Chapter 67: The Emperor's Birthday
He Xiaobai swallowed the pastries in his mouth, trotted over and said, "Brother, I met my sister and the prince in Fushoutang, and then my sister said that she wanted to buy me pastries to eat."
He Qingyun nodded, glanced at the pastries on the table and said, "Why don't you wrap it up and take it back to the house to eat?"
He Xiaobai laughed embarrassedly twice and said, "Didn't I say, I don't remember what the flavor I like to eat is, and then my sister let me eat the same."
He Qingyi looked at Ji Qingyi awkwardly and muttered, "Thank you." ”
Ji Qingyi still wondered, thinking what was wrong with this person, so he poked his face and said with a smile: "Took the wrong medicine?" Say thank you to me for being so polite? ”
He Qingyun dodged back, lowered his head and said to Xiaobai: "Which flavor do you taste?" My brother has to hurry back, otherwise your uncle will find out and be beaten. ”
He Xiaobai licked his mouth and raised the pastry in his hand: "That's it, it's delicious." ”
He Qingyi wrapped the pastry and took He Xiaobai away, Ji Qingyi scratched his head and turned around and asked Xiao Jin suspiciously, "What's wrong with him?" ”
Xiao Jin shrugged his shoulders and said, "How do I know, I don't know. ”
As soon as Ji Qingyi was about to return to the Jin Palace, he heard Xiao Jin say: "The day after tomorrow is the emperor's birthday, how about you accompany me?" ”
As soon as I heard the word birthday, Qingyi's mind was full of many tables of wine and food, and a lot of dancing girls singing and dancing. Ji Qingyi 'hehe' laughed twice and said, "Then, can I go too?"
It was rare for Xiao Jin to see her show such a cute expression, and scratched the tip of Ji Qingyi's nose and said, "Of course you can go, you are the future princess of Jin, how about accompanying me?" Kindness? ”
Ji Qingyi's face flushed, and he shrank slightly: "Then I will reluctantly accompany you."
After that, he raised his head and thought about it: "The gift to the emperor must be carefully prepared, hey, why didn't you tell me earlier, how can you prepare a gift the day after tomorrow."
Xiao Jin laughed out loud, took her hand and walked forward in a good mood, and said as he walked: "Do you still need to take care of the birthday gift?" I'm ready, you just have to come with me. ”
Ji Qingyi was not happy, and said with a stiff neck: "Then how can it be done, you have to leave a good impression when you see the emperor for the first time."
Xiao Jin squeezed her hand and pretended to be unhappy and frowned: "What are you doing to make a good impression on him?" Why haven't I seen you care so hard about me? ”
Ji Qingyi was tickled by his scratched hands, and laughed twice: "Why do you still care about your own uncle."
Xiao Jin's eyes flashed a trace of gloom when he lowered his head, but when he leaned over to look at Ji Qingyi, his eyes returned to his spoiled and abnormal appearance: "He is not an ordinary uncle, he is the saint of the Ninety-Five, a man that many women in the world want to cling to." Of course I have to care differently. ”
Ji Qingyi leaned over him and said, "Hey, you're jealous?"
Xiao Jin pretended to be particularly aggrieved and said, "Who is jealous?" No! ”
Ji Qingyi leaned his head close to him, and poked him in the chest again: "Really jealous?"
Xiao Jin still ignored her, pursed his lips and walked forward: "Go home."
Ji Qingyi walked over in two steps and grabbed Xiao Jin's arm: "How can your temper be hot and cold, no matter how much King Wei is respected, he is not as good-looking as you, you look at your sword eyebrows, and the clear eyebrows make the girl unable to walk, I am a person who likes skin, so I naturally like you more."
Xiao Jin felt very happy when he first heard it, but the more he listened to it, the more awkward he felt, what kind of person likes skin, what likes you more, could it be that she just likes his skin?
Xiao Jin's face darkened, and he gently shook off Ji Qingyi's hand and said, "Are you saying that if there is someone who looks better than me, you like him but not me?"
Ji Qingyi helped her forehead with a headache, what did she say about him to be happy, he and her were originally engaged to her on a marriage contract, and she coveted her power and wanted to find out through him about her father's imprisonment. Although she has some feelings for him, and he has also touched her a lot, Ji Qingyi has never been a person who lives by feelings, in her previous life, and she is now. So if it weren't for the fact that King Wei was not good-looking, old and decrepit, she might have considered her plan to be a concubine.
But Ji Qingyi didn't really plan to tell him this, so she turned around Xiao Jin's arm again without skin and face, and said softly: "How come, you see Hongchen looks good, right?" But I didn't like him either. ”
Ji Qingyi lowered her head as she spoke, wiped her tears twice, glanced at Xiao Jin's eyes, and snorted, "Or do you believe me at all."
As soon as the words fell, Xiao Jin pulled her to walk quickly to the alley, and then shook his hand against the wall, he lowered his head and said in a low voice: "Pretend, pretend."
