Innocent cast of white iron

Chapter 23 Jealousy

"Master," Wang Fu knocked on the door of the study, and said, "There is a young man who says he is an old acquaintance of the master, and he is waiting in the living room."

Without raising his head, Zhao Qi continued to look at the document in his hand, and said, "Uncle Fu, there are too many people who claim to know the truth, so let's get rid of them."

Wang Fu said again, "But that young master has the jade pendant that you wear next to your master."

Having said that, Zhao Qi knew who that young master was without even thinking about it!But this person first planned to take him away and then dared to drug him, how could he still have the guts to take pictures of the prime minister's residence?Zhao Qi closed the document in his hand, tapped the table with his index finger, his face was uncertain.It was the first time in Zhao Qi's two lifetimes that he fell for someone else's tricks. When he got up in the morning, he endured for a long time before he broke his neck.

"Bring him in."

"Yes, sir." Wang Fu replied.After a while, he led the wild cat over.

As soon as the boy entered the study, he looked at Zhao Qi with dissatisfaction, his peach blossom eyes were full of charm, "Why did your lord leave him alone in the room this morning, could it be that I didn't serve you well last night?"

Zhao Qi waved Wang Fu to retreat first.Wang Fu smiled knowingly, quickly backed out, and closed the door considerately by the way.

"What are you doing here?" Zhao Qi glanced at him, raised his chin and signaled him to sit on the soft stool beside him.

The young man smiled, walked over a few steps and sat on his lap, wrapped his arms around his shoulders, and said softly, "Of course I came here to find that heartless person~"

Zhao Qi let him hook him, and asked lightly, "Where's my jade pendant?"

The boy didn't answer, and continued, "Yesterday I went to the peach blossom forest to wait for you just to lure you into the bait, but you were not tempted at all, so I had to knock you out and take you home. Oh, I heard that you usually I don't even have a girl to sleep with, if it wasn't for last night... I thought you couldn't do it~"

Zhao Qi smiled and said, "So you did get close to me on purpose, what's your purpose?"

"Why don't you ask me what my name is first?" The young man stared at him coquettishly, "At least I'm yours now!"

"What's your name?" Zhao Qi asked.

The boy raised the corner of his mouth and smiled triumphantly, "I won't tell you!"

Zhao Qi wondered what the boy's intentions were, and if he wanted to be an undercover agent by his side, how could he reveal his identity in the first place.Is it just simply wanting prosperity and wealth?No matter which one it is, it is certain that the purpose of this person approaching him is not pure.

It's okay to be a bed partner, and things after that will be avoided.Zhao Qi remembered what happened last night. Although he was drugged, the child's service skills were not fake, but it seemed to be the first time seeing him in such pain.It was eccentric.

Seeing that Zhao Qi didn't ask, the young man couldn't help it anymore, and said sullenly, "Luo Qingzhou, my name is Luo Qingzhou!"

Zhao Qi nodded and said, "It's a good name."

Luo Qingzhou bent her eyes and smiled, took out a jade pendant from her bosom, and said, "This jade pendant looks old, I took it off yesterday when I saw you tied it around your waist, as far as I know, the prime minister's mansion should be You can’t even give me a jade pendant, can you? Could it be that this is very important?”

This jade is high-quality Hetian jade, green and transparent, and the corners and corners have been polished smooth after a long time.

Is it important?Zhao Qi stared at the jade for a long time, and finally said, "It's nothing special."

*****

"Come, Feilu, I'll give you this jade pendant." The petite woman with a big belly smiled softly, and handed the jade pendant around her neck to Zhao Qi.

Zhao Qi was only four years old at this time, took the jade pendant and smiled sweetly at his mother, "Thank you, mother."

"Well, Feilu, you have to remember that this jade pendant was passed down from your grandmother to your father, and your father gave it to me. In the future, if you have a woman you like, you can give this to her, which is also regarded as a gift. Mother's whole heart." Mrs. Zhao patted his head with a smile, and said, "If you like someone, you must be wholehearted. Although it is normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines, mother would rather you only have one woman whom you love deeply. , and grow old with her forever."

