Qi Jing and Qin Xun turned right from the ferry and walked all the way to the south, gradually moving away from the small market at the ferry, and only occasionally passed by one or two passers-by.

"Who are you seeing, you want to go to such a remote place, boss, are we going to do a big ticket?" Qin Xun leaned in front of Qi Jing, and there was no serious joke on his lips.

Qi Jing lightly tapped at his head: "Don't make trouble, when you see someone later, you have to pretend to be well-behaved, that's a special elder, don't let him have a bad impression of you." ”

Qin Xun had a headache when he heard that he saw his elders, and he had a headache when he heard that he was asked to pretend to be a little obedient to please the elders, so he casually picked a big stone, and sat down and played with Laipi: "Don't go, you can't walk!" ”

"What are you...... That's it, let you rest. The carriage stopped when it was delivered to the ferry, and it was clear that he had not taken a few steps, Qi Jing connived at him, stopped and came to his side, wanting to sit or not, and hesitated for a moment or stood beside him.

Qin Xun pulled the hem of his clothes and spread it beside him, patted him twice, and said, "Come and sit." "Qi Jing has a slight cleanliness habit, he hasn't forgotten it.

"Don't, you take care of your clothes, and remember to dust off when you get up later."

"That's disgusting, so you sit on my lap?"

Qi Jing couldn't cry or laugh: "Say it nonsense, what kind of system." ”

Qin Xun didn't care: "What's this, didn't you often let me sit on your lap when I was a child?" I'm not delicate and frail, can I still sit on my legs if I sit on you? ”

"It's not bad...... You're sixteen years old. Qi Jing didn't know how many times he had tactfully reminded him in recent years that they had passed the age when they could be unscrupulously intimate, but Qin Xun always turned a deaf ear, and he always didn't bother to say heavy things and teach him a lesson.

"What do you call me?" Qin Xun frowned, with obvious displeasure on his face.

“…… Don't worry too much about these little things. ”

"What's the matter, there's no one here, what do you call me?" Qin Xun's eyes narrowed into a beautiful arc, and he pulled one of his sleeves, with a very unrelenting posture.

"Okay, Ah Xun." Qi Jing was helpless, and with his other hand went back to cover his sleeve that was tightly pulled by him, and seeing that he didn't mean to let go, he had to call again, "Ah Xun, you are sixteen years old." "When you grow up, stop fooling around.

"Yes, I'm sixteen years old, and I've been here for six years, six years!" Qin Xun let go of him with satisfaction, his narrowed eyes smiled and bent into a crescent moon, stretched out his hand to compare a number, as if he didn't hear the meaning of his words, he leaned directly on him, his shoulders against his waist, his head rubbed against his chest, raised one leg and put a stone on the hem of the clothes that had just been spread out under his legs, the folding fan was held in his arms with both hands, and the whole person was lazily paralyzed with his legs apart.

"Don't ......" He leaned on himself with most of the weight of his body, Qi Jing was afraid that he would fall and did not dare to move, so he only raised one hand and pressed it on his shoulder, pushing it was not, not pushing it.

"Cousin." Qin Xun called him softly.

Qi Jing's hand on his shoulder stiffened, and he was reluctant to push him again.

Don't look at Qin Xun has always called him cousin cousin, in fact, there is no blood relationship between the two of them, Qi Jing's mother Concubine Shu and Qin Xun's mother have a good personal relationship, Qin Xun and Qi Jing always play together when they were young, Concubine Shu has the heart to take care of Qin Xun, so she let Qin Xun call her aunt, and it stands to reason that he should naturally call Qi Jing his cousin.

The ancients began to write when they were adults, and when they arrived in today's Great Qi, it will be much earlier, which is related to the Qi Gaozu who loves to read.

It is not so much that Qi Gaozu loves to read, but that he is actually uneducated. Gaozu started as a rough martial artist, all with developed limbs in the former Yin Dynasty all the way to the general's position, and then later relied on the think tank around him to give advice and destroy Yin Jianqi, his lack of culture is well known, so after becoming the emperor, in order not to make people laugh and begin to make up for the culture he lacks, perennial books do not leave his hand, and his speech must quote scriptures.

