Quick Travel: There must be sugar in your pocket

Chapter 458 Gossip
There is still a big difference between Lu Heqing who was smoked and Lu Heqing who was in the sect.

If he hadn't descended to the mortal world, Qu Jiu might never see Lu Heqing showing his sad and helpless emotions.

Although the little Lu Heqing saw Qu Jiu for the first time, he felt familiar in his heart. He cried "Wow" in Qu Jiu's arms with peace of mind.

The child's cry was abrupt in the quiet palace, and even Qu Jiu was startled.

He immediately patted Lu Heqing on the back to comfort him.

In the past three years, his palace has been as quiet as the Zongmen's. Except for a few servants, he is the only person left in the huge palace.

Lu Heqing's crying was not only to vent, but also to give the hall a little bit of popularity.

When the servants outside the hall heard Lu Heqing's cry, they were taken aback for a moment, thinking that Lu Heqing was dissatisfied with being adopted by Qu Jiu, so they knocked on the door.

He asked with concern, "National teacher, but what happened?"

"No problem."

After finishing speaking, Qu Jiu picked up Lu and Qing in his arms, stood up, went to the bed and sat down.

Lu Heqing sat on Qu Jiu's lap, with his short and fat arms wrapped around Qu Jiu's neck, his ear-splitting crying gradually turned into a small sob.

Feeling the wetness on his neck, Qu Jiu was a little bit confused about whether to laugh or cry. He never expected that one day his great uncle would cry in his arms and still have runny nose.

Lu and Qing were probably tired from crying, so they closed their eyes and fell asleep.

Qu Jiu put Lu and Qing lightly on the bed, but still patted Lu and Qing lightly, not daring to leave.

The mother and concubine had just passed away. At this time, Lu Heqing definitely lacked a sense of security. If he suddenly woke up and couldn't see him, he might be afraid, so he had to keep guard.

The fact that the national teacher adopted Concubine Lan's child spread quickly in the palace, and everyone had different ideas.

In the past few years, the divination ability of the national teacher is obvious to all. It has never made a mistake and is very accurate. It has saved Fenglin Kingdom from many small disasters.

Adopting Feng Yanshu, whether the national teacher has ulterior motives or not, even the emperor himself is guessing.

Although Feng Yanshu is only three years old, with the emperor's current robust body, when the emperor dies, Feng Yanshu may already be able to take charge of himself.

This kind of speculation, everyone just dared to hold it in their hearts, and did not dare to spread it indiscriminately, otherwise it would easily lead to death.

But with this kind of guessing, it also made some people have troublesome thoughts in their hearts.

Qu Jiu also knew that it was a dangerous move for him to adopt Lu and Qing into his palace so openly.

However, he was sure that Lu Heqing would not be harmed, and he could also attract people who wanted to harm Lu Heqing, and then defeat them one by one.

For Lu and Qing who lived in the palace, Qu Jiu did everything by himself in his daily life.

The most indispensable thing in the temple is eyeliner, and it didn't take long for the news to spread.

Qu Jiu attaches so much importance to Feng Yanshu that those who originally wanted to make small moves dare not act rashly. After all, Qu Jiu is unfathomable and has the emperor's trust. If he is found to have done something to Feng Yanshu, his life may be over. .

And the emperor himself was also frowning. The passing of Concubine Lan was a sad thing for him, but he forgot it after a few days.

But he didn't expect Qu Jiu to pay so much attention to Feng Yanshu. He has many princes under his knees, and it's hard to pay attention to a child who is only so young.

So when Qu Jiu wanted this child, he didn't think too much about it. Qu Jiu loved it and just kept it.

The gossip and gossip in the palace had already reached his ears, and he was inevitably full of doubts in his heart.

Thinking that I haven't gone to see the national teacher for a long time, I stopped by to visit his youngest son today.

When the emperor entered Qu Jiu's range of perception, Qu Jiu already knew it.

He still calmly taught Lu Heqing how to hold a brush.

The small and chubby hands are so cute, Qu Jiu couldn't bear to make Lu Heqing feel cocooned with the brush.

It was after Lu Heqing moved in with Qu Jiu that he started to practice calligraphy.

He has been learning to hold a brush for several days, and he has long felt a little boring.

Then he turned around and said, "Master, I want to write."

Her round eyes flickered at Qu Jiu. Qu Jiu's heart almost melted when he saw it, so he agreed.

Qu Jiu shook Lu Heqing's hand, and slowly wrote the word "Heqing" on the rice paper.

"What's the word? National Teacher?" Lu Heqing looked at the words on the rice paper and asked with a wrinkled face.

"This is He, this is Qing, He Qing." Qu Jiu explained with a faint smile.

Lu Heqing said pleasantly, "Oh! It's the name given to me by the national teacher!"

Qu Jiu fondled Lu Heqing's little heads, "Yes."

Then he continued to write with Lu Heqing's small hand, and said with a smile, "There is also Feng Yanshu."

"And the name of the national teacher~"

Lu and Qing were like students actively answering questions, their voices were sweet and soft.

The cuteness melted Qu Jiu's heart.

As soon as he finished writing his name, the announcement from the eunuch outside came in.

"The Emperor is here!"

As soon as the little Lu and Qing heard that the emperor was coming, they immediately jumped off Qu Jiu's lap, and excitedly said to Qu Jiu, "Father, the emperor came to see me!"

Qu Jiu couldn't bear to tell the innocent Lu Heqing the truth. The emperor never went to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, so even if he wanted to see Lu Heqing, he would just drop by.

There must be other major things going on, but nothing has happened lately, most likely because of little gossip going around the palace.

Although the emperor is Lu Heqing's biological father, Qu Jiu still told him, "Heqing, don't forget etiquette."

As a national teacher, he doesn't have to bow down, but he still has to respect the emperor, after all, his status was given by the emperor.

Seeing the bright yellow figure, Qu Jiu got up and left the desk, and saluted respectfully with Lu and Qing.

"Yan Shu sees Father."

"My minister sees the emperor."

"Get up." The emperor waved his hand and sat on the main seat.

Then he waved to Lu Heqing, smiled kindly and said, "Yan Shu, come to Emperor Father."

Hearing this, Lu Heqing jumped happily to the side of the emperor, and was picked up by the emperor and sat on his lap.

Qu Jiu watched this scene silently, thinking that the emperor's abnormal approach to Lu and Qing must have another purpose.

After the emperor and Lu Heqing had a little exchange of feelings, he asked with a smile, "National Teacher, these few days, my Yanshu hasn't caused you any trouble, has it?"

Qu Jiu is different from when he faced Lu and Qing, he now has the appearance of rejecting others thousands of miles away, and said softly, "Yan Shu is very good."

It is only by pretending to be cold that he can deter ignorant mortals and make them think that he is unfathomable and unapproachable.

"I heard that the national teacher and Yan Shu slept together?" There was a smile in the emperor's eyes, but it didn't reach the bottom of his eyes.

Hearing this, Qu Jiu's eyebrows under the mask were slightly raised, but his eyes were still calm.

Sure enough, it was because he and Yan Shu were too close.

"Yan Shu always has nightmares at night, and the minister must take full responsibility for raising him."

He wasn't talking nonsense, because of Concubine Lan's departure, Lu and Qing would indeed have nightmares at night, but there were fewer of them now.
