"I didn't expect that as soon as I came back, I would catch up with such a good day, which is really a coincidence." Hua Qingmo couldn't help but smile when she heard Hua Su's words, and her eyes were fixed on the scene in front of the gate of Ningjun Palace. Immediately, she looked sideways at Hua Xu, who was standing behind her, and gently ordered: "Hua Xu, you go back to the Nine Thousand Years Old Mansion and prepare two identical gifts, one to the Prince De's Mansion and the other to the Ningjun Palace, saying that it is the joy of the full moon of the Lord He Xiaojun." ”

After finishing speaking, Hua Qingmo thought about what Hua Su told her last night, thought for a moment, and then said: "In the past year, things and people in Lin'an City have changed. With so many people getting married, although I have not been present in person, as the daughter of King Ningjun, now that I have returned, I still have to talk about my heart. ”

"Madame's meaning, Hua Xu understands." Hua Xu nodded, and naturally understood the deep meaning of Hua Qingmo's words. After all, her wife is the daughter of King Ningjun, even if she is not in Lin'an City this year, but her status is there, and she has to do some superficial work.

For the past year, she has been staying in the Nine Thousand Years Old Mansion. Although no one in the Nine Thousand Years Old Mansion dared to come and disturb her, her life was much more stable than before. But in the calm and calm, some things are seen more clearly than before, and I also understand the exchange of courtesies between these Houmen palaces, and there is a knife hidden in the smile.

"Madam, Hua Xu will go back to the Nine Thousand Years Old Mansion." Hua Su bowed respectfully and stepped aside to leave.

Hua Qingmo looked at the gift boxes that kept moving into the Ningjun Palace, the corners of her lips slowly raised, and then she called Hua Su closer, whispered a few words in her ear, and asked her to leave.

Subsequently, Hua Qingmo did not immediately enter the Ningjun Palace, but stood in front of the door and looked at the scene in front of her without saying a word. Seeing Hua Qingmo like this, Qinghu couldn't help but take a step forward and asked aloud: "Young master, aren't we going in?" ”

"I haven't been back for so long, and I'm really lucky to catch such a lively day when I come back." Hua Qingmo opened her mouth softly, and her tone was extremely cold. She glanced at the green fox, and there was a slight smile of unknown meaning in her dark eyes. "The mansion must be very lively now, if I enter from here, I must have swept some people's interest, or enter through the side door!"

After Hua Qingmo finished speaking, she returned to the carriage. Qinghu immediately entered the carriage, and asked with a slightly puzzled look: "Young master, will it be a little inappropriate for you to enter the Ningjun Palace" from the side door?" ”

Qinghu really didn't understand Hua Qingmo's actions, and didn't understand why she didn't enter the house from the front door, but from the side door?

It stands to reason that the identity of the young master of her family in Lin'an City is also respectful to others, no matter what the situation, she does not need to avoid anything. But today, in the face of such a scene, she entered through the side door, which really devalued her identity.

"Young master, those people themselves think they are disappointed, why do you care about them?" The more Qinghu thought about it, the more unhappy she felt, although the young master of her family was raised by the Ningjun Palace, but with the identity of the young master, it was not at all something that those people in the Ningjun Mansion could climb. But even so, the young master didn't seem to care about his status at all, just like at this moment.

"Qinghu, I just want to come back to see Yu Qing today, and I don't want to get involved too much in other things." Hua Qingmo replied gently, staring at the blue-purple five-blessing bouquet brocade box on the low table in the carriage. "On the big day of Situ Yuanche's daughter's full moon, I know that it is impossible to be calm and quiet when I think about it. But no matter how big or small, I want to have nothing to do with myself. At least on the second day back, I was able to enjoy some peace. ”

And this, in a certain way, depends on the attention of others, if she enters from the main gate of the Ningjun Palace, it will be difficult not to attract attention. After all, she disappeared in Lin'an City for a year, and I am afraid that many people are very interested in what she did this year. And when she entered through the side door, she told those people that she was just going back to her parents' house today.

