The Beloved in the Palm

Chapter 79 Two fierce men collided

The "happy event" mentioned by Xu Qi was mysterious.

Xue Qingyin asked him perfunctorily: "Is it my aunt who is pregnant? Or is my cousin's girlfriend willing to get engaged to him?"

"Neither." Xu Qi shook his head.

Xue Qingyin became more alert: "It's not like he is using my name to do business with others, right?"

Xu Qi hurriedly said: "How dare he? The happy event I mentioned is also something that will bring glory to you, Qingyin."

He Songning interrupted, sarcastically: "Could it be that my uncle also recognized a godfather?"

Xue Qingyin: "..."

What stimulated He Songning?

Xu Qi also looked at his eldest nephew and said, "There is a Dou Fuping in the capital. Have you heard of him?"

He Songning said coldly, "No."

Xue Qingyin was stunned and said, "His uncle is the Minister of Personnel, Dou Fuping?"

Now it was Xu Qi's turn to be stunned: "How did Qingyin know?"

Xue Qingyin thought that this person was involved in a series of cases in the original book, and finally found out that it was the King of Wei.

The original body had become the concubine of the King of Wei at that time. Because of her beauty, she was favored. This matter involved her. Later, the whole capital knew that the daughter of the Xue family was an arrogant person who used the name of the King of Wei to make money outside.

The original body died miserably later, which was also one of her crimes.

Xue Qingyin stared at Xu Qi and asked doubtfully, "Does your uncle know him?"

"Yes, we hit it off right away. He doesn't despise our Xu family as a merchant family and is willing to befriend us. It's really rare. In fact, we have been in contact for a few days, but I just heard the good news from him today..."

"...Are you going to buy an official position from him?" Xue Qingyin interrupted him.

Xu Qi paused suddenly.

He Songning on the side was stunned.

Xu Qi lowered his voice: "Qingyin is getting smarter and smarter. How come you guessed it before I even said it?"

He Songning couldn't help laughing out loud.

This idiot.

Xu Qi also asked: "What is the nephew laughing at?"

Xue Qingyin said: "He laughed at your uncle, you may not live long."

Xu Qi jumped up and shouted: "What?"

Xue Qingyin narrated calmly: "If the current emperor knows about selling official positions and titles, what will happen to your uncle?"

Xu Qi murmured: "What will happen?"

Xue Qingyin said lightly: "You will die, and your property will be confiscated. Your aunt will remarry, and your cousin will hardly do anything big from now on."

The lighter her tone, the colder Xu Qi felt behind his back.

But he quickly realized that he was the elder! So he tried to be more prudent and defended himself, saying: "How can it be as serious as you say? You have lived in the inner house for a long time and know nothing about men's affairs. How can Mr. Dou dare to sell it? How can he be guilty? Little did he know that Emperor Fengyang personally took the lead in selling official positions. Qingyin, you don't know this?"

Xue Qingyin thought to himself that I really know this.

The original novel briefly mentioned Emperor Fengyang.

"He was the emperor of the previous dynasty. How can we use him to measure the present?" Xue Qingyin curled her lips and said, "Besides, uncle, do you know why Emperor Fengyang sold official positions?"

"Why?"

"Because the Feng Dynasty was weak and shaky at that time. In order to resist the rebels and foreign enemies, it was necessary to recruit soldiers and collect grain. But the years of war made the court exhausted. Emperor Fengyang had no choice but to sell official positions and titles to make the rich gentry willing to offer gold and silver and the people willing to hand over more grain." These were not written in the original novel, but after reading the book so many times, Xue Qingyin guessed that this was probably the case.

She continued, "Now the Liang Dynasty is stable, and the foreign enemies have been killed by King Xuan. Do you know what the current emperor will do next?"

Xu Qi asked in a daze, "What?"

Xue Qingyin said, "It's time to clean up the government. First, arrest those who sell official positions and titles, and then eliminate those who form cliques." Thinking of the scene she accidentally saw at the poetry meeting last time, Xue Qingyin thought, maybe a group of people will be killed in the imperial examination.

Xue Qingyin pointed at Xu Qi and said, "Uncle, you are the first one to be killed."

Xu Qi was already dumbfounded, and his butt slipped and rolled off the stool.

He Songning couldn't help but look at Xue Qingyin deeply.

When did she know so much?

Who taught her?

Even at this time, Xue Qingyin could still speak to Xu Qi in such a calm tone.

He Songning was really surprised.

This is different from her hooking up with King Xuan with her beauty.

This was another side of Xue Qingyin that had never been seen before.

Xue Qingyin did not help Xu Qi, but lowered her head and asked, "Uncle, have you paid?"

Xu Qi trembled and said, "Not yet, but because the price is a bit high, I want to come back to get some gold and silver."

