The air is so quiet that you can hear a needle dropping it clearly, and the two people look at each other, which is more like a mental war.

Xue Qian stared at Xue Chen, and a smile suddenly bloomed on Xue Chen's face.

"Since Dad won't wake up for a while, then let's go out first, don't disturb Dad."

Saying that, Xue Chen pulled Xue Qian out, Xue Qian's fist, which was already clenched, was pulled by someone, so he had to let go, and Xue Chen was forced out of the old marquis's house.

Zheng Ren, who was guarding outside, watched Xue Chen pull Xue Qian's arm and walk out, his face couldn't help but turn pale.

Unwilling to see this scene, Zheng Ren could only lower his head and wait for Xue Chen's footsteps to pass him before following him.

If Xue Wen and Xue Wu were still a little unclear about the situation at the beginning, then looking at the situation in front of them, even Xue Wen and Xue Wu couldn't stand it anymore.

The two came to Zheng Ren's side, and Xue Wen said in a low voice, "Big brother, what's the situation now?" How could the little marquis be so close to Xue Qian...... We...... Didn't we already tell the little marquis about the current situation in the house before? ”

Zheng Ren shook his head, "Don't talk about it, little marquis...... Maybe he had an idea. ”

When he said this, Zheng Ren himself didn't want to believe it, but now that the situation is like this, he can only think on the bright side.

It's a big deal that after Xue Chen and Xue Qian separated for a while, a few people told Xue Chen about the current situation, and Xue Chen had to be careful even if he was close to Xue Qian.

Under Xue Chen's pull, Xue Qian chatted with Xue Chen in the main hall for a while, and took Xue Chen to walk around the mansion, looking up and down the entire Pingnanhou Mansion, inside and out.

The subordinates of the Pingnan Hou Mansion, who were ordered to perform their duties, found that although they didn't go to see the little marquis, the little marquis came to see them, and they were very happy.

Everyone watched Xue Chen grow up, although Xue Chen's personality was a little perverse, but he was extremely protective of his shortcomings, and he was very good to the people in Pingnanhou's mansion, so everyone really regarded Xue Chen as a family member.

Don't talk about others, let's just say that Aunt Zhang in the kitchen, when she saw Xue Chen, she immediately took out the almond tofu she had just made and gave Xue Chen a taste.

Aunt Zhang looked at Xue Chen as if she was her own son, and after taking something from Xue Chen, she kept staring, knowing that Xue Chen put the whole piece of almond tofu into her mouth.

"How? Is it delicious? ”

Aunt Zhang looked at Xue Chen excitedly, waiting for Xue Chen to give a judgment.

Xue Chen nodded with a smile, hesitated, and said to Aunt Zhang, "If only you could add more milk and frosted shredded coconut." ”

Hearing this, Aunt Zhang was stunned for a moment, then reached out and patted Xue Chen's arm gently, "Hey, it's not our little marquis, it's still so good at eating, you wait!" Auntie will try it tonight, if it is delicious, Ming'er will let you appear on the table. ”

I didn't expect Aunt Zhang to be so refreshing, Xue Chen smiled and nodded.

Xue Qian said on the side, "Tell my aunt what you want to eat tonight." ”

Xue Chen hesitated for a long time when he heard this, he didn't know what dishes to order, all he wanted to eat were those spicy and crispy dishes made by Su Qiange, the taste of the capital was different from that of Bashu, not to mention, I am afraid that Su Qiange was the only one who could make the taste of Su Qiange in this world.

Seeing Xue Chen's hesitation, Xue Qian thought that Xue Chen was restrained.

So Xue Qian comforted him and said, "The two of us can sit around and eat together at home now, don't worry about what you want to eat." ” 、

Saying this, Aunt Zhang was a little sad, "Hey...... I don't know when the old marquis's disease will be cured. ”

After speaking, he realized that Xue Chen was standing in front of him, and immediately realized that something was wrong with him, so he changed his words, "Little Hou Ye, you see what the old slave said, the old Hou Ye will definitely be fine soon." ”

Shaking his head, Xue Chen said, "I'm fine, Aunt Zhang, you don't have to apologize." Tonight...... I want to eat chili stir-fried meat, is that okay? ”

Aunt Zhang was stunned when she heard this, "Is this just the only thing to eat?" ”

Xue Chen nodded, "I'm tired of traveling, I don't have a good appetite, I want to eat something spicy, you can take care of the rest of Aunt Zhang." ”

Seeing that the little marquis was so pitiful, Aunt Zhang immediately took all the responsibilities and agreed.

"Okay! Little Marquis, just wait! I'm sure I'll make you a table of appetizers! ”

Zheng Ren and Xue Wen Xue Wu looked at the excited Aunt Zhang behind them, and they didn't look forward to it...... It can be called home-cooked food.

In fact, everyone doesn't know why the old marquis is so affectionate, after so many years, it's not that he can't afford to hire a good cook, why he must keep Aunt Zhang.

To be honest, it's not such a way to remember bittersweet and sweet.

Leaving Aunt Zhang's kitchen, Xue Chen and Xue Qian were about to go back to their respective courtyards to rest, when they saw the guards guarding the door running in quickly.

When there were still three steps left between the two, he immediately knelt down on one knee and reached out to hand over the envelope in his hand.

Xue Qian glanced at the inscription above, and his eyes darkened.

came to report to the guard, "The right minister sent a letter to greet the little marquis." ”

Xue Chen took the letter, although Xue Chen lowered his eyes, his eyes kept following the letter from the right minister.

