"When do you plan to leave?" Chu Yuan was impatient.
"How is your relationship with Qin Shaoyu?" Duan Baiyue asked.
"Qin Shaoyu?" Chu Yuan frowned, "Why did you mention him suddenly?"
"If you can manage it, I want to ask you one thing." Duan Baiyue said.
Chu Yuan's face became even more gloomy when he heard this.
Duan Baiyue understood, raised her hands and said, "Forget it, I didn't say it."
"I don't want to intervene in the affairs of the rivers and lakes." Chu Yuan said coldly.
"But as far as I know, the emperor seems to want him to fight in the northwest." Duan Baiyue teased, "isn't that considered meddling?"
Chu Yuan was furious, "Do you dare to send someone to monitor me?"
"How can it be called surveillance." Duan Baiyue laughed, "There are not many masters in your palace, and how many people are eyeing the throne. Naturally, I have to send people to protect it."
Chu Yuan walked away angrily, obviously not wanting to entangle with him.
Duan Baiyue didn't take it seriously, and after drinking a pot of wine at the table, she pressed the map under his book, turned and left the Zhou family mansion.
It coincides with the market, and the street is very lively. Duan Baiyue walked back slowly, but suddenly caught a glimpse of two people from the corner of her eye, so she dodged and hid in an alley.
Shen Qianling took a bag of fried chestnuts with sugar, peeled one and handed it over while eating.
Qin Shaoyu opened his mouth.
Shen Qianling fed the chestnuts to Maoqiu.
Qin Shaoyu: ...
Fuqiu: Chirp!
A fragile father-son relationship is tested every day, and that's very dangerous indeed.
Shen Xiaoshou didn't realize it, and was still gnawing chestnuts.
The common people burst into tears, as expected of being born in October, the importance has surpassed that of Palace Master Qin.
This scene is touching.
"Don't eat." Shen Qianling handed him the chestnuts and hugged the fur ball back, "Let's find a place to sit."
"Tired from walking?" Qin Shaoyu asked.
"Not really." Shen Qianling said honestly, "I just don't want to be watched anymore."
"Then let's drink a pot of tea." Qin Shaoyu led him into a teahouse.
"Chirp!" Fuqiu kicked Qin Shaoyu with his small claws—peel the chestnuts quickly.
Palace Master Qin pretended not to feel it.
"Jiujiu!" Fuqiu made a little effort.
Palace Master Qin touched his chin and coughed.
Tried and failed, Mao Qiu wittily changed his strategy, looked up at Shen Xiaoshou with a very disappointed but also very well-behaved expression.
"Feed it." Shen Qianling was hit as expected.
"No." Palace Master Qin was also very arrogant, hiding the chestnut behind his back.
Fuqiu suddenly showed a heartbroken expression.
Qin Shaoyu ate a chestnut by himself.
Fuzzy tucked his head under his wings to show that he was really sad.
Palace Master Qin was very satisfied.
Shen Qianling had a splitting headache.
Do you two dare to be more naive
How stupid!
Since it was afternoon and coincided with the market, there were quite a few people in the teahouse. But for the two of them, this is not a problem at all. If the cute and delicate glass-like Mr. Shen wants to drink tea, even if he offends the whole town, he will be kicked out of the table! What's more, the tea drinkers are very understanding and willing to give up the best seats, because "Mr. Shen is sitting where I sat drinking tea" is enough to brag about for a whole year, so proud!
"Thank you all." Qin Shaoyu sat by the window with Shen Qianling, and said to Xiao Er, "Today, I'm treating guests so that everyone doesn't have to pay money."
As soon as the words fell, everyone applauded excitedly.
Shen Qianling was frightened, she didn't speak too loudly just now, she heard everything.
Qin Shaoyu shook his head with a smile, grabbed a handful of melon seeds for Maoqiu and put them on the table.
Xiao Fenghuang squatted on the table, looked at his father with a serious expression—it was peeled off.
