It was just after noon when Zhou Yunxi and his entourage returned to Beijing.

After entering the palace and seeing Chu Ci, everyone scattered and went home.

"I'm back."

Xiling Ying naturally returned to the accommodation arranged by Chu Ci for the guests in the Western Regions, Lin Qing returned to his mansion, and Zhou Yunxi and Qin Fengyi naturally returned to the Hou Mansion.

As soon as he stopped in front of the Hou Mansion, Hou Ye's voice sounded, making Zhou Yunxi and Qin Fengyi suddenly look in the direction where the voice came from.

"Father." After hearing this, Qin Fengyi and the two answered in unison, and then walked towards Hou Ye, "When did you come back?" ”

"A day before you." Hou Ye's face was serious, but his tone was quite gentle. When he looked at Zhou Yunxi, his eyes became more and more gentle, and he said, "How is your body recently?" ”

"Thank you father for your concern, it's okay."

Zhou Yunxi said softly.

"It's okay." Hou Ye didn't ask much, only nodded slightly, and continued: "Go in first, Yaoyao knows that you are coming back today, and you are busy in the kitchen early in the morning, saying that she wants to make the food you learned to eat when you go to play." ”

As he spoke, Hou Ye turned around directly and raised his feet into the Hou Mansion.

Seeing Hou Ye like this, Zhou Yunxi and Qin Fengyi did not hesitate, and immediately followed. Of course, they could see that Hou Ye's face was not good-looking, but since Hou Ye didn't ask much, the two of them wouldn't say much.

The more they talked about this matter, the more uncomfortable they felt in their hearts.

Especially Zhou Yunxi, although she doesn't complain or anything, she must be very sad in her heart. That child is the first child of Zhou Yunxi and Qin Fengyi.

"Looks like I'm here by coincidence."

Zhou Yunxi and Qin Fengyi had just entered the Hou Mansion, and a crisp female voice came from behind them. The female voice gave people a sense of flamboyance, which also made Zhou Yunxi and the two turn around immediately.

This voice, even if Zhou Yunxi is separated by another ten years, he will remember it clearly.

- Qin Yue.

"What are you looking at me for? Don't you want me to come in and sit down? Qin Yue smiled, his smile was very bright, and even faintly gave people a sense of sincerity, "I haven't seen you for so long, don't reminisce about the past?" ”

Zhou Yunxi was silent, only staring at Qin Yue with red eyes.

Qin Fengyi was also silent, his eyes gloomy. He has been holding Zhou Yunxi, so Zhou Yunxi's slight tremor was clearly felt by him, which also made the anger and distress in his heart more and more intense.

"Cousin?"

Qin Yue was unaware of this, and didn't seem to see Zhou Yunxi's eyes that were red with hatred and anger, and didn't seem to see Qin Fengyi's gloomy face that was indistinguishable from the bottom of the pot.

She said to herself, and even walked with her feet raised, but within a few steps, she directly entered the Hou Mansion, which made Qin Fengyi's forehead bruise, and Zhou Yunxi's hands suddenly tightened.

They don't want to avenge their children? Absolutely. 80

can see the envoy of the neighboring country following behind Qin Yue, looking at the real Lu Qian, Qin Fengyi and Zhou Yunxi, there is a trace of sobriety in his mind.

"The princess's 'cousin', this son can't stand it." Qin Fengyi's voice almost gritted his teeth, and his face did not show the slightest gentleness, "Today, the Hou Mansion will not treat outsiders, and please ask the envoy and the princess to leave." ”

As soon as these words came out, Lu Qian took a step forward, with a smile on his face, looking very polite.

"Why should the prince and the princess rush to catch up?"

Lu Qian smiled, his voice unusually gentle.

"The official and the princess came from afar, the princess's father is also surnamed 'Qin', a distant relative of the Marquis of Qin Mansion of Great Chu, and the princess is the cousin of the prince, how can she be an outsider? There is no doubt that this official is an outsider, but the princess is not an outsider, right? The prince is in a hurry to drive people away, and this approach will inevitably hurt the hearts of his relatives too much. ”

Lu Qian said this lightly, and the smile on his face became brighter and brighter. Especially when he saw Zhou Yunxi's face becoming more and more ugly, and the resentment in his eyes becoming more and more obvious, Lu Qian felt more and more that he was in a good mood.

Qin Fengyi and others had already known about the collapse of the conversation with his 'stand-in' at the border and making him ugly, so at this time, the worse and angry Zhou Yunxi was, the happier he was.

After all, at the border, they have disgraced their stand-ins, and they have also disgraced their neighbors. Even so, for Lu Qian, this is also a big enemy!

"The princess of the neighboring country has a noble status, and my Hou Mansion does not dare to climb relatives indiscriminately." At this time, Hou Ye turned back slowly, and when he saw that Zhou Yunxi and Qin Fengyi's faces were inappropriate, he was slightly blamed, and said: "Ben Hou thought that something had happened to make the two of you not keep up for a long time, but I didn't expect that it would be delayed because of some people who have nothing to do with the Hou Mansion." ”

"There are no outsiders in the Hou Mansion today, princess, Lord Lu, please go back." Hou Ye said for a while, then smiled, and then said: "If the two of you are unwilling, you will not give Ben Hou face." ”

As soon as these words came out, Qin Yue and Lu Qian's faces suddenly changed slightly.

If Qin Fengyi said this, it would be fine, Qin Yue and Lu Qian were not so afraid. Even if Qin Fengyi wanted to attack him, he would have to weigh it again. In this way, they had time to react and take precautions, and at the same time bite Qin Feng back.

But if it was Hou Ye who spoke-

Qin Yue and Lu Qian both knew that even if the current Hou Ye had no real power, if he annoyed him, he would not care about the consequences when he did things.

Looking at Hou Ye's current appearance, I am afraid that he also knows what Qin Yue did to Zhou Yunxi in the first place. In this way, Qin Yue will not continue to persecute, but chooses to accept it when he sees it.

"Since Master Hou speaks, I can't bother." Qin Yue smiled, and after his eyes touched Hou Ye's cold eyes, he also let out a 'chuckle' in his heart, only to feel uncomfortably tight, "Farewell." ”

Hou treated Qin Yue very well in the past, so Qin Yue was also happy to be close to Hou Ye. Now that Hou Ye is treating her with such an attitude, for Qin Yue, it is more or less uncomfortable.

However, such discomfort disappeared without a trace in an instant, for no other reason, just because for Qin Yue today, the most important thing is the affairs of neighboring countries.

Only by satisfying the emperor of the neighboring country and these ministers of the neighboring country can Qin Yue save his life. If not, the people who want her life when they turn around are not just the children of the Qinhou Mansion.

"No."

Hou Ye's tone was still cold, and his face remained unchanged.

Seeing this, Lu Qian also smiled at Hou Ye, very polite. When facing Qin Fengyi and Zhou Yunxi, the smile on his face was a little more sarcastic.

In any case, Lu Qian hated Qin Fengyi and others because of the things they did at the border. As for the mines, he is also determined to get them.

"Maybe the prince and the princess can have a deal with this official in the future." Lu Qian suddenly opened his mouth before turning around, but it was not clear, "We will definitely meet again." ”
