Chapter 421: Someone has a convulsion
As soon as Huo Yan saw this battle, Erlang's legs on stilts stopped.
There are not many things in the entire Great Zhou that can make Xiao Huai put down his body like this to accompany him, not to mention that he has never even seen this young man.
"What's the matter?" he said, frowning.
Helan looked over when he heard this, and before he could see any clues, Xiao Huai and his party had already arrived.
"This is Lord Helan Zhen of our palace, and this is the prison superintendent, Lord Huo Jiuhuo. ——This is Mei Gongzi from Tanzhou. First time in Beijing, Helan, Huo Jiu, you get to know each other. ”
Huo Jiu's mind was full of questions, and he didn't know what this son from a small place had to entertain them-
Well, he admitted that because of Xiao Huai's extraordinary enthusiasm and the fact that the eldest aunt of the Shen family was also by his side, this battle made him feel some bad feelings, which made him extremely bitter.
But he still stood up neatly and saluted Mei Qiying.
When Mei Qiying heard his name, she couldn't help but look at him seriously, and then said respectfully: "Long admiration." ”
Helan Zhen also smiled with Mei Qiying: "Mei Gongzi, please take a seat." ”
The people who had already had a good presence here hurriedly moved the chairs and made tea, and a few people sat around and greeted each other.
Helan Yan was angry when she saw Mei Qiying's book, and immediately understood what Xiao Huai meant by bringing him to find him.
Although I don't know what his identity is, since he is so admired by all the princes in his life, he can't help but cooperate.
The two lives have made him very good at socializing with people, here Yang Qian is also a scholar, there are three people to speak, not to mention that Xiao Huai responds to a sentence or two from time to time, the scene is definitely not cold.
Huo Jiu Suri doesn't give much face, he doesn't speak, and usually no one thinks anything is wrong.
But because Mei Qiying was not familiar with him, Xu felt that such a person sitting here next to her was a little uncomfortable.
Therefore, he smiled and said to Huo Yu: "I have heard the prestige of Lord Eunuch, and I don't want to meet here today, Qi Ying is really honored." ”
Stretching out his hand not to hit the smiling man, Huo Yan pulled the corners of his mouth, picked up the cup to his mouth, and said, "I don't know if Gongzi Mei and the Shen family are-"
Yang Qian said with a smile: "Lord Huo didn't know that Master Mei was the future husband of our sister Yan. ”
Huo Yan had just drunk a sip of tea in his mouth, and when he heard this fiancé, he immediately grabbed the water into his throat, choked and coughed, and the water in the cup also spilled onto his body!
"Fiancé...... Son-in-law?!"
Fortunately, his kung fu was deep, and after swinging out two or three drops of tea, he immediately stabilized his body.
Helan Zhen and Xiao Huai both looked at him with admiration.
Yang Qian said: "Why don't you hand the handkerchief to the adult?"
Mei Qiying saw him like this, but she could only silently.
Huo Zhen steadied himself, took the handkerchief and wiped his lips, then cleared his throat and looked at Mei Qiying calmly, and then looked at Yang Qian: "Is it the future third aunt of the Shen family?"
"But with all due respect, why haven't you heard of it before?"
Xiao Huai and Helan both squinted at him.
He stalked his neck and looked frank.
"That's right," Yang Qian glanced back at Mei Qiying and said, "Master Mei and Master Shen San are old friends with deep affection, and the two families were engaged many years ago.
"It's just that Sister Yan is still young, and the Mei family is far away, so she doesn't move around very often, and it is reasonable for Master Huo not to know.
"This time, the Mei family took advantage of the happy event of the third uncle to enter Beijing to discuss marriage. ”
Huo Yan held his breath for a while, and said in a rambling voice: "It turns out that I haven't even seen it." ”
Yang Qian was stunned. He looked at Helan Chen, and He Lanzhen looked at Xiao Huai, who looked as confused as him.
Mei Qiying frowned without a trace, but still said politely: "Although I haven't seen it, but the order of my parents and the words of the matchmaker, Qiying attaches great importance to this marriage contract and respects the three girls." ”
Huo Zhen re-stilted Erlang's legs, picked up the cup and drank tea, and turned his head to look at the maple tree on the side while drinking, as if he didn't care much anymore.
Although this demeanor looked comfortable, it was a little impolite in front of Mei Qiying, a guest valued by the Shen family.
Mei Qiying felt that he did it on purpose.
Since Yang Qian explained his identity, this surnamed Huo has been a little weird, and looking at his very familiar appearance in the Shen family, could it be that he often sees Shen Yan?
He glanced at him silently, took a sip of tea, and then raised his eyes and said, "The Shen family has a close relationship with the palace, presumably, Lord Huo often sees the third girl?"
As soon as these words came out, Xiao Huai was a little impressed with him.
If Huo Jiu's previous reaction was purely convulsive, then why did Mei Qiying's words smell of gunpowder?
He looked at Helan Zhen opposite, Helan Zhen shook off the big folding fan, and laughed very coquettishly.
"It's not a common face. ”
Huo Yan slowly retracted his gaze, held the teacup and stilted his legs, and flicked his fingers on his calves: "But I just occasionally take her to handle a case, and I happen to meet outside for a meal or something."
"By the way, a few days ago, she sent a doctor to treat my wounds, and by the way, she asked her to help with the fight, and I was busy for most of the night.
"No way, I'm soft-hearted, as long as she calls me Brother Huo, I don't have a problem,—— Mei Gongzi won't mind, right?
"After all, Gongzi and Yan'er only have a verbal marriage contract, and they haven't made three media and six appointments, if I make you have a misunderstanding because of my unintentional mistakes, then I will be guilty. ”
If you mind this kind of thing, then he is a small belly, if you dare to misunderstand something, you will be suspicious!
What qualifications does a person with a small belly and a suspicious heart have to marry a daughter-in-law? Anyway, if there is no formal matchmaking, those who know each other will quickly withdraw from the marriage!
He was still sipping his tea slowly, his face was not salty or light, and he looked like the cool official who was terrifying.
Mei Qiying leaned back in her chair, her eyes a little uncertain.
Although he may not be haunted by this fiancée who has not met, it is a matter of men's dignity in the end, and there is no ambiguity.
Fang Cai noticed that this person had a strange expression, and now that he thinks about it, he is afraid that it is not far from the guess in his heart.
He glanced at the other side and said, "I have heard of Lord Huo's prestige for a long time, and my fiancée can be taken care of by adults in many ways, which not only shows that adults are far more friendly than rumors, but also shows that my father and mother have a good eye, and Qi Ying's luck is superior."
"Since the three girls regard the adults as their brothers, then when Qiying and the three girls marry in the future, they will inevitably invite the adults to appreciate the light. ”
's words were neither humble nor arrogant, not only ironizing Huo Yan back, but also defending Shen Yan, and quietly declaring his position.
Xiao Huai felt ashamed that he was fighting with Helan Zhen, and now he couldn't help but have a little admiration for this prospective brother-in-law who fell from the sky!
- It's fun.
He touched his chin.
Helan Zhen also stopped the fan.
Huo Jiu's face was a little green.
He leaned back in his chair, held a cup and chuckled: "Mei Gongzi is really glorious." ”
Mei Qiying raised her lips: "Lord Huo is also unexpectedly warm. ”
