In front of the Beihua Gate, a faint smile flickered across Liu Xuan's gentle face as he looked at the princess royal who wore a phoenix robe and wore a cold expression. "Princess royal, it's rare that you're willing to give me face. Of course, I'll do as you say."
Saying this, Liu Xuan moved to the side. "Princess royal, please!"
"Okay."
Su Wan coldly responded. She flicked her sleeves and leisurely walked in front. When the two people walked out of the palace gates, the officials behind them finally dared to discuss in low voices.
"Cousin."
At this time, Chi Xueyuan wearing a blue official robe involuntarily walked to Feng Wuchen's side. "Princess royal, are you planning on going to Prime Minister Liu's residence to ask for him?"
Feng Wuchen sneered hearing Chi Xueyuan's words. "Do you really think princess royal is a fool?"
"Heh."
Chi Xueyuan lifted her brows arrogantly. "She's a woman. If she's blinded by love, wouldn't she be a fool? Princess royal looks like a smart person but she was still tricked by Yue Qing! "
Yue Qing used to be someone from the princess royal residence. He was also the person she loved. Who didn't know this?
Actually, the moment Yue Qing entered the palace, Her Majesty knew his motive.
In terms of intelligence, princess royal really wasn't Her Majesty's match.
Chi Xueyuan's gaze flickered and she exclaimed heroically, "Cousin, Her Majesty is the true talent to rule the country. I know that you're unhappy with Her Majesty because of second cousin's death but … I hope you can think of the big picture!"
Big picture …
Feng Wuchen revealed a rare gentle smile. "Xueyuan, I know what I should do. I'm going to the military field to train. What about you? Are you going back to the prime minister residence or the military office? "
"I'm going back to the prime minister residence. I still have a lot of documents to deal with."
Chi Xueyuan smiled at Feng Wuchen before quickly walking out of the palace.
Feng Wuchen's gaze flickered as he watched the heroic figure walking away.
She always placed Luanfeng Country's court affairs first and never cared about relationships. This was Luanfeng Country's iron-blooded female prime minister, Chi Xueyuan.
…
Capital, Prime Minister Liu's residence.
Su Wan's carriage slowly stopped in front of the Liu Residence. Bi Lou immediately jumped off the horse and lifted the curtains of the carriage.
When the guards at the entrance of the Prime Minister's residence saw Su Wan's carriage, they all respectfully knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
"Princess Royal Jin 'an!"
Su Wan slowly got down from the carriage and looked at the tall Liu fu in front of her. She couldn't help but slightly smile: "Prime Minister Liu, bengong remembers that when you were young, you said that you wanted to build your own residence when you grew up. I didn't think that everything would come true today. Not only do you have your own residence, you're also a first-class official in the imperial court.
Liu Xuan's expression froze hearing her words. Then he smiled faintly and said, "Princess Royal, you still remember? That's just an ignorant child spouting nonsense! "
The Liu Family was a famous family in Jingdu. Liu Xuan and Liu Luo had been hanging out with a group of nobles since they were young. Back then, Liu Xuan, who couldn't practice martial arts, didn't have much of a presence. However, he had been very ambitious since he was young. This could be seen from the fact that he had been secretly studying the art of war and formations.
Ever since he was young, he had been very ambitious. But now, Liu Xuan had learned how to perfectly hide his ambitions and aspirations.
As for Su Wan's words just now, it was just a subtle probe.
Under the guidance of the butler, the two of them arrived at the attic of the Liu residence. This was Liu Xuan's private resting place and the only place that was absolutely safe in the Liu residence. As for the other places, such as the backyard, the garden, and the study, they all had traps and matrixes. Normal people wouldn't be able to enter easily. Even if they were lucky enough to enter, they wouldn't be able to get out.
That's right. It was that powerful.
Therefore, the Liu Residence was more troublesome than the imperial city. With these layers of mechanisms, Liu Xuan could peacefully carry out his plan to overthrow the imperial court in his own home.
"Tea before the rain. Princess Royal, please enjoy!"
Liu Xuan was really skilled at making tea. Su Wan's gaze landed on Liu Xuan's hands as she watched him smoothly make tea for her.
"Princess Royal?"
Noticing Su Wan's gaze, Liu Xuan froze and subconsciously called her again.
"Oh."
Su Wan snapped out of her trance and smiled awkwardly. "I didn't expect Prime Minister Liu to be so good at making tea. Even the way he makes tea is special. I'm stunned."
"This is … practice makes perfect."
Hearing Su Wan's words, Liu Xuan's gentle face quickly darkened.
They were both sons but because he couldn't practice martial arts, his mother found many teachers to teach him the four arts, as well as the art of making tea. Back then, his mother had been planning on sending him to the palace, right?
Heh. Unfortunately, things didn't turn out as he wished. Man proposes, God disposes.
The former emperor changed the system and he actually entered the court to become an official with his outstanding literary talent. However, his brother, who was skilled in both literature and martial arts, was willing to enter the palace to serve Her Majesty for the sake of love.
Liu Xuan didn't dare to agree with Liu Luo's choice. Regarding marriage, Liu Xuan had always insisted that a man and a woman should marry each other. Plus, they had to be in love with each other.
He thought that if they were in love with each other, even noble ladies would be willing to marry him. Otherwise, what was the point of talking about love?
While Liu Xuan was deep in thought, Su Wan elegantly took a sip of tea. "Prime Minister Liu, this tea is really nice. Actually, I have some nice tea leaves in my residence too. Prime Minister Liu, do you want to try?"
This was Su Wan's second test.
Liu Xuan's gaze flickered but he still maintained his gentle and refined appearance. "Princess Royal, thank you for your kindness. This official doesn't usually drink tea. If Princess Royal likes it, then take it."
Liu Xuan didn't directly reject her but tactfully answered Su Wan.
Hearing his words, Su Wan's phoenix eyes lifted. "A gentleman doesn't take away someone's love. After all, Her Majesty bestowed this tea to you. How can I take away someone's love? This isn't what a gentleman would do. Prime Minister Liu, don't you think so? "
Seeing the Princess Royal's profound words, Liu Xuan could only smile faintly and nod. "Princess Royal is right."
"So …"
Su Wan slowly stood up. "Master Yue came from my residence. Since he and Her Majesty love each other, I think I should let them be together. Tomorrow, I will draft a memorial to ask Her Majesty to accept Master Yue. I'm sure Prime Minister Liu will support this right?"
"This …"
Liu Xuan's gaze flickered. He wasn't sure if the Princess Royal was telling the truth or not.
"Heh."
Seeing Liu Xuan's hesitation, Su Wan smiled proudly. "Everyone thinks that I will harm Yue Qing. There's no need for me to lie in front of Prime Minister Liu. I do want him to die but since Her Majesty wants to protect him, I can only give up! He's just a traitor. I hate him because he's heartless. Since he likes to share a wife with someone else, I'll let him be. In this life … I want a pair of people for the rest of my life. Yue Qing left me because he didn't have the fortune to do so! "
"A pair … for the rest of my life?"
Liu Xuan froze hearing Su Wan's words.
That's right. At this moment, the door to a new world opened for Prime Minister Liu ~
