Chapter 160: Temptation Step by Step
Le Yu opened her lips in vain, but she still couldn't say a word.What could she say? The wheel of fate was disrupted, and the originally irrelevant people were involved, but they tried their best to get it back on track, and they didn't control the will of the people in the game.
After thinking about it again and again, Le Yu still said slowly: "Ancheng is virtuous and steady, and sensible and knowledgeable, it is a match made in heaven with Hou Ye, and the fate of three lives.
Ji Shuyu looked at the woman sitting in front of her steadily, she was wearing a pale green cross-collared right coat embroidered magnolia dress today, like a waterfall black hair pulled into a simple snail bun, only fixed with a jasper hairpin, with two thumb-sized southern pearls hanging from her ears, she looked elegant and gentle, but the whole person was indifferently alienated, he had an illusion that the woman in front of him was so far away from him, so far away.
He gradually panicked, and said in a hoarse voice: "But the person I like is not her, but..."
Le Yu was seen by his gaze that the faint halo was gradually growing, so she simply pushed the case up, slowly walked to the railing, looked at the lush and fresh air outside, and interrupted him in a low voice: "Life is in the world, the unsatisfactory person is the best of ten.Everyone has their own position and responsibility, as me, as the daughter of the Xiao family, I want to protect the Xiao family, protect the people I care about, this is my responsibility; And Master Hou, you are the future king of Qinghai, shouldering the burden of Qinghai, you have to protect Qinghai, protect your people, this is your responsibility.
Ji Shuyu's momentary impulse was swallowed back raw, and he laughed bitterly, Since you don't want me to say it, I won't say it. Looking at the tea and soup on the bamboo table in a daze, has she made her own decisions since she was a child? No, but this is her own life. So whether she has to face her eldest brother and sister-in-law, or Emperor Dayong, Ji Shuyu is confident that she can take her away, but, but, she is unwilling.
He closed his eyes in a dejected manner, didn't he already know the result of this? Do you have to listen to her say no again?
The loneliness and sadness in Ji Shuyu's eyes made Le Yu unbearable to witness, and the breeze blew and blew her wisps of green silk. Dancing playfully on his shoulder, this scene fell in Ji Shuyu's eyes, so beautiful as an elf, destined to be unforgettable for a lifetime.
Neither spoke. Let the tranquility render in the tea room. Hunting with the mountain wind, quietly healing some scars.
There were people outside the tea room again, and there seemed to be a lot of people listening to the footsteps, and there was a familiar coquettish voice: "It's clean here, Brother Ye, let's go to the private room and sit inside."
Le Yu was slightly stunned, the bamboo curtains were sparse, and the figure was faint. But it is clear that the tea house is narrow and small, and there are not many elegant rooms. Le Yu and their location just happened to be able to see the waterfall and camellia bushes in the back mountain, the scenery is the best, everyone has gone straight to the tea room where Le Yu and they are, and the old man who sells tea laughs with him: "Miss, childe, there are already people in that room."
The woman's voice was unscrupulous: "Let them change, the lord of this county likes that."
As she spoke, she lifted the bamboo curtain, and the two faced each other, and the woman was surprised, "How could it be you?" Le Yu and Ji Shuyu glanced at each other, and all of them stood up, Ji Shuyu only bowed slightly, but Le Yu bent her knees and saw a blessing, "I haven't seen you for many days, but the demeanor of the county lord is still the same."
Huaimin's fiery red riding suit is light and tight, outlining the delicate curves of the body, plump and hot, wearing a red cloak is even more heroic, and the hair on the head is combed high and tied with a golden crown, revealing a slender jade neck and a faint collarbone, the whole person is dazzling and conspicuous.
She obviously didn't expect to meet Le Yu and Ji Shuyu here, and she didn't expect these two people to be together, remembering Ancheng, she couldn't help but sink her face, but she was inexplicably relieved, "Why are you here?"
The person behind her bent down and came in, the dark color robe and big sleeves that she often wears, who is it not Cheng Lingye?
This chance encounter was really a coincidence, Le Yu was scornful in her heart, and her face was calm: "I made an appointment with Miss Miao to go up the mountain for a walk, but I didn't want to meet Ji Houye, so I chatted a few words, ready to play a game of chess, and I haven't put the chess pieces yet, I don't want the county lord and the prince to arrive, it's really a coincidence."
Cheng Lingye's gaze turned on the two of them, his dark eyes darkened, as if he was angry, and then disappeared without a trace in an instant, recovering his expressionless appearance.
Huai Min's bright eyes rolled, as if he didn't believe it, "Then where did Miss Miao go?"
Le Yu smiled and gave up her seat, "Sister Yizhen is interested, she went to pick tea, and she hasn't come back yet."
Huai Min sat down without giving in, turned around and pulled Cheng Ling Ye's sleeve with a sweet smile, "Brother Ye, since you have met an acquaintance, let's sit together."
Cheng Lingye's chin tightened slightly, and annoyance flashed in his eyes, the last time she released Huaimin pigeons, she always clamored to accompany her out, so she was suspicious, he had to reluctantly accompany her out, and deliberately walked Yunwu Mountain, but he didn't want to meet Le Yu.
