The emperor and empress naturally couldn't stay here all the time, and after canonizing Su Qingluan, they rewarded them with a lot of gifts, and then left with the empress. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
After the emperor and empress left, the atmosphere of the banquet gradually warmed up, and the male guests toasted each other, and many people were scrutinizing and wanted to come forward to toast Su Qingluan, but they were afraid of being abrupt. Until the only son of the auxiliary general stepped forward to toast.
In the banquet hall, Mei Yihua came to Su Qingluan with a wine glass in her hand, and said with a red face, "Princess Jing'an, congratulations." β
Su Qingluan glanced at him, looking at him like this, he didn't know and thought that today was a good day for him, so happy to do it. Moreover, when did he Mei Yihua be so polite that he would call her a princess.
Su Qingluan raised his head and drank the wine in the cup, and said lightly, "What, I found out which girl it is?"
When Mei Yihua heard this, her mouth couldn't help but grin, and said, "Alas, let me tell you, you don't believe this matter, guess who that girl is?"
knew that this guy couldn't last more than three sentences, and immediately showed his original form, and because of him, she found that at least no less than ten people were ready to come.
"Oh, as far as I know, my aunt has already booked the prime minister's daughter for you, so no matter who the other party is, it is impossible for you to continue to have any results with other girls. Su Qingluan said deliberately, well, she didn't believe that he had nothing to beg her, now that he was so proud, there would be a time for him to cry.
Mei Yihua smiled proudly, "That's what I'm going to talk about, that girl is the prime minister's daughter, my fiancΓ©e, I made a mistake that day." "Well, sure enough, only such a girl can be worthy of her handsome and dashing young man!
"What makes you laugh so idiot? Su Qingyuan suddenly appeared behind Mei Yihua, startling the proud Mei Yihua.
Su Qingyu walked out from Su Qingyuan's side and stood beside her as a matter of course, where one hand could touch.
However, Mei Yihua, who came back to his senses, did not sneer back as usual, but looked at Su Qingyu behind Su Qingyuan seriously and asked, "Really, does it look like an idiot?"
This move startled Su Qingyuan, who was ready to talk back to the past, and stepped forward and reached out to his forehead, wanting to see if Mei Yihua was sick. At the end, he said seriously, "This doesn't have a fever, isn't it?"
"Go, go, you're a ghost, Young Master Ben is very good. I'm telling you, don't be too close to me in public in the future, it's not good to be careful to let Qin Xue see it. After Mei Yihua finished speaking, she deliberately straightened her clothes, and her eyes drifted to the women's seat.
Everyone felt the goosebumps on their bodies fall to the ground, Su Qingluan and Su Qingyu were okay to say, Su Qingyuan couldn't help but throw the wine glass in his hand, and spit on him, "Speak to me well, it's really unbearable." But then again, who are you talking about?" said that, he took a glass of wine from the tray in the hands of the maid who passed by, and put it to his lips and sipped it gently.
Mei Yihua threw the wine glass back and smiled proudly, "My fiancΓ©e, Prime Minister's daughter Li Qinxue"
"Poof!" Su Qingyuan didn't expect Mei Yihua's taste to be so heavy at all, and couldn't help but ask in a loud voice, "Who, that sow?
Su Qingluan was already on guard when Su Qingyuan picked up the wine glass, and picked up Dai Lian's handkerchief behind him to block it.
Dai Lian behind her looked at her beloved veil with a bitter gourd face, this was what she begged Dai He to embroider for today, and Dai He also had an identical one. I was reluctant to use it, but now it's okay, pinching the corner of the handkerchief with her thumb and index finger in disgust, Dai Lian looked at Su Qingluan resentfully.
Mei Yihua ignored the saliva and wine that was sprayed all over, and quickly covered Su Qingyuan's mouth, did this kid want to kill him, "Shhh β
broke Mei Yihua's hand that was covering his mouth, and said angrily, "You're not mistaken! When did you like this kind of fat head... A plump woman, the change in taste is too extreme, isn't it!" Seeing Mei Yihua's unhappy face, Su Qingyuan rolled his eyes and changed his words. The plump are all sorry for these two words, that is simply the plump grandmother!
Mei Yihua explained angrily, "No, we were all wrong that day, that was not Li Qinxue, it was Li Qinxue's cousin, the real Li Qinxue was the girl I took you to see before." β
"Well, what's going on, let's hear it. Su Qingyuan became interested, he followed Mei Yihua to the garden and secretly looked at a girl in the garden, with bright eyes and bright teeth, lively and hearty manners and conversations, which is the vitality that those ladies in Beijing do not have, and people can't help but focus on her. It was completely different from the stout and fat woman on the painting boat that day, it was a world of difference.
