Xie Qingheng heard him mention the matter of the crown prince, so he restrained his thoughts and said: "I know, my uncle has been busy helping the emperor deal with Jingnan's case these days, I don't want to bother too much, and I will go over to ask for advice when my uncle has some time to spare." ”

The two were talking while walking, and when they were about to arrive at Xinglu Courtyard, Shen Tangxi suddenly asked, "By the way, Qingheng, how is Su Ruan?" ”

Xie Qingheng was stunned for a moment before looking at Shen Tangxi.

Shen Tangxi stopped: "What's wrong?" ”

Xie Qingheng looked at him: "It's not that you don't like Ruan Ruan, why did you suddenly ask about her?" ”

Xie Qingheng still remembered that Shen Tangxi had a deep prejudice against Su Ruan.

He seems to have always disliked Su Ruan, when Liyuan was in the spring, he directly thought of Su Ruan, and saw Su Ruan's hands and feet on Yuwen Liangchen's side.

Later, several times, he also kept reminding him to guard against Su Ruan, and he always felt that Su Ruan had bad intentions towards the Xie family.

Shen Tangxi is stubborn, but Xie Qingheng can't tell him about Jingnan's affairs, especially about the agreement between Su Ruan and Qi Wenfu, as well as the details of Jingnan's affairs at the beginning, without Su Ruan's permission, even if Shen Tangxi is his cousin, these things must not be spread to the outside world.

One is ignorant of the inside story, and the other is bent on protecting.

The two had a dispute over Su Ruan before, and even had a big quarrel.

After that, Shen Tangxi rarely talked about topics related to Su Ruan in front of him, why did he take the initiative to ask about her at this time?

Shen Tangxi smiled bitterly when he heard this:

"I didn't know about your mansion before, and you and your uncle also hid Su Xuanmin's affairs from me."

"Jing Nan's affairs are secret, I don't know the inside story, and Su Ruan always does things that make me feel unbelievable, and in fact, many of the things she does are risky, and if one is not good, it will implicate your house, why don't you suspect that she is here to seek revenge on her uncle?"

"I admit that I was prejudiced against her at that time, but now that the truth is revealed, I know that what she did was just to Zhaoxue for the old case of Jingnan, and I also saw what happened in front of the palace gate that day, even if it was me, I am afraid I can't do it like her, let alone a woman."

"No matter how much prejudice I have against her, I am now gone."

Shen Tangxi looked at Xie Qingheng and said with a serious expression:

"She's your sister, and she's half of my cousin, I heard that she was injured in front of the palace gate that day, isn't it too much to ask?"

"Why are you guarding me like that, like I'm going to do something to her."

Xie Qingheng listened to Shen Tangxi's words, looked at him carefully for a while, and saw that he didn't look like a fake, so he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "How can I guard against you, it's just a little strange." ”

"I said I didn't guard against it."

Shen Tangxi said angrily: "I'm your cousin, can I still harm you?" ”

"We grew up together, it's not as good as you, the younger sister who entered the house halfway, speaking of which, I am prejudiced against her, at least half of the responsibility lies with you, you protect her so everywhere, who can not eat it?"

Xie Qingheng couldn't help but laugh when he heard his jokes: "Okay, it's all my fault, I shouldn't have ignored my cousin, shouldn't I accompany you?" ”

Xie Qingheng smiled.

Shen Tangxi gave him an elbow: "Okay, it's not sour." ”

"But speaking of which, how is that girl now, is her injury better?"

Xie Qingheng shook his head: "I've been kneeling in the ice and snow for so long, how can it be so easy." ”

"During this time, Imperial Physician Wei often came to the house to diagnose and treat her, but listening to Imperial Physician Wei's meaning, it was too early to fully recover, and that kneeling hurt her leg after all, even if she was able to walk, in the future, it would hurt if it was windy and rainy."

Shen Tangxi's face changed: "So serious? ”

Xie Qingheng nodded: "But fortunately, I can still walk on the ground after raising it, so I can only take care of it in the future." ”

Shen Tangxi fell silent when he heard this, and only said slowly after a long time: "It's a pity......"

Xie Qingheng: "Huh? What a pity? ”

Shen Tangxi shook his head: "It's nothing, I mean that her temperament is really different from the woman next to her, and I have never seen anyone harder than her." ”

Xie Qingheng said when she heard this: "It's not that her bones are hard, she just knows what she wants." ”

"Ruan Ruan has a stubborn temperament, and her mind is deeper than ordinary people, what she believes must be done, no one can stop her, and no one can persuade her."

"In front of the palace gate that day, I thought she would not be able to hold on, but who would have thought that she would really be able to wait for the emperor to open the palace gate and do something almost impossible."

How long did Su Ruan kneel that day, Xie Qingheng and they were on the side.

Under the wind and snow, he felt frozen and stiff just by standing in the snow, let alone Su Ruan kneeling in the snow.

He saw those people fall in front of the palace gate one by one, watching the palace gate closed, as if a moat separated the prosperity of the palace from the ice and snow outside, as if it would never be opened, which made people despair.

Xie Qingheng thought that Su Ruan couldn't wait, but all the people around her fell, but she always knelt there.

Even if you are covered in snow, even if your body is shaky.

Even if the mind is blurred, even if there is only one person left in heaven and earth.

She always guarded the tablet, straightened her back, and did not retreat for half a minute.

That scene is enough for Xie Qingheng to remember for a lifetime.

Xie Qingheng said: "Actually, in terms of mental nature, I am far inferior to Ruan Ruan, and you may not be able to compare with her." ”

When Shen Tangxi heard this, he rarely did not refute it, but his expression was in a trance for a moment, as if he also remembered the situation in front of the palace that day.

Xie Qingheng stood for a while before patting Shen Tangxi: "Okay, don't say that there is nothing here, it's so cold outside, hurry up and enter the house, let's talk about it after I get in." ”

Shen Tangxi nodded: "Okay." ”

After the two entered the house, someone sent a carbon basin in, and the two sat opposite each other while laughing and chatted about other topics.

……

Su Ruan was on the other side of the courtyard, sneezing and rubbing his nose.

Xie Huan, who was laughing, stopped: "Ruan Ruan, do you have a cold?" ”

Su Ruan shook his head: "No, it's just a sneeze, don't make a fuss." ”

As she spoke, she suddenly asked, as if she remembered something:

"By the way, what about the orange, why didn't you see it after you came back, where did you go?"

Cheng'er hurriedly said: "I guess I went out to play, I didn't see it early in the morning, and the slave maid will let people look for it later." ”

When Su Ruan heard this, he remembered the great achievements of the orange in the previous life, shook his head and said: "Forget it, don't look for it, that little guy is clever, I guess where to go to squat in the corner, and when it is hungry later, he will know that he will come back to find food to eat." ”
