Bian Ding was naturally hiding in the dark. Raven and Su Qian'an also returned to the Hou Mansion with Xia Chu, but it was not convenient to disturb the family happiness shared by the three generations of their ancestors and grandchildren at this moment.
Therefore, after he returned to the Hou Mansion, he went to Suyuan to wait, and told the good news of Master Qianle's return.
Xiao Zimu took Xin Ya to send Zheng Zhongguang to Xiang's house. Xia Chu had also asked before that if the imperial doctor came to diagnose and treat him, he would be sent to Xiang Chengfang if not.
Xiang Chengfang naturally responded with fear and took care of him carefully.
Xiao Zimu left Chi Ying to protect him secretly, and then returned directly to the palace.
Xu Wenlan naturally relied on Xiao Mubai to go back to Prince Mo's Mansion, eager to know what happened between Xiao Mubai and Xia Chu.
Why did he suddenly return to Beijing, and how did he get involved with His Highness Seventh Prince and General Zhao.
He kept chattering all the way and was almost kicked out by Xiao Mubai as soon as he entered the palace.
As for Xia Chu, the emperor's decree was sent to him first because the Marquis and General Zhao hadn't finished the meal yet.
The first thing Xiao Zimu did after entering the palace was naturally to see the emperor, and he said everything he needed to say.
The emperor knew that Xia Chu had come down the mountain, so he summoned him to the palace and held a family banquet for him in the evening.
The Marquis and General Zhao were naturally invited together. Zhao Xingwen also went together because he wanted to enter the palace to thank him for the marriage.
After lunch, Xia Chu coaxed Mr. Hou and Old General Zhao to take a nap. Zhao Xingwen got free time and rushed straight to Huo Mansion to meet his sister Wen Shu.
Xia Chu took Raven back to Yunqiyuan, changed clothes, and went to Suyuan. Although he knew in his letter that Qianle had recovered, he still had to come and see it in person to feel relieved.
Su Qianle, who was staying in the room in Su Yuan, heard that Su Qian'an said that the young master had been very excited when he returned to the house. He dressed himself up well, and after a cup of tea, he went out to see if the young master was here.
Su Qian'an couldn't bear it anymore, so he pushed her down on the stool and asked her to wait calmly.
Su Qianle was restless, holding the silk handkerchief she was going to give to the young master in her hand. It was a little wet with sweat. It wasn't until the maid Shuanglu called out "Master" from outside the door that Su Qian'an and Su Qianle hurriedly stood up. .
Shuanglu opened the door, and Xia Chu walked in. Seeing the rosy-faced Su Qianle, she smiled and said, "Qianle is better looking now that she has recovered from her illness."
Su Qianle smiled shyly, her face turned red.
Su Qian'an asked Xia Chu to sit down, and he immediately extended his hand, and Su Qianle immediately handed her wrist to him to check his pulse.
After a moment, Xia Chu nodded: "It's indeed better. This is a dress brought to you from outside as a gift. I don't know if you like it or not."
After Xia Chu finished speaking, he took the package from Raven's hand and handed it to Su Qianle.
Su Qianle was naturally very happy and whispered: "No matter what the young master gives, Qianle will always like it."
After she took the package, she handed over the silk handkerchief with some hesitation: "I embroidered it myself. I hope the young master won't dislike it."
Xia Chu didn't like to use silk handkerchiefs. She thought it was easy to get dirty and troublesome, but seeing Su Qianle's uneasy look, she couldn't bear to brush her hand and took it.
He originally thought it would be okay to keep it in the room, but when he took it and shook it open, he realized that it was a pair of mandarin ducks. He immediately felt that this square silk handkerchief was really hot to touch.
Su Qianle was originally excited when she saw him accept her, but unexpectedly, she was pushed back by Xia Chu in an instant.
"Um, Qianle. Master, I'm really not used to wearing silk handkerchiefs. You see, I never wear silk handkerchiefs. I accept your wishes, okay?" Xia Chu considered his words and then said to her .
Su Qianle was a little distracted while holding the square silk handkerchief in her hand, and nodded numbly.
"I want to take Qian'an out for a trip, and I'll come see you when I have time." Xia Chu didn't know how to comfort him when he saw this, so he found an excuse and left.
Su Qianle's face was full of disappointment, but she didn't say anything in the end and looked at his back until he left the room.
When Shuanglu saw that the young master had gone far away, she entered the house. Seeing Su Qianle's unhappy face, she found something to comfort her: "Is this the dress the young master gave me? The young master is really kind to the young lady."
Su Qianle looked at the pink dress and felt a little comforted. At least the young master remembered her.
Seeing that her expression softened slightly, Shuanglu continued, "You see, the young master has never had another woman by his side. The young lady is always special."
Su Qianle heard this and then laughed and cursed: "You are the only one with a poor mouth."
When Xia Chu left the Hou Mansion, he asked Su Qian'an to drive to Mingxiang Garden. He was not deceiving Su Qianle. He originally planned to find Wuma Huacai, but Su Qianle frightened him into leaving the house early.
As for Bingwen, although he didn't know the news of Xia Chu's return in the morning, at noon, the news that the Marquis and Old General Zhao were taking the young Marquis back to the house had already spread throughout the capital.
Therefore, Bingwen had already called Bian Hao to ask about it in the mansion. When he learned that Xia Chu would come over after dinner, he was extremely excited and stayed in Mingxiang Garden to look forward to it.
At this time, he had been pacing back and forth inside the gate of Mingxiang Garden for a long time.
Shi Zhongfei was really dazzled but could not stop him until there was a knock on the door. Bingwen quickly stopped Jiao Shi who was about to open the door and walked to the door himself to open the door.
He looked at Xia Chu who was standing outside the door, and saw that his face had grown longer and his height had also increased. His eyes were still charming, but they were no longer as childish as when they first met in Beijing. He was only four years old. In half a month, it felt like they had been apart for many years, which made him feel sad.
Perhaps a lot of things did happen in Beijing during this period, which made him grow up rapidly and also made him feel a lot for Xia Chu.
"What? You don't invite me in?" Xia Chu smiled sweetly at Bingwen Qiao, who was in a daze.
"Even though I have been waiting for you to come back, it still feels unreal." Bingwen laughed and turned sideways, letting the three of them enter Mingxiang Garden.
Shi Zhongfei came up early in the morning. Ever since he was dragged into drinking by Bingwen in the middle of the night last time, he had already been very fond of the young marquis. Naturally, he also knew that it was Xia Chu who ordered Bingwen to take good care of him after entering the capital.
Therefore, Shi Zhongfei's etiquette was particularly correct and he called out respectfully: "Little Marquis."
"This is Shi Zhongfei who I told you about." Bingwen introduced him.
"Just follow them and call me Young Master. You don't have to be so restrained." Xia Chu nodded and smiled gently at him.
Shi Zhongfei said 'yes' and stood up to lead them to the pavilion in the backyard.
"Kong Changhui is on duty at the Criminal Department. There seems to be some problem with the finishing work of Prince Yu's Mansion. Xie Jiming is busy dealing with it. Both of them will not be back until evening." Bingwen explained to Xia Chu as he walked.
Xia Chu nodded and understood, and said something to Bingwen.
"Take me to see Wuma Huacai first."
