Reunion (Update 1)

The capital of Qian Kingdom is located in the north of the Central Plains. Winter is not as cold as Bei'an County, but even on days when the sun shines, there is not much warmth. read

Xing Yusheng asked Qi Jun to buy a snow-white little rabbit, put it in an exquisite bamboo cage, and take it to see Qin Yujin.

Qin Yujin went out for fun more than half a month ago, and fell ill when she came back. The imperial doctor was asked to see her, and she was told that she was fine, but she was very miserable and never left the house again.

When the maid saw Xing Yusheng coming, she quickly shouted into the room, "Miss, the prince is here!"

Qi Jun pushed the wheelchair to the door and let go. Xing Yusheng pushed it in by himself, with the little rabbit on his lap.

Qin Yujin lost weight, looked pale, and smiled reluctantly, "Cousin."

Xing Yusheng saw that Qin Yujin didn't even see the gift he brought, so he raised the bamboo cage and said, "Cousin, this is for you."

Qin Yujin took it away, put it on the table, played with it for a while, and then went to pour tea for Xing Yusheng, looking uninterested.

"Cousin, what happened that day?" Xing Yusheng asked seriously.

Qin Yujin's eyes turned red when she heard this, "I don't want to say it, it's just causing trouble."

Xing Yusheng sighed, "Cousin, if trouble has already occurred, if you try to cover it up, there will only be bigger trouble next time."

Qin Yujin was stunned and silent for a long time before she talked about what happened to her when she visited an ancient temple on the outskirts of the city that day.

She was just looking at the scenery, got separated from her servants, and met the second prince Duanmu Ao.

Xing Yusheng's face darkened as soon as he heard Duanmu Ao's name. Because Su Yuanzhou's family was wiped out and only Su Liang was left, Xing Yusheng knew that Duanmu Ao was not a kind person.

Sure enough, Qin Yujin said that Duanmu Ao stopped her, made some moves, and said that he had admired her for a long time and wanted to make her his concubine.

Xing Yusheng looked angry, "Damn it! What did he do to you?"

Qin Yujin shook his head, "No. A young master came across and saved me."

Xing Yusheng was stunned, "Who?" He must not be an ordinary person to take someone away from Duanmu Ao.

"I don't know him, but I met him once before, with General Nian. His surname is Lin and his given name is Bojun." Qin Yujin said.

Xing Yusheng remembered, he knew this name, the martial arts champion before Nian Jincheng.

Although the Lin family was born as a commoner, their father and son had three top prizes. Lin Bojun's father, Lin Shuzhi, was a famous scholar in the Qian Kingdom and was now the dean of Qianshan Academy in Pingbeicheng.

Then I remembered that Ningjing took part in the provincial examination in Pingbeicheng.

The results of the rural examination have not yet reached the capital, and he has sent Qi Yan to find out the news.

Qin Yujin said that Lin Bojun came to the rescue and beat the second prince without knowing his identity...

"I told my father as soon as I came back. He told me not to go out recently and forget about this incident. I really don't know what to do." Qin Yujin said with red eyes, "Actually, I'm fine, I'm just worried about Mr. Lin. Revenge from the Second Prince."

Xing Yusheng looked solemn.

The Qin family is now walking on thin ice due to its in-law relationship with the Beijing Prince's Palace, and it would not be a wise move to offend the second prince.

Duanmu Ao has a romantic nature, and his anger will be repaid.

Fortunately, Qin Yujin was fine.

But Lin Bojun, who acted righteously, was afraid that he would be in big trouble.

"Cousin, don't think too much. I'll discuss it with my uncle and send someone to inquire about the current situation of the Lin brothers." Xing Yusheng said.

Qin Yujin nodded repeatedly, "Okay! Then I'll wait for news about my cousin!"

Before Xing Yusheng could reach the door, he heard Qi Yan's voice, "Master, I've heard about it! Mr. Ning's High School Jieyuan!"

