The next morning, Guo Sheng took a heart and asked Dong Third Young Master Tuo Jiaqing about the sixth lady, and said in a low voice, Li Xia didn't listen to a few words, then stopped writing, holding the pen in his hand, listening attentively, his face became more and more gloomy.

Guo Sheng looked at her face and sighed secretly, he knew that this matter would definitely make the girl unhappy," ...... Yesterday, Jia Qing came out of Yuxian Tower, and went directly to find Yingui, and said this, Yingui didn't dare to delay at all, and hurriedly went back to me, I asked Jia Qing to talk back to the third young master of the Dong family, probe the words of the third young master of the Dong family, and find out what was going on.

Said that it was the third young master Dong who heard the second young master Tao say that he had a blind date with our family before, it was because of a Youlan that it didn't work out, the second young master Tao said that the sixth lady was so low married, because the sixth lady was jealous and fierce, and he must be the head of the east lion, the second young master Tao said that he and the third young master Dong have been friends since childhood, and he is really worried about the third young master Dong, so he can't help but mention it......"

Guo Sheng didn't finish speaking, the pen in Li Xia's hand slammed out, Guo Sheng was so frightened that he almost jumped up, he thought that this matter must annoy the girl, but he didn't expect the girl to be angry like this, this is the first time he has seen the girl lose her temper and smash things.

"How is my sister, is he Dong Xianlin able to inquire?"

When Guo Sheng heard that this was wrong, he was stunned for a moment, swallowed his saliva, and persuaded stubbornly: "Dong San...... Dong Xianlin heard a few gossips and asked someone to inquire about it, which is also human nature......"

"It's!" Li Xia was in a terrible mood, "Hearing a few words of gossip, I don't want the gossip person to be in his heart, first suspect my sister, if he didn't discuss his relatives, he could barely be regarded as a person's normal feelings, and now that Xiao Dingli is down, he heard his sister's gossip, and he didn't dismiss it on the spot, and he was suspicious and asked around, such a bastard, this is human nature?" ”

Guo Sheng held his breath with his heart, looked at Li Xia with a blue face, accompanied by twelve points of caution, and said in a low voice: "Girl, the little ceremony is all right." ”

"What? After one mistake, you have to continue to make mistakes? This family business is not suitable, and this matter will be handled by you. I can't hurt my sister's reputation. Not a single bit! Li Xia leaned at Guo Sheng, and his anger was full of wisps of irritability and evil fire.

"Yes." Guo Sheng stubbornly agreed, what should I do about this? Say yes first, you can always come up with a solution.

"Tao Fuwen's Youlan, where is it now?"

"Ugh." Guo Sheng choked and immediately replied: "Let's go and investigate, don't worry, the girl will definitely find out." ”

"Get her back and send her back to Tao Fuwen." Li Xia glanced at Guo Sheng.

Guo Sheng blinked a few times, "Yes." I understand what the girl means, and the girl can rest assured. ”

Guo Sheng returned to his small courtyard from Yongningbo Mansion, and explained that Jin Gui quickly found out Youlan, and then turned around in the courtyard with a headache, and wanted to withdraw from his relatives, but he couldn't hurt the sixth lady a little bit of a star, this family, how to retreat? This has to be done quickly, and there is no delay in the slightest......

Guo Sheng was turning in circles, Chengying pushed open the hidden courtyard door, leaned in, and saw Guo Sheng standing in the courtyard, looking up at the sky, and laughed, "What kind of kung fu is Mr. Guo?" ”

"Oh, Chengying, what kind of kung fu is this, look at the clouds in the sky and see God, why do you have time to run to me here today?" Guo Sheng saw Chengying, hurriedly cheered up, since he received those few war reports in February, King Qin, General Lu and others have been busy day and night, Chengying and their little guys who are waiting close also follow the busy group to turn their feet, Chengying is definitely not hanging out and gossiping.

