Chapter Thirty-Eight: Lingji's Idea
Returning to the courtyard, Li Sheng took the lead in walking back to his room without saying a word, Chunliu watched him walk into the room, didn't tease her like before, and hesitated, did he get angry when this joke was too big? Or does he not care about her return to China at all!
She walked back to her room a little lost, picked up the kettle and poured a glass of water and took a sip, falling into deep thought, maybe it was her delusion, Childe was just too responsible, it was rumored that he had a strange personality outside, she got along with him for a few months, and found that he was not ruthless as outsiders said, he would build a shelter for the orphans who were outcast, and he would fight against the evil forces for the injustice that her little maid had encountered! Maybe he would do the same if he were someone else, Chunliu scolded himself secretly: "Chunliu! What the hell are you thinking? If not, you make such a joke, why doesn't he keep you! ”
Wang Zilin saw that Lisheng was back, knocked on his door, Lisheng opened the door and saw that it was her, a little disappointed, and asked expressionlessly: "Zilin, is there something?"
Wang Zilin didn't seem to be very happy when she looked at him, she just wanted to see him, she and her senior brother hadn't talked for a long time, and the older the senior brother grew, the farther and farther away from her, he was no longer a teenager who would accompany her to look at the stars and the moon and study medicine together. She felt a little sad in her heart, and said angrily: "Senior brother, I can't come to you if it's okay!"
Li Sheng looked at her and looked at herself sadly, touched her hair and said: "Where are you saying stupid words, you are my junior sister and naturally your own family, who dares to stop you when you want to come!"
Wang Zilin nodded, her face looked better, she walked to the mahogany carved chair in the room and sat down, pointed to a chair next to her, and said, "Senior brother, sit down and say, just now Mama Li was talking to me again, and asked me where you came back from this trip!" She's always worried about you. ”
"He's an old man, don't tell him, I can still deal with those miscellaneous fish of the Taishoufu family!" Li Sheng sat down in a chair and replied.
"One more thing." As she spoke, she took a box from her cuff and handed it to him.
Li Sheng opened the box, saw the things in the box, and felt a little resistant, he touched the carved pattern on it, as if he could still smell the blood on it, he covered his nose and said unhappily: "What does this mean, it's not that the things in it are no longer used, why did you take it out today!"
Wang Zilin said solemnly: "This thing was originally told to me by my father before his death, and it is guarded by Mama Li, and I will dig it out and hand it over to you as long as you arrive in the imperial capital!" He understands you and knows that you will not use the power above, but in the imperial capital, a place that eats people and does not spit out bones, you must use it! ”
"My mother died because of this thing, and I don't want to have it! I can be safe without it! Presumably, my mother doesn't want me to chase fame and fortune anymore! You go and bury it, if one day, I need it, it must be the point where the city is full of wind and rain, and the country is ruined! Li Sheng closed the box and handed it to Wang Zilin, his cold face was like a thousand years of ice!
In the ready-to-wear shop, Qishang and Lingji have not stood on the same line for many years, today I took this opportunity, Qishang's attitude towards her was a little more relaxed, she picked up the apology letter written to her by the eventful man and put it in her sleeve, and said proudly: "Eventful man, I keep your apology letter, remember not to be too arrogant, sister, I am not easy to bully." Also, the jade pendant on your body is left for me, even if it is evidence of an apology to me! ”
After saying that, she walked to the counter like a big rooster that had won a fight, pointed condescendingly at the shopkeeper and said, "You, go get a pair of scissors." ”
The shopkeeper saw that the little boy in Beihou Mansion was stunned, where could he afford to offend a small flat-headed person, and hurriedly picked up a pair of scissors from the cabinet and handed them over respectfully, and the Qishang sneered: "Shopkeeper, why are you handing me the scissors, you come and cut the clothes in this store for me, I believe that the son's family is rich and will not feel distressed for a few clothes!" will be held accountable for his actions to the end. ”
The shopkeeper smiled bitterly in his heart, there was no way for this young lady to force her to cut clothes, he didn't dare to disobey, but it was a pity that there were so many good clothes, and they were going to be cut by scissors if they didn't wear them once.
Ling Ji looked at Qi Shang's arrogance and persuaded: "Qi Shang go, it's time to go back this time." Don't waste time for a few clothes. ”
Qishang heard Ling Ji call her back, she looked at Zhu Qi and sneered, reached out and tore off the jade pendant on his waist, glanced at him proudly and said: "Troubled man, I'm leaving, even if this matter is over, you have to think about it when you go back!" ”
Zhu Qi gritted his teeth and resisted the urge to smoke her, forget it! The jade pendant was touched by her and gave it to her, and he didn't miss this jade pendant, so as not to dirty his hands! With a black face, he turned to the side, ignoring the arrogant gesture of her victor!
After they got out of the garment shop, Zhu Qi also walked out of the garment shop with a calm face, there are a lot of helplessness in this life, he can only make himself stronger so as not to be choked by the throat, he wrote down this woman today! He will investigate her identity well, and if he has the opportunity, he will teach her a hard lesson and let him know the truth of being a human being!