"Mr. Ning? Is he the friend my cousin met in Bei'an County?" Qin Yujin asked.

Xing Yusheng nodded, "He is a descendant of the Xunyang Ning family and Su Liang's adopted brother."

Although Qi Yan brought back the news that Ning Jing and Su Liang had a fake marriage and became sworn brothers and sisters, he thought that Xing Yusheng could pursue Su Liang.

But Xing Yusheng admired Su Liang, but felt that she was not worthy of a confident and strong girl like her, so she didn't think twice about it.

At this moment, Xing Yusheng was not surprised to learn that Ning Jingzhong knew Yuan, she was just happy for him.

In this way, after the New Year, Ning Jing and Su Liangding came to the capital.

…

Xing Yusheng found his uncle Qin Kang and learned that he had already met Lin Bojun in private. First, he thanked him, and second, he reminded them to be careful. He also suggested that Lin Bojun invite himself to Bei'an County to assist Nian Jincheng and avoid the limelight.

In addition, the Qin family is also powerless for the time being.

Lin Bojun thanked Qin Kang for his kindness, but had no plans to transfer and leave the capital.

"He said he originally wanted to go north with Nian Jincheng, but now he can't go, and he can't worry about his big brother." Qin Kang sighed.

Xing Yusheng frowned, "After all, the Lin brothers are famous young talents in the capital, and the second prince does not dare to do anything to them blatantly. But I am worried that the second prince may send someone to take revenge on their family."

Qin Kang nodded, "I have thought of this too. Bo Jun said that their brothers had all applied for leave from the official. As soon as they were allowed to leave, they returned to Pingbeicheng together to pick up their father and sister to live with them in the capital. They left a few days ago ”

"That's good." Xing Yusheng breathed a sigh of relief, "I hope they have a safe journey."

Qin Kang had been busy with official matters for the past two months and was rarely at home, so he didn't bother to tell Qin Yujin.

Knowing that she was still worried, he asked Xing Yusheng to tell her that nothing happened for the time being. If the Lin family is in trouble next, the Qin family will not sit idly by and ignore it.

"There are rumors in the court that the fourth prince has found out the mastermind behind the iron ore smuggling." Qin Kang looked solemn, "Some say it is from King Nanming, and some say it is your father."

Xing Yusheng smiled bitterly, "It's hard to say whether my father was involved. Anyway, if something happens in Beijing Prince's Mansion, my grandfather and uncle must not care about me anymore."

Qin Kang frowned, "What are you talking about? You have Qin blood in your veins, this is an indisputable fact. Your mother married your father because the late emperor granted the marriage, not because the Qin family wanted to marry the Xing family. Even if the worst happens, the Qin family still has a gold medal for you to avoid death, don't say discouraging words!"

Xing Yusheng felt warm in his heart, but also very uneasy. If the Xing family was really exterminated, he could get the protection of the Qin family, but what about his grandmother...

...

Qin Yujin was relieved a little when he learned that the Lin brothers had left Beijing to pick up their families, but soon he was worried that the second prince might send someone to assassinate them on the road.

"I will send Qi Yan to lead people to chase them, and then escort them back to Beijing." Xing Yusheng said.

Qin Yujin finally showed a sincere smile, "Cousin is the best!"

...

Pingbei City

Lin Shuzhi wanted to wait until his son sent someone to pick him up before leaving the academy, but the new dean appointed by the government was eager to take his place.

Lin Shuzhi did not make any unnecessary resistance. After saying goodbye to the teachers and students in the academy, he took Lin Xueqing and Su Liang back to the city.

The next few days were calm and nothing happened.

Su Liang practiced martial arts, read books, instructed Lin Xueqing to exercise, and practiced Tai Chi with Lin Shuzhi every day.

The three of them lived a comfortable and peaceful life.

When Su Liang got up early that morning, he calculated the days. It had been ten days since Ning Jing left. If nothing unexpected happened, he should be back.

