Chapter 6
Thinking of his always gloomy and indifferent green eyes, Xue Shu couldn't help shivering under the warm sun of white flowers.She didn't dare to stay any longer, turned around and ran away.

Returning to the mansion in shock, he saw his uncle Li Wu standing at the gate of the mansion, as if he was waiting for her.

"Uncle, are you looking for me for something?" Looking at her uncle's clear and transparent eyes, Xueshu always had the feeling that she had nowhere to hide. Uncle was too shrewd to hide anything from him.

"Uncle, I was plotted against today." Xueshu explained quietly.

"Well, can't we avoid that one?" Uncle asked calmly.

Thinking of the force of the hard impact on the elbow, Xueshu shook her head, "It was done by the puppet under Master Tianshi."

"Puppet of Heavenly Master Meng Juoran?" Hearing these words, my uncle let out a low exclamation.

Xueshu nodded, "It's not wrong, I fought that person myself, he was very strong, like a zombie, with no vitality in his body. For some reason, he finally ignited himself."

"Spontaneous combustion?" The uncle raised his voice even more, his eyes were startled, and then he muttered in thought, "Compared to him, the puppet of Tianshi Meng Juoran is very important. It uses his blood as a guide, and uses poison to kill the puppet. It is born in life. I heard that the process is quite cruel. If you are not a person with strong martial arts, you will not be able to bear the torture and die halfway. Therefore, there are no more than five puppets under the Heavenly Master. I didn’t expect that one of them spontaneously ignited today... ...If he hadn't urged him personally, the puppet would never have died so easily." When the uncle said this, his eyes were filled with disbelief.

This topic was too heavy, and Xue Shu was a little out of breath, "Uncle, don't talk about it, I have goosebumps all over my body." She rolled up her sleeves exaggeratedly.

Uncle suppressed all emotions in an instant, nodded with a gentle smile, "Go to the study, your father is waiting for you."

"Huh, father is looking for me? He came back from Qianqing Palace so soon?" Xueshu was a little surprised. First, her father saw that she was never in the study; second, the emperor welcomed Ji Wuye in Qianqing Palace today. , ordinarily the father shouldn't come back so soon!Xueshu was a little puzzled, "Uncle, do you know what's going on?" For some reason, she suddenly felt uneasy.

Uncle seemed to see through her mind, "Don't panic, the reason why your father came back early is because the emperor will hold a celebration banquet for King Rui at night, and all the princes and nobles have to go home and prepare."

Xueshu was even more puzzled by what uncle said, "Ready to prepare? Uncle, what do you mean?"

The uncle laughed, "The queen mother issued a decree that all unmarried women over the age of 16 in the families of princes and nobles must attend the palace banquet today. Your father and king must come to you because they want to tell you something."

Xueshu narrowed her eyes all of a sudden, "Uncle, could it be..."

"That's right, tonight the Queen Mother will personally choose a concubine for King Rui." Uncle said with a smile.

"Hmph, that's how it is." Xueshu said disdainfully, and then she relaxed, "Uncle, then I don't have to worry, I just need to prepare to have a big meal in the palace tonight." As she said, she He waved his hand at his uncle disapprovingly, and ran briskly to the study.

Don't want my uncle to sigh, the emperor's thoughts are deep, Shu'er, I'm afraid you won't be able to escape tonight.

Xueshu smiled and pushed open the door of her father's study, "Father, is it good for you to find me?" She asked knowingly.

Mighty Fang Gang, Yan Shouju, the backer with a rough look, looked at the precious young girl, but sighed, "Little Wu, what can I do?"

"Father, what are you worried about! Isn't it that the Queen Mother is going to choose a concubine for Ji Wuye? Then we will be bored, and don't worry about anything else." She said it easily.

"But the Empress Dowager ordered every woman to show her talent, otherwise she will be beheaded." The father patted the desk worryingly.

"Ah, what else is there?" Xueshu was stunned for a while, and then she frowned, "How can the Queen Mother do this, isn't this intentionally embarrassing me? Father, can I not go?"

Yan Shouju looked at Yaonu sympathetically and shook his head heavily.

So, Xueshu fell silent, and sat down on the chair, wondering what she was thinking.

In fact, it is not to blame her father for worrying, each of the four older sisters above her is a talented woman with amazing talent and fame in the capital, but she is the only one who is useless and can be called a good-for-nothing.Not only does she not understand everything in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but she also hangs out with the eleventh prince Ji Wulan all day long and does all kinds of evil. No one in the capital knows that she is a rascal.Now, the empress dowager's move was aimed at her.

"Father, if you don't, you'll say I'm sick." After a while, Xueshu suggested.

"Hmph, today you played with King Rui, the whole government and people knew about it. If you let your father lie, isn't that deceiving the emperor?" Afterwards, he leaned back and laughed.

"Father, if not, I'll go learn a qin piece from Mr. Beauty right away? It doesn't seem difficult to play the qin."

"Wu'er, is it something we father and son can learn to play the piano?" Her father frowned even more.

Xue Shu swallowed her saliva, yes, her father is a big bastard, and in her father's eyes, she is a little big bastard.

This is how to do?Neither left nor right.So Xueshu stood up proudly, patted her father on the shoulder and comforted, "Father, the ancients said: When soldiers come to block, water comes to flood the earth. If the queen mother really wants to kill my head, why have no words? Don't worry, let me go." It's natural!"

"Alas..." Yan Shouzhen looked at Yaonu and couldn't help but sighed, seemingly annoyed, "It's all my father's fault. I think my son is crazy. I shouldn't have raised you as a son since I was a child. Now, oh..." The face is sad and regretful.

Xueshu squinted her eyes and smiled coolly, "Father, don't worry, maybe everything will be fine without us performing at all. Not to mention Qin Birou from Yunchao Kingdom is very interesting to King Rui, and at this moment everyone is full of love. Which of the prestigious women in the capital doesn't have eyes for King Rui? We're just waiting to see a good show tonight." After speaking, Xue Shu turned around and left with a smile, "However, Father, please tell Fourth Sister more. ! Maybe our family can have a side concubine of King Rui, then, hee hee, it will be a great thing!"

Xueshu's jokes this time, did not expect that her words would become a prophecy in the end.

"Wu'er, let your mother dress you up well at night!"

"Tch..." Xueshu was even more disdainful when she heard her father's words, she turned around and slipped faster.

In the study, Yan Shouju watched Yao Nu jumping away, his face suddenly smiled like an old fox, there was no trace of sadness in those gleaming eyes?
At night, when Xueshu rushed up to her father and fourth sister with her hair full of pearls and emeralds, her fourth sister Yan Xuejiao exclaimed "wow", "Yan Xueshu, you are a ghost! Why are you dressed like this? You can just go to the east of the city and be a matchmaker."