It turned out that it was what happened when the emperor assigned the two of them to go down to Jiangnan to inspect the corruption of Jiangnan officials, when they passed through Liangcheng, and Liangcheng officials feasted them in a local restaurant, and it was in that restaurant that he happened to meet Li Qinxue who fell from the carriage, of course, he didn't know who she was at that time. The instinctive reaction of a person who practices martial arts is that before his brain can react, Li Qinxue is already in his arms.
"Thank you. A shy flush lingered on the snow-white face, rippling with a bright atmosphere. just broke into Mei Yihua's eyes and fell into the heart cavity.
Before he could say a word, he saw the guards around the prefect of Liangcheng sneakily coming out of the alley leading to the back door next to the restaurant, and he followed lightly without thinking too much, and he never saw her again.
What Mei Yihua didn't say was that he thought he was a person who didn't want to do it, and he didn't think that there would be a chance to meet again, but that shy but bright smiling face often appeared in front of him, and when he knew that his mother had set a family affair for him, he couldn't tell what the sourness in his heart was.
He couldn't tell what was the reason for the drunkenness of the Drunken Immortal Pavilion, it should be because of the ignorant but fruitless young love!But everything came too fast, everything changed, she was within his reach, and was about to become his wife, for the first time, he felt so lucky.
In the end, Mei Yihua made a summary and sighed, "Everything is fate!"
Su Qingluan, who had not spoken, put down the wine glass in his hand, raised his eyebrows and asked, "May I ask, did fate tell you that your Qin Xue fiancΓ©e made a move that made you mistakenly think that her cousin was her?"
At the mention of this, Mei Yihua raised her hand and scratched the back of her head, and said embarrassedly, "Speaking of which, I don't know much about it, so don't you come to ask your cousin?"
Su Qingluan herself may not know that she is now the idol of all the women in the capital, so if Su Qingluan is willing to say a few words for him, it will definitely work better than saying a hundred words to others. And now her identity is even hotter than before, who doesn't want to have a relationship with her, even if she can say a few words, it's good.
"Huh?" Su Qingluan leaned his back against the pillar behind him, "This is to beg me? I thought that Young Master Mei got married today, so red-faced." β
Belch... Mei Yihua was a little puzzled when she offended her again, and she didn't seem to be surprised at all about Li Qinxue's matter, "Luan'er," Mei Yihua asked tentatively, "Did you already know that it wasn't Li Qinxue that I saw on the painting boat that day, but her cousin?"
Su Qingluan nodded, "Yes."
Knowing that, Mei Yihua shouted, "Then why didn't you tell me? β
Su Qingluan shrugged, "Why should I tell you," as if he was afraid that Mei Yihua would not be angry enough, "Moreover, I only found out in the Drunken Immortal Pavilion that day, who made it so coincidental, I happened to stand at the window and saw Li Qinxue and her cousin get out of the car that took away the emblem of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Li Qinxue also shouted one cousin after another, saying that the jewelry style in Jiangnan is not atmospheric enough, and asked her to choose more." β
Mei Yihua just wanted to hit the wall now, and said hatefully, "Then why didn't you tell me at that time?"
Su Qingluan spread his hands and said helplessly, "You were so heartbroken at the time, I think that your aunt ordered this family affair for you is because the other party is the Prime Minister's Mansion, so does it really matter who Li Qinxue is?"
As soon as Mei Yihua wanted to speak, he heard Su Qingluan say again, "Moreover, what kind of attitude do you have, alas~!
Mei Yihua's anger disappeared without a trace, and she said with a smiling face, "Good Luan'er, you also know that I can't speak, so ah, if I make you angry, don't take it to heart." My cousin's life's work depends on you, you must help me!"
Su Qingluan pointed with his chin at the aristocratic sons who were eyeing each other not far away, and said, "It's not impossible to ask me to help, as long as you can find a way to get those people and let me not be harassed at today's meal, I will consider it." β
Mei Yihua looked at Su Qingluan's point, and smiled arrogantly, "Okay, that's it," but in a blink of an eye, he cautiously pointed to Yuan Junyao and Fu Mingkong, who were talking to the prince, and said, "I can't do the two of them!"
Su Qingluan rolled his eyes and said disdainfully, "I know, I didn't expect you." He waved his hand like a fly to drive Mei Yihua away, "Go, go, Gong Chuli is coming." Then he admonished, "Remember, no one is allowed to come over, otherwise I will teach you that this family business will be completely yellow" Don't worry, even if I can't, isn't there still a third prince" Mei Yihua immediately strode towards the group of sons and buddies who were already preparing to come over, and dragged Su Qingyuan away by the way
"Alas, alas, what's the matter with me?" Ignoring Su Qingyuan's whining and screaming wishes to confide in Uncle Ben's disobedience, Mei Yihua persistently dragged him away.
