Su Li was shocked, but he smiled calmly and said: "You are joking, Your Majesty! Su Li was indeed timid before, but after the last incident, Su Li understood a truth. Being afraid of escaping cannot solve the problem. The only way is to face it bravely. , Fang is the way to be a human being..."
As soon as these words came out, both Su Xiangru and his wife had a look of shock in their eyes. Dongfangze's eyes darkened slightly, but he did not speak.
.
Su Li's thoughts changed, and he immediately smiled and said respectfully: "Speaking of which, Su Li still owes the prince a huge favor. If the prince hadn't come to rescue him that day, Su Li would have died at the hands of the thief. The grace of saving his life. , I have no repayment, so Su Li will have a glass of wine today to pay tribute to the prince, and wish the prince to fulfill his ambitions and achieve his wishes in this life!"
She offered the jade cup filled with fine wine with both hands. Change the topic easily, cleverly and without leaving any trace.
Dongfangze took it and said with a smile: "Miss Er's kind words." He raised his head and drank it all in one gulp, his black eyes radiating a dazzling light. Then he said: "I am very curious, how could you be wandering alone and being hunted down? Those two people, I asked people to check, are human traffickers who travel between Kyoto and other places. How did you... fall into their hands?" "
As soon as this question was raised, Mrs. Su's eyes suddenly changed, and Su Qin's face turned pale. Su Xiangru frowned and stared at Su Li closely, as if he was afraid that her careless words would cause trouble for him.
Su Li smiled faintly and said, "It's all because Su Li was careless and playful, and forgot to take a few more people with him when he went out. That's why he got into this trouble, and let the prince worry!"
Dongfang Ze said: "It doesn't matter to me, but if you, the daughter of the Prime Minister's Palace, are really sold to someone unknown... the face of the Prime Minister's Palace will not look good in the future!"
"Yes!" Su Xiangru quickly added, "Fortunately, the prince came to the rescue. I am really grateful!"
Su Li curled her lips, and the elopement matter was settled.
Mrs. Su responded and said, "Yes, it's all thanks to the prince this time! Qin'er, didn't you prepare the flower tea for the prince? Go and serve it."
With a subtle wink, Mrs. Su couldn't wait to change the subject again. Su Qin exited in response and returned a moment later with a cup of scented tea. Before the lid of the cup was opened, a strong aroma was already wafting in the air and reaching the tip of Su Li's nose. Su Li's expression suddenly changed, and his eyebrows frowned slightly. Looking up, she saw the white cup wall in Su Qin's hand, lined with ten-color petals of various shapes, all of which were blooming in boiling water. At first glance, it seemed as if hundreds of flowers were blooming in the snow in winter. It's good-looking.
Dongfangze's eyes flashed and he quickly looked into the cup.
Su Qin smiled flatteringly, as if presenting a treasure: "Qin'er heard that the prince loves flowers, so he specially ordered people to collect these rare flowers that are good for the body, removed the petals, dried them, and went through dozens of complicated procedures. , then refine it into tea, just waiting for the prince to enjoy it."
Dongfangze took the teacup and his eyes rested on her face for a moment, "The varieties are extraordinary and the aroma is rich. This hundred-flower tea looks pleasing to the eye, and the taste must not be bad."
. The eldest lady is interested! "
Su Qin hurriedly said: "As long as the prince likes it, Qin'er can do anything!" A touch of red clouds flew up her cheeks, Su Qin smiled like a flower, and said sweetly: "Your prince can rest assured, Qin'er has already taken the flowers before taking them." After checking their pharmacological properties, we can guarantee that every flower here is beneficial to the human body. Drinking it regularly can also extend your life!"
"Extension of life?" Dongfangze stared slightly and chuckled without distinguishing his emotions, "That is really a rare good thing! Prime Minister, you are so lucky!"
Su Xiangru cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, thank you! Although my daughter is occasionally willful, she is clever, outspoken and lively. Now she has reached the age of leaving the court, and I am worried about how to choose a good marriage for her!" After that, I took a look. Dongfangze.
Several other people at the table also looked over. Everyone knew that the Prime Minister had already given a hint and was just waiting for Dongfang Ze to express his position, but he always smiled lightly and had a calm expression, as if he had not heard these words at all.
