Enter the red building

Chapter [-] Ten Years Passed

"Shang'er, why are you sweating so much again?" Shui Linglong asked a boy about seven years old with a smile, wearing a blue dress and her hair in a bun like a woman's makeup.

Although the boy is only seven years old, his appearance is already handsome. It can be seen that when he grows up, he will be a handsome young man again, with white jade-like skin, lips that are neither thick nor thin, a straight nose, and a pair of bright and bright eyes. Xue Qiu's expression was a little arrogant, and there was a sense of nobility exuding from his body.

This boy is exactly the child of Shui Linglong and Xue Qiu - Xue Wushang.

Holding a wooden sword in his hand, Xue Wushang hurried to Shui Linglong's side, raised his head and asked, "Mother, father took my brother out again. Why didn't father take me out to play?"

Shui Linglong took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat off Xue Wushang's face, and explained softly: "Your father should be taking your brother to Doctor Zhou."

However, Xue Wushang slammed the wooden sword in his hand, and said angrily, "It's not at all, my brother said he wanted to go to White Horse Lake, so my father took him there. My father always only has my brother in his heart. "

Shui Linglong smiled, and winked at the autumn fan beside her.

Qiu Shan understood immediately, picked up the wooden sword that was discarded by Xue Wushang, and asked Xue Wushang with a smile: "Second Master, you don't want this wooden sword anymore? The county horse sold it for you."

Xue Wushang was even more angry when he heard it, turned around and ran away, and said loudly: "No, Sister Baihua said, it was given to me by my father because the sick man didn't want it."

Shui Linglong saw that Xue Wushang turned around and ran away, and hurriedly said to Wuhu, Xue Wushang's close servants: "Quick! Follow the second master! Don't let the second master do anything!"

The five tigers responded immediately and rushed to Xue Wushang's side.

Seeing the direction Xue Wushang was running to, Shui Linglong frowned in thought, then looked at the wooden sword in Qiu Shan's hand and asked: "Is this wooden sword prepared by the county horse for Wuyou?"

Qiu Shan shook his head, thought for a while and said: "Probably not, I heard that the county horse seems to have specially prepared two wooden swords, one for the uncle and the other for the second master."

"What do you think of Baihua? Why did she say these things to Second Master?" Shui Linglong asked again.

Qiu Shan said respectfully: "Princess, don't worry, this matter will be handled properly by this servant."

Shui Linglong was silent, looking at the peonies in the yard, and asked after a long time: "Qiu Shan, do you think Jun Ma really has me in his heart?"

Qiu Fan didn't even think about it, and replied directly: "It's natural, Junma naturally has you as the princess in his heart, otherwise why would Junma ask the prince to marry you?"

"Really? He has me in his heart?" Shui Linglong murmured a little uncertainly for some reason.

Seeing Shui Linglong like this, Qiu Fan hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, don't think about it anymore, don't you know Jun Ma's intentions? Back then you accompanied Jun Ma to Jinling, and this trip lasted three years. How could there be no you in my heart?"

Shui Linglong smiled lightly and said, "Yes! How could I not understand his thoughts? Otherwise, I wouldn't agree to marry him?"

Qiu Shan nodded, and echoed, "Exactly, Junma has always been considerate of the princess. When you were pregnant with the second master, Junma was always by the princess' side and took care of the princess."

Shui Linglong was very happy when she heard what Qiu Shan said, but when she thought of Xue Wushang calling Xue Wuyou's sick child just now, she was a little worried, and said to herself: "I just don't know why Shang'er is so worried about his elder brother. Always hated it?"

Qiu Shan thought for a while, and said: "The uncle's health has not been good all the time, the county horse will inevitably love the uncle more, and the second master must feel a little uncomfortable seeing him."

"Indeed, Wuyou's health has never been good. If he hadn't been entrusted to such a family, he would have long ago—" Shui Linglong nodded, and then said: "Don't use the ginseng and ganoderma sent by my father. , keep it for Wuyou."

Qiu Shan responded with a smile, and said: "The princess is so kind to the uncle, just like he is to his own."

Shui Linglong breathed a sigh of relief, and said leisurely: "Of course I love Wuyou, I watched him grow up. He and Wushang are the same to me. Don't say anything about your own life or not."

"Yes! Yes! This servant has written it down." Qiu Shan bowed in response, and then turned to say: "Princess, my aunt sent some gifts, and said that Master Qi Xing has been selected as a scholar, and asked when we will return. Beijing."

Shui Linglong smiled and said: "Qi Xing is really amazing, he became a scholar at the age of ten. If Wuyou's body wasn't so weak, he might be a scholar now."

Qiu Shan also nodded and said: "Of course, Jun Ma was the number one scholar in Sanyuan and Jidi, and he was also the number one talented scholar in Jinling. If you think about it, you will know how talented the uncle and the second master are. Wait a few years, and the second master Master will definitely be a scholar, maybe the Xue family will produce a champion again."

Listening to Qiu Shan's words, Shui Linglong smiled and said: "I hope so, Shang'er still likes to play."

"Princess, don't worry too much about the imperial examination. With the prince here, you don't have to worry about the future of the second master. The second master is the grandson of the prince's direct relative." Qiu Shan asked again: "Prince, when are we going back to the capital?"

