At dusk, sporadic light rain began to fall in the gloomy sky!

Prime Minister's Mansion, Restaurant.

When it comes to aristocratic dining rooms, there may not be much to talk about, nothing more than exquisite furnishings and expensive tableware, but the prime minister's restaurant is indeed different. This is the part of the main dining room that extends outward, and is a small dining room built on the terrace on the second floor. The restaurant is made up of more than 20 large panes, and it is truly unique for a family to dine in such a twilight weather.

The prime minister seemed very silent, sitting in the master's seat, he sipped two sips of fine red wine from time to time, and did not pay attention to the abnormality of his granddaughter Xue Ya on the left.

Since Hua Long joined the Nicholas family, Rongte has indeed neglected Xue Ya, which also shows that he prefers the old man's desire to inherit the family business by a man, of course, it is also one of the old man's wishes to see the birth of his great-grandson.

When serving the main course!

"Hua Long, you have been doing a good job of official business recently, Your Majesty mentioned you in the morning. Rong Te gradually discovered that Hua Long is not a gentleman who doesn't care about anything, to be exact, it should be the kind of person who has some knowledge, but acts very low-key, but he rarely speaks, giving people a sense of being free from the world.

However, although it was different from what he expected, Prime Minister Rongte liked Hualong more and more.

It's time to tell him something about the family!

Prime Minister Rongte thought as he took another sip of wine.

"Father, drink less, have you forgotten what the doctor told you?" said Countess Chosya, who was sitting next to Xueya.

"Hehe!" Prime Minister Rongte suddenly smiled and put down his wine glass, "Drink less and don't get in the way." ”

In the time that followed, Prime Minister Rongte and Hua Long talked while eating, and most of the content they talked about was the history of the family, the situation of the empire, and the future development, etc.!

Countess Qiusiya was the first to notice that her daughter was in a trance, and just when she wanted to ask, Xue Ya stood up, glared at Hua Long with resentment, and then said angrily, "I'm full." With that, she turned and left the restaurant.

"What's wrong with her?" said Prime Minister Ronte was a little puzzled.

Countess Qiusiya hurriedly relieved the siege and said: "Is it that your speech is too speculative, hehe, the girl's family is always very sensitive to this kind of thing." ”

It's just that this is really the case? Others don't know, but Hua Long is really very clear in his heart, so he said, "Then I ...... it."

"Go ahead, accompany Xue Ya well. ”

Hua Long immediately saluted, and then left.

......

Prime Minister's Mansion, Villa Bedroom.

Gently pushing open the hidden door, Hua Long saw his wife sitting on the sofa at first glance, her pink face was red from crying, and she looked very wronged.

What kind of fart grievances! It's not that he's stupid, he insists on deceiving others! Hua Long originally thought so, but when he saw his wife's forbearance and pity, he felt that those who deceived Xue Ya seemed to be even more hateful.

However, it is still good to let Xueya suffer a loss!

Therefore, Hua Long didn't say anything, just sat quietly beside her.

And at this moment, Xue Ya's heart was very confused, seeing her husband sitting next to her, she really seemed to hug him, crying and complaining in his arms, but she knew that she couldn't do this, because she couldn't let go of her dignity and face no matter what.

He's going to laugh at me!

Suppressed emotions began to accumulate in Xueya's heart, and negative emotions such as uneasiness and panic followed.

The atmosphere between the two suddenly became a little awkward!

Hua Long actually wanted to ask his wife how much he lost, but he didn't ask in the end, the reason was very simple, the amount of money must be very large, and the big one made Xue Ya feel unable to pay it back, otherwise she wouldn't be like this, and since he had already guessed, why bother asking about the detailed amount?

Is there hope after despair? Hua Long snorted coldly in his heart, he didn't feel very clever about his brother's plan, at best, he only used human instinct and psychology.

A moment later, Xue Ya erupted in silence!

"It's because of your relationship that grandpa doesn't look at me now!"

