Chapter 200: The Xia Family's Daughter
Mengxia has arrived, and Beiyan's days are getting hotter and hotter.
"This year, it seems to be hotter than ever."
On the edge of the pond in the backyard of Xiafu, the maid Qianyun was holding a fan in her hand and swaying slightly.
Looking up, the sun was really scorching.
Beside her, sitting on a stone was the daughter of Xia Ran, Xia Shuying, the courtier.
The shadow is sparse and the water is shallow, and the dark fragrance floats in the dusk of the moon.
Even in the most lazy afternoon, she can't relax at all.
Qianyun looked left and right, except for the guards guarding in the distance, there was no one else.
She bent down and leaned in and whispered.
"Miss, Madame is also taking a nap at this time, no one will see it, just lean on top of me and rest for a while."
Xia Shuying shook her head gently, her posture was dignified, and she did not allow the slightest slackness.
It's just that between the eyebrows, there is a hidden sorrow.
This sadness clings to his face, but it makes a pair of sheared eyes particularly aggrieved, which makes people feel pity.
This backyard pond is the coolest place in the entire summer house.
The reason why she chose this place is also because of her father's explanation.
In the past few days, his father Xia Ran has always been called to the palace.
The emperor wants to select women of appropriate age from the families of civil and military officials and choose them to enter the palace, and there are many rumors in the market.
And she, together with Zhang Xian, the eldest daughter of the imperial historian, is the most likely candidate to enter the palace this time.
And my father's explanation is that he must be dignified at all times and walk around the backyard more.
In this way, if the emperor sends someone to come to see him, it is easy to be selected.
But in Xia Shuying's heart, there are 10,000 people who don't want to be selected.
But the order of the parents, the words of the matchmaker.
How can she disobey?
"Qianyun, you can help me to walk in the garden."
She stretched out her hand, and her slender jade fingers put on Qianyun's arm, and the half-inch skin exposed at her wrist was snow-white and transparent.
Living in the capital of the Northern Yan Emperor is already a lot more restrictive.
Now because of the emperor's sudden interest, it has become more and more restrained.
After a long time, she didn't know if she was Xia Shuying or the daughter of the Xia family.
Seeing that she seemed to be getting more and more sad, Qianyun hurriedly said.
"Miss, the begonias and apricot blossoms in the yard are in full bloom, why don't I pick some and make fruits for Miss to eat?"
And the pink of the begonia flowers is also suitable for rouge gouache.
Although it is a very laborious thing, if it can make Xia Shuying happier, it is nothing.
She has followed Xia Shuying since she was a child, and the two naturally have a very deep relationship.
Xia Shuying hesitated for a moment, and the jade step paused slightly, as if he saw that there was one more person on the side of the corner door on the east side.
The man was not afraid even if he looked at her, and he bowed his knees slightly and saluted her.
Looking at the dress, it doesn't look like a new guy.
Probably, it's what my father said, the characters sent by the palace to see her.
She bowed her head slightly, bowed her knees as well, and brushed her face with a smile.
When she looked up again, there was no one to be seen.
"Miss, what are you looking at?"
Just now, Qianyun was thinking about what utensils to use to hold rouge this time, and she had to go out and make some custom.
After this distraction, I didn't see the people at the door of the East Corner.
Xia Shuying shook her head, a pair of willow eyebrows seemed to be frowning, but there was no longer the previous sorrow.
"It's nothing, let's go, just now you said that you want to make pastries with apricot blossoms, I suddenly want to eat the horseshoe cake on Tian'an Street, why don't you ask someone to buy some later."
"Okay!" Qianyun hurriedly agreed, smiling.
In just a moment, Xia Shuying seemed to be a different person.
But as long as she is happy, she is happy.
"Miss watch your step."
Xia Shuying lifted the skirt of the ground slightly, stepped over a raised stone, and landed lightly.
A goose yellow floor-length skirt, coupled with such an action, makes her delicate and cute.
Around the end of the evening, the team of Thousand Cities arrived at the Border Inn.
There was a fight only the day before yesterday, but today it is still full of messes.
In particular, half of the burned materials have turned into black ash, and half of them are no longer usable.
It's just that no one from the Red Luo Sect came to deal with it, and the things were left in their place, and the post station owner didn't know what to do.
Because he gave Qin Changhuan a route in advance, they arrived two hours earlier than him.
When I went upstairs to arrange the guest room, I happened to meet Qin Changhuan and Moon Shadow.
Because of the relationship, they didn't say hello, but when they looked at each other, their eyes clearly told a different emotion.
They wanted to go to the backyard to see what was going on.
Although the materials have been burned, there is no guarantee that the Hall of Eternal Life will also suffer.
Not only Moon Shadow, but Qin Changhuan was also worried about Ruan Ning.
"Don't worry, even if you can't beat it, you can still escape, right?"
Qin Changhuan turned his head to look at the moon shadow and said with relief.
Moon Shadow was noncommittal, only supporting her, and looked in the direction of the destroyed supplies not far away.
Because Qin Changhuan was also afraid that someone would recognize him, he wore a veil, so that his eyes were more focused.
There were too many burned.
