However, as time went by, his desire gradually increased, and he felt unbearable when he thought that Xia Shengxun's affection for him had always been like a familiar relationship gradually cultivated among strangers. In his heart, he also reminded himself over and over again that it is one thing to recognize his junior sister, but it is by no means a forcible wife who takes away the original wing, people put righteousness first, love second, and An Neng puts the cart before the horse?

On the other hand, he had another deep confusion: the one he loved was clearly Shen Shiyun, who had been in love for six years and had never wavered. But now that I get along with her, I no longer have the feeling of blushing and heartbeat in the past, and some are just full of restraint, or indignation due to dissatisfaction.

On the contrary, what you can't get is always the best, and she ran into walls everywhere in front of Xia Shengxun, and her interest in her became stronger and stronger. The most joyful thing to look forward to every day has also become a visit to Yuan Yi's home, fighting wits and courage with her, and setting a trap at any word, just waiting for her to step into the trap.

And Xia Sheng is extremely smart, and he has never revealed even the slightest flaw, and has always maintained the tranquility when he first met. This intelligence also made Li Yijie repeatedly recall Nangong Xue. But most of the women he has seen are both talented and beautiful, and it is difficult to deduce from this.

Except for being in the palace, Li Yijie's days in Yinxue Palace were endlessly sad, except for the occasional summons from the emperor, he used wine to drown his sorrows every day. has been messing with Lu Qian for a long time, and has gradually become a very good friend of wine and meat. After drinking, he spit out the truth, and there are a lot of heart-wrenching words that are told to him. Regarding Xia Shengxun's affairs, he has been hiding it for a long time, and he has been hoping to win it with his own strength. When I couldn't bear it anymore, I finally poured it all out.

After hearing this, Lu Qian was silent for a long time, and said with a smile: "Brother Li, what is your tone really tight? No wonder the emperor trusts you so much......" Li Yijie was upset, he didn't have the heart to talk to him, and said categorically: "Don't talk about cool things." Tell me what to do. You say that girl, is it Xue'er?"

Lu Qian pretended to be an old pedant, turned his head a few times, and said, "Lu Mang guessed that she wasn't, maybe she was." Li Yijie said happily: "Really?" However, before the look of joy on his face could be maintained for a moment, Lu Qian said again: "But Lu Mang said that she is, and she may not be." Li Yijie's face sank, and said: "You said this, doesn't it mean that you didn't say it?

Lu Qian smiled and said, "Look, Brother Li, you have shown the side of a villain, right? You see, even if you have seen Xia Shengxun with your own eyes and said so many words to her, you are still not sure." I've never come into contact with this girl, but I've only heard you tell me what I'm saying, and I'm going to deduce it easily by feeling. Tell the truth, I can't tell you, I can't say it. Look, you're not trying to embarrass me?"

Li Yijie listened to his words, and it was clear that he was turning a corner, and wanted to take him to see Xia Shengxun by himself, but he really didn't want to, and privately hoped that Nangong Xue's secret was only known to him.

Seeing that he was silent, Lu Qian knew that he was fighting from the two sides in his heart, so he took the opportunity to follow the temptation and said, "Brother Li, I'm helping you." After I go, I don't need to say anything, if Miss Xia is really Xue'er, you know, although I have always refused to admit it, Xue'er hates me in her heart, and every time she sees me, she is always a little awkward. I'm going to pay a visit to Miss Xia and see how she reacts? I'll keep an eye on her, and I'll be able to notice the slightest abnormality in her demeanor. At least recognize her identity first, she is in the light, let's retreat to the dark, the situation is much more favorable. Brother Li, think about it, isn't that the truth?"

Li Yijie knew that Lu Qian was immortal to the Nangong Snow Thief, and he never agreed with this relationship. I never wanted to take him to see Xia Shengxun, but now I took the initiative to ask him for help, and it was inconvenient to repent, so I had to reluctantly agree. Lu Qian was overjoyed, as if he had picked up a big bargain. I stopped drinking the wine, turned out a bronze mirror next to him, and carefully sorted out my clothes. Li Yijie wants to secretly cry out for suspicion again, I really don't know whether it is right to take him on this trip.

The two of them were well organized, and they went out of the palace together and came to the original wing mansion. Li Yijie introduced the two sides, and said: "I take the liberty to disturb, I really don't want to ......."

Yuan Yi smiled: "Where, every time Brother Li comes, my humble room is like a festival, but I am very happy." It just so happens that I did prepare a few more side dishes today, if you don't dislike it, let's use them together. Haha, Brother Li, are you really good at picking the right time?"

Li Yijie smiled, and before he could explain, Lu Qian had already walked out from behind him, held Yuan Yi's hands very enthusiastically, and said continuously: "Yuan Gongzi, I really haven't seen you for a day, like every three autumns! Do you remember me?" Yuan Yi smiled: "The former big boss of Qingtianzhai is so famous that people can't forget it." Compared to you, I'm a nobody. ”

Lu Qian said repeatedly: "Where is it." Since the farewell of Hetuala, I have been thinking about the original son all the time. When I saw you, I realized that the depth of martial arts is endless, and what I thought was a refinement was just a little bit of skin on the periphery, and I really didn't dare to talk about the avenue. I also want to discuss more with Yuan Gongzi and answer the doubts in my heart......" Yuan Yi smiled: "You're welcome. Lord Lu Zhai has something to ask me, although it doesn't hurt to be blunt!"