No one dares to laugh at Gaozu for being uneducated, but he can't boast against his will that he is educated, and I'm afraid that Gaozu himself won't believe it, so Gaozu's evaluation in the world was replaced by "uneducated" by "liking reading".

After reading some books, the so-called application of what he has learned, Gao Zu wants to show off when he has nothing to do, such as changing the names of places and rivers, and then naming the children of his own and the princes and ministers close to him. It was a great honor for the emperor to give the name, no one dared to dislike it, let alone say no, all of them were grateful in their mouths, Gaozu got interesting, and he was even more happy to do it.

In order to cater to the preferences of the ancestors, the young people themselves or the elders in the family give the age of the table word a little bit earlier, and now it is normal for the child in his early tens to get the word table, and then pay attention to the family, the child was just born or only a few years old when the word has been played, if it is still the elegant celebrity or the elder of high morality personally gave the word is the same very dignified talking material.

Qi Jing's word return to the city is the word he gave his name when he was just born, Qin Xun's word is slight, and his mother gave him when he was six years old when he should go to the imperial library to study.

The name is a private name, once the word is called, in addition to parents and close elders can call their name, others will call their words to show respect, calling their name is disrespectful, and the relationship is very close.

When Qin Xun didn't start writing before he was six years old, Qi Jing called him the nickname A Xun, and when Qin Xun started to use the word slightly, he changed his words according to etiquette, who knew that the first time he called Qin Xun, he was unhappy to cry.

The children who are eligible to be sent to study in the Imperial Library are either royal nobles or children of officials above the first rank, and the Imperial Library is divided into sub-gardens and women's gardens according to gender; From the first product downwards, the children of wealthy merchants with some fame in Chang'an, and the outstanding children selected from all over the country to come to Beijing can only enter Taixue, and in Taixue, ten years old and weak crown are respectively used as the standard age to divide kindergarten and Shaoyuan, Shaoyuan and Changyuan.

Therefore, the little companions in the Imperial Library who have been trained since childhood have never seen such children who don't care about the noise, and they are silent and dare not approach. The gentlemen are also worried, this little ancestor from the emperor to the family, all parties are so pampered, except for the elders in his family, especially his mother's iron lady's children, who dare to scold and dare to beat, no one else dares to teach him too much, and it is not good to alarm the Taifu just for the crying of a child, the little gentlemen have to coax hard.

Fortunately, in addition to Qin Xun, the general's mother who has been fighting outside all the year round, there is also a Royal Highness the Third Prince of Qi in the capital who can control this little ancestor, which really saves the gentlemen a lot of trouble.

Qin Xun went to the Imperial Library to study on the first day, and almost lifted the roof of the Imperial Library because of his own title, and the seven-year-old Qi Jing was also worried, but he accepted the etiquette and righteousness of being a prince since he was a child, and he would never follow him to mess around with him in order to coax Qin Xun, and immediately told him the rules and etiquette in this name with a serious face. Qin Xun was happy to listen to him reason, but he said that Cousin Guicheng didn't like him, Cousin Guicheng was different, he was okay, Cousin Guicheng was going to treat him like others, and he cried even more fiercely.

Qi Jing had a headache, even if he could vaguely figure out in his heart that this guy was just pretending to be a scoundrel, but if he refused to stop him howling like this, it was not a way, so he had to whisper in his ear that he could continue to do the same in private, but he must be obedient and obedient outside, otherwise his cousin Guicheng would really not like him and be different from him. Qin Xun immediately put away his crying, tears and snot smeared Qi Jing's body, hugged him and reluctantly nodded in agreement.

The gentlemen breathed a sigh of relief, and after that, as long as the spoiled little demon king had all kinds of signs of trouble, they all hurriedly went to the third prince for help, completely forgetting that the third prince was only a child who was only one year older than the little demon king.

Qi Jing promised Qin Xun like that, most of the time he saved the mind that he would be able to understand the rules when he was still young, and wanted to stabilize him for the time being, who knew that the older he was, the more he didn't understand the rules, not only did he continue to call his childhood nickname, but he also gradually dishonestly called him "Returning to the City" and "Returning to the City Cousin", I don't know when I liked to call him by his name Qi Jing, even more so after coming to Pingzhou.

