Dafeng's Night Squad

299 Chapter 1: the supervisor’s gift (2)

“Bring her back and let her family look after her.” Nangong qianrou turned her head and ordered the copper Gong on the left.

“Yes.”

In the Xu family’s residence, after carrying his unconscious wife back to her room, Xu Pingzhi went to the front hall to look for his daughter. He wanted to say a few words of comfort, but Xu lingyue was still sitting at the table, her eyes empty, not moving at all.

Second uncle Xu slowly let out a breath and called the gatekeeper old Zhang over. He said in a deep voice, “”Send someone to the Academy and tell the news to Erlang. Ask him to return to the mansion as soon as possible.”

Old Zhang wiped his tears, nodded, and left.

In reality, there weren’t many servants in the residence who knew how to ride a horse. Regardless of the importance of the matter or the perspective of time, it was more appropriate for Xu Pingzhi to make a trip to Yun Lu Academy himself.

The gatekeeper old Zhang knew that the old master could not ride a horse now.

......

It would take four hours to go back and forth from the capital to Mount Qingyun. If one’s horsemanship was not good enough, the time would be even longer.

Xu niannian returned to the manor at noon. He came back alone, leaving the servant who passed the message behind.

Xu niannian pulled the reins and the horse stopped, raising its front hooves.

Before the horse’s front hooves could land, Xu niannian had already dismounted and rushed into the house with a pale face. When he crossed the threshold, he tripped and fell to the ground, injuring his forehead.

He didn’t realize it. He staggered to his feet and stumbled into the manor. In the back hall, he saw his family, his mother who was crying, and his sister who had an empty gaze and was not angry.

Of course, there was also Xu lingying, who was sitting alone on the steps outside the front hall, scribbling on the ground with a dead branch.

When the bad news came, the adults were immersed in sorrow and ignored the feelings of their children. Xu lingying didn’t dare to ask or speak. He could only sit alone on the steps, silent.

Xu Pingzhi’s eyes were red. He looked at him and said in a low voice, “”Erlang, your big brother ... No more.”

Xu Xinian’s body swayed, and his vision turned dark.

.......

It was noon, and the sky had turned gloomy. The cold wind was wreaking havoc. Immediately after, heavy snow began to fall.

This was the first snow after the spring Festival. Not long after, snow covered the houses, the treetops, and the path. The entire world was covered in a thin layer of silver.

Imperial Palace, imperial garden.

The Crown Prince had invited the second Prince, the fourth prince, the sixth Prince, and the three princesses to watch the snow at qingji Pavilion.

The charcoal fire was blazing, and there was fine wine and delicious food on the table. The Crown Prince took a sip of the wine and smiled.

“It snowed last year, and I thought I’d have to wait until the end of the year to see the snow again. I didn’t expect the snow to come again right after the spring Festival.”

The third Princess smiled. I heard from the astrologer who made the Chinese calendar that the heavier the snow before spring, the better the harvest after autumn. I don’t know if it’s true or not. Although this snow fell after the spring Festival, it’s at least before the beginning of spring.”

The Crown Prince smiled and nodded. He then turned to the fourth prince and asked, “”What’s going on with huaiqing recently? She stayed in the palace all day and sent people to find her to drink but she said that she was not feeling well.”

“I don’t know.” The fourth prince shook his head.

Huaiqing hadn’t appeared for a while. He used to meet up with his royal brothers and sisters occasionally, but he had closed the door and refused to see any guests since a while ago.

Although the fourth prince and huaiqing were born of the same mother, with huaiqing’s personality, they could not be close even if they were biological siblings.

‘Hmph, it must be because she’s too embarrassed to see anyone because of my radiance ...’ Lin an drank a mouthful of wine and thought proudly.

With the spread of Gomoku, her name of Lin an also shook the capital. Under the brilliant light of this Princess, the lowly huaiqing could only hide at home and not dare to go out.

Thinking of this, Lin ‘an happily drank a few more mouthfuls. The red clouds quietly climbed up her round face, and her charming and affectionate peach blossom eyes were slightly blurred.

The princes couldn’t help but take a few more glances. Having a beautiful and talented sister was a very pleasing thing to the eye.

Well, the word “talent” was still open to discussion, but she was undeniably beautiful.

In Xu Qian’s mind, other than fitting the image of the little queen of nightclubs, it was also the kind of girl in her class who was extremely beautiful but had bad grades when she was young.

She was the kind of bad student who would frown and scratch her head when she was doing math questions.

However, because she was too beautiful, she was pursued by the boys and would be hated by the other girls in the class, who would secretly call her a flirtatious woman.

On the other hand, huaiqing was a cold and aloof top student. However, because of his arrogant personality, he was not liked by the girls.Tsk, what’s the big deal.

The only difference between a cold top student and a flirtatious bad student was:The top female student could play the other girls in the class to death. The bad student could only pout angrily.

this snow is an auspicious sign. Did you know about the eight-hundred-mile emergency letter yesterday? ” The Crown Prince changed the topic.

“The matter of Zhang xingying suppressing the rebellion in Yunzhou?” The fourth prince said.

The Crown Prince nodded. the Qi party’s Minister of Works colluded with the witch God religion to cultivate their power in Yunzhou. They are despicable. Fortunately, Governor Zhang’s ability was outstanding, he saw through the plot and exterminated the rebels.”

After a pause, the Crown Prince looked towards his blood sister Lin an,”In this case, Xu Qi ‘an has made great contributions, and he is indeed worthy of the title of Changle County’s son.”

“Of course, Xu Qi ‘an is my ...”

Originally, when Lin ‘an heard the Crown Prince brother praise Xu Qi’ an, she was happy and wanted to show off. But when she heard the second half of the sentence, she was suddenly stunned.

“Brother Crown Prince ... W-what did you just say?”

The sweet smile on that charming and amorous face froze bit by bit. Her peach-shaped eyes widened slightly, but her expression was empty as she stared at the Crown Prince.