After Xue Chen completely took the letter, Xue Qian looked up at Xue Chen with a smile, looking envious, "It seems that the teacher misses you too, even if he is sick, he will not forget to send you a letter to see you." ”

Saying that, Xue Qian observed Xue Chen's expression and found that Xue Chen's expression was very ugly, and his face was as cold as a frozen lake.

"What's wrong, little brother?"

The question came out, but Xue Chen didn't answer, the letter that was pinched in his hand was thrown lightly and slowly fell to the ground, no one expected Xue Chen to react like this.

No, to be precise, Zheng Ren expected it, when he and Xue Chen discussed the right phase, Xue Chen showed resistance to the right phase.

But Jung in didn't expect it to be so serious.

"Little brother!" Xue Qian put away the joy in his eyes and roared at Xue Chen in surprise.

Xue Chen raised his head and looked at Xue Qian as if he had just come to his senses, "Big brother? ”

"How can the letter given by the master be thrown away casually? You don't respect the teacher, and if you spread it out, people will know that you are going to become the object of ridicule by everyone! ”

"Will the big brother get out?" Xue Chen behaved like an injured young beast, looking at Xue Qian with a layer of mist in his eyes, "It's obvious that the teacher did something wrong first, can't I be angry?" ”

“…… Where did you hear all these words? ”

Xue Qian was stunned when asked, he had this idea, but it was difficult to implement it when he was asked like this, so he could only continue to pretend to be an understanding and kind eldest brother, "But what you said is right, it is the teacher's fault, we are family, and the eldest brother will naturally be towards you." ”

Hearing this, Xue Chen, whose eyes were full of mist, slightly hooked the corners of his mouth.

"It's good if the eldest brother doesn't say it, the eldest brother doesn't say it, I don't say it, if it really accidentally spreads, all the people present today except me and the eldest brother will be assigned to the frontier!"

As soon as these words came out, the faces of all the people present became ugly, and Zheng Ren, Xue Wen and Xue Wu didn't expect Xue Chen to say this.

The innocent guards who delivered the letter were eager to chop off their own hands to save themselves from being assigned to the frontier.

Xue Qian's brows tightened, Zheng Ren's people who were in the way were assigned to the frontier, how could the people around him be sent out! I don't know if Xue Chen really doesn't understand anything, or if he did it on purpose.

The teeth of hatred itched Xue Qian, but he couldn't roar at Xue Chen, after all, Xue Chen had not fully recovered his memory now, and he had to take advantage of this time to have a good relationship with Xue Chen.

Holding back his anger, Xue Qian nodded at Xue Chen with a smile, "Okay, whatever the junior brother says." ”

"The eldest brother deserves to be the eldest brother, and the eldest brother in this family treats me best!" Xue Chen raised a middle finger at Xue Qian.

Xue Qian looked at the middle finger and was stunned, and asked inexplicably, "What does this mean, junior brother?" ”

Xue Chen smiled and said, "It's the eldest brother who is second to none, the best meaning." ”

"I see."

Xue Qian nodded clearly, a smile on his face.

After the interlude of the letter from the right minister passed, Xue Chen finally returned to his courtyard, and as soon as he entered the room, Xue Chen saw Zheng Ren kneeling, his hands clenched into fists, and he looked like he was going to bear the guilt.

Taken aback, Xue Chen curled up on the rosewood chair and blinked, "Chief Guard Zheng, what are you doing?" ”

Zheng Ren, "Little Marquis, my subordinates don't know what their subordinates have said wrong along the way, which has made you have today's misunderstanding, but no matter what, you shouldn't throw away the letter from the right minister, believe Xue Qian." ”

Hearing this, Xue Chen looked like 'I see', relaxed his curled up body, and tidied up the folds on his clothes.

"I told you about the right minister, there is nothing to discuss, and I don't plan to change my mind, as for Xue Qian......"

Xue Chen looked up at the faint shadow outside, sneered silently, sorted out his expression, Xue Chen said, "Now that only me and my eldest brother are left in the house, naturally we have to help each other to survive." ”

Raising his head to look at Xue Chen in the seat, Zheng Ren had a hard time thinking that Xue Chen said this first.

Doesn't this prove that what he said all the way was in vain! What he tried his best to bring back was not the savior of the house, but the mourner!

"Little Hou Ye ......"

Zheng Ren wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Xue Chen raising his hand.

"If there's anything else you want to say, I'll talk about it tomorrow, I'm too tired today to talk more."

Hearing this, Zheng Ren had no choice but to retreat with hatred, leaving Xue Chen and the maid who was waiting in the room, Xue Chen slowly closed his eyes, and his sensitive ears moved.

During dinner, the house received an edict from the emperor, inviting Xue Chen and Xue Qian to go to the palace tomorrow to give advice, and there was also a meal to entertain the two.

Xue Chen didn't expect this edict to come so quickly, but Xue Qian seemed to have expected it a long time ago, so he happily handed it to Xue Chen, "You see, the emperor attaches great importance to you, as soon as he hears that you are back, he will summon you the next day and give you a banquet." ”

The eunuch who passed the decree smiled and narrowed his eyes into two slits and did not forget to echo, "Isn't it, little marquis!" The emperor specially prepared a dinner for you, and the banquet was all about the people around you, and you will definitely be able to speak freely when the time comes. ”

Taking the edict from Xue Qian's hand, Xue Chen's eyes lit up, and he couldn't hide his excitement and said, "What the eldest brother and father-in-law said is true?" Am I so important? ”

The eunuch nodded hurriedly, "That's natural, the little marquis is the emperor's favorite among the children of these families in the capital, not only the emperor but even the first emperor is rare You are very rare, our palace is up and down, I don't see you unhappy." ”
