After the snow, the weather was extremely cold, Su Yan was wrapped in a fluffy ball, and when she came out of the house, she still didn't feel a shiver. Holding the stove in her arms, she especially misses the natural body temperature of her two tiger cubs. It's a pity that it's too cold outside, neither big cats nor kittens want to come out of the warm house, whenever Su Yan hugs them out, they follow her to play tricks, which makes her extremely helpless.

"Brother!" Su Yan's eyes widened and he exclaimed with surprise.

Hou is outside the mansion, a young man dressed in a black fox coat, with a long body, a smile, handsome eyebrows, and indescribably gentle and elegant, is it not Su Yan's brother, Su Zhengxun, the Shilang of the Su family.

Su Yan almost trotted to his brother's side, stretched out his hand and grabbed his brother's clothes, "Brother, don't you have to go to the academy today?" Grandfather is finally willing to let you go? "Su Yan's two elder brothers, since they returned to Shangdu, have both entered the Lu family's academy, especially the eldest brother Su Zhengxun was personally taught by Lu Taifu.

Because next year is the 50th birthday of the saint, he made a decree early, next year will open Enke, plus the beginning of the next year is a normal year, and after two consecutive years of imperial examination selection, Su Zhoucheng plans to let his eldest son try his skills. This leads to the heavier Su Zhengxun's schoolwork, and he used to occasionally go out with his classmates and friends, but during this time, he simply lived in Lu's house, and only went home every few days.

After all, since Su Yan returned to Shangdu, he hadn't gone out with his two brothers to have a good time. I was really pleasantly surprised to see my eldest brother today.

Su Zhengxun touched his sister's fluffy little head lovingly, and nodded with a smile, "Well, my grandfather gave me a day off to accompany Ah Shu out to play." ”

Su Yan winked at his brother playfully, "Is it really with me?" Not to accompany my sister? "Her mother has confessed, and she is going to follow her sister-in-law today.

Su Zhengxun scratched his sister's upturned little nose, and said with a smile: "Accompany me, aren't you with Ah Yuan." ”

"Cunning fourth brother." Su Yan muttered in a low voice. Although her brother didn't accompany her on purpose, she was quite happy. She whispered and quipped: "Fourth brother, I heard A-Niang say that our family will have a happy event next year." "My brother and my sister-in-law have been married for almost two years, if it weren't for my brother wanting to get a jinshi, so as to make the marriage more beautiful, I wouldn't have let the fourth sister-in-law wait for one more year.

Su Zhengxun was very thick-skinned, raised his eyebrows and smiled when he heard this: "In the future, multiple sisters-in-law will hurt you together, isn't it?" ”

"Hmph, if my sister-in-law wants to hurt, I will hurt you first." Su Yan got into the carriage with the support of his brother, and before the curtain fell, he wrinkled his little nose at his brother, "Let's go, Sister Gu should be in a hurry." She also deliberately added, "Brother, don't worry, when I get to Furong Garden, I will play with Wanwan and them, and I won't follow you and Sister Gu." After speaking, he quickly put the curtain down, only to hear the girl in the car giggle and chuckle: "That's it, let's go quickly." ”

Su Zhengxun shook his head and chuckled, turned over and got on the horse, followed the car unhurriedly, and walked in the direction of the eldest princess's mansion.

After the brother and sister picked up Gu Yuan, it was a little late when they went to Furong Garden, and when they arrived at Linjiang Immortal, Song Wan and Duan Jiao both arrived. Su Yan got out of the carriage by himself, turned around and pressed Gu Yuan back, and laughed quietly: "I've arrived at the place, but my sister hasn't arrived yet." After speaking, she pursed her lips and waved at Su Zhengxun and Gu Yuan, and walked towards the building with the maid and guard.

Gu Yuan was blushed by her actions, and wanted to come down very shyly, but was stopped by Su Zhengxun. Gu Yuan looked up, and saw the young man who was like jade with his fist to his lips, coughed lightly twice, and said with a smile: "Let's go." ”

As soon as the two looked at each other, Gu Yuan's face burned even more, and he was so ashamed that he retracted directly into the car, and the curtain was immediately lowered, but his heart was sweet.

