In the cold winter season, the plants in the small garden droop their heads, curled up listlessly in the flower beds repaired by bluestone bricks, and the morning frost is like a thin veil on the leaves, hazy. The pen and the fun pavilion www.biquge.info sighed for a long time, and the feet along the way were as if they were filled with lead. She stared at Xu Xiachu with resentment, and then looked at the green fruit with her head bowed on the side.

After walking straight for more than ten zhang, the winding path suddenly opened up, and a pavilion was built on the shore of a mirror-like lake, and the sound of a woman talking and laughing was heard in the distance. Duanyue listened to the voice, her heart tightened, and she became nervous for some reason. She subconsciously bit her lower lip, and her expression became uncomfortable. Seeing her look so uneasy, Cuiguo gently took her hand and passed her warmth to her. "The county lord doesn't have to worry." Looking at her smile, Duanyue had no choice but to nod, but the fear in her heart was still difficult to eliminate.

Xu Xiachu turned her head and said lightly. "You are the emperor's own lord of Shi'an, and those ladies have to salute when they see you, why are you nervous?"

"I'm ......," she turned away, hiding her embarrassed expression. When I was in Shattered Leaf City, I had never seen this kind of stance. ”

"Then you have to get used to it early, this kind of scene will only be more in the future." Xu Xiachu clenched his fists in front of his chest, he was almost two heads taller than Duanyue, and Duanyue could only see his arrogant jaw when he raised his eyes. She sighed secretly, it was so tiring to be a powerful person!

Under the guidance of Xu Xiachu, Duanyue made enough muscles, pretended to be dignified, and walked straight to a group of flowery Yanyan's female dependents. The eldest of those girls was no more than thirty, and four of them came with their mothers. There were about a dozen women standing in the pavilion, all of whom had different appearances, but all of them were richly dressed and wore shiny and delicate buns. When they saw that Duanyue finally appeared, the chattering laughter instantly quieted down.

Although they heard that the lord of Shi'an was still young, they were surprised that she was just a child. Some people with evil intentions secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Originally, I was worried that if it was a cardamom girl, it would be troublesome, but when I met today, I realized that she was not enough to pose a threat.

The crowd of people accepted their various expressions with good manners, and then changed into a deferential and humble appearance, and curtsied at Duanyue. "Shi'an County Lord Jin An!" The people in front of him squatted down with their bodies, which made Duanyue suddenly playful. If they don't speak, will these individuals just stop moving? With this thought, Duanyue's face became solemn, put on an expression that did not match her age, and quietly looked at the people in front of her.

If it was a few seconds, it wouldn't be a problem, at most, I thought that the county lord didn't react, which was not surprising for a child who was more than ten years old. But after saluting for a while, Duanyue didn't say anything. This group of female dependents was so embarrassed that they half-bent their knees, and no one dared to make a sound. Xu Xiachu looked at Duanyue sideways, and said secretly in surprise: This little girl, am I looking down on her? I even know how to give others a horse!

Looking at these female dependents, when they couldn't support their bodies and began to tremble, Cuiguo felt that something was wrong, and gently shook Duanyue's wide sleeves with a flushed face. "County Lord, let these ladies get up quickly!" Duanyue didn't feel that there was anything wrong, but since Cuiguo said so, she followed her wishes. Duanyue pretended to raise her hand and waved it at all the female dependents. "How tired you are standing here, it's better to go home early, so that I can be quiet and quiet."

No one expected that Duanyue's first sentence would be an eviction order. The ladies looked at each other, not knowing what to say, and they were so frightened that they stood still and didn't dare to move. Xu Xiachu seemed to be watching the excitement on the side, and when she saw her speaking so viciously, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise. The ladies who are standing, who are not the daughters of important ministers in the court, are also the heads of the family in their respective houses, and they have been treated like this, not to mention that they are still a little girl. Seeing that they were all blushing, but they didn't dare to make a sound, this made Xu Xia feel a little inexplicable in her heart.

On the opposite side of him is Emerald Fruit. She doesn't have Xu Xiachu's state of mind, although she knows that Duanyue is not a person who can play cards according to common sense, but her debut as the county lord is too domineering, right? She hurriedly leaned into Duanyue's ear and said anxiously persuading. "County Lord, this can't be! How can you give people an eviction order as soon as they meet! She herself was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, but the Lord was at ease.

Duanyue smiled at the group of dumbfounded people, and nodded elegantly. "Man, you've seen it too, is there anything else?"

