The black-bellied prime minister's red makeup

Chapter 23 Owe Others
In the middle of the night, Shen Qingnan was alone in the study dealing with political affairs.

There was a knock on the door, and Chen Xiangyi walked in with a bowl of ginseng soup.

Gently put it on his desk, lowered her head and said softly: "Prime Minister, don't be too tired, drink a bowl of ginseng soup."

"it is good."

Putting down the booklet and picking up the hot pot, Shen Qingnan drank the soup in one go, put the bowl on the tray, and said politely and caringly: "It's getting late, Xiang Yi should go back to rest early."

It was the first time that such an intimate address made her cheeks turn red, she didn't dare to look up at him, she shook her head gently: "Xiang Yi is okay, grandpa said let me take care of the prime minister, if the prime minister doesn't go back, Xiang Yi won't go back."

He picked up the tray and planned to leave, thinking about going to the kitchen to make some other snacks for him.

"and many more!"

Since she was eager to stop her, Shen Qingnan grabbed her wrist, and when he realized that he had behaved improperly, he quickly took his hand back, but Chen Xiangyi's forehead was already sweating nervously, and her chest heaved unceasingly.

With an awkward cough, he yelled out the door. A servant came in and ordered him to take the tray in Chen Xiangyi's hand back to the kitchen.

Cleaning up the desk briefly, Shen Qingnan walked out of the desk: "It's getting late, since that's the case, let's go back and rest together."

Going back together, Chen Xiangyi thought too much about Shen Qingnan's unintentional words.The originally reddish face became even redder, biting her lower lip as if it was about to bleed, she nodded and followed Shen Qingnan out of the study.

The two of them were speechless all the way. When they came to the door, Shen Qingnan pushed the door and walked in. When the door was closed, he met Chen Xiangyi's expectant eyes.

Since Chen Xiangyi came to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Shen Qingnan took care of almost everything except changing clothes and taking a shower.When the servants heard that she was the granddaughter of the old master, they all thought that Chen Xiangyi must be the future wife of the prime minister.Therefore, Chen Xiangyi's status in the Prime Minister's Mansion was second only to Prime Minister Shen Qingnan.

Now Shen Qingnan is a little afraid to go back to the house after going to court. Every time he goes back, he has to face Chen Xiangyi's admiring eyes and careful care, but he can't make any response or promise to her. This feeling makes him suffocate and makes him guilt.

Asking someone to buy him a suit of clothes on the street, Shen Qingnan got out of the car.

Walking back and forth on the street, when he saw a beggar in a corner, he used his silver to reward him, but he didn't expect that there would be so many beggars in the majestic capital, and his silver was gone when he came and went.

Although in the eyes of many officials, he is a cold, despicable and corrupt prime minister, but in fact he is working hard for the people and the country all the time.

When the third generation of the throne was replaced, the capital city was devastated. Agriculture and commerce declined greatly. After his father cleaned up the mess and his hard work for so many years, the capital finally gradually returned to its original appearance, but there were still so many homeless people.

Since she had no money with her, Shen Qingnan planned to go back, but saw a lot of people not knowing what they were doing not far away.Walked over out of curiosity.

Looking past everyone, it turned out that it was a little girl who looked about fifteen or sixteen, selling her body to bury her father.As long as 20 taels, not much, many men around want to buy her.

But anyone in the know knows that people like this who sell their bodies to bury their parents and bury their mothers will either become concubines after being played with by men for a few days, or they will become servants directly after being bought back, no matter which one they will be. Residual drama.

But what can be done?He has no money with him now, if he goes back to the Prime Minister's Mansion to get it, it may be too late.

Just when Shen Qingnan was in a dilemma and didn't know what to do, a slender big hand suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

"Come on, here are 50 taels for you. After burying your father, keep the rest for a small business."

There was a familiar voice, and at this moment, that slender big hand was holding a money bag made of luxurious brocade and handing it to the kneeling girl. There were 50 taels bulging in the money bag.

At this time, Xia Hanming was also wearing very ordinary clothes, but his smile was soft and dazzling, and the face that was absolutely unparalleled in the world really didn't match the clothes.

Since someone paid the money and the others left, Xia Hanming ordered the servants around him to take the girl to help her bury her father. Now there are only two people left there, Shen Qingnan and Xia Hanming.

Not wanting to be alone with him, Shen Qingnan turned to leave but was stopped.

"Let's go now? Isn't my 50 taels wasted?"

"It was given voluntarily, and no one forced you."

"Okay, then I'll come back again, anyway, I haven't gone far."

"you…."

Meeting his cold eyes, Xia Hanming smiled without fear.Folding his arms and looking down at the man who only reached his chin, he raised his eyebrows and said, "How about going somewhere with me tonight?"

"where to?"

Ask very vigilantly.They are enemies, he wants to go out with him alone or at night, who knows what he will do.

"It turns out that the prime minister will also be afraid, but you should rest assured that although my kung fu is higher than yours, don't forget that there are hidden guards around you at all times. There are so many hidden guards plus you and me. no."

What Xia Hanming said was not unreasonable, and he really owed him the 50 taels just now, so let's go tonight if that's the case.
