Cao Xuan's expression suddenly stiffened.

Who in the Manchu Dynasty didn't know that Empress Dowager Cao wanted to marry Jiang Xian for him.

Who inside and outside the forbidden palace didn't know that Jiang Xian had never disdained to deal with him.

He felt that he was a joke in the eyes of the meritorious family.

But he didn't dare to disobey - his grandfather was sealed because of his in-laws, and he died in three generations. The Zhenguo Mansion is one of the ten founding mansions. In the 223-year history of the Zhao Dynasty, the ten major princes were either taken away, or died on the battlefield, or because of the dispute between the heirs, or because of the mediocrity of the descendants. Don't talk about it, let's just say that the current Zhenguo Gong Zhen Jiang Zhenyuan, he only has one son, Jiang Lu, who looks white and pure, but he can pull a two-stone bow at the age of fifteen, and last year Datong was invaded by the Tartars, and he led the cavalry of the three armies to encircle and suppress the Tartars 10,000 horses...... Who doesn't want to climb such a person?

And their Cao family is just a queen mother.

This queen mother is also at odds with the mother-in-law of the second master of the Zhenguo Mansion, that is, Jiang Xian's maternal grandmother, the Empress Dowager.

Cao Xuan feels a headache every time he thinks of this intricate relationship.

However, Empress Dowager Cao does not believe in evil, and thinks that man will win the sky, so he has to coax Jiang Xian into his hands.

If her aunt finds out that he is perfunctory to her in Jiang Xian's marriage, she can also let him peel off his skin if he does not have nothing.

He didn't want to touch the tiger's whiskers.

Thinking of this, Cao Xuanpi looked at Li Qian with a smile.

Which pot is not opened and which pot is mentioned, knowing that he can't handle it, the county lord of Jianan still said such things, this Li Qian is mocking him, right?

Li Qian's eyes widened, and his expression looked confused and confused, as if he didn't know how Cao Xuan suddenly became like this.

Cao Xuan hesitated for a moment.

The Li family was born as bandits, and after Zhao'an, the Empress Dowager Cao dispersed the personnel, transferred Li Changqing and several generals to Fujian, and secretly ordered Jing'an Hou to secretly supervise them. This time, if it weren't for the Li family following Wang Dehai's path, the general army of Datong was shot by Tatars last year, and there was no army to balance Jiang Zhenyuan for the time being, how could the Li family and his son take a step out of Fujian. It is also possible that the Li family did not hear these rumors in the officialdom.

He thought of interacting with Li Qian these days, Li Qian's frank and chivalrous temperament...... I don't think I'm too suspicious!

Reasoning, when their Li family was about to flatter him, Li Qian was a person who knew that advancing and retreating was irrelevant and would not embarrass people, so how could he not make such a mistake.

Cao Xuan couldn't help but let out a long sigh and said, "My marriage has to be considered in the long run!"

When the Li family was a bandit in Shanxi, they made some trouble, and the Li family accounted for 129 counties in 3 prefectures and 11 prefectures in 78 counties in 16 prefectures in 5 prefectures. If it weren't for Li Changqing's military advisor Mr. Fu Yu saying that the Zhao dynasty was not exhausted, Li Changqing would have attacked west and entered Xi'an Mansion a long time ago. This is also one of the reasons why when the imperial court came to recruit An, the Li family immediately surrendered.

It's just that the Li family didn't expect the Empress Dowager Cao to be so powerful, and transferred the Li family army to Fujian, where he was unfamiliar with his life.

and then was crushed to death by Jinghai Hou.

This time, the Empress Dowager Cao summoned the Li family into Beijing, for the Li family is the result of their hard work and hard work, naturally they can only succeed and not fail, Mr. Fu Yu's personal disciple Mr. Huaiyin entered Beijing as early as half a year ago, although the matter between the gate valves in the capital dare not say that he knows, but this thing on the surface is clear, otherwise he accidentally offends a person, and the relationship is not pulled but an enemy, then it will be troublesome.

