Qingfeng looked at Shen Qian, who was sitting at the table and drinking tea calmly, his face was full of puzzlement, "Childe, didn't we go to the city gate today to wait just so that we could follow, why did you come back later?" Isn't that in vain? ”

Shen Qian took a sip of tea, glanced at Qing Feng, looked him up and down, and looked Qing Feng very uncomfortable when he saw that he was stiff, he touched his head and asked with a stammer, "What...... What's wrong? Childe, what are you looking at me like this? ”

Shen Qian chuckled and said, "I see you, even though you are already twenty years old, why don't you understand anything?" Hey, I've been by your son-in-law for so many years, even if you can't learn, you should understand it, right? ”

Qingfeng was more and more confused by what he said, he frowned, and said with a bitter face: "Childe, don't let me play dumb riddles, it's not that you don't know, I'm just a rough person, where do you understand these twists and turns, you can let me catch people and do things, let me think about these, I can't." ”

Shen Qian laughed, and stopped teasing him, so he said: "I want to indulge in this today, deliberately showing weakness in front of Meng Xiaoran to make her soft-hearted, women's hearts are made of water, once she starts to feel guilty and sympathetic, I have a chance, and at the same time, I also bury a thorn in Lu Ziqing's heart, I don't believe it, I stimulate him repeatedly like this, he will be able to stand it, and it will always explode." ”

Qing Feng didn't seem to understand, but after hearing him say this, he finally understood a little, he looked at Shen Qian and asked cautiously, "Childe, are you doing this too much...... Then Lu Ziqing and Miss Meng are really in love, you have to break up people, what if you let Miss Meng know in the future that she will blame you? ”

Shen Qian glanced at him coldly, "If you don't say it, if I don't say it, how will she know?" Or are you going to betray me? Qing Feng was seen as a clever man, and immediately shook his head to show his loyalty, "Childe, how could I betray you?" I have been by my child's side since I was a child, and you know your heart very well, and no one will betray you if I betray you! ”

Shen Qian saw that he was anxious and reassured: "Okay, okay, I'm just saying, you don't care, I know that I did something that was not done by a gentleman, but Lu Ziqing was sincere to her, judging from the previous two incidents, he has been using Xiao Ran, do you think such a person is a good match?" ”

Qingfeng shook his head, "That Lu Ziqing is too scheming, and their identities are also suspicious, so a group of people are hiding in the deep mountains and old forests, and they don't know what to do?" Besides, he took advantage of Miss Meng's position in Gongzi's heart to deliberately spread false news, isn't it just to provoke the relationship between you and the Seventh Prince, and the son of the victim is sad and vomits blood, if it weren't for what Brother Chen said later, we might really think that Miss Meng is dead, but even so, Gongzi has also suffered a lot, he has obviously accepted your benefits, went to our money bank to withdraw so much silver, and even fed you poison, it is really hateful. ”

Shen Qian smiled and said, "So, do you still think that your son-in-law and I are not moral enough to do this?" I'm saving Xiaoran and getting her rid of that dangerous hypocrite as soon as possible. Shen Qian's eyes became more determined as he spoke, and when he said this, not only to Qingfeng, but also to himself, such a reason made his heart more and more firm.

After a winter rain, the weather became colder and colder, not long after that hunt, Dongfang Shuo sent someone to send a piece of white fox skin over, Gu Yu looked at a whole piece of white and flawless skin, her face was happy, she touched it lightly, "Girl, this skin is really good, the weather is cold, the slave maid uses it to make a cloak for the girl, right?" Make a scarf or sleeve cage for the extra one. ”

Although Meng Xiaoran knew how to use this skin, she couldn't do needlework, so she nodded and said, "Just do what you say, and I'll leave this matter to you." ”

Gu Yu smiled and nodded, held the white fox fur in his hand, regarded it as a treasure, and Chunyue on the side smiled and said: "The girl is looking for Gu Yu to do it for you, it can be regarded as finding the right person, her female celebrity is the best one among the four of us, and it will be good for the girl when the time comes." ”

Gu Yu glanced at her with disgust, smiling a little shyly, Meng Xiaoran smiled, "Okay, if you do a good job, I will be rewarded at that time." ”

Gu Yu was overjoyed when she heard this, and Chunyue pretended to pout unwillingly, "The girl will reward Gu Yu, what about us?" We don't have her good skills, but if the girl has a good head, we are naturally willing to bother to do it. ”

Meng Xiaoran has gradually understood the temperament of these people these days here, Gu Yu is dignified and generous, Chunyue is delicate and lovely, and there are two second-class maids, Qiu Yan and Xia Yi, both of whom are lively and cute little beauties, but they are all young, and the two big girls are only fifteen or sixteen years old, which is the age of flowers.

Meng Xiaoran also felt comfortable looking at it, thinking about herself, she would be twenty-four years old after the New Year, if anyone knew her real age, she would be scared, this age was an out-and-out old leftover girl in ancient times.