"Our general, let me come over and ask Mr., how is Jiu Niangzi doing? Busy or not? If you are not busy, if you are free, the roses on the wall in the second gate of the palace are about to bloom, and the general said that if the nine ladies are idle, they will go to enjoy the flowers. ”

Guo Sheng understood as soon as he heard it, and nodded while laughing, "Go back and tell your general, our girl loves flowers the most, and I will go and pass this on to the girl in a while, please rest assured, thank you for your concern." ”

Chengying got such words, and showed a relaxed smile, "Then I won't delay Mr. to see the clouds, the basket of leaf fish that Mr. sent back last time, our general loves to eat it, and our wife asked me to tell Mr.: If there is more, Mr. can remember our general." ”

"Yes, yes, more, I'll let someone send a basket over." Guo Sheng agreed repeatedly, but he was not polite, sent Chengying to the gate of the courtyard, saw Chengying walking away, hurriedly took the door, and went to Yongningbo's mansion.

Li Wenshan stood at the side door of the palace, watching a clear oil tung wood cart come in, sitting in front of the car Fugui, hurriedly greeted it, lifted the curtain, and Li Xia jumped down from the car.

"General Lu said you were coming, why did you come?" Li Wenshan pulled Li Xia a few steps forward, away from everyone, and asked in a low voice.

"Hmm." Li Xia replied vaguely, "How is the prince doing?" Tired to watch? Bad temper? ”

"My temper is good, but I look very tired when I'm tired, and I don't seem to be in a good mood, and I'm always gloomy." Li Wenshan sighed lowly, "Axia, let me tell you, the garrisons in various places are rotten, how can they be rotten like that?" Get moving...... I can't move at all, I just carried it, and a bunch of things came out, really, I can't see it, these days, just listening to it, I'm annoyed. ”

"Well, it has been peaceful for decades......" Li Xia responded absentmindedly, and did not say anything further, the garrisons in various places at this time are much better than she was at that time, and I don't know how much better, this battle was fought ten years earlier, and it is a blessing for the empire.

Lu Yiying was at the door of the study, watching Li Xia and Li Wenshan talking in a low voice from a distance, coming in side by side, approaching, bowing solemnly to Li Xia, meeting Li Xia's surprised gaze, and said with a smile: "There is Miss Lao." ”

Li Xia was even more surprised, looked at Lu Yi's gaze for a while, bent his smiling eyes, and bent his knees to the end at Lu Yi, "General Lu is polite." ”

Li Wenshan is a little inexplicable, General Lu's attitude towards Ah Xia today doesn't seem to be right, it's too formal.

Lu Yi took a step to the side, walked on the outermost side of the verandah, took a step forward, took Li Xia and Li Wenshan through the weeping flower gate, and arrived at the door of the upper room, signaling Li Xia to wait.

Lu Yi lifted the curtain and entered the house, walked to King Qin, who was buried in the middle of a pile of official documents and rosters, and whispered: "Lord Wang, Ah Xia is here, saying that he wants to talk to you, there is something urgent." ”

King Qin raised his head, looked at the piles of official documents in the long case, frowned, opened his mouth, and didn't say anything when the words came to his mouth, but the person stood up, "This girl came to me like this, it must be a very urgent matter, where is it?" ”

Lu Yi pointed out the door, "I dared to bring her over......"

"Well, come in." Without waiting for Lu Yi to finish speaking, King Qin raised his voice and shouted.

Li Wenshan lifted the curtain from Li Xia's head, Li Xia lifted some skirts slightly, entered the house, greeted King Qin, looked at him carefully first, and then bent his knees to salute.

"What are you looking at?" King Qin raised his hand to touch his face, but his hand was halfway up and fell back again.

"You look tired, and your eyes are a little dark." Li Xia raised his head again and looked at King Qin carefully.

King Qin subconsciously took half a step back, "I'm a little tired, it's okay." You don't look bad. How have you been lately? You're looking for me in such a hurry, it's nothing, right? King Qin took half a step back, as if realizing that it was wrong to step back, stepped back again, bent down slightly, and looked at Li Xia carefully.

