Chapter 12: Surprise?

At this time, Xie An didn't know that he was about to come to a catastrophe, so he and Xiang Qing were surrounded by many warblers and swallows, drinking and laughing.

"Brother, yesterday my brother said that he wanted to invite you to eat and drink, and now he can cash it out! - Brother, you can't hold a grudge against your brother anymore! Xiang Qing, who was drunk, put his arms around the two beautiful women, and drank the wine she handed over under the persuasion of the other woman, while looking at Xie An and said with a smile.

"That's the ......" On the other side, Xie An also hugged the two good-looking women, nodded again and again, and said, "What do you mean to hold a grudge, when the younger brother and the third brother met for the first time, if it wasn't for the third brother to come to the rescue, the younger brother may have been killed by the second brother Chen, and the third brother is the little brother's life-saving benefactor!" ――The little brother salutes the third brother for a cup! ”

"!" Under the service of the women on both sides, Xiang Qing happily drank the wine in the cup, then raised a finger and shook it, and said with a smile, "The third brother did save your kid's life that day, but it wasn't the first time the two of us met......

"Third brother is drunk, right?"

"Brother laughed!" Pushing away the woman on the right, Xiang Qing sat closer to Xie An, and said drunkly, "When I first saw my brother, the third brother also mistook you for a villain, and beat my brother to the ground indiscriminately, my brother owes you once, and saved your life that day, just to pay off ......"

"The third brother recognized the wrong person, right? Why doesn't the little brother remember? Xie An tilted his head and thought about it for a long time, but he didn't think of such a thing.

"No, it's you!" Xiang Qing nodded heavily, and then saw the drunken Xie An put on a sluggish look, meditated hard, smiled and waved his hand and said, "Forget it, brother can't think of it, forget it, anyway, my brother owes you a favor, today, you and I won't be drunk and won't return!" ”

"If you don't get drunk, you won't go home!" After touching the cup with Xiang Qing once, Xie An drank all the wine in the cup.

"Refreshing!" Seeing Xie An so refreshing, Xiang Qing was even more interested, and while waving his hand to ask the Qinglou woman who was waiting beside him to pour wine, he raised his thumb and said with a smile, "Seriously, the third brother admires you, such a great thing, my brother actually refused ......"

Xie An tilted his increasingly confused head and thought for a long time, only then did he realize that Xiang Qing was referring to his Xie An's refusal of Liang Qiuwu to arrange a career for him, waved his hand and said with a smile, "What kind of ability is it to rely on women to be big officials?" ”

"Good! Be ambitious! Xiang Qing praised loudly, then his tone changed, and he pointed his finger at Xie An, half warning, half joking and said, "However, if you kid dares to do anything that disappoints her, I can't spare you!" ”

"Rest assured!" beckoned to Xiang Qing, and after he stretched out his head, Xie An reluctantly leaned his head over, whispered a few words in his ear, and heard Xiang Qing's eyebrows smile.

"Good boy, you've got you! - I said why did Miss suddenly return to the house yesterday, so that's the case, well, since you have made a wedding vow, then you are the aunt of the house......" As he spoke, he drunkenly patted the buttocks of the woman next to him, and laughed loudly, "Why don't you pour wine for my son-in-law!" ”

"Yes!" The woman chuckled, moved to Xie An's side with a wine jug, and called in a coquettish voice, "Childe, please use the wine ......."

The rest of the women on the side also smiled and persuaded each other.

It's no wonder that these women are so enthusiastic, you must know that Xiang Qing just took out a full ten taels of gold to reward these women, which can be described as a spendthrift of money, and now, when I heard that Xie An's identity seems to be above Xiang Qing, that dusty woman, where would she not be warm?

"Hehe, thank you for this sister...... Xie An smiled and drank the wine full of wine again, causing the women around him to praise him one after another.

