Achieve Rivers and Mountains - C222
Qin Xiaoliu went to the palace to see her daughter-in-law, Princess Yi Huan. She secretly hid behind the screen, and when Nangong Miao came in, she immediately ran to the study table, with Qi Xi patiently instructing her.
“Princess, the brush is too light.”
“I know.”
“Princess, it’s too heavy.”
“I know.”
“Princess!” The paper is broken! ”
“I know!”
Hearing that, the furious Nangong Miao finally couldn’t help but want to leave from behind the screen, but then he heard Nangong Miao ask the already trembling Qi Xi, “Qi Xi, your brain is the best, do you think those rumors about Prince Consort are true?”
Qin Xiao shrunk his body again, and then he heard Qi Xi’s reply: “Princess, how could you listen to the words of those despicable people? They just wanted the whole world to be in chaos. Since Prince Consort had taken office in the Ministry of Justice, which one of his actions had not been to seek justice for the people and be extremely satisfied? How was he a villain who would bring calamity to his country? Look at him, although he doesn’t usually change his attitude, but once he met with a big problem, wasn’t he a man that could support the heavens? Other than the little unknown with the Miss Xue Yi, she had never been out in the open. Why would she give her majesty such rotten ideas? ”
Hearing this, Nangong Miao was relieved, “I knew that Prince Consort is the best. I will have royal father capture them and kill them all.” She then continued to smile, “Look, the paper is really broken, why don’t you give me another one.” When Qi Xi had finished changing the Xuan paper, Nangong Miao said irritably: “Forget it, it’s fine. It’s so annoying. Remember, don’t write your name down. This princess’ flower deposit hasn’t been carved properly yet. ”
The master and the servant were still noisily drawing beside the table, but Qin Xiaolian had no impulse to go out. She simply laid on the bed. It seemed that the news had even reached her own daughter-in-law. This was truly a good thing that never left the house, and the bad news spread far and wide. She was in the midst of wild thoughts when the eunuch at the door sent word to the princess that she was summoned, and dismissed the seven joys. It was impossible for him to tell Nangong Miao all these shameful things about his achievements and Huaifei. However, this unlucky girl had followed him, it seemed like she was going to find out about his attitude from Nangong Miao. Although the royal family had some feelings for each other, there was still a gap between father and mother. For Esteemed wangfei, her feelings for Nangong Miao were no different from an ordinary mother’s feelings for her daughter. In the future, if they really did act against their son-in-law due to disagreements, they would at least appease their daughter first.
“Qin Xiao came out from behind the screen with a mocking smile. Since they’re worried, then I’ll just relax for them.” Big Sister Qi Xi, what did you draw? Quick, let this grandpa see! ”
Seeing Qin Xiaoliu descending from the sky, the seven of them were pleasantly surprised. Just as they were about to bow and greet him, he gently smiled and said: “I was going to surprise the princess just now, but who would have thought that mufei would call me away?” As she spoke, she came to the side of the table, exclaiming exaggeratedly, “Oh, what’s going on here? How can there be a picture of me? ”
Qi Xi was so embarrassed that her face turned red. She hung her head low, not daring to raise it. After holding it in for a long while, she twisted her body and replied, “Yes, the princess painted it for Prince Consort.”
Little Charmer Qin was smiling from head to toe, “Come on, come on, I’m not sure about my daughter-in-law yet. She drew it? Didn’t she smash the paper with her pestle? ”
Qi Xi saw that she had been hiding in the room the entire time, so she must have heard everything that had just happened. She started to secretly rejoice. With this, the princess shouldn’t even think about taking her contribution! “Jean, Prince Consort is too kind.”
“What are you laughing at?” Qin Xiao said as he picked up the drawing paper, “Aiyee, if it wasn’t for the fact that I was hiding on the bed all this time, I would really have thought that I was made by a master. Look, isn’t this the brush technique that Yuan Hongzi drew? ”
A look of pleasant surprise appeared on Qi Xi’s face. “How did Prince Consort know that Qi Xi liked copying Lord Yuan’s paintings?”
“I, Qin Xiaoliu, have never misjudged anyone. Don’t tell the princess about this matter, don’t disappoint her. This Prince Consort – just pretend to be deaf and mute for once.” As she spoke, she pointed her finger at the tip of Qi Xi’s nose. Qi Xi’s body, which she had originally wanted to dodge, was now paralyzed in her arms, unable to break free.
“Jing Nu is my daughter.” As Qin Xiaoliu spoke, he revealed a look of pity. This caused Qi Xi, who always had a low self-esteem but was proud and aloof, to be unable to suppress the restless heart that was about to jump out of her chest.
“Prince Consort, you’re really bad.”
“Men are not bad, but women don’t love them.” Qin Xiaomeng’s two front teeth were bared. The ruffian’s smile almost hooked Qixi’s marriage. At this moment, she felt that Prince Consort wasn’t ugly at all. In fact, he was even more charming and manly than Lord Mo. “Hai.” Qin Xiaoliu turned around and sighed.
“Prince Consort, is there anything you’re worried about?”
