"Even so, that is not to bother Ashu, seeing that it is almost time to eat at this hour, I will not bother, although I am also a little hungry in my stomach."

Qi Shu pretended he hadn't heard this.

Qi Shangshu was sick again, and took a lot of leave for days to go to the morning court.

Why?

First, the gaffe in the court that day was because he lost his consciousness and inadvertently sang the opposite tune to His Majesty, which made him come back to his senses and find out what he had done, and he was beating his chest and heartache and couldn't extricate himself.

He actually sang the opposite tune to His Majesty, and he actually offended His Majesty?!

Was he evil that day? How could such a thing be done? must have been dizzy by Qi Shu! Yes, that's right, but what he was thinking about was Qi Shu's affairs, so much so that he was still in a state of fugue when he answered His Majesty.

How can this be? How so?! How can this be!

This is a question that Qi Shangshu has to reflect on himself three times a day.

Second, after he inadvertently facilitated His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to go to Guangchuan County, he didn't even know why Ning Ze, the king of Guanghan, brought His Royal Highness the Crown Prince back.

Thankfully, nothing happened, otherwise he wouldn't have asked for the black gauze hat on his head.

However, just when he thought it was okay, but when he returned to the court, something happened again!

Between the peaks and loops, Qi Shangshu only felt that his waist circumference had been reduced by a few points, which was really hateful! Qi Shu is picking quarrels and provoking trouble again.

How to say, she just took the edict from His Majesty, why did she have to join in the fun? Don't listen to what you are said to be like in Shaoliang City?

I was just whipped by myself, my life was almost gone, I was a little better and alive again, a girl in the boudoir who didn't leave the cabinet, acted so flamboyantly and high-profile, did she have to make the reputation of the Qi family so rotten that it stinks?!

Flattering! Flattering! This word Qi Shangshu himself has been satirized countless times by others, both openly and secretly, so he is extremely sensitive, and now his daughter is clumsily learning her own old way, what can she really do? !

In a word, because of Qi Shu, Qi Shangshu felt that his official position was already in jeopardy, and he had to organize Qi Shu to continue to ruin his reputation, the reputation of the Qi family, and the existing income he had accumulated over the years.

If he could, Qi Shangshu's thoughts of buying murder would come out.

Qi Shangshu, who was idle at home today and didn't dare to go out, had just finished listening to Steward Wu's report at home, his face turned black, and the tea cup in his hand was directly waved to the ground with all his sleeves, and his angry chest rose and fell, very angry.

That's right, the news that Qi Shu was summoned into the palace by His Majesty is the news that Steward Wu came to report just now.

Since Zhao Huanting took Qi Shu away, he didn't hear any more reports about Qi Shu's movements for many days, until His Majesty issued an edict, and the whole city was in a stir and blew up this hidden person.

Qi Shu went to sign up, and was summoned to the palace by His Majesty the next day.

Everything seemed to be very logical, outrageously fast, and it didn't give Qi Shangshu a chance to react.

"Master, this month is already the tenth set of tea sets, what else do you want?" Steward Wu knew that the old man was angry and liked to drop the tea set, but this month because he was often angry, he had dropped no less than 10 sets of tea sets.

If he doesn't buy the same thing again, he should consider saving some and buying some cheaper, otherwise he won't fall.

And Qi Shangshu heard his housekeeper Wu's words that he felt sorry for the tea set, and couldn't help but be furious and slapped the table directly and said, "Get out!" "Don't you see how angry he is now? I have to bother him for this little thing!

Steward Wu was also scolded with a shrunken head, didn't dare to say anything more, glanced at the fragments of the tea set on the ground nostalgically, and then went out in a gloomy manner.

This Steward Wu has been in the Qi family for many years, and it can be said that he has watched the Qi family go from thin to rich step by step.

It's a housekeeper.

Qi Luo, who happened to be passing by the courtyard, saw Steward Wu coming out of Qi Shangshu's father's study, muttering that he didn't know what he was talking about, and couldn't help but stop.

"Steward Wu?!" Qi Luo's voice was a little stiff, not as gentle and obedient as before.

"Second Miss." When Steward Wu saw Qi Luo, he couldn't help but immediately bow his head and salute respectfully.

"What's the matter, what is a man muttering? But what's wrong with Daddy? ”

Steward Wu was also a little embarrassed for a while when he heard Qi Luo ask, what else could it be, since the beginning of this year, the master was most worried about the eldest lady.

The family affairs did not go well, and they also caused a lot of trouble, and they couldn't wipe their buttocks. Where is the second lady, who is a low-key person, does things clearly, and does not affect the reputation of the Qi family at all, and is about to marry into the noble Luo family, this status is also different.

Steward Wu thought that he had also watched her grow up since he was a child, and couldn't help but feel a little relieved.

