038: Xiao Yike's wedding (2)
. , the fastest update of the latest chapter of the poisonous concubine of the phoenix returning to the nest!
The streets and alleys of Xudu are not much different from the appearance in her memory, if there is a difference, it is that her state of mind is different, walking on these streets when she was a child, her eyes are full of longing and curiosity, and now, only emotion and reminiscence are left.
Although there is an endless stream of people coming and going on the street, Lou Yueqing still attracts a lot of attention when she walks in the crowd like this, after all, she is the only one in the crowd who is surrounded by a veil, and even if she blocks her face, it is still difficult to hide her gorgeous temperament and elegance, as well as her innate dignity and elegance, of course, as well as the coldness and indifference exuded by her body, which makes people can't help but avoid and dare not approach her.
The people in this prosperous imperial capital, even the ordinary people who are peddlers and pawns, are a little blind, and they can naturally see that this woman's temperament and clothing are not like ordinary people, so no one dares to provoke them, so although Lou Yueqing walks in the crowded crowd, she is still unimpeded.
Because it was too eye-catching, Lou Yueqing was a little uncomfortable, and happened to pass by a restaurant called Pinchulou on the street, Lou Yueqing rushed directly into it, asked for a private room, ordered something, and now it was almost noon, and she happened to be hungry.
Pinol Lou is one of the best time-honored restaurants in Yudu, with a history of nearly 30 years, the things inside are very good, and the decoration is also very atmospheric, according to her understanding, this is the industry of the Wei family of Dingyuan Marquis.
After all the things to be ordered were delivered, Lou Yueqing looked at one of the fragrant steamed cakes and thought of Xiao Yunke.
This is Xiao Yunke's favorite pastry when she was a child, just as she loves chestnut cakes.
Looking at the dish of steamed cakes on the table and thinking about it, Lou Yueqing turned her head and instructed Mo Li: "Mo Li, you go to Princess Lanling's Mansion in person, and tell Ke'er, I'm here, let her come over!"
If I leave Huichu the day after tomorrow, I am afraid that it will take a few months to come back here, and it is time to say goodbye to her.
Mo Li bowed slightly: "Yes!"
After Mo left, Lou Yueqing sat at the table, and began to eat elegantly and slowly, her original favorite food was the food made by Mo Yu, after all, her diet was prepared for her by Mo Yu for more than ten years, but in the past two years, Mo Yu has to take care of Ling'er closely, plus she is running around, she can rarely eat the meals made by Mo Yu, and she did not come back with her this time, she is naturally very picky.
Xiao Yunke's time for less than half a pillar of incense arrived, she didn't move the crowd, she didn't even bring her maidservant, so she followed Mo Li by herself, and deliberately changed into civilian clothes.
Xiao Yunke seems to be in a much better mood, although she is still indifferent, but it is not difficult for Lou Yueqing to find that her heart is not so heavy.
While eating, Xiao Yunke was very surprised when she heard Lou Yueqing say that she was leaving, put down her chopsticks, frowned and asked, "It's so good, why do you want to leave suddenly?"
Lou Yueqing smiled faintly and said softly: "I have been away for more than three months, and during this period of time, the natural disasters in the Chu State have continued, I am not very relieved, I want to go back and see!"
Xiao Yunke listened to Lou Yueqing's serious words, raised her eyebrows, and teased with a rare smile: "Really, but how do I think, my sister misses my brother-in-law?"
Careful thinking was exposed, Lou Yueqing was a little embarrassed, coughed lightly twice, touched her nose and said in a muffled voice: "I really miss him a little!"
Xiao Yunke looked at her with a crimson face, a look of embarrassment and entanglement, and couldn't help laughing, she still rarely saw such a delicate appearance of her daughter's family on her sister's face.
This reminded her that when she was in the Chu State, she saw her sister and the regent of the Chu State staying together, she was also like this, she knew that her sister and Rong Zhi had a very good relationship, it was a match made in heaven, and they would be happy for the rest of their lives.
Xiao Yunke couldn't help but sigh, and I didn't know if it was destined, the two sisters were born in the royal family, and they should have been loved by thousands of people for a smooth life, but one had a bad fate and a bumpy love road.