Su Qin started to beat a drum in her heart, twisted her body, and shouted shyly: "Daddy!"
Mrs. Su smiled and said: "You are a young lady, there is nothing to be ashamed of when you get married. When you find your right husband, your father will make it a lively event for you. It will be even more glorious than the wedding of Princess Mingyu a few days ago." !”
"Who wants to compete with that Princess Mingyu!" Su Qin immediately pouted and said with contempt on her face: "That Princess Mingyu did something like that before she got married. It's so shameless, and she said that she She is the most beautiful woman in the Sheng Kingdom. I think she is the most shameless ****! She has completely disgraced our women. She deserves to be divorced by King Jing'an! Fortunately she died early, otherwise, I After seeing her...how can she have the nerve to come out and meet people!"
There was a crisp "clang" sound, and the spoon in Su Li's hand almost fell to the ground. She raised her head and looked slowly at Su Qin, her calm surface hiding the turmoil. Su Qin didn't realize it and smiled so proudly!
Dongfang Ze glanced over, raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's wrong with the second young lady?"
Su Li held her palms tightly under the table and said with a soft smile: "I'm fine. Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern."
Mrs. Su pretended to sigh, but she couldn't stop her gloating expression and said with ill intentions: "I didn't expect that the Regent, who was so famous for his reputation, would have such a corrupt daughter in the family, and even angered the princess to death. What a misfortune for the family! No wonder the Regent The king did not allow her to enter the ancestral temple, and just ordered someone to hastily bury the body in a small ravine... Amitabha, fortunately, my Qin'er is well-behaved and sensible, and never causes trouble.
. Otherwise, how can I have the face to meet the ancestors of the Su family in the future! "
Stepping on other people's pain points and taking the opportunity to improve yourself is like mother, like daughter! Su Li suddenly sneered in her heart, but what Mrs. Su said next made her heart ache involuntarily. Instead of entering the ancestral temple, she was hastily buried in a small ravine... Unexpectedly, her father was so cruel to her. Did he want her to become a lonely ghost
Su Li clenched her fists, almost suffocating with heartache, but Su Qin seemed to think that she didn't say enough, and even said: "Burying her in the ravine is a good treatment. Logically speaking, such a person should be immersed in a pig cage..."
"Sister, you've said it all!" Su Li finally interrupted, with a cold light hidden in the depths that no one could see, she said slowly in an extremely calm tone: "No matter how bad Princess Mingyu is, she is still your Majesty. A professed second-grade princess! What the regent does with his daughter is a matter for the regent’s palace. It’s not our turn to make irresponsible remarks! If word spreads, others will think that we, the prime minister’s palace, are all talking about gossip behind our backs. !”
After hearing this, Mrs. Su's face immediately dropped, and her displeasure was obvious. Su Qin was even more angry and was about to retort when Su Li added, "What's more, the prince is here today, and I'm afraid it would be disrespectful for my sister to speak so carelessly!"
The newly ignited anger was poured down by a basin of cold water. Su Qin's expression changed and she looked towards Dongfangze. She saw a flash of light in Dongfangze's eyes, but there was no wave on his face.
Mrs. Su glanced at Su Li and hurriedly smoothed things over and said, "Oh, look at us, the dishes are getting cold while we are just talking. Qin'er, why don't you pour wine and vegetables for the prince!"
"But the prince hasn't drunk this tea yet!" Su Qin shouted aggrievedly.
Dongfangze lowered his eyes and glanced into the cup. The petals floating densely on the water were so delicate and tempting to taste. He smiled slightly, but there was no smile in his eyes. He raised his glass and was about to drink, but suddenly he heard Su Li stop him: "Your Majesty, please wait!"
"Second Miss, what advice do you have?" Dongfangze paused slightly, and slowly looked towards her with eyes as deep as a cold pool.
Su Li frowned slightly and said calmly: "I don't dare to give you advice! But Su Li thinks that although this tea is fragrant, it has many varieties and is not suitable for use with wine! Your Majesty... you should drink it."
A look full of resentment was suddenly projected towards her. Su Qin turned to glare at her and warned angrily: "Sister, if you don't understand, don't talk nonsense!"
