At Xiao Han's celebration banquet, His Majesty and his ministers greeted all the soldiers in front of the palace. It can be said that the emperor's grace is mighty. Some ministers who have made meritorious service were promoted to ranks, conferred the title of Jinsui Gong to Confucianism, and served as the Taibao of the Eastern Palace.

Xu Yuanqing listened to Liu Qian's explanation that His Majesty asked the crown prince to serve tea to Xiang Ru in person in front of civil and military officials, intending to let the Xiang family protect the crown prince's intentions. As for the post about impeachment of the Xiang family, he left it alone without mentioning it..

He propped his chin from side to side to listen to them, and finally gave them a conclusion, "So, not only is the crisis of the Xiang family resolved, but is it still the amulet chosen by His Majesty for the prince? Is your Majesty forcing Xiang's family to take sides?"

Liu Qian nodded, "Shen Qiwen is extravagant and licentious. He has deep grievances in the court and has countless remonstrances. Many ministers are waiting for the peace of northern Xinjiang, but at the celebration banquet, His Majesty made it clear that he will protect him. The situation in the court is changing rapidly.They were all broken."

"Tsk tsk tsk!" Zuo Yue clicked his tongue with contempt on his face, "Young prince, you must be so loud!"

Emperor Chongming's sons are weak, and now there are only four sons, the second prince died young, the third prince is stupid, and the fourth prince is still in his infancy.

Xu Yuanqing tapped the table with his fingertips, full of thoughts. Two days after the celebration banquet, Xuan Pinghou also told him that Emperor Chongming wanted to protect the crown prince, so that he would not mess around like before, otherwise he would implicate the palace.sister.

Emperor Chongming was not a mediocre monarch. In the early years, he fought for power with powerful officials. After taking power in Li Zhinian, he drastically rectified the court situation, gave the people a few years to live, and went to war with northern Xinjiang.

The absurdity of Shen Qi's essays has long been heard by the heavens. Everyone thought that the crown prince would not escape the liquidation when Xiang Jia returned to court, even Xu Yuanqing thought so.

He expected that Emperor Chongming would balance the power, but he only punished him with minor punishments, but he did not expect to protect the crown prince.

He didn't want to understand where it was, Xu Yuanqing's head hurt from thinking, and finally remembered Xin Zhengyuan, he didn't go to the celebration banquet, and vaguely thought of meeting in Zangbao Pavilion, his words "willingly".

"What is Xin Zhengyuan doing?"

Liu Qian: "There is no movement. I read books and drink tea at home every day. The people I meet are just sour scholars."

Xu Yuanqing raised his hand and rubbed his temples, he was negligent, although Xin Zhengyuan was born in the Huaiyang Xin family, but he was not a descendant, the son of a concubine was not taken seriously.

He once inquired that Xin Zhengyuan's biological mother died early, and he was not taken seriously as a concubine, let alone protected by him.Guards, the people and doctors in the courtyard can't be invited.

At that time, Empress Xian was still in her boudoir, and she personally invited a doctor to treat him, and reprimanded the servants for treating the young master harshly. Since then, Xin Zhengyuan's life has gradually improved. Later, he studied hard and asked questions, and Empress Xian always supported him.

For Xin Zhengyuan, this kindness is salvation.

So even though he knew that Shen Qiwen's virtue was at a disadvantage, he still tried his best to support him.

On the day when he and Shen Qiwen met the saint together, he must have said something, that's why Emperor Chongming protected the crown prince at the celebration banquet.

Seeing his frowning and melancholy appearance, Liu Qian asked aloud, "What? What do you suspect he did to let the emperor protect the crown prince?"

Xu Yuanqing had a headache after thinking about it, and now he couldn't move that side, and the situation was obviously frozen, so he simply made a decision, "It doesn't matter!"

If the enemy does not move, I will not move, he also has his own life to live.

Liu Qian was taken aback by his sudden energy, raised his eyebrows slightly, saw that he got up and tidied his appearance as if he was about to go out, before he could ask, Zuo Yue hurried to fetch the cloak, and urged, "I almost forgot,I'm afraid the third son has been waiting for a long time, let's hurry up."

Liu Qian was puzzled, "Do you have something to do?"

Zuo Yue stood on tiptoe and put on the cloak for Xu Yuanqing, and was about to tie the belt when he saw that the prince had already tied it up by himself, so he explained other things, "Well, I have an appointment with the third son, brother Liu Qian, please send the prince for a while,I'm going to ask Mrs.

Liu Qian was at a loss, he had no idea what they were going to do, why was it so sudden this time.

Zuo Yue had already jumped out with a smile all over his face. Seeing his beaming appearance, Xu Yuanqing thought it was some kind of happy event. He shook his head helplessly, seeing Liu Qian's bewildered appearance, raised his hand and patted himShoulder, "It seems that your fanboy climbed the wall."

