As the carriage approached, as expected, the eldest princess opened the door and came out.

The little girl's pure eyes became bright again.

The corners of Kangping County's master's lips curled up, and she walked over first, "His Highness is well, you haven't come to the household department for a long time, why are you free today?"

Qin Tangxi came from the palace and was supposed to arrive early, but the emperor delayed her time by pulling her to say 'kind' words for a while.

"Because I haven't come for many days, I should come here today. It's not time to go down to the yamen. Where is the county master going?"

After leaving early and being caught right away, Ming Shu curled her lips and resolutely cleared herself up: "The county lord said to take me to the restaurant."

Take her there, she didn't ask for it.

Kang Ping was speechless, "It seems that you are not stupid. You are not afraid of your boss wearing small shoes for you to please your boss's boss?"

Not to be outdone, Ming Shu said, "Aren't you afraid that your boss will wear small shoes for you?"

"Smart teeth." Kang Ping was not flat, but still walked over to the prepared carriage, "Your Highness, I am going to have a drink, do you want to go with me?"

While speaking, Shang Shu quickly approached, and bowed to the Eldest Princess in salute: "Your Highness is coming, everything is ready."

"Check first and then eat wine. In addition, bring Mr. Chen here." Qin Tangxi's tone was solemn and could not be refuted. Shang Shu did not dare to disobey, and his eyes signaled Kang Ping to go back quickly.

Mingshu frantically followed the eldest princess back, unable to help herself, so Kang Ping had no choice but to turn back.

Chen Dan was also going to go down to the restaurant to have a drink. He made an appointment with a group of friends, and before he stepped over the threshold, he saw a large group of people walking in from the outside. When he saw the leading woman, his heart skipped a beat. He turned decisively and sat back in his seat.

There are a lot of accounts in the household department, and the eldest princess does not check the accounts, but simply checks, and asks about any emergencies.

The matter of inquiry had nothing to do with Mingshu, so she slowly walked around with the eldest princess, but Kangping county magistrate cheered up.

When the eldest princess asks, she will answer, which shows that she has a plan.

The Ministry of Households looked at it for a while, and it was already past noon, and everyone was hungry. Kang Ping was going to a restaurant to have a drink, and the eldest princess said generously: "Today I will be the host alone, and the county lord arranges it."

Kang Ping was obviously a little surprised, "Is the iron cock plucked?"

Ming Shu quietly tugged at her cuff: "Is the eldest princess mean?"

"I'm not stingy with you, but I'm not stingy with me." Kang Ping sneered.

Mingshu didn't ask any more questions, and everyone started to go to the restaurant.

When eating after noon, there were not many people in the restaurant. After entering the restaurant, a group of people asked for a private room, and everyone enjoyed themselves happily.

Seeing that his new colleague was lonely and weak, Chen Dan kindly dragged him to the place farthest from the eldest princess.

It's easy to provoke anyone, except the eldest princess.

Ming Shu was staggered by him, stepped on his heels and walked to the last table. When she sat down, she realized that her colleagues were all young men.

Looking around, they were all familiar faces, as if they were recommended by the nobles.

Chen Dan has the same position as her, they are both in the same department, and he specially introduced her colleagues, "This is the young son of Jin Beihou, two years older than you, this is the son of the princess's family..."

After talking in a circle, Mingshu has a general understanding. It turns out that there is also a small circle of honorable families in the household department.

Could it be that His Highness let her get acquainted with these people?

It was lively here, and the princess's place seemed extremely deserted. The Minister of the Household Department searched around but couldn't find Mingyan, so he used his eyes to look for the servant, and finally saw Chen Dan talking with others in full swing.

This person is familiar with everyone.

Kang Ping, who was supposed to be sitting at this table, felt that it was too deserted, so he also walked over with his wine glass in his hand. The little girl was already delicate and charming, but sitting at Chen Dan's place made her lips red and her teeth white.

After clicking twice, she brushed Chen Dan away and sat beside the little girl, "What are you talking about?"

"I didn't say anything, I just told some interesting things." Chen Dan sneered, glanced at the county lord, and said quietly: "Why didn't you invite us to drink when you were promoted? The restaurant will not work, but the house will do."

"Good idea..."

Suddenly, Qingyue's voice came over, everyone's wine glasses trembled, and they all stood up, especially Chen Dan, whose smile was uglier than crying.

Ming Shu knew how to be interesting, the seats were all full, so she hurriedly got up to make room for His Highness.

Qin Tangxi sat down naturally, and did not forget to tell her: "Find a seat."

Looking around in the private room, only the original seat of the eldest princess was vacant. Mingshu hesitated for a while, then walked over.

