During this period, Qin Fanghao tried many tricks to get Xie Xun to spend the night in her courtyard, and even tried to persuade Xie Xun to send her to a nunnery, but all failed without exception.
Qingzhi vividly reported all these things to Qin Rushuang. Qin Rushuang only regarded it as amusement and let it go.
"Then should we arrange for some people to go to the nunnery?"
"Yes, of course. The accompanying maid will arrange for a few of our people to go in. You don't have to use all our people. Let Qiu Ning also follow."
Qin Rushuang is now more and more curious about Qiu Ning. She wants to know what role Qiu Ning played in this matter.
"Yes, I know this. By the way, Qin Fang's carriage should be leaving the house by now. Would you like the princess to go and say a few words?"
Qin Rushuang thought for a long time and asked, "Has the prince gone?"
Qingzhi nodded: "The prince has gone. He should be delivered to the door of the palace."
Qin Rushuang stood up and said, "Then let's go take a look too."
When Qin Rushuang arrived at the door of the palace, she saw Qin Fanghao pulling Xie Xun's sleeve reluctantly, "Your Highness... I really can't let you go..."
In front of so many people, Xie Xun couldn't wave her sleeves and leave, so she had to comfort her a few more words, telling her to take good care of her baby.
When Qin Fanghao saw Qin Rushuang coming, he originally wanted to taunt him a few words, but when he thought that he could not protect himself now, he stopped thinking and whispered a few words to Xie Xun, and finally got into the carriage reluctantly.
She thought Qin Fanghao was leaving soon, but Qin Rushuang was about to turn around and go back home when she suddenly heard a burst of crackling firecrackers.
The horse in Qin Fanghao's carriage was frightened and suddenly panicked. Thanks to the coachman's experience, he calmed the horse down in time.
Even if this was the case, Qin Fanghao was also frightened.
But Qin Rushuang took a closer look and saw that it was Shen Xiaoyang!
He led a group of people to set off firecrackers not far from the palace.
As soon as Xie Xun saw Shen Xiaoyang appear, his face suddenly darkened.
"Master Shen, why did you come to the gate of the palace to set off firecrackers for no reason?"
"Oh, my lord, I don't know. Shen Ji Pastry has opened a new branch. Doesn't the opening of this store involve setting off firecrackers?"
Xie Xun couldn't bear it anymore, "Your shop is opened in my palace?!"
"No, no! That shop is quite far from here, but..." Shen Xiaoyang changed his voice: "But this law does not stipulate that when a new shop opens, firecrackers must be set off at the door! The official just thinks that this
The road is very open, so if we set off firecrackers here, it won't disturb the people."
"Besides, these firecrackers are festive and can remove bad luck. I think the road in front of the palace is quite deserted, so it would be a good idea to set them off here."
Qin Rushuang was amused by Shen Xiaoyang. He was venting his anger on her behalf.
What opened a new shop? Shen Xiaoyang obviously learned that Qin Fanghao was leaving the palace today, so he set off firecrackers in front of his house to ward off bad luck, which meant that he finally sent away Qin Fanghao, the god of plague.
What Qin Rushuang can understand, why can't Xie Xun understand it?
But Shen Xiaoyang was right, he was free to set off firecrackers wherever he wanted, and he couldn't blame him just because he set off a bunch of firecrackers in front of his house.
So I could only say with a cold face, "Master Shen is really in a good mood."
"Where is it?" Shen Xiaoyang smiled and bowed with his hands in hand, which made Xie Xun even more uncomfortable.
Shen Xiaoyang, on the other hand, ignored Xie Xun's cold face. Instead, as if he had just seen Qin Rushuang, he said in surprise: "Oh, the princess is out too?"
"Long time no see, princess."
Qin Rushuang saluted: "Long time no see, Mr. Shen."
Xie Xun cursed in his heart, watching these two people salute each other, he cursed in his heart, didn't they just meet them in a restaurant in the south of the city that day?
He wanted Qin Rushuang to go back home, but Shen Xiaoyang spoke before him.
"It's better to come by chance than by chance. My shop has newly opened and some new pastries have come out. Princess, do you want to come and try them together?"
"OK."
"Need not."
Qin Rushuang and Xie Xun's words overlapped, but the answers they gave were completely different.
Xie Xun frowned: "Is there any pastry that the chef in the palace can't make? If you really want to eat it, it's not impossible to ask the royal chef in the palace to make it for you!"
"Oh, my lord, you just don't understand. Drinking tea and eating cakes is all about being pleasant and interesting. I have invited a famous storyteller in the city to my newly opened pastry shop. It's hard to get a ticket! I think the princess will definitely know how to come. like!"
Qin Rushuang originally wanted to refuse Shen Xiaoyang's invitation when she heard that Xie Xun would not let her go.
After all, there was nothing important outside, so she still had to follow Xie Xun's wishes and didn't want to refute his face because of a trivial matter.
But the storyteller in Shen Xiaoyang's mouth aroused her interest.
It's been a long time since she went to a teahouse to listen to a book.
"It's a bit boring to stay in this mansion every day. Since Lord Shen invites you, I'll go and have a look."
After Qin Rushuang finished speaking, she cast a questioning look at Xie Xun: "Your Majesty, is it okay?"
Xie Xun had a dark face and wanted to refuse but couldn't say it, so he could only think of a compromise.
"Yes, I, the King, will go with you."
"I would like to go and see how good this storyteller can be." Xie Xun gritted his teeth.
The three of them went to the Shen family's newly opened pastry shop together, and it was indeed overcrowded.
Shen Xiaoyang arranged a private room upstairs.
The private room has a wide view. When you open the window, you can see the storyteller below. You don't have to crowd with the common people, so it is very comfortable.
The waiter served several plates of special pastries, and Qin Rushuang couldn't wait to ask, "When will it start?"
Shen Xiaoyang smiled fondly and said, "As long as you want to watch it, you can start at any time."
With a "bang", Xie Xun put the tea in his hand on the table with such force that it even splashed on the table.
Shen Xiaoyang didn't seem to see the anger in Xie Xun's eyes, and said: "Oh, is the tea in this shop not to your taste? Wait a minute, I will ask the waiter to bring you another pot."
Qin Rushuang glanced at Xie Xun but didn't take it to heart.
Xie Xun had been rude to her many times, and this time was not lacking. She was now more interested in what the storyteller was about to say.
Shen Xiaoyang did what he said, and after a while, an energetic old man who was over sixty years old walked onto the stage.
He opened the fan and said, "Today, I will tell you a story about a rich man ruining a marriage."
…
The storybook is a book of good stories, and the storyteller is well-deserved, full of witty words and vivid words.
Qin Rushuang listened with great interest, and Shen Xiaoyang was also very satisfied.
Xie Xun was the only one who felt like sitting on pins and needles.
He had read this story, but he didn't expect it to be spoken out in front of Qin Rushuang.
Thinking again that he had imitated the protagonist in the storybook and sent winter plums to Qin Rushuang, Xie Xun felt very ashamed.
The storyteller just happened to talk about the story of the rich girl's destined prince who had extraordinary martial arts skills and picked flowers from high branches just for the beauty's smile.
Qin Rushuang suddenly turned her head and glanced at Xie Xun with a half-smile.
If she remembered correctly, one of the three story books she saw in Xie Xun's study that day was "A Thousand Gold Regret on Marriage".
