Chapter Seventy-Eight: Ao Luan Mirror: Look, I'll just say it's a conspiracy!
That night, after Xu Baomo bathed and changed clothes, he opened several large suitcases in his luggage, carefully selected them for a long time, and finally decided to wear the big red woven gold makeup flower unicorn cloud yarn round-necked robe that he had not yet made when he left Cangwu County; he bundled the Songlu Lingzhi broad white jade belt that his mother specially sent back from Chang'an in the middle of the year; tied a pair of colorful flower-saving palace silk made by his sister, and fell with the mutton fat jade double goose ring of the imperial gift Ning Weihou; the white silk pinched the gold tooth silk pants at the bottom, and the feet were embroidered with cicadas and insects perched on the sycamore leaves.

On the head, he wears a small crown of purple gold engraved cloud pattern inlaid with pearls, and inserts a mutton fat jade plain hairpin.
After the costume was finished, Xu Baomo was very satisfied with the self-portrait in the mirror, and thought confidently: "This son is so handsome and chic, talented, young and golden, graceful, knowledgeable, eloquent, and both civil and military...... Ao Shimei, she must have secretly admired this son for a long time, the reason why she has not looked at this son since she got on the boat, it must be because she saw her grandfather and grandmother trying to match this son and Da Qiao, she can only hide her love for this son in her heart, and try to suppress herself and not show it!"
So even if he came to the door at night, Xu Baomo believed that under the huge surprise, Ao Luanjing would never care about the etiquette!
Even if Ao Luanjing is ice clear and jade clean enough, it doesn't matter, after all, the handsome prince of the world has prepared such a statement: "Shimei knows, from the first time I saw Shimei, I knew that there was no second woman in this life who could enter my eyes!"
Although he has said this to countless women, well, it seems that he also said the same thing when he flirted with Sheng Weiqiao before.
But again, it doesn't matter - as long as Ao Luanjing doesn't know!
What's more, there is a follow-up to his remarks this time, "It's a pity that my grandfather and grandmother wanted to marry the Sheng family wholeheartedly because of their friendship with the old man of the Sheng family, so they forced me to curry favor with Wei Qiao Shimei." Under the pressure of my elders, I had to suppress my love for Shimei in my heart and force a smile in front of Wei Qiao Shimei!"
"But!"
"The more I force a smile in front of Wei Qiao Shimei, the more I will never forget you, Shimei!"
"It's been two years!"
"More than 700 days and nights, and more than 700 days and nights of torment - I, I really can't continue to endure it, even if I go back and be beaten to death by my grandfather and grandmother, I can't continue to deceive my heart!!"
"Because, from beginning to end in my heart, there is only you, Shimei, !!"
If there is any hesitation in Ao Luanjing, Xu Baomo still has a nirvana, "Although my grandfather and grandmother respect the old man of the Sheng family, they very much hope that Qiao Shimei will be my wife of the Xu family." But my parents don't approve of this, and the reason why I come to confess my heart to Shimei now is precisely because we can meet my parents when we go to Chang'an!"
"At that time, I will definitely tell my parents and ask them to help explain my heart to my grandfather and grandmother, and also make it clear to Wei Qiao Shimei thoroughly, so that I can officially marry Shimei as my wife!!"
The affection of two years of admiration and the promise of marrying the Ming media, the point is that he is still so handsome and chic, talented, young and golden, graceful, knowledgeable, eloquent, and both civil and military - Xu Baomo believes that even if he miscalculates, Ao Luanjing's previous good impression of himself is not to the level of admiration, and he will definitely not be able to withstand such a fierce attack!
"Even if Ao Shimei is still in control, she doesn't invite this son into the room on the spot to talk about poetry and lyrics...... But three thousand tenderness must also be tied to the son of this world!"
"In the future, as long as I maintain my affection for her, it is only a matter of time before I want to make a private agreement with this son for life!"
"In this way, after arriving in Chang'an, this son can naturally inform his father and mother of this matter, presumably whether it is his father and mother, or his grandfather and grandmother, it is impossible for this son to abandon the granddaughter of the old lady of the Ao family, right?"
Thinking of this, Xu Baomo touched his chin and felt a little annoyed, "It's just that in this way, on the next road, there will be a port stop, even if there is time and opportunity, I am afraid that it will not be easy for this Shizi to appreciate the level of green buildings in these places along the way, as well as the boldness of the beautiful girls......"
After all, if Ao Luanjing gets jealous and wants to break up, how can he get out of the clutches of Sheng Weiqiao, a tigress, without this excellent shield?
Recalling Sheng Weiqiao's fierceness and the consequences of marrying this Da Qiao, Xu Baomo shuddered, and suddenly felt that it was not a big deal to be unable to find flowers and ask Liu in a short period of time, "In the final analysis, it is to quickly divide with Da Qiao and cut off any possibility for her to marry into Ningwei Hou's Mansion!!"
Thinking like this, he immediately put aside his distracting thoughts and concentrated on thinking about how to take down the Ao Luan mirror tonight - after studying the expression, phrasing, and posture in front of the mirror for a long time, and even figured out how many points the corners of his mouth were ticked off, in order to highlight his handsomeness and chic, talented, young and golden, graceful, knowledgeable, eloquent, and both civil and military...... Xu Baomo also specially rummaged through the cabinet and found an ivory gilt folding fan.
On the front of this folding fan is a poem of his predecessors inscribed by him: "Exquisite dice and red beans, lovesick to the bones." β
On the back is a cluster of red beans - this red bean picture is one of the most satisfying works in Xu Baomo's paintings over the years.
