Chapter Ninety-Three: The Prince's Beautiful Male Plan
"Childe, come and arrest us."
"Peach's over here, Childe."
"The time is coming, if you can't catch us, Childe will punish himself with three cups." In the garden of Taishi's Mansion, Yi Wenqi was blindfolded, playing happily with a group of beautiful little maids.
"Oh, Xinlian is back, come and play with us." A maid with sharp eyes found the two Qianqian standing on the side. Ignoring Qianqian's storage zΓ i, he happily called Shangxinlian to play together.
Xinlian looked at Qianqian cautiously, and shook her head unnaturally in refusal. Now that she has her life in the hands of Qianqian, how dare she be as unscrupulous as usual.
"Oops, I finally caught one for Ben Gongzi." Taking advantage of the gap between the maid's words, Yi Wenqi touched the direction of the voice, hugged the maid, and then took off the strip of cloth on her face and kissed her on the face.
The maid smiled and pretended to be coquettish and struggled, "Don't count, don't count, the son is cheating." β
As soon as she returned to the mansion, she saw this scene, and Qianqian frowned. It's okay to mess with flowers outside, and when you go home, you still mix up with the maids and are ambiguous. 's husband doesn't want to see her, so it's no wonder that the servants are high and low. Trying to suppress the anger in her heart, Qianqian gritted her teeth and turned to the direction of the study.
"Lin Gongzi, you can let the old man open his eyes at the gate of the palace today. The neat movements were actually faster than Xiahou Yichen. In the study, two figures sat and played against each other.
Lin Xiaoyu's face was calm, "Does Taishi want an explanation?" β
Yi Hongyuan sneered: "No matter how much you explain, it's in vain to take no action." β
"Xiaoyou is my junior sister, and no one knows her temper better than me. She is a person who admits death, and if she acts rashly, it will be counterproductive. β
Yi Hongyuan's face turned cold, "Then are you going to indulge her?" β
Lin Xiaoyu stared at the chessboard and landed steadily, "If you don't care, you won't appear in front of her." I've already arranged it together, it's time for you to get down. β
Yi Hongyuan was just about to play chess, and the voice of the player reported in the foreign court: "Master, the young lady is back." β
"It just so happens that this chess game looks like it's a draw today, so there's no need to play it." Lin Xiaoyu looked at the chess game seriously, got up and straightened out his clothes, and left through the secret door without waiting for Yi Hongyuan's signal.
After Lin Xiaoyu left, Yi Hongyuan turned his head sideways and ordered, "Let her in." β
The door sounded, and Qianqian's slender figure slowly walked in, "Dad, I'm back." Nono said, leaning over and saluting.
Yi Hongyuan glanced at her, "How is it?" See? "Lin Lanhai used a maid to marry instead, which is really hateful. However, this maid used to be the person next to Lin Xiaoyou, and it finally had some effect.
"See, it's just an ordinary reminiscence, and I didn't say anything. I also asked, when she ran away from the marriage, the young lady fainted on the side of the road, and it was the prince who happened to save her, and they didn't know each other in advance. The young lady said that the Lin Mansion owes her, and she must get it back. β
After listening to Qianqian's report, Yi Hongyuan's gloomy face rarely eased. "From today on, you are the dignified young lady of the Taishi Mansion, and you will be in charge of the affairs of the inner courtyard in the future."
