Chapter 249: Twigs
Qi Ling wants to start from the army, and the person who has to rely on the king should be the king, but what he wants to see is Tang Xiaowangye?
This is really puzzling. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Liang Ming's puzzled eyes were completely undisguised and turned to Tang Menglan, and Tang Menglan was suddenly a little uncomfortable when Liang Cheng looked at her like this.
"What Qi Xuan wants to do with my eldest brother, I don't know, just now we didn't have time to say anything, we already ran into Zhong Qing. β
Liang Cheng was stunned for a moment, what, could it be that she guessed wrong, Qi Ling and Tang Menglan had just met? Otherwise, based on the scene they saw in the East Garden just now, the three of them should have only met recently.
"Miss Tang is here with His Royal Highness Qi Ling, how come she hasn't talked about this issue for such a long time?"
"We did come very early, but we had just stepped into Taixue, and Qi Ling was called over by his teacher, Mr. Liu Zhuang, and we had just met again. Tang Menglan said a little speechlessly.
"I see. β
It's no wonder that there was such a long interval in between, but Zhong Qing had just met Qi Ling and Tang Menglan, which made sense.
After Liang Cheng figured it out, she didn't bother about this matter anymore.
However, Tang Menglan suddenly said to Liang Cheng at this time: "But it's really an unexpected joy to meet you here today, so I don't have to go to the Zhendong General's Mansion in person to visit in two days." β
As he spoke, Tang Menglan took a post from the hand of the maid behind him and handed it to Liang Cheng in person.
"What is this?" Liang Cheng took the post in some surprise, she didn't understand what Tang Menglan was doing, but after a little flipping it open, Liang Cheng smiled.
"Miss Song is too polite, in fact, her mother had already received a post sent by the Princess of England two days ago, she didn't need to send another copy so politely. "What's more, let Tang Menglan run errands.
Tang Xiaowang and Song Yaohua's family affairs have almost been prepared, and the ceremony will be officially held in half a month.
And the British princess had already sent someone to the Zhendong General's Mansion a few days ago, inviting the Shen family to come that day, and Liang Cheng had already known about it.
But what she didn't expect was that Song Yaohua would ask Tang Menglan to send this invitation to her alone.
This gave Liang Cheng a lot of face.
You must know that in Jian'an, there are very few people who can let Miss Tang personally come to send the post, and it is not that no one can afford this post, but there are too few people who can make Tang Menglan come to send it willingly.
Therefore, when Liang Cheng saw the words on the post clearly and knew that this was an invitation post that Song Yaohua asked Tang Menglan to personally send to her, she was a little surprised.
However, she was surprised, but Liang Cheng didn't think it was too big, she would think that Tang Menglan was willing to come to deliver the post in person, because it was for her sake.
can make someone like Tang Menglan naturally belong to Song Yaohua.
Although she and Song Yaohua were just in a hurry in the British Prince's Mansion that day, although the time was short, Tang Menglan's awe of Song Yaohua during the period, even if she was not obvious, Liang Cheng still found out.
Tang Menglan was afraid that he would not be able to defeat Song Yaohua's orders this time, so he personally came to hand over the post to her, but how could Tang Menglan know that he would definitely meet her today, and he even brought the invitation sticker with him.
Liang Cheng raised her eyebrows lightly and looked at the post in her hand, while Tang Menglan saw her doubts at a glance.
"Today, before coming to Taixue, my sister-in-law told me about the post again, so I always carried it with me. Besides, before I came, I had already heard that Zhong Qing would also come to Taixue for a banquet today. β
Tang Menglan has a smart temperament, she will see her unspoken doubts, and Liang Cheng is not surprised.
But how did Tang Menglan know that Zhong Qing would also come to the banquet today?
Although it is a well-known thing that the son of the Zhong family is among the best in this big exam, it is not strange that Qi Ling understands the situation in the Zhong family, but how could Tang Menglan know so clearly that Zhong Qing is coming to Taixue to attend this celebration banquet today.
Who did you listen to?
After Liang Cheng pondered slightly for a while, she only thought of Qi Ling, what Qi Ling said to Tang Menglan? Otherwise, among the people around Tang Menglan, in addition to Qi Ling being so concerned about and understanding the situation of the Zhong family, it seems that he is the only one who can contact Tang Menglan.
