Plum blossom garden.
In the corridor, the sun is shining and the fragrance of flowers is floating.
Miss Qin Er, dressed in a plain white dress and a snow-white fox fur coat, was sitting weakly in front of the window, arranging flowers in the vase with her slender jade fingers.
Qiu'er was holding a vase.
Pearl held in her hands fresh flowers she had picked from the flowerbed in the back.
The flowers are colorful and have different colors.
On the windowsills and on the chairs in the corridor, there are vases filled with flowers, colorful and fragrant.
Even in the bleak autumn, the courtyard is full of the colors and scents of flowers.
Luo Qingzhou, dressed in a Confucian robe, pushed open the gate and walked into the courtyard gracefully. He sniffed the fragrance of flowers in the air, looked at the delicate and beautiful girl in the corridor and said, "Second Miss is so elegant."
Miss Qin Er looked at him, and a smile appeared on her beautiful and elegant face.
Zhu Er, who was standing by, immediately asked, "Son-in-law, where did you go last night? You didn't come back at night, and you didn't tell Miss, who waited for you half the night."
Luo Qingzhou glanced at her and said, "Zhu'er, go boil some water. My uncle wants to take a bath."
Zhu'er was stunned, speechless, snorted, and went to the kitchen.
Qiu'er also put down the vase in her hand and went over to help.
When passing by Luo Qingzhou, Luo Qingzhou rubbed her head and said, "Qiu'er is still the best."
Qiu'er laughed and ran away quickly.
Luo Qingzhou walked up the corridor, held Miss Qin's cold little hand, and explained softly, "Something happened last night, so I didn't come back. I'm sorry to have worried you."
Miss Qin smiled gently and asked, "Brother Qingzhou, was he with other girls last night?"
Luo Qingzhou was surprised and asked: "How did you know?"
Miss Qin Er smiled and said, "I guessed. Brother Qingzhou didn't do anything bad last night, right?"
Luo Qingzhou said: "Of course not, I just saved a wounded woman."
Miss Qin asked, "Is she pretty?"
Luo Qingzhou said: "Compared to the Second Miss, she is naturally far behind."
Miss Qin Er smiled slightly and said, "Brother Qingzhou, go to the room. Wei Mo will help Brother Qingzhou take a bath later."
Luo Qingzhou lowered his head and kissed her little mouth, and whispered: "Second Miss, do you want to take a bath with me?"
Miss Qin Er smiled and said, "Okay, if Brother Qingzhou wants, Wei Mo will accompany Brother Qingzhou later."
Luo Qingzhou kissed her again, entered the house, took off his shoes, walked into the room, untied the belt around his waist, and said to the door: "Second Miss, wait a minute..."
He suddenly felt something was wrong and immediately turned around and looked towards the inner room.
Behind the beaded curtain.
Nangong Meijiao had her long hair loose and was wearing pajamas. She was standing there with a pair of bare snow-white feet, looking at him coldly.
The two looked at each other.
Luo Qingzhou: “…”
“Whoosh—”
After a moment's pause, he immediately grabbed his clothes and ran out of the room.
Miss Qin II was laughing secretly with her hands covering her mouth at the door.
Luo Qingzhou was startled, quickly put on his clothes, and whispered, "Why is the princess in the room?"
Miss Qin held back her laughter, her face turned serious, and she said softly, "Brother Qingzhou, Sister Meijiao came last night, and knowing that you didn't come back, she waited in the room all night. When Weimo woke up in the morning, Sister Meijiao told Weimo that you were fine, and then she went to bed."
Luo Qingzhou frowned when he heard this.
Something happened to him last night. Nie Yunrong must have told her about it, so she came to Qin's house and waited all night.
Nie Yunrong informed her only after he saw that he was fine this morning.
So she went to bed in the morning.
Thinking of this, Luo Qingzhou was suddenly moved and a little ashamed.
"Why didn't you tell me what happened outside just now?"
Luo Qingzhou glanced at the person in front of him, reached out and pinched her delicate face, but did not dare to use force. After pinching, he rubbed her face.
Miss Qin pouted: "Wei Mo did it on purpose. It was Brother Qingzhou who made me worry last night."
Luo Qingzhou hugged her, kissed her forehead again, and whispered: "I will tell you in advance next time."
