Chapter 104: Not worth mentioning
"I didn't expect you to be the Fourth Prince!"
Nangong Yun blinked, she really didn't expect that the famous Sword Cliff Sect Master would be the obscure and low-key Fourth Prince of the capital. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Hearing this, Chu Liuyu smiled lightly, raised his head and looked at the moon with Nangong Yun's gaze, and said in a relaxed tone: "I don't know why, although it is the second time we have met, it always feels like we have known each other for a long time!"
Nangong Yun was stunned when he heard this, the fourth prince's intuition was quite accurate, and he took away the surprise in his heart. The tone was a little witty: "I can say that the way the fourth prince accosted the girl really... Some... Is it old-fashioned?"
As soon as the words fell, Chu Liuyu was stunned for a moment, and then laughed without any blame, and turned his head to look at the girl beside him. Under the moonlight, the girl's bare eyes were dark and deep, although the scars on the little face could be faintly seen through the veil, but it did not affect the sweet smile with crooked eyebrows and eyes at all. This girl is really special. The corners of his eyebrows are slightly raised, and the corners of his mouth are also hung with a hint of curvature: "It seems that this prince needs to study more in this area in the future!
Nangong Yun nodded in agreement.
Just when the two were chatting happily. Nangong Yun inadvertently raised his eyes but saw the housekeeper Lin Nan walking from the backyard with a complicated face, followed by a man dressed as a waiter, and the two were hurrying here.
At that moment, Nangong Yun raised the corners of his eyebrows, a light quickly flashed in his eyes, and he got up to meet him.
"Grandpa Nan, why didn't you stay in the front yard?
When Lin Nan saw his little young lady here, he was slightly surprised in his heart, and glanced at Chu Liuyu behind Nangong Yun imperceptibly, and said with a wry smile on his face: "Little Miss is laughing at the old slave again, the old slave really wants to hide quietly now!"
When Nangong Yun heard this, he looked at Lin Nan's frowning brows, his expression was also full of doubts, and he asked curiously: "Why is Grandpa Nan's face so ugly? Did something happen?"
As soon as the words fell, the bitterness at the corners of Lin Nan's mouth became even worse, and he opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but as if he couldn't say it, he just sighed.
"Grandpa Nan, what happened?!" At this time, not only Nangong Yun was curious, but even Chu Liuqing, who didn't care about it, became a little more interested and focused on Lin Nan.
Seeing this, Lin Nan quickly told the two of them what had just happened.
It turned out that when Nangong Yun and Chu Liuyu were chatting here, a small incident also happened in the banquet in the front yard.
At the banquet, Nangong Lin was originally chatting and drinking with the third prince Chu Liuhao, when the attendants around the third prince suddenly came forward to report and whispered beside Chu Liuhao. Nangong Lin naturally turned around with a very good eye to greet the other princes and ministers. But he didn't want to, in less than half a pillar of incense, Nangong Lin saw the third prince Chu Liuhao frowning slightly and talking to the attendant, and then seemed to reprimand a few more words.
As the host, the old prime minister of Nangong naturally couldn't help but ask a few words. Later, I learned that when the attendant was pouring wine for the third prince just now, I found that the jade pendant given by the queen that the third prince was carrying was missing. At the moment, it is inevitable to look for it. Even Nangong Lin instructed Lin Nan to follow the attendant to the front yard and side courtyard where the third prince had just gone, and searched for it.
It's just that this search doesn't matter, Yu Pei found it, but he also found another thing in the side courtyard.
"What did you find?" Nangong Yun asked curiously.
"It's... Little Miss, don't ask!It's windy outside, you go back to the banquet earlier, and the old slave will go back first!" Lin Nan insisted on not saying what had happened. hurriedly replied to Nangong Yun, and walked to the front yard.
Behind him, Nangong Yun and Chu Liuyu glanced at each other, their eyes full of curiosity. The two of them also followed Lin Nan back to the banquet hall.
I saw that Lin Nan went straight back to Nangong Lin's side, and the attendant who had just followed behind Lin Nan stood beside Chu Liuhao. The two also quickly reported the situation to their master.
Almost at the same time, Nangong Lin and Chu Liuhao's faces changed slightly. And this scene naturally can't escape the princes, princesses and princes sitting next to them.
Chu Liurui watched Nangong Lin's face change from a smile to a blue color, and then slowly returned to normal. And Chu Liuhao's expression was a little angry and... Alarmed.
Yes, Chu Liurui actually saw a flash of panic in the eyes of his third emperor brother. I couldn't help but squint. And at this moment, his personal guard Xiao Yunzi stepped forward and whispered to him: "Master, a subordinate has just come to report that something seems to have happened in the side courtyard, which is related to the third prince!"
Hearing this, Chu Liurui's eyes flashed in vain, and it seemed that he had regained a lot of vitality in an instant, and he had become a little scrappy from the originally sullen drinking. Immediately smiled at Nangong Lin and asked.
"Old Prime Minister, I don't know what happened to make Steward Nan so panicked?"
"Eh, haha, the eldest prince said that he was laughing! Nothing happened!" Nangong Lin laughed, but there was obviously a flicker in his eyes. And Chu Liuhao, the third prince on the side, also looked unnatural.
This made Chu Liurui affirm the truth of what Xiao Yunzi said just now, it seems that what happened in the side courtyard does have something to do with the third child! In this case, he must not miss this good opportunity!
He immediately spoke: "The old prime minister's words are a little insincere! Just now, Steward Mingnan and Liuyun beside the Third Emperor Brother went out together, so there is something to hide from us!"
As soon as he said this, not only did everyone at the banquet suddenly fall silent, but even Nangong Lin's originally smiling face was suddenly a little frightened, and he hurriedly spoke: "The old minister doesn't dare! The old minister doesn't dare! The eldest prince misunderstood the old minister!"
Chu Liuhao's eyes lit up even more, and he said, "Brother Huang needs to be cautious!"
"What's the matter, Brother Huang, am I not right?" Chu Liurui raised his eyebrows and asked rhetorically: "Isn't that the case, why is Lao Cheng secretive about what happened just now?"
"It's a trivial matter, why do you need to say more!" Chu Liuhao said in a firm tone. That resolute attitude made Chu Liurui even more sure of his previous thoughts. At the moment, I am also determined to find out.
At this time, the banquet scene was more or less solemn, the two princes were-for-tat, the rest of the princes and relatives watched coldly, and the ministers looked at each other and were at a loss. Seeing this scene, Nangong Lin sighed slightly, and finally spoke.
"The two princes don't want to be angry, in fact, the old minister didn't say it just because the incident that happened in the side courtyard just now is really not worth mentioning, and he is only afraid of polluting everyone's ears when he says it!"
