After hearing this, all the doubts in Xiao Qiyan's heart were cleared. He said to Xiao Chengyi: "Then you have to be careful. The high priest of Southern Xinjiang came to me and wanted to cooperate with me.
Get rid of you!"
"oh?"
Xiao Chengyi raised his eyebrows and asked curiously: "Then why didn't you agree?"
Xiao Qiyan said: "To be honest, the request made by the high priest is quite tempting. It's not that I haven't been tempted, but..."
His eyes moved, and he smiled and said: "That day in the palace, I saw A Lanyi kissing you. That scene was really enviable.
Furthermore, you two have saved Luo Wei's life, how can I repay the favor? What's more, King Gu is the most precious treasure in southern Xinjiang, and even the high priest may not be able to get it, so why should I take the risk to offend you?"
Xiao Chengyi smiled and had to say that Xiao Qiyan was a smart man.
Xiao Qiyan picked up the teacup, took a few sips, and asked him: "Looking at the high priest's intentions, he must take A Lanyi back, so you have to be careful.
I'll draw a portrait for you when I get back, but the high priest is good at disguise, so I haven't taken this route, and he may change his identity again and hide in the capital."
Xiao Chengyi nodded: "The high priest of Southern Xinjiang is not an easy person. It is not easy to catch him. You don't have to worry about this matter. I will deal with it carefully."
After a pause, he added: "Thank you for telling me frankly, uncle."
The tea cup in Xiao Qiyan's hand swayed and he could hardly hold it. He looked at Xiao Chengyi with surprise on his face. He thought he had heard wrongly. This man actually called him uncle?
Just as I was stunned, I heard the housekeeper from the house come to report: "Two princes, the banquet is about to begin. Please take your seats."
Xiao Chengyi stood up calmly, turned around and walked out.
Xiao Qiyan put down the tea cup in his hand and hurriedly chased after him, asking, "What did you call me just now? I didn't hear clearly."
The corners of Xiao Chengyi's lips twitched, and he felt that this man was a bit embarrassed, so he simply stopped talking to him.
The two of them were led towards the front yard by the housekeeper.
At this time, the banquet in the backyard had also been held. Most of the people attending the banquet today were ladies, and these people were entertained by Mrs. Lin.
Only Mu Yun'an was entertained by Lin Luowei personally.
Seeing that there was no sign of Lin Qingshuang at the banquet, Mu Yun'an asked curiously: "How is your sister?"
Lin Luowei said: "I haven't seen her since she came back from the palace banquet. Maybe she hid because she knew it was embarrassing."
Mu Yun'an nodded and said, "But I look at Mrs. Lin as if nothing is wrong. She didn't make things difficult for you, right?"
Lin Luowei smiled and said: "No, she doesn't dare to embarrass me even if my father is here. In order to prevent her from making trouble, my father specially sent people to protect me, and also exempted me from sleeping in the morning and evening. My Mingxinyuan, my wife is
You can't get in."
Since the last incident, Lin Mingfu sent a team of guards to protect her, and specifically stated that Gao Yulan was not allowed to step into Mingxinyuan.
So no matter what Gao Yulan wanted to do to her, there was nothing she could do.
Mu Yun'an felt relieved after hearing what she said. While she was talking, a maid brought fruit wine.
Lin Luowei poured a glass and handed it to her and said: "There is a village in Lin Mansion where they grow rose fruits. This fruit wine is made from rose fruits. It tastes very good. Please give it a try, princess."
