Chapter 373: The Past of Xiliang (3)
Qin Hao took two steps towards the courtyard, and then stopped stiffly, remembering what the Qin clan had said after returning from the palace.
With a sigh, he turned to leave, but in an instant, the sound of the piano turned, and then turned into a resentment, like a cry, as if he was complaining about his own sadness.
How could such a soft intestine not move people's hearts, Qin Hao couldn't control it anymore, and seemed to be bewitched and went towards the courtyard.
It's not that the Qin family didn't hear the sound of the piano, although she was angry, but after all, this woman was sent by Prince Kang's mansion, and she sent her to the palace by herself, which had already offended the little prince's mother and son to some extent, and if she punished her again, it would not look good on her face.
Thinking that she would leave tomorrow, her heart was also relieved, but after all, she couldn't rest assured, and called her maidservant and said: "You go to find the master, and you say that the official duties are heavy, please rest early."
The servant girl answered, and trotted out.
At this time, Qin Hao was standing outside the courtyard, the little man guarding the door, seeing that he was just standing, and had no intention of going in, he was also a little hesitant to step forward, but they were ordered by the Qin family.
Suddenly, the little maid saw the maid beside the Qin family coming from the direction of the main courtyard, and his heart was relieved, so he dared to step forward and say: "Master, it's getting late, and the slave saw that Miss Yu'er came to look for you, presumably the lady remembered the master-you-"
Qin Hao turned around, and sure enough, he saw Yu'er walking in his direction, and at the same time, the sound of the piano in the courtyard also stopped abruptly, as if he could hear the sound outside, but the woman in the courtyard did not react.
The little guy was secretly annoyed that it was his turn to do such a hot errand, if he couldn't stop Qin Hao today, he was afraid that he would be betrayed tomorrow, thinking of Qin's usual temper, he couldn't help but shrink his neck, and said with a flattering smile: "Master, you-"
Although Qin Hao is a military general, he is not stupid, and he can naturally see what people think in their hearts, or for so many years, the entire Taiwei Mansion only knows Mrs. Qin, but does not know him Qin Hao.
The anger in his heart burned like a wildfire in the prairie fire, his eyes were red, and he said in a deep voice: "Get out-"
Before the little guy could react, he was kicked away by Qin Hao, and he screamed in pain.
And Yu'er saw that Qin Hao seemed to want to push open the courtyard door, but she didn't care much, and raised her voice: "Master, Madame asked the slave maid to come to find you-"
Qin Hao's hand trembled slightly, as if he wanted to ignore Yu'er's voice.
Yu'er saw that he was not slowing down, so she knew what he was thinking, her eyes rolled slightly, and she said: "Master, Madame said that you will enter the palace to see the Queen Mother tomorrow - you should rest earlier todayββ"
Although her tone was a little hurried, she paused slightly on the words "entering the palace and the queen mother", and sure enough, Qin Hao's hand seemed to hang down a little weakly, and he looked at the door that was within reach with some unwillingness, and the fire in his heart was extinguished little by little.
Yu'er saw that he had stopped beating the woman in the courtyard, and he was also relieved, and glanced at the little girl who was moaning in pain on the side, and the two left.
The night wrapped up silently, Qin Hao sighed, and then turned around to leave, when he heard a beautiful voice in the courtyard sound: "Taiwei Qin, but you want to listen to Xing'er play another song?" β
Qin Hao's feet seemed to be bewitched, he wanted to refuse, but he heard his voice with anticipation and regret: "Okay." β
After hearing the footsteps for a long time, it turned out that Xing'er was also standing behind the door, Qin Hao suddenly thought, if he really pushed the door in, was it at this time-
However, no matter how many charming thoughts there were, there was no support, he found a vacant place, lifted his robe and sat down, and then he heard the voice of the beautiful woman and the poignant and lingering voice: "It turns out that the purple and red are all over the place, and they are all paid to the broken wells and decayed like this. Flying in the morning and twilight, clouds and clouds, rain and wind, smoke and waves painting boats, Jinping people look at this Shaoguang cheap. β
It turned out to be a lingering and sympathetic Peony Pavilion, and the regrets and worries of the people in the song and the gentle sound of the piano almost broke Qin Hao's heart.
