Chapter Twenty-Four: Discussion at First Sight

"Uncle Han. Zhao Qingyan saw a middle-aged man walking towards the Qilin Pavilion with a stack of papers, and said hello with a smile.

When Han Zeran saw that it was him, he just showed a smile, and then he retracted it again, and said lightly: "Oh, it's the little prince, why did you think about coming over so late?"

Zhao Qingyan said with a smile: "I just came back, come and check something, and by the way, I will talk to Uncle Thirteen about something." ”

Han Zeran said: "Then the little prince, please take a please, I still have something to do, go first." Without further ado, he quickened his pace and left.

Zhao Qingyan was stunned, didn't think much about it, turned the wheel and walked towards the Qilin Pavilion.

"The little prince is finally back, how many injustices have he borne in vain?"

"What's wrong with him?"

"He has a good temperament and would not do such a thing. ”

"Good temperament? He usually looks good, but he doesn't see any kindness when he really starts to move, and he is still cold-blooded and ruthless. ”

"Yes, Mu Ning, the facts are here, do you still believe him?"

"Lord Ouyang, tell you the truth, is Lord Bao's death and your departure his reason?"

"Alright, don't talk about it, I just came over to see him. There are some things that you need to understand, don't fall into your mouth, he is the king. This is Han Zeran's voice.

"Old Han, you ...... the same way"

"Old love is old love, facts are facts. ”

"Little, little prince, when did you come?" When Zhao Qingyan stepped back, the wheel pressed against the stone, making a sound, which alarmed everyone in the discussion.

Zhao Qingyan looked at these elders who either grew up or had been officials in the same country for many years, his chest was a little stuffy, and he smiled slightly: "I just arrived." Feeling that his throat was a little hoarse, he coughed lightly twice, and smiled at Ouyang Xiu: "Lord Ouyang is here to get something, right? ”

"Little prince......" Ouyang Xiu wanted to stop him, but he didn't know what to say, so he lost his voice.

"Eh, little prince!" Mu Ning looked at the rest of the people, stomped his feet, and chased after him, "Little prince, little prince, you slow down." ”

Zhao Qingyan walked around to a place where no one was and stopped: "What's the matter?"

Mu Ning hesitated, but still asked, "Little Lord, did you hear what you said just now?"

Zhao Qingyan took a deep breath and turned around: "Uncle Mu, thank you." ”

Mu Ning was stunned for a moment, knowing that he had heard it, so he could only say: "Master Bao was martyred suddenly, everyone was a little excited, and they didn't mean it. ”

Zhao Qingyan smiled hard and said, "It's okay. ”

Mu Ning said in a low voice: "Little Lord Wangye......" couldn't say anything to persuade him.

Zhao Qingyan grabbed his sleeves with his fingers, but his voice was still extremely calm: "Uncle Mu don't say that in the future, he will be laughed at." ”

Mu Ning was stunned and said, "But that wasn't done by the little prince." ”

Zhao Qingyan lowered his head, clutched his sleeves, and said with a reluctant smile: "Thank you, Uncle Mu, it's just that I don't want to be implicated by me just because you believe me, it's not worth it." ”

"Little prince, don't be sad, they just can't think about it for a while, really. Mu Ning explained in a hurry.

Zhao Qingyan said in a low voice: "The three of them become tigers, and people are terrible. He looked up at Mu Ning, his eyes remained calm, and said slowly: "Uncle Mu, I really appreciate you for being willing to believe in me and speak for me." However, it is a great crime to murder an official of the imperial court. Of course, as the prince, I am at most a power cut, and with my father here, I will not be good. But you're different, you're just an ordinary civil official. If I'm implicated, your career may be ruined, you know? So, it's right to keep your distance from me. They did the right thing, I don't blame them, and I don't want you to be bothered by me. ”

Mu Ning hurriedly said: "Little prince, don't say such things, I believe that you have nothing to do with my career." ”

Zhao Qingyan smiled bitterly: "How can it be okay? Why are you so stupid?"

Mu Ning's face flushed slightly: "I'm not stupid, I'm just stupid." Isn't the little prince afraid that he will be told by them because I talk like that? But that's not the little prince's fault, and I didn't say anything wrong, what can't I say? I just believe that the little prince won't kill people, that's all. ”

Zhao Qingyan smiled, his eyes full of smiles: "I won't kill people? I have hundreds of lives in my hands, how can I not kill people? People in their forties, don't be so naΓ―ve, okay?"

Mu Ning said: "I know you are not happy in your heart, but don't pour dirty water on yourself because of this." ”

Zhao Qingyan raised his head, closed his eyes and said, "Uncle Mu, go back, I want to be quiet." ”

Mu Ning knew that he was upset, so he had to nod: "Oh, okay, then I'll go first, don't worry too much about the little prince." Seeing him nod, he relaxed a little and turned away.

Zhao Qingyan grabbed the jade pendant on his waist and gritted his teeth hard. The thin line on the jade pendant couldn't help his strength, and it was disconnected, and Zhao Qingyan's hand slammed on the armrest. Zhao Qingyan gasped and scolded in a low voice: "Damn!" threw the jade pendant hard.

The jade pendant smashed on the bluestone slab, and then bounced away, only releasing two crisp collision sounds, and then it returned to calm.

