Chapter 196: Is it Qing Ming?
Seeing that Li Shiqing was asking seriously, Qing Ming stood up at the moment, carefully recalling and describing the scene at that time.
"The slave maid saw a lot of fathers-in-law walking around outside the main hall," Qing Ming said with a bitter face, "The slave maid looked here, looked there, and didn't find Father-in-law Peng after looking around." ”
"The slave was anxious and flustered, and accidentally bumped into someone." Qing Ming scratched his head, "I didn't expect it to be Qi Yu, the son of Chengping's uncle." ”
Speaking of this, she couldn't help but smile, "According to my master, this is no coincidence, no book is written!" ”
Li Shiqing lost a murderous look, "Let's talk about the point." ”
Qing Ming stood up again, "Yes!" Then the slave maid lied that a girl wanted to find Qi Gongzi, and Qi Gongzi was convinced and followed the slave and maid to the side hall. ”
"When we got to the corner of the side hall," Qing Ming recalled, "the slave maid asked Qi Gongzi to go first, saying that the slave maid was guarding behind." ”
"And he went in? And then what? Zhou Jiaying listened anxiously.
"He's quite obedient," Qing Ming nodded, "and walked in." Thinking that she could not miss the opportunity, the slave threw something at the back of his head and knocked him unconscious. ”
"After he fainted," Qing Ming couldn't help but boast in order to brush up his favor in front of Li Shiqing, "The slave was worried that others would find out, so she dragged him into the corner, and it was foolproof." ”
“…… Stop! ”
Li Shiqing and Zhou Jiaying stopped her at the same time, "You said you smashed him on the back of the head with something?" ”
"What did you take?"
Qing Ming blinked, "Just what is in your hand," she tilted her head and thought about it, her voice getting smaller and smaller, "The slave doesn't remember......"
"It must be a jade pendant!"
Li Shiqing and Zhou Jiaying said in unison.
"Let's go, let's go to the Taihe Hall to find the jade pendant."
The group hurriedly walked forward in the direction of the Taihe Palace, and when they passed by the Imperial Garden, they happened to meet Jiang Shuli who was about to leave the palace.
After explaining the reason, Jiang Shuli walked with them to the Taihe Palace.
"At this time, most of the officials who met should have left," Li Shiqing was the most clear about the movements of the imperial family, "My father should set up Cining Palace to pay New Year's greetings to the Empress Dowager after a while." ”
From the side path to the direction of the Taihe Hall for a quarter of an hour, when it was closer, Qing Ming stretched out his hand and pointed to a side hall outside the Taihe Palace, "Eighth princess, it is in the corner of that side hall!" ”
The crowd wanted to come forward, but suddenly they heard a commotion.
A group of men came out of the Taihe Temple.
"Wait."
Li Shiqing led everyone to the corridor wall and walked briskly, "Let's avoid it first." ”
The leader came out of Li Xu, followed by Cheng Lanyuan, Lu Yin and several students from this year's scientific examination.
Slightly relieved, Li Shiqing said, "Every year, the students of the scientific examination are the last group to meet their father, and after they leave, we can pass." ”
"Eighth princess, they shouldn't find out about Qi Gongzi, right?" Qing Ming was worried.
Li Shiqing glanced at her, "There are so many people coming and going today, if you find out, will you wait until now?" Besides," she poked her finger into Qing Ming's forehead, "didn't you say you hid it well?" ”
Qing Ming flattened his mouth.
Soon, Li Xu left with everyone.
Everyone hurriedly appeared, and as soon as they took two steps, they saw Li Xu returning with Father-in-law Peng.
"Eighth Emperor Sister, but is there something?"
Li Shiqing greeted him with her head bowed.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to her, Qing Ming slipped away in a hurry in the direction of the corner of the side hall.
"This morning, Uncle Chengping's son Qi Yu said that he was going to his father's place to ask for Sister Xinyue." Li Shiqing stated her intention directly.
Li Shu was shocked when he heard this, and before he could speak, he heard a joyful voice.
