The Little Sweet Jujube of the Fool Prince

Although he talked a lot with Gan'er, he still didn't take the initiative to talk to Qiao Yu in the next few days, and the atmosphere between the two became a little delicate for a while.

Qiao Yu wasn't angry at all, he knew Gan'er needed time to digest this matter, so he followed him and didn't push him too much.

Generally, when they meet, they take the initiative to smile at him. If he turns his head away, Qiao Yu won't be disappointed. Instead, it's time to eat and practice calligraphy.

Seeing that Gan'er has learned well, he is not stingy with compliments. Although Gan'er doesn't respond at all, there is still some encouragement that should be given.

Although Gan'er was awkward, he could nod to Qiao Yu now, and would keep looking at him when he wasn't paying attention to him.

The situation at the border is not very good recently, so Xiao Qichuan has no time to go to the other courtyard, and Qiao Yu hasn't seen him for almost three days.

"Xiaoman, has he been so busy?" Qiao Yu asked while looking outside the room.

It was already dark, and he didn't come at this hour, so he probably wouldn't come tonight.

"How does this servant know that although this other courtyard is also in the capital, it is far away from the imperial city, sometimes the master can't come once a year." Xiaoman said.

Can't come once a year?

Qiao Yu's expression suddenly dimmed. When she was in Nanxiang Yuan for a few days, she didn't know it was a brothel, but she heard many things from the maids who served her.

Where did who get married, what was their life like, what was their sedan chair like, how long was their wedding team, who fell out of favor, and their life was very miserable.

Is it the same for me now, Qi Chuan still likes me, so he will come to find me when he is free, but he will not come if he is not free.

Further on... "Xiaoman, I heard that many rich families have concubines, housekeepers, and girls who serve as bed servants. Do you have any of these?" Qiao Yu pursed her lips a little nervously. asked.

"Well..." Xiaoman tilted her head: "Even if there are, they are raised in the mansion, and it has nothing to do with the young master."

Where does Xiaoman know what life is like in Xiao Qichuan, but his master is the regent, isn't it normal to have these things?There is only Qiao Yu in this other courtyard, which also represents the love of the master.

Qiao Yu kissed her lower lip, and her heart was full of emotions. It wasn't that she didn't believe it, but that she was a little scared.In the past few days without him by my side, will he be accompanied by others?

When Xiao Qichuan pushed open the study door, it was almost midnight, he shook his stiff neck, and was about to go back to the room to rest.

"Master." Wu Yi suddenly stepped forward.

"what happened?"

"Just received the news that there seems to be something wrong with Uncle Ling in the past two days." Wu Yi bowed his head and said.

Xiao Qichuan narrowed his eyes, then turned around and opened the study door: "Tell me."

"Uncle Ling used to send news to the post station every day, but there was no news these two days. Our people at the post station thought it was strange, so we went to look for it, but we couldn't find anyone." Wu Yi said.

Xiao Qichuan knocked on the table and waited for two days at the post station, and it will not be a short time until he knows the news.

"Go find a secret guard who follows Qiao Yu." Xiao Qichuan said suddenly.

"master."

"Has he been out of the house recently?"

Ever since he got together with Qiao Yu, he usually doesn't go out of the house, but because he has no restrictions, he occasionally goes out to buy some pastries.

The dark guard handed over the note recording Qiao Yu's routine.

Xiao Qichuan looked back day by day, and suddenly stopped looking at one day.

"Today, did he meet Yin Yaochu, or pass by each other?"

"No, Mr. Qiao has not had any contact with anyone from the Yin family during the few times he left the mansion recently." The dark guard replied.

This was the second day after he asked him where Uncle Ling was going, and he only went out to buy pastries, which he and Gan'er both ate.

"He entered the store, is anyone following him?"

"As long as Xiaoman is with me, the speed of coming out is not a problem."

Xiao Qichuan nodded, "Let's send more people over there to check the power of the Yin family. If Uncle Ling doesn't encounter a major incident, he can usually resolve it by himself, as long as they respond in time."

After a pause, he added another sentence: "You pick a few smart ones from your subordinates who are good at hiding, and go to find Uncle Ling together. If you find them, don't rush back, just listen to Uncle Ling."

"This subordinate understands." After Wu Yi saluted, he went out with the previous hidden guard.

Xiao Qichuan looked at the piece of paper in front of him, and let out a deep breath. Uncle Ling was like an elder to him. Since his father passed away, he was the only one by his side.

Qiao Yu, I hope this matter has nothing to do with you, and I also hope that Uncle Ling will not have any accidents.

The next day, Xiao Qichuan went to the other courtyard at night, and when they had dinner together, seeing that Gan'er was still unwilling to talk, he didn't say anything else.

"Qi Chuan," there were only two of them at night, Qiao Yu rubbed his eyebrows with his hands, "What's wrong? I think you're very preoccupied today."

"It's nothing to do with the court." Xiao Qichuan put his arms around Qiao Yu's waist, and heaved a sigh of relief: "Have you missed me since you haven't seen me for a few days?"

