It was dusk, a busy time for wine shops. Yao'er was not at home, but Qin Shuang'er was. In recent times, whenever Yao'er wants to go out, Qin Shuang'er will come to Lichen Residence and act as the second nanny for these little orphans. Although these little girls are very sensible and can do their own laundry, cook and consciously study and become female celebrities, it is undoubtedly better to have Shuang'er's management.
But Qin Mubai was very curious, could these little girls endure Shuang'er's cooking skills alive
Qin Shuang'er was a little surprised to see her brother arriving: "Brother, you went out early in the morning. I didn't find you when I went to your house. Where did you go? Why are you here again?"
Qin Mubai smiled and stepped forward to touch her head: "Of course your brother has gone to do business. I came to see Yao'er. Isn't she here? When will she be back?"
"I can't come back until Haishi or around midnight every day. I have the best wine sect in the world to escort me in a carriage."
Qin Mubai nodded, thinking, wouldn't I have to wait until very late
Qin Shuang'er blinked: "Brother, do you have anything to do with her?"
"It's okay. I just have to leave Chang'an for a while, so I came to say goodbye to her."
"Leaving Chang'an? Where are you going?"
"I was ordered to go to Jiangzhou for business. It may take about three months." Qin Mubai smiled mysteriously, "Go with Li Ke."
"Three months, it's such a long time, he's going too!..." Qin Shuang'er's face turned slightly red, and she chuckled, "Can you take me with you?"
"No." Qin Mubai said very resolutely, "This time we are going to provide disaster relief and appease the people, not just to enjoy the scenery. The errand is very heavy and serious. If the state and county officials below see us, we are still carrying our leisure If you wait, don’t you make people gossip?”
"What do you mean by 'idle people waiting'? Brother, you are really talking nonsense!" Qin Shuang'er glared at him a little angrily, "I can obviously help with many things! I can wash clothes, boil water, and cook! Hehe Hee, how about you take me with you as a cook?"
Qin Mubai was speechless for a while, then coughed dryly: "Then I don't dare to take it with you! - Don't be nagging, we are going to fight floods and provide disaster relief, don't mess around! After a while, if things over there slow down, If we can be more relaxed, we will send someone to Chang'an to pick you up for two days, but only if my father agrees."
"Okay! You said so! Don't lie to me!" Qin Shuang'er laughed happily.
Later, Shuang'er took two older girls and got into the kitchen. After making a mess, I finally made a meal. These little orphan girls are used to living a hard life. As long as they have something to eat, they are not picky. Seeing them all eating deliciously, Qin Shuang'er smiled happily. Qin Mubai tasted it and could barely bear it. He seemed to be better than before, probably because he had learned poorly from Yao'er.
I just don’t know how Li Ke, who has always been accustomed to delicacies from the mountains and seas, will feel when he eats the food Qin Shuang’er eats
After the meal, Qin Shuang'er was about to go back. Qin Mubai took him to the alley on horseback, then returned to Li Chenju to continue waiting for Yao'er, and told her not to mention her to her parents, just pretend that she had never seen her before. .
The night is getting deeper, the weather in early autumn has become cooler, and the outdoor farmhouse where Li Chen lives is more comfortable. Frogs are chirping, insects are chirping, fireflies are dotted, and the night wind is caressing the parasol trees to dance. Qin Mubai sat by the flower stream and waited quietly, almost falling asleep.
There was a sound of carriage, and Yao'er finally came back. Qin Mubai was about to step forward when he heard someone say from the Chai Gate: "Miss Yao'er, Xiao Wang is not going in. Just go away."
"Your Highness, please come back. It will be a good trip. From now on, Your Highness should not pick you up or drop off in person like this. It would be inconvenient to send the general out..." Yao'er said in a low voice.
"It doesn't matter. Xiao Wang originally had nothing to do. He admired Miss Yao'er's reputation for being kind and elegant, so he did his best. However, if Miss Yao'er was really disgusted, Xiao Wang didn't dare to persist, lest he offend the beauty. "
"How dare you, Yao'er! His Highness has good intentions, and Yao'er understands it. But... Yao'er feels that he deserves it, and that he has hurt me, a daughter of the people."
Qin Mubai frowned: The voice is quite young and unfamiliar. Who is this? Yao'er calls you Your Highness, which prince or grandson is showing great affection to Yao'er
At this time, he heard the voice and burst into laughter: "Don't misunderstand me, Yao'er. Xiao Wang only has pure admiration and admiration for you, and has no other intentions. Xiao Wang only wants to be with you as an equal and sincerely make you a friend. Don’t be too outspoken, Miss Yao’er.”
"So... Yao'er can only thank His Highness for your kindness. Yao'er went in and said goodbye!"
In the darkness of the night, he couldn't see clearly what was going on by the Chaimen. Qin Mubai thought for a while, stood still, walked lightly back to the flower stream and sat down. Unexpectedly, Yao'er's hearing was extremely sensitive, and he exclaimed in shock: "Who is it?!"
The "His Royal Highness" next to Chaimen obviously hadn't gone far yet, and he immediately shouted: "Here, there is an assassin!"
Suddenly, a man rushed in with a loud roar, scaring Yao'er so much that he screamed. The soldiers of Prince Wu's Mansion who were lying in ambush not far away had been paying attention here for a long time. At this time, they all rushed out, each with a shining sword in their hand.
Such a big movement instantly woke up the group of little girls sleeping in the house, and there was a sudden panic and screams, turning into a mess.