Hua Long understands that his wife must be very uncomfortable now, and wants to lose her temper to vent her anger and dissatisfaction, but she can't mention gambling, so she ...... Should I talk back? Or should I remain silent? As for the relationship between children and daughters, Hua Long is completely a layman, if he is familiar with the psychology of women, he should choose an appropriate amount of arguments with his wife at this time, but Hua Long does not understand after all, so he chooses to be silent.

Seeing that her husband didn't care about herself, Xue Ya was even more angry, crying and hammering Hua Long's body, completely losing the appearance of a lady on weekdays.

"You are a second-class official, but you are not as good as a guard at the city gate!" Xue Ya shouted out the words that she usually held in her heart, "I usually know how to plant flowers, plant flowers, you don't care about so many illegal things on the street (alluding to the casino), my friend asked you to do something, but you didn't even answer, do you know?

Hua Long's continuous silence made Xue Ya's anger skyrocket, and she began to kick Hua Long's thigh hard, even ......

"Do you know, I'm really tired and hard to marry you!" Xue Ya suddenly cried like a tearful person, and her voice began to whimper, "They ...... They all laughed at me for marrying a wooden man......"

Looking back on the past, this wooden man's evaluation is not exaggerated!

Hua Long also felt a little sorry for Xue Ya, after all, he always had to be humble and love his wife, but he didn't do this.

"I know. Hua Long said softly with apologies.

"It's all your fault, you obviously don't know anything!" After speaking, Xue Ya threw herself into her husband's arms and cried even louder.

Gently clasping his hand around his wife's waist, Hua Long said very gently: "Yes...... Yes!"

"It's all your fault...... It's all your ......."

I don't know how long I cried, Xue Ya, who hugged Hua Long tightly, finally fell asleep tired, in order not to disturb his wife, Hua Long could only lean on the sofa, and took a nap while caressing his wife in his arms......

......

In the early morning, a slightly moist breeze blows through the window screens, bringing a touch of coolness to the room.

Hazy, Hua Long woke up, but Xue Ya, who was sleeping in his arms, hadn't woken up yet, she must be tired, Hua Long gently brushed away the long curls scattered on his wife's cheeks, under the warm sun, her white skin exuded a soft luster, a straight nose, bright cherry lips, depicted the distinct outline of her face, giving people an inexplicable beauty.

If she can change the shortcomings of her love for vanity, she should still be a good girl worth loving, Hua Long thought!

However, just when Hua Long was thinking like this, Xue Ya suddenly woke up.

How did I sleep in his arms? Xue Ya originally wanted to struggle to get up, but her body didn't move as if she didn't obey the call, did I sleep in his arms all night? This night, Xue Ya felt that she was sleeping very peacefully, and she didn't feel scared at all in her heart.

Feeling that Xue Ya was awake, Hua Long picked up his wife and put her on the big bed, "I'm very busy with official business today, I want to go to the Beidu Mansion early......" Hua Long, who was busy covering Xue Ya with a quilt, found that at this moment she was looking at herself with stubborn eyes, and tears were already rolling in her eyes.

She probably didn't want to leave by herself, but she couldn't say it? Hua Long guessed Qiu Ya's thoughts at the moment, and he also knew that she was scared.

"I'm not going to leave the Northern Governor's Mansion today, if anything, let Sasna find me, and I'll be back at once. Hua Long did not speak to his wife with the cold expression he usually had, but in a caring tone.

Xue Ya finally couldn't help crying quietly, but she nodded vigorously.

"Rest well. ”

After speaking, Hua Long turned around and walked out of the bedroom and closed the door.

......

At 9 a.m., inside the official office of the North Governor's Mansion.

Hua Long was busy dealing with all kinds of official documents, because the arms purchase meeting was imminent, and the important people of the two countries were about to visit, the security force in the cold moon imperial capital seemed to be important, and His Majesty had summoned himself and the southern governor before, in order to ensure that there would not be any unpleasant "incidents" this time.

What a headache!

"By the way, what about Xingxue, why haven't I seen her for two days?" suddenly looked up, Hua Long asked the staff on the side.

"The elder asked for leave and had two days off. ”

"Rest?" Hua Long suddenly wondered, the wild girl who almost took her "life", she would ask for a rest?

"If she's not there, wouldn't the adults be more at ease to handle official business?"

