Chapter 248 October Shen Tu Su
Those who were sent to invite people were not ordinary servants. After listening to Su Qianqian's disgusting words and with that scene in their minds, they quietly took a step back, bowed, and went back to report.
Only Zhou Jinxi frowned, "Madam Wuning, Master Su is so hungover and uncomfortable, how can no one serve him? Are you just going to leave him alone like this?"
"Miss Zhou, my cousin has a quirk that you may not know. After he gets drunk, he cannot see strangers for three days. He will vomit if he sees anyone. There is food and tea in the car, and even a clean bucket is prepared for him. Miss Zhou, do you want to get in the car and check it yourself?"
Su Qianqian showed her eyes from under the hood, raised her eyebrows and asked Zhou Jinxi with a smile.
The corners of Zhou Jinxi's lips twitched, but he took a step back and said goodbye.
Su Qianqian glanced at Tao Huan with a broken arm, turned around and left without saying a word.
"Madam Wuning Marquis, please stay." Tao Huan spoke with a pure Daliang Xijing accent. Before, he spoke mostly with the Daliang accent.
Su Qianqian turned around and looked at Tao Huan, who was dressed in a black robe. "Master Tao, what can I do for you?"
“I dare not, but Prince Ping is very concerned about Master Su, and I should share his worries.
Young Master Su is now becoming famous and attracting everyone's attention. It is not known whether it is a blessing or a curse, so he should be more vigilant.
The court of Da Qi is full of talented civil servants, and the infighting should be no less severe than that of Daliang. Those 30,000 soldiers at the foot of Mount Xumi are also being slandered by many people. Can anyone ask about the truth and speak a fair word for them? ”
Su Qianqian's eyebrows jumped and she immediately looked around. Apart from the maid who followed her, there was no one else around. The other servants and guards were all standing far away.
"If Tao Changshi said this, he would probably be beheaded if he said this." Su Qianqian said calmly, observing Tao Huan expressionlessly.
"I am not from Da Qi, but I am not from Daliang either. I am just a wandering soul. Madam Wuning Hou, please take this as a joke. I am taking my leave." Tao Huan put his left hand on his right shoulder, performed the Daliang salute, and turned to leave.
"Master Tao, Young Master Su really likes to listen to the stories of people from different places. After returning to Xijing, you can find a quiet place and have a chat. I believe it will be very interesting."
Su Qianqian said behind Tao Huan.
"Be careful with Tusu in October... Madam Wuning, do you still remember this prophecy? That Hu girl is really capable, haha..."
Tao Huan said this without looking back and left Prince Xiangping's carriage.
Su Qianqian stood there for a moment, until Qin Hanzhang strode towards her, then she came to her senses and followed him back to the carriage.
"Don't be greedy for rich food and be careful about drinking Su in October. I remember this is what the Hu woman said when she was predicting the fortune for Prince Ping." Su Qianqian recalled the situation at that time. Prince Ping also said that he was a heavy drinker.
"What Chief Secretary Tao meant by this is that Prince Ping is going to do something bad to you?" Qin Hanzhang's eyebrows became fierce.
"If that's the case, why did Tao Changshi betray me and tell me? He and I have no friendship, and I'm just a female member of the Wuning Marquis's family. What reason would he have to kill me? Unless he knew that I was..."
Su Qianqian guessed, and a light bulb suddenly lit up her head: "Tao Huan knows my identity, but Prince Ping doesn't know it yet! But Prince Ping might want to kill Su Qian? Why? Why did Tao Huan remind me?"
“I have been looking into Tao Huan’s identity, but I have not yet found any Daliang soldier with this name. It is obviously an alias.
Since he has made this move today, he must be trying to convey something to the Wuning Marquisate. It is not clear whether he is an enemy or a friend, so we should wait and see. But when you appear as Su Qian, you must be careful of Prince Ping. ”
Qin Hanzhang handed Su Qianqian a cup of tea and said with a frown.
"I will." Su Qianqian nodded in agreement.
[You have a lot of bad luck in love. Do you know why Zhou Jinxi is looking for Mr. Su? I was already preparing to return to Xijing to discuss the marriage, and I came here specifically to make it clear.
She discussed it with the maid and the nanny for a long time, hiding it from the Marquis of Jinyang and his wife, and decided to give her parents and brothers a surprise when the matter was done. She never thought it would be a shock, hahahaha...】
The system couldn't help but eat the melon again.
【ah? Is it so urgent? Can't you wait until I die? 】Su Qianqian didn’t expect that Zhou Jinxi was really impatient.
[It's not just her. You, the new favorite in the imperial court, have attracted many people with daughters. They are afraid that others will take advantage of them when they return to the capital, so they are thinking about finding a son-in-law after leaving the hunting ground. I'm afraid they won't have a peaceful journey. 】
The system ate Su Qianqian's melon in a sarcastic way.
[It's okay. I've sent them away these days. Starting tomorrow, we'll increase the guards. No one will be seen no matter who they are. We'll think of a solution when we get back to Xijing. 】
Su Qianqian was also having a headache. She didn't expect that her fake product would be in such good market.
It took three days to return to Xijing. Su Qianqian was exhausted from blocking visitors for "Su Qian" along the way. She finally made it back home and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
These days, only He was in charge of the affairs in the mansion. Anyone who needed to make a decision had to go into the yard. He always kept her oath and refused to leave the yard.
Qin Mian and Qin Li practiced martial arts every day, and after not seeing each other for a few days, they felt that they were stronger. Qin Hanjue couldn't go with them because of his schoolwork, so when he returned home from the Imperial College, he pulled Qin Yuzhuo to ask about hunting. When he heard that Su Qianqian and Qin Hanzhang were in danger, he was so scared that his face turned pale.
After a day's rest and dealing with the affairs of the mansion, Su Qianqian went to the Ministry of Personnel to get the imperial edict and certificate of appointment, and took up his post in the Ministry of Justice. Although he was only a sixth-rank assistant minister, he was still an official, and the runners and police chiefs had to call him "Sir".
Su Qianqian handed the imperial edict to Lord Yin, and Lord Yin dismissed the people around him and reminded Su Qianqian:
"Now you are an official, and you must immediately go to the Dali Temple to assist in handling that important case. You must be careful and prudent. If there are any mistakes, put them on me. I will take care of everything for you."
Thinking that it was me who dragged Su Qianqian into this, he felt a little guilty, but since things had come to this point, the worst that could happen was that he would take the responsibility on himself in the end.
"Don't worry, uncle. My niece knows her limits. After the case is fully investigated, she will find a way to get out of this situation."
Su Qianqian was not too anxious because a lowly official did not even have the qualifications to attend court and seldom showed up in front of the emperor, so the danger was much smaller. As for palace banquets, "Su Qian" might only have the chance to attend one in his life.
He came to the Dali Temple wearing new official robes, but ran into Lu Jun, the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple, head-on.
"Newly appointed Deputy Director of the Ministry of Justice, why are you not assisting Lord Yin in handling cases in the Ministry of Justice? Why are you coming to the Dali Temple?" Lu Jun looked thinner than before, and his eyes when he looked at Su Qianqian were even more gloomy.
"Lord Lu! I am here to assist Lord Zhuang in trying the case under the order of His Majesty. It is really hard to disobey the imperial order. Otherwise, Lord Lu, please ask for an order to relieve me of this task? I also feel that the Dali Temple has to borrow people from the Ministry of Justice to try the case, as if there is no one left in the Dali Temple!"
Su Qianqian said with a flattering look on her face.