When the two were being intimate, Qiu Er whispered outside: "Son-in-law, which room are you going to take a shower in?"
Luo Qingzhou pointed to Xiaodie's room.
Qiu'er turned and left.
"Brother Qingzhou, do you want Weimo to take a bath with you later?"
Miss Qin asked with a smile.
Luo Qingzhou ignored her and went straight into Xiaodie's room.
Miss Qin Er also went into her room with a smile.
Luo Qingzhou entered Xiaodie's room, took off his coat, and looked around.
Qiu'er and Zhu'er quickly brought the bathtub, poured hot water into it, and put flower petals and soap in it.
Luo Qingzhou took off all his clothes, dropped two drops of medicine into the bathtub, and then got into the bathtub.
Qiu'er came into the room and rubbed his back and washed his hair.
Luo Qingzhou asked: "Is Xiaodie still busy these two days?"
Qiu Er smiled and said, "Of course I am busy. Madam can't live without her anymore. She takes her with her every time she goes out."
Luo Qingzhou said worriedly: "Don't tire that girl out."
Qiu'er said softly, "Don't worry, Master. Xiaodie's work isn't hard work, and she's happy to help Madam. Madam treats her differently from other maids, and has never scolded her. She even said that when she has a child, she will make her a concubine instead of a maid."
Luo Qingzhou said: "It doesn't matter whether she is a concubine or not. I don't treat her as a concubine."
Qiu Er said, "That's different. The son-in-law doesn't care, but Xiao Die and the others do. The servants in the mansion are all watching. The status of a maidservant and a concubine are quite different."
Luo Qingzhou turned his head and looked at her and said, "Then do you want to be my uncle's concubine?"
Qiu Er smiled and shook her head: "I am satisfied to be the maidservant of the master. I am the lady's person. As long as the master does not leave the lady, I will not leave the master. It doesn't matter what I do. And the master treats me so well, I am very satisfied."
Luo Qingzhou stroked her soft little hand and said nothing more.
By the time he finished his bath, changed into a clean Confucian robe and went out, Nangong Meijiao had already left.
Miss Qin Er said softly, "Sister Meijiao may be afraid of disturbing us, so she left. I wanted to keep her here to have dinner with us."
Luo Qingzhou was silent for a while after hearing this. Without thinking any more, he said, "Second Miss, I'm going to Lingchan Moon Palace. Are you going?"
Miss Qin Er asked, "Do you want to see your sister?"
Luo Qingzhou said: "No, I have something to talk to Xia Chan about."
Miss Qin Er smiled and said, "Then Brother Qingzhou can go by himself. Weimo will not go. Weimo will go to pay his respects to sister in the evening."
Luo Qingzhou nodded, said nothing more, and walked out quickly.
When we arrived at the gate of Lingchan Moon Palace, we heard the clear and melodious singing of a lark in the courtyard: "At the end of the sky, at the corner of the earth, half of my friends are gone..."
Luo Qingzhou stood at the door and listened for a while. After she finished singing and paused, he walked in and asked in amazement, "Bai Ling, who was singing just now? It was so beautiful, like the sound of nature. It must be a fairy who fell from the sky, right?"
Bai Ling laughed, holding a pink flower in her hand, and said in a crisp voice with a smile as beautiful as a flower: "Son-in-law, you are so sweet-mouthed, you must have done something bad outside again, right?"
Luo Qingzhou said: "What bad things can I do? Where is Chanchan? I have something to do with her."
Bailing immediately stretched out her arm to stop him and said, "Chanchan is practicing sword in the backyard, you can't go."
Luo Qingzhou asked in confusion: "It's not like I haven't been there before when she was practicing sword skills. Why can't I go today?"
Bai Ling glanced around and whispered like a thief: "I don't know where Chanchan picked up a set of sword skills, it's very powerful, I don't dare to go over, my legs will go weak if I go over, I'm afraid of being torn into pieces by the sword energy. Son-in-law, you are so weak, even weaker than me, you can't go over."
"oh?"
When Luo Qingzhou heard this, he thought to himself: Could it be that I was the one who taught her the black and white swordsmanship
Thinking of this, he said, "Now that you mention it, I'm even more curious. It's okay, I'll stand farther away and watch, not get close."
