The subordinates were quick to talk, and they wanted to invite merit, and after telling Xing about it, they went to the Duchess to talk about it, and what they said was vivid.

As soon as the Duchess heard that Ye Qingcheng had been with Qin Rui for almost a month, her face fell on the spot, and she called Mei over.

"What do you mean by the Lord of Los Angeles?" Mei Shi was also at a loss after hearing this, "How did you get involved with Rui'er." ”

"Then I'll have to ask the county lord." The Duchess was unhappy in her heart, this granddaughter-in-law was not what she was hoping for, and her reputation was poor, she originally wanted to send people and Qin Rui into a pile. But now there is no way, she has already compensated a Qin Shao, and she also admits it, as long as Ye Qingcheng is honest and doesn't cause trouble for her, she can't tolerate her.

A few days ago, she knew that Ye Tingcheng had made a big fuss in the palace and kicked her two sisters-in-law into the water, Qin Yu was eyebrows dancing when she came back to speak, and she seemed to agree with Ye Tingcheng's move, but the Duchess didn't think so.

A person who doesn't even know how to respect his sister in the palace, isn't he as arrogant as the outside says? And what happened to the daughters taught by the Pingjiang Palace? From the county lord of Fancheng to the county lord of Luocheng, there is a Ye Lucheng and a Ye Yucheng in the middle, and none of them are worry-free. The county lord of Fancheng is already the duchess of the country, and she is still so reckless and impulsive, and the family ugly preaches it in front of outsiders, and Ye Lucheng and Ye Yucheng bully their sisters, and they don't have any tutors. As for this Ye Tingcheng, it is even more outrageous, not only is she disrespectful, but she also beats people, no matter how good her motives are, she will do it if she is not used to it, is this considered self-cultivation? It can be seen that it is really not a good thing that this princess died early, and the current princess of Pingjiang herself is estimated to be not very dignified, but it is not that she can't teach any good daughters.

It's no wonder that there are many rumors about Ye Chengcheng outside.

So now the Duchess of Yasukuni has complaints about everyone in the Pingjiang Palace, this Pingjiang Mansion looks prosperous and rich, and the daughters who are taught are so unreliable.

And Ye Chengcheng, the lord of Los Angeles County, is the unreliable of the unreliable.

Now this scourge actually went to be with Qin Rui, who was the weakest in their Yasukuni Mansion, for so long, and the people in the other courtyard didn't report it until now, did they want to poke her heart to death?

"You tell Shao'er to go and have a look." Duchess Guo said with a gloomy face, "What is this like, the county lord of Los Angeles is Shao'er's future daughter-in-law, and now it's okay." He didn't run after the outsiders, but came to the house to stir up peace. ”

"Doesn't it mean that Rui'er is getting a little better now? I guess the lord of Los Angeles didn't have any bad intentions. Although Mei Shi is not comfortable in her heart, after all, Ye Chengcheng will be her daughter-in-law in the future, and she, who is a mother-in-law, does not want her future daughter-in-law's reputation to be too dirty, although her reputation is no longer good. So Mei also tried to help Ye Tingcheng say a few words in front of the Duchess of Guo.

"Confused!" The Duchess of Guo slammed the cane on the ground and said sharply, "Rui'er has been sick for so long, no matter how many doctors she has seen, what does she know about a teenage girl who has not even arrived?" Do you believe the nonsense that people are talking about? Rui'er's health is slightly better, that is his own credit, and it is also the credit of the doctor in the house, what does it have to do with the county lord of Luocheng? If she was really so powerful, how could she have such a bad reputation outside? Do you know what kind of heart and eyes she has? Why don't you hurry up and call Shao'er! ”

The reputation of the Yasukuni Mansion for so many years, a loyal martyr, so many people were born and died for the Liang, and the good reputation that was only exchanged for sacrificing their lives on the battlefield, the Duchess of the Kingdom didn't want to be disturbed by a-stirring stick Lord of Los Angeles.

