Go to the small building

Today was supposed to be the day to sort out and report to the imperial court all the news from the underlings, but Qu Liushang's hand holding the pen did not drop a single word after sitting here for a long time.A bit of ink slid down from the pen tip slowly smudged on the clean paper, and it looked particularly abrupt on the white paper.

Qu Liushang sat on the rattan chair in the study, staring blankly at the portraits hanging in the room.

In fact, without looking closely, it is easy to find that all the portraits here are painted on the same woman.Her hair is in a bun and her temples are exposed, her eyebrows and eyes are smiling, her skin is as soft and smooth as jade, her lips are not spotty but red, she wears a pair of plain earrings next to her ears, and her black hair is tied with a wooden hairpin. The delicate willow-leaf hairpins look fresh, beautiful and elegant.She is wearing a white skirt that drags the floor with plum blossoms and white water. The waist is not full, and the skirt is layered as thin as clear mist and silk gauze, giving her a noble and slender figure.

If this is not a portrait, I am afraid that the woman inside will come out with a smile.Qu Liushang looked at the painting closest to him, looked at the hazy but real picture in front of him, his eyes were covered with a layer of mist, and whispered "Miss..."

The woman standing outside the door has been quietly looking at Qu Liushang in a daze for a long time, and she also heard the three words "Miss" unconsciously flow out of her mouth.The woman outside the door trembled slightly, and unconsciously grabbed the door frame with her drooping hands.

Qu Liushang's natural sensitivity as a hidden guard made Qu Liushang immediately alert. Qu Liushang grabbed the pen in his hand and shouted, "Who's there? Come out!" The brush instantly turned into a hidden weapon, ready to shoot in that direction at any time.

"Xian'er—it's me", the body hidden behind the door gradually turned out, and the soft voice carried the trembling and a little joy of being discovered by Qu Liushang.

Duan Xiaolou, who started to roll on the bed with Xueer in his arms at the end of sleep, finally opened his sleepy eyes and slowly woke up, eh, quilt?Did Sister Fu cover it for herself?

Duan Xiaolou was secretly happy, Sister Fu still cared about her very much.Thinking of Fu Shuhua, Duan Xiaolou put Xue'er in his arms aside, got up and got out of bed.

Stand up and stretch your legs, stretch your waist, well, this sleep is so comfortable, Duan Xiaolou is like a lazy little rabbit straightening out his fur, and he is about to go out of the hole to find his sister Fu.

The room was clear at a glance, Fu Shuhua was not in the room, Duan Xiaolou ran out anxiously, twittering, "Sister Fu, Sister Fu", the maid who had been guarding the door ran out when she saw Duan Xiaolou's recklessness, Remind her kindly, "Miss Fu was invited by the Eldest Miss to Lanyuan for tea."

"Hmm——Lanyuan", Duan Xiaolou blinked her dark eyes, it turned out that Sister Su called Sister Fu away, drinking tea in Lanyuan, it should be something to eat, then go there by yourself Look for them, thinking of delicious snacks, Duan Xiaolou smiled with a mouthful of neat teeth, dazzled the girl's eyes.

"Thank you." Without asking about the specific location of Lanyuan, Duan Xiaolou left the Zhuyuan in a flash and ran forward excitedly, not turning back no matter how many people shouted from behind.

In fact, this maid was arranged by Su Xiaoqian to wait for Duan Xiaolou, so that when she wakes up, someone will inform her that it is appropriate to end the conversation with Fu Shuhua, and at the same time, she can directly guide Duan Xiaolou to Lanyuan.

But Duan Xiaolou, a little rabbit who loves to jump, disobeyed and got out of the hole by himself, so when Duan Xiaolou looked at the stone mountain and flowing spring that passed by for the third time, he was completely dumbfounded.

The master taught himself the Qimen Dunjia, and also taught the Bagua Yijing. There are clearly no traces of formations and other blindfolds in this yard, but why can't he go out? Duan Xiaolou squatted under the rockery anxiously, scratching his ears I can't figure it out.

Just when Duan Xiaolou was at a loss, a cold voice fell in Duan Xiaolou's ears, "What are you doing here?" Duan Xiaolou looked up in surprise, and it was indeed Gu Qingli.

Now I don't care how cold Gu Qingli's face is, Duan Xiaolou jumped in front of Gu Qingli as if seeing a life-saving straw, scratched his head and whispered embarrassedly,

"I seem to be lost"

be lost?Gu Qingli looked at the face of Duan Xiaolou in front of him, and his face became more and more cold. Is such a person really the eldest lady likes.

"Don't believe it, I really don't know how to get to Lanyuan. I think I have walked this road three times, but I haven't detoured yet." Duan Xiaolou was afraid that Gu Qingli would not believe it, so he raised his head immediately. The voice also confidently stated the reason for getting lost.

To Lanyuan?Gu Qingli narrowed his eyes slightly to look at Duan Xiaolou, and said in a cold voice, "Why are you going to Lanyuan?" Could it be that the eldest lady invited her, Gu Qingli pursed unnaturally lip.

