Everything starts from Menghualu

Chapter 503 Yu Jin assists and talks with the siblings

"Sister Nihuang, why are you here too?" Xiao Jingrui asked with some surprise.
"Haha, why, Jingrui, don't you welcome me?" Nihuang said with a smile

"Sister Nihuang, what are you talking about? How could I not welcome you? I am so happy. Please come in, please come in, Sister Nihuang, please come in." Xiao Jingrui said hurriedly.

Nihuang was just joking, so naturally she followed in. When Xie Yu found out that not only the young prince had come, but also the princess had come.

He immediately wanted to get up and greet them, but then he thought better of it. Since it was called a gathering of juniors, wouldn't it spoil the fun if he went?

So he could only have someone serve him carefully while he continued to take care of his own things.

But at this time in Xuelu, the scene was completely different. Xiao Jingrui was introducing Su Zhe to Princess Nihuang.

"Sister Nihuang, this is my friend Mr. Su Zhesu. He is in poor health and cannot catch a cold, so he came with me to Jinling to recuperate." Xiao Jingrui said with a smile

After hearing this, Mei Changsu naturally bowed hurriedly, and Nihuang looked at him carefully. After a while, she suppressed her inner impulse and returned the greeting.

The other people present naturally could not notice anything unusual about Nihuang. In their opinion, this was just a subconscious action of the princess.

Only Mei Changsu knew that Nihuang must have begun to doubt her identity, although he didn't know where his disguise was wrong.

He was unexpectedly spotted when they met for the first time, but at least now was not the time to recognize each other, so he could only pretend to be confused and pretend that he didn't know her at all, and didn't show any abnormality at all.

At this moment, Nihuang was almost unable to suppress her excitement, because she was now certain that Su Zhe in front of her was her brother Lin Shu.

If Qiu Yuan had not told her before, she might not have thought about it in this way, but now, after his reminder, she could naturally find something unusual.

It was these anomalies that might have been overlooked in the past that made Nihuang confirm that Su Zhe in front of her was her brother Lin Shu whom she had been thinking about day and night.

"By the way, Sister Nihuang, I heard that you met Qiu Yuan. How was it? What did you talk about? Are you sure you can win in the duel?" Xiao Jingrui asked

"To be honest, I'm not sure about this. In Daliang, I'm afraid that only Commander Meng can suppress Qiu Yuan's strength."

"As for the others, they are all a little bit inferior to him. In my opinion, even Zhuo Dingfeng from Tianquan Villa is just like him at most." Nihuang shook her head and said seriously.

"Ah? Is he really that powerful? He is even as good as my father? This is troublesome. Sister Nihuang, what are you thinking? Do you really want to marry Qiu Yuan?" Xiao Jingrui said

"Jingrui, you've been talking a lot today. What's wrong?" Nihuang asked
"You figured it out, Sister Nihuang. Actually, it was all because of Yujin. He didn't dare to ask you, so he asked me to ask for him."

"Yujin, since everything has been discovered, then ask it yourself. Don't accuse me of being disloyal. I have tried my best." Xiao Jingrui said to Yan Yujin, who had been silent the whole time.

"Haha, Sister Nihuang, I know Qiu Yuan, so there are some things I can't ask, so I thought of asking Jing Rui to ask, but I didn't expect you to see through it so quickly." Yan Yujin said a little embarrassedly

"Yujin, you can ask me anything you want to ask directly, without going through Jingrui. I'm actually more curious now, do you have a good relationship with him?" Nihuang said with some surprise.

"Sister Nihuang, how can I describe our relationship? Actually, I can't say it's that good, but he was a bit of a loner when he was young and didn't have many friends."

"What about me at that time? Because of my father, my personality is similar to his, so after a few interactions, we became friends."

"But as we grew up, we had less contact because he became the kind of child that his father talked about, and I didn't live up to his expectations."