Yes, she admitted that the county lord of Los Angeles was kind to her, and she also repaid the kindness, and she didn't look at anyone else in Yanjing City who was willing to marry the county lord of Los Angeles back. Even if she had Li Daitao's stiff heart at the beginning, didn't it work out? still let one of his favorite grandsons agree to marry that girl. The Guogong Mansion is also worthy of the Pingjiang Palace.

If this girl thought that she had saved her life and dared to mess around with the Duchess of the Kingdom, then she would definitely not agree.

When the Duchess said this, Mei was also a little flustered.

That's right, I think that Ye Chengcheng is only thirteen years old, he has been spoiled in the palace, and he doesn't know anything, if he says that Rui'er's body is getting better because of her, he really kills them and doesn't believe it.

Thinking like this, Mei immediately took his leave from the Duchess and called a small servant to go to Beizhen Fusi to find Qin Shao.

Qin Shao didn't know what was going on at home, but he knew that the subordinates in the family were in a hurry to find him and told him to hurry home, and he didn't dare to delay, so he immediately took a leave with the commander of the Zhenfu Division, and ran towards home.

When he arrived at home, he also felt very strange to see his mother and everything was fine.

"Hurry up and go to the Begonia Garden to see your future daughter-in-law." Mei has been upset since she was told by the Duchess of the Kingdom.

I don't know what happened to Ye Tingcheng, but he didn't even let go of a terminally ill person. If this gets out, I don't know what it will look like outside.

Qin Shao's eyebrows furrowed slightly, "You mean the county lord of Los Angeles?" Is she in Begonia Garden? ”

"She is in the Ye family ancestral hall, only separated from our Begonia Garden by a wall. People are jumping over the wall every day to find your cousin in our courtyard. Oh, I'm in a hurry, you go and see, don't make any ugly things. Mei was so anxious that her brows furrowed.

"What can they do ugly." Qin Shao laughed. With his understanding of Ye Chengcheng, that woman only likes beautiful men. For Qin Rui in her previous life, she didn't even bother to take a look.

Seeing his son's relaxed face, Mei Shi was even more troubled, "Don't you know what your future daughter-in-law's reputation is outside?" If you come over the wall to our courtyard every day, will it sound good? You hurry up and take a look, and tell her, if you still want to be the future daughter-in-law of our Qin family, be honest. Otherwise, my mother is desperate to give her life, and she will go to His Majesty to ask for a holy decree and ruin this marriage. ”

Qin Shao heard what his mother said so heavily, and nodded helplessly, "Mother Shao'an is not impatient, I'll just go and take a look." ”

"Hurry up." Mei waved his hand and hurriedly drove his son outside.

If Mei's really fights for his life, this marriage may really be ruined. Qin Shao thought as he walked out.

His father and eldest brother both died on the battlefield, and His Majesty has always been grateful for it, and if Mei is resolute, it is not impossible to take back his life. But this is only a possibility, Qin Shao naturally would not let his mother take such a big risk.

If it really displeased Emperor Zhao, not only will the marriage continue, but also make a faceless in front of His Majesty, and even have a bad relationship with the Pingjiang Royal Mansion in Mingli, and most importantly, Xiao Yunmo and Concubine Hui will not like it.

With so many factors added together, Qin Shao felt that this marriage still needed to be maintained for the time being.

He naturally rode a horse faster than Xing's movements, and Xing's was a lady, going out with all kinds of things and packing up, so when Qin Shao arrived at the other courtyard, Xing didn't even return the gate.

"The third young master is here." Seeing that Qin Shao was here, he was busy helping to lead the horse.

"The county lord is at our house?" Qin Shao shook off his horse and asked.

"Yes." The porter hurriedly replied, "Young Master Herui is in the backyard." ”

"She climbs over the wall every day?" Qin Shao asked again.

