After Qin Shou'an finished speaking, he suddenly thought that both Tang Wanrong and Prince Nan knew about the Queen Mother's problems. So would the Queen Mother really attend the banquet?
If the Queen Mother is not at the banquet, where will she go? Is she like this woman, enjoying the comfort and purity of living alone somewhere?
One thing is certain, the Queen Mother will never be around here. He just saw Chong Huamei leaving here with his own eyes, and he must have gone to guard the Queen Mother.
In such a residence far away from the palace, Longyin Guards and Chong Hua Mei must be closely surrounding the Queen Mother.
Thinking like this, his eyes fell on the woman with half her face covered in front of him. Why was she alone in the bathroom, covered with a veil?
Could it be that she, like the Queen Mother, has some reasons for staying away from the crowd?
Qin Shou'an could see that her status was as noble as that of Tang Wanrong, but the polo team members from Nanjun Wang's side were still a little constrained in facing her.
It was difficult for him to figure out that among the noble women in Longyin City, in addition to the wives and young ladies of various houses, there were also princesses, princesses, county owners, county owners, etc.
In short, no matter who the woman in front of you is, it is possible that she is not the Queen Mother. The two are so close to each other. The Queen Mother has already developed a physiological disgust, and then called Longyin Guards to arrest Qin Shouan.
"What I originally said, as long as you don't run into the Queen Mother, is that she has some hidden diseases." The woman chuckled:
"If you conflicted with the Queen Mother on other matters, she might not punish you. In short, as long as you stand firm in everything, who can punish you unreasonably? Nothing in this world is more important than public order and good customs.
”
Qin Shou'an thought about it and realized that this was indeed the case. Just like many of the things he did after returning to Longyin City, even though he was impeached by the Court of Admonition, it was precisely because he could not say anything from the standpoint of public order and good customs that the palace has always been
Turning a blind eye.
However, if a person always abides by public order and good customs, he is almost a saint. When it concerns the country and the country, the Queen Mother may not be so principled.
Maybe she was sharpening her knife right now, and then she looked at the shiny and sharp knife and showed a ferocious smile: Prince, from now on, can you call me Xiao Anzi?
Qin Shou'an couldn't help but shudder, he closed his legs and his posture became more awkward.
"Is it cold?" The woman saw him shivering, turned to look at the window, raised her fingers, and then walked over and closed it. She closed the window for him personally today, which was also a sign of intimacy.
"It's not that... I'm not that weak yet. But thank you for your kindness." Qin Shou'an quickly explained, not wanting her to think that he was that weak.
You must know that those female polo players are all wearing thin clothes and splashing water on the beach. They are dripping wet and they are not necessarily afraid of the cold. If he is not even as good as a woman, wouldn't it be looked down upon?
"Then you just thought that you would be punished by the Queen Mother, so you shuddered?" The woman glanced at him, with a hint of anger in her eyebrows, "What bad thing did you do to make you feel so guilty?"
Qin Shou'an estimated that the relationship between this woman and the Queen Mother was closer than that between the Queen Mother and Tang Wanrong.
She defends the Queen Mother very naturally, and seems to dislike other people's misunderstanding and dislike of the Queen Mother.
Qin Shou'an chatted with Tang Wanrong about the Queen Mother in the palace. Tang Wanrong was just worried that Qin Shou'an would provoke the Queen Mother. She did not take the initiative to defend her, but occasionally she would talk about the yin and yang in the palace.
"No, no." Qin Shou'an waved his hands repeatedly. Everything he did was good. Even if he broke into Huiyinshang Yin Pond now, there can't be anything wrong with it, because the flag of Prince Langya's Palace hangs here! p>
"Really?" The woman raised her chin slightly, her voice was slightly stern and commanding, but there was a slight smile in the corner of her eyes, "Why don't you explain it first? If I am really caught in the future, and I happen to meet him again, what else can I do?
Let me tell you a few words."
Qin Shou'an thought for a moment and then noticed that the Queen Mother was eyeing his eldest baby. No one could help him, but there was no need to keep the carriage secret.
