Xie Fu was thinking about it, when an urgent voice came from outside the courtyard: "Your Majesty, it's bad, all the dishes prepared in the kitchen have disappeared."
Qin Chuzhenjing was silent for a long time, and then his voice came: "Why don't you prepare again!"
Xie Fu smiled and suddenly had an idea. His act of stealing red leaves had the effect of luring the snake out of its hole unintentionally.
Normally, it's not a big deal if someone steals something.
But this is Prince Qi's Mansion. In addition to the guards on the surface, there must be experts in Prince Qi's Mansion secretly.
Under this premise, if you can steal food silently without being discovered, you can also silently threaten the safety of the palace.
If it were him, what would he do? Naturally, he would pull out his trump card and invite a master like Su Zaomou to take charge of Tantai Mansion...
Hongye suddenly appeared in front of Xie Fu silently.
Xie Fu was shocked. Hongye's figure was originally like a strong and plump horse, but now his waist and slender belly were bulging, turning him into a fat man.
Xie Fu stretched out his hand to wipe the oil stains on her mouth and said with a smile: "I don't forget to wipe my mouth when I eat secretly."
Hongye burped loudly: "It's delicious. I'm full."
In front of Xie Fu, Hong Ye is like a simple little sister, which even makes Xie Fu feel stupid. If he has the most innocent thoughts towards anyone, it is Hong Ye in front of him.
He took out the piece of stolen mutton and said, "I stole a piece of mutton for you."
Hongye's eyes lit up, but he burped again: "But I'm full."
"Forget it."
As soon as Xie Fu finished speaking, Hongye reached out and snatched the mutton away. He opened his mouth and swallowed the whole piece of meat, preferring to eat it rather than put it away.
It could be seen that Hongye was feeling very uncomfortable, and he suddenly said: "I have thought about it, and I will sleep in the same room with you tonight."
For other women, Xie Fu might shirk it, but Hongye really didn't care and just smiled.
"Madam told me that it is not convenient for you to attack others, so I must protect you carefully and stay with you."
Although Sima Yuntai regarded herself as a cauldron and used Dongzimen Kungfu to treat his hidden illness, Xie Fu was still in a critical period of recuperation. She also repeatedly warned Xie Fu that unless his life was in danger, he must not do anything with others, otherwise all the previous efforts would be wasted.
.
Xie Fu's current situation is that he has martial arts but cannot use it. Once he uses it, he will suffer backlash.
It's both blame and thanks to Fu who took advantage of his own vitality and repeatedly risked his life. If he were a normal person, he would have died countless times.
Xie Fu whispered: "Hongye, please come here."
Hongye put her ear close, and Xie Fu lowered his voice and said, "I have something to do for you. You go and monitor Qin Chuzhen to see who he comes in contact with, especially martial arts masters."
Hongye was stunned for a moment: "Then what will you do if you don't have my protection?"
Xie Fu smiled and said: "It's not convenient for me to fight with others, but it's not that I can't fight with others."
Hongye said stupidly: "That's good."
Xie Fu sighed, seeing Hong Ye's silly look, but felt that she was not capable of doing this kind of thing.
Hongye saw through it immediately and said, "Brother, don't worry, I have done things for the second master before and I have never failed."
Xie Fu said happily: "That's good."
Then he gave a special instruction: "You must not rely on your martial arts prowess. If you encounter a strong enemy, put your personal safety first. After all, this is Chang'an, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon."
Hongye smiled sweetly: "Brother, you are different from the second master."
"You are my sister, even if your skin is cut, I will feel distressed."
It wasn't until five quarters in the afternoon that Qin Chuzhen prepared a banquet to welcome Master Xie.
Seeing that only Xie Fu came, he asked: "Where is Miss Hongye?"
"I asked her to do something."
Qin Chuzhen didn't ask any more questions. He invited Xie Fu to take a seat and chatted about every detail of Chang'an while eating...
The spring sun was setting in the west, and Gu Liuqing was looking down at a jade pendant in his hand. His expression was sometimes resolute, sometimes sad, and his mouth was sometimes smiling, sometimes dejected...
Xie Fu's voice suddenly came: "Did he give it to me?"
Gu Liuqing was startled and stood up suddenly. Seeing that it was Xie Fu, he was a little flattered and said, "Young Master."
When alone, Gu Liuqing used to call Fu Xie his son, omitting his last name to show respect.
Xie Fu smiled: "I'm a little worried about you, so I came to see you."
He said in a joking tone: "If you are not good, I will be beaten by Xianting when I go back."
Gu Liuqing smiled sweetly: "Thank you for your concern, sir."
Seeing that Xie Fu was still standing at the door, he quickly stepped forward and said, "Sir, please come in."
Xie Fu stepped into the room generously and said, "Mrs. Gu, I have the audacity to treat you as half a relative and will not avoid suspicion."
Gu Liuqing smiled and said, "Sir, you are out of sight."
Xie Fu scanned the room lightly: "Well, the room is very nice, better than staying in Tantai Mansion. There are people to take care of you, so you don't have to wait for others."
Gu Liuqing smiled: "I am lucky to be able to serve the young master and Mrs. Ting."
Xie Fu smiled harshly: "You have to get used to it gradually. For example, after I have been served by others for a long time, I no longer know how to serve others."
Gu Liuqing was confused, and Xie Fu laughed at himself: "I was just a slave before, not much better than you."
Gu Liuqing's heart warmed. The young master is really a considerate person. He always thinks about others. "Sir, please sit down quickly."
Fu Xie sat down, but Gu Liuqing was still standing, busy serving tea and water to Fu Xie. Now that he had recognized Qin Chuzhen, he still regarded Fu Xie as his master and respected him extremely.
Xie Fu raised his hand and said: "Don't be busy, sit down and say, if you keep doing this, I will be embarrassed to come next time."
Gu Liuqing then sat down solemnly.
Xie Fu said: "I don't have anything to do. I just came to see if you are happy."
Gu Liuqing said calmly: "I'm happy."
Xie Fu knew that she was concerned about her son's safety, so even if she was happy to reunite with Qin Chuzhen, she would still be worried.
"The second thing is to tell you everything. I have talked with Brother Qin and I probably know who is behind the scenes. I will be able to bring the child back soon."
Gu Liuqing blurted out and asked: "Who is it?"
Xie Fu did not answer her question and continued: "This is a man's business. Even if you, a weak woman, are worried, it is in vain. Do you understand?"
Gu Liuqing nodded: "Yeah."
Xie Fu saw her holding the jade pendant tightly at this time and asked, "Is this jade pendant given by Brother Qin?"
Gu Liuqing shook his head.
He thanked Fu and didn't ask any more questions. Gu Liuqing took the initiative and said, "My father gave this to me."
Xie Fu knew that her father was a medicine expert, and because the doctor killed a harem concubine Jieyu, the men in the family were sent to the army and the women became prostitutes.
It can be said that families are broken up, people are separated from each other and we cannot see each other.
He expressed relief: "Your status is very different now. Let Brother Qin come up with a reason to come forward and bring your father back and find a place to take care of himself."
It was impossible to come back and continue to be an official, but Qin Chuzhen was the prince and had many methods to bring people back from exile.
For example, when there are major events and festivals, the emperor will grant amnesty to the world and add people to the list, and the people will come back.
"But he's dead!"
Xie Fu was slightly surprised. If he died...
Gu Liuqing's expression was solemn at this moment, not sad at all: "When he was in prison, my father hanged himself. How could he be insulted like this!"