Bai Ling still stretched out her arms to stop him, saying, "Son-in-law, I am thinking about your safety, you...ah..."
Before she could finish, Luo Qingzhou picked her up and said, "Let's go and take a look together. The uncle is very curious about Chanchan's swordsmanship."
Bai Ling clung to his embrace, hugged his neck with both arms, and struggled, "Stinky son-in-law, let me down..."
Luo Qingzhou warned: "If you say I stink again, I'll make you eat my saliva for an hour later."
Bai Ling made a "woo" sound and didn't dare to say anything else. She put her cheek against his neck and rubbed it with some grunting.
When Luo Qingzhou carried her to the door of the back garden, he put her down and suddenly asked, "Is the eldest lady in there?"
Bai Ling panted and said: "In..."
Luo Qingzhou looked at her suspiciously and said, "Chanchan is practicing swordsmanship, even you are afraid, isn't Miss afraid?"
Bailing paused for a moment and said, "Chanchan likes to bully others. She scares them on purpose every time. Of course, she doesn't dare to bully Miss."
Hearing this, Luo Qingzhou walked into the garden.
“Swish!”
Xia Chan thrust out a sword, and instantly a series of sword shadows were stabbed out. The edge of each sword shadow covered a big tree in front from a different direction.
"Shh! Shh! Shh!"
Dozens of shallow sword marks instantly appeared on the trunk of the big tree.
Luo Qingzhou's heart trembled.
This sword move is very powerful and extremely fast, and it is not a black or white sword technique.
“Swish!”
Xia Chan drew her sword again, her figure was erratic, and one could only hear the sound but could not see the figure or the sword.
Luo Qingzhou didn't dare to move forward. He stopped at the round gate, holding his breath and looking carefully.
The more he looked, the more frightened he became.
This sword technique is not only fast, but also mysterious and unpredictable. Each move can be transformed into dozens of moves, each of which is tricky and deadly.
He was secretly delighted.
Chanchan is so powerful, that Aunt Linghu will definitely be defeated.
However, he had some doubts in his mind.
Chan Chan usually never goes out of the house, so how did she get this powerful swordsmanship
"Uncle, Chanchan is missing."
Bailing hid behind him and said in surprise.
Luo Qingzhou said: "Behind you."
"Tsk, you just love to scare people."
Bailing's face was full of disbelief, but the next second, she suddenly turned around and saw a figure suddenly appeared behind her silently and strangely, looking at her with a cold face.
"ah-"
Bailing was startled and immediately shouted, "Chanchan, spare me, Chanchan, spare me, I didn't steal your money to buy candied haws, and I didn't touch you while you were sleeping. It was my uncle, it was my uncle who did it..."
The words in her mouth suddenly stopped, she hurriedly opened her eyes and covered her mouth.
Luo Qingzhou sneered: "Are you confessing yourself?"
Bailing had a sad face and hid behind him in a hurry.
Luo Qingzhou looked at the cold girl in front of him and asked, "Chanchan, your swordsmanship..."
“I picked it up.”
Before he could ask, Xia Chan put away her sword and spoke coldly.
Luo Qingzhou's mouth twitched, and he said, "I know I picked it up. I just want to ask where you picked it up. I have a friend who also wants to try his luck."
"snort!"
Xia Chan snorted, turned and went into the garden without paying any attention to him.
Luo Qingzhou looked at her proud appearance and slender back, and muttered to himself: Little girl, I'll make you hum enough later.
He walked into the garden.
In the pavilion.
A beautiful girl in a snow-white dress was sitting in front of a stone table, stroking the strings of a guzheng with her hands, frowning slightly, as if she was thinking about something.
Xia Chan walked into the pavilion and stood behind her, with her arms folded across her chest, sword in her arms, and her pretty face turned away.
Luo Qingzhou entered the pavilion and greeted Miss Qin first. Seeing that Miss Qin was thinking about something and ignored him, he looked at Xia Chan and whispered, "Chanchan, come with me to the Exiled Immortal Residence. The uncle has something to tell you."
Xia Chan's face changed slightly, she tightened her grip on the sword, and two faint blushes quickly rose on her pretty face. She turned her back to him and said, "No, I won't go."
When Luo Qingzhou was about to speak, Miss Qin suddenly raised her head, looked at him and asked, "Where did you go last night?"
