After exchanging lives, I can't get rid of the binding cp

Chapter 253 Black Hand (4)

Lou Xiyue knows a little about the Qi family in the capital.She knew that Qi Lin, the powerful minister of the Daxuan Dynasty, had three sons and four daughters.Many years ago, Qi Lin's sister entered the palace as a concubine and is now one of the favorite concubines in the harem.The Qi family is in the capital, so they can be considered relatives of the emperor.

The Qi family has a prominent family, but Lou Xiyue doesn't know much about it.The descendants of the Qi family all had different surnames, but she didn't recognize any of them.At least to her, Qi Yu's name was very unfamiliar.

Lou Xiyue thought in her heart that maybe she should know more about the various forces in the DPRK.

As the saying goes, if you know yourself and the enemy, you can fight a hundred battles without danger. The people behind Linlang Pavilion were also powerful officials in the Daxuan Dynasty. If we can know more about them, we can more accurately identify the suspects behind the scenes in the future.

So Lou Xiyue asked: "Qi Yu is so domineering? Why does he want to go against you?"

Chu Lanyi hesitated to speak: "Master Qi... He is a well-known young talent in the capital. Before taking up the post of Minister of Punishment, he was a close bodyguard of the Holy Emperor. His martial arts are very good and he is trusted by the Holy Emperor... …”

In addition, Qi Yu had an extraordinary background, his father was a very popular minister, and his aunt was a concubine in the harem, so everyone around him was fawning over him.Qi Yu has been supporting him for a long time in the flattering voice, and it is inevitable that he is a little arrogant.

But in fact, it's not just him. Looking at the entire capital, there is not a single one of the children of the aristocratic families who doesn't have their eyes set on the top.

They rely on the shadow of their ancestors, and even call themselves aristocrats. They care about pomp and appearance in everything, and they do not pay attention to the children of poor families who come from humble backgrounds.

It seems that all the good things in the world should be given to them, and others should not be contaminated at all.

During the Daxuan Dynasty, the top civilians in imperial examinations and high schools had all received their cold eyes.

This is how he treats talented people, let alone Song He who climbed up on the prince's thigh.

Chu Lanyi said: "But we think that Mr. Qi is a popular person in front of His Majesty, and he has the support of his ancestors, so he got the position of Minister of Punishment.

"From his point of view, we just did a few things for His Highness the Crown Prince, and we are on equal footing with him. With Lord Qi's impulsive young mind, it is inevitable that he will feel resentful. This is not difficult to understand."

Chu Lanyi said she was considerate of the other party, but the next moment, she said: "However, there is something I want to remind the princess."

Lou Xiyue looked at her: "What are you reminding me of?"

Chu Lanyi: "Although Mr. Qi is a respectable person, I'd rather avoid him when I see him in the future."

This is strange.

Lou Xiyue said "Oh" out of curiosity and asked, "Avoid it? Why is that?"

As she spoke, she made a move.She glanced forward and to the right, secretly wondering: It was footsteps, someone was coming.

Lou Xiyue paused and was about to interrupt Chu Lanyi.At this time, Chu Lanyi opened her mouth: "Because..."

Before he finished speaking, a strange male voice suddenly came from the right front: "For what? I'm also curious. Mrs. Chu, why don't you also explain it to me?"

After the words fell, Chu Lanyi suddenly froze for a moment.She turned her head slowly and smiled at the visitor: "Qi, Mr. Qi..."

Lou Xiyue recovered from Mrs. Chu's unusual reaction and immediately looked towards the source of the sound.

In the field of vision, a group of young men were seen walking out of the shade of trees in front of them on the right.They walked on the gravel path, bypassed two bushes of peonies, and stood tall and tall under the tree.The leading young man has a fine figure and is especially tall.He was dressed in rich brocade clothes, with a gold and jade crown on his head and jade boots on his feet, making him look luxurious.

The young man came forward with his hands behind his back and a smile on his face.He first glanced at Chu Lanyi and said, "I just heard Mrs. Chu calling my name. I wonder what you two are talking about me here? Tell me too."

It's really embarrassing to say bad things about people behind their backs and be caught red-handed.

Lou Xiyue felt a numbness in her scalp. Just when she was thinking of an excuse to deal with it, Chu Lanyi reacted first.

I saw Chu Lanyi put on a smile and said: "Oh, what else can I say, it's just some women's gossip——

"The princess mentioned you to me just now, so I said, from now on, I have to avoid you when I see you, otherwise I will definitely be fascinated by your valiant and heroic appearance!"

Lou Xiyue: "..."

She thought to herself that Chu Lanyi's ability to talk nonsense was really amazing and "admirable".

At this time, Qi Yu seemed to be frightened by Chu Lanyi's "sweet words". He smiled heartily, and then said: "I haven't seen you for many days, Mrs. Chu is still sharp-tongued - your compliments are really nice. People are dizzy."

While speaking, Qi Yu turned his head and his eyes fell on Lou Xiyue.In an instant, Qi Yu's eyes lit up.He looked at Lou Xiyue up and down with admiring eyes and said:
"I guess this one is Princess Xuanping, right?"

Qi Yu rolled up his sleeves with a smile, and saluted her respectfully and kindly: "I have met the princess before. It is our first meeting. There is no greeting ceremony. Please don't take offense to the princess."

While he was talking, he couldn't help but glance at Lou Xiyue.The covetous look in his eyes was clear.

Lou Xiyue felt uncomfortable when she was looked at with such eyes.She frowned slightly, but immediately relaxed.She calmly stepped back, then nodded slightly and said:
"Master Qi, there is no need to be polite, just stay calm."

Then, she also looked at Qi Yu quietly.

The young man in front of him has a square chin and two heroic sword-shaped eyebrows above his slender eyes.His facial features are not handsome, but they are quite regular, but his face is a bit fierce, and he looks very difficult to deal with.

"Thank you, Princess." Qi Yu stood up straight and took a few steps closer to them.His gaze was blatant: "It's the luncheon right now. Why are you not listening to the play at the banquet? Why are you here?"

Lou Xiyue: "The banquet was a bit boring, so I came out to get some fresh air. I happened to meet all of you adults."

She moved her eyes back and saw that those traveling with Qi Yu were all children of unknown aristocratic families.When the young gentlemen saw her, they also saluted.

Lou Xiyue said hello to people, and when she glanced around, she caught a glimpse of a rather familiar face among the young men.

She was surprised for a moment: That is... Shangguan Jie?

Probably sensing her gaze, Shangguan Jieyi raised his head and smiled at her.

Lou Xiyue: It’s strange, how come Shangguan Jie hangs out with young men like Qi Yu?
Before she could figure it out, Qi Yu came forward again and said, "This luncheon is really not fun, and I don't find it very interesting. It's no coincidence that the princess and I have exactly the same ideas. We are really destined to be together, otherwise, how could we meet on this small road?"

Qi Yu suggested: "Since we are destined, how about you let me guide you and enjoy the scenery in the garden?" He said: "The autumn scenery in the garden is very beautiful. It would be a pity if we fail to live up to it. Just let me Will you please accompany your Majesty to view the chrysanthemums in the garden?"
