Sheng Gong Dance

After Qing Xiao brought Concubine Wan into the house, the two sat opposite each other.Qing Xiao, who was still smiling, asked solemnly, "I've also heard the rumors in the palace, and sent people to implement them. Who is the person in the West Tower?"

In previous years, I took Xilou back to my home.Even though Qing Xiao's attitude towards Xilou was indifferent, it was not to the point of blatantly rejecting the door.Concubine Wan guessed that he dismissed the West Building because he had something to discuss with her.

After concentrating her thoughts, Concubine Wan slowly said, "Father is so confused. Of course Xilou is your daughter's son, your grandson." The story of Xilou is too bizarre to say the least.If I hadn't been by his side at that time, I would never have believed that there was such a thing as moving the soul.But the fact is that it cannot be questioned.

Qing Xiao frowned, and looked at Concubine Wan seriously.Concubine Wan still calmed down, picked up the tea bowl with her jade hand, brought it to her mouth, and took a sip slowly.Seeing her so calm, Qing Xiao couldn't help asking, "If my daughter has any difficulties? You might as well tell my father directly."

Putting down the teacup, Concubine Wan frowned slightly, and sighed helplessly, "Father also knows. After the new year is over, the emperor will be fifteen. This year will be different from previous years. If you fight alone, you will inevitably suffer Besieged on all sides."

Qing Xiao didn't expect Concubine Wan to help Xilou speak.I can be sure that this 'Xilou' is definitely not my grandson.I don't believe any wise words.It was appalling for his stupidity.Now it has changed a lot, is it a blessing or a curse?

Thinking about it, since Concubine Wan has no objection to the West Building, she might as well go to meet the West Building.See what kind of character he is.

Thinking of this, half of the boulder in her heart seemed to have fallen, and Qing Xiao put on the enthusiastic smile just now, "Wan'er is probably tired after walking all the way. I think it's better to go back to the house and rest for a while."

Concubine Wan didn't understand her father's intentions, but she still smiled gratefully for his thoughtfulness, nodded slightly, and stood up with Qingxiao, but she couldn't help but added, "Father, the emperor will not let you down." ..."

Before she could finish speaking, Qing Xiao interrupted, "Father has his own plans. Daughter is more worried. Since it is the grandson of the father, how can the father make things difficult for him?"

Concubine Wan nodded, that was the only way to go.After all, whether he can win his father's consent or not depends on Xilou's performance.

Watching Concubine Wan leave, Qing Xiao summoned an attendant and asked, "Where did Qi Nuo take the Fourth Highness?"

"Return to the general. Lord Qi and His Royal Highness are under the gazebo over there." The attendant pointed in the direction.Qing Xiao looked in the direction of the finger, and sure enough, she saw the two people not far away.

Following the location of those two people, Qing Xiao walked slowly with steady steps. As soon as she approached them, she heard Xilou ask, "What is your relationship with my so-called grandfather? Or should you say Who will go up and who will go down?"

With a pause, Qingxiao bypassed an obstacle, walked slowly into the gazebo, sat down beside Qinuo, and stretched out her hand to embrace Qinuo.Qi Nuo was even more embarrassed, his fair and handsome face turned red.

Xilou looked interesting, glanced at Qing Xiao who looked at him thoughtfully, and kindly said, "Grandpa, he has a very thin skin." The subtext said that Qing Xiao was too thick-skinned.

I didn't expect that I hadn't had time to embarrass him.Instead, he took revenge on himself for rejecting him just now.Qing Xiao suddenly laughed out loud, and said in a good mood, "It seems that my grandson is really wise and stupid, but it's my grandfather who misjudged you before."

Xilou just smiled and said nothing.How did I know what happened in the past, why bother to talk too much?I don't know anything about Concubine Wan's conversation with him.As far as the current situation is concerned, we have to adapt to the situation.But since he has admitted that he is his grandson, there is still a chance of winning.

Seeing that Xilou did not respond, Qing Xiao asked again complacently, "I wonder what plans my grandson has for the next year?"

"Planning..." Xilou prolonged his voice on purpose, and smiled weakly, "Thinking about this kind of thing is for those who are prepared. For those who are fighting alone..." At this point, Xilou also No more talking, the gaze neither looked at Qing Xiao nor Qian Nuo, but drifted towards the unknown in the distance.

Qi Nuo and Qing Xiao naturally knew what Xilou was talking about.Looking at each other, Qing Xiao thoughtfully said, "Although I seldom go to the court, I still know the general situation in the court. Besides, I am also aware of the movements of all parties. I understand a little bit."

Speaking of this, Qing Xiao paused, and looked at the west building with deep meaning.Looking back at Xilou, pale fingers slowly circled the teacup, and said in a light and clear voice, "Ming people don't speak dark words in front of you. I know that grandpa is very thoughtful, and I'm afraid he has already made arrangements. Why don't we talk about the conditions now?" ?”

Looking at those smiling eyes, Qing Xiao immediately parted her smile, thought for a while, and said loudly, "My condition is very simple. As long as my good grandson takes good care of my daughter."

"So..." Xilou smiled, raised his eyes and looked at him, his red lips slowly opened, "Then what benefits can I gain? Why don't you just talk to Grandpa and Xilou directly?"

"Is it good?" Qing Xiao took out two things from her bosom, and presented them to Xilou respectively.One is a small and transparent tiger made of white jade, and the other is a sleek token made of black jade.

"As long as you can protect Wan'er well. You can choose one of these two things. But I personally think this is more useful to you." Qing Xiao pointed at the white tiger and said.

