"Stop rubbing your eyes, real person." Qi Qingchu slowly stood up, and then walked towards Li Jicai.

There was a smile on his face.

Li Jicai looked at his expression, inexplicably a little nervous, his face was hot, and his back was like a man.

It turned out that the foreboding just now came true so quickly.

This Qi Qingchu's action was inevitably too fast, right? She had only found out about it in the morning.

That's right, after all, this incident happened in the capital. She's definitely going to be late outside the city.

"I didn't do that, I didn't know it from beginning to end! I just found out this morning. Li Jicai said it, but he still covered his head in shame.

It's embarrassing.

I don't know why, but there is always a feeling of being caught in bed. Yes, she's in bed now.

Ahh......hh

What to do?

Is there anything that can be blocked for her, she is a little unable to face Qi Qingchu directly.

"Huh? Which thing? ”

Not long after, Qi Qingchu had already walked to Li Jicai's side and sat on the side of her bed.

Li Jicai hurriedly shrank back a lot, tripped over the quilt, and almost rolled over.

"Huh? Don't adults know? Li Jicai's heart was full of suspicion, if he hadn't heard that thing, how could Qi Qingchu suddenly come over at night?

Normally, if there are no accidents, he will not come.

"Should I know?" Qi Qingchu's tone was very low, so that people couldn't hear the joy and anger.

But this caused a greater sense of oppression to Li Jicai, and the temperature next to him seemed to drop a few points, and now Li Jicai did not feel like a mang on his back, but cold sweat was dripping.

"Well, I don't know about this."

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

"Jiang Xihu said that he wanted to help me find a husband's family, I really didn't agree to this, and I asked my maid to go to the capital to tell him about it this morning."

Li Jicai explained honestly, he didn't know where to pick his fingers, and a strand of hair fell down and stuck to his face, itching.

But Li Jicai didn't dare to go and took it down.

"Oh? You say you don't know? ”

"I really don't know, if I knew, I wouldn't let my maid go to the capital."

"So, seeing that you are indeed not young, it is time to find a husband."

"This, don't dare, don't dare. I'm still young, so I don't want to talk about it for the time being. Li Jicai hurriedly waved his hand.

Just kidding, she didn't promise Qi Qingchu, how could she find a husband for some reason.

Isn't this a clear slap in the face of Qi Qingchu?

However, what is a little embarrassing is that she is still very weak in her heart, and it is clear that this matter is not her fault at all, why it seems to be her problem at the time.

"Go inside."

"Huh? Mmmm" Li Jicai was a little dumbfounded when he heard Qi Qingchu's request, but immediately rolled inside again.

After Qi Qing saw that the position he had given up was almost over, he bent down to take off his boots, then flicked the hem and turned over to get on the bed.

"My lord, this is my bed, this is my bed, and it is a little inappropriate for you to sleep, right?"

Li Jicai stumbled and said, why did Qi Qingchu drill into her bed again? Can you still behave like a gentleman?

"I'm very tired from running all the way here, why can't you give me a rest for a while?"

"No, no, no, that's not what I said, since the adults are tired, then let's rest."

Li Jicai felt that he stretched out his head and shrunk his head, and it was not easy to speak.

Qi Qingchu, who was lying down, swept over with a very cool smell.

Fresh and pleasant is good, the unique cold man's breath, it is not an exaggeration to say that Li Jicai's heart is shaking.

Qi Qingchu patted the pillow and motioned for Li Jicai to lie down and lie down in the crook of his arm.

This is undoubtedly a bold invitation move, although Qi Qingchu also crossed the line in the past, but he grasped the restraint quite well, and he would not let Li Jicai completely resist.

What to do?

What else can I do? The strength is not as great as his, so let's listen to him obediently.

After thinking for a few seconds, Li Jicai did not hesitate, directly adjusted his posture, and also lay down together.

There are pillows, but there is an arm resting under the pillow, so why bother?

If she was numb by the pillow, would Qi Qing blame her in the end?

"What standard do you want? I heard people outside say that you have a very high vision, and ordinary men can't look down on you. ”

"No, it must have been spread by someone outside, it's not like that, how can I have such high requirements, besides, even if I'm picky, the other party must be able to look at me."

Li Jicai, who was lying down, felt that his mood was much calmer, and it seemed that Qi Qingchu didn't seem to be going to do anything to her, so he relaxed a little.