"Hey, why is the little prince so angry? Looking at this color, I'm afraid that we will be in the middle of thirty or forty years? Fortunately, it is not bad, otherwise it will be a waste?" A man in his twenties, dressed in the uniform of a first-class guard, bent over to pick up the jade pendant, stepped forward and handed it to Zhao Qingyan, and said with a smile.

Zhao Qingyan hesitated for a moment, but still stretched out his hand to take it, and asked, "It's not your turn to be on duty today, right?"

Chen Huayi shrugged: "Thanks to your little prince Qi, I transferred more than a dozen people to Ouyang Xiu's mansion, and recently there have been a lot of manpower in the palace." ”

Zhao Qingyan snorted: "I'm sorry to hurt you." ”

Chen Huayi gave him a strange look: "It seems that you are in a really bad mood, because of what?"

Zhao Qingyan glanced at him and asked rhetorically, "You don't know?"

Chen Huayi thought for a while: "Recently, it has been rumored that you killed Bao Zheng and took away Lord Ouyang, we seem to be better over there, and the people in Qilin Pavilion have quite a big opinion." Hey, the two of them are staying in the Qilin Pavilion, and we can't see each other once a while, no feelings, no feelings. I just saw Mu Ning walking back from here, and as soon as I turned around, I saw you smashing things. So, have you been to the Kirin Pavilion?

Zhao Qingyan asked, "Isn't it okay?"

Chen Huayi smiled: "Okay, okay, I dare to say no, you old words, I just think it's not normal, it's not like you to be depressed like this." ”

Zhao Qingyan asked: "Don't you dare?" You dare to call Bao Zheng by his name, what else don't dare?"

Chen Huayi spread his hands: "We military attachΓ©s who run errands have never looked down on him, we call him that in private, I'm not used to calling him Bao Hei, just call him Daimyo, who cares? It's so remote here, there is no one else but you and me, it's interesting to pretend to be so serious?"

Zhao Qingyan looked at him funny: "You haven't seen him a few times, and you still have such a big opinion?"

Chen Huayi said casually: "It's not big, anyway, the opinions are not small." Are you embarrassed to say that I? You haven't been to Qilin Pavilion a few times, have you? You don't know those people well, so you don't care if they chew their tongues? Han Zeran and Mu Ning are closer to you, I don't think Mu Ning looks like he is alienated from you, why are you angry with yourself?"

Zhao Qingyan threw the jade pendant into his arms: "Don't talk about this, it's uncomfortable to say it." ”

Chen Huayi subconsciously took it and asked, "What do you mean? Did you give me this thing? Or do you want me to fix it for you? Do you dislike the soil, or do you dislike me?"

Zhao Qingyan glanced at him angrily: "For the sake of you making me a lot happy, I will give you a hard fee." ”

Chen Huayi sighed twice: "Domineering, but it's useless for me to ask for this thing, it's better to bring me some pastries that you can't usually eat." ”

Zhao Qingyan said: "No, I have fallen out of favor, and I have no place for you." ”

Chen Huayi threw the jade pendant back to him: "Forget it, you have to say how fake it is." Come on, I know you're not in the mood lately, so you owe it. Wait for the next time you have time, bring more fresh food when you come over, and give one of us a little bit to satisfy our hunger. ”

Zhao Qingyan smiled: "Okay, wait for ten years and eight years, I will definitely give it to you." ”

Chen Huayi snorted: "I don't know if I can live for eight years, you will give me dry grass on the grave to eat?"

Zhao Qingyan glanced at him: "Maybe in seven or eight years, the withered grass on my grave will be as tall as yours." ”

Chen Huayi shrugged his shoulders and said: "Dead person, why be so sad? Even if someone secretly stumbles on you, with your ability to be a little prince, you can really be tripped over? ”

Zhao Qingyan stared at him and asked, "What did you say?"

Chen Huayi touched his nose: ""

Chen Huayi was stunned for a moment, then understood, and said with a smile: "You are a fan of the authorities, and a bystander is clear, and if you dare to think a little bit of brain, you should know that someone must have secretly done something here." Little prince, little prince, you are just dizzy, you can think of it if you think about it carefully, right?"

Zhao Qingyan closed his eyes and sensed the surroundings calmly, and only after making sure that there was no one did he say in a deep voice: "You are really bold enough, you dare to say such things anywhere, you are not afraid that the wall has ears?"

Chen Huayi grinned: "I've said everything, I'll say the last sentence again." Solicit and avoid suspicion, little prince, you should be careful to pay attention to yourself. "It's a minute, not much to say.

Zhao Qingyan nodded silently: "Okay, I'm a little tired, I'm back home, you can continue to be busy." ”

Chen Huayi reminded: "Don't forget my delicious food." ”

Zhao Qingyan smiled: "I know, I'll get it for you when this time is over." ”

Chen Huayi said: "The so-called eating people with soft mouths and soft hands with people." In the future, if the little prince has anything to do with me, even if he commands, I will never refuse. ”

Zhao Qingyan's eyes moved, and he pouted: "I need you? ”

Chen Huayi grimaced: "I'm just polite, is the little prince still serious?" Without waiting for him to speak, he turned around and ran away.

"This guy. Zhao Qingyan shook his head, looking a little helpless.
