It was already summer, and there was no wind in the courtyard in the afternoon, and it was so hot that people couldn't breathe. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoXu Yuqin sat in the study, holding a book in his hand, reading it very carefully, and from time to time he wrote some of his own opinions and experiences at the end of the page. He likes to read, and spends most of his free time in this study. He was dressed in pale cyan silk, without a crown, and his hair was pinned with a black hosta, which was very leisurely. His complexion is fair, his eyelashes are long and curled in a beautiful curl, his lips are plump, and when he laughs, he has a swirl of laughter on either side. The eyebrows are thick, adding a bit of heroism and fortitude to the face that is too fair and beautiful. The most intriguing thing is his black and white eyes, when he looks directly at people, people can't help but be attracted by the brilliance in those eyes.

Recently, the affairs of the Hanlin Academy have been busy, and because of the proposal of the crown prince, the "Notes on the Forbidden Life of the Emperor and the Empress" of the early emperor and the former empress Zuo was revised. The master of the academy handed over the editing to him, and read the "Ouchi Record", "The Emperor's Living Note", "Chongde Xiaoxianwen Empress Xingzhilu" more than ten years ago, etc., and extracted the content that highlighted the harmony between the emperor and the queen, and studied and polished it, aiming to highlight the emperor's compassion for the harem, and the virtue and filial piety of the successive Zuo family.

He has been busy for several days, and now he has a day of leisure, and recently Wei Yan has avoided it, which makes him also happy, and Ze Ming has invited him many times, but he has refused. Last time, I asked my cousin to send her a thin leaf, but a few days have passed in the blink of an eye, and there is no response. And it added a lot of melancholy to him. I can only bury myself in the sea of books, forget my feelings, and read silently in front of a "Historical Records", and I don't realize that half a day has passed. After several persuasions, he used a bowl of soup indiscriminately, and continued to bury his head in the bookcase.

The little maid Jinmo stood outside the door, called "Second Master", and then pushed the door in, and said happily: "Letter from Weifu." ”

When Xu Yuqin heard this, he raised his head, smiled with his eyebrows, and said happily: "Show it to me." ”

Unfolded the incense note, and there was a line of small words written in it: "Gongzi Wan'an, Concubine Wei's has words, I hope to ask Gongzi to meet." Watching the rain pavilion, waiting for the evening. Eagerly awaited! ”

After a few words, Xu Yuqin read back and forth a few times, and the smile on his lips couldn't be hidden, and he secretly thought: "She actually thinks about me so far, and she desperately wants to see her?" ”

Jin Mo smiled: "Ye Zhen is looking forward to it, isn't it coming?" Miss Wei is so good at torturing people, but it took all these days to get the news! ”

Xu Yuqin said with a smile: "She is a deep house lady, and she writes diligently, doesn't it cause people to gossip?" Speaking of this, it suddenly occurred to me, how could Wei Yan be such a frivolous and casual person? She wrote to make an appointment, and it was so urgent, could it be that there was a reason?

Thinking of this, Xu Yuqin couldn't sit still, and he ordered: "Jinmo, Miss Biao is not in the mansion today?" ”

Jin Mo replied: "Yes, the little one saw that the soft sedan chair, shoulder, carriage and horse at home were all there, the weather was very hot, the sun was shining, and no one went out." ”

Xu Yuqin nodded, flicked his sleeves and said, "Let's go, go to the backyard." ”

Hearing that Wu Wenqian was talking with the Feng family, Xu Yuqin hurried to the upper courtyard and walked into the Ming Hall in Feng's seven-bay room, where the maid opened the curtain and said with a smile: "The second master is here!" ”

Mrs. Wu and her daughter were talking about Yuqin with the Feng family, and immediately smiled: "Look, talking about him, he is here!" ”

As soon as he entered the door, Mrs. Wu and Wu Wenqian saw it, their eyes lit up, they looked him up and down, and secretly sighed, "What a handsome son, but it's a pity that the marriage is missing!" ”

Xu Yuqin stepped forward to salute and said with a smile: "Aunt said about her nephew? Isn't it that my nephew has been lazy in the morning and dusk recently, and my aunt blames my nephew? ”

Mrs. Wu said with a smile: "I know that you are busy with business, and I heard what your mother said, the first queen's deeds record, you did an excellent job, and you were rewarded by the prince." It's too late for your aunt to be happy for you. ”

And Mrs. Wu's mention of the prince's reward made Xu Yuqin think of some unpleasant memories. The prince rewarded, he and the master of the academy knelt in front of the door under the corridor of the Hanlin Academy, the prince condescended, politely praised a few words, and ordered the attendants to look at the reward. Every time the attendant sings a word of reward, he prostrates once until he has finished reading the list of rewards.

The prince's attitude towards him was very gentle, and he had a polite and virtuous corporal posture, but thinking of the old affairs between the prince and Wei Yan inevitably made him unhappy and deeply frustrated. The identity of monarchs and ministers is incomparable. The more kind the prince was, the more embarrassed he became.

He said a few words modestly, and then asked about the health of Mrs. Wu and Feng's with concern, and gave Wu Wenqian a look while drinking tea. His eyes burned, and when he looked at her, his heart seemed to miss a beat, and a red cloud flew on his face, so he lowered his head, not daring to look at him, but thought in his heart: "What is he looking for me?" ”

Xu Yuqin sat for a while, then said goodbye and walked to the left under the verandah, waiting for Wu Wenqian.

