Return of the Swallow

The outer courtyard was bustling at this time, and there were faint sounds of babbling singing, and servants and maids hurried past near the alley and rockery.

Afraid of bumping into Qin Huaiyuan's distinguished guests, Qin Yining hurriedly went around a secluded path through Moon Gate, and turned a corner to the place Liu Ya told him earlier.

This place is also used for meeting guests in the outer courtyard on weekdays, but the place is narrow and the location is skewed, obviously it is used by people with low status.

Qin Yining entered the courtyard and saw a tall and thin man standing with his back to him. The snow-white cape he was wearing was very familiar. A thirteen or four-year-old servant beside him had already seen her. , busy salute.

The man turned around, and it turned out to be the young man Qin Yining had met at Ning Wangfu.

She was a little surprised.

According to her guess, this should be the son of King Ning who once became the emperor's prince.

Unexpectedly, King Ning would let him do it himself.

How could he be wronged in this remote courtyard with his distinguished status?

It turned out to be your honorable driver, Qin Yining bowed and saluted, the servants are reckless, and they are wronged to wait here. I immediately ordered them to prepare the main hall.

The young man laughed lightly when he heard the words, his eyebrows stretched slightly, his eyes were bright and his voice was very gentle.

You don't have to worry about it, girl. I asked them to take me to a remote place. After all, my match was three days later. Today, the grand master banquets guests. There are too many acquaintances. It's not good to see me today.

What is my scene in three days?

Qin Yining remembered that the old lady just now said that the feast of the prince's invitation to the teacher was three days later.

Qin Yining was startled, knelt down and gave a big gift, It turned out to be His Royal Highness, the little girl is reckless and reckless, please forgive me.

When Qiu Lu heard that this turned out to be the prince, her hands were cold, and she knelt down with a plop.

When you and I met, I didn't care about each other's identities, so why are you nervous now? My real name is Yuchiyan, and my name is Qingyan. The girl just needs to know a friend, or know your father's apprentice. Yuchiyan stretched out her hand to help him.

I dare not. Qin Yining stood up, took two steps back and said politely, I guessed the identity of Your Highness by mistake in the past. If you are negligent in your words, please forgive me.

Oh? Who do you think I am here? Yuchiyan's focus was obviously different from what Qin Yining said.

Qin Yining bowed his head and said, I thought you were the one who was adopted by King Ning.

Yuchiyan chuckled softly: Why do you think I am the one? We are not alike at all, and he is older than me.

Qin Yining replied respectfully, I guessed from your words and deeds, your name for Prince Ning, and your performance in Prince Ning's mansion, but the ministers and daughters never imagined that you were His Royal Highness, and even babbled about your paintings. , I'm really ashamed.

No, what you said that day was very helpful to me, it can be said to be enlightening, let me understand that a good painting is not a skillful skill, but a real understanding of the world, and the painting Only things that reflect the truest form can give a painting a soul. Speaking of the painting, Yuchiyan talked incessantly, her eyes were glowing: If I were not the prince, I would really like to walk around and see it with my own eyes. Looking at these thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, I must be able to draw paintings with souls.

Qin Yining lowered her eyes when she heard the words, hiding the emotions in her eyes.

It seems that His Royal Highness is really addicted to calligraphy and painting.

However, as the crown prince of a country, is it not good that he is still so leisurely when Dayan is in turmoil?

His Royal Highness, why did you send me that pair of Eight Horses? Qin Yining brought the topic back to the right track.

Yuchiyan regained her senses and said with a smile, Oh, that painting is not suitable for Ning Wang's mansion. It's okay to give it to the girl and hang it up. And for this time to be successful, it's also a thank you to the girl.

Qin Yining understood as soon as he heard it.

In that painting, the head horse did not take the lead, which can be interpreted as several meanings.

It can be said that it alludes to the emperor in the first place but not doing business.

It can also be interpreted as the top horse who plays a leading role but is behind the others.

Hanging this painting in the homes of people who are qualified to inherit the throne will make people with intentions arrange that King Ning has the heart to mock the Son of Heaven, and even more, it can be associated with his intention to be a minister. Hanging it in a little woman's room won't let anyone think too much.

As for the thank you for the achievement, it is probably because the Grand Master Cao, who successfully participated in King Ning, lost his official position.

But Qin Yining still didn't want this painting.

The crown prince gave the painting, I shouldn't have declined. But after all, there are differences between men and women, so please ask the crown prince to take this painting back. After speaking, he asked Qiu Lu to pick up the painting.

Yuchi Yan frowned upon hearing this, and his entourage immediately stopped Qiu Lu.

Why does the girl have to be like me? Even the girl doesn't do anything, your father is already a master, and he is tied to my East Palace. Maybe even the girl's future will be tied to the East Palace, and now he refuses. , what does it mean?

Qin Yining was shocked when she heard the words, and looked up at Yuchiyan uncertainly.

Yuchi Yan was staring at her, her eyes full of meaning, and the prince's fair skin was slowly turning red, even the neck next to the collar of the snow-white beard's armpit hair was red.

Yuchiyan met Qin Yining's clear watery gaze, but couldn't hold on for two breaths, so she turned her eyes away with a heart-warming face, covered her mouth and coughed twice, and then said, Let's keep that painting, girl, if you don't want it, You burn it. I still have business, so I won't delay the girl. Farewell.

