Sensing that the carriage had stopped, Qin Xuan couldn't help but be a little puzzled, and was about to lift the curtain of the carriage door to take a look, when he heard Xing Honglin's voice outside the carriage. "Childe, the father and daughter of He Yuanwai came to see them off, and they are now in front of the car."

Qin Xuan was slightly stunned, thinking that he and He Xingjian had a good relationship, and he didn't go to say goodbye, so he consciously took care of his losses, lifted the door curtain, jumped out of the carriage, and strode up to meet him.

Walking in front of He Xingjian, Qin Xuan said apologetically: "He Yuanwai, I have been in Yuhang for several months, and I thank He Yuanwai for taking care of him. Now His Majesty has issued an order to urgently recruit to enter Beijing, so he has not gone to say goodbye, please don't be surprised! ”

The corners of He Xingjian's mouth curved slightly, touched his chin and short beard, and chuckled: "Gongzi Qin doesn't need to say such kind words, although you and I haven't known each other for a long time, the old man has already regarded Gongzi Qin as a close friend." Today, let's not talk about it anymore, let the old man and his daughter give Gongzi Qin a ride! ”

Hearing this, he chuckled and couldn't help but feel a little sorry for He Xingjian, nodded subconsciously, and said with his head bowed: "He Yuanwai's words, I am deeply ashamed, He Yuanwai's feelings for him are also quite gratifying, there is such a friend as He Yuanwai, and I have no regrets in this life!" ”

When Qin Xuan and He Xingjian were chatting, they inadvertently caught a glimpse of He Ning, who had changed into his daughter's clothes, tall and tall, no wonder a woman dressed as a man could be fake, wearing a verdant long skirt, showing dignified and elegant, black hair like lacquer, complexion like jade, eyes like immersed in water, exuding an indescribable temperament between a smile and a smile, like a budding peony flower, beautiful but not demonic, glamorous but not vulgar, making people can't bear to leave.

Sensing that Qin Xuan had been staring at him, He Ning's cheeks unconsciously flushed with a flush. Gently biting her tender cherry lips a few times, she said coquettishly: "Little girl, thank you Qin Gongzi!" ”

"Huh?" When Qin Xuan heard this, he couldn't help frowning, and asked suspiciously, "Miss He, where did Xie start?" ”

He Ning breathed lightly, his face flushed slightly. instantly turned into a flush, and only after a long time did he whisper: "Thank you Gongzi Qin for refusing my father's intention!" ”

He Ning's face shone with a breathtaking luster, and his delicate lips were closed one by one, exuding a gentle and fragrant aura, which made Qin Xuan regret his previous rejection of He Xingjian's proposal. However, Qin Xuan was not confused, he knew the measure, and said with a slight smile: "It's just a gesture, Miss He doesn't have to worry about it!" In the future, you can slowly look for the husband you like, and I believe that He Yuanwai will not be obstructed. Of course. Check it for you. It's still inevitable! ”

In the end, Hening is still a daughter in the boudoir. Qin Xuan's mention of the word "husband" couldn't help but remind her of her father's previous proposal, and she looked even more shy and lowered her head. I'm embarrassed to speak again.

After chatting for a while, Qin Xuan and the others said goodbye to He Xingjian's father and daughter, drove away, and left Yuhang......

Watching Qin Xuan's carriage drift away, He Xingjian smiled bitterly, shook his head slightly, touched his chin and short beard, and sighed lightly. "Hey, Qin Xuan's future is limitless! Full of splendor, and treat people sincerely. "Between words. couldn't help but glance at He Ning. "And because my father heard that Qin Xuan treated his wife very well. As a father, I wanted to match you with a matchmaker, but it backfired, and I wanted to find such a suitable husband. I'm afraid it's not easy! ”

Hearing this, He Ning couldn't help but cast his eyes far away at the carriage that had almost disappeared, muttering something in his mouth, not knowing what he was muttering softly......

In the carriage, Qin Xuan put his arm around Rui'er and said slowly: "Anyway, there was a literati and a friend wandering on the street, bored, so the literati said to his friend: 'See the proprietress of the rouge shop, I can make her laugh with one word, and I can make her make trouble with another word!'" His friend didn't believe it, so he bet on a table of wine. I saw the literati walk to the door of the shop, respectfully salute the shopkeeper dog, and shout: 'Dad! The proprietress was stunned for a moment, then covered her mouth and laughed! ”

It turned out that she had been in a hurry, and she was bored, so Rui'er ran into Qin Xuan's arms and begged Qin Xuan to tell a story. Hearing this, Rui'er covered her stomach and laughed: "Haha-this literati is so funny, he actually calls a dog a father!" ”

Qin Xuan smiled slightly, looking a little proud. "Huh, isn't that funny? More exciting later! After a pause, Qin Xuan continued: "Who knew that the literati then walked into the rouge shop, bowed to the proprietress and shouted: 'Mother! ’”

"Haha-uncle, the drum sound you talked about is really funny, talk about another one!" Rui'er laughed wildly a few times, and begged again. The little stories told by Qin Xuan were all heard in later generations, naturally each one was more exciting than the other, and Rui'er was unwilling to let Qin Xuan stop when she heard it, and even Qian Ruyu, who had always paid great attention to her demeanor, covered her lips lightly and chuckled a few times.

Qin Xuan didn't say anything more, remembering that Xing Honglin had said before that he would rush to Chang'an today, so he lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked out. Sure enough, the tall Chang'an City Gate is already faintly visible. Thinking that he could finally get rid of the bumps of the carriage, he said excitedly: "It's time to Chang'an!" ”

Hearing this, Qian Ruyu also straightened up her delicate body, looked out a few times along the window, and said softly: "Chang'an City is still like this, I don't know if my uncle and aunt are okay now......"