"Eighth princess, I've found the jade pendant!"
"Found it?" Li Shiqing was also happy, reached out and took the jade pendant handed over by Qing Ming, and carefully looked at the jade pendant that was indeed hers, "That's good." ”
Zhou Jiaying asked, "Qing Ming, you went to pick up the jade pendant, did you see Qi Yu?" ”
Qing Ming, "There's no one over there!" ”
Li Xu, "We came out of the Taihe Palace, and we happened to see Qi Yu being brought in by my father-in-law. ”
"Oops!"
Everyone hurried back to the Taihe Hall in a hurry.
The father-in-law in front of the palace stopped them, and Li Xu said, "Your Highness has an urgent matter to find your father, please pass it on." ”
Even if you are a prince and a princess, you are not allowed to trespass without permission to offend Tianyan.
The father-in-law promised to enter the temple and return to the court, and soon came out to announce that everyone had entered the temple.
In the Taihe Palace, Qi Yu knelt on the ground, tears in his eyes, "Ask the emperor to be the master." ”
Everyone was shocked and looked at the emperor in unison.
Qi Yu has already said about the courtship?
Your Majesty, don't agree!
The emperor was a little inexplicable, "Axu, why are you here?" ”
Li Xu was dumbfounded for a while, and Li Shiqing relieved the siege in a timely manner, "Father, Shiqing and others came to pay New Year's greetings to my father." ”
Jiang Shuli and Zhou Jiaying understood, and a series of good words for the New Year overflowed from their mouths, and the emperor was happy when he heard it, so that his father-in-law gave a reward.
"That's her!"
Qi Yu suddenly pointed to Qing Ming, "Your Majesty, it was this maid who knocked me unconscious!" ”
Qing Ming's body, who was kneeling on the ground, trembled, and he was about to beg for mercy, but he heard Li Shiqing wonder, "What does Gongzi Qi mean by this?" Qing Ming has been following us in the harem and has never left, how to knock out Qi Gongzi? ”
"I won't admit it!"
Qi Yu hurriedly confessed, "It's this maid who lied that someone was looking for me, took me to the side hall and knocked me unconscious." Your Majesty, you can make the decision for me! ”
Everyone glanced at each other, and it turned out that Qi Yu hadn't said anything about asking for marriage.
Li Xu took a step forward, "Father, the son of Qi is not harmed now, can this matter be handed over to his son?" ”
When the emperor saw the officials all morning, his eyes were almost dizzy, and now it was time to go to the empress dowager to pay New Year's greetings, and glanced at Qi Yudao, who was intact, "That's fine." You need to understand the cause and effect clearly, and go back and give me an explanation. ”
With that, he drove away.
Qi Yu watched the back of the emperor leaving, and looked at the ill-intentioned gaze of everyone, feeling like he had fallen into the tiger's den in Longtan.
"What do you want to do......
Zhou Jiaying was the first to speak, "Qi Shizi, did you just say that you have seen my maidservant Qing Ming, who has been with me in the harem?" ”
"Yes, it's her ......" Qi Yu was weak.
"Then let me ask you," Zhou Jiaying kicked Qing Ming to kneel on the ground and asked her to turn her back, "Is there a birthmark the size of a fingernail on Qing Ming's face?" ”
Qi Yu was confused, "I didn't see ...... clearly"
"Can't see such a big birthmark?" Zhou Jiaying sneered, "Then let me ask you again, Qing Ming is full of spots?" ”
"Madara?" Qi Yu tried hard to recall Qing Ming's appearance, "It doesn't seem to be." ”
Zhou Jiaying pouted, "Qi Shizi, are you sure that the person you saw is Qing Ming?" ”
"That's her!" Qi Yu insisted, "I remember very clearly, it's a maid in green clothes. ”
"There are so many maids in green clothes," Zhou Jiaying pulled up Qing Ming and asked her to turn around, "My Qing Ming is full of spots, you take a good look!" ”
"Is it Qing Ming?"