Qiao Yu took the initiative to sit on Xiao Qichuan's lap: "Well, yes."

"How long will you be busy like this? I think I can see you every day." Qiao Yu swallowed nervously, then looked up at Xiao Qichuan seriously: "Can I live with you?"

Xiao Qichuan's complexion didn't change, but he didn't answer directly either.

Seeing him like this, Qiao Yu was already a little discouraged, but she said everything and didn't want to give up: "This way I can see you every day."

"Even if you go to the mansion, you can't see it every day, and it's not as good as you think." Xiao Qichuan looked at Qiao Yu and said.

"Then I want to get closer to you." Qiao Yu lowered his head, and he had no courage to continue talking.

"If that's the case, I'll ask you to pick you up tomorrow, but you'll have to follow the arrangements of the steward when you enter the mansion, and you may have to learn the rules for a while before you can serve me." Xiao Qichuan said while playing with Qiao Yu's hair.

"Really? Then, what about Gan'er? Can you go too?" Qiao Yu asked with wide eyes.

"He probably doesn't want it right now. It's okay. I'll explain later. If he wants to, he will be with you. If he doesn't want to this time, he will miss you later and let them send him there." Xiao Qichuan lowered his eyelids, so Joe Yu didn't see how cold his eyes were.

Qiao Yu took the initiative to hug Xiao Qichuan's neck, lowered her head and kissed his cheek, feeling unspeakably happy in her heart, did she get closer to him in this way?

Xiao Qichuan picked up Qiao Yu and walked into the inner room.

Qiao Yu put her arms around his neck and said shyly, "You haven't come these few days, so I didn't do anything."

Xiao Qichuan's eyes darkened for a moment, indeed, there is still some food left in his mouth, shouldn't he eat it all up today?

But thinking so, Qiao Yu stopped crying when the pear blossoms were raining, but he couldn't bear to stop.

"No, no, don't cry." Xiao Qichuan hurriedly wiped Qiao Yu's tears, seeing that he was still crying aggrievedly, he could only bow his head, kissing each other teardrop by teardrop.

"I, I..." Qiao Yu twitched: "Yes, I can, Ming... Renren..."

I thought it should be similar to jade, but I really started to make it, only to find out that it is not at all.

"No, no, I haven't done it since I didn't come these days, don't get hurt, don't cry." Xiao Qichuan hugged and coaxed him for a long time, feeling so distressed.

In fact, he was really cruel, and he did it if he did it, but for some reason, no matter how hard he thought before, Xiao Qichuan lost his temper at all when he saw his eyes and tears.

Xiao Qichuan left the mansion early the next morning.

"Don't leave the palace later, the king has come down to the Xianfu to explain something." Xiao Qichuan said.

"Yes!" Wu Yi nodded.

Qiao Yu was still practicing calligraphy in the house, when the steward came: "Young Master Qiao, someone has come from the house and said they want to pick you up."

"Really?" Qiao Yu happily exchanged glances with Xiao Man.

Xiaoman is also full of joy.

"Xiao Man doesn't need to follow, the mansion said that someone will take care of Mr. Qiao." The steward said.

Qiao Yu was stunned for a moment, Xiao Man was stunned, but he could only nod his head in acceptance.

"Don't worry, I'll talk to Grandpa when the time comes, and he will definitely pick you up." Qiao Yu said with a smile.

"Thank you son, servant." Xiao Man saluted happily.

"Where's Dare?" Qiao Yu asked.

"Master Gan'er said that he doesn't want to go." The steward lowered his head and said.

"Oh." Qiao Yu was a little disappointed.

"My lord, don't worry, Young Master Gan'er won't treat you badly in such a place, and the house still lives here. The prince also explained before that if he wants to go, I will send someone to take him there at any time."

The manager had just been brought up recently, and he could see what happened to the one above.Naturally, it is impossible to treat Gan'er badly.

"That said, Mr. Qiao doesn't need to bring anything special, there are all in the house, you just go there." The steward said with a smile.

"Okay, thanks steward."

Xiaoman helped Qiao Yu put on the cloak and sent him outside the door with some reluctance.

"Go back, it's okay." Qiao Yu got on the carriage, waved at Xiaoman, and then saw Gan'er hiding behind the door.

It's not because Gan'er is willing to stay here alone, but because the two of them see each other every day, Gan'er may also think that it's okay to stay like this all the time, and if he leaves for a while, I don't know if Gan'er will compromise because he misses himself?

Qiao Yu felt that it was a bit despicable for him to think so, but he really hoped to see him still slapping his chest and talking about my young master.

When he reached the gate of the mansion, Qiao Yu felt a little nervous. He had never seen such a mansion gate and courtyard wall before, and there were soldiers standing at the gate.

"My lord, please." The servant standing beside him bent down and said.

''Yeah" Qiao Yu swallowed, straightened her waist, she must behave better, and must not embarrass Hanhan.

But this door looks very depressing, as if the one who walked in was himself, but the one who walked out was no longer the same.
