Chapter 80 Refreshing Tea

Recalling what Cheng Qian said to himself before, it seems to have deep meaning now.

She felt her little heart beating wildly. How could she be taken in by a brat at such an age?Zhao Shuang felt uncomfortable all over.

"This Cheng Qian, I heard that since the age of 17, the Cheng family has been planning marriages for him, but they are always delayed due to various reasons," Yang Xuan turned around while stroking her long hair hanging in front of her. With an idea in his eyes, he said, "Since his marriage is not going well, it's better for me to help him and let the queen mother give him the marriage."

Zhao Shuang looked at him strangely, when did the prince like to be a matchmaker?

"What? Are you reluctant?" Seeing her frowning, Yang Xuan turned her small face and looked into her eyes.

"What can I be reluctant to do? Don't talk nonsense, I just think that messing up the couples makes it easy to do bad things with good intentions." Zhao Shuang opened his hand and asked again, "Which girl do you want to point out?"

"What's so difficult about it? Just the lady he met today." The man curled his lips proudly, "I'll ask Pingfeng to find out who the lady is from later on, and then let the Queen Mother make the decision. "

"My lord, I'm a concubine... I just want to discuss something with you." Zhao Shuang said, digging and searching for a piece of red paper from the drawer under the table.

"Say, what happened again? What is this?" The man held the piece of paper with one hand and pressed it on the table, his eyes vigilant.

As long as she calls herself a "concubine", nothing good will happen.

"My lord...why are you so nervous?" The woman in pink accompanied her carefully, swallowing nervously, "When you were not around, I let Xu Meiren and Bingji go, thinking...how can I compensate you? Yes...it's a good thing!"

"What the hell are you planning?" Yang Xuan still pressed the piece of paper and glared at her, "You want to plot against me again?"

"Really!" Zhao Shuang pointed to the red paper sprinkled with gold on the table, and said aggrievedly, "Look for yourself, these are some girls from innocent families recommended by my mother. It will be too high, and someone has already calculated the date of birth on it, my lord, which one is suitable for you?"

The man turned over the red paper tremblingly and looked at it. Sure enough, several people's birthdays and horoscopes were written on it, and small portraits were also drawn.

"Zhao Shuang! You..." He just said something, and felt a mouthful of blood clogging his heart. He touched her forehead and said, "I don't think you have made any progress in the past few months! You even conspired with my mother to plot against me. !"

"My lord, how can you blame me for this? You obviously couldn't keep people on your own. In less than a year, four people were missing from the house!" What did Mao Hu and Ming Jing say about me? You heard it all, saying that I was jealous, and that I murdered my concubine's room!"

"Don't listen to their nonsense!" Seeing her like this, Yang Xuan felt that it was his fault again, and quickly rubbed her hair and persuaded softly, "If you are worried about their nonsense, just find two women to put them in the back seat." It's not impossible to stay in the house, but don't let me see them."

He also did the same for more than ten years before, suppressing the gossip in the upper capital, blocking the mouths of his father and mother, and the back house was still relatively calm.

"How can it be done?" Zhao Shuang shook his head straight, took his hand and said, "If you don't go to the back house, won't you harm the good girl? Originally, mother wanted to be the master, and she brought someone into the palace while you were away. Concubine I just said that I want you to pick some pleasing ones, and you even asked someone to draw a small portrait..."

If Yang Xuan didn't go to the back house after bringing her back, wouldn't she be a widow again like Bing Ji and Xu Lianyu?Zhao Shuang practiced the law of cause and effect, and knew that reckless retribution would result in retribution.

"You still want me to pamper them?" The man in the light green brocade robe lifted her ears and squinted at her.

"My lord, let go! Mother said that your two concubines should not be vacant all the time. I think it's time to find a few candidates, lead them into the mansion first, and then slowly adjust and teach them," Zhao Shuang said in his heart, it's unlucky. Let Mrs. Li tell her son, "Let go! Ears...ears!"

"I think you should drink this refreshing tea!"

Hearing her speak so lightly, Yang Xuan's eyebrows twitched, and just about to scold her, he heard Pingfeng's voice from the door, "My lord, Mingjing is here."

The man in the green robe let her go.

Zhao Shuang quickly crawled off him touching his ears, but was held down by him just as he was about to escape.

"Sit down!" He winked at the empty seat next to him, and Zhao Shuang sat down beside him awkwardly.

"Let Ming Jing come in!" Yang Xuan straightened the front of his clothes and called to the door.

Not long after, a young man dressed as a bodyguard walked into the bedroom, and saluted Yang Xuan, "I have seen the prince and concubine."

Last night, the regent asked Ming Jing to deal with Cao Huang and Hong Qiu, and there must have been a result.

"What's the matter?" Yang Xuan took a sip of the refreshing tea on the table as if nothing had happened.

"Return to the lord, Cao Huang, the criminal who framed the concubine and Aunt Xiangxia, was sentenced to hang and will be executed tomorrow. Hongqiu..." Mingjing raised his eyes and glanced at the green robed man, "I think she is a woman, so I gave her poisoned wine .”

Yang Xuan paused, then looked out the window, "Did she drink?"

"Back to the lord, Hong Qiu has been clamoring to see you since last night. She bit the rope in her hand and made a fuss all night, and she bit her teeth off..." Ming Jing saw the regent's expression slightly displeased, and said quickly, "Hong Qiu Qiu... just drank poisonous wine."

He waited until Hongqiu's body had cooled completely before he dared to report back.

"Understood," Yang Xuan said lightly, seeing that Ming Jing was still in a daze, "what else?"

Ming Jing glanced timidly at the woman in pink beside the prince, and asked cautiously, "Hong Qiu's funeral... I don't know if it should be done according to the rules of the guards, or... according to the rules of concubines in the mansion?"

If it is done according to the rules of concubines in the mansion, the princess should be responsible for this matter.

Before Zhao Shuang opened his mouth, he heard Yang Xuan say, "Follow the rules of the Habayashi Guard traitors."

"Yes, this subordinate understands." Ming Jing took a breath and retreated.

The house was silent for a moment.

Zhao Shuang got up and changed him a cup of tea, "My lord, Hong Qiu's matter is settled, why are you not happy?"

"Shuang'er," it was already evening, the man raised his head, the setting sun reflected his clear silhouette, "am I being too cruel and heartless?"

He was wearing a pale green brocade robe today, reflecting the sunset in a handsome and gentle manner, without showing any hostility at all.Zhao Shuang looked at him, wondering for a moment, is he a cruel person?

Hong Qiu's betrayal of his order must have touched his bottom line, right?

"No, the prince is the most heart-warming," Zhao Shuang sat beside him, took his hand and rubbed it, "but..."

"But what?"

"However, the lord doesn't understand women enough, let alone women's feelings, so he is a little sloppy in dealing with things." The woman in pink handed the tea to his lips and watched him take a sip. , maybe...she wouldn't have any unreasonable thoughts, and the concubine wouldn't have to go through this unreasonable disaster."
