Chapter 155

The night is silent.

Outside the window, the moon is missing and sparse tung trees are hanging.

A few cold stars flickered dimly in the clouds.

Water drops were still ticking through the leaks under the eaves.

At this time, it was already midnight.

Luo Qingzhou opened the window and stood in front of it for a while to let the air flow in the room. Then he closed the window and went over to touch the forehead of the girl on Mo's bed.

His forehead was still hot.

But compared to the boiling heat before, it has finally receded a bit.

Luo Qingzhou wrapped her up in quilt and walked out of the room.

As soon as the door opened, a figure suddenly escaped from the door and hid in the corner in front.

But there is still a girlish floral fragrance left in place.

Luo Qingzhou said to the corner: "I'm going to see if the second lady is back. If she's not back yet, we have to go pick her up."

Bai Ling poked his head out from around the corner, looked at him and said, "Uncle, will the second lady be okay?"

Luo Qingzhou was silent for a moment and said, "Probably not. Just look at Xia Chan and I'll go take a look."

Bai Ling came out from the corner: "Oh. Then uncle, go quickly. If the second lady hasn't come back yet, uncle will have to inform the master."

Luo Qingzhou said no more and left quickly.

Bai Ling walked to the door of the room and looked at his retreating back. He couldn't help but sigh and murmured: "If my uncle really falls in love with the second young lady, then... ah..."

She opened the door and entered the room, walked to the bed, squatted down in front of the bed, looked at the sick girl on the bed, and whispered with a sad face: "Chanchan, if that's really the case, what should we do?"

The girl on the bed suddenly opened her eyes and turned her head to look at her.

Bai Ling immediately changed his mind: "What should you do?"

Luo Qingzhou walked quickly and arrived at Meixiang Xiaoyuan.

Just as he was about to knock on the door, Pearl suddenly opened the door and was about to come out. When she saw him, her eyes suddenly lit up and she said, "Uncle, I am preparing to inform you that the lady has returned."

Luo Qingzhou felt relieved when he heard this: "Is Second Miss okay?"

Pearl smiled and said, "Miss, you're fine. She's just a little tired. She's ready to go to bed after taking a shower."

The stone in Luo Qingzhou's heart finally fell. Just when he was about to leave, Zhu'er grabbed his arm and said, "Uncle, don't leave. Since you are here, I naturally have to go in and let the lady take a look."

Luo Qingzhou was forcibly pulled in and said, "Shouldn't Miss Zhu'er say that since she's here, she naturally wants to go in and see the lady?"

Pearl closed the courtyard door, smiled, and hummed: "Miss is taking a bath, my uncle can't look at her, just let her look at my uncle."

Luo Qingzhou stopped in the courtyard and did not dare to go in again.

Zhu'er walked into the house, knocked on the door, and said inside: "Qiu'er, my uncle is here. Please ask Miss if you want to talk to my uncle later."

Qiu'er didn't seem to ask, and said quickly: "Yes. Zhu'er, please ask me to wait for a while. The young lady will finish taking a bath soon."

Pearl responded and came out to reply.

Luo Qingzhou had no choice but to wait in the courtyard.

The snow in the flower bed has melted away, and many flowers that are not afraid of the cold have opened their petals.

But the slanting plum blossoms under the eaves have long since withered.

When Luo Qingzhou was thinking about something, the window in the study room suddenly opened, and a girl in a plain white dress, with long black hair that was still wet, appeared in the window, looked at him with a smile and said: "Brother-in-law, Come in quickly."

Luo Qingzhou took one look at her pure and lovely appearance when she came out of the bath, hesitated for a moment, and entered the room.

When walking to the door.

Qiu'er came out with water and whispered: "Uncle, the lady's hair is still wet. Please help me wipe it, otherwise the lady will get sick."

She usually does these things.

But today...

Of course she understood what her young lady was thinking, so she didn't do anything again.

Luo Qingzhou took off his shoes and entered the study.

In addition to the smell of incense in the room, there is also the scent of steamed flowers from the fresh bath, as well as the unique medicinal scent of Miss Qin's body.

Several scents were mixed together, and when he looked at the bathing girl with a pair of bare snow-white jade feet and a white skirt in front of the window, Luo Qingzhou couldn't help but feel his heart flutter, and he hesitated in his steps.

"Brother-in-law, come in..."

Qin Weimo gently closed the window, called him softly, and then dragged her snow-white dress into the back room.

The freshly washed skin is fair and delicate, and can be broken by blows.

Qiu'er came over and stuffed a long towel into Luo Qingzhou's hand, then left the room and closed the door.

