Winter nights are extremely cold.
The streets were already deserted, with only a few remaining lamps in front of the shops still swaying gently in the biting cold wind, as if greeting someone.
In the dark alley, there are occasional figures sitting there alone, eating cold scraps of food with a blank look on their faces.
In mid-air, there is a spirit patrolling.
From time to time, a group of armored patrols would pass by coldly on the streets.
Luo Qingzhou sat in the carriage, thought for a while, and then replied to Xiaoyue: [Okay, I'm going to the Yunwu River outside the city tonight. If you can come out, go find me there]
Judging from the situation in the palace tonight, he must find a way out for the people in the Qin mansion as soon as possible.
So he decided to go to the riverside tonight to have a look. Not only did he need to choose a place to live, but he also needed to find out all about the nearby environment, so that if an emergency happened in the future, he would not be too hasty.
Xiaoyue's message was quickly replied: [Brother, why do you want to go to such a far place? 】
Luo Qingzhou: [I have something to do when I go out. By the way, there are spirits patrolling both the outer city and the inner city tonight. If you really want to come out, be careful. But I advise you, it’s better to stay at home for the time being]
Xiaoyue: [Brother, my sister has been wronged at home and doesn’t want to stay at home anymore. Can my brother take her in? 】
Luo Qingzhou: [Sorry, I can't protect myself. Xiaoyue, actually being aggrieved is nothing, being able to save your life is the most important thing]
Xiaoyue: [Brother, does someone want to take your life? Tell sister, who is it? My sister will kill his whole family immediately! 】
Luo Qingzhou: [Take care of yourself]
Xiaoyue: [Brother, can you tell me what it is? My sister’s identity is not simple, maybe she can directly help my brother solve the problem]
Luo Qingzhou: [No need, I have to deal with my own affairs]
Xiaoyue: [Does my brother still treat my sister as an outsider? My brother has always only trusted his senior sister, but not his sister, right? 】
Luo Qingzhou: [No more talking, I’m going home]
Xiaoyue: [Oh]
Luo Qingzhou did not reply.
The carriage quickly turned around the street and stopped at the entrance of Maple Leaf Alley.
Li Gui's sharp voice sounded outside: "Master Luo, we're here."
Luo Qingzhou opened the car curtain and walked out.
Li Gui stood below, bowing his head with a respectful expression on his face, and did not dare to say another word.
Luo Qingzhou's slightly raised palm had no choice but to lower it again, got off the carriage, and said: "Eunuch Li, I have to listen to the Queen Mother and the Holy One recently, study hard at home, and don't bother me anymore, do you understand?"
Li Gui immediately bowed and said, "Yes, I understand."
Luo Qingzhou stretched out his hand and frightened him, but he just patted his shoulder and said: "Eunuch Li, serve the Holy Emperor well, and we will be colleagues from now on."
Li Gui's eyes flashed with hatred, and he secretly said in his heart: "Little bastard, one day, our family will kill you!"
However, he quickly said respectfully: "Young man, He De, I don't dare to compare with Mr. Luo."
"Snapped!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Qingzhou raised his palm and suddenly gave him a slap in the face. He shouted coldly: "Eunuch Li, you are the personal eunuch of the Holy Emperor. How can you belittle yourself, accept your inferiority, and say you dare not compete with me? Beat the dog." It also depends on the master. You are the Holy One’s closest servant, and you carry the Holy One’s endless light. Who can compare with you? Are you looking down on the Holy One’s endless light? You are being treasonous!”
Li Gui's cheeks were burning and he froze in place: "..."
The guards behind seemed to be used to it, and they all stood still, motionless.
"Hmph, next time you speak so openly and without a holy view, I will go to the palace to report to the Queen Mother, so that you can't eat and walk around!"
After Luo Qingzhou finished speaking, he strode away.
Until his back disappeared, Li Guifang raised his head with red eyes.
He gritted his teeth, as if he wanted to curse a few words, but he was afraid that the other person was still hiding in the dark alley waiting to slap him, so he turned around and left in frustration.
"You little bastard, wait!"
After walking a long distance, he cursed through gritted teeth.
Luo Qingzhou returned to his mansion.
The entire Qin family was waiting anxiously in the hall, and they were relieved to see him come back safe and sound.
Luo Qingzhou briefly explained the process and went back with Miss Qin Er.
After returning to Meixiang Xiaoyuan, he told Miss Qin everything that happened in the palace.
Miss Qin Er frowned slightly, pondered for a while, and said: "Brother Qingzhou, the eldest princess should know your difficulties. However, since the eldest princess can pass the note, why not express her thoughts? At least it can let you Peace of mind.”
Luo Qingzhou was silent for a moment and said, "Maybe she is still conflicted."
Miss Qin Er nodded slightly: "That should be the case. I can only find another opportunity to have a good chat with the eldest princess."
