I wish for a long time

Qi Shaoan's heart trembled, and his brows frowned slightly.

She had long guessed that the silly princess who had been talked about in the market was not really stupid, but a disguise.

To be precise, he tried his best to protect himself under the control of King Mu and Concubine Zheng.

This can be seen from the fact that she returned to her original appearance shortly after King Mu fell and Concubine Zheng hanged herself.

Is it just to save lives?

There was an answer faintly in Qi Shao'an's mind, ready to come out.

Apart from the two princesses who have not reached Ji, the only one left in the palace who is still waiting in the boudoir is the eighth princess who has just "woke up".

If it wasn't for the fierce quarrel of the Tal tribe some time ago, which pushed the eighth princess to the forefront, I am afraid people would have forgotten that the princess was past the marriageable age.

Qi Shaoan lowered her eyes slightly, feeling a little uneasy in her heart.

If Chu Sheng persisted with Ajiu, she would not be her opponent in terms of status and status.

"Worried about me taking him away?"

At some point, Chu Sheng had already turned his head, looking at Qi Shao'an with soft light in his eyes, but in Qi Shao'an's eyes, there was always a hint of aggression.

It was only then that Qi Shao'an realized that she was dazed again, she shifted her eyes in panic, and picked up the teacup discreetly.

Chu Sheng bent his lips and smiled faintly, but there was a trace of bitterness in that smile, "His heart is not with me, and it is useless for me to snatch it away."

She paused, and said softly:

"So, I wish you happiness."

The tea slipped down her throat and was almost spit out by Qi Shaoan again. She didn't react for a while, thinking that she had heard it wrong.

On the opposite side, Chu Sheng had turned his head away, and the sunlight missed by the shade of the forest fell on her brows, lighting up the water in her eyes.

For a moment, Qi Shao'an felt a little distressed for the woman in front of him.

She had struggled to survive in the palace at a young age, but now, because of the light in her heart, she did not hesitate to put herself in danger time and time again. When it comes to love, she is no less than herself.

But emotional matters are just so unreasonable.

She sighed softly from the bottom of her heart.

It's easy to pick up, but to put it down, how can you give up with just a sentence or a half.

The two were relatively speechless, but at this moment, Xiao Yu suddenly rushed in.

"Miss, go to the front hall and have a look, there is a commotion in front."

……

lobby.

Xue Yuning stood on the steps, frowning and staring at the elegant and luxurious women in front of him, while Song Chuxun leaned casually on the column, his eyes were full of indifference and alienation.

"Second Miss Xie, please be careful with your words."

Xue Yuning looked down at the woman in front of her from a high position, her eyes were already filled with anger.

"I pay attention to my words? She is just a prostitute, but at the birthday banquet of the Hou's mansion, where did she put me, Shao... Madam of the Hou's mansion?"

Xie Qiyao raised her head not to be outdone, but at this time a woman beside her chimed in and said, "Yes, the Marquis and Madam haven't spoken yet, she's just a concubine, when will it be her turn to act?"

Xue Yuning clenched her fists, she squinted her eyes, and said coldly: "Stop spitting blood here, Chu Xun and Lord Hou have been good friends for many years, they are innocent, you better keep your mouths clean."

Xie Qiyao was like a cockfighting cock, she did not back down at all: "Bloody spitting? It has already been spread in the public, Hou Ye was so angry that he became a beauty, and he was willing to be manipulated by others, and brought an oiran into the mansion. From then on, he will be a golden house, and he will be extremely honored and favored."

Song Chuxun listened at the side, and suddenly snorted, "It turns out that Lord Hou is so affectionate to me, I have been taught and taught."

Xie Qiyao was confused by her, she frowned and said: "Don't you know how Master Hou treats you? You are really a heartless woman."

Song Chuxun raised his eyebrows, huh?

"I've also heard that Lord Hou did not hesitate to hide it for King Mu because of her."

"Yes, yes, I heard that Lord Hou and His Majesty are now having a rift, and it turns out it's all because of this woman."

"It's hard to say, you see there are carriages in the palace outside the gate today, but it's not sure."

In the courtyard, the wives and ladies of each family whispered to each other and whispered with each other while holding the round fan. Song Chuxun gradually frowned and stood up straight.

Didn't expect it to have spread like this.

If this continues, then Ye Jiuke will become the scum of these talkers.

"What's so noisy?"

A cold voice came from one side of the corridor, indifferently carrying some irresistible momentum.

Song Chuxun turned his head and saw Qi Shao'an walking towards her in an autumn yellow skirt, with a different solemnity on his face.

Song Chuxun looked at the scene, shrugged at her, and leaned against the pillar again.

Now that the Lord is here, there is no need for her to worry about it.

"Sister, you are here."

When Xie Qiyao saw the person coming, she took two steps forward with her skirt in her hand, and took Qi Shao'an's arm, "Sister, if you don't come again, you will be bullied, I'm not worth it for you."

