Chapter 100: Love

On this day, there was a drizzle in the air, which was not big, and it did not even affect travel, but it was very lingering.

At the window seat on the second floor of the Xue family's only jewelry shop in the capital, there was a very suppressed and subtle whisper, as if he was frightened, but he felt a little more indescribable shame.

Xue Baochai felt short of breath for the first time, she reached out and touched her cheek, it was hot, as if it was about to burn, she was startled, quickly lowered her head, instantly buried her face in her arm, and desperately suppressed a pounding heart.

Ying'er was startled: "Miss, Miss, what's wrong with you?" But uncomfortable? ”

Baochai barely calmed down, pulled her lips, and smiled: "It's okay, maybe I didn't sleep well last night, I'm a little tired, Ying'er, you go and pour me a cup of tea." ”

Ying'er patted her heart and said with a little melancholy: "Miss, don't be too anxious, several old shopkeepers are capable, you can't sleep well for several nights like this, that's not possible, where can your body stand it......"

Nagging in her mouth, Ying'er obediently went out to pour tea for her young lady.

As soon as Ying'er's back disappeared, Xue Baochai lay down again, biting her lip, and the figure of the man in a purple dress flashed in her mind over and over again - that person, that person......

In the past, Xue Baochai read, whenever he read about Pan An, Song Yu, Lanling Wang, Wei Jue and other beautiful men, it seems that a woman can fall into it at a glance, and when she can't extricate herself, she is always a little disapproving, men, what does it matter if the skin is good or bad, if it is really a smart woman, let alone that he is just good-skinned, even if he is brilliant and talented, it is impossible to lose his soul at a glance.

Later, when she saw Jia Baoyu, she also felt that this cousin was born well, but he was always a little more fat, and although he was a little smart, he was lazy by nature, he didn't like to read, and his talent was naturally not outstanding.

Looking at a lot of words, the daughter of the young lady who was raised in the boudoir accidentally caught a glimpse of a polite and polite scholar, and fell in love at first sight, haunted by dreams, and did not think about tea and dinner for that person, and even disregarded the rules of etiquette and developed a personal relationship with him.

Baochai, who has always been calm and realistic, always treats these as jokes, but it is just a dream of a beautiful woman, how can such an outrageous thing happen in real life, but, but at this moment, Xue Baochai suddenly felt that even if it was a dream, it could appear in reality...... The steady temperament that he has cultivated for more than ten years seems to have collapsed and broken for a moment.

Just a moment ago, Xue Baochai looked dizzy when he looked at the account book, so he exhaled, quietly opened a thin slit in the bead curtain on the window, and looked outside, there were people coming and going on the street, in fact, there was nothing to see, but Baochai had been stuffy for a long time, and he always had to be loose and relaxed.

Just when she was idle for a while, and was about to drop the beaded curtain, a vermilion carriage suddenly came not far away, the door curtain of the carriage was open, and a man wearing a purple luxurious robe with a beautiful jade hanging from his waist was poking his head out and talking to the little guy sitting in front of him.

At that moment, Baochai was stunned, the hand holding the bead curtain couldn't move, and the whole body no longer seemed to obey the master's call.

That person is really good, not as beautiful as Jia Baoyu, of course, his appearance is also handsome and timeless, but when people look at his appearance, it is always like a fog, hazy...... Xue Baochai only saw the side face of this person, and a trace of tiredness between his eyebrows, but somehow, he suddenly felt as if his heart had been stabbed by a long needle, and it seemed to be pinched tightly...... Mixed tastes, thoughts churning.

Xue Baochai is obviously the kind of girl who doesn't believe in love at first sight, but just this glance made a strange, unknown name, unknown origin of a man stunned, maybe, this is fate, but it's a pity...... Xue Baochai sighed again, pressed his eyebrows, probably a bad fate, although it was only a moment, but she could see it clearly, that person was not young, although his appearance was excellent, but his sideburns were already frosty, and his demeanor also carried a sense of vicissitudes that did not belong to a young man, his age, how could he be thirty years old, how could such a person not have married a wife, coupled with his costumes, he was obviously a noble family, and it was impossible to delay until today that he has not married.

Thinking about it, thinking about it, Xue Baochai gritted his teeth fiercely, reached out and pinched his arm, patted his hot face again, closed his eyes, barely suppressed the reverie in his heart, and said to himself word by word: "Xue Baochai, don't daydream, even if that person really didn't marry a wife, he wouldn't want you to be a businessman's daughter who will inevitably show up...... If you have a noble background like Sister Lin, maybe there is still a little hope......"

After saying this, the heat on Xue Baochai's face disappeared, and at the same time, the blood color faded in an instant, she never thought that such a man could be right with her from beginning to end, perhaps, Xue Baochai's heart is hidden in a little inferiority, but before, she never showed it.

Even if Xue Baochai minds, this is just a small fragment, except for her, it has not affected anyone else, Rongguo Mansion is still tossing the provincial villa in a hurry, and here in Zhiyun, He Qing, the concubine, is running here again and again, and the outsiders who have frequent times can't help but look sideways.

