It's rare for a peacock to open its tail, but it kicked the iron plate!
Everyone laughed secretly and opened their eyes wide to watch the show.
He is worthy of being a county magistrate for more than three years.
Li Qin's expression froze, and he quickly changed his words with a smile: "Master Xie considers his daughter as an official of the imperial court, and her official position is even higher than mine. I really admire her."
Xie Zijin smiled again: "Li Zhixian is a young Jinshi. He became an official through the imperial examination and became a county official and benefited the people. This is truly admirable. I am a mere little girl with little talent and virtue. It is all because of my aunt and uncle's love for my cousin.
Support. Otherwise, how can you enter the Zhanshi Mansion in the East Palace as a woman? How can you be promoted to a sixth-rank official position as soon as you enter the court? What achievements can you make as an official for only one year, and why should you become famous in the capital?"
"I think so when I want to come to Li Zhi County!"
Li Qin: "..."
Everyone: "..."
Okay, another setback!
While everyone was laughing, they couldn't help but feel sympathy for the disgraced Li Qin. Especially Li Yu, who secretly shed tears of sympathy for his poor brother.
Princess Duanrong, whom her brother once admired, was a gentle girl.
And the Xie Zijin in front of me, with his weird spirit and tricky words, is like a hot pepper. He can choke people into silence with just one mouthful!
Li Yu coughed and smoothed things over with a smile: "My cousin Zijin said that, but she is too modest. If you have little talent and virtue, wouldn't the officials in the Qi court be as stupid as wood?"
Sheng Luo smiled and took over the conversation: "Yes, too much modesty is pride. Zijin, please calm down and stop teasing Brother Li."
Xie Zijin listened to Sheng Luo's words very much, and responded with a pursed lips and a smile, his lips were rosy and slightly raised, revealing his thin teeth, and two shallow smile dimples on his cheeks.
Sweet, well-behaved and cute.
Where is the cunning and bitter look just now?
Li Qin was dumbfounded for a moment, and for some reason, he felt like laughing again.
This Xie Zijin was very kind and friendly to others, but when he was facing him, he was choking and harsh, as if he would choke you to death without paying for it. He clearly knew that the Li family wanted to get married, and deliberately wanted to be mean to him to let him know
Retreat from difficulty.
It seems that Xie Zijin doesn’t want to get married at all!
It's a pity that she is still young and tender. She doesn't know that men are born with cheap bones and bad qualities. He was originally not very interested in marrying a wife, but today she was aroused by her continuous difficulties and became very interested and competitive.
Thanks Zijin!
I've fallen in love with you!
I have been waiting for these two years!
Li Qin took a deep look at Xie Zijin, who was smiling beautifully.
…
During the lunch banquet, everyone sat around.
As usual, Xie Zijin sat next to his cousin Sheng Luo, so that he could take care of her at any time. Li Qin happened to sit opposite Xie Zijin.
Xie Zijin couldn't help but glance at Li Yu quietly.
Li Yu was Sheng Fu's husband. Sheng Fu and Sheng Luo were very close and had close contacts. It was common for Li Yu to go in and out of the East Palace. Xie Zijin and Li Yu were very familiar with each other.
Therefore, when Xie Zijin saw Li Qin opposite him, he knew that Li Yu had done it deliberately.
Li Yu was very shameless. When Xie Zijin glared at him, he just didn't know what to say and warmly invited everyone to sit down and have a meal.
Sheng Luo glanced around and caught some glimpses. She smiled at Xie Zijin in a low voice and said, "Stop being so sullen. Li Qin will leave Beijing in a few days, and I won't be hanging around under your nose every day."
This is true.
It's rare for everyone to get together, so don't let it spoil the fun.
Xie Zijin smiled and hummed, and stopped glaring at Li Yu. However, he just ignored Li Qin.
In the afternoon, everyone left.
Li Qin didn't leave, but stayed in Li Yu's study talking about this and that, not getting to the point for a long time.
Li Yu couldn't stop laughing: "Come on, brother, we are twin brothers. Can I not know what you are thinking? You must have fallen in love with Xie Zijin at a glance!"
Li Qin coughed: "You say yes, that's it!"
Li Yu shushed him: "Don't be so arrogant. I don't know you yet! If you hadn't fallen in love with me, how could you have the shamelessness to talk to other girls? It's a pity, they don't care about you at all.
.You are hanging on because you want to find out from me about Xie Zijin’s hobbies and his usual temperament!"
Do you want a wife or face?
Such multiple-choice questions are not difficult for Li Qin.
Li Qin barely hesitated before he chose his future wife at the expense of his dignity: "Yes."
Li Yu couldn't stop laughing.
Li Qin also laughed at himself: "In the past few years, I have been away from Beijing. I have been busy with official duties and have no intention of marrying. Therefore, I didn't respond to my mother's letters asking me to come back. My mother told me about Xie Zijin
At that time, I didn’t pay much attention to it. I thought that as long as my mother fell in love with her, I would marry her! Unexpectedly..."
Unexpectedly, Xie Zijin didn’t want to get married at all!
Unexpectedly, when they met again, he would be fascinated by the tricky little girl!
Li Qin wanted to show his face, but he was too embarrassed to speak too bluntly, so he continued implicitly: "I have already thought about it, wait two years, and then go to the Xie family to propose marriage."
"I have one and a half years to go before my term ends. Then I will consider returning to the capital to serve. For more than a year, you have to keep an eye on me."
understood!
Li Yu nodded: "If someone goes to Xie's house to propose marriage, I will definitely write to tell you. Also, mention you more in front of Xie Zijin, lest she forget you as soon as you leave."
What a good brother!
Li Qin nodded happily: "Also, I will write back. When the time comes, you can secretly send the message to her for me. Remember to give it to her in private and don't tell anyone. Even my mother, you keep it secret.
"
Li Yu:"……"
…
After Li Qin left, Li Yu couldn't bear to complain to his beloved wife Sheng Fu: "I used to have such a calm mind. Look at it now, it's like the house is on fire. I can't wait to marry Xie Zijin right away."
Sheng Fu chuckled: "He himself likes Zi Jin the best. In the past two years, it depends on whether he can impress Zi Jin."
On the other side, Sheng Luo and Lu Tianyou were also whispering and laughing about the matter after returning to the East Palace.
"I had never thought of putting the two of them together as a couple before."
Sheng Luo smiled and said: "Now that I think about it, I think it's quite suitable. Li Qin is more calm and outstanding than before. Zijin is young and talented, and has a high spirit. The idle young man can't catch her eye at all. Li Qin is quite suitable.
.”
Li Qin is a few years older, has been hurt by love, and knows how to cherish feelings better. He will also cherish Xie Zijin more in the future.
Lu Tianyou thought for a while and said with a smile: "Cousin Zijin is in high spirits, but she refuses to get married now. After two years, when her energy has been slightly smoothed out, and she has truly matured and grown up, she may nod and agree to the marriage."
All in all, whether he can marry the girl he likes as his wife depends on Li Qin's sincerity and ability.
Sheng Luo raised her eyebrows and smiled: "We'll see."
