Chapter 16
Qi Shao didn't have to be on duty tonight, but he still went to the palace. The place where he usually rested was in the most remote side hall in the northwest corner of the palace. When he was not on duty, he would sit in casual clothes and drink on the roof.

Tonight the moon is bright and the stars are sparse, and the night is still a bit chilly.

Fortunately, he had wine in his hand, and he took a few sips from the jug, and soon he felt a little drunk, and he didn't feel cold.

Wei Xuan came as promised, smiled and said to Qi Shao on the roof: "Brother Shao didn't wait for me, why did you drink it alone?"

Qi Shao smiled embarrassedly, and patted the vermilion glazed tiles under his body. Seeing Wei Xuan's white clothes were spotless, he took out the handkerchief from his arms and spread it on the glazed tiles, "Brother Wei loves Jie, this white clothes It’s so elegant and beautiful, it would be a pity to get dirty.”

Wei Xuan jumped up lightly with his strength, and landed firmly beside Qi Shao, lightly lifted his robe, and sat on the glazed tile.

He pursed his lips and smiled, "It's okay."

He also lifted the jug, drank a few swigs, looked at Qi Shao and said, "Brother Qi seems to be thinking? I wonder if I can help Brother Qi solve his problems?"

Qi Shao was drunk, with a drunken blush on his face, he patted Wei Xuan on the shoulder, "Brother Wei is not an outsider, so it's okay to tell Brother Wei."

He then told Wei Xuan that Lu Mingtan was raised in a concubine, and that his sister had been divorced by the Zhen Guo General's Mansion.

The divorce was originally brought about by Wei Xuan. He naturally knew the cause and effect of it, so he said a few words to comfort Qi Shao, took a big sip of wine, looked at Qi Shao jokingly and said: "Since that Lu Shizi is not a good man, Qi Shao The lady is also glad that she didn't marry into the General Zhen Guo's residence, so after retiring from the Lu family, how can your father find another marriage for the lady?"

"Of course not." Qi Shao lowered his eyes, his expression was a little sad, his sister was right in saying that his father was the most ruthless, he only cared about himself, and after retiring from the Lu family, he would not care about his sister's marriage.

But Wei Xuan's words reminded him that his father doesn't care, but he will take care of it. My younger sister is smart, capable, and beautiful, so naturally there will be many gentlemen who want to marry her.

"Brother Wei woke me up with a few words, so it doesn't matter if Lu Shizi doesn't want it, at worst, I will find another marriage for my younger sister."

Wei Xuan nodded with a smile, quickly adjusted his robes, with a smile on his face, hinting in his smile, that smile seemed to say: "Look at me, am I not better than that Lu Mingtan?"
Qi Shao looked at him blankly, "Brother Wei didn't sleep well last night? Suffered from eye problems?"

Wei Xuan pursed his lips and smiled, Qi Shao was straightforward, how could he understand the deep meaning in his eyes, so he said with a smile: "Brother Qi, what do you think of me? Can I match Lingmei?"

Qi Shao laughed loudly when he heard it, and his face became redder, "Brother Wei, stop joking." He shook his head again and again, waved his hands and said, "Brother Wei can't do it!"

Wei Xuan's face darkened slightly, and his smile froze at the corner of his mouth, but Qi Shao didn't notice the change in his face at all, and continued: "Jiuzhu was born as beautiful as a flower, and he is proficient in everything from piano, chess, calligraphy and painting to the housekeeper. It's just a bodyguard, it's really not suitable for my sister!"

Wei Xuan tried his best not to kick him off the roof.

Xie An, who was hiding in the dark and eavesdropping on the corner of the wall, covered his mouth and suppressed a smile, his face flushed red from laughing, but he didn't dare to laugh out loud, it was really hard to hold back.

The dignified Prince Xiguo was disgusted by a guard, but that guard was still his best friend, the elder brother of his sweetheart, and he couldn't get angry when he was disgusted.

Really aggrieved.

Wei Xuan pursed his thin lips, feeling rather speechless. His various hints today were actually taken astray by Qi Shao, or it could be said that Qi Shang and his wife were really biased, and their IQ was passed on to their younger sister, not to their elder brother at all.

