Station.
"Eh? Second prince, prince, why are you the only ones back? Where are my sister and the others?" Su Qian did not enter the palace today. After all, he was not on the list of envoys and had nothing to do with the Northern Qi Emperor.
"The princess and Doctor Xuan are staying in the palace today, and they won't come back until tomorrow." Xiao Han answered his questions.
"Ah..." Su Qian's face immediately fell, "I was planning to hang out with my sister and the others, but why are they not coming back?"
Seeing this, Xiao Yan also wanted to get closer to this little cousin, "I...I have nothing to do today. I can go out with my cousin for a walk."
Su Qian was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Xiao Yan to answer, "Ah... are you okay?"
Xiao Yan was a little embarrassed, "I feel pretty good these past few days, and I also want to go out for a walk. This is my first time in Beiqi."
Xu Ying and Li Zilong on the side looked at each other, and Xu Ying immediately said, "Yes, this is my first time coming to Beiqi. I wonder if Master Su would mind if we come together, hahaha."
Su Qian was smart and naturally knew that Xu Ying and Li Zilong wanted to protect the second prince personally, "Hahahaha, there are so many people and it's so lively, let's go together." Then he looked at Xiao Han, "Where is the prince?"
Xiao Han shook his head, "I won't go, I still have some official duties."
The group of people left without forcing themselves.
"Someone is coming."
As soon as Xiao Han finished his voice, a young man in black appeared in front of him, "Master."
"Secret protection."
"Yes." The boy disappeared instantly.
Xiao Yi pushed Xiao Han into the inner courtyard, "Master, there is a letter."
"Um."
Xiao Yi handed several letters to Xiao Han. After a while, Xiao Han put down the letters and said, "No news from my grandfather?"
"Last time you asked me to send a message to Uncle Zhou, but there has been no reply yet."
Xiao Han fell into deep thought, where is his grandfather? He knew that although his grandfather was not in Kyoto, he definitely knew everything about Kyoto. Why didn't he show up?
In the afternoon of the next day, Su Yue, Xuan Xiaosan and Xuan Xiaosi returned to the inn.
"Sister, you are finally back. Huh? Xiaosi, Doctor Xuan, what happened to you? Who beat you?" Su Qian was shocked when he saw the bruises on the nose and face of the two brothers.
Su Yue pursed her lips and chuckled. This smile made Xuan Xiaosan angry, "You still have the nerve to laugh? You heartless girl, don't you know why we were punished by senior brother? If it weren't for you, would we have been beaten?"
Xuan Xiaosi was also aggrieved, "That's right, Xiao Wu, you are too bad. If I hadn't helped you, would I have been beaten like this by senior brother?" It hurts so much...
"Ahem, I didn't laugh. It's not like you don't know the temper of this senior brother, and there's nothing I can do about it." Su Yue felt guilty.
At this time, Xiao Yan and Xiao Han also came out, and they were very surprised to see their condition. Xiao Han was the first to ask with concern, "What happened to Doctor Xuan and Brother Xiaosi? Are they being bullied?"
The two brothers looked at Xiao Han at the same time, their eyes filled with anger.
Although Xuan Xiaosan has a good relationship with Xiao Han on weekdays, he was beaten by his senior brother because of him, and he was still angry. "Humph, then you have to ask the prince."
Xiao Han looked confused. What did he... do?
Su Yue didn't want to discuss this at the door of the inn, "Oh, third and fourth senior brothers, you two are injured. Have you given medicine today? Let's take medicine in the room first."
Xuan Xiaosan glared at her bitterly, "Don't come here, I'll settle the score with you later." Then he left without looking back.
When Xuan Xiaosi passed by Su Yue, he also let out an angry "hum".
Su Yue touched her nose, she had really offended the two senior brothers now. The fourth senior brother was okay, I would just give him something delicious to coax him later, but the third senior brother...it seemed like he was there again There's going to be a lot of bleeding.
Xiao Yan asked Su Yue curiously, "What happened to the two of them? Did they really fight with someone?"
"Ahem, it's not a fight. My senior brother, third and fourth senior brothers haven't seen each other for a long time, so we're just sparring. Hehe, sparring." Then he glanced at Xiao Han.
Xiao Han was also looking at Su Yue at this time. He might know why Doctor Xuan and the others were beaten. The corners of his mouth turned up unconsciously. It seemed that he would soon be able to be with the little girl legitimately.
Ouyang Xu: Humph, it’s not that easy. Wolf cubs, if you dare to snatch their Xiaowu, wait for him.
"Ah, you beat him so hard in a sparring match. The Emperor of Northern Qi is very skilled?" Xiao Yan was filled with envy. He is in poor health and has not been able to practice martial arts since he was a child. His sister and several senior brothers are so skilled, which makes him very envious.
"There are several brothers among us. The second brother is the best in martial arts. He is the most talented in this area. Then there is my senior brother. The three of us can only be beaten."
"Ah? Then you... you will also be beaten?" Xiao Yan was a little worried.
"Haha, of course I won't. Only the third and fourth senior brothers will be beaten, especially the fourth senior brother, hehe."
Xiao Han looked at Su Yue's sly smile and felt anxious in his heart, "The princess just came back. I have something to tell the second prince and you."
"Huh? What's the matter?" Su Yue was a little curious.
"Come and sit with me. I just got some good tea. I'll treat the second prince to a drink." Xiao Han said to Xiao Yan, but Su Yue knew that Xiao Han wanted to spend more time with her, hehehe.
Xiao Yan didn't notice anything else, "Then there is Prince Lao."
Several people came to Xiao Han's yard, and Xiao Yi asked people to serve tea.
"I just got the news that everything is going well with General Su Yu. The relief food has been collected. They also found a craftsman who is good at digging wells in Jianghu to help. It can be regarded as a successful completion of the task assigned to him by the emperor."
Indeed, two days after Su Yu arrived in Yicheng, Madman Zhou led a group of Jianghu people to escort the food he had raised to Yicheng, and also brought some experts who were looking for water sources.
"Then the eldest brother is returning now?" Su Yue was a little uneasy. King Jing would definitely not let the eldest brother go so smoothly.
"Well, we are on our way back. However, there are many knights and knights around us, so safety should not be a problem."
Xiao Yan nodded, "It's good to be able to return to Beijing safely. I'm relieved that my eldest brother is here and can help my grandfather."
"There has been a lot of commotion in Beijing recently. The Emperor and the General's Office are deliberately suppressing the Queen Mother's faction. The situation in the court is very tense at this time."
Xiao Yan's eyes were dark and unclear. When he left the capital, his father mentioned to him that he probably wanted to clean up the court while he and his sister were away from the capital, so that it would be easier for him to officially enter the court in the future.
Su Yue was also a little worried. Her grandfather was old. "How is my grandfather doing now?"
Xiao Han smiled gently at her, "Don't worry, princess. General Zhenguo has been in the court for many years, and there are many people secretly and openly involved. As long as he is not restricted, nothing can be done to him."
Yes, her grandfather was forced to go to the border for many years because her brother was poisoned. But now that she and her brother are far away from Kyoto, there is really nothing that can suppress her grandfather.
