Chapter 12: My Brother's Protection

Xia Changyu hugged Xia Nanyue and just walked out of the gate of Chenwang's Mansion, Xia Nanyue raised her head and looked at her brother carefully, her thick black eyebrows were not big eyes, but they were bright, her skin was a little bronzed because of the border, but her original solemn appearance was destroyed by the two small dimples on her face, and her smile was very warm, like a big brother.

Luluo and Yulan waited in the room for a long time without waiting for Xia Nanyue, but they didn't dare to come out to look for it at will, so they could only wait patiently.

"Brother, I'm fine, you can let me down."

"Nope."

Xia Nanyue saw that someone was already watching, so she twisted her body to come down, but Xia Changyu couldn't resist it, so she slowly let Xia Nanyue come down.

"Are your feet alright? Can you go? Or I'm carrying you on my back? Xia Changyu kept asking questions all of a sudden.

Xia Nanyue jumped with a smile: "Look, it's okay, how can she hurt me?" ”

Xia Changyu breathed a sigh of relief: "My good sister, you want to scare me to death, the moment I fell to the ground, I really wanted to rush up,"

"What do you really want to do, you are not allowed to talk nonsense in the future, look at what you just did," Xia Nanyue did not forget to tell her brother who was older than herself, because the days to come will be longer, and there will be more grievances or humiliations than today, and you must learn to bear it.

Mingshu and Mingyi, who were wandering outside, saw gifts all over the yard as soon as they got home, and the curious Mingshu casually asked and knew that Mingmei went to Chenwangfu today, Mingshu was in a hurry to go out and want to see, he didn't know what to do in Chenwangfu, what to say, but he had an idea in his mind, he could see that unique woman when he went to Chenwangfu.

Ming Yi followed Mingshu to Chenwang's Mansion, and as soon as he turned the corner, he saw a tall man holding a woman out of the house, and it seemed that he was also a powerful family. After a while, I saw a familiar figure running out, got into the carriage and left.

"Isn't that Princess Yining's carriage?" Mingyi asked Mingshu suspiciously.

Mingshu also flashed a trace of doubt in his heart, and also opened the curtain to look, it was indeed Princess Yining's carriage, and he was about to say hello, but Princess Yining's carriage was too fast, so he had to miss it, and looked ahead, the figure in front was so familiar, so he ordered the coachman to stop, and hurriedly jumped out of the car and trotted over.

Xia Nanyue, who was originally talking, was slightly stunned when she saw Mingshu coming, but she still smiled.

"It's really you." Mingshu smiled, and only then did he notice Xia Changyu standing behind Xia Nanyue, who was about to say hello, but his shoulder was grabbed by a person.

"Brother, you, run so fast, why are you doing, I can't catch up." After Ming Yi's breath stabilized, he found the four people standing opposite, "Brother, why are you chasing them?" Didn't you go to my sister? ”

As soon as he said this, Xia Changyu turned around and didn't look at them. Mingshu felt that this attitude was too strange, but looking at Xia Nanyue, there was nothing wrong with such a familiar smile.

"Brother, let me ask you." Mingyi shook Mingshu.

Xia Nanyue's eyes were gloomy, and she smiled faintly: "Since you came to find Mingmei, you are busy, she is in the house." ”

"What happened to you? Just now, I seemed to look at the young general from a distance and looked at you a little anxiously, and why did the princess leave in a hurry? ”

Facing Mingshu who asked questions again and again, Xia Nanyue turned around and looked at Xia Changyu, who was full of color, raised her eyebrows high, and said: "Just now, my brother was idle and played a childhood game with me, but I didn't expect that I was a lot heavier, and he put me down after a few steps, so there is the so-called look you just watched." ”

"Oh~" Mingshu was skeptical.

Mingyi was already impatient, and pulled Mingshu away: "Let's go, let's go." ”

Xia Nanyue nodded, as a farewell, Xia Changyu still had a little tense face, and muttered dissatisfiedly: "Why are you so good-tempered, they are all bright brothers, and the weasel greets the chickens for the New Year, so they don't have any good intentions." ”

"Isn't that a fight?"

Xia Changyu was swept away by Xia Nanyue's words, and the depression in his heart was swept away, and he couldn't help laughing, and reached out to take Xia Nanyue's hand, "Let's go." ”

Xia Nanyue smiled happily, but swept past some whispering pedestrians passing by, and felt a dilemma, maybe some stories would be made up to entertain, although the things in the mansion just now could not be restored, those maids did not have so much courage, and they did not have time to gossip, but they entered the Chenwang Mansion in a bright light, and they were just in such a form and the expression of Princess Yining who left the Chenwang Mansion would definitely be speculated again. But she looked at her brother who was pulling her walking in front of her, and her heart couldn't help but warm, whatever others guessed, what did it matter.

