Chapter 66: The Thief Shouts to Catch the Thief
On the other hand, His Royal Highness Longying, when people look at themselves, they are all looking at the excitement and not thinking it is a big deal.
"Princess-to-be, you can eat more." Among them, there was a subordinate who couldn't look at his face, and suddenly said this.
Smack-
A loud slap hit the subordinate who was talking nonsense. It was Min'er who beat people, and even Qin Kexin was taken aback.
"Who would allow you to talk about all this and get out of here?" likes Xiao Shujun's mercy, but naturally he can't hear anyone say this.
Min'er is Xiao Shujun's personal maid, and everyone is afraid of her, even if she is beaten, she can only retreat in disgrace, not daring to complain.
"They don't know, you don't have to react so aggressively." Qin Kexin naturally knew why Min'er was so angry.
"I taught the talkative subordinates of Longying Hall a lesson, and it is not the turn of an outsider to take care of Steward Qin." There was a thorn in her words.
Qin Kexin didn't eat much for breakfast.
Qin Kexin thought that her health was almost better, and it was time to go back to the Clothing Bureau, so she proposed to Xiao Shujun.
"That's not good, the shield is not there, how do you tell me to resist the enemy's arrows?" Xiao Shujun said half-seriously and half-jokingly.
"Shield?" Qin Kexin is unknown.
"Recently, there are many young ladies from big families who want to be princesses of Qin, and this king doesn't make a show with you, how can they give up?"
So that's the case, Xiao Shujun, who has been inseparable from himself even when he sleeps these days, actually uses himself as a shield. Qin Kexin really wanted to slap the guy in front of him, but for the sake of Xiao Shujun saving him twice, Qin Kexin endured it.
Knowing the real reason for being inseparable, Qin Kexin was a little disappointed. Is it really just a shield?
"And when can I go back?" Qin Kexin seemed to be angry.
Seeing that Qin Kexin seemed unhappy, Xiao Shujun thought that he was angry that he was using her as a shield, so he was so frightened that Xiao Shujun hurriedly said: "You can go back whenever you want." I don't need you to be a shield. ”
However, when he heard this, Qin Kexin's ears changed, this is crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, he helped him block the arrow, and now he sees that he is useless, and he wishes to leave quickly.
"Hmph." The more I thought about it, the more angry I became, so I simply left the Longying Hall and returned to the Clothes Bureau, which was still freer.
Xiao Shujun saw that he had annoyed Qin Kexin, so he didn't dare to catch up rashly, and hurriedly thought of a way to remedy it.
Qin Kexin immediately packed her luggage and went back to the clothing bureau.
Seeing Qin Kexin return to the Siyi Bureau, the happiest person was Min'er. Finally, there is no need to see Qin Kexin and Xiao Shujun glued together all day long, and he is secretly tormented.
"Min'er, this king seems to have made Qin Zhangshi angry, you women know women's minds best, what gift do you want to buy for her to be happy?" Min'er happened to come to the study to deliver pastries to Xiao Shujun.
It's really ghostly, and Min Er is helpless, Xiao Shujun actually poured salt on his wounds in person.
"Women love beauty, and she will definitely like a hairpin." Min'er herself has always wanted a delicate hairpin, so she blurted out. But after saying it, I regretted it, because I realized that it was the person I liked who gave a gift to my rival, but I said what I wanted.
"To thank you for your advice to the king. This king will also reward you with one. ”
Min'er had already walked to the door of the study, and Xiao Shujun saw her loss. After all, she is half her sister, and Xiao Shujun can't bear it.
"His Royal Highness King Xie Qin." In this way, she couldn't be happier to get what she dreamed of.
Xiao Shujun personally went to the shop on the street and carefully selected two exquisite hairpins, and was made fun of by Xiao Shuwei.
"Help me go to the Clothing Bureau and give this pink hairpin to Steward Qin, she likes pink. This red one is yours. Xiao Shujun handed Min'er two similar hairpins. I was afraid that Qin Kexin would still be angry with her, and she was kicked out as soon as she went to the Clothing Bureau, so she could only send Min'er forward.
But he obviously likes pink, and after so many years, Xiao Shujun never knew it. Also, I'm just a subordinate, and it doesn't matter what I like.
"These two hairpins are as valuable, don't say that this king is eccentric." Xiao Shujun saw Min'er staring at the two hairpins for a long time, and thought that he had misunderstood that he was treated differently.
Min'er naturally knew that His Highness laughed. I'll go to the Clothing Bureau to give the hairpin to Steward Qin. Once again, she hid her true thoughts.
When Min'er gave the hairpin, she deliberately put her red hairpin on her head first.
"His Royal Highness King Qin said that this is a gift to apologize to you." Min'er handed the hairpin to Qin Kexin.
Qin Kexin took it, it was indeed a beautiful hairpin. The pink peach blossoms are lifelike, and the branches and leaves are also beautifully curved.
"By the way, His Royal Highness King Qin also said that you are as cute as a peach blossom. Said that I, like a plum blossom to the bitter cold and blooming, beautiful and refined, gave me this red plum blossom hairpin. After that, he shook his head so that Qin Kexin could see the hairpin on his head clearly.
As soon as I heard these two evaluations, the plum blossom one was better, but Qin Kexin didn't know that these were all made up by Min'er. What's more, since it is an apology gift, he didn't give it in person, and it was so insincere to send two people at the same time, Qin Kexin naturally didn't appreciate it.
