"It's nonsense!"

Shen Qingqiu sat on the Taishi chair in the middle hall, he was about in his early forties, his outstanding facial features were still difficult to hide the prosperous face of his youth, his eyebrows revealed an awe-inspiring righteousness, and the beard under his chin added a calm and restrained charm to him.

At this time, his face was pale, and he slapped his palm on the case, and the case suddenly trembled.

Mrs. Shen looked at the case made of rosewood distressedly, and said softly: "Master, what happened, why are you so angry?" ”

Shen Qingqiu blew his beard and glared at the teacup, took a sip, and then said: "I have been looking for a matchmaker to match her relatives recently, but I don't know that the matchmaker shook her head when she heard it, saying that the sons and brothers in the city are not worthy of our family." ”

"Is that so?"

Mrs. Shen was born extremely soft, and time seemed to favor her very much, but at the age of almost forty, she could not see half of the traces of being rolled by the years. There was a gentle smile on her lips, which seemed even more gentle and moving.

"There's nothing wrong with what the matchmaker said, but what are you doing so angry?"

Shen Qingqiu glanced at Mrs. Shen and snorted coldly, "The matchmaker is euphemistic!" After I asked someone to inquire, I found out that these people don't think they are worthy of being a disaster! ”

"This ......" Mrs. Shen frowned slightly, and there was a trace of puzzlement in her eyes, "Why should you avoid it if you are the best among the young women in the Beiluo Sect?" ”

"Of course we know this, but do the people outside know? Over the years, in order to protect her, she was rarely allowed to go out, and even if she went out, she wore a hat, how do people know what she looks like? Originally, everyone thought it was nothing, but how could my niece be sent to the city lord? ”

Shen Qingqiu said and took another sip of tea from the teacup, suppressed his anger, and said, "Do you know what this girl has done?" ”

Mrs. Shen shook her head suspiciously.

"She found someone to draw a portrait of her, and sent people to spread it all over the city!"

"Portrait? So why ......"

Now Mrs. Shen didn't understand even more, since there are portraits, with their beautiful appearance, these people should be eager to flock to them.

Shen Qingqiu saw Mrs. Shen's thoughts, and said angrily: "Hmph, if it is really her original appearance, it is estimated that the threshold of the City Lord's Mansion will be broken by the matchmaker." She just pinched the people in the city and didn't know what she looked like, so she found someone to draw a very ugly woman, and said that it was her when she came to the city, and the more outrageous it became, saying that she ate eight bowls of rice at a time, ate five meals a day, slept and snored, had no talent and no virtue, and slept all day long except for eating! ”

"This ......"

Mrs. Shen's eyes gradually gathered a smile, she tried her best to suppress the corners of her upturned mouth, she can't laugh now, her own master is still angry, so she still has to give him some face.

She cleared her throat and reassured, "These are all rumors, and they will always be self-defeating. ”

Shen Qingqiu was even more angry when she caught a glimpse of the smile in her eyes, "If these are from other people's mouths, it's fine, but these are all from the City Lord's Mansion, which makes these rumors even more confirmed, and now the whole city knows that my niece Shen Qingqiu has an ugly appearance and vulgar behavior, and the more I explain, the more people think I'm weak-hearted!" ”

Mrs. Shen finally couldn't hold back, and burst out laughing.

Hundreds of steels will eventually turn into finger wrapping, and Shen Qingqiu's anger gradually faded away in Mrs. Shen's laughter, and the wind and waves were calm, and there were no more waves. He looked at Mrs. Shen with affectionate and gentle eyes, and his tone was full of helplessness, "You, you know that you are used to her." ”

"Why does the master really want her to marry? The two of you are often like two children, today she will not burn your sword book, tomorrow you will scare her to choose a husband for her. Which of these little actions did by Wanwan was not tacitly approved by you, master? ”

Mrs. Shen shook her head, her beautiful smile was as soft as a spring breeze, caressing every wisp of Shen Qingqiu's soul, and a faint smile appeared on his face unconsciously.

Mrs. Shen said again: "Wanwan has been eccentric since she was a child, isn't this the reason why we like her?" We have been married for many years and have never had children, since we have Wanwan, our ordinary life has become a lot more lively, in my heart she is my daughter, isn't the same with the master? ”

Shen Qingqiu patted Mrs. Shen's hand lightly and nodded with a smile.