Lu Yi pulled Li Wenshan, and the two walked to the window, standing and talking.

"I just came to you when I had something." Li Xia sighed, sighed again, found a chair and sat down, King Qin followed, sat next to her, and looked at her carefully, "What's the matter?" Annoying you like this? ”

"There's a lot going on, let me think about it, where to start, well, are you busy?" Li Xia sighed a few more times, as if he suddenly remembered, and hurriedly asked.

"It's not too busy for a while, it's not busy, there's always a lot of effort to listen to you say a few words, you can say it." King Qin smiled and motioned to Li Xia.

"The first thing, the old lady and the old lady of our family have a fight." Li Xia put his arms on the coffee table between him and King Qin, stretched out his head, and said in a low voice.

King Qin's two stunned eyebrows raised together, "Fighting?" The two of you...... Seventy has passed, right? Can you still fight? ”

"Hmm!" Li Xia's eyebrows flew up and down, looking very happy, "It's just fighting!" Li Xia waved his hand and fell, "At the beginning, it was a quarrel, the old lady and the old lady, that's all," Li Xia crossed his waist with one hand, and snapped forward with one hand, a picture of angry eyes.

King Qin's upper body couldn't help but lean back, staring at Li Xia, who was learning from the subtle and subtle, with wide eyes.

"The noisy voice was dumb, I really couldn't see it, so I shouted, I can't fight, who knows that the shouting is wrong, the old lady slapped it." This slap, Li Xia didn't make a gesture, only moved, leaned back on the chair, and looked at King Qin with a smile, "Don't look at the old lady's age, her strength is not small, this slap made five finger prints on the old lady's face, the old lady screamed, and pounced, tearing and biting, the old lady here,"

Li Xia tugged at his earlobe, "I was scratched by the old lady, and my face was scratched, but it was lively." ”

King Qin took a breath and said, "You saw it all?" How do you see that? You shout don't hit? Or shouting? ”

Li Xia looked at King Qin and smiled and did not answer.

King Qin looked at Li Xia, moved, faced Li Xia, looked her up and down, looked at her again, and asked slowly: "Then tell me, why did the old lady and the old lady in your house fight?" ”

"How do I know! When I ran to Rongxuan's courtyard, their voices were dumb, the old lady, just scolding the old lady in a different way, what is not ashamed or what, the old lady, over and over again, it is a shrew, a wicked woman, a jealous woman, alas. Li Xia couldn't help but sigh when she thought of Old Lady Li's stupidity.

King Qin leaned at Li Xia, and after a while, he stretched out his finger and nodded on Li Xia's nose, "Look at you like this, that's your wife, your Weng Weng, if you make a fuss like this, you and your fifth brother and sixth brother will have no face to follow!" ”

"Behind closed doors. The eldest aunt has already spoken, the matter of the old lady and the old lady, whether in the house or outside the house, whoever dares to mention half a word will be killed. Li Xia said that the word "killed" sounded just as delicate and soft.

King Qin glared at her, wanting to say something, but he laughed out loud, helplessly raised his hand and pressed his forehead, and motioned to Li Xia while laughing, "Let's not talk about this first, what about the second thing?" ”

"The second one, alas." Li Xia's face was full of flying and drooped, and the King of Qin who looked at it was distressed for a while, "Don't be sad, you can tell me." ”

"Okay, I'll tell you, you can help me get an idea." Li Xia sighed repeatedly, his arm was on the coffee table, and he looked at King Qin with his cheeks in his hands, "It's my sister's business, didn't my sister set the third child of Dong Hanlin's family, the one named Dong Xianlin......"

Li Xia listened to Dong Xianlin's words and inquired about his sister, "...... Tell me, can such a person still marry? ”

King Qin's brows furrowed, "Tao Fuwen said this kind of thing, his character can be seen at one end, Dong Xianlin is too confused, he and your sister have already made a family relationship, your sister is his daughter-in-law, how can you allow others to ruin his daughter-in-law's reputation in front of him like this?" ”

"Well, not only did he tolerate it, but he also asked around if his sister was really jealous." Li Xia answered.

