Chapter 466
The next morning, it was still dark and Pei An got up to prepare for his shift.
The maids outside came in with candlelight. Pei An turned around and looked at Song Guanzhou who was still sleeping facing the wall. He swallowed his frustration, got up and put on his clothes.
As the sun rose higher, Qin Qingdong yawned and swaggered in. Seeing Song Guanzhou, who had gotten up and was practicing calligraphy, he couldn't help but praise him, "Your calligraphy doesn't look like a dog paddling recently. At least I can recognize what you wrote."
Song Guanzhou didn't even raise his head. "Going out today?"
Qin Qingdong's legs went limp. "Not today. I have to go back at noon. My aunt is leaving the house tomorrow, and I have to eat with her."
"The fourth lady is also preparing to leave?"
Qin Qingdong leaned back in the rocking chair and said, "Yes, she is finally gone. I was so worried during her stay."
"So what about your marriage?"
Qin Qingdong pretended to be dead, "It's over."
Song Guanzhou thought about the ending of Wen Linghuan in the original novel, which seemed to be not written much. She sighed and said, "The fourth lady is open and honest. It's a good match for you to be her wife."
"Open and honest?" Qin Qingdong laughed. "You're talking about a man. I don't want to marry a man. Otherwise, how can I live in the future?"
Marriage is something that can never be forced.
Song Guanzhou didn't say much, he just called Rendong over and whispered a few words to him. After a while, Rendong brought a small wooden box to him and gave it to Song Guanzhou to look through.
Song Guanzhou took a look and pondered for a moment.
"Go find Linshan and ask him if he has any small items that can help him survive while traveling in the martial arts world, such as darts, short knives, daggers, etc. Ask him to give me one first, and I will ask a blacksmith to make it and return it to him later."
Honeysuckle was stunned. "This...will it be a bit of a collision?"
Song Guanzhou shook his head, "No, just go."
Qin Qingdong was completely confused. "Guan Zhou, what do you need all this for? What's so good about Linshan? You might as well come find me."
Song Guanzhou ignored him and asked Rendong to do it quickly.
"What's Miss Wen San's personality like?" Song Guanzhou suddenly asked this. Qin Qingdong perked up, "I thought you didn't mind."
"Of course I don't mind. I'm just curious. The fourth girl is out there, so what about the third girl?"
Qin Qingdong narrowed his eyes, thought for a moment, and said slowly, "You and Miss Xu look alike, but your personalities are completely different. The third lady is very similar to Miss Xu, smart and gentle, and is good at the three obediences and four virtues, playing the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. She is well-versed in both inner and outer aspects, and is a rare lady from a noble family."
Song Guanzhou understood.
"I see." She sighed and looked up at the awning held up by the maids. "Qin Er, Pei Si should marry a lady like that, who is gentle and obedient, and does not fight or compete. Let him take concubines and maids, and his life will be very happy."
Yo!
Qin Qingdong raised his eyebrows and looked at Song Guanzhou who was fanning himself lazily with a palm-leaf fan. "Did they quarrel yesterday?"
"Not really."
With the palm-leaf fan covering his face, Song Guanzhou said weakly, "Qin Er, when life is good, you should enjoy it to the fullest, and don't let the golden cup face the moon in vain. Pei Si and I are probably a mistake in the end."
"Ouch!"
Qin Qingdong sat up and exclaimed, "Is this you, Song Guanzhou? You care so much about Pei Si, why are you saying such discouraging words today?"
Song Guanzhou's muffled voice came from under the palm-leaf fan, "Since you are in love with me and I am interested, why should you accept my family's proposal? I'm afraid it will cost me my life in the end."
"How can it be so serious?"
Qin Qingdong was not sure how much Song Guanzhou knew, but after hearing these words, he also understood that she had a near-death experience in Longen Temple and was still in fear. "Silang only has you in his heart, and he will definitely make the decision for you."
whispering sound!
Song Guanzhou sneered under his palm-leaf fan and said no more about the matter. He thought for a moment before standing up. "Duan Lianyuan cannot be kept. Qin Er, I will tell you this one last time."
Qin Qingdong never expected that she would suddenly talk about the Eastern Palace. "The Eastern Palace has complicated affairs. Duan Liangyuan was not afraid, but the prince looked at her differently."
"In that case, I won't say any more."
She lay down again, covering her face with a palm-leaf fan, and whispered, "I miss my brother a little." There was a sense of grievance in her words. She used to feel that Song Xinglu had never met her when she woke up, and there was not much affection between them.
But when it came to the moment of life and death, she thought that her brother would not ignore her life.
She had a brother, so she could retire and not be bullied for no reason. She had never said this to Pei An, but she said it casually to Qin Qingdong, who was insignificant but still treated her sincerely.
Qin Qingdong was stunned for a moment, then comforted him, "I heard that Silang has never given up looking for Brother Xinglu, but he likes to wander around by nature, and Dalong's territory is not small, so it will take a while for us to find him. Don't worry."
Song Guanzhou's face was bitter, but Qin Qingdong couldn't see it clearly because of the palm-leaf fan.
"Where did he go? Why didn't he send a message to my sister..."
The whispers contained too much bitterness, and Qin Qingdong felt uncomfortable. He opened his mouth to speak, but didn't know how to explain. After a long time, he said seriously, "Guanzhou, Silang is protecting you. Jin Fuyun and I have also broken up. I will send you two maids another day. They have been trained in boxing and kicking since childhood. They will stay by your side. Don't worry about anything."
"Maid? Where did you get this?"
This is rare.
Qin Qingdong sighed, "My eldest brother has some capable people under him. It's not easy to find a place next to a maid like this, but he has his own way."
Song Guanzhou took off the palm-leaf fan and looked at Qin Qingdong intently.
Qin Qingdong could not bear her interrogation, so he had to bow and kowtow, "It was Silang who asked my eldest brother for help. Uncle Hai doesn't accept disciples now, and he has never had any female disciples. Linshan can protect you outside, but it's still inconvenient inside the courtyard."
"It's him--"
Song Guanzhou was a little surprised. She didn't expect that the protection that Pei An mentioned was actually arranged.
"Pei Si came forward, and my eldest brother naturally agreed. However, the two girls are still in the mountains, so it will take some time for them to come over."
"I don't know. Shiro never said that."
Qin Qingdong opened his fan with a snap. "He has always been like this. He won't tell you unless you come close to him or take a good look at him. But seeing how aggrieved you look, I'm afraid you blame him for the incident at Long'en Temple."
Song Guanzhou turned his head away and didn't say anything.
Qin Qingdong guessed what was going on and laughed heartily, "That day, Silang rode his horse recklessly and climbed up the mountain in the heavy rain. He almost went crazy before he found you. Especially when he saw He Hua covered in blood, Zhuang Gu sprained her ankle, and the two servants said that your life was in danger, Ji Zhang's eyes were red."
"How did he know that I was in trouble at Long En Temple?"
Qin Qingdong sighed. The woman in front of him was really hard to appease. He did not let go of any important juncture. His original intention was to use Pei Si to make her nervous in exchange for her soft heart and trust. However, he did not expect that she would not fall for it and specifically asked about the places that he had suspected for a long time.
"Guan Zhou, do you believe what I say?"
