Chapter 468 Lead the snake out of the hole
Xu Yin led Miss Qi to see Du Ming first.

"How? Are you all right?" she asked.

Du Ming saluted, and replied: "Miss Liu is in a state of mind, she seems to have been quite frightened. I saw that her steps were slow when she descended the steps, and she might have hurt her knee."

Xu Yin smiled and nodded: "When Liu Shi was a concubine, she was famous for her good temper. She is such a vicious person, she pretends to be virtuous on the surface, how can she have no place to vent her anger behind her back? Today is different from the past, her current Besides Liu Xier, who else is more suitable for the situation?"

Du Ming couldn't respond well to these words, so he smiled.

"Okay, the drama that needs you is over. Today's Dragon Boat Festival will delay your play, go."

Du Ming and Miss Qi both saluted, and then walked away side by side.

Watching them walk away, Xiaoman sighed: "General Du and Ms. Qi are so well matched, this is a perfect couple! Concubine Liu still doesn't like it, and she doesn't care whether she is worthy or not."

Xu Yin laughed: "It doesn't matter whether you are a status or a position, they are all foreign things, and there is nothing unworthy of them. The most important thing is that the two have similar temperaments. Although General Du is a general, he is a gentle and good person. He and Miss Qi After getting along with each other for a long time, only then will we have a bond of affection, which has nothing to do with others."

"Yes." Xiaoman was taught.

Xu Yin looked at her again: "Speaking of which, you are not too young, what do you think?"

"What? Miss, which one did you say?"

"Marriage! Have you taken a fancy to any one?"

Xiao Man hurriedly said: "No, Miss, please don't marry me off casually." Then she complained, "Miss only asks me what to do? Xiao Sang is not sure yet!"

Xu Yin sighed: "Silly girl, even though you two are by my side, they are different. Xiao Sang has her elder brother, and because of Chai Qi's various achievements, she will definitely be rewarded in the future, so she is also an official lady." Yes, there are a lot of people asking for marriage."

Xiaoman froze for a moment, his face showing confusion.

Xu Yin smiled again: "Don't worry, you have made a lot of contributions, and I won't let you suffer. I have already asked someone to handle your release documents. When the time comes, you will also recognize a relative, and the scenery will be beautiful." get married."

Xiaoman laughed foolishly: "I know Miss treats me well."

On the other side, the atmosphere in the car where Concubine Liu was returning was dull, Liu Xi'er lowered her head and dared not say a word.

After returning to Taiyuan Palace and entering the inner hall, Concubine Liu finally had a seizure.She swept across the dressing table with one sleeve, and the powder fell all over the floor.

Without hesitation, Liu Xi'er knelt down again with a "plop", and said in a mournful voice, "Auntie, I didn't think too much, really! No matter how good General Du is, he can't compare to cousin!"

These words made Concubine Liu feel a little relieved, she let out a breath and sat down.

"Get up! The injury hasn't healed yet, are you going to kneel down and make something wrong?"

"Yes." Liu Xi'er stood up hesitantly.

Concubine Liu said with a cold face: "I originally thought that this person is not from a high family background, and he is a martial artist, so he probably has some shortcomings, so it's just a matter of inferring that he doesn't agree with him. I didn't expect..."

Regardless of appearance or conversation, Du Ming couldn't fault it.Concubine Zhao was right, such a character, with both real power and title, must be very sought-after. If Xu Yin hadn't stepped forward, Liu Xi'er would not have been able to get it.

In addition, Princess Zhao has repeatedly said yes, if she still refuses, it will really arouse suspicion.

"No, the marriage cannot be settled!" Concubine Liu suddenly stood up.

If this marriage is settled, there will be no hope for Yan Cheng.

"But Auntie, how can we refuse?" Liu Xi'er asked timidly, "I definitely can't say that General Du is bad, then...how about I pretend to be sick?"

"How can you pretend to be sick?" Concubine Liu was annoyed, "If you were sick, would you still want to enter Yan's house?"

Liu Xi'er was so scolded that she dared not speak.

Concubine Liu thought about it, and said bitterly: "I didn't want to be in such a hurry. Ah Cheng is now fully focused on government affairs, so it's not good to disturb him. However, Mrs. Dong forced him to come, no matter what, I can only take a risk once. .”

Liu Xi'er's heart skipped a beat: "Auntie?"

……

In the evening, Yan came out of the Bowen Museum after finishing handling the government affairs.

When he reached the gate of the palace, he happened to be passing by with the chariot carried by Concubine Liu, so she stopped to say hello.

"Aunt Liu, I haven't seen you for a long time, but are you okay?"

Concubine Liu looked at Yan Cheng with a smile, and said, "Okay. I'm here to pay my respects to Concubine Fan and Your Majesty. Are you just finishing your business?"

"Yes, I'm going back home."

"Don't work too hard, look at you, you've lost a lot of weight."

Yan Cheng replied with a smile: "Father entrusted me with government affairs, such a heavy burden, how can I not care about it?"

"Then you have to take care of yourself, you were in poor health when you were young, what should you do if you are tired and sick?"

The elders are so caring, Yan Cheng gratefully replied: "Yes."

After exchanging pleasantries, Grand Concubine Liu thought of something: "By the way, the tomb of the Liu family has been repaired. I want to ask Xi'er to pay homage in two days. Can you do me a favor and find someone to escort her there?"

Yan Cheng's thoughts moved slightly, he met Concubine Liu's eyes, understood her meaning, and replied with a smile: "It's just a small matter, don't worry, auntie."

So the two said good time and said goodbye to each other.

This conversation did not avoid others, and at night, it naturally reached Xu Yin's ears.

She said to Ms. Qi: "It's still General Du who is the best. As soon as he goes out, he will be hooked."

Miss Qi followed with a laugh, and felt puzzled again: "Your Majesty is not a lustful person, isn't Mrs. Liu afraid of capsizing in the gutter? After all, if a man doesn't cooperate, this matter can't be done."

Xu Yin frowned slightly, and said: "You are right, how can she be sure that the son will follow her wishes? Isn't she too confident?"

Ms. Qi couldn't figure it out, she could only guess: "Maybe there is no way out, so I can only take a gamble."

Xu Yin shook his head and sighed: "This makes people feel unsatisfactory. The princess is so merciful. I feel sorry for her loneliness in the rest of her life. As long as she tells her, she will find a good family for her to remarry. She just refuses, and she wants to go that There is no way out, and I have to pay for my niece's life."

"It's just a vicious nature." Miss Qi said bluntly, "I have held the Phoenix Seal, and I won't let it go down again. The princess obviously has kindness to her, but she is full of jealousy. How can she care about a niece. , people's hearts are unpredictable, and desires are hard to fill."

Xu Yin nodded, feeling that Yan Ling's words were quite right.Where is the good character of a villain who is rampant when he is successful?
"The snake has already led out of the hole, so it's up to you to do the rest." She said, "You and General Du should take care of it, and we'll solve it once and for all."

Miss Qi bowed and responded, "Yes."

Two days later, Liu Xi'er left the palace to pay homage to his ancestor's tomb. Yan Cheng hurried away after finishing his government affairs.

He understood what Concubine Liu meant that day.The Liu family is his maternal ancestor's family, he has no way to worship openly, so let's take this opportunity to meet his grandfather's relatives!

At the same time, Du Ming also led people out of the city.
