A moment later, the Jiang family's courtyard.

Qiu Jinzhu walked into the courtyard where her cousin Qiu Yulan lived with trepidation.

"Why are you here?" Qiu Yulan, who was wearing a homely dress, took a silk fan with an ivory handle in her hand, pointed to her nearest seat for her to sit, and asked straight to the point, "This will spread all over the world, why don't you find a way with your father and princess, what are you doing here?" ”

“…… The fifth sister also heard about it? Although Qiu Jinzhu learned from her before going to Qingwu in private, but Qiu Yulan and Jiang Yashuang are already husband and wife, but she has become a family shame and despised by everyone, at this moment I still feel a fever on my face, and I was stunned for a while before saying, "Please save me, Fifth Sister!" ”

Speaking of this, Xiuyan was secretly pulled by Xiuyan behind him before he remembered to kneel, knelt too quickly and almost fell, and held his hand on the ground to stabilize - Xiuyan, who was sent by Princess Yang to help mediate, looked at her appearance, sighed secretly, and knelt down: "I beg the lord of the five counties to help the lord of the six counties this time for the sake of flesh and blood!" The princess is willing to make cattle and horses for you......"

"I don't lack cows and horses, what do you want her to do as a cow and a horse?" Qiu Yulan smiled mockingly, and patted Qiu Jinzhu on the shoulder with a fan, "Get up and speak, this rumor is boiling, just like that, everyone on Emperor Mountain knows about it." If you delay for a while, I'm afraid that the Queen Mother will send someone to pass you on, why don't you tell me what happened quickly, so that I can give you an idea?! ”

Hearing this tone, she was willing to take care of it, and Qiu Jinzhu and Xiuyan were very surprised when they were overjoyed - this lord of the five counties had never spoken so well before! Not to mention such a big trouble, it used to be some trivial things, because the two sides had grievances, Qiu Yulan also had to seize the opportunity to toss before agreeing!

There must be a reason for things to be abnormal, Qiu Jinzhu and Xiuyan subconsciously thought that this rumor spread so suddenly and so quickly, even if the Puyang Mansion was undisguised on the surface, but the two palaces had no grudges before - the Xiao family has always given people the impression of kindness since the old lady Qin, and has never done anything mean. This time, he directly revealed the identity of Qiu Jinzhu, and he did not hesitate to form a mortal enmity with Xihe Wangfu!

Could it be ......

"If you want to be deceived by others, it's okay, then Qingwu - his father was in a cold situation, and no one in the family raised him back then, but my maternal grandfather cultivated and raised him as his own flesh and blood, and finally pit my maternal grandfather's family, not to mention, even my father ...... it."

Knowing that they promised too much this time, they would definitely suspect it - there is no way, the queen party is now in urgent need of an entry point for counterattack, how can Qiu Yulan have the time to rub against them? As soon as his mind turned, he suddenly sneered, stared at the fan in his hand and said slowly, "The so-called father must have a son, you also believe in such a person!" I don't know how you can be so stupid! ”

That's right! The maiden family in Qiu Yulan's mind is the Ruan family at all, when did he treat the Xihe Mansion as his own?

was so sneered at by her, Qiu Jinzhu and Xiuyan were suspicious, and sighed secretly: I almost forgot that this fellow family has a big enmity!

"Uncle was cold to him?" It was the first time Qiu Jinzhu heard the news, and couldn't help blurting out, "Didn't you say that you died on the battlefield?!" ”

"Although my father could only rank third in the Zhenxi Army back then, even my maternal grandfather, who was in charge of the Zhenxi Army, was inferior to him in terms of title—how could the guards around him be underestimated?" Qiu Yulan sneered, "Then my grandfather came back alive, if it weren't for the cold and vicious...... How could my father be 'killed in battle'! ”

Squinting at Qiu Jinzhu, thoughtful, "Oh, so it's no wonder that you are good with him, after all, the father and son of the Guo family are great enemies for me, and they are great favors to you!" Otherwise, where will it be the turn of the Lu family and son to return to the house - then your father's yuan match may not 'die of illness', your mother and concubine will not enter the Qiu family, and there will be no you! ”

"The five county lords laughed." Seeing that Qiu Jinzhu was said to be red-faced and red-eared and couldn't get off the stage, Xiuyan hurriedly rounded the field, "The sixth county lord is ...... She was really deceived by that situation! Now that the matter has been revealed, it is still the Puyang Palace, and the princess is helpless, thinking about it, I can only ask you to open her grace! ”

With Xiuyan's status in front of Princess Yang, this is very low.

Qiu Yulan didn't plan to go with them mushrooms, thinking that this gesture should dispel their suspicions, so she sat up straight: "Then what's so long-winded?" Tell me how to help you! ”

"Here's the thing...... Qiu Jinzhu knew that the matter was big, not only herself, but even her mother Princess Yang and her brother Qiu Yinzhi had their future in the hands of this cousin, although she felt that it was difficult to speak, she quickly said what happened to Guan Qingwu-

In fact, it is also very simple, last year's Halloween occurred in the ground movement, because of the fear of aftershocks, so after a period of time after the ground movement, the summer retreats returned to Beijing one after another. During this period, for fear of a tragedy like the summer retreat of Puyang Palace, where the house collapsed and injured the old lady Qin, even if the courtyard was newly built, the owner did not dare to stay in it, so he temporarily set up a tent on the open ground in the mountains.

Of course, it's chaotic at this time.

After all, Dizi Mountain was chosen as the site for the construction of the royal summer palace, and there is a big reason for the good scenery of this mountain.

The mountain view, if it is good-looking, it is strange, dangerous, secluded, steep, beautiful, dangerous...... In short, it will definitely not be a flat river - that is to say, there is not much open space on Dizi Mountain. Since there are not many, the nobles' tents must have been put together.

