Shocked, absolutely shocked.

Xiao Zheng even felt a cold sweat on his back.

The maid and the maid outside heard the sound of a broken cup in the house, and asked in a low voice at the door, Xiao Zheng's voice was stiff: "I will come in again and clean up, go to the kitchen to make some fresh pastries, and the others will retreat to three zhang away." ”

Outside it was low, the footsteps faded away, and the outside of the room fell silent again.

Xiao Zheng served as a Jinyi guard, mostly involving confidential matters, he often asked people to withdraw a few feet away when he had visitors, and the little maids and maids who followed him and the maids who served in the study had already become a habit, so he thought that the palace maid who came to visit in the palace should also discuss important matters with him - otherwise, how could the equally steady young master of the Xiao family lightly knock over the teacup!

The corner of Liang Qin's mouth twitched: "You... I think it's crooked. ”

The corners of Xiao Zheng's eyes jumped: "What's the matter?"

Liang Qin looked at him with a surprised expression, and his mood became better for no reason: "The emperor said that after the case is understood, he will point out a marriage for me and give me a name." ”

Is it a princess or a county lord, she doesn't ask for much, the emperor wants to do this, but also to block the mouth of the ministers, otherwise she is now an orphan girl, if she does not have an identity to support, only with the emperor's temporary trust and love, even if she marries, she will not be able to live in peace for long after all.

Xiao Zheng was stunned: "Oh...... That's good, that's good. "That's right—how is the emperor like that... People who are not taboo in meat and vegetarians, after figuring out this matter, Xiao Zheng grinned, as if he was very happy for her, "It would be great to have the emperor presiding over the marriage for you." When you get married, I will definitely collect some things in the capital to add boxes for you. ”

He said it truthfully, his eyes were sincere, and Liang Qin's mood to get better gradually faded inexplicably.

originally thought that he had saved himself at the beginning of the fight, and then they met from time to time in the palace, and then Jiang Nan and his party. Several people acted tacitly, and she had already regarded him and Qin Yuan as excellent friends. The emperor mentioned today that he intended to marry Xiao Zheng, and she was shocked to realize that she might actually like Xiao Zheng a little. Thinking that he is good to himself, he should... Maybe you'll like it a little too, right?

But now he said to himself cheerfully that when she got married, he would find a good object for her to add to the box.

Liang Qin sighed in his heart, yes. He saved her. It was the emperor's arrangement; it was the emperor's arrangement to go to Jiangnan; and even asked the secret decree to arrange for her to go to Jiangnan to help them deal with the affairs of the Liu family's backyard, and she was tied up with her daughters, and it was also to deal with the shortcomings of Jiangnan officialdom, so that she remembered that she was the most suitable person.

But she looked at Xiao Zheng's beautiful eyes at this time, and she was still a little unhappy in her heart - hey, it turned out that he didn't have any affection for herself.

Liang Qin's heart turned a thousand times, the expression on his face was a little stunned, and he looked at Xiao Zheng's cup on the ground. He said softly, "Call someone in and clean up." I've been out of the palace for a long time, and it's time to go back to my life. The emperor rewarded a lot of medicinal materials, you can recuperate well, and the case of the water master will have to wait for some days. ”

Xiao Zheng didn't know that she had thought so much in her heart, seeing that her face was cold, it was no different from usual, and she was not as smiling as Yan Yan just now, and she felt a little inexplicable loss in her heart. But after thinking about it again, she has indeed been out of the palace for a long time, and it is time to go back to the errand. Then he got up, "Well, it's not early, and it's not convenient for you to eat here...... Let's go back early. ”

Liang Qin's expression was faint. Nodding, he said goodbye and went back to the palace.

For several days, except in front of the emperor, whether it was in front of the eunuch Bao Zhengping or in front of the female official Ning Wen, his expression was faint. None of them have a good face.

