“I don’t know if you have anyone in mind for the marriage contest for Miss Du?” After three rounds of wine and five tastes of food, Qin Shao Yu began to ask.
“Since it is a martial arts competition, I naturally want to find the best martial artist to protect her in the future.” Li Tieji said, “Although Zheng’er is not my blood, I have always regarded her as my daughter over the years, so I naturally hope that she will have a good home.”
Qin Shao Yu smiled, “Miss Du is a renowned beauty, I’m sure this match will be very lively.”
“I don’t dare, Master Qin is joking again.” Li Tieji waved his hand repeatedly, “In terms of appearance, Shen Gongzi is the true beauty of the world. 300 years ago and 300 years after, I am afraid that only Master Yin can be compared to him.”
“Ahem.” Shen Qian Ling choked on the soup.
You can only be compared to a fox spirit, your whole family can be compared to a fox spirit.
Just eat your meal! It’s especially annoying to have artificial thunder from time to time!
“Is Shen Gongzi alright?” Li Tieji was concerned.
“Yes.” Shen Qian Ling quickly resumed his cool demeanour, “I was just thinking about the martial arts competition.”
“Martial arts competition?” Li Tieji was surprised, “Is Shen Gongzi also interested?”
Qin Shao Yu’s face looked like he was smiling.
Who is interested in your daughter? Shen Xiao Shou wanted to grab him by the collar and roar, ‘My man is jealous, don’t talk nonsense!’
“What does Ling-er want to ask?” Qin Shao Yu fed him a chopstick of mutton and his voice was very gentle.
“If you want Miss Du to be happy and secure for the rest of her life, you should find someone who cares for her, not someone who can fight.” Shen Qian Ling looked at Li Tiejie, “Even if the person who wins is the best in martial arts if he is irritable and unreasonable, he will still be at a disadvantage if he marries him.”
“I’ve thought of that, of course.” Li Tieji nodded his head.
Naturally, I thought that you would compete in a marriage contest! Shen Qian Ling spat in his heart.
“Then how does the owner intend to solve this problem?” Qin Shao Yu asked.
Li Tieji laughed and said, “We will see the day of the marriage competition.”
Shen Qian Ling was embarrassed.
How dare he tell a lie!
It was very annoying.
“Chirp!” On the other side of the table, the fur ball was so engrossed in eating that it fell into a plate of cold sweet soup.
Shen Qian Ling: ……
Qin Shao Yu: ……
Li Tieji: ……
My dear mother, the dark guards quickly salvaged their own young palace master.
“Ahem.” Li Tieji sighed in approval, “Little Phoenix is just like the rumours said, pure and romping and full of childish fun.”
“Chirp.” The fur ball gave a breathless bark, obviously frightened.
Dark Guard was immediately distressed, even if he hadn’t recovered from his injuries, he had even dropped himself into the soup.
It was so reassuring.
After the meal was easily finished, Shen Qian Ling moved back to his room and lay down on the bed, not wanting to move.
After rushing around for days, his bones were about to fall apart.
“Tired?” Qin Shao Yu asked.
“Yes.” Shen Qian Ling yawned, “I want to sleep.”
Qin Shao Yu went out and ordered a bath to be brought to him, then sat back down on the bed and tested his pulse.
“How is it?” Shen Qian Ling asked.
“The cold poison is fine.” Qin Shao Yu pinched his cheeks, “You’re a good boy.”
“Don’t worry, I will take care of myself.” Shen Qian Ling looked at him, “So you just go and find Xiao Wu, don’t worry about me.”
Qin Shao Yu nodded and hugged him firmly into his arms.
The water for the bath was soon brought to him, and Shen Qian Ling leaned comfortably against Qin Shao Yu’s chest. Suddenly, he remembered something and asked, “Today, when Li Tieji was having dinner, he said he had already thought of a solution to the issue, what do you think it was?”
“How would I know.” Qin Shao Yu squeezed his tummy, “I’m not him.”
“It’s okay to take a guess.” Shen Qian Ling was dissatisfied, with such a perfunctory attitude!
“We’ll know the answer in three days, what’s the hurry?” Qin Shao Yu massaged his shoulders, “Don’t think about these things anymore, rest well.”
“Don’t you think you’re curious at all?” Shen Qian Ling tugged on his cheek.
Qin Shao Yu said, “Under the sky, I am only curious about Ling-er.”
Shen Qian Ling: ……
You have no sense of being a decent warrior anymore!
And if you’re talking for a good reason, don’t just poke people in the stomach!
It’s a very annoying situation.
“Chirp.” The fur ball stood on the window sill and stretched its neck to look at the two of them before turning around and jumping out of the window, twisting and turning and heading straight for Ye Jin.
Although there was a high risk of having his paws stabbed with silver needles, it didn’t hurt that much, and the most important thing was that he could sleep quietly until dawn.
It’s better than going to sleep in the middle of the night and then suddenly being woken up by some strange noises!
So it was a very difficult childhood for the little phoenix, who had to move around from place to place.
Even a good night’s sleep had become a luxury!
The next morning, Shen Qian Ling rubbed himself under the blanket and stretched himself out.
“Good morning.” Qin Shao Yu embraced him and lowered his head to exchange a gentle kiss.
“Good morning.” The blanket was warm and Shen Qian Ling’s cheeks were flushed, looking healthy and loving.
“I’m going out to get some news today. “Qin Shao Yu rubbed his nose with him, “I’ll take you with me?”