Song Wan puffed out his cheeks and snorted dissatisfiedly: "Shi Niang, you are the last one to arrive." ”

It was extremely warm inside the restaurant, and Su Yan relieved the big noise outside before sitting down. She looked at the interior and asked, "Why don't there be private rooms here?" ”

Linjiang Xian Restaurant is not very high, only two floors, but the area of the building is not small. On the first floor, there is a stage in the center, and there are seats around the stage, but the second floor is separated by screens. Su Yan looked at the screens, they were not like ordinary restaurants, they used screens similar to the four beauties and the twelve flowers, and they were all made of white silk, and each compartment was equipped with pen and ink, and some of the screens had poems and paintings on them. Take a closer look, among them, there are extraordinary famous romantic talents and calligraphy and painting masters in Daxia.

Su Yanxian pointed a little and said with a smile: "This screen is a little interesting, it is quite the same as the white wall of the Wujun Huiying Building." "The Huiying Building in Wu County, the walls of the three floors are white, and there are pen and ink in the building, which is used for the literati to come and write poems and words. However, if you mention calligraphy and painting, whether you can stay or not depends on your own ability.

Duan Jiao shook her head when she heard this, "Listen to my eldest brother, Linjiang Immortal's move is indeed a study from the Ying Building." ”

Song Wan also said: "The screen with calligraphy and painting is not easy to stay on the second floor of Linjiang Immortal. As far as I know, only three of the younger generation have left their poems. She tilted her head cutely and looked at Su Yan, "Shi Niang guess whose one stayed." ”

Su Yan took a sip of tea unhurriedly, and then said slowly: "Lu Ji, my brother, and King Wu." ”

"Huh, how do you know?" Song Wan's eyes widened.

Su Yan pointed to the side directly in front of him, "My brother's words, I am naturally the most familiar with them." "Then point next to my brother," this is the eleventh cousin Lu Ji, and his words are also common to me. As for Wu Wang, I have only seen his words once, although I am not familiar with it, I am familiar with it, and the dictionary of this poem is very consistent with his style, so I boldly guessed, I didn't expect it to be right. ”

Song Wan turned around when he heard this, and happened to see Lu Ji's small order that spread all over Shangdu. She said with annoyance: "Why didn't I see it just now, this screen was actually placed here." ”

The three little girls were chatting here, but they didn't want to have ears next door. Su Rongzheng sat with the sixth prince, King Wu, along with Wang Jing, Princess Yang'an, and the third prince, King Zhou.

Su Yan's words were listened to by several people just now, and Wu Wangzheng couldn't help but pause with his hand raising his glass, and then smiled slightly, as if he was in a good mood. When Su Rong saw it, his heart was slightly sour. As soon as she wanted to speak, she heard Song Wan's crisp voice next door, "Shi Niang, Ah Duan, let's go downstairs to play." ”

The little girls are here to visit the Hibiscus Garden today, and when they heard this, they naturally nodded in agreement, and Duan Jiao also added: "Linjiang Xian will have all kinds of singing and dancing and hundred opera performances after noon every day, let's say hello to the shopkeeper when we go downstairs, don't let people sit here, at noon, let's come back and see." ”

Song Wan said: "It's just right to eat here at noon, Linjiang Xian's wine and food must be the same as Shi Niang's taste." ”

"Yes, the chefs here are all invited from Wu County."

"You guys seem familiar with this place, don't you look familiar?" Su Yan's voice was a little puzzled.

Song Wan smiled and pointed at Duan Jiao, "You ask her!" ”

Duan Jiao smiled: "This restaurant was opened by my sister-in-law's brother-in-law. ”

As soon as she said this, everyone knew who this Linjiang Immortal actually belonged to.

Princess Yang'an listened to the footsteps of a few little girls in the distance, and then chuckled: "Qi Niang, why didn't you come out with Shi Niang." She glanced at her silent brother, and then swept over the smiling King Wu, "It seems that it is rare to see Qi Niang and Shi Niang together, and where there is Wan Wan, most of them will meet Shi Niang." ”

Su Rong smiled faintly, "The tenth sister has an excellent relationship with An and Junjun, and it is common to play in one place. ”

"What about Qi Niang? I've been seeing Qi Niang and Liu Lang in the same place recently, and you guys are really fated. Princess Yang'an covered her lips and smiled, and a pair of wonderful eyes wandered between Su Rong and the six princes.

