Chapter 54: A Top Two
"Bring the flower box. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info "Mu Qinyi commanded the quail, his eyes were slightly raised, and the steward knew that the quail was Mu Qinyi's personal person, so he said diligently, "It's okay for the old slave to go." β
Quail smiled and said, "Don't bother Steward Zhou, I'll be back immediately." β
Sure enough, it was a gust of wind, and the quail came back with the big flower box, which was made of cedar wood, very light, and very well sealed, and the only palm-sized hole was covered with a black cloth, and it was inevitable that you could not see it when you drew the flowers.
Mu Qinyi stretched out his hand and groped for one at random, and everyone stared at this fragrant caryophyllus that shouldn't have appeared, no, Cui Rong had one there, the fifth princess had one, how could there be a third one?
The corners of Mu Qinyi's mouth raised slightly, and he casually smoked another one, and it was another fragrant caryophyllus, Shen Ke immediately stood up, saluted Mu Qinyi, agreed, and grabbed several flowers at once, all of them were fragrant caryophyllus, and said with a smile: "It turned out that this flower box was tampered with, it seems that Cui Gongzi and the fifth princess are not a godsend, but this artificial calculation." β
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes looked at Cui Rong seemed to be a little different, everyone knew that Cui Rong loved beauty, and the fifth princess was born delicate and moving, it was hard to guarantee that it was not him Cui Rong who had a lustful heart and deliberately made a hindrance.
Mu Chengyao said: "The flowers in this flower box have always been taken care of by the Zhou steward next to the prince, is it possible, can anyone still do things under the eyes of the prince?"
"Ah," Mu Chenghuang pretended to be surprised, "I thought that the flowers here were put in by a florist, but it turned out that Steward Zhou took care of it himself, the Fourth Emperor Sister didn't say it, Chenghuang didn't know it, the Fourth Emperor Sister was really observant." The meaning of this sentence clearly pointed to Mu Chengyao's suspicion.
Mu Chengyao turned his head: "Even if someone moves her hands and feet, how can you start to investigate?" Anyway, there is no evidence left, she can be clean, and Prince Su will not sweep everyone's interest just to put a few more flowers in this flower box.
Cui Rong's face turned red, but he still insisted and said: "There are no extra seats in this banquet, and the fifth princess has been standing, so it will inevitably be ......." β
"There are no seats? Who says there are no seats?" Before Cui Rong finished speaking, Mu Chenghuang walked directly to an empty desk beside Mu Qinyi, this desk was relatively low, as high as the wooden low coffee table that Mu Qinyi was sitting on, because Mu Qinyi's legs and feet were inconvenient, if he sat cross-legged on the pier like everyone else, the blood would not circulate, and it would be very laborious to stand up and sit down, so he did not sit on the ground like everyone else, but sat on a knee-high wooden table, and this desk was intended to be used to put a Boshan incense burner, but the quail had not yet been brought over.
Mu Chenghuang only looked at the low coffee table at a similar height to Mu Qinyi's sitting, so he sat down and said to Mu Chengyao: "I think this position is very good." β
Mu Chengyao's face changed slightly, and he said without a trace: "Didn't Steward Zhou just say that the prince has inconvenient legs and feet, and he wants to sit alone? β
Seeing this, Lord Yunxi immediately said: "That is, even if this box is mixed with fragrant caryophyllus, but I don't see that others have drawn it, it seems that it is really fate." "Lord Yunxi is destined to say these words very slowly, in fact, she and Mu Chenghuang have no festivals, but seeing Mu Chenghuang can sit beside Mu Qinyi in a grand manner, she is unhappy in her heart, even if the two are uncles and nephews, but she does not allow any female animal to contact the man in her heart too much.
Lin Guanlan looked at the excitement, and deliberately or unintentionally said to Shen Ke, who had already returned to the seat: "Isn't Miss Shen friendly with the fifth princess? Now that the fifth princess is unwilling to sit with the prodigal, why doesn't Miss Shen go?"
Shen Ke naturally had this idea, but she naturally didn't want to leave because she wanted to sit with Cui Rong, but in comparison, she didn't want to get too close to Lin Guanlan, Lin Guanlan's malice towards her was simply innate, and it had reached the point of reaching the peak.
Shen Ke sneered and replied: "Lin Gongzi really has a good idea. After that, he got up and said to Mu Chengyao: "The fourth princess remembered wrong, I drew this fragrant caryophyllus." After speaking, he took off the peach blossom on his head in the direction of Mu Chenghuang, gently put the peach blossom in the palm of Mu Chenghuang's hand, and pulled out the fragrant caryophyllus in Mu Chenghuang's hand, and said with a smile: "I just borrowed the peach blossom of the fifth princess and played with it for a long time, and now it's time to pay it back." Then he walked towards Cui Rong's seat, sat down smoothly, without squinting, Mu Chenghuang knew that Shen Ke was actually angry with Lin Guanlan, so he would sit down, he wanted to stop it, but he thought that Shen Ke was as simple as pinching Cui Rong to death, so he just nodded to Shen Ke.