She grew up in this imperial city like a greenhouse, and never suffered any grievances and pains, but no one will always be so smooth, so she is destined to love but can't, and her sister, when she was a child, first escaped death by a thread, and then lost all the lives in a foreign land, and suffered from suffering and illness over the years, so first bitter and then sweet, and got the happiness now, which is not easy to come by.
She remembered that when she was a child, the imperial grandmother once said that in this life, there is a certain number of hardships and happiness, there are gains and losses, there are sweets and bitterness, this may be their life......
Therefore, she can't blame Yang Yi for what happened back then, she can only blame herself.
Lou Yueqing saw Xiao Yunke's rare smile, but suddenly she was distracted, and hurriedly called her, but after several calls, Xiao Yunke suddenly came back to her senses, looked at Lou Yueqing and asked, "What's wrong?"
Lou Yueqing wrinkled her eyebrows and asked, "What were you thinking about just now?"
Xiao Yunke looked in a trance, pulled the corners of his mouth, shook his head and smiled faintly: "I didn't think anything ......"
She shouldn't think about him anymore, she can't think about it anymore, she has decided to discard it, she can't think about it anymore.
"......"
Xiao Yunke interrupted her words and said softly: "Sister, it's very lively outside, let's go out for a walk." ”
Lou Yueqing knew that she didn't want to say more, so she didn't ask anymore, and smiled: "Okay!"
Just in case, Lou Yueqing naturally couldn't show her face, after all, in this capital city, there are many people who have seen Princess Changle, and it is not appropriate for Xiao Yunke to walk openly on the street like this, so the two sisters simply walked on the street together with a veil.
When they were children, they shuttled through the streets together every time they went out of the palace to play, and they wanted to eat this and buy that, so unhappy, but since they were six years old, they have never walked on the street together like this.
Even without the innocence and ignorance of when they were young, the two sisters walked on this familiar street, and their moods were always different.
Just walking, I suddenly saw the street in front of me, in front of a shop with an atmospheric façade called Jinhua Pavilion, full of people, and there were many discussions, and the sound of commotion kept coming.
The two glanced at each other and walked over together.
There was a sound of arguing and scolding inside, and it was a woman's voice, very intense, the two of them pushed aside the crowd and walked in, and saw a lot of people gathered in the lobby of the store, take a closer look, this turned out to be a jewelry store, with exquisite jewelry everywhere, at this time, it seems that there are two groups of people arguing about something, and a group of people are persuading, the scene is very lively.
As soon as Lou Yueqing pushed away the crowd, she saw two gorgeously dressed women arguing, Lou Yueqing was wondering what kind of person this was, when she heard one of the women in a lake-green gorgeous dress looking at the person in front of her with an angry face, and a question with displeasure sounded: "Wen Lan, are you going to oppose me today?"
As soon as this questioning voice fell, another woman from a light blue group sneered: "What a joke, this is something I have agreed with Jinhua Pavilion a long time ago, and I have also paid the deposit, and now you are arrogant and unreasonable and insist on robbing me, and you still want to question me?
The sarcastic tone is obvious.
When the woman in green heard this, her face turned angry and angry, and she pointed at the woman in blue and said angrily, "You...... Wen Lan, you are presumptuous, you dare to question my Tang family's upbringing? Believe it or not, I tore your mouth?"
The woman called Wen Lan looked disapproving: "Do you dare?"
The woman in green choked: "You ......"
Wen Lan is the eldest daughter of the Wen family, and she is indeed a little jealous, but ......
The woman in blue said impatiently: "I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you, let your people hand over my things, Miss Ben has to go home!"
Where is the woman in blue willing to back down, and said with an arrogant and proud face: "No, I have taken a fancy to this set of things, this is what I plan to buy and bring into the palace to give to the queen mother, why, do you dare to grab things from the queen mother?"
Even if no one is watching, it is impossible for her to back down, what she wants, where is there what she can't get? What's more, now that so many people are watching, it is impossible for her to back down, otherwise her face will be embarrassed.