"Brother, good drink!" Seeing Xie An pouring several glasses in a row, Xiang Qing applauded loudly, and after a wine burp, he seemed to think of something, and said with a smile, "Speaking of which, my brother keeps saying that he wants to be a big official, but why hasn't there been any movement for a long time?" Could it be ...... It's just out of self-esteem that he rejected Miss's kindness? ”

"You don't understand!" Maybe because the relationship is getting more and more familiar, Xie An gradually became more casual, I saw him snort a few times, glanced at Xiang Qing drunkenly and said, "I'm waiting for an opportunity, so what...... Waiting for the opportunity to move, yes, yes, that's it......" He paused, raised his right hand, clenched it into a fist, licked his lips and said, "If you take it step by step, how can a person like me, who has no foundation, become a big official within ten years?" ”

"Brother means ......"

I saw Xie An smile, grabbed Xiang Qing's shoulder, and drunkenly whispered two words in his ear.

"From the dragon!"

Even Xiang Qing, who was very drunk, couldn't help but wake up most of his alcohol because of these two words, and he looked at Xie An, who seemed to be only sixteen or seventeen years old, in disbelief, to know that it was something that ordinary people dared to say.

I think I've heard something terrible......

From the dragon ......

Could it be His Royal Highness the Ninth and King Li Shou?

In Xiang Qing's heart, several thoughts turned in an instant, and then he frowned deeply.

Regarding the Nine Emperor Prince Li Shou, Xiang Qing didn't have much contact with him, but even so, Xiang Qing knew a little about it.

In his opinion, this Nine Emperor Princes has no possibility of winning the throne of the emperor at all, after all, the title of the Nine Emperor Princes is placed there, King Anle, as the name suggests, His Royal Highness the Prince, I am afraid that he has already lost the qualification to take the heir, so it is only today that he was named the King of Anle, so that he can keep himself and enjoy himself for a lifetime.

Could it be that this kid has a way to make the powerless Nine Emperor Princes a candidate for the crown prince? Or is it just lip service?

If it's the latter, then it's nothing, with his status as a young lady, even if this kid doesn't do anything, he can still become an important minister in the court in the future, but if it's the former......

So the position of the Liangqiu family in the Donggong Mansion and his own young lady is probably a little embarrassing......

Just as Xiang Qing was thinking about Xie An's words, suddenly, only to hear a bang, the door of the wing room was kicked open.

Who is so rude?!

Xiang Qing was furious in his heart, he knew that he had taken care of the steward of this store, but he didn't expect that someone would come to make trouble, which simply didn't take him Xiang Qing seriously.

He looked up angrily, glanced at the man standing in the doorway, and turned pale.

Because he saw that Liang Qiuwu was standing at the door with a huge long sword taller than her, with a gloomy face, the anger in his eyes burning.

Oops......

Xiang Qing subconsciously looked at Xie An, but found that he was already drunk and unconscious, half snuggling into the arms of the Qinglou women, still muttering something in his mouth.

And Liang Qiuwu obviously noticed Xie An over there, his face was even more angry, and he pulled out the giant sword with a bang, and slashed at the table while everyone was stunned.

The women only felt a strong wind blowing in their faces, and then the table in front of them cracked and fell to the ground with a thud, and the dishes and dishes on the table were shattered.

"Get out!" Glancing at the trembling women, Liang Qiuwu said in a deep voice.

At this time, Xiang Qingzheng was stunned to look at the smooth incision on the table without any roughness, and subconsciously raised his hand when he heard the words, and waved to the women again and again, "Hurry up, hurry up!" ”

Now, those women also realized what was going on, and walked quickly past Liang Qiu Wu with their heads down, leaving the room, leaving only Xiang Qing who was covered with cold sweat, Xie An, who was drunk and unconscious, and Liang Qiu Wu, whose face was so cold that it seemed to be covered with a layer of frost.

"Miss......" Yi Yi walked in from outside the door and whispered, "The slave has informed the steward of this building, and has given him some belongings, telling him not to spread the word about it......"

Liang Qiuwu nodded silently, then glanced at Xie An again, frowned and said, "Xiang Qing!" ”

"The last general!" Seeing that Liang Qiuwu called her name directly, instead of the usual Third Brother Xiang, Xiang Qing didn't know that she was extremely angry at the moment, and she didn't dare to make a mistake at all, so she clenched her fists.

