Emperor Huiping seemed to walk over, said "no courtesy" with a pleasant face, and said: "I heard that the concubine invited someone into the palace today, but it turned out to be an old lady. ”

- He had a relationship with Meng Shu when he was a child, and naturally he also knew Meng Shu's mother.

Mrs. Meng saluted again and said "yes".

Emperor Huiping's gaze moved to Shen Yu's body again, looking at her posture of standing silently with her head down, vaguely remembering the beauty in the old times. He was in a trance and asked, "Is this Miss Shen?" ”

"Shen Fei, the people's daughter, please ask the emperor Sheng'an again." Shen Yu had to salute again.

"That overprint is very interesting." Emperor Huiping spoke with approval, and his eyes kept wandering over Shen Yu. There is a strange stubbornness and attachment in his heart, Meng Shu refused to enter the palace, he couldn't see her, so he made a special trip to wait outside, he had to see her daughter.

Now looking at the fourteen-year-old girl, my heart is sad.

Such a beautiful girl is the child of her and another man, if Meng Shu had married him, would the child of the two be so lovely? After thinking about it for a while, he laughed to himself, straightened the sleeves of his robe, and left without saying a word.

Shen Yan stood there with a bow, feeling inexplicable.

She has a limited understanding of Emperor Huiping, only that he was diligent in government and loved the people when he first ascended the throne, and in addition to the ruthless execution of Prince Zhaoming, he was usually lenient and severe, but did not lose the demeanor of a monarch. However, he was obsessed with Taoism, and spent financial resources to build Taoist temples and favor Taoist priests, which caused criticism.

In Shen Fei's imagination, Emperor Huiping is the respect of the emperor, and he should be strict and noble, high in the clouds, but listening to his tone just now, it seems to have a bit of a homely meaning.

Thinking about it in a mess, he let out a long sigh of relief when he stepped out of the palace.

Outside the moat, the carriages and horses of the Meng family were waiting there. Shen Yu followed Mrs. Meng into the carriage, the carriage walked slowly, and when she lifted the curtain and looked at this majestic imperial city, there were only towering city walls and armored soldiers.

With a wrong look, I suddenly saw a familiar figure riding a horse in front of him, with a golden crown and jade belt, brocade clothes, riding a majestic red lion, and an ink-colored cloak on his head, which made him even more heroic and vigorous. Isn't that person Xu Yan who I haven't seen for a few days?

Shen Yan was overjoyed, and out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of Mrs. Meng who was looking at her, and somehow, subconsciously lowered the curtain and cut off the line of sight.

Xu Yan walked very fast, and arrived at the Meng family's carriage in just a short time. His gaze fell on the carriage, and he did not move a bit, as if he wanted to penetrate the soft curtain and take a look at the delicate people in the carriage.

The capital is not as good as Luling, the rules of the Shen family are relaxed when they are in Luling City, if they meet Shen Yu on the road, Xu Yan can come forward without scruples to talk and tease her. But now that Shen Yu is sitting in the carriage of the Meng family, even though Shen Ping and his wife don't care about their daughter's appearance, the Meng family may not care.

He, a young man who had nothing to do with the Meng family, couldn't go over to talk to Mrs. Meng in the car, so he could only watch him pass by and force himself to suppress the urge to lift the car curtain.

Gu An, who was still behind, was clever, and when he looked at Xu Yan's straight back, he guessed the entanglement in his master's heart, so he moved and held down the saber hanging from his waist. This road was not narrow, he leaned towards the Meng family's chariot and horse, and when he staggered past the horse, he deliberately pressed the hilt of the sword, and the tip of the sword hit the horse's head lightly or heavily.

The poor horse, which was walking leisurely with its four hooves in its arms, was struck suddenly, and he couldn't help but neigh, and went to the side to hide.

The coachman was not surprised by this change, and was shocked.

Although he didn't recognize Xu Yan, he also knew that such a style of having an entourage to protect him was not an idle person. After all, the Meng Mansion is just an ordinary eunuch, and there are too many Buddhas in the capital, so it is not a trivial matter to provoke any one. Although this is no wonder the Meng family's car, if the other party is a small-bellied chicken intestine, he has nowhere to reason if he bites back at this time.

Thinking so, the coachman hurriedly pulled the reins and wanted to get out of the car to make amends.

The horse became more and more unstable, and looked up and neighed as if dissatisfied, and led the carriage to sway slightly.

Gu An turned over and dismounted at the right time, grabbed the bridle, and then said apologetically: "I'm really sorry for accidentally startling the horse of the Zunfu." I don't know which lady is in the car, is she frightened? ”

Inside, Mrs. Meng was indeed a little frightened, for fear that the horse would not look good if it went crazy under the imperial city, but fortunately, Gu An appeased the horse in time, and it was fine at this time. Mrs. Meng is not a scheming person, and immediately said through the curtain: "Thank you for your help, there is nothing in the car, your Excellency does not have to worry too much." ”

Listening to that meaning, it was naturally a trivial matter, and then they went their separate ways without incident.

