The son-in-law is too shy

When Li Qiushuang rode her horse to the gate of the palace, there was already someone waiting, and when she saw her coming, she greeted her with a smile.

"Frost."

Li Qiushuang dismounted, looked at the purple-robed man in front of him, and nodded slightly: "Brother Emperor."

The person who came was the present prince, Li Qiushuang's elder brother Li Chengxu.

Li Chengxu stepped forward, nodded and said with a smile: "It's been a long time since we saw each other, and our Shuang'er is much prettier again."

Li Qiushuang just smiled lightly, and then said: "Brother Huang already knows what happened on the pier?"

Li Chengxu didn't hide it, nodded and said: "You are making too much noise, it's hard not to know, I think the father and queen mother should already know, and I'm waiting here for you to enter the palace together."

Li Qiushuang understood clearly, nodded and said: "I see, brother Huang is here."

Li Chengxu laughed, waved his hands and said: "Let's go, don't tell Father to wait."

"it is good."

Li Qiushuang responded, and handed over the palace card to Li Chengxu and entered the palace.

"His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness Princess Ningyang." The servant next to Emperor Wen greeted the two with a smile when he saw them.

"Eunuch Jiang." Li Chengxu nodded slightly and said, "Where is Father now?"

"The emperor and empress are waiting for you two in the imperial study." Jiang Yun said with a smile.

"Oh? I have Mr. Lao, Shuang'er, let's go." Li Chengxu nodded and said to Li Qiushuang.

"En." Li Qiushuang didn't say much, and after Jiang Yun's report, she and Li Chengxu entered the imperial study room, and saw two bright yellow figures as soon as they entered.

"My sons and ministers see the father, the queen and the queen." The two saluted together.

"Get up." Emperor Wen waved his hands, looking at the loving smiles of the two.

"Thank you, Father."

Zhang Qingnian, the empress of Emperor Wen, stepped forward to hold Li Qiushuang, with tears in her eyes: "You girl, you haven't come back for such a long time, do you know how much your mother misses you."

"Mother's queen." Li Qiushuang held Zhang Qingnian's hand instead, and smiled faintly: "Didn't my daughter come back?"

"It's good to be back." Zhang Qingnian wiped away the tears on his face, and immediately said with a smile: "The Empress Mother ordered someone to prepare your favorite dishes. Let's have dinner in the palace tonight."

"Everything is arranged by the queen mother." Li Qiushuang smiled softly.

Emperor Wen looked at this scene, nodded in satisfaction, and then recalled what his servant had reported before, and couldn't help asking: "Shuang'er, do you know who sent the person who assassinated you today?"

When Emperor Wen asked this question, everyone looked at Li Qiushuang nervously.

Li Qiushuang shook his head and said: "That man's martial arts are treacherous, not like Central Plains martial arts. I have ordered Mr. Pei, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, to salvage the assassin's body. We can only see if there are any items on the assassin's body that can prove his identity."

Emperor Wen nodded and said: "I will ask Jin Wuwei to assist in this matter. Although you are good at martial arts, you must be careful."

"Father, don't worry, my daughter understands." Li Qiushuang nodded.

"En." Emperor Wen responded, and then said: "Forget it, it's getting late, you should go and see your imperial grandma. I heard you came back, but she misses you very much."

"Well, my daughter knows, I'll go later." Li Qiushuang nodded in response.

At dusk, Xu Huai'an sat at the table in his room, staring at the cold tea in his hand in a daze.

What Li Chengyu said when he sent her back echoed in her ears, making her think deeply.

Li Qiushuang was the son of the emperor and the empress, and was born with the same mother as the prince. When he was young, he was very clever and was favored by the emperor and the empress dowager. Unfortunately, he lost her husband, which made the empress dowager put this precious granddaughter at the top of her heart. It can be said that she is very favored.

What's more, she is also the closed disciple of Lingjue Sword Immortal Qingyangzi, the master of Lingjue Palace, the righteous way of martial arts, and she has learned her true biography, and she has acted chivalrously to save the people all over the world.