Qin Shaoyu ate slowly by himself.
At the beginning, the hairball was still very spineless, but later saw that the melon seeds were about to be eaten up, so it twisted and ran over in grief and anger, and lay down on the melon seeds to protect the food.
Qin Shaoyu laughed until his stomach hurt.
Shen Qianling looked at each person and bird in the opposite direction speechlessly, making tea by herself.
After a while, Shen Xiaoshou yawned out of boredom.
"Want to sleep?" Qin Shaoyu asked.
The eyes of the people around immediately lit up, thinking about what it meant to be asleep, Mr. Shen really deserved to be a thousand-year-old flower demon, he was so unrestrained, he actually fell asleep in broad daylight.
Not really. Shen Qianling knocked on the table out of boredom, shouldn't the essence of drinking tea be chatting, it's no wonder that she doesn't feel sleepy while sitting so dryly.
But I can't talk because there are people all around!
Qin Shaoyu smiled, turned his head to look at the crowd and said, "Ling'er has something to whisper to me, can you avoid it?"
As soon as the voice fell, the person next to him immediately dragged the table and rumbled away a lot, consciously comparing it to that, there was no need to persuade him at all!
Shen Qianling was embarrassed, and complained in a low voice, "How can I hinder everyone."
"It's just farther away." Qin Shaoyu poured tea for him, "At worst, when it's time to leave, I'll give each person an extra five taels of silver."
Shen Qianling: ...
Young hero, are you a bit of a prodigal
"As long as you're happy, I'm willing to give away as much as you want." Qin Shaoyu saw what was on his mind, and said again, "I can say what I want to say now, but no one responded to my mention of five taels of silver just now, obviously I can't hear it."
"Actually, it's nothing." Shen Qianling peeled peanuts and ate them, "I just wanted to ask when you plan to find Duan Baiyue."
"Tonight." Qin Shaoyu said.
"Tonight?" Shen Qianling was a little surprised, "Why so fast, I thought it would be at least after the martial arts competition."
The people onlookers spurted blood and rubbed their hands, Mr. Shen looked surprised, it must be that Palace Master Qin made some outrageous gesture again.
We are not thinking about it at all!
"Originally, I wasn't sure whether Duan Baiyue's disappearance was related to Duan Baiyue." Qin Shaoyu said, "I'm afraid that if he hadn't taken him away, then according to his temper, if he knew that Xiao Wu was lost, he would definitely go ahead and go Looking for my younger brother, there is a high probability that I will miss the task entrusted by the emperor. So I want to wait for the secret guards sent to Luotang Town to return first, and then make a decision."
"What about now?" Shen Qianling asked.
"The dark guard has rushed back, saying that Huatang left a message in Luotang Town, confirming that Xiao Wu is in Duan Baiyue's hands." Qin Shaoyu said, "Since it has been settled, I will naturally go to seek an explanation."
"What about Guardian Zuo?" Shen Qianling asked, "Didn't you come back with me?"
Qin Shaoyu shook his head, "She went to the Southwest Palace to find Xiao Wu."
"If that's the case, at least their lives won't be in danger." Shen Qianling said, "It's a good thing."
"If it goes well, I will take you to the South China Sea the day after tomorrow." Qin Shaoyu rubbed his head.
"Going to leave the day after tomorrow?" Shen Qianling frowned, "But this place is still a mess."
"It's Chu Yuan's mess, not mine." Qin Shaoyu said, "The only ones related to me are Xiao Wu and Hua Tang, but Duan Baiyue probably won't let them go so easily. I just want to share some words with you tonight." He explained that the rest of the matter can be discussed after we return from the South China Sea."
"Then Xiao Wu and Guardian Zuo will be imprisoned for a long time." Shen Qianling frowned.
Qin Shaoyu laughed, "Why would you think so."
"Isn't it?" Shen Qianling wondered.
