"The empress is curious. There are so many girls in king Qi's mansion who are more beautiful than Qiushui or who have been waiting on you for a long time. Why do they fall in love with Qiushui?"

"This..." Yu Heng was unable to answer her question. After thinking for a moment, he said, "if you don't know where you are, you can go deep. If you can make everything clear, it's not love."

Shen Xijun unfolded his bright red and gold sleeves and said with a smile, "it's the same reason. My mother wants to see the autumn water."

Yu Heng happily said: "so, mother agreed?"

"Promise or not, wait till my mother sees her." See her say so, to constant also not good to ask again, immediately way: "there minister this go to tell autumn water."

Shen Xijun's words suddenly changed. "I've heard that there have been a lot of things going on recently in our palace?"

Yu Heng didn't understand why she suddenly asked this question and said truthfully, "well, it's cold this year. Several places have been hit by blizzards, so it's necessary for the household department to allocate money for disaster relief. My son's minister will go to the household department later."

Shen Xijun nodded his head and said, "if that's the case, then you should go back to the household department, Qiushui, and let ah Zi pass it on." Yu Heng hesitated and said, "it's better for me to go. It's not so bad for a while."

"Why?" Shen Xijun said with a smile but not a smile: "I'm afraid that the empress will bully your Qiushui?"

To constant skin a red, even busy way: "mother joked, how can I think so."

"If you can't, then go back to the Department of accounts and don't miss the business." Seeing her saying so, Yu Heng had to agree.

After he left, ah Zi was also ordered to go to king Qi's house to summon Qiushui. It was an hour later when the latter entered the palace.

Qiushui bowed his head and knelt down, respectfully said: "maidservant to the empress please, empress Millennium auspicious."

"Look up." With Shen Xijun's words, Qiushui slowly raises her head. Her appearance is not outstanding. At most, she has a medium posture. Only her eyes look forward to life, and she is smart and clear.

After beckoning her to get up, Shen Xijun said with a smile, "is this the third time we've met?"

Qiushui said cleverly: "yes, the first time was that his highness was ill and his mother came to visit him in the palace; the second time was last year's Mid Autumn Festival and my maid was lucky to follow him into the palace; the third time is now." With that, she said uneasily: "I don't know if the empress calls the maidservant into the palace. What's her order?"

Shen Xijun took a sip of the tea from the palace man, and his eyes gradually cooled as he looked at the autumn water. "Your Majesty asked our palace and your concubines to choose the Royal concubines for the king of Qi. Unexpectedly, someone had come into the palace and coveted the position of the Royal concubine. Qiushui, you follow the king of Qi all day. Who is that man

Autumn water complexion a white, quickly kneel down a way: "Niang Mingjian, maidservant never covet of heart."

Shen Xijun heavily put down the tea cup and said in a cold voice: "still here, sweet words. At that time, I pitied you for being lonely and helpless, and let you be a servant beside the king of Qi. You can seduce the master by means of flattery, but you also want to fly to the branch and become the princess of Qi. Qiushui, you're really good at your wishful thinking. "

"No! I have not Qiushui shook his head desperately and choked: "I know I'm humble. It's a blessing that I've been wrongly loved by the king of Qi for several generations. I'm a princess I didn't even think about it. "

Shen Xijun said with a sneer: "as long as you hold on to heng'er, the princess's position is naturally yours, so why think more."

"I really don't have one." Qiushui was more and more tearful. "If you don't believe me, I can swear to heaven. If you violate the oath..."

"No need." Shen Xijun interrupted her coldly, "if you want the palace to believe you, go and persuade the king of Qi to give up the idea of marrying you as his concubine."

"Yes." Qiushui agreed without hesitation, "I will persuade your royal highness, please rest assured; if..." She bit her silver teeth and said, "Your Highness is not willing to listen to me. My maidservant should leave king Qi's house and never see king Qi again."

"I hope you can do what you say." Shen Xijun said meaningfully. After another word, she waved her hand and said, "OK, step back."

"Yes, I'll leave." Qiushui bowed his head and retreated to the door. After another salute, he opened the door and went out.

I don't know when it snowed outside. As soon as I opened the door, the north wind mixed with snowflakes roared in and circled low in the hall.

Ah Zi looked at the re closed door and said, "it seems that your highness is in wrong love. She has no heart." With that, she sighed, "Alas, it's just that the status is too low, otherwise it would be a good marriage."

Shen Xijun glanced at her and said in a cool voice, "do you really think so?"

A Zi is one Zheng, doubt a way: "is maidservant misjudged?"

Alan said: "I don't think she is a man who is greedy for wealth. And she said that if she can't persuade the king of Qi, she will leave by herself?"

Shen Xijun reached out to catch a snowflake, and the warmth of his palm made it turn into a drop of snow water. "If you are really consistent, I won't worry about it."

Ah Zi is the first to understand, "the master is worried that she is retreating?"

Shen Xijun didn't say anything more, but said, "look, I'll know soon."Sure enough, early the next morning, Yu Heng came to Changxin hall. As soon as he entered the hall, he was excited and said, "didn't the empress agree? Why did she turn back?"

Shen Xijun stopped pruning flowers, turned and looked at him indifferently, "is that how you talk to your mother?"

Aware of his impoliteness, Yu Heng bowed his head and said, "my son is reckless. Please forgive me."

Shen Xijun doesn't speak either. He just turns around and trims the extra flowers. Yu Heng looks at her back. He wants to talk several times and then comes down again.

After cutting off a few flower branches, Shen Xijun put down the silver scissors, took the handkerchief from Alan and swab his hand. "You came here today for the sake of autumn water?"

Yu Heng said hastily, "yes, my mother has always promised. Why should I break my promise this time?"

In the face of Yu Heng's question, Shen Xijun was not angry either. He said calmly, "has my palace ever agreed? Do you think clearly?"

To constant a Leng, carefully recall, Shen Xijun yesterday and did not explicitly agree, only said that he had seen autumn water again, is he anxious under remember wrong.

"It's ER Chen's mistake, but he doesn't understand why the empress opposes her marriage to Qiushui because of her identity?"

"The empress has no opinion of family status. She opposes it because the autumn water is not good enough for you."

"Although Qiushui is not born in a famous family, he is also well versed in poetry and books. He is gentle, kind and considerate, which is not worthy of saying."

"You can't just look at the surface. She promised her mother that she would persuade you to give up. What happened? That's enough for the mother to veto her. "

Yu Heng said angrily: "she advised her son, but it was her son who refused to agree. It was also her son who wanted to come to discuss with her mother. Qiushui didn't know how she could blame Qiushui without asking."
