Lord, your mask fell off

Chapter 1024

The servant girl led the two of them to a room, then knocked on the door lightly, until she heard a lazy reply from inside, she pushed the door open and let Chu Qingyan and the two of them in.

In the eyes, there are gorgeous veils everywhere, and the veils are wrapped around the corners of the whole room, giving people a hazy and confusing illusion.

There are not many interior decorations, a few paintings are hung, and a guqin is hung behind the main seat. In addition, there is a vase on the table with a few branches of jasmine on it. The whole room is both elegant and charming.

It is worthy of being the number one oiran in Kyoto.

At this time, there was a sound of footsteps, Chu Qingyan held a folding fan, followed the sound, and saw a woman in a silver goose-yellow long dress with a graceful figure slowly appearing from behind the fluttering veil.

"Young master." Seeing the pockmarked young man in front of her, Shui Ling didn't show her emotions like a bustard, and bowed calmly. However, for some reason, after seeing the young man for the first time, she felt that It seems to have seen it somewhere, especially this pair of eyes.

Just as Shui Ling recalled, Chu Qingyan pursed her lips and smiled, "Shui Ling, look who I am?"

Shui Ling was taken aback, this person actually knew her real name!His eyes just turned to vigilance, but after the other party took the veil and wiped it on his face, his eyes suddenly widened.

"Little Wangfei—" the voice sounded, she calmed down and knelt down to salute, "This subordinate has seen the little Wangfei."

"Don't be too polite, get up!" Chu Qingyan smiled and helped her up.

After Shui Ling got up, she asked doubtfully, "Little Wangfei, why did you show up like this?"

She had been waiting for the arrival of the little princess, but she didn't know that it would be in such a situation, and she couldn't help admiring the weirdness of the little princess.

"We just returned to Beijing and stared at too many people, so in order to deceive others, I had to sacrifice my appearance." Chu Qingyan pretended to sigh.

In fact, what she most wanted to hide was his big ice cube. If she found out that she had come to play in the Fengyue place, she would probably have to preach for several days!

Shui Ling nodded, and made tea for herself.

Chu Qingyan glanced around the room, and then turned her attention to Shui Ling in front of her. When I saw her in the palace that day, she was charming and charming. Now here, her makeup is a little more seductive. She is indeed the most ever-changing The master of pigeon feather riding, good at different faces.

"Little wangfei, is there any flowers on your face? Why do you keep staring at me?" Shui Ling looked at her puzzled.

Chu Qingyan laughed, "No, you don't have flowers on your face, you are a flower yourself, a charming rose!"

Shui Ling smiled "puchi", "Little Wangfei, you really know how to make fun of your subordinates."

Chu Qingyan replied seriously, "I'm not joking, I'm telling the truth. By the way, I have two things to ask you this time."

"Please speak."

"One is to thank you for helping me choose the clothes that fit me last time, so that I won't be ashamed." Chu Qingyan thanked him sincerely.

Shui Ling smiled, "This is what subordinates should do, you don't have to take it to heart."

"Secondly, there is something I would like to entrust to you. Regarding my father's defeat in the war 15 years ago, I want to know the ins and outs!" Chu Qingyan said solemnly, with a serious expression on his face.

Shui Ling nodded, and then said, "Little Wangfei, even if you don't instruct your subordinates, your subordinates are still investigating this matter. The master has already instructed your subordinates to do it before. It was only because of the invasion of the Nancang Kingdom that there was a delay, but The subordinates have found some clues."

"Okay, tell me quickly." Chu Qingyan didn't expect to have this unexpected harvest, and immediately urged.

Shui Ling said slowly.

At this time in the palace.

Xiao Xu was about to enter the imperial study, but he ran into Liang Song, the left minister who was about to leave the hall. Liang Song stopped and saluted him, "I just heard that your highness is coming to look for your majesty. It just so happened that this humble minister took up your majesty's time. Your highness turned around." And went to Chaoyang Palace to pay respects to the empress, really filial piety!"

Xiao Xu glanced at him indifferently. The reason why Liang Song appeared here was probably that he was entrusted by his mother to block him in the imperial study, delaying his time to meet his father.

Xiao Xu slightly nodded at Liang Song, and passed him by.

Liang Song rubbed his chin, smiled like a fox, and stepped out of the palace.

At this moment, Emperor Xixuan just closed a memorial, and saw Xiao Xu walking in, so he put down his pen, his usually sharp eyes lost a little bit at this moment, but the remaining prestige was still there.

"I heard that you came to the palace to look for me today, why?" Emperor Xixuan asked casually with his hands folded on the desk.

Xiao Xu lowered his eyes, "I want to discuss border defense with my father."

These words made Emperor Xixuan raise his eyebrows, and a look of ambiguity flashed in his eyes, "Okay, it seems that you already have an idea, let's talk about it."

Time passed bit by bit in Xiao Xu's calm narration, and the last sentence fell, Emperor Xixuan stroked his beard and nodded, "Your thinking is very good, the proposed list of soldiers will go to the morning court in two days, and I will follow you." Discuss with the ministers."

Xiao Xu nodded in response.

The son in front of him is a dragon and phoenix among men. As a father, he should be proud and proud, but in the eyes of Emperor Xixuan, he couldn't agree with his proposal, because he didn't know how many people on this list were indebted to Xiao Xu Yes, in case something happens, the border will fall. To be on the safe side, I will not use the person Xiao Xu suggested.

Xiao Xu didn't know if he could see what Emperor Xixuan was thinking, but his expression was very calm.

"Xu'er, there is one thing here, and I need your help." Emperor Xixuan seemed to have remembered something, and said in a loving tone.

Xiao Xu cupped his hands, "Father, please tell me."

"This morning, I received a letter from Nancang Kingdom, saying that they will send envoys to Xixuan in the near future, and they also sent a princess who wanted to marry us, but I heard that the person who came this time , there are quite a few warriors from Nancang Kingdom, when the time comes, I need you to sit in the court and kill their vigor." Emperor Xixuan said slowly.

Since Nan Cang expressed his intention to make peace, he must be sincere. From ancient times to the present, it is a normal thing for the princess to make peace.

But this time, Nan Cang chose marriage.

Xiao Xu lowered his eyes, "My son knows."

Hearing his answer, Emperor Xixuan nodded with satisfaction, "Xu'er, you are the most outstanding among all the princes, you have done everything very well, and I believe you will do well this time. "

"I'm ashamed and dare not be my son." Xiao Xu replied calmly with his head bowed.

"Very good, then go back and rest, and bring Qingyan girl around the palace when you have time."

"Yes."

After Xiao Xu came out of the imperial study, he stood at the highest place in the palace, his eyes swept across the tall buildings below him, and his expression became slightly confused.

Fate is always playing tricks on him.

Following the cautious voice of the little father-in-law who followed him, he came back to his senses and walked down the steps step by step, looking very lonely.
