Xing Yusheng picked up Lin Xueqing and went to the Duke of Qin's mansion early that morning. When he entered the door, he met Mr. Qin who was about to go out.
He made an appointment with Lin Shuzhi to go fishing at a beautiful lake in the city.
"Girl Qing, has your second brother received a letter?" Mr. Qin asked cheerfully.
Lin Xueqing shook her head, "No letters have come in these days. But my eldest brother said that the emperor has given permission for my second brother to return to Beijing to get married."
"Don't miss him. I'll have to beat him with a cane a few times, which will make Yujin think about him every day." After saying this with a smile, Mr. Qin went out with steady steps, without any help from the servant.
When Xing Yusheng and Lin Xueqing saw Qin Yujin, she was sitting in a pavilion in the garden in a daze, holding a flower in her hand, and the petals fell all over the ground.
Lin Xueqing brought the flower over and said, "It didn't offend you."
Qin Yujin came back to her senses and saw Xing Yusheng and Lin Xueqing, but they looked a little disappointed, "You are here."
Xing Yusheng chuckled, "Qing'er, let me just say, it's not us that my cousin wants to see."
Lin Xueqing glared at Xing Yusheng, "You should also go to Xuanbei City."
Xing Yusheng was stunned, "Why should I go?"
"You go try it and experience how my second brother and Yujin feel when they are separated, so you won't make sarcastic remarks." Lin Xueqing said, looking at Qin Yujin's expression.
"That's right." Qin Yujin nodded, "I think Xue Qing is right."
Xing Yusheng coughed slightly and stood up, "Okay then, I will set off to Xuanbei City today to see if my father and Su Liang need any help. I'm leaving, Qing'er, please don't keep me.
"
After saying that, Xing Yusheng left the pavilion and walked out, walking slower and slower.
Qin Yujin and Lin Xueqing looked at his back and covered their mouths and snickered.
"How many more steps do you think my cousin will take before he turns back?" Qin Yujin asked in a low voice.
Lin Xueqing's face was arrogant, "Whatever, just leave if you want."
The one who was defeated was of course Xing Yusheng. Hearing Lin Xueqing's words, he turned around helplessly, "Qing'er, are you really willing to give up?"
"Your father can go, Sister Su can go, my second brother can go, why can't you go?" Lin Xueqing asked back.
Xing Yusheng said, "It makes sense, but I'm not a general. If I go, I'll cause trouble, so I really can't go." Then he turned around and came back.
After sitting down opposite Lin Xueqing, Xing Yusheng said with a smile, "But after we get married, one day Qing'er wants to go north to play, let's go together."
Qin Yujin stood up quietly and said, "I won't disturb you anymore."
Lin Xueqing quickly grabbed her, "Let's go to Sister Su's house together!"
Qin Yujin frowned, "But she's not at home."
"Senior Brother Ning is here. I heard from my eldest brother that he has a rest today and must be at home now. Sister Su has been away for so long and we haven't even visited Senior Brother Ning. He must be very lonely." Lin Xueqing said.
"Master Ning..." Qin Yujin hesitated, "I don't think he likes the excitement. If Sister Liang is not here, he probably won't welcome us there, right?"
"No, Senior Brother Ning is very nice. Let's go." Lin Xueqing insisted and must take Qin Yujin out to play.
Qin Yujin couldn't resist her, so she agreed. When she went to Su Liang's house, she didn't need to say hello in advance.
"I stopped by to take a look at our house. I took Qi Yan to plant a few trees a few days ago. I don't know what happened." Xing Yusheng said with a smile.
Lin Xueqing stepped on him silently, warning him with her eyes: Don't show affection in front of Qin Yujin!
Xing Yusheng coughed slightly, his little wife is getting better and better, she is so cute.
Qi Yan drove the car and the three of them arrived at Su Mansion. Unsurprisingly, the door was closed.
But it doesn't matter, Qi Yan can just climb over the wall and open the door.
This is how they came in when they came to the door before.
There are many trees in the mansion. They are very lush and green in this season.
Several people arrived at Su Liang's courtyard. The courtyard door was open, and the door of Ningjing's room was also open. There was an unclosed book on the stone table in the courtyard.
"Senior Brother Ning?" Lin Xueqing called out, but no one answered.
"He won't go out secretly by himself, right?" Xing Yusheng said.
"Senior Brother Ning should have taken his books into his room if he went out, just in case he got wet in the rain." Lin Xueqing said.
Xing Yusheng nodded immediately, "That makes sense. Maybe fishing in the garden."
So the three of them went to the garden together.
I saw a man swimming in the lake from a distance.