Qin Tangxi smiled, and Kang Ping followed suit: "You guys said, I'm going back."

"It's okay, just ask a few words, is there anything wrong with the matter that Mr. Chen took over recently?" The eldest princess asked casually.

There are many things in Chen Dan's hands, and he only said that there are several things recently. After Chen Dan was asked such a question, the wine in his hand suddenly became stale, "I am still investigating, and there is no problem yet."

"Okay, let me ask you alone, if something is absolutely wrong, remember to tell me in time." Qin Tangxi stood up and left.

Chen Dan and the others were sweating on their backs, and the eldest princess really did whatever she wanted with her questions. They all looked at each other and became sleepy, wishing to leave the place of right and wrong quickly.

Chen Dan felt something was wrong, he looked around for Mingyan, and after looking around, he found him sitting beside the eldest princess, and immediately felt that the newcomer was too pitiful.

However, Mingshu didn't feel pitiful, the dishes in the restaurant were all good, and she just wanted to fill herself up when she was hungry.

Kang Ping was very serious at this time, and quietly talked about Jing Zhaoyin with the eldest princess.

"Jiang Zhiyi presented a lot of beauties to the emperor, which is very strange. She was originally a princess, but now, she has begun to favor the emperor."

Qin Tangxi pursed her red lips slightly, raised her hand to pour her a glass of wine, and replied: "The three-year term of office is about to expire, she just wants to stay in the capital. An official from a poor family is always different from you and me."

Kang Ping shook his head: "Although she comes from a poor family, you have brought her up with one hand, so she is not helpless. If there is a request, she should come to you."

"Pretend you don't know, let her do it, it's all Jing Zhaoyin's job, if he can turn the world upside down." Qin Tangxi didn't care either, Jiang Zhiyi was just someone who placed herself in presenting beauties.

Just like—the little girl beside her.

Mingshu was full, and gently put down her chopsticks, but when she looked down, she saw the eldest princess handing over a handkerchief under the table.

She froze for a moment, took it over, and wiped her mouth.

The servant Qian Dehuai saw it, and said with a smile: "Mingyan even wears a handkerchief with him, and he likes to be clean."

Kang Ping glanced at him: "Qian Shilang doesn't like to be clean himself, why don't people like to be clean?"

Qian Dehuai immediately pretended to be dumb and drank a glass of wine in silence.

The atmosphere was slightly stalemate, and Mingshu feared that she would not be able to get along with them in the future, so she said: "The county lord likes to joke, and the servant is not good at talking. I am here for the first time today, so I will toast you a cup."

"You're welcome, you're welcome." Qian Dehuai stepped down when he saw the steps, and he didn't forget to say: "It's a good habit to love cleanliness. I look at the Ministry of Accounts and I think you're cleaner. Chen Dan and the others basically walked in the mud. You will infect them in the future, so that they also love to be clean."

Ming Shu smiled like a flower, took a sip of wine, and suddenly heard the eldest princess say: "I heard that the county magistrate is hosting a banquet tonight?"

Kang Ping said: "His Royal Highness is really good at hearing, you can go clearly? Remember to prepare a gift when you go, other people don't need to bring a gift, you have to prepare."

Where does Mingshu have money, it is naturally the eldest princess.

Qin Tangxi glanced at her, but said nothing.

Because the eldest princess was here, everyone didn't dare to drink too much, and went back to the household department after filling their stomachs.

After everyone else left, Qin Tangxi took the opportunity to hold the little girl's hand and stared at her: "How does Kang Ping treat you?"

"The county lord is very kind to me."

Qin Tangxi withdrew the hand holding the little girl, curled her five fingers in the air for a while, and then embraced the little girl's waist again, pulling her closer.

Mingshu sat on her body reactively, her mind went blank, and she was about to stand up in a hurry.

Qin Tangxi refused, and raised her chin with her fine white fingers, exerting a little force, the little girl frowned in pain, and she calmly kissed her pursed lips.

Ming Shu understood that His Highness wanted to kiss her.

It wasn't the first time, she didn't refuse.

Lips and teeth are close together, and the faint smell of wine is replaced by a cold breath.

****

Kang Ping waited in the carriage for a while, and Mingshu came out first.

Everyone else had already left, and there were two carriages parked at the entrance of the restaurant. The little girl looked around for a while after poking her head out, but she didn't take a step.

She is hesitating.

Not long after, the eldest princess also came out, walked past her, and walked straight to the carriage of the princess mansion.

The little girl was a little disappointed, but she still boarded Kang Ping's carriage.

Kang Ping sneered, "A man should ride a horse, ride your horse." The corner of the little girl's mouth was stained red, and it was obvious that she had kissed her.

