On this day, Xiao Xu and Chu Qingyan returned to the palace, and the housekeeper handed over a letter of greeting.
Xiao Xu took the invitation, glanced at the lotus pattern on it, and opened the list.
After reading the content inside, his expression became a little subtle.
Chu Qingyan, who was drinking tea, saw the change in his expression and couldn't help asking, "Who sent the post."
Xiao Hou put the post on the table, raised his eyebrows slightly, "A person you can't think of."
so mysterious
She immediately took the post and opened it, her eyes fell on the signature, Xiao Hou.
After reading it, she looked incredulous, "I have nothing to do to visit the post?"
Xiao Xu took the teacup, took a sip, and pondered.
Chu Qingyan continued, "We don't have much interaction with him on weekdays, but he has plotted against his back a few times. What does he want to do when he comes to our palace this time?"
"I'm also curious about going to the Three Treasures Hall for everything." Xiao Xu said indifferently.
She remembered that when he was in the south of the Yangtze River, he designed the bank and caused a lot of losses to the big ice cube. Fortunately, he finally got it back. But then, he was a black hand hiding in the dark, and he stretched out and pushed you from time to time. Pushing you into the gutter, such a person has to be guarded.
"My subordinates think that Yi Wangye is just like the weasel's New Year's greetings to the chicken. He has no good intentions. Maybe he has dug a hole in front of him, waiting for us to jump down." The matter of being played around by King Yi as a fool, and the fact that he caused a lot of stumblings to the master later, a fire was burning in his heart.
She can understand Huo Ling's anger, and after thinking about it, she can't help but turn her head and ask, "Then, are you going to accept this invitation or not?"
"Of course, why not?"
Xiao Hou smiled lightly, but he wanted to see what this third brother came to him for, in other words, what tricks he wanted to play.
Whether it's a trick or something, the soldiers will block the water and cover the soil.
She and Huo Ling glanced at each other. Since the big ice cubes had made such a decision, they should also see why Xiao Hou came here.
Because the time written on the post was in the afternoon, not long after lunch, the concierge came to report that King Yi had arrived.
Chu Qingyan and Xiao Xu went to the living room together.
Not long after they sat down, Xiao Hou came in wearing a cloak.
Chu Qingyan scrutinized him secretly. Outside, there are modern 312 degrees, but Xiao Hou was wearing a thin spring brocade clothes and a cloak, which made people feel warm for him at first glance. .
But he seemed to be used to it, his face pale and weak, as if a gust of wind would blow him over.
However, the expression is gentle, the face is as gentle as jade, and the figure is tall and straight, which is very in line with the current aesthetics. Chu Qingyan feels that the genes of the big ice cubes and their royal family are so good that it makes people jealous, and they come out one by one.
But she felt that such an image was different from the scheming and ruthless Xiao Hou that she imagined.
Shouldn't be such a person who looks completely innocuous.
But how many are unsightly
Thinking of this, she also felt reasonable.
I don't know if it was because her eyes were too obvious or what. Xiao Hou, who walked in slowly, turned his head to look in her direction. Just when she thought she was caught, he smiled at her with a soft expression. Like a harmless handsome scholar.
Chu Qingyan subconsciously nodded to him.
To be honest, she always knew that there was such a formidable opponent behind the big ice cube, but strictly speaking, this was the first time she and him got along in the same environment on such a serious occasion.
At this time, Xiao Hou had already withdrawn his gaze, stood in front of Xiao Xu, and bent slightly, "Brother the First Emperor, Miss Chu, I'm really sorry to disturb you all of a sudden." As he spoke, he coughed twice.
Although the two were secretly hostile, but seeing his pale and bloodless appearance, Xiao Xu immediately raised his hand to let him sit down.
"Between brothers, there is nothing to disturb, not to disturb, or to feel sorry for." Xiao Xu took the appearance of his brother, and his voice was not cold.
Xiao Hou was not polite either, he took a seat next to him, looked at the tea that was served soon, and smiled slightly, "This is the West Lake Longjing, right? You can smell it."
"That's right, it's West Lake Longjing. King Yi is really good, and he actually guessed it right." Chu Qingyan was a little surprised, this person was able to identify tea leaves just by the scent of the tea, which was simply too good.
Xiao Hou smiled humbly, "It's not that great, it's just that my body is too weak. I usually stay in the mansion with nowhere to go and nothing to do, so I have nothing to do and drink tea. But there are only a few that can be called.”
Listening to the chat between the two, Xiao Xu did not speak, and sipped his tea quietly.
The two discussed the topic of tea, and the atmosphere that was a little unfamiliar just now seemed to melt.
Xiao Hou didn't get to the point, Xiao Xu was not in a hurry, Chu Qingyan was not in a hurry when he saw the big ice cube in his house, and he was not in a hurry, because they all knew that the one who took the initiative to visit, Xiao Hou, was in a hurry.
Xiao Hou knew at this time that one of them was in charge of gossiping and the other was in charge of watching, and they were just pretending to be deaf and dumb.
He sneered in his heart, the two really had a tacit understanding, and they cooperated perfectly. He didn't realize it at first, but now that he saw it, he was relieved. His visit was indeed a bit sudden, so they were watching out for themselves. So their reaction is normal, but if not, it's him who should be worried.
After a while, the two were able to withdraw from the topic of tea. Xiao Hou was a little impressed with Chu Qingyan. I heard that although she was born in the Chu family, she grew up in a rural area and could understand so much. He was somewhat admired.
But he did not forget the purpose of his trip.
"Eldest brother, my younger brother has an unkind request, and I hope that the first brother can agree." Since the other party didn't say anything, he would take the initiative to raise it.
finally come.
Xiao Xu and Chu Qingyan looked at each other and saw a clear meaning in each other's eyes.
"Third brother, don't be polite, say something." Xiao Xu rarely answered patiently.
Chu Qingyan also nodded in agreement.
Xiao Hou nodded and said, "I want to ask the eldest brother about someone, or Miss Chu, because the person I want to ask about is a good friend of you."
Chu Qingyan was stunned for a moment, then pointed to herself, "I know?"
Xiao Hou nodded again, "This person's name is Cheng Yanluo, the only daughter of Luo Shenyi."
As soon as she heard Yan Luo's name, Chu Qingyan immediately became vigilant. He suddenly inquired about Yan Luo, how could there be anything good, after all, this person was so cunning, she didn't know what purpose he was asking about Yan Luo.
She subconsciously looked at her big ice cube.
Do you want to tell him
