Silent Lover 2 (Tanhua) - Chap 20
Chapter 20 You will follow me from now on
Jun Qiyu couldn’t help being a little proud of being flattered.
Hu Nuer used to be the prince of Yili, but now he is his official minister, giving him a kind of arrogance, in order to show his strength and status to Pei Xingxu.
“Brother Pei, I don’t know, this slave of mine is not only good-looking, but also very good at dancing in your Western Regions.” Jun Qiyu flaunted, “Hu Nuer, go up and give them a performance.”
Hu Nuer’s expression changed, he was reluctant.
“Grandpa… Hu Nuer is one of the master’s people, how can he dance for others?”
Jun Qiyu couldn’t tolerate his resistance, and shouted: “I let you jump as soon as I tell you!”
Song Liqing was also taken aback, this time when all nations came to congratulate, Jun Qiyu’s move was too violent.
He secretly went to see Emperor Xuan’s expression, although Emperor Xuan did not express anything in public, Jun Qiyu’s frivolous behavior would definitely annoy him.
In the end, both of them were inevitably reprimanded.
Song Liqing pulled Jun Qiyu’s sleeve and said in a low voice, “Qiyu, that’s not right, you are a role model for the whole country…”
Jun Qiyu waved him away, drinking and laughing to herself.
“You won’t let Hu Nuer go, so why don’t you go?”
Song Liqing withdrew her hand embarrassingly.
Jun Qiyu has no scruples and doesn’t care about his affection at all.
Although Hu Nuer was unwilling, she performed flawlessly on the stage, dancing softly and gracefully, with her own unique style, which attracted a lot of applause.
Pei Xingxu was also watching with a smile on the other side.
Song Liqing took a deep breath, they probably seldom applauded and laughed more, but Jun Qiyu didn’t take it seriously, and was foolishly flattered by everyone.
“Hu Nuer, you have given me face, and I can grant you a wish when you go back…”
“Thank you for your gift.”
Hu Nuer leaned gently on Jun Qiyu’s body.
After the dance music ended, Emperor Xuan squinted his eyes, his eyes were like an abyss, and he didn’t mention this matter again.
“Prince Loulan.”
Pei Xingxu stood up respectfully and folded his hands to listen.
Emperor Xuan said: “You and Qiyu are about the same age, so you must have the same interests, and we can have more contacts in the future.”
“Yes, His Highness the Crown Prince and I hit it off as old friends. I have always admired His Highness’s literary and martial arts. Although I am a prince, Loulan is only a small place compared to Dajing Kingdom. It is really my three lives to be able to make friends with His Highness the Crown Prince. Fortunately.”
Pei Xingxu’s words were respectful and decent, and Emperor Xuan admired him and let him take a seat.
Jun Qiyu disdains his flattery.
“Brother Pei, the world was created by my own hands and fists, and it’s useless to fight with anyone. If I were you, I would definitely fight hard. The countries of the Western Regions are just stuff in my pocket.”
Pei Xingxu’s smile didn’t fade.
On the contrary, the envoys of various countries and the courtiers of Dajing became nervous together, and even the calm Emperor Xuan tapped his fingers on the table, obviously dissatisfied.
Prince Loulan had already expressed his heart of surrender, but Jun Qiyu’s words stiffened the relationship between Dajing and the other countries, and the atmosphere in the hall froze.
Song Liqing had no choice but to bite the bullet, and said loudly: “Your Highness means that military power is only the cornerstone of a country, but in fact, it is the long-cherished wish of Jing Guo and you all to live and work in peace and contentment.”
Song Liqing had just recovered from the cold, and his voice was not loud, but his clear voice was refreshing.
“Hey, although our Western Regions are big, we have few things. There are Gobi deserts everywhere. It can’t compare to Jingguo’s heaven and earth. Our Loulan is even more barren. According to His Royal Highness, how should we deal with ourselves? ?”
Pei Xingxu was talking to Jun Qiyu, but his eyes were always on Song Liqing.