Not to be outdone, Ming Shu glared at her, then struggled to climb onto the horse's back, feeling a little scared after sitting on it herself.

This horse is a bit tall, and it is different from the horses she usually rides.

When she was about to leave, someone walked up to her, "Lord Ming, Your Highness has something to tell you."

"Ah, good." Mingshu happily climbed down again, and trotted up into the carriage of the Princess Mansion.

The carriage stopped in front of the Yamen of the Household Department. After Mingshu got off, the carriage continued to move forward without stopping for a moment.

Kang Ping also arrived, and poked her chin with his hand: "Men should not wear lip balm."

"I didn't wipe it on." Mingshu touched her mouth in a panic, she obviously didn't use lip balm when she went out this morning.

"If you want people not to know, you have to do nothing." After Kang Ping left a sentence, he turned and entered the office.

Mingshu ground her molars and didn't care about her. She must be jealous of His Highness.

****

The atmosphere in Dali Temple is solemn.

"Your Highness, after many days of comparison, I found that there is indeed treason in the letter from the Xinguo Mansion..." Dali Temple Secretary was uneasy, and after glancing at the cold eyes of the eldest princess, he boldly said: "But it is not treason, It's bringing up old things."

Qin Tangxi held a letter written by Duke Xin in his hand, with a few words, it was written to the former King Xiang of Chu.

King Xiang of Chu has a different surname, and was given the surname of Qin. He is not a prince of the clan.

Later, when Qin Zheng, King Xiang of Chu, was arrested for treason, the rebellious party once fled Luoyang City.

And Xin Guogong's letter is for the rebellious party.

The Minister of Dali Temple was puzzled, "Xin Guogong's move is tantamount to digging his own grave. If you want to reverse the case, it may not be easy, unless the letter is a forgery. After many days, I asked many people and Xin Guo Colleagues who are familiar with the Duke all say that this is the handwriting of Duke Xin. Your Highness, this is not a false accusation."

"This letter asks about old things, so you can see what kind of old things it is." Qin Tangxi said unwillingly.

The Minister of Dali Temple replied: "I don't know. I am very concerned about the separation of the old days as mentioned in the letter. The old man is still there. I am afraid of uneasiness. I am here to ask. Does the old man still mean to ask whether Zhao Qin is alive? The doubt is Qin Zheng's descendants?"

"Who else knows about this?" Qin Tangxi asked.

"I'm the only one. During the comparison, the minister covered up the letter. They don't know the whole picture of the letter. However, it's not difficult to guarantee that His Majesty doesn't know, or Rongchanghou and others."

The minister of Dali Temple was terrified and trembling when he thought of the old case back then. It was the case when Mingzong fell ill, when the late emperor was still the crown prince.

Back then when King Xiang of Chu's soldiers came to the city, it was Lord Xin Guo who was young and passionate, and led Zhao's soldiers into the enemy's camp, killed the enemy in blood, and captured Qin Zheng alive.

Blood flowed for thousands of miles in the military camp outside the city overnight, and the bones piled up into mountains. Almost half of the soldiers led by Lord Xin Guo were lost. After a few days of heavy rain, the blood flowed to the gate of the city, staining the land outside the capital red.

No matter how hard he thought that the person who caught the thief back then would be against the party.

Qin Tangxi had no impression, she was only 27 years old, and the bloody killings she experienced in those years had nothing to do with her.

But Xin Guogong’s overturning of the case hit a bottleneck, she thought for a while, and said: “Let’s put this aside for now, secretly find out who the old person in the letter is, and this letter should be sent out, why is it still in the Guogong’s office?” government."

"I'm already investigating, Your Highness is at ease, but I'm afraid it won't be possible to reverse the case. Even if there is no treason, collusion with the rebellious party will not be forgiven." Dali Temple Secretary reminded.

"Okay, Gu understands." Qin Tangxi stood up.

The light color in early March is very good, the sun is shining, and the blue clouds are floating in the sky.

When Qin Tangxi came out of Dali Temple, his legs were weak and his feet were weak. When he boarded the carriage, he found that his palms were drenched with sweat.

Spreading her palms, she stared at the fine sweat in her hands, and ignored the teachings of Lord Xin Guo when she was young: the grace of the king is like the sea, and the conscience is like a boat. A boat swims in the middle of the sea, and the heart rises and falls in the grace of the king.Your Majesty is a Mingjun, His Highness should believe it.As a child, filial piety is the first word, and the king is also a father.

She let out a sharp breath, and the previous teaching was like a slap in the face, which caught her off guard.

The carriage rattled off and headed for the palace.

