Chapter 450: Southwind County's Discussion
Although Sheng Weiqiao regretted coming to this flower-viewing banquet very much, but the matter had come to this point, she couldn't leave with her hands, and she could only take one step at a time.
Simply because the secrecy work of the eldest princess of Wuyang is doing a good job, no one knows that the real purpose of this flower-viewing banquet today is to let Sheng Weiqiao and Li Shengxu get in touch with each other, as for providing opportunities for others to see their partners...... That's all incidental.
So at the next banquet, Meng Liyi and the county lord of Deping said goodbye a few times, but they didn't burn the fire on Sheng Weiqiao's head.
And there is the eldest princess of Wuyang who just said, "The county lord of Kangzhao came to my house for the first time", and the earlier introduction of "Tu Changshi's daughter in the same year", everyone thinks that the reason why the eldest princess arranged Sheng Weiqiao's seat next to Li Shengxu is that Sheng Weiqiao was named the county lord, for the sake of the queen mother and the queen's face, and secondly, it is to take into account the face of Changshi Tu Ruchuan.
After all, the eldest princess of Wuyang's concubine, Yang Wuhou Lijun, died early, and the youngest son Li Shengxu who was left behind was weak and sickly, and the eldest princess was too late to revolve around this son all day long, and she had no time to pay attention to trivial matters.
Over the years, the eldest princess's mansion has relied on Tu Ruchuan's single-handedness, so the eldest princess's mother and son have relied on Tu Ruchuan very much and trusted, and they have always been very decent for this long history.
"If you fight alone, in fact, Miss Meng Twelve is probably not the opponent of the Lord of Deping. Seeing this, Sheng Weiqiao was a little relieved, but he had the intention of watching the battle, and after watching it for a while, he secretly thought, "It's no wonder that Miss Meng Twelve is a few years younger than the county lord of Deping." What's more, the county lord of Deping has been under the fence since he was a child, and he has lost the support of his grandmother before, all the way to the present, where can he not grow a few more eyes? And although Miss Meng Twelve is the same concubine as the county lord of Deping, her biological mother is still alive, and it is rumored that she is the favorite concubine of Wu'anhou, although she is not like Aunt Jiaoyu, she has not been favored to the extent of pressing down his wife, but with the protection of her mother, Miss Meng Twelve's life is much better than that of Lord Deping after all. ”
It's just that the lord of Deping is fighting alone, but Meng Liyi is not, among the people present, there are a lot of her cousins and nieces, where is there anyone who doesn't help herself?
So after several intrigues, it was the county lord of Deping who fell behind.
But Meng Liyi didn't feel happy, because the eldest princess of Wuyang seemed to persuade each other to make peace, but she always said "like a sister" and "Shengxu's aunt" to her, which was simply a clear reminder of the generation gap between her and Li Shengxu.
Meng Liyi held her breath in her chest, and it was not good for her to attack the eldest princess of Wuyang, so she could only double her anger at the county lord of Deping.
For a while, although the eldest princess of Wuyang and Huan Yehe, who were recognized as exquisite, all mediated together, there was some tension at the table.
Sheng Weiqiao was looking at it intently, and suddenly her sleeves were torn off, she subconsciously turned her head to look, but saw Li Shengxu staring at the dishes in front of her, and said in a low voice: "What are you doing here stupidly? Why don't you hurry up and find an excuse to hide out?"
"What am I hiding out for?" Sheng Weiqiao was stunned for a moment, and then then understood, is this a hint that the two of them are avoiding the table to get to know each other?
Originally, this was said before coming, but at this moment, Sheng Weiqiao looked at Meng Liyun and then at Lord Deping, and immediately hesitated: This water is mixed like this, what else is she doing?
It was only after hesitating for a moment that Li Shengxu snorted: "What's the matter?
“…… I'll go!" Sheng Weiqiao immediately got up.
Are you kidding?
Meng Liyi and the county lord of Deping are about to roll up their sleeves and do it directly, if they find out that she is the prospective daughter-in-law of the eldest princess of Wuyang, they must immediately abandon their previous suspicions and join forces to fight with her?
