There is a kind of scholar

Chapter 774 Minglan: Brother, I almost threw myself into a lake for you!
After Su Xian left the palace, he remembered that at the end of this month, which was New Year's Eve, he would marry Tang Shuwan.

By the count, there are still about 20 days left.

Before that, he wanted to see Tang Shuwan.

After some thought, Su Xian took a different route and went to Tang Mansion.

After all, the Tang family is an aristocratic family. Although the glory is gone, the location of the Tang family and the huge mansion still tell the story of the Tang family's past glory.

Su Xian's sudden arrival flattered the Tang Mansion's concierge. He immediately sent someone to notify the family head and clan elders, and then personally led the way to the core inner courtyard of the family.

This was not the first time for Su Xian to come to the Tang Mansion, but the details of the mansion still shocked him.

Since the Queen ascended the throne, there have been many suppressions on aristocratic families, but the Tang family has always been the best among the four major families. It can be seen from the pavilions and rockery gardens in the mansion that the atmosphere is still extraordinary.

Suddenly, Su Xian and his entourage passed by a courtyard. The gate was ajar. There were many willow trees planted under the courtyard wall. The sunlight was shining brightly and the birds were chirping. It was quiet and natural.

The most important thing is that Su Xian heard a familiar voice in the courtyard, saying boldly:
"...Don't look at how powerful my brother-in-law is. He can force the Liao army to retreat, but when we were in the Liao Kingdom, his life was protected by this heroine!"

"Wow, miss is so amazing!" There were bursts of exclamations from the courtyard, which made Su Xian speechless and surprised that they were the voices of a group of childish children.

Su Xian paused and looked sideways at the ajar door with a strange look on his face.

He has heard that the person who just spoke so brazenly is Tang Shujing!
The concierge's expression changed slightly. Su Xian was a distinguished guest. It was probably inappropriate for Tang Shujing to say "bad things" about Su Xian behind his back, and she was bumped into by Su Xian.

The concierge's mind was full of dark thoughts, and he turned and walked towards the courtyard gate, ready to stop.

Su Xian hurriedly waved his hand to stop the concierge, quietly walked outside the courtyard door, and looked inside. Then he stood there with a dull look on his face.

In the courtyard, Tang Shujing was facing away from the courtyard door. She was wearing the python robe and was talking loudly with her sleeves rolled up.

Opposite her, a group of little kids were sitting in a row on a small bench with two candied haws each, licking the candied haws while listening to the story, looking extremely serious.

You actually don't even let the little brats in the house go?
Tang Shujing is too "crazy"!
Su Xian was very shocked.

Suddenly, a child raised her hand and asked Tang Shujing to tell her how she "protected" Su Xian's life in the Liao Kingdom.What interesting stories happened?

Tang Shujing was so excited that she opened her mouth and blew the cowhide loudly, which frightened the little kids so much that they even forgot to lick the delicious candied haws.

Su Xian stood outside the courtyard gate and couldn't help but smile.

After she finished speaking, Su Xian immediately clapped her hands and praised repeatedly: "Well said!"

"Well said!" The little kids also clapped their hands, their cheeks were flushed, and they looked very happy.

Tang Shujing was even more happy, thinking that the person who took the lead in slapping is really nice, look at how excited the children are and how red their faces are.

Something called "satisfaction" filled her heart.

But suddenly, Tang Shujing realized something was wrong. Why did the children turn their heads and look in the same direction at the same time?That direction seems to be... behind her!
wrong!

Tang Shujing suddenly remembered that the first slap just now seemed to come from behind, and the first sentence "well said"... sounded very familiar.

Suspicious, she immediately turned her head.

Immediately, the smile on her melon-shaped face slowly stiffened, and she said with a dry smile: "Sister...brother-in-law? When did you come?"

"I've been here for a while, and what you just said was really good!" Su Xian smiled.

"Brother-in-law, please be busy first. I suddenly remembered that there is another case to be handled. Take my leave!" Tang Shujing trotted away and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Su Xian winked at Yang Zhilan. After Yang Zhilan realized it, she waved her hand and summoned a follower. After giving orders, the follower chased after Tang Shujing in the direction where Tang Shujing disappeared.

"Oh, now that a distinguished guest is here, the humble house is really full of splendor!"

At this time, the head of the Tang family came over with a hearty smile, followed by a group of clan elders.

……

The head of the Tang family and the clan elders were very enthusiastic.

Su Xian chatted with them for a long time before finding a reason to get away and leave the house.

After leaving the house, Su Xian walked on the nearby street for a while, turned around and walked into a teahouse, and went straight to the private room upstairs, where Tang Shujing was already waiting.

"I want to see your sister."

Su Xian went straight to the point without mentioning what happened just now.

This made Tang Shujing breathe a sigh of relief, but she immediately glared and shook her head and said: "No, this is the capital of God, not Yingzhou. Besides, your wedding is approaching, why bother to go to such trouble?"

