17. Suspicion of the real body
He Biqing was covered by He's mother, leaving only a pair of eyes, and tears rolled in her eyes. Mother He saw that she didn't speak, so she let go of her hand and repeated: "Remember? ”
"Hmm." He Biqing nodded, her voice as small as a fly: "I remember, mother." ”
Qing Yan watched these silently on the side, and couldn't interject, but felt in his heart that it was not a good thing for the stepmother to enter the door. He reached out and took He Biqing's hand, then let go, and suddenly broke out of He's mother's arms and ran away.

said that Qing Tong didn't stay in the study for much time, and he went back to the room not long after Qing Yan and He Biqing left. When I got to the room, I washed up briefly, and lay down on the bed, my hands folded under my head.
From Li Houde, she probably also knew the origin of this palace autumn, and she felt more relieved. The holy decree was issued from Xu Jing, and no matter what twists and turns there were, Qing Tong felt that he would not harm his own son.
Besides...... The person who took care of her all night last night...... Isn't it him?
Qing Tong was thinking about it when she suddenly heard someone knocking on the door. When I came back to my senses, I heard Qing Yan standing outside the house say, "Dad, have you slept?" ”
"Not yet." Qing Hitomi got up from the bed and opened the door to let Qing Yan in.
Qing Yan entered the house, a little scared.
As soon as Qing Tong saw him like this, she knew that something was wrong, and kicked him in the ass and said, "What are you doing like a girl?" ”
Qing Yan covered his buttocks and looked up at Qing Tong: "I don't want a stepmother, can my father not marry?" ”
"I can't." Qingtong replied very dryly, and sat down on the kang as she spoke.
Qing Yan also followed, climbed onto the kang, asked for a cup of tea to eat, and said: "Our family is very good now, but if we have a stepmother, I'm afraid it won't be good." ”
"Why is it bad?" Blue Hitomi looked at him.
Qing Yan thought about it for a while, and said for a while: "Dad is often not at home, aren't you afraid that she will abuse me?" Mother He also said that if my stepmother treats me badly, she can't help me. Just now, I scolded Sister Qing, telling her to call me the second master in the future, and I am not allowed to call my brother again. ”
Qing Tong took a sip of tea and didn't speak. Since Mother He kowtowed in front of the palace, her psychology has changed dramatically. In the past, there were few people in the family, and she never cared about the orderliness and etiquette, but now she is worried about it. It turns out that she still wants to be strong, and she doesn't want anything at this time.
The teacup kept sipping between her lips, and when Qing Yan saw her stunned, she asked again: "Dad, to marry or not to marry?" I'm afraid in my heart, why don't we marry? ”
Qing Tong put down the cup, looked at Qing Yan and said, "Don't worry, with your father, no one can bully you." This marriage is given by the emperor, if you don't obey, it is a rebellion, and the whole family will be killed. ”
As soon as Qing Yan heard that the whole family was going to be killed, his eyes widened. He touched the teacup and took two sips of tea, looked at Qingtong for a while and said, "Then Dad should still marry." ”
Qingtong smiled: "Xu Zheng is in love with you." ”
"I hope so." Qing Yan rubbed off the kang: "Dad, I'm going back, you rest earlier." ”
Qingtong didn't leave him and sent him to the door.

When he arrived at office the next day, Qingtong still didn't care about the eyes of others, and he didn't feel sorry for himself. What she looks like on a regular day, and what she still looks like now, makes those who want to taunt her very boring. You are a joke, and if people don't take it to heart, it's a waste of that tongue.
At noon, Qing Tong was looking for classics in the bookshelf. I don't know when Li Houde arrived at her, patted her on the shoulder and said, "You can hold your breath." ”
Qing Tong lifted her face from the book, looked at him and said, "What if you can't hold your breath?" ”
Li Houde also pretended to look for a book, took out a random book from the bookshelf, and continued: "For the sake of you inviting me to eat and drink last night, I can't let you spend the wine money in vain, and I will tell you something about it." ”
Qing Tong closed the book in his hand and looked at him: "You say." ”
Li Houde cleared his throat and whispered: "At first, the Gong family was indeed opposed to Gong Qiu marrying into the Mo family, and the Mo family was not right at that time, but they were willing to marry this family. Later, I didn't know what happened, and the Miyaya family agreed again. I told you last night that something happened to the Mo family the day after they got married. This Gong Qiu had a knot in his heart, and the second one to marry, there was a knife hidden in his sleeve in the cave room, which almost made people lose their children and grandchildren, and was divorced the next day. The Gong family didn't dare to let her remarry, so they put it aside at home. I'll kindly remind you, don't act rashly and be abolished. You're still smart, don't do anything at night in the cave room, and you've been separated after marriage, understand? ”
Qingtong nodded slowly, Li Houde finished speaking, straightened the book in front of him, and said, "The wine money has been returned, and I can't help anything else." If there's anything you don't understand, just ask me, and I'll give you ideas. You stupid don't pull a few, how did you get the top score? ”
Qingtong smiled and hurriedly saluted: "Thank you, Brother Li." ”
"Yes." Li Houde said: "You are from the sixth grade." ”
Qingtong didn't care about the meaning of his words, she only felt that although this Li Houde was not a gentleman, he was not bad in the end. said that he was so smart and treacherous, and he could still show some sincerity if he received some small favors.
The two were talking, and there was a voice clearing their throats next to them. Qingtong and Li Houde both turned their heads and saw Zhao Yan and Yan Qing standing not far away. Li Houde turned around and said, "You have something to say." "And left.
