Qing'er stood up and greeted a few people with a smile, "Why are you all here?" After seeing the baby, I was in a good mood, and my unconscious tone was much more relaxed. Xue Yun's gaze quickly glanced at her cheeks and then moved away, as if unintentionally, "It's nothing, come and see the baby." "I heard Rong Yu say what Qing'er said about yesterday's situation in Zhuyuan, he was really not at ease, and several elder brothers and Rong Yu were also not at ease, so they came with him.
"Big brother, can you name the baby?"
"I've discussed it with Lan'er, and I'll give the baby a single word 'Qing', Xue Qing." Xue Yun leaned down to look at the baby and whispered: "Xue Qing, you also agree!" Isn't it! ”
"Big brother!" I really don't know what to say at this moment, and I don't seem to need to say anything, how can I not understand what Xue Yun means, how can I not understand the meaning of 'Qing', sometimes the friendship is really strong, the feelings are really strong, and the heart is really fragile!
Xue Yun stretched out his hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of Qing'er's eyes: "Brother Qing, he was born thanks to you, let him be filial to you when he grows up, don't cry, you cry so much that your eldest brother's heart hurts, he is your first nephew!" Is it good-looking? ”
"Good-looking, Xiao Xue Qing is the first beautiful man in our Qing Dynasty!" There were tears in his eyes, but there was already a smile on his face, he wiped away his tears and looked down at the villain and said, "Little Xue Qing, uncle will take you to the other side of the sea, to England, to Rome, to many, many countries, okay?" ”
"Qing'er, even if you attacked me back then, and you lost on the road that didn't travel thousands of miles, you don't have to punish me like this! You are too ruthless to take my son to another country so that I can't see him! Xue Yun said with a smile. Hearing Qing'er's words, those people were dumbfounded, he didn't do this here, these people were going to spend it in panic next!
"Huh? Didn't we say we'd go together? Big brother, what's wrong with you? Qing'er didn't understand a little, didn't she say it a long time ago, why did the eldest brother seem to be unaware, and then looked at the eldest brother and saw that he was giving himself a look. Alas, it's because of these brothers!
"No, when are you going to go?" Xue Yun smiled bitterly, he was really not good at acting, in order to prevent a few elder brothers from thinking about Brother Qing again, he could only cooperate with Brother Qing.
"Next year, the road is too far, I'm afraid that Xiao Xue Qing won't be able to bear it now. But as soon as possible, my grandfather and Grandpa Qin are getting older and older, and I'm afraid they won't be able to bear it! I've been waiting for this day for too long, I can't wait. ”
"Wait! Are you going to go with your whole family? Grandpa knows? Does my grandfather agree? What about Amma? Also agree? Rong Yu's face changed, and he looked sideways at a few elder brothers, just like him, everyone's faces changed, the difference was that the ninth elder brother and the thirteenth elder brother looked at Qing'er, while the eighth elder brother and the tenth elder brother looked at the ninth elder brother.
"If the whole family goes, if you don't go, neither will Ama and her aunt."
Rong Yu was so angry that he laughed: "Only you and your grandfather go, when will you come back?" "It's impossible to look at it, but to put it so seriously, this sister is getting more and more naughty!
"Alas! What are you laughing at? I've already planned to leave next summer or fall, and it's undecided when I'll come back, about five, ten, twenty years later, or I won't be back. Hu Qing pouted. Overseas, it's so far away, who knows what's going on, how can I say the exact return date.
"Does Grandpa know about your plans? Is he in favor? Rong Yu was more determined.
"Of course I know, of course I approve of it!" Why doesn't my brother understand it! This plan was originally my grandfather's decision!
"You are dreaming here, you! You're not drafted anymore? Rong Yu patted Qing'er's head, and said that a few elder brothers also eased up, yes, she still has to be drafted! Then this plan is not destined to be unrealized!
"What kind of draft, why still use the draft, brother, I don't need a draft! Didn't Grandpa and Amma tell you? If it weren't for Xiao Xue Qing's fingers, Qing'er would really want to slap her brother.
