Seeing the little guy standing in front of him intact, Xiao Xu's heart finally fell.
He raised his hand to cover her head, and scolded softly, "Why do you want to go to Chaoyang Palace? You're a mother, how can you be so unreasonable?"
Although he was reprimanding her, the indulgent voice was not stern at all.
Chu Qingyan knew that he was doing it for her own good, so she hugged his arm and rubbed it, "I know, I know, I won't next time, and I also let me know, and I'm not a child, no matter what. Protect yourself, and you have so many people by my side, and you are not vegetarian, so don't worry about it."
While admitting her mistake, she explained to herself, she always knew how to deal with him.
Xiao Xu wasn't really angry. After being smoothed out by her, he took her hand and walked into the hall, "As far as you can tell, what is the mother looking for from you?"
"About the Liang family."
Xiao Xu snorted softly, "As expected."
Chu Qingyan knew that the big ice cube didn't say anything on the surface, but she was definitely disappointed in her heart. Empress Liang should have looked for him before, but he avoided seeing him. She was afraid that she didn't want to experience the abandonment of her family again, so Empress Liang sent someone here. When looking for her, she agreed. The idea is to solve this piece of heart disease for the big ice cubes.
"Why don't you ask me?" She pulled his hand playfully, trying to dissipate the sullen look between his brows.
Xiao Xu was amused by her childish appearance, and he was not so annoyed in his heart. He pinched her cheek, "You are still so naughty, tell me, what did you gain?"
Chu Qingyan patted away the hand he always liked to squeeze her, and winked at Biyu, who immediately came up and presented two brocade boxes.
Just now, Xiao Xu noticed these two boxes and thought they were gifts from Chaoyang Palace. Seeing her appearance, there should be articles in them.
"What?" Xiao Xu motioned, Tu Ling and Huo Ling stepped forward to take the box and opened it, revealing two things inside.
Chu Qingyan patted his hand, "Go and have a look, I'm sure it will surprise you."
Xiao Xu didn't know why, so he took the booklet, turned a few pages, and his eyes froze. After he closed it, he sneered, "I felt that the silver taels in the Liang family's treasury were far from the real embezzlement. Thought it was here."
Naturally, Chu Qingyan didn't know that the big ice cube had already discovered it, and nodded after hearing the words, "The three caves of the cunning rabbit, generally the richer and more powerful people are, the better they know how to hide, but they can hide from Xiao Lieqi's intelligence network. It's really great."
Xiao Xu was noncommittal, his eyes fell on the token of the second box, Chu Qingyan immediately repeated Empress Liang's remarks to him.
Xiao Xu's face was expressionless, until after Chu Qingyan finished speaking, he threw the two things back into the box, "Give the account book to the second prince, and the token to King Yi, and let them deal with it."
Tu Ling and Huo Ling left the palace without saying a word, holding their things.
After giving the order, Xiao Xu shook his head for a while, as if he had thought a lot, but at the same time, as if he had not thought about anything, at this moment, the cold palm was warmer and softer, he turned his head, and met the pair of understanding people. eyes.
"Big ice cube, I took these two things without your consent, but it made you embarrassed?"
Xiao Xu clenched the softness in his hand, and his lips painted a smile, "No, don't think too much, you did this and helped me solve the problem, I should thank you."
"That's good." She snuggled up beside him, resting her head on his shoulder, looking attached and lingering.
The inexplicable loss in Xiao Xu's heart vanished after feeling her strong dependence. He should stop laughing. He is no longer the helpless boy he was ten years ago, and now he bears a sweet burden on his shoulders. , he has more warmth than in the past, everything in the past has passed.
He raised his hand and stroked her long hair, enjoying the quiet and peaceful moment.
"Why did you leave these two things to Xiao Yao and Xiao Hou just now?" Chu Qingyan raised her head from his shoulders, her big eyes flickering, although she was asking, her eyes were full of jokes of cunning.
The little guy can naturally guess what he thinks, but he just wants to verify it with him.
Xiao Xu chuckled, "Guess what, you will be rewarded if you guess."
"You want to take the opportunity to train the two of them and choose the best successor?" She licked the corner of her mouth, revealing a treacherous smile.
Xiao Xu tapped her on the forehead, his eyes full of love, "Yes, they have good temperaments and can take on heavy responsibilities, but it is a bit reluctant to be competent for the emperor's career."
Xiao Yao is used to being lazy and lacks some restraints, so he will send him to supervise the construction of the city, in order to make his temper a little restrained, this time the Liang family's family is handed over to him for the same purpose, and he will definitely be in touch during the period. Many thorn-head officials took the opportunity to practice his hands for him.
Xiao Hou used to have some fighting spirit, but after the incident with Pang Zhijing, his temperament has changed greatly, and he has no desires, so he must inspire the militants in his heart, and there is another reason that the token is handed over. In his hands, he can play a greater role.
"Big Ice Cube, you are so treacherous. If they know your original intention, will they not do it?" Chu Qingyan propped her chin up, imagining Xiao Yao jumping up and down, and Xiao Hou's uncertain appearance, she endured it. Can't stop laughing.
"You didn't come up with this idea?" he asked with a smile.
Ah? At the beginning, she just thought that there were so many princes in the royal family, and he was busy alone, and it was impossible to say it! That's why I thought about pulling these two people into the water, how could I know that the big ice cube had other ideas!
"However, it still takes time to sharpen them, and the court is unstable, so I'm afraid I will have to be the emperor for a while." Xiao Xu lightly clasped his fingers on the chair handle, seemingly having a headache.
"It can only be said that capable people have worked hard." There are so many people in the world who want to sit, but her family's big ice cubes are dismissive. Sure enough, the man she likes is so different!
"By the way, you just said that there is a prize for my guess, so what is the reward?"
"Reward the most honorable person in the world to warm your bed."
"Big ice cube, you are getting more and more brazen!"
"Thank you for your praise, Madam, and I will make persistent efforts in the future!"
"… "
So bad so bad!
But this is what she is used to, so she has to continue to get used to crying.
The Second Prince's Mansion.
Xiao Yao thought that he could relax for a few days, but Huo Ling brought his royal brother's decree and a box. He twitched the corners of his mouth and walked into the room reluctantly. I haven't woken up yet, no, I have to go to sleep."
As for Yi Wangfu, when Xiao Hou saw the token, he scolded shamelessly in his heart, and he had to take it with a smile on the surface.
So angry, but keep smiling!
