Chapter 263: Strange Couple

On the stone path of the second gate, a middle-aged beautiful woman wearing a rose-red pomegranate skirt and a ruby head, dressed in a luxurious and gorgeous manner, smiling and holding a young woman wearing a plain skirt, the woman was smiling, and on the surface, the two were as close as a biological mother and daughter.

But if you look closely, you can see the gloom that sometimes appears in the eyes of the middle-aged beautiful woman.

The smile in the eyes of the young and elegant woman did not reach the bottom of her eyes, and the two willow eyebrows looked at the middle-aged beautiful woman in front of her with disbelief.

Two people with different hearts stubbornly walked into the courtyard holding hands.

Along the way, Qi Yunshu was thinking about why Qin Yuru had changed, until she entered Songtao Courtyard and saw that the place where the aloe vera was originally placed was empty, she understood that Qin Yuru already knew that it was her idea for Luo Yi to bring someone to pull out the medicine.

The reason why this place is so empty, I'm afraid this is Qin Yuru's true thoughts, she is unwilling to be calm, so the empty place reminds her to make up for it from her!

Realizing this, Qi Yunshu began to be wary in her heart.

She had been tense, and she didn't dare to relax her guard at all times, but what she didn't expect was that Qin Yuru had never taken any action.

She just led her to the courtyard of Songtao Courtyard for a walk, and then brought her to Zhao Hongyi.

"Master, the eldest daughter-in-law is back, come to greet you!" Qin Yuru smiled softly.

Zhao Hongyi raised his head from a row of official documents and replied casually: "I'm back, where is Da Lang?" ”

"If you go back to the master, as soon as you enter the city gate, you will be invited away by someone from the palace!" Qi Yunshu was a little confused, so she didn't know what the couple wanted today, so she replied very conservatively.

Zhao Hongyi seemed to be a little surprised: "Oh, as soon as you enter the city gate, you will be invited away, which father-in-law is here to invite someone?" ”

Qi Yunshu thought carefully about the person who came to invite people at the gate of the city, dressed in an official robe, and heard Qi Yunchao say that it was an official of the Ministry of Rites, where is the father-in-law, she said truthfully.

Zhao Hongyi couldn't help but be even more surprised, but that look was only covered up after a moment, and he didn't feel that people would find out.

didn't know that Qi Yunshu had been paying attention to him, so he had already seen all his performances.

It's just that I don't understand, what is his opinion on this matter?

Zhao Hongyi was silent for a moment, and put down the wolf in his hand full of ink: "I heard that your trip went very well, so it seems that the emperor should have a favor for Zhao Jing!" ”

"I'm just a woman, I don't understand these things in the court!" Qi Yunshu didn't want to talk in depth.

In her impression, she has never had a good impression of Zhao Hongyi.

He seems to have only Zhao Gan in his heart as a father, and he probably has never looked at Zhao Jing, the eldest son of a hard-nosed son, let alone took the initiative to talk about him and care about him.

Qi Yunshu deliberately stretched out her head towards the window and looked at the sky outside, the sun did not come out in the west, but was gloomy, and suddenly the sky changed.

But Zhao Hongyi, which way can't you think of it?

Probably not satisfied with her answer, and before she could say anything, Zhao Hongyi lost patience and asked directly: "What happened to you in Northern Xinjiang at that time?" ”

Qi Yunshu lowered her head and lowered her eyes, and finally understood the reason why Zhao Hongyi was so abnormal now, it turned out that he wanted to talk from her.

Thinking about it, although Zhao Hongyi is an official of the household department, he is not a great official in the court, so some Tang newspapers sent back from the frontier are basically impossible for him to see.

So he didn't know that some of these situations were normal, but what Qi Yunshu couldn't figure out was, why did he want to know these things? These things are not his responsibility in memory.

"What is the old man asking? There are a lot of things happening in northern Xinjiang, I don't know which one the master wants to know! "Qi Yunshu didn't hide it from him, this trip in Northern Xinjiang is indeed not peaceful!

"I heard that the prince of the Qi family took people into the Forest of No Return, and you went over to rescue him and the Qi family's army?" Zhao Hongyi wanted to pretend not to care, but he couldn't hide the excitement and urgency in his eyes.

Qi Yunshu felt very strange, Zhao Hongyi seemed to be very concerned about the matter of not returning to the forest like this, but he couldn't tell why from his expression.

