People always think I'm a broken sleeve

Just when Su Bian was 'confronting' Xuan Yue expressionlessly, Chang Huai's voice suddenly came from not far behind Xuan Yue.

From afar, Chang Huai raised his voice and called out, "Master Guowei!"

Hearing the sound, Xuan Yue frowned, turned his head slowly, and looked back in the direction of the sound.

Feng Cheng, who was still in the restaurant on the second floor, couldn't help being dumbfounded when he saw Chang Huai who jumped out of the window to find Xuan Yue as soon as Xuan Yue appeared.

When Xuan Yue turned his head, Su Bian saw that the other party's attention was finally not on him, so he turned and left without hesitation.

Before turning around, Su Bian said to Bi Zhu behind him, "Tomorrow I will go to the market to buy vegetables."

Bi Zhu replied: "Yes."

After finishing speaking, Su Bian thought of something again, frowned, and changed his words: "Forget it, we will talk about it when Yan Ruyu arrives. You will go to court with me tomorrow."

With Bizhu around, you won't be afraid of getting lost.

Bizhu was taken aback for a moment, and happily replied: "Yes~"

After a while, Su Bian walked away.

Chang Huai trotted to Xuan Yue's side, and said, "Master Guo Wei."

Xuan Yue glanced at him and said, "What's the matter?"

Chang Huai's voice froze for a moment, before he said: "It's nothing... It's just that I happened to bump into Mr. Guowei on the street, so I was quite happy."

Xuan Yue heard the words, clicked his tongue impatiently, and turned around.

Turning around, there was no sign of Su Bian in the same place, it had already disappeared without a trace.

Xuan Yue couldn't help but click his tongue again.

Chang Huai still wanted to continue talking, but Xuan Yue didn't give him the chance at all.

Xuan Yue sat back in the sedan chair and said, "I've had enough fun today, let's go home."

The servant should: "Yes."

Chang Huai stood where he was, quietly watching Xuan Yue's sedan chair drive away, silently.

On the other side, after Su Bian and Xuan Yue left, Xie Daochen came back to his senses.

Xie Qingyun looked worriedly at her elder brother who suddenly seemed very silent for some reason, and said, "Brother?"

Xie Daochen lowered his eyes and said hoarsely, "It's nothing."

Xie Qingyun was dubious: "...Is brother really alright?"

Xie Daochen thanked him, and said calmly: "Well, let's go back home."

Xie Qingyun let out a sigh.

After that, Xie Daochen, who had been staying behind closed doors before, returned to his previous appearance again.

No matter how Xie Qingyun brought up her future "sister-in-law" again, Xie Daochen never spoke again.

Xie Qingyun felt strange, and thought to herself, did my brother quarrel with 'sister-in-law'?

Xie Qingyun asked, but no matter how hard Xie Qingyun tried to pry Xie Daochen's mouth open, he couldn't pry a word out.

Back to Su Bian.

Yan Ruyu and Bizhu hadn't arrived in the capital yet, in order to save trouble, they were accompanied by Bizhu when they went to court.Accompanied by Bizhu, the matter of going to court was finally resolved.Later Donghuamen

Although Bizhu can no longer go in, but other ministers will lead the way in the future, so it is not so important to have Bizhu.

On the way to court, I ran into Xuan Yue by chance. The latter expressed his enthusiasm to lead Su Bian, but Su Bian refused without hesitation.

After being rejected by Su Bian, Xuan Yue felt deeply regretful, and left 'reluctantly'.

In short, after the matter of going to court is resolved, it is indeed a lot of worry.

Because he had already told Qiu Qingxi, the young minister of the Taiqing Academy, that he didn't care about the affairs of the Taiqing Academy and had no interest in this position, so Su Bian didn't even bother to pretend

up.After going down to court, he went straight back to the mansion.

Except for the first day of going to court, Su Bian never set foot in Taiqing's courtyard.

He didn't care about things in the court, and when he was in the court, he would nest in the mansion and tidy up the corners of the mansion together with Bi Zhu.

The mansion that Long Jingying gave as a gift was really too big, and Bizhu alone couldn't clean it up. Su Bian had nothing to do, so he went to help together.

But who knows who spread the news that Su Bian and Xuanyue had a good relationship, during these few days when Su Bian and Bi Zhu were cleaning the sanitation of the mansion, the number of people who came to the mansion to give gifts not only did not decrease, but

And more and more.

Naturally, Su Bian was still the same as before, and Bi Zhu sent them all away without seeing any of them.

Whether it is a gift or an invitation to a banquet, all refuse.

In the blink of an eye, half a month has passed.

Although the money in his hands is tight now, it has to be mentioned that life in the capital is indeed much more leisurely than in Ningxiang.

No need to worry about taxes, no conscription, no filing.Every day, I just go to court, stand and listen for a while, and then I will be fine.

In the words of the 21st century, this is simply the retirement life that people dream of.

Su Bian lived a leisurely life with a breeze in his sleeves and didn't care about anything, so other people couldn't stand it anymore.

Quarter House.

Ji Yixiao's office.