Outside the door, Lin Wanwan was walking with leisurely steps.

"Uncle, aunt."

When she walked to them, she blessed them with an elegant and decent demeanor.

Shen Qingqiu cleared her throat, took away her smile, and looked at her with a straight face, "Where are you going to mess around?" ”

"What, what?" Lin Wanwan didn't expect Shen Qingqiu to suddenly ask her this, she was thinking about how to fight with him all the way.

Shen Qingqiu glanced at the attendant next to him, and several bags were scattered in front of Lin Wanwan, and the silver tickets and clothes inside were scattered all over the ground.

Shen Qingqiu picked up the teacup, took a sip calmly, and asked, "Then tell me, what do you do to pack these burdens?" ”

“……”

Lin Wanwan stared at the scattered burdens in front of her, and glanced at Shen Qingqiu with some weakness.

Mrs. Shen also put away her gentle smile on weekdays and looked at Lin Wanwan with a solemn face.

Shen Qingqiu's face sank a little, and there was an invisible courage in his eyes, "Where are you going?" ”

"I ......"

Lin Wanwan's eyes dodged and quickly lowered his head, complaining in his heart, how could he be discovered? Aren't they supposed to care about the rumors out there? She finally spread the rumors just to divert the target, who knew that her uncle would find out so quickly.

"Don't say? Come on, bring the warm smoke and rain sleep! ”

With Shen Qingqiu's order, a sweet and delicate girl and a young man with a jade tree in the wind were brought into the hall by the attendants.

Nuan Yan and Yusu leaned over and saluted Shen Qingqiu and Mrs. Shen, "City Lord, Madam." ”

Shen Qingqiu glanced at them, "Say, where is Miss going?" ”

“……”

Nuan Yan and Yusu looked at Lin Wanwan in unison, with a good expression.

"Huh?"

Shen Qingqiu's voice was not angry, but it was full of deterrence, and the two looked left and right, engaged in a fierce ideological struggle.

"Miss her, miss she ......"

Lin Wanwan looked at the two people who were in a dilemma, a little unbearable, sighed lightly, and said, "Okay, okay, don't embarrass them." I say, I say it. ”

She knelt down on the ground and saluted them, "Uncle, aunt, Wanwan is going to Nanling." ”

"Nonsense!"

"Wanwan?"

Shen Qingqiu's scolding and Mrs. Shen's surprised inquiry sounded at the same time.

"What? Is it my Beiluo Shimen City Lord's Mansion that can't accommodate your big Buddha? Now that your wings are stiff, you want to run away from your uncle and aunt? ”

Shen Qingqiu's face was very ugly, and there was a hint of fierceness in her tone, and Mrs. Shen finally understood why her master was angry just now.

She reluctantly pulled out a gentle smile, helped Lin Wanwan up, and persuaded softly: "Wanwan, what are you doing in Nanling?" The situation there is so chaotic right now, you can go somewhere else if you want to go out and play. Isn't Beiming also good? Besides, Rong Sui is also in Beiming, doesn't that kid often write to you? ”

Lin Wanwan looked at her aunt's gentle and loving gaze, and the only soft place in her heart was rubbed back and forth, with a thousand attachments and reluctance.

She sniffed, suppressed the mist that gradually gathered in her eyes, and said solemnly: "Uncle, aunt, it is precisely because the situation in Nanling is becoming increasingly chaotic that I want to go to Nanling. In recent years, the four countries have been calm on the surface, but in fact, there has long been an undercurrent, and now the situation in Nanling is only afraid that the other three countries are eyeing each other. If I don't make any moves in the north, I'm afraid that after the Nanling City is broken, it will be the turn of the Beiluo division next! ”

"You ......" Shen Qingqiu paused, his thick eyebrows furrowed tightly, and a trace of complexity flashed in his eyes, "You have been using the Flying Flower Pavilion to probe the news of Nanling?" ”

"Yes. I have found out that the forces of one of the other three countries are infiltrating Nanling and disappearing. Lin Wanwan's eyebrows were shrouded in a faint layer of melancholy, and there was a trace of small waves in his clear eyes, but he was full of unshakable determination, "I went this time to fight with him in this game of chess in Nanling." ”

Madame Shen looked at her in disbelief, her eyes becoming more and more complicated, with worry, doubt, and faint sadness, her lips moved, but she didn't say anything, and a thousand words could only turn into silent sighs.

