The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 3 Qin Ying
Bringing Long'er to the hall, as soon as they entered the door, Wang waved to Xuan Shijing: "Jing'er just came, come and say hello to Aunt Qin."

It turned out to be Mrs. Qin, who brought Qin Ying and a large cart of New Year's goods to the Hou Mansion.

"Nephew Xuan Shijing, please greet Aunt Qin." Xuan Shijing bowed his hands to Mrs. Qin, although he was small, he did this respectfully.He turned around and cupped his hands to Qin Ying: "Brother Huaiyu."

Qin Ying bowed his hand and returned the gift.

Seeing that the two sides got along well, Mrs. Qin's face was full of joy, and she boasted: "My sister is also a lucky person. Jing'er is so young, but she has an extraordinary bearing. She will definitely achieve extraordinary things in the future."

Wang replied with a smile: "It's Jing'er who strives for success. Look at Mr. Ling, at such a young age, he still has the majesty of Duke Yi."

"Haha." Listening to Mrs. Wang's praise of her son, Mrs. Qin couldn't help but smile from ear to ear: "It's true, two or three years have passed, and our sisters' families came from Erxianzhuang and Wagangzhai back then. It's been a long time since I can have a good chat, so let the juniors go down to play, and our sisters have a good chat today."

Speaking of those years, Wang also sighed for a while, lamenting the passing of time, and said with a smile: "It's so good." Turning his head to look at Xuan Shijing: "Jing'er, take your brother Qin Ying around the mansion, Mother wants to talk to your aunt."

"Yes." Xuan Shijing replied, and then pulled Qin Yu out of the hall.

At this time, Qin Ying was only eight years old. Three-year-old Xuan Shijing took nine-year-old Qin Yu to the back garden of the Hou Mansion, and told Long'er beside him: "Long'er, I want to spend time with Brother Qin Yu in the back garden." Play here for a while, go and help me prepare some food."

Long'er blessed her body: "Yes, Young Master."

Seeing Xuan Shijing who was five years younger than herself, Qin Ying couldn't help feeling envious: "Brother Shijing, I really envy you for being so majestic in the Hou's mansion."

Xuan Shijing couldn't help laughing secretly, her three-year-old body contained a soul close to 30 years old, no matter how much she pretended to be a child, she couldn't pretend her temperament, she smiled: "Actually, I also envy brother Huaiyu very much. Woolen cloth."

Although Qin Ying was only eight years old, she already had her own characters, so Xuan Shijing called Qin Ying Brother Huaiyu.

"Brother Shijing, why do you envy me? I am in the Qin Mansion. Although I carry the name of Duke Xiao, I am not as comfortable as you are in the Hou Mansion. No matter what I do, a lot of people always come to tell me this. Can't do it, that can't be done." Qin Ying said: "Brother, at a young age, you are already the Marquis of Xuanwei County, and if you go up one step, you will be the Marquis of the State."

"Brother Huaiyu, stop laughing at my younger brother. As we all know, my title of Lord Marquis is completely concealed by my father."

Only then did Qin Ying realize that she had touched Xuan Shijing's heartbreak. A three-year-old child lost his father before he was born.

"I'm sorry, brother Shijing."

Xuan Shijing waved his little hand: "Brother Huaiyu, don't mind, Shijing is very good now, the Xuanwei Marquis who was personally appointed by His Majesty, was also named by His Majesty. Compared with the children of other noble families, Shijing I feel very happy."

"Young Lord, Young Lord, the dessert is here." Long'er walked over with a tray: "Come on, Young Lord, try it. This is the jujube cake that Young Lord taught the servants to make."

"Brother Huaiyu, come and have a taste." Xuan Shijing picked up the jujube cake and stuffed it into his mouth. He mentioned this to Long'er at the beginning, but he didn't expect Long'er to really research it: "Long'er's craftsmanship is getting better and better. It's superb." Xuan Shijing praised.

"As long as the young master likes it, that's fine." Long'er covered her mouth and smiled lightly.

Qin Ying also picked up a piece of jujube cake, tasted it, and widened her eyes: "Well, it's really delicious, Brother Shijing, can I take some home for Dad to try?"

"Okay, Long'er, you go to the kitchen and make some more for Brother Huaiyu to take with you when he leaves. By the way, write down the method and bring it back to Brother Huaiyu's house. Uncle Qin suffered too much on the battlefield in his early years. Injury, blood loss is severe, eating more jujube cakes is good for his body, just put less sugar when making it."

"Yes." Long'er heard Xuan Shijing's order, turned around and went back to the kitchen.

