22 Coquettish with the emperor
"Little brother, what's your name?"
Qiu Luoxue began to trick the little assassin she caught yesterday early in the morning, and she was clever enough to order her to detain him and the big assassin separately, so that she could coax the children.
The little assassin looked at Qiu Luoxue, but did not answer her words, nor did he eat what she had sent. Qiu Luoxue observed the room, and he didn't move anything in it, and he didn't even go to bed to sleep, just squatting in the corner. Maybe in the eyes of this child, they are all dangerous people.
"Don't you want to save the people who came with you? He was badly wounded. Qiu Luoxue continued, crouching down in front of the little assassin while Nie Yuan watched them from the sidelines.
"What did you do to my brother?" The little assassin finally spoke, his voice still a little childish, and he trembled a little from fear.
"It turns out that that person is your brother, is he your own brother?" Qiu Luoxue asked again.
But the kid didn't speak, Qiu Luoxue's patience, really, a little bit of it, but there was no way, who let her take this job by herself? And she knew that once they were taken by Nie Yuan to the prison of the shadow guard, it would be impossible for them to come out again.
"Your brother is fine now, and the injury on his leg has been shown to the doctor, so it's fine." Qiu Luoxue continued, "However, if you don't answer my question well, your brother may be in danger. ”
Then she pointed at Nie Yuan, and said in a terrible tone, "Have you seen the people over there?" That man is very fierce, he wants to take your brother away and take him to a terrible place, and the people who go there don't come out alive, sister, I ......"
Speaking of this, Qiu Luoxue immediately stopped talking and covered her mouth. It's over, and it turned out to be a leak. She glanced at Nie Yuan quietly, he still had the same expression as always, looking at him and not paying attention to the things on his side.
It's okay, it's okay, it's almost exposed. Qiu Luoxue said happily in her heart.
"Brother, I want to help you, I know you didn't mean to kill me, right, you tell me everything you know, so that you and your brother can live." Qiu Luoxue continued.
"Can you really save my brother?" The little assassin looked at Qiu Luoxue and asked, tears welling up in his eyes, his lips had begun to dry out because he hadn't drunk water for a long time.
Looking at his appearance, Qiu Luoxue couldn't help but feel distressed, if that person was his own brother, what made him take such a young child out to do such a risky thing?
"Of course, let me tell you quietly, I am friends with the emperor, and I will definitely be able to save you." Qiu Luoxue said.
"Gold, my brother said that if I kill you, that person will give us two thousand taels of gold." The little assassin said.
"Two thousand taels? Or gold! Qiu Luoxue said in surprise, "What a generous employer." ”
After that, Qiu Luoxue chatted with the little assassin for a while, and by talking to him, Qiu Luoxue knew that they were brothers, the big one was called Jiang Hai, and the small one was called Jiang Jiang. They also have an elderly and seriously ill mother at home, and Jiang Hai agreed to this in order to buy medicine for her mother's treatment.
"Allure." Qiu Luoxue shouted as soon as she went out from the residence where Jiang Jiang was being held.
"Childe, what's the matter?" Allure quickly appeared in front of Qiu Luoxue and asked.
"You go and call Imperial Doctor Xu, there is a patient who needs him to take a look." Qiu Luoxue said.
"Childe, Imperial Doctor Xu entered the palace early in the morning, and he hasn't come back yet." Allure replied.
Qiu Luoxue frowned slightly after hearing this, and said to herself: "What is this guy doing in the palace?" ”
In the Feixia Palace, Xu Zhonghang entered the main hall under the leadership of Xing'er, and before he arrived at Xing'er, he said: "Niangniang, Imperial Doctor Xu is here." ”
Duanfei Niangniang, who was sitting in the inner room, heard Xing'er's words, a trace of surprise and joy flashed in her eyes, and she immediately got up and went outside to greet her. So, she and Xu Zhonghang met outside the palace gate. The moment she saw Xu Zhonghang, Concubine Duan almost burst into tears, looking at his face as always, just like in her memory. She wanted to open her mouth several times to call his name, but there were many people in the palace, and she was afraid that she would cry as soon as she opened her mouth. So in the end just looked at him and didn't say anything.
Xu Zhonghang looked at Concubine Duan, and her mood was not much better, she was much thinner than before entering the palace, her face was pale, her face was sick, looking at her with teary eyes, his eyes were full of unbearable and distressed.
"I heard you caught an assassin yesterday?" Xia Zimo asked.
"Well, I caught, there are two groups of assassins, one is dead, and two are locked up in the Prime Minister's Mansion." Qiu Luoxue replied.
"Aren't you hurt?" Xia Zimo asked again.
"Ah~ There was a caught beast trapped, and his leg was a little injured, so it's no big deal." Qiu Luoxue replied.
"I'm asking if you're hurt."
"Me?" Qiu Luoxue pointed to herself and said, "I'm not injured, with Nie Shishi, I won't be hurt." ”
"In other words, Nie Shishi is really powerful, worthy of being the commander of the shadow guard, draw the sword, take out the sword, fly, wow, it's really handsome, this girl's heart of mine......" Qiu Luoxue mentioned Nie Yuan's performance yesterday and was a nymphomaniac, and explained to Xia Zimo endlessly, with actions in the middle, but unfortunately she accidentally said the wrong thing again, so scared that she quickly closed her mouth.
However, Xia Zimo didn't pay attention to her words at all, but looked at her expression, full of smiles, and didn't know why she was so excited to describe others, and felt a little uncomfortable.