But since Qi Ling could say this to Tang Menglan bluntly, why couldn't he say hello to Zhong Qing before he came, could it be that he was afraid that Zhong Qing would be worried and unhappy?
But then again, this is indeed the case, if Zhong Qing learned that Qi Ling was so positive about the request for battle, then she must be worried. Liang Cheng recalled the things that made Zhong Qing frown recently, and it seemed that there was only one thing about Qi Ling.
For Xiyin and the common people of Xiyin, Qi Ling, who dared to go to the battlefield and wanted to defend the country without fear of death, was a competent clan royal family, and even a hot-blooded and brave young hero.
But for Zhong Qing, Qi Ling is just a somewhat irresponsible young man.
Qi Ling and Zhong Qing's family affairs have been almost prepared, and everything has been put on the agenda early, but at this time, Qi Ling said to Zhong Qing that he was going to go to the battlefield to die for a lifetime.
No matter who puts it on you, it's a hard thing to accept.
At the very least, Liang Cheng can feel Zhong Qing's helplessness and sadness, especially this ideal that is still under the banner of the supreme concept of protecting the country and the people, Zhong Qing can hardly even have the words and rights to stop it.
At this time when even the second princess, the Yang family, could only be silent, what could Zhong Qing say?
It's just that Qi Ling is not a scarecrow, how could he not feel Zhong Qing's unhappiness and worry, but even so, he still chose to run towards the fierce battle.
Such Qi Ling, Liang Cheng really didn't know what to say, thinking from the perspective of the people of Xiyin, the more such clan sons and daughters naturally the better, but if it was on the side of Zhong Qing's friends, then Liang Cheng couldn't say anything more than silence.
Liang Ming's mood suddenly became heavy, and this also made the atmosphere between her and Tang Menglan involuntarily render a little melancholy, so that Tang Menglan also followed Liang Cheng silently.
But this kind of quietness was just a flash in the pan, because the next moment, Tang Menglan suddenly raised his head and asked Liang Cheng again, "Have you ever made an appointment with Prince Chu Gu recently?"
With a boom, the thunder exploded in Liang Yuan's ears.
"Miss Tang, I don't know what you mean by that. β
Liang Ming's amber pupils looked at Tang Menglan and shrank slightly, but Tang Menglan didn't care at all, she looked at Liang Cheng and said frankly: "What's there to understand about this, I just want to say, if the third young lady gets together with Chu Gu Gongzi again, you will also inform me of the trouble." β
Why?
"Because Qi Jiu, the son of King Ying, has been too close to Prince Chu Gu recently, and because the war between the border pass and Houshu has started, His Royal Highness King Win and Princess Win have already ordered Brother Qi not to leave Beijing again, so in the past two days, I have received news that Brother Qi has a close relationship with Prince Chu Gu. Except for the invitation of Prince Chu Gu, even Her Royal Highness the princess couldn't move him. β
ββ¦β¦β¦ I see. β
Liang Cheng didn't ask why at all, but people had already said it all neatly and neatly to answer for her.
At this time, Liang Cheng was very speechless, but the denials that had long been held to her lips, those rejections that she was not familiar with Chu Gu at all, at this time, when facing Tang Menglan's eyes that could not be more open, Liang Cheng felt a little headache.
But she and Chu Gu are really not familiar with each other, at least in the thoughts that Tang Menglan thinks she has, she and Chu Gu are really not familiar with each other at all.
What she has, but just by virtue of the memories of her two lives, she is one step ahead of others to know him, and through this "familiarity", she has become a life-saving benefactor that he will never forget for the rest of his life.
But in addition, in fact, to Chu Gu, she is really just an ordinary outsider among all living beings.
If Tang Menglan wanted to use her to get close to Chu Gu, and then use Chu Gu to get close to Qi Jiu, then Liang Cheng was afraid that she would only be disappointed, after all, between her and Chu Gu, let alone not to mention that it had not reached this level of familiarity.