But......
After casually finding an excuse to leave the table alone, Sheng Weiqiao thought depressedly: "Didn't Uncle Tu Shi say that Yichun Hou is generous and has a good character?"
Why doesn't she feel like ......?
It didn't take long for Li Shengxu to catch up, and when he saw her, he nodded, and didn't say much, "Follow me!"
Although Sheng Weiqiao and him were only meeting for the second time, since it was a contact that was recognized by Old Lady Sheng, Tu Ruchuan, and Princess Wuyang, he naturally would not suspect him of bad intentions, so he immediately followed.
As a result, this walk is a full two incense, out of the flower forest in the middle, out of the garden, through the corridor and across the bridge, along the way nine bends and eighteen bends, like dodging the pursuers, and finally finally finally entered a single courtyard, the courtyard is about half an acre in size, planting flowers and grass to build mountains and digging ponds, building a style of Jiangnan garden.
"Sit down, sit down!" Li Shengxu entered here, finally stopped, and did not enter the house, but sat in the pavilion by the rockery outside, wiped the sweat on his forehead, beckoned the people on call in the court to make tea, and said to Sheng Weiqiao's master and servant, "It should be safe here!"
“…… Are you afraid that Miss Meng Twelve and Lord Deping will catch up?" Sheng Weiqiao's mouth twitched and twitched, and he deeply felt that he shouldn't listen to Old Lady Sheng!
What's going on!
She had never walked such a long way several times in her life!
I don't know, I thought that Li Shengxu was choosing a wife based on physical strength!
When Li Shengxu heard this, he said with a look of annoyance: "It's not just them! There are also those who covet this Hou Ye, don't you know when this Hou Ye doesn't know? Chang'an, this generation, few people have said good things about this Hou Ye since they were young! Either they curse that this Hou Ye will not live long, or they laugh at my Li family, and most of them will be extinct...... At this moment, when I saw that the Marquis had recovered, they came up one by one like flies!
Special mention of the sisters Meng Liyi and Meng Liti, "Ben Hou Ye just heard the whispers of the people below, saying that those two people actually specifically mentioned chasing and beating Ben Hou Ye and forcing Ben Hou Ye to escape from the rockery under the vines!!?
"In terms of seniority, it is the aunt of the Hou Ye, relying on the power of the Meng family, bullying the Hou Ye at that time, the body has not healed, and he can't beat the two of them, the name is play, but it is actually bullying, and in less than half a day, the Hou Ye is injured all over his body...... Afterwards, my mother hugged Ben Hou Ye and cried for a long time, and now I feel very distressed when I mention it!!"
"They still think it's a childhood sweetheart?!"
"Such a vicious little slut, this marquis will never want them if he doesn't marry them for the rest of his life!!"
I didn't forget the county lord of Deping, "The old girl, I really thought no one knew about the matter of Chongxinbo who was drugged before?! Although I don't know how she coaxed Concubine Mo, but Chongxinbo can't even look down on her, let alone this marquis?!
"These women who covet the title of Marquis Ben and are beautiful are not a good thing!!"
Looking at his excited and indignant appearance, Sheng Weiqiao coughed dryly and said, "It's not like this for everyone at the table, right?" For example, the county lord of Jingshu is generous and generous, and he is definitely not such a person!"
Of course, she may not like you......
"My mother said that Jing Shu has too many eyes!" Li Shengxu immediately said, "Although I am all well now, after a year and a half of recuperation, I will definitely be able to grow as long and healthy as a boy of the same age, but my body and bones have not been very good before, and it is better to recuperate!
Sheng Wei Qiao Xin said that the eldest princess of Wuyang is afraid of hurting your self-esteem, so she said it euphemistically, but she is actually afraid that you will not be able to fight the county lord of Jingshu at all!
But then I thought about it, so the eldest princess of Wuyang took a fancy to herself, obviously thinking that Li Shengxu could suppress herself? !
That's a big deal!
