After dinner at Qin's house, when I came back, the sky was approaching dark, only the two yellow and white silk lanterns in front of the door did not move at all, and the cheeks of the black lacquer door were also yellow and white, like human faces.

Princess Baozhen talked a lot with Qin Hai in the Qin Mansion, discussing politics in the study, talking about children in the hall, and when she arrived at the dinner table, she recalled the situation when the emperor was alive.

"Miss, Second Prince Xu came over and said he wanted to see you."

Ruan Miaoling took off her clothes and was already going to bed, so she went back to her room at night.

"See me now?"

Xu Yuan is not such a thoughtless person, how could he choose this hour...... Ruan Miaoling thought for a moment, put on her embroidered shoes, pulled over her clothes and put them on, turned her head and asked, "Is he outside the door, or in the living room of the south room?" ”

Wen'er came over to help dress, "People are waiting outside the door at this time, and they have to bother people to bring tea and water when they come in, so they simply don't come in." ”

The gatekeeper opened the gate, the hot summer night was not very hot, there was a little cool breeze, Xu Yuan was wearing a relatively thin clothes, and a carriage was parked behind him.

Xuejin put one foot on the car board, and when he saw the door open, he hurriedly jumped down and stood upright.

Ruan Miaoling only saw Xu Yuanying's fair face under the lamp clearly, and asked in a low voice as she walked down the steps, although her voice was not in a hurry, she could hear worry.

"It's so late, is there an emergency?"

"Wait until this hour, I'll take you to meet someone."

Last time, he was bluntly rejected by Ruan Miaoling, Xu Yuan stayed up all night, and the next day he did what he should have done and eaten as usual, and now he is talking to Ruan Miaoling in the same tone as before.

Ruan Miaoling looked back at Wen'er standing at the door, her eyes were full of puzzlement, "Can't you go to see you during the day, my mother is so tired that she sleeps at this time, if you let Wen'er go for instructions, I'm afraid it will be difficult to fall asleep again when I wake up." ”

"Mother......" Xu Yuan coughed and changed his words: "There are many people during the day, and those who follow their feet can't be shaken off, but they don't follow at night, so I came to find you." ”

Ruan Miaoling smiled silently, turned around and asked Wen'er to tell the doorkeeper to keep his mouth, "If my mother knows that I don't sleep in the middle of the night and wanders around with you, you will have to be punished together!" He turned his head and lifted the corner of his skirt and stepped on the bench to get into the carriage.

Xu Yuan shook his head and laughed, and followed.

"I have calculated the days, the princess has to talk to Mrs. Qin, the capital of Qin, when she goes to visit the door, she will come back with a tired face, how can you have time to check your room."

Wen'er sat outside the car and whispered, Xuejin couldn't help but glance at her, and she glared back.

The two of them would feel uncomfortable sitting in the car without talking, at least Xu Yuan was uncomfortable, so he asked if he asked, "How do you feel when you go to Qin's house today?" ”

Speaking of this, Ruan Miaoling couldn't help but sigh and pinched her eyebrows.

Seeing this, Xu Yuan guessed that she had encountered something unpleasant in the Qin family, and she was jealous and disgusted with Qin Jie. "The Qin family treats you badly?"

"No, they're very nice to me, it's just that there are a lot of people, and there are nine of them in the Gongzi pile that I don't know."

Ruan Miaoling didn't want to say it, but Xu Yuan was so excited that she couldn't stop talking.

"I only learned today that the ten sons of the Qin family were not all from Mrs. Qin, and each of them had an aunt...... Such a big family, but I didn't hear the rumors from people outside that the Qin Mansion was restless, and Mrs. Qin was gentle and Huirulan, who asked to see her, I couldn't imagine that she had such great courage to suppress the four aunts. ”

Xu Yuan was surprised, but his thoughts were different from Ruan Miaoling.

Xu Yuan, the housework of the Qin family, rarely heard Qin Jie's mention in the past, and only heard from others that the nine sons in front of their family had similar temperaments to girls, but Qin Jie's personality was different, but it did not affect the relationship between the ten brothers and sisters.

The Xu family only has two sons, him and Xu Heng, and his father can't level a bowl of water, and the ten sons of the Qin family are under the same roof, and there are no rumors of brotherly discord, and they admire Mrs. Qin and the Governor of Qin even more in their chests.

"There are few people like the Governor of Qin in the world, so why bother to be displeased?"

Xu Yuan was stunned, raised his head, and the white and red face under the sheep's horn glass lamp was filled with a smile that he was familiar with, and there were very few people in the world who could understand what he was thinking.

Ruan Miaoling covered half of her face, turned around and rubbed it, and muttered, "Is there anything dirty on your face...... Clearly washed. ”

"No, don't believe it for yourself." Xu Yuan handed over a hand mirror, and his smile had already converged.

"You take this thing with you?" Ruan Miaoling took Xu Yuan's hand suspiciously, and took a picture of the mirror, if there was really no dirt, then Xu Yuan would do whatever she saw her.

Xu Yuan waited for her to finish taking the picture, tugged it into his sleeve, and asked rhetorically, "Don't you often ask questions like this?" ”

Ruan Miaoling glanced at him, "You're not asking." ”

"Yes, I'm not asking, it's Yuan'er, hahaha!" The laughter is hearty and brisk.

Wen'er leaned over to Xuejin, who was catching the car, and asked in a low voice, "What a cold joke, do you think it's funny?" It's just a matter of laughing at your son-in-law, why does my young lady laugh too, it's really incomprehensible. ”

Xuejin looked straight ahead, and after a long time, he said slowly: "This is called fun, laughing is not because of jokes, but because the person who tells the joke makes people happy, and if he wants to laugh, he will naturally laugh." ”

"Oh."

Ask if you seem to understand, why isn't this the case when Lord Qin and Miss are together?

"Here we are." As soon as Xu Yuan's words fell, the wheels really stopped, and he saw him proudly lift the curtain and turn around: "I'm used to walking this road, so I just measured the size." ”

The front door was narrow, Ruan Miaoling took a general look, and the houses near the left side of the alley were so inconspicuous.

Xuejin stepped forward and knocked on the door, and after a while, a boy in blue came to open the door, and when he looked up, he was overjoyed when he saw Xu Yuan, "The adult is finally here, the son has been waiting for a long time, hey, how can there be others?" ”

Xu Yuan touched the little boy's head, "She's not someone else, she came to see your son, go make tea." ”

"I've been brewing several times, and the adults don't come, but just after the fourth brew, the adults came. I'm going to make another pot, I didn't expect any more outsiders to come......"

Wen'er had already remembered the child's xenophobic eyes and actions in his heart, and hummed: "A child is so unruly, what is the master like." ”

"Aren't you ashamed to compete with children, let's go back to sleep early when we see someone."

She couldn't stand it, Ruan Miaoling could see it, the corners of her mouth sank involuntarily, and she didn't feel sleepy, so she could barely hold on and follow Xu Yuan.

"I thought you weren't coming, why are you still accompanied by a beautiful woman, no wonder it's later than usual."

Ruan Miaoling saw a man in a moon-white silk shirt walk out of the door, his voice was a male voice, but his face was the same face she had ever seen.

Xu Yuan glanced at the chessboard and the two white porcelain chess boxes placed in the hall, "Bring an acquaintance to see you tonight, and I won't play chess." ”

"Who am I—"

Qian'er felt that the atmosphere was not quite right, how could the young lady's tone sound so similar to the sad lady in the courtyard of the deep house?
