It was already the third watch when Lin Sishen returned to the mansion, the general's mansion was still brightly lit, and there were many generals outside the mansion, walking back and forth anxiously.

Seeing Lin Sishen appearing, they hurriedly surrounded him, surrounded Lin Sishen and went back to the hall.

In the hall, except for General Lin, almost everyone was there, even Lin Sitao, who seldom walked out of the room, and Shen Qingwan sat at the side accompanied by Lan Qing.

As soon as Lin Sishen appeared, the anxious old lady dropped her crutches, pulled her into her arms, and said in a trembling voice: "My dear grandson, where did you go today, and why did you come back now? Scared to death."

Liu Qingyun breathed a sigh of relief, she touched Lin Sishen's shoulder, turned her head and told the family general beside her: "Go and send someone to invite the general back, and say that the young master has returned home safely."

Today, after Lin Sishen got off the carriage at Xichen Temple, she disappeared. General Lin led many people to search around Xichen Temple, but they couldn't find her. He was still searching the mountain behind Xichen Temple.

Sure enough, when she came back late, the general's mansion became a mess. Lin Sishen felt warm in her heart. She hugged her grandmother back, and said coquettishly, "Grandma, I'm fine. Look, I've come back safely."

Liu Qingyun looked her up and down, tugged at the corner of her clothes, and then frowned and found the blood on it: "Why are you so dirty, is this blood? Where did it come from? Are you injured?"

Lin Sishen was wearing a thin tunic, his body was dirty with mud and blood, and his face was wounded. He looked like he had just narrowly escaped death.

The old lady's face turned pale, she pushed Lin Sishen out of her arms, and looked at her: "Is there still an injury?"

Lin Sishen shrugged pretending to be relaxed: "I fell down, it's just a skin trauma, and the blood is not mine. I'll just ask Mo Zhu to apply some medicine for me, mother and grandmother, you don't have to worry."

Although they were all skin traumas, the old lady still felt distressed to death when she saw it. She took Lin Sishen's hand and couldn't help wiping away tears: "Tell me where you went today, whether you were kidnapped or robbed, How can you pay respects to the Buddha in the temple, and you will disappear in a blink of an eye.”

Under the questioning of the old lady and mother, Lin Sishen had no choice but to make up a lie to coax them.

Speaking of it, Lin Sishen's eloquence in making up nonsense is really top-notch. She half-truthfully said that she wanted to walk around Xichen Temple, but unexpectedly found an injured rabbit in the back mountain, and chased it all the way to save it. .

But accidentally, he slipped down the hillside, his body was scratched by branches, and then lost his way in the forest. After walking for a long time, he finally came out of the forest, and then walked all the way back to the general's mansion, so he was delayed a lot of time.

"That rabbit looks so pitiful. If I don't save it, it probably won't survive."

Lin Sishen lowered her eyes and smiled, the rabbit she was talking about was naturally the injured woman.

The old lady nodded in relief: "Although it is a rabbit, it is still a life. Fortunately, you silly child is fine."

Liu Qingyuan coughed lightly, and looked at Shen Qinghou who was silent at the side, feeling a little strange in her heart.

Speaking of which, ever since Lin Sishen disappeared, Shen Qinghou had been with them all the time waiting for Lin Sishen's news. She and the old lady advised her to go back and rest several times, but she declined them all.

Could it be that the princess really has that kind of meaning for Shen'er.

She took a step forward with a smile, and said in a gentle voice: "Since Shen'er is safe and sound, the princess should go back to rest earlier, and don't have to continue to toss with us. Your body is more important."

After hearing the words, the old lady turned her head and glanced at Shen Qinghou, with a look of relief on her face, she touched Lin Sishen's face: "Shen'er, do you know how much the princess is worried about you today, and she stayed with us all day without rest, You have to go and thank the princess."

Lin Sishen's eyes turned cold, she raised her eyes to look at Shen Qinghou with a smile, and said with a smile: "If you can make the princess so worried, what can you do with Sishen."

Shen Qinghou stood not far behind the old lady and did not approach.But what is a little strange is that besides Lan Qing, Lin Sitao is actually the closest person to her.

