Chapter 216: Something Happens

Third brother. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Who else can be the third brother of the current prince?

It is both the free king Hanye.

When King Xiaoyao said it from Hanqi's mouth, and those words were very ambiguous, Xiao Chu's heart, which had been hanging all the way, was completely attached to the top this time.

Prince.

The Easy King.

These two princes who are most likely to compete for the throne are now inquired by the prince with a smile, saying that she and King Xiaoyao are old friends.

If Han Qi's words were asked casually, how not like he was hidden, Xiao Chu's heart was also clear.

Han Qi's words are by no means a simple conversation. Since ancient times, the Heavenly Family has been the most ruthless, and under the influence of power, no one has only that authority in their eyes.

What kind of family affection, what kind of relationship between father and son, in front of these rights, these feelings have long been indifferent under the influence of interests. Brothers who have no ambition and no ability may lose their lives in vain due to the fear and suspicion of other brothers in this struggle for power, not to mention the talent of King Yao.

Smart since childhood, he was deeply favored by the emperor, and his biological mother was the emperor's favorite woman in his life, and his maternal uncle was also a hussar general in all directions. With such a talent, this kind of luck that has far surpassed others since the moment he was born, Rao is King Xiaoyao does not have half the intention of snatching the world, I am afraid it is also very convincing and unsettling.

Compared with Han Ye, Han Qi is not inferior to this third brother in everything, but sometimes, if you don't lose in learning, you can't determine a person's life, and your life may have been decided from the moment you were born. How did this prince of Hanqi come about, he knew in his heart that if he was not the eldest son, if he was not raised under the queen's knees now, how could he be qualified to be this prince.

Even if it is this position of the crown prince who is orthodox according to the words and teachings of his ancestors, Han Qi is clear in his heart. His own crown prince, his father is not very recognized, his father is the most favored in his heart is Han Ye, his third brother, who is the most indisputable free king.

To be honest, if it weren't for the strong recommendation of the civil officials, if it weren't for the fact that the queen had a certain authority in the harem of the former dynasty, I am afraid that he, the crown prince, would have become an idle king long ago.

There is no dispute between the king of Xiaoyao, but not every emperor is fighting for himself.

He has no quarrel, but someone wants to fight for him.

The power behind Han Ye is by no means comparable to the crown prince, if he hadn't been able to take the position of crown prince, he wouldn't have done anything to make people poke his backbone, I'm afraid he would have been dragged down by the person who was eyeing him.

Han Ye is a person with practical learning, Wen Tao is martial, he is proficient in everything, and he has such a peerless and thoughtful third brother by his side.

How can Han pray be at ease.

His heart, as long as Han Ye is still there, as long as this throne has not yet reached his hands, he will not be at ease for a day.

Therefore, Han Ye, this King of Ease, anyone who gets too close to him will be the object of the prince's attention.

The prince's words were really like small talk, but they were enough to shock Xiao Chu's heart. When the heart fell straight down, sinking and pressing, that is, after the whole heart shook directly, Xiao Chu pursed his lips and calmed down, and then said: "The prince is asking if the Xiao family and King Xiaoyao are familiar with each other?" ”

"What? Isn't it that this prince inquired about something that made Miss Xiao embarrassed? ”

The prince laughed. Han Qi's words fell, Xiao Chuxuan had already bowed slightly by sitting down, and then said: "It's just an idle inquiry, how can there be a gift of inquiry." It's just that the prince asked this time......"

The voice paused slightly, and after a pause, Han Qi was already inquiring and said, "It's just that this prince inquired this time, what's wrong?" ”

"It's just the familiar things that the prince asked, and it's hard to say whether it's familiar or not."

"Miss Xiao is afraid that she is joking, this familiarity is familiarity, and if you are not familiar, you are not familiar. How can it be difficult to say something in one sentence? As soon as Xiao Chu's words fell, the cold prayer in that place was already smiling, and the smile was obviously dispersed, but those eyes were not half smiling, but they were a lot more solemn. It was these eyes that were directly cold and penetrated into the bones like the cold of the moon, making Xiao Chu tremble uncontrollably.

The breath was glued again, and even the exhalation was so slow that it was inaudible, and it was like this that the shallow breath that was exhaled recovered from the uneasiness in his heart due to cold anxiety, Xiao Chu continued to look as usual, and said with a smile.

"It's the little woman's inappropriate words, and I hope the prince is not to blame!"

After saying that, he got up and bowed, and the etiquette was behind, Xiao Chuxuan said.

