Tang Qing didn't know why, but after hearing Qi Kexue's words, he couldn't help but feel a little happy in his heart, and said without thinking, "Since you want to go, go ahead." ”

Qi Kexue saw that the goal was achieved, so she didn't say anything, nodded and stood up, "I came to find the prince for this matter, so I won't disturb the prince to enjoy the beautiful scenery." ”

"Wait, I have something to tell you." Tang Qing also saw that she was leaving, so he stood up, and just as he wanted to speak, he thought of the two people on the side, and couldn't help but glance at them.

The two of them understood, and hurriedly stood up and retreated, although they were a little reluctant, but no one dared to disobey Tang Qingyi's order, like Qi Kexue, who dared to ask in front of Tang Qingyi, had never been before her, so when she passed by Qi Kexue's side, she couldn't help but show jealous eyes, but obviously Qi Kexue didn't take it seriously at all.

He sat down slowly, seeing that the two of them were far away, and the subordinates were also sent away, leaving only two people, and then asked, "What else is there to keep me here?" ”

"You want to go to the prince's birthday family banquet, it doesn't seem that simple, right?" Tang Qingyi also sat down and asked.

Qi Kexue was not surprised that he asked so, although he agreed without asking anything just now, it should be based on the cooperation of these days, for his trust, trust is one thing, but it is another thing to want to know the truth, with Tang Qingyi's character, he should not like someone to hide it from him, "King Tang is already suspicious of the prince, our arrangement is slowly working, but the prince is still sensible now, he can't rebel just because of King Tang's suspicion." ”

"Didn't you say you need to wait, and besides, what does this have to do with your going to the prince's family banquet?" Tang Qingyi listened to her words and couldn't help asking.

"Don't forget that I have also worked with the crown prince, and he also knows my abilities, I will definitely surprise him when I go to see him this time, especially when I appear with you, what do you think he will think?" Qi Kexue looked at Tang Qingyi with a smile, waiting for his answer.

Tang Qing also glanced at Qi Kexue, who was smiling like a fox, and couldn't help but say a little helplessly, "He will guess that the handle of the person I caught him at the beginning was provided by you, and even later you helped him was our conspiracy, and it is very likely that everything these days has something to do with me." ”

"My trick is called scaring the snake, the prince has really too many handles over the years, and it is not a trivial matter to take out a random one, he will be afraid, he will be afraid that I still have evidence about him in my hand, and the previous incident has already greatly damaged his strength.

In addition, now Tang Wang himself has doubts about him, which will make him even more frightened, he himself is not a righteous gentleman, and when he thinks about others, he will definitely not think in a good direction, so when he sees that I have cooperated with you, this frightened bird will definitely take action. Qi Kexue explained with a smile.

Hearing her words, Tang Qing was not only not happy, but was a little disappointed, which may not even be known to him, and couldn't help but say disdainfully, "You are not a decent gentleman in the first place. ”

"Yes, I'm not a gentleman, I'm a woman, Kong Du said that only women and villains are difficult to raise, what kind of gentleman do I pretend, don't offend me, you must know that it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, and the villain takes revenge day and night." Qi Kexue was not angry at all at his words, but felt that it was normal.

Tang Qingyi was amused by her, "Then you have to go with me just for this?" ”

"Then what else can I do for it, is it possible to be fascinated by the prince's demeanor, and take this opportunity to be the prince's woman in the name of the prince?" Qi Kexue said jokingly.

"It's not that this possibility is impossible, this king still has this bit of confidence." Maybe Qi Kexue didn't expect Tang Qingyi to follow her joke.

Qi Kexue was stunned for a moment, and then looked at him with a smile, "It turns out that you can also joke, I always thought that you would only scold people with a straight face every day." ”

"Don't talk nonsense with your eyes open, when have I scolded you, although I have a black face to you every day, but when have you been afraid, it's not that the darker my face is, the more ruthless you are, and I almost didn't scold you back." Tang Qingyi couldn't help but speak when he heard this, thought about it and looked at her again, "If you do this, you won't be afraid that the prince will turn the target to you, you must know that he is not a gentleman, but he can make any moves." ”

"What's so scary, if you have the ability, let the horse come, and then the deer will die is not certain." Qi Kexue said disdainfully.

Tang Qingyi stood up after hearing this, "Okay, since you're not afraid, then I have nothing to be afraid of, let's go together if you want to." ”

The prince's birthday is not as big as in the past, if it is usual, the prince will definitely recruit all the people under him, on the one hand, to win the hearts of the people, on the other hand, but also to show several princes their strength, but this year is different from the past, the court is surging, and the mind of King Tang can not guess.

This made the prince have some scruples, so he only held a family banquet, and only invited a few brothers, so that no matter who he was, he couldn't say anything.

