    As soon as Xia Qian came in, the conversation in the room suddenly stopped.

    Xia Lan and Xia Di felt a little uncomfortable, thinking about how unrefined the conversation between the two of them was, and they didn't know how much Xia Qian had listened to it.

    "Big brother and second brother, is the young lady of the Qu family you just mentioned Qu Qinyao?" Xia Qian gently fanned herself with a round fan and sat down on the couch in front of the window with a smile.

    Xia Di coughed in embarrassment. Although she wanted to deny it, she also knew that his sister was very smart and ordinary lies could not fool her. She just said: "It's just a few jokes, why did you hear it?"

    Xia Qian covered her mouth with a ball fan and laughed softly, and joked: "Miss Qu is a very good person, and my second brother has good eyesight. I just don't know how he plans to invite her out today, and how he will tease her?  You should know that Miss Qu is very clever, and you can't easily outwit her with ordinary means."

    After hearing this, Xia Lan, who was drinking tea, made a move and glanced at Xia Qian in surprise. It was just that the second brother was messing around, but why did his sister, who was always well-behaved, also join in the fun?

    Xia Di also felt vaguely strange. She looked her sister up and down, wondering if her sister was trying to protect her classmates and test herself with words?  Busy said vaguely: "I don't mean to tease her, but thinking about the Flower Festival today, if I see her on the road, I would like to treat her to a meal and watch the show."

    Xia Xian's eyes moved slightly, and she nodded with a smile: "That's pretty much it. I originally thought Miss Qu was a good person, and I like her very much. If, second brother, you deliberately bully others, sister, I won't agree."

    These words were like a breeze, blowing away the doubts in Xia Di and Xia Lan's hearts at the same time. Xia Di looked relieved and said with a smile: "Since my sister has said so, I naturally don't dare to make mistakes, second brother."

    "But second brother, since you agreed to accompany me out for fun, if you want to block Miss Qu, why would you care about me?" Xia Qian said dissatisfiedly.

    Xia Di raised her eyebrows and said: "Second brother just wants to stay with you for a while, and he won't leave without returning. And won't Seventh Brother and Kang Ping come out of the palace later? You still have so many classmates. When you go out,  I'm sure you'll be supported by everyone, but you still need a second brother?"

    Xia Qian chuckled: "Look at how impatient you are, second brother. Is my sister the one who doesn't know what's going on? You go and accompany your Miss Qu. I'm not annoying my sister. I'm going to play with Kang Ping and the others."  ."

    Xia Di smiled cheekily.

    Xia Lan thought of something and told Xia Di: "Ask the guards Liu and the others in the mansion to follow Ah Qian, so that there won't be any trouble like the time in Dayin Temple."

    Xia Di said seriously: "The arrangements have been made long ago, don't worry, brother."

    Xia Qian thought of seeing Monk Yuanjue in Yuquan Mountain two days ago and wondered: "Big brother and second brother, when we returned to Dayin Temple last time, didn't the emperor suspect that Abbot Yuanjue was cooperating with the thieves outside? Why didn't he be imprisoned?  What if he was released instead?"

    Xia Lan kept her secret and said solemnly: "The emperor left it to Eleven to handle the last matter. I don't know the details. I only know that Eleven seems to have cleared away the suspicion of Yuanjue. The Emperor heard that Yuanjue has been suspected."  However, after suffering the disaster of Chiyu, he was reinstated as the abbot of the Great Yin Temple to appease him, and I heard that he will be made the master of Wuda in the near future."

    Xia Di said disdainfully: "Why does the emperor have such high regard for this Pratyekabuddha? I saw this person last time. He was pretentious and did not look like someone who devoted himself to cultivation."

    "You don't know this. I heard that the emperor was assassinated when he was traveling a few years ago, and he happened to be saved by Yuan Jie. The emperor was grateful for his life-saving grace, and this is how the prosperous Dayin Temple was built today." Xia Lan  He took a sip of tea and put the tea cup back on the table.

    Xia Di found it interesting and wanted to ask more questions, but Xia Qian was not very interested in these old news. She still brought the topic back to Qin Yao and asked casually: "Second brother, I wonder where you and Miss Qu are going to have dinner?"  Which theater are you planning to go to to watch Bianwen?" "

    Xia Di touched her nose and said, "Let's bring the person here first. Miss Qu has always had a bad temper and may not be willing to have dinner with me."

    Xia Qian knew that her second brother had a domineering temperament, and once he made up his mind, he had to get what he wanted, so she smiled and said: "Second brother, you don't want to speak in front of your sister, that's all. It's getting late, I guess Kang Ping and the others should be here too."  , since you, eldest and second brothers, don’t want to go out with me, I will travel with Kang Ping and the others."

    After saying that, Xia Xian resigned and returned to her small courtyard.

    Halfway through, he suddenly stopped and wrapped his fingers carelessly around the tassels of the round fan. His eyes were dim and he didn't know what he was thinking.

    After a while, he calmly said to the maid next to him: "In a moment, ask Chen San to follow the second young master and see where he goes. If the second young master is with Miss Qu, quickly send someone to Prince Lan's Mansion to find Brother Eleven.  Just say that Kang Ping and Seventh Brother are waiting for him there and must lead him there."

    The maid blinked and nodded in response.??, go down and deploy.

