Chapter 137 Princess: My brother caught rape and won't take me
Qin Shou knelt down on one knee, straightened his back, and replied loudly, "Return to the saint, I don't know."

The emperor Xi Chaosheng pursed his lips, stared at him for a long time without calling him up, and then said, "It's not a crime to let Mimi personally intervene in such a matter, and she is not afraid of dirtying her eyes, hmph, isn't it a crime?"

Qin Shou was silent, Concubine Luo watched coldly, she was determined not to intercede with him.

"I also heard that you are coercing this matter and asking Mimi to exchange it with golden coupons for the alchemy book?" Xi Chaosheng asked slowly.

Qin Shou glanced at Concubine Luo from the tip of his eyes, "That's exactly what happened."

Even though he agreed, Xi Chaosheng didn't get angry, he just looked at Qin Shou like that, and asked word by word, "Qin Aiqing, what do you think now?"

Qin Shoulue thought about it, and immediately changed his tone, "It's not good for me to keep the golden certificate of the alchemy book. However, I don't want to repent, and I threaten you with the Queen's affairs. His great love, that's why I want to get back the golden voucher of the Danshu."

Concubine Luo squinted at him contemptuously. This man is such a snobbish person. He looks the same in front of her and another in front of the emperor. Who says he won't be obsequious?It's just that the people who please are concealed.

The emperor thought for a while, "Of course the golden voucher of the book of alchemy can be returned to Aiqing, but Aiqing should tell me about it, Mimi can't make the decision."

Qin Shou curled his lips, "Yes, I am willing to be punished for my lack of consideration."

Xi Chaosheng is now easy to talk, he bent down and helped him up himself, "Aiqing is the Minister of the Great Yin Humerus, how can I be willing, but the Queen's matter is of great importance, I really listen to Mimi's words, Aiqing has already There is no way to deal with it, so let’s pay off the merits.”

Qin Shou had no choice but to respond, "Minister, thank you Long En."

Concubine Luo, who was listening to the end from the beginning, opened her eyes wide. She looked at the harmonious monarch and his ministers, and suddenly felt that her previous tricks were simply unworthy of the stage. The book gold voucher was deducted, and Qin Shou was willing to do things for nothing.

She seemed to be opened a novel door by Xi Chaosheng, and she couldn't help sighing that such a method could still be used.

Xi Chaosheng has been paying attention to Concubine Luo, and seeing her pensive face, he knows that she has probably learned a little bit.

Doing this is actually against his heart, but as an emperor, he has to use such emperor techniques from time to time.

Xi Chaosheng asked suddenly, "I don't know why Aiqing asked me to rush here with Sima Taijun?"

Concubine Luo suddenly realized, she said, why did my elder brother go up the mountain with Sima Taijun, it was Qin Shoushi's trick.

Sure enough, Qin Shou said with an expressionless face, "As the ministers of the sages, the Sima family is also a noble family of the emperors of the three dynasties. However, they have always been the most selfish and selfish. You must know that a country If you don’t exist, how can you have a family, so right now is a good time for the sage to make the Sima family completely surrender.”

Xi Chaosheng is not stupid, indecision does not mean that he does not have those devious thoughts, but that he often has too many ideas and is not sure which one to use. Therefore, when Qin Shou said this, he understood.

With one hand resting on his waist and the other behind his back, he walked back and forth a few steps, and met Qin Shou's eyes. In an instant, the two of them understood each other, but they understood a lot.

Concubine Luo couldn't understand, but with Qin Shou intervening in this matter, she knew that the fate of the Sima family was almost doomed.

Xi Chaosheng and Qin Shou didn't talk about anything else, they went to see Master Xuanming together. As for Concubine Luo, Xi Chaosheng drove her back to rest and told her severely that she didn't need to interfere in this matter.

Concubine Luo went back to the room gloomily, she didn't need to drink any more medicine today, because she had just recovered from her early illness and her mouth was tasteless, so she used several pieces of small snacks made by Ji Xia, and shared two or three pieces of jade if she could not run out. Xifu, but all the others were given to the little novice in the temple.

In the evening, there was a message from the emperor, saying that concubine Luo and her son-in-law were invited to the queen's small courtyard for dinner.

Concubine Luo didn't want to go, she felt disgusted by Sima Chuxue's face.

But Qin Shou came over and whispered, "The princess doesn't want to see a good show?"

In this way, Concubine Luo reluctantly changed into her clothes and passed away, but Xi Fu seemed a little afraid of the emperor's death, so she stayed in the wing, and Concubine Luo ordered Ji Xia to accompany her.

When we got to the ground, not only the emperor and empress were there, but also Lord Sima, Master Xuanming and Deshe were also there.

Concubine Luo sneered, and immediately regained her composure, putting on the airs of a princess, she would not give good looks to anyone except the emperor.

Such pampering and capriciousness made other people take it for granted. After all, the pampered and grown-up golden branches and jade leaves shouldn't be like this.

The emperor and the empress sat in high positions, and concubine Luo and Qin Shou sat under the left hand of the emperor. On the opposite side were Sima Taijun and Master Xuanming, but Deshe could only stand behind Master Xuanming.

The importance of status is clear at the same time.

He is dressed in a mysterious gray monk's robe, with a string of Buddhist beads wrapped around his wrist, and his eyebrows are closed. Even his bald head with ring scars does not lose half of his clean and dignified aura. Refreshingly cordial.

