Chapter 81: Going to the Banquet with a Single Knife
Wei Que listened to the report from his subordinates, and suddenly frowned, and the happy expression just now instantly turned cold. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info She pursed her lips, she really couldn't understand why Duanyue was uninvited. However, looking at the hundred-year-old ginseng presented by the next person, it became entangled again, if she was driven away, wouldn't it seem that she was a very vicious person with hatred, not to mention that people still came in the name of "congratulations".
"Princess, does the lord of Shi'an want the slaves to send away?" The maid serving beside Wei Que asked softly, but Wei Que shook her head.
She took a deep breath and felt really annoyed. "Well, let her in. Anyway, there are so many people watching here, I don't believe what else she can do to me! ”
The maid nodded, and then glanced at the servant who had reported it, and he immediately turned and went out.
"Sister Wei Que, but what happened?" Qin Yang, who was sitting next to her, saw the sudden change in her expression in her eyes and asked kindly.
However, Wei Que would tell Qin Yang about her careful thoughts, she just smiled at Qin Yang as if she was fine. "It's okay, it's just that there's a guest visiting." Her smile was invisible, but Wei Que pinched the teacup, and her fingers unconsciously forced, as if she was venting, and Qin Yang could see it at a glance.
Duanyue and Cuiguo waited outside the door for a long time, and it was the first time she was left aside by others, which made her unaccustomed to it. Cuiguo was patiently persuaded by the side, which allowed Duanyue to hold her breath and endure until now. When the man walked out, he respectfully walked towards Duanyue to the palace, and Duanyue was a little deflated.
From a certain point of view, Zeyang Palace's Mansion is still not as good as Ninghou Mansion. The scenery in the yard or the flowers and plants planted on the roadside are all ordinary goods, and Cuiguo can't help but show a mocking look as she walks all the way.
"County Lord, I look at the Zeyang Palace, it's not as comfortable as our own home."
Duanyue snorted coldly, of course she knew how large the Ninghou Mansion was, and Meng Tao was just a nameless prince who was not favored by the emperor. She has been to many princes' mansions, but this Zeyang Mansion is the most shabby, and she doesn't know where Wei Que's confidence comes from, which can make her look at no one.
After walking a few steps, Duanyue listened to the laughter between the women, and the sharp sound made Duanyue want to cover her ears. She asked Cuiguo in disbelief. "These women are the daughters of the ministers of the DPRK and China, not rural women?"
"County lord, these are the most famous ladies in Chang'an City, but they are all famous ladies." Cuiguo replied obediently. The ridicule of the two singing and harmonizing made the subordinates on the side feel like a man, but they were uncomfortable.
A group of young women, looking at Duanyue, an uninvited guest, suddenly quieted down, and no one dared to speak again. However, Duanyue's focus was not on this group of rabble, she quickly looked for the figure of the mandarin duck in the crowd, but she looked back and forth several times, but she couldn't find the mandarin duck, which inexplicably made Duanyue feel a little flustered. Could it be that Wei Que was already bold enough to dare to put Mandarin Yuan under house arrest?
Wei Que watched Duanyue appear and laughed dryly. "Oh, why did the county lord come?"
Listening to her tone, it seems that Duanyue is just late. Duanyue half-narrowed her eyes, and her eyes were shining. "Oops, I'm late! Didn't I just hear that the princess was giving a banquet to all the famous ladies in Chang'an City, so I hurried over. She touched the pearl earrings hanging from her earlobes and smiled shyly. It's not in a hurry, it's not a good way to dress up. ”
All the women looked at each other, and of course they could hear the irony in Duanyue's words.
Wei Que smiled, pretending to be surprised. "How so? I personally wrote your invitation to the county lord, didn't those stupid subordinates lose it for me? After that, the maid who was on the side of the costume knelt in front of Wei Que with a "poof", and this smooth movement startled Duanyue.
"The princess spared her life, but the slave and maid were derelict in their duties." She lowered her head and began to sob. "The slave was in a trance that day, and lost a lot of invitations, but I didn't dare to tell the princess."
It's really a good skill to blame others, and this maid is also a clever and loyal protector of the Lord. Duanyue secretly praised herself, just a smile on her face, and her eyes were peaceful. "Forget it, don't I still come?"
"Don't thank the county lord yet," Wei Que glared at the maid and waved his arm. "Get down, don't bother you!" After that, the maid left quickly and easily resolved such a turmoil.
Duanyue snorted coldly, but she couldn't see the mandarin ducks, and she was anxious and didn't know what to do. Qin Yang is still a good person, when she saw such an embarrassing scene, the corners of her mouth immediately smiled slightly. "It's good if the Lord of Shi'an is here," she gently took Duanyue's hand with her bare hand and pulled it to her side. "I've always heard people talk about the lord of Shi'an, but I just saw it today, what a good-looking woman."
Duanyue was stunned by Qin Yang's sudden intimacy. She turned her head to look at the owner of the white and slender palm on her wrist, Qin Yang's face revealed the miserable whiteness of being sick all the year round, but her eyebrows and eyes were very comfortable, and she looked very gentle and delicate.
Duanyue was very uncomfortable with her sudden grabbing, and pulled out her palm with a little embarrassment. "Princess Qinghe is also beautiful and beautiful."
"You can rest assured, Miss Yu is here." Qin Yang leaned into Duanyue's ear, and the hot breath exhaled made Duanyue shrink his neck. Doubts flashed in her eyes, and Duanyue looked at Qin Yang's face, not knowing why she wanted to say this.
She thought about it for a while, she had never had contact with Qin Yang on weekdays, why did she suddenly help herself? This sudden gesture of favor made Duanyue confused, but it backfired and made her want to distance herself.
However, as Qin Yang said, Duanyue looked at the shade of a tree in the distance, and the mandarin duck was standing there well, and there was a familiar figure standing beside her, and she looked at it and realized that it was Lu Qingyi. Presumably, the mandarin duck can be safe and sound, mostly under the protection of Lu Qingyi. In any case, Lu Qingyi is the only daughter of Princess Sheng'an, and Wei Que can't make a feud with her.
"Thank you Princess Qinghe for reminding me." Duanyue nodded politely but very indifferently at her and thanked her, and before Qin Yang could speak, he immediately ran to the mandarin duck.
Seeing Duanyue's sudden appearance, the mandarin duck pounced without thinking, very aggrieved. "You're finally here!" The sadness revealed between the words is about to come out.
Lu Qingyi looked at her as pitiful as a little white rabbit, and sighed secretly. "When I came, I happened to see Miss Yu being troubled, so I helped me say a few words, and Princess Zeyang was willing to stop." She frowned and looked at Duanyue. "I didn't expect this princess to be such a woman, it's really surprising to me."
"It's a long story, I'll talk to you when I have time." Duanyue turned her head and glared at Wei Que, who was smiling. There will come a time when you can't laugh!
