Nothing was said all night, and the next morning was unspoken.

The sleepy-eyed Qin Ku straightened up his messy robes, yawned and followed behind the two maidservants, shook his head through the house and courtyard, and went straight to Ling Xiaoxiao's room.

"Deputy fan, Madame is waiting for you inside, please!"

Looking at the two maidservants who were not smiling, Qin Ku was confused and became more and more confused.

When I knocked on the door, the room was dark and lifeless, and it was a very different world from the sun outside.

Ling Xiaoxiao, who had not slept all night, sat quietly at the table like a clay sculpture, her eyes were dull, her expression was inexplicable, even if Qin Ku walked in front of her, she was still unaware, very strange.

"Ahem!"

When Ling Xiaoxiao woke up from her contemplation and saw Qin Ku with a smile on her face, her eyebrows twitched slightly.

"Sit down and talk. ”

"Mrs. Xie!"

Qin Ku's eyes rolled wildly, and he looked around inside and out. When he saw the neat futon on the bed in the inner room, his expression stiffened slightly, and then he pretended to be ignorant, and complimented: "The lord of the mansion got up really early, and he is worthy of being the master of the martial arts alliance with all kinds of opportunities." ”

Hearing this, Ling Xiaoxiao's face changed suddenly, a trace of sadness flashed in the depths of her eyes, and she replied lightly: "The plan of the day lies in the morning." Brother Jin...... It has always been the chaff according to the salary, and the rooster crows. ”

"That's!That's!" Qin Ku nodded repeatedly, "Who is the mansion master? How can he be as lazy as me." ”

"You don't have to be arrogant, if you don't have real talent and real learning, Brother Jin won't promote you exceptionally. ”

Seeing that Ling Xiaoxiao was not annoyed by her ridicule, but asked and answered, Qin Ku's heart couldn't help but be suspicious, and said with a dry smile: "Madam said, you and I try not to meet in the mansion, today...... Why did you call me all of a sudden?"

"It's above board, so why be afraid of the gossip of others?"

"Madame is taught. ”

"No need to compliment. Ling Xiaoxiao waved her hand and said, "How is Liu Xunyi's bottom line?"

Liu Xunyi was extremely wary, and his speech was almost leakless. Qin said guiltily, "But don't worry, Madame, I will continue to look for his flaws." ”

"The more wary you are, the more problematic you are. Ling Xiaoxiao pondered, "Time is running out, I must know whether Liu Xunyi is loyal or traitorous?"

"What do you mean?" Qin said bitterly, "What does 'not much time'?"

Ling Xiaoxiao's eyes changed, and she knew that she had made a mistake, but her face was still calm, and she said indifferently: "The wedding date is getting closer and closer, isn't there not much time?"

"Oh. Qin Ku smiled and said, "There is one thing, I have always wanted to find an opportunity to tell Madame, but I am afraid that Madame will blame ......."

"What?"

"I can't tell you the truth, I have already told my wife what I have done...... Tell Liu Xunyi truthfully. ”

"What?"

With just one word, Ling Xiaoxiao's face changed suddenly, and she scolded angrily: "Qin Ku, you are so bold! I told you a thousand times......

"Madame, be uneasy, and listen to what I have to say. Qin Ku hurriedly explained, "I told Liu Xunyi the truth, not to betray my wife, but to win Liu Xunyi's trust." ”

"Gain trust?" Ling Xiaoxiao snorted coldly, "You betray me, and there are so many excuses?"

"Every word is true!" Qin said bitterly, "Before I went out to him and Pan, I went out early and returned late, deliberately avoiding Liu Xunyi, and didn't have a showdown with him until half a month ago. ”

"Why?"

"Because I want Liu Xunyi to know, this matter has been carefully considered and pondered repeatedly. Qin smiled bitterly, "Only in this way can he believe that I really betrayed Madame." ”

"What's the benefit of this?" At this moment, Ling Xiaoxiao had already heard a hint from Qin Ku's words, the anger on her face gradually dissipated a little, and she said suspiciously, "What are your intentions?"

"Let Liu Xunyi think that I have a deep affection for him, so that he believes me completely, until he lets down his guard and tells me the truth. Hey hey ......"

Looking at Qin Ku's treacherous appearance, Ling Xiaoxiao couldn't help but let out a sneer: "Anti-plot?"

"Exactly! To this day, Liu Xunyi is completely unguarded against me. ”

"Oh?" Ling Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows lightly and asked with a smile, "In that case, do you think Liu Xunyi is loyal or traitorous?"

"Although I dare not say that I am loyal, at least I have no rebellious heart. Qin Ku groaned, "With all due respect, Liu Xunyi doesn't seem to have any feelings for Miss, but he is sincere to King Xian's Mansion. It's normal to think about it, after all, without the Xianwang Mansion, there would be no Liu Xunyi today. ”

"In your opinion, Liu Xunyi is not suspicious?"

"During this time, I hung out with him all day. Every day, in addition to practicing by himself and supervising the practice of the three disciples, the rest is nothing more than eating and drinking, which are all harmless trivial chores. Qin Ku recalled, "By the way, he often went to Lin Fangda for a drink, and they all said that they were friends for eight worships, but I felt that there seemed to be a gap between the two of them." There was hardly any talk at the meeting, just a booze until he got drunk. ”

"Lin Fangda has admired Yu'er since he was a child, and when he sees that his most beloved woman is about to marry a husband, how can he be happy in his heart?"

"Your favorite woman, marry your best brother. Tut-tut, it's really providential. Qin bitterly regretted, "It's a pity that there are lovers who can't end up married, and those who like Miss don't like Miss don't like it." What Miss likes, but doesn't like Miss. Alas, Yue Lao took the wrong red rope and delayed two pairs of mandarin ducks. ”

"Two pairs of mandarin ducks?" Ling Xiaoxiao was curious, and asked rhetorically, "I only know that Lin Fangda has affection for Yu'er, but I don't know who is a pair with Liu Xunyi?"

