Chapter 180 Qin Qixuan gets promoted

Helian Shi has been silently in love with Qin Shu for so many years, but he has never disturbed her life. It can be seen that he is naturally not an impatient person.

So when he came to talk to Qin Shu with Xixi in his arms, he did not come to chat with her rashly, but because he took over the mission of the eldest princess, it was natural for him to take the opportunity to have more contact with Qin Shu.

"Master Qin, the eldest princess asked me to lead the way for you."

Helian Shi's tone was very normal, as if he was talking to a good friend who had not seen him for a long time. Qin Shu couldn't help but relax when she heard it.

Both of them were very calm, only Xiao Xixi felt a moment of loss.

[It turns out that the real assist is the eldest princess! ]

Even without her, Helian Shi would come to find his mother!

Qin Shu heard what Xiao Xixi said, and instantly remembered the eldest princess, the culprit.

She didn't believe that the princess didn't take her there herself, but asked Helian Shi to pick her up.

Helian Shi led the way for Qin Shu and explained to her and Qin Xixi why they were going to the backyard.

"This time, the princess didn't hold the banquet indoors, but by the lotus pond in the princess's mansion."

The princess was the sister of a monarch and had a good relationship with the Emperor of Daliang. The area of ​​her mansion was naturally not small, so she built a lotus pond directly on a vacant land in the mansion, ordered people to make some realistic artificial flowers, and carefully raised some lotus flowers next to the indoor brazier. This time, in order to entertain guests, she planned to display the lotus flowers for everyone to appreciate.

"The princess said that this banquet is mainly for entertaining young talents and young ladies from various families. She wants everyone to get to know each other, communicate more, cultivate some common interests and hobbies, and also make some like-minded friends. Based on the nature of this banquet, the banquet was held next to the lotus pond. With a charcoal fire, it won't be too cold. Everyone can chat, appreciate the lotus, watch singing and dancing, and make it lively."

It is rare to see lotus flowers blooming in winter, and no one would think that the princess' banquet was hasty.

Qin Shu secretly teased this handkerchief friend in her heart. Obviously, this banquet was set up to test Su Xiaoxiao. The princess knew how to make a show of it, so that a group of young men and women rushed to the banquet and left a good reputation.

However, because she still felt a little awkward in her heart, she only responded very softly and didn't say anything more.

She also deliberately kept a few steps away from Helian Shi, not letting them get too close to each other, in case someone saw them and gossiped.

After being talked about by court officials several times, Qin Shu inevitably became more cautious in her actions.

The distance from the garden to the lotus pond was quite long. The three of them walked for a long time and still hadn't arrived. Qin Shu then realized how far Helian Shi had walked to find her, and he had been holding Xixi. Qin Shu suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

"Why don't you give Xixi to me? I'll hold her for a while."

Helian Shi was very happy to see Qin Shu taking the initiative to talk to him and still caring about him, and he shook his head immediately.

"I'm not tired, Xixi is very light, and she and I get along well, so it's okay to hold her for a while longer."

Xixi happily put her hands on her waist after hearing this.

[New dad is right, Xixi is not heavy at all! Even though

Qin Xixi is just a little girl, she also has a heart that loves beauty. It must be said that Helian Shi's words pleased little Xixi very well.

Qin Shu opened the conversation, and Helian Shi could not help but find more topics to chat with her. The topics had to be appropriate, so that Qin Shu would be interested, but also not to damage Helian Shi's image.

"It is said that the eldest princess and the eldest son of Qin cooperated in the court before, and did a big thing."

Qin Shu was instantly attracted when she heard Helian Shi talking about Qin Qixuan.

Seeing her curious face, Helian Shi knew that she didn't know about this. He didn't keep her in suspense and told Qin Shu directly.

"The princess and the eldest son Qin have investigated several officials for corruption, bribery, favoritism, and extortion. The evidence is sufficient. The emperor was furious and dismissed those ministers who caused chaos in the court on the spot. The lighter punishment was exile, and the heavier punishment was execution."

Helian Shi naturally inquired about the cause and effect of this matter. When he heard that these officials had criticized Qin Shu for no reason, he wanted to kill those officials to avenge Qin Shu. He couldn't help but have a better impression of Qin Qixuan.

Qin Shu understood after hearing this. These were the people Xixi mentioned last time.

The princess was very efficient. It didn't take long for her to find the evidence. But she didn't expect Qin Qixuan to participate in the process of accusing the court officials.

Thinking of how Qin Qixuan had argued with the scholars to vent her anger, Qin Shu was touched. This son was not raised in vain.

At this time, the second child in the distance suddenly sneezed, and Su Xiaoxiao asked him with concern if he had a cold.

Helian Shi had just finished talking about this with Qin Shu, and the three of them ran into Qin Qixuan, who was also on his way to the banquet.

Helian Shi saw him and said with a smile.

"I was just talking about you, you are so powerful at such a young age, you have a bright future."

Qin Shu was relieved and worried when she saw him.

"You know how to avenge your mother, but you are still very powerful, be careful not to be envied."

Helian Shi shook his head in disapproval.

"Although Qixuan is very popular, there is no one in the court who doesn't praise him. Even the emperor wants to promote him because of this matter."

Qin Shu was extremely surprised. You know, Qin Qixuan just got promoted, and he is going to be promoted again?

When did promotion become such a simple thing?

Qin Qixuan smiled and responded, understanding what they were talking about, and then said meaningfully.

"In fact, we have to thank General Helian for this!"

Qin Xixi secretly gave her eldest brother a thumbs up. The eldest brother's assist was good, and the timing was especially right. It was many times better than the second brother's blunt assist. Qin Shu

was a little surprised. Helian Shi was actually involved in it? Now the connection with him is getting deeper and deeper.

Seeing that Helian Shi did not mention his own merits, Qin Qixuan smiled and pointed out,

"General Helian said a lot of good things about me in front of the emperor. Otherwise, although the emperor might remember my merits, he might not necessarily promote me."

It was Helian Shi who mentioned it at the time, and the emperor thought it was okay, so he thought about promoting Qin Qixuan again.

However, anyone with a discerning eye can see that, given the level of attention Qin Qixuan is receiving now, he will surely become the emperor's right-hand man in the future. As for promotion, it is only a matter of time and speed.

Qin Qixuan said so. Although Qin Shu felt a little embarrassed in front of Helian Shi, she couldn't just say nothing.

She immediately thanked him very sincerely.

"General Helian took good care of the second son in the barracks before, and now he is still taking care of Qixuan in the court. I really don't know how to thank you for this kindness!"
