Naturally, Xuan Shaoqi came to Feng Qingchen not only because of the rumors from outside, he also brought a very powerful and practical news.
Feng Qingchen's aunt, Xuan Shaoqi's stepmother Lu Yiran, when she was half crazy, broke a big news, which was the biggest secret of the pirate Lu family.
The Lu family were actually ministers of the previous dynasty. In the name of pirates, they went to the sea to find out information for the previous dynasty. One generation of the Lu family's head was even buried in the imperial mausoleum.
The Lu family had a wooden box given by the emperor. The wooden box was only passed down to heirs from generation to generation. After the Lu family was exterminated, the box fell into the hands of Feng Qingchen's mother, Lu Yimo.
"She said that the box hid the secret of the treasure from the previous dynasty." In the past, Xuan Shaoqi would never have taken his stepmother's crazy words to heart, but now there are rumors about the treasure from the previous dynasty.
Based on the principle of caution, Xuan Shaoqi made a trip in person.
"I opened the box." Feng Qingchen whispered.
Xuan Shaoqi was stunned for a moment, then smiled carelessly: "It turns out you already knew. If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have had to rush here."
Sensing the disappointment in Xuan Shaoqi's words, Feng Qingchen quickly said: "Shaoqi, I'm sorry, I didn't mean not to say it, it's just..."
Before Feng Qingchen finished speaking, he was interrupted by Xuan Shaoqi: "It's okay, this kind of thing really shouldn't be said to outsiders. A common man is not guilty, but he is guilty of carrying a jade. Looking at the fate of the new city lord of Liancheng, just
We know how crazy the Three Kingdoms were about the treasures of the previous dynasty. It’s safest if you don’t tell them.”
To say that he doesn't mind at all is definitely a lie. Xuan Shaoqi does feel a little uncomfortable in his heart, but it's understandable. When it comes to his family and life, Qingchen really shouldn't tell outsiders. He is also an outsider because of Qingchen.
That’s all.
"It's not that I don't believe you, nor do I treat you as an outsider, it's just that... knowing this matter will not only do you no good, but will actually lead to death." Sometimes, knowing too many secrets is not a good thing.
Happy things.
"I know. I came here in person because I was afraid that the news would be leaked and I would cause death for you. You don't have to worry about Xuanxiao Palace. I have sealed my mouth and no one will leak a word. By the way, that Mu
Don't throw away the box. The woman said that the wooden box is made of special materials. Only with it can you go in safely." In fact, he was only a little concerned about it. After all, he couldn't be with Feng Qingchen in everything.
explain.
"It turns out that wooden box has a special purpose." Feng Qingchen's eyes lit up and he said gratefully: "Shaoqi, thank you for bringing me this important news." Feng Qingchen said sincerely, thank you Xuan.
Shaoqi’s understanding.
"Why should we be so polite between you and me?" Xuan Shaoqi smiled, not hiding his love for Feng Qingchen.
Generous and natural, as he said himself, he treated Feng Qingchen as his own sister to pamper and love.
Feng Qingchen's nose felt sour and she couldn't say a word...
She was really worried just now that Shaoqi would become estranged from her because of this incident, but it seemed that was not the case now.
Xuan Shaoqi came all the way here, so it was naturally impossible for him to leave after finishing his conversation. Feng Qingchen was in a good mood after receiving a useful piece of news, and called the housekeeper to arrange for Xuan Shaoqi to stay.
"Shaoqi, I have something important to do and I have to go out for a while. I'll find you later." Seeing Shaoqi, Feng Qingchen had a good idea, but she had to listen to the advice of Uncle Nine Emperors first.
Xuan Shaoqi roughly guessed that what Feng Qingchen said should be related to the wooden box, so he nodded and let Feng Qingchen go and leave him alone.
When Uncle Nine Emperors left in the morning, he said that he would be in the palace all day today, so Feng Qingchen asked the coachman to take her directly into the palace. But when they heard that Feng Qingchen wanted to see Uncle Nine Emperors, the palace people were dumbfounded.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty did not enter the palace today."
