Chapter 8

Quan Juan lowered his eyes to look at the glistening and shiny pieces of meat in the bowl, without changing his complexion: "It is indeed Beiming's hometown dish. It is fat but not greasy and melts in your mouth. Your Highness should try it."

With that said, Quan Juan put the fat meat into the small bowl in front of Su Tian.

Su Tian only likes sweets, and has no feeling for meat. Looking at the greasy meat, her stomach will churn, and she quickly puts it back: "I recently lost weight, so I should use it for my son-in-law."

"No need to be polite, Your Highness."

"It's better for the consort to eat."

……

The two pushed back and forth, and the chopsticks almost fought in the air.

Quan Juan narrowed his eyes, and the corners of his lips suddenly curled up into a smile. He put down his chopsticks and said, "Let's be honest, what exactly do you want, His Highness, to hold this Hongmen banquet today?"

"The son-in-law's words are wrong. I kindly invite the son-in-law to have a meal. How can it be called a Hongmen banquet?"

Quan Juan looked at her with irony but not irony.

Su Tian was defeated: "Okay, I want to make a deal with the son-in-law."

Quan Jue tapped twice on the brow bone with his fingertips: "I don't know what your Highness wants?"

"I want Qianqiu to be safe." Su Tian said word by word.

Quan Jue sighed, and said softly, "Your Highness thinks highly of me, I'm powerless."

"Stop pretending to be confused!" Su Tian gritted her teeth.

Fuck your hands, you have no power to bind a chicken!Do you want to nod your face!Her arm still hurts to this day.

Quan Jue raised his eyebrows slightly: "What is your Highness talking about, why do I become more and more confused the more I listen to it?"

Quan Juan made it clear that he would not cooperate. Su Tian took a deep breath and lowered her voice, "Quan Juan, since you are here, we are just grasshoppers on the same rope. Qianqiu really has something, you don’t even think about leaving this land alive!”

Quan Yu smiled: "Your Highness holds the power of life and death, so naturally what His Highness says will be what he says."

Su Tian stared at him: "Is it really what I say?"

"I regret my life, Your Highness."

Su Tian softened her face, "Your son-in-law should eat quickly, he's too busy talking, this meal is going to be cold."

Quan Juan lowered his head and glanced at the fat in the bowl: "Your Highness should use it. I'm not blessed, so I'm afraid I won't be able to enjoy it."

While the two were refusing, a voice suddenly came from outside: "Your Highness, the general is asking to see you outside."

"Please." Su Tian raised her eyebrows and raised her voice.

Qianqiu's general He Qing was originally her fourth brother's companion, because they were of the same age, they often mixed together to read and write when they were young, and Su Tian became acquainted with him after coming and going.

Now that several princes have died one after another, He Qing is now in the same camp as Su Tian.

The door was open, and a tall and straight man was ushered in, wearing a brocade robe with narrow sleeves, and walked neatly.

Su Tian turned her head to look at Quan Jue in front of her, and said in a low voice, "That's General He, I think the son-in-law has seen it before."

At that time, it was He Qing who went to meet the Beiming mission outside the city.

"Ah."

The man stopped when he approached, turned his body slightly, and carefully helped the woman who was covered by his mountainous body come in.

It was a thin girl, wearing a flowing fairy dress, with a gold and silver powder-painted shawl wrapped around her elbows, her head was slightly hanging down, making it difficult to see her face clearly.

"I see Your Highness, son-in-law." He Qing cupped his hands and saluted the two of them sternly. His brows and eyes were heroic, with a murderous and aggressive beauty.

The girl beside him followed him and bowed down gracefully.

Su Tian hurriedly stretched out her hand to help her, and said: "How many times have I said, there is no need to be polite if there is no outsider to congratulate Brother."

"Courtesy cannot be discarded, Your Highness."

Quan Yi slightly raised his eyelids, and his eyes casually passed over the woman beside He Qing with her head hanging down, but the words were addressed to He Qing: "General He hasn't eaten yet, why don't we go together?"

"Let's all sit down and talk." Su Tian glanced at He Qing's side, and teased, "Which family's daughter is this? Ben Gong looks at Mian Shan, no wonder General He, who made us ascetic, also learn to hide So cute."

He Qing was not yet married, and this was the first time he brought a woman to Changle Palace, and he didn't know which daughter it was, as if he had no memory of it before.

The woman lowered her head, and accidentally raised her eyes, Su Tian finally caught her beauty.

The facial features are very good, the eyebrows are slender, the face has not been applied with makeup, but the outline is exquisite, and a red tear mole is formed at the corner of the slightly hooked eyes like a peach blossom, which adds a little bit of beauty to her clean face.

A proper flower of wealth and honor in the world, Su Tian couldn't believe that there are still people with such perfect facial features.

Su Tian withdrew her amazed eyes, and couldn't help but glance at Quan Juan. There was also a tear mole in the corner of his eye, which was light black, but he had different pupils. Ordinary people only pay attention to those eyes, so they don't pay much attention to them. He also has a tear mole in the corner of his eye.

"Your Highness, you misunderstood," He Qing blushed, explained, and helped the woman beside him to sit down on the stool, and then sat down by himself, continuing with a bit of embarrassment, "The minister and this girl It's not that kind of relationship, she was picked up by Chen Bu a few days ago."

"... Picked it up? Where did Big Brother He pick it up? I'll pick one up later." Su Tian joked after being surprised.

Facing Su Tian's suspicious eyes, He Qing explained somewhat hesitantly: "...to tell you the truth, I went to meet my son-in-law in a border area a few days ago, and on the way home, I accidentally bumped into a soldier trying to bully this girl in the county. I rescued her, then asked her where her home was and she didn't say a word, just followed Chen not far or near, Chen looked pitiful and brought her back first."

"Oh, is that so?" Su Tian elongated the ending, her eyes lingering on the two of them.

To put it bluntly, it's not just that people look good. If this is an ugly monster, she doesn't believe that He Qing can bring him back.

Everyone has a love of beauty, she can understand, but such a beautiful and delicate girl is not at all like a homeless refugee, how can it be picked up casually?
When things go wrong, there must be demons. If it's just for money and sex, it's okay, I'm afraid it has ulterior motives...

Thinking like that from the bottom of her heart, Su Tian's delicate makeup didn't show on her face. She took the woman's hand and slipped the bracelet on her slender wrist, "It's the first time we meet today. I didn’t bring anything suitable either, this hollowed-out twisted silk bracelet was also obtained recently, so give it to the girl as a meeting gift.”

I don't know who gave her the wedding gift, when she counted the presents, she looked good and put them on casually, but unexpectedly there would be a jingling sound when she made a slight movement, attracting everyone's sideways glances.

The woman shook her head and raised her hand to refuse.

With a sound of "Kata", Su Tian pressed the hidden buckle of the bracelet to death, and it was just stuck on the slender wrist, not loose or tight: "I think it fits, the girl can wear it."

It was a hollowed-out bracelet with three strands of skeined silk, which had extremely high requirements on the craftsmanship of the craftsman and the material itself.
