Strange love across time and space

Chapter 74 Royal Ruthlessness

Su Qing said disapprovingly, "Then consider it my contribution to the soldiers of Yong'an Kingdom." King Jin took a deep look at Su Qing, and was deeply moved by this girl's selfless dedication again. Then he said, "The emperor will be happy!" Su Qing said, "The Chinese New Year is coming soon, just think of it as my New Year's gift to the Emperor." King Jin couldn't help laughing, "Miss Su's New Year's gift will be a hundred times better than those gold and silver jewelry." "Su Qing didn't want to continue being polite to King Jin, so she said, "Your Highness, do you still want to order soap?" King Jin nodded, "Of course!" Then he called Qianfeng, who saw Qianfeng walking in from outside the door and taking out the soap. A banknote was handed to Su Qing. Su Qing took it and saw that it was a banknote of five hundred taels. He was surprised and said, "Your Highness wants to order 5,000 pieces of soap for your residence?" King Jin shook his head, "Just one thousand taels." That's enough. I'll use the rest of the money as a thank you for the secret recipe for iron smelting." Su Qing gave Qian Feng another banknote and said sternly, "I'll give it to you as I said. Your Highness, I'd rather take a small amount of silver." Come with the ticket." King Jin liked Su Qing's domineering look even more, but he could only nod helplessly towards Qianfeng, who took out another one hundred tael silver note and handed it to Su Qing, Su Qing accepted it. Ask Qingzhu to bring pen and ink, write a deposit slip and give it to King Jin. King Jin still wanted to chat with Su Qing, but he couldn't find a reason to stay, so he had to leave.

After King Jin left, Mrs. Jiang came in and asked, "Qingqing, what did His Highness Prince Jin talk to you about?" Su Qing recounted what happened when she and Ding Xiang were shopping that day. Mrs. Jiang said anxiously, "You kid, then Why didn't you tell me when you came back in the day? Then Xiao Ran was a side branch of the Duke's mansion. Have you forgotten the power of the queen? Also, His Highness Prince Jin saved you, why didn't you tell your parents? We have to be grateful anyway. Let's talk about it!" Su Qing said helplessly, "I think these are all trivial matters, not worth mentioning, so I didn't say anything." Jiang said angrily, "A trivial matter? You were almost bullied by a gangster and called it a trivial matter? What do you call it a trivial matter?" Is it a big deal?" Su Qing knew that she was being ignored, but she still said stubbornly, "Birth, old age, illness and death are the big things." Jiang sat down on the chair angrily. Seeing this, Aunt Lin quickly gave her some relief, "Madam, don't be so angry. Yes, the lady didn’t say anything because she didn’t want you and the master to worry.” After saying that, she poured another cup of tea for Jiang. Jiang felt better after drinking the tea and said, “I’m afraid that the Xiao family will retaliate against us. It’s not like you don’t know. The temperament of the family in Guogong Mansion is very arrogant and overbearing, you can tell just by looking at Xiao Yuhan!" Seeing that Jiang was really worried about her, Su Qing felt guilty, so she came over and took Jiang's hand and said, "Mom, Xiao Ran will not take revenge. At that time, he knelt at the feet of King Jin and begged us to forgive him. With King Jin protecting him, he did not dare." Jiang looked at her daughter and asked worriedly, "Qingqing, what do you think, mother?" Prince Jin treats you a little differently." Su Qing chuckled, "Mom, just say that Prince Jin likes your daughter." Jiang Shi said angrily, "You don't look like a girl! You are not ashamed to say that people like you. !" Su Qing tilted her head and smiled, "Isn't that what mother meant?" Jiang Shi choked, forget it, there are no outsiders here, just say it directly, then coughed lightly and said, "That's what mother meant. Qing. Sir, if the King of Jin really wants to accept you as a concubine, you..." Before Jiang could finish speaking, Su Qing said, "Bah! A concubine? I don't even want to be a main concubine!" Jiang said. She reassured, "That's good, that's good! Mom is afraid that you won't be able to withstand the temptation of the royal family. You know, the royal family is ruthless..." After saying this, Jiang immediately covered her mouth and looked at the door. At this time, Phantom said, "Madam, you can rest assured, there is no one eavesdropping around." Jiang glanced at Phantom, nodded and said, "Anyway, Qingqing, mother just wants you to live out your life in peace, nothing else." No need to ask for anything." Su Qing was moved in her heart: "Mom, I understand, don't worry."

In the afternoon, Ding Xiang came. This time, Jiang didn't look at Ding Xiang as if she were her own child as before. She welcomed her warmly as if she were her future daughter-in-law, which made Ding Xiang a little embarrassed. Su Qing quickly came to the rescue and said, "Mother." ! Xiangxiang came to talk to me, you go and get busy." After saying that, he pulled Dingxiang to his yard. After Dingxiang sat down, he kept twisting the handkerchief with his hands and lowered his head in silence. Su Qing saw her like this and knew that she was embarrassed to say it, so she asked directly, "What did Dr. Ding say?" Ding Xiang hesitated and said, "My father said that he only attended the family banquet for Mr. Su's promotion and the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet in the palace. I’ve met your brother twice before, but I didn’t even say a word. I want to get to know him better.” After saying that, he lowered his head even further. When girls from other families talk about getting married, their parents only listen to the matchmaker talk about each other's family background and character, or just inquire about them, but his father asks for a deeper understanding. Ding Xiang herself feels that this request is a bit too much. Even before her fiancé died, her father never said he wanted to know more about him.

Ding Xiang thought Su Qing would be angry, but Su Qing patted her chest and said, "I was shocked. I thought what was the request? Isn't it just to have a deep understanding? Don't worry Xiangxiang, our family will definitely let Dr. Ding know the truth!" Ding Xiang was startled. He was stunned for a moment, then explained, "Actually, I have been in contact with your brother many times, and I feel in my heart that he is quite good." Su Qing took Ding Xiang's hand and sighed, "My brother is a good person, even though he is an official." A little lower, he is a fifth-grade doctor, I feel a little wronged to you." Ding Xiang said quickly, "No, no, no, Mr. Su is already very impressive at his age. There are many high-ranking officials and noble families in the capital. Mr. Su will never succeed in success in his life, but I admire Mr. Su even more for his real ability." After saying that, he lowered his head shyly. Su Qing smiled slyly, "Oh, that's good. I was worried that you might not like my brother. When my father and my brother come back tonight, I will talk to them." Ding Xiang nodded with a blushing face.

At this time, Xiu'er came to report, "Miss, the fourth prince is here!" Su Qing and Ding Xiang looked at each other. Su Qing asked Xiu'er, "What are the four princes doing here?" Xiu'er shook her head, "I don't know. I just saw that the fourth prince had someone carry a big box. He is now talking to his wife in the main courtyard." Ding Xiang said, "Qing Qing, you can't. Keep the Fourth Prince waiting. Go quickly. I'm going home too." Su Qing pulled her and said, "I just came here and I'm leaving. Let's go and see what the Fourth Prince is here for." After saying that, he pulled her. Ding Xiang walked towards the main courtyard.
