Chapter 2694 is about you
As soon as I left the imperial concubine's room, I felt a cold wind blowing from outside.
However, Xie Jiaojiao had long been accustomed to such weather. Not only did she not feel cold, she even felt that the cold wind blowing on her face was particularly comfortable. She walked forward with a smile. As soon as she walked onto a small path, she saw a familiar figure standing outside the moon gate in front of her.
It was none other than Li Bushang.
He obviously knew that Xie Jiaojiao was coming to pay a visit to the imperial concubine. When he saw Xie Jiaojiao coming out with a happy face, his expression was as cold as usual.
Even a little gloomy.
As soon as she saw him, Xie Jiaojiao immediately walked up to him with a smile: "You're here."
“…”
"You knew I was going to see the Imperial Concubine, so you came here to wait for me?"
“…”
"Do you want to know what I said to the Imperial Concubine?"
Li Bushan frowned and asked, "What did you tell her?"
Xie Jiaojiao didn't speak immediately. Instead, she put her hands behind her back and walked towards him step by step. She looked up at him left and right for a long time, then said, "Do you still remember what you like to say to me the most?"
“……?”
Li Bushang frowned slightly.
This is obvious.
Ever since the two met, the sentence he said to Xie Jiaojiao the most was - It has nothing to do with you.
Is Xie Jiaojiao going to say the same thing to him now?
He was about to turn around and leave with a gloomy face, but he saw Xie Jiaojiao saying with a smile: "But what I want to say is exactly the opposite of what you said to me."
“……?”
Li Bushang frowned again and turned around to look at her.
"What did you say?"
Xie Jiaojiao smiled and said, "It has something to do with you."
“…”
"I just went to see the Imperial Concubine, and what I said was related to you."
After she finished speaking, she smiled and said, "Now, are you satisfied?"
“…”
Li Bushang remained silent. His face held neither a satisfied smile nor a sullen expression, a coldness so chilling it chilled people to the bone. He glanced at Xie Jiaojiao again, said nothing, and turned to leave.
"Why?"
I thought he had something else to say, but unexpectedly, he turned around and was about to leave. Xie Jiaojiao became anxious and immediately wanted to go up and stop him.
But at this moment, another person walked in from outside the moon gate.
It was Song Zhiwen.
Apart from Murong Qiu Ming and Xue Huai En who were imprisoned, and Xie Jiao Jiao who had just come to pay a visit to the imperial concubine alone, he was the only one among the people sent by Bailong City this time who could formally negotiate with the emperor. So the two of them had a long talk behind closed doors in the study, and he only came out just now.
After he came out, the emperor had someone prepare a place for him to live. However, when he heard that Xie Jiaojiao came to visit the imperial concubine alone, he wanted to come and wait for her.
But unexpectedly, I saw the two of them.
As soon as Xie Jiaojiao saw him, she immediately said, "Brother Zhiwen, have you finished discussing the matter with His Majesty the Emperor?"
Song Zhiwen nodded and looked at Li Bushang again.
Then he said, "His Majesty the Emperor said that he has sent people to Bailong City, and everything there will be done according to our agreement."
As he said that, he walked in front of Li Bushang.
"From now on, we are colleagues."
Li Bushang glanced at him.
In fact, with his keen sense, he also understood that the Song family agreed to the plan of surrendering the city. In addition to their own business, judging from the quality of Song Zhiwen, he knew that he should be planning to develop a career in politics. This result was not surprising.
So, Li Bushang nodded lightly.
After hearing this, Xie Jiaojiao also said, "Congratulations, Brother Zhiwen."
Song Zhiwen smiled gently and said, "Thank you."
Xie Jiaojiao asked again: "Brother Zhiwen came to see me, is there anything else?"
Song Zhiwen hesitated for a moment before softly saying, "Just now, His Majesty the Emperor has arranged accommodation for us. It's over there in the west wing. I thought, since we came here together, we should go there together."
"But I—"
Just as Xie Jiaojiao was about to say something, a voice came from behind her.
"Thank you, Miss."
Li Bushang felt that the voice sounded familiar, so he quickly looked up and saw Tingfu walking towards him.
He subconsciously looked behind Tingfu, but he was walking alone and there was no one behind him.
Li Bushang's eyes dimmed slightly.
But Tingfu didn't notice this. He just saw Li Bushang and Young Master Song Zhiwen, who had just had a good conversation with His Majesty the Emperor, were both here. The two of them were talking about something with Miss Xie, so they came forward and saluted.
Li Bushang asked, "Does the Imperial Concubine have any instructions?"
Tingfu smiled and said, "It's not really an order. It was the Imperial Concubine who specifically asked us to arrange accommodation for Miss Xie. She has already sent someone to pack it up. Please come over, Miss Xie."
"oh?"
Xie Jiaojiao turned to look at him: "Where does the Imperial Concubine want me to live?"
Tingfu smiled and said, "It's in the east wing. It's the room opposite the commander."
“…”
When Xie Jiaojiao heard this, her eyes lit up.
Li Bushang's eyes became darker than before.
But he didn't say much. Instead, Song Zhiwen frowned slightly and said, "Hasn't His Majesty the Emperor already placed all of us from Bailong City in the west wing?"
Tingfu smiled and said, "Yes, but Miss Xie's matter is handled by the Imperial Concubine."
“…”
Song Zhiwen didn't know what to say for a moment.
Xie Jiaojiao smiled and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Tingfu smiled and said, "It's just that time is short and the queen didn't know Miss Xie was coming, so many things can only be put away temporarily. If I have wronged Miss Xie, I hope you don't mind."
"How could that be?"
"Then, let's take Miss Xie over to take a look."
"That's not necessary,"
Xie Jiaojiao glanced at Li Bushang out of the corner of her eye and said with a smile, "Didn't you just say that my room is across from the Commander's? I don't think Lord Li has much to do, so why don't I go with him? You can go back and report to the Imperial Concubine. Just tell her that I'm very satisfied."
Tingfu glanced at them and said with a smile, "Then I'll trouble you, Lord Li."
After saying that, he bowed to them and turned to leave.
As soon as he left, Xie Jiaojiao turned around and said to Li Bushang, "Then, please take me there, Master Li."
Li Bushang glanced at her coldly, but said nothing. He turned and walked towards the east wing. Xie Jiaojiao immediately followed with a smile on her face. After taking two steps, she turned back and waved to Song Zhiwen, saying, "Brother Zhiwen, you can go to the west wing by yourself."
After saying that, he walked away.
Song Zhiwen stood in the distance, watching the backs of the two people disappear into the depths of the Moon Gate in front of him. The expression on his face was heavy and gloomy. After a long time, he sighed silently, turned around and left.