Su Liang cooked Ning Jing's lunch and dinner, but he didn't see him until nightfall.

Su Liang was not worried that something would happen to him. What could happen to a person who could kill Yan Sui?

But after another three days, Ning Jing was still not seen, and Su Liang felt something was wrong.

"Sister Su, you are worried about Brother Ning!" Lin Xueqing said seriously.

Su Liang nodded, "Yes, according to his strength, he should be back in ten days. Even if he is delayed, it will be at most eleven or twelve days."

Lin Xueqing wanted to say that Su Liang had Ning Jing in his heart, but she admitted it so frankly, and it was clear that she was concerned about her good brother...

But Lin Xueqing was also worried, "What if Senior Brother Ning really had an accident?"

Su Liang thought for a while and said, "Wait for two more days. If I still don't see him, I will go to Xunyang City to find him."

Who knew that Ning Jing came back that night.

But not alone.

There were also Lin Shuzhi's two sons, Lin Boyan and Lin Bojun.

"Big brother! Second brother!" Lin Xueqing was overjoyed and ran over quickly, holding the two brothers, and her eyes were red, "You are back!"

After Lin Shuzhi was surprised, he found that his two sons were a little embarrassed and there was blood on their bodies, and his heart tightened!

Ning Jing had walked to Su Liang's side.

"Someone was chasing them, and you happened to meet them?" Su Liang asked. The Lin brothers obviously encountered trouble on the way.

Ning Jing nodded, "Yes."

In fact, Ning Jing first met a group of people who were chasing the Lin brothers, but at that time he only saw that the leader had black mist between his eyebrows, so he secretly followed them and met the Lin brothers later.

Otherwise, if Ning Jing ran into the Lin brothers directly, the other party knew him, but he didn't know them at all, which would arouse suspicion.

The reason why they were delayed on the road for several days was that Lin Boyan was sick.

The four members of the Lin family were very excited to reunite.

But Ning Jing didn't mention Su Liang on the way, and they missed the letter that Lin Shuzhi sent to the capital, so they didn't know who the strange girl in the house was.

Seeing Lin Boyan looking at Su Liang, Ning Jing opened his mouth and said one word, "Hungry."

Su Liang nodded, "I'll make you supper, you light the fire." Don't disturb the family reunion.

After the two of them left the house, Lin Boyan asked, "Who was that girl just now..."

"Didn't Jing'er mention it to you all the way?" Lin Shuzhi was surprised.

Lin Xueqing smiled and said, "Sister Su is Senior Brother Ning's, why would he take the initiative to introduce her to my brother?"

"Oh? That's Jing's wife who hasn't married yet?" Lin Boyan was surprised, "He has been silent all the way, I didn't expect that he actually has a confidante."

Lin Shuzhi coughed lightly, "Yes, and no."

Lin Bojun was confused, "What do you mean yes or no? Dad still likes to keep things a secret when he talks."

Lin Shuzhi glared at his second son.

Lin Xueqing giggled, "It's a long story, listen to me slowly!"

...

In the kitchen, the firelight reflected Ning Jing's elegant face, and he was talking to Su Liang about the Xunyang Ning family.

Su Liang heard about Wan Feng's heinous crimes, chopped the ribs on the chopping board with a knife, and said coldly, "If I were here, I would grind those rotten people to dust!"

"Yeah." Ning Jing nodded slightly, "I did it."

"There are two things in the world that cannot be looked at directly, one is the sun, and the other is the human heart." Su Liang recalled the words of a famous writer in his previous life, and couldn't help sighing. Ning Jing's death was really too worthless. If Gu Ling hadn't taken action to avenge him, those evil people would have occupied everything he had and lived happily.

"Let's leave the Ning family like this for now. After you finish the exam and don't become an official, you can say that you will go back to inherit the family business." Su Liang chuckled, "By then, many people will be angry to death."
