One hundred and seventy-two. rumor
Qin Nanxi slowly stepped forward and saluted, got up and invited Liu Qi into the hall. She knew very well that Liu Qi came to the door at this time, not to say such a headless and brainless remark.
Liu Qiyao bowed back the salute, and then responded to Qin Nanxi's invitation, followed her guidance without saying a word, and sat down in the guest seat on the left side of the hall.
Seeing that the two of them had settled down, Ah Luo quietly moved out of the dark shadow in the corner and poured tea and water neatly. The men are busy. But those tender and shallow eyes glanced at Liu Qi who was sitting like a stone sculpture from time to time.
Qin Nanxi swept Ah Luo's eyes in the afterglow, and understood the childlike love in her heart, and unconsciously pursed her lips and smiled.
Liu Qi on the other side was suspicious by her smile, and couldn't help but follow her gaze.
However, to Qin Nanxi's surprise, the moment Liu Qi glimpsed A Luo's eyes full of tenderness, his deep and dark eyes instantly condensed like ice, cold and cruel.
Ah Luo seemed to feel his cool eyes, a spring-like soft gaze, in his cold gaze, slowly frost rose mist, and the porcelain pot in his hand was trembling slightly with the eye waves.
Qin Nanxi was secretly surprised, and felt slightly distressed for the gentle and tranquil Aluo.
In the situation, she already knew that Ah Luo's mind and Liu Qi should have been transparent a long time ago. But Liu Qi rejected her mind thousands of miles away, but she saw it for the first time. And his cold and cold gaze, the corners of his lips slightly angry, and Ah Luo's sad and desperate eyes clearly show that the current master-servant relationship and the distance that can never be approached are actually secrets that the two of them know well.
"Miss, please have tea!" Ah Luo bit the corner of her lip, barely holding back her tears, and held a small honey-colored fine porcelain teacup in front of Qin Nanxi, interrupting her concentration in staring at her.
Looking at Ah Luo's reddened eyes distressedly, Qin Nan hurriedly reached out to take the small cup, turned around and took away Liu Qidao's gaze on Ah Luo and said, "This is the tea sent by Prince Changping the day before yesterday, Mr. taste it." ”
Liu Qi came back to his senses when he heard this, quickly lowered his eyes and looked at the porcelain cup in front of him. I saw that in the honey-colored porcelain cup, the tea soup was green, and the broken jade swirled lightly. The thick tea mist swirled, and his voice was soaked with a wet breath: "Prince Changping is really as delicate as silk!" Even the young lady's house has always loved this Dongting Biluochun in his heart", he picked up the small lamp, took a sip lightly, and continued with a smile: "The young lady is trapped in the panicked city, and there is also the interest to taste this hidden green and fresh, quiet and mellow Biluochun, it is really not in vain, and there is really a real celebrity and demeanor." ”
Qin Nanxi was slightly stunned when she heard this, and she had already felt his hostility since he suddenly came to the door. Although she knew that Liu Qi had always been dissatisfied and disdainful of her father, he had repeatedly helped her, and he was Situ Yi's confidant. Therefore, Qin Nanxi was not really annoyed with him. But according to her nature, she couldn't swallow this semantically ridiculous sarcasm.
Lowering his eyes for a moment, he raised his lamp and took a sip of tea soup, Qin Nanxi raised his eyes and stared at Liu Qi, and replied softly and slowly: "After only taking a sip, it is known that it is the new blood of Dongting, which shows that Mr. is also of excellent taste and elegant and extraordinary." ”
Liu Qi stiffened slightly when he heard the words, smiled lightly, and then pursed his thin lips deeply, and forcibly said the sentence that almost rushed out, "You girl, you still have such a temperament that doesn't give in and doesn't lose at all!" Pressed back to the bottom of his dark heart.
Looking at the corners of Liu Qi's lips that suddenly smiled, Qin Nan was like falling clouds. Liu Qi, sometimes far and sometimes near, sometimes generous and benevolent, sometimes mean and indifferent.......
Liu Qi took another sip of tea and put down the teacup with his hand, as if what had just happened had never happened, Yun Danfeng chuckled: "It's Liu Qi who is abrupt!" Miss, forgive me. ”
Qin Nanxi was helpless, glanced at Ah Luo who lowered his eyebrows in the corner, and had to respond: "Since Mr. Fang has sent Ah Luo to report the news, and he has worked tirelessly to come to the door in person, there must be something important to explain?" ”
Liu Qi didn't pay attention to Ah Luo at all, nodded and said: "I can't say it's an explanation, it's just that there is a lot of new news in the two capitals, some of which are closely related to Miss and Mu Yun, and Liu Qi is here to report." ”
Liu Qiyu's body did not fall, Qin Nanxi's shoulders and back were already stiff, clasping his hands hanging on his knees, and he also fought slightly, and his heart, which had only been relaxed, hung in his throat again.