Now that the matter was over, Qin Mubai was no longer in a hurry and walked towards the front house in a grand manner. When the entourage of "His Highness" and the soldiers of Prince Wu's Mansion saw a man walking out in a hurry, they immediately surrounded him and formed a circle, blocking Qin Mubai at the core.
"Is it... General Qin?" The soldiers in Prince Wu's Mansion were dumbfounded.
Those followers of "His Highness" were surprised: "Which General Qin?"
Yao'er suddenly panicked: "Is... is he a mentor?"
"It's me." Qin Mubai said lightly.
"Teacher, forgive me! Yao'er Wushuang, I bumped into my teacher!" Yao'er fell down in front of everyone and kowtowed hurriedly.
"Are you Qin Mubai?" At this time, a high-pitched voice sounded from outside the crowd.
Qin Mubai looked sideways and saw a young man in rich clothes and a noble crown, walking slowly towards him with his hands behind his back. The corners of his mouth were raised slightly, revealing a smile of disdain and hostility. In the blink of an eye, he saw Yao'er kneeling on the ground and kowtowing. He couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, and hurriedly stepped forward to pull Yao'er: "Miss Yao'er, get up quickly. Why are you kneeling down and kowtowing for nothing?"
"No, no, no, if my mentor doesn't give the order, Yao'er won't dare to get up until he dies."
"You!... What kind of mentor? What qualifications does he have to be your mentor? I want you to get up!"
"A civilian girl won't get up even after she dies!"
Qin Mubai stood with his hands behind his hands, his face calm, and he looked on with a cold eye. At this time, he also figured out a rough idea of the origin of the person in front of him.
As expected, the romantic and arrogant "Your Highness" in front of me, who is full of hostility towards me, Qin Mubai, is most likely the King of Han - Li Yuanchang!
After failing to tease Wu Meiniang, he actually got into trouble with Yao'er? What a bitter enemy!
"Those who don't know are not guilty. Yao'er, get up!" Qin Mubai said lightly.
"Thank you, Master!... Your Highness, everyone, this is just a misunderstanding. It's okay. Yao'er, please go back!" Yao'er looked a little shy and scared, and quickly said to the little girls who ran out in panic, "Blue Son, please take the sisters back to your room to rest."
The little girls left obediently, and the soldiers of Prince Wu's Mansion naturally didn't say a word and disappeared into the night without saying a word. Only that "His Royal Highness", accompanied by seven or eight followers, still refused to leave.
"Yao'er, he is the one who should go, right?" His Highness raised his hand and pointed at Qin Mubai, sneering, "You are lurking in the residence of a group of women in the middle of the night. What do you want?"
"No, no, no, my mentor has absolutely no evil intentions!" Before Qin Mubai could say anything, Yao'er hurriedly defended himself, "My mentor came to me, and he must have some advice. Your Highness, the King of Han, please stop asking. I beg you, daughter of the people. move?"
King of Han? Then it is indeed Li Yuanchang!
"No." Li Yuanchang remained unmoved, staring straight at Qin Mubai, and said coldly, "Say quickly. Otherwise, I will arrest you and bring you to the official, and accuse you of entering a private house at night to do something wrong. crime!"
"Ha!" Qin Mubai sneered nonchalantly, "Then can Qin accuse His Highness of intending to rape every day?"
"What do you mean?"
Qin Mubai sneered: "According to His Highness, Qin appeared here to commit a crime. Then you carry the murder weapon through the market every day, and your intention is not obvious?"
"Poof...chih!" The group of followers couldn't help it, and some of them actually laughed and hurriedly reached out to cover their mouths. Yao'er's face turned red with embarrassment. She really didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She turned her face away in embarrassment and didn't dare to speak.
"Idiot, don't laugh!..." Li Yuanchang was immediately furious, "Qin Mubai, as a court official, you are so nasty!"
"Qin is just discussing the matter, and Qin has never claimed to be a high-class person." Qin Mubai smiled calmly, "According to the laws of this dynasty, if His Highness wants to arrest Qin to see an official, he must at least have someone The first complaint is required. Now look at it, neither Yao'er nor the girls in this room said that Qin had evil intentions. You were the one who Yao'er urged to leave... I'm puzzled. Your Highness can't even follow the laws of this dynasty. If you don’t understand the rules, why should you sue me? Why should you continue to stay here?”
Hearing this, Li Yuanchang's expression suddenly changed, and the group of servants were also angry, and they seemed to come forward to beat Qin Mubai.
"Does Your Highness intend to compete with Qin in martial arts?" A smile appeared on Qin Mubai's face, which looked a bit strange under the dim light of the moon, and he said lightly, "Qin really wants it."
A clenched fist and a crackling sound!
Li Yuanchang and others felt a chill in their hearts unconsciously, their hands and feet froze a little, and at the same time they exclaimed in shock: Danger! This guy is a Hundred Cavalry Envoy, and his martial arts skills are amazing!
At this time, Yao'er panicked and hurriedly stood between them: "Teacher, please stop talking!... Your Highness, Hanwang, I beg you, daughter of the people, please don't be entangled in this misunderstanding today, okay? Please leave quickly! Today If you are negligent, you must atone for your sins someday!"
"It has nothing to do with you." After Li Yuanchang spat out a few words, he glared at Qin Mubai with an angry face, gritted his teeth and said, "Qin Mubai, for the sake of Miss Yao'er, I will spare you this time. But you remember , The relationship between me and you has been established. We will meet again in the future."
"Qin is looking forward to it eagerly." Qin Mubai sneered nonchalantly, not even bothering to look at Li Yuanchang.
"Humph!" Li Yuanchang groaned heavily and left with a group of servants.
