Let’s go back and talk about home.

Due to Jiao Shun's special instructions, Xiangling did not go directly to the Yingchun Courtyard, but waited until the girls gathered in the old lady's house as usual before hurriedly searching there.

After entering the courtyard gate, he saw several little maids taking short-handled forks and hanging birdcages and birdstands on the east corridor. Xiangling hurriedly stepped forward and asked Si Qi if he was in the courtyard.

There was a little maid inside who replied: "I just said in the room that I was looking for some chess records and asked Sister Siqi to go home and get them. The sisters are all talking in the east wing now. Sister Xiangling might as well go inside and wait for a while."

.”

Hearing this, Xiangling had no choice but to run to the east chamber first.

I originally planned to chat with Ying'er first, but I didn't expect to take a look inside. Baochai felt unwell, so she didn't come to join the sisters' tea party today.

Since Baochai didn't come, Ying'er naturally wouldn't be there either.

At this time, Xiren took the initiative to greet her with a smile, pulled her over and said, "Ying'er isn't here, sister just sit next to me!"

As he said that, he forcefully pulled her to his side.

Then he whispered: "Yesterday, Second Master Bao was in my courtyard and read an article about work-study by your master. You also know his heartless temper. He turned around and forgot about it."

It’s clean.”

"Who would have thought that the master would actually give an order this morning to write an article based on this and submit it to him? It seems as if he is worried about something - what kind of entertainment will your master have tonight?"

These words were so fast and urgent that they made Xiang Ling feel a little dazed. She innocently widened her watery eyes and answered hesitantly for a long time: "Our master has never told us whether he has any entertainment.

"

"Then when your master comes back, if it is convenient, let someone send a message. Mr. Bao said that he must go there to ask for advice..."

Just as he was talking, he heard Xiuju diagonally across from him say with a smile: "Sister Xiren, what are you whispering about? Everyone is waiting for you to tell the news!"

Because only the Baoyu Room in each hospital ordered newspapers, Xiren must pick up the latest news and share it with the sisters on every official day.

Yesterday, because it was covered up by rumors about welcoming the Spring Festival, no one thought about it for a while.

Now that this rumor has been dispelled, she will inevitably be asked to 'broadcast news' again.

Hearing Xiuju's urging, Xiren smiled and said, "I originally wanted to wait until Siqi came back before continuing, but you don't think about your sister at all. Wait until she comes back to see if I don't expose your shortcomings!"

While everyone was laughing, she hurriedly told Xiang Ling what she had just said. Then, under the urging of her sisters, she vividly recounted yesterday's headlines.

However, the Queen of Qianxiang Kingdom recently sent a letter to Emperor Longyuan, saying that it was hard to repay the kindness of her superior country, and she wished she could come to the capital and become a slave.

It is said that the words in the letter are extremely ambiguous, and there is a metaphor for recommending oneself to the pillow.

Although the newspapers didn't know the details, they all got excited about it.

For a time, the originally unknown Queen Qianxiang surpassed all the oirans in the capital and became the object of countless people's imagination.

Of course, if the text is ambiguous, you have to read Chong Er's essays. Although they dare not directly deal with Queen Qianxiang, they use nearly two pages to describe the affairs between a certain scholar and a certain Qianxiang woman.

The word "fragrance" is highlighted in the article, and more than ten wonderful things are listed from beginning to end. The reading is detailed and meticulous, almost like seeing it in person.

It's a pity that Baoyu didn't subscribe to Chong Er's essays, so what Xiren recounted was almost semi-official publications like Xia Bao and Beijing News.

Although there is also a saying that Queen Qianxiang is "the most beautiful person in the southeast", it is never as exciting as "many fragrances and many wonderful things".

After listening to Xi Ren's retelling, everyone could not help but comment on Queen Qianxiang, and some speculated whether she had ever been married, and whether she also had a wife from the Three Palaces and Sixth Court.

Of course, it is also indispensable to praise the king for his majesty like the sea, which can make foreign kings fall in love with him from thousands of miles away.