"yes." The porter smiled, "This county lord is really dexterous. After finishing speaking, he felt that he was speechless, he hurriedly shut up, and looked at Qin Shao nervously, the county lord is Qin Shao's future wife, and he said the future lady in front of the young master, the young master must be unhappy.

Fortunately, Qin Shao didn't have any expression on his face, and the porter breathed a sigh of relief.

"The little one goes in and passes it through." The porter said immediately.

"When I go back to my own courtyard, do I still need to pass it on?" Qin Shao glanced at the porter, and his body under the porter shook, "The little one should be damned." Qin Shao looked at him lazily and walked in quickly.

The people he met along the way were all dispersed by him.

He quietly approached the backyard, just to see what the hell the two men were doing.

"County Lord, can I go fishing with you tomorrow?" Before he could get closer, Qin Rui's voice floated from the forest, and Qin Shao slowed down his pace.

"Yes. As long as your grandmother is willing to let you out. Ye Tingcheng's voice also sounded very happy.

"Mama?"

"Young master, this old slave can't be the master, and the young master still needs the consent of his wife to ask for the door." Mama Tian said with a smile.

"I'll just go out, don't worry, Mama, I'll take care of everything." Qin Rui said after being silent for a moment.

"Don't." When Ye Tingcheng heard this, he shook his hand again and again, "Don't make your own decisions, if something happens, I won't be able to compensate such a big son for your mother." ”

Qin Shao stopped, and from here he could already see the scene of the clearing in the woods.

On the grass in the forest, a large thick blanket was spread, Ye Tingcheng and Qin Rui were both sitting on the ground, and the sunlight was evenly sprinkled on the two people's bodies, making the two of them look as if they were covered with a faint layer of light.

There are also some fresh fruits and pastries on the blanket, which looks very cozy.

Qin Rui was a little annoyed when he heard Ye Tingcheng's words, "Who wants you to pay for it." He glared at Ye Qingcheng lightly.

"Naturally, it's from your Qin family." Ye Qingcheng smiled, "You are their baby bump." If I swallow and touch, then I can't bear it. ”

Qin Rui's complexion was really much better, Qin Shao looked over from here, his skin seemed to glow with a faint luster, and he was no longer as dead as before. His spirit also soared, and a smile and chagrin flashed between his eyebrows, which filled the whole person with life.

Is Tai Chi really so powerful? Qin Shao heard Mei Shi talk about the situation here, and said that Ye Tingcheng was teaching Tai Chi to Qin Rui.

The Duchess didn't believe in this, she didn't believe that Ye Tingcheng would be so kind, that Tai Chi boxing was claimed to be a lost mastery, Ye Tingcheng didn't even want to reveal who he learned it with in front of His Majesty that day, a person who was still so secretive in front of His Majesty would be kind enough to hand over this kind of boxing method that even Empress Sheng Xiaoren had mentioned to his grandson? It's still the frail grandson, this thing is really talking about the world, and she doesn't believe it.

"And how long are you going tomorrow?" Qin Rui asked uneasily, "But have you come to instruct me on my boxing technique?" ”

"Estimated to be a day. I'm going to go to the mountains with Suhe to catch some game and come back. Ye Tingcheng smiled and patted Qin Rui's shoulder, "You're blessed." The day after tomorrow, I'll treat you to barbecue. ”

"Really?" Ye Qincheng said this, Qin Rui's eyes lit up, and the corners of his mouth were hooked, "Then you must come." ”

"When did I lie to you?" Ye Tingcheng said with a smile, "Okay, it's not too early, you should go back." ”

After speaking, she stood up, patted her skirt, and walked to the wall, Qin Rui also put a ladder here to facilitate Ye Tingcheng to climb high and low.

Qin Rui reluctantly watched Ye Tingcheng climb over the wall, and stood for a while before he sighed and turned around.

"Mama, let's go back." As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a man slowly walk out of the depths of the woods.