Xu Yan heard the movement in front, and he had already turned the horse's head over, where could he guess Gu An's intentions, and seized the opportunity at the moment, and reprimanded with a straight face: "Don't you have long eyes when walking, such a spacious road can startle people's cars and horses, if you hurt the people in the car, what should you do?" ”

Gu An hurriedly knelt down and begged: "It's a time when I was careless, I mistakenly indulged in a bad horse, and I ask Your Highness to punish you." ”

Xu Yan continued to reprimand, "I shocked people, and I only apologized?" It can be seen that it is usually used to being flamboyant! ”

When Gu An heard this, he begged for mercy and was full of shame.

How could Mrs. Meng still sit in the carriage, so she had to lift the curtain and look out, and saw that the other party was His Royal Highness King Duan, Xu Yan, she couldn't help but be shocked in her heart, and hurriedly explained: "It's my family's carriage that occupies the road, no wonder this strong man, please don't be responsible." ”

When the curtain was lifted, Xu Yan saw Shen Yan who was looking curiously in the car at a glance. The delicate body is wrapped in a cloud of smoke, and the delicate face is soft and white, like a delicate flower blooming in the smoke lake, which is beautiful and moving.

The familiar face is in the eye, and I suddenly feel like a spring rain and my heart is happy.

Even though Xu Yan was reprimanding just now, he was a lot more pleasant at this time, and arched his hand: "It turned out to be Mrs. Meng, it was the king who taught it, and it was okay to startle the carriages and horses in the house." The old lady and Miss Shen are all right, right? ”

Mrs. Meng has dealt with Xu Yan very rarely, and she has never heard that this person is ruthless and cold, but now she is surprised to see him with a pleasant face. However, she also heard Mrs. Shen talk about the relationship between Xu Yan and Shen Fei, and the meaning of the concubine's summoning of Shen Yan this time was too obvious, and she expected that Xu Yan's sudden change of temperament must be for Shen Yan's sake, but she was also relieved.

"Thank you, Your Highness, the car is safe. I would also like to thank His Highness for taking care of the little girl on the way. ”

"It's not enough to raise your hands." Xu Yan's gaze couldn't help but fall on Shen Yan.

With such a look, Shen Yan couldn't sit anymore, and when she saw him politely communicating with Mrs. Meng, she snickered in her heart. However, in front of her grandmother, Shen Yu couldn't be willful, so she had to salute and thank you according to the rules: "Thank you, Your Highness." ”

- The velvet blanket he gave was really a very good thing, Shen Yu gave some of it to Mrs. Meng and her two aunts, and the rest of her own tailoring clothes, which were really light and warm, very satisfying.

Xu Yan looked at her and couldn't help but smile.

However, with Mrs. Meng present, he couldn't be too deliberate, since they were all acquaintances, he no longer scolded Gu An, so he took his leave and left, satisfied.

The remaining Shen Yu sat in the car and secretly scolded "cunning" eighteen times.

Back in the Meng Mansion, Tian, Lu and others naturally inquired about today's trip, and Mrs. Meng brought out the reason for the concubine, saying that Shen Fei's method of overprinting was deeply appreciated by the concubine, which made Shen Yan a little out of the limelight.

It's calm here, but the gossip rumors outside are intensifying.

As Xu Yan expected, as soon as the matter in the Heavenly Spirit Temple spread out that day, Qi Ge's wife immediately went to visit Qin Ni's mother and daughter's residence, and not long after, the news of the dissolution of the marriage contract between the Qin family and the Qi family came out.

Some people say that it is the Qi family who is messing around, and Cui Yan saved his fiancée's life, but he is not grateful but suspicious, and some people say that Qin Ni does not know how to be polite, and is hugged by a man with a red face, obviously he has made a promise. Naturally, there are also those who sympathize with Qin Ni, thinking that the good girl's family has suffered this fate, it is really helpless, and now that he has been divorced, shouldn't Cui Yan's son take a little responsibility?

No matter what the public commented, Qin Ni's name could be regarded as spreading, and if she was involved in such a thing, her reputation was more or less ruined.

In the Dubu Garden where everyone in the Qin family lived, Qin Ni's mother and daughter could only smile bitterly when they heard these rumors.

What else? Before leaving Luling, Qin Xiong said it clearly, if Qin Ni wanted to find a way to marry into Ningyuan Houfu, even if he paid some price for it, it was nothing.

Ning Yuan Houfu is not a fool, the Qin family and the Qi family have long had a marriage contract, and the wedding date is close to them, for no reason, the Qin family suddenly withdrew from the Qi family's marriage, who can not think about it? Besides, Ning Yuan's status in the Houfu is also quite honorable, even if Qin Ni no longer has a marriage contract, will they obediently come to propose marriage?

Although there are many people in Ningyuan Houfu, there are only Cui Yan and Cui Che who are not married now.

Cui Che is now sixteen years old, and he married Jiang Zhen early, and the remaining Cui Yan was somewhat embarrassed when he continued because he had married a wife, and after a delay of two years, Qin Xiong hit him with the idea.

It's just that Cui is derivative, merciful everywhere, and the number of beauties he has seen may not be countable, and in the past two years, no one has been in the room to control him, and he has become more and more arrogant, and he may not be willing to marry immediately.

After all the calculations, Mrs. Qin had no choice but to think of this strategy, and made such a boiling thing, so it was logical to withdraw from the marriage, and then stir Cui Yan in, so that he had to marry.

For this matter, Qin Ni laughed in front of the people, and he didn't know how many tears he shed.