"A younger brother and a younger sister-in-law, even if Duan Baiyue's brain is in the water, she will not imprison the two of them in the dungeon." Qin Shaoyu said, "At most, they will be locked up in the Southwest Palace, where there are mountains, water, food, and play. Rather than being imprisoned, it is better to say that we are on vacation together to travel around the mountains and rivers."
"But not free." Shen Qianling emphasized, "And they must want to come back." It would be great if everyone had a lively time together.
"I also want to solve this matter as soon as possible, but it's a pity that I don't have the means to separate myself." Qin Shaoyu said, "Hua Tang and Xiao Wu are only temporarily unable to escape from the Southwest Palace, but your cold poison may recur from time to time. Which one is more important? Heavy?"
Shen Qianling didn't speak.
Maoqiu squatted on the table, eating melon seeds seriously.
"There are many things waiting for me to do, but I can only do the most important one." Qin Shaoyu pinched his face, "Don't think about it, why don't you remove the tea and order something to eat?"
"No more." Shen Qianling shook her head, "I don't want to be seen by so many people."
"Then I'll take you to a place where no one is watching." Qin Shaoyu chuckled.
"Where?" Shen Qianling was curious.
Qin Shaoyu picked up the hair ball casually, and with the other hand, he took Shen Qianling downstairs.
"Chirp!" Mao Qiu stretched out his paws, and Little Black Dou looked anxiously at the big melon seeds on the table.
I just pecked it out, but I didn't eat it!
What a pity.
Qin Shaoyu's so-called "place no one looks at" is the roof of the guest room in Li's residence.
The dark guard was kicked out as expected, and it was extremely difficult.
"No one will look at us here, and we can also see the scenery." Qin Shaoyu opened a few oil-paper bags, which were filled with various kinds of lo-mei.
"Chirp!" Fuqiu squatted in the yard, raised his head and acted cute.
Qin Shaoyu casually dropped a piece of dried tofu.
The fur ball was caught accurately, then squatted on the table and ate it obediently, then happily jumped off the table and went to the house to play with Ye Jin.
The dark guard next to him felt very sad, my young palace master has grown to the point where a piece of tofu can satisfy her.
You must know that Phoenix's nature is very glamorous!
What the hell happened in the middle!
Can be sad.
"If you refuse to send troops to the northwest for the emperor, who will fight instead?" Shen Qianling asked while gnawing chicken feet.
"Whoever he is." Qin Shaoyu wiped his mouth for him, "It's not me anyway."
"That's right, and even if I don't have the cold poison, I won't let you go." Shen Qianling said, "To save Yin Wushuang, the poison in the wind and sand ghost city has not been cleaned up until now, who wants to go again!"
"The point just now is to save Yin Wushuang or am I poisoned?" Qin Shaoyu asked calmly.
Shen Qianling thought for a while, "Poisoned?"
Qin Shaoyu heaved a sigh of relief and nodded, "I'm not married to Ling'er yet, so I must not be poisoned again. Besides, it's fine if I'm seriously injured and vomits blood. If I can't eh again from now on, then life will be boring."
Shen Qianling: ...
Young hero, is this the only thing you can do in your life
"Eat this." Qin Shaoyu handed him a small bowl of noodles.
"Seriously, does it matter if you were poisoned last time?" Shen Qianling frowned slightly. Although he kept saying he was fine, the black bruise on his arm never disappeared, and it was uncomfortable just looking at it.
"It's just a little ugly, it's okay." Qin Shaoyu pinched his face, "If you don't like to watch it, then I'll put some powder on it before next time."
Shen Qianling didn't know whether to laugh or cry at him.
I knew there was no way to talk to him about business!
"Palace Master." The dark guard said in the courtyard, "The King of Southwest is walking this way, it seems that he is looking for Palace Master."
"That's good, I came to the door by myself." Qin Shaoyu put down the lo mei in his hand, looked at Shen Qianling and said, "Do you want to meet him with me?"
