"General, general?" The little guy next to him was stunned when he saw him, and whispered in his ear.

Yan Chengque came back to his senses and saw that the sedan chair had turned around and walked far away.

"Go and ask which lady it is." He commanded.

The little servant took the order, and after a while, he brought news: "General, that is the niece of Sun Fushang in the capital, named Sun Shitong, nineteen years old, and has not yet married ......"

"I just asked you to ask which lady it is, I didn't ask you to ask her how old she is and whether she is married." Yan Chengque said.

The little guy scratched his head and laughed a few times.

He also thought that the general fell in love at first sight and fell in love with this Miss Sun.

"By the way, then Sun Fushang also handed over Geng post to the mansion yesterday, general, do you want to take a look?" The little guy thought about it and said again.

Gengti?

It's just that.

Yan Chengque waved his hand, turned around and went back to the house.

He didn't take this matter to heart, but after drinking a cup of tea, he unconsciously thought about it again, and he was really curious.

The woman's eyebrows and eyes are similar to those of Prince Hong, but her charm is completely different.

The faces of the two grandsons flashed alternately in his mind, making him a little suspicious......

"Where is the Geng post sent by Sun Fushang?" He asked the guy next to him.

The little guy said "oh" and said respectfully: "It's in the study." ”

In the past few days, the Geng posts sent by the wealthy businessmen have piled up, but the general has never looked at them, and he doesn't know why he suddenly became interested today, is it because he had a relationship with the Miss Sun family on Chang'an Street before?

The Geng post of the Sun family was pressed to the bottom, and the little guy searched for a long time before finally finding it.

Yan Chengque took it, opened it and looked at it, but it was not Sun Shitong's post, but a woman named Sun Shuer.

"This Sun Shu'er is the daughter of Sun Fushang, I heard that she has clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, and is proficient in piano, chess, poetry and painting." The little guy explained.

If you want to get close to the general's mansion, you naturally have to use the eldest daughter to climb, not a distant niece who is not well-known.

Yan Chengque only glanced at it and put Geng Tie down: "Then whether Sun Shitong lives in Sun Mansion, I want to see me." ”

Sun Shitong lives in a remote courtyard on the outskirts of the city, and when Yan Chengque looked for it, she was holding scissors to build Shengchun flowers in the courtyard.

Yesterday by chance, he did not see the woman's face clearly, today when I looked, I suddenly felt that the eyebrows are like spring mountains, the eyes are like autumn water, and the red cheeks are delicate like flowers......

Looking closely, I don't think it's very similar to that Prince and Princess Hong.

"Miss Xu, you've bought all the things you want." A woman came in from outside, holding a number of boxes, apparently rouge gouache, and a bright red kite.

Yan Chengque's gaze froze unconsciously.

"Xu ...... Miss Sun, who is this? The mother-in-law looked at Yan Chengque suspiciously, and although she changed her words in time, the blurted out title was still heard by Yan Chengque.

"Xu Qingqing, are you Xu Qingqing?" Yan Chengque blurted out.

Sun Shitong was stunned when he heard this, and retreated several times in a panic: "General Yan, you ...... What are you talking about, I'm not Xu Qingqing, I've never heard of this name......"

"You can deceive others, you can't deceive me," Seeing her eyes flickering, Yan Chengque's expression was extremely excited, "If you're not, why don't you dare to look into my eyes?" ”

"General Yan," the mother-in-law on the side hurriedly put down what was in her hand and came forward to persuade, "My young lady has not stepped out of the door since she was a child, and it is natural that she doesn't know what to do when she sees a strange man, please respect yourself, don't bully a powerless woman like this......"

"Where is your young lady?" Yan Chengque turned his eyes to look at the woman.

"It's a Minhua person, and I just arrived in the capital some time ago." The mother-in-law replied fluently.

"Since you are a Minhua person, why do you speak with a Beijing accent?" Yan Chengque asked rhetorically.

The woman was stunned by the question, and her hand had quietly grasped the dagger in her sleeve, although her movements were slight, the killing intent in her eyes had already revealed her mood.

"Don't be afraid, I am an old acquaintance of your young lady, and I won't harm her." Yan Chengque explained.

With his skills, it is not easy to deal with a mere mother-in-law, how can he let this mother-in-law sneak attack him?

Old acquaintances?

The mother-in-law looked at Sun Shitong suspiciously.

Sun Shitong settled down, and asked Yan Chengque: "You say, do you recognize me?" ”

"I'm Yan Gang, Qingqing, do you remember me?" Yan Chengque's eyes were full of hope.

Sun Shitong understood a little in his heart, nodded, and did not refute his words: "It turned out to be you, but it scared me a lot......"

Sure enough, it was her!

Yan Chengque felt as if a boulder had fallen to the ground with a bang, and he looked her up and down carefully: "I heard that there was such a mess in the imperial city, I can't wait to rush back to the capital to find you, but the military affairs are urgent, and I really can't get out...... How did you live in the Sun family's mansion now, how did you get out of the palace, and how did you hide your identity? ”

Sun Shitong smiled reluctantly: "You ask so many questions at once, which sentence should I answer first?" ”

Yan Chengque also smiled: "As long as ...... As long as you're okay, it's cold outside, let's go, I'll go in with you. ”

Sun Shitong glanced at her mother-in-law, who put away the things on the ground and followed closely behind.

Yan Chengque sat down, and his eyes fell on the red and bright kite in his mother-in-law's hand: "After so many years, you still like kites so much, the one I gave you back then ......"

He didn't ask any more.

You don't have to think about it to know that the kite must be long gone.

In troubled times, even human life is as light as mustard, and who cares about those useless things outside the body?

"That kite, in my heart, has never been lost." Sun Shitong said softly.

There was a sincere light in his eyes, and Yan Chengque's heart trembled slightly.

"I heard you're a general now?" She asked.

Yan Chengque nodded: "Yes, after that incident, I changed my name and wandered to Rongjiang alone, I wanted to go to a distant local relative, but I accidentally crashed into the barracks...... I really didn't expect that after so many years, I would be able to see you again, Qingqing, have you been doing well all these years, and what are your plans for the future? ”

"I'm a remnant of the previous dynasty, what can I do? To be able to live in this world is already a great gift from God......" Sun Shitong's eyebrows and eyes were slightly sad.

"Don't say that, with me, I won't let you have anything to do." Yan Chengque hurriedly said.

"Really?" Sun Shitong raised his head and asked me to be pitiful.

"Of course." Yan Chengque nodded heavily, "It's not a way for you to live in this remote courtyard all the time, I will make an idea for you to completely erase your previous identity, if you don't dislike it, you can live in the General's Mansion in the future, and I will ask someone to take care of you." ”

"Staying in the General's Mansion?" Sun Shitong hesitated, "But I have never known the general, so in what capacity should I live in the general's mansion?" ”

Yan Chengque also hesitated: "If you don't dislike it...... I can tell the outside world that you are my cousin whom I haven't seen in a long time. ”
