On the way from the Eldest Princess's Mansion to the Beimu Palace, I happened to pass through the main street in front of the Yongchang Marquis Mansion, but Qin Guanming blocked the way on the way.

"Second brother? What are you doing here?" Qin Chaojiu was slightly stunned, and invited Qin Guanming to get into the carriage: "The weather is so cold today, why are you dressed so thinly?"

After Qin Guanming got into the carriage, Zhujie immediately handed over a soup woman: "Second son, warm your hands."

"Hmm."

He replied in a low voice, and when the warm soup woman arrived in his hand, Qin Guanming suddenly realized that his hand was already frozen to the point that he had no instinct.

He just stood outside for a while, and he was about to freeze.

"Isn't the banquet in the Eldest Princess's Mansion just begun, why did you come out so quickly?" Qin Guanming asked suspiciously.

Thinking of what happened at the banquet, Qin Chaojiu shook his head casually and said, "It's nothing, it's just that I'm not used to it, so I came out first."

"Also, I heard that today is a poetry appreciation party, and you have no ink in your stomach, so you naturally feel bored." Qin Guanming opened his mouth as a matter of course.

Qin Chaojiu's expression stiffened slightly, and he suddenly regretted letting him get into this carriage, so he should have been allowed to freeze to death on the side of the road.

At least dead people don't deliberately speak disgusting people.

Zhujie also regretted it, regretting that he handed him a soup woman who warmed his hands.

"Miss Shen Wu is also there?"

Qin Guanming suddenly opened his mouth and asked about Shen Yajun without a clue.

When the words fell, it seemed that he himself realized that something was wrong, and explained, "Miss Shen Wu and Jingxi have always been friends, if she is here, Jingxi can have some fun."

"Huh."

Qin Chaojiu sneered twice, her good-looking eyebrows were slightly raised, her slender fingers were put together, and her palms turned outward: "If the second brother has nothing else to do, please go down, I still have to go to the Beimu Palace, and the second brother is not on the way."

Qin Guanming's expression was stunned: "You haven't answered my words yet."

Qin Chaojiu tilted his head: "Since the second brother cares about your sister Jingxi, just go to the eldest princess's mansion and ask by yourself, ask me what to do, and I don't care about her, Zhujie, send the second son off the carriage."

"Yes! Second son, please."

Qin Guanming snorted angrily: "I don't need you to send it, I can go down by myself."

The moment he pushed open the carriage door, Qin Guanming regretted it.

The biting cold wind was coming, and he couldn't help but shiver.

But when he wanted to sit back in the carriage again, he couldn't hold his face, so he had to bite the bullet.

"Miss, why is the second son here?" Zhu Jie couldn't figure it out, and looked at Qin Guanming's figure farther and farther away from the car window. Z.br>

Qin Chaojiu shook his head: "I don't know either, but...... It's a little suspicious."

Suddenly, Qin Chaojiu's eyes showed a gleam, and when the carriage drove to the corner of the intersection in front, Qin Chaojiu suddenly ordered to stop, letting the winter lotus root go back to the Hou Mansion first, and he quietly turned back with the bamboo knot.

"Miss, it's freezing, you can come back early." Winter Lotus asked with concern.

Qin Chaojiu had already pulled the bamboo knot and walked away.

"Miss, where are we going?" The bamboo knot was puzzled, but the pace under his feet couldn't help but follow Qin Chaojiu lightly and slowly.

It's like a cat catching mice, for fear that the action will be too big and it will startle the snake.

"Don't you want to know what the second son is doing? Shall we know quietly in the past?" Qin Chaojiu smiled, and the breath of gossip flashed in the depths of his eyes.

"This ...... Not really, right?" There was hesitation in Zhujie's eyes, but in the next second, she suddenly stretched her finger forward, pointed to the "Pinjia Building" in front of her and said, "Miss, let's go to Pinjia Building, there is an observation deck in Pinjia Building on the third floor, with a wide field of vision, and you can see everything clearly from top to bottom."

"Let's go!"

Qin Chaojiu immediately left, and the master and servant went straight to Pinjialou.

Eating a snack

, Drinking warm tea, Qin Chaojiu lazily looked at Qin Guanming below through the gap in the window.

I saw that he was shivering from the cold, and in order not to let himself be frozen, he had to pace back and forth in place to activate his body.

The north wind was howling, and he shivered from time to time.

Despite this, he was already standing under a tree and refused to leave, and there were no servants or subordinates in the Hou Mansion beside him.

Not even a single person who gave him a piece of clothing.

"Little Er, give you an errand, and this ingot of silver will be yours after you finish it."

Qin Chaojiu suddenly called the shopkeeper of Pinjialou over, and after quietly ordering a few words, he gave him a silver ingot.

Not long after, a vendor selling gloves and necks appeared next to Qin Guanming, and took the initiative to step forward and ask, "This son, do you want a warm glove scarf?" I'm going to have a hot soup lady here."

Qin Guanming touched his pocket, but he didn't find a penny, but it was really cold, and finally he gritted his teeth and took off the silver crown on his head, handed it to the vendor, and said, "It's worth it."

"Oh, thank you, Childe."