Ji Shuju
Cheng Lingye sat down next to Huaimin, his eyes were cold, and his hostility was faint, "It's a pleasure to be able to compete with Hou Ye." Huai Min stroked his palms and smiled: "That's a good dare, I haven't seen Brother Ye play chess for a long time.
Le Yu sat on her knees, only smiling silently.Cheng Lingye's slender fingers played with the smooth and dark chess pieces, and smiled faintly, "Why not?"
Le Yu glanced at him quickly, although he still said very little, and he didn't have any special expression, but Le Yu didn't know why, she just knew that Cheng Lingye was angry, and this anger didn't seem to be light.
After guessing, the two of them began to play chess. Both of them are masters, and they can't tell the winner for a while
She is also a very smart person, and after the events of that day, there was still a trace of doubt in her heart.If it weren't for Cheng Lingye's appointment to go to enjoy the flowers, she and her mother would not have gone to Chong'en Temple, let alone run into Jiang Wu's secret, and get involved in the bloody case of the Mianguo Mansion!
However, Huaimin's thoughts were racing, even if she didn't go, Princess Ding'an's annual blessing was fixed, and she would still break Jiang Wu's family, which made her hesitate a little.
After a year, Le Yu has become taller, her eyebrows and eyes have become more and more stretched, and she is already a graceful girl, with more and more delicate and clear appearance.
But no matter how Huaimin looks at it, he doesn't think that she is more beautiful than himself, will Brother Ye really fall in love with this little girl who is not yet in time? For Cheng Lingye, who is used to seeing beauty, Huaimin doubts this.
The corners of Huaimin's ruddy and slightly plump mouth curled, and she said coquettishly: "Miss Xiao Si, I think you have lost some weight these days, but you don't sleep well? β
She seemed to be concerned and naΓ―ve, but her words were as sharp as a knife, and after speaking, she looked at Cheng Lingye quietly. Le Yu's black and white eyes shrank slightly, her face turned slightly white, and she pretended to be panicked and said, "Don't talk about this, the county lord, it's weird." β
Cheng Lingye pinched the chess pieces as if thinking, the expression on his face did not change at all, but he was already vigilant in his heart. Le Yu avoided the important and diverted the topic, but Huai Min was unwilling, remembering that night in the palace, Le Yu was able to speak freely and eloquently, so he knew that he was facing himself in the palace, and he was cautious. She prides herself on being the proud daughter of the sky, flattered by thousands of people, how can she tolerate sand in her eyes?
Yan Ran smiled at the moment, "What are you afraid of in broad daylight? Brother Ye is murderous, and any demons and monsters can be suppressed, isn't it?" Saying that, she was next to Cheng Lingye, although she didn't throw herself into her arms, but there was almost no space between the two, and a pair of sparkling eyes looked at Le Yu without blinking, as long as Le Yu showed a trace of jealousy or unhappiness, she could immediately confirm whether there was a relationship between this woman and Brother Ye.
Cheng Lingye's body tightened, resisting the urge to push Huaimin away, his face was as black as the bottom of a pot, but he couldn't help but glance at Le Yu worriedly.
Le Yu's shining eyes like stars were full of smiles, some were narrow, some teased and envious, and said softly: "The prince is mighty, and he can protect the county lord thoroughly." As he spoke, he couldn't help but look at Ji Shuyu, who was sitting as lightly as a wind and moon hill, a wisp of shyness flashed in his eyes, and he immediately lowered his head.
Huai Min saw it in his eyes, and suddenly realized, and the vigilance and hostility in his heart also faded, it turned out that this little slut fell in love with this crepe Fulinghou, no wonder, the future king of Qinghai, the status and power are first-class, and he is such a character, but unfortunately, it is not something you can afford......
Huai Min was disdainful in his heart, he sat up straight, with a kind and natural smile on his face, and said angrily: "I myself am also a good martial artist, so I need his protection?"
As he spoke, the sound of small footsteps came, and Yizhen coughed lightly outside, and said with a light smile: "This wild tea bud is very fresh and delicate, and it will taste strange when you take it back to make tea." β
As he spoke, he lifted the curtain and came in, and when he saw the people in this room, he was stunned. Huai Min glanced at Le Yu and said with a smile: "Miss Miao is so interested, how can you let the eldest lady go to such a rough job?" Ji Houye really doesn't know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, since he came together, he should take the initiative." β
Le Yu's heart twitched, and she looked at Yizhen worriedly. Yizhen's face is dignified and gentle, her temperament is elegant, and she is not annoyed when she hears the words, she smiles, and the light between her eyebrows makes people ashamed of herself: "The county lord said that he laughed, picking tea is just the fun of the idea, where is there a shortage of tea at home for you and me?" Besides, our sisters and Ji Houye just met on the way, neither the county lord and the prince are good at home, nor are they very familiar, how to work Houye, the county lord will really joke. β
Le Yu's heart fell into place, and she unconsciously handed Yizhen an appreciative look. The two of them who were playing chess glanced at each other, and the air that was stagnant in an instant returned to normal, and they both praised the exquisite mind of Miss Miao, who seemed to be as dignified and boring as ordinary ladies.
