Empress Jinghua: The eunuch is nine thousand years old

Chapter 228
"What does His Highness Changsun think of this incident?"

There was a person in the room with his arms folded by his shoulders, with a curly beard and a messy beard. He seemed a little unrestrained and unrestrained. This person was one of Xia Qixuan's advisers.

Xia Qixuan was wearing a heavy gold brocade fox fur coat, sitting with his legs spread apart, his upper body leaning down slightly, placing a pair of slender hands on top of the chimney, and slowly rubbing them.

"There is nothing to discuss about this matter. The grandson of the emperor, the crown prince, and uncle are not some stupid pigs. It is impossible to do any stupid things that kill the king and father at this juncture. Besides, didn't you say it too, De After the imperial concubine made some plans, the grandpa turned the matter into a big deal, if there is no real evidence to prove his innocence, how could the prince and uncle be let go with the temperament of the grandpa."

Ming Shengdi is a person who can't rub the sand in his eyes. As long as there is a little thing that happens to Xia Qin that is not good for him, he will keep it in his heart, so this time even if Concubine De proves Xia Qin's innocence, this matter will not be ignored. It will be stuck in Ming Shengdi's heart like a pimple.

The orange-red seedlings in the chimney danced enthusiastically. Xia Tian looked at the burning sparks in the corner and poked them casually with long tweezers.

"It's just that I don't know which side the prince offended this time, and he stumbled." The bearded counselor laughed in a low voice, "The Sa family has never been used to the prince's self-righteous appearance. , I thought that the next successor king didn't run away, and acted quite arrogantly, how can it be compared with our eldest grandson!"

The other counselors echoed, more or less people here have considered Xia Qin in advance when choosing the master. After all, he is the prince, and he is more likely to become king in the future, but Xia Qin is not a good person to serve. The lord is also very harsh on the counselors, so many people turn to Xia Qixuan's command, and there is more or less resentment towards Xia Qin in their hearts.

Xia Qixuan is different from Xia Qin, he is very self-aware and has his own thoughts.Although he recruited these counselors to advise him, the final decision was always his own, and he would never be influenced by others.

At this time, Xia Qixuan just smiled faintly when he heard everyone's praise for him, tightened his jacket a little, adjusted a comfortable posture and leaned on the back of the soft chair.

"Uncle Huang, he didn't offend a certain force, but offended a woman who must never be offended."

"Woman? Who?" The bearded counselor scratched his head and asked, unavoidably puzzled, "I've never heard of a woman with such great ability!"

Xia Qixuan pursed his lips and remained silent, lowered his head to pick up the Longjing tea on the table, lifted the lid of the pure white glaze cup, squeezed the small handle to scrape off the tea foam on the edge of the cup, and smacked slowly Drink carefully.

This bearded counselor joined Xia Qixuan's command only recently, so he was a little unclear about what happened before, but the middle-aged man in a flower robe and the old man with white hair who had stayed by Xia Qixuan's side for a longer time looked at each other and smiled, understanding what Xia Qixuan meant. .

"Your Highness, the Crown Prince has completely offended Xia Shengqing. According to Xia Shengqing's temperament, he will never help the Crown Prince again in the future. Shall we throw an olive branch at him now?"

Xia Qixuan took two sips of tea and shook his head slightly. If he could not wait to win over Xia Shengqing now, his intention would be too obvious. He managed to get a little closer in front of Xia Zijin. At this time, rushing to win over Xia Shengqing will definitely make Xia Zijin suspicious. His previous intentions were not worth the candle.

"No matter how many people try to win over that Xia Shengqing, my grandson didn't have any friendship with him before, so it's really not appropriate to show his face at this time."

"That……"

"Let's stick to the original plan and talk about other things after establishing a good relationship with Princess Mingzhu." Xia Qixuan said with deep eyes.

This Xia Zijin was indeed very charming. He originally thought that Xia Shengqing cared about her because she was his fiancée. No matter how deep his affection was, it was impossible for him to risk everything.

But he actually underestimated the friendship between the two of them.

"The emperor's grandson's good emperor's uncle is really a bad guy. If Xia Shengqing is such a useful chess piece, he won't win him over and treat him properly, but let him slip out of his hands for nothing. If it wasn't for his own cleverness and wanting to control Xia Shengqing In his hands, but turning his head to deal with Princess Mingzhu in a desperate way, I am afraid that this prince will have to wait a little longer to win Xia Shengqing over."

The temperature of the Longjing tea in his palm was just right, Xia Qixuan fiddled with the lid, raised his eyebrows at the middle-aged man in a flowered robe and asked, "I told you to stare at that asafoetida, how is it going?"

