When Li Qiushuang followed the servant to Xu Huaian's courtyard, she couldn't help frowning.

There are no people in the cold courtyard, and the soup is still boiling on the clay stove in the corner of the courtyard, which fills the whole courtyard with an unpleasant smell of medicine.

Her eyes were sharp, and she clearly noticed that the boy was frowning, showing impatience.

Li Qiushuang's face was a little displeased, but the servant didn't notice it and said, "Your Highness is here."

"You back down." Li Qiushuang's voice was cold, making people shiver involuntarily.

The boy didn't dare to talk too much, he quickly retreated.

Li Qiushuang walked forward with Jiang Xiuqing and knocked on the door of the main house.

"Here we come." Heart opened the door, and seeing the woman in white outside the door, a flash of surprise flashed in her eyes.

"You... who are you?" Hongtao blinked, she had never seen such a beautiful and elegant woman, and she didn't know what to say for a while.

"Sister Tao'er, who is it?" Xu Huai'an's weak voice came from inside.

Li Qiushuang looked at the people in front of her and said, "I am a friend of Second Young Master Xu, come to visit me."

"Oh, please come in quickly, my second son is seriously ill and can't come out to see each other." Hong Tao said.

"It's okay." Li Qiushuang waved his hand and went into the back room, and saw the man leaning on the bed, his expression was tired, his complexion was even worse than before, and his figure was thin. The days are numbered.

Xu Huai'an didn't expect that it was Li Qiushuang who came, he struggled to get up.

"Lie down, you don't feel well, so don't stick to etiquette." Li Qiushuang pressed Xu Huai'an's shoulder and said softly.

"Yes..." Xu Huai'an froze, and quickly responded, then looked at Hong Tao as if in reproach, and said, "Sister Tao'er, go prepare a pot of hot tea."

"Yes." Heart, who was inexplicably offended, looked puzzled, but obediently went down to make tea.

"Why is Your Highness here?" Xu Huai'an couldn't help asking after Hearts were sent away.

"I heard that you were implicated because of me, so I came here to take a look." Li Qiushuang said bluntly.

Xu Huai'an's heart warmed up, and a warm smile appeared on his lips: "Thank you for your concern, Your Highness, Caomin's health is no longer serious."

"It's really all right?" Li Qiushuang couldn't help frowning when she saw his pale face.

"Naturally." Xu Huai'an nodded.

Li Qiushuang was still worried, and raised her hand to grab Xu Huai'an's wrist to feel his pulse, but just as he grasped it, Xu Huai'an retracted his wrist in fright.

Li Qiushuang met Xu Huai'an's panic-stricken eyes, and only listened to people faltering: "Your Highness... male... male and female..."

Li Qiushuang was stunned for a moment, she seemed to realize something was wrong, her face flushed faintly, she coughed lightly and said, "It's me who is being rude."

"No...it's okay..." Xu Huai'an was a little embarrassed.

Li Qiushuang also noticed something, and then looked at Jiang Xiuqing who was behind her and said, "Xiuqing, put your things down, Second Young Master Xu has a good rest, I'm leaving first."

After all, no more words, got up and walked out the door.

Before Jiang Xiuqing could react, she saw Li Qiushuang leave, glanced at Xu Huaian and quickly put the box on the table and chased him out.

Seeing the two leave, Xu Huai'an took a deep breath, his heart was beating like it was about to explode, and he was almost about to let others discover his true identity.

After Li Qiushuang left Xu Huai'an's room, she also took a deep breath, thinking that she was a little annoyed at her bold behavior just now, she has always been strict with herself, and would never do something disgraceful, but just now she was pure It was a subconscious behavior, Xu Huaian's resistance seemed like he had molested him.

Li Qiushuang frowned, then looked back at Xu Huai'an's room.

"Young Palace Master?" Seeing her like this, Jiang Xiuqing couldn't help calling out.

Li Qiushuang regained her composure and closed her eyes, said, "Let's go, go back home."

Li Qiushuang didn't want to say, and Jiang Xiuqing didn't want to ask too much, so she just nodded and said, "Yes."

Li Qiushuang had already fallen into the mansion when she got married, although she seldom returned to Beijing after Zhao Gan left, but most of the time after returning to Beijing she still lived in the mansion.

Everyone in the world knows that Li Qiushuang values ​​love and righteousness, but they don't know that Li Qiushuang just wants to be quiet.

As soon as she returned home, Li Qiushuang saw a familiar figure.

"Third Sister!" Seeing Li Qiushuang's return, Li Chengyu hastily greeted her.

"Qilang? Why are you here?" Li Qiushuang asked with a slight frown.

"Come to thank the third sister for pleading for me in front of the father, so that I won't be grounded." Li Chengyu said with a smile.

"It's Grandma Huang who begged for you." Li Qiushuang sat in the first seat, but took a sip of the tea served by the servant.

Li Chengyu laughed doglegly: "That's also because of you, third sister, otherwise it would definitely not work."

"Okay, don't be poor." Li Qiushuang put down the teacup and gave her a bad look.

Li Chengyu smiled and didn't mention it again, but said again: "Hey, where did you go just now, third sister? But you told me to wait."

Li Qiushuang paused, then said, "I went to see your Second Young Master Xu."

"Huai'an?!" Li Chengyu was slightly startled, then turned his eyes and said with a mean smile: "Third sister, did you go to see brother Huai'an?"

Li Qiushuang glanced at him, knowing that he didn't think of anything good, so she said softly: "Your brother Huai'an was punished by the Xiangguo because of you and me. He was burned for a day, and he retired today. You and I, I will personally make amends."

