There is a kind of scholar

Chapter 386
But then she thought that Su Xian had been kicked into eunuch by her, and she felt relieved.

However, another question popped up in her mind——

Since Su Xian is already a "eunuch", why is he still worried about whether his name is on the "precise face-to-face roster"?It makes no sense.

But she didn't think about it deeply and just regarded it as Su Xian's obsession.

Finally, Li Youqing opened her red lips and said apologetically:

"Su Wenxu, in fact... your name has been removed from the 'Qualified Face-to-face List' as early as a month ago. Your name is no longer in the list!"

"Just cross it out...haha..."

"..."

Su Xian breathed a sigh of relief, the stones that had accumulated in his heart for more than half a month were finally removed, and he felt relaxed now, as if he was about to become an immortal.

However, immediately after, the smile on Su Xian's lips suddenly stiffened, and his whole body was shocked.

He just stared at Li Youqing blankly, his whole body fixed there.

What did he hear just now?
His name was crossed out by Li Youqing a month ago?
A month ago... And he took over the case more than half a month ago, so that means...

He was deceived!

He was cheated!

Su Xian was stunned and stunned, unable to accept this cruel fact.

Do you know how he came here for more than half a month?

Running around, working tirelessly, investigating cases everywhere, exposed to wind and sun, and even encountered crises several times.

These are nothing more than physical exercise.

But the most important thing is the mental torture.

First of all, this case is really difficult. Ten thousand troops disappeared at the same time under the eyes of tens of thousands of people, just like a fairy tale.

Under normal circumstances, such a weird thing would never happen.

Tang Shujing is still staying at the scene of the crime, which is Hongcunbao in Fanyang County. She even bought a temporary boudoir there and plans to stay there permanently, vowing not to leave until something is dug out...

The first doubt in this case is so difficult.

Although Su Xian escaped from this strange circle and unexpectedly found some clues, these clues were all broken one after another...

Su Xian was once very desperate and secretly launched an escape plan.

His biggest goal at this stage is to hug Li Youqing's thigh, to settle down completely, without having to worry and be afraid all day long, and to improve his sense of security.

When the investigation encounters obstacles, Su Xian has no choice but to launch an escape plan, which is not what Su Xian wants.

Even though he could keep his reputation by escaping into Shiwan Shu Mountain, he really didn't want to waste time in the mountains...

Fortunately, with the arrival of Yan Dashan, the case finally turned around.

Based on some clues and combined with the arithmetic knowledge of later generations, he finally found out where the [-] Liao troops were hiding.

In order to cross off his name from the "accurate roster" as early as possible, Su Xian immediately set off from Youzhou and worked hard all the way. He did not hesitate to make him suffer from motion sickness, vomiting and torture.

However, after meeting Li Youqing, she actually said that Su Xian's name had been removed from the "accurate face-to-face roster" a month ago? !

It was in vain that he had been worried for more than half a month.

After working on it for a long time, he was actually deceived by Li Youqing!

Su Xian shook his head slowly, backed away slowly, and gradually moved away from Li Youqing who looked like a fairy in the dust but with a "weird" smile on his face. He couldn't accept this result.

If you want him to take over the case, just say it clearly, why do you want to deceive his feelings?

At this moment, Su Xian felt the whole world's malice towards him, he was so lonely, he was so helpless, he really wanted to cry, these aborigines knew how to bully him as a traveler...

At some point, Li Youqing dismissed the two officers, and when she and Su Xian were the only ones left in the study, he moved lightly, held the pot in his hand, and poured a glass of tea.

Then he held the glass cup in both hands and walked slowly towards Su Xian.

With a "weird" smile on his face.

Of course, "weird" is just Su Xian's opinion.

His current mentality is unbalanced and he is prejudiced against Li Youqing.

In fact, Li Youqing had a slightly apologetic smile on his face, which can also be said to be "to accompany the smile".

Su Xian watched her slowly approaching, holding the glass lamp in both hands. The long sleeves of the purple palace skirt slipped down, revealing two bright wrists like gelatin.

What is she going to do?
Su Xian was slightly startled, feeling strange about her behavior.

Even the feeling of being deceived in her heart dissipated a little, she raised her eyes, glanced at her beautiful phoenix eyes, and then lowered her eyes to glance at the glazed cup in her hand.

There is more than half a cup of green tea water inside, which is rippling.

"Su Wenxue rushed all the way back to Yingzhou and just explained the case again. He must be thirsty. Let's drink some tea to moisten his throat."

Li Youqing held the glass cup in both hands and gently moved closer to Su Xian.

She had a smile on her face, her voice was soft, and her previous majesty had disappeared without a trace.

Su Xian raised his eyebrows and his heart trembled.

In an instant, he understood that this was a cup of "apology tea" from Li Youqing. Although she didn't say it explicitly, that was what she meant.

After a slight hesitation, Su Xian took the glass cup, thanked him first, and then drank it all in one gulp.