Even if it was 10,000 steps back, they were really acquaintances and friends, so Liang Cheng didn't dare to make an assertion and decided who could approach him for Chu Gu. If Liang Cheng really did that, wouldn't it be self-defeating?
Obviously knew that Chu Gu didn't like people to hide from him, lie to him, and bully him, so why did she have to make such a self-assertion?
Isn't this a typical self-defeating road!
Therefore, Liang Cheng naturally would not answer Tang Menglan's question at this time, if she dared to admit it perfunctorily, then I am afraid that greater trouble will come in the future. But if she doesn't answerβ
Liang Cheng looked up at Tang Menglan, who had been staring at her intently, and a sigh sounded in her heart.
After a long time, Liang Cheng spoke again, "Miss Tang, I'm afraid it's a misunderstanding, in fact, I and Chu Gu Gongzi just met a few times when we went to Linyang Palace to greet the concubine and her old man, and that is a relationship that I can't afford to be 'familiar with', let alone meet often." β
"These polite words, the third lady doesn't need to say ......... again"
"But if Miss Tang really wants to get acquainted with Chu Gu Gongzi so much, I can bring a message for Miss Tang. β
On the issue of Chu Gu, it is not the first time that Tang Menglan has talked about it.
But no matter how clear Tang Menglan said, Liang Cheng always tried her best to avoid it, Tang Menglan didn't think it was strange, but just when she was about to make persistent efforts to persuade Liang Cheng to help her, Tang Menglan's whole person suddenly stopped.
"Miss Liang San, did you just say something?"
Liang Cheng rubbed her forehead a little helplessly and said, "I just said that if Miss Tang really wants to meet with Chu Gu Gongzi so much, I can bring a message for Miss Tang." β
Tang Menglan paused for a longer time this time, and after a while, she reacted and grabbed Liang Cheng, and said in surprise: "Really!"
Liang Ming's thin body was almost pulled by Tang Menglan's blow, and she was stumbled, if it weren't for Tang Menglan's extremely quick reaction and hurriedly supporting Liang Ming, it is estimated that Liang Cheng would have fallen a lot by now.
Nian Xiang behind Liang Cheng was also frightened, originally five steps behind Liang Cheng and Tang Menglan, but now he hurriedly ran over with one arrow step, holding Liang Cheng's other hand and asked, "Miss, are you okay?"
"It's okay, it's okay. Liang Cheng replied with a light breath.
It's not that Tang Menglan's strength just now was so strong that she could almost overturn Liang Cheng, it's just that she was too thin, and Tang Menglan was too surprised just now, so the strength in her hand was not well handled, so she fell a little heavier.
But to be honest, Tang Menglan at this time was the one who was the most frightened, she never thought that the sick Xi Shi who had been rumored to be sick would really break when she touched it.
For normal people just now, Dingtian just felt a little pain, but when it came to Liang Cheng, it was the strength that could turn her over in a circle?
It's a little too thin!
As long as Tang Menglan remembered the feeling when she touched Liang Cheng's wrist just now, she couldn't stop shivering in her heart, it was a wrist or a branch, it was so thin that it seemed that she could break it with a slight force.
Tang Menglan looked at Liang Ming's wrist again in disbelief, and when his eyes touched the porcelain white face, Tang Menglan suddenly felt a little uneasy, "Third Miss, I'm sorry." β
Liang Ming, who was still being asked by Nian Xiang uneasily, if there was anything she had bumped into, suddenly saw that it was a lag.
Did she just hear it wrong?
Liang Cheng turned her head to look at Tang Menglan in some shock, and after clearly seeing the apology on her face, Liang Cheng's consternation slowly dissipated, and Liang Cheng smiled: "It's not Miss Tang's fault, Miss Tang doesn't have to mind." β
The atmosphere that had already been joyful just now was rushed by this accident, and suddenly became cold again, and Liang Cheng and Tang Menglan didn't know what to say for a while.
The scene was quiet in an instant, but at this time, a little maid suddenly walked over from behind, leaned into Nian Xiang's ear and whispered a few words.
"Miss!"
Liang Cheng and Tang Menglan were silently pacing together in front of them slowly, but Nian Xiang suddenly walked behind Liang Cheng and called in a low voice.