"ah?"

On the carriage, Xu Yuanqing leaned against the wall of the carriage, looking for something to do when he had nothing to do, so he stared at Liu Qian.

With big eyes and a small pointed chin, Liu Qian has a fox face. His eyes are flat and round, and he always likes to hang down without being obsequious. If he didn't know that he killed people without leaving traces, but he looked like someone else's little girl.son.

In the original book, Liu Qian was always wearing a silver-white mask, so Xu Yuanqing always thought it was because of blemishes on his face. When he first saw him in the ruined temple, he thought he had found the wrong person.

Liu Qian was picking and choosing on the small table, and it took a long time before he fell in love with a small pastry. He raised his eyes to meet Xu Yuanqing's scrutinizing gaze, took a bite of the pastry and said, "I am not as good-looking as you. You look at me better than yourself."

He always spoke abruptly, Xu Yuanqing glanced at the pastry plate that he had messed up, slightly disgusted, continued to look at him out of sight and out of mind, teasing him, "I'm tired of looking at it, try another one."

Liu Qian gave a expressionless "tsk", swallowed the pastry, and took off the mask from his waist to play with, "Xiang Changyuan is pretty, you can look at him, I guess he would be happy to be looked at by you."

Xu Yuanqing: "Are you the roundworm in his stomach?"

Liu Qian clapped his hands to avoid arguing with him, and pushed open the small window to let in the wind, which poured into the car. Xu Yuanqing caught a gust of cold wind head-on and coughed a few times.

Seeing him coughing and looking for tea, and had no time to speak quickly, Liu Qian closed the small window and looked at him coughing expressionlessly.

Xu Yuanqing coughed with tears in his eyes. After he calmed down, he looked at him. Although he was expressionless, there was still a bit of smugness in his eyes. He knew that this kid did it on purpose.

He won't let him tease him at all!

Liu Qian was stared at by him resentfully for a few times, but he didn't respond, thinking: I'm not Xiang Changyuan.

The carriage wobbled to a stop in front of the Zangbao Pavilion, Xu Yuanqing lifted the curtain, and when he looked up, he saw Xiang Changyuan standing by the roadside, looking at him with a smile, if he had a tail, he might be able to shake it to the sky.

"..."

Xu Yuanqing was speechless for a while. Although he told him that he would come to the Treasure Pavilion, he should not be there. After all, His Majesty only mentioned Xiangru to enter the East Palace a few days ago.necessary trouble.

Seeing him frowning at him, Xiang Changyuan didn't intend to get out of the car, so he walked up to the side of the car, looked up at him slightly, and stretched out his hand to help him, "What's the matter?"

It wasn't once or twice that he was disobedient, Xu Yuanqing sank, his expression returned to normal, he pushed his hand away and got out of the car, "Didn't I tell you not to come?"

Xiang Changyuan took a look inside the car and followed Xu Yuanqing inside.

When he first stepped into the Treasure Pavilion, he was slightly taken aback. The store has been closed for more than half a month, and it has changed its appearance. The layout is different from before. There were a lot of miscellaneous products at the counter before. This time, the number of counters has been reduced, the space has become larger, and the display of the products has been more organized.regular.

The screen separates different types of products for easy shopping.

Xiang Changyuan looked at the surprised look in his eyes, tilted his head to look at him, and smiled at the corner of his mouth, "How is it?"

Xu Yuanqing glanced at him, but couldn't tell that Mr. Xiang was so thoughtful about it. He didn't hesitate to praise him, "There's something."

Xiang Changyuan got the compliment, undisguisedly happy, scratched his head and led the way, "Please."

The second floor is still full of clothing and jewelry, but it is more dazzling than before. This time, the display is elegant and artistic. Clothes and accessories are placed on each side, and a row of tables and chairs are placed in the middle for rest.

Xiang Changyuan asked him to sit down, shopkeeper Li brought tea, Xu Yuanqing took the tea and thanked him, put it on the small table, and looked around the arrangement. The last time saw Xin Zhengyuan, there was no change. It seems that it was reorganized not long ago.

He tentatively asked, "Your arrangement?"

Xiang Changyuan put down the teacup, "Is there something wrong?"

Hearing this, Xu Yuanqing shook his head, feeling pleasantly surprised. It seems that because his mother was coming to the Treasure Pavilion, the system was changed temporarily. He didn't know what to say about such a great kindness.

Seeing him not moving the teacup, Xiang Changyuan stood up when he heard shopkeeper Li said that someone had arrived, "My mother is here, do you want to see your son?"

"To make my mother happy, she will have to worry more if I'm here."

