Your Highness, the Empress Runs Away Again - C247 Forest Gan
Life was like a play, a play was like life.
Although a song is very short, but it refracts, but the human nature is a thousand different ways.
In the time that Qi He had been living in the Imperial Advisor’s estate, he had heard of a certain person.
A man with a belly full of meridians could not pass the Imperial Examinations. Helpless, he could only come to Qin Fei and ask for an audience.
Even though the steward had already told him many times that the Imperial Advisor did not wish to see him, he still hung around the estate every day.
Qi He was quietly swinging on his own in the garden, basking in the sunlight. It was said that the environment could make one forget about it, which was an exaggeration, but fortunately, it did not make the originally extremely bad mood worse.
After finishing his business in the study, Qin Fei came to see Wei He.
“Are you used to living here? If there’s anything that the servants aren’t considerate of, feel free to tell me.”
Qi He stopped swinging the swing and looked up, “No, I’ve lived here before, so I’ve always been familiar with this place.”
Besides, the servants that his master had chosen for him were all nimble, nimble, and clever, so how could there be any mistakes?
Presumably, his master cared too much about him, which was why he was so concerned.
Qin Fei nodded, “That’s good. What do you want to eat for dinner? I’ll tell the kitchen to prepare it.”
He might be a little tight about things with Qi and the others, but he was already doing his best to keep her company, not to leave her alone.
“Calm down.” She was going to say whatever it was, but it wasn’t respectful. She was trying to restrain herself from hurting others.
It was normal for her master to take pity on her and protect her, but she couldn’t use this as a source of pride. After all, the people around her were already suffering because of her.
“Alright.” Just as Qin Fei finished speaking, the butler walked over and asked.
“State Grandmaster, that Lin Mu is still outside the gates. What should we do?”
Qin Fei’s expression turned ugly all of a sudden.
Wei He had heard of this person before, so he was very curious. He asked tentatively, “Master, you still won’t see him?”
With a bitter face, Qin Fei said, “He wants me to grant him half of his duties, but I’ve never asked about the trifling matters of the imperial court. Besides, if I really allow him to do so, there’ll be the suspicion of me accepting bribes.”
Lin Jia was a Humble Class student, and he did not have much silver to offer as bribes. If there really was silver, he would not be wagging his tail in front of his own residence.
Wei He let out a meaningful laugh, “Master always did things her own way in the past. What, do you have concerns now? Was it because the government changed Master, or was it because of the people? ”
Sometimes, the gossip of the common people would be like sharp knives slicing on people’s bodies, causing them to feel unbearable pain. Even their always-proud and aloof Master had changed, how many people in the world could resist the pressure of public opinion?
A cold smile appeared at the corner of Qin Fei’s mouth, “None of them. It’s you.”
“Me?” Qi He couldn’t understand, he didn’t know Lin Mu. It didn’t matter whether his master saw him or not, why did he drag her into this? But since his master said so, there must be a reason for him to do so.
“Qi He, there are some things that Master shouldn’t make too clear.” Qin Fei turned around and instructed the butler, “Ignore him. After a long time, he will naturally leave.”
In Qi He’s heart, he treated her well just because his master cared for his disciple. It was good that she had always treated him this way. There were some things that would only harm each other if they were exposed.
Speaking of changing this matter, his heart was deeply moved. In the past, he was indeed a maverick. He only hurt that little Taoist in front of Qi He. What happened after that? What happened next? He almost died at her hands.
Of course, he didn’t blame her for this. If he had to blame something, he would blame the little Daoist for being impure. First, he enticed Qi He to fall in love with him, then he abandoned her.
At the same time, he learned a lesson about this matter. Sometimes, recklessness and rashness didn’t make things happen, but only made things worse. After all, there wasn’t only one person in this world who could live.
As a result, he was still an ordinary person. He was no longer that aloof and aloof immortal crane, but rather, a woman in his heart.
“Yes.” The butler was about to turn around and leave when Qi He called out to him.
“Wait!”
Qin Fei was puzzled. “You want it?”
“I have no business anyways so why don’t you give that man to me? I want to see his abilities.” Some people only know after they get along that they are untrustworthy and useless.
What about Sun Sran? What was her mood? Is it hatred? Hate him for tarnishing his body? However, he drank the wine on purpose and paid the price of his life for it.
This kind of feeling could not be said to be hatred or forgiveness. She only hoped that she could flip the page and not repeat it in her heart.
Qin Fei hesitated. “But he …”
“He’s a man, but Master thinks that since I’ve been hurt by a man, I won’t be able to come into contact with other men? “I’m not that stingy, what should come will eventually come. I can’t run away forever, unless there’s only women left in this world.” Besides, she wouldn’t want to involve others in her resentment.
After all, it wasn’t easy for everyone to be alive. She only wanted to see what kind of person that man, who was determined to become an official, was.
Qin Fei thought about it for a moment. This was good as well. He would just treat it as finding something to relieve her boredom.
Moreover, the fact that she was able to open her heart and interact with other men showed that she still had the right mindset and did not set up a firm barrier in her heart due to the severe blow she had received.
“Alright, go get that person over here.” Qin Fei instructed the butler in a soft voice.
After the butler left, Qin Fei said a few words to Qi He before heading to the kitchen to prepare her dinner.
In front of the Imperial Advisor’s gates, the man who had heard about the opportunity to enter was beaming with joy. He was even more excited than his mother who had been resurrected.
He followed behind the butler and asked, “Why did the honored Imperial Advisor suddenly agree to my request?”
The steward continued to walk forward. Originally, he had no intention of responding to the steward, but seeing how humble he was and how the Imperial Advisor was different from the other officials, he could not look down on them and ruin the reputation of the Imperial Advisor’s estate. He replied, “The person you wish to meet is not my lord, but the princess, Qi and the prince.”
“Qi He?” The man was obviously surprised.
He had heard that something bad had happened to the Qi and Princess of the Duke’s Mansion. Could it be that they had gone mad from the shock? Was he summoned to vent his anger?
But no matter what, if he saw her, he might die. If he didn’t see her, he would definitely die of poverty. So after weighing the pros and cons, he braced himself and went up.
