Qin Shou knelt down on one knee, his back was straight, and he replied loudly, "Back to the saint, Weichen doesn't know." ”

Emperor Xi Chaosheng pursed his lips and stared at him for a while without telling him to get up, before he said, "That kind of thing, let Mimi personally reconcile, and she is not afraid of staining her eyes, hmph, isn't this a crime?" ”

Qin Shou was silent, and Concubine Yu looked at her coldly, she would never intercede with him.

"I also heard that you used this matter to coerce Mimi to exchange it for Danshu gold coupons?" Xi Chaosheng asked slowly.

Qin Shou glanced at Concubine Yu, "That's what happened." ”

Even if he agreed, Xi Chaosheng didn't get angry, he just looked at Qin Shou like that, and asked word by word, "Qin Aiqing, what do you think now?" ”

Qin Shou thought about it for a while, and immediately changed his tone, "The Danshu gold coupon is not good for the minister's custody, but the minister does not want to repent, and threatens the queen's affairs, which is really the minister's fault, but it is all because the minister is ashamed of the emperor's love for the Qin family, so he wants to get the Danshu gold coupon back." ”

Concubine Yu squinted her eyes and pinched him with disdain, this person is such a snob, he is the same in front of her, and he is the same in front of the emperor, who said that he is not flattering? It's just that the people who please are obscure.

The emperor thought slightly, "The Danshu gold coupon can be returned to Aiqing, but Aiqing should tell me about this matter, where can Mimi be in charge." ”

Qin Shou hooked the corners of his mouth, "Yes, Weichen didn't think it well and was willing to be punished." ”

Xi Chaosheng spoke well, he bent down and personally helped the person up, "Aiqing is the minister of the humerus, where can I give it, but the queen's matter is very important, I really listen to what Mimi said, Aiqing has a way to deal with it, so I will give credit for it." ”

Qin Shou had no choice but to respond, "Minister, knock on Longen." ”

Concubine Yu, who heard the end from the beginning to the end, widened her eyes, she looked at the two gentlemen and ministers who were in harmony, and for a moment she felt that her previous tricks were simply unacceptable, and she didn't see her brother deduct the Qin family's Danshu gold coupon in a few words, and let Qin Shou do things for nothing willingly.

She seemed to have been opened a novel door by Xi Chaosheng, and she couldn't help but sigh that it turned out that she could still make such a method.

Xi Chaosheng has been paying attention to this concubine, and when he saw her contemplative face, he knew that most of them had learned a little bit.

Doing so is actually against his heart, but as an emperor, he has to use such imperial techniques from time to time.

Xi Chao asked suddenly, "I don't know why Aiqing asked me to bring Sima Taijun to hurry over?" ”

Concubine Yu suddenly realized, and she said, how did her brother go up the mountain with Sima Taijun, it was originally Qin Shou's means.

Sure enough, I listened to Qin Shou's expressionless words, "The Sima family, as the minister of the saint, and the noble family of the emperor of the Three Dynasties, has always been the most selfish and selfish in the golden mean, you must know that a country does not exist, how can there be a family, so now, it is a good time for the sage to let the Sima family completely surrender." ”

Xi Chaosheng is not stupid, indecision does not mean that he does not have those crooked thoughts, but he often has too many ideas, and he can't decide which one to use, yes, as soon as Qin Shou said this, he understood.

He rested his waist with one hand, and behind his back with the other, walked back and forth a few steps, and collided with Qin Shou's eyes, and in an instant, the two of them tacitly understood it, but they already understood a lot.

Concubine Yu didn't understand, but with Qin Shou intervening in this matter, she knew that the fate of the Sima family was almost doomed.

Xi Chaosheng and Qin Shou didn't talk about anything else, and the two also went to see Master Xuanming together, but as for Concubine Yu, she was driven back by Xi Chaosheng to rest, and sternly warned her that she didn't need to be involved in this matter.

Concubine Yu went back to the room depressedly, she didn't have to drink medicine today, because she had recovered from her illness at the beginning of her life, she had no taste in her mouth, so she used several small snacks made by Ji Xia, and she couldn't use up two or three pieces of jade Xifu, but she gave them all to the little novice in the temple.

In the evening, there was a message from the emperor's side, saying that he invited the concubine and the concubine to go to the queen's small courtyard for dinner.

Concubine Yu didn't want to go, she felt like Sima Chuxue's face.

However, Qin Shou came over and whispered, "The princess doesn't want to watch a good show?" ”

In this way, Concubine Yu reluctantly changed her clothes and passed, and Xifu seemed to be a little afraid of Emperor Xi Chaosheng, so she stayed in the wing, and Concubine Yu ordered Ji Xia to accompany her.

When they arrived at the ground, not only the emperor and queen were there, but even Sima Taijun was also there, and Master Xuanming and Deshe were also listed.

Concubine Yu sneered, immediately gathered her thoughts, and put on the princess's shelf, except for the emperor, she didn't give a good face.

is so pampered and willful, but it makes the people next to him take it for granted, after all, the pampered golden branches and jade leaves that grow up should not be such a style.

The emperor and the empress sat on high positions, Concubine Yu and Qin Shou sat under the emperor's left hand, and on the opposite side were Sima Taijun and Master Xuanming, but Deshe could only stand behind Master Xuanming.

The importance of the status is clear at the same time.