Luo Qingzhou sighed and said: "There should be no chance a year ago. I will definitely not be able to meet her for the time being. I will probably have to wait until the Taikang Feast before I have the chance."
Miss Qin Er said softly: "Brother Qingzhou, have you thought of a way to go out and practice?"
Luo Qingzhou nodded and said: "Princess Meijiao said that she should be able to come tomorrow, and I can leave then. I will be back in ten days at most."
Miss Qin Er said: "Do you want to take Xia Chan with you?"
Luo Qingzhou said: "No, I'm here to practice, not to fight."
After a pause, he suddenly woke up and said, "Second Miss, are you afraid that I will mess around with others outside, and do you want Chan Chan to look at me?"
Miss Qin Er said with a smile: "No, does Weimo look like that kind of narrow-minded person?"
Luo Qingzhou hugged her and pressed her head against her head: "Wei Mo, let me tell you something. I promise the princess that when I come back, I will follow her..."
"Um."
Before he finished speaking, Miss Qin responded: "That's right. Sister Meijiao has done so many things for us. Without her, our people in the Qin Mansion would have been captured by the Jinyi Guards. You can take revenge, she He also put in a lot of effort. Brother Qingzhou should indeed be responsible for her. However, it is difficult to explain to the prince and princess. If they find out, I'm afraid..."
Luo Qingzhou said: "The princess said to hide it from them. The princess also said that she would secretly be my little lover and not let others know. She would also secretly conceive a baby for me, and then give the baby to you and Chanchanyang..."
Second Miss Qin sighed softly and said: "Sister Meijiao is a member of the royal family, so she cannot be a concubine. Brother Qingzhou, in fact, Wei Mo..."
Luo Qingzhou kissed her small mouth and said: "Don't talk nonsense, you can't be a concubine, I will never allow it."
Second Miss Qin stopped talking, remained silent for a moment, and said softly: "Brother Qingzhou, Sister Meijiao is so kind, you must treat her well, don't let her down, don't hurt her, okay?"
Luo Qingzhou said: "Yes, I will."
Second Miss Qin raised her pretty little face, looked at him softly and said, "Brother Qingzhou, when will we... fall in love?"
Luo Qingzhou let go of her, turned around and said, "Qiu'er, Xiaodie, boil some water, I want to take a bath."
Outside he agreed and went to the kitchen.
Luo Qingzhou walked to the couch and sat down, picked up a book from the side and said, "I'll read for a while."
Second Miss Qin pouted her lips slightly, walked over, lay in his arms, and said quietly: "Brother Qingzhou, you have already promised Sister Meijiao, she obviously came first."
Luo Qingzhou put down the book in his hand, held her delicate and soft body on his lap, caressed her beautiful and delicate face and said: "Wei Mo, just wait a little longer. As long as you are healthy, I will I'll love you every day, okay?"
Second Miss Qin pressed herself into his arms and sighed, "I don't know when."
Luo Qingzhou stroked the soft hair behind her and said softly: "Don't worry, I am confident that I can completely cure your disease. When the time comes, you will beg for mercy."
Second Miss Qin hugged his neck, raised her little face and said, "Brother Qingzhou loves to talk nonsense, has Qiu'er begged for mercy?"
Luo Qingzhou said: "Both Xiaodie and Chanchan begged for mercy."
Miss Qin Er said: "I'm asking about Qiu'er."
Luo Qingzhou said: "Wei Mo, let me ask you something. What do you think of Bai Ling?"
Miss Qin Er snorted and said, "Brother Qingzhou is changing the subject again. Bailing is very good, beautiful, cute, lively, and smart. Lingchan Moon Palace only comes to life because of her."
Luo Qingzhou said: "Do you think she has ever practiced?"
Second Miss Qin was slightly startled when she heard this. She thought about it carefully and shook her head: "Probably not. It turns out that so many things happened in Mocheng, but I have never seen her take action. Brother Qingzhou, why do you suddenly ask about this matter?" What happened?"
Luo Qingzhou said: "It's okay, I just asked casually."
Miss Qin Er said softly: "After you take a shower later, remember to go and see your sister. My sister has been feeling unwell for the past two days. Please go and talk to her more often."
Luo Qingzhou said: "Are you going?"
Second Miss Qin said: "It's windy outside, so Wei Mo won't go out."
Luo Qingzhou looked at her suspiciously, was silent for a while, and said, "Weimo, you always ask me to go to Lingchan Moon Palace alone to see the eldest lady and accompany her. What on earth do you want to do?"
Miss Qin Er said: "I just feel that my sister is too lonely and has no one to talk to her. It just so happens that Brother Qingzhou can tell stories and talk, so I let Brother Qingzhou go. If there are other people in our Qin Mansion, like Qingzhou Brother Zhou is so good at talking, Weimo will naturally not trouble Brother Qingzhou."
Luo Qingzhou said: "Is this really the only reason?"