"Princess Jing'an"
Su Qingluan turned around, and Gong Chuli stood three steps away, her smile like a lily, fresh and natural.
Su Qingluan moved over and said with a smile, "Third princess." β
Su Qingyu left automatically after coming over from Gong Chuli, he never liked to have too much contact with women other than Su Qingluan. He also sent Dai Lian to prepare with Dai He to distribute souvenirs when the guests left.
The two chatted while walking, and Gong Chuli seemed to casually mention, "The relationship between Prince Mei and the third prince seems to be very good." β
Su Qingluan glanced at her quietly, and said with a smile, "Indeed, the two of them grew up together with me, the crown prince and the ninth brother, and the two of them have similar personalities, so their natural relationship is better." β
Gong Chuli did not continue this topic, but congratulated Su Qingluan, "I haven't congratulated Princess Jing'an yet, and I should give another congratulatory gift another day." β
Su Qingluan excused himself and said, "The third princess doesn't have to be so polite. β
Unconsciously, the two came to the pavilion at the back of the garden, and Su Qingluan was feasting guests today, so the servants also prepared melon and fruit snacks in the pavilion.
The two of them sat down in the pavilion, the sun was not as heavy as it was at noon, and the wind was blowing slowly, and it was comfortable to sit in the pavilion.
"Is there something wrong with the third princess coming to Dajing this time?" asked Su Qingluan unabashedly.
Gong Chuli heard Su Qingluan's words straight to the point, chuckled, and didn't twist, "Has the eldest princess always spoken so cheerfully?"
Su Qingluan also smiled, "What, does the third princess want us to make a few more detours and be polite?"
Gong Chuli shook her head slightly, as if she was a little helpless about Su Qingluan's directness, and chuckled, "It's true that talking to smart people saves time and effort, but the eldest princess is so direct, but the words I prepared are useless." β
Su Qingluan picked out a fine tribute orange from the glass plate containing fruits on the stone table, peeled it carefully, and said, "The third princess, why don't you directly talk about how you want to cooperate with me to deal with Gong Xuelian!" After speaking, he handed half of the peeled orange to Gong Chuli.
Gong Chuli didn't expect Su Qingluan to hand her half of the orange, and subconsciously frowned, but still took it. Xu didn't think of a good rhetoric, Gong Chuli held half an orange and didn't speak.
Broke a petal of orange and put it in his mouth, with a hint of sourness in the sweet and sour taste, Su Qingluan raised his eyes and looked at the silent Gong Chuli, and said faintly, "Those who do great things, hesitate, and they can't figure it out." For example, you don't like to eat oranges at all, but you don't refuse because of your identity and mine, and for example, you obviously want to get rid of Gong Xuelian, but you don't open your mouth because of the righteousness of humanity. β
Gong Chuli was shocked, looked at Su Qingluan with some incredulity, and then smiled, "Thank you eldest princess for mentioning it, I thought it was wrong." Since she was a child, her teacher said that she was too indecisive in doing things, and even if the time and place were right, she might miss the opportunity because of her hesitation. "The eldest princess is really a man of great wisdom. β
Su Qingluan sneered, "Where am I a person with great wisdom, I don't like to eat oranges, but there is nothing I like to eat on this plate, and the oranges are relatively better in comparison, so I took the oranges, peeled them and didn't want to eat them, so I divided half of them." β
Gong Chuli didn't expect this to be the case, and she said this kind of thing so generously, she was a little stunned for a while, and then laughed along, it turned out that this eldest princess was still quite interesting.
The two laughed for a while, and finally started to talk about business, Gong Chuli spoke first, "As the eldest princess said, I came to Dongjing this time to find someone who can cooperate to deal with my eldest sister together, as long as Gong Xuelian is removed, then I will be the most likely candidate for Nan Chen to succeed to the throne." When the time comes, Nan Chen will definitely stand with Dongjing. β
Su Qingluan also said with a straight face, "Gong Xuelian, this person is obviously not so smart, but she likes to be smart very much, even if it is not because of cooperating with you, I will find a chance to get rid of her." "It's really ridiculous, I don't weigh how many pounds and taels I have, and I dare to fight Dajing's idea, if you don't except her, do you still want her to be arrogant?"
Gong Chuli frowned lightly and said, "The preliminary plan is there, but it still needs some changes, I will visit another day, and we will discuss it again at that time." β
"Well, today is indeed not a good time to talk about this matter, so let's talk about it another day!" Su Qingluan looked at the sky, they had been out for a while, and as the host of the banquet, she naturally couldn't stay outside for too long.
Getting up, the two turned back to the banquet hall, and no one could guess that it took them half an hour to decide the succession of a country.
