Chapter Ninety-Eight: Autumn Night Scars

Shuo'an lowered his head, and a thousand thoughts flashed through his mind. Could it be him? How is this possible? "The subordinate sued the son of the son." Shuo'an whispered, not hiding anything.

"Scarlets?" Qiu Gongjin hesitated slightly, his eyes sank, thoughtful.

Although Autumn Night Scar is not his own child, he is also raised by himself. He didn't believe in this son, and he hid many things from him.

The only person he trusts is Shuo'an. But although he is not kind to this son, if the big things are decided in the future, his high-ranking officials will be indispensable.

"This matter must be checked for me, it is related to my Qiu family's army, if Qiu Xiangxue is taken captive by Xiao Jue, the end of you and me is near." He lowered his voice, but his anger was even worse.

Shuo'an also knew that this matter was important, and he couldn't be sloppy, so he was busy. Qiu Gongjin waved his hand, sent Shuo'an out, and then sat on the chair to calm his irritable mood.

He looked sideways slightly, looking at the plate of dim sum on the small machine next to him, which was no longer fresh. It was on the day that the crown princess's fake pregnancy was exposed, the prince asked Shuo'an to send it.

He had already investigated the matter, and the pastry was made by Princess Jinghua, and it was clear who instructed him.

"Nie Rongze, since you insist on being an enemy of the old man, don't blame the old man for being polite." His dark eyes flashed with a hint of sink, and he immediately got up and left.

After Shuo'an came out of the study, he walked towards the courtyard of the autumn night mark, and when Fang walked inside, there was a light coughing sound.

Autumn Nightmark pushed open the door, some pale faces faintly in the sunlight, and he looked up to see Shuo'an standing in his courtyard.

"Why don't you come in?" The cool voice of the autumn night mark asked, and the eyebrows were as light as ever.

Shuo'an shifted his steps, but didn't know how to speak. Autumn Night Scar walked towards him and said softly, "It's a little stuffy in this house, why don't you go out for a drink with me?" ”

His soft gaze fell only slightly, without any affection.

Shuo An nodded, and followed the autumn night mark out of the Prime Minister's Mansion. The autumn night mark brought him to the Yuexin Restaurant, but this place has been renamed the first branch of the Mochizuki Restaurant.

Except for the plaque, the rest is the same as before, but the dishes here are also like Mochizuki Restaurant, so the business is also very good.

Here is the autumn night mark to Qiu Shuiman, although afterwards the stingy man gave him a thousand taels of gold.

But no matter what Xiao Jue is, there are memories of him and Qiushui that can't be erased here. It's just that he hasn't seen her come since he gave this place to Qiu Shuiman, and many nights he sat in his room on the second floor, drinking wine and looking at the long street.

The end of the street led to King Yin's mansion, and he wished that the figure he had been thinking about could walk towards him from the layers of fog.

"Childe." Shuo An was slightly stunned by the autumn night marks and called him lightly.

Autumn Night Scar came back to his senses, looked up at the plaque, smiled slightly, but there was endless tenderness in his eyes. "Let's go inside." He walked in front and went straight into the store.

Autumn Night Scar is a frequent visitor here, the shopkeeper is already familiar with it, and there is a private room upstairs specially prepared for him, even if he doesn't come to the shopkeeper, he won't bring other guests here.

Shuo An and Qiu Yeji entered the private room together, the shopkeeper immediately went to prepare wine and food, Qiu Yeji's internal injuries were not healed and there was a little cough, Shuo An asked worriedly: "How do you drink when you are so sick?" ”

Qiu Yeji shook his head slightly, and said with a warm smile: "It's okay, if you don't drink, the injury will heal more slowly." He picked up the teapot next to him and took the lead in pouring a cup for Shuo'an.

Shuo An was a little flattered holding the cup, he had been in the Prime Minister's Mansion for five years, and in these five years, only the autumn night marks did not look at him as a person.

"What did you do with me?" Autumn Nightmark put down the teapot and asked him.

Shuo An held the cup, turned it in the palm of his hand, and replied: "Last night, I was ordered to send Qiu Xiangxue to the Qiu Family Army, but this morning Xiangye received news that Qiu Xiangxue was rescued. ”

He didn't ask, he just told the whole story, he didn't know whether to suspect Autumn Night Marks.

Qiu Yeji didn't answer, but asked him: "Shuo'an, do you have a sweetheart?" ”

Shuo An was stunned, and a face with tears was clearly engraved in her mind, she was euphemistic and melancholy, and her low eyebrows and crying were particularly clear.

"Shuo'an's status is low, and he is not worthy of his sweetheart." He lowered his head, and a complicated emotion flashed in his heart. He knows his identity, he knows his mission, he can't have a heart as a killer assassin, let alone love?

Qiu Yeji's eyebrows moved slightly, glanced at him, picked up the good celadon tea cup on the table and took a sip of fragrant tea, and the faint fragrance rippled from between his lips and teeth.

"No one is noble or cheap, but their lives are different. Shuo'an, you don't have to be presumptuous, you have done your best for your father, and you don't have to give up your heart together. Father is kind to you, but there are thousands of ways to repay it, and you don't have to do things you don't like. ”

These words seemed to be persuasive and comforting, which made Shuo An on the side slightly surprised, and lost his mind again.

"Shuo'an is destined to be such a fate, and there is no way to change it." He lowered his head, remembering that from the moment he was rescued by Qiu Gongjin, his fate was no longer his own.

With a low sigh, the shopkeeper knocked on the door and brought the food and drinks. The two stopped talking, just watching the shopkeeper put the wine and food on the plate, and the sultry aroma of the food spread in the room.

At this time, in King Yin's mansion, Qiushui slept and felt much better, but the air in this mansion was a little depressed, she changed into an ordinary dress and walked out.

