Lin Shuqian and Qi Mingxuan look at each other.
The voice of the storyteller downstairs came up again. "At this time, everyone in the royal garden was relieved, but I thought that Princess Diya was a treacherous and cunning person. A poisonous snake jumped out of her sleeve and bit the Empress Dowager's wrist!"
"Fortunately, the imperial doctor detoxified in time, but the poisonous snake was so poisonous that the Empress Dowager was still in bed..."
Lin Shuqian looked down and saw that the audience in the hall was very angry. He wanted to go to Princess Nadia now and ask the poor empress dowager for an explanation.
"That's a bit off the mark." Lin Shuqian said in a low voice.
Qi Mingxuan is very calm, "if you don't say something strange, how can there be so many people to listen?"
Lin Shuqian couldn't help smacking her tongue. If she wasn't the person in the story, I'm afraid she would clap her hands like the audience below.
As the story goes on downstairs, it has begun to talk about how the mission in Mobei interceded with each other and how the officials in Dayi shared a common hatred.
Lin Shuqian said strangely, "how true and how false is this story?"
"Half true, half false."
Qi Mingxuan gave Lin Shuqian a fruit, just said, "the matter is true, the process is false."
Lin Shuqian thought for a moment and added, "the reaction of the people is also true."
After a while, Lin Shuqian has come to understand why murongjie let her pretend to be ill, in order to mobilize people's emotions.
Lin Shuqian: "is it that if the negotiation is not over, I have to continue to pretend?"
Qi Mingxuan nodded, with a little apology in his eyes. After all, the plan was put forward by his father.
Lin Shuqian's reaction was not as sad as expected. She leaned back in the chair with a calm smile, "this is the responsibility of the Empress Dowager."
"I don't know how long the mourning family has to pretend to be ill. Just have a good time today!"
Lin Shuqian stood up and waved to Qi Mingxuan, "go, let's go to other places."
……
Outside the teahouse was a busy market, so they strolled freely.
Lin Shuqian's head was covered with a curtain cap, and no one was afraid to recognize her. They walked and stopped, and when they saw something interesting, they stopped to have a look.
They wandered from the street to the end of the street. In the afternoon, they went to the lake and ate Lin Shuqian's favorite snack. At dusk, Lin Shuqian stopped.
"Is it time to go back?" Lin Shuqian's face is hidden in the hat, which makes people unable to see her emotion clearly.
Qi Mingxuan can't bear it. He also thinks that today's time is passing too fast.
"Don't worry. It's not dark yet. I can't take you to the palace. We'll go back when the sun sets."
Qi Mingxuan pointed to a restaurant not far away. "The steamed fish in that restaurant is delicious. We'll eat it and go back."
Lin Shuqian along Qi Mingxuan's hand to see past, a little heart.
"But..." Lin Shuqian hesitated, "at night, Lingxi must ask me to have dinner. It's not good to be found at that time."
"Nothing. He will deal with it when ADA is there. " Qi Mingxuan stretched out his hand and made a gesture of invitation towards the restaurant.
Since Qi Mingxuan said it was all right, Lin Shuqian no longer tangled, and followed Qi Mingxuan to leave.
As they approached, Lin Shuqian found that Qi Mingxuan's restaurant was just a small restaurant, close to the lake, selling steamed fish and some home cooked dishes.
Steam fish up, Lin Shu shallow just stretched out chopsticks, Qi Mingxuan arm stretch, put the fish in front of himself.
Lin Shuqian looked up at Qi Mingxuan in confusion. Qi Mingxuan took the chopsticks, put a piece of fish in the plate in front of him, carefully picked the fish bone, and then put the small plate in front of Lin Shuqian.
Usually Lin Shu shallow eat fish, is also the maid of honor to pick the fish bone for her to eat.
Lin Shuqian didn't expect that Qi Mingxuan noticed what she didn't notice.
She picked up the fish and put it in her mouth, only to find the fish in this restaurant extremely sweet.