Zhao Qi nodded, "Yeah." I don't understand, mother.

Mrs. Zhao said again, "Oh, Feilu has grown so big in a blink of an eye. I don't know if I can be as obedient as you, just don't be a troublemaker!"

Zhao Qi nodded, "Yeah." Actually, I'm only four years old, mother.

Half a month later, Mrs. Zhao gave birth and gave birth to a son named Lin.Soon after, he passed away early due to sepsis, leaving behind two innocent children.This jade pendant is Mrs. Zhao's relic, and it is Zhao Qi's favorite thing, so it has been worn for more than 20 years.

"What is this?" Han Zhen raised his head, seemingly puzzled.

Zhao Qi smiled and said, "For you."

"Oh." Han Zhen lowered his head and looked at the jade pendant in his hand again. It was just a small and worthless item, and the national treasury had everything.There is nothing rare.

The jade pendant slipped from his hand, fell to the ground with a crisp sound, and immediately flew in all directions, shattered and fell to the ground.

Han Zhen smiled at him, "I'm sorry Taifu, I'm not sure."

It took Zhao Qi a while to say softly, "Don't worry, it's not a big deal." Then he bent down and squatted down, carefully picking up the broken jade on the ground.

*****

Things that have been broken long ago are of course not important.Zhao Qi looked at the piece of jade and smiled lightly, "Take it if you like it."

Luo Qingzhou said, "But really? If you send it to me, there is no reason to take it back."

Luo Qingzhou's eyebrows and eyes are a bit like Han Zhen, but his peach blossom eyes are full of charm.Zhao Qi saw his charming smile, which seemed to be seductive, so he stretched out his hand and pushed him away, saying, "Okay, the truth is still important, you go out and find a place for a walk."

"Oh, sir, is it true that you can sit still?" Luo Qingzhou giggled, and blew in his ear, "It seems that we still need to use medicine?"

"..." Zhao Qi frowned, reached out and raised his chin, "I'll teach you a lesson when I'm done with my work." This kitten didn't know where it came from, nor what purpose it had.Instead of letting him make trouble in other places, it's better to keep him by your side, and see what tricks he can make.

Luo Qingzhou bent her eyes and smiled charmingly, "Your Excellency, please be gentle this time, he is still in pain~"

"Okay, let's go out. I'll ask Uncle Fu to prepare a side room for you later." Zhao Qi pushed him away and rubbed his legs.

Liu Changqing didn't sleep last night, so he stayed in the prime minister's mansion to rest for several hours.When I woke up, it was afternoon, and the sun slanted into the room through the window, glowing with golden light.

He was about to get up to get dressed, but the door was pushed open by someone, and a boy with a pretty face and a smile like a peach blossom came in.As soon as the boy entered the door and saw him, he was stunned for a moment, and then smiled lightly, "Oh~ no wonder he's not interested in me, so there's one hidden here."

Liu Changqing didn't understand, put on his clothes neatly and fastened his belt, and said, "Who are you?"

Luo Qingzhou secretly thought that although Zhao Qi said he was a modest gentleman on the surface, he was actually very dignified.She thought he was really like Liu Xiahui, but who knew it was a fake.Inexplicably upset.

Luo Qingzhou covered her lips and said with a smile, "Of course I am the prime minister's new love, I will live here from now on."

Wang Fu stood outside the door, the corners of his mouth twitching.This brat actually thought that the governors of the third rank and four provinces in the court were his rivals in love, and became jealous. . .Alas, I hope Lord Liu doesn't mind, after all, this child was the first one brought into the mansion by the master.

Who said Liu Changqing didn't mind, he clearly did.But it's not that he doesn't mind that the other party treats him as a rival in love, but that Zhao Qi let this young man live in the house.

Liu Changqing frowned, and said coldly, "You said you will live here from now on?"

