People who think I'm ugly are so sweet
Chapter 22
Xu Xilu is a frequent visitor of Qinghui Building. As soon as he stepped into Qinghui Building, the steward in the lobby greeted him immediately, "This young master...Second Master Xu?" After all, Xie Qingshen was well-trained, and the steward immediately put the smile on his face. Surprise suppressed, respectfully said: "It turned out to be Mr. Xu, but today you have an appointment with our son?"
"No," Xu Xilu said with a smile, "I just saw the little prince on the third floor, and I want to go over and say hello to him."
The steward hesitated for a moment, Xu Xilu saw his concerns, and said, "Don't worry, the little prince will not blame you."
"Then invite Second Master Xu and the younger one to come." Xu Xilu followed the steward to the private room on the third floor, and the latter said: "Second Master Xu, wait a moment, the younger one will go in and report."
"Thank you." After all, Song Yanqing is the prince who is most favored by the Queen Mother today. People who want to see him can line up from Changxing Street to the gate of Xu Mansion. Qinghui Building has to block many people for him every time. Now the manager is willing Going in and passing it on is already giving Xu Xilu a lot of face.Xu Xilu didn't wait long before the door opened, and the steward smiled and said, "Second Master Xu, please."
As soon as Xu Xilu took half a step in, he felt two completely different eyes falling on him.There was suspicion in one shock, and a bit of charm in the other surprise. "Little prince," Xu Xilu bowed his hands to Song Yanqing, then turned to another young master who was born in front of him, "this is..."
The corners of Shen Zixian's mouth raised slightly, revealing a self-confident smile, "I, Shen Zixian, are the seventh sons of Duke Shen."
There is only one Duke surnamed Shen in the capital, Xu Xilu said with a smile: "It turns out to be Mr. Seventh Shen, I have admired him for a long time."
Song Yanqing frowned and stared at Xu Xilu, as if trying to see a hole in him.In the end, he had to admit with an inexplicable sense of frustration that the handsome young man in moon white in front of him was really Xu Xilu who had a hideous face.
He was frightened.
"I don't say I know all the young masters in the capital, but I know eight out of ten. I also know Xu Xuanying from the Xu family. Why haven't I met the second young master Xu?" Shen Zixian weighed it up and down again. Speaking of Xu Xilu, he said affectionately from the corner of his eyes: "I only need to meet such a handsome and handsome man like Xu Ergong once, and I will never forget it for the rest of my life."
Song Yanqing twitched the corner of her mouth when she heard the words, and mercilessly exposed Xu Xilu's black history, "The former Second Master Xu couldn't catch your eye."
"Oh?" The smile in Shen Zixian's eyes faded a little, but his tone was still somewhat ambiguous, "You can't follow what happened yesterday, Second Young Master Xu, I will only remember your current appearance."
Song Yanqing sneered: "Have you forgotten my fourth uncle? After going to the north of Xinjiang for a few years, he was even thinner than a woman. After a few months in the capital, he still looks the same? People change. "
"Cousin!" Shen Zixian blamed, "Do you have to spoil my interest?"
"En?" Song Yanqing raised her eyebrows slightly, "I remember, your current interest is in that Miss Yao. Has there been another replacement?"
Shen Zixian was instantly blocked by him and couldn't say a word, so he could only call helplessly: "Cousin..."
Song Yanqing said impatiently: "After the matter is finished, you should go back quickly, and don't cause trouble for uncle and aunt outside, and hinder my king's eyes."
Shen Zixian knew very well that his cousin had a bad temper, and once he got angry, even the emperor had to coax him several times to calm him down. Now that he got his promise today, it would be counterproductive to pester him any longer. "Yes, cousin, then I'll go back home and wait for your news." Shen Zixian looked at Xu Xilu again, showing his smile every time he lingered among the flowers, "Second Master Xu, see you by fate."
"Young Master Shen Qi go slowly." Xu Xilu watched Shen Zixian leave with a smile, and before he came back to look away, he heard Song Yanqing teasingly said: "Why, you have taken a fancy to Shen Zixian again this time?"
Xu Xilu was a little baffled, he really couldn't understand Song Yanqing's brain circuit, so he could only say: "What is the little prince talking about, how can I still have a crush on other people with such gems as the young prince in front of me?"
Song Yanqing was taken aback for a moment, and then said ferociously: "You are not allowed to fall in love with this king! How can you fall in love with this king?"
"Oh," Xu Xilu sullenly tried to hold back a smile, "Well, it's a pity."
Song Yanqing suddenly felt that something was wrong, looked at Xu Xilu, then looked at Xuan Mo, and finally realized that she suddenly jumped up, "Xu Xilu, you're playing tricks on me again!"
"Don't dare dare!" Xu Xilu's face was full of sincerity, "The prince helped me clear up the rumors and return my innocence. I don't even have time to thank you. How dare you play tricks on the prince?"
Song Yanqing's angry arrogance was a little less, and her tone was blunt, "Don't get me wrong, this king only helped Xu Taihe and Xie Ji because of their face, and it has nothing to do with you."
"I know that." Xu Xilu said with a smile, "But in the end, the lord still helped me, and this time I also came here to thank the lord."
