Chapter 150: Private Meeting
Mulan also saw that Yan Jingluo's behavior was abnormal, and she didn't want to care about this idle matter, but she was afraid that Zhao Chonghua would be too straight and would not be able to control her temper and cause some trouble, so she came out with her. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
At this time, the sun had not completely set, and half of the sky was covered with brilliant red glow. There was not a hint of wind, not even the cicadas chirped, only the heat wave that had been stored all day quietly tossed on the ground, scorching the soles of shoes.
Mulan sweated after walking a few steps, but Zhao Chonghua, the person who was most afraid of heat, didn't realize it, staring closely at the figure walking in front, and his steps became more and more urgent.
Seeing that Yan Jingluo turned down the corridor and walked to the depths of the flowers and trees, she stretched out her hand and pulled Mu Lan, "Hurry up." ”
Mulan originally hoped that Yan Jingluo would really come out to change clothes, but the changing place was not in that direction. After leaving the water pavilion, he went straight to the other end, obviously not because he was bored and went out for a walk. had a bad premonition in his heart, so he grabbed Zhao Chonghua with his backhand, "Don't chase it, let her find out how bad it is." ”
"What's wrong?" Zhao Chonghua snorted coldly, "If she dares to do it, I will dare to chase her." ”
With that look and tone, it was clear that Yan Jingluo was going to do something unseemly. Without waiting for Mulan to persuade again, she broke free from her hand and rushed forward.
Mulan was afraid of pulling and shouting to attract attention, so she had to take a few steps to follow.
Out of the corridor, I heard Yan Jingluo's voice coming through the flowers and trees from a distance, faintly, not very clearly, as if she was telling the girl to look at the wind.
Zhao Chonghua looked left and right, and then walked along an inconspicuous path in the direction where the sound came from.
At this juncture, Mulan had no room for hesitation, and made a gesture to tell the girls who were far behind to stop and hide, and lift their skirts to chase Zhao Chonghua.
Zhao Chonghua walked up to a section with branches and leaves, and suddenly squatted down. Hiding under a tall canna plant, he beckoned to Mulan, and pressed his finger to his lips to signal her to silence.
Mulan leaned over, squatted down next to her, and heard someone talking in front of her, "I don't know why the county lord summoned me to come?"
It was a young man's voice, Mulan was slightly familiar when she heard it, and gently plucked the flowers and leaves to look over, only to see Yan Jingluo's back facing this side, and a young man stood at a distance of Zhang Xu, dressed in a bamboo green robe, shrunk his shoulders and bowed his hands, and hung his head respectfully.
She recognized the young man as Du Shunwen at a glance, although she had guessed before, she didn't expect Yan Jingluo to be so bold that she would take advantage of going out to have a banquet and a private meeting with a foreign man.
Zhao Chonghua stared at Yan Jingluo's back, his eyes full of anger. The hand that grabbed the corner of the skirt was clenched tightly, as if it would rush out and beat someone at any moment.
Yan Jingluo'e frowned slightly, looking at the young man who didn't even dare to look at her, and was speechless for a long time.
Xue Qili's injury should have healed a long time ago, but because of a few rounds of nonsense, coupled with the heat of the day, even the fever with suppuration, over and over again, so far there is no good solution. The saint punished him for thinking about it, Zhu Guifei called down the grade, and he didn't dare to indulge him anymore, he stared at it with good eyes every day ~ day, and he couldn't sneak out of the palace if he wanted to.
Yan Jingluo was originally without Xue Qilisheng's hard pull, and Du Shunwen was unlikely to appear on such an occasion. It's just that with the mentality of trying, I asked Bi Shu to inquire. I didn't expect him to be here, saying that he came with those children of the family who were good friends with Xue Qili.
As soon as she thought that this might be the last time she went out before she got married, she couldn't help but have a desire to see him~ . But when she really saw him, she was confused again, and she didn't know why she wanted to see him, and what to tell him when she saw him.
After standing quietly for a long time, Du Shunwen couldn't bear it anymore, coughed awkwardly, and repeated what he said before, "Dare to ask the county lord why he came here?"
"It doesn't matter. Yan Jingluo exhaled softly, her fingers unconsciously fiddling with the belt, "It's just that you saved me, and I haven't thanked you in person, so ......"
At this point, there is no follow-up, and I don't know if I can't say it anymore, or I don't think it's necessary to say it.
Du Shunwen's arched hand never put down, and his voice was still respectful, "The county lord doesn't have to take it to heart, he was bitten by a snake when he was a child, and he has been very afraid of snakes since then. ”
Yan Jingluo didn't believe that he helped her unintentionally, only when he was afraid of offending Xue Qili, he covered up his words, and a smile appeared on the corner of his lips, "I know, I still want to thank you." ”
Du Shunwen said, "Don't dare to be", "If the county lord has no orders, he will retire first." ”
He bowed and stepped back.
Yan Jingluo's brows tightened, and she blurted out, "Do you know that I'm going to get married?"
Du Shunwen paused, raised his head in surprise, glanced at her and lowered his eyes quickly, "Yes, I heard about it, congratulations to the county lord." ”
"You don't have a ...... except 'congratulations' Is there anything you want to say to me?" Yan Jingluo's voice became soft, and it reached her ears from a distance, with a sense of coquettishness.
Zhao Chonghua's cheeks flushed with anger, and he couldn't help but take a sip, "Shameless!"
Mulan covered her mouth and shook her head at her, signaling her to be patient.
Du Shunwen seemed to be aware of it, and the corner of his eye glanced at the slightly swaying flowers and leaves, and replied in his mouth: "Forgive me for my clumsy tongue, I can't say more words of congratulations, and I hope that the county lord will forgive me."
There is a difference between men and women, and it is not good to disturb the county lord again, please let the district retire first. ”
This time, he immediately turned around, took a big stride, and fled as if he were fleeing.
Yan Jingluo let out a "hey", as if she wanted to keep him, but she couldn't shout out. The arm was slightly raised, paused in mid-air, and waited for the figure to disappear behind the flower tree before slowly falling down. The back is smart, and it is indescribably lonely.
Zhu Jin walked over and persuaded in a low voice: "County Lord, go back." ”
"Hmm. Yan Jingluo responded to her senses, only to find that her eyelashes were a little moist.
When she wanted to see Du Shunwen, Zhu Jin and Bi Shu tried hard to dissuade her. She said that as long as she saw him and thanked him in person, she would be able to marry with peace of mind, so she said that she would move the two girls to help her run.
Now that people have seen it, Xie has also said, why is her heart still not declining?
Zhu Jin saw that she was still standing still, so he urged again: "County Lord, let's go back quickly, seeing that the sky is dark, the eldest princess can't see you for a long time, I'm afraid I will send someone to look for you." ”
Yan Jingluo nodded, stared deeply in the direction of Du Shunwen's departure, and then turned to leave.
Estimating that the person had already gone away, Mulan let go of the hand covering Zhao Chonghua's mouth, and beat the squatting leg with her free hand.
Zhao Chonghua was already very angry, and stood up suddenly, "I'll tell my mother to go and ask her to give my second brother a divorce!"
