Get on the wrong sedan chair and marry the right wolf

When Ling Xueji got out of the carriage and was taken all the way into the painting boat by Qu Quan, he realized what kind of place it was, and immediately felt an urge to scold "dog officer" and run away.Qu Quan didn't give her this chance, so he took her hand and walked inside.At this time, someone came up to ask about the box, Qu Quan waved his hand to indicate that he knew, and that person stepped back tactfully.At this time, Ling Xueji realized with bewilderment that this painting boat seemed to be different from the brothels he had heard of. The layout here was gorgeous but not gaudy, and there was a bit of elegance between the silk and bamboo orchestras.The cool wind comes from the river, dancing with the light gauze curtains rolled up, and occasionally there are two or three good words in the sound of pushing cups and changing cups. Even Ling Xueji, who came back for the first time, also felt the wit here.

No wonder it was Qu Quan's favorite place, Ling Xueji completely forgot the long-lost word "dog official" that just popped up in his mind.While thinking wildly, the door of a private room was pushed open, Ling Xueji was much shorter than Qu Quan, and Qu Quan could not see anything inside, so he heard a few male voices laughing loudly.

"It's coming."

"Ah Quan, you are late, you will be punished for drinking later."

"I just want to drink when I come out, and I can't kill you when I go back and brew a tank."

"Ahem, let's forget about the wine, I'll punish you with a poem later!"

Ling Xueji's heart was pounding, her throat seemed to be drained dry, so dry that she could only swallow in vain without relief.Qu Quan had already entered the door, and he laughed and joked with them, "I still drink wine. If I write poetry now, I'm afraid I will be framed by those old things and get out of literary prison."

As the words fell, Ling Xueji suddenly felt a ray of light, the sky that had been blocked by Qu Quan just now leaked through the window lattice of the private room, and the scenery of lakes and mountains was clear, rainy and empty, and then four men with different styles caught her eyes. She had seen all these men before. It's just that at the time of solving the case, the four of them were all dressed in official uniforms, and they were solemn and dignified. Now it's an ordinary gathering, and each of them is wearing casual clothes, which really looks like a celebrity.

Ling Xueji was raised in a boudoir since she was a child. Although her temperament is not as introverted and gentle as other ladies, she still abides by the boudoir precepts and has never communicated with men of the same age with a different surname.This time I saw four of them, even though they were acquaintances, they couldn't help blushing, and Qu Quan didn't respond when he came up to hold her.Han Xiao was careful, seeing that Ling Xueji was a little nervous, she smiled and took the initiative to bring up the topic: "We are not new acquaintances, if you don't mind, can I still call you Miss Xueji?"

Seeing that Ling Xueji did not show any displeasure, but nodded slightly, Shi Zhuang followed the address and said: "The last time we met, I felt rushed, and I haven't asked how to write the word 'Xueji' in the girl's name. ?”

Someone took the initiative to ask a question, and Ling Xueji answered truthfully: "We have ten famous scenic spots in Gusu, Wu County, and one of them is called 'Lingyan Xueji'. Dad liked it very much and gave me this name."

"Miss Xueji is outspoken and quick-witted, she really has the spirituality of 'Xue', and she shines with a smile, which fits the scene of 'Ji'. This name is very clever." Han Xiao praised.

"In the future, I heard from you that Miss Xueji is outstanding in martial arts. When I first met Miss Xueji, I also felt that Miss Xueji had a spirit that ordinary girls don't have. Snow can fly through the courtyard, and can also collapse and destroy the Yumen Pass. In my opinion , Miss Xueji not only has the nature of snow, but also has the potential of snow. She is really a rare and strange woman." Shi Zhuang is usually not good at words, and although his words are full of praise, they still make people feel very sincere.

When Ling Xueji first arrived, she was praised so fiercely by others, and she became more and more embarrassed. Just as she was about to thank her, she heard Shuo Dendrobium sigh exaggeratedly, "Ah Quan, you see that Miss Xueji is so skilled, but you don't know how to do it?" Can't lift your hands and resist, don't you feel ashamed and panic?" The last tone was cut off hastily, Shuo Dendrobium dodged quickly, a chopstick flew past his hair crown, and at the same time, Qu Quan's exasperated voice sounded.

"I'm ashamed of you! Every time after solving a case, I ask Han Xiao to write it for you. Why don't you ask yourself if you are ashamed or not!"

Here is Shuo Dendrobium and Qu Quan who have known each other for the longest time and have the deepest acquaintance. Everyone is also happy to see them laughing at each other. His eyes met Shanghang Shicheng's.

Ling Xueji: "..."

