Chapter 7 Xue Han


Chapter 7 Xue Han

Uncle Yongqing stared blankly at the boy in scarlet clothes.

Who do you want to meet?

Six girls?

Is it... illegal to find a lost granddaughter? ?

"Uncle."

The young man put the tea cup on the table, and the soft sound brought Yong Qingbo back from his thoughts.

"I wonder why Mr. Xue wants to see his granddaughter? That girl just came from the countryside and doesn't understand the rules-"

The young man smiled and said: "My uncle may have heard that there has been no overseas work in the capital recently. My granddaughter has been missing for ten years and was suddenly found. It is my duty to see her with my own eyes so that I can feel at ease."

Upon hearing the word "careful work", Yongqing Bo's heart trembled: "Master Xue is joking."

The young man's smile faded: "Whether it's a joke or not, you'll only know if you see it."

Uncle Yongqing was furious when he heard this, but he didn't dare to shirk it anymore, and hurriedly ordered people to invite Qiu Heng to come over.

On the way to the front hall, the steward who received the advice told Qiu Heng about the young man's identity: "The person who wants to see the Sixth Girl is Xue Han, Master Xue, who is in charge of the Imperial City Department. Although this Master Xue is not as good as the weakest, he is ruthless and unpredictable in his actions. , Miss Six should be careful in her words and deeds.”

"Xue Han, the envoy of the Imperial City?"

The steward was surprised: "Miss Six, have you heard of it?"

"No, I just think the name sounds nice."

The steward's body swayed.

It's over, it's over, this girl from the countryside can't be cautious about her words and actions!

Qiu Heng silently quickened his pace.

In the later Great Xia, she often read the books recording this period. Xue Han, the envoy of the Imperial City, was a figure that could not be ignored.

This man was born as a beggar, and was adopted as an adopted son by the eunuch Xue Quan, who was known as the "hidden minister". The most famous good deed is that he went into the sea of ​​fire to save the prince and was disfigured. Another record is that he was executed for killing King Fu.

Why would such a person want to see her on the second day she came to Beijing?

Qiu Heng stepped into the hall door and saw the young man sitting opposite Yongqing Bo.

She is very young, with a clean and cold temperament, which is completely different from the appearance she sketched in the book.

Xue Han also saw the girl at the door, and her indifferent eyes changed slightly.

"I haven't met Mr. Xue yet."

Qiu Heng bent his knees and saluted: "I have met my grandfather, I have met Mr. Xue."

"Master Xue, this is the granddaughter who was just found." Uncle Yongqing smiled with him.

The young man stood up and took a step closer to Qiu Heng.

Qiu Heng saw a pair of black boots, and then a voice sounded: "Miss Qiu Liu, there is no need to be polite."

It is a voice that matches the temperament, clean and clear, making it difficult to guess the emotion.

Before Xue Han looked at the girl's appearance, the first thing he noticed was the smell.

At that time, people loved incense. They wanted to incense their clothes and bedding, and burned incense to play the piano and drink tea. Even ordinary women could not afford gold and silver jewelry, so sachets were indispensable. In this prosperous and elegant capital, there are not many people who are as immaculately dressed as the girl in front of me.

Then, his eyes fell on her face.

He had heard that the daughter of the Qiu family was outstanding in appearance, but was not surprised by her beauty. Xue Han was more interested in the similarities between the girl and the people in the Yongqing Mansion.

The image of Mr. Qiu San flashed through the young man's mind. There was a resemblance, but not much.

"Miss Qiuliu just came to Beijing yesterday?"

"Yes."

"You have been in the southern countryside before?"

"Yes."

The worried Uncle Yongqing became even more nervous when he heard this.

The Imperial City Secretary was really frightened, and the news about the Sixth Girl had just come back to their ears.

"Miss Qiu Liu——" there was a slight pause in the young man's voice, "before the uncle went to look for her, did he know that he was not his biological child?"

"I don't know."

"But I heard that Miss Qiuliu was five years old when she got lost, so she should have some memory."

