Chapter 145: Peace Talks Fail
Hearing the sound of light footsteps behind him, Xie Shixiu raised his eyes and saw that it was Ji Yao's figure, so he unhurriedly put down the teacup in his hand and got up to meet him and said, "Miss Ji Yao, don't come unharmed." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Xie Shixiu always felt different from others when he gave Ji Yao, especially the kind emotions in his eyes every time he saw himself, the kindness seemed to be like seeing old friends, Ji Yao felt that maybe during the time when he lost his memory, Xie Shixiu had dealings.
"Why does Grand Master Xie have time to come to the mansion to drink tea today?" Ji Yao asked, raising his hand to signal him to sit down, and personally adding some tea to his teacup.
Xie Shixiu looked at the person in front of him, but he was smiling and silent, and when Ji Yao raised his eyes to meet his gaze, he said in a hurry: "Originally, I was not free, but I thought that I could see Miss Ji Yao in Changfu today, so I was free." ”
"Huh?" Ji Yao glanced at him strangely, without hiding the surprise in his heart, and asked directly, "I can't see that Grand Master Xie also likes to say such things to coax girls, it's very strange in front of him." ”
Xie Shixiu laughed out loud, but there was a little embarrassment and nervousness in the laughter, Ji Yao heard from this shaking voice that he must have something to do today, but she didn't ask, she wanted to consume Xie Shixiu, and waited for him to speak impatiently.
Sure enough, Xie Shixiu was silent for a while, then picked up the teacup and put down the teacup, drank tea several times, and waited until the teacup was empty before taking a breath and saying, "I came today to talk to you about Ah Xun's family affairs." ”
Ji Yao was very strange in her heart, she and Liu Xun's family affairs had been worried about the eldest son of the Xie family? But after thinking about it carefully, Ji Yao quickly analyzed that Xie Shixiu was so hesitant, he must not be kind enough to worry about her and Liu Xun, but to come for her sister Xie Yue.
"Do you think I'll agree?"
When Xie Shixiu heard this, there was no half unexpected look in his eyes, it seemed that he already knew Ji Yao's answer, since he knew the answer, he still had to come to the door to talk about it, it must be Xie Shixiu who had done a good job, or maybe he was sure and able to persuade Ji Yao to agree.
Ji Yao couldn't help but be vigilant in his heart, only to hear Xie Shixiu pause, and continued: "King Kang's Mansion has not been in the palace for so many years, Ah Xun's identity has always been in an awkward position, if he had started a family earlier, he could have dispelled the emperor's doubts, and when the time comes, King Ding will come forward to intercede for Ah Xun, and Ah Xun will definitely be able to inherit the throne of the prince." ”
"At the moment, I have a very unpleasant quarrel with the East Palace, and my previous relationship with the crown prince is only a piece of window paper, and there is a possibility of breaking up at any time. Since Liu Xun is in a hurry to marry, then I don't mind piercing this layer of window paper early, anyway, I am already tired of maintaining a state of knowing each other's thoughts with the prince but trying my best to maintain it, and now I have pierced this layer of window paper, which can be regarded as a relief. After Ji Yao said this in one breath, he slowly picked up the hot tea on the desk and took a leisurely sip.
Xie Shixiu didn't expect Ji Yao to have such a strong possessive desire for Liu Xun, he came to discuss this matter today, but it was because he heard the drunk Liu Xun talk about his quarrel with Ji Yao last night, and his sister Xie Yue desperately saved money, so he came to the door to try Ji Yao's attitude with the mentality of picking up leaks.
I don't want to touch a hard stake, it's still so hard.
"But Miss Ji Yao, you must know that the Chang family is the richest man in Jinling, and every move has attracted the attention of the imperial court, do you think that your marriage with Ah Xun is too ostentatious? The emperor's jealousy and suspicion of King Kang's mansion may be deepened because of this. ”
Xie Shixiu looked at Ji Yao sincerely, and Ji Yao almost subconsciously retorted, "Although the Xie family has declined, in the past, it was a nobleman with a very high status in the imperial court, and now it is the left arm and right arm of the Dingwang Mansion, Xie Yue and Liu Xun are married, and they don't tell everyone very directly, the Xie family, the Dingwang Mansion and the Kang Wangfu have been tightly embraced? ”
Xie Shixiu shook the folding fan in his hand, leaned over to Ji Yao, and said with a smile: "My sister chose to marry Ah Xun without hesitation when Ah Xun was seriously ill and dying, and this matter has become a beautiful talk in Jinling. Many people are still very sorry, and always hope that Yue'er and Ah Xun can finally become a couple, and it is a matter of course for them to get married. ”
When Ji Yao heard this, she was silent for a while, she didn't know how to answer Xie Shixiu's words, and the sentence of expectation was always stumbling back and forth in her mind.
The person she loved deeply and another woman were blessed by everyone, looking forward to it, she didn't think this matter hurt how hurtful before, but at this moment, from Xie Shixiu's mouth, and the picture of the quarrel with Liu Xun a few days ago flashed through her mind, which really made her feel a little uncomfortable.
"The emperor will not have any doubts because of this, but will have doubts because Ah Xun is not married to Yue'er for a long time. Such an infatuated girl like this, why didn't Ah Xun marry her, do you think the emperor would guess the reason for this? Is it possible that the emperor thinks that Ah Xun is not interested in starting a family, but in other places?"
Xie Shixiu said with his eyes narrowed slightly, staring at Ji Yao tightly, seeing that her expression changed from calm at the beginning to the loss at the moment, he faintly felt some certainty in his heart, and continued to attack the defense line in her heart, "Actually, this matter is not in a hurry, but we recently found that someone was spying on King Kang's Mansion, we checked carefully, and found that the spy who was monitoring was not from the East Palace, I think you should understand what I am talking about." ”
It's not from the East Palace, there may have been a possibility in the past, maybe it was from Zhu Shang, but now that Zhu Shang has mixed into the East Palace, he naturally wants to hide his tail, and he will definitely not do such a thing at this time.
Then these people must be from the palace......
Ji Yao sighed in his heart for a while, took the tea that had been cold, took a sip slowly, looked at the evergreen trees outside the hall with a full business, and said in a deep voice: "Having said so much, the eldest prince of Xie is also dry, drink some tea, I will send someone to personally send the eldest prince Xie back to the house." ”
Ji Yao's evasive attitude just shows that she cares about this matter very much in her heart, Xie Shixiu knows that Ji Yao is an extremely smart woman, and she will definitely weigh the importance and necessity of this matter in her heart, and feels that the goal has been achieved, so she got up and said softly: "Thank you Miss Ji Yao for your kindness, I bothered you today, if Miss Ji Yao has anything to figure out, come to me at any time." ”
Ji Yao ignored him when he heard this, and continued to eat the cold tea in his hand with relish, completely looking like he had nothing to do with himself, Xie Shixiu looked at her and the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, nodded very gently, and turned around and walked out of the hall.