Miss Qin Er said: "Yes, what does Brother Qingzhou think? Does Brother Qingzhou think that Wei Mo wants Brother Qingzhou to get back together with his sister?"
Luo Qingzhou said no more.
The two sat for a while, and after the hot water was heated, Qiu'er and Xiaodie carried the tub in and filled it with hot water.
Luo Qingzhou first put the potion in, then took off his clothes and got into the tub.
After the potion was absorbed, Miss Qin Er came behind him and personally helped him wash his body.
The two chatted about the store again.
The store's business is very good, but it has not expanded, and the orders are not too many.
After taking a shower.
Luo Qingzhou went out and went to Lingchan Moon Palace, preparing to pay his respects to the eldest lady.
When I came to the door, the clear and clear song of a lark came from the yard, singing "Spring River Flowers and Moonlight Night".
Luo Qingzhou couldn't help but think again of Miss Qin's suddenly gentle tone that night in the back garden: "I'll play it to you again when I get used to it, okay?"
However, after the eldest lady finished speaking, she seemed to have forgotten this sentence.
Luo Qingzhou thought for a while, and after the singing in the courtyard ended, he stepped forward and knocked on the door, saying: "Bailing."
Bai Ling immediately said in the courtyard: "Uncle, who are you looking for?"
Luo Qingzhou said: "I came here to pay my respects to the eldest lady on the order of the second lady."
Bai Ling said: "Miss has gone to bed, please come back tomorrow night."
Luo Qingzhou said: "Then open the door and I will talk to you."
Bai Ling said at the door: "I don't want it. My uncle wants to tease me again, but I'm not that stupid."
Luo Qingzhou didn't say anything more and turned around to leave.
At this time, Bai Ling's voice came from the courtyard again: "Unless I take out the rabbit for others to play with."
Luo Qingzhou ignored her and left quickly.
"Squeak..."
The courtyard door suddenly opened.
Bai Ling stuck his head out: "Uncle, Tutu...Uncle!"
She immediately ran out of the door, looked at the figure who had gone away, and said anxiously: "Uncle! Uncle!"
Luo Qingzhou's back quickly disappeared into the dark night in the distance.
Bai Ling stood there blankly for a long time, then he pursed his lips and said: "Smelly uncle, bad uncle, I have been waiting for so long, ugh..."
Luo Qingzhou returned to the Immortal Residence.
After practicing the inner strength and mental skills for a while, when the time was almost up, Fang took out the messenger ultimatum and sent a message to Sister Yue: [Sister Yue, I am going out of the city tonight, Xiaoyue may also go, will you go? 】
After a while, the message party replied: [Not going]
Luo Qingzhou hesitated for a moment and said: [Is Sister Yue making alchemy? 】
The other party did not reply again.
Luo Qingzhou waited for a while, and Xiaoyue suddenly sent a message: [Brother, are you out of town? My sister is ready to go]
Luo Qingzhou immediately replied: [Be careful, there are souls patrolling both the outer city and the inner city]
Xiaoyue: [Brother, don’t worry, my sister is very powerful]
Just as Luo Qingzhou was about to put away the summons, Xiao Meijiao also sent a message: [Daddy promised me, I will take Aunt Mu and Nanny Jiu there tomorrow morning. Brother Feiyang, can you leave later? Poor little Meijiao, I haven’t seen you for a long time, I really want to see you]
Luo Qingzhou replied: [I will set off before dawn. There will be many vendors entering and leaving the city at that time, so they will not attract anyone's attention]
Xiao Meijiao: [Oh, okay, then come back early and don’t mess around with women outside and get dirty by other women, okay? 】
Luo Qingzhou: [Okay]
Little Meijiao: [Love you]
Luo Qingzhou hesitated for a moment and replied: [Love you too, good night]
Little Meijiao: [Well, good night]
Luo Qingzhou put away the messenger document and suddenly saw a figure standing silently outside the window.
He immediately went over, opened the window, and said, "Chanchan, are you here to protect my uncle?"
Xia Chan held the sword and stood in the corridor, with her body tucked away and silent.
Luo Qingzhou rushed out, picked her up, returned to the house, closed the window, put her on the couch, covered her with a quilt, and said softly: "Sit here. Stay warm."
Seeing that he really wanted to practice, Xia Chan said obediently: "Oh."
Luo Qingzhou lowered his head and kissed her mouth, gently bit her lips, and said, "I will reward you after my uncle has finished practicing."
Xia Chan pouted her mouth slightly.
Luo Qingzhou didn't waste any more time, returned to bed, and immediately left his body and flew out of the roof.
Floating on the roof, he couldn't help but glance at the Lingchan Moon Palace not far away.
The courtyard was hazy and silent.
At this time, the messenger ultimatum moved again.
Xiaoyue sent a message: [Brother, my sister is out of town, but she seems to have been discovered. Come and help my sister fight the bad guys. The bad guys seem to be trying to steal my sister's socks]
