Chapter 25: The Storm Will Rise
Xu Qingan looked at Zhao Shiyin in shock, and didn't know how to speak for a while.
It took a while for Xu Qingan to gradually calm down, since Zhao Shiyin knew about the relationship between him and Li Man, but she didn't tell Xu Yuan about it, it means that she didn't want to make a big deal about it!
"How do you know?" Xu Qingan picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and asked.
Looking at Xu Qing'an's somewhat puzzled appearance, Zhao Shiyin smiled and said, "Langya Poetry Club, I overheard you when you were chatting!" ”
Xu Qingan suddenly said: "You have already come?" ”
Zhao Shiyin glanced at Xu Qing'an coquettishly and said: "You are bold, you dare to hug and hug in Zizhuxuan, this is me, if anyone else sees it, you will all die!" ”
Xu Qingan said with some embarrassment: "Didn't I think of so much at that time, and this situation will definitely not occur in the future!" ”
"And later? You don't really want to do anything with my cousin, do you? Don't forget your own identity, once the matter between you is exposed, don't say it's your cousin, even the Zongren Mansion will ask you for the crime, right? Zhao Shiyin looked at Xu Qingan with a surprised face, and didn't understand why Xu Qingan did this!
Xu Qingan smiled bitterly and said: "The matter between me and Li Man is not clear for a while, but what you have to know is that King Zhao Xu Yuan's mind is very heavy, and now Li Man's situation is very dangerous, you are now in King Zhao's Mansion, but you can help Li Man!" ”
Zhao Shiyin's face was a little complicated and said, "Why should I help you?" ”
Xu Qingan was stunned for a moment, yes, why did she want to help herself?
It's just that when Xu Qing'an was stunned, Zhao Shiyin suddenly laughed, she looked at Xu Qing'an and said: "Forget it, it should be regarded as repaying your life-saving grace, so that we can be regarded as two clear!" ”
Zhao Shiyin said, then stood up, looked at Xu Qing'an sitting at the table and said, "Tell Aunt Su, I'll go back first, and come to see her next time!" ”
"Also, I know that His Majesty intends to let your nine princes win the heirs in Chang'an, if one day, you can really succeed, I hope you can spare Xu Yuan's life for the sake of me who also helped you!"
Hearing Zhao Shiyin's words, Xu Qingan suddenly turned his head to look at her, Zhao Shiyin turned his head to look at Xu Qingan, and said with a light smile: "After all, he is my cousin after all!" ”
Xu Qing'an looked at Zhao Shiyin steadily, and after a long time, Xu Qing'an nodded and said, "You believe me like that?" But if there ever was a day, I would! ”
"I believe in you, this time I came back to see you, I saw in your eyes an ambition that I had never seen before, I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing, but then I thought about it, this is always good, after all, if you don't participate, I'm afraid you will die, I don't want you to die!" Zhao Shiyin said suddenly.
After saying that, Zhao Shiyin turned around and left here, Xu Qingan was silent for a long time, he didn't know why Zhao Shiyin was really so good to him, was it because he saved her when he fell into the water?
But it's a pity that the memory of his predecessor in Xu Qingan's mind is only after he was ten years old, and the memories before him are already very vague, I don't know if it's because of the amnesia of his predecessor, or the sequelae after he crossed over!
"Alas, forget it, it's useless to think so much, let's take one step at a time!" Xu Qingan sighed and said.
As night fell, Concubine Su, who had been in the imperial dining room for a long time, finally came back, still holding a box in her hand, among which was the osmanthus cake she made herself.
"Where's the girl?" Concubine Su asked.
Xu Qingan fiddled with the teacup in front of him a little bored and said, "I went back a long time ago, saying that I would come to see you next time!" ”
"This girl, when you get back, you will bring some osmanthus cake to Shiyin to taste!" Concubine Su commanded.
Xu Qingan nodded and said, "Got it, concubine!" ”
"Na, An'er try it first, the craftsmanship of the mother concubine has not regressed, right?" Concubine Su smiled and placed a plate of osmanthus cake in front of him.
The faint fragrance of osmanthus came, Xu Qingan picked up a piece and tasted it, it was fragrant but not strong, sweet but not greasy, and the taste was smooth.
"The mother concubine is made of osmanthus cake, I really can't find a word of praise!" Xu Qingan said with admiration.
Concubine Su chuckled and said, "As long as you can speak, you will please the concubine!" ”
Xu Qingan also smiled and said: "Erchen, what he said is also the truth!" ”
Just when the mother and son were laughing, the imperial study.
Emperor Xia had just finished handling government affairs, and a candle flame had already lit in the imperial study, "Gao Yuan, what time is it?" ”
Gao Yuan bowed and said, "Back to Your Majesty, it's already time!" ”
"Oh? Is it already time? Just right, let's let the people in the imperial dining room prepare some food simply! Xia Huang said.
Gao Yuan nodded and was about to go out, when Cao Zhengchun on the side reminded loudly: "Your Majesty, you promised His Royal Highness the Ninth that you would go to Shujiao Hall for dinner tonight!" ”
Emperor Xia was slightly stunned, and then remembered and said: "Yes, yes, I almost forgot about this matter, okay, then set up the Shujiao Palace!" ”
"Yes, Your Majesty, take control of the Shujiao Palace!" Cao Zhengchun said respectfully.
Gao Yuan's eyes on the side flashed slightly, and then he secretly made a gesture to a little eunuch behind him, and the little eunuch immediately walked quickly in another direction.
After doing this, Gao Yuan followed Emperor Xia's Luan to the Shujiao Palace.
Kunning Palace, a graceful and luxurious, beautiful woman in a phoenix robe sits on the top, this is the queen of today's Great Xia.
The queen looked at the eunuch kneeling below, and a pair of Danfeng eyes narrowed slightly: "You mean, Emperor Xia went to Shujiao Hall for dinner tonight?" ”
The little eunuch knelt on the ground with some trepidation, and when he heard the queen's question, he immediately replied: "Back to the queen's mother, yes, the emperor has already set up the Shujiao Palace!" ”
A dangerous light flashed in the queen's phoenix eyes, and then she waved her hand and said, "You go down first!" ”
"Yes!" The little eunuch got up and retreated outside.
Wan'er, the personal maid on the side, walked up, bowed down to the queen's side and said, "Niangniang, do we need to do something?" ”
The queen sighed slightly: "Forget it, at this time, don't use these methods for the time being, and Your Majesty is just going to have a meal, if this palace is even going to teach Concubine Su Shu a lesson, won't everyone in the harem be in danger in the future?" ”
"At that time, Your Majesty should be disgusted with me, and now that my son is taking over the heir, it is better not to make these incidents!"
"Yes, sis!" Wan'er responded respectfully.
But then the queen said: "But you stared at a little Qing'an, I heard that today's disaster relief in the southwest was robbed by His Royal Highness the Nine, and his mother was a little more stable, this little guy is a little jumpy, the palace doesn't like it, you find something for him to do!" ”
Wan'er nodded and said, "Yes, Niangniang, Wan'er will do it!" ”