So Sheng Weiqiao snorted coldly: "So, Your Highness thinks I have no heart?"
"My mother said you have a good heart. "How do you know that Li Shengxu said seriously, "She said that your father's backyard is clean, and now there is not even a maid in the room, and she is even more fond of your daughter-in-law, and it is said that girls who grow up in such an environment are generally a little arrogant and do not know how to understand people." But looking at your respect for Sheng Sleeping Crane, it is obvious that you are kind and generous by nature!"
Sheng Weiqiao suddenly smiled, and said with fake modesty: "Your Highness is really a fool......
Her Royal Highness the eldest princess of Wuyang still has eyesight!
Ben Nan is so kind and generous by nature, those who say that Ben Nan is stupid, has no heart, and has no city government are not long-eyed!!
As a result, I heard Li Shengxu say slowly: "My mother said that in this world, there are not many girls from rich and noble families like you, and you can't miss it if you meet it!"
"......" Sheng Weiqiao was expressionless for a moment, stood up, and said simply, "Goodbye!"
Ben Nan knew that this banquet should not have come at all!!
However, she felt that Li Shengxu didn't seem to be as well-behaved and generous as Tu Ruchuan described, and her premonition was verified!
Li Shengxu saw that she was leaving, and he didn't stop her, he only picked up the tea bowl and said slowly: "You go, you go, this Hou Ye will immediately go back to the table to announce that this Hou Ye will fall in love with you at first sight, and he will recognize you in this life, and he will not give up if he does not marry you!"
“…… Master Hou, everyone is not related to each other, there is no injustice or hatred, as for you want to cheat me like this?!" Sheng Weiqiao turned his head in disbelief, "Didn't you say that everyone will take a look in private, and only continue if you get along, and if you don't get along, you will break up?!"
"But Master Ben feels very compatible with you!" Li Shengxu looked at her innocently, "So why do you want to disperse?"
Sheng Weiqiao said angrily: "But I don't think I can get along with you, Master Hou!"
Li Shengxu asked puzzledly: "Why? This marquis wants a title and a title, and he wants to have a good look, and his mother is still the eldest princess of the court, and his family background is also very good...... Everyone is the same age, and the conversation is also very pleasant, and then it is time to discuss the marriage date, dowry, dowry, etc., how can you regret the marriage?!"
“…… Master Hou, please don't say this kind of misleading words, we just met in private and said a few words, and most of them are you saying that I am listening!" Sheng Weiqiao glared at him angrily, "The atmosphere of the national dynasty is open, this is nothing at all! As for the wedding date or something...... That's all a shadowless thing, so there's no talk of regretting marriage or not regretting marriage!!"
Li Shengxu thought for a while and said, "Well, so what?"
"So I'm leaving now!" Sheng Weiqiao glared at him, "Master Hou, you are at your own convenience!"
She took two steps, and saw that Li Shengxu did not threaten herself like before, so she breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly felt that something was wrong, and when she looked back, she saw the young man in scarlet clothes with his hands crossed behind his head, and followed behind!
Seeing that she stopped and glared at herself, Li Shengxu looked inexplicable: "You let this Hou Ye take care of himself! Moreover, this is the eldest princess's mansion, the mansion of this Hou Ye's mother, you are just a guest, there is a way to be a guest, do you have to listen to you where this Hou Ye is going? You are not the wife of this Hou Ye now, why do you care about this Hou Ye?!"
Knowing that he was deliberately using Meng Liyi and the county lord of Deping to blackmail him, Sheng Weiqiao took a deep breath and let go: "If you want to follow, you can follow!
She just came here with the mentality of comforting her grandfather, and she didn't have the idea that Li Shengxu was bound to win, so she didn't want to grudge with Meng Liyi and the county lord of Deping for him!
Is it really when she is afraid of Meng Liyi and the county lord of Deping? !
After all, at this time, she is not the daughter of a powerful family in a small county when she came to Chang'an, in terms of identity, she has the title of the county lord;
So what if she let Li Shengxu follow her back to the table?