He didn't make excuses to accept the cup of tea, nor did he reprimand the princess holding the glass cup in her hands, or get angry and throw away her hands.

Because it is not necessary.

During the investigation, he was indeed deceived by Li Youqing, but her identity was there. She was the most favored and powerful princess of the Liang Dynasty!

As for him, now he is just an official in someone else's mansion, a subordinate of someone else.

In a place with strict hierarchy in ancient times, she certainly deceived Su Xian, but she poured a cup of "repentance tea" with her own hands, which Su Xian never expected.

Li Youqing's move is equivalent to giving both parties a step up.

Although Su Xian didn't agree with this level from his own heart, but in the current environment, he had to agree.

So he took the glass cup and drank all the tea in it.

"Su Wenxu, please sit down first and wait until I tell you everything that happened that day." Li Youqing returned to the vermilion case and sat down.

Su Xian also sat down as instructed.

He was a little embarrassed.

Thinking of my half a month of running around, in exchange for a cup of tea personally poured by Li Youqing...

He always felt that it was not worth it, and he couldn't calm down.

If other subordinate officials, such as Zhou Jishi or Liu Sima, were in his position and received a cup of tea poured by the princess herself, I am afraid they would have shed tears of gratitude.

But he is not a pure ancient...

At this time, Li Youqing began to tell what happened that day, including that Su Xian's name had been crossed out by her, and that Su Xian took the initiative to add it up, etc.

After Su Xian heard this, he was stunned for a moment.

He was deceived emotionally, and what was the reason why he took the initiative to get involved?
This Nima...

Su Xian was speechless.

Then, Li Youqing complained there again, facing the sudden case, what a headache she was, and what would happen if she couldn't solve the case.

At the same time, she also vaguely pointed to Su Xian's reluctance to take over the case.

After listening to this paragraph, Su Xian couldn't help but rub his face.

He began to reflect.

At the beginning, the reason why he didn't take over the case was because he didn't know how to investigate the case at all. At the same time, he also had the idea that "he had established a foothold in the princess's mansion and didn't want to bother anymore."

It can be said that in that incident, Su Xian was willful and did as he pleased.

If he doesn't take the case, he just doesn't take it. No matter what Princess Lanling says or hints, he will ignore it.

That kind of willfulness, that kind of freedom, that kind of doing whatever you want is indeed an ideal state he pursues.

However, he now reflects on it, is that kind of freedom really appropriate at this stage?

The answer is inappropriate!
Even Li Youqing, who is a princess, cannot do as he pleases and cannot enjoy the kind of freedom Su Xian pursues. Why should he now?

Ok.

Su Xian rubbed his face again.

The reason why he was deceived was at least half of his own problems.

After thinking about this clearly, Su Xian decisively admitted it, and then went against his conscience and said that he was not blaming the princess just now, but... the news came too suddenly, and he couldn't accept it for a while.

The smile at the corner of Li Youqing's mouth became stronger, and he did not expose Su Xian. The two of them understood each other tacitly.

That's probably how it went.

However, Su Xian was still a little depressed. What was depressed was that he hadn't seen the situation clearly before, thinking that he could do whatever he wanted if he had a firm foothold in the Princess Mansion.

Now it seems that in this evil ancient times, if he wants to do whatever he wants, if he wants to have a sufficient sense of security, if he wants to be free... he still needs to work harder.

"Having said that, I once said that I would give you some compensation." Li Youqing suddenly said again.

"Princess... there's no need for that!" Su Xian was startled and thought to himself, "You have compensation and you didn't come up with it earlier. You had to wait until he stopped pursuing it before you said it... This princess seems to be quite scheming."

"I have a golden tongue, and I will never take back what I have said." Li Youqing's face straightened, her smile faded, and her face showed no doubt.

"..."

In the end, Su Xian accepted.

Although he knew in his heart that Li Youqing first "touched him with affection and reason" and then compensated him, there was a hidden agenda on her part.

It's probably similar to "beat a stick and give a sweet date", or the so-called "pay equal attention to kindness and power".

But... sweet dates are really sweet, so don’t give them up for free.

"Come on."

Following Li Youqing's soft shout, the door of the study was pushed open from the outside, and the Qiu Dian Army and the Dong Dian Army entered one after another, each holding a black lacquered tray in their hands.

Then, she stood up from behind the big red case, pointed to the tray in Qiu Dianjun's hand, and said with a smile: "This is the official seal and documents of 'Consultation for Military Affairs', as well as the corresponding official robes, black gauze hat, etc."

Su Xian looked around and saw that these items were indeed placed on the tray.

His complexion changed slightly, and then he gave a long bow to thank him.

From now on, Su Xian has been promoted, from a literary officer at the sixth rank to a military consultant at the fifth rank!
From now on, others can call him "Su Ziyi".

The title of "Su Wenxue" shall be revoked immediately.

The last time he was elected to join the military, he always refused to deal with Su Xian and tried every means to find trouble. Later, Su Xian investigated the case and found out that this person was secretly secretly involved.
Central Tongliao.