"Since brother Qi wants to choose a son-in-law for your sister, where does brother plan to start?"

This question stumped Qi Shao, all the people he knew were servants in the palace, except for the guards and eunuchs, looking around, he couldn't find anyone who was worthy of his sister.

He scratched his head, really couldn't think of where to find a good husband to match his sister.

"I have a way to help Brother Qi." Wei Xuan took out the invitation card that he had prepared earlier, handed it to Qi Shao, and said with a smile: "In two days, Shen Shangshu's family will hold a banquet of flowers, and the famous family in Chang'an City Girls and young talents will go to the banquet, and your younger sister can also go, maybe you can take this opportunity to find a good husband."

"Brother Wei's plan is brilliant!"

Qi Shao almost clapped his hands and cheered, and quickly vowed: "When my sister finds a good son-in-law, I will invite Brother Wei to come to have a wedding wine!"

A calculating smile appeared on Wei Xuan's face, and he said in a low voice: "A good son-in-law is easy to get, far away in the sky, close in front of you."

Qi Shao looked around, only to see a bright moon hanging above his head, thought about Wei Xuan's words, then lowered his head and thought for a moment, "Brother Wei is right, far away in the sky, close in front of us, my brother-in-law must be in Shenyang Home."

Wei Xuan pursed his lips and smiled, "Brother Qi is right to understand that."

He will also go to the Hundred Flowers Banquet at Shen's house, and will marry Qi Jiuzhu soon, isn't his good son-in-law at Shen's house?

Qi Shao kept the invitation close to him, obviously feeling much better. He lifted the jug and said in a loud voice, "Brother Wei has a cup!"

After he took a sip of wine, he fell straight down and slept on the roof, snoring suddenly.

Wei Xuan put the white porcelain bottle prepared in advance beside him, squinted his eyes and looked at the dark night sky, wondering what happened to Jiuzhu's injury?

In just two more days, he will be able to see her.

Thinking of Jiuzhu's cute and innocent appearance, the smile in his eyes deepened.

He jumped down from the roof, and said to Cui Jiu and Xie An: "But I found out clearly, why did the empress have another headache in just half a month?"

Xie An kept giving Cui Jiu winks, he had suffered [-] strokes before, and his back injury was still not healed, he didn't want to say something wrong and add another injury to his back.

Cui Jiubai glanced at Xie An, and had no choice but to report truthfully: "This subordinate heard that the lady of the Shen family entered the palace tonight."

Sure enough, he guessed right, Shen Sanniang missed both times, and the empress sent him to the palace to serve the sick at this time, in fact, to match him and Shen Sanniang.

It's a pity that he has one person in his heart, and he can no longer accommodate others.

Shen Sanniang's thoughts were doomed to fail.

In Fengyi Palace, Shen Sanniang was guarding in front of Empress Shen's bed. Empress Shen was wearing a bright yellow headband and her forehead was slanted on the bed, and the female official Weiyang was gently rubbing her temples.

Shen Sanniang is serving Queen Shen with sweet soup.

Empress Shen smiled and said, "Su'e, put it down. Come and sit down, Auntie has something to say to you."

"Su'e will follow my aunt's orders."

Empress Shen looked at Shen Su'e, who was somewhat similar to her own, and felt a little sad. The daughters of the Shen family were too disciplined, and they were bound by the Shen family's ethics all their lives. Such a person is destined to be rarely favored by men.

She was imprisoned in this palace all her life, but she didn't get the favor of her husband, and she didn't have any heirs, only this cold Queen's Phoenix Crown on her head.

But Concubine Liu Shu was spoiled by the emperor all her life, and the house was full of children and grandchildren.

Although she doesn't like Concubine Liu Shu's charming demeanor, she still envies Concubine Liu Shu.

She took Shen Su'e's hand, and a smile appeared on her wrinkled face.Empress Shen is depressed all the year round, but she is only in her 40s, and there are several wrinkles around her eyes and mouth. When she is not smiling, she is a little bit mean in her seriousness.

 Wei Xuan: Brother, what do you think of me?
  Qi Shao: No, no, no one is worthy of my sister.