He is dressed in a gray monk's robe like Xuanming, with a string of Buddhist beads wrapped around his wrists, and his eyebrows are raised, even if he has a bald head with a ring scar, it does not damage his half of his pure and elegant atmosphere, and the whole person wants to be a faint sandalwood, light and refreshing cordial.

If you don't know that he has a belly of male prostitutes and female thieves, even the concubine will have a good impression of him.

And Concubine Yu speculated that in his previous life, he had to take the initiative to find Qin Shou under his command, maybe it was because of Sima Chuxue, after all, if the emperor's brother had a case, he would have a chance to get Sima Chuxue.

In fact, the end result is not like that.

Although she didn't ask Qin Shou about Sima Chuxue's fate, she could imagine that there was someone who was about to be named a national teacher, so where could it be bad?

At this time, Concubine Yu deliberately glanced at Sima Chuxue a few times, and saw that she couldn't look at it, as if she didn't know it at all, she was disdainful, and condensation came out of her face.

The long table was full of delicate and delicious fasting rice, and the emperor glanced around and sighed, "The last time I used the fasting rice of Putuo Temple was many years ago, and the queen had not yet entered the palace." ”

Queen Sima Chuxue smiled slightly, dignified and generous, "That saint can use more tonight." ”

The Emperor nodded, "That's what the Empress said. ”

Immediately after that, everyone listened to his words, "However, the queen has often come to Putuo Temple over the years, and has stayed for a few days from time to time. ”

The queen glanced at him with disgust, and then picked up the fruit in front of her, "Then the concubine will punish herself with three cups, and the saint can calm his anger?" ”

The fruit is also a kind of wine brewed by the monks in the temple, but it can't actually be said to be wine, because it is pickled with seasonal fresh fruits, but it is really sweet and delicious, and it is not too intoxicating, so it is named fruit brewing.

Seeing that the queen was so knowledgeable, Xi Chaosheng smiled meaningfully, and he clapped his hands and instructed Gong'e, "Be full with the queen." ”

Filled with three fruits in a row, the queen smiled and raised her wide sleeves, half-concealed and drank them all.

In this way, the emperor can be regarded as calming down, and he holds the bamboo chopstick, "Use it all." ”

Only then did the people at the table follow suit.

A meal took nearly half an hour, during which the queen drank the most stuffed fruits, and the concubine also wanted to use some, but Qin Shou blocked his hand, and his eyebrows stretched and said softly, "The princess is not in good health, come from Kyushu." ”

After speaking, without giving Concubine Yu a chance to react, he grabbed the wine cup and drank it all.

Concubine Yu smiled at the corner of her mouth, but the smile did not reach the bottom of her eyes, and Sima Taijun next to her also quipped, "Don Ma, you are really considerate, it should be like this." ”

The horse turned the empty wine cup, suddenly hooked his lips and smiled, looked at the concubine with deep and hazy phoenix eyes, and laughed in a low voice, "Where is it, such a delicate person, who is willing to let her be bad?" ”

Concubine Yu made Qin Shou's eyes and tone tingle, and she wanted to stay away from him, but in front of everyone's eyes, she had to deal with it with a stiff smile.

After a meal, the group moved to the cool courtyard.

The octagonal palace lamp was lit in the courtyard, bright as day, and everyone sat around, and first discussed the scriptures and Buddhism with Master Xuanming.

Even has a place to give up, and can talk eloquently.

Concubine Yu dozed off when she listened, Qin Shou found an excuse and went back with Concubine Yu, and the emperor also turned his head to the queen and said, "The hour is not early, the queen and Sima Taijun will also go to rest first, and I will talk to the little master of Dekong about Xingtou, and there will be a while." ”

The queen did not refuse, she got up, her eyes flashed over everyone, and she didn't miss anything on Deshe, Sima Taijun beckoned to her, and the two grandparents wanted to take it away.

In this way, in the entire courtyard, only the emperor and Xuanming master and apprentice remained.

The three of them continued the conversation at first, until mid-hour, when the emperor saw that Deshe had a sleepy face, so he smiled and said, "The little master of Deshe should go and rest." ”

After speaking, he also glanced at Xuan Ming, Xuan Ming was silent, but he understood it at once, this was mostly something to discuss, and it was inconvenient for him to be present.

Deshe got up, saluted the emperor with his hands folded, nodded to Xuan Ming, and then wanted to go back to his own meditation room.

As soon as he left, the emperor poured himself herbal tea, sipping it slowly, and he drank the small tea cup for a quarter of an hour.

Xuan Ming still had a compassionate smile on his face, and he didn't open his mouth to ask, just like a Buddha carving to accompany the emperor.

The emperor poured the second cup of herbal tea, and he said lukewarmly, "The incense in the temple is not bad, and it is close to the capital, and the queen often comes over. ”

Master Xuanming was stunned for a moment, he twisted the Buddha beads with one hand, and said with one hand, "Amitabha, the old man is up and down in the temple, thank the saint for his grace." ”

The emperor nodded, as if this matter didn't matter.

He drank the second cup of herbal tea in his hand, then picked up his robe, flicked his sleeves and said, "There is a place where I want to invite Master Xuanming to go with me, I don't know what Master thinks?" ”

Xuan Ming followed and got up, and he obeyed everything.

Emperor Xi Chaosheng's peach blossom eyes, which were exactly the same as Concubine Yu's, bent at the end of his eyes, hiding the coldness at the bottom of his eyes, he stretched out his hand and took the lead, taking the first step, and went straight to the direction of the queen's wing.