Entering the Ningjun Palace, Hua Qingmo walked directly to the north courtyard. According to Hua Xu, before Bai Zixiao left Lin'an City, he arranged for Hua Yuqing to go to the North Courtyard and live in the room where he once lived. And the people around Hua Yuqing were also secretly replaced by people who painted the South Building.

Walking to the gate of the north courtyard, the surrounding qiē was the same as before, almost unchanged. When the guard at the door saw her, he immediately knelt down and saluted: "My subordinates have seen Madame." ”

"Well, get up!" Hua Qingmo responded, and the guards at the door immediately stood up. Immediately, the door of the north courtyard was pushed open.

Entering the courtyard, the faint fragrance of flowers from inside makes people feel like bathed in the sunny March flowers, and the mood is suddenly relaxed and relaxed. The surrounding qiē has not changed in the slightest, the stone tables and stone benches in the courtyard, and the begonia flowers and trees on one side are the same as at the beginning.

"Madam, the fifth young master is practicing martial arts in the open space behind the north courtyard, if Madame wants to see the fifth young master, please go with your subordinates." When the guards in the courtyard saw Hua Qingmo coming, they immediately stepped forward and said loudly. Yesterday, someone came to inform them that the landlord and his wife had returned, and his wife would inevitably come to Ningjun Wangfu to visit the fifth young master in the past two days, so that they could all be vigilant and protect his wife.

Sure enough, their wife came today.

"Lead the way." Hua Qingmo responded gently, and followed the guards in the courtyard to the right of the corridor in the north courtyard. At the end of the hallway, a crescent moon door opened on top of the original white wall.

Passing through the crescent door, there was an open space behind her room.

At this time, Hua Yuqing was standing in the middle of the clearing, about three meters away from him, and there was a man wearing the guard clothes of the Ningjun Palace. They attacked Hua Yuqing with wooden beads, and Hua Yuqing dodged the attack in a panic.

Such a similar scene reminded Hua Qingmo of when Bai Zixiao taught herself, and she was also covered with scars every day. However, the difference is that Bai Zixiao is much more ruthless than these guards.

The attacks from all directions made Hua Yuqing completely unable to dodge, basically dodging a wooden bead and being hit by three wooden beads. Such an attack once or twice is not a big deal, but if it is ten times and a hundred times, an adult person is afraid that he will not be able to bear it, let alone a child who has no internal strength at all.

Standing next to her for a quarter of an hour, Hua Qingmo looked at Hua Yuqing, who was constantly being attacked and fell to the ground, the smile on the corner of her lips was calm like a slowly flowing spring, and she didn't see a trace of abnormality. But her eyes were a little different from usual, and the dark and silent gaze was like a gloomy dark cloud, suppressing what could not be spoken.

"Fifth Young Master, be careful!"

The sudden sound broke the quiet and strange status quo at this time. At this moment, a wooden bead hit Hua Yuqing's right eye like a suddenly broken ice ridge without warning.

Seeing this, Hua Qingmo's right foot quickly touched the ground, and her figure approached Hua Yuqing like a wind. Her figure was as fast as a ghost, and the human gaze could not follow it at all, and the only thing visible was a faint faint purple halo.

"Yuqing, you have grown up a lot." Hua Qingmo looked at the wooden bead between the index finger and middle finger of her right hand, and then looked at Hua Yuqing, and her voice softened for a moment.

The bright yellow splendid flower robe worn by Hua Yuqing was already covered with dust, and her delicate and handsome little face was also intertwined with dust and scars, and there was unspeakable surprise in her dark and bright eyes. He stared at Hua Qingmo for a moment, and then twisted his face in disbelief.

The pain on his face gave Hua Yuqing a sense of reality, he looked at Hua Qingmo in front of him, and suddenly a bright smile like sunshine appeared on his face: "Sister." ”

Hua Yuqing seemed to forget the pain on her body for a moment, and hugged Hua Qingmo hard. It seemed that because she was afraid that Hua Qingmo would suddenly disappear again, Hua Yuqing's arms kept increasing the force.

"Sister, where have you been for so long?" Hua Yuqing's voice was full of complaints, but anyone could hear the joy and happiness in his tone. After all, it is just a child, and the joys, sorrows, and sorrows are very easy to show.

