Eunuch's Declaration of Loyalty

Chapter 54

Yushui Villa, dedicated to the royal family, is the largest and best summer resort in the suburbs of Yujing. The villa is elevated above the water, and because of the terrain and environment, it is extremely cool in the hot summer.It is also very close to the three ice cellars that supply Yu Jing, and it is most convenient to use ice.

If it wasn't for the fact that it was still a little far away from Yujing, and Liu Qingtang in her previous life cared about state affairs and the emperor's nephew, and felt that she needed to be in Yujing, otherwise she would definitely come here every year to enjoy it.

Even so, Liu Qingtang made time to come here a few times in her previous life, but the most recent one was a few years ago, and her impression of Yushui Villa is a little blurry, and she only vaguely remembers that there are large lotus leaves There are lotus flowers reflecting the sun, exquisite bridge corridors with twists and turns, overlapping and scattered painting buildings and palaces, unique and unique water gardens, and countless painting boats... It is indeed a beautiful place.

Liu Qingtang spread out alone on the bamboo platform facing the water, casually reached out and picked up a grape from the jade plate beside the wide mat, stuffed it into his mouth, and stared boredly at the large piece of green bamboo rustling in the mountains not far away. .Yushui Villa is built by the lake, and most of the palaces are on the water, and this lake is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and there are large green bamboos growing on the surrounding mountains, reflecting the whole big lake is green.

The scenery is indeed beautiful, and she likes it very much, but the original intention of her coming here is Qin Shu, but Qin Shu doesn't stop even here, she is so busy all day that she can't see him, what's the matter .Liu Qingtang moved his eyes away from the green bamboo grove in the mountains, and stared at the slightly floating bamboo curtains on the bamboo platform and the golden bells making crisp ringing in a daze.

After being reborn, why did she feel that she suddenly became so idle?Liu Qingtang thought about it carefully, and realized that she might have asked for it in her previous life.

Not to mention at first, but she was still very busy after Qin Shu helped, because she didn't trust Qin Shu, or she didn't have anyone in the palace except Tao Ye Zhui, who grew up with her, and the emperor's nephew whom she valued. really trust.At that time, she always suspected that Qin Shu's conscientiousness had some intentions, and she always had to check and verify after he did something, so how could she not be busy with such suspicions.But now she has simply gone to another extreme compared to her previous life, letting Qin Shu do everything without any doubts.

Qin Shu's temperament, she delegated power to him like this, he must do everything the best and most appropriate, it's no wonder she can't be idle, but in contrast, Qin Shu became busy.What's the use of her being alone, Qin Shu doesn't understand why, he is so focused on doing things for her, probably if she doesn't tell him clearly, he won't understand what she means.

Thinking of this, Liu Qingtang felt that this could not go on any longer, so Huo Di sat up.But in the middle of getting up, she remembered the last time Qin Shu was restrained and supervised her.It seems that even if I tell him about some things, he has the ability to run counter to her ideas and make her angry. Who told him that everything is her first.

So Liu Qingtang smoothed her hair again in dejection, and slowly fell asleep.In the sound of the golden bells jingling under the eaves, Liu Qingtang tossed and turned in distress alone, and finally couldn't help but muttered in a low voice: "That guy must be busy tomorrow, if I don't dare to show up for my birthday, look How do I deal with him?"

After thinking about it, Liu Qingtang yelled loudly toward the lake, "Idiot!"

The echoes from the mountains came back one by one, and the word "stupid" echoed in my ears.Hearing that Liu Qingtang felt much more at ease, she carried a jade plate and ate the grapes inside wholeheartedly.

A court lady guarding outside tremblingly came in and asked her what's the matter. Liu Qingtang waved her hand indifferently, not seeing the annoyance and irritability just now.

"Yes... yes." The little palace maid backed out without even daring to raise her head, for fear of being angered by the moody Empress Dowager.

Qin Shu, who was sitting in a palace not far away, also heard this idiot. He listened carefully and said, "It's... the voice of the master, who made her angry? Why don't I go and have a look?"

The two people who were flying up and down embroidered a red dress refused him without raising their heads, "It's nothing, the master probably yelled out of boredom, because even if someone provoked her, she wouldn't make such a loud noise. "

Tao Ye was also embroidering with a corner of the red dress, and looked up at Qin Shu, who was fidgeting and looking out, with a half-smile, and said sharply: "I guess, the 'stupid' in the master's mouth refers to you, Qin Shu." bundle."

"Me?" Qin Shu was taken aback for a moment, then he thought of something and stood up and said, "I haven't gone to greet the master today, now..."

"Master is angry with you, it can't be because of this reason, you should stay here obediently, and you can wear that clothes to see master at night." Zhuiyi is older than Liu Qingtang, and usually looks stable, Now Qin Shu is being suppressed mercilessly.

