A ray of setting sun just shines into the study, spreading on a square of agarwood desk.
The man sitting at the table took off his mask, and his handsome face looked a bit primitive in the dim sunlight.
His eyes were distant, staring at the corner of the table, but he didn't know where he was looking beyond the corner of the table.
Suddenly, Meng Yinqin stood up suddenly, walked to the cabinet on the left, squatted down and pulled out a dusty scroll from the bottom drawer.
While dusting himself off, he returned to his desk and slowly unfolded the scroll.
At this moment, there was a gentle knock on the door outside the study.
"Dad, can Xi'er come in?"
Meng Yinqin's subconscious was shaken for a moment like an electric shock, and he was about to close the scroll.
But the next second, he was stunned, suddenly let go of his hand, and let the scrolls scatter on the desk.
"Come in!"
Qin Jiaoxi pushed open the door and entered.
Seeing that his father was not wearing a mask, he was stunned for a moment, then turned around and closed the door with a bang like a reflex.
His movements were as nimble as if he had been covering for someone for years.
A smile overflowed from Meng Yinqin's lips: "Xi'er, you don't have to be so vigilant at home!"
Qin Jiaoxi turned around and blinked: "This is not vigilance. Xi'er is worried that the maid in the house will be fascinated by her father. What should she do?"
The smile on Meng Yinqin's face disappeared instantly: "Tsk, what does this little girl know!"
Qin Jiaoxi sighed.
She knew that before she even had time to say anything, it was just a casual joke.
Is there still a chance to say the next thing?
Seeing her face darken, Meng Yinqin couldn't bear it. He also wondered if he was too serious, so he quickly asked softly: "Xi'er has something to do with daddy?"
Qin Jiaoxi gritted his teeth: "Well, something happened!"
"What's the matter?"
"Dad, Xi'er heard that Princess Ningguo is going to be sent to a border town for marriage. Is it true?"
Meng Yinqin subconsciously corrected her: "Being in a border town within your own country is not considered a marriage, Xi'er..."
Before he finished speaking, he was stunned for a second: "No, where did you get such unreliable rhetoric?"
Qin Jiaoxi curled her lips: "People are already spreading rumors in the streets and alleys of Zhaodu City. Dad also asked where Xi'er heard it from? They are talking about it everywhere, okay?"
Before I even mentioned the request, my heart had already cooled down.
Didn't my father pay any attention to Princess Ning Guo?
Such a big thing!!!
Meng Yinqin stared at Qin Jiaoxi's unopened face: "Are Xi'er worried about something? Don't worry, dad will never send you out for a kiss!"
Qin Jiaoxi: "???"
What are they all about?
She is obviously still young, but she is still far away from things like marriage, okay?
"No, dad, Xi'er came here today to confirm whether the eldest princess really offended the Prime Minister of Qin and the king with a different surname because she saved Xi'er, so she wants to be married far away from the emperor?"
If this is the case, she must put forward conditions. This is what she owes Princess Ningguo!
Meng Yinqin's brows knitted: "Xi'er doesn't have to worry about this matter, dad will handle it!"
He also didn't want Xi'er to think that he was aggrieved and forced to return the favor.
Qin Jiaoxi bit her lip, it was so difficult to communicate!
The saying that there is a generation gap at the age of three is really true, it feels like a chicken talking to a duck.
"Dad, that's not what Xi'er means. Xi'er just wants to make sure whether he wants to return the favor to the princess!"
Meng Yinqin waved his majestic hand: "That's what dad meant. Xi'er doesn't have to worry about this. Dad will handle it well!"