"What? You don't have to draft anymore? How did I not know? Because of what? "Rong Yu really hasn't heard anyone mention it, and he doesn't believe it. In fact, Hu Zhongzheng and Dong E's seventy were suspicious of the emperor's promise, so they didn't say it to this Rong Yu, and they didn't dare to pour cold water on Qing'er.
"Shhh, be quiet, don't wake up the baby, the emperor promised me, I have a deal with the emperor." These brothers are stupid, this is like Huang Ama's style, and it is also like Qing'er's style.
"Really? What is the deal? "Rong Yu is a little curious, can Qing'er make a deal with the emperor? The brothers also looked at her curiously, and Xue Yun, the only one who knew the truth, smiled silently.
Qing'er glanced at the expectant eyes of the elder brother and elder brother, and said apologetically: "I can't say it!" This is my secret to the emperor! The elder brothers immediately became weak, and the ninth elder brother sighed and complained in his heart: Huang Ama, what are you going to do! You've killed me!
"What's wrong with you?" Qing'er glanced at everyone, whether she was drafted or not didn't have much to do with them, right? Isn't the draft meant to enrich the harem? How did she know that the selection was not only to enrich the harem, but also to marry the princes and princes!
"No, nothing." A few elder brothers don't know why she is so excited and wants to leave Daqing so much? Is it that good overseas?
"Nothing!" Yin Yu bred up to deal with her.
"Big brother, have you decided who you want to replace you? Don't have a bunch of us waiting for you then, hehe. Qing'er explained it clearly, and when she saw Xue Yun nodding her head and agreeing, she was relieved with satisfaction. When I talk about going overseas, I'm very excited.
After the meal, the eighth, ninth, and thirteenth elder brothers returned to Beijing first. Qing'er stayed in the Cao Gang. At this time, she sat beside Shen Lan's bed, teasing Xue Qing on the bed. "Sister Lan, Xue Qing's eyes are so clear."
"Qing'er, do you think the emperor will let you go?" Shen Lan brushed her hair for Qing'er and asked worriedly.
"Huh? Why do you ask? You don't have any jokes. Raising her head, she looked at Shen Lan's worried eyes, and Qing'er concentrated.
"I always feel unsure. You are so good, the emperor will not let you go easily, don't you say? ”
"But there's a deal between us!" Qing'er was also a little unsure.
"Have you forgotten the fortune told you by Master Huikong?" Shen Lan shook her head and whispered.
"Sister Lan, do you believe in fate? I don't believe it! Master Huikong said to me: Your destiny has already been activated, and you are destined to be a member of the heavenly family, and it is already doomed. I don't believe him. Qing'er learned the tone of Master Huikong, and pursed her lips after speaking.
"Don't think about it, it's time to draft in less than a year anyway, you try not to let the emperor see you in the past few months."
"No! The emperor asked me to go to the palace for the Mid-Autumn Festival. Qing'er smiled bitterly.
"The Mid-Autumn Festival is a day for family reunions, Qing'er, why did the emperor let you go to the palace, didn't he count you as a family when he did this?"
"No, no." Qing'er waved her hand and said loudly, and then immediately lowered her head and patted Xue Qing, "Baby, don't be scared, don't be scared, uncle didn't scare you, hehe." ”
"Then you find an excuse not to go, can you succeed?"
"Do you know who he sent to pick me up? One is my elder brother and the other is the thirteenth elder brother. The emperor already knew that Thirteen was my senior brother, and he expected that I would not let the two of them suffer for me. This emperor is really ruthless! What a cunning! Qing'er was so angry that she pounded the bed.
"Let's take one step at a time, ah! Let's find another way! ”
"Well, that's all there is to it."
"Senior brother, let me go back and see my grandfather first, okay? Senior brother! Qing'er begged Yinxiang in the car, and he was escorted back all the way.
"I'm sorry, Qing'er, I dare not disobey the emperor's orders. You'd better just do it! Yinxiang was unmoved.
"But I'll have to go back and change my clothes and wash up."