The corners of King Wu's lips lifted slightly, revealing a smile, "It's really a coincidence." ”

Princess Yang'an quipped: "Does this mean that you are destined?" When she said this, she deliberately paid attention to her brother, and sure enough, King Zhou's expression became more indifferent. Princess Yang'an sighed slightly in her heart, she really didn't have the intention to attack her brother, Su Rong was the concubine of the prince of the Yasukuni Mansion, and it was impossible for her father to give her to her brother as a side concubine. Since things are impossible, it is better to let my brother die as soon as possible.

Su Rong lowered his eyelids and hid the complicated feelings in his eyes. Yesterday, when I was invited to enter the palace by Concubine Shu, I actually met Wang Shuyun in the palace, and looking at her direction, it was the palace where Concubine De lived. Thinking of Princess Zhou, who fell ill again as soon as winter began, she probably knew that Wang Shuyun should enter the palace of King Zhou. Hehe, I don't know how her cousin, who is very angry, will help King Zhou fight for the throne?

Su Rong thought of Wang Shuyun here, and Su Yan met her on her side. She had just been whipped by a proud girl on a horse, and if it hadn't been for the timely protection of the maids around her, the whip would have been whipped right on her delicate little face.

Wang Shuyun's face was pale, there was fear in his eyes, and he was almost disfigured just now.

"Stop!" Su Yan was still angry when she saw that the girl had a whip, and she actually raised her hand and wanted to whip her again, and she went directly at Wang Shuyun's face, which was too much. You must know that a girl's appearance is almost related to the happiness of her life, this woman is so vicious, she will ruin people's appearance when she comes up.

Su Yan's guards rushed over and surrounded Wang Shuyun's maidservants in the middle, faintly confronting the beating girl.

"Who are you! Dare to meddle with me! The delicate woman was very dissatisfied, but when she saw that Su Yan's clothes and decorations were by no means ordinary young women, and the guards around her were actually inferior to her own, she knew that she was from a good background, so she did not scold some words.

Su Yan didn't care about her at all, turned around and asked Wang Shuyun, "Cousin, are you hurt?" ”

Wang Shuyun was shocked, she shook her head vigorously, and it took a long time before she spoke: "I'm fine, but the servant is injured clearly." She looked at her maid distressedly, because she reached out to block the whip, her sleeves were torn, revealing the cotton wool inside, and the back of her hand was swept by the whip, dripping blood. There was no damage on his face, probably because of the pain in his hands and tears in his eyes, but he tried to endure it and not let the tears fall.

"Shiqin, how are you, do you hurt?" Wang Shuyun completely lost his previous cold and noble nature, holding the hand of the servant, and asked with tears in his eyes.

Shiqin bit her lower lip, held back her tears, and said in a trembling voice: "Erniang, don't worry, the slave is fine." ”

Su Yan didn't have time to see the deep affection between their master and servant, so he pointed directly to a person, "Take her to the hospital." He asked Wang Shuyun suspiciously: "Cousin, where are your guards?" "As a young lady of the Guogong Mansion, even if she is a concubine, when she goes out, it is impossible not to have a guard.

"Uh......" Wang Shuyun didn't know how to answer, she sneaked out today and wanted to find a miracle doctor. But I didn't want to, I would meet such a female madman, whipping people at will.

Su Yan looked at her appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, and there was something she didn't understand. She really served this cousin, she could toss better than her seventh sister, a famous lady, she didn't even bring a guard to go out, she wasn't afraid that something would happen, so that she couldn't be King Zhou's side concubine!

"Hey, I ask you, who the hell are you!" The delicate girl on the horse couldn't hold back any longer, carried the whip, and broke the horse to Su Yan's side.

