Xie Fu's hand wrapped around his waist: "According to the talent and conduct of the third sister, there is no need to let the Zhongzheng official go to the assessment, I will be specially approved by the imperial pen...... Allowed her to go to Lantai as a school secretary. Lantai Academy is full of old sour Confucians, and they are lacking a young torrent. ”

She called her the third sister according to Fengjun's relationship, which was the emperor's favor to the Xue family.

Xue Minghuai was not moved by this kind of pampering, turned his head, and said to Xie Fu: "The assessment of the central official is a routine for selecting talents, how can you make an exception, Your Majesty Longen, it's just-"

Before the words fell, Xie Fu interrupted him, "Could it be that this kind of trivial matter also requires the prime minister and Jiuqing to be invited, and let the scholars comment on the advice, I have to listen to them?" ”

Xue Minghuai clenched his fingers and slowly lowered his voice: "Lantai Qinggui, Your Majesty has raised your love." ”

The Lantai school secretary is indeed a very noble and idle position, and many ambitious scholars and girls have no ambitions, and their lifelong goal is only to enter Lantai and make friends with major nobles in it. Lantai is an important way for nobles to enter the officialdom, and it is a channel for the rise of both leisure and nobility.

But this upward channel is not suitable for the only daughter in the family.

If the central officials are evaluated and hired by the officials to join the court, most of the capable and talented people will gradually enter the military government. In the military government, there is the judgment and experience of the current situation, and there is the opportunity to be ordered to lead the troops. Today's world is not stable, such a world of great controversy, arrogant girls will choose to enter the military government to establish meritorious careers, instead of drinking and having fun with a group of hermits, dispersing and talking, let alone indulging in entertainment and living a mediocre life with a group of nobles in Lantai, completely forgetting the mountains and rivers.

This is also the reason why Xue Minghuai wants to refuse.

"Holy grace is hard to do." Xie Fu lowered his head and said in his ear, holding his waist tightly with his palm, "Xue Sikong is in his prime, and in another twenty years, when the important ministers of Fengge and Luantai return to their hometowns, and the place is vacant, are you afraid that there will be no place for the third sister?" ”

After that, the emperor raised his hand and ordered: "Draft the decree." ”

Xue Minghuai's hand was grabbed by her, and he whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Don't go too far. ”

"Who's the excesses?" Xie Fu laughed and asked him rhetorically, "Do you have to let your family be the most important positions in the world, so is the surname Xie or Xue in this world?" ”

"She hasn't married yet, she's a young girl, and you're afraid of even such a child......" Xue Minghuai said.

Xie Fu was unimpressed by such accusations. It is true that she was able to ascend to the throne without the help of the Xue family. When the emperor died, the eight phoenixes seized the heir, and it was she who asked to marry Xue Minghuai and pulled a big nobleman like Jingzhao Xue under her banner, and finally sat firmly in this position.

But so what?

The loyal ministers who used to be loyal to her and braved the condemnation of the world for her have become a thorn in the flesh that worries her day and night. Prime Minister Wang Cheng has no biological daughter, no matter how powerful Wang Xiu is, he will be killed, but Xue Zeshu's own daughter is in front of him!

The female history quickly drew up the purpose.

The emperor stared at Xue Yuxiao and came forward to pick him up. The third sister showed neither displeasure nor ecstasy, and she seemed to be happy to accept it...... By the way, she also brought a side gentleman into the palace.

Xie Fu wanted to take a look at the Pei family's son, but Xue Yuxiao's figure happened to block him, and he didn't show it at all.

……

With the emperor here, the brother and sister couldn't talk much.

After the two saluted and thanked them, they had to leave the palace before the palace gate was locked according to the rules. Not long after Xue Yuxiao took Pei Lang out of the Jiaofang Palace, a servant trotted over from behind and said: "Feng Jun asks Pei Langjun to go back, and he has a few words to tell him in person." ”

Xue Yuxiao frowned: "Just call him?" ”

The servant said, "Yes." Although you are a relative, the harem is mostly in and out of the harem, which is inconvenient. ”

"Okay." Xue Yuxiao looked at Pei Yuxue, the two looked at each other, and they didn't say much.

Pei Yuxue said softly: "I understand, you don't have to worry. ”

Xue Yuxiao nodded slightly, and the two parted under the red eaves corridor. The female envoy who led the way in front did not stop, and said attentively: "Xue Sanniang, please, Xiao Langjun will come to Fengjun for training, it is estimated that you will have to wait for a while, you go to the front to rest for a while." ”

The envoy took her to a quiet tearoom and prepared tea for her to eat. Xue Yuxiao waited here for a while, a little unable to sit still, his fingers knocking on the table as if nothing.

