97. Chapter 97
There is still a lingering scent of incense in the air.
Shi Fan stood in place in a daze, his mind blank. After a while, his eyes moved, and he showed an expression that seemed to be crying rather than laughing.
He didn't even know how he got to the door, and he was stepping on the stirrups in a daze, not wanting to step on the air.
Fortunately, the little servant noticed at a glance that his master's unruly appearance was unyielding, and he kept his attention, and quickly supported him, and said worriedly, "Shizi? ”
Shi Fan wiped his face, with a sincere tiredness, he stepped on the stirrup with one foot, pulled the saddle with one hand and was about to turn over on the horse, just halfway up, suddenly paused in mid-air.
On the road not far away, a black horse with a clear mind, a man on horseback on the mountain, the golden sunlight reflected a cold light on his dark light armor, forcing people to dare not look directly.
When Xiao Jing's indifferent gaze swept over, Shi Fan's back stiffened.
Xiao Jing casually retracted his gaze, turned over and dismounted, and the porter of the Zhenguo Mansion hurriedly took the horsewhip with both hands.
Shi Fan heard his deep voice and asked, "Is your uncle here?" ”
"Uncle just came back half an hour ago." The porter was busy replying.
Shi Fankong couldn't help but look at his back as if he disappeared behind the door, and clenched his fists. He remembered that day, he had looked at his ship like this, and picked up the injured Yaoguang.
##
Xiao Jing's visit to the house this time was to discuss the replacement of the naval armament with Jiang Shaoqin, Jiang Shaoqin was in the household department, and the household department was in charge of the treasury, and by the way, he sent an invitation to the crown gift.
As soon as he decided to abandon the marriage of the Shi family, he came to the door, which made the county lord of Shuyang feel very delicate, and said a few words in his spirits, and then asked Jiang Shaoqin to entertain him.
As for Jiang Yaoguang, he had already returned to the courtyard, and the county lord of Shuyang was very happy. can remember that Xiao Jing is going to win the crown in a few days, and King Wucheng has not leaked out the slightest rumor of his marriage, and his heart is a little panicked.
The panicked lord of Shuyang began to collect information about school-age teenagers in the capital, and before she could pick a suitable one, the day of Xiao Jingguanli came.
With the momentum of Wucheng Palace, on this day, the crown in front of the palace was gathered, and all the princes and nobles who got the invitation were present, and the Jiang family was naturally among them.
The Wucheng Mansion is the grandfather and grandson, there is no hostess at all, and the only granddaughter, the county lord of Xuanning, is not in Beijing with the county horse. Fortunately, the niece-in-law Princess Rong is a reliable one, and the wife is entertained by Princess Rong.
And the lady show is a few girls from Prince Yi's mansion to entertain, and the girls in the first emperor's vein have all left the cabinet, even if they are not out of the cabinet, they can't expect the princess to come and entertain guests with a smile.
After Jiang Yaoguang separated from the county lord of Shuyang, she walked in with Xiao Yueying from Prince Yi's mansion, Jiang Yaoguang had some friendship with her, and laughed all the way.
Xiao Yueying asked, "Is Yaoguang going to the lotus pond to enjoy the lotus, or is he going to the New Moon Zhai to watch the trick?" ”
"I'm staring at my pool lotus every day at home, but I haven't seen a trick for a while. Is it the outside troupe or the servants in the palace? ”
Xiao Yueying said, "I was invited from outside, I only came from the south recently, I watched a little bit before, and it is very different from the usual tricks in our capital, you can see it." ”
Jiang Yaoguang was aroused.
The troupe invited by Wucheng Wangfu is really different, she has never seen many tricks, Jiang Yaoguang watched it with relish. If you don't want to, someone is going to ruin the fun.
"How is it loquat dew, I obviously want almond dew." The little girl's voice was clear and bright.
It wasn't just Jiang Yaoguang who followed the prestige, looking at Xiao Yueying's embarrassed face, his brows twisted slightly.
"That's my mistake," Xiao Yueying smiled good-naturedly, "I'll ask them to make you a bowl again." ”
The little girl pouted, "Even loquat dew almond syrup can be mistaken!" Do you entertain people? ”
Jiang Yao glanced at the melon and fruit snacks on the table, this is to find fault.
Xiao Yueying stood there at a loss, "It's mine, it's not." ”
"Isn't what Miss Hua Liu is talking about loquat dew!" Jiang Yaoguang touched his earlobe with a smile, "I heard it." "Go to the banquet, put aside what the host has prepared, and order freshly made desserts, such a willful little girl, she pays attention to it distractedly.
