The system forced me to be emperor

"Miss, I'm going to prepare refreshments." Tweety ran away in a hurry.

Xiao Rui took two steps forward, cupped his hands and said, "Cousin Qingqing!"

Xiao Qingqing's cheeks became even redder, and she said, "You can just call me Qingqing, it sounds weird to call me cousin."

Xiao Rui smiled. He has never seen the posture of a little girl like Xiao Qingqing. It is true that women become stupid when they fall in love. Xiao Rui believes that as long as he says he is short of money, Xiao Qingqing will sell the treasures of the palace for money. How would the king feel.

Hey, don't say it, Xiao Rui has found a good way to get rich.

"Why are you here?" Xiao Qingqing was a little nervous, and it took a while to calm down.

Xiao Rui said: "It's almost Chinese New Year, I'm here to visit the prince, and I want to see you even more. I'll leave for a few days, like three autumns. How is your body recovering?"

Body recovered?Xiao Qingqing was taken aback, she wasn't sick, and then she reflected, her cheeks turned redder, and she said in a low voice: "It's been a long time ago, I don't blame you!"

Xiao Rui laughed dryly, he was already very fierce, and with the addition of good medicine, how could Xiao Qingqing be an opponent?

It's not my intention to use force, I only hope that Haibo will be calm.

It's just that you can't say this, so Xiao Rui changed the subject, happened to look at the embroidery on her table, and asked, "Are you embroidering?"

Xiao Qingqing hurriedly took the embroidery and put it behind her, nodded, and said, "Well, let's practice it, I haven't touched it for a long time, and my technique is rusty."

"Really? Let me see and appreciate it." Xiao Rui said.

Xiao Qingqing hesitated for a moment, she was not unfamiliar, she just didn't know how to do it.But when she saw Xiao Rui's bright eyes and the smile on the corner of her mouth, she seemed to be drugged, and unconsciously took out the embroidery.

He looks so handsome when he smiles.

Xiao Rui took the embroidery, looked at the pattern on it, and couldn't help but praise: "These two big geese are so beautiful."

"That's a mandarin duck!" Xiao Qingqing was so ashamed, her voice was extremely low, she didn't dare to look at Xiao Rui with her head down.

"Eh..." Xiao Rui really wanted to slap himself, there is no one who embroiders a big goose, he quickly said: "Let me just say, how can a big goose be so slender, look at the use of stitches, this mandarin duck embroidery is really good Well, I like plump mandarin ducks, just like the smell of stewed goose. I wonder if you can give it to me after the embroidery is finished?"

Xiao Qingqing smiled like a flower, and nodded again and again: "Okay!"

She was very happy in her heart. She originally wanted to give it to him. She thought he would dislike it, but she didn't expect to like it so much.

It would be even more perfect if the word "big goose" could not be mentioned.

At this time, a group of maids brought tea, snacks, and fruits.

"Are these things to your liking? If you don't like them, I'll ask my servants to prepare them." Xiao Qingqing asked.

Xiao Rui looked at a table of dim sum fruits, and there were even grapes, which seemed to be stored in the freezer, and there were only a few people in the entire capital who could enjoy these out-of-season fruits in winter.

Xiao Rui smiled and said: "You don't need to be so polite, this grape suits my taste, but I like to peel grapes, unfortunately I am clumsy."

Xiao Qingqing had already dismissed the maid, and when she heard Xiao Rui's words, she rolled her eyes at him, and then she took off the grapes with her slender hands, gently pulled off her coat, and then sneaked a look around to make sure there was no one else, and hurriedly packed the grapes into the room. In Xiao Rui's mouth.

Xiao Rui suddenly felt moist, and he didn't know if it was the moist and delicious grapes, or something else.

Peeled four grapes for Xiao Rui in a row. Xiao Rui was afraid that King Ruyang would suddenly come out, so he would be sad.

So Xiao Rui reluctantly stopped this behavior.

"Where did the prince go? Do you know?" Xiao Rui asked.

Xiao Qingqing said: "I went to find King Zhou for tea. I've been there for a long time, and I'll be back in a while. You can wait a little longer. By the way, what do you want from my father? Can I help you?"

Xiao Rui shook his head and said: "It's nothing, it won't be Chinese New Year soon, so I came to visit. By the way, Qingqing, I just entered the mansion and took a look at the Ruyang Palace. It is no smaller than my Xianwang Mansion. Such a large family business wants to maintain , How many people are there in the mansion?"

