Chapter 354 Flowing Shadow (Six More)

"Hmph, you old bastard, you're quite insidious!" Song Liuying said lightly.

Song Sansi laughed and said: "This old slave is such a person!"

Song Liuying said: "Have you seen that Chu Li?"

"Yes, I drank wine at the same table." Song Sansi shook his head and said, "He is a powerful person, and his reputation is well-deserved!"

"Oh—?" Song Liuying said indifferently: "No matter how powerful he is, can he compare to a treacherous old bastard like you?"

"My concubine can't underestimate him." Song Sansi sighed, shook his head and said, "According to the observation of this old slave, Chu Li is arrogant, but he doesn't underestimate others. Not as good as him!"

"Really so powerful?" Song Liuying raised her slender eyebrows slightly: "So, you can't hold him down?"

"Hey..." Song Sansi laughed, shook his head and said: "You can't live by doing evil. Originally, he is a first-rank man. Once he enters the mansion, he will directly take away the old slave's seat. This is also a helpless thing, but Princess Xiao was assassinated. He gave us a chance!"

"what chance?"

"It is said that Chu Li has asked the prince to live in the courtyard next to Princess Xiao, and personally guard Princess Xiao, lest the assassins come again!" Song Sansi laughed, shaking his head and said: "Presumably he has a feeling of yearning for Princess Xiao. Understandable, he's still young after all."

"I think it's rare, it's rare to have such a heart." Song Liuying said lightly: "There are not many people who can be so loyal."

Song Sansi hurriedly said: "The old slave is also loyal to the princess!"

"You are a treacherous old man, the situation is not right, and you can run faster than me!" Song Liuying glanced at him, and snorted, "Tell me, what opportunity!"

"Since Chu Li wants to guard Concubine Xiao, naturally he can't be distracted." Song Sansi said with a smile: "He is not suitable for the position of Chief Internal Officer, is he?"

"Hmm..." Song Liuying nodded lightly, "He can't leave Concubine Xiao's courtyard, his hands and feet are bound, and he's not suitable to be the chief internal officer."

"That's it!" Song Sansi hurriedly said: "So the princess can give advice to the prince, and we should take the position of chief internal officer!"

"You old man is greedy for power and position, right?" Song Liuying said.

Song Sansi laughed and said: "The old slave is really reluctant, Wangfei, the position of the chief internal officer is in his hands, everyone in the house is respectful to us, be careful to serve us, once handed over, these guys will change immediately With such a complexion, they all ran to Princess Xiao to show their courtesy!"

"Well, it's human nature." Song Liuying lowered his head lightly: "You don't look at favoritism, you look at power, but you want to fight for this position, don't you want to make up for the shortfall?"

"Hehe..." Song Sansi smiled embarrassedly: "I can't hide everything from the princess!"

"One hundred thousand taels of silver is indeed not a small sum." Song Liuying said lightly: "I think you should make up for it. It's different now. If the prince really wants to hand over the position of chief internal officer to Chu Li, he Maybe I won't use you to stand up!"

"Alas..." Song Sansi sighed and shook his head helplessly: "The princess also knows that my kid has lost all his money. How can the family get one hundred thousand taels now, even ten thousand taels can't afford it?" ah!"

He gritted his teeth and snorted, "So no matter what, Chu Li can't be allowed to take the seat of the chief internal officer!"

Song Liuying said lightly: "It seems that it's not for me, but for you!"

"Wangfei's words have wronged this old slave!" Song Sansi hurriedly said: "Wangfei doesn't think about herself, but also thinks about Miss. This old slave watched Miss grow up, and she is closer to my prodigal son. I don't want Miss to suffer!... If you don't occupy the position of Concubine, and lose the position of Chief Internal Officer, how can you not give Miss the cold eyes of those shallow-skinned people in the mansion? Don't neglect Miss?!"

Song Liuying frowned and thought about it, then nodded slightly.

Song Sansi's words hit her mind, she had to think for Qing'er if she didn't think about herself.

"Well, I'm going to mention something to the lord, but the lord hates women interfering in these things the most." Song Liuying shook his head and said, "It's still the same sentence, make up for the shortfall quickly, lest Chu Li catch it!"

"The old slave will think of a way." Song Sansi nodded hurriedly.

Song Liuying waved his hand: "Go, I'm going to visit there today, and meet Chu Li for a while."

"Do you want the old slave together?"

"What are you going to do!" Song Liuying waved his hand and said, "Buy yourself, don't bother me!"

"Yes, the old slave is leaving." Song Sansi bowed with fists in his hands, and retreated.

He stopped at the gate of Yaoguang Courtyard with a gloomy face.

Cutting off someone's money is like killing one's parents. The boy surnamed Chu blocked his way of making money, so he had to find a way to get rid of him completely!

——

Chu Li was sitting at the stone table in Xiao Shi's courtyard, holding a volume of books, and beside him was a plum tree.

The palace has a rich collection of books, and he is now a first-rank guard. Although he has no position yet, the guards of the palace have already started to fawn on him. After saying a word, the guard in charge of the library immediately sent a pile of books.

Xiao Shi was recuperating on the couch, while Yang Xu and Xue Ling waited on her and chatted with her.

Chu Li sat alone in front of the stone table, flipping through it with relish.

This book records spirit beasts, which is considered an anecdote. He found the part about spirit cranes, but felt that it was not all nonsense.

Spirit cranes are indeed as written in the book, one nest lays two eggs, and the male and female cranes take turns guarding the nest, never leaving. Once other spirit beasts approach, they will not be polite.

As for the others, Linghe is afraid of indifference, and has no hostility towards everything. It likes to eat grass roots, mostly the roots of exotic flowers and plants. Its speed exceeds the limit of the naked eye, and human eyes cannot catch up with their figures.

At this moment, there was a message from a maid outside: "Concubine Song is here."

Chu Li got up and put down the scroll, and bowed to Song Liuying, who was curling up, and the graceful girl beside Song Liuying: "Chu Li has seen the princess."

"Director Chu, you don't have to be polite." Song Liuying dressed up in full makeup, luxurious and graceful, with a well-mannered demeanor, carefully sizing up Chu Li.

The girl beside her is graceful and exquisite, with a hibiscus face and bright eyes, and there is a trace of indifference and indifference between her gazes.

Chu Li tasted it carefully. This girl should be Princess Song's daughter Leng Qing. She seemed to be impatient with everything, not indifferent like Xiao Qi, but disgusted with everything.

"I don't know how hurt Princess Xiao is?" Song Liuying said indifferently.

Chu Li looked heavy, shook his head and said: "The assassin is really arrogant and vicious. He stabbed the young lady's heart with a sword. If it wasn't for Qi Yuan Dan to save her life, the young lady would be gone! ... The imperial doctor has already come and said that there is nothing to do, so he can only take care of the young lady slowly. , It is estimated that it will take a year and a half to recover."

"So heavy?!" Song Liuying was surprised.

She was really surprised. She didn't expect Xiao Shi's injury to be so troublesome. It would take a year and a half to take care of her. She thought she would recover in a few days after taking the Qi Yuan Pill.

Not only was she unhappy, but she felt chills in her heart.

Concubine Xiao has Qi Yuan Pill, but she doesn't have one. If the assassin's sword stabbed her, then she would be dead right now, leaving Qing'er alone in this world!

Chu Li shook his head and sighed, "Miss is lucky to be able to save her life!"

"Boss Chu, Miss Song Wangfei is invited to come in and talk." Yang Xu came out and said softly.

Chu Li stretched out his hand to ask Song Liuying.

Song Liuying nodded lightly, and brought her daughter into the room.
