Chapter 41: Tricks and Calculations
In order to leave a good image in front of Qilin Yi, Ruoqing deliberately straightened his waist, and only sat on one-third of the stool, pretending to bow his head shyly.
Don't look at this action is very common, but if Wanqing knows that the way he lowers his head is a few points more beautiful than usual from the front. Then stretch the neck a little longer, and everything looks natural and casual.
Although Qilin Yi is only 22 years old, because he is the prince, his personal style must be checked, at least on the surface. So in the eyes of the foreign ministers, their prince should still be a little pure.
But who can know that although Qilin Yi never looks for flowers and asks willows, the maids around him are as skinny as clotted fat and beautiful as flowers. Pick any one out and kill Ruo Wanqing in seconds, so ah, he is really indifferent to Ruo Wanqing's posture.
After a while, Xiao Er went upstairs with food, and the guards stopped him, checked it with a silver needle, and only after everything was safe did he let Xiao Er in.
Xiao Er was already nervous, and as soon as the drug test was delayed, he actually stuttered. Qilin Yi was a little impatient to hear him report the name of the dish, and interrupted him with a wave of his hand, telling him to get out as soon as possible.
As soon as these words came out, the little two ran away as if they were about to be amnesty.
This little episode didn't seem to bother Ruo Wanqing and Qilin Yi's Yaxing, and the two were still talking and laughing about some irrelevant things.
"You said you were born in Qujing City since you were a child?" Qilin Yi wiped his mouth and rinsed his tea.
"The folk girl has lived in Qujing City since she was a child." If the late Qing Dynasty also had questions to answer, there was no hesitation at all.
"Is your mother okay?" Qilin Yi asked as if unintentionally.
As soon as Qilin Yi's words fell, Ruo Wanqing's eyes flashed, and he said while crying: "Mother ...... when she gave birth to Qing's child And he went. After saying that, the tears flowed more freely.
Qilin Yi sighed, sat down beside Ruo Wanqing, and took her into his arms. Ruo Wanqing was shocked, there was a hint of joy and a hint of unease.
"Lone didn't expect it to be like this, hurt Qing'er so sad, it's Lonely."
Qilin Yi patted Ruo Wanqing's back, and then asked, "Then who is in charge of the family now?" Do you have a sister? ”
Ruo Wanqing felt a little uncomfortable when she heard it, is this Qilin Yi interested in her or interested in Ruo Mengning? Although it was unpleasant, Ruo Wanqing still replied obediently: "The second aunt is in charge at home, and Qing'er has a sister-in-law named Ruo Mengning, but she is ......."
"Oh? Just what? Qilin Yi pretended to be curious and asked if he was in the late Qing Dynasty.
Seeing that Qilin Yi asked according to his own routine, if the late Qing Dynasty began to sob, the sad look was simply a great grievance.
Qilin Yi snorted coldly in his heart, and then said in a gentle voice: "Qing'er, don't cry, tell Lone to listen, Lone will call the shots for you." ”
Ruo Wanqing was sobbing and matching, while grabbing Qilin Yi's clothes with his hands, the whole person almost lay on him. Then Ai Ai said, "My mother went early, and my father was busy with business. The second aunt is in charge of the middle shortage, and lack of food and clothing is commonplace for Qing'er. My sister is also disrespectful to me, and the maid doesn't treat me as a master. Qing'er can live to see His Royal Highness until now, which is a blessing that Qing'er has cultivated for several lifetimes. ”
Because Ruo Wanqing lowered his head, he didn't see Qilin Yi's disgusted eyes.
"Lone heard that you and the gentleman's family ......" Qilin Yi decided not to make a detour with Ruo Wanqing, and went straight to the point.
Ruo Wanqing, who was still sad just now, heard this, and her heart "chuckled". What does he mean by that? Could it be that the rumor reached Qilin Yi's ears?
Thinking that his glory and wealth might turn into a phantom, Ruo Wanqing was a little anxious, and for a while he forgot that he was still pretending to cry, and hurriedly explained: "Qing'er and Jun Mufeng are innocent, please Your Highness Mingjian." ”
"Oh? Is it? Qilin Yi was noncommittal to her words, and only asked rhetorically.
"What Qing'er said is the truth, Jun Mufeng is thinking about Xue Luoyan, and he really has nothing to do with Qing'er." In order to pick himself out, Ruoqing did not hesitate to say the falling geese.
"Xue Luoyan? The Xue family? Qilin Yi pondered after hearing this. Could it be the one that Ning Guifei praised? ”
Yes, it is not a secret that Ning Guifei likes Qin Yuli's embroidered congratulatory gift in the harem, and in order to please Ning Guifei, his father listened to Qilinxi's words, and the transfer of Xue Qi to the capital is also known to the whole dynasty.
If the late Qing Dynasty saw that Qilin Yi did not speak, he was even more anxious, but when he saw that Qilin Yi seemed to be thinking about something, he was not good at disturbing himself, so he had to continue to half-hang in Qilin Yi's arms.
After a long time, Qilin Yi finally moved.
I saw him reach out and wipe Ruo Wanqing's face, looked at Ruo Wanqing with gentle eyes, and said with a smile: "I don't know, I think I picked up a little flower cat alone." He got up and sat back in his place, but when he turned around, the tenderness in his eyes was gone, and all that was left was the bottomless cold.
Ruo Wanqing was a little happy and a little disappointed, it seems that the prince did not doubt himself. The disappointment is that he cannot continue to stay in the arms of the prince.
Qilin Yi saw that the question was almost the same, so he didn't want to say anything to Ruowan Qingxu and the snake, and got up and said: "There are still important things to deal with, so I won't stay for long, and Qing'er will be careful on the way back." ”
If the late Qing Dynasty saw that Qilin Yi left like this after speaking, he didn't say when he would see him next time, nor did he say that he would send himself back to Ruo's house, and he couldn't help but feel a little anxious in his heart.
After Qilin Yi returned to the East Palace, he took off the clothes on his body and threw them to the maid, and then said: "Go and burn this clothes for Lone, it's really unlucky." ”
Then he summoned his own cronies Tang Ji, Tang Ji grew up with Qilin Yi since he was a child, he was bought back by the prince from the slave market, so he was unusually loyal to the prince.
Seeing that the prince had something to command, he knelt on one knee and waited quietly.
Qilin Yi thought for a while and said to him: "From today onwards, you will go to Qujing City and give Gu an eye on the Xue Qi family of the county commander, if there is any change in his family, you will fly the pigeon and pass the book to Gu." Wait until when Xue Qi enters Beijing, and when will you come back to restore your life. ”
Tang Ji replied: "Yes!" After that, he left the room.
For Tang Ji, his life is equivalent to that given by the prince. Therefore, if the unicorn is easy to let him go east, he will never go west. Regardless of whether the orders given to him by Qilin Yi are right or not, he will carry them out according to his orders.
"Xue Luoyan." Qilin Yi looked at the table and playfully read that this thing is really getting more and more fun, the bigger the chessboard, the more chess pieces will be placed, just see who can have the last laugh.