The accompanying female envoy took the initiative to offer: "I'll go to the Jiaofang Hall to help you inquire and inquire." ”

Xue Yuxiao said: "There is a noble person in Laonei." ”

The maids in the palace are all of high grade, and the foreign ministers respect them and call them "nobles". Individual male slaves in the palace will also receive the honor of being called nobles because of their high status and special favor by their masters.

Not long after the envoy left, Xue Yuxiao glanced at the incense burner in the room. There was a faint smell of herbs in the stove, and the smell was a little choking, so she stood up and opened the windows of the tea room to let the air from outside pour in, and the surroundings were bright and bright.

As soon as it is ventilated, the smell of incense becomes very light. Xue Yuxiao's mind was fixed, and he suddenly felt that something was not right.

She pushed the door open, turned back as she remembered it had been, hurried through the two corridors, and slammed into a man head-on at the turn. The person who came was wearing a scarlet shirt, and before Xue Yuxiao could see her face clearly, one hand grabbed her arm violently, and the whole person's body was over-

Xue Yuxiao staggered back two steps, and someone grabbed her and poured her into a palace room next to her. This room seems to have been used by slaves to make tea, and the decoration is simple. Xue Yuxiao tripped over the threshold and fell to the ground, seeing the young man in the scarlet shirt close the door, he sat on Xue Yuxiao's waist, his hands pressed her shoulders hard, and the sound of clanging golden locks sounded on his body.

"Let go." Xue Yuxiao was unusually calm, "Who are you?" ”

He chuckled lowly, a little too ruddy drunkenness on his face, and said, "Guess what." ”

Xue

Yuxiao's hand pulled the bow and descended the horse, even if he was unprepared for a while, he was completely restored at this moment. Without hesitation, she pushed the man away, and was about to leave, when the search of a servant sounded outside the door.

"It's strange, the third lady was here just now, where did she go?"

"Do you see clearly? His Highness is here too. Let's split up. ”

Xue Yuxiao's original action of pushing the door suddenly paused when he heard the words "Your Highness".

"You want to get out like that?" The man narrowed Danfeng's eyes, and a slightly drunken smile appeared on his face, "You go out like this, which of us can say clearly?" ”

His long hair was scattered, his inky black strands were soft and lazy over his shoulders and back, and he wore a torn red robe with gold stripes embroidered on the placket. The man was handsome and beautiful, with a cinnabar mark on his eyebrows, red as blood.

Xue Yuxiao's eyes swept over, and when he saw the golden longevity lock on his chest, as well as the bells worn on his wrists and ankles, his thoughts were slightly sluggish: "Thank you, don't you doubt?" ”

This time, I was surprised. He said, "The third lady knows me? ”

Xue Yuxiao turned around and saluted: "Fourth Highness." ”

This is the younger brother of Emperor Xie Fu, the fourth in line, who lives in the Coral Palace.

He took half a step forward, hooked Xue Yuxiao's shirt with his hand, and whispered: "The third lady's courage is too small, whether I am 'Your Highness' or not, since I am in my arms, how can I refuse it?" As long as I call the servants outside to come in, according to the current situation, you don't have to worry about Wang Lang, isn't it good to marry the royal family......"

Before he finished speaking, Xue Yuxiao immediately made a decision, and suddenly raised his hand to cover his mouth.

Xie Budo's eyes widened and let out a muffled "whine" sound. Xue Yuxiao was afraid that he would still be able to scream, so he grabbed his neck with his other hand and hit the opponent's lower abdomen with his knee, pressing Xie Budo to his knees.

Fine sweat overflowed from pain on his forehead, and he was awakened from drunkenness. Xue Yuxiao was listening intently to the voices outside.

…… There was something wrong with the incense in the tea room, and she found out in advance and walked out, so that these servants could not find the "scene of catching the rape", otherwise it would really be the same as Xie Budo said, she would not only have to bear the charge of insulting His Royal Highness, but also had to be forced by the pressure of the royal family to marry him.

Did marrying him turn out badly? No, it's not very bad, it's just that you can't participate in politics! Not to mention that it has been twenty years, if she marries Xie Budo, she will not want to make an inch of progress in the officialdom in this life, and the prince's wife is not allowed to participate in politics, this is the ancestral rule of the Qi Dynasty.

“…… It's strange, why is there no such a big person? ”

"This is a matter of losing my head, hurry up and look carefully, and the side gentleman of the third lady will come back later-that one can't hold on."

"Don't worry, I'm not much more anxious than you."

The slaves who passed by outside were one after another.

Xue Yuxiao gathered his palms, and his finger bones made bright red finger marks on his throat. Xie Budo couldn't even make a "woo" sound, he stared at Xue Yuxiao deadly, his body curled up by the pain, and finally opened his mouth to bite Xue Yuxiao's palm.

He showed no mercy at all.

Xue Yuxiao's palm was immediately bitten and bloody, and scarlet blood snaked down the root of her palm, dripping bright blood marks.

Blood dripped into his shirt.