    Lin Xiao came out of Siruzhai and went to the main room to pay his respects to King Lan.

    King Lan was leaning on the couch leisurely, listening to the performer's music, with his eyes half-closed and his fingers tapping the armrests in time with the rhythm. He felt very comfortable.  Ms. Cui stood beside her, taking a music sheet and flipping through it at will. Her makeup was much plainer than before, she no longer wore pink and purple clothes blindly, and her mouth was also a natural color, and she did not deliberately apply rouge to make it look delicate.  .

    When King Lan saw Lin Xiao, he laughed and said: "In previous years, during the Flower Festival, you would either study and practice swordplay at home, or play Cuju with the prince and Lao Qi in the palace. It's rare that you are willing to go out today. Could it be that you have a young lady that you like?"  Already?"

    Princess Lan also looked at Lin Xiao calmly from the side and saw that he had a handsome face and a tall and straight posture, standing quietly in the morning light, like the cold snow on the mountains, dazzling and a bit dazzling.

    What made her especially sour was that although his face looked calm, his eyes clearly contained some eagerness to try, and there was no need to ask who this expectation was born from.

    Thinking of this, she suddenly felt how wise she was to break Xia Xian's hairpin that day. Even now, the cracking sound of the hairpin when it fell to the ground still sounded in her ears. It was sharp and crisp, and it really made her happy.

    Lin Xiao noticed Cui’s inexplicable gaze and sneered in his heart. He didn’t know what this woman was planning right now. She had a pile of bad debts behind her that had not yet been settled, yet she dared to do something strange. She really didn’t realize that she was about to die.

    Today, he was only looking forward to meeting Qin Yao. He put everything aside and had no time to pay attention to Cui.

    Prince Lan looked at the very similar faces between his son and his deceased wife, and thought about how upright and obedient his son had been over the years, almost never letting him worry about it. He felt a lot of emotion in his heart, and suddenly sighed: "It doesn't matter, you are older now.  You are always in the palace and rarely come back to the house. My father is not sure about your thoughts. But my father knows that you are always safe and never mess around. If you have a young lady you like, go and ask your uncle.  As for the marriage, my father will never object, I will always make you happy."

    Lin Xiao was unexpected and immediately answered: "My father, my son, has taken these words to heart."

    King Lan was slightly startled when he saw that his son seemed to want to put a "no regrets" seal on his words, and then laughed and said: "Okay, okay, don't worry, my father will never go back on his promise."

    ——————————————————————————————

    As soon as Qinyao returned home, she yelled at Caiping and others to let the water go. She entered the clean room, quickly took off her robe, then spread her hair, and washed herself carefully from head to toe.

    When she came out of the clean room with a fragrant wash, Caiping wiped her hair with a handkerchief and said, "Miss, just now a servant from Duke Wei's mansion sent a message saying that Princess Yi Shu invited you out.  Playing."

    "Princess Yi Shu?" Qin Yao glanced at the post on the table suspiciously, then shook her head and said, "Say that I am not in the house, so I should go back to him."

    "Okay." Caiping agreed and said, "Miss, it's getting late. Didn't you make an appointment with Miss Wang and Miss Liu to meet at Nanzeyuan? Hurry up and get dressed up. Let's go out now.  .”

    During the Flower Festival, the streets are filled with beautifully dressed ladies and handsome men, fragrant and prosperous. It brings together all the girls’ fantasies about beautiful things. It is almost considered the favorite festival of the girls in Chang’an.  Nature is no exception.

    Seeing her being so happy, Qin Yao was unconsciously infected with the joy of the festival, and said with a smile: "First bring me some clothes for your lady, and then comb my hair nicely, and we'll finish it off."  Get out."

    Caiping responded happily and took out all the new clothes that Qu Chen had recently put on for Qinyao. She chose from left to right and finally chose a duck egg blue thin sheer gauze skirt. Thinking about the color  It was cool and pleasant, and matched Qin Yao's Qishang Sai Xue's complexion. After putting it on, Qin Yao looked at it for a long time, and then took out a moon-white half-arm and put it on.

    After getting dressed up, Qin Yao went to the main courtyard to bid farewell to the Qu and his wife. Unfortunately, Qu Ziyu had gone out early in the morning and did not know where he went. The plan to invite his brother to go with him failed, so he had to go out alone with Cai Ping.

    As soon as the master and the servant got on the carriage, suddenly a woman dressed in plain clothes ran to the front of the carriage and said with a worried look on her face: "Can I ask if it's Taoist Priest Yuan Zhen? Oh my, I finally found you. There is something evil in my house."  , I am anxiously waiting for Taoist nun to save my life."

    Caiping was confused at first, and then sighed secretly with regret. It seemed that her plan to go out for the festival today was in vain. The young lady loved to slay demons the most, and this woman said something so pitiful. The young lady would never ignore it.  .

    Thinking like this, she sighed quietly and prepared to get off the carriage before the young lady told her to go back home.

    Who would have thought that Qin Yao glanced at the woman up and down, and suddenly said with a smile but not a smile: "This is obviously the Qu Mansion, not a Taoist temple. Who told you that I belong to Taoist Aunt Yuan Zhen?"

    The woman didn't expect Qin Yao to ask this question. She stared blankly for a while and then wanted to speak. However, Qin Yao struck out like lightning, grabbed her wrist and said coldly: "Speak! Who sent you here?"