As for Cui Rong, he originally took a fancy to Shen Ke and Mu Chenghuang, a pair of beauties, especially after the fourth princess Mu Chengyao praised him for a storm, and said that his fifth emperor sister likes a man like himself who has poetry and books in his belly, and his inner desire for Mu Chenghuang is even stronger, don't say that Mu Chenghuang's princess identity, just say that Mu Chenghuang's gorgeous and lovely appearance is a must, Shen Ke He also thought about it, but helplessly Shen Ke and the Lin family's marriage has long been rumored, although he is not afraid to provoke a person who has made a marriage, but the other party is the old lady of the Lin family after all, and Master Lin is the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and his uncle does not look up and look down, always save some face for each other.
But now that this Shen Damei took the initiative to sit down, Cui Rong has no reason to refuse.
Mu Chengyao didn't want to let go of Mu Chenghuang, she smiled coquettishly, and said, "Isn't this the eldest girl of the Shen family?" I heard that the Shen and Lin families have long had a marriage contract, and the eldest girl of the Shen family is sticking to Cui Gongzi like this, so she is not afraid that the eldest son of the Lin family will be angry?"
Lin Guanlan seemed to be generous and said: "I don't mind at all. Of course he doesn't mind, the people of the Shen family, the farther away from him, the better.
Mu Chenghuang thought that after Shen Ke drew the peach blossom, another person wearing a peach blossom did not appear for a long time, and as a result, Lin Guanlan inexplicably sat at the same table with Shen Ke, she looked at Mu Qinyi beside her with her spare eyes, no matter how she thought about it, it seemed that Mu Qinyi was building a bridge between them.
Mu Chenghuang thought about this, so he weakly pinched the peach blossom in his hand and asked, "This is arranged by the imperial uncle?"
Mu Qinyi shrugged his shoulders noncommittally and said, "It's probably arranged by God." β
Only after believing in him can there be a ghost, and the person who can casually throw a bunch of incense caryophyllum into the flower box can naturally pull the red line for the two of them casually, but this red line, both of them don't seem to appreciate it, since Shen Ke has already sat down, Mu Chenghuang has nothing to say.
Originally, they were all waiting to start, but Lin Guanlan suddenly said with a flamboyant tongue: "Since this fragrant caryophyllus and peach blossom have made the wrong person, it stands to reason that I should be at the same table with the fifth princess." After speaking, he stroked the futon next to him and said, "Fifth princess, please." β
Mu Qinyi glanced at him and said, "This king thinks that it is very good for the fifth princess to sit here." β
"Lord Wang," Lord Yunxi stood up and came, "The fifth princess sits on the table where the incense burner is placed, what kind of system does it become?" β
Mu Chenghuang was shocked and asked Mu Qinyi quietly: "This is the incense burner?"
"Let you read more books on weekdays. Mu Qinyi quietly replied, and then just raised his head in response, "It's really inappropriate." β
Lord Yunxi breathed a sigh of relief, but Mu Qin Yi said again: "Quail, go and get a seat like this king." Fu looked down at Mu Chenghuang, and said helplessly, "In that case, you should form a group with this king." β
Lin Guanlan grinned and said, "What about me? This rule is to be in teams of two." β
Mu Qin glanced at him and said, "You are a top two." β
Lin Guanlan's shoulders trembled slightly, he really had the opposite sex and inhumanity Prince Su, he turned his head again, but inadvertently glanced at Shen Ke and Cui Rong opposite, Cui Rong made a look of hushing and asking for warmth, poured tea and wine for Shen Ke, and explained one by one which fruit in the fruit bowl was the most delicious in this case, and he almost fed Shen Ke with his own hands, Shen Ke was also indifferent, pampered and not surprised, Lin Guanlan snorted coldly in his heart, maybe how much Shen Ke enjoyed it in his heart.
Shen Ke didn't like people like Cui Rong, but she took the initiative to sit over, not entirely for Mu Chenghuang, she looked at Lin Guanlan with her spare eyes, and she couldn't tell Mu Chenghuang many things one by one, she couldn't say that she was forced by her stepmother to marry a lame cousin in the clan in Jiangnan, and she really had no choice, so she shirked the previous marriage contract with the Lin family, and then entered Beijing, her appearance was so beautiful, it was said that the eldest daughter of the Shen family went to the capital to do business with the palace, but in fact, she jumped from one fire pit to another fire pitγ
The game of Qushui Liuyu began, a log tray flowed down the water, first stopped in front of the lord of Yunxi, and suddenly turned around, and shook towards the seat of the British prince Li Su and the eldest princess, and swirled in front of their desk, there was a sound of coaxing around, Li Su stepped forward and picked up the tray from the stream, and the servant waiting next to him immediately handed over a bamboo tube, which was full of bamboo sticks.
Li Su smiled warmly at the eldest princess: "You can smoke it." β
The eldest princess drew the title of Qiu Ju, and Mu Chenghuang listened to it and muttered to herself: "Ah, this question is not very good, since ancient times, autumn has been sad and lonely," and then looked at Mu Qin Yi and said, "And now it is obviously early summer, why is there a question of Qiu Ju in the bamboo tube?" Mu Qin Yi was silent, and Mu Chenghuang said to himself, "But it doesn't matter, even if a loving person writes ruthless things, he will write warm and moving, not to mention, the eldest royal sister and the prince of England are both wonderful people." β
The quail just snickered when he heard it, it turned out that these five princesses would also have broken thoughts, thinking that their own prince hated his own mouth the most, and looked down on his own prince, but what happened when he saw Mu Qinyi's face full of enjoyment?