"Dad......" Qianqian was surprised, looked up at him, and hurriedly lowered her head worriedly, and said uneasily: "Dad, what do you mean?" Qianqian's identity understands herself, and I am humble and have no qualifications to take over the affairs of the house. β
Looking at Qianqian's cowardly reaction, Yi Hongyuan snorted coldly when he hated iron and steel: A maid is a maid, and she still can't be put on the stage if she is a master. "The old man said that if you are qualified, you are qualified, who dares not to obey? I asked the housekeeper to arrange a ceremonial mama for you, and she will serve you closely in the future, and at the same time teach you the rules. It's the young lady of the Taishi Mansion, don't go out and embarrass us. β
She is even looked down upon by her subordinates on weekdays, but now she suddenly turns over and is in charge, good things come too quickly, and Qianqian is at a loss for a while. After a long time, he cautiously asked, "What do you need me to do?" β
Yi Hongyuan lowered his eyes slightly, and he didn't look too stupid. He didn't hurry to pick up the fragrant tea on the table, blew it and took a sip before he spoke: "It's very simple, you and the princess are sisters, and you can get together more and increase your feelings if you have nothing to do in the future." Do you understand what I mean? β
On the surface, it is to increase feelings, but in fact, let her spy on the news. Qianqian is not a fool, and she immediately understood Yi Hongyuan's intentions. "But ......"
"But what? Childe is not a director, shouldn't you, as the young lady of the Taishi Mansion, help the village? You know, you are just a little maid, the old man can raise you, and he can abolish you at any time. After being in the house for so long, you haven't deeply experienced the taste? Qianqian's embarrassed look made Yi Hongyuan angry. It's just a maid, and I don't believe how hard her bones can be. If the people from his Taishi Mansion don't help him deal with Lin Xiaoyou, it is difficult that they still want to help Lin Xiaoyou deal with him.
"As long as you are obedient, the young lady of the Taishi Mansion will always be you, not to mention your benefits. People, if you want others to value you, you have to have your use value. Besides, Lin Xiaoyu lived a free life in the palace, she never considered you, so why should you care about the friendship that was not worth mentioning in the past. β
Yi Hongyuan was half threatening and half tempting, forcing Qianqian to break out in a cold sweat, and her words hit her heart. It is true that many things are not won by others, but by oneself. She was really fed up with the contempt and humiliation she had encountered in the past, and she didn't want to go on like this anymore. Taking a deep breath, her small hands clenched into fists unconsciously, "Yes, Qianqian understands." β
"It's good to understand. You must know that Dad is also thinking about you, and when Dad gets old in the future, all the QiΔ is not yours. "Knowing that Qianqian listened, the haze in Yi Hongyuan's eyes dissipated." Okay, you're tired after attending the palace banquet, so go back to your room and rest. β
"Yes." Today's events were difficult to digest for a while, and she bowed with a heavy heart.
Xiahou Yichen, Xiahou Yichen, it's really not ordinary to put someone next to you. But you have a good plan, and this master has also had a wall ladder. If the darkness does not work, the light will come. Thinking about his own arrangement, Yi Hongyuan was so proud.
"Miss, what are the arrangements for today's holiday?" Lan Yu came over with ginseng soup and asked with a happy smile. Although her young lady is not a director, she is a princess after all, and she still has to ask for her opinion during the festival in the house.
Lin Xiaoyou smiled, propped up his head with his left hand, held a spoon in his right hand and kept stirring the ginseng soup in the bowl, and said absentmindedly: "Isn't there Concubine Su, how good it is to be an idler." β
Seeing that her expression was wrong, Lan Yu said with concern: "Miss, what's on your mind?" β
Lin Xiaoyou frowned and shook his head, suddenly understanding Xiahou Yichen's mood at this moment. The people closest to me are not around, so what does it mean to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival alone.
"Xiaoyu, Xiaoyu." Turning his head, he saw Gu Ruoyao's figure running in from afar.
Seeing her panting and smiling expression, Lin Xiaoyou really couldn't figure out what she was happy about. "What's so good about running in such a hurry? Sister Ruoyao. β
"See Lady Sea Ice." Lan Yu leaned over and saluted.