As she said that, she stomped her feet again, "Brother Lin is the same. He is not satisfied with having a sister, and he provokes others outside. Today, he still let outsiders take charge of the affairs. This has not just increased his prestige."

Qi Shao'an glanced at her helplessly, and sighed softly from the bottom of his heart.

This girl has a pure heart, and when she was provoked by others, she wanted to fight for her own injustice, and she didn't know what happened today, but she was so indiscriminate and lost her sense of propriety.

"Yao'er, you have wrongly blamed your brother-in-law Lin for this matter. My husband and I are friends with Chu Xun. This time is not as bad as the rumors in the market. Don't worry about it."

Qi Shao'an's tone was slow and clear, even though he was speaking to Xie Qiyao on the face, his voice was enough for all the women in the courtyard to hear clearly.

Xie Qiyao glanced at Qi Shao'an, then looked at Song Chuxun behind him with a plain face, and said angrily: "Sister, did brother-in-law Lin tell you to say that? Do you know what the rumors in the capital are like? Sister, do you still think so?" cover for him."

Qi Shao'an frowned: "Yao'er, stop messing around."

When she came just now, she also heard a sentence or a sentence of these noble ladies' words, and just a few words were enough to make her terrified.

If it continues like this and spreads to the ears of the Holy One, I'm afraid it won't be as good as Ajiu's.

"Nowadays there are quite a few criticisms of my Marquis's Mansion, but my husband is desperate to protect the Holy One and fulfill his duty for the court. My husband has never said much, but I just ask Kang Sheng to unite as one, to bring benefits to the common people, and to seek peace for the Holy One." .”

As he spoke, Qi Shaoan stepped forward lightly, looking around at the people gathered in twos and threes in the courtyard, "Those who come to my residence today must be those who are at the same heart with the Holy Majesty and the husband. Waiting for everyone, I hope that you will no longer criticize the affairs of the Marquis Mansion in the future."

After saying those words, no matter Xie Qiyao at the side or the wives and ladies in the courtyard, they all fell silent and looked at each other, but no one made a sound.

Standing at the end of the corridor in the distance, Chu Sheng, who did not show up rashly, looked at the autumn yellow figure in front of the hall, which shone even brighter under the sunlight.

She smiled down.

At this moment, she finally understood why this woman whose appearance and temperament were comparable to hers alone attracted all the attention of that man.

Qingliang is not dull, docile but not weak, and there is even a faint publicity in the plainness.

After all, she is a strange woman.

Seeing that everyone was quiet, Qi Shaoan held Song Chuxun's wrist sideways and pulled her to her side.

"Miss Chuxun is a close friend of my husband and I. The deep friendship is no different from that of relatives. My husband treats her like a brother and sister. I hope you don't hurt your own family."

Song Chuxun frowned, she looked at Qi Shao'an, but seeing the imposing woman just now winked at her playfully.

Song Chuxun turned his head and sighed.

Brothers and sisters are brothers and sisters.

Xie Qiyao was a little unbelievable, as if her five senses had been crushed by someone, she struggled and said, "Sister, are you..."

"Crack, snap, snap."

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a slow clap of applause.

Everyone followed the prestige, and saw a man in dark blue brocade robe standing at the entrance of the hall, with a deep smile on his face, looking this way.

When Xie Qiyao saw it, she pouted her lips and muttered in a low voice: "A heartless man."

The person who came was Ye Jiu who had been happily discussed by people just now.

Ye Jiu walked through the corridor and came to Qi Shao'an's side, and said in a low voice:

"Awesome."

Qi Shaoan pursed her lips uncomfortably, and stared at her slightly.

Ye Jiu smiled but said nothing, and then said to the people in the courtyard: "My wife is right, I have no objection."

Everyone: "...?"

Qi Shao'an's face turned red when she heard this, the uproar just now didn't frighten her, but it was this man's words that made her heart thump.

"Pay attention to some occasions." She reproached.

Ye Jiu took her hand and blinked quickly: "It's all up to you."

It wasn't loud, but it was loud enough for the people in the yard to hear.

Everyone: I haven't eaten yet, but I'm full.

Xie Qiyao turned her head: "Hmph, pretending..."

"Yaoer."

Suddenly a soft female voice sounded, with a hint of reprimand, and everyone turned their heads.

I saw Lou Qingyan, the daughter of Prime Minister Lou, walking slowly, her elegant and elegant clothes set off her extraordinary temperament.

"Sister Yan." Xie Qiyao looked at Lou Qingyan aggrievedly.

Lou Qingyan bowed to everyone first, then frowned slightly and looked at Xie Qiyao, "Yao'er, you still haven't apologized to this girl."

Xie Qiyao was taken aback when she heard this, and said somewhat dissatisfied: "It's because she has no respect..."

"Yao'er," Lou Qingyan interrupted her again, "You child is stubborn, just now Sister Ye has made it so clear, you still haven't repented."

