Chapter 20 Oh wow! I heard it!



In front of the stall, a man with a straight posture, thin figure and a silver mask stood in front of the stall.

In his hand, he was holding a piece of red paper with a puzzle written on it. Because he was wearing a mask, others could only see his dark eyes that were calm under the mask, making it difficult to tell what he was thinking.

And on his shoulder, a little girl wearing a fox mask was lying on top of him.

Under the half fox mask, the little girl's tightly pursed lips revealed her current emotions.

Finally, when the man handed the red paper in his hand to the vendor and told him the answer to the puzzle, and was about to pick up the second piece of red paper.

The little girl couldn't help but ask, "Dad, don't you want to go and take a look?"

Just now, Li Shengyi was struggling over whether to tell Qin Songmo that Su Jinrou appeared outside the palace.

Qin Songmo, who was carrying her, suddenly turned around. He was tall and saw Su Jinrou at a glance.

Li Shengyi took the opportunity to tell him that it was about Su Jinrou.

I thought he would catch up with me, but he took me directly to a stall that was giving away little rabbit lanterns as prizes.

As the prime minister of the current dynasty, Qin Songmo is smart and clever, so a few small puzzles are naturally not difficult for him.

The smile on the vendor's face was beginning to fade because he answered the questions so quickly.

Li Shengyi's words made the vendor feel a little relieved.

Without waiting for Qin Songmo to say anything.

The peddler quickly grabbed the little rabbit lantern and handed it to the father and daughter.

"Master, these are all new questions. You are amazing. You solved most of them in one go."

"I'm just running a small business. I'm giving this lantern to my young lady. Would you like to look somewhere else?"

The puzzles are not yet solved.

The hawker couldn't help but bring the lantern in front of him.

Li Shengyi blinked, and then he heard a deep voice in his ear, "Take it."

After Li Shengyi reached out to take the lantern and thanked the vendor, the father and daughter turned and left.

"Dad, aren't you going to look for the Imperial Concubine? What if she's in danger?"

[It would be best if he were in danger, so that my father wouldn't be deceived and end up in prison and die there.]

Qin Songmo's expression remained calm, and he never let go of the hand that held her ankle. "You also know her identity. Since she can leave the palace, it means that the emperor has agreed."

"If she had left the palace without the emperor's approval, it would have nothing to do with me if something happened to her."

Such a cold tone.

Li Shengyi leaned on his shoulder, listening to what he said, and couldn't help feeling a little confused.

"That's not right. Although my father appears cold-hearted and emotionless, he is actually the most loyal and devoted one."

[Why is he acting so cold now? Could it be that he has already deployed secret guards behind Su Jinrou? To protect her safety?]

Thinking about it this way, everything makes sense.

After all, this is the setting in the original book.

Qin Songmo seems aloof, but actually he is devoted.

Whenever Su Jinrou had something to do, although he didn't show any expression on the surface, he would actually keep all her matters in mind and then complete them.

The plot of Su Jinrou leaving the palace this time was not written in the original book.

Perhaps it’s because Qin Songmo rarely leaves the house.

The Girl's Day only describes the palace banquet. He caught Su Jinrou and Chu Huaifeng having an affair, and he was so angry that he ignored Su Jinrou for a month.

With a light sigh, Li Shengyi nodded slightly, "Okay."

Qin Songmo slightly tightened his grip on her ankles.

He wanted to tell her not to have any more wild thoughts, because he had not sent any secret guards to guard Su Jinrou.

But as soon as the words reached his throat, he swallowed them back.

If he told her to stop thinking about it, who knows what she might continue to think about.

Maybe in the future he will be wary of me and eavesdrop on her thoughts.

With his brows slightly furrowed, Qin Songmo let the pedestrians walk past him and looked up at the restaurant not far away.

"Come up and sit down?"

Li Shengyi got the little rabbit lantern he had been longing for. He was very satisfied and didn't have the energy to continue playing.

After listening to Qin Songmo's proposal, she nodded.

Because it was Girls' Day, Manxiang Garden was also full of people.

It was Qingfeng who announced Qin Songmo's name, and then the master and his servants sat in the box on the second floor.

The box faces the street, and you can see the magnificent street scenery just by lowering your head.

Li Shengyi leaned against the window, holding a piece of pea yellow in his hand, "Dad, is the palace banquet fun?"

Qin Songmo paused drinking his tea after hearing this and said, "This singing and dancing party is so boring."

It was indeed something Qin Songmo could say.

Li Shengyi withdrew his gaze from Sheng Jing downstairs. The moment he turned around, he heard a woman's scream suddenly coming from the next box.

"ah--!!"

The pea yellow in his hand fell on the table out of fright, and Li Shengyi stared at the pastry with wide eyes.

Before Qin Songmo could reach out his hand, he saw her lower her head, open her mouth and suck the pastry directly into her mouth.

Qin Songmo, "...dirty."

"It's a shame to waste."

Raise your hand and gently stroke your forehead.

Qin Songmo sometimes really doesn't know how to get along with a five-year-old child.

He even wanted to observe how other ministers' families raised their children.

However, he was busy with official duties, and his little daughter was usually well-behaved, so he kept putting this matter off.

Now it seems that he really needs to go to the palace to find a nanny to ask for advice on how to raise a child.

Also, visiting the minister's home to observe how he raises his children needs to be put on the agenda.

The box door was not closed tightly.

When a woman screamed in the next box just now, Qingfeng quickly went out to check what was going on.