"You go to my house to wash up later, the clothes are not in the car! Then come with us to see Huang Amma. Yinxiang insisted.
"What for?" Deflated, the man leaned back in his seat: how did he really take her as a prisoner.
"What for?" Yin Xiang and Rong Yu, who were sitting opposite, looked at her inexplicably: "What are you talking about?" ”
"There are still a few days before the Mid-Autumn Festival! Why do you have to enter the palace now! Besides, I spent the Mid-Autumn Festival in the palace, and my grandfather was going to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival alone. ”
"Don't worry! I will arrange for Rong Yu to rest and accompany my grandfather during the Mid-Autumn Festival, don't worry, ah! ”
"Your Emperor Ama is really excessive!"
"Qing'er, it's you too much now!" Rong Yu hurriedly glanced at Thirteen and then turned his face to teach Qing'er, Yinxiang couldn't help but shake his head and smile when he saw that he was coy, and there was no serious element in his tone.
"That's it!" Muttered again, pouting and not looking at them.
"Alright, you can hang a jar of wine on your mouth. Qing'er, was the score you gave me before made by my master? Yinxiang remembered this.
"Yes, it was done by the two of us masters." As he spoke, his expression was gloomy again.
"Qing'er, what is the first rule of the Hu family?" Yinxiang hurriedly pulled away from the topic.
"I'm going to tell you what to do. I'm angry. Qing'er pouted! I understood what he meant, but when I thought of entering the palace, I felt uncomfortable.
"Then tell my brother, I'm also a member of the Hu family, but I don't know that the Hu family has family rules! Tell my brother, ah, good sister! Rong Yu received Thirteen's eyes, and approached Qing'er to ask for him.
"I'll tell you for my brother's sake, but don't tell that person."
"What that person, don't you mean me! You forgot that I was your senior brother! ”
"What brother! It's not like a junior sister at all. ”
"I'm wronged, I'll fight for you, I don't believe you asked Rong Yu, but Huang Ama said: Send Qing'er into the palace immediately after returning to Beijing, don't let her run away. I'll let you go to my house to wash up! If the emperor knew about it, maybe he would beat me up. Yinxiang learned Huang Ama's tone and pretended to be pitiful.
"Humph! It's so pitiful to say. That's how you Amma would hit you on the board! ”
"Then tell Senior Brother. Good sister. ”
"If you tell you, you will agree to a request from me in the future."
"Qing'er, you really know how to do business! Okay, I'll give you a jade pendant as a voucher like the fourth brother. Reaching out, he took off the jade pendant on his waist and handed it over.
"Well, let me tell you, the first rule of the Hu family is: betray the Hu family and die! It's up to me to do it myself! ”
"Ruthless enough, who decided?" The corners of Yinxiang's lips pulled a smile, but his face turned cold, remembering that there are many servants in the Hu family, if there is no ruthless restraint, it is difficult to guarantee that someone will fall, it is really not easy to think that he is a woman in his teens who leads the Hu family, what will happen in the future? It would not be a good thing if she could really leave the Qing Dynasty, but why did the thought of her leaving hurt so much?
"I'll do it." Hu Qing said lightly, remembering Master Chen Ziang, when he promulgated the family rules, he stood beside him, and at that time, there was always this person who was also a teacher and friend around him to help him, but now, there is no news of him.
"It can't be your dream!" Rong Yu has really never seen such a girl, she is dead, she is not taboo at all.
"I decided it when I was eight years old." He raised his face and said solemnly: "Brother, I am the young master of the Hu family." ”
Rong Yu stopped talking, Qing'er had decided his fate as the young master of the Hu family since the day he was taken away by his grandfather, and he was bound to shoulder this responsibility.
"Have you ever executed a rebel with your own hands?" Yinxiang was a little worried.
"Not yet, I hope never to, and if there is, it's my failure!"
Qing'er, I hope you don't have the day when your hands are stained with blood. Yinxiang glanced at Qing'er, and then looked up at Rong Yu, the two of them collided with each other, and already knew the words in each other's hearts: Let's do our best to protect her!