"I came here today not to watch polo. I went to Dongmen Ferry to buy fish in the morning...Don't look at me like that. The carp I bought is still hanging on a tree outside Huiyinshangyin Pond.
."
Qin Shou'an then saw that the carriage transporting red poppy paste was switched out along the way, and then escorted the convoy to stop outside Huiyin Changyin Pond. He wanted to find out who was behind the scenes, so he briefly explained what happened when he sneaked in.<
/p>
The woman listened to him quietly, her expression as normal, neither angrily accusing these people of being bold, nor speaking of her guesses and understanding.
After Qin Shouan finished speaking, he looked at her again.
This woman's beauty looks like she is only in her twenties, but she has a mature flavor about her, elegance refined over many years.
This kind of profound temperament is by no means an ordinary pampering. It requires sufficient experience and depth of thought in order to become more and more mellow like fine wine as it ages.
"Sit down first." The woman went to the high bamboo chair by the window and sat down. She was surrounded by bamboo forests. The name of the house was Zhushashan House, and the house used a lot of bamboo furniture.
Qin Shou'an sat on the side of her and looked at her tight hip line after sitting down. He couldn't help but remember that he was lying under the mezzanine just now and she was squatting on it. No wonder he mistakenly thought it was a millstone wrapped in cloth.<
/p>
This rich flavor seems to be comparable only to Chong Hua Mei. Their bodies are very similar, while Tang Wanrong is slightly inferior.
"Are you sure?" The woman's fingers tapped lightly on the handle of the chair. Whether this matter is big or small, she is inclined to believe it, but whether she wants to deal with it today, she has not yet
Make a decision.
"Of course." Qin Shou'an hesitated. This woman always gave people a strange feeling. Her words and deeds, as well as her various responses after discovering Qin Shou'an, were somewhat beyond Qin Shou'an's expectations and were not in line with ordinary people.
logical behavior.

For example, at this time, she should have asked, how did Qin Shou'an know that those carriages contained red poppy grass paste? What position did he stand in, why, etc., so he had to investigate this matter.
She has none.
Qin Shou'an suddenly understood that this woman was probably a female officer of Longyin Guard. Just like Chong Hua Mei, they did not care about how something happened that might involve the palace, but only cared about how to deal with it and avoid it.
There will be results they don't want to see.
Now she is only concerned about how to deal with this matter. Everything else is not important to her. That is the responsibility of each government department.
"I understand...don't act rashly tonight, I will inform the Queen Mother to handle it as appropriate." A gentle smile appeared on the woman's face under the veil.
On the surface, the things he does always seem to be a bit ridiculous, but if you investigate carefully, you will find that his starting point is always correct.
As long as it is in line with public order and good customs, and the truth is on his side, it will be easy to give him a voice when the court continues to criticize him.
This child is not crooked.
"Thank you. Why did you say not to act rashly tonight?"
Qin Shou'an asked directly. Although meeting her for the first time was actually a little unpleasant, meeting her today made it easier to talk to her than to Tang Wanrong.
In fact, there is nothing wrong with Tang Wanrong, she is just too conceited.
Qin Shou'an asked her if she could think of a bunch of things, and then carefully investigate and pick out a plausible answer to reply to Qin Shou'an.
The woman pointed to the clay stove.
The outermost layer of the clay stove is made of black charcoal-colored bamboo, with an iron frame in the middle. The innermost part is the clay stove, with the charcoal inside burning red and white waves surging in the kettle.
Qin Shouan understood what she meant and went to make a pot of tea.
Qin Shou'an couldn't match the bossy attitude of this woman. It gave the impression that even if she knew Qin Shou'an's identity, even if there were other princes, ministers, nobles and nobles standing in front of her, she would still give orders as a matter of course.
Others serve her.
Does she know his identity? Does she know that his name is Qin Shouan?
She has not asked, seemingly because she knows his true identity and does not need to ask more, but considering her specialness, she cannot figure it out with common sense.
The woman took a sip of tea and then came back from her thoughts, "Prince Nanjun prepared a huge fireworks display at night, but he actually wanted to perform a demonstration of destroying the red poppy paste in front of the Queen Mother."