Su Xian calmly sat down to drink tea and said with a smile, "You can't do it?"

"Of course I can do it!" Tang Shujing immediately retorted, and then said with a look of embarrassment: "Last time my sister agreed to see you, it was because of special circumstances. This time my sister probably won't agree."

"That's it, just go and invite her. If she wants to see me, just bring her out. If she doesn't want to see me, forget it." Su Xian said calmly.

"It's a deal!" Tang Shujing was full of confidence and raised a small slap.

"It's a deal!" Su Xian raised his hand and high-fived her.

Then they agreed on a time and place to meet.

After Tang Shujing strode away, Su Xian finished drinking tea and got up and went home without mentioning it.

……

In the blink of an eye, it was time for the next day.

In the morning, Su Xian went into the palace to meet the Queen, and exchanged greetings with the ministers. Then he went to the Internal Guard Yamen to handle some trivial matters, during which he met five other small cabinet leaders.

Finally, they were busy until noon on the location selection of the Taiwei Mansion.

After returning to the mansion and having lunch with Liu Huixiang, he recuperated, took his troops out of the city, and rushed to a quiet place dozens of miles south of the city.

This is the meeting place agreed with Tang Shuwan.

"Sir, I will take people to guard the surrounding areas." Yan Dashan suggested on his own initiative. Since the preparation of the "Longwu Army" has not yet been put on the agenda, he is still staying with Su Xian.

"it is good!"

Su Xian nodded, as long as Yang Zhilan was there, it was enough to ensure his safety.

After Yan Dashan and others dispersed around, Su Xian sat down on a big rock and said with a smile: "Counting the time, Miss Tang and the others should be arriving soon... By the way, have you taken your medicine on time?"

Yang Zhilan nodded and said: "I'm convinced."

"Just take it. When Divine Doctor Li returns to Shendu, I will ask him to take your pulse." Su Xian chatted casually.

"Yeah." Yang Zhilan didn't say much.

Before I knew it, half an hour passed.

Tang Shuwan and the others were not seen either.

Su Xian couldn't sit still, got up from the boulder, looked towards the direction of Shendu and said to himself: "Why don't you come? Don't Miss Tang...don't want to see me?"

Yang Zhilan didn't say a word, and she didn't know how to reply.

But at this moment, her ears twitched slightly, she looked up into the distance and said:

"There is the sound of wheels, here we come!"

"..."

After a while, a carriage drove up from a distance, and Tang Shujing took the stance in person. She was still wearing her python robe, which was very conspicuous.

Su Xian walked up to him, and after the car stopped, he smiled and said, "Are you still wearing this dress? Are you afraid of being recognized and exposed?"

Tang Shujing pouted and jumped out of the carriage. She originally thought that Tang Shuwan would not come to see Su Xian, but in the end... she finally replied angrily:
"Without these clothes, this time wouldn't have been so smooth."

Su Xian ignored her and opened the curtain of the carriage. Two pretty faces suddenly appeared in the carriage. Tang Shuwan sat on the inside. After looking at Su Xian, she lowered her head, showing off the shyness of a young girl.

"Uncle!"

Minglan was much more generous, with a round little face full of smiles, not harsh at all, and a sweet voice.

Tang Shuwan's pretty face blushed slightly, feeling a little embarrassed. She pinched Minglan secretly with her little hand in her long sleeves. She had just told Minglan not to call Su Xian "aunt". Could this girl have done it on purpose? Bar?

"It's been a long journey."

Su Xian smiled and helped Minglan get out of the car first.

Then there was Tang Shuwan. Tang Shuwan originally wanted Minglan to help her, but the ghost girl ran away and went to play aside.

She had no choice but to face Su Xian's handsome face full of smiles. She was extremely shy and could only hand her little hand to Su Xian and then slowly got out of the car.

After her feet landed on the ground, Su Xian still held on to her little hand. She jerked it several times, but finally died.

"Zhilan, take Tang Shujing there to play." Su Xian looked at Yang Zhilan with a smile and ordered.

"no!"

Before Yang Zhilan expressed her position, Tang Shujing was not happy at first. She wanted to insert herself between Su Xian and Tang Shuwan like last time to prevent her sister from being bullied.

In her eyes, although Su Xian is very talented, she also has a lot of evil in her belly. Even she, who is known as "the best goddess in the world", is often bullied by Su Xian.

What's more, what about my sister who has been living in the boudoir all year round?
Her sister must not be taken advantage of by Su Xian!

No, she must protect her sister.

Tang Shuwan's starry eyes turned and she looked at her sister eagerly. She also hoped that Tang Shujing could stay to avoid embarrassment.

Su Xian secretly held Tang Shuwan's snow-white and smooth hands. The sleeves of both of them were very long, which could be perfectly covered. He turned to look at Tang Shujing and said:
"I remember, don't you really want to become Zhilan's teacher? Now is a good opportunity. Seeing that there is no open space over there, Zhilan, please give her some tips."