Not long after, the delicately crafted silver crown on Qin Guanming's head appeared in Qin Chaojiu's hand.

Zhu Jie asked puzzledly, "Miss, since you care about the second son, why don't you tell him directly, and use this way?"

Qin Chaojiu raised his eyes: "Have you forgotten what we are here for?"

"Yes! Bamboo suddenly sighed like a realization.

"So of course you can't let him know we're here." Qin Chaojiu opened her mouth as a matter of course, but in fact, she was reluctant to come forward in person, and there were other unspeakable reasons.

About an hour or so passed, and when a woman's silhouette suddenly appeared in sight, Qin Chaojiu suddenly stood up with a spirit.

After waiting for a long time, she was going to fall asleep.

The show is finally here!

Who's that?

Looking down from Pinjialou, only a back can be seen from this angle, and Qin Chaojiu's eyes instantly widened.

Why does that dress look so familiar?

The woman suddenly turned down slightly, and Qin Chaojiu saw clearly at a glance that it was Shen Yajun!

No wonder!

No wonder he just came to the carriage and asked himself about the banquet, and then asked about Miss Shen Wu.

It turned out that he was waiting for her.

"What are they talking about?"

Qin Chaojiu pricked up his ears and tried to listen, but he could only hear the north wind whistling by, and he couldn't hear any sound.

Her big eyes full of gossip flickered, but she could only see Qin Guanming standing in the top wind, using her body as a baffle to resist the cold wind for Shen Yajun, and the two stood face to face, talking and laughing.

Suddenly, Shen Yajun made a move.

She raised her hand and pinned Qin Guanming's long sideburns that had been ramped by the wind behind her ears, and her plain white and clean hand stopped at the side of Qin Guanming's face.

For a moment, Qin Chaojiu was dumbfounded.

These two ......

Something's wrong!

At this time, under the roadside tree.

Shen Yajun was blushing and looking at Qin Guanming and smiled, "You said you are not stupid, why have you been waiting here on such a cold day?" If I hadn't left sooner, wouldn't you have frozen into ice sculptures by the time I got here to see you?"

Qin Guanming sniffed and sneezed as soon as he opened his mouth.

"It can't be sick, right?" Shen Yajun immediately panicked.

Qin Guanming shook his head: "It's okay, I'll go back and drink some ginger soup, it's not early, you can go back early."

"Well, you go first, I'm watching you here."

"You go first."

The two of them were humble, but no one would leave half a step first.

Shen Yajun raised his hand and gently pushed Qin Guanming: "Go back quickly, if you are sick, no one will feel sorry for you."

most

In the end, Qin Guanming couldn't withstand the intrusion of the cold wind, so he turned around and left first. After Qin Guanming's figure disappeared, Shen Yajun turned around, lifted the hem of his skirt and trotted all the way back.

And Qin Chaojiu, who was looking at it all on the third floor, calmly took a piece of pastry and stuffed it into his mouth.

Qin Guanming almost froze himself to death, but he still endured it, just to see Shen Yajun, the two didn't even hold a small hand when they met, they just said a few words, and then dispersed.

I have to say that Qin Guanming is a gentleman. It can also be seen that he really likes Shen Yajun.

Zhujie didn't understand: "Miss, if the second son likes Miss Shen Wu, why don't you propose?" Our Yongchang Marquis Mansion and General Shen's Mansion are also the right match, so why bother...... Do you want to have a secret tryst like this?"

The last four words, Bamboo said in a whisper.

If this matter spreads, Miss Shen's reputation will be ruined.

Although it is said that there are two people, but this world is so unfair, everyone will only say how the woman is not chaste and self-respecting, but it will not affect the man much at all.

"How old is my second brother?" Qin Chaojiu suddenly asked.

Zhujie thought for a moment and replied, "The second son is nineteen."

Qin Chaojiu couldn't help but stare at it, her second brother was nineteen years old, but he had not yet decided to marry, which was indeed a little wrong with his second brother at the age of fifteen or sixteen.

In the past, because she didn't pay much attention to these strange families in the Yongchang Marquis Mansion, she naturally didn't care about these, but now that she thinks about it, it's really wrong.

Could it be ...... His second brother has been waiting for Miss Shen Wu?

Can...... Shen Yajun's marriage is not so easy to decide.

From the time she has been in contact with Shen Yajun, she also vaguely knows why Shen Yajun is obviously one year older than herself, but she is the real reason for the marriage.

There are too many people who want to marry her, and among them, it's not just a good match, she is the only daughter of General Shen.

General Shen is a veteran of the three dynasties and has the emperor's attention, General Shen is now stationed at the border pass, the Shen family has a heavy army, and Shen Yajun's future husband will definitely involve many partisan disputes.

Her marriage must not be decided by herself.

"Let's go, let's go home first."

Qin Chaojiu said lightly: "Today's matter, don't talk to anyone, it's best to rot in your stomach."

"Yes." Bamboo nodded solemnly.

Qin Chaojiu put Qin Guanming's silver crown into his sleeve, got up slowly, and left Pinjialou with the bamboo joints.

Because it was not far from the Yongchang Marquis's Mansion, the master and servant decided to go all the way back.
