Chapter 146: A Gentleman
On the day of Sang Li's birthday, her temple was bustling with activity. All the attendants were busy, and Lord Wanfu, as Sang Li's uncle, came to the palace early to sit for her.
Thinking of the Shangyuan Festival banquet, at that time, Minsa and Yingshu sat together, and talked and laughed with Gu Ting and Sang Li. And now, still Shu is sitting with Chi Qin, Chi Heng, and Chi Yan, and Gu Ting has just happened to be sent to the Western Regions and has not yet returned, so Mingsa is sitting there alone, no one is talking and laughing, and he can only drink himself.
If it weren't for the wine glass in her hand and sipping wine from time to time, she didn't know if she would have inadvertently glanced at still Shu, afraid of that kind of embarrassment, so she kept drinking to cover it up.
I am afraid that I will be sad and drunk, today is Sang Li's birthday, maybe someone will pay homage to Sang Li on the spot, if the situation is not right, I have to help around, do not get drunk. So he just sipped it, hanging his head and not daring to raise his eyes.
Lord Wanfu looked at Minsa's lonely mood, and then looked at the intimacy between Ying Shu and Chiyan, which was really incomprehensible. Ever since he had learned about the incident with Chiyan, he understood why he had seen that day that he had left Minsa alone on the ancient tree pavilion and ignored it.
But he was just as confused as the Soul Master, and he didn't know why he was suddenly associated with Red Smoke, and there seemed to be no sign of it.
Besides, when he was poisoned, Minsa showed a sacrifice to take medicine, he still said that he showed his true feelings for Minsa after waking up, and the hot eyes between them above Qingyun's test, can't he explain his intentions for Minsa?
The more I thought about it, the more confused I became, and Lord Wanfu was even a little angry, and he was still angry.
……
When Sang Li came out, Minsa saw that she had deliberately dressed up, to be more delicate than usual, a purple red skirt robe lined her look more mature and charming, the local intercontinental aristocratic sons and brothers who had been looking forward to it in the outer hall, saw Sang Li coming out in a cluster, Du Ba looked at his eyes and tried to see more really, and a pair of bright eyes were fascinated.
Sang Li walked to the main seat beside Lord Wanfu and sat down.
Mingsa is also the first time to see these noble young people outside the imperial city, but seeing that they seem to be more energetic than the people in the imperial city, the land south of the Yangtze River is vast and rich, and the continents are also rich, plus the sky is high and the emperor is far away, maybe they live more comfortably than the nobles in the imperial city.
Chi Heng nested in the most corner of the Chi family, constantly pouring wine, General Chi Qin looked at him from time to time, angry at his uncompetitive appearance, and worried that he was drunk and would make trouble, so he turned around and beckoned the attendant who followed to come over and whisper a few words, and the attendant obediently went to Chi Heng's side a few seats later, and conveyed Chi Qin's words.
Chi Heng smiled bitterly after hearing this, put down the wine glass in his hand, and a dignified man who was galloping on the battlefield was so depressed that he still felt sympathy for the same disease, as if no one who had anything to do with the Chi family would have a good time.
……
The feast is over.
Silk and bamboo are staggered, and cups are changed.
At this time, a dignified-looking man in a green shirt walked in from the outer hall, holding a wine glass in his hand and looking solemn.
"In Dongfang Shuo, Xiashu Prefecture, I came to congratulate the birthday of the county lord of Sangli, and I have already hesitated for a long time to enter the palace, I hope to see the county lord's face, can the county lord forgive me for being abrupt and drinking a cup with him?"
That Dongfang Shuo also seems to belong to the dragon and phoenix among people, and his speech is even more sonorous and solid, neither humble nor arrogant, polite and courteous.
Although the nobles of the imperial city in the inner hall felt that this young man was reckless, how could they want to see the beauty of the county lord of Sangli and enter the inner hall, but when they saw his extraordinary demeanor, they did not speak, but waited for Sangli's reaction.
Sang Li glanced at Chi Heng who was nesting in the corner, and saw that he was like a turtle with a shrunken head at this moment, losing his former demeanor, and he didn't even dare to raise his eyelids to look at her.
So Sang Li withdrew his eyes to look at Chi Heng, and then smiled and looked forward to it, and picked up the wine glass on the table with her slender jade fingers, and then stood up delicately with a beautiful expression: "What is the shame of the love between men and women?" The so-called thoughts in the heart, the sword mountain and the sea of fire can also be crossed. Childe dares to express his chest directly, how can Sang Li not drink this cup with you? ”
After speaking, Sang Li raised his glass, and then drank the wine in the cup with Dongfang Shuo under the hall, that Dongfang Shuo was obviously excited, he had already sent a kiss post, at this moment the county lord of Sang Li was beautiful and shy, was he fancy by her at the moment?
This is amazing, since Dongfang Shuo volunteered, not taboo Tang abrupt and reckless to enter the inner hall to toast to Sang Li, the rest of the outer hall also coveted Sang Li young people, those who look elegant and affectionate, gentle and sincere aristocratic sons, they have held wine glasses, one after another came in to toast.
Sang Li did not shy away from it, everyone drank with it, and the atmosphere in this hall was immediately mobilized, and people, especially the people of the continent, were surprised by the openness of the women of the imperial city.
The mulberry at the banquet is like a little new green in the red, filling in a different color for the image of the always weak Jiangnan woman Vino.
She stood up and said to Dongfang Shuo, Mingsa understood that she was actually saying it to Chi Heng, if you miss me, if you love me, you will not hesitate to trek through mountains and rivers, cross mountains and mountains, come to me, and talk to me, but now your cowardice proves that you don't love me enough.
She said it bluntly like this, without the slightest pretentiousness, without half restraint, and without the trembling of the weak willow woman when she talked about her feelings, because she was unwilling to be hypocritical, and she did not want to wait in vain.
But she still didn't say half of it, and she wanted to say, I miss you so much, I look forward to your response so much, you know?
The more sad Sang Li became, the more he drank, the more sad he became, until tears hung uncontrollably on his face. Lord Wanfu and Minsa had already ordered the attendants to go to the outer hall, signaling to those young people who wanted to come to toast that the Lord of Sangli County was drunk and should not enter the hall again, so as not to leave a bad impression.
But Sang Li kept pouring wine and buying drunk, and no matter who persuaded him, he couldn't listen to it, and finally the lord of Wanfu had no choice but to ask two maids to forcibly take Sang Li out of the lobby and go back to rest.
Sang Li's excitement at the beginning made the atmosphere of the banquet lively, but then people saw that she was using wine to drown her sorrows, and the atmosphere suddenly became cold and extremely embarrassing.
Chi Heng looked at Sang Li who was already drunk, sometimes her eyes were full of tears, sometimes she was full of smiles, crying and laughing made his heart not sting, why was she born in the Chi family! Why should you be so cowardly! Chi Heng drank a glass of wine and laughed at himself as a coward.
……
Tears in laughter are the most tender, and pity is always inadvertent. (To be continued.) )