The sixth girl of the Hua family, Hua Zhongling stomped her feet, "What I want is obviously almond dew." ”
The little girl stomped her feet and was coquettish, but she was not good at this, Jiang Yaoguang smiled, "Then ask others again, did they all hear it wrong!" Her smiling eyes swept around.
Jiang Yaoguang has a good reputation, and the Jiang family is gaining momentum again, and someone in the girl who watched from the wall before Mingzhe said, "I remember ......"
"Obviously, you made a mistake, what you thought about was almond dew, but what blurted out was loquat dew." Hua Zhongyu lightly nodded his sister's forehead, stood up and gave Xiao Yueying a little blessing, "I'll make amends for Zhong Ling, Zhong Ling is spoiled by us, I hope Miss Xiao won't be like her." ”
Xiao Yueying shook her hand and said, "I will also have things that I remember, what I think about in my head is one thing, but blurting out is another, and I think it's right." ”
Zhong Lingyu smiled, "I sometimes make this mistake. He smiled at Jiang Yaoguang again.
Jiang Yaoguang smiled, turned his head and continued to stand in the stands.
Hua Zhongyu looked at her without a trace, with a snowy skin and jade face, which was really enviable.
Xiao Yueying sat down next to Jiang Yaoguang, leaned over and whispered, "Thank you." "She has a clumsy mouth, if Jiang Yaoguang hadn't cleared the siege, she would have had to suffer this dumb loss.
Jiang Yao glanced at her, "You're just too sexy." ”
"Take a step back and open the sky, and today I am half of the host, I always want to be peaceful, besides," Xiao Yueying glanced over there, "In the end, it is from the mother clan of Cousin Jing." ”
Hua Zhong sat there with a puff of energy, even if the kitchen immediately made almond dew, he didn't show his face.
There were no female dependents in the Wucheng Palace, so the grandmother mentioned that they would be helped by the Hua family, which not only brought the relationship between the two governments closer, but also allowed her to show her face in front of the nobles in Beijing. The Hua family is Xiao Jing's mother, and it makes sense to come over to help, but Xiao Jing refused without any room for negotiation.
They didn't dare to confront Xiao Jing's temper, so they naturally became angry and replaced their Prince Yi's mansion.
Although Prince Yi's Mansion is the Prince's Mansion, Prince Lao Yi is only the uncle of the first emperor, because he helped the first emperor in distress back then, so he has this creation. In fact, this vein has a very long relationship with the imperial family, and there have been no figures in these generations, and the unstable foothold can only rely on the emperor's pity. Especially after King Wucheng returned to the temple, the old prince even made Zongzheng a virtuous position.
Hua Zhongyu glanced at her with disgust and said softly, "Don't make trouble, and don't look at what the occasion is today!" If something happens, grandmother will blame you. ”
Hua Zhongling glared at her, and finally relented.
The two are cousins, the only two daughters of the Hua family, and they have been competing for favor since they were children, and their relationship has always been cold.
Xiao Yueying sat for a while and was called away, she was a busy person today.
After stopping, Jiang Yaoguang looked at the stands intently, looked at it, and suddenly felt that the surroundings were quiet, and even the laughter was gone.
Jiang Yaoguang, who was surprised, looked back and found the focus of everyone's attention.
It turned out to be Miao Xinyu, since Miao Yi's incident, she hadn't seen her, but she had heard of the Taining Eldest Princess's Mansion and the Miao family's chicken flying dog jumping.
The reason is that Miao Yi is ashamed to see people hiding at home all day long, drunk and dreaming of death, the children of the Miao family are ashamed to go out because of Miao Yi's affairs, and Miao Yi's cousin's marriage is about to be blown up, and the second room of the Miao family has also made trouble in the eldest princess's mansion.
Miao Ma moved on his son under the pressure of his family, and as a result, he quarreled with the eldest princess of Taining, and the horse moved back to the Miao family's old house in a fit of anger.
This is not the end, Miao Juma actually has an outer room that has been raised for four years, and a son, counting the time, almost conceived within 100 days of the first emperor.
The enraged eldest princess Taining killed the mother and son, and seriously injured the horse, which was very secret, but somehow was poked out by the imperial history.