"Cousin!" He saluted, didn't have time to say hello, and said bluntly, "Foolish brother has something to ask for." ”

When Wu Wenqian heard this, she was disappointed. The last time he begged for something, it was to ask her to be a messenger and deliver tokens to his fiancée. This time, I have something to ask for, and I think it has something to do with that person......

Sure enough, I heard him say: "Cousin saw Miss Wei last time, I don't know if she has any difficulties?" How are you in a good mood? Are you in good health? ”

Wu Wenqian reluctantly smiled and replied, "Why did my cousin say this?" The future cousin-in-law was very happy that day, and when she saw the things handed by her cousin, she was even more shy. ”

Xu Yuqin blushed unconsciously, and said suddenly: "Thanks to my cousin that day, I haven't thanked you yet!" This time, I have to bother my cousin once, I hope my cousin can go to Weifu for Brother Yu, take Miss Wei out, and meet me. ”

Wu Wenqian hesitated for a moment, seeing that he was very anxious, her eyes were full of anticipation. As soon as his heart softened, he nodded in response, but the corners of his mouth were full of sourness: "My cousin is anxious to meet Miss Wei, Wen Qian is naturally willing to serve, but I don't know if Miss Wei will agree." If you can't pick up someone, please don't blame Wen Qian for being useless. ”

Xu Yuqin shook to the ground: "This is natural, cousin just has to go once, whether it is successful or not, never complain!" The virtuous sister received a salute from the foolish brother. Thinking of many times of help, I would like to be sent by my cousin in the coming day to repay the great kindness! ”

Wu Wenqian's heart was overflowing with bitterness and came to the Wei Mansion. Wei Jiang got the letter and was about to go to meet him, but he saw Wei Yan leading Wu Wenqian and greeting Cui's family, so he hurriedly went out.

In the rain viewing pavilion, Xu Yuqin saw two single-horse carts from afar. He hurriedly walked down the pavilion steps, crossed the car marked with his own ornament, walked straight to the small car behind the Wei Mansion, and called, "Miss Wei! ”

Wu Wenqian poked her head out and said with a smile: "The person has been brought, Wenqian will not disturb your talk, so I will wait here." ”

Wei Yan helped Ruyue's men get out of the car, and after saluting Wu Wenqian, he followed behind Xu Yuqin and walked into the pavilion.

Xu Yuqin spread the stone chair in the pavilion with silk cloth before inviting Wei Yan to sit down. At this time, he changed into a pale embroidered green bamboo straight, with a jade belt hanging from his waist and a double spike, wearing a tulle cicada wing crown on his head, his face was full of concern, and asked her: "Miss Wei, what are the difficulties, please speak up, and I am willing to serve the dogs and horses." ”

Wei Yan's eyes were complicated, he glanced at him deeply, refused to sit down, and leaned over to salute: "Young Master Xu, Wei Yan is reckless, Young Master Lao does not give up, and he has a lot of trouble for Wei Yan." She thanked him and sent Wu Wenqian to take her out, so that she would not find an excuse to go out to meet him at night, and at the same time, it also ruined her reputation as a young lady.

"Miss and I, do you need to be polite?" Xu Yuqin smiled and said, "Miss is willing to see her, and she is very happy in her heart, but she is anxious, and she can only bother her cousin to go on this trip." ”

But Wei Yan had something in his heart, and he couldn't take care of the love of those little daughters, and he didn't even have time to be shy, so he saluted again: "Wei Yan knows that something is wrong, but there is no one else around him who can trust him in this matter." Childe is a noble person and calm, Wei Yan is only cheeky, please Childe, find out the whereabouts of my uncle for me! ”

"Miss's uncle? But the two elders of the Runan Tang family? Xu Yuqin married Wei Yan, so she naturally knew a lot about her family, and her grandfather also sent someone to learn about her mother's background......

"Exactly. After my mother left, my two uncles came to the funeral, and I was so sad that I didn't talk to my uncle deeply. Later, the two uncles have not heard from them for several years, and the day before yesterday I heard that the eldest uncle has passed away, and the younger uncle is nowhere to be found. Wei Yan did not directly say that she wanted to investigate her mother's death, only said that she was looking for her uncle's whereabouts, although she and Xu Yuqin had a relationship, after all, time was short, and there were some secrets, which could only be hidden in her heart, and she could not be frank with him.

"Miss, don't worry too much, this matter is wrapped up in the next body, Miss and wait for the next news with peace of mind." Xu Yuqin didn't ask much, she made a request, and he immediately responded. In fact, in his heart, he was secretly happy, she had difficulties, and she could think of herself for the first time, obviously thinking of herself as a dependent.

Wei Yan didn't expect him to come down without asking anything. How could she not be grateful? raised his face and wanted to say something, but saw that he was looking at him with a smile, his eyes full of tenderness. Wei Yan blushed at this time, didn't start, and said in a low voice: "Childe is so righteous, Wei Yan is grateful, and he has nothing to repay, so he can only ...... Thank you here......"

As he spoke, he leaned down and wanted to make a big salute.

Xu Yuqin hurriedly stopped her, held her arm with both hands, immediately felt that something was wrong, and quickly let go, seeing that she was already kneeling on the ground, he had to kneel down with her, and bowed before her: "Miss, don't be polite, be with Miss below, why is this?" Miss is willing to send here, and it is an honor to be here! Ask Miss to get up quickly, don't do it again, otherwise, I will only accompany Miss and kneel until dawn......"