Just like when he was a child, Xia Changyu took Xia Nanyue's hands, walked step by step, and finally walked to the door of the General's Mansion.

"Major General, Miss, why did you come back?" Wang's mother was serving the food, and she was a little puzzled in surprise, didn't the young lady leave at noon, why did she come back again.

"I just ran into my brother and came back with my brother." Xia Nanyue didn't want to be known too much and hide the truth.

Wang Ma looked at Xia Changyu, who was speechless, suspiciously, and felt that something must be wrong, so she asked cautiously: "Young General, your face is not very good, are you sick?" ”

Xia Changyu tried hard to laugh, but he couldn't: "No." ”

Wang Ma knew that it must be something that could not be said, so she had to smile and say, "It's okay, it's okay, I'm going to send food to the lord and the lady now, you can come too." ”

Just turned a threshold next to the front hall, Gu Yue, who was facing the door, saw Xia Changyu and Xia Nanyue beside Wang Ma, and her heart was up and down, could it be that Huichen Wangfu was driven out, and immediately walked to Xia Nanyue's side with concern, and naturally took the hands of her son and daughter: "Yue'er, Changyu, come on, come on, why did you come back together?" ”

Xia Changyu sat next to Xia Zhongnan, and when he was about to speak, he glanced at the maid in the room and closed his mouth.

Wang Ma took such an inconspicuous detail into her heart, beckoned, and all the maids, including herself, withdrew and quietly closed the door, and Xia Nanyue helped Gu Yue to sit at the dinner table.

"Say, there are no outsiders anymore."

Xia Changyu still looked at it, and made sure that there was no one at the door, so he said angrily: "Xiao Han, he actually let Mingmei pass through the door." ”

Xia Zhongnan sighed, Gu Yue didn't show any surprise, Xia Changyu frowned, and his voice couldn't help but raise a few degrees and asked, "Aren't you all surprised, don't you say something?" You've known that for a long time, haven't you?! ”

Xia Nanyue muttered in a muffled voice: "Brother, are you quiet, for fear that others won't hear you?" I told my father and mother at noon. ”

Xia Changyu hammered the table, unwilling, his eyes were a little bloodshot because of depression: "I should give Xiao Han some color." ”

Gu Yue felt that Xia Changyu was a little abnormal, his son's personality was very gentle, and if he said such a thing, something must have happened that he couldn't bear it, so he stroked Xia Changyu's back twice and asked softly, "Is something wrong?" ”

Xia Changyu stared at the food on the table, thinking of Xiao Yining's insult and Xiao Han's cold eyes, his eyes were red: "They deceived people too much, they even insulted their sister, and slandered their father," Before the words were finished, Xia Nanyue hurriedly stopped Xia Changyu, and then said: "Actually, it's not a big deal, it's Princess Yining's temper, you all know it, so you don't choose what to say, and say something unpleasant casually." ”

Xia Nanyue now feels that it is messy enough, if she lets her mother know, it is actually not a big deal, but it is the father with a fiery temper, who just calmed down his anger at noon today, if the fire in his heart is stirred up again, he may not be able to burn into something.

Xia Changyu tried his best to endure it, and when he heard that Xia Nanyue was taking on these sad things by himself, he really blamed himself: "That's a mouthful?!" Well, even if she doesn't choose her words, she can't push you! Since you were a child, you have also been spoiled, and even your father has never touched you, why is she?! ”

Xia Zhongnan's heart ignited as soon as he felt the fire, clenched his fists and stood up and walked out, Gu Yue pulled Xia Zhongnan tightly: "What are you doing?" ”

Xia Zhongnan tried to break free of Gu Yue's hand several times, but he couldn't break free, his eyebrows tightened, and he said angrily: "My daughter has suffered such a big grievance, I want to ask for an explanation!" Otherwise, where do I put Xia Zhongnan's old face, they all think that my Xia Zhongnan's daughter is a soft persimmon, can anyone pinch it?! ”

After speaking, he pulled his legs and left, dragging Gu Yue directly to the ground, Xia Changyu and Xia Nanyue shouted in a panic: "Mother! Xia Zhongnan stopped.

