Xiao Zhi and Lord Qin

In front of the window of the imperial study room, Xiao Zhi was holding a letter in his hand and his whole body was trembling.

The red plums outside the window are even more bright red after being soaked in the cold winter wind and snow, but the color is far less than the burning eyes in Xiaozhi's eyes at this time.

The news came from the guards: Mr. Qin is back.

But the news is always faster, Mr. Qin is still on the way.

Xiao Zhi clenched the letter paper in his palm, unable to stop the ecstasy and excitement in his heart.

He felt that it was okay to be late, as long as Master Qin came back, he was willing to wait as long as he wanted.

After he calmed down a bit, he couldn't wait to wake up Concubine Hui, who was dozing by the smoker, and discussed with her the layout of the palace for the New Year, after thinking about it, he ordered someone to decorate the Qin mansion .

Concubine Hui left after waiting for everyone, and asked curiously: "Are you an old acquaintance with Mr. Qin?"

Xiao Zhi dodged his eyes and replied vaguely: "It's just that I have admired Master Qin's name for a long time."

After hearing this, Concubine Hui covered her face with her sleeve and yawned lazily like a cat: "Lord Qin is a good official."

When she put down her sleeves, she already had a sly smile on her face: "Many noble ladies in the capital fall in love with Mrs. Qin, but it's a pity that they were obstructed by the family and failed to achieve a good relationship. You have to work hard!"

At this time, Concubine Hui guessed that Xiao Zhi should be the lady of which household in the capital.

Xiao Zhi frowned, and was about to refute why those dignitaries obstructed him, but stopped in time.He couldn't help but think in his heart, among those young ladies who adore Master Qin, are there any who are in love with Master Qin?

Master Qin came back this time, will it be for him?Or... for the emperor?

Concubine Hui saw that the little one didn't speak, so she comforted her again: "My brother said, it's up to people."

Xiao Zhi raised his head, looked at her and said cautiously: "Then...does Mr. Qin have a girl he likes?"

Concubine Hui thought about it carefully, and women are always born with a gossip, so she quickly replied with a mysterious face: "Probably not. In fact, many ladies have secretly sent Master Qin letter, but Master Qin never replied to a single one. Especially the youngest daughter of Shangshu Hubu, who is an old daughter, the young lady has icy muscles and bones, and she is unparalleled in talent and appearance. The whole family regards her as the apple of their eye. , Unlimited love. The emperor mentioned it several times, but was rejected by the Minister of the Household with death, but I didn't expect that young lady to have a soft spot for Mr. Qin. When she went to the Yuan Lantern Festival a few years ago, she was so bold He secretly ran to find Mr. Qin, guess what? Mr. Qin not only sent him back immediately, but also told the young lady about the five classics and four books of morality and etiquette in front of everyone at the Household Minister's house for more than an hour. Because of the lack of face, the lady cried on the spot, and it was rumored that her eyes were swollen and she was locked up in the room for several days and could not see anyone. Since then, no lady has dared to face the difficulties. So...you still... oh, With your current appearance, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult."

After hearing this, Xiao Zhi felt complicated, both happy and worried.

However, as long as he can stay by Master Qin's side, he is already content.

Thinking of this, he felt a little more relaxed for a while, and poured a cup of tea for Concubine Hui with a smile, and thoughtfully said: "Be thirsty, drink some tea."

Concubine Hui didn't expect that Xiao Zhi didn't care. She took the cup blankly, wondering if he really just admired Master Qin's name for a long time?