When the voice fell, he turned and walked away.

Qin Yining looked at the back of him leading people away in a hurry, and a word came to mind - run away.

She was a little dignified.

What the prince said just now is very clear. Could it be that her future is really tied to the East Palace as everyone guessed?

Looking at the meaning of the prince, he has this idea.

And now that she is the daughter of the Grand Master, her status is enough.

But for some unknown reason, Qin Yining didn't have any idea that he was about to become rich and noble, and maybe there would be a day when he would be able to have the joy of being a mother in the world.

This kind of day is not what she wants.

She just wanted her family to live in peace and live her own life in a normal way, not seeking wealth or honor, but only seeking security and stability.

A woman who is a prince and a woman who is an emperor will not be safe.

However, if such a thing really happened, could she refuse?

Now that my father has become a master, it means that he has already stood in line, and he is not a wait-and-see faction. In order to stabilize his position, marriage is the best way. If the father really wants to marry the Tian family, she is the only candidate to marry the prince.

As the daughter of the Qin family, she can't refuse this arrangement, and in the eyes of others, this kind of future is already a supreme honor, and it will be envied by many people.

All the way back to Sydney Courtyard, Qin Yining was silent.

Qiu Lu witnessed the scene just now, and her face was still red. It could be seen that Qin Yining didn't speak, and she didn't dare to say anything.

When he went back to his room and looked at the painting again, Qin Yining felt agitated.

Put this painting away.

Yes. Just as Qiu Lu was about to stretch out her hand to clean up, she heard a little girl outside saying, Miss Huining and Miss Liu are here.

As soon as the words fell, before Qin Yining could speak, he saw the curtain of the main room opened, Qin Huining and the sixth miss Qin Shuangning came together, each followed by his own maid.

I have nothing to do, come and sit here, the fourth sister will not mind. Sixth Miss said, she had already sat at the table of the Eight Immortals by herself.

Qin Huining also sat down with Shi Shiran.

Qin Yining raised her eyebrows, Naturally I don't mind, but it's just strange that Sixth Sister and Miss Huining obviously don't like me, so why come to me to beg you. Qiu Lu, pack up the paintings, Liu Ya, serve tea.

Miss Liu and Qin Huining could not have imagined that Qin Yining didn't even do superficial work, but she said it directly, her face stiffened for a moment.

Qiu Lu and Liu Ya went to work as instructed.

However, Miss Liu saw that Qiu Lu was about to roll up the Eight Horses, so she stepped forward and grabbed it, saying, I didn't expect you to have paintings here, would you appreciate this?

When the painting is unfolded, the inscription of Qingyan Layman comes into view.

Seeing this, Miss Six burst into laughter, threw the painting on the ground, and said out of breath, If you say that you are a savage, you still don't admit it, a fake painting deserves to be called such a treasure. People pack up.

Qin Huining looked down and saw the inscription of the painting, and was excited, is this the painting made by the prince?

Qiu Lu hurriedly put away the painting, for fear that Miss Six would stomp on the painting.

Qin Yining was already angry, Of course I don't understand this, but I grew up in the countryside, so Miss Six also grew up in the mountains? I don't know what politeness is? Miss Six and Sister Seven are obviously from the same mother, so why are they so different in temperament? So big? It seems that the people who were raised by the mother's side are really more knowledgeable and reasonable, and these truths will not deceive me.

Sixth Miss's laughter stopped abruptly and sneered: Don't be complacent! It's just a fake painting. His Royal Highness's painting is never given away easily. You are just a little girl, don't use chicken feathers as an arrow!

What do I have to be proud of? Everything I have is for granted, why should I be proud? Qin Yining automatically ignored her second half of her words.

Qin Huining listened to the alarm bell: Could it be that the painting was really sent by the prince? How did Qin Yining hook up with the prince? Could it be that Qin Yining will really be a princess in the future?

Qin Huining was unwilling, her expression became unbearable, her smile was stiff, and her eyes were malicious and said:

Looking at Little Sister Xiaoxi's house, there are now two big maids missing, so she doesn't look good. Why don't you have a mouthful of hot tea for us?

Without people, it's not that the upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked? The wild hoof raises thieves, and steals the old lady's things! Miss Liu laughed and said, You can also use a fake painting. Come and show prestige.

Qin Yining clenched his fists tightly.

What should I do, she wants to beat someone again!

Who knew that at this moment, there was a sudden sound of footsteps in the yard. Qin Yining got up to look, and saw two beautiful maids of fifteen or sixteen years old coming in with a group of stout women.

Seeing Qin Yining standing under the corridor, the two maids gave a big gift.

The slave servant Yaoqin (Jade Chess) greets the fourth girl. The grand master in front of you had a banquet for the guests, and the guests and female relatives gave a lot of gifts to the girl.

The two maids said to get out of the way, and the rough maid behind them moved the various gift boxes into the house one by one.

When Qin Huining and Miss Six saw so many gifts, their eyes couldn't see enough, and they all turned black.

What does it mean? He just laughed at her, did this person bring so many gifts to hit them in the face!