When Xia Changyu and Xia Nanyue tried to help Gu Yue, Gu Yue refused, looked up at Xia Zhongnan and said with tears in his eyes: "Master, who are you asking for an explanation now?" Emperor? Or King Chen? You're pushing the whole family into the fire pit. Yue'er, if I am wronged, won't I be sad as a mother, won't it hurt? She's a piece of meat that fell off my body. ”

"You get up first," Xia Zhongnan, who couldn't swallow this breath, looked at Gu Yue in pain, the dull pain in his heart hit his whole body, and helped Gu Yue to sit down, "Then what do you say?" ”

Gu Yue wiped away her tears with her sleeve: "Yue'er, what are you going to do?" ”

Xia Nanyue pursed her mouth, thought for a while, raised her delicate but somewhat haggard little face and said: "This matter is easy to do, and it is easy to do, I will go back to the General's Mansion, and the matter of Mingmei's entry into the Lord's Mansion will definitely be known by the emperor, the emperor will not sit idly by, even if he wants to sit idly by, someone will force him to come forward." Take another 10,000 steps back, even if the emperor doesn't know about it, King Chen will take me back. ”

Xia Changyu was puzzled: "How can you be sure that he will pick you up." ”

"Have you forgotten Princess Yining? She will definitely cry to the concubine and the emperor, even if she doesn't cry, the matter of you not going back to the princess's mansion will soon be passed on to the emperor, then the emperor will not sit idly by at this time, as soon as she asks the princess, she will know, even if the matter is reversed by the princess, but the emperor will definitely think of a way to mediate. ”

Gu Yue agreed with Xia Nanyue's statement very much, lowered her eyes and said lightly: "Then it can only be a palace banquet." ”

Xia Zhongnan asked Xia Changyu: "You're not going back to the princess's mansion?" Why? ”

Gu Yue was helpless with Xia Zhongnan, she could only grasp the sporadic and could not grasp the comprehensive, Xia Nanyue bit her lower lip, raised her eyebrows, and said mischievously: "The princess threatened not to want a brother." ”

For the first time, Xia Zhongnan didn't say ridiculous, but smiled comfortably: "Isn't this a good thing?" It's time to celebrate. ”

Xia Changyu and Xia Nanyue looked at Xia Zhongnan in surprise, Xia Zhongnan touched his chin with his hand, and said: "What our general's mansion does not lack is iron bones, how can it be her turn to be an unruly princess who speaks irbelietively and drinks six, and finally said something like that, how can this not make people happy, hahaha, come, let's have a few drinks." ”

Gu Yue looked at Xia Nanyue, who was a little worried, and didn't know what else was wrong, but if this matter was not well resolved, and she would indeed be allowed to walk back to the palace by herself, she would have to bear more pressure, Mingmei was active in the capital all the year round, and she was the daughter of Minghou, how old was Da Yue'er, this was really too difficult for Yue'er, who had just begun to enter the whirlpool of power.

The two men beside him were drinking, and Gu Yue whispered in Xia Nanyue's ear: "What's wrong?" Yue'er. ”

"It's nothing, on the way back, I met Mingju's younger brother Mingju."

A trace of concern flashed in Gu Yue's eyes, but Xia Nanyue was thinking about Mingshu and didn't notice it, "What's wrong?" What did he say to you? ”

"No, just a few words of greeting."

Gu Yue remembered that Yue'er didn't come back with Xiao Han yesterday, but was with Mingshu, and continued to ask, "How did you meet?" ”

"Oh~ I happened to meet in a small restaurant on the second day of the wedding, and then we chatted for a while, so I came back late that day."

"How is he? Much like his sister Mingmei? ”

Xia Nanyue was thinking about why Mingshu appeared in the Chenwang Mansion, and looking at his various greetings, she didn't want to see Mingmei, so she didn't think about it, shook her head, and replied casually: "He's very good, three months younger than me, and Mingmei is not like him at all, he looks like a rich son, personable, and the most important thing is that he has a pure heart and is very interested in frontier life." ”

After Xia Changyu and Xia Zhongnan drank a few glasses, they found that their sister couldn't stop talking, so they asked, "Who are you talking about?" ”

"Mingshu."

At the mention of this name, Xia Changyu's face darkened again: "Say what he does, how good can the family be, look at his hypocritical appearance, just go and see Mingmei, and ask you this and you." ”

Gu Yue opened her mouth and said: "I just heard Yue'er say, I don't think Mingshu is a child like you said, don't kill a boatload of people with a rod." ”

Xia Nanyue also echoed: "Really, brother, he is very good, I have dealt with him before, and he is not as hypocritical as you said, you can't deny him because of his sister." ”

Xia Zhongnan was confused when he heard this, raised his wine glass, pulled Xia Changyu, who was going to continue, and said, "Come on, come on, drink a few more glasses, what do you care about so much, let the two of them talk about it." ”

Gu Yue wanted to ask something more about Mingshu, but she was afraid of arousing Xia Nanyue's suspicions, so she gave up.