Even Concubine Luo would have a good impression of him if she didn't know about his prostitutes and female thieves.

Concubine Luo speculated that in her previous life, she had to take the initiative to find Qin Shou to join him, maybe it was because of Sima Chuxue, after all, if the emperor's brother had a chance, he would have a chance to get Sima Chuxue.

In fact, the final result is not like that.

Although she never asked Qin Shoushi Ma Chuxue's fate, but she thought that there would be Desai who was about to be named a national teacher, so what would be wrong?
At this moment, Concubine Luo deliberately took a few glances at Sima Chuxue, and saw that she couldn't bear to look at her, as if she didn't know her at all, she was disdainful, and her face turned cold.

The long table was filled with delicate and delicious fasting meals. The emperor glanced around and sighed, "The last time I used the fasting meal in Putuo Temple was many years ago, and the queen hadn't entered the palace yet. Woolen cloth."

Empress Sima Chuxue smiled, dignified and generous, "The saint can use more tonight."

The emperor nodded, "The queen said so."

Immediately after everyone listened to his words, the wind changed, "However, the queen has often come to Putuo Temple these years, and stays here and there for a few days, watching me and thinking about eating in the temple, but she doesn't remember to have a meal with me. Bring some back, you should be punished."

The queen took a reproachful look at him, and then picked up the fruit brew in front of her, "The concubine will punish herself with three cups, can the sage appease his anger?"

The fruit brew is also a kind of wine brewed by the monks in the temple. In fact, it cannot be called wine, because it is all pickled with seasonal fresh fruits, but it is really sweet and delicious, and not too intoxicating, so it is named Guozi. wine.

Seeing that the queen is so knowledgeable, Xi Chaosheng smiled meaningfully, and he clapped his hands and told Gong'e, "Shut up with the queen."

After filling three cups of stuffed fruit in a row, the queen raised her wide sleeves with a smile, and drank them all in one gulp.

In this way, the emperor was at peace with the matter, and he held the bamboo chopsticks, "Use them all."

Only then did the people at the table follow suit.

It took nearly half an hour for a fast meal. During this period, the empress drank the most fermented fruit. Concubine Luo also wanted to use some, but Qin Shou blocked it with his hand, and said softly, "Princess, your body is not good. , come from Kyushu."

After speaking, without giving Concubine Luo a chance to react, he grabbed the wine cup and drank it all in one gulp.

Concubine Luo smiled, but the smile didn't reach her eyes, and Sima Taijun beside her joked, "My son-in-law is really considerate, as it should be."

The son-in-law turned the empty wine cup, smiled suddenly, looked at Concubine Luo with deep and hazy phoenix eyes, and said with a low laugh, "Where is it, such a delicate person, who would want her to be bad?"

Concubine Luo made Qin Shou's eyes and tone go numb, she wished she could stay away from him, but under the watchful eyes of everyone, she could only deal with it with a stiff smile.

After a meal, the group moved to the cool courtyard again.

The octagonal palace lantern was lit in the courtyard, and it was as bright as daytime. Everyone sat around and discussed the scriptures, meanings and Buddhism with Master Xuanming first.

Even Deshe has a place and can talk freely.

Concubine Luo dozed off, so Qin Shou found an excuse and took Concubine Luo back. The emperor also turned to the queen and said, "It's getting late, and the queen and Taijun Sima are going to rest first. The little mage Kong is very excited, it will take a while."

The queen didn't refuse, she got up, her eyes flicked past everyone, and she didn't miss Deshe at all, Sima Taijun waved to her, and the grandfather and grandson wanted to take them away.

In this way, in the entire courtyard, only the emperor and Xuan Ming's master and apprentice are left.

The three of them continued the conversation at the beginning until the middle of the day, when the emperor saw sleepiness appearing on She's face, he smiled and said, "Young Master De She should go to rest."

After finishing speaking, he took another look at Xuan Ming, Xuan Ming remained calm, but De She understood immediately, it was probably because he had something to discuss and it was inconvenient for him to be present.

De She stood up, clasped his hands together and bowed to the emperor, then nodded with Xuanming, and then wanted to go back to his Zen room.

Desperate to leave, the emperor poured the herbal tea by himself, sipped it slowly, and he insisted on drinking it for a quarter of an hour from the small teacup.

Xuan Ming still had a compassionate smile on his face, and he didn't ask any questions, just accompanying the emperor like a statue of Buddha.

The emperor poured a second cup of herbal tea, and he said lukewarmly, "The incense in Zhenguan Temple is not bad, and it is close to the capital, and the queen often comes here. If I register Putuo Temple as a royal temple, what does the mage think?" ?”

Master Xuan Ming was taken aback, he twirled the Buddhist beads with one hand, and said vertically with the other hand, "Amitabha, the old man is on behalf of the temple, thank the saint for his kindness."

The emperor nodded, as if it didn't matter.

He finished his second cup of herbal tea, lifted his robe and got up, flicked his sleeves and said, "There is a place, I would like to invite Master Xuanming to walk with me, what does the Master think?"

Xuan Ming got up after him, and he did everything he could.

Emperor Xi Chaosheng's pair of peach blossom eyes, which were exactly the same as Concubine Luo's, were curved at the end to hide the coldness in his eyes. He stretched out his hand to evade, and took the first step, and went straight to the direction of the queen's wing.
