Xia Yunshang nodded, followed Shangguan Jinqi out of the secret room, looking at the slowly closing door, Xia Yunsheng felt a little sad in her heart, the royal was ruthless, but such an expectation, such a desire, is the bright royal chair really so attractive?

Xia Yunshang was silent, Shangguan Jinqi didn't care, raised her right hand lightly, made a gesture of please, and accompanied Xia Yunshang to the outside of Zhilan Hall, Xia Yunshang suddenly paused, looked at Zhilan Hall, and then looked at Shangguan Jinqi in front of her, and asked a little uncertainly, "Third Emperor Brother?" ”

"Don't worry," Shangguan Jinqi said coldly, "The conversation of several young ladies is not enough to cost the secret room. ”

Xia Yunsheng's heart that she had just put down was depressed by the words behind her, what do you mean? It's one thing to worry about being spied on, but it's another thing to be said that it's not important, but there are all young ladies in this Zhilan Hall, not to mention that there is a princess and a tiger talisman in her hand. Dissatisfied, very dissatisfied

"Of course, the conversation of several of our close friends is also unwilling to be cared about." Xia Yunshang said with a smile, ignored him, opened the door directly into the hall, and closed the door with a bang's backhand. Shangguan Jinqi looked at the carved door close at hand, touched her nose, sighed slightly and turned back to the Cuizhu Hall.

"Self-destruction of the city wall, that's what it says." Xie Jianxiong leaned back on the Taishi's chair, holding a tea cup in his hand, and shook his head as he spoke.

Xue Nan looked at Shangguan Jinqi, who had a dark face, and asked, "Is this good?" ”

"Hey, how many bad things can Jinqi decide?" Xie Jianxiong shrugged

"What? Xie Jiayao is next door, do you want to invite her over? ”

"Don't" Xie Jianxiong hurriedly said, and hurriedly sat up straight, "Aren't I in a hurry?" It's okay, it's okay, let's discuss it? ”

Xue Nan looked at Xie Jianxiong and shook his head with a smile, Xie Jianxiong is not afraid of heaven and earth, and his father and mother can't care about it, he is afraid of his own sister, and when his sister frowns, he will be out of luck.

Shangguan Jinqi ignored Xie Jianxiong, looked at Xue Nan and asked, "How is this trip to Luzhou?" ”

"There's a big problem." Xue Nan said, "It has been two months since the flood in Luzhou, but the silver taels for disaster relief have not been in place for a long time, and the government has colluded with profiteers to raise the price of rice. Now the flood is still not under control, once the dam bursts the embankment is even more unimaginable, and the Luzhou officials actually mobilized the affected people to repair the embankment at this time, and their own government soldiers are resting on the side, not to mention working for a long time, let alone caring for themselves, and they are also disaster victims, and they can't take care of their families, which makes the people's grievances boiling. ”

"Hmph, I don't think the prefect of Luzhou wants to do it." Chien-shiung Tse

Xue Nan looked at Shangguan Jinqi, who had an iron-colored face, and said, "I'm afraid that the fiefdom of the five princes in Luzhou is ......."

Xie Jianxiong Weileng, the fief of the five princes? Shangguan Jinqi has always been at odds with the second prince Shangguan Jinrong, if she offends the fifth prince Shangguan Jinmo again, then Jinqi's enemies seem to be a bit too much, this is ......

Xie Jianxiong looked at Shangguan Jinqi hesitantly, only to see Shangguan Jinqi ask unhurriedly, "Has Brother Nan ever faced the saint when he came back?" ”

"I haven't faced the saint yet." Xue Nan returned

"I will report the disaster and don't mention anything else." Shangguan Jinqi said

"Don't mention it? What about the people of Luzhou? Xie Jianxiong said with wide eyes.

Xue Nan nodded and said, "That's what I mean." ”

"Huh? What do you two think! ”

Shangguan Jinqi said: "My father only ordered the investigation of the disaster, but did not say anything to verify whether there was corruption or malpractice. Brother Nan's report will only make his father feel that Brother Nan has selfishness. ”

Xie Jianxiong sighed and said, "Then it doesn't matter?" ”

"Of course you have to take care of it," Shangguan Jinqi said, "In the land of Naiyu and rice in Luzhou, there is a flood and the damage is serious, and my father will pay attention to it, but Brother Guangnan can't do it, and he will definitely send his cronies to check it out." I believe there will be more evidence when the time comes. ”

Xie Jianxiong nodded suspiciously, this royal disciple is really, hey, father and son, father and son. Xue Nan picked up the teacup in front of him, tasted it slightly, and said, "Well, I understand, there have been important things in the capital in the past two months?" ”

As soon as he said this, Xie Jianxiong became energetic, "A month ago, Bai Hongyu, the third prince of the Liao State, quietly entered Beijing, and he still brought a baby, guess what?" ”

Xue Nan raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at Xie Jianxiong who was looking forward to it and said, "Bai Hongyu entered Beijing? ”

"yes, guess." Xie Jianxiong looked at Xue Nan and blinked. Xue Nan glanced at Shangguan Jinqi, who was concentrating on drinking tea, and said, "Is it about to start?" ”

Shangguan Jinqi slowly put down the teacup, raised her eyes to Xue Nan and said, "It's already started." ”

"What did you bring with you the documents of the Liao territory?" Xue Nan looked at Xie Jianxiong and said

When Xie Jianxiong heard this, he sighed, leaned on the back of the chair scatteredly, and said boringly: "Hey, it's so boring, Brother Nan is really boring, one is like this, and the two are still like this, I will go to Chu Xiuwen next time to play." ”

Xue Nan shook his head with a smile and said, "Why am I not happy if I guessed it?" ”

"I'm not happy, it's so boring, how can I guess it right as soon as I guess it, Brother Nan, can you teach me the ability to pinch and calculate." Xie Jianxiong sat up straight and looked at Xue Nan with a smile on his face.