"So you're in love with Nie Yuan again?" Xia Zimo's tone was a little jealous.
"Yes, of course I like it, Nie Shishi is handsome and can do martial arts, although it is a little cold, but it is still very attractive." Qiu Luo Snow Idiot said.
Xia Zimo said lukewarmly: "I can also do martial arts." ”
"Who is better than you and Nie Shishi?" Qiu Luoxue asked curiously.
"No, I don't know." Xia Zimo replied coldly.
"Then you compare with each other, I saw Nie Shi fighting so handsome yesterday, I was thinking that if you were replaced by the emperor, you should be very handsome." Qiu Luoxue said that it was not a big deal to see the excitement, and even instigated the emperor and Nie Yuan to fight.
And Xia Zimo's focus was not those, he looked at Qiu Luoxue and asked, "Did you miss me yesterday?" ”
"yes, I thought of it." Qiu Luoxue replied without thinking about it, she wouldn't have thought that Xia Zimo would misunderstand because of this sentence.
Sure enough, listening to her reaffirmation, Xia Zimo hooked his lips and laughed, completely like a young boy, and instantly forgot that he was still angry for Qiu Luoxue and Nie Yuan.
"Aren't there two more Assassins? How are you going to fix it? Xia Zimo asked again.
"Oh, that's what I'm here to say." Qiu Luoxue remembered the purpose of entering the palace and said, "Can you leave those two people to me to deal with?" ”
"What are you going to do with it?"
"Those two people weren't actually assassins, they were just two people, and they wanted to kill me because they were bewitched. If they tell what they are behind it, can they be spared? Qiu Luoxue asked.
"They want to kill you, but you want to let them go?" Xia Zimo asked, seemingly incomprehensible to Qiu Luoxue's thoughts.
"They're not bad people, they're just in it for the money." Qiu Luoxue said.
"Whatever it is for, it's the same unforgivable." Xia Zimo said.
"The life trapped by money, Your Majesty should not be able to understand, but I can understand that running around for my mother's medical expenses is also caused by filial piety, although the method is wrong, but fortunately it did not cause a catastrophe. Buddhists always say that the prodigal son will not change his money, if they will no longer do the death thing, why should we rush to kill everything? ”
Qiu Luoxue's tone was heavy when she said these words, as if she was empathetic, this was the second time that Xia Zimo saw this expression on her face.
"I don't understand the life trapped by money, but why does Lord Qiu understand, and the prime minister can't worry about money."
"Why not, there are so many mouths to eat at home for no reason, this silver, it is used as fast as running water. The Prime Minister's family is a big family, just relying on my meager income, how can I not be poor. Saying that, she stared at Xia Zimo with a pair of big eyes, looked at Xia Zimo expectantly, and said, "So Your Majesty, you should understand what I mean." ”
Xia Zimo naturally understood that she meant to cry to herself, but she deliberately teased her and said, "Those two assassins will be handed over to you to dispose of."
"Oh, that's not what they meant." Qiu Luoxue said disappointedly.
After calming down, Qiu Luoxue tried to persuade Xia Zimo again, "Your Majesty, I just said that the cost of the Prime Minister's Mansion is too big, so this silver is always not enough, so do you know what it means now?" ”
"I don't know." Xia Zimo refused, leaving no room for anything.
"Oops~ I mean the night pearl, if the emperor gives it to me, it can be exchanged for a lot of silver, you can give it to me." Qiu Luoxue simply said coquettishly, looking at Xia Zimo pitifully.
"Didn't you say no?" Xia Zimo asked rhetorically.
This stopped Qiu Luoxue, and after thinking about it carefully, she did say no when she left that day. It's really a stinky mouth, how can you say that you don't want such a good thing.
There was no way to explain, Qiu Luoxue simply denied it and said, "I haven't said it, how can I say that kind of thing."
Xia Zimo looked at Qiu Luoxue, who was playing tricks, the more she looked at it, the more she looked at it, the more she was satisfied, if she wasn't wearing men's clothes, he might really think she was a woman.
"Your Majesty, you obviously said that you would give me that night pearl." Qiu Luoxue saw a slight smile on Xia Zimo's face, and it seemed that she was in a good mood, so she said while he was happy.
"Didn't you really say it, if you can win in chess, the pearl of the night is yours." Xia Zimo said.
"Oops~" Qiu Luoxue snorted again, "I don't know how to play chess." ”
"I won't teach you."
"I don't want to learn."
"Then it can't be helped." Xia Zimo said with a helpless expression.
"Then you can watch the folds yourself, I won't accompany you, let's go." Qiu Luoxue adheres to the principle of leaving if she doesn't talk well, and she will leave when she says she can't. As he walked, he muttered: "In the novel, the emperors of other families are rewarded with thousands of taels of gold or something at every turn, and how much pearl agate jade cloth costs, why haven't I met such an emperor?" Hmph, it's all someone else's emperor. Saying that, she also glanced back at Xia Zimo, and said, "It's really stingy, as an emperor, how can you be stingier than me."
Although she said it very quietly, Xia Zimo's hearing was very good, and she listened to her words word for word, looking at Qiu Luoxue's back, revealing a bright smile.
After Qiu Luoxue left, Xia Zimo still had a smile on his face. The eunuch Jin Fu saw his smile and said meaningfully: "The slave hasn't seen His Majesty smile so happily for a long time, it seems that you are very compatible with Prime Minister Qiu."
"Haha, huh? I also think he's funny, like a kid, very funny. Xia Zimo couldn't help but laugh when he thought of Qiu Luoxue's words and her actions.