"King Xiaoyao, if you want to say that you are not familiar with the little girl, but the friendship of nodding is only a shallow friendship. can be the fourth brother of the little girl, but he is a familiar person, when he got acquainted with each other, the king of Xiaoyao and the fourth brother of the little woman were very happy, and they became friends. It's just that the status of the King of Freedom is noble, how can it be acquainted with the Xiao family, a merchant who is looking for a common businessman. Fortunately, King Xiaoyao can afford it, and he knows my fourth brother and becomes a friend, and that is only a matter of my fourth brother, and the rest of the Xiao family really dare not trade this layer of involvement. That's why the little woman just said, it's hard to say whether it's ripe or not. ”

Xiao Chu's words are transparent, the four young people of the Xiao family and the King of Xiaoyao are indeed friends, but the four young people of the Xiao family who have a lot of friends with the King of Xiaoyao are only the four young people of the Xiao family. As for the side, it is her Xiao Chusu, the head of the Xiao family, and the free prince is only a nodding friend, which can be regarded as a shallow acquaintance.

Xiao Fu and King Xiaoyao are not close to each other, and this is exactly what Xiao Chusu wants to know through and Han. It's just that the meaning of her words is very clear, but it is difficult to know whether Han Qi believes it or not.

When he spoke, one side was smiling, and the other party was soft and elegant, but the atmosphere was so condensed that people were breathtaking. These two people, one is not good, and every word is judged. The other is the clear expression of words, and the meaning of words and words.

Both of them are wise and cunning masters, and they are also vigilant and thoughtful people.

In the face of the Hongmen banquet set up by the prince this time, Xiao Chushu's heart has never been safe since he received the invitation. Especially after entering the Datong Temple, in the face of this firmly sitting on the throne of the prince, it is very likely to become the hegemon of the dictatorship in the future, and every sentence is thoughtful, and every word is vigilant.

The battle for the throne of the royal family has never been lacking since ancient times, even if he has never seen this kind of thing in person, Xiao Chusu has heard a lot. She was originally a merchant, but she really didn't want to let others misunderstand something, solve something, and finally attract something for herself because she got a little closer to a certain prince.

Therefore, this time, Xiao Chuxuan also deliberately picked out his words half-clearly. signaled that she was a businessman, and she just wanted to do the things at hand and expand her business steadily, as for the side.

Don't want to be involved with his family, the Xiao family has no thoughts, and they are categorically unwilling to be involved in such thoughts.

Xiao Chusu is a woman who can be compared to ordinary women, and such a statement may have been heard in Kyoto. What kind of identity is Han Qi, how can the matter of Kyoto business tyrants not be heard, for Xiao Chusu, Han Qi knows far more than Xiao Chusu. Therefore, Xiao Chusu can understand the deep meaning of his words, and Han Qi will naturally not be surprised, that is, Xiao Chusu has repeatedly expressed that he has no close relationship with King Xiaoyao in his words.

People are cunning and suspicious by nature, and Han Qi is a suspicious and hypocritical person. Therefore, although Xiao Chuxuan always felt that he had a pair of eyes that could penetrate people's hearts, this time, it was difficult to see more hidden meanings in the eyes of Han Qi than killing.

Her words, does the prince have any understanding?

Believe or not believe.

None of them are missing.

Her words were clear, but Wen Duan's words, which were pretended to be pretended, were not answered. But the sudden silence without warning, the sinking voice, and the passing meaning in his eyes were like a boulder pressing on his heart, which made people very uneasy.

Silence, but unwilling to provoke, this kind of silence is a kind of pressure on the momentum. It is also a loss to Xiao Chusu, who can still maintain the color of Tai in the face of a person like Han Qi, but he does not show a panicked state.

Since Han Qi refused to show too much and wanted to sit and watch everything like a steady chess player, then Xiao Chusu was gentle and silent, so he treated each other silently to see who couldn't sit still for a moment first.

If you want to talk about patience, Xiao Chusu has always been an expert in the competition, and Han Qi is also used to it. It's just that this time, the confrontation was broken by the prince first. This heart has just sunk, and it has already been decided that this matter will be difficult to deal with, and Xiao Chusu, who has to mention a lot of thoughts, saw the prince's wrong eyes and retracted his condensation.

The water on the side is just boiling, and the boiling water makes the kettle make a "bell" sound. The swaying lid of the pot, the mist drifted around, and after the fog lingered, Han Qi suddenly looked away at Ning and then looked at the boiling water, and smiled.

"This patronizing chatter, but forgetting the autumn tea in this cup. The first or second flavor of this tea is not the best moment, that is, it has to rush to three or four before it tastes. ”

One moment ago, he was still questioning the relationship between the Xiao family and King Xiaoyao, but the next moment, he smelled the sound of boiling water and directly diverted the topic. The prince had naturally moved the wrong topic, and Xiao Chuxuan didn't agree immediately, just laughed a little. Just watched Han Qi's words fall, reached out and lifted the boiling kettle, and then brewed the autumn tea in the cup, which was already gradually coloring.