Qi Yunshu was curious in her heart, but she pretended to be obedient and indifferent, and replied softly: "This is indeed the case!" Qi Yunshu didn't want to explain to him in detail, for fear that he would be forced to tell him, so he lied that he didn't follow.

Qin Yuru's eyes jumped, and it was obvious that she didn't believe it.

And Zhao Hongyi stared directly: "Why should Dalang's daughter-in-law be blinded by me, if I am not sure that you have been to the Forest of No Return, how can I ask you!" ”

This meant that he was sure that Qi Yunshu had indeed gone to the Forest of No Return before he asked, but he didn't expect Qi Yunshu to deny it.

And Qi Yunshu thought of Zhao Hongyi's annoyance, and he lied without even blinking his eyebrows:

"Who is the master listening to? Don't you recognize the wrong person! No matter what he said, she just didn't admit it, anyway, it was impossible for him Zhao Hongyi to have been to Northern Xinjiang.

And she was dressed as a man and a woman throughout the whole process, even if she was traveling with people, except for the Qi brothers and others, few people knew that she was Zhao Jing's wife.

And who can Zhao Hongyi find to determine?

"You...... I've heard that you're tricky, but I didn't believe it, but I didn't expect you to be really stubborn! ”

Zhao Hongyi's patience had been exhausted by Qi Yunshu's many perfunctory words, he restrained the gentleness that he deliberately released, restored his usual coldness in front of Qi Yunshu, and said in an extremely impatient voice:

"If you don't want to say it, don't say it, there will always be someone who wants to say it!"

He snorted angrily and flicked his sleeves out.

Leaving Qin Yuru and Qi Yunshu who didn't care.

"You...... You actually made the old man angry and left angry? Qin Yuru looked at Qi Yunshu as if she couldn't believe it.

Although Zhao Hongyi's official position is not high, he is the eldest son of the Zhao Mansion, and since the old lady doesn't take care of the family's affairs, he is the head of the family.

The master of the house, the subordinates under his hands, who does not value his face, who does not respect him very much?

But this seemingly delicate and slender little girl actually directly challenged his authority, and when he put down his body to speak, she not only didn't say it, but also made him lose face and throw away in all kinds of perfunctory ways.

"Do you know that you have upset my lord?" Qin Yuru said tentatively.

Qi Yunshu spread her hands, looking innocent: "I don't know, I ...... I really don't know the situation of not returning to the forest, but I heard that it is very dangerous inside, and even Zhao Jing and the others almost folded inside, but fortunately, ......" Qi Yunshu saw that Qin Yuru's ears were pricked up, and her pink lips pursed and her voice stopped abruptly.

Qin Yuru subconsciously asked: "Fortunately, what's the good thing?" Who saved him? ”

Qi Yunshu smiled and shook her head: "Actually, I just listened to what they said, the details are not clear, if the lord and the lady are interested, when Zhao Jing comes back from the palace, I will let him tell you the subtleties alone!"

It's just that my knowledge is really limited, and I'm afraid that what I say will not only not let the two of you understand that there is no return to the forest, but I am afraid that it will cause unnecessary misleading and bad things, so I think I better keep my mouth shut! ”

After Qi Yunshu aroused the strong interest in Qin Yuru's eyes with her words, she changed her words, but she refused to mention the matter again.

So much so that Qin Yuru was both curious and excited in her heart, but the other party was stuck there, so that her appetite was hung in the middle of the center, and she couldn't go up or down.

She hated it so much, but thinking that Zhao Hongyi had a seizure in front of her just now, no one was afraid, if she also had a seizure at this time and offended her, it would be impossible to ask the truth from her mouth in the future.

Thinking about this, Qin Yuru's mysterious interest in the Forest of No Return made her forcibly suppress her anger, and in the face of Qi Yunshu's non-cooperation, she also forced out a smile, making people have some fruit points, saying that it was newly researched by the people in the kitchen, and the person who made things had very good skills, and it tasted very good, so she was persuaded to stay and taste it.

Qi Yunshu ran around for several days in a row, although she was in a carriage, but she was really tired and panicked, and she originally wanted to go back to her home to take a quick rest, but she didn't expect to meet Zhao Hongyi and his wife playing with each other.

Although she didn't know the reason why they inquired about the non-return to the forest, their urgency made her feel the same way!

But the more this happens, the more she won't let them get away with it!
