Chapter 846: Princess Mansion
After Zhou Huang took a look at Prince Zhou, he said, "Since this is my will, no one is allowed to change it, understand?"
Crown Prince Zhou immediately bowed his head and said, "Yes, I have made a note."
Emperor Zhou said: "Get up."
Prince Zhou tremblingly said: "Thank you, Father."
Prince Zhou has lost the power of the Yang family these days, and now he lives every day with trepidation. Naturally, he dare not make Emperor Zhou angry anymore, otherwise, he, the prince, might really have made it.
After the dust-cleaning feast, Xu Qing returned to the residence, and the sky was already dark.
When he first arrived, he didn't know where Zhou Guo's entertainment programs were at night, and he seemed to have nothing else to do except rest at sunset.
But when he returned to the bedroom and tossed and turned, he couldn't fall asleep no matter what, so he simply gave up sleep, stood up and walked out, picked up Qinggong and jumped onto the roof, lay on the tiles, and looked at the bright moon in the sky like a jade plate.
At this moment, a small jar was suddenly handed over to Xu Qing, Xu Qing turned around and saw Xiao Ye next to him, Xiao Ye handed over a small jar of wine and asked, "Drink?"
Xu Qing took a sip of the wine that Xiao Ye handed over, and asked, "Why is Brother Xiao here?"
Xiao Ye handed over a piece of paper and said, "This is the residence where King Loulan came to Zhou's capital, why don't we make him overnight?"
Xu Qing couldn't help but widen his eyes when he heard it: "Where did you get it?"
Xiao Ye said: "Let Yiwei, who has been lurking in the capital of Zhou Kingdom, get it."
Xu Qing said: "What's the use of being the King of Loulan? There are so many small countries in the Western Regions. Today there will be King Xiaowan, and tomorrow there will be King Gumo. Do we just happen to be envoys to Zhou every time?"
Xiao Ye said: "Then what is Brother Xu going to do? Princess Mingyue will marry after the new year."
Xu Qing said: "The affairs of the people of Zhou should be resolved by the people of Zhou after all."
Speaking of which, Xu Qing looked at Xiao Ye and said, "Brother Xiao, why are you worrying about this?"
Xiao Ye said: "Let me take care of Xue'er, then Brother Xu, why are you worrying about Princess Mingyue's marriage or not?"
Xu Qing said, "Let me take care of my wife."
...
second day
When Xu Qing woke up, it was already daylight, and his head was still aching. This was the reason why he didn't drink the hangover soup after drinking. Of course, this also had something to do with the quality of the wine.
However, there is no way to do it. In this era, winemaking conditions are limited, and the wine used to buy drunk is a headache, and the high-end wine is not strong enough to drink.
When Xu Qing washed up and went out, he happened to meet Xiao Ye.
Xiao Ye asked: "Brother Xu, are you going to find Princess Mingyue?"
Xu Qing explained: "When I came here, the lady wrote a letter to Mingyue, and I sent it over."
Xiao Ye nodded and said nothing.
After Xu Qing went out, an envoy came in and looked at Xiao Ye cupped hands and said, "His Royal Highness, Zhou Guo asked us about the time of negotiation, and they made preparations very early."
Xiao Ye said: "Let's just say that our mission has just arrived, and we are not acclimatized to the environment, and we are in poor health. We will suspend the negotiations and push back some matters."
The messenger asked, "His Royal Highness, how long shall we wait?"
Xiao Ye waved his hand and said, "It depends on your mood."
After saying that, Xiao Ye left without looking back, leaving only the young messenger in a mess in the cold wind.
...
When Xu Qing walked to the Princess Mansion, he couldn't help frowning. This is not the shape of the Princess Mansion. It is clearly just a random large-scale private house, and took some time to renovate it.
But think about it, how can a complete princess mansion be built according to the shape in more than a month?
Xu Qing walked to the main entrance, looked at the porter and said, "I want to see the princess, please inform me."
The concierge shook his head and said: "Princess doesn't see anyone, please go back."
Xu Qing said: "I am the princess' friend."
The concierge shook his head and said: "The princess has given her orders a few days ago, except for the sixth highness, the princess has not seen anyone."
Xu Qing couldn't help but sighed when he heard the concierge's words, besides Li Xun, Li Mingyue wouldn't have any friends in the capital.
Xu Qing turned and left the main entrance, and after turning around, she found that the concierge of the princess mansion almost didn't exist, so Xu Qing found a corner and easily turned in.
Li Mingyue's princess mansion is very cold, and there are not many servants inside and out, so Xu Qing doesn't have to worry about being discovered by others.
Xu Qing went straight to the door of the main house, but there was no one in sight.
At this time, the door was closed tightly, Xu Qing stepped forward and knocked on the door.
Not long after Li Mingyue opened the door, she saw Xu Qing standing outside the door.
Li Mingyue suddenly felt pleasantly surprised, and couldn't help throbbing in her heart, but then became flustered: "Xu... Mr. Xu..."
Xu Qing looked at Li Mingyue and said, "The concierge wouldn't let me in, so I climbed over the wall..."
Li Mingyue lowered her head and said, "Next time Mingyue tells them to do it."
Xu Qing asked: "Is it not convenient for me to go in?"
Li Mingyue shook her head in a panic, finally bit her lips lightly, stepped out of the way and said, "No...no, please come in."
After Xu Qing walked in, he found that although the main house was simple, it was carefully decorated, and all kinds of furniture were arranged in an orderly manner.
There are still calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall. Judging from the handwriting, they should be written by Li Mingyue herself, and the paintings are also drawn by Li Mingyue herself. It can be seen that every plant and tree in the calligraphy and painting, every sentence and word are put with great care.
And these words and sentences were clearly written when he and Zhao Guo asked questions, and Li Mingyue drew the picture according to his own imagination.
The cakes on the table were also made by Li Mingyue herself. Her skill in making cakes has always been very good, except for these simple displays.
Although this was only Li Mingyue's temporary residence before she got married, Li Mingyue also tried her best to decorate it and lived every hard-won day seriously.
After Li Mingyue asked Xu Qing to sit down, she went out to prepare hot tea for Xu Qing.
She doesn't like tea herself, so the pot is just ordinary hot water.
While Li Mingyue went out to get hot water to make tea, Xu Qing looked around the house.
There is still a painting case in the room, and there seems to be an unfinished painting on the case.
After Xu Qing walked over, he discovered that the painting on the table was clearly a painting of himself!
And it's a full body photo.
The clothes are the clothes from yesterday's dust-cleaning banquet, and the background painting is not finished yet, but it should be the scene at the gate of the imperial city that day.
No wonder she looked so flustered when she saw Own just now...
Just when Xu Qing was in a daze, Li Mingyue came back with the teapot that had already made tea. When she saw Xu Qing standing in front of her painting table, she couldn't help but panic, and a gust of heat rushed into her body. pouring into the face...
