Chapter 204: Chapter 204
Qi Qi is not the type to be timid. The more challenges there are, the more motivated she will be.
Now that you have decided to attend the banquet, you should actively prepare for what needs to be prepared. If you sharpen your weapons before the battle, it will be a waste if you are not happy.
However, before that, Pei Sheng had to take her to Prince Kang's Mansion.
Since I agreed to show it to my eldest brother Pei Zhao, I had to go there.
"Go and have a look. If you can, try to cure him. If you can't, it doesn't matter. I'm here. My eldest brother has been sick for more than 20 years. He has been treated by countless famous doctors, but none of them have much effect. You don't have to be burdened." Pei Shengla Hands coated with lacquer Qi gave instructions as they walked, chatting lightly.
"I know, I'll do my best." Qi Qi felt warm in her heart as she listened to his ramble. He thought about her and provided her with a solid backing so that she would have no worries. It was extremely considerate.
"Do you have a good relationship with King Kang?"
Now was the critical moment for the battle for the throne, and she couldn't help but feel curious. Others might not know it, but he should know her strength. Wasn't he afraid that she had cured King Kang and made his rivals stronger?
"Well, how should I put it?" A look of helplessness flashed across Pei Sheng's face, and he sighed, "Being in the royal family, there are too many no choice but to do it. A brother who comes out of the belly has different thoughts, let alone those of us who are separated by the belly. .
We brothers all have a normal relationship. With the eldest brother...the eldest brother is the legitimate son, and he has been weak since he was a child. He is always surrounded by a large group of people, and there is basically no chance to get along with him.
Although the tone of his speech was not high and neither urgent nor slow, there was an invisible momentum that pressed down on Liu Ziqing, making him feel a little out of breath and bending his back slightly.
While talking, the two of them had already reached the gate, and saw a carriage coming outside. Was there a guest?
The two stopped.
On the side, a young boy who was already smart helped to move the gift boxes off the carriage and piled them half as high as a person.
Qi Qi watched him turn around, his slightly thin body looking a little miserable.
"Cousin." Qi Qi felt something unspeakable in her heart. She shouted softly and turned her head slightly to avoid his gaze.
"Thanks to Prince Jin for your love, Liu is grateful. If I can do something practical for the people, Liu will be obliged." Liu Ziqing saw that the news of taking office was exposed in person, so he straightened his back slightly and expressed his position openly.
Pei Shengsheng looked at her unpredictably and said with a smile, "I only do what I have to do..."
"Meet the prince." Liu Ziqing saluted Pei Sheng, and then looked at Qi Qi steadily.
"What, you can't bear to leave?"
Now, let’s take a look.
The more this happens, the more calm we have to be. Even if he goes through the back door, so what? As long as he is an honest official and serves the people wholeheartedly, he will dare to speak upright and behave upright.
Pei Sheng felt better now. He held her big hand tightly and said with a satisfied smile, "That's not enough. You can only care about me."
"Your Majesty has praised Liu. Liu is just a white man. He dare not be called an adult." Liu Ziqing lowered his head.
"Thank you very much." Liu Ziqing did not hesitate, he saluted and thanked him in one go, and then talked about the purpose of coming this time, "Liu also wants to congratulate the prince on the birth of his son. This time he came here precisely to send the congratulatory gift entrusted by the King of Jin. ."
King Jin knew somewhere that he was involved with his cousin, and asked him to come over quickly, just to cause trouble for King Shen.
Hey, this person is still stubborn and childish.
The corner of Liu Ziqing's mouth twitched slightly, feeling a little sad, but he soon felt relieved.
"Well, that's good, congratulations." Pei Sheng said lightly, sounding without any sincerity.
However, no matter what, after breaking the bones and connecting the tendons, the same blood flows in our bodies. Putting aside those fights, I still hope that my eldest brother can be well..."
Pei Sheng half-raised his chin and looked into the distance with some arrogance, and said in a low voice, "What do you think?"
To be honest, both of them didn't like Liu Ziqing at first, and they looked down upon his indecisiveness.
Pei Sheng chuckled and said nothing.
Pei Sheng's slightly sour words brought Qi Qi back to her senses. She glanced at him with disdain and said with a slightly teasing smile, "What are you talking about? What? Are you jealous? Huh?"
"We still have something to do, so I'll invite you over next time I get the chance."
He had already prepared in his heart, and now that he was not allowed to enter the gate of Prince Shen's palace, it would be easier to explain to Prince Jin when he returned.
Pei Sheng couldn't help but raise his eyebrows after hearing this, "Aren't you going to Qingzhou and Yang County to take up the post? As the eighth-grade county magistrate, it's not an exaggeration to call yourself an adult."
Qi Qi felt angry and funny, so instead of being angry with him, she explained, "You are overthinking."
Pei Sheng slowly talked about his helplessness, Qi Qi listened silently, and her mind could not help but think of those cruel battles for imperial power in the history books.
Liu Ziqing looked at the two people who were in love with each other. They were a perfect match for each other. They were really a match made in heaven. Haha...
"Then I won't disturb Liu anymore. I'll leave first." Liu Ziqing bowed slightly, stood up and looked at Qi Qi. He stopped talking, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Take care!"
In fact, the King of Jin looked down upon him so much that he was not that important.
"Master Liu, what is this?" Pei Sheng frowned slightly, gently rubbing the back of Qi Qi's hand with his thumb, his tone was slightly cold.
"You, how are you..." Liu Ziqing was slightly surprised, then looked a little confused.
This is very straightforward, just a fake politeness.
She hesitated slightly and asked softly, "Then... do you want to get into that position?"
Pei Sheng glanced at the thing. It was as plain as water. Someone would come and take care of it in a while, so he didn't need to worry.
Hey, it’s not easy to be a prince. Behind everyone is a force. Even if we don’t want to fight, as long as we are in this position, we cannot be alone.
Sure enough, seeing him like this, Pei Sheng and Qi Qi looked at him with a hint of complexity, and then looked at him with a gentler look.
The carriage stopped at the gate of Prince Shen's Mansion, opened the curtain, and the person who stepped out was none other than Liu Ziqing, who had come to deliver gifts for Prince Jin.
"Domineering!" Qi Qi glanced at him with a smile and said nothing about his oath. There were so many people she cared about, and he was definitely not at the top of the list. However, there was no need to say such things bluntly.
Pei Sheng naturally knew his position in Qi Qi's heart, but he still said this, probably taking this opportunity to express his inner expectations.
The two held hands and got into the carriage together and headed to Prince Kang's Mansion.
In fact, Prince Kang's Mansion is right next door, but because it's a prince's palace, even if it's a street away from here, the carriage will take a while.