Xing Yusheng sighed, "I really didn't expect that Mr. Ning, who usually acts like an immortal, would be so...lively when he is alone at home."
Look, that strong figure and flexible arm swings, like a free fish, made Xing Yusheng want to jump in and swim a few laps.
Lin Xueqing looked strange, "Senior brother Ning fell into the water and almost drowned when he was a child. Since then, he has been very afraid of water."
Qin Yujin chuckled, "It seems that he is no longer afraid."
Lin Xueqing shouted towards the lake, "Senior Brother Ning! We are here to see you!"
The man in the lake suddenly raised his head, plunged down again, and disappeared.
The three of them approached, but still no one came out.
Lin Xueqing looked panicked, "Senior Brother Ning, are you okay?" She said, pushing Xing Yusheng, "Quick, go down and have a look! Did I scare Senior Brother Ning?"
Without saying a word, Xing Yusheng took off her shoes and coat, and when she was about to jump in, the sound of water on the other side sounded, and a wet man climbed onto the shore with his back to them.
"Senior Brother Ning, are you okay? You scared me to death!" Lin Xueqing patted her chest.
Qin Yujin also breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly pulled Lin Xueqing around and said, "Don't look at anyone who is not polite."
"Ningjing, what are you doing? Are you teasing us?" Xing Yusheng picked up the clothes on the ground and was speechless.
"Who asked you to come here uninvited? I'm going to change clothes." Qi Jun, who was pretending to be calm, tried his best to make his voice sound colder, and left quickly after saying that, without letting Xing Yusheng and the others see him from the beginning to the end.
s face.
Xing Yusheng and the others didn't suspect anything. They thought Ningjing didn't welcome them, and even complained a little that he wasn't enough of a friend.
The three of them were about to sit in the pavilion for a while, waiting for Ning Jing to pack up before going over, when they heard Qi Yan's exclamation from not far away, "Ajun?"
"Is he stupid? Ajun and Su Liang went to Xuanbei City." Xing Yusheng blurted out, and at the same time subconsciously looked at the back of "Ningjing", his eyes suddenly narrowed, and he rushed out of the pavilion.
Qin Yujin and Lin Xueqing looked at each other, neither knowing what happened.
Qi Jun didn't expect to be blocked by Qi Yan. As a twin brother, Qi Yan could recognize Qi Jun even if he didn't see his face.
At this time, Xing Yusheng finally realized that something was wrong.
Qi Jun, who was blocked from both sides, had no choice but to give up his pretense and confess and be lenient. He looked at Qi Yan and called out weakly, "Brother." Then he turned around and called out to Xing Yusheng, "Master."
Xing Yusheng looked at Qi Jun who had just come out of the water. There were still traces of disguise on his face, but because he had been soaked in the water for too long, some of the disguise medicine had lost its effectiveness, so he could clearly tell that it was Qi Jun.
This was also the reason why he hid immediately when he heard Lin Xueqing's voice, and why he deliberately turned his back to them when he couldn't hide anymore.
Xing Yusheng laughed in anger, "What did you call me? I don't dare to take it seriously. How capable you are! I asked you to go to Xuanbei City with Su Liang, but you didn't leave the capital at all, but you didn't even say hello! You still have this look in your eyes
Is there us?"
Qi Jun quickly explained, "Master Ning asked his subordinates to pretend to be him and stay in the capital because he wanted to follow Miss Su to Xuanbei City. His subordinates all acted according to Miss Su's instructions."
Xing Yusheng hummed softly, "Did Su Liang tell you personally so that you could hide it from me?"
Qi Jun nodded immediately, "That's right!"
Xing Yusheng was so drunk, "Those two! I kindly arranged a helper for Su Liang. She and Ning Jing are really good at playing! Since they are so inseparable, they can't be separated for a day. When they come back, if they don't get married properly,
In the bridal chamber, this matter will never end!"
Qi Yan kicked Qi Jun from behind, "Don't even tell me, wait until you get back and see how I deal with you!"
Qi Jun wanted to cry but had no tears. He was bored by himself every day. He really had nothing to do. The weather was nice today. He didn't have to go to the household department to do errands. He could just relax and go for a swim in the garden. Who would have thought that Su Liang's friends would suddenly miss him?
I woke up from peace and came to the door.
Qi Jun had imagined many scenarios of meeting Xing Yusheng while pretending to be peaceful, and even practiced what he said, but it turned out that he thought too much.
"Why don't you hurry up and change your clothes and prepare your disguise!" Xing Yusheng also wanted to beat Qi Jun.
Qi Yan stretched out his hand and dragged Qi Jun away.
When Xing Yusheng returned to the pavilion, she saw that Qin Yujin and Lin Xueqing were both confused, because they did not hear the conversation between the three men, but they saw Qi Yan kicking Qi Jun.