Luo Qingzhou smiled, "Actually, it's the same wherever you live, but I just fell in love with this one. You're going to move out anyway, and this place will be mine from now on."

"..." Liu Changqing was so angry that he turned around and waved his sleeves away.

Luo Qingzhou smiled behind him, "Oh, maybe I'm going to find an adult to argue~ Your office is busy, so don't make trouble!"

Wang Fu was so frightened that his beard trembled, he hurriedly went forward to hold Luo Qingzhou, and said, "Oh my ancestor, please don't say a few words, this is Master Liu's colleague, the third-rank governor of the dynasty."

Besides, what is Zhao Qi doing at this time?

I saw a masked man in black jumping into the study from the window, kneeling on one knee, his voice was calm and unwavering, probably from a secret guard, "My lord, my subordinates have sent people to investigate, and there is no harvest yet. .”

Zhao Qi said, "I'll give you three days to find out who he is from."

The masked man in black replied, "Subordinates must live up to their mission!"

At this time, there was a commotion outside the door, and the masked man in black quickly ran up the beam and disappeared.

After a while, I saw Liu Changqing rushing over, without even knocking on the door, and kicked away the people in the study, "It's not a deer!"

Zhao Qi didn't expect that Liu Changqing would be so rude. You should know that this study is usually a secret place, but he actually forced his way in like this.Zhao Qi put down the Chinese scroll in his hand, glanced at him lightly, and said, "What's the matter?"

On the way, Liu Changqing wanted to reason about it, asking what was the relationship between that young man and Zhao Qi.But at this moment, he suddenly saw Zhao Qi's cold eyes, and suddenly he woke up.what is he doingThis is the study in the prime minister's mansion!No matter how gentle Zhao Qi is usually, he will always get angry.

Liu Changqing hurriedly lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty, I'm being rude."

Zhao Qi ignored him, but looked at the guard at the door, and said coldly, "A bunch of trash, go down and receive the punishment yourself."

A group of guards quickly knelt down and said in unison, "This subordinate deserves to die!" Then they retreated.To tell the truth, they were also innocent. One must know that Zhao Qi and Liu Changqing had always had a good relationship, and Liu Changqing was an official of the imperial court, so these guards followed him.Who knew that Zhao Qi turned his face and refused to recognize anyone, what a pity.

Besides, Liu Changqing kept his head down and remained silent, feeling extremely wronged in his heart.

Zhao Qi said, "Let's talk after we come in."

Liu Changqing just entered the room, but he couldn't say what he should say, so he could only stand silently in front of him without saying a word.I want to ask many things clearly in my heart, but I can't say it with my mouth.Liu Changqing thought to himself again, how did that young man know that Zhao Qi was doing business? Could it be that he just came out of the study?Could it be that he stayed with Zhao Qi all the time?

Zhao Qi originally wanted to teach him a lesson, but seeing that he seemed disappointed, he couldn't speak anymore, so he slowed down and said, "Sit down. Come to me rashly, but what do you want?" thing?"

Liu Changqing sat down on the chair next to him and said sincerely, "It's nothing serious."

Zhao Qi glanced at him, and said in a deep voice, "I told you earlier, don't be impetuous. The most taboo thing for an official is to make a fuss and be at a loss. If you broke into the imperial study today, you will lose your head."

Liu Changqing quickly sat up straight, "I understand."

"Okay, go out if you have nothing to do, I still have some things to deal with."

Liu Changqing responded, but didn't get up, looking at him hesitating to speak.Zhao Qi was not in a hurry, so he looked at him quietly, waiting for him to speak.

After a long time, Liu Changqing said sullenly, "I'm fine, you should be busy."

Saying nothing, but thinking too much.For example, the identity of that boy, the relationship between you, and, do you like him?Does he really want to live here?

But Zhao Qi thought about it again, that boy kept calling him an adult, how could he call him Feilu affectionately.Thinking of this, Liu Changqing felt much better, and went out with a smile on his lips.