Xue Jiaping sat in the lobby, and said: "I thought that this Lord Jiuqing who was able to silence Lord Kong, the governor of Shuntian Prefecture, must have two brushes. Unexpectedly, it is just

The second one is just an adult. "

Ji Yixiao raised his hand and took a sip of tea with a cold expression.

Xue Jiaping said: "Look, lower officials, if this is the case, it's better to replace it with someone in charge."

Ji Yixiao's face remained unchanged, and he said, "No need."

Xue Jiaping frowned, puzzled and said, "Why did the Taiwei make such a statement?"

Ji Yixiao replied: "Don't worry about it, it will save me a lot of trouble."

As long as Su Bian doesn't care, he will have the final say on all affairs in the court.

Ji Yixiao originally thought that Su Bian tricked Emperor Jin to get the position of Jiuqing, but he didn't expect it to be so.

After half a month of observation, Ji Yixiao discovered that Su Bian really had no interest in Jiuqing.

That being the case, Ji Yixiao felt relieved.

Xiangfu.

Long Jingying's place.

Long Jingying stood outside the study, quietly watching the scene in the courtyard.

His eyes were calm, and his pupils were as cold as unfathomable cold pools.Long hair like a waterfall slipped from his shoulders, making his already cold figure even more lonely.

Yueyao standing behind him saw that the sky outside the window was gradually getting dark, so she said: "My lord, it's getting cold, let's go inside."

Long Jingying seemed to have never heard of it.

After a while, Long Jingying suddenly asked unexpectedly: "What happened to that Lord Jiuqing?"

Yue Yao replied obediently: "The newly appointed Lord Jiuqing, except for going to court, stays in the mansion all day long, does not leave the gate, does not enter the second gate."

Looking at the scene in the courtyard, Long Jingying said without turning her head: "Really."

Taiqing Academy.

Qiu Qingxi.

"I thought that the newly appointed Master Jiuqing would be different from the previous Lord Jiuqing, but it seems that there is no difference."

"Let's not talk about it, I'm rather curious, how did a mere seventh-rank county magistrate make the emperor like him, and then promote him to Jiuqing?"

"So you are ignorant, right? Didn't you hear that the newly appointed Lord Jiuqing has a good relationship with Lord Guowei?"

"Huh? You actually made friends with Lord Lieutenant?"

"The last time Lord Jiuqing was imprisoned in the punishment room, it was Lord Guowei who came to rescue him..."

Several people gathered together to listen to the gossip with great interest. Before the man could finish speaking, a cool voice sounded from behind the three of them.

"You came to the Taiqing Court just to get together and gossip?"

Surprised, they hurriedly raised their heads to look in the direction of the voice.After seeing Fang Huating, he couldn't help being shocked, and said: "Master Fang!"

Fang Huating scolded with a cold face: "What are you still standing here for! Go back to your seat!"

Several people hurriedly answered yes, and quickly dispersed.

Before Fang Huating finished speaking, Qiu Qingxi's voice came from not far away.

Qiu Qingxi walked over slowly, and said, "Master Fang, what are you getting angry about?"

Fang Huating cupped his hands and said respectfully: "I'm just teaching a few lazy translators."

Qiu Qing breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Really."

Qiu Qingxi was about to walk past Fang Huating, Fang Huating hesitated, and said: "In the past few days, there have always been some mischievous translators in the palace secretly gossiping about Lord Jiuqing..."

Because it was the admiral Chang Huai who was temporarily in charge of Jiuqing, and because of his status as admiral, even if Chang Huai didn't appear in the Taiqing courtyard once a month, no one would dare to say a word of gossip.

But Su Bian was different. His previous identity was just a county magistrate, not to mention, and the files of some injustice cases tried by 'him' before were still kept in the Taiqing Court.

It's no wonder some people in Taiqing's courtyard didn't look down on him.

But Fang Huating is upright by nature. To him, Jiuqing is Jiuqing. No matter how many things he has committed before and how bad his status is, he is still the Lord Jiuqing who will bow his knees when he sees him.

Fang Huating hesitated to speak, but only listened to Qiu Qingxi's complexion and said: "Could it be wrong?"

It was the first time I saw Fang Huating who showed Qiu Qingxi's disgust towards someone so unabashedly, and said, "Master Shaoqing, you..."

Qiu Qingxi ignored him, sneered, and left.

——Oh, the captain of the country.

Mu House.

Mu Hong is far away.

Since the banquet with Su Bian half a month ago, Mu Hongyuan has never been able to see Su Bian again.

Whether it was a gift or a banquet, everything was rejected.

Mu Hongyuan couldn't figure out Su Bian's plan, so he couldn't help feeling anxious and tormented.

In terms of flattery, if the other party likes it, then it is a happy event.If you miss...

Good point, doesn't help.Worse, it's a funeral.

If he not only failed to please Mr. Jiuqing, but aroused the other party's resentment, so he paid attention to every move of the Mu family, the loss outweighed the gain.

Mu Hongyuan was so restless that he couldn't bear it. He kept turning around the room in a hurry. After turning around and around, he finally couldn't help it, and said, "Call the young master here."

The servants waiting at the side replied: "Yes."