"So we gradually stopped contacting each other. After that, he went to the border. I thought we would no longer have any contact, but I didn't expect that he would write to me from time to time."

"Although I was a little surprised at first, I was still very happy. After all, we grew up together and I was happy that he remembered me."

"But, but later I became unhappy, because except for the beginning, in the subsequent letters, he would always ask about your news, Sister Nihuang."

"Especially in the past few years when you were in Beijing, he would send a letter back almost every season. It seemed that he had a good relationship with me, but in fact, he wanted to know about you." Yan Yujin said

"What? There is such a thing? You are so good, Yan Yujin, you didn't even tell me such an interesting thing? How many years have we known each other? You actually kept it from me all this time." Xiao Jingrui said

The atmosphere, which was originally a bit dull, became lively again because of Xiao Jingrui's words.

"Jingrui, this is someone else's private matter after all, how can I tell you casually?" Yan Yujin said

"Yujin, did he tell you when he fell in love with me? Because as far as I can remember, I have never met him." Nihuang asked.
"Sister Nihuang, I did ask him about this, but he didn't tell me. But I can actually guess it, because he only has a few chances to meet you."

"Think carefully about the banquets you attended when you were a child, and you should be able to remember them. I'm much younger than him, so I don't know much either." Yan Yujin said

"Is that so? That happened at least ten years ago. Never mind. I won't talk about it anymore. I'll ask him after the competition."

"By the way, Yujin, do you still keep the letters he gave you?" Nihuang asked directly
"Sister Nihuang, do you want to take a look? I've kept it. I've always kept it. It's at my house. When we're done, I'll have someone send it to you." Yan Yujin said hurriedly.

"Okay, thank you for your help. Don't worry, I'll ask Mu Qing to send it back to you after I'm done." Ni Huang said with a smile

After hearing this, Yan Yujin smiled but didn't say anything. At this moment, he was smiling very happily because he felt that he had helped his good friend and that his good friend might really have hope.

Mei Changsu, who had been sitting quietly at this time, looked calm on the surface, but he was very upset in his heart, so much so that his eyes changed a little. What he didn't see was that Nihuang saw all his changes, and then Nihuang became more determined that Su Zhe in front of her was her brother Lin Shu.

That’s right, Nihuang’s original intention of asking just now was just to test him, but what she didn’t expect was that she unexpectedly found out the truth in Qiu Yuan’s words.

So in fact, she was a little moved at this moment. Although Qiu Yuan's words that day were shameless, it now seemed that he did not lie about one thing, that he really liked her.

However, this makes the current situation difficult to handle. She originally wanted to test it out today. If it is true, they can recognize each other on the spot.

She believed that if the Su Zhe in front of her was really her brother Lin Shu, he would definitely recognize her, but now, she was not sure.

Because of what Yu Jin said just now, even she couldn't help but feel a little moved in her heart, and her brother Lin Shu was even more so.

Even if she made the matter clear now, he probably wouldn't recognize her, so she was very conflicted at the moment, and she didn't know how to make it go.

Nihuang's strangeness at this time was very normal in the eyes of others. After all, if you put yourself in their shoes, if you suddenly found out one day that there was someone who had liked you for many years.

He would probably be unable to react for a while, right? So they didn't make a fuss, but fortunately Nihuang reacted quickly and soon stopped worrying about it.

No matter what the result is, now I know that Brother Lin Shu is still alive, and that is enough. As for what happens next, we will talk about it later.

Seeing that she had reacted, the others naturally started talking about other things and no longer mentioned this matter. However, they all knew how important this matter was.

After lunch, the Mu siblings left the Ningguo Marquis Mansion.

On the way back, Mu Qing was always hesitant to speak, and when they returned to the mansion, it was the same. Finally, Nihuang couldn't stand it anymore.

"You've been patient all this time. If you have anything to ask, just ask." Nihuang said directly
"Sister, I knew I couldn't hide it from you. Actually, I didn't want to ask anything. I just wanted to ask your thoughts. What do you think of Qiu Yuan?" Mu Qing said with a smile.