Even if it was to bring out the queen, Wen Lan had a firm face and a fearless face: "Don't say that you are going to give it to the queen's mother, even if you buy it for Your Majesty, then it will not work, this set of jewelry was customized by me and Jinhua Pavilion a month ago, I must bring it back today, Tang Yuying, if you are unreasonable, don't blame me for being unkind!"
"Why don't you want to be polite, don't forget, I'm more ...... here than you are right now."
Lou Yueqing can hear it, these two girls, one is Wen Lan, the daughter of the Wen family, and the other is Tang Yuying, the daughter of the Tang family, and then, Wen Lan customized a set of jewelry to pick it up today, but unfortunately this set of jewelry was looked at by Tang Yuying and insisted on grabbing it, so the two argued, and each had the confidence to refuse to back down, which attracted many onlookers.
But...... Don't they think it's humiliating?
She glanced at Xiao Yunke, and sure enough, although Xiao Yunke's face was blocked, the two pairs of eyes exposed outside were already filled with frost, and she was obviously displeased.
A small county lord of the Huaiyang Marquis Mansion, the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and both of them are the prince's mansion, and they are all relatives of the emperor, but they are arguing here over a set of jewelry, which has attracted so many people to watch, not to mention that their own family's face has been thrown in, and the royal family can't hang up their face.
Seeing that the two were arguing, Tang Yuying was annoyed and was about to raise her hand to hit Wen Lan, Lou Yueqing naturally couldn't stand it, just when Tang Yuying's hand was about to hit Wen Lan's face, and Wen Lan was about to reach out to block it, a silver hairpin flashed at a speed that was indistinguishable to the naked eye, just crossed Tang Yuying's wrist, and stabbed straight into the pillar on that side.
"Ah!" A scream of pain, Tang Yuying hurriedly covered her hands, her face was hideous and painful.
Her wrist happened to be rubbed by a silver hairpin, although it had not been scratched with blood, but it was scratched and bleeding.
When this scene came out, the people inside and the onlookers were shocked, a girl behind Tang Yuying immediately stepped forward to help her, and the others looked at the person who was looking for a shot, just in time to see Lou Yueqing slowly withdraw her hand and brush her cuffs.
The people inside, including Wen Lan, all opened their mouths and looked at her in shock, while the onlookers behind her also took a step back, as if they were afraid of being affected.
Who doesn't know that this Tang Yuying is the eldest daughter of the Tang family, the niece of the queen's mother, who has always been arrogant and unreasonable.
The woman dared to hurt her, fearing that there would be no good fruit to eat.
Xiao Yunke also turned his head to look at her, frowning, his eyes couldn't hide his surprise, he didn't expect her to make a move.
Tang Yuying covered her wrist and was helped up, looked over, her face was angry, her eyes were full of cruelty, she looked at Lou Yueqing and gritted her teeth and said, "You slut dare to hurt me...... Come on, give her to me ten thousand pieces!"
As soon as the voice came out, four dark guards dressed in gray and holding long swords immediately flashed, and as soon as they came out, they pounced on Lou Yueqing.
Lou Yueqing raised her eyebrows, and was about to make a move, Xiao Yunke had already taken a step ahead of her, only to see that she immediately took out a golden whip from her cuff, raised her hand, and whipped away the secret guard who was about to slash at Lou Yueqing.
Just when they saw the secret guard appear, the onlookers had already retreated, and when this scene came out, exclamations rang out again and again.
And Tang Yuying, seeing that her subordinates were whipped away, and the other three were afraid to step forward, and couldn't help but feel annoyed.
Holding his hands and taking two steps forward, he looked at Xiao Yunke and said angrily: "Where did you two come from, you two sluts, you dare to meddle in your affairs and don't want to live...... Ahh
Before he finished speaking, Xiao Yunke whipped it over, directly on Tang Yuying's face, Tang Yuying immediately fell backwards and collapsed on the ground, and a blood mark soon appeared on her face, and the blood slowly poured out.
Her maid was immediately shocked, and hurriedly squatted down to help her and asked, "Miss, are you okay?"
