24. This feeling is very bad (2)
The consequences are serious, that's for sure.
He quickly glanced into the room with his peripheral vision, and saw a scribe on the right who looked very familiar. He had a harmless smile, but it was actually a hidden secret. After thinking about it, he remembered that he was Qi Daxue whom he had seen in the garden before.
Shi Qi Minzhong.
Opposite Qi Minzhong was a middle-aged man with a face as sharp as a knife. Xiang Xue couldn't help but wrinkle his small nose. The evil smell was so strong, it wasn't the ordinary smell of blood, it was the baptism of the battlefield.
As for the other gray-bearded old men, they look amiable, but are actually reserved and sharp, and they are not kind-hearted characters either.
The situation seems to be a little bad. His little hands unconsciously grabbed Ximen Xuan's collar, and he felt like crying without tears for the first time after his rebirth. I don't know whether I should say that my life is too good or too bad. With the prince,
There are generals, censors, and a group of old guys who can't figure out the details, but are definitely not simple. Isn't the level of this secret society a bit high...[
Ximen Xuan felt his clothes tighten. He lowered his head and saw the slightly trembling shoulders of the little baby in his arms. He was so pitiful. He had long seen that Xiang Xue was pretending to be aggrieved out of fear, but the anger he felt in his belly was also gone.
Most of the time, he gently patted his daughter's thin back.
He felt a little guilty, but it was still not enough to calm his anger.
"Your Majesty, please calm down. The third lady must have been playful, so she broke in."
Qi Zhongmin, who had been standing next to him, suddenly spoke up, his beard curled up and down very kindly. The "Smiling Tiger" refers to him. He didn't expect that he would actually take care of King Jingxi's housework. Even Ximen Xuan was surprised.
He raised his eyebrows.
"The official fell in love with the young lady as soon as he saw her. It was God's will and fate."
There was a small pause on the word "God's will", but like a signal, something flashed through Ximenxuan's eyes, and his expression immediately softened.
"Yes, it seems that we, a group of people, always have no fun chatting. It is fate to meet this little girl."
"Haha, Mr. Zhong, you are right."
They are all old foxes in the officialdom, and they are very good at observing people's emotions. Although the reason is unknown, as long as the anger of King Jingxi is not there, it is enough.
He half-raised his head in confusion, glanced at his father who looked angry and wanted to laugh, and then his courage, which was hanging in the air, fell back to its original position.
The little mouth curved, revealing two cute and delicate tiger teeth, and said coquettishly: "Dad, Xiang Xue didn't mean it, don't be angry."
"You, if you continue to be so naughty, something will happen sooner or later." After patting the back of Yaonv's head, Ximenxuan looked helpless: "Why don't you go see the elders soon."
Xiang Xue climbed down from his father's lap in a hurry and bowed to everyone pointed out. The names of those people blasted in his ears one after another, and the Dongling historical materials he had seen passed through his mind like a slideshow.
The feeling that certain facts were about to be revealed became clearer and clearer, and the fear deepened little by little. It was all due to my extraordinary self-control, and the mischievous smile on my little face remained. My voice did not tremble, and my hands did not shake.
"Xiang Xue has met Uncle Qi." The imperial censor, a first-rank official, is in charge of all administrative activities of the officials, Qi Zhongmin.
"Xiang Xue has met Grandpa Zhong." Zhong Cheng is the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, a first-rank official who controls the personnel deployment of the imperial court.

"Xiang Xue has seen..."