Xilou glanced at the two things lightly, raised his head and looked directly at Qingxiao, his eyes exchanged, a gleam of light flashed across his eyes, and a joking and serious voice came out of Xilou's mouth, "What if I want both?"

Qi Nuo was startled, and raised his eyes to look towards the west building.Xilou was still calm and relaxed.Qing Xiao's eyes sank, and an inexplicable light flashed through his eyes.The situation went downhill suddenly, like the calm before the storm.The atmosphere was suffocating.But the West Building still sips tea and enjoys the scenery slowly.It seems that everything has nothing to do with him, he is just an outsider.

Qing Xiao laughed suddenly, and asked somewhat mockingly, "What qualifications do you have to bargain with me?" Neither the tone nor the words were kind.But Xilou didn't care.

"The general was born in the army and made a great success for the late emperor. But he became so successful that he had to send his daughter to the palace as a restraint." Qing Xiao and Qi Nuo were puzzled, not knowing why Xi Lou suddenly said these words .

Xilou continued, "I'm really unwilling to think about it. Fortunately, half of the military power is still in my hands. But even so, I know in my heart that this military power will be taken back sooner or later. Generally, you don’t have to go to court and you are not afraid of being blamed.” At this point, Xilou looked at the white jade tiger badge with a smile.

"This tiger badge is also a hot potato. If I had to choose between the two, I would rather choose this black jade token. It will be useful for traveling in the rivers and lakes in the future." Qing Xiao was startled, and the expression of admiration was beyond words.

"Besides, the general fought with the late emperor in the early years, so I'm afraid he's used to it. Now, he's been bound in the general's mansion for more than ten years. No matter how great his patience is, he's probably exhausted. It's better to be with you* *Wouldn't it be more fun to join hands with Tianya? So this token is also a burden to Grandpa." At this point, it's almost the same.The west building stopped in time.

The admiration in Qingxiao's eyes was even more endless. She smiled loudly and applauded, "No wonder my daughter protects you so much. It really is worth it, it's worth it." At this point, Qingxiao turned to sigh, as if touching a wound "I really want to join forces with Nuo, but it's a pity..." The two looked at each other.Kinuo smiled understandingly.

"It's a pity that I can't worry about Concubine Wan, and I don't know how to deal with this Tiger Ball?" Xilou took the chatterbox and asked himself and answered, "If Grandpa can rest assured, I can not only protect Concubine Wan's safety, but also ensure that she will get married in the end. As for the tiger label, just give it to me."

Looking at the firm and confident eyes of the young man in front of him, he was convincing for no reason.Qing Xiao also believed in her daughter's vision.However, he still couldn't help asking, "I heard from Wan'er that you have no intention of missing the court. Then what are your plans?"

"Happy rivers and lakes, travel around the beautiful mountains and rivers in the world, and taste all the delicious food and wine in the world." When he said this, the young Bai Yu's face was shining brightly, and the smile in his eyes even reached the bottom of his heart.As if everything was a foregone conclusion, as if his words were inevitable.

But Qing Xiao understands that this person really has such ability.Stretching out her hands and solemnly putting the two things in front of her into Xilou's hands, Qing Xiao said solemnly again, "I hope you will do what you say."

"One word from a gentleman, four horses are hard to follow." Xilou stood up and saluted respectfully, "Grandpa is such a great gift, Xilou thank you here."

"It's easy to say." Qing Xiao stood up, and the two clapped hands.The deal was done.Many years later, whenever Qing Xiao thinks about this deal, she feels a bit lost, but she doesn't regret it.

Saying goodbye to Qing Xiao and Qi Nuo, Xilou left the gazebo, and walked slowly towards her own room under the guidance of her servants.It was only at this time that I felt a little cold on my body, which was due to lack of internal strength.It seems that in the next year, I will work hard.

When he opened the door and entered, he saw the slender figure standing against the window.Hearing the sound of the door opening, Concubine Wan turned her eyes and smiled with relief, the worry in her eyes was self-evident.Xilou smiled gratefully, and walked slowly to Concubine Wan's side.

"Emperor, what's dad's reaction?" Concubine Wan couldn't help asking before Xilou approached.

It was rare to see a young daughter like Concubine Wan being anxious, Xilou couldn't help but smile.Concubine Wan also knew that she had lost her composure, so she couldn't help laughing too.

"Grandpa has already agreed. Mother and concubine don't worry about my son anymore. Everything is fine with my son."

"Just agree. I wanted to go there with dad. But dad said he wanted to talk to you alone, so I'll come here and wait for you."

"En. I understand. I'm not a child anymore. Concubine Mu, there are some things that I can take care of." Concubine Wan raised her head and fixedly looked at the boy in front of her.From the first time I saw him, he didn't look like a child.Even if you occasionally show your child's heart in front of yourself.Is it because I insist on treating him as a child, or is it because I always treat him as the shadow of the emperor and keep deceiving myself and others?

Thinking of this, Concubine Wan was at a loss for a moment, and then smiled with relief, "Well, my emperor has grown up. Concubine Mother is very comforting."

Xilou looked at Concubine Wan and said softly, "Concubine Mu, I will protect you well. This is my promise to my grandfather, and it will also be a promise to Concubine Mu."

"En." Concubine Wan nodded, and stretched out her arms to hug the west building.Since when did the boy in front of him already surpass himself?

"Mother and concubine, it's getting late. Why don't I take you back to your room to rest?"

"No need. The concubine mother can go back by herself. The emperor should go to bed earlier." Letting go of the west building, Concubine Wan smiled faintly, walked out of the house, and helped the west building close the door.

Xilou watched Concubine Wan leave, feeling tired even after this day, so she walked directly towards the bed.
