Reborn Concubine Queen

Chapter 224: Getting Together (2)

With an embarrassed expression, Zhu Xi picked up the curtain and stood by the door: "Miss, you are looking for me."

Seeing that it was her, Shi Yiqing smiled and said, "I was so busy last night that I forgot to talk to you. I heard from Madam Xu that I put you and Mo Wu together yesterday. Did you sleep well?"

Zhu Xi hurriedly lowered his head and replied: "If Miss Hui, sleep well, Miss Lao will remember."

Shi Yiqing said in surprise: "Sister Zhuxi, you and I are old acquaintances, and we got along pretty well before, why have we become so estranged today? But who in my room bumped into Sister Zhuxi?"

Zhu Xi waved his hands in a panic, and said: "Miss is overwhelmed. Zhu Xi came to serve Master Qi'er under the order of the old lady. He should abide by his duty, observe etiquette, and dare not tarnish the Shi family's reputation outside."

Shi Yiqing lowered his eyes and smiled, holding a tea bowl and saying to Jianliu who was sweeping the room: "This tea is no longer strong, go and change it."

Jian Liu glanced inexplicably at Zhu Xi who was huddled by the door, and went down carrying the tea bowl to change Shi Yiqing's tea.

"There's no one in the room this time, can you and I relax and talk?" Shi Yiqing got up and walked to Zhu Xi's side, and said softly, "I'm asking you, but when Scoopa came, did you see what you said to you?" ?”

Zhu Xi's eyes flickered darkly, and he replied softly: "He came here in a hurry this time, and never spoke to me."

Shi Yiqing frowned and said in thought: "Since it's not scorpion, then only a few girls on my side are making sarcastic remarks. Zhuxi, you have also served the old lady for many years, and some things should be understandable. They Don’t worry about chewing your tongue, just live your own life.”

Zhu Xi bowed in response, thanking Shi Yiqing.

"When you came to look for me the day before yesterday, you told me that as long as I could save you from the Shi family, you would follow me." Shi Yiqing led Zhu Xi to the couch in the inner room and sat down, "But at that time you I also saw that it was the old lady who sent you to me, not me."

Shi Yiqing paused, carefully scrutinizing the subtle changes in Zhu Xi's expression: "I think the old lady really loves you, and she is sending you to my side to serve you, but what she said is Dao Qi'er Beside me, even if the old lady has an accident in the future, I will definitely treat you well according to the days you have been serving by Qi'er's side."

As he said that, Shi Yiqing sighed: "The old lady is very scheming, it can be said that she has broken her heart for you."

In order to avoid the old lady and Qin Xing, Zhu Xi did not hesitate to abandon the old lady and find a new owner. It is not wrong to be dedicated to herself, but the old lady is better at it, and in this seemingly benevolent way, Zhu Xi was killed I'm afraid Zhu Xi will feel guilty every time he thinks of the old lady in the future.

Shi Yiqing sent out the bamboo breath full of thoughts, the noon blazing sun shone through the eaves on Shi Yiqing's body, Shi Yiqing looked against the light, the sky was as blue as water, it was a rare good weather.

I don't know what Gao Qichang is doing at this moment, I don't know if he sees the sky is as blue as hers, and if he sees it, he will miss himself very much.Or, he simply forgot what he had said to her.

Gao Qichang, who was trapped by the emperor in the Palace of Qinzheng, sneezed three times in a row, trying to hide it, but the emperor finally saw him: "Your Majesty, forgive me, I will lose my composure."

Emperor Minggan laughed loudly and said: "It's nothing, just don't allow another time, if there is, I will punish you..." Before he finished speaking, Gao Qichang, who was standing below with his hands down, heard an extremely loud sneeze coming from his head. One after another, one higher than the other.

Gao Qichang suppressed a smile and knelt down, cupped his hands and said loudly: "Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the emperor."

When such an incident occurred at this juncture, Emperor Ming Qian's face was a little tense: "Gao Aiqing is talking about it, where did you come from?"

Gao Qichang answered loudly: "As the saying goes, the emperor is a real dragon, and he is extremely noble! When the emperor is angry, Kyushu will be in turmoil, and when the emperor is happy, all things will be alive. Now that the river in the south is dry, we just wait for God to reward him with a heavy rain. Let the crops be nourished, hope that the land will be fertile, and there will be a good harvest next year! Now God is only waiting for the order of the emperor. I am afraid that in a few days, there will be a downpour between the heavens and the earth. Bless the prosperity of the Dayan Dynasty !"

Although these words are suspected of flattery, but now the whole court is worried about the drought, and Emperor Mingqian has arrested a few money-grubbing officials to suppress public grievances. After all, the effect is very little. It is cheaper than a rain .

A self-proclaimed upright speaker jumped out, hissing and sneering: "I also thought that General Gao would learn to watch the stars at night, but I never thought that General Gao would also learn this kind of flattery!"

Gao Qichang straightened his upper body and retorted: "I don't know how to watch the stars at night, but Lord Ouyang said that there will be such flattering words in the end, isn't it clear that I am flattering the Lord? Could it be that in the eyes of your Lord Ouyang, Your Majesty Is it an uninitiated one?"

The officer panicked, knelt on the ground and yelled: "Your Majesty, that's not what I mean, Your Majesty!"

Emperor Mingqian never liked to talk about officials, but he wanted to show the world the appearance of a virtuous corporal: "Gao Qichang, you have to know that this drought is no longer a matter of a day or two, and no one said it will happen in a few days. It will rain. If there is no news of rain in the south after five days, you are really suspected of flattery. When the time comes to impeach you, I will not let you down because of your meritorious deeds in suppressing bandits about you!"

The uncle of the Gao family, who was an official in the same dynasty, rushed forward to intercede for Gao Qichang: "Your Majesty, Qichang is still young, and he never knows the seriousness of his words. Now the court is uttering wild words. I hope the emperor sees that he joined the army at a young age. Forgive him this time!"

The officer hated Gao Qichang for framing him just now, and said hoarsely, "Master Gao, everyone in the court knows that General Gao is your nephew, no matter how you say it, you should avoid suspicion, you shouldn't be so upright. Plead for him!"

Emperor Minggan waved his hand to stop the quarrel in the court: "I called you here to discuss matters today. It is about the invasion of our Yanzhou by the Puppet Chu. You two should not quarrel about this matter. After five days, if you have not When it rains, I will never take sides, and will definitely punish Gao Qichang!"

When they got off the court, Gao Qichang's uncle rushed up to Gao Qichang who was in front, and said with a complaining expression: "You talk about you, but you want to talk nonsense, and let others catch you!"

Gao Qichang smiled confidently: "Uncle, don't worry, my nephew promises that there will be news within five days, and then my nephew will have to see how that Ouyang man will deal with himself!"