Gu Ruoyao lay on the table breathlessly and waved her hand, relieving herself for a while before breathing a sigh of relief. "Xiaoyu, the street is so lively today, but it's a pity that you didn't make it to the palace banquet. However, there is a fireworks festival at night, and it will be more lively than during the day, so I'm so lucky, let's go together in the evening. β
Lin Xiaoyou was stunned, "Isn't there a family banquet at night?" β
"What kind of family banquet, Xiahou Yichen is just a Mid-Autumn Festival, don't you know? It's all people in the house who gather in private, so it's better for us to watch the fireworks together and join in the fun. Gu Ruoyao said and leaned over, pulled Lin Xiaoyou's arm with a smile and said coquettishly: "Xiaoyou, you can accompany me." I want to go see the fireworks, but I finally came once, and you didn't accompany me. β
"Is it really that lively and fun?"
Gu Ruoyao hurriedly nodded and said, "Yes, yes, you'll know when you go." β
Will the senior brother participate in the fireworks festival? Thinking of this, Lin Xiaoyou nodded and said, "Okay, then let's go together." β
"Great, then I'll go back and get ready. It's getting late, so you'd better hurry up and prepare. Hearing that she agreed to go together, Gu Ruoyao almost jumped up.
"What's there to prepare for a firework?" Lin Xiaoyou wondered.
Gu Ruoyao raised her eyebrows, "Of course I'm ready, going out in our style will rob the brilliance of the fireworks, it's best to keep a low profile in men's clothing, remember." β
Listening to Gu Ruoyao's words, Lin Xiaoyu was speechless for a while. It's not a loss to be the fiancΓ©e of Brother Leng, and even narcissism is a common hobby, which can't help but make her a little suspicious if narcissism is contagious? Was that infected by Brother Leng to Sister Ruoyao, or was Sister Ruoyao infected by Brother Leng? It's really something to think about.
As soon as it was dark, Gu Ruoyao couldn't wait to urge her to go out quickly.
Xiangqing took the cloak and said, "Put on the cloak, princess, don't get cold when you go out." β
"What kind of cloak are you wearing, don't worry, I'm here to guarantee that it's okay, let's go." Gu Ruoyao said, pulled Lin Xiaoyou and ran to the back door.
The palace is located in the most prosperous location, and if you slip out of the back door, you will walk up to ten meters to the lively street. The two dressed as men, and walked directly to the street without even using a carriage.
The streets are bustling with people. Because of the holidays, there are more people going out than usual. The two shuttled through the crowd, looking east and west, which was also fresh and unusual. The two of them were dazzled, and their excitement was rising all the way, which could really be described as fun.
"Childe, it's really lively today." I don't know how long it took, and a familiar voice came from around him, although the street was noisy, Lin Xiaoyou still heard who it was.
Son? Lin Xiaoyou frowned slightly, didn't she always like Xiahou Yichen? How could she settle for the next best thing to let someone else accompany her shopping? Curiosity made Lin Xiaoyou turn around, and his delicate face was full of smiles: "Miss Lin, I really happened to meet you here." β
The person who came was none other than Lin Qingyue. As he spoke, he swept his eyes and was trying to see who would accompany Lin Qingyue to go shopping. When he saw it, he suddenly exclaimed, "Xiahou Yichen." β
He was dressed in a silver and red brocade robe, wearing a white jade crown, and quietly accompanied Lin Qingyue. Seeing Lin Xiaoyou looking at him, he glanced at Lin Xiaoyou proudly, and the corners of his mouth were dyed with a little smile: "Don't you know this king?" β
Listening to her voice, Gu Ruoyao came back to her senses from the stall, and looked at Xiahou Yichen in front of her, whose jaw also dropped all over the ground, "You, if you don't accompany Xiaoyou, forget it, you actually accompany a wild woman here?" Her fiery temper stepped forward and began to accuse without words.
"Why are you yelling, be careful that the prince slaughters you." Lin Qingyue recognized Lin Xiaoyu, scolded nervously, and then looked around, as if she was afraid that others would notice and rob her baby.
It's true that the street is too ostentatious, but fortunately others don't pay much attention. Lin Xiaoyou pulled Gu Ruoyao and said, "Let's go." β
"What are you going to go, aren't you angry at all?" Gu Ruoyao looked more excited than she was in a grudge of unfairness.
