Cannon fodder rules for face-slapping prostitutes

Chapter 20 The Fourth Prince

She said leisurely like a pity:
"This painting is quite beautiful. It's a pity that it's broken. If I had tools, I would definitely mend it so that no cracks can be seen."

It was only then that Chu Jiangling and Chu Jianghu discovered Shu Qing. Hearing what she said, Chu Jianghu raised his immature and thin yellow face and asked with great anticipation:

"Big sister, can you really restore this painting?"

Chu Jiangling also became short of breath. Looking back on what happened just now, she realized that it was Shu Qing who saved them, and thanked them politely:
"Thank you sister for helping me just now. If my sister can really help Ling'er restore this scroll, Linger will definitely repay her."

Shu Qing had been waiting for this sentence, and her face showed embarrassment:
"This painting can indeed be repaired, but I don't have any tools, and it will take four or five days..."

"Can it be repaired in four or five days?"

Chu Jiangling and Chu Jianghu looked at her with excited black eyes. If it was four or five days, they would have a way to fool her.

"Please help us, big sister. I don't want my father to punish my sister. It's cold and hungry in the ancestral hall."

Chu Jianghu is actually seven years old, but he looks like he is only five or six years old as he has not had enough to eat all year round. Looking at him, Shu Qing can't help but think of his unborn child, and his heart is inevitably moved:

"I can help you restore this painting, but you have to promise me one thing."

Chu Jiangling is already 14 years old, and she is also the daughter of the Hou family, so naturally she will not agree indiscriminately, but speaks with discretion:
"As long as it's not something harmful to nature, Ling'er will definitely go all out."

Chu Jianghu also nodded his head again and again.

Shu Qing patted Chu Jianghu's head amusedly, and had a good impression of Chu Jiangling, and said with a smile:
"Actually, what I want you to do is very simple. I must keep the restoration of your paintings a secret. Can it be done?"

After hearing her finish, Chu Jiangling couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief, but felt that he was too petty, so he made some impressive promises:
"Thank you sister, Ling'er and Hu'er will never reveal a word, Ling'er is ashamed, I don't know the identity of my sister yet?"

"Prime Minister Shu Qing, my sister should be no stranger."

Not to mention Chu Jiangling, even Chu Jianghu, who is less than ten years old, has heard about her. Of course, it is a very bad rumor, so he is even more surprised. How can this older sister with a dusty temperament and a gentle manner look like everyone else? He said that the rumors were all lies, just like his sister, who was so good, but they called her and him thieves, it was too much.

……

After agreeing on how to hand over the paintings to each other, Shu Qing took Chu Jiangling and Chu Jianghu to the garden where the palace banquet was held.

Not long after they left, two majestic men walked out from the rockery not far away, one was the four emperors' uterus in crescent white robes, and the other was the crown prince's womb.

"Second brother, my future sister-in-law is very interesting. I really thought she had discovered us just now. It turned out that she was cheating, but she almost defrauded the emperor. Just now, the younger brother wondered if the second brother was here just now." At the mother's side, why I suddenly made a rescue for the future emperor's wife, now I finally understand, if I have such an interesting fiancée, I will naturally feel sorry for her." The fourth prince looked at Gong Wushang jokingly.

In the queen's bedroom just now, the fourth prince was also present.

From his point of view, Shu Qing's arguing about Xuexiu is actually not beneficial to her at all.

The queen is the best face, and the fact that she has thoroughly studied embroidery art has already spread throughout the capital. If Shu Qing finally proves that it is Xuexiu, it means that the queen can't even recognize the snow embroidery. This is clearly beating the queen. Naturally, the empress would not have a good look at Shu Qing, and she might dislike her even more in the future.