If it weren't for the fact that he respectfully called Zhiyun his wife every time to the outside world, and had a harmonious relationship with the princess, he didn't have a roommate, and he was single-minded towards the princess, the princess also loved her husband very much, and trusted her very much, both of them were about to become synonymous with the capital's 'model couple', and there is no princess who has not yet married, and there is no one who does not envy the princess's sister or aunt. Perhaps, there will be some bad rumors in Beijing that will start to spread.

It's not that He Qing doesn't care about the influence, he used to deal with Zhiyun, and most of them would avoid people's eyes, but there have been too many things too urgent recently, so he can't take care of them so much.

In a few days, there were two orders from the Lord of Long Live over there, one is that the eighth elder brother and the elder brother are going to come over to preside over the overall situation, and they must organize all the information they can collect as soon as possible in an orderly manner, so that they can present it to the lord for reading, so that the two lords must understand everything here in the shortest possible time.

This is okay, after all, there has been a rumor for a long time, although the time is tight, but He Qing and Tong Hui are prepared, besides, the information has been sorted out on weekdays, and now as long as they pick and choose, sort out the order of priority, anyway, the eighth elder brother is a smart person, so it is not difficult for him to understand the situation as soon as possible.

The other thing is not so simple - the Long Live Lord didn't know what he was thinking, and suddenly said that the great cause of 'changing the dynasty' here might be about to begin, and in order to give better support, he simply drove the entire floating city over.

God, that's the floating city is good, such a big city, to come through the time and space gate, it needs to be consumed, the number of energy can be called huge, not to mention, these years I heard that the energy accumulated in the city is enough to open the floating city, and there are many students who have done special research on this topic, even if the cost is too great, so that everyone will be distressed to death, maybe the amount of accumulation is used, and the cost will be consumed, and more importantly, the floating city will move, even if there is a hidden magic circle on it, but it will set off a movement, It's definitely not small, if you don't get it right, maybe it will be earth-shattering.

This is not a big deal in the Great Reckoning, but if it comes to this place, I'm afraid it will be......

Thinking of that situation, He Qing blinked, I don't know why, he actually had a bit of bad taste, and he really wanted to see what the reaction of these people here was.

These two not trivial things rested on his shoulders at the same time, so that He Qing had to disturb his own teacher who was on vacation, and many trivial things had to be arranged in advance, for example, the eighth master and the master, where do they live here, how to arrange their identities, whether they are high-profile, or live behind the scenes. Where does the floating city stop, do you drive directly over the capital, closer to the teacher, or find a place near the sea to stop as before. And then there are the students of the school, whether they are going to live in the floating city forever or make their home on the ground......

Although these are trivial things, if they can't be arranged in advance, there may be chaos in the future, and then he will be embarrassed.

Sure enough, things didn't come out of He Qing's expectations, and they were really a bit earth-shattering.

Three days later.

The wind and thunder are rolling, and the sky is full of purple clouds.

In the Qing Dynasty, this is a good omen, in addition to some idle ministers who have nothing to do and write to the new emperor to congratulate the new emperor, the common people and the Manchurian nobles in the capital have been very accustomed to it, there are those who are calm by nature, and they no longer have the mind to look up, after all, more sensational and surprising scenes than this, they have not never seen it, and now such a 'loud 'ring', compared with the past, is really pediatric.

But in the world of the Red Mansion, it is a vision, which makes the military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty tremble, His Majesty the Emperor who is sitting on the dragon chair, and the Emperor Taishang, who has stepped off the dragon chair, but is not yet at ease, is still very concerned about national affairs, and he has not slept well every day these days, and it is obvious that he even has dark circles under his eyes.

Because of the famine in recent years, often just after the flood has passed, and then the drought is continuous, and some areas with barren land have even not harvested for two or three years. Therefore, it is not surprising that the rebellions in various places once again showed a straight upward trend, and because of this, this vision was a bad omen in the eyes of the group of people in the Qin Tianjian, and many ministers wrote to the emperor and asked to worship the heavens.

When the heavenly 'vision' began, Zhiyun was sitting in front of the window reading an ancient parchment alchemy notebook, because the age is too old, and the words are also very profound, difficult to understand, and very hidden ancient demons, which have been proven to be fallacies There are countless places, after all, magic is also a science, as long as it is a knowledge, it will continue to develop and progress, many of the truths believed by mages in ancient times, after thousands of years, a large part of them have been confirmed by generations of mages to be purely wrong......

Zhiyun held the book in her hand and carefully analyzed it line by line, picking up useful things out little by little in a large pile of garbage, which really made her favorite research-loving 'tech nerd' also have a headache.

As a result, the spatial magic fluctuations in the sky came wave after wave, and after a while, Zhiyun couldn't read anymore, pushed open the door, stepped out, and saw Yuanyuan holding Hongxi with one hand, standing on the top of the pavilion at the top of the rockery, looking up at the sky desperately.
