This answer was similar to what Shen Yan had originally guessed.

Either it's money or love, there is always a reason to tie up the Lu Si system.

"What year did Lu Si enter the palace?"

Shen Yan suddenly thought of something, turned his head and asked.

"It is the first year of the Taichu, that is, the second year of His Majesty's accession to the throne." Xiaoxing checked the information of the personnel of the Shanggong Bureau early in the morning, and as soon as Shen Yan asked, she said it decisively.

I took off the shackles of my body, and I could no longer hear the joy of this morning in my ears, and my eyes were clear. Shen Yan, who had been running around for a long time, was finally able to sit quietly on the seat.

She looked at the birds falling from the branches outside the window, thinking about what Xiaoxing had just said.

Taichu is the name of the emperor's era.

When the emperor first ascended the throne, he had to keep filial piety, and he could only follow the routine of following the name of the first emperor, and only in the second year could he change it to his own year name.

In the first year of Taichu, Lu Si entered the palace.

It is unbelievable that such a person who has been up and down in the palace for more than ten years was taken under the command of Xu Yu, who finally entered the palace and had no foundation.

……

Su Qingqing was in the dust, and finally entered Chang'an in the waiting of Hongxiu's eyes.

"What about the city lord? What about good food and wine? I'm tired along the way. ”

He rushed from Danxia to Chang'an City in a caravan of camel wagons, his face was covered with sand and dust, his body was not combed, and his long hair that was about to knot was braided together by several pieces of coarse cloth, and his whole body exuded a different smell.

Su Qingqing said goodbye to the caravan and arrived when he heard the location of the Xu Mansion, and as soon as he entered the gate of the Xu Mansion, he saw Hongxiu and hurriedly shouted.

Hongxiu has always been spicy, but she is most afraid of a scoundrel like Su Qingqing.

She was shocked by Su Qingqing's sloppy appearance, in the past, Su Qingqing would not be so depressed no matter how unkempt she was, as if she had just been fished out of a stinky ditch.

Hongxiu's face was stunned, she took a few breaths under her nose, almost vomited, frowned and pinched her nose, pinched her waist and asked, "Master Su, I still suggest that you go take a bath, otherwise you will have to smoke the city lord." ”

"Hongxiu, you actually dislike me, it wasn't like this in the letter when you asked me to go back to Chang'an!"

Su Qingqing was hurt by Hongxiu's undisguised dislike, raised her arm and sniffed it carefully, and didn't feel anything unusual.

I smell it for a long time, but I don't feel it.

Xu Jin happened to be discussing with Qingcheng in the front hall today, and when he heard Su Qingqing's familiar voice outside, he came out to take a look.

When he saw Su Qingqing's posture, his eyebrows could not be carefully examined, and his face was calm and unchanged.

It was Qingcheng, who stood beside Hongxiu quite defensively.

"Xiao Su, don't come unharmed."

After Xu Jin said hello, he smiled faintly, as if he didn't smell anything on him, and was about to step forward.

It was Su Qingqing, whooped, put his hands in front of him, staring back and forth between several people and stepping back.

After he stood still, he saluted Xu Jin respectfully and said, "Su Qingqing participates in the city lord." ”

Xu Jin knew that this was the courtesy of the Cardinal Pavilion, and happily accepted it.

After putting away the number of gifts, Su Qingqing sighed, looked at Xu Jin's handsome face, sniffed himself a little embarrassed, and said, "Today I want to knock the city lord with a good meal of wine and food, I have to wash it before eating, otherwise let the pavilion master know, and I have to cut me." ”

Su Qingqing belongs to the Cabinet of Ministers, and the Pavilion is founded and supported by Jiang Cheng, and he is also a subordinate of Xu Jin.

Although Xu Jin is the city lord, he is quite proficient in the art of the Yan armor of the Shu Pavilion, and everyone in the Yan armor master is happy and convinced, and he should be respectful.

Xu Jin smiled faintly, understood what he meant, stood with his hands in his hands, and said, "Hongxiu, take Xiao Su down." ”

"Yes."