As soon as Li Houde left, Zhao Yan and Yan Qing approached Qingtong. The two looked at Qing Tong, Yan Qing had a displeased look on his face, and said, "You really went with Li Houde?" Don't you know how many crooked thoughts he has in his head? ”
"Hmm." Qingtong looked at Yan Qing: "But I don't have anything worth his pit for." "It's just that there are too many people and I want to make a move in front of myself.
"I offended the Ministry of Rites, and now I want to figure out Guò Li Houde, hugging the big tree of the Ministry of Household Books, what do you think?" Zhao Yan was calm, and he couldn't see his joy or anger.
Qingtong cracked and laughed and looked at Zhao Yan: "You think so about me?" ”
Zhao Yan saw her smile so easily and warmly, and inexplicably wanted to roll up her sleeves and go up to pump her. restrained for a moment, then went up and kicked her in the ass, scolding: "Foolish thing, when have you been laughing?!" ”
Qing Tong was kicked by him and threw a few steps forward, but fortunately he held on to the bookshelf and didn't fall. She turned her head in shock, straightened the official hat on her head and said, "Your mother! What are you kicking me for?! I'm from the sixth grade, and you are only the seventh grade! ”
"I have a father, do you have one?" Zhao Yan stretched out his hand again: "I still want to pump you!" ”
Qingtong staggered behind Yan Qing and said, "It's over, your impression in my heart is completely over." ”
"What?" Yan Qing glanced back at Qing Tong slightly.
Qingtong still hid, and said: "I originally thought that Brother Zhao was an elegant scholar, but I didn't know that he was a rude and reckless man. Bai has a handsome appearance, but it's a pity. ”
Zhao Yan was angry when he heard this, and he didn't hold back his laughter for a long time, and said with a helpless smile on his face-You come here, I promise not to kill you!
Yan Qing was also amused by Qing Tong, pulled her out, pushed her to Zhao Yan and said, "Brother Zhao, tear his mouth!" ”
Qing Tong didn't control his body and hit Zhao Yan directly. Zhao Yan stretched out his hand and grabbed her shirt neatly, and the playful smile on his face suddenly froze for a moment - the moment he bumped into her just now, there was something wrong.
Qingtong also realized it, and hurriedly broke free of Zhao Yan's hand, and said, "Don't make trouble, let others see that it is unseemly." ”
"It's okay if you don't make trouble." Yan Qing said next to him: "Please have a drink in the evening, tell us about you and the girl of the Feng family, and spare you this time." ”
Over there, Zhao Yan also turned around, as if nothing had happened, and coaxed with a smile: "Let's ask for the best attic room and the best wine in Yuxian Building." ”
Qingtong's face pulled - this is the rhythm of going bankrupt!
In the evening, Qingtong did not run away, and was taken to the Yuxian Building by Zhao Yan and Yan Qing. Qing Tong really hates this place, the silver burns like a dark coin!
The three of them found a pavilion and sat down, and Yan Qing expressed all the dissatisfaction in his heart. Say that Qingtong is a heartless person who doesn't treat them as his own. perfunctory didn't say anything, and after they ignored her, they didn't ask for peace, but went to eat and drink with Li Houde, which was simply unconscionable!
When Yan Qing finished counting one by one, Qingtong had no choice but to pick up the wine to make amends. Zhao Yan didn't say anything, and directly picked up the wine glass and drank it all. After drinking the wine in the cup, Yan Qing looked at Qing Tong again and asked, "It's still that thing, why don't you marry Feng Yu and let yourself end up where you are now?" ”
Qing Tong lowered his head, then raised his head to look at Yan Qing, and said in a deep voice: "Some things are complicated, it's not that I don't want to be honest with you. It's just that everyone has their own difficulties. ”
Zhao Yan didn't speak, just stared at her. When she finished speaking, Yan Qing was still not satisfied, and snorted: "You still don't treat us as friends!" ”
Yan Qing is young after all, and Qingtong tries her best to convince her. Over there, Zhao Yan smiled for a moment, and then said: "Yan Qing, don't be embarrassed for him, there is really a last resort, but it seems that we don't understand people." ”
Yan Qing thought about it, but he was still a little reluctant, but in the end he didn't ask. After changing the topic and saying something happy, Yan Qing forgot about it. The three of them chatted casually, just as before.
Zhao Yan and Yan Qing saw that Qingtong was not bothered by marrying Gong Qiu, and there was nowhere to persuade them, and this topic was not long, so they were all over. The parties themselves are relieved, and no matter how aggrieved the bystanders look at it, it is also a fake aggrieved.
It wasn't until the drinks were exhausted, the three of them had fun, and the night was thick outside, that they dispersed and went home.
Out of the Yuxian Tower, Yan Qing floated with steps, obviously eating too much. just waited for the little maid in the family to come up to help, and said goodbye to Zhao Yan and Qingtong, and went. Qingtong didn't have any servants by her side, and she was about to leave, when she heard Zhao Yan say, "I'll send you back." ”
Qingtong was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said: "No need, I'm not drunk yet, I can find my way back." ”
Qingtong's excuse was useless, Zhao Yan had already called the coachman at home. He asked Qing Tong to get into the car with a non-negotiable attitude, and Qing Tong had no choice but to get on.
Climb into the car and sit down in the compartment and let out a big breath. Zhao Yan came up after her, opened the curtain and sat down next to her. Too close, Qing Tong was a little uncomfortable, so she moved inside. I had just moved twice, and suddenly there was an extra hand on my waist.
Qingtong's body instantly stiffened, and he turned his head to look at Zhao Yan. Zhao Yan didn't have any expression on his face, he only slammed away the force on the hand on Qing Tong's waist, and said, "I want to confirm one thing, don't you mind?" ”