The man in the flower robe clasped his hands and reported: "His Royal Highness, Ah Wei and the maid of Princess Mingzhu have been doing very well these days. I heard that the two of them went to the market privately two days ago. Ah Wei seems to be very interested in this. This woman is very caring, and she is already preparing for the dowry and birthday, and I want to beg your Highness to propose another marriage for him after I have fully prepared."

"It's so good." Xia Qixuan laughed loudly.

I don't know if it's the heavens helping him, or it's a coincidence between the world, he has encountered it all over and over again.

This Awei was originally an unknown bodyguard under him. One day by chance, he heard that Awei's whereabouts were suspicious, and he had been looking for a woman.

At first he thought it was just an excuse for A Wei to do something shady behind his back, but after careful investigation, he found that the woman he was looking for was actually Princess Pearl's maid.

God really helped him, he was still having a headache on how to make friends with Xia Zijin, but Ah Wei appeared in front of him with this perfect opportunity, so that the following things happened, which he expected.

"You keep watching the exchanges between Awei and Princess Mingzhu's maid, and if there is any movement between the two of them, report it to the emperor and grandson immediately."

The man in the flower robe nodded yes.

The next thing he has to do is to watch the outcome, and when the marriage between Asa Wei and that Xiaokui is completed, then there will be an inseparable relationship between him and Xia Zijin.

"Princess Mingzhu, Princess Mingzhu, my grandson has put all his treasures on you. In the future, you must not let my grandson down."

Xia Qixuan's deep and delicate voice was mixed with the crackling charcoal fire.He picked up the unfinished cup of Longjing tea in his hand, lifted the lid of the cup and poured all the tea in the cup into the brazier, and there was a popping sound in an instant, soaking a large area of ​​sparks.

And his thin lips curled up, with a meaningful smile.

These days, Moshengyuan seems to be a little deserted than before. The days are getting colder and people don’t like to move around. After autumn, most of the flowers and plants in the yard are withered, and they lose their former flourishing. vitality.

Xia Zijin stood in the yard, looking up at the withered, yellow and curly vines, with the cool wind brushing against her temples, she felt that the scene was rather sad.

"Princess, it's almost time to eat, can you ask the small kitchen to prepare first?"

Xiao Huanzi reminded from behind her, and gently put the cloak in his hand on Xia Zijin.

Xia Zijin nodded, and said casually: "Let Xiaokui hand over the blood-nourishing and qi-enriching medicinal materials that my father gave me two days ago to the small kitchen, and spend a while, and then the princess will deliver it to Shengqing in person later. "

Xiaohuanzi scratched his head: "That...princess...Xiaokui hasn't come back yet!"

"Why, didn't she go out in the afternoon to deliver anti-fetal medicine to Huiru's sister-in-law for the princess? It's been almost three hours, and she came back even if she had to walk."

Xiao Huanzi spread his hands, he didn't know this, he and Xiaokui took turns to do whatever the master told him before, and sometimes Xiaokui would play tricks and force him to give it to him, but these days she is It's strange to take all the work when you get the chance.

"Look, she came back just as she was talking."

Xiao Huanzi pouted at the figure trotting towards the door, Xia Zijin raised his eyebrows and looked over, only to see Xiaokui running in panting, her small face a little red because of her shortness of breath.

"Good girl, where did you go to have fun?" Xia Zijin asked her teasingly, a pair of smart eyes glanced at Xiaokui's slightly dirty clothes, and sharply saw a lot of grass clippings stuck to the fabric.

Xiaokui never thought that Xia Zijin was waiting for her behind the door, blinked her round eyes for a moment, and said softly, "No... no fun..."

She said this, and then twisted her fingertips and babbled like a mosquito: "I just ran into Ah Wei on the road... accompanied him to the western suburbs for a couple of walks."

The grass and trees are flying in the western suburbs, and the hillside is wide and vast. It is most suitable for horse riding and enjoying the feeling of galloping horses and the cold wind in this winter.That's how the grass clippings stuck to Xiaokui's clothes came about.

Xia Zijin nodded, and waved to Xiaokui. Xiaokui pursed her lips and bowed her head, but Xia Zijin suddenly lowered her body and straightened her body with both hands, her eyes sparkling.

"Good girl, you tell this princess honestly, but now you have completely put your heart into it?"

Xia Zijin asked her this question last time, so she naturally knew what Xia Zijin was referring to.

Last time Xiaokui denied it with a blushing face, but this time Xiaokui indeed nodded with a blushing face.

"Princess...Although you have said that you don't know whether Awei is sincere or not to Xiaokui, Xiaokui also doubted it, but after getting along these days, Xiaokui can truly feel that Awei has feelings for Xiaokui. Well, when Xiaokui is sad, Ah Wei will try every means to make Xiaokui happy, and when he is happy, he will rejoice with him."

"He has never asked for anything from Xiaokui. Even if Xiaokui sometimes loses his temper with him, he accepts it completely... He is really the best and best person to Xiaokui other than the princess!"
