Gu Qiancheng: "..."
Shameless beast!
His teeth were itching with hatred, and he almost spit out a mouthful of old blood. If he wasn't afraid that he would see the flaw, he would have wanted to blow his head off right away!
"Brother is blushing..." Xiao Lin smiled, "It seems that we should really find him a wife! I will make a list of the noble ladies in the capital tomorrow, and we will let him choose one by one! As long as brother can If you like it, I guarantee that the marriage will come true!"
"Don't make trouble!" Su Li smiled and punched him, "This kind of thing has to be consensual, so don't make any mistakes!"
"I'm not messing up!" Xiao Lin smiled back, "Is it possible that you still think that someone is unwilling to marry your elder brother? Don't worry! He is your elder brother, and he is also my elder brother! My elder brother, this is Xiao's There is no woman who doesn’t want to get married. I’m afraid that as soon as the news gets out, she’ll be crushed! Brother, tell me, do you have the girl you like?”
Gu Qiancheng was so angry that his chest was beating wildly. He suppressed his inner resentment and said hoarsely, "How dare you worry about such a trivial matter? If there is someone you like, I will definitely ask Your Highness to marry you!"
"It's a deal!" Xiao Lin smiled, "When the time comes, be sure to remember to tell me!"
"I will definitely do it!" Gu Qiancheng's teeth kept itching.
Su Li looked at the two men and vaguely felt something was wrong.
Although there was nothing wrong with the conversation between the two, she inexplicably smelled the smell of gunpowder.
Moreover, Xiao Lin is not usually such a talkative person.
He was always concise and to the point when talking to his subordinates, and the same was true for Gu Qiancheng. Unless he talked to her more, the others basically treated their words like gold.
Not only is he talking a lot now, he's even a little irritable!
Gu Qiancheng also looked very strange. He looked completely different from the one he saw last night.
There must be some reason for this, right?
Her eyes glanced at the two of them, but she stood up with a smile without saying anything.
"Okay, I've taken the medicinal soup. Brother, please rest well!"
Then he turned to Xiao Lin and said, "Your Highness, it's time for us to go back to the banquet! After having fun with grandma and the others, it's time to go to Xinghua Tower! By the way, when will the banquet at Xinghua Tower be held, Your Highness?"
"It's not even three minutes!" Xiao Lin took her hand and walked out slowly, "Actually, you don't have to eat with them! It's all their fault, it's their turn to invite us!"
"Having said that, since His Highness is a king, of course he must be tolerant and generous to his ministers!" Su Li smiled back, "Moreover, you broke the ancestral system and did not accept concubines. It was indeed unexpected for them. Gao Yue, Qi Yao and the others have lost their reputation in this matter, so we should give them some face! Keep a line in everything so that we can meet each other easily in the future!"
"It's a pity that some people may not appreciate your painstaking efforts and tolerance!" Xiao Lin sighed softly, his eyes slightly cold.
Su Li was startled: "What's wrong? Who is out of trouble again?"
Xiao Lin nodded: "There is indeed a person who does not know good and evil..."
"Who is he?" Su Li asked hurriedly.
"Guess!" Xiao Lin let it slip.
Su Li pondered for a moment and lowered his voice: "Could it be...the Song family?"
"It's her!" Xiao Lin replied, "When the troublemakers in the palace returned home, I asked the internal guards to keep an eye on them one by one. Most of the others were sincerely repentant, but this one was full of resentment! Not to mention, her roommate There were also some strange things happening..."
Immediately, he explained in a low voice what the internal guards had observed.
"Her body actually floated out of thin air?" Su Li was shocked, "So, she has a lot to do with the person behind the scenes!"
"Nine times out of ten!" Xiao Lin nodded vigorously, "Unfortunately, the communication between them never relies on words, but on spiritual consciousness and ideas, so we have no way of knowing what they are talking about. However, after that, , she asked the nanny next to her to do something..."
"What's the matter?" Su Li asked.
"She wants... to work for the army!" Xiao Lin raised an eyebrow, "For her late husband, to work for the army!"
Xinghua Tower.
The two brothers Qi Zuo and Qi You received a biography from the soldiers around them.
The message that came was also confusing.
"Why did she suddenly think of Lao Jun?"
"I don't know! But she did instruct Nanny Leng to do these things! Nanny Leng said that she was not in the right mood, so she took the initiative to find her subordinates and told them the truth! By the way, after she came back from the palace, she ordered Nanny Leng is going to do it!"
"But today is not my father's memorial day!" Qi You murmured, "In the past, when she wanted to work in the army, she always chose to do so on the anniversary of her father's death..."
Speaking of this, he became agitated again.
As the widow of a soldier who died in the war, in order to commemorate her husband, she sent some food and other food to the soldiers. It is understandable. Everyone can understand and are touched by her righteous deed.
But Song's labor force is different from the labor force in the normal sense. They reward the soldiers with real money, silver, and tangible things. As for her, she relies on her mouth to talk about their father's meritorious service. How outstanding, even if he had been killed in battle for several years, she still wanted all the soldiers under her father's command to remember him, mourn him, and be grateful to him forever.
If you do this kind of thing once or twice, everyone will cheer for it. After all, my father has a high prestige in the military. Even if my mother doesn't deliberately emphasize it, the veterans under his command have indeed been thinking about it.
But taking the initiative to remember someone by yourself is completely different from being forced to do so by others.
Some things, if talked about too much, can easily bore people and make them resentful.
What's more, Song was so stingy every time she "laboured". Taking a small advantage and forcing others to mourn with her was really unpopular.
If the two brothers hadn't been quietly making up for it behind the scenes, no one would have bought her fault just because of Song's stingy temper! .
For this reason, the two brothers later stopped her from going to the army to "embarrass herself". However, Song's stubborn temper and tough personality meant she still went there every year. They couldn't stop her and could only continue to clean up the mess behind.
To be honest, I am really tired after cleaning it up for so long.
And this year, the anniversary of his father's death was still two or three months away, so the Song family started doing these things again, which annoyed the two brothers even more!
"She was asked to attend His Highness's banquet. She was so angry that she felt sore and itchy. She turned around and had to leave the city to work in the army!" Qi Zuo felt helpless. "She had to slap His Highness in the face!"
"Hurry up and send someone to stop her!" Qi You said urgently, "If His Highness finds out, it will cause trouble for nothing!"
"I'm afraid it's already too late!" Qi Zuo smiled bitterly, "I suspect that His Highness already knows!"
"Is this... possible?" Qi You was startled.
"No way?" Qi Zuo lamented, "If you and I were Your Highness, and were forced to fight like this, and in the end this person never apologized and said some hurtful words, would you trust this person? Would you? Won't you send someone to monitor her? If she is not convinced, it means that she may even act like a monster! Will you allow such a person to challenge your authority again and again? "