Looking at these young girls, Meng Xiaoran felt that she was getting old, she smiled and said, "Everyone has it, don't worry, there will be a reward." ”

When Chunyue heard this, she immediately smiled and thanked her, "Then the slave has thanked the girl for all the sisters." ”

Meng Xiaoran smiled and didn't speak again, she wasn't the kind of person who could get along with people, and now it was good to be able to talk and laugh with them, but she didn't plan to talk to them, because she always felt that all this was just temporary, and maybe she would leave soon.

Winter came quickly, when the first snow came, Meng Xiaoran was still a little caught off guard, the house burned the earth dragon, warm as spring, but she was actually not afraid of the cold, she felt a little stuffy in the house, so she walked to the window and pushed the window open, a cold wind blew in, bringing a burst of freshness, and also made her much more comfortable.

There is still a faint fragrance of plum blossoms in the air, Meng Xiaoran knows that a plum blossom tree has been planted in the yard, which has bloomed, which reminds her of the time when she was in the Xiangfu, at that time she was cautious, for fear that one wrong step would be life-threatening, at that time it was also winter, plum blossoms were in full bloom, or she came up with a mold in order to gain Chen's trust, and she was brilliant at the plum blossom banquet.

It's only been a year now, everything is already wrong, Chen Yingyue is dead, dead in front of herself, and Xiaocui, the only one in the Prime Minister's Mansion who has made her warm, she is also dead, Meng Xiaoran hasn't thought of Xiaocui for a long time, and when she thought about it, her eyes turned red again in an instant.

Xiaocui, are you okay in heaven? My sister has avenged you, and you can live happily on it with peace of mind.

Meng Xiaoran wiped the tears from his face, closed the window, and blew the cold wind for a long time, and his face was a little numb.

These days, she has been nesting in this courtyard, rarely taking half a step, and she doesn't know anything about the situation outside, she doesn't know that now the old emperor Dongfang Yi has fallen ill, and he has not been to the court for more than half a month, so let the seventh prince temporarily manage the government.

The Seventh Prince finally got everything he wanted, but as soon as he accepted the government, he found that everything was not so simple, he didn't expect the treasury to be so empty, he finally understood why his father was so eyeing the Shen Mansion, the treasury was so empty, and the imperial merchant Shen family had a lot of money, how could the high-ranking emperor endure it?

And the Seventh Prince had already had a gap with Shen Qian before, Shen Qian arrested his most trusted guard, Feng Yu, Feng Yu finally escaped, and told himself about Shen Qian's torture of him, it turned out that he had never believed in himself, so why did he care about the love of his brothers?

Anyway, in the master's heart, what he cares about the most is Shen Qian's disciple, and he is just entrusted by someone to have to accept it, he knows at a glance who is light and who is heavy, he also knows that the master came to Yujing City some time ago, but he didn't go to him, he knows, I'm afraid that the master and his old man won't want to see him.

Since this is the case, my promise at the beginning does not count, besides, if you want to become an emperor, you must be willing to give up, Shen Qian, I have to be sorry.

After the snow fell, the courtyard became quiet for a moment, Gu Yu walked in with hot tea, and saw Meng Xiaoran sitting at the table in a daze, the window was still open, she immediately stepped forward to put the tray down and closed the window again.

"Girl, it's so cold outside, don't open the window again, hurry up and drink some hot tea." Gu Yu poured a cup of hot tea and put it in front of Meng Xiaoran, Meng Xiaoran smiled, took a sip of the teacup, looked at her and asked, "Is the son back?" ”

Here, everyone called Dongfang Shuo Gongzi, and Meng Xiaoran didn't dare to call his name, for fear of leaking his mouth, so he followed everyone to call him Gongzi.

Gu Yu looked at her and smiled, "Childe just came back, and he went to the study again, girl, Childe hasn't come back for a few days, this will finally come back, since you miss him, why don't you go and take a look?" ”

Meng Xiaoran was slightly stunned by what she said, could it be that her mind was so obvious? Can even these girls see it?

Gu Yu saw that she didn't speak, thinking that she was shy, so she continued: "Girl, the small kitchen just happened to stew soup, and the son went all the way, why don't you send a cup of hot soup over?" ”

Meng Xiaoran raised his head and met Shanggu Yu's eyes full of expectation, and couldn't help but smile, it seems that he has been staying here, these girls are in a hurry, so they follow them, so they nodded.

When Gu Yu heard this, she immediately showed joy, and hurriedly ran out to make arrangements, Chunyue also walked in to clean up for her, and put on the cloak that Gu Yu had made for her before, with a snow-white fur collar and a fiery red fabric, in fact, this color is not what Meng Xiaoran likes, but she looks surprisingly good after wearing such a color.

Gu Yu and Chunyue were carrying a food box, and the other helped Meng Xiaoran to walk out, a thick layer of snow had accumulated on the ground outside, Meng Xiaoran was wearing a fiery red cloak and walking in the world wrapped in silver, which looked extraordinarily good-looking, red and white, strong contrast, perhaps this is Meng Xiaoran's characteristics, her appearance is as delicate as fire, and her temperament is cold and noble.
