Chapter 350: Take Xixi back home
Fang Qinghong's carriage to pick her up soon arrived, and Qin Shu came back to her senses.
"You're here." Qin Shu said with a smile.
Fang Qinghong nodded, a warm smile on his face, and handed the prepared hairpin to Qin Shu.
"On the way here, I stopped by Sui Yuxuan and bought this hairpin for you."
Although this hairpin is a style that can be seen everywhere, Qin Shu can still see that it is made of jade and is very expensive. However, she didn't have much emotion in her heart.
In the prosperous capital, there are probably few things that can make Qin Shu have a strong desire. However, this is Fang Qinghong's intention after all. Qin Shu took off the gold hairpin on her head and replaced it with the jade hairpin given by Fang Qinghong.
"Very good, I like it very much, thank you." Qin Shu thanked sincerely.
Today's arrangement for the two was also very simple. Fang Qinghong just accompanied Qin Shu to stroll around the shops in the capital. Fang Qinghong always wanted to pay for the things Qin Shu liked, but Qin Shu was not very adaptable, so she paid for it herself. The things were carried by the servants, and Fang Qinghong became an attendant who chatted with Qin Shu.
"Speaking of which, I don't know what arrangements the head of the Qin family has in the future?" Fang Qinghong asked.
"Although the emperor has let Xiao Si and Xiao Wu go on the surface, I don't know what changes will happen in the future. After all, the emperor's mind is unpredictable."
As the future male owner of the Qin family, Qin Shu did not hide the fact that Xiao Si and Xiao Wu had returned from the palace from Fang Qinghong. There is nothing to hide about this matter.
Qin Shu thought so in her heart. After all, Xiao Si and Xiao Wu are people with special skills. If the emperor listens to someone's advice and wants to recruit them back to the palace, it will definitely cause bad things.
So Qin Shu told Xiao Si and Xiao Wu early and asked them to prepare to leave.
However, Qin Shu did not have time to tell Fang Qinghong that they would leave after the Lantern Festival. She just agreed with his judgment that the two of them could not stay in the capital for a long time.
The two were speechless again, and Fang Qinghong suddenly mentioned Xiao Xixi at this time.
"By the way, Xiao Xixi seems to be very close to His Royal Highness the Little Grandson." Fang Qinghong said.
Seeing Qin Shu looking over, Fang Qinghong hurriedly explained to her.
"I've heard some rumors, and all the court officials know that the young grandson has a very good relationship with Xixi, and also has a good relationship with the Qin family."
Qin Shu sighed. Even Fang Qinghong knew about this, so how could the emperor not know about it?
She remained silent.
Seeing that Qin Shu didn't say anything, Fang Qinghong thought about it and began to hint at it.
"The young grandson is a dragon among men, and it's naturally good to be on good terms with him. But the young grandson is the one who will inherit the throne in the future. If Xixi gets too close to him, will it be bad for the Qin family?"
Fang Qinghong's implicit meaning was that he thought the relationship between Qin Xixi and Pei Xuanyi was a little too good, and they were a little too close, which would inevitably cause the emperor to be jealous of the Qin family. Moreover, even he knows about this matter now, and the court officials will also discuss it in private.
Qin Shu knows what he means. It's just that Pei Xuanyi is indeed a good person, and he has helped the Qin family so much that Qin Shu has tacitly agreed to let him play with Xiao Xixi. Since Qin Shu has already tacitly agreed that it is normal for Xixi to go to Pei Xuanyi, she doesn't even have the idea of stopping.
Pei Xuanyi and Xixi get along well, which is a good thing.
It would be good if he can be Xixi's backer and let Xixi be healthy and safe. However, what Qin Shu worried about from beginning to end was the identity of the little grandson of the emperor.
She didn't know if it was her illusion, but she always felt that Pei Xuanyi's love for Xiao Xixi was not just as simple as his love for his sister. The two of them are childhood sweethearts, and it is inevitable that they will develop some inexplicable childhood sweetheart feelings because of the distance between them.
Pei Xuanyi's identity is not ordinary. He is the little grandson of the emperor, the future crown prince, and the successor appointed by the emperor. In this case, Pei Xuanyi will definitely not be able to be with one person for his whole life, and he will definitely marry many women from aristocratic families to maintain the stability of the imperial power. Maybe he likes her in his heart, but if he sits in that position, who can guarantee that he will keep his original intention?
Qin Shu knew that she was thinking too far, and things have not reached that point yet. But as a mother, she had to think so.
In comparison, she hoped that Xixi's future husband would not be a powerful person, but could treat her wholeheartedly and only treat her well for the rest of his life.
Qin Shu felt that little Xixi deserved to enjoy all the best things in the world. If Pei Xuanyi would have many women around him in the future, it would make Xixi upset.
It's strange to say that everyone in this world thinks that being able to marry into the royal grandson and marry into the palace is a huge favor. But Qin Shu couldn't avoid it in her heart.
Fang Qinghong also stopped talking. Qin Shu didn't say anything along the way until she was about to reach the Qin Mansion, when she suddenly ordered the carriage to turn around and go to the Royal Grandson's Mansion to pick up little Xixi.
Pei Xuanyi is not the right person. Although Pei Xuanyi has helped the Qin family a lot, Qin Shu will definitely repay the little emperor's kindness in other ways in the future.
When the two came to the emperor's mansion, Xixi was accompanying Pei Xuanyi to check the busy memorials. Xixi didn't expect her mother to come to pick her up so soon, and she was still a little reluctant.
Qin Shu's attitude towards Pei Xuanyi was very polite. Pei Xuanyi felt something was wrong, but he didn't notice what was wrong. He naturally didn't expect that Qin Shu had secretly thought about keeping little Xixi away from him.
Although little Xixi was a little reluctant, Qin Shu came to the door, so Xixi naturally couldn't stay in the emperor's mansion with peace of mind. She only had time to tell the little grandson "Don't forget what you promised me" before she was picked up by Qin Shu.
Although Xiao Xixi didn't know why her mother came to pick her up so early this time, she felt very unhappy when she saw Fang Qinghong
coming with her. Normally, her mother would not care about her contact with the little grandson, but this time she came so quickly, it must be Fang Qinghong who interfered. Although there was no direct evidence, Xiao Xixi believed in her intuition very much. She hugged her arms, pouted her lips, and snorted, which made her even more dissatisfied with Fang Qinghong.
Qin Shu just thought that she was separated from Pei Xuanyi, and felt sad. The alarm bell in her heart couldn't help but ring louder. Xiao Xixi now actually developed a dependent feeling towards Pei Xuanyi, which was not good.
It is better to intervene more and prevent Xixi from getting closer to the little grandson of the emperor. Xixi didn't know what would happen after she returned to the mansion. If she knew, she would definitely make trouble in the car to let Fang Qinghong leave.