Then his scheming did not stop there: the fan bones are all ivory-based, gilded patterns, not to mention, the fan pendant at the bottom is made of a thumb-sized piece of fine jadeite, carved into the shape of a lotus; and under the lotus is also decorated with two bright red coral beads, carved into the shape of a red bean; strung with ice silk, the end is an inch-long garnet red tassel.
In this way, between talking and laughing with a fan, although it adds a little elegance and grace, but the big red robe and coral red beans set off the verdant and bright color of the jadeite, and quietly show the luxury of the Hou Mansion!
"Tonight will be an unforgettable day for Ao Shimei for the rest of her life!! Xu Baomo sorted out his appearance for the last time, and after confirming that it was correct, he looked at the copper leak in the corner of the house, and felt that the time was about the same - now the people on the whole ship should have slept, and Xu Cong, who had been in the house for the night, was also rushed to the next person's cabin by him to find an excuse during the day to settle down, and after rehearsing the prepared affectionate expressions and sweet words in his heart, he went out with confidence and went up to the third floor lightly.
"Speaking of which, thanks to Da Qiao's previous injury, everyone came up to see her together. Standing in front of Ao Luanjing's cabin, Xu Baomo thought happily, "Otherwise, there is no reason for this world to come to these three floors, and I don't know which cabin the girls live in!"
Imagine that he quietly ran up in the middle of the night to seduce Ao Luanjing.
If he finally knocked on a door, only to find that he had made a mistake - or even knocked on Sheng Weiqiao's door, he couldn't even think about the consequences!
Fortunately, two days ago, Sheng Weiqiao injured his ankle and made it inconvenient to go downstairs, so he came up with Sheng Minghe and Ao Luanxiao to visit and inquire about the reason, and by the way, he knew where the cabins of the four girls were.
"Da Qiao must not know that her fierce and terrifying Ben Shizi had to hit Ao Shimei with her idea, but it was precisely because of her injury that she gave Ben Shizi this chance to escape!" Xu Baomo tried to hold back the rising corners of his mouth, straightened his already very upright clothes, and knocked on the door with the gentle and affectionate appearance that he was best at.
Although the knock on the door was deliberately lightened, it was still clear in the silence of the night, and it was not long before there was the sound of someone sitting on their shoes, and the question with a deep sense of sleep: "Who?"
"Is it Miss Sisi? Xu Baomo heard that this was Ao Luanjing's henchman Sisi, put down his hand, and said softly, "If there is something important, please talk to Ao Shimei, I don't know if the girl can spread it?"
There seemed to be a little surprise inside: "Xu Shizi, this big night's ...... But I don't know what the prince has to tell my young lady? Moreover, this is the Sheng family's building boat, and my young lady is just a guest, if the prince needs help, is it more appropriate to go to the grand prince and the third lady?"
Xu Baomo frowned secretly when he heard this, and said in his heart, why is this girl so uninteresting?
This young man and woman, who came over at night, except for spending the moon before and after, complaining to each other, can there be other things?
actually asked Ben Shizi to find the Sheng family brothers and sisters - Ben Shizi was afraid of the pair of brothers and sisters, so he came to your young lady, okay?
Such an eyeless maid is simply disappointing!
If it weren't for the fact that he urgently needed Ao Shimei's help now, if he came just to find flowers and ask willows, he might have left - when the time comes, see how your young lady meets such a handsome, talented, young and golden, graceful, well-informed, eloquent, eloquent, civil and military Ruyi Langjun!
But then he came to his senses: "Isn't this maid also in love with this son, is it because she will see the intention of this son, be jealous, and deliberately make a hindrance from it?"
He couldn't help but sigh secretly, "This silk is really not an ordinary stupidity! With her identity, it is impossible to marry the son of this world." Even if she is a concubine for this son, it is impossible to be ordinary - unless her young lady marries this son and becomes a wife, and when she passes through the door, she takes her as a dowry, and then naturally gives her to this son as an aunt, which is the only way for her to serve this son!"
Thinking like this, the dissatisfaction in Xu Baomo's heart also dissipated, after all, he never resented those girls who admired him, even if he occasionally had a grudge, it was easy to forget it when he turned his head - he cleared his throat and continued to say softly: "Miss Sisi, you just have to tell your young lady this and ask Ao Shimei to decide!"
The silk in it didn't know if she also thought of the only way to stay with Xu Baomo, or didn't dare to stop the master's peach blossom too much, hesitated for a while, and reluctantly agreed: "The prince waits, the slave will go and tell the young lady." However, the young lady has already been settled, and I'm afraid it will take a while. β
Xu Baomo hurriedly said: "It's okay, I took the liberty to disturb it." β
Ao Shimei won't be able to come out until a while--of course!
After all, he hugged Mo and a man, and he only came out after dressing up for a long time, not to mention that Ao Luanjing, as a girl, if he wasn't blocking the door now, this sister would have started dressing up from the bath and changing clothes, he wouldn't be surprised!
"Fortunately, Ben Shizi came late, everyone will sleep, and the sailors and nurses who haven't slept are not on the third floor!" Xu Baomo shook the folding fan open, and slapped it twice in a relaxed manner, but quickly put it away because he felt weird and cold, rearranged the ends of his hair that were fanned, and groaned, "It's okay to wait a little longer! Well, after Ao Shimei opens the door, will Ben Shizi fold the folding fan and hold it in his hand, or unfold it and hold it like this......"
He is in a happy mood here, behind the screen inside, Ao Luan Mirror, who is only wearing a middle coat, and the maid is very nervous!
"I said a long time ago that Sheng Weiqiao ran over to sleep with me inexplicably, there must be a conspiracy !!" Ao Luanjing's face turned pale, and he lowered his throat for fear of waking up Sheng Weiqiao, who was already asleep, and said in a deep voice, "Sure enough, this Xu Baomo will come to the door!!"