Tang Shujing's eyes lit up immediately, and she immediately left the matter of protecting her sister to Java, and looked at Yang Zhilan expectantly, eager to try.

The idea of ​​becoming Yang Zhilan's teacher has been in her mind for a long time. She has only dreamed about it!
"Okay!" Yang Zhilan nodded, turned around and walked towards the open space in the distance.

"Wait for me, Heroine..." Tang Shujing was farting behind her.

"..."

Su Xian pursed his lips and smiled, then looked back at Tang Shuwan with a victorious expression.

Tang Shuwan sighed slightly, she couldn't count on her biological sister, and she couldn't pull her little hand back.

In fact, before setting off, she relied on a woman's intuition that Su Xian might do something to her during this trip.

But this came too fast!
As soon as he got off the carriage, Su Xian took his hand...

Suddenly, Tang Shuwan raised her head by chance, and found that Ming Lan was bouncing towards her. The little girl was very energetic, with a round face and a dangling bun on her head. She looked cute and cute.

Tang Shuwan was overjoyed. With this girl Minglan interfering, Su Xian should not be too messy.

However, after the girl Minglan came closer, she suddenly said to Su Xian:
"Uncle, you don't know that after hearing the news a few days ago that my uncle was kidnapped by the Liao Emperor and trapped in the Liao Kingdom, the lady was so grief-stricken that she almost threw herself into the lake while standing by the lake!"

"..."

Throw yourself into a lake to die... die for love?
Tang Shuwan was stunned and dumbfounded.

That day, although she was standing by the lake, she had no intention of throwing herself into the lake to die. Minglan suddenly ran up to her, thinking that she was going to throw herself into the lake, and the two masters and servants even fell down.

Later, the misunderstanding was resolved, and Tang Shuwan didn't take it seriously.

But I didn't expect that when Minglan secretly came out of the house to see Su Xian today, Ming Lan would uncover this old story and tell it in front of Su Xian...

Tang Shuwan had two subconscious thoughts.

First, tear the mouth of this girl Minglan to pieces and tell you to talk nonsense.Second, quickly explain to Su Xian that she really didn't want to throw herself into the lake to die for love.

"Wan'er, why are you so stupid?"

Before she could explain, Su Xian turned around with great seriousness and seriousness, facing her, placing his hands on her knife-like shoulders and holding them tightly.

Su Xian's voice is deep and magnetic, full of fear, pity, and love.

Moreover, he naturally changed his words and called his close friend "Wan'er". He used to call her Miss Tang.

"I……"

Tang Shuwan was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect Su Xian's reaction to be so huge.

For some reason, she panicked and felt a deep sense of guilt, as if she had really decided to commit suicide by drowning herself in a lake.

Coupled with Su Xian's deep voice, perseverance in her eyes filled with pity and love, her calm handsome face, and her big hands tightly grasping her shoulders...

All this made her heart sway, her heart beat violently, her whole body felt warm, as if she was wrapped in sunshine, and she was speechless for a moment.

"Wan'er, you are really stupid!"

Su Xian held his shoulder tightly and said excitedly in a deep voice: "I went to Northern Liao and went through a lot of hardships. I am not afraid of hardships and dangers. What is it for?"

"Isn't it just to create a stable and peaceful living environment for you? As long as the world is peaceful, the mountains have no mausoleums, and the heaven and the earth are harmonious, then I dare to marry you!"

"..."

Tang Shuwan was so moved that her heart surged.

She has long forgotten to clarify the matter of throwing herself into the lake to die for love. Su Xian's words gave her a strong sense of security, and there are also poems, which are just too suitable for her, a talented woman!

Su Xian continued thoroughly:

"Only with a stable life can we have a future, and our children can grow up healthy and strong..."

Tang Shuwan almost got into trouble after hearing this.

Kid...kid?
She immediately blushed with embarrassment and became even more beautiful.

"But what about you, Wan'er? If you don't take good care of yourself at home, you actually want to... throw yourself into a lake to die for your love! Wan'er, you know, my heart aches."

With a painful expression on his face, Su Xian gently grabbed Tang Shuwan's little hand and pressed it on his heart. That strong and powerful heartbeat made Tang Shuwan's heart beat wildly.

"I...I didn't mean it, I was wrong..." Tang Shuwan was moved and admitted her mistake directly.

"That's good, Wan'er, I want you to swear to heaven that no matter what happens in the future, you will never do anything stupid!" Su Xian was overjoyed.

Tang Shuwan felt waves of warmth rush through her heart. With Su Xian's encouragement, she swore to the sky without hesitation that no matter what happened in the future, she would never do anything stupid.

Su Xian held her shoulders with both hands, affectionately. Tang Shuwan also had a different look in her eyes, looking at Su Xian's handsome and resolute face infatuatedly.

"That's great! This puts me at ease..." Su Xian said, suddenly becoming excited, boldly wrapping his arms around Tang Shuwan's waist, and passionately embracing the beauty in his arms.

Minglan was standing by, already dumbfounded...
