Hearing Su Xinyan say that she was fine, Scholar Murong Yi did not make a fuss about it.
What Murong Yixiu didn't know was that Su Xinyan's face was obviously swollen. In order not to let her see it, she had specially applied a light blush on her face.
"Cousin, you mentioned my brother just now. Is he coming back?”Su Xinyan turned her head and looked at Murong Yixiu, her eyes filled with hope. She hoped that Murong Yixiu's answer was yes!
Ever since she died in her previous life, her brother had always been on her mind, but she could not see him until she died. Now, it was finally time for the siblings to meet.
Murong Yixiu smiled and nodded." You're so cunning! I just let it slip, and you guessed it! Cousin Su will arrive in Beijing tomorrow! I heard it from my father, I'm sure it's true.”
He would return tomorrow! Su Xinyan's eyes lit up! Tomorrow! Although he estimated that it had been too long, he didn't want it to be too fast!
Brother is coming back! She wondered if she had lost weight or tanned. He wondered if he had been injured on the battlefield. I wonder if you were afraid during the war? t know
She was engrossed in her thoughts. Her lips were slightly open, and her lively eyes did not move for a moment. She looked very cute.
Murong Yixiu found her reaction funny and waved her hand in front of her, calling her back to her senses.
Su Xin Yan looked at her in confusion, not knowing why Murong Yi Xiu had waved her hand in front of her.
The latter smiled and shook his head. Without waiting for Su Xinyan to speak, she said," Cousin will not return to the capital from the city gate! Cousin had outstanding military achievements. The heroic deputy that Imperial Father mentioned was Cousin Su. To be more accurate, Cousin is returning to the court! I heard from Imperial Father that Second Brother and Fourth Brother are going to the city gate to welcome him tomorrow!”
Su Xinyan did not comment and did not even lift her eyelids.
It didn't matter who picked her brother up at the city gate. It had nothing to do with her. She was only a woman in her boudoir. Even if she wanted to welcome her brother, she could only go to an inn and open the window to see the vast scene outside.
Seeing her indifferent expression, Murong Yixiu pursed her lips into a smile." Why is cousin looking like this?”
Su Xinyan shook her head gently." Of course, I'm happy that you're back. It's just that I haven't seen you for a long time. I wonder how you've become after such a long time. His elder brother had an extraordinary status since he was born. He was destined to live a life of luxury, but now he needed to devote himself to the battlefield.”
Murong Yixiu could hear the sadness in her words, and her heart was filled with emotions. Thus, the two of them quieted down.
After a while, Su Xinyan was the first to speak. She smiled indifferently." It's useless to say these words now. Brother has long joined the battlefield and obtained the glory he deserves! As his sister, I should be happy for him. Brother will return to court tomorrow and I will be the only one left. I won't go out and will just come back from the residence. The emperor would definitely prepare a banquet for him. When he entered the palace for the banquet, he would also be able to see his brother. It's just a matter of time."
That's right. It had been so long since she last saw her brother in her previous life, so she didn't mind a couple of hours.
Murong Yixiu held the teacup and took a sip of the good Yuqian Longjing tea." That's good." Anyway, I don't want to squeeze with others at the city gate. It's better to stay in the palace like you. When it's time to welcome Cousin Su, I'll just go over directly.”
Su Xinyan smiled." Cousin is as lazy as me. Now that my brother is back, I have a suitable gift for him. There are a few good swords in the storeroom. When big brother comes back, I will bring them all to big brother.”
" The thing I want to give to Older Brother Su." Murong Yixiu's eyes rolled around, putting on a pondering look," I won't tell you."”
" Hmph!" Su Xinyan snorted." If you don't tell me, then don't tell me!" Speaking of which, why did cousin come here to look for me today?”
Su Xinyan knew that her cousin didn't have a good impression of the Minister's Residence because she didn't like Su Li Hua and Lady Su. If it wasn't for her, Su Xinyan, being here, her cousin would never have set foot in the Minister's Estate.
Murong Yixiu seemed to have just remembered the official business that she had to do when she left the palace today." Actually, it's nothing."”She placed the teacup on the table and pointed outside." The last time you entered the palace, Mother gave you a few maids. Do you remember that there was also a guard? I brought it for you."
Su Xinyan did not understand. She had already said that she did not want it the last time. Unless that person called Lian Qing was really not bad, the Empress and cousin would not do this just to have one more person by her side. Thinking of this, she pursed her lips and did not say anything.
Suxue had already walked out at this time. She was probably going to the kitchen to bring some pastries over.
"Actually, Lian Qing's martial arts are top-notch. More importantly, Lian Qing used to be a secret guard.”Murong Yixiu told Su Xinyan the truth.
Dark guards! Su Xinyan's eyes lit up. This was not bad!
An hour later, Murong Yixiu left the Raindrop Pavilion with the two female officials. Madam Su sent her out of the Minister's Mansion. Su Xinyan did not dare to leave the Raindrop Pavilion because her legs were inconvenient. She was worried that Murong Yixiu would notice something, so she only stayed in the Raindrop Pavilion and did not send her off because her stomach was uncomfortable. As such, Murong Yixiu did not suspect anything.
Lian Qing was left behind.
Su Xinyan ignored him.
Lian Qing didn't dare to enter the main house, nor did he dare to leave. She could only stand in the corridor where the cold wind was blowing.
Holding the cold sword hilt, Lian Qing lowered his head slightly and looked at the stone brick. He let the wind ruffle his hair, let the wind blow through his eyelashes into his eyes, but no one knew what he was thinking.
None of the servant girls who came in and out had the intention of paying attention to him. In fact, their thoughts were very simple-if Miss didn't mention it, they would pretend not to know. This person, naturally, would pretend not to see.
After entering the palace and returning to the Minister's Mansion, even the servant guarding the door could see how bad Su Lihua's mood was. It could almost be described as a face as black as ink.
Many servants discussed that their master had entered the palace. Even if something had happened, he would have such a bad expression. However, after discussing for a long time, they could not come up with a reason.
Su Lihua suppressed his anger and walked back to his study while recalling what the Emperor had said to him today.
"This time, the general that I, Dong Chen, will lead the army to attack Mobei is Minister Su, your son, Wei Hong.”
"I never thought that Minister Su, a civil official, would be able to raise a brave and good general!”# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:05820186: 27PM #Cancel Review All: wdd201302 Time:09 16 2019 1:34PM