Xiyu sat in the room of the ambassador's inn, at this time Qishang and Lingji were also sitting here, Qishang pulled his hair, and said to Xiyu: "Brother Shizi, the day after tomorrow is the empress's birthday, I don't know what the empress and Princess Yabu will think of to deal with me, Lu Xin has come to you several times in the past two days, but what is the way to deal with it." ”
Xiyu shook her head and said: "There is a way to deal with it, but it's too inferior, you have already been recognized by them, there is no way but to pretend to be sick or dead, or mess up your reputation, they may dispel this idea, but it is also difficult!" Fame or something in front of power is just an ornament! ”
Ling Ji thought of what happened today and said: "Today, Qishang encountered an incident and quarreled with a prince from my country, I later sent someone to check, his identity is not simply the little son of Beihou Ye, why don't you start from him." ”
When Qishang heard the troubled man, he shook his head and said, "What can he offer?" After that, he picked up a piece of snack and put it in his mouth.
Ling Ji said lightly: "I have heard of Beihou Mansion, and the forces of the princess's mansion are secretly competing, they support the second prince, and the power is becoming stronger and stronger with the support of the second prince, hindering the eyes of the princess of Yabu, at the moment they don't know your identity, and they don't know about the princess's plan, why don't you borrow his hand to avoid the current predicament." ”
Xiyu knocked on the table and asked interestedly, "Have you thought of a countermeasure?" ”
Lingji sighed in her heart, even if she repaid her kindness this time when she helped Qishang, it was inevitable that there would be bloodshed and even death in politics, but the huge interest seduction behind it made countless people jump into the snare willingly! Even the supreme rulers are no exception. If you want to blame them, they will fight well as soon as they come, so that they have no way out!
If Qishang took the initiative to enter the Beihou Mansion, she and Xiyu added a few more fires, believing that the prince of the Beihou Mansion would resist, if they resisted, they would still put the marriage of the Qishang on the head of the little prince of the Beihou Mansion, presumably the second prince would try his best to persuade the Beihou Lord not to offend Yunmengguo! And it worked!
"Qishang, are you willing to temporarily grieve and propose to the son who offended you today to marry him on the empress's birthday, anyway, this is fake, you just say that no matter what the prince thinks of you, you just have to marry her for the concubine, don't you have his jade pendant and letter? Xiyu and I will naturally speak for you. “
Xiyu heard about the letter and the jade pendant, looked at the Qishang with some weirdness, and said: Qishang seems that you are very domineering, and you have brought all the jade pendants from other people! "He heard about today's events, but he didn't expect Qishang to snatch other people's jade pendants, too! She is a well-known county lord in Yunmeng Country who doesn't dare to mess with!
Ling Ji nodded, the arrogant and domineering lord of Yunmeng Country was not boasting at all!
The relationship between Xiyu and Qishang is still very good, after all, they are serious cousins, Xiyu is modest and polite, and the reputation of being known as "humble jade gentleman" is not for nothing! She didn't know what good things Lingji had done in her previous life to be worthy of such a gentle cousin, if it weren't for his cousin's sake, she was on the same front with her today, where would she sit so calmly with her!
She took out the letter from her sleeve, looked at it, and said, "Don't say it, my letter is really almost meaningful, but if it is really forced, it really has that meaning." After reading it, he handed the letter to Yuyu.
Xiyu took the letter from her hand, put it on the table after reading it, and said, "Well, it's still a bit far-fetched, anyway, just have this letter." ”
Qishang nodded and said, "For the sake of my freedom, I will temporarily accept these grievances and go with that troublesome man, uh!" The dyer coughed embarrassedly, and said with some embarrassment: "With that troublesome man, ask for a kiss!"
Xiyu laughed out loud in disregard of the image, and said breathlessly: "Seven... Shang, you... You also have a woman begging a man today... Dear, it's okay, I'll be your strong backing! ”
Qishang's face was red with shame, he naughtily picked up the snacks on the table, stuffed them into Xiyu's mouth, and said with a coquettish smile: "Xiyu, it seems that you want to block your mouth with food!" I can't think of a good way, and you laugh at me! You won't let me play dead! The empress's birthday feast is also too unlucky! ”
Lingji watched Qishang take a snack and stuff it into Xiyu's mouth, and her naughty appearance seemed to be back to when she was a child, when she and Qishang were still close, it's so good, I don't know when Qishang has changed!
"In my opinion, whoever marries you will only be bullied! The woman's family is so rough! Yuyu's magnetic voice chuckled, stretching out her slender hand to block her next wave of attacks!
Qishang thought of the past words, the soft and hard did not eat the left overseer, she did everything possible to give him all her tenderness, but he abandoned it. Thinking of this, she had no interest in laughing, let go of Xiyu and returned to her seat and said, "That troublesome man is also his bad luck!" Who told him to hit the muzzle! ”
Lingji was also deeply sorry for the little prince of Beihou Mansion in her heart, but she was really helpless, who called Princess Yabu had already had the idea of Qishang! Let them have to take the initiative!