Shen Qingqiu's face suddenly sank, his eyes showed a solemn look, and he scolded sharply: "It's just nonsense! No matter how much trouble you make on weekdays, I can turn a blind eye, but this is the only thing, no! Do you think the battle between the four countries is child's play?! ”

Lin Wanwan bit her red lips tightly, clenched her fingers, tried her best to restrain the crazy and complex emotions in her heart, and said in an orderly manner: "Uncle, didn't you teach me since I was a child that benevolence and righteousness come first, and the common people are important?" If the Beiluo Shimen becomes a sword, what ability do we have to protect the people in the city? Although the previous city lords can't leave the Beiluo Division, I can. No matter what the situation in Nanling is now, we have to try it, don't we? If I can get lucky enough to control Nanling's chessboard, at least there is a glimmer of life. ”

"What if not?"

Lin Wanwan closed her eyes slightly, and when she opened her eyes again, her face seemed to be covered with a layer of frost, and the bottom of her eyes crossed the ruthless Limang, "If you can't, then don't blame me for not remembering the old love." How could the other two countries not be interested in this game of chess in Nanling? ”

Shen Qingqiu saw the coldness in her eyes, her heart sank, she stared at her with a complicated expression, and was silent for a long time before she sighed heavily.

"I really don't know if it's right or wrong to hand over the Flying Flower Pavilion to you early."

After that, he took out a token from the placket of his clothes and handed it to Lin Wanwan, "This is the Moon Saving Order of Bang Yue Lou, and in the future, I will hand it over to you." You remember—"

Shen Qingqiu's eyes looked into the distance, his gaze was far-reaching and blurry, as if he had fallen into a long memory, and said thoughtfully: "You go this time, if he really has the ability to take Nanling, you can help him." However, we must not let the other two countries get involved, otherwise the tragedy of the Great War of the Four Nations 300 years ago will be repeated, and then the lives will be destroyed and the corpses will be scattered all over the field. ”

"Uncle?"

Lin Wanwan took the moon saving order in surprise, her face full of confusion. After the Shikoku War, the Beiluo Shimen has been existing outside the Shikoku War, maintaining neutrality, after the armistice agreement a hundred years ago, the Shikoku began to continue to woo the Beiluo Shimen, and also sent the prince to practice martial arts, the successive city lords and uncles have never wavered half a point, why does the uncle let her help him now?

Shen Qingqiu's gaze still stayed in the distance, as if he had traveled through the dusty history, revealing a sense of loss, "This world will be divided for a long time, and it will be together for a long time, and after four hundred years, I can't escape the fate of the world being one!" If you want to choose the master, then choose him. ”

"Why is he ......" Lin Wanwan's eyes were filled with a layer of mist, ethereal and misty, her voice was very soft, so light that no one could hear the unwillingness in her words.

Shen Qingqiu retracted his fluttering gaze, his face softened, and he looked at Lin Wanwan lovingly, "Uncle is old, and he can't leave this Beiluo Division, and the safety of the Beiluo Division will be handed over to you in the future." ”

Lin Wanwan's eyebrows moved slightly, she was silent, and respectfully saluted Shen Qingqiu and Mrs. Shen: "Wanwan understands." Uncle and aunt, that Wanwan went to pack up her baggage first. ”

"Remember to let Jiaojiao report her family safely." Shen Qingqiu reminded lightly, and then waved his hand, "Go ahead." ”

Lin Wanwan's heart sank, and he said quietly: "I know." ”

After Lin Wanwan retreated with warm smoke and rain, Mrs. Shen finally couldn't help it, and she asked puzzledly, "Master, why are you doing this?" ”

"Alas, what a bad fate! When that kid came to me, I had a bet with him, and now—" A meaningful smile appeared on Shen Qingqiu's face, "It's worthy of being the person I like, this kid is really not a thing in the pool." ”