"Son of a bitch!" Qin Shou'an couldn't help but cursed angrily despite his cultivation:
"He wants to destroy the reputation of cigarettes, and he also wants a huge profit from the red poppy grass ointment! Taking advantage of Rong Qingshu's incident, he took advantage of the situation and took advantage of it. Sure enough, he wanted to talk about corruption and perverting the law. He is greedy and the royal family is still smart. If I hadn't found out
, isn’t the palace completely darkened by the black patent leather lanterns?”
The woman frowned slightly and grabbed the armrest of the bamboo chair with her fingers. This person is really unscrupulous. You called Prince Nan a son of a bitch... Even she would not scold Prince Nan like that.
But it’s not unacceptable to scold your mother. Don’t scold your father, grandpa, etc. It’s not a big problem.
Seeing that he was angry, the woman also made Qin Shouan a cup of tea:
"The royal family has always been like this. It's just that the Queen Mother has always been extremely strict with the princes, so the situation has not reached the level of resolution. Prince Nanjun likes to show off, and the palace consumes a lot of money. If he doesn't think of more ways, how can he support it?" "Look what you said, the bigger the stall, the bigger the scene. If he wants to support his prince's reputation, he should cut down his income and steal the red poppy paste in a serious manner? He doesn't feel ashamed." Although the woman told him not to act rashly, Qin Shou'an had already begun to think about how to make the Prince of Nanjun reveal his true colors in front of the Queen Mother.
"Yes." The woman nodded and motioned for Qin Shou'an to drink tea. She rarely poured tea for others, and then said:
"What Prince Nanjun did is not pretty, but it seems to have nothing to do with you. Why are you so angry? It seems like you just can't stand it, right?"
Qin Shou'an took a sip of tea and realized that this kind of woman usually served the Queen Mother. She could be said to be aloof and completely ungrounded.
At that moment, he explained clearly the hidden dangers of Rong Qingshu's use of red poppy grass ointment to control prostitutes, which harmed the country and the people, and shaken the country's foundation.
Although there was little hope, he was still willing to give it a try. If this woman occasionally mentioned it to the Queen Mother, she might be able to completely defeat the officials in the court who wanted to promote the deregulation of red poppy grass ointment.
"His Nanjun Wang lineage has lived through several dynasties and generations, and maybe he has no chance of wealth. I..."
Qin Shou'an got so angry that he almost said that I am a hereditary prince, and I share the honor with the New Qin Palace for generations. Naturally, I have to carefully protect the country, but I stopped in time.
The woman nodded slightly, but did not pursue the question further. There was only a soft and gentle light in her eyes, showing some appreciation.
"Leave this matter to me. It's okay if the Queen Mother doesn't know about it. She won't spare Prince Nan lightly if she knows. Red poppy grass ointment must not spread in the land of Xin Qin." The woman promised softly. p>
This child's spirit is much higher and more upright than that of other princes in Beijing.
It seems to be nonsense, but it is very organized. He does not rely on his identity to blindly contradict, but carefully investigates and then waits for an opportunity to act.
Even if he hadn't bumped into her today, he would have found a way to punish Prince Nan in the future, but bumping into her accidentally made it easier for him to achieve his goal.
Looking at his facial features and posture, the woman just felt more and more comfortable. It was really rare to see an outstanding junior, and his descendants must also be excellent.
"I can't thank you enough." Qin Shou'an stood up and bowed his hands seriously. This is not just a matter of breathing out a sigh of relief, it will save thousands of people.
He has never forgotten his origins, so he cannot tolerate this kind of thing at all.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
If it was for other things, he would be grateful, and most likely he just wanted to find an opportunity to repay others and return favors. There is definitely a difference from his current attitude.
"It's a matter of duty." The woman's heart was filled with joy. What Xin Qin needed most was the kind of clansmen who knew that Guo Zuo and themselves were one and the same:
"You just need to wait and see what happens. By the way, have you eaten? Are you hungry?"
