Qin Zhao looked up at him, seeming a little surprised. "Why, Your Majesty, do you still want me to continue working for you despite my illness? Isn't giving you Xiao Yue enough?"
Since Qi Xuan was not the one who poisoned the emperor, Xiao Yue could assist him with peace of mind. Although the situation in the capital was uncertain, since Xiao Yue was able to send the little emperor to see Qin Zhao without anyone noticing, it meant that the overall situation was not far from stabilization.
"Xiao Qing... is so fierce." Qi Xuan seemed a little aggrieved when he mentioned this. "I'm a little afraid of him."
Qin Zhao: "..."
Qin Zhao smiled: "Aren't you afraid of me?"
"..." Qi Xuan looked like he was about to cry, "Afraid."
Qin Zhao consoled him, "The Xiao family has been loyal and righteous for generations. Xiao Yue may look a bit ferocious, but he's a good person. Your Majesty can trust him."
Qi Xuan said "Oh" in a depressed tone.
"By the way, Lord Deng told me about your condition," Qi Xuan said. "I've already sent people everywhere to find famous doctors who will definitely be able to make you better."
Qin Zhao nodded: "Okay."
Qi Xuan stopped talking again.
He stood beside Qin Zhao as if he was being punished, motionless, his face full of hesitation to speak.
Qin Zhao pressed his eyebrows and said, "When will you change your hesitant look? No wonder Xiao Yue is so mean to you."
"I...I'll change it when I get back, I'll definitely change it." Qi Xuan promised, and then quietly looked at Qin Zhao's expression. Seeing that the anger on the latter's face had disappeared, he tentatively said: "Rong...ah, Mr. Qin...I heard that you came to the capital under the pretext of taking the imperial examination?"
Qin Zhao glanced at him and understood what he wanted to say.
"Um..." Qi Xuan said slowly, "I have already chosen the chief examiner for next year's spring examination. The entire Imperial Examination Hall has also been replaced with a new batch of people. No one recognizes you. If you are still willing..."
"Let's discuss this later." Qin Zhao interrupted.
He had taken the imperial examination in order to find a pretext to enter the capital. Now that his plan had been completed, it no longer mattered whether he took part in the examination or not.
Qi Xuan's words were all blocked, and before he could persuade him again, there was a knock on the door.
A crisp baby voice rang out from outside the door: "Dad, the sweet potatoes are ready!"
Qi Xuan watched Qin Zhao, who had originally had a serious expression, relax his brows and stood up to open the door. When he opened the door, the little brat was still knocking on the door, and fell into his arms.
"Be careful." Qin Zhao held the baby in his arms, raised his head, and saw Jing Li still sitting by the stove, but his eyes were secretly paying attention in this direction.
Noticing that he was looking over, Jing Li quickly looked away and concentrated on taking the sweet potatoes out of the earthen stove.
Qin Zhao understood.
The young husband is worried about him.
Qin Zhao picked up the little fish cub, turned around and ordered him to leave: "It just so happens that I have finished chatting with His Majesty. Ah Qi, please show him up."
Qi Xuan: “?”
Are you done talking?
Qin Zhao ignored him and walked towards the stove with the baby in his arms.
The sweet potatoes were completely roasted, and the whole yard was filled with the sweet aroma of sweet potatoes. Qi Xuan couldn't help swallowing, feeling a little hungry.
Ah Qi paid no attention to the emperor's thoughts and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, I will escort you out."
“…”
Qi Xuan was silent for a moment, then resignedly followed Ah Qi out of the yard.
Before leaving, I saw Qin Zhao personally pick out a big round sweet potato from the winnowing basket, break it into two halves, let it cool down, and feed one half to the son and the other half to her husband.
Not to mention how considerate and gentle she is.
Qi Xuan looked away angrily.
It’s just roasted sweet potatoes, what’s so great about that?
I'll go back and buy it myself!