Shui Linglong shook her head and sighed: "Junma doesn't want to go back to the capital. Although he went to the capital to marry me, he didn't stay in the capital."

Qiu Shan said: "Did the princess miss the prince? Since you came to Jinling, you haven't been back yet? When you gave birth to the second master last time, the prince came here specially from the capital. The prince has not seen the second master until now. The appearance of the Lord. Princess, the Junma is so kind to you, do you want to talk to the Junma and go back to the capital to see the Wangye. The Junma will definitely agree. "

Shui Linglong nodded, with a sad expression on her face, and said, "Yes! It is my disobedience to stay in the capital alone. Let's talk to the county horse tonight!"

Qiu Shan immediately smiled and said: "Don't worry, the princess, the county horse will definitely agree. In the past, you were the princess and you didn't want to force the county horse to return to the capital, so you didn't mention this matter. I believe that as long as the princess mentions it, the county horse will definitely agree." would nod in agreement."

Shui Linglong frowned, and asked Qiu Shan, "You want to go back to the capital, right?"

"Hehe, you still know the princess." Qiu Shan smiled without denying it.

Shui Linglong didn't blame Qiu Shan, but only asked: "Did Junma really take uncle to Baima Lake?"

Qiu Shan shook his head, and said: "I don't know, should I ask this servant?"

Shui Linglong waved her hand, and said softly: "If you think about it carefully, you will know that this is true. The county horse is indeed better for Wuyou than for Shang'er."

"Princess, why did you say that again? Didn't you just say that the county horse loves you more because the uncle is in poor health? You must know that the county horse is also very good to the second master. Didn't Doctor Zhou say that, Uncle's life hangs in the balance, why are you jealous of uncle like Second Ye?" Qiu Shan asked, puzzled why Shui Linglong said that again.

Shui Linglong smiled and said: "There are some things like this, even if you know the reason, you will still care about it. Let alone hurt him."

Qiu Shan also knew that the facts were just as Shui Linglong said, but she still persuaded: "Since the princess understands, don't think about it anymore. The second master will also understand."

But Shui Linglong walked up to the peony flower, folded off a bright red peony lightly, and said: "I'm afraid it will be difficult, but I don't know what the county horse thinks."

......

"Yun Xiao, did you take Wuyou to Baima Lake today?" Shui Linglong asked while helping Xue Qiu undress.

Xue Qiu looked at Shui Linglong and nodded, wondering why Shui Linglong suddenly asked this question, and asked in confusion, "What's wrong? What's the matter?"

"Nothing?" Shui Linglong put Xue Qiu's clothes on the hanger, and asked again: "How is Wuyou's illness? Are you okay?"

Xue Qiu sighed, walked to the side of the bed and sat down, looked at the lights on the desk, and said softly: "It's still the same, I can only hope that the condition won't get worse."

Shui Linglong looked at herself in the bronze mirror, removed her make-up by herself, and said: "The Mei family sent some gifts, saying that Qi Xing has already won the prize of a scholar, and now he has achieved fame. He also asked when we will return to the capital. "

Xue Qiu immediately laughed when he heard the news, and said: "Qi Xing is only ten years old and already a scholar, even more powerful than he was back then. My sister must be very happy."

Shui Linglong asked, "Yun Xiao, when are we going back to the capital?"

Xue Qiu was taken aback, and asked, "Why did you bring this up suddenly? Is there something wrong in the capital?"

Shui Linglong shook her head and sighed: "There's nothing wrong with the capital, but we haven't returned to the capital to visit our father. I think we should take Wushang and the others to the capital."

Xue Qiu didn't speak, but looked at Shui Linglong's back with dim eyes.

"What's the matter? Yun Xiao, why don't you speak?" Shui Linglong looked back at Xue Qiu, frowned and asked, "Don't you agree that we go back to the capital?"

Xue Qiu shook his head, his voice was very calm, "If you want to go to the capital, then go! It's just that we won't stay in the capital forever, we still have to go back to Jinling."

When Shui Linglong heard that Xue Qiu agreed with her, she immediately nodded and smiled and said, "Okay! You said it, then we--set off for the capital in a few days!"

"You can figure it out! Just tell Qi Bo." Xue Qiu turned around and went to bed, lifted the quilt and lay down.

Shui Linglong was in a good mood immediately, and kept saying, "Father may not have known Wushang for a long time? He will be very happy to go to Wushang. He has been looking forward to going to the capital to see Father. And We need to prepare more Jinling earth ceremonies, and the Mei family will also send some. By the way, do you want to prepare some from the Jia family of Wuyou’s great-grandmother?"

"You make up your own mind!" Xue Qiu turned his back to Shui Linglong and said flatly.

Shui Linglong thought for a while, then got on the bed, and said: "It's better to prepare, these are all necessary." Shui Linglong saw that Xue Qiu had fallen asleep, so she didn't make a sound, but she was still very happy in her heart, and closed her eyes with a smile. Go to sleep with your eyes closed.

Xue Qiu opened his eyes and looked at Shui Linglong, his eyes were half covered by his long hair, making it hard to see clearly.
