Today's court meeting ended quickly, and Xu Qing had an expression of disbelief on his face until Eunuch Wei called to withdraw from the court.
He always thought that the reason why the court asked him to come here today was because of some major matter related to the state business, so Xu Qing stood here and waited patiently.
But I waited and waited... until finally I had nothing to do...
Why do you have to let yourself attend this court meeting if you don't have anything to do?
If it hadn't been for this court meeting, Xu Qing would still be sleeping with his soft, sweet-smelling lady in his arms!
Just because of the old emperor's words, he dragged himself away from his wife, and now he is quitting the court?
Emperor Chu saw Xu Qing's expression of surprise among the generals, so he said, "Uncle Anding County, do you have something to say?"
Xu Qing walked out bravely and bowed to the villa and said: "I would like to ask, is there nothing your Majesty wants to know about the country's merchants?"
"Understood?" Emperor Chu shook his head after hearing this and said, "No, since Chu has such a talented person as County Count Anding to take charge of the country's business, I am naturally relieved."
Xu Qing became even more confused when he heard this, and asked again: "Then the reason why His Majesty asked his ministers to attend the court meeting is..."
When the Emperor of Chu heard this, he laughed and said: "It turns out that the suspicion of Uncle Anding is here. Uncle Anding's knowledge and knowledge are the pillars of our great Chu. If you come into contact with the court earlier, you can do more to the great Chu court."
Increase our understanding and become the pillar of our great Chu in the future."
When Xu Qing heard this, he wanted to beat someone up. But if the person who said this was replaced by someone worthy of Xu Qing, Xu Qing would go up with his fists waved!
Is this the reason to drag yourself out of your wife’s bed?!
It’s really abominable!
Emperor Chu asked again: "Do you still have doubts, Uncle Anding County?"
Xu Qing shook his head, gritted his teeth and said, "Return to Your Majesty, no more."
On the surface, the Emperor of Chu said to Xu Qing: "Uncle Anding County will be in charge of the country's business from now on, but you must not let down the expectations of your brother and me."
In fact, Emperor Chu’s heart:
I go to bed late and get up early every day, reviewing memorials and dealing with political affairs all the time. It's hard for me to have any free time. It's better for you and the emperor, you can hide in bed and sleep in every day, doing nothing every day.
How can I balance my heart?
I can’t get the imperial brother here, and I can’t get you Xu Qing in court?!
You are unlucky if you meet me today.
No matter what, one of you two has to bear this pain with me!
If you want to blame it, blame it on you because you are the emperor's brother!
…
After coming out of the court, I returned home and my father-in-law had already gone to the Yamen. He even didn't forget to complain to Su Qian about his envy of Xu Qing before going there.
Xu Qing still doesn't understand what's so enviable about this thing?
Is it uncomfortable to sleep with your wife under the quilt?
Oh, by the way, I almost forgot, my father-in-law no longer has a wife...
No wonder I'm envious...
But fortunately, my father-in-law doesn't have Xu Qing.
…
When Xu Qing returned home, Su Qian was practicing swordplay in the martial arts arena.
The sword is the king of all weapons, and many people like to use swords as weapons.
Even Xiao Ruxue and Xiao Ye have a special liking for swords.
But compared to Xiao Ruxue and Xiao Ye, Xu Qing still preferred to watch his wife dance the sword.
Although Xiao Ruxue is very powerful when wielding a sword, she is still small and not tall enough. Xu Qing always feels that something is missing when she dances with a sword.
Xiao Ye didn't mention it anymore. As a grown man, no one saw him dancing with a sword, so he didn't consider it.
After excluding the first two, Xu Qing was most satisfied with the sword that his wife danced, which was agile but not lacking in momentum and power.
Moreover, Su Qian's figure is just right, making her look quite pleasing to the eye.
Finally, as soon as the move was completed, Su Qian threw the sword casually, and the long sword was inserted straight into the scabbard on the stand straight from the air.
This scene made Xu Qing quite amazed. If Xu Qing took the sword and threw it casually, it might land on Xuan'er's head...
Su Qian turned around and looked at Xu Qing and said, "My husband is back?"
Xu Qing wanted to walk over at this time, but Su Qian dodged Xu Qing's outstretched hand and hid a few steps aside: "I was sweating all over when I was practicing martial arts just now. It's not convenient for me to be so close to my husband.
It’s better to take a bath first.”
Could it be that he, Xu Qing, dislikes his wife for sweating on her body?
But Su Qian didn't want Xu Qing to touch her. Xu Qing couldn't touch her anyway. Alas, sometimes having a woman with strong martial arts skills is also a worry...
Xuan'er said from the side: "Miss, go take a bath quickly, the servant has prepared the hot water just now."
Su Qian nodded and walked towards the room with the bathtub.
Xu Qing followed Su Qian to the door of the bathroom. After Su Qian walked into the bathroom, she turned back to look at Xu Qing who was following her and asked, "Is there anything else, husband?"
Xu Qing looked at Su Qian and thought for a while, then asked, "Do you need someone to rub your back, madam?"
"bump--"
The suddenly closed door almost touched Xu Qing's nose.
Xu Qing stood at the door and sighed: "If you don't need it, don't use it... Why did you close the door, madam? There is no one else in this house except my husband and Xuan'er... Where is the trust between us husband and wife..."
When Xu Qing finished saying this, he could obviously hear some movement from inside the door. Now it was better. Not only was it closed, but the lady also locked it from the inside...
…
Prince Qi's Mansion
Lobby
A middle-aged counselor under King Qi stood in the middle of the hall and said: "Your Highness, the Count Anding is not an ordinary person. If His Highness can get the support of the Count Anding, His Highness will be equivalent to getting the financial power of the Guo Shang Yuan. With the Guo Shang
With the wealth of the hospital, whatever His Highness wants to do in the future, he will have sufficient funds to support it."
Having said this, the middle-aged counselor paused and said: "And with the support of the youngest county uncle in Dachu, His Highness is one step closer to that position. It is a matter of killing multiple birds with one stone!"
King Qi sighed and said: "But Anding County Bo is a member of the lineage of virtuous kings. The lineage of virtuous kings is very popular in the court, and even blatantly forms cliques for personal gain. Will Xu Qing really be used by this king?"
The middle-aged counselor said: "Your Highness, don't worry. Many young people are still young and have insufficient experience. This is the time when they are most likely to act impulsively and emotionally."
"For people of this age, what can impress him is not money, but feelings. In other words, knowing that Xu Qing feels that others are just using him, His Highness is the only one who truly appreciates his talent and is still afraid of Xu Qing
Aren’t you completely devoted to His Highness?”
King Qi heard what the middle-aged counselor said and said: "In other words, to impress Xu Qing, I don't need to pay any money. I just need to make him feel that I really appreciate him?"
The middle-aged counselor cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness is wise."
King Qi breathed a sigh of relief and said: "It would be great if we can recruit people just talking about feelings and not about money. It just so happens that I don't have much money in hand."