Of course, Qi Luo didn't know what Steward Wu in front of him was thinking, but urged a little impatiently: "Huh? ”

This voice successfully pulled back Steward Wu, whose thoughts were still drifting away, and Steward Wu was busy and bowed down and said, "Lady's business...... The eldest lady has done something that makes the lord angry again, this is really something that can't be helped, and now the eldest lady is said to be flattering to His Majesty in Shaoliang City, as well as all kinds of ugly words. ”

Steward Wu sighed helplessly.

Hearing that Qi Shu was unlucky, Qi Luo was still very happy at first, but listening to Steward Wu's meaning, it seemed that the reputation of the Qi family was now implicated, which was not very good.

Although Qi Luo wanted to see Qi Shu completely planted, the big tree of the Qi family still couldn't fall, after all, she was still counting on the Qi family as her backing after marrying the Luo family.

"Okay, I see, in that case, I'll go check it out first." Qi Luo nodded at Steward Wu, saying that she already knew what she wanted to know, that is, she didn't need Steward Wu to tell her anything more.

Steward Wu is also interested, knowing that Qi Luo is going to go in to comfort the master, okay, the second miss is a caring person, and she will definitely be able to appease the master better, not as stupid as his mouth.

Qi Luo walked into Qi Shangshu's courtyard with a maid behind him, and there was a single study in the courtyard, and Steward Wu watched at the gate of the courtyard for a while before leaving.

"Tuk-tuk." When Qi Luo walked to Qi Shangshu's study, she glanced at the maid beside her and motioned for her to come forward and knock on the door.

The maid signaled, cautiously stepped forward and reached out her hand and tapped gently.

But a loud shout from inside scared the two of them.

"Get out!" Qi Shangshu is angry, and the flames can ascend to heaven, who is so short-sighted that he will bother him again? Don't think he's irritable enough?

"Daddy, it's me! Qi Luo! Qi Luo, who was very frightened, said with a slight tremor in her voice after a pause.

Qi Shangshu didn't pay attention to anyone, but after hearing that the slender voice outside was Qi Luo, he couldn't help but hesitate a little.

Qi Luo, the concubine, is really much more honest than Qi Shu, which makes him worry a lot, and he is usually a person who knows cold and hot and understands his mind, so he can see it.

There was silence inside for a long time: "Come in." ”

Qi Luo has been waiting with her heart, for fear that she will be driven away, after all, she still wants to talk to Qi Shangshu about Qi Shu's affairs, no matter what, Qi Shu's actions cannot affect the reputation of the Qi family and her Qi Luo's future.

The study room is very dark, dark brown bookshelves are placed around the corners, and all kinds of books are placed on the shelves, and even some picture scrolls and bamboo slips and the like, and the luxurious table legs are carved on the table with precious pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

Usually, Qi Shangshu doesn't stay in the study much, and after going to court, he mostly drinks and eats tea with other colleagues to contact his feelings, and when he is resting, he is so busy that he can't see people, and he goes out to let off steam.

Qi Luo was just about to take a few steps forward and walk in front of Qi Shangshu, but he didn't think that he stepped on the porcelain piece with a "bang" sound on his feet, and when he looked down, he saw that it was the smashed tea set that Qi Shangshu had smashed.

Everyone in Qi Mansion knows that Qi Shangshu especially likes to smash tea sets when he is angry, and the more he smashes it, the more he relieves his anger, and the tea sets purchased in Qi Shangshu's Mansion every year are many times that of ordinary people, adding up to more than a few hundred sets.

Therefore, the people in Shaoliang City who are engaged in the tea set business know that Qi Shangshu is a family that has a certain position in the tea set business.

Qi Shangshu has a good face, people treat him as a tea lover, and the tea sets he buys are used to collect, so the tea sets usually sold to the Qi family are the best of the best, and they can be sold for a large price.

Who can afford to grow in this world?

Qi Luo gave the maid a look, signaling her to quickly clean up the broken porcelain pieces on the ground, and the maid naturally understood, and immediately took out her handkerchief and began to clean.

Qi Shangshu looked at their movements and expressions coldly, and his elongated face was longer than the donkey's face.

"What are you doing here?" Qi Shangshu said angrily, although he was willing to listen to Qi Luo talk to him, but in order to show that he was really angry now, he continued to put on a face.

Qi Luo was not annoyed, but still smiled softly and softly: "It's not that the weather is too stuffy, my daughter made rock sugar pear soup in the kitchen, and it is simmering and cooling, so I will bring it to my father, I heard the housekeeper say that my father is a little upset, and I specially came to care." ”

This is really intimate, the maid who was picking up the pieces of the tea set paused slightly, knowing that she was going to go to the kitchen to find rock sugar and pear soup after cleaning, otherwise wouldn't it just mean that the young lady was lying?

"Hey!" Hearing Qi Luo's words, Qi Shangshu sighed heavily, if only Qi Shu could have a small half of Qi Luo's sensibility, not much, just a small half, and this would be enough.

But Qi Shu, a little beast, was born anti-bone, how did he give birth to such a white-eyed wolf, when she was safe before, she felt that she was restless, and since she won the title of county lord, her tail has been cocked to the sky.