Glancing at Qin Nanxi's pale face, Liu Qi said a little stupidly: "Miss, you don't need to worry about this!" Ling Zun and Brother Zun are all safe, and Mu Yun has also triumphantly graduated from the class, and is now on his way back. What Liu Qi said is only in the future. These things, Miss Fushang and Mu Yun have been deeply involved, and based on the current situation, it is speculated that in the future, these things will also be closely related to everyone. It doesn't hurt that Miss knew earlier. ”
Qin Nanxi's mind rose and fell with Liu Qi's light words, and as soon as his words fell, she almost blurted out: "Deeply involved?" What the gentleman said was ......." but halfway through the sentence, he swallowed back half of the sentence and changed it to "What did the gentleman say?" ”
Even in front of Liu Qi, she didn't dare to rashly say the kind of speculation she had about her father's and brother's behavior. After all, those were just her guesses, and besides, the stakes were so high, she didn't dare to say anything rashly.
Liu Qi's dark eyes turned to Qin Nanxi, and his voice was full of meaning: "It's some people's feelings." Recently, rumors suddenly spread between the two capitals, saying that it was Xiangyun, the Son of Heaven in the Northwest, who was the emperor who showed the subjects of Great Chu, and the true Son of Heaven of Great Chu was not the one who sat in the Golden Palace, but was bearing the mandate of heaven, lying in danger at the border of the country, and caring for the country and people's livelihood. ”
Liu Qi said while coldly examining Qin Nanxi's face, and seeing that she had no intention of interjecting except for a disdainful smile on her lips, she continued: "The day before yesterday, there was news that the citizens of Luoyang, who had only retreated from the enemy soldiers for a few days, actually fished out a strange stone from Luoshui. ”
"Strange stones?" Qin Nanxi smiled even deeper, she had read too much about this kind of Rui Zhao prophecy since she was a child, and even she herself had deliberately made it up. Of course she knew what was behind those signs. She just didn't know why Liu Qi was talking to her about this.
"Yes, a strange stone. Three feet long, three feet wide, three feet high, the whole body is snow-white and flawless, the quality is as hard as iron, soft and moist like jade. ”
"Sure enough, it's a strange stone." Qin Nanxi had already put away her worries, took a sip of tea with a smile, and gossiped calmly.
"What's even more strange is that there are a few lines of heavenly books engraved on the white stone. The farmer who fished out the strange stone could not recognize it, and took it to the village to identify it, but no one recognized it. That's it, one to ten, ten to hundred. The strange stone was spread to both sides of the Luoshui overnight. The chief didn't dare to be contemptuous anymore, so he sent the strange stone to the famous Confucian Cheng Fusheng in the Eastern Capital, and the result was ......" Liu Qi said this, the corners of his lips were slanted, and his disdainful gaze fell on Qin Nanxi's eyes like two sharp needles intended to break through the lie.
Luoyang famous Confucian Cheng Fusheng, who is his father Qin Zi'an's friend for many years, Qin Nanxi understood what Liu Qi meant when he said this, and also understood the deep meaning in his provocative gaze, but pretended not to know and asked with a smile: "What is the result?" ”
Liu Qidao: "As a result, Mr. Cheng really recognized the pattern on the stone, saying that the pattern was not carved by man, but was naturally generated. ”
Qin Nanxi smiled faintly: "Oh? Born by nature, it is indeed a miracle, a strange stone! That Uncle Cheng is a generation of Confucians, who knows everything about astronomy and geography, and a few strange words should be difficult for his old man, I don't know how many words Uncle Cheng can recognize? I don't know what these words say? ”
Liu Qi saw that Qin Nanxi not only shirked it, but recognized the fact that Cheng Fusheng and Qin Zi'an were world friends. couldn't help but sigh at her stubbornness in her heart, and laughed: "Miss is so smart, that Mr. Cheng and Ling Zun have the same respect, and they are naturally extraordinary." He recognized that the pattern on the stone was an ancient inscription, and the words shown were vaguely recognizable: 'The country is in danger, the sage is out, the culture is in order, and it is long and peaceful!' A few words. ”
"The country is in danger, the sage is out, the civil rule is safe, and it is long and peaceful!" Qin Nanxi muttered again at the bottom of her lips, and the bottom of her lips couldn't help but repeat the word "Changping" again.
Liu Qi looked at her carefully and said nothing.
After being silent for a long time, Qin Nanxi raised his head and looked at Liu Qi calmly: "Mr. Fang Cai said that this is to inform Nanxi that his father and brother Yi are deeply involved in it. But Mr. mentioned folk rumors, I don't know what good it would be for Nan Xi to know about this earlier? ”
Liu Qi sneered: "Rumors? Miss doesn't know that although the folk ballad is small, it can shake the world? Thinking about the first emperor Qindi, there is the Great Wall of thousands of miles to hold, which can be described as solid. However, the two wrong-timed offenders, with the phrase 'Da Chu Xing, King Chen Sheng', caused the first emperor's lifelong career to collapse overnight. Liu Han Weiyi, filial piety and martial arts, expelled the Huns for thousands of miles, and Biao Gong was far away from the wolf Juxu, which can be described as the national prestige spread far and wide, and the four seas worshipped. However, a few pawns made up the sentence 'Cangtian is dead, Huang Tian should stand' to make Cangtian change his surname. Such rumors are powerful enough to shake the heavens and the earth. I want to make the long-sleeved good dance, sink behind the scenes, strategize, and finally keep this day! However, has the young lady ever thought about what will happen to Mu Yun living in it? ”
