Chapter 123: The prince is small
The listener interjected and asked, "Steward Qin, this person's surname is Xia and he can enter the palace, and he is also a clan?" ”
"Back to the master's mother, Xia Chengqiu is a side branch of the clan, and his grandfather is just a baron of Zhengwupin County. Now in the summer solstice and autumn, he is a county magistrate in a small county, and he came to visit this time to find the prince to catch up. Qin Er replied.
Xia Yiyu snorted: "When this king is down, no one cares, and when he is brilliant, distant relatives come to visit, if you don't come in the cold winter, who are you in the spring?" ”
Xie Yufei said: "Lord, this is human nature, you met friends when you were brilliant, and friends met you when you were down." Prince, others forget you when you don't have ambition, and don't forget yourself when you have ambition. ”
"Well said, Yu Fei is the friend he met when the king was down, and it is also Yu Fei who helped the king reach a brilliant state, Yu Fei can rest assured, this king will not be complacent." Someone said excitedly, and slapped the thigh.
He slapped his thigh, so that everyone's eyes in the hall were focused on him, and they all wanted to ask; Lord, are you in pain?
It was the calmness after this beat that gave Steward Qin a chance to interject: "Lord, it's not the first time that Xia Zhiqiu comes back to visit, this is the third time, he came when the prince got married, but the prince was with the two princes at that time, and he couldn't talk to the prince." He also came to visit the next year, but the prince was in a bad mood and didn't see him at that time. ”
Steward Qin lamented, the first time you came to congratulate your relatives, you ignored him, and the second time you visited, the prince was arguing with the princess and didn't pay attention to him, and now he has forgotten all about him.
Xie Yufei teased: "Lord Wang, it turns out that he has always remembered you, and it was you who forgot him and slandered him with a bad conscience." ”
Xia Yiyu's face was slightly embarrassed: "Then according to what you say, he is really not a villain who tends to be inflammatory, but a person with affection and righteousness, even if this is the case, this king is interested in seeing it, Qin Er, you go to the next post, this king invites him to meet in the evening." ”
"Lord Wang, where do you invite?" Qin Er asked.
Xia Yiyu said: "You choose a better place yourself." ”
"The old slave understands, lord, there is one more thing, when the old slave went out of the house, he found that someone was following him, but he had been dumped by the old slave, so the old slave dared to come to the master's mother." Qin Er said.
Qin Er didn't point out who was following her, but that was taking into account Xie Yufei's face, and the mention of it directly embarrassed her, after all, she was not the identity of the main room.
"Got it, step down!" Xia Yiyu was not happy to hear this.
Xie Yufei didn't seem to hear the meaning of Qin Er's words, she diverted the topic and said: "Lord Wang, we have always adhered to the principle of preferring lack to indiscriminate, and being able to ensure loyalty is the first priority, and now there is a shortage of manpower, if he is really a person with affection, he can be brought under his command, it doesn't matter if the official position is small, the most important thing is loyalty." ”
"I understand, please drink in the evening." Xia Yiyu responded.
She corrected: "The prince invited me to drink by the way." ”
Xia Yiyu replied: "Then I will invite you tonight, and I will invite him tomorrow night." ”
“………”
At dusk, it was dinner time, Dongshi Street was full of bustling people, a carriage with noble style and decoration stopped in front of Tianxiang Building, and it was Xia Yiyu and the two who got off the carriage.
- Tianxiang Building, Qin Er once entertained five proprietors of Qian Zhuang in this restaurant, and he ordered this restaurant again tonight, just because the secret proprietor of this restaurant is his brother Qin Da.
The two of them strode into the restaurant, and in addition to the restaurant maid, there was also a young man.
The young man stepped forward to salute: "I have seen the prince in the summer solstice and autumn." ”
Xie Yufei has been looking at him from the moment he sees him, Xia Zhiqiu has an elegant temperament, a handsome appearance, and a height of more than seven feet, he is really a masterpiece among people.
Xia Yiyu laughed, stepped forward and took his hand affectionately, and patted him on the shoulder, "Zhiqiu, you and this king are friends of bamboo horses, you are not allowed to care about these false courtesies, after a long absence, you will definitely get drunk when we get together today, please go upstairs in Qiu." ”
Xia Zhiqiu was flattered, and was pulled up to the second floor by him in a daze, and King Qin treated him so warmly that his heart was deeply touched.
The group went up to the third floor under the guidance of the small servant, and the three of them entered the private room, and the accompanying soldiers guarded the door.
As soon as the three of them sat down, Xia Yiyu smiled and said, "Zhiqiu is a guest, so you can order some wine and food." ”
Xia Zhiqiu was deeply touched when he heard this, he was a humble position, this unattainable Fa Xiao was too sincere to treat the past Fa Xiao, so it was inconvenient for him to be too vulgar and polite, and then smiled: "That is the case, then I will not save money for the prince." ”
He casually ordered more than a dozen dishes and ordered two jars of good wine, and made a generous shot, Xie Yufei was stunned, this nobleman is a nobleman, not her nouveau riche can look down on, the only thing that can be compared is this ability to be generous to others, spending other people's money, it is meaningless to himself.
After a while, the wine and food were served one after another, and Xia Zhiqiu casually rewarded the guy with a silver ingot, and the guy thanked him happily: "Three guest officers, it's not interesting to just eat wine, or not a small call...?" ”
Without waiting for the guy to finish, Xia Yiyu waved his hand to stop: "It's none of your business, go out." ”
Xia Yiyu drove the guy away, feeling the pinched thigh muscles suddenly relax, and the evil little hand stopped, and the owner of the little hand changed his target to deal with the exquisite dishes on the table.
Xia Yiyu drove away the guys, and found a topic to talk to Xia Zhiqiu again, and all kinds of things in the south and north of the world were pulled out to talk about it.
Xia Yiyu observed that this person is indeed worthy of being under his command, but he never mentions the matter of wooing, this matter cannot be raised in a hurry, just like pursuing beauty, you have to talk about your heart and chat first, and you need to slowly cultivate basic feelings.
The two chatted enthusiastically for a long time, Xie Yufei became an idler, eating by himself, but he did not forget to listen to their chat, observing the summer solstice and autumn from words and deeds.
Xie Yufei looked at this person, bold and magnificent, with a straight back and a straight back, respectful and dignified, but how about not his talent?
Xia Zhiqiu was talking eloquently, but also observing the two of them, he mainly observed King Qin, he felt that King Qin subconsciously glanced at the person next to him whenever he asked something, and that look seemed to be asking and even more like discussing, is this a habit? Could it be that between the two of them, there is something to discuss with the person next to them?
Although Xia Zhiqiu had doubts in his heart, he didn't want to get to the bottom of the matter.
Because the purpose of his coming tonight is more important, that is, to take refuge in King Qin. He found that King Qin also wanted to win him over, and he also intended to get closer to him, after all, he had the love of bamboo horses when he was young, and the relationship should be stronger.
Moreover, when she met with the princess of Qin, the princess and the princess of Qin, under the encounter of the clan festival, the mother had received the grace of the mother's life-saving, and the mother gave birth to a little brother at that time, and the loss of qi and blood was serious, and it was the mother who gave half of the ginseng for 500 years to hang her life, so the mother's body gradually improved, otherwise it is unknown whether she could save her life.
Of course, taking refuge in King Qin is not only because he wants to repay his kindness, but also because he can improve his status in the family and help his career.
It's just that he now only has an admirable clan status, but his official position is too low, and he can have more feared power under the big tree.