Mingshu in the household department is doing well, and she is comfortable with the Kangping County Lord. After getting to know many colleagues, she gets along well.

When it was time to go to the Yamen, Kang Ping went back to the mansion first, and Chen Dan took her to the market to choose some gifts for the banquet.

Chen Dan rode a horse, Ming Shu had no choice but to settle down when he came, gritted his teeth and climbed on the horse, and found that his vision had broadened a lot after sitting still.

Chen Dan was in front, and she reined in the reins and followed slowly, riding the horse all the way without incident.

After arriving in West Market, Chen Dan first chose the jade shop, and after entering, the shopkeeper introduced him politely.

Mingshu listened from behind, she was no stranger to Princess Kangping, Chen Dan liked an inkstone, and she liked a pearl hairpin.

But Chen Dan said: "You are a man, it is not appropriate to send pearls and hairpins. There are pens here, so you can choose whatever you want."

"That's good." Mingshu chose a hair brush that was not expensive, and bought the pearl hairpin as before.She guessed that His Highness would prepare a gift, and it didn't matter what she gave it to, since Chen Dan had mentioned it, she had no choice but to follow the gift, but the pearl hairpin was for His Highness.

"Why do you still buy pearl hairpins?" When Chen Dan paid the silver, he wanted to pay her share by the way, but Mingshu refused, saying: "It's my intention that the gift is meager, how can I let you pay the silver."

After all, he took out his wallet and paid the money.

The two still got on their horses and walked on the road. Chen Dan asked curiously, "I heard that you were recommended?"

"Hmm." Ming Shu said.

The sunset was slanting to the west, and the pedestrians on the street were in a hurry, and the two of them walked slowly, relatively comfortably.

Mingshu looked at the surrounding environment, seemingly carelessly, while Chen Dan kept looking at her, and found that she was a little different from ordinary men, so he asked, "You come from Jianghuai?"

"Exactly, you have good eyesight." Ming Shu pretended to praise.

Chen Dan smiled heartily: "I heard that Jianghuai women are as beautiful as flowers, and their muscles and bones are like water. Your man is also like water. You can tell it at a glance."

Ming Shu smiled and said nothing, the Ming family came from Jianghuai, but they have taken root in the capital for 20 years.

After the two arrived at Kang Ping's mansion, other colleagues also arrived one after another. There was a banquet in the hall, and everyone was very casual.

Kang Ping entertained in the living room, and the maid received a lot of congratulatory gifts, and Ming Shu handed over the gift with the pen.Kang Ping raised his eyes and said, "You can just give the gift, I'm waiting for the gift from your master."

Sure enough, Your Highness the Keng.Mingshu smiled cleverly: "The county magistrate is joking."

"Don't tell me whether you're smiling or not. Pretending to be a man, don't touch women. You'll avoid the rubbing between your lips and teeth. Otherwise, remember to wipe your mouth." Kang Ping's eyes were dark.

Mingshu immediately covered her mouth and moved back vigilantly.

The others were already chatting and drinking in the mansion, and when they got together, they all said indecent words.

"Hua Pavilion heard that there are more girls, I'm going to see it tomorrow, I'm even more curious about what Mingshu looks like."

"Don't worry about Mingshu, it's His Royal Highness's heart."

"His Royal Highness snatched it from Wu Shizi. I heard that it is charming and moving."

The charming Ming Shu took a sip of the fruit wine quietly, narrowed her eyes happily, and reached out to grab another handful of fruit, not paying any attention to everyone's conversation.

Chen Dan said: "Why mention her, you and I can say whatever your Highness likes."

If it falls into the ears of the eldest princess, she must be punished.

After drinking a few cups, the Eldest Princess was still nowhere to be seen, the sky was already pitch black, and everyone waited in awe.

Ming Shu also felt something was wrong, so Kang Ping went to wait at the gate of the mansion, and waited for a long time before seeing the shadow of the carriage.

After the person came down, she complained: "You put on airs really well."

"I'm here to see the princess." Qin Tangxi climbed up the steps, his back shadowed by the coldness of the moonlight.

Kang Ping was stunned, "What did you see my mother doing?"

"You start the banquet first, go and say hello to her alone." Qin Tangxi insisted.

There was nothing Kang Ping could do, so he ordered someone to lead her to see her, and went back to the hall by himself.

Everyone waited eagerly, but the Kangping County Lord was the only one who frowned.

Kang Ping said calmly: "Let's start the banquet, your highness will go down to greet mother, you can do whatever you want."

Hearing this, Mingshu raised her head from the fruit. The mother of the Princess Kangping is the first emperor's aunt, Princess Lin'an. She is nearly 60 years old this year. I heard that she was born when she was in her 30s. She has always been very precious.

