After a simple lunch, Mu Qingfei went to the temple to visit Master Lingxu. Xue Xichen and Feng Qingge walked slowly down the mountain hand in hand. In the afternoon, there was no wind and no sound. The two walked quietly on the mountain road. It was quiet for a while. The posthumous title was speechless. The empty mountain forest was so quiet that there was only the sound of "chacha" made by the two people stepping on the stone steps.
Xue Xichen was bored. His eyes were wandering. He looked left and right, looking at the shadows of the grass, trying to find a living creature. However, it was sweltering in the afternoon. Most animals were hiding in the shade to rest. Even the always diligent ants. Rarely missing.
It's so muggy.
Xue Xichen was very upset. She should bring a fan when she went out.
A dark shadow shrouded the top of the head. It blocked a bit of the scorching sun and added a bit of windless coolness. Xue Xichen unexpectedly raised his head. A handful of large banana leaves above his head blocked the sun. He looked around and landed on the person holding the leaf stalk. Xue Xichen showed an unexpected look and said in surprise: "Your Majesty."
"It's hot in the afternoon. Block the sun."
Feng Qingge smiled and spoke lightly, as if she was talking about the simplest thing in the world.
"How dare you trouble the emperor..." she said words of rejection. Xue Xichen stretched out her hand to take the banana leaf from Feng Qingge, but Feng Qingge dodged it. Feng Qingge stubbornly covered the banana leaf with the snow. Xichen raised his head and said softly: "I'll do this heavy work."
"emperor……"
"Tongtong. How many times have I told you to call me 'Qingge'."
Feng Qingge took the trouble to correct it again.
"The emperor has a distinguished status. How dare I, my concubine..."
Feng Qingge pretended to be angry. "Tongtong, if you say that again, I will get angry."
Xue Xichen curled her lips and reluctantly changed her words. "Okay. Qing Ge."
Feng Qingge showed a satisfied smile. She raised her big palm and touched Xue Xichen's hair. Her eyes were full of pity.
His pupils...his love...
"Qingge. Where did you find this banana leaf?"
"I picked it on my way down the mountain."
"Why didn't I find out..."
"You are absent-minded. How could you find out?"
She was discovered. Xue Xichen smacked her lips in embarrassment and muttered: "Where is it? It's just..." After a pause, she did not continue. She slightly raised her face and looked directly at Feng Qingge. Seriously. He asked: "Qing Ge, can you really feel at ease with Mu Xiang? I mean... people's hearts are separated from each other. Although you have been close friends for many years, but... people will change, and rights will change even more. A person...I just think...you have given Mu Xiang such great rights and freedoms. What if Mu Xiang changes his mind one day? Then..."
"Tongtong. I understand your worries. I believe Qingfei is not that kind of person."
"But... what if... I mean what if... what if there are greater interests in front of me? Is Mu Xiang really not tempted?"
"The greater benefit is money. Or power. Or status. Do you think there is anything missing from Qingfei sitting in the position of prime minister?"
He lacks a woman by his side.
Xue Xichen's stomach growled, but she didn't say anything out loud.
She tilted her head and added: "Youdao is greedy for profit. The more powerful a person is, the more powerful he will be. There is no guarantee that Mu Xianghui will not be content with the status quo and try to obtain greater benefits."
"You're worried that Qing Fei will take my place."
Xue Xichen was speechless. She thought about it seriously and found it impossible.
"Even if Mu Xiang can win the throne, he won't be able to sit on it for long. Mu Xiang is a smart man. I don't think he will do such a thankless thing."
"So. What else do I have to worry about."
Feng Qingge touched Xue Xichen's hair and smiled.
"..." Xue Xichen tilted her head and thought for a while. In fact, she also felt that her worries about Mu Qingfei were a bit unnecessary. The person who had different intentions was Feng Biqing. As for Mu Qingfei... he could only be regarded as an idiot at best.
He's just an old fox. He should be quite loyal to Feng Qingge...
"Tongtong. You don't like Qingfei."
It seems that in the history of Xue Xichen and Mu Qingfei's relationship, Xue Xichen has always disliked Mu Qingfei. Feng Qingge has never known the reason. Now that Xue Xichen mentioned it, he could not help but ask.
.
Of course he doesn't want his woman to get into trouble with his brother.
"It's not that I don't like it." Xue Xichen curled her lips. "Mu Qingfei is an old fox. I don't think I can control it. So I don't want to deal with such a person. Because this kind of person is too dangerous. He will be killed in a minute.
If you sell it, you will help him count the money."
"Hahahahahaha."
Feng Qingge couldn't help laughing and laughed loudly. "Tongtong, you and Qingfei are really alike. You know, Qingfei once said this about you... He said that you are too smart and smart. I can't hide anything from you."
When you get along with such a person, you must be alert at all times to ensure that you will not plot against you."
"What..." Mu Qingfei said this to her...
Xue Xichen couldn't help but have dark lines on her face. Was Mu Qingfei praising her or stepping on her? Why did she sound so harsh... But then I thought about it. She could get such a high evaluation from an old fox. In fact, she
It also gave her a sense of accomplishment. She no longer cared so much about Mu Qingfei.
"In my opinion, Mu Qingfei and I don't get along," she muttered.
Feng Qingge laughed. "I think you and Qingfei are in perfect harmony. Tongtong. If you were a man and entered the court as an official and became a minister, you would definitely become my right-hand man and help me govern the dynasty more firmly."
"
Xue Xichen shook her head and refused. "Don't. I hate that tiring job. Besides, you have Xiao Liuyue by your side. You don't need me to give you advice."
Xiao Liuyue...
Mentioning this person, Feng Qingge's expression darkened slightly and she remained silent.
Xue Xichen secretly raised her eyelids to look at Feng Qingge. She found that Feng Qingge's face was as calm as water. She seemed to be concentrating on something. She rolled her eyes and said, "Qingge, you trust Xiao Liuyue very much."
.Right? He is the talented man you invited back. Of course you trust him very much."
Feng Qingge's eyes flickered and she answered lightly, "Of course."
"Then..." A sharp light flashed across the end of Xue Xichen's eyes. "You won't suspect that he betrayed you."
"Um……"
Feng Qingge hummed in a deep voice but did not answer directly.
Xue Xichen nodded. He seemed to be sure of something. He said seriously, "So, since you have Xiao Liuyue to help you manage the country, then there is no need for a little woman like me to join in the fun. What's more,
.Your Majesty, you are also assisted by the Sixth Prince, who is talented in literary talent and is good at winning people's hearts."
"Biqing..."
At the mention of this name, Feng Qingge's expression sank. Silently, her expression became slightly serious, as if she was seriously thinking about something important.
Xue Xichen got an answer she was satisfied with and stopped talking. She left time for Feng Qingge to think slowly.
Feng Qingge. It's time for you to wake up. Open your eyes and see clearly the people around you. Who is really good to you? Don't let others sell you and count their money stupidly.