"I'm not sure, there are more than 100 people, most of them are servants and guards, maintaining the operation of the entire palace. Some people are my father's confidantes and staff, but I don't even know them." Xiao Qingqing said.

Xiao Rui joked: "Staff? Is it possible that the lord wants to recruit his staff to give advice in order to play chess?"

"How is it possible! Of course it's not for playing chess. Although my father is not on duty in the court, he still holds the title of Marshal of the Army and Horses. Presumably that's why he recruited his staff." Xiao Qingqing explained.

Xiao Rui nodded. According to the ranks of generals in the Great Xia Kingdom, the governors of the five major governor’s mansions are second-rank and third-rank officials, and they manage all the military guards in the Great Xia. Under special circumstances, His Majesty grants amulets by decree to have the right to command the world's soldiers and horses.King Ruyang is highly respected and trusted by Emperor Xia, so no one can refute his title of Grand Marshal.

There are only two possibilities for the person who colludes with Cao Hanbing to enter and leave the Ruyang Palace, one is that this person is familiar with the Ruyang Palace, and the other is that this person lives in the Ruyang Palace.

If he is only acquainted with the Ruyang Palace, then this person's background has fallen into a dead end, but this does not make Xiao Rui regretful. There are many enemies on the way to the prince's battle, and there is no need to find out the background of the enemy, and whoever stands in the way will do who.

However, if this person lives in Ruyang Palace, Xiao Rui hesitates.After all, if he can live in the palace, he is a member of King Ruyang, so if he colludes with Cao's family to assassinate him, then he will be involved in King Ruyang accordingly.

Do you doubt King Ruyang?

Jia Xu's investigation revealed that King Ruyang was not close to any prince, and even in order to avoid being involved in the prince's dispute, he repeatedly advised His Majesty that he hoped to return to his hometown in Lanling to support his old age.But every time he was retained by Emperor Xia, he was highly valued by Emperor Xia.

And with the current relationship between me and Xiao Qingqing, would King Ruyang harm me?

In addition, there is another possibility, that is, although the hidden person is a member of the Ruyang Palace, he is also someone else's hidden game, hiding in the Ruyang Palace.

Xiao Rui sighed, just based on Cao Hanbing's words, it was too difficult to find out the secret of the hidden person, Xiao Rui did not report any hope.

Xiao Qingqing kept looking at Xiao Rui, his thinking expression fell into Xiao Qingqing's eyes, making her unable to help asking: "You must have something, can I help you?"

Xiao Rui came back to his senses, looked at Xiao Qingqing's gentle eyes, raised his hand and gently stroked the black hair on her forehead, and said, "Suddenly thought of some trifles, it doesn't matter."

Although Xiao Qingqing is free and easy, since she put her mind on Xiao Rui, she has matured instantly. Since Xiao Rui didn't say anything, she must have kept it from herself. She secretly kept it in her heart, and was going to investigate secretly to see if she could help him !

Afterwards, Xiao Qingqing embroidered, Xiao Rui sat beside her and accompanied her, and the two were still chatting. Under the warm winter sun, this picture turned out to be so warm.

It's just that what Xiao Rui didn't expect was that King Ruyang didn't wait, and an unexpected person came.

"Ah! Husband, why are you here?"

A woman appeared in the courtyard, and when she saw Xiao Rui, she couldn't help but exclaim.

Xiao Rui trembled and almost spilled tea on his crotch. When he looked up, he saw Li Ruoxue, who had met once, standing there, greeting him with a smile.

Seeing Li Ruoxue coming, Xiao Qingqing quickly put down her embroidery and said, "Ruoxue, why are you here?"

Li Ruoxue approached and said: "The sun is shining today, so I want to go out with you. How did you two know each other?"

After finishing speaking, Li Ruoxue sized Xiao Rui up and said with a smile, "Honey, last time I said goodbye to Qu Shangchi, I didn't expect to see you here."

Xiao Rui smiled awkwardly, he knew that today would reveal his secrets, so he shouldn't have lied to Li Ruoxue in the first place, fortunately, such a stalking husband does not exist in this world, only he understands.

"Miss Li, it's a pleasure to meet you!" Xiao Rui replied.

Xiao Qingqing was surprised and said: "Husband? King Xian, when did you change your name? Oh, I remembered, Qushang Pool! That night in Qushang Pool was the private pavilion of you and Ruoxue sister?"

After finishing speaking, Xiao Qingqing immediately tasted it, and immediately glared at Xiao Rui.

Xiao Rui returned an embarrassed smile.