Qin Shao was in a hurry because he was urged by Mei's, so he didn't remember to change his clothes, he was still wearing a flying fish suit, he was now the deputy commander of the Beizhen Fu Division, so the color of the flying fish suit was also changed to golden brown, and the dragon fish pattern on his clothes flashed with seven-colored light in the sun.

When he saw Qin Shao before, Qin Rui always had a feeling of inferiority and self-shame. Now standing face to face with his cousin, that feeling seems to have faded a lot.

One day, maybe he will be like Qin Shao.

In the past, he was too pessimistic, thinking that his life would understand this small world, but the appearance of Ye Chengcheng seemed to open up another world for him, a world full of adventures.

The county lord is right, if he doesn't try anything, how do you know he can do it?

If he doesn't work hard to live, how do you know if he'll get better? It only took a month for Ye Chengcheng to sweep away the decadence he had formed for many years before, and he didn't want to wear a hood anymore. Even if the sun is a little stronger and the sun is uncomfortable, he doesn't want to.

However, Ye Tingcheng will still buckle it for him, for fear that he will be sunburned, this early summer sunshine is indeed a little powerful. In time, Ye Qingcheng himself did not dare to expose himself in the afternoon.

"Third brother." Qin Rui was slightly startled, how long had he been standing in the forest? Did you listen to all the conversations between him and Ye Tingcheng? Qin Rui clasped his fists and saluted Qin Shao.

"Looks like you're looking a lot better." Qin Shao smiled at Qin Rui slightly, raised his hand and pressed it on his shoulder, well, yes, his bones are much stronger, when he pressed it like this before, his shoulders were all soft couches.

"These are all the credit of the county lord." Qin Rui was a little apprehensive.

These days, he is trying to ignore the fact that Ye Chengcheng has been engaged to the three of him, she has guided him so carefully, so that he has the illusion that she will always be with him, he likes this feeling very much, so he deceived himself and took the initiative to ignore Qin Shao's existence.

And now that the person who was engaged to the county lord was standing in front of him, and he also pressed his hand on his shoulder affectionately, Qin Rui's heart flowed through bitterness.

"Third brother, don't get me wrong." Qin Rui worked hard to explain to Qin Shao, "The county lord is very good, she just looks at me pitiful, so she taught me Taijiquan." ”

"I didn't get anything wrong. You don't have to be nervous. Qin Shao smiled faintly.

The scene just now really shocked him, Ye Tingcheng in this life seemed to have really become another person, a person he didn't recognize at all.

Qin Rui is not stupid, Qin Shao is still wearing an official uniform, which proves that he was in an extremely hurry when he came, and it must have been reported back to the old mansion about the county lord and him, so Qin Shao rushed over in such a hurry. The last time Qin Shao came overnight was for the family to cheat on the marriage.

Qin Rui's face turned a little pale.

"But someone has said bad things about the county lord again?" He eagerly shook Qin Shao's hand and asked.

"Yes." Qin Shao nodded. "It's not all bad, I just don't believe her."

"Did grandmother or aunt call you?" Qin Rui asked.

"It's my mother." Qin Shao did not hide his blunt words to Qin Rui.

"Third brother, you have to believe me, believe in the county lord." Qin Rui's eyes were a little red, "The county lord is really nice." ”

"I see." Qin Shao pinched Qin Rui's shoulder comfortingly. "Don't overthink it. The body matters. After Qin Shao finished speaking, he called Mama Tian, "Send your young master over." ”

"Yes." Mama Tian didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly pulled Qin Rui away.

Qin Rui still wanted to say something, but Mama Tian secretly shook his head, he could only swallow back the words behind, and followed Mama Tian back to his room step by step.

After Qin Shaomu sent Qin Rui away, he removed the smile on his face.

He glanced at the wall over there, jumped over, and landed in the backyard of the Ye family's ancestral hall.

Ye Chengcheng was stretching out his arms and legs in the courtyard to move his hands and feet, and he was startled when he saw a person leaping over.

