Chapter 206 Protection

As New Year's Eve approaches, the capital is filled with the joy of the New Year everywhere, only Ling Qingyan pushed open the door of the court with resentment, with his two dark circles pressing against each other. When he saw Chen Xuhuai, his resentment became heavy again. a bit.

"Chen Chao, have you been idle lately?" A little dissatisfied in his tone.

Chen Xuhuai thought about it carefully and said, "Your Majesty issued an order to stop the court two days ago, and he has indeed been a little idle recently."

Ling Qingyan glared at him resentfully, lifted his robe and sat down opposite him, and said angrily: "Since you are so idle, why not count the gift list you want to give to the ministers on New Year's Eve."

"This is the affairs of the Ministry of Rites, I don't care." Chen Xuhuai smiled and poured him a cup of tea.

Ling Qingyan didn't expect him to take the tea, corrected his expression, and said, "What you asked me to do is done, but it was given in my name. Yao'er probably doesn't know it's you."

Chen Xuhuai lowered his eyes and savored the tea, and said lightly: "If you don't know, don't know."

Seeing him like this, Ling Qingyan felt inexplicably like the evil man who broke up the couple, and said, "The saint often said that sometimes you must have it in your destiny, and no matter how long you are in your destiny, don't force it. Now Yao'er is Princess Jing, and you and her are after all. If you are destined to be together, it may not be a good thing to let go earlier. Chen Chao, don’t fall on the day when you become a demon.”

Chen Xuhuai pulled the corners of his lips, and a glimmer flashed through his eyes, "You can persuade me so calmly now, but you have not met someone who can make you obsessed with it."

As he said that, he looked up at the lively crowd outside the window and continued, "Qingyan, the saint not only said that there is no time in his life, but also said - man is determined to surpass nature."

Ling Qingyan was speechless for a moment. In such matters, he had always said that he was just Chen Xuhuai, so he simply did not argue with him.

"Forget it, everything is up to you. You can remember our agreement."

"Of course I remember it."

Ling Qing sighed and said, "Fu Mingjue has not returned to the capital yet. Although there is a river in the capital, he can only stay outside the palace when he enters the palace on New Year's Eve. Everything in the palace changes, especially the Yanfu Palace. ”

Although he had already instructed Ling Youyao to walk with the eldest princess, after thinking about it, he still felt that the eldest princess was unreliable.

"You don't have to worry, the Empress Dowager is not in the mood to pay attention to Yao'er now." Chen Xuhuai's eyes were still falling outside the window.

"What do you mean?" Ling Qingyan saw that he had been looking outside and walked over curiously, "What are you looking at?"

There was no stranger on the street except for the vendors who shouted at the top of their voices. Ling Qingyan was about to speak when he suddenly saw a familiar figure falling out of the alley at the corner of the street.

"That's it." Ling Qingyan narrowed his eyes and said in surprise after seeing the man clearly: "Liu Hongxin, the only son of Zhongyi Bo Mansion?!"

"It's him right."

Ling Qingyan looked at him suspiciously and frowned and said, "Is it because of Liu Hongxin that you asked me to meet here today?"

"Qingyan, isn't I the kind of person who only knows how to calculate in your heart?" Chen Xuhuai asked with a smile.

Ling Qingyan said without hesitation: "Yes."

"." Chen Xuhuai's eyes were helpless and nodded in approval: "You said it right, I really only know how to calculate. I asked you here today because of Liu Hongxin."

Ling Qingyan couldn't help rolling his eyes, looking like "I just knew".

Chen Xuhuai paused for a moment, and then said with a smile: "It's not all because of Liu Hongxin."

Ling Qingyan was too lazy to guess the deep meaning of his words, so he only observed the movements on the street and asked, "How did you know that Liu Hongxin would appear here today?"

"Guess."

Ling Qingyan was speechless: "Chen Chao, I found that your nonsense skills are getting better and better."

Chen Xuhuai said, "I guessed it, I just knew in advance that he would come here for most of the day before leaving. He thought about coming over to try his luck, but he didn't expect that he would really ask us to meet him."

"When did you start paying attention to Liu Hongxin?"

Liu Hongxin is just one of the playboys, and there is nothing worth paying attention to. Ling Qingyan was able to recognize Liu Hongxin at a glance because someone wrote a book about Zhongyi Bo in the court some day ago, saying that he was unable to teach his children. Ling Qingyan didn't listen carefully. It was always trivial matters and was not worth mentioning.

Chen Xuhuai looked at Liu Hongxin holding his waist and climbed up from the ground, saying, "I don't want to pay attention to him either. I just saw Yao'er caring about him, so I came over and take a look."

"Yao'er?" Ling Qingyan became even more confused. Why did he have something to do with Youyao again?

"Why do you think Fu Mingjue took the initiative to ask for an order to send the second prince of Beidi away from Beijing?"

Ling Qingyan was stunned.

Before he could answer, Chen Xuhuai continued: "Before Yuan Yufeng left Beijing, he hired a killer to destroy Yao'er's reputation, but the plan failed and instead shot himself in the foot."

Ling Qingyan's face became heavier and he was not aware of this. "I didn't expect that Yuan Yushu was so bold that he dared to attack Yao'er in the capital."

"He hates Fu Mingjue, and naturally he hates Yao'er, but there is one person's work."

"What did you find?" Ling Qingyan asked afterwards.

Chen Xuhuai's eyes darkened and said, "She thought she was doing it perfectly, but there is no airtight wall in this world? From Princess Duanyang to Ling Ling, I thought she would learn from it, but I didn't expect her to get better. It's rampant. It has to be said that Su Lingxi is more courageous than those ordinary women in the boudoir, but unfortunately she used the wrong courage."

At first, he did not think of Su Lingxi. It was not until the news in the palace that the Empress Dowager intended to marry Duke Yu's mansion and the Ji family that he became suspicious.

In the previous case of Ling Ling, Chen Xuhuai had investigated Duke Yu's past, but ignored Su Lingxi.

"On the day of the Queen Mother's birthday party, Yuan Yushu had an intersection with Su Lingxi. I think it was probably at that time that they reached a deal."

Ling Qingyan didn't know Su Lingxi. When he heard these words, he didn't react and asked: "What do you mean is Su Lingxi's tricks behind this?"

"Well, Yao'er has a good relationship with the eldest lady of the Cai family. Su Lingxi will choose Ji Shuyu because of this."

Hearing this, Ling Qingyan looked at him with a complicated expression: "How could you know so clearly?"

Chen Xuhuai did not intend to hide it and said, "As you think, I sent someone to Yao'er."

"You!" Ling Qingyan stood up with a bang, with a little anger on his eyebrows, "Chen Chao, do you know what you are doing now? Don't forget, you promised me not to interfere with everything about Yao'er again! ”

Faced with his questioning, Chen Xuhuai did not change at all, and he only said softly: "I know very well what I am doing."

"Secondly, I always remember what I promised you."

"Also, this is not intervention, it is protection."

Ling Qingyan was speechless by him. He didn't know that Chen Xuhuai was protecting Youyao? But this also shows that he would not give up, whether it was now or in the future.

The atmosphere inside the house is a bit congested.

After a while of silence, Chen Xuhuai sighed silently, looked at Ling Qingyan with frowning, and said, "Eliminate the fire and take you to the show later."

Ling Qingyan: "."

Can this be solved by watching a show?