Shangguan Jinqi said slowly: "Brother Nan just guessed the item, not the quantity." ”

When Xie Jianxiong heard this, he immediately said: "Yes, yes, Brother Nan guess." ”

"Bai Hongyu's status in the Liao State is not low, and he is fighting against the crown prince, and even more sacred, he wants to have a lot of real power, this time he came privately to show his sincerity, three cities?" Xue Nan said thoughtfully

Shangguan Jinqi nodded and said, "Exactly"

"Taken it all?" Xue Nan asked

"That's, don't look at who made it!" Xie Jianxiong said proudly, "Jinqi also picked up other treasures." After speaking, he squeezed his eyebrows at Xue Nan, with an expression of guessing.

Shangguan Jinqi cleared her throat and said, "It's all taken back, but I don't know who to trade with or what to promise." Shangguan Jinqi said with a frown as she played with the teacup in her hand.

"Have you checked?" Xue Nan asked

"I didn't find out, those people are really hard-mouthed, too frustrated." Xie Jianxiong shook his head and said, quite helpless, he used all the methods, but he didn't ask, and he got angry when he thought about it.

"If you think about it, those must be dead soldiers, it's normal if you don't ask, don't mind" Xue Nan thought for a while and said, "Does the emperor know?" ”

"I have informed my father, but because I have not obtained accurate evidence, I can't tell who Bai Hongyu is here for. So I put it down. Shangguan Jinqi returned

"Not only that, but this Bai Hongyu also had the courage to tell the emperor that he had lost his valuable belongings, and asked the emperor to send someone to help find it." Xie Jiayao said disdainfully

"Who did the emperor arrange?"

"Second Emperor Brother"

"The emperor suspects Shangguan Jinrong?"

"I don't think so." Shangguan Jinqi said coldly, who can my father trust in this life, it is nothing more than that person, "It's just a temptation." ”

"Hmm" Xue Nan took a sip of tea and said, "The Sacred Heart is unpredictable, and Jinqi must be careful when acting." Chien-shiung is too, they are all children of the family, and their words and deeds are deeply involved. ”

"Don't worry, they won't notice me, okay, I'll go find Xiuwen." Saying that, he waved his hand, didn't leave the door, and went straight out of the window.

"Really." Xue Nan shook his head with a smile, then looked at Shangguan Jinqi and said, "Is she in danger?" ”

Shangguan Jinqi frowned and nodded.

"And how are you?"

"Of all of us, you are the most thorough and understand my mind the best."

"The road ahead is dangerous, if you don't send her out of such a circle, then the best thing is under your protection, I think you understand what I said."

Shangguan Jinqi saw a scene on the South Lake in front of her eyes, only to feel that her heart was still clenched by a pair of invisible big hands, she was out of breath in panic, her body was tense without obeying the call, and she couldn't turn around when she needed to leave immediately.

One second, two seconds, time passed little by little, the lake was in chaos, but there was no shadow of her, he panicked, completely panicked, the original calmness shattered, regardless of jumping into the cool water, desperately swimming towards the center of the lake, for fear that he would never see her smiling face again if he was a second late. Fortunately, she is fine, fortunately she is safe.

Xue Nan looked at Shangguan Jinqi, who was stunned, and only felt that one thing was the most hurtful, and sighed secretly.

Zhilan Hall

"Yunshang, you're back." Xie Jiayao said vaguely while eating the pastry

"I'm sorry, everyone is hungry," Xia Yunshang said apologetically

"Is it uncomfortable? Went for so long. Zhen Linyi asked thoughtfully.

"It's okay, it's just that I was greedy for cold yesterday and ate more ice." Xia Yunshang said shyly.

"Hehe, a few days ago, Linxuan also said about me, Linxuan, you see, Yunshang also loves to eat." Xie Jiayao said with a wicked smile

"It's better to eat less of this ice, it's a shame." Xue Xueru said.

"Yes, she is taught." Xia Yunshang said with a smile.

"Alright, let's eat quickly, or it won't be good if it's cold." Zhen Linyi said

The "good" people happily found their positions, and they all said that they didn't say anything about food and sleep. Several people are the daughters of everyone, and they have strict etiquette since childhood, and they only hear the sound of sleeves shuttling and crisp dishes and chopsticks during the banquet. After use, your personal maid will send fragrant tea to rinse your mouth, and then change the handkerchief to wipe your hands.

"Is there a temple fair today?" Xue Xueru asked

"Yes, today on the fifteenth, how about we go back after visiting the temple fair?" Xie Jiayao said happily.

"It's so good, I also steal half a day's leisure." Zhen Linyi said with a smile, since she got married, all the matters in the Ningguo Marquis Mansion have been controlled by herself and Mrs. Wang, and Mrs. Wang also really values Zhen Linyi, and the monthly silver, procurement, and personnel appointment and dismissal in the mansion are all handed over to Zhen Linyi to deal with the arrangements, and she only takes care of her own courtyard, but if it is not for Zhen Linyi to ask for advice, she will not interfere too much. And after giving birth to Junxi, he has no leisure. Today's small gathering, I only feel like I have returned to the worry-free life before marriage.

"Okay, I haven't been to the temple fair for a long time." Xia Yunshang said with a smile, this temple fair in the previous life, hey.