When Qing Fall saw her come out, he hurriedly stepped forward and was about to ask, but he heard Qiushui say, "Come with me out of the house." Her voice was a little detached, and the expression on her face was a little gray.

Without waiting for Qing Shui to answer, Qiu Shuiman had already walked outside, and Qing Shui hurriedly followed, but fortunately, Xiao Jue did not order to ban Qiu Shuiman's feet.

The two of them left King Yin's mansion, and walked aimlessly on the sparse streets in the autumn water. On the early autumn day, the air was exceptionally comfortable, she closed her eyes and took a deep breath, slowly opened her eyes, and the gloom in her heart swept away a lot.

Qingluo knew that she was uncomfortable in her heart and wanted to persuade her, but she found that she didn't know what to say, so she could only watch Qiushui be anxious.

Xu was aware of Qingshen's thoughts, and Qiushui turned his head sideways at Qingshen and smiled indifferently: "You don't have to worry about me, I'm fine." ”

She said it lightly, and she didn't see any affection. Qing Shen twisted his clothes and bit his lower lip and said, "Princess, the slave has never seen you like this, so I am afraid." ”

Qiushui was slightly stunned, and the corners of her lips were mocking, she had only been here for more than two months, but two months was enough for her to fall in love with someone.

Love, whoever is serious will lose.

"Let's go." She hung her head, and a wisp of green silk fluttered slightly in her ear.

Qiushui walked along the long street in front of King Yin's mansion, and suddenly a familiar aroma of vegetables wafted over, and she looked up at the golden plaque in the dazzling sunlight above her head, and the messy memory in her heart emerged.

She didn't think much of it, and walked in with her skirt in hand. The shopkeeper didn't know Qiu Shuiman, and when he saw the guests coming, he hurriedly stepped forward to greet them.

Qiu Shui looked at the full house of guests downstairs, and the dishes on the table were all from her handwriting. Seeing this qiē, she felt a touch of satisfaction and familiarity, as if she had returned to her long-lost hometown.

"Shopkeeper, are there any vacancies?" Qiu Shuiman asked.

"Yes, there's upstairs." The shopkeeper was busy letting the shopkeeper lead him, and Qiu Shuiman and Qingshen went up to the second floor together.

After sitting down in the room, Qiu Shui Man wanted to ask the shopkeeper how the business was here, so he asked Qing Fall to drink tea here and wait for her.

Qing Shui knew that Qiu Shuiman was looking for something to do, so he didn't stop him.

Qiu Shuiman walked out, remembering that he had been here often with Autumn Night Scar, and his footsteps involuntarily walked towards the place where they had stayed.

The door here is lightly closed, leaving only a small gap, and Qiushui saw that someone was shaking inside, knowing that there were guests, and wanted to go away, but heard the slight sound coming from the gap.

"I know you came to me to ask me about last night. That's right, I was the one who went to Qiu's army last night to save Qiu Xiangxue. "The sound of the autumn night mark is warm, thin and long like flowing water.

Qiu Shuiman was stunned when she heard this voice, and what surprised her the most was the three words Qiu Xiangxue, she was stunned for a moment, and her mind was blank.

There was the sound of a teacup falling inside, and Shuo An looked up at him in confusion: "Childe, why did you save her?" ”

Qiu Yeji pursed her lips, and the glimmer in her eyes flashed: "Although I don't like her, she is also a girl's family, and it would be a pity if she was ruined by those reckless people, so I rescued her." ”

Shuo An was a little nervous holding the teacup, raised his head and looked at him and said in a condensed voice: "Childe, you know, if this matter is known by Xiangye, you will be punished." ”

"Of course I know." Qiu Yeji chuckled and said, "I know that my father handed over this matter to you for investigation, but I don't want to embarrass you, so I will admit it to you." If you want to take credit, you can only tell your father about it. ”

Shuo An's hand holding the tea cup was a little tight, and his low voice seemed to be slightly angry: "Childe knows that in the Prime Minister's Mansion, only Childe is the best for his subordinates, how can his subordinates betray Childe?" It's just that if Gongzi wants to hand over Qiu Xiangxue to King Yin, then Xiangye will soon know that you did it. ”

Qiu Yeji raised his eyebrows slightly, gathered his sleeves and said, "Who said that I want to return Qiu Xiangxue to Xiao Jue?" Don't worry, even if it's for Man'er, I will never return her to Xiao Jue. ”

Qiu Yeji had already made up his mind, he risked his life to save Qiu Xiangxue from the Qiu family's army, just to pity her and not want her to be humiliated, but as for returning to King Yin's mansion, it was absolutely impossible.

"That's good, as long as the son doesn't show his traces, his subordinates can settle for the son. You also know that Xiangye hates King Yin so much, and finally caught the woman who didn't know whether to live or die, and wanted to humiliate King Yin. But you were interfered with by Gongzi, according to Xiangye's temper, if he let him know, he was only afraid of ......"

Shuo An has been by Qiu Gongjin's side for many years, and although Qiu Gongjin trusts him very much, he is not fully trusted. As for the autumn night mark, Shuo An has always seen it clearly, although he is the son of the Prime Minister's Mansion, he is not reused.

"Don't worry, my father can't find out about this matter, Qiu Xiangxue and I hide it very well." Qiu Yeji knew his kindness, and he chose to confess to him today, also to see if Shuo'an could make a friend.

But he was right, Shuo'an has a good conscience, and if he can leave Qiu Gongjin's side, it would be the best.

"Shuo'an, if you have someone you like in your heart, you must not retreat because of the disparity in your identity. If you believe me, tell me, and I will help you leave the prime minister's house with your beloved. ”

He looked up, his eyes full of sincerity and looked at Shuo'an.
