When the early morning sunlight shone into the room, Xu Qing had already opened his eyes. At this time, Su Qian was still huddled in Xu Qing's arms, with an arm on Xu Qing's waist, still sleeping soundly.
Xu Qing looked at the charming face in his arms with a slight smile on his lips, but he couldn't take his eyes away after just one glance.
Xu Qing stared at that smile silently, as if he wanted to embed the beauty in front of him into his memory forever.
Although Xu Qing has a photographic memory, and the things he has seen will be imprinted on his mind, but for the scene in front of him, it seems that even one less glance is a great loss. Su Qian at this time, let him cherish it like a pearl, no,
Cherish it more than pearls and jade.
Although the two of them slept in each other's arms last night, they were both wearing clothes. Nothing happened between them last night.
Although nothing happened between the two of them last night, and Su Qian's physical condition was not suitable for anything to happen, this was a huge improvement in their relationship.
At least, Xu Qing can now go to Su Qian's bed.
Although Xu Qing only took a small step to walk to the bed last night, it was a big step for their relationship!
This is a qualitative leap!
Because Su Qian was ill, the task of cooking at home fell on Xu Qing.
After Magistrate Su finished his meal, he went to the office. Su Qian, who woke up, ate the food fed by Xu Qing and then huddled in Xu Qing's arms and closed her eyes.
It seems that during the day, this is the only reason to rest in Xu Qing's arms unscrupulously.
It wasn't until Xuan'er came to tell Xu Qing that someone was looking for his uncle outside that Xu Qing had to leave the room.
Xu Qing looked at Xiao Ye at the door of the mansion and said, "Brother Xiao, did the prince agree?"
Xiao Ye said: "I didn't say I wouldn't agree, but I didn't say I agreed either. It's just that today my father asked Brother Xu to come to the house to talk about it."
Xu Qing nodded when he heard this and said, "Okay, I'll go visit you this afternoon."
Xiao Ye nodded and said, "Then I will wait for Brother Xu in my mansion."
…
Xu Qing returned to the room, and Su Qian was half-lying on the bed. Xuan'er seemed to be talking to Su Qian.
After Xu Qing came back, Xuan'er retreated.
Xu Qing sat by the bed and looked at Su Qian and said, "What was the lady talking to Xuan'er just now?"
Su Qian tilted her head and looked at Xu Qing and said: "Xuan'er said that there was a notice yesterday saying that my husband was kidnapped by bandits and went up the mountain and was rescued by a family member of Prince Xian's Palace. It turns out that the person who attacked me that day was a family member of Prince Xian's Palace.
Will?"
Xu Qing nodded and said: "It was indeed the family generals of Prince Xian's Mansion, and it was also Prince Xian's Mansion's carriage that sent us back."
Su Qian murmured: "I see, it seems that I almost made a big mistake that day."
Xu Qing was very lucky that Su Qian had not eaten enough that day and was not in good health. Otherwise, those families might have had their heads chopped off by Su Qian...
Xu Qing is very confident in his wife's martial arts skills!
Su Qian asked again: "That day, I suddenly remembered that my husband seemed to be running down the mountain in a red robe. What was going on?"
Xu Qing said with a smile: "It's a long story. Madam may not believe it. That day I was tied up by bandits on the mountain and wanted to extort money from my family. However, the bandit leader was a
Woman, that woman originally wanted to rob him of wealth, but when she saw that her husband’s appearance was unparalleled in heaven and earth, and he was one of the most beautiful men in the world, she turned from robbing him of wealth into robbing him of sex, and wanted to force him to do so.
My husband wanted to marry her, but he insisted on having a bridal chamber with my father. Of course, for the sake of my wife, I would rather die than obey and not let her succeed."
Not only the lady didn't believe this, but he himself didn't believe it either...
In my previous life, I was worthy of being a storyteller. Look at what this story tells. A story of faithful love is vividly written on the page.
The key is that this kid doesn't blush at all when talking about his appearance!
The author feels ashamed for him...
Ahem, that's too far off topic...
After listening to the story told by Xu Qing, Su Qian couldn't help but smile a little: "So that's it."
…
Xu Qing will go to see King Xian in the afternoon, and he can probably guess what King Xian wants.
As the saying goes, don't start early if there is no benefit. Why would a wise king do something that has no benefit?
On the surface, this wise king seems to be more leisurely than anyone else, but in fact he is more realistic than anyone else.
Without giving enough benefits, he could transfer his father-in-law? Isn't this wishful thinking?
Xu Qing is not the old father of the wise king, so there is no need for him to listen to whatever Xu Qing says.
The Xian Wang, despite being the king of Chu, was able to cooperate with Xu Qingping just because he saw Xu Qing's talent. To put it bluntly, he saw Xu Qing's utilization value.
If we can create value that all the officials in the court combined cannot create, then we two are like brothers, blood brothers, and we can talk about anything.
If not only can't you create any value, but you can't do anything well and have nothing left to eat... I'm sorry, please turn left and stay where it is cool. I'm not familiar with you...
What is officialdom?
It's human nature.
If there is any use value, there is human kindness. Not only does it have no use value, but it causes trouble everywhere, that is an accident.
This has been the case throughout the ages.
So now Xu Qing should create some value for Da Chu that Da Chu does not yet have.
Xu Qing was very fortunate that the preparation methods of white sugar, rock sugar and soap have not been given out yet. If these were given out, I would probably have to give out other benefits in exchange for benefits today.
When Xu Qing arrived at Prince Xian's Mansion in the afternoon, Xiao Ruxue had been waiting at the door early.
When I saw Xu Qing coming, I felt happy and wanted to jump over as usual, but as if I remembered something, I stopped my joyful heart, jumped instead of walking, and soon arrived in front of Xu Qing.
Xiao Ruxue pulled Xu Qing's sleeve and said, "Father is waiting for you in the study. Come over quickly."
Two people, one tall and one low, walked side by side, just talking quietly while walking. Xiao Ruxue's smile never disappeared from her face along the way.
Xu Qing entered the study, looked at the Xian Wang sitting in the study and said, "Your Majesty."
The wise king said: "Without courtesy, please sit down."
Xu Qing sat on a chair across the table from King Xian.
After Xu Qing sat down, King Xian said: "I ordered Ye'er to invite you over in the morning. Why don't you come in the morning?"
Xu Qing said: "My wife is seriously ill. I have to boil medicine for you. She is afraid of drinking the medicine, so I have to feed it myself."
After hearing this, the wise king smiled and said: "You couple are very similar to me and my princess. Speaking of which, my princess is also afraid of drinking bitter medicine. Every time she is sick, she needs me to personally feed her medicine before she can drink it...
…Even so, it’s really not easy to persuade with kind words.”
Then the Xian King changed the subject and said: "However, don't think that because you are very similar to me, I will sympathize with you. I will transfer the magistrate of Yong'an County to Anding County. It can be said that you will be promoted to two levels in a row. You
What can you give for this that would satisfy me?"