"Really." Song Yanqing said contemptuously, "What about your thank you gift?"
Xu Xilu was only stunned for a moment, and immediately realized, "Jiu Dong."
Jiudong, who was suddenly named, didn't know, so he said, "Master?"
"Take out the sachet I just picked out for the little prince."
Jiudong didn't dare to ask any more questions, so he hurriedly handed over the things.Xu Xilu took the sachet calmly and put it on the table, "This sachet has a unique shape and a strong medicinal fragrance. It also has the effect of exorcising evil spirits and avoiding poison, and preventing epidemics. It looks so unique to me that I am reluctant to use it. Keep it for the prince."
Song Yanqing glanced at Xu Xilu's gift, and couldn't believe that Xu Xilu just used this to get rid of herself, "What kind of junk—"
"The ancients said, 'Goose feathers are sent thousands of miles away, and affection is more important than gifts'. My lord, this sachet is much more valuable than goose feathers." After all, it cost him a few taels of silver.
"Xu Xilu," Song Yanqing gritted his teeth, "I gave you a monkey last time, and this time I gave you a sachet. Are you really tired of living?"
Seeing that Song Yanqing seemed to be really irritated by him, Xu Xilu hurriedly said: "If the prince doesn't like it, then I will come to visit with a gift next time."
"No need." Song Yanqing sneered, "Xuanmo, put away the sachet, I have to carry it with me, and if anyone asks, I will tell the truth—this is the second son of the Xu family who thanked me for washing it Injustice specially sent."
Xuan Mo said seriously: "Yes."
Jiudong couldn't hold back a burst of laughter, met Song Yanqing's gaze, and hurriedly put on an expression of being in front of a friend's bed.Xu Xilu's face was a little hot. He thought Song Yanqing was a irascible dragon who would hit at one point, but he didn't expect him to have a few brushes when he wanted to be evil.If Song Yanqing really publicizes this matter, it is estimated that he will bear the reputation of being penniless, not to mention that personal items such as sachets have always been given to lovers by affectionate women. Even if I jumped into Xunjiang, I couldn't wash it off.Xu Xilu weighed it over and over again, decided to change the subject, and to expose the matter first, so he said: "My lord, you seem to be in a bad mood today?"
"With you, when will this king be in a better mood?" Song Yanqing said angrily.
"My lord is obviously because Mr. Shen Qi is in a bad mood, why did you put this hat on my head?" Xu Xilu's tone showed a trace of grievance.
Song Yanqing was led astray by Xu Xilu, and said in astonishment, "How do you know?"
"I just heard that Mr. Shen Qi said that he would wait for news from the lord in the mansion, and the lord mentioned 'Miss Yao', so I dared to guess, but Mr. Shen Qi had something that should not be mentioned to the lord. Is it related to that Miss Yao?"
Song Yanqing didn't make any sarcasm, which means that Xu Xilu's guess is pretty close. "If the prince is worried about this matter, why don't you just listen to me, maybe I can share the worries for the prince."
"It's up to you? What can you do?"
"..."
The two were tacitly silent.
Finally, Song Yanqing spoke first: "Shen Zixian, he wants Yao Min's concubine to be his concubine."
After listening to Song Yanqing's narration, Xu Xilu thought about it and said: "I heard that Mr. Shen Qi has always been unruly and flirtatious, and his reputation is well-deserved."
Song Yanqing sneered: "If you say that about him, you underestimate him. According to this king, he will die on the bed sooner or later."
"Then why does the prince still help him?"
Song Yanqing said impatiently: "Who said that the king is going to help him? But let him stabilize first, so as not to find others to embarrass himself."
"My lord is wise. However, I heard that Mr. Shen Qi has always had a very high vision, but people with a little beauty can't catch his eyes. His wife, Princess Fangyi, was one of the top three beauties on the Qinghui List back then. The concubines and singers are all as beautiful as heaven. Wang Ye, do you think he is a dedicated person?"
"nonsense."
Xu Xilu said with a smile: "Since he is not, how beautiful is that Miss Yao, so that Mr. Shen Qi would not hesitate to kneel down and beg the lord, offend Mr. Yao, and take the risk of being played by the censor, but he must accept her." How about going in? I haven't even seen Miss Yao's name on the Qinghui List, so could it be...Master Shen Qi has taken a fancy to her temperament?"
"Impossible." Song Yanqing said decisively, "He always only looks at the outside, not the inside."
Xu Xilu nodded, "If that's the case, then there must be something hidden in it. Why don't you investigate this matter thoroughly before making a decision, Your Highness."
Although extremely unwilling, Song Yanqing had to admit that what Xu Xilu said was very reasonable.If anyone knows the grievances and grievances of the Shangjingzhong family like the back of their hands, Qinghuilou ranks second, and no one dares to be the first. "Xuan Mo," Song Yanqing said, "Go out and find out what happened to Shen Zixian's encounter with Miss Yao in Xunjiang."
"Yes."
"No," Xu Xilu said with a smile, "I just saw the little prince on the third floor, and I want to go over and say hello to him."
The steward hesitated for a moment, Xu Xilu saw his concerns, and said, "Don't worry, the little prince will not blame you."
