When she arrived at the prefect's mansion, Qiao Qiu got off the sedan chair, and before she could walk in, she met the prefect who came to greet her.

"Lord Prefect, how dare you come to pick me up?"

The prefect smiled so much that the two beards on his lips shook and twitched, and said: "You and I have known each other for a long time, and I invited you to the house today, it is not an official matter, what does it matter if I don't come to pick you up as a prefect?" ”

"The prefect is polite."

"Let's go inside."

"Okay."

Qiao Qiu walked into the mansion with the prefect, and saw a lot of gardenias along the way, and couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, she didn't like white, but she preferred white gardenias. Second, it smells very good; Thirdly, she likes Gardenia's words very much - strong, eternal love, and a lifetime of waiting. If her lover is still willing to love her and protect her every life, then she is also willing to wait for him and guard her feelings for him.

The prefect saw her looking at those gardenias, and said with a smile: "Shen Gongzi, this official heard that you love gardenias, so I was curious about what is so magical about this flower?" So I went to buy some, but I never thought that after my wife saw it, she immediately liked this flower, and filled the house everywhere, including some other colors. Inviting Shen Gongzi to come this time is also intended to invite Shen Gongzi to watch the flowers. ”

Qiao Qiu said with a smile: "The prefect can think of Shen everywhere, it really flatters Shen, this flower is really good, it blooms delicately, and it is pleasing to the eye." ”

"There's still one over here."

The prefect gradually led Qiao Qiu to the back garden, full of gardenias, various colors contrasted with each other, and the fragrance came to the nose, which was spectacular.

Qiao Qiu swept past these flowers, and saw the people in the pavilion at a glance, a flash of light flashed in his eyes, and sure enough, it was him.

The injuries she suffered yesterday are not completely healed, but she can't show the flaws, otherwise the mystery on her mask will be revealed.

"Lord Prefect, it turns out that you still have guests, so I won't bother you much here."

"Shen Gongzi......" The prefect stopped her, a little embarrassed, after all, he was deceiving someone. He stubbornly said: "Shen Gongzi can't make a mistake, this big man is something you can't afford to provoke, you have refused to see him yesterday, since we met today, why don't you explain everything clearly?" lest you hurt the peace. ”

Qiao Qiu smiled lightly, "The prefect is too polite, Shen is just a businessman, and his status is low, where can he dare to talk about the word 'harmony'?" ”

"Shen Junbai, this official is also for your good, why don't you appreciate it?" The prefect was a little angry.

Qiao Qiu said with a smile: "Lord Prefect's intentions, I know and know that you have no room to resist in the face of the orders of your superiors. I appreciate that you can think of me in this situation, but gratitude does not mean that you will compromise. Let's take a look at it first. ”

The prefect couldn't guess what Shen Junbai was thinking, but if he was willing to go and see him, then his task would be completed. "Shen Gongzi, go over by yourself, he has a secret matter to discuss with you, and it is inconvenient for the official to be around."

Qiao Qiu took a look at his current situation and nodded, "Okay, I'll go over by myself." ”

The prefect left the back garden, Qiao Qiu looked at the flowers in the garden, and the corners of her mouth twitched, why did she have the feeling that a beautiful woman had a private meeting with a talent?

Of course, if that's the case, then forget it, but the key is that she is a man now, although the soul is not, but the body is real, this feeling has changed all of a sudden, and it gives you anger.

Qiao Qiu waved away the mess, strode into the pavilion, and looked at the handsome man, "I think you are Li Gongzi." ”

Li Gongzi had seen him a long time ago, and when he looked closer, it was indeed the dragon and phoenix among the people he imagined, and it was different from the businessmen he had seen before on the rich side, Shen Junbai was independent, although he wore a mask, but he still gave people a feeling of 'strangers are like jade, and Gongzi is unparalleled in the world'.

"Can Shen still get into the eyes of the son?"

Hearing this, Li Gongzi smiled and said: "Shen Gongzi said that he laughed, a genius like you, I should say that I can't get into your eyes." ”

"Don't hold me up, I don't eat this, just say anything you want." If this person doesn't report his true identity, Qiao Qiu won't be polite to him.

"I can't imagine that Shen Gongzi is still such a bold person, your eyes are so sharp, can't you guess the meaning of the next one?" For Qiao Qiu to be aggressive, Li Gongzi is calm and calm, talking and laughing freely.

Seeing that he was not affected by himself at all, thinking that he was a person with a firm heart, Qiao Qiu said: "How can I guess Your Excellency's intention?" I'm not a roundworm in your belly. Li Gongzi looked at this flower, what do you think? ”

Qiao Qiu suddenly jumped the topic, Li Gongzi was a little caught off guard, but he quickly regained his composure and looked at Hua Dao: "This flower is extremely tough, although it is not comparable to a noble flower, but it has its own world." ”

"Although the flower is small, the role is big, it can survive anywhere, it can be seen that the vitality is strong, if Li Gongzi understands flowers, but he can't just see that it has this small world, and ignore the others."

Only then did Li Gongzi notice that the clothes Qiao Qiu was wearing were embroidered with green bamboo, bamboo, which was noble and had a hidden meaning, was he using this to tell him that it would not be used by him?

"How about we talk about a deal?"

"Transactions are based on sincerity, and if the heart is not sincere, the transaction is not discussed." Qiao Qiu shook a thousand catties in two and two, and went back again.

Li Gongzi's eyes flashed, Shen Junbai, it seems that he can drive the development of the entire Xiangzhou, he is definitely not an ordinary person, thinking of this, he made up his mind, such a person, if he is not controlled, will become a big disaster in the future.

"Okay, I'll open my identity to you to negotiate a deal, Shen Junbai, you are the first person who forced me to be willing to automatically reveal my identity in such a short period of time."

Qiao Qiu was taken aback, she thought it was a prince, this guy turned out to be the emperor?!

She lifted the hem of her clothes and bowed down, "The grass people see the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor." ”

"Flat." The emperor walked to the stone bench and sat down, and said to Qiao Qiu, "Sit down." ”

"The grass people thank the emperor, but the grass people don't dare to sit on an equal footing with the emperor. Emperor Xie sent troops to exterminate the bandits last month, and the revenge of the grass people and the people were avenged. Qiao Qiu bowed again, stood up, and stood aside.

The emperor didn't force her, looking at her mask, "I heard that your appearance was because you were insulted by the bandits at the beginning, and in a fit of anger, you destroyed yourself?" ”

Qiao Qiu touched his mask and said, "When I was young and vigorous, after my parents died, I was already in poor spirits, how could I still stand such insults?" I also regretted it very much afterwards, but it was a fact that it was useless to try to redeem it, so I had to wear this mask so as not to scare people. ”

The emperor sighed regretfully, "It's a pity to hear that you are the first son of Shuzhou and Xiangzhou that no one can compare." ”