At the end of the song, both of them were silent, and suddenly Qin Hao seemed to have made a decision in his heart, and walked quickly in the direction of the courtyard gate, and the voice of Xing'er in the courtyard said hoarsely: "Lord Qin thinks twice, if you cross this gate, it will be a catastrophe." β
Qin Hao looked a little anxious and said: "I am a captain, with heavy troops in my hands, do I still have to be constrained by a harem woman?" β
The people in the courtyard seemed to be pondering, and it didn't take long for the courtyard door to squeak open from the inside, Qin Hao saw that Xing'er was wearing a thin gauze skirt, and there was not even a big coat on his body, so he hurriedly took off his mink fur and put it on her, and said with distress: "Why don't you wear more?" β
Xing'er raised her eyes and looked at Qin Hao, there was a flash of crystal in her eyes, her eyes were extremely beautiful, really bright as stars, she smiled, it seemed that even the night wind brought spring, she smiled: "Lord Qin, Xing'er thank you for your love, if you can, Xing'er is willing to serve by the adult's side forever, but the adult treats Xing'er so well, Xing'er can't harm the adult, late at night, please go back." β
I don't know why, Qin Hao suddenly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Xing'er say this, but said on his face: "Xing'er, if you are willing to stay by my side, I will enter the palace tomorrow to see the Queen Mother-"
Xing'er shook her head and said: "Madame can't tolerate Xing'er, and the Queen Mother doesn't want Xing'er to be by the adult's side, although Xing'er is not a slave, but her status is humble, and she is not worthy of an adult-"
Qin Hao saw that the beauty was sad, and his hands unconsciously covered Xing'er's somewhat weak shoulders, Xing'er lowered his eyes, a trace of impatience and disgust flashed in his eyes, but his tone was choked and repeated: "My lord, please go back." β
Then he turned around and closed the door.
And Qin Hao could only watch the door cross between him and Xing'er, but he didn't have the courage to push it open, and the night was quiet again, if it weren't for the chill coming from his body, he would even feel like he was in a dream.
There was even Fang Cai Xing'er's body temperature in his palm, he sighed, and suddenly he didn't know where he should go, go back to Qin's courtyard, and when he thought of Xing'er's tearful eyes and Qin's flying appearance, he was bored.
When I went back to the bedroom alone, I was inevitably a little lonely, so I simply went out of the house to have some fun.
Qin Hao just left the Qin Mansion, and someone immediately went to return to the Qin family, Yu'er said with some concern: "Madam, the master left the mansion so late, should I send someone to find it?" β
Qin Shi chuckled and said, "He doesn't dare to enter that slut's courtyard today, what else can he do?" β
However, the Qin clan didn't know that it was today's change, like throwing a small pebble in the middle of the lake, looking ordinary, but there were ripples layer after layer.
Qin Hao didn't return overnight, and at the same time, in the post station, the room of the little prince Ning Yu was also empty all night.
Early the next morning, the Qin family took Xing'er into the palace early, Xing'er was still dressed yesterday, Qin smiled and said: "You, you are blessed, the Queen Mother has taken a fancy to you, as long as you serve the Queen Mother well, the future is much brighter than in the Taiwei Mansion." β
Xing'er just looked at her nose and nose, and didn't have much joy on her face, she just said dutifully: "Xing'er Mrs. Xie Qin-"
Qin's face was full of arrogance, and he glanced at Yu'er next to him and said, "The master is back?" β
Yu'er looked at Xing'er and saw that she was just staring at her embroidered shoes, as if she didn't care, so she could only say in a deep voice: "The master was drinking in Drunken Yuxuan last night, and he only came back early in the morning, and now he has rested." β
Drunken Yuxuan, but the famous Qinlou Chu Pavilion in the capital, I heard that the Kabuki inside, each talent is exquisite, and it is favored by many dignitaries.
Qin snorted and said mockingly: "It seems that the master listened to the music all night last night, but I just don't know if the songs sung by the singers of Drunken Yuxuan are as good as the songs sung by the Xing'er girls?" β
Xing'er knew that the Qin clan must have been angry with herself because of what happened last night, but her goal had been achieved, and there was no need to entangle with such an ignorant woman, so she simply went with her.
The Qin family seemed to have punched the cotton, and the whole person was a little unhappy, and just as he wanted to say something, he saw Qin Hao, who had returned to the house in the morning, and entered the courtyard wearing a court uniform.
However, he changed his soft appearance in the past, and there was also a trace of momentum in his actions, Qin only felt that this man who had been with him for decades seemed to have changed, and that change was very subtle, difficult to understand, but also unsettling.
She got up and walked in front of Qin Hao, and said with a smile: "Why did the master get up?" I heard the butler say, "You only to-"
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Qin Hao's wave of his hand, he glanced coldly at Xing'er who was kneeling on the ground, and then opened his eyes and said, "Didn't you say that you were going to enter the palace to see the Queen Mother today, why haven't you left yet?" β
Qin was choked for a moment, and then smiled for a while: "I was about to go out, but the master is also going to enter the palace?" β
Qin Hao nodded, cold and alienated, the Qin family only thought that it was because of Xing'er's matter, but Xing'er immediately entered the palace, no matter how much Qin Hao annoyed himself, he would still forgive himself in the end as before.
After entering the palace, the Qin family found that the old princess was also there, and she was talking with the Empress Dowager Xi, and she was a little embarrassed on her face, after all, this star was also from Prince Kang's mansion.
However, the old princess was very calm and calm, and she couldn't even see that she knew Xing'er.
The Qin family peeked at the Empress Dowager Xi, and saw that the Empress Dowager Xi was no different, and his heart was slightly relieved, the Qin family was originally a hot and outgoing character, and after a while, it made the Empress Dowager Xi and the old princess laugh again and again.
