Chapter 271 Tavern Story
Although Xiao Si has seen the power of the imperial power, he knows it clearly in his heart, but he cannot accept it and cannot adapt to it. If
he stays in the capital in the future, he will probably offend many powerful people.
Even if Qin Shu thinks that Xiao Si is right, she can't make everyone in the capital agree with her, and she can't save Xiao Si every time.
So letting him leave the capital may be the best decision.
Xiao Si also understood, and he nodded.
Although he can't see his family all the time when he is away, he is truly free.
When Qin Shu scolded Xiao Si, Xiao Xixi was listening to him boredly.
When Qin Shu finished scolding, she remembered that she had just acted on her own and sent away the white deer that Xixi had found.
If it were any other family, the child's pet would be given away.
But the Qin family always respected the children's ideas. Qin Shu was also anxious and wanted to appease the emperor, so she blurted out that she wanted to give the white deer away.
Qin Shu looked at little Xixi at this time, and she couldn't help feeling a little guilty. No matter what, the white deer was a little pet that Xixi found. Would she be sad by doing this?
"Xixi, mother just told the emperor that she wanted to give your white deer away. Would Xixi be unhappy?"
Qin Shu was very worried that little Xixi would be sad, but words spoken could not be forgotten, and it was a promise made in front of the emperor.
"If Xixi still wants it, mother will try her best to find another white deer for you in the future. However, white deer are spiritual creatures, and there are very few that are kept outside the royal family. Mother is afraid that if we keep a white deer at home, we know it is just a pet, but the emperor may not think so..."
An innocent man is guilty of possessing a jade. Even if the Qin family has no bad intentions, as long as people know that the Qin family has a white deer, the charge of treason will hang over their heads like a knife.
Some time ago, when Qin Shu found a white deer in little Xixi's yard, she was already very surprised.
After asking Qin Qixuan, it was not bought for Xixi by the brothers or the little grandson of the emperor. Could it be that the little white deer ran in by itself?
She originally wanted to discuss with Xixi to offer this white deer as a tribute to the emperor.
Seeing Qin Shu's guilty expression, little Xixi shook her head nonchalantly.
[Xixi's things are mother's things. If mother wants to give it to the emperor, then give it away. This pet was found by Beibei. At worst, Beibei can find another one!]
Xixi babbled a lot and let Beibei come out of her sleeve. She pressed its head and nodded.
Qin Shu looked at the big and small one and felt very relieved.
Xixi is indeed the most obedient child in the family. She knows how to help her mother manage the household at such a young age.
Qin Shu held little Xixi in her arms and touched her head.
"Our Xixi is such a good child. Mother will definitely find a suitable little pet for Beibei if she has the chance in the future."
Xixi nodded vigorously, and Beibei also moved his little head in a proper manner.
Qin Shu was a little scared because of Beibei's figure before, but now she thinks Beibei is worthy of being Xixi's little pet and is as cute as Xixi.
"In that case, Xiaosi, go find your eldest brother and ask him to order someone to send the white deer to the palace."
Xiaosi nodded and hurried to his eldest brother's residence.
Qin Shu breathed a sigh of relief and was playing with little Xixi when she unexpectedly heard an "uninvited guest" visiting.
"What did you say, Fang Qinghong came to visit?"
When Butler Wang came to report, Qin Shu was a little surprised.
Because Fang Qinghong and she had just met not long ago, although they were going to get married after the new year, they were actually still relatively unfamiliar.
Why did Fang Qinghong come to visit her now?
Qin Shu was a little puzzled.
But Fang Qinghong was still her current fiancé after all. Qin Shu didn't know what Fang Qinghong was doing here, but she immediately told housekeeper Wang to invite Fang Qinghong in.
"Let him go to the front hall, I'll be there right away."
Xixi heard Fang Qinghong coming and immediately held Qin Shu's hand.
[I want to go too! ]
Qin Shu nodded. Fang Qinghong was the future father of several children, so there would be no problem for Xixi to go with him.
Qin Shu was holding Xiao Xixi. As soon as she arrived at the front hall, she saw Fang Qinghong walking around worriedly.
As soon as he saw Qin Shu, he hurried over and wanted to hold Qin Shu's hand, but she subconsciously avoided him.
Fang Qinghong was a little embarrassed, but he didn't care too much. He just asked worriedly.
"I heard that Xiao Si was bullied in the palace, so I hurried to your house to see Xiao Si. How is the child? Is he not hurt?"
It turned out that he came to care about Xiao Si.
But think about it, Fang Qinghong is Qin Shu's fiancé, and after hearing that the child was in trouble, he must come to see.
But the problem is...
Qin Shu's eyes flashed with confusion, and Xiao Xixi also secretly revealed a puzzled expression.
Qin Shu and Xiao Si just came back from the palace. Even if she scolded Xiao Si, Fang Qinghong would not know what happened to Xiao Si in the palace.
And that was the palace. Not all cats and dogs could hear the news of the palace.
It's not to belittle Fang Qinghong, but it's really strange that Fang Qinghong got the news so quickly.
Even Xiao Xixi thought in her heart.
[Fang Qinghong got the news too quickly. We just came out of the palace and he came here the next moment.]
Fang Qinghong thought Qin Shu was very worried, so she comforted her.
"Master Qin, you don't have to worry. The fourth young master Qin is so outstanding. The emperor will definitely not blame him."
Qin Shu shook her head.
"Nothing happened in the palace, but how did you know that you got the news so quickly?"
Qin Shu couldn't help but be a little wary.
"Where did you get the news from?"
With Zhou Yiyang's criminal record, Qin Shu really didn't trust the so-called partner.
Fang Qinghong was also a little surprised when he heard Qin Shu's question.
"I heard it in the restaurant. Now it has spread everywhere in the restaurant."
Qin Shu was surprised when she heard it.
They just came back from the palace, and it has spread everywhere in the restaurant. How is this possible?
Unless someone did it on purpose.
Someone deliberately spread this matter from the beginning. The purpose is unknown for the time being, but it will definitely not be beneficial to their Qin family!
Qin Shu immediately became highly alert and asked.
"Is this what was said in the restaurant? What did they say? Repeat it to me quickly."
Fang Qinghong showed a puzzled look on his face, but he still did it.
"It is said in the wine shop that the fourth son of the Qin family heroically rescued the beauty in the palace, beat up the mischievous little bully of the Taifu family, and saved the palace maid who was molested. Now everyone is praising the fourth son's great achievements."