While they were discussing, the chess player from outside came in through the curtain, holding a tray of watermelons and laughing and scolding: "I know you little conscienceless people, most of you can't wait until I come back to talk about it - I might as well just enjoy these slices of watermelon to myself.

Bar."

Just as Xiren was about to strike up a conversation, Xiuju hurriedly stepped forward to pick it up, gagging and saying, "Is the watermelon grown in the glass shed ripe? I have to give it a try to see if it's any different from the ordinary ones."

When everyone saw this, they burst into laughter.

Although Siqi didn't know what was going on, he saw Xiuju's posture and pinched her face.

Then he smiled and said: "It's just a taste. Mr. Bao thinks it doesn't taste very good, so he doesn't want to eat a second piece. Otherwise, it won't be our turn - in fact, the glass shed last winter

I planted melon seedlings there. I thought they would grow in spring, but I don’t know who crushed the vines.”

"I've heard about this too."

Entering the picture continued: "It is said that the melon seedlings were tossed repeatedly, but it seems that someone put a tampon on them - because I caught up with Grandma Rong, the mess was settled."

Said a few words.

Over there, Xiangling also stood up and came over to greet her. She handed her a piece of Xiuju, but she hurriedly waved her hand and declined, her big watery eyes only looking at Siqi.

Siqi remembered that she was by Jiao Shun's side now, and his complicated expression disappeared for a moment, and then he greeted him straightforwardly: "Sister Xiangling, do you want to tell me something? How about we take a walk in the courtyard?"

Xiangling nodded obediently, then stepped forward to raise the door curtain.

The two of them left the east chamber one after another. Seeing that the maids on the corridor had already gone back to the house, Xiangling thought of going to the corner to talk.

But as soon as he opened his legs, Si Qi grabbed him and reminded him in a low voice: "The corridor is full of thieves who are good at learning words. Are you going to tell the whole family?"

After saying that, he led her to the pavilion in the southwest corner and sat down, one facing east and the other facing north, to ensure that no one would overhear her words.

Xiangling was able to explain her intention.

"He just said no to anything, but he sent you to pretend to be a ghost!"

After Si Qi heard this, he sneered again and again, but his heart was filled with knots. Although there was no rockery under the pavilion, he still couldn't help but look down, as if he had returned to the cave that day.

After a while, she sighed and said, "Let me think about it before talking."

In fact, this has already been agreed. All I need to do is to persuade you...

"oh."

But Xiangling obviously didn't have such sharp eyesight, so she responded obediently, her small nose and slender eyebrows furrowed in one place, obviously thinking about how to communicate when she went back.

Si Qi laughed angrily at her for a moment, raised his hand and poked a finger on the rouge mark between her eyebrows, and said angrily: "How can you win over someone like this? You don't even know how to persuade her."

Xiangling suddenly realized and said hurriedly: "Then..."

"Stop doing this and that."

Now that he had confessed his feelings, Si Qi was not that pretentious and simply said: "It's not impossible to meet him, but you have to be there."

"ah?!"

Xiang Ling suddenly misunderstood something. While she exclaimed, her mind was suddenly filled with the wonders of the cave, and the next moment was the scene of her flying with Yu Chuan'er recently. Her face as big as a palm seemed to be boiling.

It was red and hot, almost bleeding from the center of my eyebrows.

"No, no, no! This, this..."

She shook her little hands wildly and said: "How come Sister Siqi, also..."

"What's wrong with me?"

Siqi asked in surprise: "What's going on with you girl? You were so confused when you were around Miss Bao before, but it's even more messy when you get to him!"

Although she was a master she had met in passing, how could she have imagined that she could develop so many tricks in just over a month?

Since he couldn't get the answer after asking a few questions, Si Qi simply changed the subject: "Did he make an appointment for a date? Did he say where to meet?"

When the business came up, Xiangling lost a little of her embarrassment and said hesitantly: "Tell me, we will meet you at the same place when our master takes a rest on the 14th of this month."

The old place naturally refers to the rockery and pavilion.

This is also one of the important reasons for Xiangling’s misunderstanding.

"Bah~"

And the word 'old place' also made Si Qi spit loudly, and said with a red head and a swollen face: "I only saw it there once, what's the old place?"