What Qi Kexue wants is to add fire to him at this time, his heart is disturbed, then he will make some moves, and the preparations he made before will move.

But she thought so, but Shen Boling was dissatisfied, "Do you really want to go to the family banquet with Tang Qingyi?" ”

"Didn't I already tell you, I'm not going to play, it's my consideration." Qi Kexue couldn't help but explain when she heard this, feeling a little helpless, since he heard that she was going to show up with Tang Qingyi, there was not a day when his face was not black.

"I know what you mean by going this time, but we have other ways, it's too easy to make the prince mess up, and I don't need you to stand outside." Shen Boling didn't believe her explanation.

Qi Kexue sat down helplessly and looked at him, "Boling, I've been behind the scenes long enough, I need to come to the front of the stage, and now is the best opportunity." ”

"You want to borrow Tang Qingyi's momentum?" Shen Boling was not stupid, and immediately understood what she meant.

Qi Kexue nodded, "You're right, you want to borrow his momentum, since he is our collaborator, then we have to use it to the end, with him in front, our future development will be much easier, many things have changed from dark to light, do you know why the business of the imperial merchant is so good?" ”

"Hey, I knew I couldn't talk about you." Shen Boling sighed helplessly, "I don't care about any of this, I just know that if you really go to lie down with him, then everyone will think that you are his Tang Qingyi's woman, and you are a woman who follows him without a name or a share." ”

"I don't care about these things outside of my body." Qi Kexue shook her head indifferently.

"How can you not care, whether men and women understand or not, if you are misunderstood, then if you marry someone else in the future, you will be seen by others, and you will be labeled as Tang Qingyi in this life." Shen Boling couldn't help but change his face.

Qi Kexue laughed suddenly, "This is nothing compared to someone who has already been married once, besides, do you think there will be a man in this world who wants to marry me?" ”

"Why not?" Shen Boling said subconsciously, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he felt that something was wrong, and his face became embarrassed, "I... I mean, you don't have to think about the past all the time, people always have to look forward, how can a good girl like you be liked by no one. ”

Qi Kexue shook her head with a smile, "Forget it, don't talk about it, but you really don't have to worry about me, Tang Qingyi and I are just a cooperative relationship, maybe it will still be this relationship for a long time in the future, even if you don't misunderstand now, you will also misunderstand in the future."

And when I lived in his palace, I knew that there would be such a consequence now, but even if it was a misunderstanding, it would be difficult for us to explain one by one that I just helped him take the throne and did not go to his bed, will anyone believe it? ”

Shen Boling was stunned, maybe he didn't expect her to say such a thing, and looked at her with a wry smile.

"So you don't have to worry about these things in the future, as for whether to marry or not, it will be too long later." Qi Kexue patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile, looking at Shen Boling, who was frightened by himself, he couldn't help but wonder, it seems that there was a generation gap between the two before.

Shen Boling came back to his senses and looked at her, but he didn't understand why she obviously had a smile on her face, but it always made him feel a little bitter, thinking of what he had just said, he didn't know where he got the courage, and suddenly said, "Xue'er, if you are willing to marry one day, I am willing to be the one who marries you, I don't care about your past, I don't care about your present, and I can not marry other women for you." ”

This time it was Qi Kexue's turn to be dumbfounded, although she had always known that Shen Boling seemed to have a different feeling for her, but no one had pierced this layer of window paper, and he said it at this time, which made it impossible for her to pretend to be stupid anymore, looking at the determined Shen Boling, she opened her mouth but couldn't say anything.

Shen Boling actually said these words, but also with the courage of the moment, if he said it again, he might not have the courage, but at this time, he did not feel regret at all, but was much more relaxed, looked at Qi Kexue, although a little embarrassed, but still said, "You don't have to say anything in a hurry, I know you don't like me, and you never thought you would be with me, I just said this to tell you what I think in my heart, and I don't want to get anything in return from you, I just want to tell you that if one day, If you are tired and tired of walking alone, then I am a place you can rely on. ”

Qi Kexue listened, her heart was sour, and she turned her head to prevent him from seeing the red circles under her eyes, she didn't remember how many years she hadn't felt like crying, and it was the first time she was moved by a man to want to cry, but she could only say softly, "Thank you." ”

"I'd rather you say thank you than thank you." Shen Boling shook his head with a wry smile, but immediately continued, "You don't have any burden, I'm not doing this to force you to make any choices, I just want you to know that no matter what you do, I will support you." ”

Qi Kexue nodded, stepped forward, hugged him gently, and rested his head on his shoulder, Shen Boling was stunned, then understood what she meant, sighed, but also hugged the other party tighter, he knew that Qi Kexue told himself in this way that the two could only be friends.