The girl sat down on the chair in front of the dressing table, turned to look at him and said, "Brother-in-law, what are you doing?"

Luo Qingzhou calmed down, walked over with a towel, stood behind her, glanced at her in the bronze mirror, and began to wipe her black hair.

The girl sat there quietly, looking at him through the bronze mirror, her eyes full of gentle smiles.

Be quiet for a moment.

Luo Qingzhou felt that the atmosphere was a little too dull and asked: "Second Miss, why did you come back so late today? The eldest princess didn't embarrass you, right?"

The girl lowered her head slightly: "I'm embarrassed."

Luo Qingzhou's heart tightened, and he looked at her in the mirror and said, "What did the eldest princess ask you to do? Force you to write the following rounds?"

The girl suddenly turned her head, looked at him and said, "Brother-in-law, the eldest princess wants to practice dual cultivation with Wei Mo..."

"Double cultivation?"

Luo Qingzhou was stunned: "What do you mean?"

The girl looked at him with eyes full of eyes, and a smile appeared on her face: "Just take off your clothes, sleep together, rub your ears and temples together, and then maybe do things between husband and wife."

Luo Qingzhou: "..."

The girl stared at the expression on his face with a smile. After a moment, she suddenly covered her mouth and chuckled: "Brother-in-law, are you scared?"

Luo Qingzhou continued to wipe her hair and said, "Second Miss, are you teasing me on purpose?"

The girl turned her head, faced the mirror and smiled: "Brother-in-law, forget it if you don't believe me. Anyway, the eldest princess has taken a liking to me, and she might snatch me away by then."

Luo Qingzhou rubbed her long hair with both hands and said with a smile: "If the eldest princess wants to steal someone, there is no need to rob her."

The girl looked at him in the mirror, with a faint smile on her face: "But if I don't want to, will she snatch it from me?"

Luo Qingzhou said: "No. The eldest princess should not be able to embarrass or force a weak woman. This is not in line with her character."

The girl asked strangely: "Brother-in-law has never met the eldest princess, how can he know her personality?"

Luo Qingzhou lowered his head and wiped his hair and said: "Some people can see her character from her daily deeds. The eldest princess's thoughts are on the country and the people, and she will not waste them on these things."

The girl sighed softly: "Brother-in-law is really awesome. In fact, Wei Mo thinks so too."

Luo Qingzhou couldn't help but laugh and said: "It turns out that the second young lady is praising herself in a roundabout way."

The girl chuckled and said, "I am praising my brother-in-law. My brother-in-law knows everything about the world without going out. Not to mention this Mo City, even in the entire Great Yan Kingdom, there are few people who can compare with my brother-in-law."

Luo Qingzhou glanced at her in the mirror and said nothing.

Qin Weimo didn't speak anymore.

The room fell silent again.

Luo Qingzhou quietly helped her wipe her hair.

She looked at him quietly in the mirror.

Another moment passed.

Luo Qingzhou suddenly said: "By the way, Second Miss, after you left this morning, my father-in-law called me over and said something to me."

Qin Weimo was slightly startled, and then his heartbeat suddenly accelerated: "Daddy? Brother-in-law, what did daddy say?"

Luo Qingzhou said: "My father-in-law said that he wanted to hand over all the family's property to me, and also asked me to be the head of the Qin family. But I refused. I'm not interested in that."

Qin Weimo couldn't help but laugh and said: "Dad just wants to be lazy and wants brother-in-law to help him shoulder the responsibilities of the family. But... if it were someone else, he would definitely not refuse, after all, it is such a big industry. Brother-in-law is not an ordinary person, and he has no ambitions. Therefore, it is reasonable to refuse.”

After a pause, he said again: "Brother-in-law, is this all what dad said to you when he came to see you?"

Luo Qingzhou said: "And..."

As soon as these words came out, the girl's little hands folded on her legs tightened slightly, and she grasped the skirt underneath. She stared at him in the mirror and said with a smile: "Brother-in-law, what else is there?"

Luo Qingzhou said: "My father-in-law also said that after I finish my exam and my second brother's exam next year, I will take you to Kyoto for medical treatment. Then let me go with you."

Qin Weimo was silent for a moment after hearing this, and then said softly: "Brother-in-law, it is a lie to treat Weimo's illness. Weimo's illness... is actually incurable, otherwise it would not have been delayed until now."

Luo Qingzhou's lips moved, as if he wanted to comfort him, but he didn't know how to comfort him.

Qin Weimo whispered: "Actually, dad has been making arrangements for a long time. Many big properties in the family have changed hands. Some have been sold to others, and some have been given to the second and third uncles. Dad wants to take us with him. Leave here and go to Kyoto."

