Chapter 42 Alluring the country and the city
Green Tangerine and Mo Zhu were stopped downstairs, Zhao Siming said that only the county lord of Qingming could go up, Zhao Zhou and Zhao Quan had already returned to Zhao Kingdom, and now only Zhao Siming was guarding the princess, so he definitely wouldn't let too many strangers approach her.
Hearing this, the green orange wanted to reason with him, what does it mean, he is guarding against them, and she is still worried about her own young lady, how can she double standard?
Qi Shu lowered his eyebrows and smiled lightly and said, "You two are waiting for me downstairs, Green Orange, don't you like to eat the crystal hooves of the Twilight Tavern, whatever you want." "However, it's better to pay for the treat.
"Yes, miss." Hearing this, the green orange was moved and worried, and she didn't know who the person upstairs was, but the young lady actually remembered that she liked to eat pig's trotters, which was really intimate.
"Well, I'll go back as soon as I go, Mozhu." handed her a look, signaling her to be cautious, and then Qi Shu walked upstairs in a curling manner, someone recognized Qi Shu, but seeing that the atmosphere around her was a little serious, she didn't dare to say anything at will, just as she was also a guest who came to eat and drink.
Qi Shu wasn't so worried, since the other party had the intention of inviting each other, how could she not give face, but she didn't like this kind of coercion.
When Zhao Siming led her to the door of the innermost third box to stand, Zhao Siming knocked on the door, paused and heard the soft female voice inside answering, before pushing the door open and motioning for Qi Shu to enter. After Qi Shu entered, he closed the door and walked to the door of the box next to him to stand guard.
When Qi Shu raised his feet and went in, he saw a woman in white sitting at the wine table, wearing a half-fan of demon fangs on her face, Qi Shu thought that the other party was trying to hide her identity, and she didn't feel strange, she looked at the tea cup in her hand and stared carefully, the window of the box was closed, and most of the time the window of the private room of the Twilight Tavern was open. It made Qi Shu feel a little depressed.
Quietly approached, and sat down opposite the woman in white.
Zhao Huanting chuckled, put down the hand holding the teacup, and then pushed the wine jug in front of her towards Qi Shu.
"Lord Qingming, meet again, wine or tea?" Zhao Huanting, who covered half of her face, smiled in a charming way, her teeth were like pearls and her red lips were bright, I don't know how Qi Shu seemed to be a little dusty, not as fresh and dusty as that night, or not to apply powder to make her more comfortable.
Zhao Huanting saw Qi Shu's face staring at her and frowned slightly, her eyes were focused and serious, and she was a little surprised in her heart, did she recognize him? Impossible, it was the first time he had been to Zhao Kingdom, and there had been no news about her before, so it was impossible for her to recognize him.
"How? , Lord Qingming doesn't recognize me? Shaking away the panic in her heart, Zhao Huanting said with a smile.
"No, of course I do, as for eating tea or wine, haven't you already helped me choose?" Qi Shu reached out and took a wine glass, then picked up the wine jug and filled it, and then drank it all.
Well? It tastes so strange, it's not wine, it's tea? No, the taste of tea and wine is there, this is to the wine pot mixed with tea!
Looking at Qi Shu's strange face, Zhao Huanting's eyebrows overflowed with a hint of banter. Some gloating and said: "Oh, this doesn't mean that I know that the county lord of Qingming is here, I am in a hurry, and the hospitality is not good, forgive me." ”
The shaft is rude!
Qi Shu put down the wine glass, his expression was already displeased, and his thin cherry lips spit out lightly: "Farewell!" "Get up and get ready to leave.
Zhao Huanting saw that the other party was angry because of her prank, and she couldn't get up, and reached out to grab Qi Shu's hand, the feeling of the tentacles was delicate and soft and silky, like a dense and itchy feeling hit her body, Zhao Huanting hurriedly let go again.
Worried that Qi Shu would leave, he hurriedly added: "Don't be angry, it's me who was rude." I heard that outsiders all said that the county lord had a very good temper, so I guess I wouldn't be too concerned because of my stubborn deeds, right? ”
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and took off the demon fangs mask on his face, since Qi Shu saw that she was not different, he didn't know why he didn't want her to misunderstand that he was an ugly-looking person.
Qi Shu turned his head to look, and his round eyes widened suddenly.
Zhao Huanting was very satisfied with the shocked way she saw her appearance, too, the whole world can see his appearance unmoved, I am afraid that there are only immortals in the sky.
The standing posture seems to be like the closed moon of light clouds, like the snow of the wind, the skin is flawless, the cheeks are slightly red, the eyebrows are affectionate, and when she meets her radiant eyes, she feels as if she is attracted by the whirlpool and can't pull away, the lips are beautiful, the corners of the mouth are slightly upturned, and it looks like she is laughing if she doesn't smile.
It is advisable to be angry and happy. These were the only words Qi Shu could come up with when his mind was almost blank.
What's the deal with the more you look at it, the better it looks?
"The county lord? Princess? Zhao Huanting was very satisfied with Qi Shu's appearance, and heard Qin's mother say that she didn't blink when she saw those good little men in the Shiyi Nanfeng Pavilion, and now she was stunned when she saw him, what a fool.
Qi Shu came back to her senses and looked a little stunned, Zhao Huanting took her and sat down, and she was at his mercy.
"County Lord, I call myself the son of Leaving Worries, my real name is Huanting, you can call me Tingting." Zhao Huanting said abruptly.
After being silent for a while, Qi Shu secretly said in his heart, Qi Shu, Qi Shu, you are too angry! How can it be so unproductive? When I saw a beauty, my eyes straightened.
