"Xi'er, you are still young and don't understand those conspiracies and calculations. She was sent here by you, so the drugging had nothing to do with her. She is indeed innocent, but I am only a mortal after all, and I don't know who did it on purpose and who didn't. Don't you agree?"
Duan Qingxi nodded, feeling that Duan Sijin's words made sense.
He is so outstanding that there are countless women who want to get into his bed. There are so many maids in the general's mansion. If he is not careful, they may really plot against him.
"Okay, I won't do this kind of thing next time."
But if he really falls for Chanxue and comes back to pursue her, she will be helpless!
Duan Sijin pinched her little nose and said lovingly, "So good!"
After the two sat down at the table, Duan Qingxi asked Qiao Yun to bring up snacks and tea.
After taking a sip of tea, Duan Sijin asked again, "By the way, you haven't told me yet, what's going on with that ugly girl in your yard?"
"What an ugly girl! I have a name, it's Chanxue!"
Duan Qingxi rolled her eyes. She wondered how her elder brother, with his intelligence, could have won over his sister-in-law in modern times!
"Oh, then...what's up with that Zenxue girl?"
"That Snow Girl was frightened by you and refused to stay by my side to serve me. I sent her away and naturally found another one! Since you don't like beautiful ones, I found an ugly one who works very well."
After a pause, Duan Qingxi looked at him unkindly and asked, "Why? Do you have any objections?"
Duan Sijin said, "No, you are the one who decides who your maid is. But I think that girl is a good one, but she is often bullied. Since you brought her in, please take good care of her and don't let her suffer any injustice."
Duan Qingxi widened his eyes and looked at Duan Sijin in disbelief.
Oh my god!
When Chan Xue was stunningly beautiful, Duan Sijin didn't even bother to look at her. Now that she's ugly, he's showing such concern for her. Could it be... that this big brother of hers has some special charm?!
Duan Sijin didn't notice the change in her expression, but told her what had just happened.
Duan Qingxi came back to his senses and nodded, "Okay, I'll pay attention."
But her elder brother has now begun to notice Chanxue, which is indeed a good thing.
After talking for a while, Duan Sijin remembered the main purpose of his visit to her this time.
He said, "By the way, I came here to ask you, the Queen will be holding a Hundred Flowers Banquet in the palace in a few days, do you want to go and see it?"
After thinking for a moment, he worried that Duan Qingxi didn't know the special meaning of the Hundred Flowers Banquet, so he explained, "This Hundred Flowers Banquet, to put it bluntly, is to invite those unmarried young men and women to the palace, and then the Empress will arrange marriages for them. Of course, if you find someone you like, you can also ask the Empress to arrange a marriage for you."
To put it bluntly, it is also a blind date in disguise.
The last hunting meeting ended in a hurry, but everyone had found their ideal partner, so they took advantage of this Hundred Flowers Banquet to match a few couples.
Of course, this is also the emperor's intention, and the main purpose is to balance the forces in the court.
Duan Qingxi remembered what Helian Sheng said when he came to see her last time. He wanted her to enter the palace to help check the queen's condition.
Although she hadn't agreed at the time, now that she thought about it carefully, if she could cure the Queen's illness, then the Emperor, the Queen, even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and Helian Sheng would all owe her a favor. Why not do it?!
"Then...then go. Aren't you and Dad always thinking about me getting married soon?"
Although before coming, Duan Hong asked him to try his best to persuade Duan Qingxi to agree to enter the palace to attend the Hundred Flowers Banquet.
But after Duan Qingxi really agreed, Duan Sijin felt very uncomfortable.
But he didn't say anything. After seeing her agree, he said that he would make good arrangements and asked her to prepare in the next few days.
