Chapter 171: Caught in a Trap
Seeing Mrs. Xiang who was present, she didn't say anything more, and someone was busy coming forward to play a round. [Full text reading. In addition, the banquet was about to start, so everyone stopped talking, and hugged Mrs. Xiang and walked to the vestibule, talking and laughing all the way.
During the banquet, Shen Liancheng saw Prince Rong. Prince Rong Yu Wenyan also happened to see her, looked at her, and nodded his chin to her. She smiled, then closed her gaze and stopped looking in his.
This scene was just in the eyes of Li Ji. For a while, Chu Batian's words surged in his mind again.
"Li Shizi is so blessed that he married Mrs. Shen's granddaughter." After Shen Liancheng was asked to leave by his wife, Chu Batian followed Li Ji and told him in front of Wang Chongjing, "It's also a shame that you took a step earlier, otherwise, Mrs. Zun would not be your wife, but Prince Rong." ”
Hearing Chu Batian's words, he was particularly shocked. Prince Rong also beat Shen Liancheng's idea?
"I heard from Brother Shuyuan that Mrs. Xiang fell in love with Mrs. Zun early in the morning, and even the matchmaker invited her. I really don't know, if Mrs. Zun knew that Mrs. Xiang still had such good intentions, would she regret committing herself to you? Ha ha. ”
The strange words and laughter in Chu Batian's monster seemed to be still in his ears. He couldn't help but wonder, what does it mean for the talented Aman to have a divine relationship with Prince Rong? She went to see Prince Rong's biological mother, Mrs. Xiang, so did she already know the good intentions that Mrs. Xiang once had?
"Brother-in-law?" Wang Chongjing saw that Li Ji's expression changed abnormally, so he touched him with his elbow and joked, "What's wrong with you?" Why can't you get drunk before you drink? ”
Li Ji laughed, raised his glass and touched it, and drank it all. "Where do you see I'm drunk?"
"Brother-in-law has a good amount of alcohol." Wang Chongjing poured each other's wine glasses full, and wanted to drink with them again.
Li Ji was absent-minded, but drank a lot of wine.
"Li Shizi has a good amount of wine!" Someone came over and toasted him.
and a second, and a third, and a fourth...... Most of them are unknown to Li Ji. Li Ji felt funny, in the past, when he participated in this kind of banquet, he did not attend as the main guest, and generally there would be no strangers to talk to him, let alone toast his own wine. This time is an exception.
This time, it was the first time he brought his wife to a banquet, so it was naturally different. His wife, but the most beloved granddaughter of the Son of Heaven, the niece and daughter of the princess, and the person who played with the Son of Heaven to the big, how noble and special is her identity? And he is her husband. These people, it makes sense to be close to him.
However, this glass after glass of wine is a little bitter.
The banquet was staggered, and the banquet was hearty.
Shen Liancheng looked at Li Ji and saw that he was as popular as the stars holding the moon, and he couldn't help but frown. And Shen Li'er, on her side, also chatted warmly with a few noble girls, and she was full of interest.
She thought about it for a while, and instructed Qingling, who was waiting behind her, to say, "You go over, let Ah Ze remind the prince of the world, so that he can't drink anymore." ”
"Yes." Qingling also looked worried, and went in response.
At this time, Xiang Shuyuan and his wife Tang came to toast the female dependents.
After a polite meeting, Xiang Shuyuan walked to Shen Liancheng, raised a glass to her, and said, "Madame is destined for me, and I respect Madame." ”
Hearing this, Shen Liancheng felt inexplicable.
"Madame forgot?" Xiang Shuyuan laughed and reminded in a low voice, "Tonggu Bookstore, that book "Matriarchal Clan". ”
Shen Liancheng's pupils widened, "You are the new owner of Tonggu Bookstore?" ”
Xiang Shuyuan nodded with a smile and said, "You and Chen Guogong are both destined for me. For some reason, he said the words "you and Chen Guogong" so loudly that the ladies at the table seemed to hear it.
He added: "That day, you and Chen Guogong read my favorite book together at Tonggu Bookstore, which shows that the three of us have the same preferences. ”
"That day, my husband accompanied me to the Tonggu bookstore and read your book, it was me and my husband, it was rude." Shen Liancheng bit the words "my husband", and the women present calmed back their hearts to watch the play.
Xiang Shuyuan was still smiling, but didn't say anything more.
"I heard that Chen Guogong surrendered to my Great Zhou court for the sake of Mrs. Li Shizi. I don't know if it's true or not? At this time, a young woman who was not good-looking suddenly said this sentence to the people on both sides, which was clearly not good.
"You don't look at our Mrs. Li Shizi, who is so beautiful, and has such a precious identity, which man doesn't like it?"
"I heard that Chen Guogong also has true feelings for Mrs. Li Shizi."
“……”
Xiang Shuyuan walked away with the Tang family, leaving a group of female streamers to talk about gossip either explicitly or secretly.
Mrs. Xiang sat in the far away seat, half-squinting at Shen Liancheng's joke.
Looking at the men's table over there who directly poured Li Ji to drink one after another, the female seat here chattered foul words one after another, and the gesture of watching the play to his wife, Shen Liancheng suddenly understood why Xiang's family banquet invited her and Li Ji.
For her, this is tantamount to a feast.
Most of the people who came today were related to the Xiang clan, most of them wanted to see her Shen family's jokes, and most of them wanted to embarrass her and her husband. So...... You can't blame her.
Wudi, she smiled sarcastically, slowly poured herself a glass of wine, got up, and walked generously towards the most honorable position in the men's seat.
There, Prince Rong Yu Wenyan was sitting.
Although his face was calm, as if he was unaware of the current discordant atmosphere, and he couldn't tell if he was complicit, Shen Liancheng was still determined to attack him.
She stepped forward, first saluted him, and then toasted him, saying: "Yingchuan Moon is full of water, the prince is blessed and sheltered, and the bride is lucky not to die." This glass of wine is toasted to the prince to show the bride's heart. ”
Everyone's eyes were on her, and they all looked like they didn't know why.
Li Ji was drunk, although his mind was clear, he couldn't hear what Shen Liancheng was talking to Prince Rong.
And when Shen Liancheng said this, Prince Rong Yu Wenyan smiled and stood up, "That day, fortunately, Mrs. found out that the moon was full and the building was walking early, and this king did not have his life to bury the sea of fire, so this king should respect you." After that, he raised his glass and touched each other, then tilted his head, covered his face with wide sleeves, and drank all the wine in the cup.
Shen Liancheng didn't accept this glass of wine, and said with a smile: "I'm afraid that the prince is mistaken." The one who saved the prince's life was Chen Guogong. ”
"Chen Guogong saved this king from the fire regardless of the danger of his life, and this king is indeed very grateful to him." Yu Wenyan secretly felt strange, Shen Liancheng was obviously evasive about the topic of Chen Guogong, why did he bring it up on his own now?
"No wonder the prince wants to take Chen Guogong for his own use three times and twice! They all alarmed the Son of Heaven. Shen Liancheng smiled, and continued, "Grab people with the Son of Heaven, but I don't know what the prince is going to do?" ”
"You ......" Yu Wenyan's heart tightened, lowered his voice, and said coldly: "Don't talk nonsense." (To be continued.) )
