Chapter Ninety-Five: Who Gave You Courage

"She's the kind of girl you like at first sight."

Talking about the past in the suburban house of Yancheng, Qin Bai said with a smile: "From head to toe, the whole body exudes a brilliance that people can't ignore - distinct, flamboyant, natural, how can you be indifferent?" ”

He couldn't help but frown: "Are we talking about the same thing?" ”

"Of course."

Qin Bai said with a smile: "At that time, in order to show goodwill to the Yancheng garrison, the horse bandits specially sent a few carts of fine wine and beef and mutton from outside the customs, and she was also one of the gifts. According to Zhao Zheng's consistent beautiful style, I should have included her in the palace as a concubine. However, in the end, I was still selfish, and I didn't want to miss her, so I placed her alone in a private house outside the palace and kept it quietly, waiting for one day when I could get out, so that I could continue the frontier.

I think it's done seamlessly, huh...... People are not as good as heaven, and you know the rest of the things. ”

"Huh."

"Actually, I liked her from the beginning. It's just that because of his special identity, he doesn't dare and can't think about it. During that time, even the matter of hiding her in the outer house, I was full of regret and fear when I thought about it. But as soon as I see her, I immediately feel that even if I put a little more effort and take a little risk, everything is worth it. ”

"So, after three months of marriage, the total number of appearances has been shown twice, and you tell me that this is called liking?"

There was no lack of sarcasm in his tone: "Should I praise you for being a dedicated dramatist, or a liar full of lies?" ”

"It's true!"

He spoke earnestly, and his face was full of seriousness: "I have made up my mind from the beginning, as soon as the matter of pretending to be the prince has passed, I will come back to her immediately and tell her everything!" ”

"Aha, apparently she didn't have the patience to make it to that point."

"I didn't expect that either."

Qin Bai's face was slightly red: "My original plan was to quietly raise her in a foreign house, and when Zhao Zheng's longevity is over, at most half a year, I will confess everything to her and take her away!" However......"

He didn't continue, just sighed helplessly.

"What she wants to do, it has to be now, now, right now, right away, just by day."

He simply spoke it out for him.

Careful, cautious, and everything is based on safety, which is Qin Bai's consistent style. In other words, grinding, grinding to death, Xue He doesn't have the patience to wait for your procrastination to heal itself.

Qin Bai nodded: "She disrupted all the rhythm I set." After the matter was revealed, I had to go back to the palace, and then I was ordered to suppress the bandits, and it can be said that I couldn't help myself, and I came to this point...... Of course, I'm not complaining about her, I'm just stating the facts. ”

The caution in his eyes made him feel as if he had returned to ten years ago, and he was still the timid and scared little river god.

Looking at his face, Zhao Zheng's middle-aged man's face, after ten years of vicissitudes in the world, has obviously become much older, his temples are white, his eye sockets are deep, and even his face is much thinner than before. It's just that when he talked about Xuehe and the past before, his eyes were once again shining with the brilliance of a teenager, simple and pure.

But inexplicably, he suddenly thought of the tragedy of the three thousand palace maids that had just happened in the morning. Qin Bai is no longer the fake prince who has no opinions and only needs to be fooled, but Zhao Zheng, the son of heaven.

"The matter of the three thousand palace maids ......"

Sure enough, as soon as he mentioned the beginning, Qin Bai's face immediately became gloomy, showing the seriousness unique to a cold-blooded king, and his cold face was not angry and arrogant.

"Of course, whether it is the former dynasty or the harem, you are a son of heaven, no matter what you do, there is nothing to blame."

Watching the obvious change in expression on his face, he continued quietly:

"It's just that I want to remind you that as long as something happens, it will definitely leave a trace. Xuehe's ghostly girl, if she knows that you suddenly killed so many palace maids, but you refuse to tell the reason, she will definitely be very curious about what happened.

Of course, you can make up any excuses to fool her, but it's better to make it up first. You know, if a lie is told, it takes a hundred lies to come true, think twice. ”

It was a reminder to him.

Although he didn't care what the courtiers and the world thought of him, he deliberately made such a big move just to cover up the truth that he didn't want to be known, and he was afraid that he would also be suspected of wanting to cover it up.

Xue He really asked more seriously, it was really difficult to answer correctly. She's harder to fool than the heavenly officials of the Execution Division.

"So, I suggest to the emperor, if there is anything related to the harem in the future, it is better to leave it to the queen to deal with. Yu Miaojin is such a smart person, she will definitely be able to do things well. …… Even if they really leave any tricks, these two women have never dealt with each other, even if they see each other one day, it is estimated that they will not be able to talk about any fireworks, so you can rest assured. ”

Qin Bai thought about it, and finally nodded:

"Okay, it's up to you."