“Take me?” Shen Qian Ling was surprised, “But I’m still pretending to be sick.” There was no reason to go out shopping.
“Then do you want to go out?” Qin Shao Yu asked.
I must! Shen Qian Ling nodded decisively, pretending to be sick all day long and staying in bed is the most boring!
“I want you to pretend to be weak, it’s not like you can’t get out of bed.” Qin Shao Yu hugged him and sat up, “Get dressed.”
“But you said just now that you were going to spy on the news.” Shen Qian Ling said, “Even if I accompany you, I’m sure I won’t be of any help.” I might even become a burden, which is just plain stupid.
“Where do you think I’m going to get information?” Qin Shao Yu laughed.
“Are you not going to eavesdrop?” Shen Qian Ling frowned.
“In broad daylight, where would I go to eavesdrop?” Qin Shao Yu helped him change his clothes, “Naturally, we need to find a place with a lot of people to spy out information.
“A teahouse?” Shen Qian Ling was puzzled by this.
“No matter what time it is, don’t underestimate the people.” Qin Shao Yu said, “Whenever I have no idea about something, I will find a busy teahouse and sit there for an entire afternoon, and then often, without realizing it, the problem will be solved.”
“Yes.” Shen Qian Ling nodded, “Let’s go to the teahouse then!”
So after washing up, the two of them took a few guards with them and left the Li residence through the back door. Of course, to match the theme of “being sick and weak”, Shen Xiao Shou was carried out by Qin Shao Yu.
This scene is so cute that it can’t be anymore!
Li Tieji was stunned when he ran into them, “Where are you two going?”
“Master Li has laughed at me.” Qin Shao Yu glanced at the person in his arms, “Ling-er wants to eat all kinds of dim sum, I’ll take him to the teahouse nearby.” He was so spoiled.
“If you want to eat dim sum, I will order the chef at home to make it for Shen Gongzi, so why do you have to go to the teahouse yourself?” Li Tieji waved his hand again and again, “That kind of place is too crowded for Shen Gongzi.”
“Thank you for your kindness.” Shen Qian Ling looked pale and smiled nicely, “I’m just bored in the house and want to go out for some air.”
“But it’s cold outside…”
“It’s alright.” Before Li Tieji could finish his sentence, the secret guards held up the bag in their hands, “We have brought Gongzi’s cloak with us.”
Li Tieji could only swallow his words and watched them go out the door. In all fairness, since they were already in the house, what he wanted most was for Shen Qian Ling to get well and leave with Qin Shao Yu so that he wouldn’t have to stay here and have long dreams.
“Did you see the expression on Li Tieji’s face just now?” Shen Qian Ling rode sideways on the horse and gave Qin Shao Yu a very puzzled expression, “That’s it.”
Lord Qin laughed out loud, “He is not as good-looking as my Ling-er.”
“Who wants to compare with him.” Shen Qian Ling grunted, “Where are we going for tea?”
“Here we are.” Qin Shao Yu hugged him and rolled off the horse, hand in hand, and entered the teahouse.
The crowd, as expected, started to boil again, but fortunately, Shen Qian Ling had already gotten used to it, so he managed to maintain his image as a sickly little white flower and was led upstairs by Qin Shao Yu, even slipping and almost falling! Of course, Lord Qin must naturally not let him fall, so the crowd was fortunate enough to witness the pink, peachy, beautiful, tingling scene of “Shen Gongzi falling into Lord Qin’s arms”, and they all said they were going to be suffocated.
“What would Ling-er like to eat?” After sitting down, Qin Shao Yu asked Shen Qian Ling in a soft voice.
Xiao Er stood by the side with the menu, even his hands were trembling!
Master Qin is so gentle, he can’t stand it!
Steamed pork ribs with garlic and black bean sauce, phoenix claws, shredded radish, and crystal shrimp dumplings! Shen Qian Ling silently got high in his heart and then said weakly, “White porridge will be fine.” Pretending to be sick is such an ordeal.
Qin Shao Yu held back his laughter and ordered a few more snacks, and helped him replace the white congee with a delicious abalone shark’s fin congee!
“I can’t believe you didn’t order turnip cakes!” After the waiter left, Shen Qian Ling sharply reprimanded his man! It smelled so good and tasted so good!
“Call out ‘husband’ and I’ll buy it for you.” Qin Shao Yu pinched his cheeks.
You’re the one! Don’t you dare to be more vicious! Shen Qian Ling had the backbone to hold the cup and drink the tea by himself.
Qin Shao Yu smiled and shook his head. He turned his head to look out of the window, but inadvertently caught a glimpse of two familiar figures and froze.
“Who do you see?” Shen Qian Ling looked down with curiosity but found nothing. Don’t tell me it’s Yin Wushuang with this amazing expression, it’s not easy to stop for a couple of days.
“Remember, I once said I would take you to see the emperor?” Qin Shao Yu looked at him.
“Of course.” Shen Qian Ling nodded his head, then his eyes instantly alerted, “Do you want to trade me for something again?” That’s a no-no, even the precious beans know that they need to have a backbone!
“No need to go to the Capital.” Qin Shao Yu handed him a cup of tea.
“What do you mean?” Shen Qian Ling was bewildered.
Qin Shao Yu looked at him and smiled, “Piglet.”
Wait! Shen Qian Ling sucked in a mouthful of cold air, “What do you mean?”
“Yeah.” Qin Shao Yu nodded, “I didn’t see his face clearly, but nine times out of ten.”