Shen Qinghou's gaze passed over the old lady and landed on Lin Sishen. Because the candles in the hall were flickering, Lin Sishen did not see her expression clearly.

It was just a faint feeling that since she appeared, Shen Qinghou seemed to have relaxed a little.

Could it be that this woman is worried about her safety?

Lin Sishen sneered in his heart, no matter whether Shen Qingwei knew that she was the one who eavesdropped, no matter whether her worry at this time was true or not, Lin Sishen was not even half moved.

After all, it was Shen Qinghou himself who sent someone to hunt her down.

As if aware of Lin Sishen's sneer that didn't reach his eyes, Shen Qinghou turned his head away, and his indifferent tone was mixed with a trace of complexity: "It's good that you have nothing to do."

Except for the two of them, from the perspective of others, the Princess is a little shy in front of everyone.

The old lady lowered her head and smiled without saying a word. Liu Qingyun and Lin Sitao, who had not spoken all the time, looked at Shen Qingwan with strange expressions.

The injuries on his body were all superficial, and Lin Sishen seemed to be in good spirits. The old lady and Liu Qingyun had no doubts about him, and they were tired after waiting all day.

He hurriedly urged Lin Sishen to go back to treat the wound, take a bath and change clothes, and have a good sleep.

Lin Sishen coaxed the old lady and Liu Qingyun away, and then planned to go back to rest.

The courtyards of Lin Sishen and Shen Qinghou were not far apart, so they happened to be on the way when they went back.

Lan Qing carried a lantern and walked ahead to illuminate, Shen Qinghou followed, and Lin Sishen walked two steps behind her.

Under the long corridor, the lacquered pillars on both sides were dark red, and the lanterns swayed gently with Lan Qing's footsteps. Except for the footsteps of the three of them, the huge courtyard was silent, and the night wind blew through the body and made him feel a little chilly.

Half of Lin Sishen's face was hidden in the darkness, his dark eyes were somewhat probing, staring at the back of the person in front of him without blinking.

On Shen Qinghou's cold face, her expression was calm. She felt the probing gaze of the person behind her, but she didn't turn around. She just spoke suddenly, and her cold voice echoed in the silent wooden corridor: "Mr. Lin, why is this so?" careless?"

Lin Sishen put his arms around his chest, Shi Shiran said: "Sishen acts recklessly and is very curious, so it is inevitable that he will make some small mistakes."

Little mistake?She would have shied away.

Shen Qinghou paused, and she turned her head slowly. Under the dark light, her delicate and cold face seemed to be tinged with warmth, but those dark and beautiful eyes were still so deep that people couldn't see through them. dark.

"After all, there are many people in the General's Mansion who are staring at him openly and secretly. Mr. Lin, it is better to be more cautious in his actions in the future. There is nothing wrong with being curious, but if you are too curious, you will get into trouble."

Her voice was cold and pleasant, like a gentle whisper, but the deep meaning in her words made Lin Sishen's heart shudder.

Sure enough, Shen Qinghou knew that she was the one who eavesdropped in Xichen Temple.

And what she said was implying that she had better not meddle in other people's business? Lin Sishen frowned slightly, and she looked at Shen Qingwei with a half-smile, but felt that the woman in front of her was like a cloud of mist, and she couldn't see it no matter what. Do not wear mystery.

She even felt that Shen Qinghou's identity was not just that of Princess Qingyang, perhaps in the dark, she was still playing another role, a dangerous and ruthless one.

The smile on Lin Sishen's face remained undiminished: "Thank you Princess for reminding, Sishen should act cautiously in the future."

Shen Qinghou's eyes fell on Lin Sishen's thin figure, she frowned slightly as if she wanted to say something, but she didn't speak.

It was a little cold when the night wind blew past, Lin Sishen subconsciously rubbed his arms together.

Shen Qinghou turned her back to her, and there seemed to be a hint of tenderness mixed in her cold tone: "You... go back earlier, don't catch a cold."

Lin Sishen froze for a moment, and was about to speak, but Shen Qinghou had already stepped forward.

Lin Sishen crossed his arms, stared at her back for a long while, until he saw that she deliberately slowed down as if she was waiting for him, then he shook his head and followed quickly.