Hualong suddenly had a black line at one end!

Is he sarcastic about me? Seeing that Tarex was still buried in reviewing the documents, Hua Long smiled, this guy's words are always so sharp, but ...... At this moment, Hua Long didn't know that Xing Xue was packing up his belongings and preparing to leave the Cold Moon Imperial Capital, and he also didn't know that Xing Xue couldn't hide the sadness in his heart at the moment.

Is this distinction also fate?

"My lord, what do you want to do with the casino?"

"Me?" Hua Long thought for a moment, and his smile showed a hint of conspiracy: "My brother has invested a lot of money this time, I think I should take care of his business." ”

"Do you want to be involved in gambling yourself?"

"Perhaps. ”

That's it!

"My lord, there's a maid named Sasna outside who says she wants to see you. The guard said respectfully.

"Let her in. Hua Long put down the work at hand and said.

Soon, Sasna hurriedly walked in, and after saluting, "Young Master, Miss Xue Ya is sick, she hopes you can go back now." ”

Sick? This girl is really good at making excuses!

"I see. Hua Long reluctantly put on his coat, turned to Tarex and said, "Come to my study tonight." ”

“......”

......

At the same time, the Marshal's Palace.

Marshal Ron is still enjoying the sun on the rocking chair in the courtyard, and I am afraid that he is the only one in the entire Cold Moon Empire with such leisure and comfort!

"Your Excellency, Marshal. ”

A young man's voice came from nowhere.

"Creth, the two apprentices you brought this time are really good. Ron rarely used appreciative words, but this time, he did.

The young man who spoke to Ron, his figure was hidden in a dark corner, not only Marshal Ron could not see it, but even the yard dog, which had an unusually sensitive sense of smell.

"The two of them have only been learning gambling with me for a few years, and it is their blessing and luck to be able to serve the marshal this time. His tone was humble.

"You're being a bit humble to say that. Ron smiled, "By the way, how's the key and password going?"

"I've given Miss Lansi the keys and passwords. ”

"That ......"

"Don't worry, Lord Marshal, I've done it clean, and no one will find out. ”

"Okay, good!" Ron said two 'good' words in a row, and then said, "I'll stay here for the next two days, and I'll be responsible for all expenses." ”

"Then I will thank the marshal for his hospitality!"

On the way out of the Marshal's Mansion, the young man and Hua Yun met, and the two stopped at the same time, and then walked in opposite directions together.

......

The same thing was also played out next to the Rose Garden in the Prime Minister's Mansion, but the actors were replaced by Miss Lan Si who came out of the villa in the Prime Minister's Mansion and Hua Long who came back from the Northern Governor's Mansion.

At this time, Lan Si's face was proud, and Hua Long looked very calm.

"Lord Beidu. With a peach blossom-like smile on her face, Lan Si lifted the corner of her skirt and saluted Hua Long.

What can you do when you come back? Can you have the money to help Xue Ya pay back that fool? Even if you have money to pay back, I'm afraid Xue Ya won't tell you, hmph! You're still a northern governor! But it's a pity that you're a little white face, I'm afraid you'll have to follow the old guy from Prime Minister Rongte to ask for food when the time comes!

Since the last time Hua Long refused to be invited to dance in public, Lan Si has always held a grudge.

Hua Long smiled and nodded, and then walked past Lan Si's side, but at the moment when the two of them were staggered, Hua Long suddenly whispered in a cold tone: "To be a man, it's best to leave some leeway for yourself, otherwise, one day you will regret it!"

Lan Si was stunned, and by the time she came to her senses, Hua Long had already left.

Is this really what he said? Isn't he a waste? Isn't he a gentleman who only knows how to play with flowers and plants all day long? How can he speak so sharply? Has he seen through everything? How is this possible!

If this is the case, is it necessary for their conspiracy to continue? Or is it just his own delusion that the Northern Governor Hualong and what he said to himself are just his own delusions?

"It must be an illusion, right?" Lan Si had an incomprehensible expression, "Illusion! It must be an illusion, hehe......" She didn't realize that sweat had already run down her silky cheeks.

......