"This is not a good person, although Xiao Dingli has already been ......" King Qin's eyelids drooped slightly.

Li Xia looked at him with a little surprise, for a moment, blinked several times, leaned forward, and said with bated breath: "That's right, that's why I came to discuss with you, you say, what should I do about this?" ”

King Qin raised his eyes to look at Li Xia, and then squinted at Li Wenshan and Lu Yi who were standing in front of the window talking, leaned forward with his upper body, and said in a low voice: "Although I have made a small ceremony, after all, I haven't married yet, this one thing can be seen, this Dong Xianlin has no backbone, and the second is too stupid......"

"The third must be a rammer in the nest, what outsiders say is right, and their own family members are wrong!" Li Xia hurriedly answered.

"Yes, character is not good. Ah Feng said, what did you say, your fifth brother listened to it and did it? ”

"Hmm!" Li Xia nodded with extreme certainty.

"You just have to talk to your fifth brother, let him put this matter in the hands of Guo Sheng, your Mr. Guo is the best at such small means."

"What about A-Niang? And the eldest aunt? The fifth brother pays attention to the word filial piety. Li Xia pursed his lips and squinted at Li Wenshan from a distance.

"This filial piety word also has to pay attention to what should be said...... Isn't there still your grandmother, your grandmother is knowledgeable, your fifth brother said that your grandmother hurts you, and Axia, who says everything, is right? ”

Li Xia kept nodding.

"Let me think about it," King Qin pinched his chin and looked at Li Wenshan obliquely, Li Xia followed King Qin's gaze, and also looked at Li Wenshan, who was standing in front of the window and talking, felt these four gazes, and inexplicably looked at the two people who were almost looking at him from the top of the coffee table, and subconsciously looked down at himself.

Lu Yi looked at King Qin, who had a smile on the corner of his mouth and his eyes narrowed slightly, and was in a trance for a moment, as if he saw the prince of Hangzhou when he was still a child.

Lu Yi's heart felt an indescribable sour heat, and when she looked at Li Xia, whose eyes were full of excitement, her heart jumped slightly.

"I see," after a moment, King Qin made up his mind, leaned forward a little more, and leaned over Li Xia's ear, "Your fifth brother is too stupid, don't tell him about this, you go to your grandmother, your uncle and Guo Sheng have a good relationship, if Guo Sheng is on his hands, according to me, your grandmother will be able to break this matter by herself." ”

"Good!" Li Xia kept nodding his head and laughed.

"Over there in the government, there is me, by the way, this matter can't come quietly, your sister and the Dong family are married, everyone knows, quietly withdraw, there are many guesses, we have to make a big fanfare, so that the whole capital knows that I have withdrawn from my family, why I have withdrawn."

"Uh-huh, I understand." Li Xia moved excitedly, "You have to detain him well!" ”

King Qin was deducted by Li Xia's sentence, poofed, I don't know if he choked, or laughed, coughed a few times, stretched out his hand and flicked Li Xia's forehead, "You are becoming more and more presumptuous, what is not, speak elegantly." ”

"Uh-huh, I see, it should be glamorous and good-looking outside." Li Xia looked up at King Qin, his smiling eyes bent into a line.

"Uh," King Qin choked for a moment, and then said with a smile, "You really understand." Ah Xia, if your sister retreats from this family business...... "King Qin grinned embarrassedly, "Even if there is no fault at all, it is not a big ...... The people in the back must look at it in advance. ”

"Alas! Isn't! Li Xia's brows furrowed suddenly, "My sister is nineteen years old this year, if she is a few years younger, it is okay, delay it for a year or two, quietly look forward to others, and wait for this matter to fade before discussing marriage, but now, this year and March are going to be over, alas, if you haven't decided on someone by the age of twenty, is there anyone in the capital who has not decided on someone at the age of twenty?" ”

"Yes, yes...... Don't worry, March has just passed, it's early, it's early, it's a family business, first quietly look at others, and you don't need to be less than half a year, and it's not your family's fault, but next time, you have to be optimistic, but you can't go back to your family. King Qin solemnly instructed.