The guards of the Yasukuni Mansion are all the best, especially those who follow Su Yan. As soon as he saw that someone might be dangerous to his little lady, he unsheathed his sword unceremoniously, stopped the person, and shouted coldly: "Stop, go further, don't blame you for being unkind." ”

The girl who was stopped blushed with anger when she saw the sword dangling in front of her, and pointed at Su Yan and Wang Shuyun with a horsewhip, "Take the two of them down for me!" ”

Song Wan and Duan Jiao, who were waiting on the side, looked at each other, who is this girl, so arrogant. Dare to be so arrogant in the capital city, they all know it, where did this one come from.

Song Wan suddenly remembered someone, she touched Duan Jiao, and asked in a low voice, "Isn't this the one from the Wei family who came back recently?" "Shangdu Wei family, is also an old noble family, now there is a concubine in the palace, once after the death of today's biological mother, raised him for a few years, after Emperor Yongping succeeded to the throne, the Wei concubine and the Wei family are very preferential.

The Wei family was born in martial arts, and most of the children in the family were in the army, and the northwest frontier defense has always been the territory of the Wei family. Song Wan said that the little lady of the Wei family who just came back, her father was a general of the Northwest Army, and she was only recently transferred back to Zuo Wuwei as a general.

Duan Jiao also remembered that this eighth lady of the Wei family had not been back for long, and she hadn't shown up much except after entering the palace and seeing Concubine Wei. She looked at the guard beside the girl and nodded silently, "It should be." ”

Song Wan raised his voice and asked, "Are you Wei Banniang?" ”

"It's me." The girl turned her head to look at Song Wan and the others, raised her chin, and asked arrogantly, "Who are you?" ”

Song Wan picked up the style of the princess's daughter, and replied unhurriedly: "I am the prince of Anhe." ”

"Oh." Wei Banniang said that she knew, and she didn't get off the horse, but squinted at Su Yan, and suddenly asked, "Are you Su Shi Niang?" ”

Su Yan nodded.

"Heh, I really gave birth to a vixen." Wei Banniang sneered and looked at Wang Shuyun, and said hatefully: "The cousin of the fox spirit is not a good thing, the next time I see you go to the Zhou Palace, I will suck your face." ”

Su Yan was annoyed at that time, and glanced at the chief guard, "Throw her off the horse." After speaking, she pulled Wang Shuyun and walked in the direction of Song Wan, without looking at it again.

The guards of the Yasukuni Mansion were already numerous, and coupled with their vigorous skills, they quickly completed Su Yan's orders. Su Yan heard the screams behind him, and bent his eyebrows in a good mood.

"Vixen, you dare to ......"

Su Yan turned around suddenly, stared at Wei Banniang, who was supported by the guards and was red-eyed, and said lightly: "If you say another word, I will have people gag your mouth and throw it back to the Wei family." ”

Wei Banniang somehow, when she was stared at by those black and white phoenix eyes, she felt cold on her body, and she shouted inwardly: "You, you dare!" ”

Su Yan bent out a sweet smile and said word by word: "You see if I dare." ”

"You, you wait for me!" Wei Banniang saw that her side was really no match for others, and she could only suffer a loss if she really fought, so she threw down a sentence unwillingly and left with someone.

Song Wan covered her mouth and was so happy, "I thought she was so crossed, so she left." ”

Su Yan glared at her angrily, "Is it possible, you still let the two of us fight on the street." ”

Song Wan took Su Yan's arm and asked curiously, "What if she really scolds you again?" ”

"Gagged her and threw her home. I'm a man of words. "Su Yan, who was scolded by someone on the street for the first time on the street, was holding his breath in his heart." By the way, cousin, why did you provoke Wei Banniang? "This girl should have just returned to Beijing, everyone has never seen it, why did she have a feud with Wang Shuyun? Su Yan said that he was very puzzled.

Song Wan poked Su Yan with a gossipy expression, and smiled, "I know this." ”

"Something to do with King Zhou?" Su Yan glanced thoughtfully at Wang Shuyun, who lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking. Thinking that my grandmother mentioned it a few days ago, it seems that Concubine De in the palace wanted to choose a side concubine for King Zhou, and she chose this cousin. However, what does this have to do with Wei Banniang, with her identity, it is impossible to be the side concubine of King Zhou.