“Oh, don’t say it. Don’t you think it’s strange that mufei’s direct princess doesn’t allow you to go here? ”
As soon as she said it, she realized that she had been serving the princess ever since she was young. No matter where the princess went, she would accompany the princess.
“There are many things that you don’t know.” Seeing that he had achieved his goal, Qin Xiao didn’t waste any more words. “At that time, Xue Yi and I made a ruckus that not only the princess knew, but even mufei knew about it.”
“AHH!” “Then the Empress must have been mistaken in blaming you.” Qi Xi cried out worriedly. Last time, Qin Xiaoliu and the princess had an awkward quarrel in the palace, and the emperor had almost beaten Qin Xiaoliu to death. This time, he had even caused trouble for the imperial concubine. It was best not to let anything bad happen to him!
“Sigh, this isn’t much. At most, just beat me up again. “But, but …”
“But what?” Qi Xi saw that she did not continue and was so scared that her face turned white.
“Only, Xue Yi is a person of the Dragon Sword Villa, and the Villa Master’s identity is somewhat special. “Mufei might have misunderstood my relationship with bandits, that’s a huge crime.”
“Huh?” Qi Xi did not expect such a complicated situation.
“When the time comes, I will be unlucky. It’s fine if I am killed and cut to death, but who knows how many innocent people will be implicated. The most pitiful one is actually the princess.”
“Prince Consort –” Before Qin Xiao could finish her sentence, Qi Xi asked with a serious expression, “What does Prince Consort need to do?”
“How can I bear to implicate Qi Xi? You guys have nothing to do with this. Only, I only hope that Qi Xi can hear and hear from the princess’ mouth. ”
“Qixi understands. Prince Consort doesn’t need to worry. This servant will definitely live up to the kindness of Prince Consort Ma and Princess.”
Seeing that he had achieved his goal, Qin Xiao let out a sigh of relief, but then asked with feigned ignorance: “I was just about to pay my respects to Imperial Father, how could I be stopped outside the door by Steward Chen? Sigh.”
“Prince Consort isn’t aware of this.”
Qin Xiaoliu asked knowing the answer, “Is it another calamity that has brought some foreign beauties to father?”
Although Qi Xi knew that there was no one in the room, she still looked around and said, “Originally, Chief Steward was going to bring in his distant cousin’s niece. It’s said that her child is noble, elegant, and devastatingly beautiful. Your Majesty was looking forward to it. How could I know? How could I know? I heard that my family had lost water and was burnt beyond recognition. If I were to contribute any further, wouldn’t it scare Your Majesty? ”
Qin Xiao was shocked. She had been suspicious about Xue Yi’s attack on the green screen, and had only thought that that person was going to capture Xue Yi and use her to threaten her or him. Who would have thought that he would have to pay a tribute to the Emperor in the palace! This piece of information caused her to break out in a cold sweat, and a cold chill ran down her spine. Qi Xi seemed to have noticed something amiss as he hurriedly asked, “Prince Consort, are you alright?”
“It’s fine, it’s fine.” The little hoodlum Qin Feng gritted his teeth. Luckily, he was fine now. He hadn’t thought that the wooden lotus flower would be so venomous that it would use the snow clothes to attack him and his son!
Qi Xi continued, “Although beauties can’t enter the palace, but —” Qi Xi looked around and whispered into Qin Xiaozui’s ears, “A few days ago, after Prince Consort Ma saw His Majesty, His Majesty stopped going to the morning assembly and did not allow anyone to enter the sleeping quarters.” Saying that, she lowered her voice even more. “I heard from Official Yu who was serving His Majesty that the person in the palace is also a beautiful son, and is also a single arm! I heard that not only is it with His Majesty, but he also teaches His Majesty some meditation and martial arts. I heard that he was born with a strange ability and is a little different from us. ”
The corners of Qin Xiaob’s mouth lifted as he revealed a dark and sinister smile. All of this was exactly as he had imagined! White Lotus, you are tying yourself up like a cocoon! She sneered sinisterly. Qi Xi looked over from the side and jumped in fright. She couldn’t help but step back. “Prince Consort, you —”
Qin Xiaolian patted Qi Xi’s shoulder, “It’s fine if you say these things to me. Everyone else, don’t reveal them. Be careful not to say anything bad.”
The construction of the Eternal Bamboo City had been going on for a long time. It had not failed his mission, and he had been working day and night on it. However, not a single person on the construction site had died from exhaustion or illness. He divided the people he had recruited into two groups. One of them was in charge of the day and the other was in charge of the night. At first, the people who were recruited all had complaints in their hearts, but their daily meals were excellent. There was meat, food, and soup. The treasures of Everlasting Bamboo City were like heavenly treasures, the food on the ground was like ingredients, even the tiniest cooking was delicious. Most of these people only ate and ate at home. Some of them had never seen meat before, so they only did half a day’s worth of work. Although their work was a bit tiring, it was much more comfortable compared to living at home. Those who were already serving as corvée had never been treated like this before. They felt as if they were in heaven. Everyone regarded the achievement as the savior, and for a time everyone praised it. For a moment, Nangong Kairan forgot to urge him. Every day, he would be dispirited.