"Next time, the eldest aunt is optimistic about others, I'll come over and tell you first, can you help take a look?" Li Xia looked at King Qin.

King Qin nodded briskly, "Okay, I'll let Ah Feng inquire quietly, Ah Feng will inquire about people, and pay attention to inquiring before putting on open crotch pants." ”

Li Xia laughed, "Then if you hear anything funny, you must tell me." ”

"Okay!" King Qin smiled and agreed.

"By the way, has Jin Shizi agreed to kiss? The day before yesterday, I heard the eldest aunt thinking about housework, and I was worried, saying that when Jin Shizi got married, this ceremony was in the name of the fifth brother, or in the name of Yongning Bofu. ”

"He has seen almost, according to me, your eldest aunt has to prepare more than two copies, your fifth brother has to prepare more than two copies, your fifth brother will give it privately, one copy from the uncle's mansion, and your little three rooms, I'm afraid you have to prepare another one." King Qin's eyes were full of gossip and he smiled.

"Why do you want to prepare a copy of the small third room? Oh! The Tang family? "Li Xia's eyes are wide open, does Jin Zhuoyan take a fancy to marrying Tang Jiashan again......

"Clever!" King Qin couldn't stop laughing, stretched out his hand and nodded on Li Xia's nose, "The third lady of the Tang family, have you seen it?" ”

"Of course." Li Xia's heart fell all the way down, his shoulders fell, and he looked at King Qin with his cheeks raised, and disguised his panic and worry into a sad face.

"What's going on?" King Qin stopped smiling and looked at Li Xia's face carefully, "You don't like this Tang family girl?" If you don't like ......"

"No, I like the third sister of the Tang family, it's just ...... Alas! Li Xialian sighed a few times, suppressing the shock and worry, "I'll tell you one thing, you can't tell others, just don't know." ”

"Mmmmmmmm King Qin stretched out his head and motioned for Li Xia to lean over and say in his ear.

"They all said that they would give the seventh sister to the younger brother of the third sister of the Tang family, Tang Jiaxian." Li Xia leaned into King Qin's ear and said in a low voice.

King Qin was not surprised, and said that since he had plans to discuss the Tang family, he naturally had to know about this matter. "It's a good thing, why are you worried like this?"

"The third sister of the Tang family is the same as my sister, but my sister is not fierce at all, the third sister of the Tang family is fierce, and she said that I was not allowed to eat fried Lantern Festival, so she kept a straight face: Axia, my sister said that you can't eat it, you can't eat it, it's useless for you to cry again. It's useless! Li Xia learned Tang Jiashan's tone and complained again and again.

King Qin laughed, and comforted Li Xia while laughing, "Then you don't have to worry, she didn't marry into your family." ”

"Well, yes, yes!" Li Xia breathed a long sigh of relief, "Jin Shizi is not the fifth brother, I won't go to their Changsha Mansion in the future." ”

King Qin was stunned, and a sour warmth surged inexplicably in his heart, "You girl, Sister Tang is not fierce, this is for your good, the fried Lantern Festival is easy to eat, not to mention, it is not good for the stomach." By the way, according to what you say, your fifth sister-in-law is also very fierce, and it is definitely useless for you to cry with her. ”

"The fifth sister-in-law is not fierce, what about you? Did your aunt take a good look at your daughter-in-law for you? You're not small anymore. Li Xia stared at King Qin and asked with a slight bated breath.