Seeing that the purpose of this trip was basically achieved, he got up and said goodbye: "Ming'er will go south early in the morning, passing by the Wushan boundary. …… Do you have anything to say or something to bring to her? ”

Qin Bai was suddenly stunned when he heard this, and then a trace of joy flashed in his eyes.

——

No matter what kind of season it is in the Central Plains, every time you come to Wushan, the climate is always humid and sultry, and it seems to rain in the mountains, and even makes people wonder if there really is a sunny day in this ghost place.

But this is also a helpless thing, the mountains here are perennially filled with poisonous miasma, only in the early morning when it rains the weakest, it is easier for outsiders to enter the Zhu Shixing Palace safely.

"Tell me about you, pick it......"

Shu Hai's eyes were about to roll out of the sky, he pouted, supported his cheek with one hand, glanced at the paper bag on the table, and said in disgust: "Your father and mother didn't teach you, do you have to bring gifts when you see your elders?" Just bring a bag of preserved fruits! It wasn't for me yet! This dares to break into my mountain gate, who gave you the courage, boy? ”

"Well, if you like it, I'll bring you another pack next time."

"Phew! Am I the master who wants to fight with my apprentices? Is this a matter of a packet of preserved fruits? Attitude! Is it a matter of attitude?! ”

Knowing that the old monster was deliberately playing on the topic, he had to laugh and coax: "Blame me for not thinking well, I only care about hurrying early in the morning, and I came in a hurry." If you like anything, you might as well tell me directly, and I'll definitely make up for it next time. ”

"Next time?! Believe it or not, I won't open the door for you next time? ”

Shu Hai looked disdainful, opened the paper bag, and all kinds of preserved fruits of different colors exuded a sweet taste:

"What, I heard that Qin Bai's kid has become the emperor?"

"Yes. It's been more than ten years. ”

"I think it's good enough. are all emperors, and there is no shortage of gold, silver and jewelry - the flirtatious sister knows to send this? Deserves to be a single dog for the rest of his life, phew. ”

It seems that the old monster still holds a grudge, and the last time he betrayed him is not over, and he is still holding back this evil breath in his heart.

He was also helpless: "I asked him if he wanted to bring anything to Xuehe and what to say, he was stunned and thought about it for a night, but he stuffed me with a bag of this early in the morning for me to bring, and I was also desperate." ”

"You're weird too."

Shu Hai narrowed his eyes and said, "How could a big idler who usually doesn't care about anything suddenly take care of this matter?" It's not like your style. ”

He sighed, and told Qin Bai about the slaughter of three thousand palace maids in a fit of rage, and Jun Qi could not dissuade him, so he had to summon Heavenly Court in the hope of sending someone down to help deal with it.

"Wow."

Shu Hai listened to him with relish, squinted his eyes and smiled: "There's something going on here, right?" ”

The old monster is the old monster, worthy of being an old fairy for thousands of years, this vision is really a thief.

He also smiled: "I don't care about anything else, in short, he has promised me that he will not kill the palace maid indiscriminately in the future, and I will be a favor to help him bring a word, which is good for everyone." ”

"Eh, don't divert the topic, why did he kill the palace maid?"

He sighed in his heart and said with a wry smile: "He didn't tell me about this." ”

"Hush."

didn't find any fresh gossip, Shu Hai shook his head with some disappointment: "If you have to wait for my apprentice to solve the case, I'm afraid it will ...... Hey. ”

“…… Can't you just hope they get better? ”

The two were talking, when they saw Xue He pushing the door in: "Master, are you looking for me?" ”

She was dressed in the same beautiful skin as before, thin and small, and her figure was as slender as before; She wore a home-woven cloth dress common to women in southern Xinjiang, with flowers embroidered with colored threads on dark blue burlap, and a collar full of silver bells on her snow-white neck, like a cute girl from a minority village.

"Fourth brother!"

Seeing that the fox was also there, Xue He stepped forward with a smile and said hello.

He looks good and is in a good mood. Unlike Qin Bai, resentful men are not far from being perverted for too long.

"Huh? Preserved fruit! ”

As soon as Xue He saw the things on the table, his eyes immediately lit up: "For me?" ”

Shu Hai snorted dissatisfiedly, and nodded with a sly smile.

"It's been a long time since I've eaten this, but I miss it!"

Xue He took the paper bag in his hand, pinched out a piece and put it in his mouth, and smirked while pretending to let the two of them taste it too, and the two waved their hands one after another, looking at her like this, she was very happy.

"This thing is only available in the north, I'm going to take it to the sister and sister in the village to taste it!" Xue He said and wrapped the paper bag again, raised his face and asked:

"What did he have to say to you?"

"Nope."

I thought she might be a little disappointed when she heard this, but she didn't want her to smile and ask, "Then did he pester you and come to me?" ”

"Not either."

"Looks like he's got my heart."

Xue He still smiled, thanked the fox, and then turned around and went out again.

She looked at her back bouncing away, and was a little unbelievable for a while:

"Is this girl alright?"
