The food at Lingfu Pavilion seems a bit lackluster.

King Xuan moved his chopsticks a few times and then put them down.

Liu Xiuyuan wondered: "I remember that a few years ago, you had a saying that Qiu Yuqi was pretty good, but why is it gone now?"

The shopkeeper lowered his head and whispered: "Our master doesn't like it."

Xue Qingyin blinked: "Brother, you don't like it?"

The shopkeeper nodded anxiously.

"It's strange. If he doesn't like it, he won't allow it in the store." Liu Xiuyuan thought to himself, he was really overbearing.

Xue Qingyin was not surprised at all.

This is very He Songning.

"Let's go, ask Mr. Liu to have something else to eat." Xue Qingyin stood up.

Don't keep her any longer to save everyone the embarrassment.

"What to eat?" Liu Xiuyuan asked curiously.

"Green rice."

"Is it the one next to the Di store in Xishi?"

"No, in Dongshi."

"That's because you haven't tried the one in the West Market. The green rice from that restaurant is more delicious."

"Yeah?"

Liu Xiuyuan looked much more enthusiastic. He raised his hand and brushed the hair on his face and said: "I don't know where the wine is good and the food is good in the city, but I know about it by half or six."

Xue Qingyin felt great.

This Mr. Liu can also be reused.

She said politely: "Please give me more advice, sir."

"I don't dare, I don't dare." Liu Xiuyuan stood in front of her and realized that his appearance was really not good, which somewhat tainted the beauty's eyes.

Listening to the two of them talking more and more enthusiastically, Du Hongxue couldn't help but glance at King Xuan's face again.

At this time, Xue Qingyin also looked at King Xuan, and she whispered: "Your Highness, please come with us?"

King Xuan glanced at Liu Xiuyuan first, and then said: "Yes."

Xue Qinghe couldn't say anything in the end, so he went to the kitchen to check whether the dishes were ready.

When she saw someone was about to leave, she stood up to see him off and whispered: "Sister."

Xue Qingyin paused and said, "Just do your thing."

As she said that, she glanced at Butler Xue: "What's the use of just sending someone to you?"

In the presence of King Xuan, Butler Xue did not dare to refute him at all.

After Xue Qingyin finished speaking, she quickly followed King Xuan's footsteps.

Xue Qinghe looked up in confusion and accidentally discovered a detail.

The cold and talkative His Royal Highness Prince Xuan seemed to have deliberately slowed down for a moment. He was waiting for Xue Qingyin to catch up.

After everyone had gone away, Qiu Xin finally dared to breathe heavily.

She said: "The big girl did it on purpose."

When Butler Xue heard this, he also became suspicious.

Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence? Why would I be here today?

Xue Qinghe hesitated and said: "No way?"

"The big girl has stolen all the limelight today." Qiu Xin said frustratedly, "She actually invited His Highness Prince Xuan, and that Liu Xiuyuan... How can we compare with her?"

Butler Xue can also be regarded as Xue Chengdong's confidant. He knows very well what Xue Chengdong is going to do this time.

So he hesitated for a moment and said: "Second girl, don't worry, this is just the beginning. There are only two stores now, and there will be many properties in the future, which may all be handed over to the second girl."

Qiu Xin came back to her senses and quietly pulled Xue Qinghe and said: "Second girl, it seems that today is not necessarily a bad thing. The weaker you are in front of the eldest girl, the more pitiful you are. In order to support you and the eldest girl in the ring, I will give you more

A lot of chips.”

Xue Qinghe felt very uncomfortable after hearing this.

She stood in front of the railing and looked downstairs.

She could see the dissatisfaction with her on the shopkeeper's face.

Is this what she wants?

Xue Qinghe thought in a daze.

She hopes that her father sincerely wants to care about her, rather than the cold balance of interests mentioned by Qiu Xin.

Liu Xiuyuan was also talking about Xue Qinghe in this room.

"Is that Miss Xue's sister?" he asked.

Xue Qingyin deserved to be free: "Well, it's not the same mother."

"No wonder, the temperaments are so different. Is she here to take over the property here today?"

"Um."

"Why don't you, Your Majesty, hand over this Lingxi Pavilion to you?"

"It's because I'm too busy." Xue Qingyin said perfunctorily.

King Xuan glanced at her.

Even Du Hongxue secretly thought that Miss Xue didn't mention it when she was wronged. This was obviously Shilang Xue deliberately "punishing" her.

"Don't eat Qingjing rice today." King Xuan said suddenly.

Liu Xiuyuan opened his mouth and then closed it, not daring to refute.

Du Hongxue also said at the side: "Mr. Liu looks like this, so you should go back and freshen up first."

