Facing the inquiry, Shu Qian nodded slightly.

Qiu Yunxia said excitedly: What subject are you good at and who is your master? I studied under the Luo Yuan magistrate of the Imperial Medical Bureau.

Zhou Ziqing frowned slightly outside the carriage. It seemed that it was not the time for two girls to chat. He was now going to solve the problem of the Crown Princess before the emperor issued an imperial edict.

There were already congratulatory people coming to Qiu Silang's mansion in the house of the Minister of Rites, and they left again. Qiu Silang was very upset. Unless he had to receive his colleagues in the court, the others were blocked outside the door.

At this moment, the person who was drinking tea with him was Li Tong, the Minister of Rites.

Because he is in the same department and has a superior and subordinate relationship, Qiu Silang takes great care of Li Tong at will, and has no airs of a boss, and will not make any intention of making things difficult for him.

Li Tong felt deeply that his superiors were sympathetic to him, so he sincerely rewarded him and became Qiu Silang's right-hand man.

After taking a sip of the best white tea in Fujian, Li Tong put down the teacup and said to Shangshu Qiu: Sir, it is a good thing for the fifth lady to be elected as the crown princess, but this matter may contain disaster. I heard that the granddaughter of Ding'an Hou and the daughter of General Chu Wei also participated in the selection.

Although Qiu Silang is kind-hearted, he has been struggling in the officialdom for more than 20 years, so how could he not understand what Li Tong meant? Moreover, before Li Tong proposed it, he had already thought about this matter, but at that time he did not think that his daughter would stand out in the selection, and just thought that she was sending her daughter to see the fun of other people's houses. Who would have thought that her daughter had the halo of the protagonist to protect her body.

As a father, Qiu Silang is both proud and worried about the style that Qiu Yunxia showed in the selection of the Crown Princess.

This official originally thought that the daughter of the Marquis' family must be the best candidate for the Crown Princess of this dynasty, but unexpectedly, such an accident happened. Qiu Silang's expression was very subtle when he said this.

How could the Marquis and his family be willing? How could the Great General Chu be willing? How could the Young General Chu be willing? Li Tong was worried, feeling like a brother was worried about the situation facing his own sister.

The Marquis' family was all military generals, pillars of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the country's border defense safety and the people's safety and happiness. They all rely on the military capabilities of the Chu family. The emperor was afraid of them, let alone ordinary officials in the court?

The so-called civil officials suppressed military officials, but did not exist in the officialdom of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

It was really strange. Li Tong talked to himself, and was also talking to Qiu Silang that the daughter of the Marquis's mansion wanted to marry the prince. As long as the Marquis Ding'an went to ask the emperor for a request, the emperor would not agree. Why should we mobilize all troops to hold such a selection of princesses?

Qiu Silang seemed to know some rumors: the Seventeenth Lady, who was originally selected by the second general of the Marquis' Mansion, was the seventeenth Lady who was under the knee of the second general of the Marquis' Mansion. When he was about to come, the one who entered the palace was Chu Ying, the daughter of the General Chu Wei. However, the General Chu only had a son, and he had never heard of having a daughter.

As the Secretary Qiu spoke, his expression became a little ethereal, as if he was thinking about something. There seemed to be some secret that cannot be told to outsiders.

After seeing off Mr. Li, Qiu Silang made up an idea in his heart that the Crown Princess must not be his daughter.

What kind of glory and wealth are just a passing cloud. He doesn't want his daughter to marry into the royal family. In the future, he will fall into the endless competition for favor and love in the harem, and he will have no posture at all.

Shangshu Qiu asked his wife Liu, had Qiu Yunxia returned home?

The carriage sent to pick up her daughter broke down halfway, and I got the news that I wanted to pick up her daughter again.

Seeing that it was already sunset, Mr. Qiu was holding the lights, so he couldn't wait to pick them up in person. As soon as he went to the door of the mansion, he waited for the coachman to send a car, but saw a green curtain and oil-cleared carriage parked at the door of the mansion.

Qiu Yunxia got off the carriage, and the carriage left on its own.

The marks on the Marquis' Mansion on the carriage are particularly eye-catching.

Shangshu Qiu's heart was shocked. Why did the people in the Hou Mansion be unwilling to lose? He actually attacked his daughter so early?

Shangshu Qiu hurriedly met Qiu Yunxia and grabbed her up and down to look.

Dad, what's wrong with you? Don't know me? I'm Xiaowu. Qiu Yunxia flashed her big eyes.

Shangshu Qiu looked at the carriage away: Is it the people from Ding'an Marquis' Mansion who sent you back?

Dad, you are really keen eyes.

Qiu Silang said nervously: They didn’t do anything to you, right?

Qiu Yunxia was confused: Dad, why did you say this?

Seeing his daughter's innocent face, Qiu Shangshu laughed silently. No matter how arrogant the Ding'an Marquis' Mansion was, it would be impossible for him to do anything to his daughter. After all, he was a dignified Shangshu, and his daughter is now even the prospective crown princess.

Even if the Ding'an Marquis Mansion invites his daughter, at most he will threaten her daughter for a few words.

Qiu Silang was thinking about his little thoughts, and Qiu Yunxia had already pulled him into the mansion.

Dad, today is too late. Tomorrow, you will ask someone to prepare some gifts. I will go to the Marquis' Mansion to express my gratitude.

Thank you? Shangshu Qiu was surprised.

Well, Qiu Yunxia nodded, it’s all your fault for your father. If you were so late, you wouldn’t send a carriage to the palace gate to pick me up. After all, all the noble girls who were running for the election were exposed, and no one left me was left to pick me up. Fortunately, Mrs. Chu from the Marquis’s mansion asked me to take a ride.

Qiu Yunxia said and shook her head: No, right? I specially sent me back. The Marquis' Mansion is in the east of the city, and our Shangshu Mansion is in the west of the city. It is completely different. So we should thank others for their kindness and kindness. You said, right, dad?

Is this the case?

Shangshu Qiu suddenly realized that everything was because he was too concerned, but he always felt that he was not at ease and asked: What happened to the Crown Princess

Qiu Yunxia put away her smile, pouted, and asked her father: Dad, do you think everything you said to me in the morning still counts?

What? Shangshu Qiu couldn't react for a moment.

You told your daughter in the morning that your dream is not to be a princess. You just want me to live happily and happily and freely. Does this count?

Shangshu Qiu looked at his daughter's bright eyes and nodded dullly.

Qiu Yunxia immediately smiled: Dad, your dream has come true now!

Qiu Yunxia said as she cheered and ran forward, leaving Qiu Shangshu alone in a daze.

At the Marquis of Ding'an Mansion, Chu Changqin listened to Jin Shidan's report, his face was as dark as a cloud to cover the city, and he was instantly heavy. He said to himself: What's going on?

Jin Shidan shook his head: I don’t know what’s going on.

I went to ask her in person! Chu Changqin said as he grabbed the door and walked out.

Shiqi Niang also got news: Why is this happening?

She asked the maid in the pink shirt in front of her.

I don’t know why I said I was defeated and then said I was elected. The pink-shirted maid looked innocent.

The Seventeenth Lady had a stomachache for a whole day and was so upset. It was a big blow to hear the news.

She lied to me! She lied to me! Seventeenth Lady gritted her teeth.
