Chapter 334: Drugged in Tea
Before the New Year's Festival, the ladies of the family were very busy, and the third lady of the second room of the Meng family, Meng Feifei, and the ceremony did not alarm many people at this time, and the only people who were invited were some ladies of the family who were good friends with Meng Feifei, and a few ladies who had already known the news and took the initiative to come to watch the ceremony. The second lady of the pen www.biquge.info Mrs. Meng, Hong, was naturally very happy and grateful.
Yao Xinyue's arrival naturally caused a burst of admiration. This woman is a rising star, and has become the focus of attention with her excellent appearance, extraordinary singing voice, strong background and recent rumors.
The Meng family invited her to come, does that mean that the marriage between the Meng family and the Lu Wangfu is a must-do?
The relationship between the Meng family and the present is complicated, the ambiguous political position, and the strength that cannot be underestimated make it the target of common suspicion and prevention among the courtiers. Most of the people present were family members of staunch supporters of the Meng family, and they were closely related to the honor and disgrace of the Meng family. Meng Jiaxing, they are lucky. The Meng family perished, and they perished. What is the purpose of the Meng family now getting closer to King Lu? None of the people present were stupid, and no one would be naΓ―ve enough to think that the rumors of Helian County and Yao Xinyue were only due to Helian County's infatuation with the city. Family marriage is a matter of prosperity, not affection!
The attitude of the ladies of the family towards Yao Xinyue is as kind as they are, they live dependent on the Meng family, and the choice of the Meng family is their choice. The ladies stepped forward one after another, praising Yao Xinyue's beauty and lamenting that they had not been able to meet her earlier. For more than half a month, Yao Xinyue, who had been apprehensive and tasteless and unable to sleep, was almost lost in this overwhelming sound of praise. The Meng family treated her so kindly, but Helian County's attitude was so cold, he still avoided it......
Yao Xinyue was persuaded by those ladies to drink many glasses of wine, and when everyone proposed to go to the forest to pick plum blossoms, she stood up and shook her body lightly, and shyly said "I'm sorry" to everyone, "I'm not strong enough to drink, I'm really a little dizzy this time, sisters go by themselves, I'll find a place for me to rest for a while......"
At that time, several young ladies volunteered to stay and take care of her, and Hong appeared in time and said with a smile: "Look at you are so affectionate, it seems that we people were like when we were young." Don't worry, your sister Yao won't turn into a fairy and fly back to the sky, when you come back from picking plum blossoms, you will come to see her again. β
said to the maid beside him: "Xiaoman, you take Miss Yao to Caiyue Xuan to rest." β
Yao Xinyue raised her head and collided with Hong's gaze, and both of them had a trace of understanding in their hearts.
In an instant, two red clouds floated on both sides of her cheeks, and she felt dizzy from the burning sensation. After all, she is a girl, and this kind of thing is known and arranged by the elders in private, even if it has a clear purpose that everyone knows, it is inevitable to be embarrassed and embarrassed.
Hong didn't look at her anymore, she didn't understand the politics of the men, what she had to do was to do her best to help them facilitate this according to the men's request.
On the way to Caiyuexuan, naturally there will be no encounters with others, and the road is unimpeded, standing in front of this small building called "Caiyuexuan", Yao Xinyue unconsciously tightened her hand holding her sleeves.
The maid Xiaoman took her into a warm room where hot tea and a hand stove had been prepared, and curtsited, "Miss, wait a minute, the slave maid go and fetch a blanket for Miss." β
Blanket...... It was clearly on the side of the chaise longue where she was sitting at the moment......
Yao Xinyue's cheeks burned like fire again, with a little shyness, a little panic, and a little expectation...... He's coming, he's finally coming!
There are two teacups in front of me, and the snacks are also the weight of two people...... If it weren't him, who else would it be? No, just like the day she stayed for dinner last time, the Hong family accompanied her alone, right?
Looking at the teacup in front of her, there was a battle between heaven and man in her mind. It was the best time to do it, and she didn't have the courage to hide it from him in front of him. However, if he really wants to come to this point, will he still cherish her in the future? Will she be treated as a messy water woman?
But...... Does she still have the right to hesitate or choose?
Thinking of Princess Lu's scolding last time, she gritted her teeth. She took out the paper bag in her sleeve and opened it with trembling hands, just in case, mixed a lot of powder into both cups......
Suddenly, the door inside creaked open, and she was so shocked that she almost jumped up. She didn't dare to look back, and sat up stiff, not knowing what expression she should use to face him. The empty paper bag left in my hand is like a hot potato, and I don't know what to do with it. There was the sound of beads clashing, and she knew he had lifted the beaded curtain in the inner room. He was not far behind her, about ten paces away.
With her back to him, she crumpled the empty paper packet, stuffed it into her mouth, and swallowed the tea in front of her.
Gently wiping the corners of her mouth with her sleeve, she slowly turned her head, revealing a sweetest and innocent smile......
Helian County's tall figure enveloped her, and she tried her best to hold her head high, her eyes as tender as water, and met him.
His eyes, with a deep, bottomless dark color, a high and bulging nose like a smooth and steep mountain, and a thin and light-colored half of the lips hidden under his beard, showed that this rough man was very handsome and handsome......
Handsomeness? The word popped into her mind, and she laughed at herself for being stupid. Could it be that the drama is too deep into the play, thinking that the person in front of him is really the person he has destined? Love is blind?
As everyone knows, Helian County is greedy for money and lustful, brave and unscrupulous, murderous like hemp, barbaric and rude, such a person, handsome?
She gathered her mind, quickly got up, and bowed deeply, "Hou Ye Wan'an." I don't know if the Hou Ye is resting here, and the new moon rashly intrudes, it's really rude......"
He pursed his lips and smiled, and one sentence made her embarrassed, "It was Ben Hou who asked the second aunt to arrange for you to come here, how could you break in rashly?" Naturally, you also know that Ben Hou is here, so you are waiting here with such a blush and heartbeat. β
No matter how much it is arranged in advance, the two sides are intentional, and they can't be exposed in person, which makes people embarrassed!
If it were another woman, I was afraid, so I would rush out in anger at this sentence, right?
Yao Xinyue was also annoyed, but she was ashamed. At this moment, her face was as red as fire, she didn't dare to raise her head, turned around and picked up the teacup, bowed her body into a beautiful curve, and raised the teacup above her head, "No matter what, it's a faux pas for the new moon, Lord Hou, please drink tea, forgive the sins of the new moon, otherwise, the new moon is really uncomfortable in my heart......"
The voice was as delicate as the whisper of a lover's ear, making the surrounding air a little sweeter.
Helian took the teacup and smiled.
He sat on the edge of the couch and looked at Yao Xinyue, who seemed to be shy and timid, and was also angry and happy in front of him. It's a pity to match him with such a color and such a style. How much political ambition must King Lu have to refuse this imminent and fatal temptation and give him both hands?
From a man's point of view, Mu Shaoai is in love with Qihua, if he can accept it, even if he dies the next day, I am afraid that he will have no regrets in this life! Is he crazy too? I snubbed such a beauty several times! (To be continued.) )