"Take it back, I have a lot of hairpins, I don't need them." Qin Kexin stuffed the hairpin back into Min'er's hand. At this time, Qin Kexin didn't realize that he was actually jealous.
Seeing that her plan succeeded, Min'er was naturally happy, and returned to Longying Hall with a pink hairpin.
"Don't accept it?" Seeing the returned hairpin, Xiao Shujun just thought that Qin Kexin hadn't forgiven himself yet, and he didn't suspect that Min'er had done anything wrong, nor did he realize that his method of giving gifts was wrong.
"Miss Qin said that this hairpin is too valuable, and she can't afford it." Min'er deliberately provoked, she had been by Xiao Shujun's side for so many years, so naturally Xiao Shujun was more likely to get angry.
I can't stand it, this is obviously angry with myself. Although Xiao Shujun was angry with Qin Kexin's attitude, after all, he was wrong first. still wanted to coax Qin Kexin well.
"Your Highness, it's the queen's birthday banquet in a few days, do you want to make some preparations in advance?"
On the day of the queen's birthday banquet, the royal relatives and princes and ministers will be invited to attend.
"You go and prepare."
A very important reason why Min'er can be reused by Xiao Shujun is that she is thoughtful, and she can easily do things like preparing gifts for the queen.
In previous years, the birthday banquet gifts of the queen mother and various concubines were all prepared by Min'er for Xiao Shujun, and in the matter of preparing gifts, Min'er was already handy.
But this time, it seems that Min'er doesn't want to prepare some old-fashioned gifts as usual, she wants to take advantage of this opportunity to make a big fuss.
On the day of the queen's birthday banquet, Qin Kexin didn't want to come to this kind of banquet where she could meet many 'old acquaintances'. But as the head of the Clothing Bureau, he had to come to send congratulatory gifts to the queen on behalf of the Clothing Bureau.
"Qin Kexin!"
Seeing Xiao Shujun coming towards him, Qin Kexin, who was still sulking, subconsciously turned his head and wanted to slip away.
"Let go of me."
However, he was a step slower, and he was not as long as Xiao Shujun's legs, so he was still dragged by Xiao Shujun's arm who rushed up.
It was not easy to catch it, how could Xiao Shujun let it go easily.
"Why are you so angry?"
Qin Kexin was silent, thinking, just using herself as a shield, how could she not be angry? I also bought two copies of the apology gift, I don't know if it was a tendon or deliberate.
Seeing that Qin Kexin's attitude towards him was as cold as at the beginning, Xiao Shujun was a little flustered, and hurriedly said: "It's really wrong for this king to use you as a shield, but this king does think so in his heart." You are the princess of this king. ”
Seeing that Xiao Shujun said it so bluntly, Qin Kexin was stunned in place without knowing what he was mistaken. Isn't this the explanation he wants, but in order not to let Xiao Shujun see his careful thoughts, Qin Kexin pretended to be calm and pretended to be angry.
"Okay, this king knows that you don't like the hairpin a few days ago, so I went to buy this for you again, see if you like it?" Xiao Shujun took out a bracelet from his arms, simple and designed, hundreds of times better than the hairpin he gave that day.
"Reluctantly take it." Qin Kexin saw Xiao Shujun give him a step, and hurriedly came down.
"Have you forgiven the king?" Xiao Shujun was overjoyed, it can be regarded as Qin Kexin's coaxing.
"For the sake of such a beautiful bracelet, I'll forgive you for the time being, but is there only one bracelet?" Qin Kexin didn't want this to be another gift that had been prepared twice.
Hearing Qin Kexin say this, Xiao Shujun knew that Qin Kexin was talking about Min'er's hairpin, and couldn't help laughing: "What? Jealous before? ”
Qin Kexin seemed to have been pierced again, and she was embarrassed, so she had to prevaricate and run away.
Xiao Shujun was left looking at Qin Kexin's panicked back meaningfully, and the corners of his mouth rose unconsciously.
Min'er watched all this from the corner, looked at the bracelet on Qin Kexin's hand, and threw the pink hairpin that day on the ground and stepped on the dirt.
"Kexin." Su Lianrong, as the daughter of Prime Minister Zuo, naturally came to attend the queen's birthday banquet, and saw Qin Kexin trembling and stopping her.
Qin Kexin didn't want to pay attention to this person who betrayed him, but Su Lianrong seemed unwilling.
"When I went to the prince's gift to the Prime Minister's Mansion, when I saw that Min'er also went to give the congratulatory gift prepared by King Qin, I secretly replaced the gift in the box that said "The Clothing Bureau." Su Lianrong didn't want Qin Kexin to be hurt again, so she hurried to find Qin Kexin after finding out.
"What?" Could it be that Min'er is doing some small action to embarrass herself in public?
The birthday banquet will start immediately, and then the prince's guild will display the gifts one by one in front of everyone, and now it is too late to exchange them back, and no one will believe them to expose the sympathy, so they can only adapt to the situation at that time.
"Thanks, you don't care." Qin Kexin did not doubt the truth of what Su Lianrong said, she knew that Su Lianrong could not harm herself again. Saying that she doesn't want her to care doesn't want her to be involved in unwarranted disasters.
Su Lianrong was unkind before, and Qin Kexin couldn't be unjust.
