Chapter 63: Shock

After such a small episode where some people were happy and some people were worried, the group finally arrived at the gate of Xianghai Palace.

The gloomy inner courtyard of the palace only showed a bit of popularity until this time.

You look at the bright lights in the palace, what glass lamps, marquee lanterns, brocade palace lights, that is to walk into the courtyard, change a lantern, Cui Liang, the first time to enter the palace, are dizzy, I don't know where I am.

Although it was night, there were still a lot of palace maids and eunuchs along the way, all of them were very well-behaved, their eyes did not squint, and the etiquette was thorough, Cui Liang couldn't remember how many gifts his master had received, and he couldn't count how many times he had done.

I only felt that the palace walls were heavy, and the verandah seemed to have no momentum, and it took seven or eight turns to reach Qi Xuanhui's bedroom.

There was already a little eunuch waiting at the gate of the palace, and he told Huang Ming with a stammering expression, and the prince of the county was waiting for Cui Sangongzi in the west hall.

When I was young, a group of people stepped into the gate of the west side hall, and saw that in the middle of the main hall, there was a white jade high platform, on which was placed the dragon pattern Arhat bed of the red sandalwood mother, and the best whole tiger skin mattress was placed on it, and the huge tiger head hung down on the white jade steps, staring at people coldly.

Cui Liang was panicked by this dead thing, and thought to himself, he is so shocking when he is dead, and if he doesn't roar when he is alive, will he scare people's liver and gallbladder?

At this time, in the main hall, although there were many palace maids and the candles were bright, the master's house was nowhere to be seen.

Huang Ming turned his head to Cui Changjian, smiled and said 'please', and took him into the west room on the right.

The west room is about half the size of the outer hall, leaning against the large red carved window on the south side, a very wide kang is coiled, and against the north wall, there are eight official hat chairs. Covered with a bright yellow crane Ganoderma lucidum chair cover, it is clean and tidy, simple and neat.

On the west side, there is a pillar of purple nanmu incense flat head case, and there are three things on the case, burning the elegant Su and new incense. Cigarette smoke wafts up, and the scent lingers in the large space.

Qi Xuanhui was sitting on the kang, his eyes seemed to be looking at the two high planes at the end of the kang. but he saw that it was a few highs. On one side there is a pot of 'marigold silver table', and in the blue porcelain vase on the other side, there are a few red plums that have just been folded off.

On the kang table in front of the prince of the county. There is a table full of dishes, the hot dishes are obviously still steaming, and there is a small lacquer tea tray on the small table of purple nan wood next to it. There is a complete set of Longquan kiln teacup tea stove inside, and the best tea has been brewed. It's just waiting for someone to enjoy it.

Qi Xuanhui looked at the two masters and servants who paid a big salute, waved his hand and asked Cui Changjian to get up and sit opposite him, but he let Cui Liang kneel and ignore it, but he swept half of his eyes from time to time. Secretly observe Cui Liang's actions.

Cui Liang knelt on the bright gold water floor that could be used as a mirror, and everything around him was made of gold carvings and jade, and everything was rare. But he could only kneel with his forehead touching the ground, and the prince of the county did not shout. Where did he dare to act rashly?

As time slipped by, Cui Liang's heart became more and more uneasy, it seemed that he didn't have to kneel for so long when he saw the nobleman saluting, right?

I really don't know what this county king means? Thinking of himself as an ant, and a dragon on the high, there is no way to have any intersection at all, and he gave such a big dismount at the first time, so why did he come?

He couldn't help but muster up the courage to swallow the sky, and quickly glanced at the prince of the county who was half-crooked on the kang, but he was fierce and faced a pair of extremely beautiful eyes, slender but a little sharp uplift, with a hint of scrutiny in the cold, Cui Liang's whole body was soft, and he was directly paralyzed.

Seeing this, Qi Xuanhui smiled lazily, sat up straight, shrunk on the backrest pillow behind him, and looked at Cui Changjian, who was drinking tea, and said, "It's a clever one, but don't be too indulgent, it's easy to change if you think too much, I think he was also trained by you as a child, and it's a pity to die." ”

Cui Changjian smiled lightly and glanced at Cui Liang on the ground, and said lightly: "You also said that you are playing small, but this love for growing up since childhood, I think he also knows what he should do and what he should not do." After speaking, with a hint of coldness in his tone, he asked, "Are you right?" Cui Liang?

Cui Liang was so frightened by the two of them singing and harmonizing that he finally smoothed out his tongue, trembled his lips and said: "The slave doesn't dare, the slave understands"

Cui Changjian knew that Qi Xuanhui suddenly let Cui Liang enter the palace, and he beat Cui Liang openly and secretly like this, not because he was idle and wanted to teach him a slave.

Most of them want to use this kid to do some private things, and before using people, it is indispensable to bluff first, which is also a kind of psychological deterrent.

Cui Changjian didn't show displeasure at all, he drank the teacup, picked up the chopsticks and ate, this steaming supper is still the craftsmanship of the imperial chef in the palace, don't eat for nothing.

Qi Xuanhui looked at Cui Changjian's relaxation, but he felt a little warm, there are only a few people who can only show their true temperament in front of him, plus this person's identity is special, and he loves the house and Wuxia, and he is much closer.

He didn't disturb Cui Changjian to enjoy the food, he just picked up a box on the pillow, opened it and took out the same white jade bottle, flickered along the candle flame, and called slowly: "Cui Liang, come here." ”

Cui Liang was shocked by Qi Xuanhui's domineering spirit, and the three souls were gone, and he couldn't get up with soft legs and feet anyway, so he simply climbed to Qi Xuanhui's side with both hands and feet, and said in a whisper: "The slave is here." ”

Qi Xuanhui played with the small object in his hand, his eyes flashed with endless tenderness, and he commanded lightly: "The king of this county wants you to help with an errand tonight." ”

As he spoke, he shook his left hand casually, and saw Fan Yang hunched his waist, holding a peony-like tray inlaid with purple nan wood and gemstones, and walked to Qi Xuanhui's side in a few steps.

Qi Xuanhui's eyes flashed slightly, and he nodded lightly, and his own little eunuch took off the big red brocade cloth on the tray, revealing ten silver ingots neatly inside.

"Look at it, as long as you complete this errand, these ten silver ingots will reward you boy, but if the errand is smashed, the king of this county has an iron mine in the north, and it is the lack of absenteeism, you and your family will be prepared to live there for the rest of your life!" What he said was that there were clear rewards and punishments, but it almost scared Cui Liang's half of his life.

Cui Liang: Where would he dare to ask for silver? I just hope to take the errand, finish it quickly, escape a life, and protect my whole family is the most important thing.

Therefore, he didn't look at the tray, and kowtowed again and again: "The slave is my son's little servant, as long as you and the son tell me, the slave will do it with his life, and he doesn't dare to be greedy for money." ”

Qi Xuanhui narrowed his eyes, looked at Cui Changjian and smiled, as if he had a little approval. (To be continued) R580
