Chapter 61 Remember to prepare gifts
Xia Chixiao glanced at him and reminded: "You wipe your saliva and it's all dripping on the floor!"

Shang Jingyu was startled, what a personable image he had!
I hurriedly reached out to wipe it away. Where did the saliva come from?He was fooled!

Seeing Xia Chixiao rolling his eyes, Shang Jingyu was dissatisfied: "You, a warrior who doesn't understand style, romance, and romance, only know the sword in your hand every day, and only know the military strategy under your hand. You are not afraid of dying alone. !”

Xia Chixiao said calmly: "I have already married, and in two days, your sister-in-law will come to Beijing. On the other hand, you don't even have a sweetheart now. It's your turn to worry about whether you will die alone!"

"you……"

Shang Jingyu's words are concluded.

So angry!

However, he turned his eyes and raised his head again: "I would rather lack than abuse! Besides, who said that I don't have a sweetheart? I will have a sweetheart soon. The evil one who conquered the idlers in West City... uh, the tigress, and the little niece, I think they’re all good, and when I get in touch again, I’ll have a sweetheart!”

"You don't even know your horoscope. If you like someone else, they might like you!"

Shang Jingyu stood up suddenly: "Let's have a fight!"

I can't talk today, it's more fun to fight!

However, Xia Chixiao poured a cup of tea slowly, drank it leisurely, and kindly reminded: "Your sister-in-law will come to Beijing the day after tomorrow, so remember to prepare gifts! You are a dignified prince, so your gifts will not be too shabby, right?"

Shang Jingyu said: "Roll, roll, roll!"

"This is the private room I ordered!"

"Then I'll get out!" After saying that, Shang Jingyu walked away with a grunt.

Shang Jingyu didn't look angry when he walked out. He waved his fan and swayed downstairs with a relaxed expression, and followed Jiang Yu in a hurry.

Shang Jingyu paused for a moment, then said: "Remember, the two red thread king beads that I got last time, as well as the Su Luo Yun Ling Brocade given by the palace, will be sent to Xia Chixiao the day after tomorrow!"

Jiang Yu's lips twitched, and he just returned the Suluo Yunling brocade in the palace. Although the tribute brocade is rare, one piece is only a mere thousand taels.But those two red-threaded king beads were very dear to the prince. Ordinary king beads were already rare, and the red-threaded king beads were several times more expensive.

However, he didn't say anything and replied: "Yes!"

Shang Jingyu snorted, he didn't give it to Xia Chixiao, he just gave it to Mrs. Xia!

Xia Chixiao, that incomprehensible and venomous guy, doesn't deserve such a good thing.

Xia Chixiao finished her tea, returned the things she bought from Rouge Shop to Sanjin Mansion, and then returned to Liyang Hou Mansion.

Wu Jinchuan came over and said, "My eldest son, there are guests at my house today. I asked you to go directly to the main hall when you come back!"

Xia Chixiao said: "I know!"

Xia Haicheng is keen to introduce Xia Chixiao to people who come to visit his house. After all, he has such an outstanding son, so of course he has to show it off from time to time.

When Xia Chixiao went to the main hall, he heard a burst of hearty laughter and a cheerful conversation. A man in his forties looked over when he heard the footsteps and a pair of sharp eyes like an eagle.

When he saw Xia Chixiao appearing at the door, his eyes softened and he said with a smile, "This must be your son Chixiao?"

Xia Haicheng said: "Xiao'er, I came here to meet your Uncle Shao!"

Xia Chixiao walked over and saluted, saying, "My nephew Xia Chixiao has met Mr. Anguo!"

Shao Mingde, Duke of Anguo, was a military general with a bold manner and speech. He served as Zuo Shilang in the Ministry of War.Xia Haicheng now serves as a civil servant and serves as the right minister in the Ministry of Household Affairs. With his civil service and military skills, his status in the court is not low, either high or low.They belong to different departments, and they belong to civil and military departments. His stay in the capital these few months was not in vain. He knew many officials and the duties they were responsible for.But according to the information collected, these two people should not have any friendship.

Shao Mingde laughed and said: "Brother Xia, this son is amazing. At such a young age, he has accomplished things that others cannot do, and has made extraordinary contributions. He has been awarded a second-rank official title at a young age. Many people in the capital say that , giving birth to a son should be like Xia Chixiao!"

What he said was not an exaggeration. Xia Chixiao single-handedly united the Qianyuan Kingdom and returned to the north. He was ordered to lead troops to regain several cities lost three years ago. He also learned that Marquis Liyang had made the mistake. His son had the kind words of Concubine Qing in the palace. After returning to the capital, the emperor made an exception and promoted him to the second rank. He could almost reach the sky in one step!
This is probably the first time since the founding of Shangqi.

Xia Haicheng shook his head and said: "The Duke of the State is ridiculous. His grace is just a grand gesture. Moreover, although he is a second-grade man, he is at home free of charge!"

Shao Mingde burst out laughing after hearing this. He was a Duke of the country and had fought on the battlefield. Now he was only in the second rank. It was impossible to say that he didn't feel sad in his heart.

But what Xia Haicheng said was true. Although Xia Chixiao was given a high rank, he had no actual job.

He laughed loudly and said: "The child is still young and has a bright future!"

Xia Haicheng turned to Xia Chixiao and asked, "The emperor summoned you to the palace today. Do you have any instructions?"

Xia Chixiao's eyes darkened and he said, "The Emperor ordered me to go to the camp on the outskirts of Beijing and report for duty soon!"

Hearing these words, Xia Haicheng and Shao Mingde were both shocked. Shao Mingde, who had felt comforted just now, was suddenly stabbed, but Xia Haicheng was surprised and happy.

He asked: "Which camp?"

"Edge!"

Xia Haicheng: "..."

Shao Mingde smiled and said: "My nephew is a martial artist. This military camp on the outskirts of Beijing is the most suitable place. Your Majesty is wise!"

After chatting for a few more words, Shao Mingde left.

After asking the butler to see off the guests, Xia Haicheng looked at Xia Chixiao: "Why did the emperor suddenly ask you to go to Lengtai camp?"

Xia Chixiao said: "My son doesn't know, maybe it's because I'm doing nothing in the capital right now, and the emperor thinks he can't let me get my salary for free?"

Xia Haicheng laughed and scolded: "What nonsense are you talking about? Does the emperor still care about your salary?"

Xia Chixiao looked innocent: "Perhaps some people think that my son is idle these days, and that he is an eyesore to them?"

This is probably true. After all, he was really involved. The emperor still thought of him and summoned him to the palace. The original intention was probably to reprimand, not to reward.

Xia Haicheng couldn't ask anything, and didn't seem to care. He waved his hand and said: "Since the emperor has made arrangements for you, then you can go about your business and don't make people laugh!"

Xia Chixiao said: "Yes!"

He left the main hall. The smile on Xia Haicheng's face had disappeared. His eyes were deep and dark, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Over there, Shao Mingde left Liyanghou Mansion and got on the carriage, but his whole face became a little ugly.

Xia Chixiao looked uninjured. It was obvious at a glance that he was fine!

He frowned and told the driver: "Go to Shuangyangfang!"

The coachman naturally knew that this was specifically referring to a certain house in Shuangyangfang, and without asking any further questions, the carriage swayed away.