Lu Qian smiled awkwardly. Although this is not a naked debunking, the spicy meaning of it still makes him extremely uncomfortable. But his mentality has been frustrated several times, and he has already been "tempered into steel", and he no longer pays attention to these sneering and sarcastic words, and says: "I can't hide anything from the original son, and it is better to be respectful than to obey my fate." It's just that as soon as the two of us met, we didn't talk about friendship, but first talked about business in a fake way, which was too hurtful. Then let's wait for the dinner table. Yuan Yi said: "That's also good." ”

When Lu Qian spoke, although his eyes were staring straight at Yuan Yi, the afterglow never left Xia Shengxun on the side for even a moment. Judging from her appearance, she and Nangong Xue really couldn't find any difference, and after a few words, there was nothing to say except for the indifference and alienation from strangers on her face.

At this time, I couldn't help but secretly admire: the little girl's Taoism is really high. stepped forward and greeted: "This Xia girl, oh, no, look at my memory, I should be called Young Lady Yuan." Brother Li often mentioned you to me, saying what a beautiful and intelligent girl you are, I have heard about it for a long time, and I have long wanted to see the true face of Lushan. When I saw you today, you were even more beautiful than I imagined, and I will be fortunate to meet you. These are just ordinary polite words between men and women, not Lu Qian's originality.

Xia Shengxun only smiled indifferently and said, "Master Lu is too polite. It's just that the little woman really doesn't know why this politeness is necessary. The person who really has a responsibility is an extremely close friend, who is not forced to do so, and will not trouble him easily. And you and my brother Yi are only a few faces, and as soon as you open your mouth, you will ask for something, which is making the little woman greatly increase her knowledge. As long as the word 'ask' is spoken, why waste time to set up some meaningless almost? This feeling will be hurt sooner or later. In that case, what's the difference between early and late injuries?"

Li Yijie looked at Lu Qian with some sympathy, and said in his heart: "I also gave her such a merciless accusation." But he kept his lips closed, neither opening nor persuading. Perhaps it was Lu Qian who suffered, and in addition to sympathy, he also aroused a little schadenfreude. In the past, I heard him blow the sky, and what did he say that it didn't matter if she Nangong Xue or Xia Shengxun, as long as she went out by herself, she would easily win it. This time it's up to him to round the field.

Lu Qian didn't show any surprise, and said, "When Brother Li mentioned it, he also said that Miss Xia's eloquence was first-class. Fortunately, I was prepared in advance, otherwise I would have been beaten and defeated before I understood it. I said that if I ask Yuan Gongzi for something, how do you know that it must be a disadvantage? This matter is closely related to the virtuous couple, and I dare to guarantee that if Gongzi is willing to agree, the blessings will be endless, and when the time comes, I will have to thank me as a promoter. ”

Xia Shengxun sneered: "Oh, asking for help, is begging him to treat herself better? This is the first time the little woman has heard of this kind of strange thing." It's up to you to see what tricks you can play. Lu Qian smiled slightly and said, "I won't let you down." The two looked at each other, and the atmosphere seemed peaceful to outsiders, but there was a strong smell of gunpowder, which always seemed to hide some imminent crisis.

After that, the four of them sat down as guests, and the table full of delicacies was indeed very rich, but Li Yijie didn't know the taste. He was worrying about his mind today, this moment he stole a glance at Xia Shengxun, and at that moment he gestured to Lu Qian with his eyes, and he didn't know how many kicks he secretly kicked under the table.

Lu Qian is worthy of being a big man who once stood at the head of the underworld, and he has always kept his face unchanged and talked and laughed freely. But he only cared about toasting politely to Yuan Yi, and occasionally praised Xia Sheng for two sentences, all of which passed by, without traces, and all of them were full of sweet words in his past. Li Yijie's eyes and ears alternated, anxious in his heart.

At this moment, Lu Qian and Yuan Yi touched the full cup again, drank it all, then pushed the cup to change the lamp, and said with a smile: "Yuan Gongzi, when we meet for the first time, I will pay tribute to your civil and military skills." After that day, I thought about it privately, and I still had a hard time paying respect, so I specially recommended you to Concubine Yun. You know, she has always treated her subordinates rather than indiscriminately, but after hearing what you did, she was 'a little bit like what I see as a hero', and I also have a thirst for talent. If the original son is willing to join, he has been a high-ranking official since then, and he has lived a happy life wallowing in the pile of gold and silver all his life. What does Yuan Gongzi think? Why don't we strike while the iron is hot, you can give me a reply on the spot, and the clapper will be finalized, so that I can go back to the concubine. She will rejoice, and she should reward me well. You are the great benefactor of my promotion and fortune, you are doing well, giving my little brother a convenience?"

As soon as Yuan Yi heard his words, he already knew his intentions, and said lightly: "Concubine Yun's kindness will be understood in the future." I would like to ask Lord Lu to tell me that it is not enough to be elegant in the next introduction of people in the rivers and lakes. To serve in front of the Holy Driver, she knew that she did not have this blessing, so she asked her to ask for another master. As for any glory and wealth, although I dare not call it 'money like dung', after all, I didn't sell it to her at a cheap price, and I don't have to use money to buy me. ”

Lu Qian said: "How can this be said to be a bribe? Yuan Gongzi is doing everything smoothly, but only in this way of cognition, there is a difference. The people of the world are struggling in every way to be appreciated by the Lord and make achievements. Whether it is for the country and the people, for one's own selfish interests, or for the benefit of the people, it is not a nice thing to say in words. If you can't hold real power in your hands, you don't need to talk about anything. When someone else snorts, you have to saddle up for him. We can't even talk about the most basic freedom and dignity, let alone do anything?"

Yuan Yi said: "All kinds of things in the world are mundane. If the environment is really not suitable for me to live, this world is vast, and it is a big deal to live in seclusion in the countryside and countryside, and still seek a place where there is no dispute with the world and is at ease. ”