The two of them lay on the same bed and began to chat leisurely.

"Hmm."

“…… Is this what you're here for? Li Jicai hesitated for a moment, and then asked tentatively.

"Not exactly."

"What do you mean by that?"

"What have you been up to lately?" Qi Qingchu didn't directly say the purpose of his coming here, but asked from a different angle.

"No, it's just dealing with those farmers, it's just busy with those agricultural injuries, and there's nothing else to do."

Li Jicai also muttered in his heart, is it possible, is it possible that what he did has been discovered?

But his approach is actually just a small fight, probably not, won't it?

"You...... No matter what you do, you have to think twice, some things can be done, some things can't be done, don't leave a handle on people, even Jiang Xihu may not be able to protect you when the time comes. ”

"No, what kind of dumb riddle are you playing? Don't let me know a little about it, okay? ”

"It's better not to move."

"Huh?"

"Some things can't be moved."

"What do you mean?" Li Jicai already vaguely sensed what Qi Qingchu wanted to say.

"Did you know about my commercial tax reform?"

"I heard a little about it, and I remember that I was still in business, and every time I paid taxes, it seemed to be accumulating, and the shop next to me was falling down a lot.

But I don't know why the price of our shop hasn't increased, and I later learned that it was you. “

"At that time, I was indeed presiding over the rectification of commercial taxes, but there was no follow-up, don't you want to know why?"

"It must be that His Majesty disagrees, otherwise what else can you say?" Li Jicai glanced at Qi Qingchu and said.

"That's true, at first he agreed with it at first, but then he moved something that shouldn't be moved, so that it couldn't go on anymore."

"Adults don't look like people who give up easily, why?"

"If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have shared so much of my heart."

"Can I be blamed for this?" Because she distracted him? That sounds a bit exciting.

"In short, you can find another way, and you have to grasp the scale yourself."

"I am a good citizen, and it must be something that benefits the country and the people, how can I do bad things."

"It's good for you to think like that, but not necessarily in the eyes of other people."

"Thank you for your kindness, I know these things."

"If it's beyond your means, don't force yourself."

"I haven't done it yet, how do you know it's beyond my ability, if there are things I can't achieve, I can do it by relying on the strength of others, why don't I rely on it? How do you know I can't? I don't like people to see me. ”

"So that's why you're looking for a wealthy man as a husband? If you're looking for that high status, why not me? ”

“…… What the hell have you heard? That's why I thought so, I said that this is not the case, and I didn't say that I was looking for any noble family. ”

"Lord Li's family has made it clear that although your status is that of a concubine, you have received the gift of Your Majesty and the relationship with the four princes here, so you ......"

"So you think the whole thing was something I discussed with Jiang Xihu, right?"

"Don't call His Royal Highness by name."

"I've been calling him for so long, and he hasn't done anything to me."

"So you can be lawless?"

"I'm not lawless, what the hell do you want to say? Why does it make me feel yin and yang? ”

"Nothing." Qi Qingchu's words were a little weak, like a little sullen.

Li Jicai was also a little impatient, so plausible and usually he was far behind.

"Can't you just say what you can't just say? Can you just say yes? There are some things that don't need to be concealed and hidden, I am most annoyed that you ancients are like this, is there anything that can't be told frankly? What has to be hidden? ”

"The ancients?"

“…… It's the one who eats the ancients! Li Jicai's flashes of light and flint came to mind this word in a flash.

"......" Qi Qingchu was silent for a while, and then turned around with his flat body, just facing Li Jicai.

Li Jicai also leaned sideways, bowing into the shape of a shrimp, which could make her guarded.

The candle flame was still shining, and after Qi Qingchu turned over, it blocked part of the candlelight, and Li Jicai's face was cast.

Qi Qingchu's eyes stared at Li Jicai without blinking, which made Li Jicai a little at a loss, and secretly wondered if he was too impatient just now, and he shouldn't speak in that tone.

Also, there was a status gap between her and Qi Qingchu, how could it be that even talking was neither big nor small.

Qi Qingchu is not a person who cares.

Li Jicai lowered his eyelids and didn't dare to look at him.

I don't know what he's going to say, what he's going to do, and I don't want to guess what's going on in his heart.

At first, the feeling of strangeness may come from not knowing each other, but after so long, I am already familiar with each other, but it feels even stranger.