Angry? How could it be, she also specifically asked Xiahou Yichen to help him and ask him to confuse Lin Qingyue with a beautiful man's trick! It's just that he really did it now, why is she awkward in her heart? even felt that his deliberately dressed outfit was extremely ugly. Before, he asked her if she wanted to watch a good show, is this the best show? Lin Xiaoyou was secretly pondering in his heart.
"I'm messing around, be careful that my son is not welcome." Xiahou Yichen's grinning expression was not joking at all.
You are welcome? Gu Ruoyao stepped forward and said angrily: "Okay, I want to see how you are polite." β
Personally felt that Xiahou Yichen spoke out to defend her, and Lin Qingyue was extremely proud in her heart. Let's just say, the prince will like her, but he just lacked the opportunity to get along with her before. If I knew it, I wouldn't have looked for Lin Xiaoyou, and I was blackmailed more than 10,000 taels of silver in vain. Thinking of this, she stepped forward with a small face held high, and said provocatively and domineeringly: "Sister Xiaoyu, you won't have to worry about Miss Ben's affairs in the future, I won't worry about you during the festival today, so as not to disturb my Yaxing who is shopping with the prince." β
"Who doesn't care about whom, where did you get out of the wild girl, and you dare to play tricks in front of us. hooking up with other people's husbands like this without knowing how to be polite and shameless must have been sneaked out of the front building. Gu Ruoyao retorted with a smile.
Hua Manlou is the largest green building in Dragon Studios, hearing her compare herself to a woman in a green building, Lin Qingyue was suddenly angry and gritted her teeth: "You ...... I'm not, I'm ....... β
Before the words were finished, without waiting for Lin Qingyue's reaction, Gu Ruoyao grabbed the conversation, "Oh, it's not Huamanlou, it's Cui Yuanju, Baihua Pavilion, Qunfang Courtyard, or Tibetan Fragrance Pavilion?" Crackling in one breath, he even said and reported a series of names of Qinglou.
This speed even Lin Xiaoyu was dumbfounded.
"Presumptuous, I'm the eldest lady of Shangshu Mansion." Lin Qingyue's face was flushed with anger, and she was simply insulting her by comparing herself to a group of lowly Qinglou women.
"The Qinglou woman is beautiful and talented, we are praising you." The fire was burning, and Lin Xiaoyou didn't forget to add oil.
"You...... Son...... They all bullied me. I can't say it alone, Lin Qingyue had tears in her eyes, and she pitifully began to move the rescuers. The prince has just defended himself, and he will definitely help her.
Xiahou Yichen stood quietly to the side, listening to what he had just said, and a strange smile flashed in his eyes. He comforted Lin Qingyue softly, turned his head and pretended to be unhappy and said: "You guys are simply unreasonable, don't say that Yue'er is the pearl of Lin Mansion's palm, even if she is really what you say, this son will not care." β
When the words fell, Lin Xiaoyou and Gu Ruoyao glanced at each other, and couldn't help but burst into a burst of crisp laughter. Xiahou Yichen's words seemed to be defending Lin Qingyue, but in fact they slandered her in disguise.
"Oh, you ......" Lin Qingyue stomped her feet and ran away in shame. Damn Lin Xiaoyou, where is she better than herself, everyone helps her.
Gu Ruoyao waved her hand proudly, "Go slowly, don't send it." β
"Everyone has run away, don't chase after it." Lin Xiaoyu glanced at Xiahou Yichen, and pulled Gu Ruoyao to leave.
Xiahou Yichen smiled slightly, took half a step back, lowered his head and made way of the way. Then he turned around and chased in the direction of Lin Qingyue.
Seeing his figure disappear into the crowd, Gu Ruoyao unwillingly touched Lin Xiaoyou's forehead and said, "Xiaoyou, you're not sick and confused." Finally let Lin Qingyue go, and she also took the initiative to push Xiahou Yichen out.
"Let's go, or we'll delay the fireworks to start." Lin Xiaoyou didn't care much, and pulled her along the crowd all the way to play.
