The sound of snow is like flying sand, the sound of the wind is like churning waves, the three watches of the world are shaking, and the snow is rushing and the wind is getting stronger. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The first snow of the year finally fell without warning. Xia Xue'er just closed her eyes, she didn't really fall asleep, and her ears listened to the rustling snow outside the house, and she had lost the excitement that she couldn't hide when she first met, but it was also full of waves. Lightly lifted the brocade embroidered quilt covered on his body, carefully stepped over the two people who fell asleep, walked barefoot to the window, and reached out to push open the window without any scruples.

Although it was only the second watch, the outside was already dyed with a piece of cleanness, and under the reflection of the snow, it looked no different from the fourth watch.

"It's snowing."

As she spoke, a brocade cloak with a white fur collar gently wrapped her slender body. Cuizhu may have slept lightly, or she may have not fallen asleep yet, Xia Xue'er just got off the bed, and she also got up.

"yes, it's snowing."

Xia Xue'er regarded the window coffin as a shoulder that she could rely on, just like Su Qi. Leaning over it, her eyes fixed on the half-cut trunk of the tree in the courtyard, she couldn't remember how many people had suggested that she cut it down, but she still hadn't done it.

"Can't you sleep, Miss?"

"Sort of."

Cuizhu stared at the quiet face of her young lady, and under the reflection of the snow, there was a little white after blood loss. Except for the two eyes that were as black as Zhai Shi and covered with a layer of melancholy like a veil, I couldn't see the slightest dissatisfaction, as if I had the leisure to lean on the window and enjoy the snow.

"Seeing that it's almost the third watch, Miss should rest early, even if you really can't sleep, you have to close your eyes for a while for today's appointment!"

Yes, I haven't seen her for half a year, she can't appear in front of Su Qi with two panda eyes and a haggard face!

Thinking of this, Xia Xue'er turned around obediently, and Cuizhu closed the window tightly and served her to sleep.

Time really passed quickly, and when I closed my eyes, it wasn't just when I fell asleep, but I felt that I had only been asleep for a while, and then I heard the sound of movement outside the house, and then I struggled to earn my eyes. Dongmei and Cuizhu are gone, and the cover next to the foot has been cleaned up at some point, and there seems to be no one in the house.

I don't know what time it is, Xia Xue'er lifted the quilt and got up, the room has been replaced with a newly lit charcoal fire, the silver frost charcoal royal blue flame is burning, very warm.

Hearing a sound in the inner room, the girl who was serving outside walked to the curtain to check and saw that it was indeed the young lady who got up, so she turned out of the door, and asked someone to inform the four sisters of Meilan Zhuju, and on the other hand, she led someone to fetch hot water for washing, and someone went to the small kitchen to pass the meal...... Listening to Yu Xuan, he was busy.

The snow outside has not stopped, but there is no rustling sound when the snow has just fallen, Xia Xue'er stood under the porch after breakfast, and watched a few second-class maids in the courtyard braving the wind and snow, building a one-person tall snowman, with a nose and eyes, decent, very cute.

couldn't help but smile and wanted to play with them, but as soon as he went down two steps, he heard the maid report that it was General Qin who invited him to see him, so he had to give up this idea for the time being.

"Please come in."

Xia Xue'er went up the steps but did not enter the house, but stood still under the porch, letting Xianglan gently brush away the snowflakes on her hair and shoulders for her, her eyes still looking at a few little girls in the courtyard, a little envious. They are all snow lovers, and if they weren't, they wouldn't be so happy to play in such a snowy day, completely ignoring the goose feathers and snow piling up on their bodies, and they are also covered in silver like this world.

After a while, there was a sonorous footstep sound in the corridor, accompanied by the clicking sound of the scabbard rubbing against the armor, Xia Xue'er knew that it was General Qin who came, so she reluctantly looked away, turned around and stood facing the corridor.

General Qin, who was dressed in military uniform, hugged his fist at Xia Xue'er five steps away and saluted: "The last general has seen the third lady!" ”

Xia Xue'er bowed back, and then asked, "The general came in the snow, but for the thief's break-in last night, didn't he already have a result?" ”

When General Qin took people away last night, he said that he would give her an answer two days later, and now the results have been judged just one night, presumably he was not idle this night.

"It's this matter, that thief is not a hard bone, and the last general will use some criminal law, and he will vomit all the truth of the matter!"

"Oh?" Xia Xue'er squinted her eyes slightly, last night Xianglan broke his hands and feet and didn't see him confide cleanly, although Vice General Qin was a person who killed the enemy bravely on the battlefield, he was not a ruthless person, how could that person come to him with just a little torture to recruit him cleanly?

raised his head, and saw that Vice General Qin didn't look at him quite right, as if he was observing how she would react! So he put away the doubt in his eyes, smiled lightly, and said: "Since this is the case, then hand it over to the government, and deal with it according to the law!" ”

"That's natural", Vice General Qin nodded, then looked at the person in front of him and said, "But before that, the last general has a question to ask the third miss, I don't know if the third miss is convenient at this time?" ”

"General, excuse me."

"Can you get acquainted with the third young master of the Dingguo Mansion?"

"The third young master of the Dingguo Mansion?"

As soon as Vice General Qin asked this, combined with the eyes of the previous inquiry, she guessed a few points, but she pretended to tilt her head and think about it, and only replied after a while: "Is it Young Master Zhang Xuan?" I only met once in Jian'an Hou Mansion last year, and I didn't know each other well. ”

"The person that Miss Xianglan caught last night was Zhang Xuan, he claimed to know you, but he came to congratulate you on your birthday, but he offended Miss San somehow, and was interrupted by Miss Xianglan, is there any misunderstanding between you?"

Xia Xue'er sneered after hearing this, congratulations on your birthday? Misunderstand? It's just nonsense! But he didn't get angry, but stared at the eyes of the person in front of him, and asked mockingly, "Does General Qin think this is credible?" ”

Vice General Qin did not answer, but boldly met her gaze, but saw that her eyes were open, not like lying, and he became more and more confused in his heart, and quickly sorted out the news in his hand from beginning to end, but it still did not come to fruition. After a long time, he was finally defeated in Xia Xue'er's eyes, bent down and hugged his fists, and said: "It is the last general who is reckless, this matter must be investigated carefully, and the third lady must be innocent!" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, a maid came to report: "Miss, the carriage is ready." ”

Xia Xue'er nodded and ordered, "Got it, you go down." ”

After the maid left, she looked at Qin's deputy general A Ning again and said, "The general is hard, but since this matter has been involved in the Dingguo Mansion, it is better to tell the eldest brother!" ”

Vice General Qin is an upright person, but his temper is as stubborn as a buffalo, and he doesn't know how to change things when he encounters them. Since he could come to her early in the morning and ask her this question, he must have doubts in his heart, and he also believed the thief's words, so in the process of verification, he would inevitably fall into the trap set by the thief in advance, which would be unfavorable to her!

This matter still has to be watched by someone, but she is going to be out of the house for three days, and her father is not in Beijing, so she has to hand it over to her eldest brother! (To be continued.) )
