Entering inside, the three guards were no longer there. Xianyue was talking to Qi Kuan. When he saw her coming back, he hurriedly waved and said: "Come here and tell me, of the three guards just now, which one do you have the most impression on?"
Better."
A Luo suddenly became embarrassed when he heard this, "I just took a quick glance at you, and I can't even remember the appearance. I don't have any impression."
"You!" Xia Yue shook her head slightly and said: "I, Qi Kuan and others all think that the guard who was standing on the right before is the best. He can answer questions appropriately and is good at literature and martial arts. As for his background, he is average.
A little, but not bad. If you marry him, you won't feel wronged."
A Luo blushed and said, "His... name?"
"Kui Lin comes from the Tong Jia clan." Xianyue paused for a moment and said, "What do you mean?"
"Slave..." For some reason, A Luo suddenly remembered the guard he met before and blurted out: "Master, do you know a guard named Zhong Qi?"
"Zhong Qi?" Xianyue thought for a moment, shook her head and said, "I have no impression of you. What's wrong? Do you know this person?"
"Well, when I went out just now, I accidentally bumped into this person. After talking to him for a few words, I thought this person was quite good."
Hearing this, Xianyue revealed a narrow smile, "When you say that, it seems like you are interested in this person?"
A Luo's face turned red and he said, "My slave never said that. We just chatted for a few words, so I just said it casually."
Xianyue did not tease her again, but took her hand and said: "Don't be shy, if you really think this person is good, how about I send someone to inquire about it?"
Her words made A Luo's face blush even more, but he still nodded slightly. Xianyue turned to Qi Kuan and said: "You can find a way to go to the guard camp to inquire about Zhong Qi's situation. If it is indeed good, I will go and talk to the emperor."
explain."
Qi Kuan followed his instructions and came to the guard camp. After some inquiries, they all said that Zhong Qi was gentle and righteous to his friends. Qi Kuan had also met Zhong Qi from a distance. Judging from his appearance, he was indeed pretty good.
Just after Qi Kuan left the guard camp, someone called him from behind. Qi Kuan looked back and recognized that the person who came was none other than one of the guards he had just seen, but he had never spoken.
Qi Kuan bowed slightly and said, "My lord, I wonder why you called this servant?"
The latter came to Qi Kuan and said hesitantly: "Eunuch Qi, are you asking about Zhong Qi because of Miss A Luo?"
Qi Kuan lowered his head and said, "Yes, I made you laugh."
Many people in the palace knew about Xianyue's desire to marry A Luo. In addition, today's summoning of three guards to Yanxi Palace meant even more people knew about it, so Qi Kuan did not hide it.
After listening to Qi Kuan's answer, the guard's expression became more hesitant and he did not speak for a long time. Qi Kuan did not want to delay any more and said: "If your Excellency has no other instructions, I will leave first."
"Wait a minute." Seeing Qi Kuan about to leave, the guard quickly called him, and then gritted his teeth and said: "I shouldn't have said these words, but if I don't say them, I'm afraid I will feel sorry for myself for the rest of my life. Please tell Xian
Concubine, Zhong Qi...is not a person worthy of being entrusted with your life."
"Why do you say that?" Qi Kuan asked doubtfully. The information he got from other guards said that Zhong Qi was a very good person, so why did he change after hearing this person's mouth?
"Because..." The guard seemed unwilling to say this, so he kept hesitating. After a while, he finally said: "Zhong Qi likes gambling very much, and even did something disgusting for it, so he invited Concubine Xian to do it."
Consider it carefully.”
"Good at gambling?" Qi Kuan suddenly frowned and said, "If he really has this hobby, why didn't anyone mention it just now? Or..." He did not continue, but the eyes that kept looking at the guards were already there.
It showed his doubts.
The guard guessed what he meant and said: "What I said is the truth. If you really don't believe it, there is nothing I can do about it." At this point, he cupped his hands and said, "Goodbye!"
Qi Kuan didn't expect him to leave immediately, so he quickly called to the guard who had turned around and said, "Wait a minute, may I ask this gentleman his name?"
The guard paused, then turned around and said, "My name is Fu Heng, and my surname is... Fucha."
When Qi Kuan told Xianyue the words "Fu Cha Fu Heng", the latter was shocked and said: "Fu Heng...isn't this the Queen's biological younger brother?"
Qi Kuan was startled and blurted out: "He...he is the Queen's younger brother?"
After Xianyue calmed down, she shook the fan in her hand and said slowly: "Yes, I have heard the emperor talk about Fu Heng, but the emperor admired him very much and said that this person will become a great person in the future. The Queen's family is really
It's incredible, father and uncle are the pillars of the imperial court, even my younger brother is valued by the emperor."
Zhichun interjected: "I know this. Fu Heng must have said this deliberately because of the discord between the queen and his master, hoping to disturb A Luo's marriage."
Xianyue thought for a moment and said: "Qi Kuan, you are the only person who has spoken to Fu Heng. Do you think it could be what Zhichun guessed?"
Qi Kuan shook his head and said: "I don't think so. As for the reason...I can't tell you."
Zhichun said unconvinced: "Why is it impossible? Fu Heng is the queen's younger brother. It is normal for him to help the queen deal with us."
Xianyue glanced at her and said: "If Fu Heng is really such a person, the emperor will not think so highly of him." At this point, she turned her eyes to A Luo and said: "Tell me the truth, do you like him very much?"
That person named Zhong Qi?"
Without thinking, A Luo shook his head and said, "I have only seen him once. The most I can say is that I have a good impression of him. I really don't like him."
"That's good." After Xia Yue felt relieved, she said: "Qi Kuan, tomorrow morning, take my handwriting with you out of the palace and go near Zhong Qi's residence. Ask me carefully to find out who he is.
What kind of person is he and...the disgraceful thing Fu Heng said."
Zhichun said in confusion: "Master, do you believe what Fu Heng said?"
Xianyue said slowly: "I can't say I believe it, but since I have doubts, I have to find out. It is related to A Luo's happiness in life, and we can't be careless in the slightest."
A Luo said from the side: "Master, if you think this Zhong Qi is untrustworthy, just eliminate him. I have no objection."
"I know you won't have any objections, but the matter is not that simple." With A Luo's confused expression, she stood up and said, "If Zhong Qi is really a gambler, those guards should tell the truth.
But they didn't. The information Qi Kuan got from asking was all positive. If it weren't for Fu Heng's words, neither you nor I would have the slightest doubt about Zhong Qi; therefore, this matter