Xue Yuxiao tightened her brows in pain, but she didn't say a word, still covering Xie Budo's mouth until there was no sound outside the door, and all the servants went elsewhere to look for it.

In the thick smell of rust, Xue Yuxiao exhaled a deep and slow breath and said in a low voice, "You just need to nod, or shake your head." ”

Xie Budo stared at her eyes, these phoenix eyes with drunken intent were completely awake at the moment, and his eyes were like a knife, which could cut into Xue Yuxiao's flesh.

"Did someone else send you?" Xue Yuxiao asked.

Xie Budo didn't say anything, his mouth was covered, and he couldn't even lick off the blood stains on the rubbing.

Xue Yuxiao's hand holding his throat tightened again, the air was squeezed clean little by little, and even his breathing was restricted. Xie Budo had to raise his head, sucking air from her palm with difficulty, the Adam's apple rolled hard, and the white and injured neck seemed to be cut off alive by her in the next moment.

After a while, Xie Budo nodded effortlessly.

Xue Yuxiao let go of his hand a little and continued to ask: "Is it really Fengjun who asked Pei Lang to return to the Jiaofang Palace?" Or did His Majesty pass the word on his behalf? ”

Xie Budo looked at her.

Xue Yuxiao corrected the question: "Your Majesty nodded." ”

Xie Budo nodded.

That's all it takes. Xue Yuxiao asked, "Will Pei Yuxue be in danger?" ”

Xie Budo was stunned and shook his head.

Xue Yuxiao breathed a sigh of relief and said expressionlessly: "I let go of the hand covering you now, if you dare to shout, I promise that I will take the first step before being heard." Your Highness, I know that you don't want to marry me either, otherwise you wouldn't have dissuaded me from going out at the beginning. ”

She observed Xie Budo's expression and slowly let go of her hand.

He really didn't scream, and the corners of his lips were all stains of blood that had just bitten Xue Yuxiao. Xie Budo fell to the ground, his long hair was winding, and the corners of his forehead were fine sweat from pain, he covered his lower abdomen, and said intermittently in a dumb voice: "Bastard...... I'll kill you. ”

Xue Yuxiao said: "Offend Your Highness." ”

"You-" Xie Budo stood up, like a wounded red chain snake, "You are so ruthless and violent, do you think I am willing to seduce you?" ”

Xue Yuxiao said: "I know, what you are seducing is only the daughter of the Xue family, it doesn't matter what kind of person I am." ”

She got up to leave, but the two of them were twisted together in the grappling just now. Xue Yuxiao was stunned for a moment and untied the tangled straps.

Xie Budo lay on the ground and didn't get up, such a dusty environment really didn't match his red clothes and his background. But Xie Budo didn't care, he gasped for breath, let the fresh air pour into his lungs, and while he evened his breath, he lowered his eyes and watched her undress.

Xue Yuxiao couldn't solve it for a while, he was still laughing while watching, his chest rose and fell, and he said lazily: "Stupid." ”

Xue Yuxiao glanced at him, simply ripped off the waist ornament on his clothes, and held it in his hand, leaving only Xie Budo's clothes and belts wrapped together.

Xie Budo was slightly stunned: "You...... Impulsive and reckless. ”

Xue Yuxiao stood up and said to him, "I haven't seen Your Highness today, and Your Highness hasn't seen me. ”

"You're not afraid that I'll falsely accuse you?" Xie Budo sat up.

Xue Yuxiao's action of opening the door paused slightly, picked up the cold tea next to him, turned around and splashed it on his face, and said calmly: "There is no witness, no physical evidence, Your Highness is complete, drunk and talking nonsense, sober up for you." ”

With that, she pushed the door open and went out.

Xie Budo closed his eyes suddenly, raised his hand to wipe his face, and the cold tea meandered down from between his eyebrows, and his eyelashes were sticky, leaving a wet residue. When he raised his eyes, he couldn't see Xue Yuxiao's figure anymore, Xie Budo clenched his hands, threw the teapot she put back in place on the ground, smashed it to pieces, kicked over the stool in the room, and leaned on the only remaining small table to calm his breathing.

It was almost an hour of incense.

Estimating that Xue Yuxiao had already walked away, Xie Budo came out of the room, returned the same way, and sure enough, he met the servant of the Coral Palace.

"Your Highness, Your Highness......" the young men hurried after him, "your clothes are all gray here, your hair is untied, and you have drunk wine...... Oh, Your Highness, how can you just walk outside like this? Lose the face of the royal family......"

The face of royalty? Full of calculation and suspicion, what face can it have. Xie Budo sneered in his heart and turned a deaf ear.

"Your Highness, your clothes are wet, and there is still blood here, where did you just go? Did you see—"

In order to prevent the servant from mentioning that annoying person, Xie Budo turned his head sharply, looked at several teenagers with the kind of murderous gaze, and said coldly: "No! I fell into the lake. ”

The crowd was silent.