Li Chengyu stuck out his tongue, but said: "Then Xu Xiangguo is too much, Huai'an's health is not good, and he is punished so severely, is it possible to deliberately want Huai'an's life?!"

Li Qiushuang frowned and said: "Men in Beijing can participate in the imperial examination when they are sixteen, have you, Huai'an brother, participated before?"

Li Chengyu shook his head: "Hui'an is in poor health and has been bedridden all year round. Xiangguo seldom lets him go out, so Huai'an doesn't take part in the imperial examinations every year. Although Huai'an is weak, he is full of talent. Such a talent, really Pity."

Li Qiushuang listened, tapped the table with the tip of her index finger: "That's weird."

"Sister San, what's the matter?" Li Chengyu asked curiously.

Li Qiushuang shook her head slightly: "It's nothing, let's not interfere in other people's family affairs, so as not to be self-defeating."

"Oh." Hearing what Li Qiushuang said, Li Chengyu gave up and stopped mentioning this matter.

"Okay, if you have nothing to do, you can go home first." Li Qiushuang issued the order to evict the guest.

"Hey! Third sister, don't you want me to have lunch?!" Li Chengyu was shocked.

Li Qiushuang glanced at him: "The dishes cooked by the cook in my house are not as good as yours in Prince Jin's house. Show off your guests."

Li Qiushuang picked up the tea cup and sipped the tea. Jiang Xiuqing saw it, and cupped her hands at Li Chengyu and said, "Prince Jin, please."

Li Chengyu had no choice but to curl his lips: "The third sister, I'm leaving."

Seeing no answer, he left angrily.

After Li Chengyu left, Li Qiushuang put down the teacup and rubbed the center of her brows, Jiang Xiuqing quickly asked: "Young Palace Master, are you feeling unwell?"

Li Qiushuang shook her head and said, "Chengyu's headache is a headache."

"It's normal for Prince Jin to kiss you since he was a child." Jiang Xiuqing smiled.

Li Qiushuang nodded, and then said: "Is there any news from Dali Temple?"

Jiang Xiuqing shook her head: "The assassin has nothing to prove his identity."

Li Qiushuang responded, "I guessed it."

"What do you plan to do, Young Palace Master?" Jiang Xiuqing asked.

"They should be here for that. Since they dare to come, I will let them know the consequences." Li Qiushuang said coldly.

"Yes." Jiang Xiuqing replied, and then said: "By the way, Master has sent a letter."

"Oh? What did Master say?" Li Qiushuang asked.

"He said he asked you to stay in the palace for a few more days, and the sage of the province will ask him for someone every day." Jiang Xiuqing covered her lips and smiled.

Li Qiushuang hooked the corners of her lips helplessly: "I'm afraid he wants to go out to play by himself. If you don't want me to follow."

Jiang Xiuqing said with a smile: "Master respects the old urchin's heart, not to mention his old man's martial arts has reached the pinnacle, you don't have to worry about it, Young Palace Master."

Li Qiushuang shook his head and said: "I'm not worried, but this time it involves that, if the master is not here, I'm afraid that Wulin Zhengdao and Ling Jue Qunlong will have no leader."

"Master has his own arrangements, so the Young Palace Master doesn't have to worry so much," Jiang Xiuqing said.

"Well, I hope so." Li Qiushuang responded.

Xu Huai'an was bedridden for a few days to recover his body, since Li Qiushuang came that day, Xu Huai'an has never seen outsiders, drinking porridge and studying every day, he is quiet.

The second aunt, Shen Shi, also often came to see her, she felt guilty towards Xu Huai'an, but Xu Huai'an kept things in her belly, never told her, mother and son had never been close.

Today Shen came to see Xu Huai'an again and brought a basket of exquisite pastries.

"Mother." Xu Huai'an put down the book, and helped Shen to sit down.

Shen's original name was Shen Mengyun, from Yangzhou, with a graceful appearance, with the unique Xiaojiabiyu temperament of Jiangnan women, with gentle eyebrows, five points similar to Xu Huaian's face.

"I heard from Heart that you feel much better today?" Shen Mengyun asked softly.

Xu Huai'an replied obediently: "It's a little better than a few days ago, it's not a problem anymore."

Shen Mengyun nodded, and then said with a worried expression: "An'er, listen to Mother's advice, don't associate with the royal family anymore."

Xu Huai'an's expression froze, and then he said: "Mother, you don't have to worry, I will protect my identity and never let King Jin notice."

Shen Mengyun shook her head and said: "Silly boy, mother is not worried about this...just..."

At this point, Shen Mengyun paused for a while, but stopped talking.

"Just what?" Xu Huai'an asked.

Shen Mengyun looked at Xu Huai'an, his eyes moved, and then he let out a long sigh: "Anyway, it's best for you to have as little contact with them as possible. Your father doesn't like you messing up the Xu family's rules by forming a clique with others."

Xu Huai'an listened, his heart sank, but his face remained calm, he opened his mouth, and his voice was slightly astringent: "Son, I know, mother, if you have nothing to do, go back first, so that my son doesn't get sick to you."

Shen Mengyun glanced at Xu Huai'an, did not continue, just got up and said: "Then you have a good rest, I brought you your favorite pastry, you have a taste."

After finishing speaking, he stopped talking and turned to leave.

Watching Shen Mengyun leave, Xu Huai'an looked at the food box and curled the corners of his lips, revealing a sarcastic smile.
