The father and son were very good at talking. Except for Mr. Li, the other three people never appeared on the tower.
When the sky was getting dark and the time was almost up, Xiao Ci took the fire stick from Chu Han's hand and lit the lamp on the tower.
As soon as the lights on the city tower were lit, the lanterns hanging everywhere in the city were also lit up, and the scene of lights all over the city was like the stars in the night sky.
Song Qinghuan stood beside Xiao Ci, looking down at the lights of the city. He couldn't help but raise his lips and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that when the lights are lit in Ruizhou City, there will be such a scene."
Xiao Ci looked at her profile and smiled: "In the future, this Ruizhou City will get better and better, and the scene you see will probably be much more beautiful than what it is today."
Song Qinghuan pursed her lips and smiled, looked sideways at Xiao Ci and said, "I have confidence in you."
After leaving Kyoto, he would no longer have to suffer from those cowardly people, nor would he have to hold his temper and ask for a way out from Queen Mother Jiang.
It’s not like he’s really a romantic waste. As long as he has a heart, Ruizhou will only get better and better in the future.
Song Qinghuan smiled with crooked eyebrows, and Xiao Ci also laughed. When no one was paying attention, the palm hidden under the long-sleeved shirt grabbed hers. Looking at the fireworks that lit up the sky, he said to himself:
"It's better to come early than to come by chance. It's great."
As for why he suddenly said such senseless words, only he knew in his heart.
After watching the lights and fireworks in the middle of the night, it was already getting late when we came back from the tower to Prince Rui's Mansion.
The carriage stopped at the gate of the palace, and Xiao Ci got off the car first and went to the study outside.
Song Qinghuan didn't know what was going on, so he asked Taxue to inquire about it. Before Taxue could leave, he called Xunmei and grabbed him: "There's no need to go, I know."
Without waiting for anyone to ask, Xunmei said: "They are from the Du family, the Zhou family, and the Chen family. They have been waiting outside in the study for most of the night."
After finishing speaking, he said dissatisfiedly: "These people really don't know anything about themselves, and their shame is thicker than the city wall."
Hearing that it was from the Du family, the Zhou family, and the Chen family, Song Qinghuan was sure of it, so he didn't ask any questions. Instead, he looked at Xunmei curiously: "Where did you get this news?"
Xunmei obviously didn't expect Song Qinghuan to ask this. She was startled and said, "Six Swords said that."
When she mentioned Liujian, she couldn't help but frown slightly, with a somewhat confused look in her eyebrows, and said bluntly: "Liujian has taken some wrong medicine recently, and he always talks to me if he has anything to do all day long.
, he talks about everything from east to west, it’s so annoying."
"Six swords?" Song Qinghuan and Ta Xue murmured almost in unison, and both of them cast their gazes on Xunmei with a hint of inquiry.
But Xunmei, a silly girl, didn't notice it at all and was still complaining about the talkative Six Swords.
Song Qinghuan turned his eyes away from Xunmei and landed on Taxue. After thinking about it for a while, he said again: "You must be twenty-one this year."
Texue frowned and lowered his head without saying anything. Xunmei didn't understand the meaning and asked, "Yeah, what's wrong?"
Song Qinghuan responded: "I'm promised."
In a wealthy family, the more useful and decent the maids are, they will have to stay for a few more years before getting married.
Taxue and Xunmei were not just servants to Song Qinghuan. They were younger than her when they were sent to her. Over the years, the relationship between master and servant has become better and better. At this age, it may be possible to get married.
Song Qinghuan was thinking in her mind that she would sort out the dowry for these two little maids later, and she would have to train some people to take over from them.
The two girls didn't know what she was thinking, but when Xunmei heard that she was going to be married to someone else, she immediately turned red and retorted, "Who said we were going to be married to someone else?"
Song Qinghuan looked at her with a smile and said nothing. He only went back to Mingyue Pavilion to talk.
Ever since Song Qinghuan was not married to Xiao Ci, Six Swords had already been used by her. Later when she came to Ruizhou, she would always stay with her and occasionally help Xiao Ci with errands.
After returning to Mingyue Pavilion, Song Qinghuan specially sent Taxue Xunmei out, and then summoned Six Swords to speak.
She was not someone who liked to beat around the bush. She waved a round fan in her hand and looked Liu Jian up and down. It wasn't until Liu Jian felt uncomfortable when she looked at him that she pretended to be annoyed and said sternly: "You
You are so brave, even the people around me dare to think about it."
Liu Jian was not frightened by Song Qinghuan, but his face still stiffened, and then he showed a look of disappointment, looking at Song Qinghuan pitifully.
"Does the princess know?" He sighed: "I knew she definitely didn't like me. I, I, oh, I just, just..."
He stuttered about a sentence and couldn't speak clearly.
Song Qinghuan deliberately deceived him, but his face was still full of sternness: "Xunmei came to me and told me, you talk to her all day long, it is extremely annoying..."
Liujian was not as mature and stable as Chuhan, and it was originally a matter of his own life. When he heard this, he immediately shrugged his head and said mournfully: "I see that she also likes to talk...
"
After a pause, he asked again: "Princess, did she say anything?"
Song Qinghuan suppressed his laughter and remained silent, only looking at Six Swords with sadness.
Liujian was afraid that Xunmei had really said something that he shouldn't have said in front of Song Qinghuan, so he said in a panic: "Princess, I just talked to her casually and didn't do anything else.
I, I don’t have the guts either. Princess, you must believe me. I, I, I am just passionate but polite..."
Seeing that Liu Jian's usual frame was now stripped of everything, Song Qinghuan couldn't hold it back and burst into laughter.
Hearing the sound, Liu Jian hurriedly raised his head, and Song Qinghuan said with a straight face: "I tell you, even if you like someone, you should show some sincerity. You don't want anyone to propose marriage, nor do you come to me to ask for marriage.
Can you marry her home just by talking to someone like this every day?"
"Ah?" Liu Jian didn't react for a moment, and it took him half a beat to catch up. He jumped for joy, grinning from the corner of his mouth to the back of his teeth, and rubbed his hands together, feeling excited and dreaming.
Song Qinghuan shook the fan in his hand: "Really, really, really not true, I have to cure your stutter before we talk."
He smiled again: "You can ask Xunmei yourself. If she is willing, I will be happy to make the decision for her."
"Hey, okay, okay..." Liu Jian's palms were filled with sparks. He turned around hurriedly and went to ask Xun Mei, but before he could go out, he stumbled on the doorstep.
It made Song Qinghuan laugh.
Liu Jian laughed innocently, turned around and bowed to Song Qinghuan, and then left in embarrassment.
Just after Liu Jian left, Ta Xue came into the room with a pale face. He looked at Song Qinghuan but hesitated to speak. He called out "Princess" and couldn't say the rest of the words.