Just raising the outer room, the emperor may be able to tolerate Miao Yuma, after all, he himself is a greedy and lustful person, and the eldest princess Taining is the sister of King Duan, compared to other eldest princesses, she is not very popular with the emperor. But the emperor is a filial son, here his father's bones are not cold, but Miao Horse was turned over by the red waves in the outer room and made out his son, which is unbearable.
Miao Yuma's official position was pushed to the end, and the rest of the Miao family was also wrongly punished and punished. For a while, the eldest princess of Taining ran to the palace to intercede when she saw Tian'er.
The Miao family is so miserable, Jiang Yaoguang is actually a little suspicious that her family is doing something behind her back, she also went to ask her parents and brother, but they all have unfathomable appearances.
When these things happened at home, Miao Xinyu actually dared to appear in front of people, and this courage really shocked the jaws of a group of people.
Xiao Yueying coughed embarrassedly, Miao Xinyu was uninvited, and there were no elders with him, but he didn't stop the reason for not being allowed to enter, which was too ugly.
Miao Xinyu found a seat and sat down, ignoring all the gazes cast on her as if they were nothing. There was no one to talk to her around, after all, they didn't know each other. Miao Xinyu is nineteen years old, and the group of people who are compatible with her are all out of the cabinet, but she is still in the boudoir, and the girls present at the moment really have no friendship with her.
Jiang Yaoguang retracted his gaze carelessly, holding his face to watch the trick.
Miao Xinyu had a sneer on the corner of her mouth.
After a while, Jiang Yaoguang, who had unconsciously drunk several cups of tea, stood up, and when someone else asked, she said in a low voice, "I'll go change clothes." ”
Dan Mei came up in a few clusters, and two other maids from the Wucheng Palace's mansion stepped forward to lead the way.
Jiang Yaoguang looked at one of them as a little familiar, thought about it and laughed, "Didn't you serve the pen and ink on the boat that day?" Green bamboo? ”
Qingzhu bent down and smiled, "The girl has a really good memory, she has only seen one time, and she remembers the slave." ”
"It's only been a month, and if I can't remember it, it will be miserable." Jiang Yaoguang said, the status of the maid who serves the pen and ink is not low, but now she is here to entertain guests? Jiang Yaoguang is a little strange, but if she is punished, wouldn't it be a poke at people's hearts if she asks.
Qingzhu said with a smile, "Miss Xiao is not very familiar with the house, so the prince sent a slave to give Miss Xiao a beating." ”
Jiang Yaoguang smiled, Wucheng Wangfu is really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, such a little girl is exquisite.
Along the way, Qingzhu introduced the surrounding scenery to her in order to relieve the boredom, and she has also been to Wucheng Wangfu a few times, but in her mouth, it is not interesting, talent!
When she came out of the clean room, Qingzhu said, "If the girl doesn't want to go back to the play, the slave will accompany you around?" ”
Jiang Yaoguang felt that she was talking interestingly, but after thinking about it, she said, "Forget it, I'd better go back and watch the trick." "Today is a day like this, she should settle down and not make a mess.
Qingzhu didn't persuade much, but said with a smile, "Then next time the girl comes to play, the slave will serve you again." ”
"I'm afraid that Cousin Jing will dislike me for being overkill." Before the words fell, the smile on Jiang Yaoguang's face condensed, and Gayin Miao was walking towards him.
The girl who was full of energy in the past now brings out a gloom between her eyebrows and eyes, and the years are really a pig-killing knife.
Miao Xinyu saw a trace of surprise flash in her eyes, as if she didn't expect to meet her, and then her surprise turned into hatred. Her brow furrowed, and she didn't squint.
Qingzhu's expression was slightly restrained, and he stood on Jiang Yaoguang's side step by step. Even the Dan Mei brought by Jiang Yaoguang was also contemplative and breathless.
Just as he was about to pass by, Miao Xinyu's footsteps suddenly stopped.
She turned her head and stared at Jiang Yao's face with a vicious expression, and sneered, her tone full of malice, "What method did your cousin Jing use to give you the antidote that day, did he hurt you well!" ”
Jiang Yaoguang was stunned for a moment, and then she realized the meaning of her words, and instantly became so angry that her face turned white, and she raised her hand to slap her, "Shameless!" ”
The defenseless Miao Xinyu was beaten up, and after being stunned for a moment, anger surged up, and he raised his hand, "You dare to ......"
Before she finished speaking, she was pulled aside by several maids, far away from Jiang Yaoguang.