Ning Wen was suspicious in her heart, but she understood her temperament, and knew that she couldn't ask anything here, so she immediately ran to the chief manager Bao Zhengping and bit her ear: "Why did Miss Qin go to General Xiao's Mansion that day to deliver a reward medicine, and after she came back, she didn't feel very good?"

Bao Zhengping has been immersed in the palace for many years, and has been serving the emperor for some days, so he naturally knows that the emperor has mentioned the matter of planning to marry Liang Qin, and the commander of Wei Xiao, who had seen a cold face, was gentle to Liang Girl's market, and Jiangnan also specially invited Liang Qin to go south to help, and there were three points of speculation in his heart - Xiao You's commander was never a cold-hearted person, but a cold-hearted person, and it was rare to see him so good to that girl, and the palace daughters in the palace saw him and walked around ten zhang away.

Now looking at Liang Qin's appearance after coming back from a trip to General Xiao's mansion, he guessed that he had set seven points in his heart - tsk, the two sides were in love, but they didn't know what they wanted, and they were still young people in the end.

Ning Wen looked at the strange expression on Bao Gonggong's face, whether he was smiling or not, but the corners of his mouth were slightly pursed, his eyes drooped, but his eyes were shining, and he was even more puzzled in his heart: "Could it be that something happened?"

Bao Zhengping shook his head, the corners of his mouth curved, and his smile was unfathomable: "Don't say, don't say, and wait to know." ”

The emperor is kind enough to be a matchmaker, and this marriage is also a good marriage, so he has to deal with this matter for the emperor.

So on the first day of General Xiao's Mansion, he sent away the palace maid who came to visit the palace, and the day after that, he ushered in a friend who also came to visit Xiao Zheng's injury, Cheng'an Hou Shizi, oh, now it should be called Gongbu Langzhong. As soon as Jiangnan came back, the emperor rewarded him for his meritorious deeds, and said that Xiao Zheng and Qin Yuan did a very good job in inspecting Jiangnan, and regardless of the people who were full of old ministers, they promoted two people to officials.

Xiao Zheng, who was originally the right commander of Jinyi Wei, and his status was not low, so he was crowned as the commander of the fourth rank Yu Linwei, and the government and the opposition were shocked.

There are not many military attachés in the capital of Zheng Sipin, but Xiao Zheng is not very old but can get such a position, and the court and the central government have guessed that the emperor is about to use the Xiao family again.

Xiao Zheng couldn't help but be surprised when he saw Qin Yuan, who he hadn't seen for a long time: "What's going on these days? Why do you come to see me one by one? Don't you know that I am lying in bed every day to recuperate, and I have to grow hair?"

Qin Yuan smiled and didn't speak, took out a blue and white vial from his sleeve, the size of a snuff bottle, and threw it over in the air, "The pills made by a friend who has good medical skills are good for internal and external use, and the injury heals quickly." ”

Xiao Zheng grabbed the bottle with his long hand, opened it and smelled it, the faint medicinal fragrance and the fragrance of plants and trees smelled very good, "Good thing!" After speaking, he reached out and touched the sleeve of Qin Yuan, who was sitting beside him, "Tut-tut, sure enough, your medicine is always better than the outside, although your injury is not serious, it is not light, it has only been healed in a few days, it can be seen that your friend's medical skills are very good." ”

Qin Yuan smiled: "I'm going to get married next month, so naturally I have to take care of my body earlier." Moreover, my wounds are lighter than yours. ”

Xiao Zheng raised his eyebrows, his eyes were ambiguous, and he looked at Qin Yuan with a smile, "Pei Gu, that kid is going to marry next year, and he is still married to your own sister--I heard that he often climbs the roof of your mansion... Tsk, I really don't know what your sister looks like, so Pei Gu is so concerned. After speaking, he looked at Qin Yuan with an unkind face, "What about you, did you go to Lord Xia's house to meet your delicate wife who didn't pass through the door?" I guess you have been, but I'm afraid you are not as bold as Pei Gu, and you only dare to look at it from a distance on the roof, right?" )