Liu Xiuyuan's face was slightly red, and he bowed and said: "Yes. Farewell to His Highness King Xuan. And... Miss Xue."

Du Hongxue thought to herself that you talk too much, and you even went out of your way to say goodbye to Miss Xue!

But if you think about it carefully, this is out of etiquette and is beyond reproach.

After Liu Xiuyuan left, Xue Qingyin sat back in the carriage. She asked curiously: "Is this Mr. Liu suffering from bad luck? Why does he keep falling?"

King Xuan looked at her without speaking.

Xue Qingyin blinked: "Can't I ask?"

"I can ask," said King Xuan. "He took the wrong medicine when he was young, and his brain was not clear enough, so he would inevitably bump and fall."

Xue Qingyin's eyes flashed with suspicion: "Seriously?"

Why does this sound like there's something wrong with cursing someone's brain?

For a moment, Du Hongxue even suspected that their prince did it on purpose.

Prince Xuan: "...Seriously. The Liu family is a large clan with a lot of fights. When Liu Xiuyuan was young, he was too conspicuous. He took the wrong medicine and his clan members sent it to his bedside."

Having said this, King Xuan couldn't help but pause.

Xue Qingyin was poisoned in her womb.

Liu Xiuyuan was drugged when he was young.

It sounds like the two people have similar life experiences... King Xuan could almost imagine that Liu Xiuyuan and Xue Qingyin would say something like "You and I share the same problem."

"Is it the Liu family?"

"Well, she is the legitimate daughter of the second wife of the Liu family."

I didn’t expect that we are still related to each other here.

Xue Qingyin sighed in her heart.

"Miss Xue is very concerned about Liu Xiuyuan?" King Xuan suddenly said.

"Everyone has curiosity." Xue Qingyin smacked her lips and answered generously.

This topic has been discussed.

"Are you going anywhere else today?" Xue Qingyin asked.

King Xuan asked her: "Where else does Miss Xue want to go?"

Xue Qingyin paused and said, "If I want to go somewhere, will Your Highness accompany me?"

King Xuan looked at her and said, "No."

Xue Qingyin nodded and said: "I know that His Highness is busy with military affairs..."

King Xuan followed closely and said: "But if you only pick one place, you can go. Two or three will not work."

Xue Qingyin swallowed all her unfinished words immediately.

The carriage was extremely quiet for a moment.

Xue Qingyin took a deep breath, but she couldn't help it anymore.

She asked her biggest doubt in the past few days: "His Highness treats me like this, and he doesn't care what others think about our relationship. Is it because His Highness... plans to marry me?"

Du Hongxue, who was outside, vaguely heard the sound. He didn't dare to listen anymore, so he quickly deliberately took a few steps behind and distanced himself from the carriage.

Inside the carriage.

A light flashed across King Xuan's eyes quickly.

She did not ask "Does Your Highness like me?"

Instead, just ask "Do you want to marry me?"

She was obviously very sober.

King Xuan moved his lower lip: "Miss Xue, are you willing to be a concubine?"

Xue Qingyin was shocked.

It actually means that!

The number of heirs among the saints today is not abundant. The only adult and promising sons are King Wei and King Xuan.

When the emperor chose wives and concubines for them, of course he would not decide casually.

With the current status of the Xue family, it’s not surprising that the position of concubine is not theirs!

It would be too naive to talk about monogamy to the ancients, especially to the royal family.

At that moment, Xue Qingyin thought a lot.

She raised her eyes and looked at King Xuan and said, "Can I ask Your Highness who the princess is?"

King Xuan was waiting to speak.

The carriage suddenly stopped.

It turned out that he had already returned to the Xu family.

At this time, another carriage also stopped in front of Xu's house.

The noble man in the car raised the curtain and asked, "Where is your cousin?"

"My cousin said she went to deal with matters at Zhuangzi." The servant responded and turned to look. When he saw it, he immediately said: "He's back! It was this carriage that picked up my cousin just now!"

The carriage looked inconspicuous, and there were no special markings around it.

"Lean over." The noble man in the car whispered.

The driver drove the carriage and it was approaching immediately.

"Qingyin." He called in a low voice, his voice suppressed and painful.

Xue Qingyin on the carriage here was startled.

Listen, why, it sounds a bit like... King Wei's voice?

"For the past two days, I have been tossing and turning, unable to sleep day and night. I don't know how to face you." King Wei's tone was difficult.

Xue Qingyin opened her mouth to say, why don't we just stop seeing each other?

But King Wei didn't give her a chance to interrupt.

He followed up and said: "I never expected that my father would actually point out Qiao's daughter and Liu's daughter to me in the end. I can't afford to kneel in front of my father, but I can't beg you either."

Xue Qingyin: "..."

How embarrassing, brother.

You are outside.