Qi Jing's truth has also been said, and he is fierce, but Qin Xun doesn't remember how many rules, and he is good at coquettish kung fu, every time Qi Jing's words are a little heavier and his face sinks a little, he looks at him with dark blue eyes blinking and wet, and he sees that Qi Jing's face is defeated in a moment, and his heart is just right, he is obedient in front of people, and he will let him in private.

And Qin Xun is used to calling him by his name, usually when he is wronged, or coquettish, or begging for mercy, or when he asks for him, he softly and flatteringly calls him cousin.

As soon as he called his cousin, Qi Jing relented, and Qin Xun ate his weakness and tried it repeatedly.

Haven't I gotten too used to him over the years? Qi Jing pondered.

The sleeves of his shirt were pulled a few times, Qi Jing lowered his head, and saw Qin Xun looking at him with a pair of harmless soft eyes from humans and animals.

"Cousin." He called softly again.

Qi Jing sighed in his heart, it's just that, it's okay to get used to him.

"Cousin, I want to go home." Afraid that he would misunderstand, Qin Xun emphasized again, "I want to go back to Chang'an." ”

"Why, isn't Pingzhou bad?" Qi Jing's hand that was originally holding his shoulder unconsciously moved to the top of his head, gently stroking the young man's soft black hair.

"Pingzhou is good, but Chang'an is good, Chang'an is good for everything, Chang'an still has a cousin." The young man closed his eyes slightly, and the cat generally catered to Qi Jing's hand stroking the top of his head, which was very comfortable.

"What nonsense again." He only thought that Qin Xun was a childish coquettish, and couldn't help laughing at him, "You came to Pingzhou when you were ten years old, do you remember what Chang'an is like, just talking about Chang'an here?" But everyone says that Jiangnan is good, why can't you stay? ”

"'Everyone says that Jiangnan is good, and tourists are only old in Jiangnan', right? Ah, it's really touting Jiangnan as a fairyland on earth. Jiangnan is good, but how many strangers really want to stay here until they are old? The world says that Dai Ma Wangbei Fox died on the first hill, if it is not a last resort, who wants to live in a foreign land? Whether others want to or not, I don't want to, I'm tired of living in Pingzhou, and I want to go back to Chang'an. ”

Qi Jing himself often left Chang'an temporarily to avoid the limelight, and understood the thoughts of Qin Xun, who was sent to Pingzhou for similar reasons as himself, and knew early on that he was restless and would not stay here for long.

Qi Jing's qualifications are top-notch among the princes in today's world, which is not entirely a good thing.

I don't know what's wrong with it today, the eldest son of the emperor has passed the weak crown, he has not yet set up the prince and crowned the king, and several sons are still the princes. There was once a courtier who asked for the crown prince, which made Long Yan displeased, and the emperor's words meant that he was in the prime of life and the dragon was healthy, and it was not too late to discuss this matter later.

There is nothing wrong with that, today is only forty and three, and it is indeed the prime of life, but the prince has not been established for a long time, and there is gradually a vague speculation in the court, and Dao Jinshang may not plan to establish a long heir, but want to observe the respective abilities of his sons, and choose the best, such as the excellent third prince......

In recent years, Qi Jing's edge is too strong, and the emperor does attach great importance to this third son, and his words and deeds have the meaning of cultivating him as a prince, but he never makes it clear that he is the prince, which is not a very good thing for Qi Jing who is not a grandson at the moment, so he often goes out to avoid grace in the name of travel, and visits Qin Xun by the way.

Teenage years is the period of great growth and change of teenagers, Qi Jing himself is one by one, and he also sees the teenagers he often visits one by one, he is tall and handsome, and his little face, which was round like a girl when he was young, gradually highlights the edges and corners, and his mind is becoming deeper and deeper.

He watched the young man with a malicious vent in the Pingzhou School Hall, smiling and offending people, trying to stop him and persuade him, but he was so distressed that he was reluctant to talk about him.

He knew he wasn't happy.

From the time he was sent to Pingzhou, or even earlier when he was still in Chang'an, he had a lot of unhappiness in his heart at a young age.

"Returning to the city, I want to go back to Chang'an." Qin Xun said this for the third time, and this time he called his words.

Qi Jing was silent.

This is the first time Qin Xun has called him Qi Jing for so many years. I don't know if I'm gradually getting used to him calling him by his name, but when I heard him change his serious name, Qi Jing didn't say anything.