"This ......" The ladies still looked at each other, not knowing what to do. This is also the first time they have encountered such a thing. After a few seconds of silence, a lady in dark purple clothes standing in the crowd shook her head helplessly at the people around her, she bowed her hand and said. "The concubine has no intention of disturbing the county lord, today is a time when we didn't choose a good time, the county lord who disturbed is idle, please don't blame."

Obviously, this lady is the one who is the leader, she spoke first, and the rest of the people responded one after another, saying that it was as if it was her own fault, which made Duanyue a little embarrassed. She hurriedly waved her hand. "Forget it, go back!" Before she could finish speaking, she turned and walked away. Cuiguo only felt that her eyes were dark, which of these ladies was not a person! It is estimated that in a few days, the whole capital will know that the general will definitely punish himself! She sighed sadly. Seeing Duanyue's brisk footsteps, judging the two of them when she came, Cuiguo could only shake her head to cheer herself up. She bowed down to Xu Xiachu to say goodbye, and then hurriedly caught up with Duanyue and left.

"Alas," seeing Duanyue leaving, these ladies became relieved. Looking at Duanyue's departing figure, everyone's face was difficult to express. "This Shi'an County Lord is really domineering, and he knows how to dismount at a young age." A few people with broken mouths started to complain, and the lady in dark purple clothes quickly interrupted them with her eyes.

She slowly walked in front of Xu Xiachu, her face was very kind. "Xia Chu, is this the temper of this Shi'an county lord on weekdays?" The woman's tone was very intimate, obviously having a lot to do with Xu Xiachu.

Xu Xiachu shrugged her shoulders and smiled helplessly. "Growing up in the frontier, it is inevitable that her personality is a little more flamboyant, and she is not to blame for seeing this scene for the first time. Auntie, don't take it to heart. ”

"It's because I didn't choose a good day, forget it." She smiled and shook her head. "You said that I was in my thirties and thirties, and I was even played like this by a child, and it was a joke to say it."

"Mrs. Yu, then let's go first."

The lady who was traveling with her couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to leave. Mrs. Yu had no choice but to nod at them, and turned her face to Xu Xiachu to say goodbye. "That's it, I'll go first."

Duanyue returned to the house and felt really comfortable. She lifted her heavy skirt and rushed back into the room with a brisk stride, sitting on a round stool and shaking her legs. Cuiguo couldn't match her physical strength, and she couldn't speak for a long time panting against the door frame. Struggling to move to the table, he drank the tea in the porcelain cup in one gulp before he could breathe.

"County Lord!" Before she could swallow a sip of herbal tea, she immediately opened her round eyes and frowned. "What should I do! Those ladies are not idle people, if you go outside and say anything, then the county lord, your face will be gone! Cuiguo was anxious, as if the person who had lost face was herself.

She let out a long sigh and sat down, her face pulling long. It was only at this time that Duanyue felt that she seemed to be a little inappropriate. She scratched her head and smiled awkwardly. "I can't help it. Otherwise, if I stay there, I don't know what to say to them. She lay down on the table and carefully pushed the pastries on the table in front of Cuiguo. You say yes, right? ”

"Thanks to Madame, otherwise I don't know how to get down the steps." Ignoring the plate moving in front of her, Cuiguo muttered to herself.

"Mrs. Yu?" Duanyue tilted her head and thought about it. "It's the one in purple, right?"

Cuiguo raised her eyes and nodded at Duanyue. "Mrs. Yu is Yu Zhongshu's wife, with a good family and a good personality, so she naturally became the leader of that circle. You see, the ladies don't all listen to her. ”

Duanyue thought back to Mrs. Yu. He is not tall, very thin, and the contours of his cheeks are clear. The eyes are slender and narrow, not the appearance of a beauty, but it looks very comfortable and not annoying, and there is a familiar feeling. "Tsk, this Mrs. Yu, why do I look familiar?" She was sure that this was Mrs. Yu's first time she had met. But this face is not unfamiliar.

"Ahh I've forgotten about it! Mrs. Yu, she is Vice General Xu's aunt! Cuiguo patted her head and exclaimed. It is Vice General Xu's mother's ...... Sister, that's right, it's his aunt. Listening to Cuiguo's words, Mrs. Yu is indeed a little similar to Xu Xia's early growth, no wonder she looks so familiar.

"But, county lord," Cuiguo suddenly put away the appearance she had just made, and put on a bitter and hateful look. "You can hide from the first day of junior high and you can't hide from fifteen. The Chinese New Year is coming next month, the emperor will definitely hold a state banquet, and you will definitely be invited, so it can't be the same as this time! ”

State dinner? These two words made Duanyue's heart panic, she rubbed her face, and her eyes were lifeless all of a sudden. "Wait until that day!" In the end, we can only postpone the future to a later date.