"Can't Madame see it?" Qin Ku pretended to be mysterious, "Far away in the sky, close in front of you." ”

"You're talking about ......"

"Xun Qin!" Qin pouted bitterly, "During this time, every time they met, they were-for-tat, and they were incompatible, as if they had a grudge in their previous life. I think about it, and there is only one reason, that is, Xun Qin is jealous, and love is born of hate......"

"Okay!" Seeing that Qin Ku was about to talk endlessly, Ling Xiaoxiao couldn't help but be upset, and interrupted, "You don't need to mention boring things, you just need to tell me, Liu Xunyi is this person...... Is it worth trusting?"

"Although he doesn't seem to have a deep affection for the young lady, he ...... I've known him for so long, and I've never seen him look for flowers and willows, steal chickens and touch dogs, and he can be regarded as a righteous gentleman. Qin Ku groaned, "Liu Xunyi's temperament is 'people respect him for a foot, and he respects people for a zhang'." If Madame is willing to be honest with him, I believe it...... He will exchange his heart for his wife. ”

Hearing this, Ling Xiaoxiao couldn't help but be stunned, and said sharply: "Qin Ku, could it be that you have eaten the bear's heart and leopard gall, and you dare to play tricks in front of me?"

Qin was stunned for a moment, and his face showed grievances.

"Don't pretend in front of me!" Ling Xiaoxiao said angrily, "You are not using counter-plots in front of Liu Xunyi, but from the left and right, flattering each other, and doing a double trick!"

"This ......," Qin bitterly cried, "where to start?"

"You keep saying that you betrayed me in order to win Liu Xunyi's trust. At this moment, you are betraying Liu Xunyi, aren't you blinding my vigilance?" Ling Xiaoxiao said coldly, "Clever words, full of evil intentions, and there is not a word of truth in your mouth. ”

Qin Ku's face was displeased, and he retorted: "Catch the thief and take the stolen goods, catch the adulterer in bed! Why should the lady humiliate me?"

"Why?" Ling Xiaoxiao laughed angrily, "Just by the sentence you just said, 'be honest with each other, heart for heart', you obviously want to trick me into telling Liu Xunyi my true thoughts." ”

Qin Ku's eyes widened, and he said angrily: "Madame checks for her daughter, try her own son-in-law, even if she tells Liu Xunyi the truth, what's the matter? As Madame said just now, it is above board, so why be secret?"

As for this, a light of disdain flashed in Qin Ku's eyes, and he teased: "Madame, don't you want to regret it? After using me, she didn't want to give me a reward, so she casually found an excuse to perfunctory me?"

"Presumptuous!" Ling Xiaoxiao reprimanded, "Do you think I'm you?"

"Hehe, of course Madame wouldn't be so stingy. Qin Ku hippie smiled, flamboyant, "I have always had clear accounts, and grievances and grievances are clear." Whoever gives me money, I will do things for whomever I want. If Madame can't trust me, let the little one get out. ”

Ling Xiaoxiao watched Qin Ku's words and deeds closely, was silent for a long time, and suddenly let out a sigh and said bitterly: "That's it! ”

"Madame doesn't have to be reluctant, I have no father or mother since I was a child, and I am poor and short-sighted and thin-skinned, so I really can't stand this kind of grievance......"

Seeing Qin Ku's voice with a crying tone, Ling Xiaoxiao couldn't help but look impatient and said, "It's a big deal...... Last month's bounty will give you more. ”

"Madame is wise!"

Qin Ku turned his face like a book, and his embarrassed and aggrieved face was instantly filled with a kind and respectful smile.

Ling Xiaoxiao hesitated again and again, and said tentatively: "Qin Ku, you ...... Will you be my man?"

"Ah?" Qin Ku was shocked, and fell to his knees with a "poof", and kowtowed again and again as if the chicken was pecking rice, "No! Under the innocence is small, the lady's reputation is big, once the lord of the mansion knows, neither of you and I can eat and walk around......"

"Bastard!" Seeing that Qin Ku misunderstood what she meant, Ling Xiaoxiao couldn't help but blush and said, "It's for you to do things for me, where do you want to go?"

"Do things for you?" Qin looked at Ling Xiaoxiao in a daze, his eyes blinking dozens of times in a row, as if he couldn't react.

"That's it!" Ling Xiaoxiao was physically and mentally exhausted, and had no intention of arguing with Qin Ku, so she took out a stack of silver tickets from her sleeve and threw it on the table, waving her hand and said, "You go down!"

"That'...... Do you still need me to keep an eye on Liu Xunyi?"

"No need. Ling Xiaoxiao said absentmindedly, "You just said that Liu Xunyi has clear grievances and likes to 'exchange hearts for hearts', and if I continue to let you spy on him, won't it make him feel cold?"

Qin Ku looked disappointed and muttered to himself: "I don't know if he is cold, I only know that my financial route is broken......"

With that, Qin Ku, who had lost his soul, left Ling Xiaoxiao's room and staggered towards the east courtyard like a walking corpse.

"Qin Ku!"

Suddenly, a cold voice sounded from the corridor, which shocked Qin Ku's heart.

At the turn, Murong Bai, who had a solemn face, flashed out and blocked his way.

"Seventh Master?"

"Qin Ku, what did you just do in Madame's room?"

Hearing this, Qin Ku's face changed suddenly, and he hurriedly explained: "Don't get me wrong, I just ...... just now"

"Don't talk nonsense, follow me to see the mansion master!"

......