Ji Qingyi was stunned by this sudden situation, blinked his eyes and said, "I, what's wrong with me......"
Xiao Jin smiled, and then slowly lowered his head: "Who did you learn from this trick of pretending to cry?"
Ji Qingyi laughed twice when he heard it and said, "I, I was born beautiful and inherited."
Xiao Jin didn't understand what she meant, leaned over and said in her ear: "You little conscienceless, if I don't believe you, you can still be here now?"
Ji Qingyi stretched out his arm and pushed him twice: "Aren't I kidding you, you looked unhappy just now."
Xiao Jin let go of her, still staring at her and said, "You were making me happy just now?"
Ji Qingyi glared at him angrily: "No!"
Xiao Jin stepped forward and grabbed his neck, and walked forward: "Yes, you are just making me happy."
Ji Qingyi propped himself back, thinking about putting his arm off his neck: "Oops! Don't hold me down, can't you! ”
Xiao Jin said seriously as a scoundrel: "I'm so tired."
Ji Qingyi immediately wanted to scold, kicked him and said: "You are tired and I am tired, who hasn't walked for a day, you hurry up, a big man is carrying me on my body, do you want to be embarrassed?"
Xiao Jin put his face to her neck and laughed sullenly: "This king is shameless, this king wants you."
Ji Qingyi 'Teng' made a big red face, twisted the flesh on the inside of his arm, and said angrily: "What nonsense, this is."
Ji Qingyi thought about it sideways: "The gold and silver treasures are too cheesy, and there are many people who give them medicinal treasures or something."
Xiao Jin raised his eyebrows: "How?"
Ji Qingyihuan thought as he walked on his chest: "Can you apply to the emperor, and we will design his birthday?"
Xiao Jin looked at her and said with a smile: "The birthday was designed as early as a month ago."
Ji Qingyi frowned unhappily and said, "You just go and propose it, and you can modify it again."
Xiao Jin nodded helplessly and said, "Okay, okay, I'll go to the palace to discuss with the emperor later, it's just one day, are you enough?"
Ji Qingyi waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, you won't be able to use it up in a day."
Speaking as if he remembered something, he suddenly looked left and right and leaned into his ear and asked, "Hey, let me ask you a question."
"You say."
Ji Qingyi lowered his voice and said, "Is it as good as Longyang in the saint today?"
Looking at Xiao Jin's darkened face, he thought to Qingyi, he couldn't blame himself for asking such a question, which dynasty and generation of emperors would not be called emperors if they didn't have a quirk, and besides, she still needed Hongchen's help to congratulate her birthday, what if she was taken by the saint?
Xiao Jin said with a dark face: "No!"
Ji Qingyi laughed dryly twice, and didn't say anything.
After the two went back, Xiao Jin rode into the palace on horseback, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw Li Niangniang coming from the direction of the east courtyard. It is said that there are four large courtyards in this Jin Wangfu, and the north courtyard is the main courtyard, with many independent small courtyards. The courtyards in the southeast and west are the new houses used for marriage, and the places where Li Niangniang and Xiao Ling live.
This Li Niangniang was followed by a few maids, and when she saw Ji Qingyi, she walked over and asked, "Went out?"
Ji Qingyi was stunned, because she had only been out of that incident in the morning, she thought that this Li Niangniang should not have a good face when she saw her, but she underestimated this woman who had been immersed in the courtyard of the deep house for a long time, and their way of doing things was sleek.
Ji Qingyi nodded hurriedly and said, "I went out with the prince."
Li Niangniang stroked her sideburns, stretched her neck and looked at it, "Where is the prince?"
Ji Qingyi lowered his eyes: "The prince has just entered the palace."
Li Niangniang nodded lightly and didn't ask any more. She turned around and took two steps forward, and said, "The day after tomorrow is the emperor's birthday, did Jin'er tell you?"
Ji Qingyi hurriedly replied: "The prince just told me."
Li Niangniang frowned, Xu was not very satisfied with Ji Qingyi's words, but she didn't say anything, turned around and left.
Ji Qingyi breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and went back to her yard, as soon as she entered, she saw Hongchen sitting in that cradle and swaying back and forth, Ji Qingyi quietly walked over, slapped him behind him and said, "What are you doing!"
Hongchen was frightened and jumped up, and Ji Qingyi stared at him funny: "Look at you cowardice."
Hongchen glared at Ji Qingyi angrily: "Don't you walk without a sound?"
Ji Qingyi patted him on the shoulder and said, "I was just going to find you."
"Looking for me?" Hongchen pulled his clothes and said suspiciously, "Is there anything wrong with me?"
Ji Qingyi smiled with a smile on her face, and she walked around Hongchen and said softly: "I want a lot of smoke, do you have a way to make it?"
Hongchen turned his head to look at her and said, "Smoke? You mean the kind of cooking? ”
Ji Qingyi shook his head and said, "No, no, it's too choking."
Hongchen sat back in the rocking chair and said, "Do you want to be particularly immortal?"
