Chapter 23 Thousand-year-old Ginseng

These are the words of the beloved little grandson of the emperor, how could the third brother dare to say no.

Moreover, he just heard that his sister really wanted to go to the Jinke Banquet.

Not to mention his sister, after hearing what she said, he also wanted to eat that big melon!

But can he just let Pei Xuanyi take his sister away like this?

The third brother was very conflicted.

Although it seems that several people like Qin Xixi very much now, they are all from the royal family after all.

It is said that the royal family is ruthless, and he has not come into contact with the grandson of the emperor and the princess. Who knows if Xixi will be punished for bumping into a nobleman immediately after leaving his sight...

He was anxious, but he could only watch Pei Xuanyi carry Qin Xixi away, get on the carriage, and go to the palace.

After all, due to the huge disparity in status, he did not dare to step forward to persuade him to stay.

After the others left, the third son immediately ran out of the restaurant, and did not even have time to find a carriage. He ran back home at the fastest speed in his life.

"Mom, something bad has happened!"

Qin Shu's heart skipped a beat when she heard her son's nervous voice .

She also saw the little fat boy who usually didn't like to exercise was now panting and his head was full of sweat.

And Xixi in her arms was nowhere to be seen!

She was panicking, would Xixi be in trouble!

The little fat boy took a breath and spoke.

"Mom, we just..."

At this time, he didn't care whether his mother would beat him up or not. He quickly repeated what happened in the restaurant to his mother.

Qin Shu's face became darker and darker, and her fists clenched tighter.

The third brother's voice gradually weakened, and he was really nervous because of his guilty conscience.

"...Then Xixi was taken to the palace by His Royal Highness the Grandson!"

Qin Shu didn't know what to say anymore.

"Didn't you say that you would bring her back the same way you took her out?"

"Our Qin family is not an unscrupulous family in the capital. How can you use money to pressure others like this? You have hit a wall this time!"

The third brother shook his head in embarrassment.

"Didn't I already promise my sister? It doesn't matter if my sister doesn't understand, but she is so smart..."

So he said that my sister was wrong?

Qin Shu was so angry that she beat the third brother.

She was not afraid that Xixi would be in danger like the third brother thought. After all, Pei Xuanyi helped them twice and seemed to like Xixi very much.

As the grandson of the emperor who is praised by everyone, she naturally does not need to question his character.

However, the situation in the palace is complicated after all. Although Xixi is smart, she does not understand the intrigues.

The child is immature and it would be bad if he offends the nobles.

Qin Shu and the princess are close friends. Naturally, she also received an invitation to the Jinke Banquet.

Qin Shu has participated in palace banquets in previous years, but after participating, the ladies of various mansions would always laugh at her for being fat and shameful for women. Therefore, she would attend fewer banquets and show up less.

The same is true for this Jinke Banquet. She didn't want to attend it at first.

But now, for Xixi, she has to go to the banquet.

She glared at her son fiercely. This time he was frightened. She believed that he must have learned a lesson this time.

The Qin family was in the spotlight. They must not act too high-profile in the future.

Just when she packed up and was about to go out, the servant brought a box to her.

"Madam, someone just came from the palace and said that this was sent by His Royal Highness the Grandson."

Pei Xuanyi?

Qin Shu took it quickly.

When she opened the box, she found a thousand-year-old ginseng inside!

She was surprised.

At that time, Manager Yang said that His Royal Highness the Grandson had a plant of this herb, and she had no intention of asking him for it.

Although according to the Grandson's intelligence, it was not difficult to guess that they needed a thousand-year-old ginseng through Manager Yang's movements.

But he was willing to give such a precious treasure to the Qin family, which was undoubtedly a great favor to them!

Qin Shu was somewhat moved, and she also understood in her heart that the emperor's grandson should have done this for the sake of the Qin family's children.

This time the emperor's grandson helped them again, and he was definitely a nobleman of their Qin family and Qin Shu's savior.

She carefully put the thousand-year-old ginseng together with the treasure she had taken from the medicine shop before, and took her own carriage to the palace.

Qin Shu was full of thoughts along the way, and finally arrived at the palace gate. She hurriedly got off the carriage and prepared to enter the palace.

Unexpectedly, she was stopped again.

Looking at Zhou Yiyang, who was smiling flatteringly in front of her, Qin Shu doubted her own and her parents' vision for the umpteenth time.

How could I not see that he was so pretentious and cowardly at that time.

"What's the matter?"

Qin Shu could hardly have a good tone towards Zhou Yiyang.

"Madam, you are not feeling well today. Why don't I accompany you to the palace and take care of you?"

He said this in a very high-sounding way.

Qin Shu rolled her eyes.

He takes care of you? If there is anything wrong with her, Zhou Yiyang will be happier than anyone else.

I'm afraid that taking care of me is fake, and going to the palace to see his son who won the third place in the imperial examination is the real thing!

I don't know what kind of magic potion Zhou Qing fed him. She

doesn't want the son of the first place in the imperial examination, but prefers the son of the third place in the imperial examination.

Fortunately, Qin Shu doesn't care about her son having such a father.

But she is not so generous as to bring him into the palace, Qin Shu refused with a fake smile.

"There are many rules and regulations in the palace. I have been in and out since I was young, so I know a thing or two. It is enough for me to have Yinbao accompany me. If you go in..."

She shook her head and said nothing.

Zhou Yiyang's face turned pale and he was speechless.

This fat woman is saying that he has no rules in both open and covert ways!

Qin Shu doesn't care what Zhou Yiyang thinks, she is still thinking about her little Xixi in her heart, and has no time to deal with Zhou Yiyang.

Looking at Qin Shu's leaving back, Zhou Yiyang's back teeth are about to break.

But seeing that she only brought Yinbao into the palace, Xiaoqi and others were still waiting by the carriage.

Zhou Yiyang has another plan at this time.

Thinking of Xiaoqi's flirting with him before, Zhou Yiyang wants to find out what she is thinking.

"Do you know how the lady is doing recently?"

Is she often fainting, in a very bad condition, as if she is about to die?

He calculated that the time is almost up, and this fat woman will not be so powerful for much longer.

But he didn't see a flash of contempt in Xiaoqi's eyes.

Madam had guessed it right. Zhou Yiyang would ask about her health!

Madam had already given instructions, so the maids naturally knew what to say.

Xiao Qi pretended to wipe away tears at this time.

"Madam has been fainting more and more frequently recently. Sometimes she faints once in the morning and again in the afternoon. It seems that she is getting worse day by day."

As expected!

Zhou Yiyang was proud.

It seems that the poison is working well.

So what if he is the high and mighty head of the Qin family? He will still die at the hands of Zhou Yiyang!

When Qin Shu dies, the entire Qin Mansion will be in his pocket!

By then, his son and daughter will have a good status naturally, and his son Zhou Fangze's future will naturally be much better than Qin Qixuan.

He was proud in his heart, but a sad expression appeared on his face.

He sighed hypocritically and left the palace gate.