"Hmm? Thoughts? You want to ask if I will marry him, right?" Nihuang said directly
"Well, sister, you can say that if you insist, but I actually want to advise you to be cautious. After all, after returning to Beijing, his reputation in matters of men and women is not very good."

"I admit that what Yu Jin said today is indeed very good. I really think highly of him. But you have to be careful, sister. Don't be confused for a moment. You must think it through." Mu Qing said
"Okay, okay, I know everything you said. To be honest, even if I didn't say these words today, I would still marry him." Nihuang said seriously.

"Ah? Sister, what did you say? Did I hear you correctly? You said you wanted to marry him? And you had decided long ago? When did this happen? Was it because of the last time you met?" Mu Qing asked
"Yes, it is indeed because of the last time we met, but it is not entirely because of these. It is also because it is indeed time for me to get married."

"It's not that I didn't want to get married these years. It's because you were still young and you couldn't support our family, so I didn't get married. But now you are an adult."

"It's time for you to take over the burden of our family, so I plan to marry him." Nihuang said
"Sister, you lied to me, didn't you? I am your younger brother, but I am not stupid. You still haven't forgotten Lin Shu, right? The reason you haven't married is because of him, because you still think about him."

"Don't be so quick to deny it, sister. I have actually been watching you all these years. Although I don't want you to live in the past forever."

"But I don't want you to force yourself to marry someone you don't like, so sister, no matter what the reason is, I don't agree." Mu Qing said
"You, okay, okay, there are indeed some things, but it's not as serious as you think. In fact, I am indeed a little tired and want to find someone to marry."

"Do you think I am you? I am a woman, and I will get married sooner or later. Before you were an adult, I supported you. Now that you are an adult, do you still want me to support you?"

"Do you really want me to be single and stay an old maid for the rest of my life?" Nihuang asked
"I'm not, I didn't, that's not what I meant, sister. I'm just afraid that you'll be wronged. It's been very difficult for you these years, and I don't want you to be wronged again." Mu Qing said
"Silly brother, I know, of course I know. I'm going to get married anyway. That Qiu Yuan is actually quite good. At least, she's much better than the ones His Majesty picked before."

"Think about it carefully. First of all, he is not lacking in martial arts. He is even better than me. In addition, he is also a general at the frontier and a descendant of a military family."

"Not to mention what Yu Jin said today. He has still had your sister in his heart for so many years. Tell me, can I marry him?" Ni Huang said directly
"This, sister, you don't have to say it. After hearing what you said, Qiu Yuan is really suitable for you. Although his family is just an idle earl, he is still very motivated."

"It's not a good match for our family, but it's OK. Well, since you think so, I won't persuade you. But I have to go and help you anyway."

"Don't worry about this matter. I will go there tomorrow and check it for you in advance. Okay, sister, if there is nothing else, I will leave first." Mu Qing said and got up and left.

Looking at her brother's back as he left, Nihuang nodded with some satisfaction. It was not in vain that she loved her brother so much. He was a man who knew how to be grateful.

Then she put away the smile on her face, replaced by a look of sadness and a frown.

Because deep down in her heart, she really didn't plan to get married, even though Qiu Yuan wasn't that bad and had admired her for many years.

But my thoughts will not change. I will not like anyone except Brother Lin Shu.

But the current situation forced her to marry for the safety of her brother Lin Shu and for the future of her family.

Even if she was unwilling, she still had to get married. It was impossible to say that she had no regrets, after all, she had been waiting for so many years.

Now, after finally waiting for the news that he is alive, I have to get married.

But for him, and for our own future, this is the only way. Let this relationship fly away with the years, bury it in my heart, and never show it to anyone else.

Years of military career have made Nihuang more decisive than ordinary people. Once she has made up her mind, she will never hesitate.