There are not only silk and satin, as well as some animal furs, but also many things that are special products of Beiyan, and this burn is over.
"Go and see." She said.
Moon Shadow let her go and stepped forward to look for clues.
I just searched for a long time, but I still didn't get anything.
Just when she was about to give up and her heart collapsed, a figure suddenly appeared in front of her.
"Are you looking for me?"
It's Nguyen Ninh.
He was alive, and well, and had not left the Border Station.
For some reason, there was a sudden impulse in her heart, and she ran forward with open arms.
Under Qin Changhuan's gaze, the two hugged each other tightly.
Qin Changhuan knew that he didn't need her to be there anymore, so he turned around and went back the way he came.
"Alright."
Ruan Ning patted Moon Shadow on the back.
"Am I not here? That day, it was a narrow victory, but I wasn't hurt. ”
Although Cui Zhangshi, who initiated the ruthless attack, is full of loopholes, he is also stubborn.
Moon Shadow lifted a heart and pulled his arm to look at it from top to bottom.
It wasn't until she was sure he hadn't lied to herself that her lips curled slightly.
A pair of apricot eyes glared at the boss, as if he had not yet recovered from the shock.
"Here, burned like this, I'm naturally worried about you, are you really okay?"
She had obviously checked it all over, and she still had to ask.
Ruan Ning knew that she had come to the border to fight against the Red Luo Sect and had made her very worried.
She rushed here and saw the mess here, and naturally her heart was even more frightened.
It was he who worried her.
"I'm fine, I'm really fine, it's me who is not good, so I'm worried."
He is affectionate, rare affectionate.
He has never been a good talker, especially when it comes to love.
Even if he said that now, it was really felt from the inside out.
Moon Shadow was deeply moved.
Although he doesn't speak well, he often moves her very much.
"It's fine."
She looked away, smiled and lowered her eyebrows slightly.
Ruan Ning didn't know what to do to make her no longer shy, but she staggered her body.
"You, you're hungry, I'll take you to eat something, there's a bun here that's pretty good."
Moon Shadow nodded slowly.
The two walked one after the other, each embarrassed towards the bun shop.
However, Ruan Ning thought privately that Moon Shadow's appearance when she was shy was extremely good-looking.
That kind of face is slightly flushed with red clouds, and it is shy, and it looks like a treasure in this world.
At this point, he can be regarded as understanding why his brother Ruan An always likes to bully a girl when he is a child.
It turned out that I wanted to see her shy and angry appearance.
It's just that they didn't get to be in one place later.
He thought to himself that it was because the girl was really angry that he didn't have a good result with his brother Ruan An.
So he definitely didn't want to follow in his brother's footsteps.
He genuinely wanted Moon Shadow to stay with him.
Lifetime.
Love, pity, love, make her happy, enough.
Sunset, dusk.
I don't see the sun, but I see the end of the sky, and the layers of light colors are very beautiful.
From red brick orange, then to a light white.
Qin Changhuan stood by the window, looking at the stunning scenery outside, and his heart was relaxed.
Yunyi's injuries were almost healed, and there were few rooms in the border land, so they lived in one.
Now seeing that Qin Changhuan was so powerful, he quietly approached a little closer.
When he saw the sky from afar, he forgot God.
Qin Changhuan turned around and was about to have a cup of tea at this time, but he saw her standing behind him, but he was really startled.
"Yunyi, when did you stand behind me!"
Her face was full of fear, and cold sweat broke out on her back.
She patted her chest, and it took a moment for her to feel better.
"I'm going to Beiyan in five days, and I don't know what happened to my brother."
Yunyi stepped forward as if apologizing and gently rubbed her shoulder.
"I was lying down a few days ago, and I heard Moon Shadow say that this time Miss is the daughter of Lord Zhang, Zhang Xianpin?"
Qin Changhuan nodded.
Yun Yi seemed to think for a while, and said for a while, "I seem to have heard of that young lady." ”
"It's extremely arrogant.,And it's a fun-loving character.,I'm afraid it's not easy to control.。
In the past, Chongyuejiu was a wild girl who was fostered in the countryside, and no one had ever seen it, so it was easy to control.
But now, she is the daughter of a heavy minister's family, and she has been pampered by her side since she was a child.
I don't know why my brother wanted to find her such a face.
But since Qin Changan was looking for it, there must be his thoughts.
She just needs an identity to do things, but there is really no need to care about the side.
"I heard that the night market in this border land is quite lively, let's go and take a look."
Yunyi saw that she was silent, so she made a suggestion.
And, she said very solemnly.
"I promise that I will never leave Miss alone again like last time."
Qin Changhuan sneered, mentioning the last time, she remembered the little boy.
I don't know if he's having fun in the courtyard now.
Those children are here, presumably, the government can give them a good life.
At least, she still believes in Tang Ruoxu.
"In that case, let's go."
She got up and picked up the fan, it was such a border place, and it was very hot at night.
"Miss, you must have someone you want to see at this moment, right?"
Yun Yi smiled suddenly, his eyes were full of ambiguity.
Qin Changhuan didn't understand, could it be that she told herself to go out, did she have ulterior motives?
