Chapter 24: The Xue Family

Jun Mufeng looked at Qilinxi's series of actions and was curious and wanted to ask, but he couldn't help thinking about it, who knows what kind of character this Qilinxi is, he can't keep if he doesn't say a word about this little life, for the sake of his own bright future, he still shouldn't talk too much. So he continued to pretend to be dumb there, silently drinking the tea on the table.

Qi Linxi didn't want to explain to Jun Mufeng, and after finishing the order, he turned around and ate the dim sum on the table, "The tea is too bitter and I don't like it, anyway, I don't drink much tea, so let's eat pastries." Kirin Xi thought.

This picture is really a little awkward, 10-year-old Jun Mufeng is drinking bitter mustard tea expressionlessly, and his brows are not wrinkled; 14-year-old Qilinxi picked up the pastries one bite after another, and the sugar on his hands was still in his mouth to lick it, to say that the royal etiquette rules are really not a little, but there is more of the breath of the prodigal son of the rivers and lakes, if it weren't for him to report his family, ordinary people would only think that he was a rich man. I really don't know whether Jun Mufeng is too old or Qilin Xi is too casual, but these two people didn't notice it, and they just sat there for a long time, each thinking about it without saying a word, and the room was quiet only with the sound of pouring tea and the slightest hint of chewing.

The two of them were silent with each other here, and the Xue Mansion exploded over there. Not long after Xue Qi sat down at home, he saw Steward Xu hurriedly running in front of him, this Steward Xu was old after all, and the distance from the gate of the house to the front yard was only a few hundred meters, but he was already sweating profusely. Finally ran in front of Xue Qi, only to see Steward Xu wipe his forehead, and said in a panic: "Master, King Yaoxing has come to Qujing City, saying that dinner will be used in the house." Xue Qi was stunned for a moment after hearing this, thinking that there was something wrong with his ears, and asked again: "What did you say?" The Shining Star King is here? "Yes! The prince's cronies are holding waist cards at the gate! "Hurry! Please come in! ”。

Xue Qi never dreamed that the Bright Star King would come, not to mention the side, as far as his six-grade petty official was concerned, it stands to reason that if it wasn't for the prince receiving some holy decree to do something, he wouldn't be able to see the prince anyway, let alone that the prince was going to eat in the mansion, this time it would be embarrassing for Xue Qi! How can this Buddha be offered by himself so that nothing goes wrong? Xue Qi's mind turned, thinking about it, it seemed that he had always been keeping to himself and had not done anything to despise the imperial power, and he had not come to trouble himself with this Yaoxing King, thinking of this, Xue Qi also felt a little more relaxed in his heart.

It didn't take much effort, Steward Xu hurriedly welcomed a saber guard into the door, and the guard didn't talk nonsense to Xue Qi, holding up the waist card and said in a commanding tone: "On the order of the Bright Star King, the prince will come to the Xue Mansion tonight, please Lord Xue get ready." Xue Qi dared to say anything more now, and hurriedly knelt down and replied: "Minister, Xue Qi, get the order." Seeing that the news had arrived, the guards turned around and walked out of Xue's mansion quickly, and returned to the railing to resume their lives.

Xue Qi said that it was fake if he was not nervous, he hadn't seen the Shining Star King yet, and he felt that he was already on pins and needles, after all, he couldn't think of any reason for this Shining Star King to come to this Qu Jingcheng, "Forget it!" The head has fallen off the bowl and has a big scar, let's take one step at a time! Thinking of this, Xue Qi beckoned to Steward Xu and asked him to call Master Liu, telling him not to make any mistakes in today's dinner, and repeatedly finalized what dishes to serve.

After arranging the food, he called Qin Yuli and explained the matter roughly, asking her to take care of the maids and maids in the inner courtyard, and not to cause any trouble to the Xue Mansion, after all, I heard that although this Yaoxing King is already 14 years old, the position of the princess is still vacant, and such a large piece of fragrant dumplings is left there, doesn't it make people have crooked thoughts?

Xue Qi can't control others, but if something happens to the Yaoxing King in the Xue Mansion, he will be doomed. After finishing these things, the sky gradually darkened, and Xue Qi looked at it and missed it even more, almost this Bright Star King should also come.

Qilin Xi really couldn't understand Jun Mufeng, saying that he was deep, and he didn't behave like it in front of the strange merchant; Let's say that he is simple, I'm afraid it's just superficial simplicity, if it weren't for knowing that he could speak, Qilin Xi would almost think that Jun Mufeng was a dumb person!

However, Qilin Xi is not worried about Jun Mufeng's personality, he has been impregnated in the royal family for so many years, and often appears in various places as a businessman, what kind of dirty and dirty thing he has never seen? Take 10,000 steps back, his identity is here, how many lives does he have to play? So this friend is still worth making, and maybe it can be used in the future. After all, his prince's brother is so suspicious that he has to prepare more back roads for himself, otherwise when his father leaves and the prince succeeds to the throne, his life may not be easy.

After a while, a knock on the door interrupted Qilinxi's train of thought, and when he looked up, he heard the guards coming and going, and the matter had been done, Qilinxi looked at the sky, and wanted to come to Xue's Mansion to prepare for a while, it would only make people restless if he went so early, it was better to stay in this teahouse with Jun Mufeng for a while, at least for now, it seems that this Jun Mufeng is not afraid of himself.

Jun Mufeng actually really wanted to leave in his heart, he wanted to give the cloak to Xiao Yan'er earlier, but the big Buddha in front of him had no intention of leaving, so he had no choice but to drink tea silently. The atmosphere gradually became more awkward than it began, and Kirin Xi also felt it, pretending to cough, thinking that it was not a way to just sit like this, so he began to find a topic.

"Your business is so big, do you have the idea of going to the capital?" Jun Mufeng looked at Qilinxi after listening, and saw that he seemed to be asking casually and not testing himself, so he replied: "Although Qu Jingcheng is not as prosperous as the capital, there are not many powerful people, so there are not so many things to worry about. ”

Although this is the reason, Qilin Xi has never liked to play cards according to common sense, and said in a somewhat encouraging tone: "Although there are many powerful people, they also get a lot, don't you have any ideas at all?" "Now Zijun Mufeng is really not sure what the prince in front of him is going to do, how can he listen to this tone like he wants to pull people into the gang? Could it be that being a prince can really idle him like this? Jun Mufeng pondered for a moment and replied: "The Jun family does not have any relatives in the capital, so I am afraid that it will be unstable for a while. Let's wait for my father to think it through before deciding. ”,

Qi Linxi was also a little surprised, although he had the intention of joking and tempting, but shouldn't ordinary people just go on the donkey at this time? Is this Jun Mufeng really stupid or pretending to be stupid? Qi Linxi looked at Jun Mufeng's eyes, and saw that the latter did not dodge, so he stopped dwelling on this issue, looked out the window, and felt that it was almost time to leave, and got up and said to Jun Mufeng: "If you think clearly, you can write to me at any time." He left the room without looking back, got on the horse surrounded by the guards, and walked in the direction of the Xue family, leaving Jun Mufeng alone by the railing to savor what he had just said.