Qin Shou'an didn't feel hungry at first, but after hearing what she said, he felt a little hungry.
Originally, being hungry for a while didn't have much impact. The main reason is that I have been tracking invisibly today, especially after arriving at Huiyin Shang Yin Pond, and acting under the eyes of Zhong Hua Mei and Long Yin Wei, and my energy consumption increased significantly. p>
"I'll get you something to eat." The woman stood up, patted the back of his hand gently, and motioned for him to sit down and not leave.
After she turned around, she shook the hand she just patted her with.
Originally, I just wanted to show my intimacy, so I did this action unconsciously. The moment I touched the back of his hand, I felt like I was going to be hurt.
Chen Yizhai usually diagnoses her pulse by wrapping gold wire around her wrist, inserting needles from a distance, etc. She must not touch her, otherwise the skin touched by the man will cause rashes, redness, or even burns. p>
But not now... This child can not only approach her at will, but even have skin-to-skin contact.
Although not being able to get close to men on weekdays has no impact on her, and she has never had any charming thoughts about men in her heart, the sudden appearance of such a junior who she can get close to still makes her feel a little happy.
If he is obedient, well-behaved, and filial in the future, can she also invite him over to Cheng Huan, and she will reach out and touch his head to show her praise?
There are almost no juniors who would make her praise her like this... It would be nice if she doesn't get angry and have a headache.
"Try these."
Qin Shouan saw the woman coming over with a plate. In addition to dessert fruits, there were also deer legs sprinkled with chili peppers!
"I'll eat this first." Qin Shou'an picked up the deer leg and started to chew it.
He was suspicious by nature, but he did not consider the possibility of poison in food.
Firstly, his intuition was that the other party would not use this method if he really wanted to do something to him. Secondly, of course, he would not be poisoned at all.
He has eaten arsenic, and Hedinghong is just a seasoning. Isn’t pufferfish poisonous enough? He can even boil his ovaries in one pot.
The woman saw that he spoke without hesitation, and couldn't help but feel happy. It seemed that he was very close to her, and he didn't have any doubts about things.
She also ate some pastries herself.
What surprised her was that sitting next to such a big meat eater, her appetite improved a lot, and she even ate a piece of deer tendon.
The people who usually dine with her are all pampered women. Everyone pays special attention to etiquette and manners. When drinking soup or eating vegetables, they will not knock the tableware, swallow or chew without making a sound.
Qin Shou'an ate happily, but she didn't feel rude or rude. Instead, she felt happy, just like looking at those children who are very good at eating and grow up strong and healthy casually.
Think about it, he was a bit round when he was a child, so he was very edible, right? His appearance has changed a lot since he grew up, but the fact that he can eat has not changed.
"Try this." The woman thought, then reached out for a pair of chopsticks, picked up vegetables and fed them to Qin Shou'an.
Qin Shouan didn't expect that she would feed him food.
Did she not quite understand... Forget it, Qin Shouan opened his mouth and started eating, nodded and praised with a smile: "Not bad, it tastes great."
Qin Shou'an usually dines at Haitang Chunwu, and has long been accustomed to the three maids feeding him in unison. Most of the time, he doesn't even need to speak. He just wants to eat a certain dish, and the maid will bring it to him. p>
It’s just that I haven’t been fed by unfamiliar people.
But it doesn't matter. First of all, this woman has a good appearance and a delicate fragrance.
Secondly, she may be about the same age as Tang Wanrong, and she may be an elder in a certain family. To be honest, she may be called aunt, aunt, aunt, mistress, or something like that.
It’s okay to be fed a few chopsticks by her.
But this didn't seem to be a matter of "how many chopsticks". She saw that Qin Shou'an was eating happily and neatly, and he didn't seem to object to her approach. She was extremely happy and kept feeding him chopstick after chopstick.
"You...you should eat some too." Qin Shouan was still holding the deer's leg in her hand, but her mouth was already filled with other food.
Only then did the woman react and smiled apologetically, but she forgot to change her chopsticks and inadvertently put the chopsticks she had fed Qin Shouan directly into her mouth.