It's not surprising that such a talented woman would be targeted by others. With the turmoil in the court and the central government, all forces want to trample other forces under their feet. Li Qiushuang is the main figure in the prince's party, even if she does not return to Beijing all year round. They will also be targeted by others. All parties in the world are less than Ling Juegong who dare not speak out, and crooked ways are also trying to dampen Ling Juegong's vitality. As the chief disciple, Li Qiushuang is naturally the first choice.

Thinking of this, Xu Huai'an couldn't help feeling sorry for this princess, who seemed to be loved by thousands of people, but in fact lived a life of licking blood.

Xu Huaian's hand holding the cup couldn't help exerting a little force.

But at this moment the door was knocked, Xu Huai'an quickly changed his expression, put the teacup on the table, and said in response: "Come in."

Hongtao pushed the door and entered, and when she saw Xu Huai'an, a trace of unbearableness flashed in her eyes, but she still said: "Second young master, the master asked you to go to the front hall."

Xu Huai'an nodded with a gentle smile when he heard the words: "I see, this will pass."

Xu Huaian got up and walked out the door.

She had already guessed that Xu Yitang would call her over, how could such a big incident happen today, how could her father who is now Prime Minister not know about it?

When he came to the front hall, as expected, he saw Xu Yitang sitting in the first seat with a livid face, the eldest lady sitting next to him, and the second aunt sitting down and looking at her worriedly. They all rushed back.

"My son greets Daddy." Xu Huai'an bowed and saluted.

Xu Yitang looked at this young son, his face was handsome, he was a little less masculine than his elder brother, but he was a little more gentle, and there were many disasters and illnesses on weekdays, so it would be fine if he could take care of him peacefully, but he followed him all day long. King Jin was fooling around, and he didn't have the slightest hard work that a scholarly child should have, but it made him a little annoyed.

"Where did you go today?" Xu Yitang asked in a deep voice.

Xu Huai'an knew that Xu Yitang knew it in his heart, so he didn't hide anything and told everything.

"Bastard!" Xu Yitang yelled angrily after hearing the case.

Xu Huai'an looked calm, waiting for Xu Yitang's news.

"Do you know that if you hadn't dragged Princess Ningyang to go on a cruise, how could Princess Ningyang have been assassinated? If the princess was injured, do you think you can afford it?!" Xu Yitang scolded angrily.

Xu Huai'an closed his eyes when he heard the words, and did not refute, but said: "My son knows his mistake, and he is willing to be punished."

"Go to the ancestral hall to kneel tonight, and don't come out without my permission." Xu Yitang waved his hands impatiently.

The second aunt's expression changed when she heard this: "Master..."

Xu Huaiyuan also couldn't bear it: "Daddy, the third brother..."

"Whoever begs again will be punished!" Xu Yitang scolded.

Xu Huai'an closed his eyes and cupped his hands: "Thank you father for your kindness, my son will go now."

After saying that, he backed out, Xu Yitang looked at his youngest son's thin back, and there was some unbearable in his eyes, but it was fleeting.

Xu Huai'an obediently came to the ancestral hall and knelt down, straightened his waist, Hongtao watched from the side with red eyes, stomped his feet anxiously and said: "Second young master, your body is just right, what should I do if I get sick again? Slaves Go and beg the master again, please let the master take it lightly."

With that said, he turned around and was about to walk towards the door.

"Cough cough, come back." Xu Huai'an coughed twice, and then said: "It's okay, Sister Tao'er, go and rest."

"But Second Young Master..." Hongtao burst into tears.

"It's really nothing, Sister Tao'er, don't worry." Xu Huai'an sighed softly.

"The servant is here to accompany you." Hongtao said and knelt down beside Xu Huai'an with a futon.

Xu Huai'an shook his head and said: "If Sister Tao'er is doing my best, get up quickly, if Daddy sees it, he will definitely punish him harder."