This is how Qiu Jinzhu bumped into Guo Qingwu.

Originally, she didn't pay attention to it, but somehow, she ran into it one after another, and she had an impression.

Then one day Guo Qingwu greeted her, and she also stopped and said a few words: "I really didn't think much about it at the time, but I heard him report that he was the son of Zhang Guogong, thinking that Zhang Guogong was not only a concubine, but also a general guarding the frontier, and his only son was not easy to slacken." ”

This is the beginning, and the next thing is logical - as long as Qiu Jinzhu goes out, you can meet Qingwu, the two often talk a few words, in front of the subordinates, there is no transgression, but I have seen a lot, even a simple greeting, there is a kind of ambiguity growing in it.

Finally one day, he asked Qiu Jinzhu to send the maid away to say a few words, because of this frequent meeting, Qiu Jinzhu, who had already had a premonition in his heart, hesitated, with a frightened and excited novelty mood, ordered the maid to retreat far away.

As she expected, Guo Qingwu seized this opportunity and confided her admiration very warmly!

Of course, Qingwu is not as handsome as Jiang Yashuang, nor is Deng Yi unmatched, and lacks the almost instinctive charm of Qiu Jinglan's love master to attract women - but not compared with these three masters who are enough to leave a name in history based on their appearance alone, they are quite stylish in the eyes of ordinary people.

Especially his life experience, Zhang Guogong's only son, his mother-in-law, the eldest princess Xingkang, and the titular grandson of the Queen Mother Regent, in terms of grade, not to mention Jiang Yashuang, even Jiang Tianchi, the general of Zhenbei, is just equal to him.

Such a man, he has the qualifications of the master, and he falls in love with her - how can Qiu Jinzhu, who is only thirteen years old and has just begun to fall in love, not fluttering?

"The fifth sister has Jiang Yashuang, and I also have a situation!" The girl's heart moved, even if she was reserved and refused at the time, after grinding for a while, Qiu Jinzhu half-pushed and half-agreed to his pursuit - the next is the complaint of the little girl who is not yin and yang: "The prince entered Beijing this time to participate in the Spring Festival, and now he is in love with the lord of Ningtai, which can be regarded as a good match, and the master may not like it." But the prince of the world is thinking about meeting with the county lord, how much has this homework been delayed? Mr. Leshan had a seizure two days ago...... What if you look back...... Can the lord not hate the lord of the county? The prince doesn't think about himself, but also thinks about the county lord! ”

Of course, Qingwu reprimanded the little guy fiercely, and then comforted Qiu Jinzhu: "Don't listen to his nonsense, I know the homework in my own heart...... I'm not going to let my father get angry with you! ”

When he said this, his affection was as deep as the sea, and his resolute eyes made Qiu Jinzhu's whole person melt into a pool of spring water.

But a few days later, the little girl came to her quietly, and cried as soon as they met: "Shizishe has to see you, and I am afraid that the loss of Chunqiu will make the master angry, and then track you down, so I come out to accompany you during the day, and stay up late to read after returning at night...... Where can such a body stand it? It's a morning...... Fainted! I haven't woken up yet! ”

…… Hearing this, Qiu Yulan said lightly: "Then you must have run desperately to see him, and when you arrived at the place, you found that he was really unconscious, haggard, and there was no one around to take care of him - so you tried to stay and take care of him, and I may have heard him say a few words in the middle, either reading your name, or saying that he loves you and likes you and can't leave you, he will definitely die or something...... Really? ”

Qiu Jinzhu was immersed in the reminiscence of the past, tears appeared in her eyes from time to time, and she couldn't help but be stunned when she heard the words: "Fifth sister, how do you know?" ”

"If you have a brother, if you have something to do, I will tell you for a few hours about the '999 tragic fates of the non-humans' or 'on the common methods of the unfortunate people', and every time the actual case teaching is introduced, and the cases cited each time are not repeated......" Qiu Yulan muttered in her heart, "I guarantee that even if you are a local girl who is still in the stage of youth and ignorance, even if Qingwu is still in the stage of youth and ignorance, she will not want to settle you until she has read all the women!" ”

However, she naturally wouldn't tell Qiu Jinzhu about this complaint that damaged Qiu Jinglan's image, and said lightly: "Besides, the wolf is ambitious, and he will take revenge, how can his biological son not pretend?" Moreover, with the identity of Guo Qingwu, it is impossible for the little guy next to him to buy it from Renyazi for ten taels of silver yesterday, how can he not understand the rules at all, and when he rushes his master to meet you, he will talk to you endlessly?! It's clearly the Qingwu Sect, the master and servant are singing and coaxing you! ”

Qiu Jinzhu couldn't help but say: "The matter was spread by the Puyang Palace, and I don't know where I offended them - in fact, he ...... me."

"If he really has a heart for you, now that the rumors are spreading like something, why hasn't he come forward to give you an explanation?" Qiu Yulan's understatement made Qiu Jinzhu's heart completely cold, "This person has nothing to hope for, now think about what you want to do, right?" ”

Seeing Qiu Jinzhu crying in a daze, Qiu Lulan asked Su He to hand over a handkerchief, and said calmly: "If I want to protect you now, it is natural to let Guo Qingwu marry you!" But you probably don't know that Empress Dowager Gu is now eager to envelop Shi Han, and last year she told Shi Han that she would give Princess Changping to him! Even if he spreads such news to you now, against the Zhenxi Army, the Queen Mother will not be careful...... Of course, I won't care about him, and if I talk to you, I think the Queen Mother won't be so easy to talk to! ”

Qiu Jinzhu didn't know what to say at all, so she came with Xiuyan, and hurriedly asked with a smile: "Please also invite the bishop of the five counties and the lord of the six counties?" ”