Qiu Heng could feel that after saying these words, the young man's eyes became more focused, and he did not miss the slightest change in her expression.

Is the Imperial City Department so dedicated to catching details?

"My adoptive mother said that I was scared when she met me." Qiu Heng answered all questions. "Is that so?" The young man lowered his gaze and said, "Miss Qiuliu, please extend your hand."

A pair of jade-white hands stretched out, the fingers were slender and there were no calluses left by work or martial arts. There was only a small mole next to the tiger's mouth on the right hand.

The young man stared at these hands intently.

Uncle Yongqing was holding the tea cup, but he forgot to drink it and forgot to put it down.

"Miss Qiuliu...she must have been favored by her adoptive parents."

As the young man curled his lips and said these words, the tense atmosphere in the room relaxed.

Qiu Heng met the young man's eyes and said slowly: "Master Xue is right, my adoptive parents treat me as if they were their own child."

Xue Han looked at Uncle Yongqing and nodded slightly: "Excuse me. It's my duty. I hope you won't blame me."

"How could that happen? That granddaughter——"

"My uncle has found his granddaughter who has been missing for many years. It's a joy to be reunited with his family." Xue Han cupped his hand.

Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!

Uncle Yongqing felt relieved and sent the person away politely, and was invited to Qiansong Hall by the people sent by the old lady.

The old lady was restless, and when she saw Uncle Yongqing, she couldn't wait to ask: "Uncle, what are the people from the Imperial City Department doing here?"

"I heard that our family has found the sixth girl to rule out the suspicion of being a trickster." In front of his old wife, Uncle Yongqing no longer concealed his anger.

This has to be replaced by Prime Minister Fang, Commander Han and others. No matter how majestic the Imperial City Secretary is, will he come to visit like this? It's nothing more than bullying Yong Qingbo's powerlessness.

The old lady was shocked: "I just came back now, and the Imperial City Department already knows about it?"

"Maybe you took Liu Yatou to the Changchun Marquis' Mansion today, and there was another accident on the street, and it spread to the ears of the Imperial City Secretary."

"I said this girl was unlucky, but my uncle always spoke up for her."

The next day Qiu Heng came to Qiansong Hall to say hello, and the old lady said: "My uncle's house is very different from the countryside. You should concentrate on learning the rules and etiquette first, and don't come to say hello for the time being. Aunt Zhu——"

A woman came forward: "My slave is here."

"The sixth girl will be left to you."

"Yes."

"It's all gone."

On the way back, the fifth girl Qiu Ying glanced at Qiu Heng, who was some distance away in front of her, and sympathized: "Mother Zhu is the most strict. I'm afraid the sixth sister will suffer."

The fourth girl, Qiu Fu, glanced at her: "You are the only one who likes to worry. She comes from the country and doesn't learn the rules well. If we go out together in the future, it will be a disgrace to the uncle's house."

"Fourth sister is right." Qiu Ying knew what was going on and said nothing more.

Despite the distance, Qiu Heng heard the conversation.

Is Aunt Zhu very strict?

The girl glanced at the woman walking beside her with her peripheral vision and frowned slightly.

She didn't have time to waste learning the rules.

And Aunt Zhu quickly showed off her aura as a nurturing nun: "My dear ladies, you are very particular about how you move, stand, sit and lie down. Miss Six, please go up a little first and let me have a look."

There are so many things that can be said about the posture and gait, the size of the steps, and this first lesson is sure to impress the sixth girl.

Qiu Heng nodded and walked for a while.

"Six girls sit down."

"Six girls lie down."

"Six girls start."

……

Grandma Zhu was stunned and in disbelief.

Qiu Heng asked in a warm voice: "Does it meet Aunt Zhu's request?"

Aunt Zhu suppressed her shock and said solemnly: "Sixth Miss has some basic skills, but she still needs to keep improving to live up to the old lady's expectations. Let's do this. Sixth Miss will stand for an hour first to solidify her posture."


Qiu Heng's eyes felt cold.

It turns out that teaching her etiquette and rules is secondary, and giving her power is the key.