"Not entering the palace?" Feng Qingchen raised his eyebrows in surprise. Didn't he say this morning that he wanted to come to the palace to settle government affairs?
As soon as the palace man heard this, he knew that he had said the wrong thing. With a cold sweat on his face, he stammered: "Come, I came once and left again... I left very early."
"Did you say where you are going?" Feng Qingchen frowned. There is no need to ask about the whereabouts of Uncle Nine Emperors in the capital. During the day, he is either in the palace or in the Nine Princes' Mansion, and his whereabouts are rarely unknown.
"No, no, I don't know." The palace man was so frightened that his legs were shaking. Feng Qingchen couldn't bear to embarrass him and asked the driver to turn the horse around and go to the Ninth Prince's Mansion, but there was still no one there.
"You don't know where Uncle Nine Emperors went?" Feng Qingchen stared at the housekeeper, trying hard to find any traces on his face.
The housekeeper shook his head sternly: "As for the girl, I really don't know. The prince is very busy during this time. He must have gone out with some adult."
This kind of thing was also possible. Feng Qingchen stopped asking. Thinking of Xuan Shaoqi in the house, Feng Qingchen couldn't bear to wait in Jiuwang's house for a long time, so she asked the housekeeper to tell Jiuhuang Uncle that she had something important to see him.
The housekeeper repeatedly said yes, but by the time Uncle Nine Emperors came to find Feng Qingchen, it was already midnight.
Feng Qingchen was sleeping soundly, but was woken up by Uncle Nine Emperors. He muttered dissatisfiedly: "Where are you going? I can't find anyone all day long."
Feng Qingchen almost never inquired about the whereabouts of Uncle Nine Emperors. Suddenly hearing these words, Uncle Nine Emperors frowned and asked dissatisfiedly: "Are you checking my whereabouts?"
With a cold tone and hint of dissatisfaction, Feng Qingchen suddenly woke up and looked at Uncle Nine Emperors in disbelief: "What do you mean by this? Can't I just ask?"
What happened to Uncle Nine Emperors?
"Okay." Uncle Nine Emperors also noticed that his tone was wrong, but he couldn't help but apologize, so he just pursed his lips and said nothing.
Feng Qingchen originally just asked casually, but hearing that Uncle Nine Emperors was so concerned, Feng Qingchen actually wanted to ask: "Then can you tell me now, where have you been all day today?"
"Temple." Uncle Nine Emperors did not hide anything, but this answer made Feng Qingchen startled: "Are you going to ask for the Empress Dowager?" Feng Qingchen had a bad feeling in his heart.
"Yeah." Uncle Nine Emperors looked at Feng Qingchen, his deep eyes were like deep valleys with no bottom.
Feng Qingchen knew that she couldn't show anything at this time. Even if she felt uneasy, Feng Qingchen just smiled and didn't answer, pretending to be natural and said: "She is your mother, you should go see her. By the way.
...Shaoqi is here and brings us a very important news."
"Don't you want to know what she said to this king?" Uncle Nine Emperors ignored the second half of the sentence and insisted on asking Feng Qingchen.
Feng Qingchen frowned slightly and said: "There is no need to tell me the conversation between your mother and son, I don't want to know." Instinctively, Feng Qingchen felt that Mrs. Min would not say anything nice.
"Are you afraid?" Uncle Nine Emperors stretched out his hand to pull Feng Qingchen, but Feng Qingchen dodged it: "Yes, I am afraid. I am afraid of your mother. I am afraid that she will harm me again. I don't want to
Be her stepping stone."
"Since you are afraid, you don't have to see her."
"I didn't plan to see her in the first place." Feng Qingchen turned away, not wanting Uncle Nine Emperors to see her furious look. Naturally, she also missed the flash of shock and confusion in Uncle Nine Emperors' eyes...
