Chapter 322: The crisis is over
After Qi Jingyu came to King Jin's mansion, he found that Qi Jingyun and Qiao Mingyue had already prepared wine and food waiting for him.
"Hehe, the sixteenth brother is here, sit down quickly." Qiao Mingyue's unusually enthusiastic enthusiasm actually made Qi Jingyu a little overwhelmed.
He thought to himself, why wasn't he soft at all when he hurt me, and now he pretends to be something. So Qi Jingyu walked over Qiao Mingyue with a "hum" and didn't look at her.
Qiao Mingyue was petrified on the spot, damn! The little bunny dared to ignore her! See if she doesn't screw his dog's head off. Thinking of this, Qiao Mingyue took a deep breath, can't be impulsive, can't be impulsive, you have to get along well.
Qi Jingyun saw her anger, stepped forward to follow Qi Jingyu, put one arm on his shoulder, and said, "Sixteenth brother, third brother, we haven't met a few times after I came back for so long, you have to have a drink with me today." Qi Jingyun used a little force when he took his arm, and Qi Jingyu didn't notice that he was pushed by him for a while.
"You!" Qi Jingyu turned his head and stared at Qi Jingyun viciously.
Qi Jingyun immediately made an innocent appearance and said, "Oh, I'm really embarrassed, the third brother is usually reckless, some of them are not light or heavy, and the sixteenth brother should not be blamed." ”
Qi Jingyu smiled "hehe", I believe you are a ghost! But he didn't say anything, and continued to walk inside.
Qi Jingyun put his arm around Qi Jingyu's shoulder again, but this time he didn't stumble, just walking, and suddenly turned his head and winked at Qiao Mingyue, Qiao Mingyue smiled and followed them.
The meals prepared by Qiao Mingyue were very sumptuous, and she specially asked the cook to make some dishes from Yungui and Youzhou, Qi Jingyu grew up in the capital since he was a child, and he definitely didn't have many opportunities to taste these local cuisines, maybe the delicious local dishes were more like Qi Jingyu!
Sure enough, after Qi Jingyu ate a few dishes, his eyes lit up.
"What are these dishes of the third sister-in-law, why have I never eaten them?"
Qiao Mingyue secretly compared "yes", and said with a smile: "The sixteenth brother just ate the local food of Yungui, I thought that the sixteenth brother might like it, so I took it upon myself to prepare some, as long as the sixteenth brother thinks it is good." ”
Qi Jingyu eats very elegantly, but the speed is not slow, during which Qi Jingyun also poured him a few glasses of wine from time to time, and a table of dishes was almost eaten by him after a while.
This Qi Jingyu is still a foodie, Qiao Mingyue secretly thought, then this will be easy to do.
"If the sixteenth brother likes it, he can let the cook of King Jin's Mansion go to the sixteenth brother's mansion to live for a few days." Qiao Mingyue used chopsticks to clip a piece of fish meat to Qi Jingyu and said.
Qi Jingyu was thinking about how to get the cook over, when he heard Qiao Mingyue say this. His eyes lit up suddenly, he had never felt that Qiao Mingyue was so pleasing to the eye.
Although he only lived for a few days, Qi Jingyu's mansion had a cook he had hired with a lot of money before, and it was not a problem to learn a cuisine in just a few days.
As for why Qiao Mingyue didn't give the cook to Qi Jingyu directly, Qiao Mingyue said that she was reluctant! This cook was met in Yungui, she and Chi Lianyi both love food, so they accidentally found this cook in the search for food and brought him back, from then on, Qiao Mingyue had to take him wherever he went, after all, people can't treat their stomachs badly at any time.
After learning that Qiao Mingyue had studied food, Qi Jingyu's hostility towards her dissipated a lot, and after a pot of wine, Qi Jingyu was slightly drunk, but his consciousness was quite sober. After some communication, he found that Qiao Mingyue was also a cheerful person, and he was still puzzled when she had been against him.
"Third sister-in-law, there is something I want to ask you, don't lie to me." Qi Jingyu stared at Qiao Mingyue.
Qiao Mingyue chewed the food in her mouth and said "um" casually.
Qi Jingyu thought for a while and said, "I should never offend you, why do you always have trouble with me?" ”
Qiao Mingyue didn't expect him to ask this, she was stunned for a moment, slowly swallowed the food in her mouth, and said, "It's actually very simple," Qiao Mingyue raised a finger, "It's to gain the emperor's trust and make life a little better." ”
“?” Qi Jingyu was stunned, he didn't expect Qiao Mingyue to be so honest.
Qi Jingyun also drank a lot, but not to the point of being unconscious, hearing Qiao Mingyue's words, he subconsciously continued: "That's right, he has been unable to get along with me since he was the crown prince before, afraid that I will rob him of the throne, God knows that I have no interest in that seat at all." Qi Jingyun shook his head, "I thought that he would always be able to settle down when he became the emperor, but I didn't expect to see me so unpleasant." Do you think his heart is only a grain of rice, why can't he see us brothers? ”
Qi Jingyu nodded with feeling, "Yes!" Why can't he tolerate us? ”
As he was talking, Qi Jingyun suddenly said, "Sixteenth brother, there is something I have to tell you today." ”
Qi Jingyu thought that he said in the letter that there was something important to discuss, and this was probably the case.
So he put down his wine glass, made a gesture, and said, "Third brother, please speak." ”
Qi Jingyun said: "The emperor is very tolerant of all the brothers on the surface, but in fact, he has been secretly monitoring us, and the sixteenth brother, you and the third brother, I are the people he fears the most. ”
Qi Jingyu nodded, he knew this.
Qi Jingyun continued: "Not long after, the envoys of Nanzhao will come to the capital, and the sixteenth brother will not know the news. ”
Qi Jingyu was a little impatient, and he also knew this.
"This time Nanzhao sent envoys to negotiate peace, the situation in the Great Zhou has just stabilized, the emperor will definitely agree to Nanzhao's request to select a person from the court as a proton to go to Nanzhao, the sixteenth brother might as well guess who this person is most likely to be?"
Qi Jingyu thought for a while, and suddenly his eyes widened, of course the emperor would not let them be protons, so protons would only be produced among their brothers, and the most unpopular among the brothers were him and Qi Jingyun, that is to say......
Proton will be one of him or Qi Jingyun!
Qi Jingyun saw that he had already figured it out, so
said: "The sixteenth brother is a person who understands, I believe you should know that now you and my brother are people in the same boat, as for the place of Nanzhao, the sixteenth brother doesn't want to go!" ”
Qi Jingyu thought to himself, how could he be willing to go? He is a dignified prince of a country and goes to a small country to be a proton, and he is not afraid of being laughed to death!
Before I knew it, it was already late at night, and the killer arranged by Qi Jingyu had been waiting for a long time, and it was getting closer and closer to the time they had set in advance. There was a rustling sound in their ears, Qi Jingyun and Qiao Mingyue of course knew what this meant, and the two of them quietly prepared, now it depends on whether Qi Jingyucong is smart or not.
Qi Jingyu heard the voice and knew that the time was almost up, but he had already dispelled the idea of killing Qi Jingyun and Qiao Mingyue. While chatting with the husband and wife, he put his hands behind his back and made a few quick gestures, and soon, the surroundings were quiet again.
Qi Jingyun and Qiao Mingyue also breathed a sigh of relief, the crisis was lifted, otherwise the two of them would not be able to guarantee that they would be out of danger unscathed.