"Qi Shu, the eldest daughter of Qi Shangshu." Now that he already knew the identity of the Qingming County Lord, she didn't need to explain more.
"It's an honor for the county lord to come today, she just wants to make friends with the county lord, how about it?" Zhao Huanting looked at Qi Shudao with a sincere face.
It's not like this to make friends, I was confused and was brought over to play around, no one wants to make this friend, Qi Shu slandered in his heart, and said with some resentment: "Why do you write and hang the words of the day?" I know that this is a problem for me. ”
Zhao Huanting was stunned when she heard this, everyone in Shaoliang City knew that the Twilight Tavern was the place where literati and scholars gathered the most, and the works that could be hung here were all masterpieces, and there were countless beautiful words, so why bother?
Looking at the other party's puzzled eyes, Qi Shu became even more resentful, but he was embarrassed to say it directly, and he should not talk about it when interacting with people, so he still didn't say it.
"If the county lord doesn't want to say it, it doesn't matter, Wan Ting will inquire by herself." Zhao Huanting could see that Qi Shu was very smart and cautious, but he was still too simple.
Scoundrels!
"Do you know about me and Fang's house?"
Of course, Zhao Huanting knew that on the way to Wei, she had already heard about Qi Shu being named the county lord with a different surname, so she inquired about the cause and effect.
"I know a little bit about it." He said modestly.
Qi Shu naturally doesn't say that others are bad, what she thinks about is just a plain and low-key person, no sorrow or joy, and no one else. After thinking about it, he said: "After Your Majesty's grace, I don't want to cause any more waves, Qing's move is to trap me in hardship, my family has come to pay homage, and there will be continuous troubles in the future." ”
If it was really as she thought, it would really be very troubled and troubled.
"Is the county lord really so indifferent to fame and fortune?" Zhao Huanting was a little unconvinced, if the world has no waves about this, then is this world still world?
"Do you know Yan Yuan? The heart yearns for it. Qi Shu responded.
Yan Yuan, a disciple of Confucius in ancient times, the head of the seventy-two sages of Confucius, that is, a spoonful of food, a scoop of drink, in the alley.
Zhao Huanting smiled: "The county lord is a noble girl, how have you ever experienced the suffering of the world?" Ideal ear. ”
How could a woman like her ever see the real suffering of the people? It's just a rhetoric, and when I close my eyes, the scene of epidemic and starvation in the remote areas of Zhao is still in front of me.
"The ideal becomes the ideal, but it will be realized but not realized, all in all, Qing's move, Qi Shu is displeased, and Qi Shu is unwilling to be perfunctory with such a shining person as Huan Ting, and I hope that Qing can take off the word, and return Qi Shu to calm and waveless." After that, he stood up and said, "Stay and stay." ”
Zhao Huanting watched Qi Shu walk to the door and prepare to open the door and walk out, and suddenly said with a little anger in her chest: "What about Ning Ze, the king of Guanghan who is known as the Bone Heavy God Cold Heavenly Temple of the Wei Kingdom?" I don't know if the daughters of his hundred families are willing to ask for this one? ”
At the mention of Ning Ze, Qi Shu's back stiffened, his footsteps stopped, and after a while, he finally left the room without saying a word.
The teacup and warm wine had been cold for a long time, Zhao Huanting looked deeply at the direction where Qi Shu left and opened the door, her eyes were full of complicated emotions, and she snatched the wine jug mixed with tea as if she was a little angry, but she caught a glimpse of the empty wine glass that Qi Shu had just drunk and was still lying there alone.
refilled a cup, picked it up and drank it all, and then slammed the cup used by Qi Shu on the ground, furious.
Zhao Siming, who was standing outside, heard the sound of the private room and hurriedly ran in to take a look, just now it was a little strange for the county lord to leave alone. When he entered, he saw the princess who had taken off her mask, and he was immediately shocked and stunned on the spot.
Zhao Huanting frowned and glanced at him and said, "Get out!" ”
"The princess forgives her sins, and her subordinates have no intention of offending. Princess, your mask ......"
"I said, get out" The tone was extremely cold, Zhao Siming thought he heard the man's voice for a moment, so frightened that he hurriedly went out to close the door, and his heart was pounding and almost came out of his throat.
Maybe I heard it wrong, but the princess's voice has always been a little special.
The green orange and Mo Zhu downstairs did not dare to eat anything because Qi Shu went upstairs, but ordered a large table of dishes.
When Qi Shu went downstairs with an unhappy face, the two maids hurriedly greeted him to see if there was anything wrong with his young lady. Seeing the worried eyes of Green Tangerine and Mo Zhu, Qi Shu's face became better, and he asked with concern, "How is it?" Have you eaten something delicious? "Pinched the nose of the green orange, this girl is gluttonous.
"No, it's ordered, it's not that I'm worried that Miss won't be able to eat it." Green orange pouted and said, in fact, she really wanted to eat.
"Okay, Xiao Er, all the dishes we just ordered are packed and taken away."
Xiao Er glanced at Qi Shu suspiciously, then obediently packed the meal and respectfully handed it to the green orange. "Miss, is this really okay?"
"Well, that's okay." Qi Shu nodded.
"How much?" Midori asked, as he pulled the money out of his pocket.
"No need, no need, Childe said, in the future, if the lord of Qingming County comes to the store to eat without charging money, I will take it away directly if I like it." Xiao Er's polite flattery is just right and won't make people feel harsh.
After the politeness was over, Qi Shu led the two maids out of the hotel door, and the groom of the Qi Mansion was settled to the side to rest, and when he saw that his young lady was busy, he got up and went to set the horse.
And Ning Ze, who was lazy and bored, saw that Qi Shu finally came out, and the stone in his heart was also put down, although he didn't know what they were talking about inside.