"It's my sister's fault, my sister shouldn't have left you alone after my brother left, it's my sister's fault." Hua Qingmo stretched out her hand and patted Hua Yuqing's back, her voice with a gentleness that is rare in ordinary moments. Now in this world, her blood relatives are only Hua Minzhi, Hua Yuqing, and Mo Mo, as for Chu Youran, in her eyes, she is just her biological mother, just a biological mother.

"If you know your mistakes, you have to change them, sister, you can't leave for so long in the future" Hua Yuqing heard Hua Qingmo's familiar voice, and the smile on her face became more and more bright and sunny. He took a deep breath, and the familiar smell on Hua Qingmo's body made him feel very satisfied: "Sister's taste." ”

Hearing Hua Yuqing's childish words, the smile on the corner of Hua Qingmo's lips softened. She hugged Hua Yuqing softly, without any words, just quietly enjoying the hard-won calm and gentleness at the moment.

After a while, Hua Yuqing let go of Hua Qingmo, looked at the guards standing around, and said, "Four masters, that's all for today, I will make up for today's share tomorrow, and I will definitely not be lazy." ”

After finishing speaking, Hua Yuqing took Hua Qingmo's hand and walked in the direction of the crescent moon gate.

When she arrived at her room, when Hua Yuqing wanted to talk to Hua Qingmo, she saw the dust on Hua Qingmo's lilac brocade dress. Then he looked at the dust on his robe and his extremely unclean hands, and immediately said, "Sister, I'll go to the shower and change clothes first, and you can also go back to the room to change clothes." ”

"Yes, Little Flower Kitty." Hua Qingmo stretched out her hand and flicked Hua Yuqing's forehead, and only returned to her room after Hua Yuqing entered the room.

Her room was cleaned about every day, and it didn't leave a single trace of dust. The décor is almost the same as it was a year ago, with no changes at all. Walking to the edge of the couch, Hua Qingmo looked at the brocade box on the dresser, and then couldn't help but smile: "I haven't come back for a year, and I haven't touched a single qiē here." ”

"It must have been ordered by nine thousand years old!" Qinghu took out a sunset purple and green calyx embroidered blouse from the wardrobe, and a moon-white moire skirt waited for Hua Qingmo to change into.

After changing, Hua Qingmo sat in the room for a while, and then went to Hua Yuqing's room.

When she arrived at the room, Hua Yuqing had already bathed and changed into a cloud-white upturned sky blue bamboo leaf silk robe, and the outside was a sky blue silver dark pattern embroidered armor. He sat at a table with a plate of lotus cakes, a plate of mille-feuille cakes, a plate of lotus root flour osmanthus sugar cakes, and two white and blue-glazed stew cups.

"Sister, my father knew that you were back, so he specially sent someone to bring two cups of blood swallows, and my sister drank them while they were hot." Hua Yuqing said, then moved her own hands and helped Hua Qingmo fill a bowl in front of her.

Hua Qingmo looked at the blood swallow in the bowl, picked up the porcelain spoon on the side, scooped a spoonful and put it to her lips. As soon as she tasted the taste of blood swallows, Hua Qingmo stopped, looked at Hua Yuqing, who was holding blood swallows for herself, and said, "On weekdays, does my father also have someone send it over?" ”

"Well, sometimes it's blood swallows, sometimes it's white swallows, sometimes it's chicken soup, every day my father will send someone to send these things, saying that it's for me to replenish my body."

Hua Yuqing was ready to drink it after it was served, but at this time, Hua Qingmo held his hand and said, "This blood swallow tastes a little wrong, maybe it has been left for a long time and it is moldy, so don't drink it." ”

"Okay, listen to my sister." Hua Yuqing didn't think much about it, and when she heard Hua Qingmo say this, she really thought that there was something wrong with the blood swallow and put down the porcelain bowl.

"Father is really Father!" Looking at the precious and unusually precious blood swallow in the porcelain bowl, Hua Qingmo's voice sounded a little sneering. Hua Bu is really a ruthless person, and he actually attacked Hua Yuqing.

This so-called father really impressed her.