"What's going on?" Lin Xueqing asked with a frown.
Xing Yusheng told the truth that Ning Jing was not at home at all and ran away with Su Liang.
Both girls were stunned.
After a long while, Lin Xueqing sighed quietly, "Let me tell you, Senior Brother Ning can't swim."
Qin Yujin couldn't help laughing, "They are so sweet! Who dares to say that they are fake marriage? I have already seen it, Mr. Ning likes Sister Liang!"
Lin Xueqing nodded repeatedly, "Of course! I always refused to admit it before, but this time we caught it, right? When they come back, we must get married as soon as possible! If Senior Brother Ning dares to speak harshly again, I will break up with him!"
Xing Yusheng chuckled, "He shouldn't mind breaking up with you."
Lin Xueqing looked over, and Xing Yusheng immediately changed her mind and said seriously, "Actually, I think the same thing as Qing'er."
Qin Yujin said seriously, "Don't let more people know about this matter, otherwise it will be very troublesome."
It would be better if Ning Jing did not become an official. He is now an official of the imperial court. To find someone to impersonate him would be a serious crime of deceiving the emperor.
However, because they discovered the secret of the Su Mansion, the three of them felt very happy, and Qin Yujin also temporarily put aside her longing for Lin Bojun.
Qi Jun did not go to the restaurant for lunch that day, but enjoyed the delicious food made by Qin Yujin and Lin Xueqing.
The two girls took their role-playing seriously and enjoyed it.
Hearing Lin Xueqing call him "Senior Brother Ning", Qi Jun felt uncomfortable in his heart. The look in his master's eyes was so scary.
Before leaving, Qi Yan asked Qi Jun, "Does dad know about this?"
Xing Yusheng also wanted to ask, does his father know?
Qi Jun shook his head, "I probably don't know. I didn't have a chance to tell dad."
Qi Yan hummed, "How could dad not recognize you?"
Xing Yusheng nodded in agreement.
Qi Jun thought for a while and said, "If Miss Su and Mr. Ning really don't want dad to know, there will be a way."
…
Xing Yusheng and Lin Xueqing sent Qin Yujin home first.
Arriving outside the gate of the Duke of Qin's Mansion, Qin Yujin got off the car and said goodbye to them.
Qi Yan was about to turn around and leave when his expression suddenly brightened, "General Lin!"
Qin Yujin looked slightly startled, turned around, and saw a tall figure striding out of her home. Wasn't it Lin Bojun whom she longed for?
Lin Bojun returned to the capital, but did not go home. He came to the Qin Mansion first, wanting to tell Qin Yujin that he was back and would get married as scheduled.
However, he was told that Qin Yujin had gone out. Lin Bojun was very disappointed. As he was about to leave, he saw Qin Yujin coming back.
Qin Yujin looked at Lin Bojun blankly.
Lin Bojun rushed in front of her, grinned, "I'm back."
Qin Yujin nodded lightly, "Yeah."
"I'm back!" Lin Bojun's eyes were burning.
Qin Yujin nodded again, "I heard it."
"Why don't you look at me?" Lin Bojun asked Qin Yujin when he saw her head lowered.
Qin Yujin raised her head, but her eyes were red, "What's there to see?" After saying that, she pushed Lin Bojun away, held up her skirt and ran into the house.
Lin Xueqing, who was about to leave, heard her second brother's voice and quickly opened the car curtain with a look of surprise, "Second brother!"
But all I saw was the back of Lin Bojun chasing Qin Yujin into the Duke's Mansion...
Xing Yusheng laughed loudly, "Qing'er, your second brother has to coax his cousin, let's go first!"
Lin Xueqing pouted, "Second brother, it's true, he can't even see me before we get married, and I won't pay attention to him! Let's go!" Before she finished speaking, she couldn't help laughing, "That's great! I know Yu Jin is not worried.
I postponed the wedding because I was worried that something might happen to my second brother at the border, so I can’t rest assured until I see someone!”
…
Xuanbei City.
Su Liang hasn't received Duanmu Yi's reply yet, so he can't leave yet.
In the meantime, she went to Ping'an Temple again and told Master Puqing that she had asked a reliable person to bring the things to Chengyun.
That day, Su Liang went to Nanfeng City to perform acupuncture on Chen Yun's father. When he was about to leave, a guest came from the Chen family.
Su Liang met the guest, and both of them were stunned.
Chen Yun was a little surprised, "Do you know each other?"
Su Liang smiled, "Do you know each other?"
Lin Xin, who came from afar, laughed heartily and said, "I know, you guys know each other."