Qin Xuan couldn't help but look sideways at Qian Ruyu, Zhang Lao and Du Huizhen were Qin Xuan's elders, Qian Ruyu could respect and care so much, Qin Xuan was very pleased, chuckled, and said gently: "Yu'er is really virtuous, but there is no need to worry, she has already arrived in Chang'an City, and we will meet in a while, and then you will talk to your aunt in Haosheng!" ”

A few carriages walked into Chang'an City without stopping, and walked directly to Qin Xuan's mansion in Chang'an without stopping. Jumping out of the carriage, Qin Xuan looked at the familiar and somewhat unfamiliar gatehouse, took a deep breath, and walked towards the mansion.

After the janitor Zhao Lao caught a glimpse of Qin Xuan, he was slightly stunned, and then hurriedly stepped forward. "Childe, you're back!"

"Well, Old Zhao, the house is good!"

"Okay, everything is fine, I'll go and inform everyone!" After Zhao Lao finished speaking, without waiting for Qin Xuan to respond, he trotted all the way into the mansion.

Looking at Zhao Lao's hunched back, the corners of Qin Xuan's mouth couldn't help but bend slightly, and he said in his heart: "It seems that my popularity in the Tang Dynasty is still good!" Then he walked into the house with Qian Ruyu and others. After walking a few steps, he saw Zhang Lao and Du Huizhen coming side by side. Zhang Lao is still the same, with a gentle complexion, and he habitually strokes his goat's whiskers. Du Huizhen also looks good and is full of energy.

Before Qin Xuan could speak, Rui'er behind him fell on Zhang Lao and cried, "Grandpa, I miss you so much!" ”

Qin Xuan smiled slightly, and said, "Uncle and aunt!" ”

Zhang Lao pulled Rui'er, stepped forward and patted Qin Xuan's arm, and said with a smile: "You must be tired of beating Yuhang to drive back to Chang'an, go wash first, and then talk slowly later!" ”

Qin Xuan nodded and did not speak. It was Qian Ruyu and Du Juan who stepped forward to hold Du Huizhen and laughed. Between men and men, there is no need to say too much, just one look, you can understand each other's meaning. And between women and women, it is as if there is endless words.

After greeting a few words with several people in the family, Qin Xuan prepared to take a bath and rest. Fang was about to leave, and caught a glimpse of Li Zizheng on the side looking at him from time to time, opening his mouth, and closing it again, as if he had something to say. Seeing this, Qin Xuan walked directly to Li Zizheng's illness, and asked with a smile: "Does Zizheng have something to say?" ”

Li Zizheng nodded and said, "Son, the prime minister of the house has sent someone to pass the word, and as soon as you return to Beijing, you will go to the house immediately, saying that there is something important to discuss!" ”

"Huh? Fang Xuanling is in such a hurry to find me, is there something serious? Thinking of this, Qin Xuan immediately said to Zhang Lao and the others, and then took Li Zizheng out of the house in a hurry and went straight to the house.

Fang Li, the janitor of the house, naturally recognized Qin Xuan. Seeing Qin Xuan coming quickly, he was slightly stunned, and then hurriedly stepped forward. "Master Qin, my master has instructed, if you come, you don't need to pass it on, just go to the study!"

Qin Xuan smiled slightly, nodded, and walked directly towards Fang Xuanling's study with Fang Li.

In the study, Fang Xuanling was sitting upright on a chair, holding a folding book, and reading thoughtfully. Qin Xuan took a step forward and bowed his hand: "Xiaguan Qin Xuan has seen the room!" Qin Xuan spoke, with a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth, and inadvertently caught a glimpse of Fang Xuanling holding a copy of "Zhou Yi" in his hand, and couldn't help but be a little puzzled.

Fang Xuanling raised his head when he heard the sound, saw that it was Qin Xuan, and threw the folded book in his hand on the desk. Hurriedly got up, walked around the desk, stretched out his hand to pat Qin Xuan's arm, looked up and down, and then laughed and said, "It's worthy of Master Qin, more and more stable!" In other words, you did something so beautiful in Hangzhou, so that the old man couldn't help but praise you! ”

Qin Xuan heard Fang Xuanling say the word "Master Qin", and said in a loud voice: "Fang Xiang, don't make fun of the lower officials anymore, Master Qin will never dare to be it, dare not be it!" While speaking, he glanced at Fang Xuanling, and saw that Fang Xuanling's face was slightly displeased, so he changed his words and said, "That...... Don't be angry, the little nephew is also anxious! ”

Hearing Qin Xuan change his name to be "little nephew", Fang Xuanling turned to smile and said: "That's it, when you are with the old man, don't call yourself a lower official, only a virtuous nephew and an old man!" While speaking, he pulled Qin Xuan to sit on the Hu chair on the side and asked, "Virtuous nephew, tell me about Hangzhou with the old man, how did you strategize and turn things around?" ”

After chatting for a long time, Qin Xuan changed the topic and said, "Fang Xiang, have you been studying "Zhou Yi" recently? ”

Hearing this, Fang Xuanling straightened his face directly, and said angrily: "It's not because of you, a virtuous nephew?" ”

"Me?"

"Yes, did the virtuous nephew forget the folding book that he asked the old man to pass on to His Majesty?"

Qin Xuan suddenly remembered that when he left Kyoto and went to Yuhang, he did write a folding book to Li Shimin, thinking of what he had written, he hurriedly said: "Is it because of the second daughter of the martial family?" ”