King Qin was not small when she said that you are old-fashioned, and then met Li Xia's obviously nervous gaze, and his heart softened, "Not yet, don't worry, no matter who A-Niang fancies, I will tell you first, you said it's okay, okay?" ”

"Oh." Li Xia sighed meaninglessly, the last time he just made a marriage, the person was gone, but when did she start to discuss marriage, she didn't know, people like the Queen Mother, everything is extremely long-term, and she started to lay out early, before he made a marriage, the Queen Mother must have been optimistic about people early, and then take a good look at it for a year or two, two or three years......

If the Queen Mother still takes a fancy to the girl of the Wei family......

Li Xia looked at King Qin, and couldn't tell what it felt like in her heart, the last time, because of his violent death, the Queen Mother and the Emperor, and later Jin Clumsy Yan, the kindness and tolerance of the people around King Qin made her eyes warm and sighing.

Jin Zhuoyan picked the Jiang family with a gun, and Jiang Hou went crazy, and rushed straight to the palace in the early dynasty, and the prince couldn't kneel in front of the Xuande Palace, and he couldn't make Jin Zhuoyan pay the price of even a hair.

But now, looking at King Qin in front of her, thinking about two or three years later, she couldn't hide the sadness in her heart.

"Fifth brother said you got a pair of parrots of this size before?" Li Xia diverted the topic.

"Donkey Kong, I'll take you to see it?" King Qin looked at Li Xia and asked, seeing Li Xia nodding, he stood up, took Li Xia out, passed through the moon cave gate next to the upper room, walked out of the courtyard from the corner gate, turned a few corners in the garden, and arrived at a small garden with exceptionally rich trees.

The servants in the garden hurriedly greeted them, and the king of Qin waved his hand to signal that he did not need them to wait, and took Li Xia into the garden, and Li Xia saw a pair of huge macaws standing on a low branch at a glance.

The pair of macaws tilted their heads sideways exactly the same, looking at King Qin and Li Xia approaching, their black eyes and blue feathers shining with a glimmer, which was very beautiful.

"It's so beautiful, it's so big!" Although it was not the first time Li Xia had seen it, he still exclaimed.

"It's big, and it's also big-tempered, and it just sent it over, saying that it hasn't recognized the family yet, let's not get too close, you look at its mouth, such a thick iron rod, a few can be broken." After a dozen steps away, King Qin grabbed Li Xia and didn't let her get any closer.

"It's so good-looking, it's a big temper." Li Xia took a few steps to the side, admiring the macaw while sighing.

"If you look good, you can have a big temper?" King Qin couldn't stop laughing, "Okay, good, you're right, it's so good-looking, and your temper can be bigger, what about that person?" Can it be more tolerant if it looks good? ”

"Hmm." Li Xia circled around admiring the pair of parrots and hummed casually.

"What about Jiang Yonsei? He's good-looking, how much can you tolerate? King Qin followed behind Li Xia, and when he asked, he suddenly felt that it was a little inappropriate, and he didn't know how to ask such a question.

"This," Li Xia glanced back at King Qin, "I can accommodate a lot, such as making tea, he said that he can make whatever tea he makes, anyway, watching him make tea, it's enough to see, you can't drink any tea, such as enjoying flowers, whatever he says is good, anyway, I look at any flower, such as eating." ”

Li Xia paused, twisted his eyebrows and thought about it, "It's not good to eat, he said it's delicious, it's not delicious or not." ”

King Qin was stunned and laughed.

King Qin's laughter startled the two macaws one after another, several servants hurriedly stepped forward, King Qin grabbed Li Xia, turned around and ran out, "Hurry up, hurry up." We're scared of them. ”

Li Xia and King Qin returned to the study from the garden with a smile and a smile, drank a cup of tea, as if it was just a blink of an eye, an hour or two had passed, Li Xia and Li Wenshan said goodbye, King Qin stood at the door of the upper room, watched Li Xia walk under the weeping flower door, turned around, waved at him with a bright smile, involuntarily raised his arm, and also waved, watching Li Xia brisk steps turned the screen in the weeping flower door, couldn't see it, stood for a while, turned around and entered the house.