Maybe it will cause trouble because of a small thing.

How could Li Qian not know about things like Empress Dowager Cao wanting Cao Xian to marry the county lord of Jianan?

He just wanted Cao Xuan to shut up.

Li Qian's goal was achieved, and he also smiled and handed Cao Xuan a ladder: "Chengengong, then will we go back to Kunning Palace now?" I have finished my duty, and I will enter the palace tomorrow afternoon, I will accompany you to Kunning Palace!"

Cao Xuan really didn't mention this matter anymore.

He pursed his lips when he heard this, and said disappreciatively: "I don't remember when I sent red bean cakes to the Queen Mother, who do you want me to ask?"

Li Qian was surprised, and secretly felt a little unhappy in his heart.

He saw Cao Xuan so respectful to the county lord of Jianan before, and thought that Cao Xuan couldn't ask Jiang Xian, but now it seems that it is nothing more than that.

But Jiang Xian is the county lord after all, and there is no place to offend Cao Xuan, Cao Xuan said this in private, which is too disrespectful.

Li Qian said: "Then aren't you going to deliver red bean cakes to the county lord of Jianan?" His voice was deeper than it had been before.

Cao Xuanzheng was distressed by this matter, and did not notice Li Qian's difference, but said impatiently: "That Qinghui Township Monarch is the mouthpiece of the county lord of Jianan, since she came to pass the word, it is also the meaning of the county lord of Jianan." If you don't send it, you won't be able to ......."

If Empress Dowager Cao knew that he had refused this opportunity to take the initiative to send him to the door to offer his courtesy, she would definitely call him to clean up fiercely.

He paused and said, "But it's impossible for me to find red bean cakes for them all over the street...... Just deal with it casually......" Speaking of this, he patted Li Qian's shoulder and said with great interest, "You will accompany me out of the palace later! Let's go to Nantonggu Lane to go shopping, there are many snacks there, let's buy some and send them to the palace when we look at it." In case I don't see it, I ask the cook at home to make a few boxes, and I can also ask my aunt for leave. If she had known that I had made a decision in advance for this matter, she might have rewarded me with two pocket money!"

Li Qian frowned almost invisibly, but quickly stretched it out, his eyes flashed slightly, and he said with a smile: "Cheng'en Gong has a life, how dare he disobey!"

The two left the palace with a smile.

Bai Su had already returned to the West Third Institute, cleaned his face and combed his hair again, changed his clothes, and went to the East Third Institute.

Four or five palace maids were surrounding Jiang Xian with copper basins or watering cans, and Jiang Xian was holding a plain cloth of white silk to rub the leaves of the orchids that had just budded in the pot.

Seeing Bai Su come in, she threw the handkerchief in her hand into the basin and said with a smile: "I'm back!"

Bai Su nodded.

The palace maid had already carried a copper basin containing warm water to Jiang Xian's hand.

Jiang Xian washed his hands and said with a smile: "What do you have to say to me?" ”

Bai Su smiled and said, "If you invite me to tea, I will sue you." As he spoke, he took the cotton towel from the hand of the palace maid next to him and handed it to Jiang Xian.

Jiang Xian wiped his hands and instructed the servants around him: "This pot of orchids should bloom in the next two days, you should take care of it." When the flowers bloomed, they were sent to the Queen Mother. ”

The palace maids bent their knees one after another.

Bai Jie took the balm on the tray of red begonia flowers and helped Jiang Xian wipe his hands.

"If you don't sue, I can do it. Jiang Xian smiled at Bai Su and said, "When Cheng Engong comes in and brings you red bean cakes, I'll ask Cheng Engong again." ”

"Bao Ning!" Bai Su reached out to scratch Jiang Xian's armpit, "You let people eavesdrop on me again." ”

Jiang Xian smiled and hid to the side: "I just want to know when the Queen Mother rewarded me with red bean cakes? When did I suddenly like to eat red bean cakes?"