Song Liqing glanced at Jun Qiyu, and then said: “It is natural to learn from each other’s strengths… Your Highness told me privately that Loulan is located at the junction of Dajing and other countries. If there is a large trade route, there will be benefits. Jade spices for food Medicine can also solve the fundamentals of the common people, and it will surely prosper and prosper without limit.”
Pei Xingxu’s eyes lit up, and he looked at Song Liqing even more intensely.
Song Liqing’s few words not only showed that Jingguo would not fight any more, but also hit Loulan’s way of survival.
“Thank you for your guidance, Your Highness. To tell you the truth, Pei Xingxu’s visit to Jingguo this time is mainly to shoulder the important task of opening up business. With His Highness’s words, the stone in my heart has also fallen.”
Emperor Xuan, who was not showing any signs of emotion or anger, also laughed at this time.
“Haha…haha! Well, Li Qing, Song Aiqing has raised a good son, and I chose you to assist the crown prince, so I did not misunderstand the person.”
This is already a compliment from Emperor Xuan without hesitation, and the title is also very affectionate.
Pei Xingxu muttered the name silently.
“Song… Song Liqing, I made a note.”
Song Liqing wiped the fine sweat from his forehead, he might offend Jun Qiyu again by acting as a substitute.
Sure enough, Jun Qiyu’s face was ashen, and she had no high interest just now.
“Aren’t you sick? Why isn’t it enough for you to show off in the Qilin mansion? You don’t need to be beaked when you speak, so go back to the Qilin mansion.”
Jun Qiyu issued an expulsion order, and Song Liqing didn’t want to stay here to be neglected, so he got up.
“Your Highness, it’s time for me to take my medicine…”
“get out.”
Jun Qiyu flicked his sleeves, as if chasing away flies.
After Song Liqing saluted, he took his leave.
Pei Xingxu watched Song Liqing leave with his neck held high, feeling anxious, he also found a reason to go to the toilet and left the table.
After leaving the Hall of Supreme Harmony, Song Liqing walked to a remote place, wanting to breathe.
“Song Liqing!”
Someone called him, Song Liqing recognized the voice, and walked forward without looking back, but Pei Xingxu caught up with him a few steps and stopped him.
“Your name is Song Liqing, right?” Pei Xingxu looked very happy.
Song Liqing didn’t speak, as if there was no such person around him.
Pei Xingxu was not annoyed, he chased him and said, “Have you gone to see the doctor?…It’s blood exhaustion, right?”
Song Liqing’s footsteps faltered.
“how do you know?”
“Of course I know, you see.”
Song Liqing didn’t know why, but Pei Xingxu jumped up, broke a plum tree branch on the palace wall, and then scratched his wrist forcefully.
Afterwards, blood was slowly oozing out from the broken skin.
“Because I also suffer from blood exhaustion.” Pei Xingxu raised his hands and said to him with a smile, “It’s been two years.”
Song Liqing was startled, and didn’t know what to say for a while.
“But… But isn’t blood exhaustion a terminal disease that cannot be cured? How can you live until now?” Song Liqing felt that the words were not very pleasant, so he changed his words, “I mean…”
“It’s okay.” Pei Xingxu said optimistically, “I haven’t recovered, but my father and king helped me go to the poor and fall to the underworld, and finally found a thing called blood cistanche in the desert, so I was able to continue my life.”
Song Liqing seemed to have ignited some dim hopes.
“Blood cistanche…is there such a panacea in the world?”
“No more.” Pei Xingxu said disappointedly, “Our country is in the desert, and we only found this one. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have to look through your Jingguo’s medical books, just to find a way to save my life.”
It turned out that he was really looking at medical books at the Tai Hospital that day.
Thinking of what happened that day, Song Liqing became annoyed.
“What are you pestering me for telling me these things? Go to Qiyu again to file a complaint and punish me for cheating?”
“Complaint? God pity you, I have never surpassed Jun Qiyu in your complaint.”
Pei Xingxu grabbed his shoulder and looked serious.
“I came to you because I wanted to say… you will follow me from now on?”