Xu Yuanqing stood up and followed him to the third floor. After reaching the third floor, Luo Shi went up to the second floor. Shopkeeper Li served him properly, serving tea and introducing the rare items in the pavilion.

After listening to Xiang Changyuan, he felt relieved.

The layout of the third floor has not been changed, Xu Yuanqing did not go to the private room, but the movement on the second floor can be heard from the corridor.

Xiang Changyuan stood on the porch like him, looking at him with his hands on the guardrail.

"This is your loss from closing the shop." Xu Yuanqing took out a stack of banknotes from his bosom, saw him excitedly raised his hand to signal him to shut up, and continued to take two more silver bills from his bosom, "This is for buying Yinyuqinmoney."

Xiang Changyuan looked at the banknotes in his two hands, lowered his eyes and smiled wryly, and pushed both of his hands back, "I'm joking with you about the loss, so you don't have to take it to heart. As for Yinyuqin, if you want me to call youShopkeeper Li will give you the title and send it to you."

"One yard is one yard. Although you trust me for no reason, I haven't made a heart-to-heart relationship with you. You can make it easy for me with tens of thousands of taels of silver. I really doubt that you have plans for me."

Xu Yuanqing's words were sincere, not just to let him accept the money, even if Liu Qian was working for him, he would ask a few more questions about why, Xiang Changyuan's kindness to him was really groundless.

Xiang Changyuan was a little anxious, "How could it be unreasonable? I told you the reason, but the prince doesn't remember?"

"Am I a good person?" Xu Yuanqing recalled the reason he said, and looked at him like a fool, "I don't accept a good person card."

After speaking, he forcefully handed the money to him, and asked Chang Yuan to hand it back quickly. Xu Yuanqing dexterously withdrew it and kicked him on the wrist holding the money, forcing him to withdraw it.

Xiang Changyuan refused to let go, blocked his hand, turned around and put the money back into his waist, Xu Yuanqing dodged like a loach smoothly, the two of them went back and forth a few times, the money was still the same.In the hands of Xiang Changyuan.

The two chased and dodged each other without brute force. Xiang Changyuan looked at him helplessly. Xu Yuanqing was panting slightly and didn't move for a long time, obviously unable to cope.

Xu Yuanqing stood still and raised his hand to signal a truce, "So you have plans for me?"

Back to the topic just now, Xiang Changyuan accepted it frankly, "Then you just think so."

Xiang Changyuan acted as if he would never give up if he didn't take money, Xu Yuanqing couldn't stand it any longer, and was ready to show his affection and reason, "Xiang Cannon Fodder..."

As soon as he opened his mouth, he heard a sound from downstairs. The two looked at each other, and looked downstairs at the same time without saying a word.

"The rouge in Madam's hand has been loved for a long time, I wonder if Madam can give up her love?"

The person who came was not Li Ying, but the currently recognized concubine—Lu Qiuling.

It was this kind of disgusting trick again, Luo Shi had a gentle temper, and when he saw what she wanted, he gave it to her.

There were only two people on the second floor, Luo Shi turned to look at other things, caught a string of hand beads, and was about to ask Li the shopkeeper Lu Qiuling came to his side again.

"Ah, these beads match the skirt that His Highness the Crown Prince gave me."

Luo Shi sighed: "If the princess likes it, give it to the princess."

Shopkeeper Li was also helpless, "This..."

That's all for one thing, but again and again, shopkeeper Li recommends better ones several times, and she insists on what Luo Shi likes, which is obviously a bully.

Lu Qiuling is used to being shameless, and is used to watching people order dishes. Luo's family followed Confucianism, and she was born as a concubine, but she couldn't be liked by Confucianism.is one of them.

Xiang Changyuan looked at Luo Shi's repeated forbearance, in exchange for making progress, it seemed that it was not once or twice, and he felt mixed feelings.

"My mother..."

Xu Yuanqing saw that his fists were clenched tightly, his eyes were red, and he was about to rush out, so he quickly raised his hand to hold him.

Xu Yuanqing heard from Li Ying several times that Luo Shi was alone in the capital, and was always bullied for his gentle nature. If it wasn't for her help, he might be slaughtered.

Xu Yuanqing comforted Xiang Changyuan, "I'll go."

If Lu Qiuling used to be, Xiang Changyuan would be fine, but now the crown prince who is obsessed with her is in full swing, and she can easily get the position of crown princess, so it is inevitable that Shen Qiwen will not be convulsed if he is annoyed.

One more thing is worse than one less thing, and he can just come forward for this matter.

Xu Yuanqing lifted his feet and went downstairs. He had already thought about how to get Lu Qiuling, when he heard a questioning, "What? Does the Princess want to buy everything in the Treasure Pavilion?"

It was Li Ying who came.
