Lin Shuyao might not have imagined that at this moment in the palace, Emperor Xiao Qi and Shen Qiuchi were discussing the matter of granting marriage and were quite troubled.
Xu Xingyi has already leaked the information, but if the imperial edict is given directly to Xu Xingyi, given his bad temper, he will probably make a fuss.
"My junior brother has an extreme and stubborn personality. I'm afraid he won't agree."
Xiao Qi couldn't help but feel a bit overwhelmed. Yes, without the imperial edict, how could he make King Liang let down his guard?
Shen Qiuchi also rubbed his eyebrows, and was at a loss as to where to start for a moment.
"Then I'll have to keep it a secret from him for now." Shen Qiuchi sighed.
"Once they get married, it's a done deal. No matter how unwilling they are, they can't change the facts."
"Haha, what I mean is that Liu Fu should go to the Lin family to read out the imperial edict!"
"What about your junior brother?"
"I'll figure it out."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Qi nodded. Although this method was a bit unkind, it was the only solution at the moment.
However, doing so would probably make Lin Shuyao feel wronged.
Shen Qiuchi naturally thought of this, but she believed that Shuyao was a sensible person and she should understand their difficulties.
Moreover, Xu Xingyi and Lin Shuyao are a match made in heaven. Although there is no love between them, their contribution to stabilizing the government and the internal turmoil cannot be ignored.
However, Mei Qing, who was beside Shen Qiuchi, couldn't help but look worried, and glanced at Shen Qiuchi with an unnatural look.
"Xiao Qi is not an outsider, Mei Qing, just speak frankly!"
The words "I'm not a stranger" made Xiao Qi put on a good attitude and felt very happy.
His Qiu Chi treated him as one of his own and he was very happy.
Leaving aside Xiao Qi's imagination, the nanny pointed out the key to the problem.
"I'm afraid Lord Xu is not someone who can agree to something without telling you. If Lord Xu doesn't agree to this, even if we really keep it a secret and make it a done deal, Lord Xu is not a humble gentleman who is willing to take responsibility."
As soon as Shen Qiuchi and Xiao Qi heard this, they naturally thought of the last time Shen Qingxu was forcibly taken away by Xu Xingyi. If Shen Qiuchi hadn't acted decisively and asked Elder Tianji for help, I'm afraid...
"Mei Qing, what you said makes sense." Shen Qiuchi pondered for a while, and pushed Xiao Qi, "Xiao Qi, you go and deal with Shuyao. As for Xu Xingyi, I'll go and talk to him. Just draft the decree. If he really doesn't want to, then forget it. This imperial decree, ah..."
Shen Qiuchi is not the type of person who gives up easily. It is her nature to never give up until she achieves her goal. If she gave up so easily, she would not be sitting on the position of queen today.
Seeing this, Xiao Qi said no more. The atmosphere in Qinghua Mansion was much better at this time. After Shen Qingxu's fever subsided, Lin Shuyao breathed a sigh of relief.
Qinghua Mansion.
While she was sick and dreaming, Shen Qingxu's consciousness was wandering, as if she had jumped out of the notebook. In a trance, she seemed to see some unreal things. A man drew a knife against her sister in the Golden Palace. The scene changed and finally King Liang died tragically. Shen Qingxu was frightened awake.
Now when he opened his eyes, he saw Lin Shuyao's worried face.
In Shen Qingxu's mind, she already knew whose daughter Lin Shuyao was. In her dream, the blood-spattered King Liang had a face that was so similar to Lin Shuyao's. She lowered her eyes and couldn't help but sigh.
Lin Shuyao took care of him meticulously, and Shen Qingxu felt even more melancholy.
She had felt something was wrong long before, and Lin Shuyao must have realized those things a few days ago, otherwise why would she always look so guilty towards her.
"Qingxu, do you want to drink porridge? You really scared me. Every time you are sick, you sleep for a long time. If the imperial physician hadn't said that you were fine this time, we would have almost gone to find your sister."
Seeing Shen Qingxu wake up, Lin Shuyao was very happy and couldn't help muttering.
"Oh, Shuyao, you are such a nagging housekeeper. I'm afraid you'll scare me to death before I can even drink the medicine or eat the meat."
Seeing Shen Qingxu's relaxed expression, which seemed to be fine, Lin Shuyao rolled her eyes at Shen Qingxu: "People say that those who can live for a thousand years are either disasters or fairies. With your mouth, I think you are neither of the two."
"Then what am I?"
"You, you are an immortal fairy, hahaha!"
Shen Qingxu laughed when she heard that, then made a face at Lin Shuyao. She looked so cute sticking out her tongue that Lin Shuyao couldn't help but poke her forehead.
Looking up at Lin Shuyao, the girl's eyes were clear and full of doting. Shen Qingxu felt more and more uncomfortable. If these two good friends stood on opposite sides one day, what should she do?
For a moment, I couldn't help but burst into tears.
In the original plot of the storybook, it was described in a few words later that Lin Shuyao's mother was once a concubine of the Lin family, that is, the mother of the current emperor Xiao Qi. The two have the same mother but different father. The old emperor at that time, that is, Xiao Qi's grandfather, once had a concubine whom he doted on to the core - Concubine Qi.
This Prince of Liang was the son of the old emperor and his favorite concubine, Concubine Qi.
At that time, the most popular candidate for the throne was Prince Liang. Prince Liang was ambitious, and in his heart he wanted to restore order. Now...
Shen Qingxu had a lot of questions to ask Lin Shuyao, but looking at Lin Shuyao's beautiful face, she could only say one sentence out of thousands of words, "Shuyao, if one day... I mean if, if one day, the two of us must stand on opposite sides, what should we do then?"
Shen Qingxu's thoughtful expression and the hint of tears in her eyes made Lin Shuyao pause, and in a daze, she understood.
Shen Qingxu must know everything. Looking at her friend who was usually carefree, she sighed deeply in her heart.
In fact, Shen Qingxu is very smart.
But after a while, Lin Shuyao hugged Shen Qingxu, wiped away the tears from the corners of Shen Qingxu's eyes with a handkerchief, and told Shen Qingxu seriously and solemnly, and also told herself: "Qingxu, this day will not come! Believe me, I will not let this day come!"
The two girls hugged each other and cried bitterly. The day when the truth was revealed came unexpectedly. Lin Shuyao had not yet figured out how to tell Shen Qingxu about her.
But this time when she fell into the water and had a fever, Shen Qingxu saw many things in the storybook that she had never known, and she was also hesitating whether to tell Shen Qingxu.
It was half an hour later that the two finally calmed down.