Su Liang didn't expect that Lin Wei and Chen Yun were good friends from the south to the north.
"Actually, I heard that you came to Xuanbei City and made a special trip to seek refuge with you." Lin Wei said with a smile, "I just arrived and wanted to stay at Beibei's house."
Chen Yun holds his forehead.
Su Liang expressed his understanding, "You call him Chen Beibei because he calls you Lin Shanshan? That makes sense."
"Haha! You guessed it right!" Lin Xin looked much better than the last time he left the capital. "You must be curious about how we met, right? Once he and I both asked for help from a famous doctor. Who should go first?
I opened the door and showed some courtesy."
Su Liang understood that Lin Yi sought medical treatment for Duanmu Che, and Chen Yun sought treatment for his father. As for "courtesy", that must be a high-emotional intelligence way of saying that people don't know each other even if they don't know each other.
Chen Yun intuitively felt that the way Lin Wei looked at Su Liang was unusual.
"Will you live here forever? Why don't you accept me as a soldier?" Lin Xian asked Su Liang half-jokingly, "I felt very bored when I got home. After all, Lin was once a famous general. I plan to
Restore the family’s glory!”
"I support you." Su Liang nodded, "Fuck with your brother Chen Beibei, I will leave soon."
Lin Wei was surprised, "Leave? Go back to the capital?"
Su Liang smiled and said, "Well, let's go back and get married. It's far away. You guys can buy your own wine. I won't invite you to the wedding banquet. Say goodbye."
After saying this, Su Liang left.
Lin Yan looked at Su Liang's back and sighed.
Chen Yun bumped into Lin Wei and asked, "Have you fallen in love with her?"
Lin Xin said in a faint tone, "Isn't it possible?"
"I said yes, it's useless. She just told you, no!" Chen Yun dragged Lin Wei back, "Don't think about it, I think she must like that Ning Jing very much. By the way, have you met Ning Jing? He looks good.
Does it look good?"
Lin Ji thought of someone and shook his head firmly, "I'm probably a hundred times prettier than you, but a little worse than me."
The two had just met and started fighting within minutes.
…
Su Liang returned to the General's Mansion in Xuanbeicheng and told Ning Jing that Lin Wei was here.
"Coming for you?" Ning Jing asked.
Su Liang shook his head, "He is good friends with Chen Yun, and he said he plans to join the army in Xuanbei City. It's good. If he is really serious, he should be able to achieve something."
This was just a small incident, and Su Liang quickly forgot about it. Things in the army were no longer so busy, so she began to seize the time to practice martial arts.
Five days later, Xing Ji sent someone to call Su Liang over when he saw Lin Ji again.
As the eldest grandson of General Lin, Xing Ji naturally welcomes Lin Xie to join the army. He has a cheerful and free personality, good martial arts skills, and a shrewd mind. Xing Ji likes this junior and plans to promote him, so he specially handed the emperor a note for this matter.
.
Seeing Su Liang come in, Xing Ji asked Chen Yun and Lin Wei to go back.
"Good news?" Su Liang asked.
Xing Ji nodded, "Your Majesty has granted leave, but it is only for half a month. After you stay in Sujia Village for half a month, you need to return to Beijing."
Su Liang complained softly, "How stingy."
Xing Ji smiled and didn't say anything. He knew that Su Liang had a sense of propriety, so there was no harm in just talking in front of him.
"Do you know Lin Wei?" Xing Ji asked.
Su Liang nodded.
"What do you think of him?" Xing Ji asked again.
Su Liang said, "We don't have many contacts, but he has a good character."
Xing Ji smiled and said, "Since you said so, I have to train him well. When these young people can take charge of their own business, I can go back to Beijing to have my grandson."
Su Liang said goodbye to Xing Ji, and when she went out, she saw Chen Yun and Lin Wei had not left yet, waiting for her not far away.
"What do you want from me?" Su Liang asked.
Chen Yun smiled and asked, "Is General Su leaving?"
Seeing Su Liang nodding, Lin Xie asked Su Liang to go have a drink with her and practice it for her.
"Next time." Su Liang refused, "I want to leave early."
Chen Yun and Lin Wei could only give up.
"I've always paid attention to your brother's affairs, but unfortunately..." Lin Wei sighed.
Chen Yun smiled bitterly, "Thank you for your hard work. Even if there are no clues now, I believe that my little brother must be alive."
…
"Master? Let's go home!" Su Liang called Ning Jing as he entered.
Ning Jing walked out of the study carrying his luggage, and he had even packed Su Liang's luggage.
After Su Liang rode out of the city alone, he met Ningjing in the valley where he had stopped when he came, and then they set off together to Bei'an County.