"I'll go! I want to scare people to death in broad daylight! When he saw the appearance of the person who came, Ye Tingcheng patted his chest and glanced at Qin Shao. Hey, the clothes have changed color, congratulations on your promotion. But I still think you look better in dark blue. It's not a curse to demote you, don't get me wrong. It's better for you to work harder and wear that dark purple outfit, which also looks good. Ye Qingcheng discovered Qin Shao's new flying fish suit as if she had discovered a new continent, she jumped over with a smile, circled around Qin Shao, touched her chin and said. If a person is handsome, he has an advantage, and this-like color on him doesn't make people feel ugly, but has another taste. Ye Chengcheng was slandered.

The point of him jumping over the wall to find her was not what color he was wearing.

"By the way, can you fix the problem of going over the wall? Flip it over, have you asked me if I agree or not? Ye Tingcheng complained, this is the case in the palace, and now it is like this in the ancestral hall of the Ye family.

Qin Shao raised his eyebrows when he heard this, he hadn't said anything about her, but she began to count him.

Su He and Su Qing originally wanted to come over, but as soon as they saw that the person was the future guest of honor, they stopped, and left the backyard with their own trouble, leaving the backyard to the county lord and the future guest of honor.

"The county lord hasn't just overturned the courtyard wall of our house." Qin Shao said lightly.

"Every time I climb over the wall of your house, I ask your family Qin Rui. If you don't believe me, ask him. Ye Tingcheng glared and said, "What do you want to say when you climb over the wall this time?" "This man has nothing to do but ascend to the Three Treasures Palace.

"Stay away from Qin Rui in the future." Qin Shao still said in a light tone.

"Why?" Ye Chengcheng was stunned for a moment, and then came to his senses, "What rumors have spread to the capital?" Her pretty brow furrowed, and a little impatience crossed her eyes.

"Yes." Qin Shao nodded, "Don't forget our contract. He reminded.

"Okay." Ye Chengcheng was stunned for a moment, and then laughed self-deprecatingly, "Anyway, I'm an unruly person in your eyes, right?" She turned around silently and said that it was false not to be wronged, and she was very uncomfortable in her heart now. I know. ”

"It's good to know." Qin Shao answered, and the moment she turned around, he suddenly had an urge to hold her.

Her back looked faintly sad, something he had never seen in Ye Chengcheng before.

However, his fingers moved slightly at his side, and he did not raise his arm, but quietly watched as she walked to the railing under the cloister and sat down.

There was an eerie silence in the courtyard, and the early summer wind had passed and it was so silent that there was not even a sound of leaves on the branches.

He looked at her petite back while she lowered her head. Qin Shao endured and endured, but he still didn't speak first, in fact, he should have thanked her personally, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't believe that Ye Tingcheng had made such a big change in Qin Rui in a month. Qin Rui is his cousin, he has been very close to him since he was a child, and he also hopes that Qin Rui will be well.

"Go back. I know what to do. It was Ye Tingcheng who spoke first and broke the unusual tranquility in this courtyard.

"Okay." Qin Shao nodded and turned around to leave.

He had just taken a step when he heard Ye Qingcheng's faint voice behind him, "Qin Shao." ”

"What?" He stopped and looked slightly sideways at her.

She didn't know when she had gotten up and stood up, just stood under the corridor and looked at herself, he felt that such a Ye Chengcheng was so strange to him, her face was a little hesitant and confused, as if she was lost in the depths of the dense forest and couldn't find a safe place.

Just for this moment, he even felt that she showed a rare vulnerability in front of him, which he had never seen in his previous life. This trace of fragility seemed to tug at the depths of his heartstrings, making his heart have a dull ache the moment he turned to see her.

"It's okay if no one else believes me, but do you believe me?" Ye Qingcheng quietly looked at Qin Shao's face like a beautiful jade that could not find any flaws at all, and she asked softly. "Do you believe I'm the woman I was rumored?"