If it was the eldest lady who asked her to come over, then why did someone just tell me that the eldest lady had something to discuss with me?After returning to her room to rest, the eldest lady sent herself out to do some errands, and now she was called over as soon as she came back, but here she ran into Duan Xiaolou who was also going to Lanyuan, Gu Qingli secretly thought about Su Xiaoqian's intentions.

"Hmm - Sister Fu was invited by Sister Su to drink tea, I want to go to find her, can you take me there", Duan Xiaolou looked embarrassed again at this time, and told Gu Qingli with an awkward expression, She didn't want to let others know that she wanted to eat dim sum.

What did the young miss ask Fu Shuhua for? Could it be that she wanted to show off her feelings for Duan Xiaolou to Fu Shuhua? Thinking of this, Gu Qingli really couldn't stand up.

This afternoon, before Gu Qingli went out, she carefully tested Su Xiaoqian, "Miss seems to be taking extra care of Duan Xiaolou."

"Of course, Xiaolou is a guest, and even more Qingli's lifesaver." Su Xiaoqian seemed to have completely failed to comprehend Gu Qingli's deep meaning, and only flipped the pages of the book to reply.

"Qingli wanted to ask Miss how she feels about Duan Xiaolou." Gu Qingli decided to go all out, just ask, it's better than holding back a depression in his heart.

"Well...Xiaolou is a very good person. He has a pure character, a gentle temper, and excellent kung fu. The most important thing is that he loves his wife very much. I like it very much." Su Xiao smiled as gently as ever It was touching, but Gu Qingli was not calm anymore, his heart sank, sure enough, the eldest lady had thoughts about Duan Xiaolou.

"But Duan Xiaolou already has a wife, and the young lady treats her—" Gu Qingli felt that even if he didn't succeed, he should admonish Su Xiaoqian anyway.

"So what?" Su Xiaoqian turned a deaf ear to Gu Qingli's worries, "Qingli, you talk too much today", Su Xiaoqian's brows and eyes swept across lightly, which made Gu Qingli's heart skip a beat.

Since she was a child, there was nothing that the eldest lady could not get, and now inviting Fu Shuhua to Lanyuan is definitely not as simple as drinking tea.Gu Qingli was in a hurry, pulled away and walked towards Lanyuan.

"Hey—cold man, you haven't told me how to get to Lanyuan?" Duan Xiaolou became upset, and blocked Gu Qingli with his whole body to prevent her from passing.

At this time, Gu Qingli couldn't care less about other things, he wanted to pass through as soon as he took a step, but Duan Xiaolou stood in front of him and put his hand on Gu Qingli's shoulder.

Gu Qingli's anger welled up in his heart, and he said in a cold voice, "Get out of the way, or don't blame me for being rude",

"I won't", Duan Xiaolou also felt stubborn for a while, didn't he just ask you to take me to Lanyuan, it's worth getting angry.

Gu Qingli swung his elbow and wanted to shake Duan Xiaolou's hand that was sticking to his body. The force was strong and urgent, which shocked the unsuspecting Duan Xiaolou, okay, you are serious.

Then I'll accompany you too, Duan Xiaolou, who is worried that he hasn't exercised much recently, is now smiling and unfolding his posture to challenge Gu Qingli with a frosty face.

"What are you doing here? Who allowed you to come here!" Qu Liushang looked at the weak Zhuo Qinglian in front of him, his eyes almost burst into flames, and the brush holder in his hand creaked.

"Come here, drag the person who is in charge of the side building today down to me for [-] sticks." The violence in Qu Liushang's tone made people shudder.

"Shang'er don't want it." Zhuo Qinglian hurriedly wanted to intercede for others, but what he got in return was Qu Liushang's more severe punishment, "add another ten sticks".

"Xianer--"

"Ten more sticks, I will add ten sticks once you ask for it." Qu Liushang looked at Zhuo Qinglian who couldn't bear it with a cold face, and Qu Liushang's heart was filled with the pleasure of revenge.

Zhuo Qinglian knew that if she continued to intercede, she would harm that person, so she could only keep silent.This time, Qu Liushang who was waiting for Zhuo Qinglian to beg him was angered, but Qu Liushang laughed back with anger.

Qu Liushang stepped forward and pinched Zhuo Qinglian's smooth chin with a playful smile, "Why, you Zhuo Qinglian have always been the most kind-hearted, you gave up so soon. Or is it that the guard can't handle it?" Is it also a dispensable substitute for you who are not willing to be lonely and flirtatiously flirtatious?" With her fingers, she squeezed Zhuo Qinglian's chin slightly and lifted Zhuo Qinglian's face closer to her.

"Xiang'er—" Zhuo Qinglian begged for mercy, his plain face was full of unbearable pain.

"Hmph—who gave you the courage to call me Shang'er, call me the landlord", Qu Liuzhang narrowed his delicate eyebrows and looked at Zhuo Qinglian's struggling expression with enjoyment.

"Yes, Lou-Master." Zhuo Qinglian simply closed his eyes not to look at Qu Liushang's face that was so close at hand, maybe he would feel better that way.

Qu Liushang hated Zhuo Qinglian's weak and innocent resignation the most, and in a moment of panic, he slapped Zhuo Qinglian's face hard with his backhand, and the "slap" sound was extremely loud in the empty room.
