchief with her bare hands placed in her wide sleeves. She raised her eyes to the tall young man beside her and asked softly: "Third cousin, will the eldest cousin also come to your place for dinner today?"

Xie Qi turned around: "Why are you asking this?"

"I...I, I prepared some homemade dishes and wanted to share them with my third and eldest cousins." Luo Qin's cheeks flushed. For some reason, she always felt embarrassed when she talked about Xie Yun.

"Oh~" Xie Qi dragged out the last word, with a hint of teasing in her eyes, "I understand. I'll call my eldest brother over right now."

Xie Qi shouted loudly in the direction of Xie Yun, "Brother, let's go to my Muxueyuan to have dinner together today!"

Xie Yun looked back at his smiling third cousin. Xie Qi was afraid that he would not go, so he said, "Cousin Luo has prepared a meal!"

The meal she prepared?

Thinking of the sweet but not greasy and exquisitely designed pastries last time, Xie Yun was a little tempted.

Seeing Xie Yun's expression slightly relaxed, Xie Qi knew that this arrogant elder brother also wanted to join, so he took two steps at a time and walked to Xie Yun's side and put his arm around his shoulder, "Let's go, let's go. It's rare that cousin Luo is so thoughtful. How can I let down this girl's kindness?"

Xie Yun followed the trend and went to Muxueyuan with Xie Qi.

After they entered Muxue Courtyard and took their seats, Xie Qi knelt down, leaning on the mahogany table, and asked curiously, "Cousin Luo, where are the things you prepared?"

Luo Qin smiled softly: "I'll be there soon."

She ordered Rufang to watch the time and go back to Luo Mansion to get it. It should be here soon.

Sure enough, in less than half a cup of tea, Rufang came over with a chicken wing wood food box.

Luo Qin ordered Rufang to quickly take out the things and place them on everyone's desk.

As soon as the food box was opened, a fragrant aroma wafted in. Rufang took out the food plates and placed them on each person's table.

It is just a simple dish of stir-fried pork, shrimp, chicken breast, beans and green vegetables. The dishes on the porcelain plate are steaming and make people salivate.

Xie Qi leaned over, opened her eyes and took a look, then sighed, "Is this the stir-fry that Cousin Luo mentioned? It looks delicious, I must try it!"

Luo Qin smiled and said, "Thank you, third cousin and eldest cousin, for your kindness."

After Rufang had finished serving the meal, Luo Qin raised her hand to signal the two gentlemen, "My two cousins, please eat."

"good."

Xie Qi and Xie Yun took the jade chopsticks respectfully presented by the servant. Xie Qi couldn't wait to pick up a chopstick and put it in her mouth, tasting it carefully, and then nodded repeatedly: "Great! No wonder you want to open a restaurant, this tastes really good, it's really delicious!"

After receiving Xie Qi's praise, the charming girl pursed her red lips and smiled slightly. Then she looked at Xie Yun again with a look of expectation in her eyes, and asked softly, "What do you think, cousin?"

However, Xie Yun held the jade chopsticks with his slender fingers, and his expression did not fluctuate at all. He simply uttered one word: "Yes."

Hearing this answer, the secret expectation that had just ignited in Luo Qin's heart was immediately extinguished as if by a basin of cold water. She frowned unwillingly, a look of coquettishness flashed in her beautiful eyes, and she lowered her head somewhat angrily.

"Tsk!"

Xie Qi, who witnessed all this, became dissatisfied and pouted and winked at his eldest brother. Xie Jun, on the other hand, just glanced at his third brother, who had a crooked mouth and squinting eyes. He did not receive the message he wanted to convey, but gave him a puzzled look instead.

Seeing this, Xie Qi couldn't help but feel annoyed.

No, I must find a suitable opportunity to teach my elder brother how to please girls. How can he win the favor of his cousin with his clumsy mouth?

In fact, his elder brother has always been able to charm a large group of girls just by relying on his handsome face, and he doesn't need to rely on sweet words to please people.

Xie Yun, sitting on the couch, lowered his head and picked up the twice-cooked pork from the white porcelain glazed plate with the jade chopsticks in his hand, and ate it slowly with the white rice.

Wu Yan stood beside her husband and saw that he added dishes faster than before. It was obvious that he liked the food very much, but he just didn't like to tell the truth.