Xie Qiyao reluctantly shut up.

Lou Qingyan said in a low voice: "Your elder sister Ye has already saved face for you, so maybe she has to reprimand you in front of others to make you satisfied."

Xie Qiyao raised her head when she heard the words, and looked at Qi Shao'an in front of her. After taking a closer look, she finally saw the displeasure in her eyes.

She twirled her fingers, looked at the appearance of the two sisters in front of her who had been "outside" all the time, lowered her head, and turned towards Song Chu: "It was Yaoer who was reckless and spoke out, hurting this sister , I also hope that my sister will forgive me."

Xue Yuning snorted softly beside her, and didn't look away from her.

Song Chuxun helplessly looked at the sulking person beside him, and coughed lightly, "Get up, don't let people be used as guns next time."

Xie Qiyao blinked blankly, "Huh?"

Lou Qingyan also saw the deep meaning, turned her head to look at Qi Shaoan, Qi Shaoan shook her head lightly, expressing that she didn't understand what was going on.

For a moment, except for Xie Qiyao who was confused, the expressions of the rest of them were slightly gloomy.

"Okay, don't think about it for now, the banquet is about to start, let's go to the Jishui Pavilion first."

Ye Jiu spoke at the right time, motioning everyone to go to the backyard first.

"what?"

"What's wrong, Shaoer."

Seeing that everyone had left and Qi Shaoan was still looking around in the corridor, Ye Jiu asked aloud.

Qi Shaoan showed suspicion, "The eighth princess was still there just now, why is there no one there?"

Ye Jiu looked along and found that there was no one there, "Maybe he got lost, Shao'er, you go first, I'll look for it."

Qi Shaoan nodded, "Okay."

……

Here, when Ye Jiu appeared, Chu Sheng took advantage of the chaos and walked away.

The quiet path meanders all the way to the backyard, passing Ziru Pavilion, the back wall of Zhijie Hall, and General Lin's study.

Every wall, wall and forest scene here has been drawn countless times in her heart, and she is very familiar with the coin-shaped pebbles under her feet.

She imagined that one day she would marry here, walk on this quiet path every day, guarding that true love.

Tong Yan Wuji.

She couldn't help but sneer.

When she heard this word from him that day, her heart seemed to be torn apart with bare hands. She had dreamed for more than ten years, and when she came to him, she was naughty and childish when she was a child.

Chu Sheng walked slowly, but the road was so long, and as he walked, he would always reach the end.

She looked at Ziru Garden not far away, and it seemed that the fragrant pastry smell wafted through her breath, which was the smell in her memory.

She shook her head, and took another deep breath, only the faint moisture of the bamboo forest remained.

Chu Sheng held the corner of his mouth and smiled, turned around and was about to leave, but saw a lavender figure coming out of the gate of the courtyard.

Chu Sheng looked at the woman's face and frowned slightly.

"Why did the princess come here?"

A warm voice sounded from behind, Chu Sheng was startled, turned around, and saw Ye Jiu standing behind him.

Chu Sheng took care of his emotions and smiled back, "Let's go for nothing."

Ye Jiu nodded, "The banquet is about to start, the princess will follow me."

Chu Sheng responded, and followed Ye Jiu, walking side by side.

Both of them didn't speak, Chu Sheng thought for a while, and said softly:

"Brother Huang actually didn't suspect you, but he just couldn't let go of his face. If the young master gave him a step, it would save the government and the public from speculating wildly."

Ye Jiu understood that Chu Sheng must have listened to the discussion of those people just now, she thought for a moment, and replied: "Yes, I see."

Seeing her calm face, Chu Sheng said hesitantly: "Young Master is upright, but there are many people who maliciously framed her. You'd better be careful in everything."

Ye Jiu smiled, "If Your Majesty can't trust me, then I don't want to be up and down in this officialdom."

Chu Sheng's heart tightened, "You want to go?"

Ye Jiu glanced at her, sighed slightly, "It's hard to tell."

Chu Sheng frowned slightly when she heard the words. She pinched her cuffs and didn't know what to say for a while.

"By the way, what did the princess look at just now?"

Chu Sheng's thoughts turned, she raised her head and glanced at the distance, there was no one there.She tilted her head and asked: "Is there still contact between the Hou's mansion and the Xian Wang's mansion?"

Ye Jiu didn't understand, so, "How do you say that?"

"I just saw Concubine Xian coming out of the concubine's courtyard."

Ye Jiu heard the words clearly, "Oh, Princess Xian's mother and my mother are cousins, so she is still my sister from far away."

She said with a sigh, "Last time, there was a lot of trouble about the Xian Wang, and the Xian Wang Concubine also suffered a lot, so my mother took care of her more."

Chu Sheng thought for a while, then pursed his lips and said: "The sacrifice made by the young master, the emperor is not a righteous person, he will remember it."

Ye Jiu chuckled, his face was mostly indifferent, "I hope so."