His Highness must have something to do to say hello at this time.

After the banquet started, the maidservants filed in, Ming Shu's table was full of delicate dishes, she sighed contentedly, and stuffed a piece of fish into her mouth.

The fish is delicious and delicious.

The hall is extremely lively, and the Buddhist hall in the backyard bursts with sandalwood.

The head of Lin'an County worshiped the Buddha for many years, and the beads in his hands were rolling loudly. He trembled when he heard Qin Zheng's name, "What do you ask him to do?"

"I think you've experienced this before, so I'm a little confused, so I want to ask you." Qin Tangxi knelt down in front of the Buddha.

The Buddhist bead in the hands of Princess Lin'an turned faster and her voice became louder. She opened her eyes and looked directly at the Buddha's eyeballs, "What does the eldest princess want to ask?"

"What is the relationship between Duke Xin and Qin Zheng?" Qin Tangxi asked.

"Siblings."

Qin Tangxi asked again: "What about Mingzong?"

Princess Lin'an then sighed: "I love father and son."

"Why did Qin Zheng seek rebellion?" Qin Tangxi didn't understand, she heard that Mingzong treated Qin Zheng well, and Qin Zheng shouldn't have raised troops when he was seriously ill.

Princess Lin'an said in a helpless tone: "I don't know these things, but he suddenly turned against him. If there is no Lord Xin, how can we have a stable life today."

It was impossible to ask this question, Qin Tangxi pondered for a while, and then asked after deliberation: "After Qin Zheng's death, will he have any heirs?"

"I don't know that. I'm a woman and I can't understand that much. If you want to know, you might as well look up the history books." The princess of Lin'an remained silent.

Qin Tangxi returned lonely.

When he walked to the front yard, he remembered that the little thing was still drinking in the mansion, so he turned around and headed for the hall.

When Kang Ping was talking to people, Mingshu dragged her cheeks and stared at the void, while Chen Dan kept chattering: "You are new to Luoyang, maybe you don't know the beautiful scenery here, I will take you to see it on the holidays, how about it?"

With bright red cheeks, dandelion-like lips, and stars-like eyes, the little girl has long been wandering in the sky, but what she thinks in her mind is that when her parents are both there, there will be His Highness in every banquet in the house.

No matter where you go to a banquet, you will always see the shadow of His Highness.

Today's banquet is approaching but I can't see His Highness, so I can't get used to it.

Everyone was drunk, but the wine was very good, and no one was talking nonsense whether they were sitting or standing.

When Qin Tangxi entered, some sober people stood up and saluted, and when she walked up to the little girl, she knocked on the table: "Mingyan."

Chen Dan raised his head first, and there were many figures in front of him. He wanted to speak but was dragged away by covering his mouth.

Ming Shu raised her head belatedly, and suddenly two Highnesses appeared in front of her eyes. She said cheerfully, "Your Highness, you already have one, how about giving one to me?"

So drunk that double images appeared, Qin Tangxi waved for everyone to back off.

After everyone retreated, she said, "What do you want one for?"

Mingshu raised her head, her eyes were bright, like dewdrops on lotus leaves on a summer morning, a smug smile curled up at the corners of her brows and eyes, and said softly, "Sleep..."

"What?" Qin Tangxi leaned over.

Ming Shu straightened up half of her body, followed the fragrance to find His Highness's ears, narrowed her eyes and said happily, "Sleep."

Kang Ping laughed out loud when he heard the words, and when he realized that he had lost his composure, he suddenly covered his mouth. She was a little confused who was the gold master.

Mingshu committed the following crimes.

With a cold face, Qin Tangxi ordered the maid to take the cloak from the carriage and wrap the little girl tightly.

The little girl was immersed in the 'dream' just now, thinking of the two Highnesses, one sleeping by herself and the other sleeping with her.

After thinking happily halfway, he was stuffed into the carriage.

The lights in front of the mansion were brightly lit, reflecting the light in the carriage clearly, she took the opportunity to hold His Highness's arm tightly, "Your Highness, can you make it?"

"Success or failure is up to you. Also, you haven't practiced for a few days. I'm afraid you forgot, right?" Qin Tangxi whispered softly, and placed the little girl on the seat. a box.

Out of curiosity, she asked, "Is this yours?"

"Hmm..." Mingshu narrowed her eyes to look, then snatched it back with her hand, and held the pearl hairpin to her heart. Thinking of what Kang Ping reminded her of today, she was unhappy and said, "County Lord Kangping..."

"You sent Kang Ping?" Qin Tangxi interrupted the little girl subconsciously.