"But..." Heart wanted to say something else.

"Be obedient." Xu Huai'an said helplessly.

Hearing Xu Huai'an's insistence, Heart had no choice but to say: "Then young master, I'll go to the side to rest, if you need anything, just call me."

"Well, let's go." Xu Huai'an nodded.

After Hearts left, Xu Huai'an heaved a sigh of relief, but he was deeply moved in his heart.

This time, she was really cheated by Li Chengyu.

This Xu Yitang is also a hard-hearted person, he actually asked Xu Huai'an to kneel in the ancestral hall for a whole night, and Xu Huai'an, who was always weak, fell ill again as expected.

It was already a day later when the news reached Li Qiushuang's ears.

The person who had already forgotten it, after she silently listened to the words of the maid beside her, remembered the Second Young Master Xu from that day.

She was silent for a moment, then asked: "Then Mr. Xu is in serious trouble."

The maid shook her head and said, "Second Master Xu had a severe fever yesterday and only woke up today. This Xu Xiangguo is really too cruel."

Li Qiushuang smiled and shook her head, "Why do you care so much about other people's family affairs?"

"Young Palace Master, you don't know. This Xiangguo is very biased. Just because the Second Young Master Xu is not yet full-term, he treats you harshly in every way. It is really infuriating." This maid is Li Qiushuang's disciple brought out by Lingjue Palace. It is her confidant.

When Li Qiushuang listened, she understood the general idea, but she frowned when she thought about whether Xu Huaian was punished or whether she was implicated by her. Second son."

"Ah? Young Palace Master, are you going to see Second Young Master Xu?" Jiang Xiuqing looked puzzled. Li Qiushuang was cold-tempered and rarely walked around with people in the past. She would be puzzled to visit Second Young Master Xu in person this time. .

"Just do it." Li Qiushuang said helplessly.

"Yes." Jiang Xiuqing quickly responded and retreated.

When Li Qiushuang arrived at Xiangfu, Xu Yitang personally went out to greet him.

"The old minister sees Her Royal Highness the Princess."

Li Qiushuang got off the horse, handed the horse to the attendant, and immediately said: "Xu Xiangguo doesn't need to be polite, please get up quickly."

"Yes." Xu Yitang looked at Li Qiushuang, not knowing why the princess, who was so unpredictable, came here.

Xu Yitang welcomed him into the front hall full of doubts, and then asked: "I don't know why Your Highness came to the humble house?"

Li Qiushuang did not pretend to be false, and said bluntly: "The Japanese palace and the second son of your mansion are on a cruise. They don't want to encounter assassins. The second son was burdened by this palace. I heard that he was seriously ill after returning. This incident was caused by this palace. Ben Gong specially came to visit, and hoped that Lord Xiangguo would allow me to see the Second Young Master."

She spoke perfectly, she didn't mention Xu Yitang's punishment of Xu Huai'an, she pretended she didn't know about it, and she gave Xu Yitang enough face.

"This..." Xu Yitang now understood what the princess was talking about, and he couldn't help frowning.

"Is Xiangguo inconvenient?" Li Qiushuang looked at him indifferently, but Xu Yitang was covered in cold sweat in shock.

"Don't dare, it's just that the child is seriously ill, and I'm afraid that His Highness will suffer from the illness." Xu Yitang said hastily.

"It doesn't matter, I have practiced with my teacher for many years, and I am also proficient in medicine. Maybe I can help the second son a little bit." Li Qiushuang said calmly.

Speaking of this, Xu Yitang knew that it was meaningless to say it, so he got up and said: "In this case, the old minister will lead the way for His Highness."

"Hey, no need." Li Qiushuang stood up, "Xiangguo is busy with business, don't delay because of my palace, just ask a servant to lead me to go, how dare you bother Xiangguo."

"This, that's fine." Seeing that Li Qiushuang didn't want him to be there, Xu Yitang could only call a servant to lead Li Qiushuang to Xu Huaian's yard.