The tea used by the royal family on this day is not a vulgar thing, and the first one or two flavors have been faint, but I didn't expect that the water of the third dish has just been boiled and soaked, and the overflowing fragrance of tea is far away from the previous entanglement. Xiang Zhu, who was waiting on the side, couldn't help but show a little delusion, and couldn't help but say softly.

"The fragrance is around the nose, elegant and fragrant, this tea is so wonderful here."

A can't help but sigh is the highest praise for this autumn tea, and immediately the eyes of the cold prayer have moved to the place of the bamboo. The left eyebrow was slightly raised, and Han Qi said.

"It seems that the girl next to Miss Xiao knows tea very well?"

Who is the prince today, how can he just talk to a maid casually, and Xiang Zhu's uncontrollable praise is already offensive to the heavenly family. Immediately hearing Han Qi's words, Xiang Zhu's face changed suddenly, and he had already reprimanded a few words in his heart, Xiang Zhu hurriedly knelt down and bowed, begging the prince not to blame Fang Cai for the transgression.

The Xiao family does not have many masters and servants, and although they are close to Han Ye, Han Ye's temperament will not pay attention to these, so it leads to Xiang Zhu's subconscious forgetfulness.

King Xiaoyao and his young master are not people who care about humility, but the prince in front of him is not such a good person. Therefore, when he realized that he had lost his temper and said everything in vain, Xiang Zhu was already remorseful.

If the prince condemns himself, he will condemn himself. That's what he deserves, but if he implicates the eldest lady and the entire Xiao family because of his momentary aphasia, Xiang Zhu is to blame for his death.

Why Xiang Zhu was suddenly frightened, Xiao Chu's troubled thoughts in his heart were clear. Although in the Xiao family, there is indeed no distinction between master and servant in the Ming and Qing dynasties, but the heavenly family is majestic, who knows if Han Qi will be embarrassed by this matter, and bring the Xiao family a dismount. Therefore, Xiang Zhu had just knelt down to ask for sin, and Xiao Chusu was also busy getting up, and then bowed and said.

"Xiang Zhu didn't mean to cross this humility, and I hope the prince is not strange!"

"No wonder? But in a word, when did Prince Ben say that it was going to be strange, Miss Xiao was like this, but she was very worried. ”

He didn't say anything here, and the two people in front of him were kneeling and kneeling, and the guilty plea was as if he was about to take their lives. Regarding Xiang Zhu's disrespect, Han Qi obviously didn't intend to embarrass Xiang Zhu, but although this word did not mean to embarrass him, it was more difficult to determine than the anger that clearly implicated the guilt.

Since the prince has signaled that he is not interested in this matter, and has said that they should get up, if they continue to knock on the sin like this, it will not violate the prince's will. Therefore, after Han prayed, Xiao Chuxuan and Xiang Zhu could only say their sins again, and then thanked them, and then they both got up.

The body was supported by Xiang Zhu and stood up, and the talent had just stabilized his shape, and Han Qi there actually said with a smile.

"This Xiao family has been taking care of it since Miss Xiao began, and it is said that it is very different from the previous Xiao family, that is, the side family, and there are not one or two places that can be compared. In the past, I only heard about it and hearsay, but now it seems that it is completely different from the other family. ”

The last moment he had just been exempted from the crime of disrespect, and the next moment, he turned the conversation to the Xiao family and the difference between the side. It is clear what the crown prince of the current dynasty wants to say.

Since calling here, when has Xiao Chusu been so tired, although he has just come here, he is indeed tired and tired to support the Xiao family. But after all, the Xiao family has a deep foundation and is still domineering, even if it is tightly entangled, it is not difficult to enter the heavens if you want to stand up steadily. With her wrist, she is in charge of business.

Therefore, in dealing with those business veterans, Xiao Chusu has always been steady. She is the head of the Xiao family, a well-known wealthy businessman in Kyoto, she has capital in hand, and she also has that qualification, she has enough capital to count with others, and she puts on an arrogant cold nature with others.

But now?

The person sitting in front of him is not the rich businessman who deals with him all day, but the prince of the ruling family, the current crown prince.

The world that Xiao Chusu is in now is completely different from the world she was in before. In this world, although money is omnipotent, it is not absolutely omnipotent.

For there is one more thing that is far above money and the law.

That's royalty.

As long as you offend the people of the royal family, Rao is your family wealth, Rao is your hand holding a golden basin, and he also has the ability to take your life with just one sentence.

When you contact the royal family, you have to count, not only do you have to count, but you also have to be careful at all times. Otherwise, it would be a real catastrophe.

Han Qi, the crown prince who is most likely to ascend the throne, is now obviously interested in the Xiao family and the relationship between the Xiao family and King Xiaoyao. It is precisely because of this intention that Xiao Chu is extremely uneasy and afraid that something will happen.
