Chapter 200 Watching the fire from the other side (19)

"The next official has met the empress"

Bo He and Long Baiyao came at just the right time, they arrived with Shi Shushun, but they came in hiding from other people, and Shi Shushun was brought here.

As soon as the two of them found the best eavesdropping position and hid, Shi Shushun was led in and bowed to the queen humbly.

"Master, there is no need to be polite, please sit down."

Although seeing Shi Shushun's attitude towards her, the empress felt that her thoughts today were playful, but after all, she was a queen, so no matter how happy she was, she still looked expressionless.

However, most of the queen's impressions of Shi Shushun were heard from others and she did not really understand him.

So she didn't know that Shi Shushun, known as Mr. Pianpian, was so humble to everyone, even if he met beggars on the road, he would have the same attitude, so in fact, the queen really just thought too much.

"I don't know why the queen came to see me today."

After sitting down, Shi Shushun asked the queen with a puzzled look.

But no matter what Shi Shushun said, he was hailed as a rare genius by the people of the Dragon Kingdom. Although it may be an exaggeration, if he didn't even know the purpose of the queen looking for him today, then he was really just an embroidered pillow. .

It was obvious that Shi Shushun was not an embroidered pillow, so he knew very well what the Empress Empress was looking for for him.

Of course, he didn't want to come, but the empress personally sent someone to invite him, no matter how much he was valued by the emperor, it was hard to refuse him.

"It's nothing serious, just heard that Mr. Shi is talented and knowledgeable, and has been known for a long time. Didn't it just happen that Mr. Shi is free today, so he sent someone to invite you over, and you are disturbing Mr. Shi?"

The queen liked Shi Shushun more and more. In recent years, the emperor's suppression of their family has become more and more blatant. Many of their confidantes who were placed in important positions were replaced by the emperor under various names. The public is in dire need of fresh blood.

Under such circumstances, Shi Shushun, known as the leader of the younger generation, has just come into the eyes of the public. As long as Shi Shushun marries her family A Yao, even if the emperor wants to embarrass him, he has to ask Long Guo Whether the people are happy or not.

Therefore, for Shi Shushun, their family is bound to win.

If he is obedient, she can treat him with more courtesy as she does now, but if he doesn't know what to do and plans to kiss the emperor, then don't blame them for being cruel.

"The empress is serious, those false names are just exaggerated by everyone," Shi Shushun said respectfully.

"Master, don't be self-effacing. Speaking of which, my family's A Yao is about the same age as Master Shi. A Yao likes to recite poems and draw pictures when she has nothing to do. If Master is free, you can communicate with each other."

In less than three sentences, the queen felt that the preparation was almost done, so she brought the topic to Long Baiyao.

Hearing that the queen said that Long Baiyao usually likes to recite poems and paint pictures, Mint looked at Long Baiyao who was hiding behind the rockery with her.

Long Baiyao looked at Mint and looked at her, and quickly shook his head to express that he didn't.

She followed Mint around all day long and had no time to recite poetry or paint. Instead, she learned a lot about crawling into dog holes and climbing walls.

As for reciting poems and painting, she could only hold back her silence when others were doing it, pretending to understand and nodding her head foolishly.

It has to be said that a good princess has completely gone astray since following Mint, but it is this habit of blushing at every turn, no matter how Mint corrects it, Long Baiyao just can't change it.

"The Queen is joking. I am a lowly official, so how dare I join the princess?"

After Shi Shushun heard the Queen's hint, he didn't understand that the Queen wanted him and Long Baiyao to be alone.

"You are so brave"

In the queen's subconscious mind, after Shi Shushun heard her words, she should look grateful.

After all, even if Shi Shushun is favored again, and the people give him such a messy reputation, he is just a courtier. She is a dignified queen, and she puts down her airs to invite him. How dare he pretend to be confused for her? Don't take her seriously.

"I don't know where the official has angered the empress, and I ask the empress to calm down."

Facing the Queen's accusation, Shi Shushun still said calmly. When he stood up to apologize, he did not forget to tidy up his clothes.

"you you……"

The Queen finally realized that Shi Shushun was pretending to be stupid for her from the beginning.

That's right, there are princesses of the right age, including the sixth and seventh princesses. Shi Shushun is now in his twenties and hasn't married a wife yet. Isn't this a clear plan to go to the sky in one step and save a few years of struggle if he wants to marry a princess?

But now it seems that the target of his fancy is not her A Yao, but Xiao Qi, that stinky girl.

In fact, the queen really wronged her teacher Shushun. He has not married yet, but only focuses on his career, and has never met anyone who interests him, so he plans to start a career first and then start a family.

On the contrary, Prime Minister Shi has always been worried that he will be favored by the emperor or queen and recruited as a consort, although that will indeed take a long time.

But in that case, he could have a bright future by relying on his hard work. If he became a son-in-law, there would be many restrictions. Moreover, the prime minister has been in the court for so many years, so how could he fail to see the relationship between the emperor and the public.

The reason why he was able to become the prime minister is that he always knows how to protect himself, maintains a neutral attitude, and does not participate in the struggle of any party, so for his only son, he also hopes that he can remain neutral in this dark and turbulent court. .

"Empress, if you have nothing else to do, I will leave now."

Shi Shushun watched the queen's face turn green from his anger, and said calmly.

Mint, who was watching the excitement, had to praise Shi Shushun in the face of the current scene, "God man, this is the first time she has seen them, the master of the harem, so angry, amazing."

"It's not that easy to leave. Someone comes and takes..."

As soon as the queen heard that Shi Shushun wanted to leave, she immediately ordered someone to beat him to vent her anger.

Maybe the greater the expectation, the angrier she gets. Ever since she became the queen, no one has dared to ignore her like this. Even the emperor would give her some face. So facing Shi Shushun's disregard today, the queen now just wants to Let someone drag him out and give him a beating so that he can remember it for a long time. As for the rest, wait until she gets angry.

"What are you still doing in a daze, your chance to perform has come"

Mint looked at her little follower with an anxious expression on her face, said something to her in a low voice, and pushed her out with all her strength.

Really, assists and so on, it's really annoying, she is still single now, why no one came to assist her.

"Hey, I..."