Song Wan said: "You don't know, right?" She looked left and right, feeling that this was not the place to talk, and pulled Su Yan and Duan Jiao, "It's a long story, let's find a place to sit." ”

Duan Jiao said: "Return to Linjiang Immortal? ”

Song Wan squinted at her, "That place is only separated by a screen, and countless people can hear a whisper." ”

Duan Jiao shrugged, "That's up to you." ”

"Cousin, I'll have someone take you home." Su Yan felt that it was better to send Wang Shuyun home quickly, this person's expression was very subtle from just now, and he didn't know what he was thinking in his heart.

Wang Shuyun came out easily, her goal has not been achieved, how can she go home willingly. "Shi Niang, I still have something to do, you guys go play."

Sister, what's the matter with you! Su Yan really doesn't understand this cousin, you were almost disfigured just now, you have already taken a maid in, and you plan to walk around by yourself, your heart is too big. Today, she has taken care of this matter, and she has to take care of it to the end, and it is impossible to let Wang Shuyun go by herself.

Su Yan shook his head, "Cousin, in my opinion, you should go home." If there's anything, just send a maid out. After speaking, Wang Shuyun was not allowed to refuse, and directly instructed his subordinates, "Send Miss Biao back to the house." ”

Wang Shuyun was a little annoyed, "Shi Niang, I said, I still have something." ”

Su Yan ignored her anymore and let Song Wan pull her into another wine shop. Wang Shuyun looked at the few cold-faced tall guards around him, and stomped his feet unwillingly, but there was no way but to go home.

Su Yan sighed secretly, what is this called, it is easy to come out happily to play once, and when I encounter such a bad thing, I am afraid that I will be complained about if I save someone.

Song Wan pushed Su Yan, "Don't be angry, this wine is the best, I invite you." ”

"Let's talk about Wei Banniang first, what's going on?" Su Yan asked.

Song Wan sent the maids around him to charter the entire wine shop, at least there could be no one in the private room around them, and a few maids and guards were sitting. Then he was relieved to gossip, "Wei Banniang is not a concubine, she has fallen in love with King Zhou again, and it is normal to look at your cousin unpleasantly in order to compete for the position of the side concubine." ”

Duan Jiao was very surprised, "Looking at her appearance, she is the eldest daughter of the Wei family, and she is not so arrogant." Gu said that the five mothers of the Wei family, who are most liked by Concubine Wei, have also seen them a few times, they are really gentle and dignified, and their charm is noble. are also concubines, why is there such a big difference. ”

Song Wan sneered: "Wei Wu is going to the prince Liangdi, dare to be like Wei Ba." ”

Su Yan had only met this Wei Wuniang once, and she had no impression at all, she had a deep impression of Wei Liuniang, another lady of the Wei family. She followed up and said: "I think the sixth mother of the Wei family is still successful." ”

Song Wan said that he couldn't understand Su Yan's aesthetics at all, "Wei Liu is proud like a rooster that only crows, where can it be?" I don't think she's as good as Wei Wu, no wonder Concubine Wei likes it. ”

Su Yan shook his head, "I think Concubine Wei prefers Wei Liuniang." "Wei Liuniang's identity is enough to be the crown princess, and Concubine Wei is not stupid, there is a niece and granddaughter who can be the crown princess who doesn't like it, isn't it too strange to like to be a concubine.

Song Wan spit out: "Don't you know that the crown princess is decided, it will definitely not be Wei Liuniang." "That's why Wei Wuniang will be taken seriously. She suddenly grabbed Su Yan's side, leaned into her ear, and whispered: "Don't pretend to be stupid, my aunt said that the sage has taken a fancy to you." After saying that, she waited for Su Yan to shyly push herself away, so that she could take the opportunity to tease her again.

Unexpectedly, Miss Su slapped Song Wan's hand very calmly, "Don't talk nonsense." ”

Song Wan was anxious, "Really! ”

Su Yan asked rhetorically, "Even if it's true, so what?" ”

That's right? Song Wan grabbed his hair. Wait, no, "Why don't you blush?" ”

"Why should I blush?"

"Didn't you hear me?"

"I hear you." Su Yan nodded affirmatively, "But what does this have to do with my blushing?" ”

Song Wan: ...... She was speechless.