Xue Qingyin smiled and said, "That's good, you won't die."

Xu Qi felt his soul return to his chest. He climbed up by touching the table and couldn't help complaining, "Qingyin, if I really got into trouble, wouldn't you save your uncle?"

Xue Qingyin was very honest: "Uncle, if you really died, I would remember to burn incense for you. Forget about saving me."

Xu Qi: "..." He muttered something about the weak blood relationship, but he learned a lesson in his heart and knew that he must never do stupid things in the future. If something happened, his niece might really just burn a stick of incense for him.

Only then did Xu Qi remember to look around and said: "Fortunately, there are only a few of us today, and no one else heard it." If he hadn't sold that pass and couldn't help but say it in front of everyone, that would have been really serious. Something happened.

Xue Qingyin didn't say anything. She looked at Xu Qi and sighed.

The Xu family... is such an IQ basin.

She originally thought that she was not a smart person, but she didn't expect that this would bring her out!

Xu Qi was still a little uneasy, so she clutched her chest and went back to the house to rest.

Xue Qingyin also walked to Xinyi Pavilion.

He Songning followed closely behind.

Xue Qingyin asked him curiously: "Brother, don't you go back to Xue's house to see Qinghe?"

Xue Qinghe didn't act decisively enough and couldn't win those two shops. He Songning won't go back to help?

He Songning didn't answer the question: "We haven't seen each other for a few days, and we seem to have grown apart." He raised his eyes and looked at her: "Qingyin, eldest brother will help you. Is it not as good as the Xu family's hypocrisy?"

There's nothing wrong with you, right? Why are you rushing to help me now? Xue Qingyin tilted her head and looked at him.

He Songning lowered his gaze, glanced at the jade medal hanging on her waist, and said, "You will know in a few days."

…

Taichang Temple became busy.

They have to choose an auspicious day for the two princes, prepare wedding gifts, and prepare the wedding utensils, music, banquets, etc. with great care.

But now they have one more thing, and that is to have Taidivination determine the horoscopes for King Xuan and the girl from the Xue family.

It originally meant that the horoscopes should be combined before marriage.

But at that time, the horoscopes of Prince Xuan and the girl from the Lu family were compatible. Miss Lu was blessed with deep blessings and could transform King Xuan's evil spirit.

The previous results were still on Liang Dedi's desk, and now I feel it's a pity to pick them up. However, thinking of the ambiguity between the Lu family and King Wei, the emperor became cold again.

"Your Majesty, Liu Siqing would like to see you." The voice of the chamberlain sounded.

Emperor Liang De said in a deep voice: "Bring us in."

Liu Siqing is the top leader of Taichang Temple.

He walked hastily and looked anxious.

Emperor Liang De couldn't help but feel a thump in his heart when he saw it. He suddenly leaned forward and asked, "The temple minister is so flustered, but the Xue family girl's horoscope is so different from that of Prince Xuan?"

If this is the case, it will be difficult to deal with the following.

The emperor's words are hard to follow.

Is there any reason to take back your life?

Liu Siqing bowed and said, "Your Majesty, do you still remember His Royal Highness King Xuan's order?"

Emperor Liang De was unhappy and thought to himself, you are a piece of shit, why are you still asking about me?

But Emperor Liang De still said: "The owl gods snatch food, they collide with each other, and they accumulate in the mountains with anger, and they walk alone."

At this point, his face turned ugly.

Just because King Xuan's order was filled with "great evil" from beginning to end.

At this time, Liu Siqing then presented Xue Qingyin's eight-character order with both hands: "Your Majesty, please read this again."

Emperor Liang De took a look.

He also brought Kuigang and torture.

Emperor Liang De was confused.

What kind of bad life is this? They are all "bad".

But Liu Siqing said: "Congratulations, Your Majesty, His Royal Highness Prince Xuan and Miss Xue's horoscope, if separated, will be very bad, but if combined, they will be as good as cutting a right cross, and will lead to God's forgiveness. There is no such a pair of people in the world." "

Emperor Liang De did not expect such a turn of events. His expression turned from anger to joy, and he slapped the table and said loudly: "Okay! Liu Siqing has a reward!" After that, he added: "If you reward me again, the Xue family will be blessed with both happiness and wisdom. A well-educated and sensible man, I would like to reward you with a pair of eight-sided secret color porcelain vases, eight gold and silver flat holders, and a pair of green-washed pink bracelets..."

In Taichang Temple, Yi Taibu wiped his sweat secretly and thought to himself, the person who sent the message said that no matter what the horoscope is, they must be said to be a match made in heaven.

Little did he know that it was really not easy to put together this set of words about the fates of two very evil people!

I hope you don’t kill the other person right after getting married! Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to save his head.
