Chapter 54: Qi Xi's Temptation
accompanied by Wang Yu, but Qi Xi praised her first, which made Zhong Qin can't help but ring the alarm bell.
Zhong Qin's mind turned back and forth, and he arched his hand indifferently: "The three princes have praised it falsely, and the minister's literary style is less than that of the three princes, and he doesn't dare to get an axe." ”
was complimented, Qi Xi was not only not arrogant and arrogant, but the meaning in his eyes was deeper.
"Lord Shilang is humble, there are people outside the sky, and I heard Yu Xiao say some time ago that I want to ask Lord Shilang to pass the Pingnan Wangfu with a sub-couplet."
Qi Xi said word by word, and the metaphorical meaning in his words was intriguing.
Obviously, what Qi Xi revealed was even more of a joke with temptation, like a poison piercing the intestines, if he was not careful, he would never recover.
Although he never knew how well Qi Xi and Qi Yuxiao had done on the face, Zhong Qin didn't dare to be careless, and said with a light smile: "The matter of writing couplets in the inscription is just a joke by the prince to promote the ministers, and the ministers are small and small, which can compare to many talents in the capital." ”
Zhong Qin's words were clever, not only admitting the matter without pretentiousness, but also avoiding Qi Xi's temptation.
Qi Xi obviously didn't want to let Zhong Qin go like this, so he seemed to be smiling: "I heard that in Nanyin City, Lord Shilang had a good relationship with Yuxiao, and even his favorite singer was sent to Lord Shilang." ”
"Although he is a cousin, His Royal Highness knows Yu Xiao's temperament best, and the person who can make him so acquainted with is extraordinary."
Zhong Qin twisted his eyebrows, Qi Xi even knew about Wen Huai, and it was obvious that he had sent someone to check her.
His head ached faintly, and Zhong Qin pretended to be embarrassed: "My Fair Lady, a gentleman, although Wen Huai is a singer, she is a rare beauty, and the minister will never forget it when she first sees it." ”
Qi Xi didn't say whether he believed it or not, but sighed and sighed: "Yes, thinking back then, Miss Wenhuai was hard to find in the capital, but in the end, she was still accepted by Yuxiao in the mansion, which made people can't see it." ”
Although the two were just greeting each other, the atmosphere was really strange.
Wang Yu observed the words and looks, and his eyesight was naturally not bad, and he noticed that there was a little mismatch between the two people, so he hurriedly spoke.
"I don't know if the third prince and Princess Tong'er Ya want to go back to the palace? Now it is the height of summer, if you can take a boat on Huansha Lake, you will definitely have a unique charm. ”
"Really?" As smart as Erya, he quickly guessed Wang Yu's intentions, and his eyes flowed: "It's hard to get out of the palace, why don't you take Erya to see it?" ”
Erya was full of a light smile, and it was even more wonderful under this bright sun, with beautiful eyes, and I didn't know how many heroes had fallen.
As if nothing had happened, Qi Xi responded happily: "It's okay." ”
There was less tension in the air, Er Yali was blessed with a few thoughtful blessings, his eyes looked at Wang Yu, and his voice was tactful and melodious: "The two adults have something to do with Xiangye, and Erya and the imperial brother will not bother." ”
"Congratulations to the third prince and Princess Erya." Wang Yu didn't think much about it, and Zhong Qin followed him with a gentle and jade-like approach.
Secretly relieved, the smile on Zhong Qin's face became a little more real, and Wang Yu followed the little servant towards the hall.
In addition to the two of them, there were also some newly canonized officials in the hall, flattering Xiao Quan, who had a serious face on the throne.
Looking at this occasion, Zhong Qin was a little disappointed, it seemed that it was impossible to say anything today, so he had to find another day......
As soon as the canonization was completed and the relevant formalities were completed, Zhong Qin became a member of the imperial court in the true sense.
On the Jinluan Palace, as a few days ago, Zhong Qin stood on top of the court without humility or arrogance, looking at his nose and nose, without showing any superfluous emotions on his face, trying to reduce his sense of existence.
"The emperor has arrived!" The eunuch pulled the duck's throat.
When the emperor stepped into the court, everyone knelt down neatly: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”
"Flat."
The ministers stood up.
Emperor Qi inquired about various local affairs and the situation of the frontier as usual, and then glanced around the lower hall.
Zhong Qin, who was in the back, just met the gaze of the Qi Emperor Eagle Falcon, his eyelids jumped.
Emperor Qi's gaze finally shrouded the body of the Ministry of Rites, and he slowly spoke, his words full of majesty: "Zhao sent someone to send a letter yesterday, Yongwang Yuwenyou will make my dynasty in the future, and it will arrive tomorrow." ”
Yu Wenyou......
Hearing this name at first, Zhong Qin's heart beat two seconds faster, and his face changed slightly.
It's over, now she is the head of the Ministry of Rites of Qi State, if Yu Wenyou exposes her identity as a woman disguised as a man, wouldn't she commit the crime of bullying the king?
The crime of bullying the king, that is to connect the nine clans!
The only way now is to avoid any possibility of colliding with Yuwenyou, even if he may not remember her anymore!
As soon as Zhong Qin made up his mind, he listened to Emperor Qi's strong voice: "The envoy of Zhao State is visiting, I need to send an Aiqing to come forward to receive him, the Ministry of Rites is still the book, who do you think can take on this great responsibility in the Ministry of Rites?" ”
When it came to the Ministry of Rites, almost everyone couldn't help but turn their attention to the newly promoted official Zhong Qin.
Zhong Qin's heart beat faster, and he couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into.
The Ministry of Rites Shangshu took a step outside and said respectfully: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister feels that although the squire Liu Qi has just taken office, his performance in the imperial examination is obvious to all, so the minister recommends Liu Qi!" ”
"Oh?" Emperor Qi raised his eyebrows: "Where is the waiter of the Ministry of Rites?" ”
There were countless eyes on his body, no matter how unwilling Zhong Qin was, he had no choice but to walk out with a numb scalp: "The minister is here." ”
Emperor Qi knew a thing or two about Zhong Qin's rescue of Wang Yu in the city, and also held a shock banquet for the two of them, although the matter was finally over, and Dali Siqing judged that the horse had eaten the wrong thing after investigation.
sighed in his heart that a hero from ancient times was a young man, and Emperor Qi solemnly spoke: "Since this is the case, I will order Liu Qi, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, to receive King Yong." ”
"The minister must live up to expectations." Zhong Qin knelt down and felt the complicated and different eyes of the people around him.
Some were envious that Zhong Qin could get such a good errand, and some secretly prayed for Zhong Qin, the newly appointed waiter of the Ministry of Rites.
How could Zhong Qin not know in his heart? She sighed to herself.
Wei and Lu stationed troops on the border of Zhao State, and the atmosphere between the two armies has been drawn with swords and crossbows, and there is a tendency and atmosphere to start a war if they do not agree with each other.
But if there is a war, not to mention the casualties caused by the war, the entire Zhao State will also be in turmoil up and down, and millions of people will become refugees wandering around, and the slightest carelessness will become the funeral objects of the war between Wei and Lu.
Come to think of it, this is the reason why Zhao Guoguo sent Yu Wenyou to ask for help, right?
As soon as the matter of receiving the envoys passed, a few more small matters were discussed in the court, and he withdrew from the court.
After leaving the palace, Zhong Qin did not have the leisurely time of going down to the court a few days ago, and rushed to the Ministry of Rites to prepare for the greeting, and his mood was extremely irritable.
Now she only pleads, Yuwen Youri is so busy that she has long forgotten about her little person!
