Taishang Hualong Jue

Chapter 22 Mo Lingshang

There were footsteps outside the small courtyard, and soon there was a rhythmic knock on the door. Qin Luo took a breath of the cold air, shook his sleeve robe, and shook off the snowflakes that fell on it, and said calmly: "Come in !"

"crunch"

The courtyard door was slowly pushed open, and a delicate maid came in with her head slightly lowered, walked in with small steps, slightly bent her knees when she was two meters away from Qin Luo, and said, "Master, the Patriarch asked you to go to his study. "

"Father asked me to go to the study?" Qin Luo frowned slightly, with a look of doubt on his delicate face. Why did you go to the study early in the morning?What can I do with him?Is it because of what happened yesterday?

Qin Luo shook his head lightly. With the tacit understanding between their father and son, it was impossible for Qin Lie to talk to him because of yesterday's incident. So what exactly was it?

He shook his head helplessly, full of doubts, followed behind the maid, walked through a series of intertwined corridors, and finally stopped in front of a remote and secluded courtyard. The maid knocked on the door respectfully and said: "Patriarch, The young master is here."

"Luoer is here? Come in." Qin Lie's thick and gentle voice came from the courtyard.

"Go ahead." Nodding slightly to the maid, Qin Luo said, before gently pushing open the half-closed courtyard door and entering, looking around, the quiet small courtyard is surrounded by flowers and plants, even though it is the middle of winter, the flowers and plants are still there Competing for novelty and beauty, exuding bursts of fragrance.

The pavilion inside is made of green bamboo, without too many decorations, it looks ordinary, it is hard to imagine that this is the place where the head of the Qin family handles family affairs on a daily basis.

In the yard, there was a stone table and four stone benches placed around it. At this moment, two middle-aged men were sitting across the table, staring intently at the chess game on the stone table. Drinking tea, one of them frowned, hesitating, holding a bag in his hand, not knowing where to drop it.

Qin Luo's arrival did not attract their attention. The man who frowned was Qin Luo's father, Qin Lie. He nodded slightly, looked a few more times and then looked away.

Behind the latter, a delicate young girl stood there quietly, wearing a long aqua blue dress with a generous cloak covering her slim and charming body, and her long, smooth black hair fell down. To the slender waist that cannot be grasped, although the face is not all-powerful, but the facial features are also very delicate, and the light smile that is naturally revealed on the face gives people a gentle, peaceful and beautiful feeling, with an elegant temperament .

The girl gave Qin Luo the first feeling of being quiet, and her temperament seemed to be contagious. The moment Qin Luo saw her, Qin Luo's fluttering heart also quietly calmed down.

When the girl heard the sound of pushing the door, she raised her head lightly. Her eyes were like a clear spring, without any impurities, very clear and clean.

She tilted her head slightly, as if she was looking at Qin Luo, and nodded slightly after a while, with a smile on her face, as a greeting, but she didn't say anything, she lowered her head and looked at the chessboard quietly.

The cold wind blew, blowing her long hair around her ears, fluttering in a mess, she lightly raised her slender, white hands, brushing the green hair with her jade fingers, and stroking it behind her ears.

Qin Luo gently closed the courtyard door, raised his footsteps, and walked quietly behind Qin Lie. His body was straight, like a green pine, his hands drooped naturally, and he remained silent. His eyes swept towards the chessboard, and then he looked at the whole face. The tangled Qin Lie couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth.

The atmosphere fell into silence. Before falling, the fluttering snowflakes were dragged by the invisible airflow to other places, or melted into water vapor. On the stone table and beside the chessboard, two cups of tea were steaming and smoky.

The elegant man was smiling, his face was handsome but majestic, and he had the attitude of a superior. Although he was smiling, Qin Luo could see a touch of sadness between his brows.

He lightly tapped the stone table with his fingers, making a rhythmic sound. He looked at Qin Lie with a smile, and quietly waited for him to make a move, giving people a feeling that he was sure of winning.

Qin Lie was full of confusion and hesitation. At this moment, as if he had just noticed Qin Luo's arrival, he squinted at him, and then greeted him with a smile, "Luoer is here, and you walk silently. I thought you were shy and lonely. I ran back.

Come, come, let me introduce you, this is your Uncle Mo Xiuzhu, who has known Weifu for many years, and this is his daughter, Mo Lingshang. "

As he said that, he was about to get up, and quietly patted the stone table with the hand holding the chess piece.

"Snapped!"

There was a crackling sound, and a powerful big hand held his palm. The elegant man Mo Xiuzhu raised his head, looked at him with a smile, and said with a half-smile, "Introduce my father and daughter, don't be in a hurry, finish this game Say more."

The petty tricks were stopped, the abacus was seen through, Qin Lie stared, smiled awkwardly, sat back down, and sighed with a wry smile, "Well, I admit defeat and let you win."

"It's as if you beat me." Mo Xiuzhu chuckled, flicked his sleeves, picked up his teacup, and took a sip.

Qin Luo couldn't help laughing out loud, Qin Lie turned his head and glared fiercely, then looked at Mo Xiuzhu and said, "Old guy, can you save me some face in front of the juniors?"

Mo Xiuzhu smiled lightly and remained silent.

Qin Lie sighed dejectedly, "You are careless in making friends." He waved his hand, "Forget it, forget it, I won't argue with you, Luoer, I still haven't greeted you, Uncle Mo and the others."

"Qin Luo met Uncle Mo and Miss Mo."

Mo Xiuzhu nodded with a smile, and looked at Qin Luo carefully. Mo Lingshang showed a slight smile on his face. Naturally, from the heart, he bowed slightly, "Young Master Qin, just call me Lingshang."

The voice is ethereal, melodious, clear and full of emotion, like the crystal clear dewdrops sliding down on the tip of the grass in the morning, spotless.

"Well, not bad." Mo Xiuzhu suddenly said, Qin Luo looked suspiciously, what's not bad?He looked at Qin Lie who was smiling after hearing Mo Xiuzhu's words, and suddenly felt betrayed.

"Then it's settled?" Qin Lie smiled all over his face, and the wrinkles in the corners of his eyes seemed to have disappeared a lot. It could be seen that he was very happy, as if he had settled a worry.

Mo Xiuzhu shook his head and said with a smile, "It depends on what the young people want. We can't make decisions for them. Whether it succeeds or not depends on them."

Qin Luo's eyes gradually widened, the corners of his eyes twitched slightly, and the corners of his mouth twitched. Both of them said so. If he still didn't understand the meaning, he was really a fool. He looked at Qin Lie who was smiling and winking at him. , I was speechless for a while, old man, are you serious.

Looking at him with a pair of wonderful eyes, Qin Luo was slightly embarrassed, but still raised his head, and saw the girl Xia Fei's cheeks, her jade face was slightly red, her bright eyes were as clear and charming as a pool of autumn water, seeing his gaze, she couldn't help panicking, and quickly lowered her eyes head, heart bumping like a deer.

The atmosphere fell into a strange silence. Mo Xiuzhu and Qin Lie sipped their tea, smiled at Mo Lingshang who bowed his head, and Qin Luo who was at a loss with embarrassment and a face full of embarrassment. The smiles on their faces became more intense, like two cunning foxes.

"Oiyo." Qin Luo suddenly yelled, almost jumped up, looked at Qin Lie puzzled, why kick me so hard?

Qin Lie stared at Qin Luo with hatred for iron and steel, why did I have such a worrying and stupid son in my wise life?

"Lingshang, ask Nephew Qin Luo to take you out for a walk, I have something important to discuss with your Uncle Qin." In the end, Mo Xiuzhu couldn't stand it anymore, and said.

"Oh"