Hang Shicheng: "..."

Qu Quan covered his forehead as soon as he saw it, and was busy taking Xueji to meet his friends, why did he forget this, one of them broke into a dormitory, and the other used a sword to cut a hole in the other, this was an extremely unpleasant first time See you!No wonder the man who has always been the most eloquent hadn't said a word just now.

Shi Zhuang and Hang Shicheng also saw something was wrong, but they didn't know what happened, so they didn't dare to ask.Just when the atmosphere was about to fall into a crisis of silence again, Hang Shicheng suddenly got up and saluted Ling Xueji.

"I have offended you so much in the past, please forgive me, girl."

Ling Xueji was so frightened that he also stood up and waved his hands again and again, "It's okay, it's okay, Qu Quan explained to me later, it turns out that you are used to this kind of thing, I didn't know about it."

Shi Zhuang's eyes widened when he heard this, "This kind of thing? What is it?"

Qu Quan grasped the tail of the topic that was about to stray, "It's okay, it's okay, because I didn't have too many scruples in the past, if they have something urgent, they can come to my dormitory to discuss it. That day Shicheng was impatient, and I had nothing to worry about. Forget about the wife's affairs."

Shi Zhuang slapped his palm on the table with a "bang", pointed at Hang Shicheng and scolded him, "You've been kicked in the head by a donkey! Whether it's Master Qu or Miss Xueji, no matter how anxious you are, don't run into the girl's house!"

In fact, given the closeness between Qu Quan and Hang Shicheng, they don't care too much about the so-called famous festivals, and their hearts are as clear as the bright moon, and those who are clear about themselves, regardless of Hang Shicheng, even if Shuo Dendrobium enters Qu Quan's dormitory for secret talks, Han Xiao will not have a word to bother .This is based on the sincere friendship between several people that lasted for several years. If a man and a woman meet someone who has the same concerns and the same heart, it may not be impossible to have affection other than love.

"No, no, no, no." Ling Xueji looked at Hang Shicheng who was standing silently with his head bowed after being scolded by Shi Zhuang, with an aggrieved expression on his face, wanting to explain but not daring, like a student who was punished by his master to stand in the hall, and hurriedly defended him The two of them smoothed things over, "Qu Quan said Mr. Hang was very polite before. It was a special situation that day. Knowing Mr. Shi, you were wronged and imprisoned. Everyone is very anxious. Mr. Hang is also concerned, so chaos will arise!"

Hearing what she said, Shi Zhuang remembered what was going on at that time, felt a little sorry for it, looked at Hang Shicheng and lowered his head for a while, stood up abruptly and walked out of the private room, and turned his head and said, "Hang Shicheng, you and I come out!"

After the two went out, the remaining four people who looked at each other could see helplessness in each other's eyes - except for Ling Xueji who looked confused.

"Mr. Shi and Mr. Hang..."

"Oh, you can just call them by their names. I'm not used to you being so polite." Qu Quan said while putting a five-petal heart cake on her plate.

Ling Xueji picked up the pastry and put it in the palm of her hand, "What's the relationship between them? Why do they seem to be in a good relationship and not so good."

Qu Quan explained with a smile, "They are classmates, but Shi Zhuang has long forgotten that there was a man named Hang Shicheng. He was obsessed with making medicine since he was a child. Through self-study and self-study. Although his family is poor, he also knows that it is a pity that Zhong Yongzhi’s talent is buried, so he is not allowed to continue studying and instead goes to the pharmacy to learn things. He is talented and hardworking, and he has the wisdom of sin. He recruited him if he knew someone, and he has been doing it until now. For Shi Zhuang, he can live alone for a lifetime as long as he is given medicinal materials and a few ancient prescriptions, but Hang Shicheng has cared about him for many years." After finishing speaking, she read Looking at the direction of the tightly closed door, he said with relief: "This has to happen, so that Hang Shicheng has a chance to express his heart."

"This matter depends on Shi Zhuang's own opinion." Shuo Shihu looked at Qu Quan as if he had come here, "You are still worried about them, you should worry about yourself first."

Qu Quan knew that what he was talking about was that he was not favored by the emperor, so he casually fetched a wine cup and filled it up for himself, he should promise to punish himself with a cup, and then said indifferently: "Holy grace is the most impermanent, if there is, there will be." No, there is nothing to worry about in the future.”

"Oh, if you were the old you, you wouldn't be able to say that." Shuo Dendrobium reached out to fetch the jug and was about to fill it up, but was snatched away by Han Xiao who was beside him, looking helplessly at the empty hand Shrugged. "And Ah Mao, you actually arranged him with me, what do you think?"