Strange to say, the two sisters also felt that Qin Shu was gloomy and difficult to get along with at first, but after seeing him doing so many things and working so hard for his master, they gradually felt that this person was a good person, and they became more and more sincere for him and For the sake of the master.

Seeing that Qin Shu was obviously nervous about what happened at night, and it was obvious that people could see it, Tao Ye kindly comforted him, "When we dismiss all the waiters at night, you will wear that dress Waiting for the master on the bridge. Don't worry, you can trust us, even if the master is really angry, when the time comes, when you see your clothes, all anger will disappear, and all anger will be gone."

Tao Ye sometimes really thinks that her master and Qin Shu might be a natural match, because the master is like a rogue in front of familiar people and dignified in front of outsiders, and Qin Shu is docile in front of the master and gloomy and indifferent in front of others. The appearance is really similar.

As Qin Shu manages the Ci'an Palace more and more easily, and the palace prison has gradually become a nightmare for the slaves in the palace, more and more people in the palace are afraid of this young, but fierce and vicious Chief Manager Qin .But Taoye and the others watched from the master's side, and when they saw Qin Shu's completely different behavior towards the master, they felt a little funny, so they didn't think this person was terrible, but they understood why The master will only take a fancy to him.

As the sky gradually darkened, Taoye Zhuiyi and the two stopped their hands, shook off the red dress in their hands, looked at it, and folded it up on the tray with satisfaction.

"Let's prepare dinner for the master first, and when the master finishes the dinner, we will be responsible for paying off all the waiters and bringing her there, and you will wait there, and then everything will be up to you." Zhui Yi handed the dress to Qin Shu, and reiterated to him again.

Taoye saw that he was such a person who would never show his face unless he was in front of the master, now he was nervously pulling the red dress on his body, took a deep breath before taking the red dress they had just changed for the master, couldn't help it Puchi laughed out loud.

"Master will definitely be happy. This is her wish, isn't it? Qin Shu, put your heart in your stomach and show the aura of Chief Manager Qin when you don't usually see Master." That's what you said, but Taoye’s face was full of anticipation, and she didn’t hide it, and finally added a special sentence: “You should eat something while you’re waiting here, or when the time comes...you won’t have the strength to do something… No way."

On the surface he was calm, but inside he was so flustered that he didn't know what to do. Qin Shu nodded, but in fact he didn't hear what he said at all.

Taoye Xiuyi and the two left. Qin Shu was wearing a red dress, holding the newly completed red dress in his hands, feeling a little at a loss, and it took him a long time to lightly put the things on the table. He sat down on the chair next to him, looked at the sky outside, and held his hand tightly with some nervousness.

Besides, Liu Qingtang didn't see Qin Shu when he was having dinner, thinking that tomorrow would be his birthday, so it would be fine if he didn't see him, but there was no one at the moment, so he asked, "Dui Yi, Is Qin Shu still busy?"

When it comes to lying and looking for reasons, Zhui Yi is no match for Tao Ye, so Liu Qingtang naturally knew that, so he asked her.But now seeing Zhui Yi, she just nodded and said yes, and Tao Ye immediately came to take up the conversation with a smile, Liu Qingtang immediately smelled something different in it, they must have something to hide from her.

Tao Ye still said in a dignified way: "Master, those adults and wives in the imperial court in some nearby summer resorts knew that the master was here, and sent people to send many melons and fruits from their own farms. Director Qin went to meet him personally. There are still people counting and preparing to return some things."

Hearing Tao Ye's words in her ears, Liu Qingtang did not show any doubts, but she was guessing in her heart what they were doing without telling her.In fact, it's easy to guess. Tomorrow is her birthday. No matter what they plan to do, it probably has something to do with it.Such a guess made it easy to know why Qin Shu was busy these days, but he didn't know what Qin Shu was being tricked by these two.

With the bottom line in her heart, Liu Qingtang immediately calmed down, and simply cooperated with them and pretended not to know, just waiting to see what unexpected gift they prepared for her.Speaking of which, being so mysterious really made her look forward to it.

After dinner, the two suggested going to watch the moon again.Liu Qingtang originally thought that the surprise would be on tomorrow's birthday, but when she saw them deliberately emphasizing the appreciation of the moon, she immediately understood that they were probably ready tonight, so she was very cooperative and asked without asking. He agreed to watch the moon, and was led to the entrance of a long corridor by them.

There was already a person standing there.

"Master, forgive me, and the servants will step back."

There were already no waiters around, and after Taoye Zhuiyi retreated, only Liu Qingtang was left here, and Qin Shu was waiting not far away.

Liu Qingtang looked at Qin Shu who was standing there for a while, then suddenly walked over and leaned on his shoulder and smiled, "Qin Shu, this big red silk flower on your body looks really... so silly..."