"Take him with you and go home!" As he spoke, Liang Qiuwu put the giant sword in his hand into the scabbard, turned around and stepped out of the door.

"Yes!"

Xiang Qing carried Xie An out of the flower building, got into the carriage prepared by Yi Yi to hide people's eyes, and after staying for a while, the group finally returned to the Donggong Mansion.

Resisting Xie An back to the bed in the room, and glancing at Yi Yi, who was taking care of him, Xiang Qing quietly invited Liang Qiuwu to the door and told her everything Xie An said.

"Did he really say that?" Looking back at the direction of the door, even Liang Qiuwu, who has always been steady, couldn't help but show a little strange color in his eyes.

"Yes!" Xiang Qing nodded.

"Whew!" With a long exhale, Liang Qiu Wuwei paced a few steps on the path in the courtyard with his hands behind his back, and muttered, "This is indeed not what ordinary people dare to say, am I underestimating him?" Or ......"

"Maybe that kid doesn't know the height of the sky, and he speaks wildly,......" Xiang Qing whispered what Liang Qiuwu thought.

"Heh," looking at Xiang Qing for a long time, Liang Qiuwu suddenly smiled lightly, and said with praise, "In short, it is a good thing for me to know that my future husband is not a person who lives in Gou'an......"

"What does that young lady mean ......"

Perhaps because he understood the meaning of Xiang Qing's words, Liang Qiuwu frowned and said, "The four towns are not allowed to interfere in the affairs of the emperor's heir, this is the national law set by the ancestors!" As one of the four towns, how can I knowingly commit a crime? ”

"Even if you can't interfere, but you ...... position"

Liang Qiu Wu frowned, shook his head and said, "I don't think His Royal Highness Nine has the strength to confront His Highness Li Mao!" - At least not yet, it's too much! ”

"What if it happens?" Xiang Qing asked in a low voice.

"This ......" Liang Qiuwu hesitated, and after lowering his head and thinking for a while, he couldn't help but turn his head and look at Xie An's room.

As if he understood something, Xiang Qing grinned, clenched his fists and said, "The last general understands!" ――Miss's attitude is the attitude of my Eastern Army's Shenwu Battalion! ”

"Don't act rashly! - Since he dares to say this, most of them have his own plans, and don't want bad things! Liang Qiuwu subconsciously frowned and said, and after finishing speaking, her face flushed slightly.

"This general will naturally understand!" Xiang Qing hugged his fists, turned around and was about to leave.

"Stop!"

"What else does the young lady command?" Xiang Qing's expression was a little puzzled.

I saw Liang Qiuwu's gaze gradually turn cold, and he said coldly, "Third Brother Xiang, the grain reserves in the barracks are almost exhausted, you take some people to the Military Affairs Department to get some military rations to the camp!" ”

"To ...... How much? ”

"Two thousand stones!" Liang Qiuwu gritted his teeth and said.

Xiang Qing gasped when he heard this, and stammered, "Our army can't eat so much in half a year, right......?"

"Two thousand five hundred stones!"

"Little ...... Miss ......"

"Three thousand stones!"

"Yes! The last will obey! Seeing that the numbers were getting higher and higher, Xiang Qing dared to fight back, so he immediately hugged his fists and took his life, and left in a gloomy manner.

Walking far away to the garden gate in the backyard, he glanced back at Liang Qiuwu, who was still standing in the courtyard, Xiang Qing secretly complained, after all, receiving food is a chore.

But when he thought of the one Yi Yi was taking care of, Xiang Qing showed a gloating smile on his face again, and he bet that that one would definitely be worse than him.

"I really didn't expect that Miss would care about these things...... Well, yes, Miss is also a woman......"

Muttering, Xiang Qing hummed a minor tune and walked away, he planned to find a place to have a few more drinks, after all, from tomorrow, he had to be busy for a long time.