"Amao is at Brother Dendrobium?" Ling Xueji looked up in surprise, then looked at Qu Quan in a blink of an eye, very grateful, "Qu Quan, did you arrange it?"

"Yeah." Shuo Dendrobium felt quite headache, "I don't know what you think, A Quan, you clearly know that he wants to be with you, and now he stays with me, making troubles for me all day, and the purpose is not to Let me take him to you."

"Pfft." Qu Quan laughed when he heard this, "Is Amao making trouble for you?"

"Okay, okay, don't mention this, I'm going to have a big head, choose an auspicious day, ah, no need to choose a day, it's better to hit the sun and wait until you go back, you go with me to the right street to get the man Then go back to the mansion." Shuo Shihu waved his hand and didn't give Qu Quan a chance to refuse, so he decided to settle the matter. "He doesn't want to be an official, but he is thoughtful and empathetic. It's good to be a guest with you."

Just as they were talking about Hang Shicheng and Shi Zhuang also coming back, both of their faces were a little red, Ling Xueji blinked and looked between them, and when everyone was seated, a woman dressed in Qingluo held the new Hot tea and pastries were delivered to the private room, and it happened that everyone was getting acquainted with each other, so they started chatting with each other.During the banquet, there was also a wine order, and under Shuanglu, it was fun to punish poems and wine.Ling Xueji was taught to play two rounds, and Shuanglu felt that he was not very good at these, so he simply gave up his position to Qu Quan, and watched with a smile.

It's deep in summer in Jinling, and the young master's red makeup is in full bloom, just like the sunshine outside the window after a shower.Ling Xueji suddenly felt that he had lived for 18 years, and only during the time he came to Jinling did he feel the beauty of the years.In the past, in the prefect's mansion, although she was accompanied by her elder sister and had a garden of wild beasts for pleasure, she was still raised in her daughter's home in the deep boudoir.

Thinking about it, I suddenly felt a little sad again. Among the few people talking and laughing at the dinner, except for Qu Quan, which of them had already lived the life they wanted?Shuo Dendrobium has no intention of fame and fortune, and devotes herself to doing things for the common people. Han Xiao stays with her husband, and the two have similar interests and complementary temperaments.Hang Shicheng and Shi Zhuang are officials in the court, and their official careers are going smoothly just when they are showing their grand plans, and they are considered to be going well.Only Qu Quan...

Ling Xueji couldn't help thinking of what he had heard before, about Qu Quan's official career, the Jinling bloody case beheading the son-in-law was Qu Quan's own choice, but he didn't cut off Qu Quan's back path.Although the leisure time is beautiful right now, Qu Quan still has his own things to do. When the rare sense of leisure and relaxation is over, how long will Qu Quan be able to endure the ensuing pressure and torment?Her previous wishful thinking decision was finally shaken, and she didn't have the courage to ask Qu Quan, and she was a little scared for no reason.

She knew what she was looking forward to and what she was afraid of. She could cut down the assassin who threatened her and Qu Quan's life without hesitation, but she couldn't make decisive decisions about her emotions.

The scenery is as beautiful as when we first came here, even the clear sky and the bright scenery in the distance are more worth admiring.But Ling Xueji lost the interest he had when he first came. Han Xiao, who was sitting across from Shuo Dendrobium and Qu Quan, saw that Ling Xueji's expression was different, so he found an excuse and asked Ling Xueji to buy some food.

"I'll accompany you." Seeing that Ling Xueji was going out with Han Xiao, Qu Quan immediately stood up.

Han Xiao looked back at her, "Can't play chess anymore?"

"It's okay, I will lose this game." Qu Quan decisively twisted a black stone out of the chessboard and was about to throw it on the chessboard, but Han Xiao grabbed his arm.Qu Quan looked suspiciously, but saw Han Xiao pursed his thin lips, implying something, "The one hundred and ninth move, you managed to attract the sunspot on the left, forcing Dendrobium to shrink the ground of the upper white piece. This move Don't you feel sorry for admitting defeat?"

Qu Quan thought he was going to say something more important than Mount Tai, but when he heard this, he simply pushed away his hand that was clamping his arm.

A white piece flutters like a white crane's wings, draws an elegant arc in the air and stretches into the water, splashing a piece of chaotic beads and rolling jade, disturbing a pool of lotus sugar.

After Touzi conceded defeat, Master Qu stood up excitedly and was about to take his wife to buy pastries, but Han Xiao pushed him back, "Sit for me." Han Xiao glanced at her coldly, and said, "Officials The communication between family members, why are you joining in the fun."

Qu Quan: "?????"