Hongxiu held her breath and led in front, took Su Qingqing to the guest house of Xu Mansion, and called the guards to quickly fetch bath water.

If you don't wash it off, the smell will be gone.

She sighed in her heart, and the city lord could say to Su Qingqing, a rough man with a full beard, Xiao Su.

Thinking of this title, Hongxiu shook the goosebumps on her arms, and when she saw that Su Qingqing had already entered the house, she decided to leave first.

Xu Jin saw her go back to the front hall, put down the letter in her hand, and said lightly: "Is it settled?" ”

"It's all arranged."

Hongxiu's rare and well-behaved appearance made Qingcheng laugh on the side.

"Master Su is still Master Su, who travels south and north. He has been in the Western Regions during this time, and if it weren't for the city lord's urgent call, I don't know how long he would have to stay there. There is little water in the Western Regions, and there is a lot of wind and sand, and Master Su has such a temperament, so he is naturally not rough. ”

Qingcheng said on the side, which can be regarded as solving Hongxiu's doubts, why Su Qingqing is so sloppy.

"There are many skilled craftsmen in the Western Regions, many Hu people, and there are also Westerners. Xiao Su also went over there to study the art of exquisite armor. ”

Xu Jin put away the letter and handed it to Qingcheng, and said lightly to Hongxiu: "You go and prepare for the good Yulou Spring." ”

Su Qingqing has two hobbies in life, drinking, and skillful making.

This Yulou Spring is a fine wine in the south of the Yangtze River, with fresh notes and great stamina, which is not inferior to the burning knives of the Ashina tribe in the grassland.

When Hongxiu took the order and turned to leave, it happened that Mrs. An came in.

At this time, Qingcheng had just put the letter that Xu Jin handed over to him into his arms. Mrs. An's eyes swept over the place where Qingcheng hid the letter like flowing water, and finally landed on Xu Jin's face, smiling gently.

"City Lord."

Mrs. An bowed softly, and the maid behind her put the tray in her hand on the table in Xu Jin's hand.

The friendship in her eyes is true, and the identity of the fine work is also true.

Xu Jin and Qingcheng knew it, but they still had to accompany her to act, just to find out the intention of Wang Huanzhi's move.

"This is the golden gum flower bone soup that I have stewed for a long time, the city lord can taste it."

"Leave it alone, what are you doing today?"

Xu Jin blocked what she was going to say next, her eyes were calm and there was no trace of emotion.

An Niang's confession on the night of Shen Yan's abduction was full of loopholes, and Xu Jin took advantage of the situation and took her into the back house. First, it can suppress the control of the head of the family over his marriage, and second, Anniang is dangerous and the purpose is unknown, and it is safest to put it under his nose.

Although she ran into the cold wall one after another, Mrs. An still maintained a light smile.

She is good at dancing, and at first she appeared in the City Lord's Mansion as a dancing queen, even if she became Mrs. An, she still maintained the good posture of the dancing queen, and her thin waist was full of hand.

In winter, her clothes are bloated, so she wears less than others, and always appears in front of Xu Jin with the most brilliant appearance, but he never seems to care about these.

"I heard that the emperor has been crowned as the eldest princess, and the concubine wants to enter the palace to meet the eldest princess and congratulate her."

She said with a light smile.

Xu Jin rarely raised her eyes to look at her when she heard this, and Mrs. An noticed his scrutiny, but she just smiled lightly, her eyes were gentle.

It is true that An Niang abducted Shen Yan, so does she know that Emperor Ji is Shen Yan?

If he knew, it would be far more serious than he thought.

Whether it is abducting the emperor or pretending to be the emperor, poking it out is a shocking event, and it is not something that a little An Niang can do.

"The eldest princess is sick and weak, and she does not receive idle people."

Xu Jin thought for a few moments, and then replied lightly with thin lips.

After receiving the expected answer, Mrs. An chuckled twice and said, "The city lord has a deep friendship with the eldest princess, and he cares about the eldest princess's body, so the concubine will retire first." ”

With that, he turned and left.