Luo Qingzhou wondered: "Why? Isn't it nice here? Here, at least you are still a big family. If you are in Kyoto..."

Qin Weimo shook his head slightly: "Weimo doesn't know either. But judging from recent events, what dad did should be right. Many families in Mocheng seem to be hostile to us. Dad is different from the leaders of other families. He Although he inherited the title and had such a big estate, he actually had no idea about these things. Interested. He just wants his family to be safe and happy, not to mention... He knows in his heart that the eldest princess has always wanted to abolish the previous title system. At the dinner last night, the eldest princess even mentioned it. "If we don't know what to do, it will be too late to retreat."

Luo Qingzhou said: "What the second lady means is that my father-in-law not only wants to get rid of these properties, but also wants to resign his title and go to Kyoto to avoid trouble?"

Qin Weimo nodded slightly: "That should be the case, but these are just Weimo's guesses."

Luo Qingzhou said: "The title system should be related to the interests of all nobles. I'm afraid it will be difficult for the eldest princess to implement it on her own, right?"

Qin Weimo whispered: "The eldest princess has made many suggestions before, but they were blocked by the nobles. At that time, although the eldest princess had a reputation, she had no power. But it is different now. The late emperor passed away, and the eldest princess Not only does the princess now have her own army, but the emperor who succeeds is also her younger brother, who obeys her words. I heard that the eldest princess started to fight. She began to prepare for these things. The prime minister, Taiwei, and several princes who opposed her at first were all demoted... Cousin Meijiao's father was also made a king at the beginning, but because of this incident, he is now demoted. He became the king of the county, was removed from the feudal state, and was imprisoned in Kyoto. He was not allowed to leave. Dad must have become afraid after seeing this, so he started to prepare to retreat. "

Luo Qingzhou was a little curious: "Second Miss, is the mother of that beautiful cousin my mother-in-law's biological sister?"

Qin Weimo shook his head and said, "No, they are cousins, and they are only distant relatives."

Luo Qingzhou nodded: "No wonder the Song family has no worries."

The two chatted for a while.

Luo Qingzhou saw that her hair had been dried and was about to leave.

Qin Weimo turned around and said, "Brother-in-law, tonight..."

"Not tonight."

Luo Qingzhou avoided her gloomy gaze and said, "Xia Chan is sick and has a high fever. Bai Ling said that no one else can go in, so he asked me to take care of her. I may have to keep vigil there."

Qin Weimo frowned slightly when he heard this: "Is Xia Chan sick?"

Then he nodded and said softly: "Brother-in-law, please go take care of her quickly. Xia Chan...she is quite pitiful and her health is not good. She often gets sick."

Luo Qingzhou looked at her and said, "Does Second Miss understand her?"

Qin Weimo was silent for a moment and shook his head: "I only know that she is very cold and I dare not get too close. Ever since I got close to her and suddenly coughed and vomited blood, she has never appeared in front of me again. Passed. She would take the initiative to avoid him whenever he met her. She seemed to be a bit...low self-esteem and withdrawn, and was unwilling to interact with anyone. Jinhe talked. I heard from Bai Ling that she once wandered the streets alone and didn't have a bite of food for several days... By the way, I also heard Doctor Sun say that she was cold. Maybe it’s because I injured my body while wandering outside and getting cold, and maybe I won’t be able to... get married and have children..."

After Luo Qingzhou listened, he stayed for a long time, put down his towel and said, "Second Miss, I'll leave first."

Qin Weimo said softly: "Well, go and stay with her more. Weimo will be fine here, brother-in-law, don't worry."

Luo Qingzhou nodded and left the room.

Qin Weimo looked at the closed door and was quiet for a long time. Fang murmured in a low voice: "Brother-in-law, I'm sorry... There are some things that Weimo can't tell you... Treat her well. Even in the future... Weimo is willing."

Luo Qingzhou left the Meixiang Garden, thinking about what Miss Qin Er said just now, his heart suddenly became extremely heavy.

I didn't expect that girl Xia Chan to be so pitiful.

No wonder she had to work hard to save money. No wonder she was so frugal. It turned out that she had been homeless and hungry.

Her current body must have been caused by the wind, rain, frost, snow and ice during that period of time outside, right?

Luo Qingzhou's heart was filled with pity, and at the same time there was an inexplicable pain in his heart.

He quickened his pace and walked towards Lingchan Moon Palace.

It doesn't matter.

He will definitely do his best to help the poor girl get out of that cold shadow.

I hope that one day, she will be able to have a bright smile on her face like Bai Ling.

I believe it must be beautiful.