"Brother Shijing, you know a lot." Qin Ying couldn't help admiring Xuan Shijing's boastful talk.

"They're all just reading books when they have nothing to do." Xuan Shijing said: "Brother Huaiying will be a high-ranking official in the future, and from now on, younger brother will need you to take care of him."

Qin Ying patted her chest: "Of course, I will be a great general in the future. At that time, whoever dares to bully Shijing's younger brother, I will bring thousands of troops to seek justice for you."

Although it is a child's joke, in Xuan Shijing's view, this is the purest friendship in the world. Ever since he could walk, he has been closer to Qin Ying. As for the children of the Cheng family and the children of the Yuchi family, the two When Xuan Shijing was young, the family took every precaution not to let them get close to Xuan Shijing. Without it, the children of the Cheng family and the Yuchi family all inherited their father's disposition. They were stubborn at a young age. They were born in Chang'an City. Xuan Mingde is a famous troublemaker, but Xuan Shijing is the only seedling. If something happens, how will these former Paoze brothers Jiuquan face Xuan Mingde.Therefore, when several families went to the Hou's mansion, the Duke personally took the younger generation to meet in the front hall. Xuan Shijing got along with the children of the Cheng family and the Yuchi family under the eyes of these old Dukes, but Qin Ying was different. Well, Qin Ying is naturally gentle, and her biological mother and Xuan Shijing's mother Wang are old acquaintances who met in Erxianzhuang, so they walk around more frequently in private. Only Qin Ying was left, and because of their young age, Yuchi Baolin, Cheng Chumo and others naturally had nothing to contact Xuan Shijing.

"Shijing, you are still young and it is inconvenient to go out of the house. When you grow up, my brother will take you out to play. A few days ago, I sneaked out to play with Chu Mo, Baolin and the others. Chang'an Street was very lively. It's gone." Qin Ying saw that Xuan Shijing, who was only three years old, was bored at home all day, looking bored and ruthless, so she told him about the scenery on Chang'an Avenue.

For the imperial capital of the Tang Empire, Xuan Shijing has long been fascinated by the style and appearance of Chang'an Street, but because he was young, the Wang family took care of him very strictly, and he never went out on weekdays except to visit a few princes in a carriage. Hou Fu.

"After this year, I'll be four years old. Tell my mother, maybe I can go out with Brother Huaiyu." Xuan Shijing said, yearning for it. In his previous life, he was extremely restless. Man, otherwise he would never have chosen to go out to explore. Although his mind has stabilized in this life and he doesn't want to wander around the world like in his previous life, being bored at home all day really bored him to death.

"Well, when the time comes, follow us in Chang'an City, and I guarantee that no one will dare to provoke you." Qin Ying patted her chest and said proudly to Xuan Shijing.

Xuan Shijing looked at Qin Ying with a smile: "Then the younger brother will have to rely on the older brother."

"Little Lord." Madam Qin's servant girl ran into the backyard in the distance: "Little Lord, Madam asked me to come to you and prepare to go home."

"Brother Shijing, I'm going back first. During the Chinese New Year, I will treat you well at my house." Qin Ying said.

"Definitely, Brother Huaiyu, remember to bring Long'er's jujube cake and prescription." Xuan Shijing instructed.

Qin Ying nodded, and took the maid to the kitchen to find Long'er.

Watching Qin Ying leave, Xuan Shijing slammed his lips, feeling bored again, and brought a little book boy back to the study, because apart from the study, there was really no interesting place in the Hou Mansion, even though he was three years old. Her small body has limited physical strength, but this huge Hou Mansion was wandering around day by day when Xuan Shijing could walk.

The books in the study room were originally collected by Li Shimin, and the King Qin Mansion was rebuilt into a Marquis Mansion, and Li Shimin rewarded these books together. It can be called a library. The whole study room is divided into two rooms, the inside and the outside. There are more than ten large solid wood bookshelves in the room, which are filled with books. They are divided into categories, and the types are complete. During the war at the end of the Sui Dynasty, only the gentry had such a rich collection of books. The Li family was originally a big family in Guanlong, and later Li Yuan came to the throne and became the emperor. Li Shimin's military achievements were outstanding, and he even rewarded many books collected from various places.

However, as soon as Xuan Shijing sat down, the housekeeper, Uncle Zhong, knocked on the door outside the study.

"Young Lord, Madam said, it's the end of the year, and this year, Young Lord should go to the fief village for a walk. Madam has already ordered the servants to prepare the frame, and let me invite Young Lord to come over."
