Chapter 10 Dignitaries of the Upper House
Childe Qingqian also looked at the soft heart who was kneeling in front of the bookcase and wanted to grind ink. The scene is so familiar, yet unfamiliar. Shouldn't I have sent her?
"Ahem, ahem!" Gongzi Jin coughed and walked in.
Rouxin put down the ink ingot and stood up to withdraw.
"Brew a new tea this year!" Gongzi Jinyan commanded.
"Yes!" Rouxin went out to get tea.
"I'm not here for tea today!" Childe looked at Childe Jin indifferently.
"My tea is not something anyone can afford!" Childe Jin sat on the left side of the tea table.
Rouxin brought the tea and boiled it carefully. The fragrance of tea is attractive, and the beauty is even more charming.
"Please!" Gongzi Jinqi stretched out his right hand.
Childe Qingqian has not forgotten that he was poisoned. But here, he didn't have that worry.
Even if Gongzi Jinqian wants his life very much, he will not poison him under the open and honest hands of his mansion.
Childe Kiyoshi sat on the right side of the tea table. If he wants to take Yao Tong, who grew up with him, he must agree to the conditions proposed by Gongzi Jinqi. As for what kind of conditions, it depends on Yao Tong's weight in Gongzi's shallow heart. This kind of weight, whether Gongzi Jinqi is accurate or not is the key.
Tea is good tea. Rouxin gently placed the teacup in front of Childe Qingqian. Her hands are as white and tender as lotus roots in the lotus pond, and people can't help but pinch them.
Childe Qingqian slowly reached out and picked up the teacup, blew it gently, and then took a sip slowly.
"Say it! What conditions? Childe's shallow eyelids were still lowered, and his gaze moved from Rouxin's hand to his teacup.
"This year's tribute will give up three points!" Gongzi Jinqian picked up the tea and tasted it. The soft heart of the tea art is really good!
"One point!" Childe's shallow face was a little difficult to look at. Although Rouxin lowered her head, she could feel the chill on Gongzi Qingqian's body. She added tea to Childe Qingqian. Childe Kiyoshi didn't pick up the teacup.
"Two points!" Childe Jin Yan pinched a ladybug on the table with her hand. The ladybug sensed the danger and struggled to climb onto the inky blue embroidered robe of Childe Jin. Rouxin hurriedly reached out to catch the ladybug.
"Don't move! It's all up to the shallow son. Gongzi Jinyan smiled rarely. Rouxin's eyes were a little stupid.
Childe's shallow heart was already a little impatient, although his face was still calm, and he couldn't see a trace of waves. However, the soft eyes could not escape his eyes. A touch of anger flashed in Childe's shallow eyes.
"Five points in one!" Childe Qingqian gritted his teeth and said.
"Good! Deal! Maple Flame! Lead the shallow son to lead people! "Gongzi Jin's goal has been achieved, and he doesn't want to talk to Gongzi Qingqian anymore. As the saying goes, the Tao is different, and it is not the same!
Childe Qingqian went with Feng Yan. Rouxin's gaze followed Childe Qingqian to the door.
"What? Reluctant? Gongzi Jin's words were full of vinegar.
"Childe smiled! I'm going to change the tea! "After all, Rouxin has learned a lot in Neon Garden.
"It's time for a change!" Childe Jin poured out the tea in the teacup with satisfaction.
Rouxin walked out of Gongzi Jin's study, and happened to see Gongzi Qingqian holding Yao Tong with one hand and turning out from behind the rockery in the distance.
Yao Tong must have suffered a lot! Rouxin's eyes were a little sour. OK! Childe Qingqian didn't give up on him! Rouxin secretly rejoiced for Yao Tong.
In that chaotic era of fierce power struggle, human life was like a mustard. Especially people like Yao Tong and Rouxin, if they lose their use value, they may not be as valuable as a horse.
However, no matter how cold the blood is, people also have their own hot side. Love has no beginning, and there is no trace.
Yao Tong is indeed worse than dead in the dungeon. He thought he wouldn't be able to stand it for a few days. He didn't expect his son-in-law to really come to save him.
The moment Yao Tong saw Gongzi Qingqian, he saw his kung fu with a bag of cigarettes. Then, he knelt down and kowtowed to Gongzi.
Gongzi Qingqian looked at Yao Tong, who was almost unrecognizable, and was stunned for a long time.
Childe Qingqian got into the carriage. Yao Tong sat next to the coachman. Hanguang rode on a horse and looked at the tortured Yao Tong, and felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. Good thing I escaped! He tightened his grip on the reins.
Hanguang is wise not to be restrained. Otherwise, he and Yao Tong would only be able to live alone!
Hanguang's gaze moved to Childe's shallow car window. He could vaguely see the shallow outline of Childe from inside the gauze curtain.
If I were caught, would he save me? The light turned to the street.
Childe Qingqian sat in his carriage and felt some discomfort in his head. A tiredness that had never been felt before came over him.
The carriage drove into the backyard of Childe Kiyosa's mansion. Hanguang got off the horse and helped Yao Tong out of the carriage.
Childe got out of the carriage and went directly to Xuanfei. He felt like he was really sick this time.
Xuanfei diagnosed Childe's pulse and then prescribed him medicine.
"What's wrong with me?" Childe Qingqian seemed to ask Xuanfei, and it also seemed to ask himself.
"You need to rest in bed for a while!" Xuanfei gave the prescription to the inner guard Liu Tao.
Childe Qingqian really began to recuperate in bed. The third prince couldn't sit still.
Competition for this year's tribute is fierce. The third prince has been in charge of this matter. In the past, there was a young man who was shallow, and everything went well. But now the son is shallow and sick. The third prince was already a little overwhelmed.
"Childe! The Three Princes are here! Yao Tong came to Gongzi's shallow couch and saluted.
Childe Qingqian did not open his eyes. The third prince had already walked in. He saw Childe lying quietly on the bed, so he sat down on the stool next to the bed silently.
"How's the matter with the tribute?" Gongzi Qingqian opened his eyes slightly and wanted to get up, but was held down by the third prince.
"You lie down first!" The third prince felt that Gongzi Qingqian must be very sick, otherwise he would definitely not be lying in bed at this juncture.
"The rights and interests of silk and tea must not fall into the hands of others! Just put a little bit of the rest! Childe coughed as he spoke. He is really sick this time, it's a heart disease!
"You mean...... "The third prince was a little confused. In the past, Childe's shallow proposition was to control all the merchants who paid tribute, and never give others a chance to take advantage of it.
"We have been controlling these yellow merchants for many years. This fat difference will make many people red-eyed. Inevitably, something will reach the top! So, this year we're going to give up one or two points of profit. Everyone has eaten the benefits, and no one will ......" Childe coughed again.
The three princes have never had any opinions. He saw that Gongzi Qingqian had said this, so he went back to do it.
Childe Qingqian didn't expect that this matter really made him right.
As soon as the tribute bidding was over, the emperor summoned the three princes. The three princes presented this year's list to the emperor. After the emperor read it carefully, he asked the third prince to go back without saying anything.
The third prince felt that this matter was quite strange, and when he left the palace gate, he went straight to Zhuyang Town.
