Chapter 148: The Spectator is clear
It's just that this place is a palace banquet place after all, and if he is allowed to act so recklessly, no one will pay attention to it at this time, but I am afraid that it will definitely arouse the speculation of others in the near future.
Xie Ning could see clearly that Qin Xi was not here to find fault and vent his anger this time, but he was sad, so he would use wine to dispel his sorrows like this.
She has no way to deal with the private affairs between the two brothers, but Qin Xi is standing here so abnormally, I'm afraid it's not a good thing.
Qin Feng obviously had the same worries as her, "Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and we will enjoy the moon with our father later." You've already drunk this wine, so don't be greedy for more drinks, and go back to your seat quickly. ”
Knowing that Qin Feng was saying something, Qin Xi didn't say anything to expose it, just looked at him deeply, then picked up the wine jug and turned away.
"You guys also sit down," Qin Feng shifted his gaze to Xie Ning and the others, and simply instructed, but did not say much.
***
Because of Qin Xi's rampage, Xie Ning couldn't help but be a little absent-minded all night. But fortunately, Qin Feng attracted attention in front of her, but not many people paid attention to her.
Seeing a group of courtiers and dignitaries coming and going, Xie Ning, who was sitting behind Qin Feng, was happy and relaxed, and he and Xu Banxia also chatted warmly.
After a few conversations, even the title was changed.
"A-Ning, do you know who that woman is?"
Xie Ning looked in the direction Xu Banxia pointed, and unexpectedly bumped into the figures of Xiao Yan and Gu Qingyun, "This is Prime Minister Gu Cheng's only daughter, Gu Qingyun." ”
"Oh," a hint of understanding flashed in Xu Banxia's eyes. "It seems that the rumors are true, this Miss Gu is really a stunning beauty."
Xie Ning laughed when he heard this, and then raised his eyes to look at Gu Qingyun. But seeing that she was dressed in a red gauze dress, her hair was decorated with beaded flowers and jade hairpins, and her eyes were full of tenderness, but she was alone.
"The little girl is the father of the family, I wish His Highness a safe return to Beijing." Gu Qingyun held the wine bottle handed by the palace maid on the side, with a smile on her face.
Qin Feng glanced at her, but he looked like he was smiling but not smiling, and his right arm was raised inadvertently. A little bandaged gauze comes out of the cuffs.
Gu Qingyun saw him move. The expression couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, but after being silent for a while, a pair of beautiful eyes were already shining with water, and the chin was raised. He raised his hand and drank all the wine in the bottle.
However, Qin Feng did not return the favor. Even the tone of his voice was only faint. "Thank you."
What kind of person Qin Feng is, Xie Ning knows very well in his heart. At this time, seeing his cold attitude, his heart moved. It's not hard to guess why.
Gu Qingyun's love for King An is not a secret matter in Beijing, and Qin Feng already has a heart, so naturally he will not give her any wrong hints, and let this affection continue to grow wantonly.
It's better to be embarrassed than to be obsessed. Xie Ning very much agreed with Qin Feng's approach, so he rushed to speak before Xiao Yan could cry out and say unfairly: "Sister Gu, I am entering the palace for the first time today, and I am not familiar with life, can you take me around?" ”
After all, it is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and as long as you don't move around at will, you can still be allowed to enjoy the scenery outside the hall.
Gu Qingyun raised her head, her face was still a little sad, and it took a long time to pull out a reluctant smile at Xie Ning, "Okay, the sister of the Wei family is also at the banquet, I'll take you to find her first." ”
When Qin Feng heard this, he turned his head and glanced at Xie Ning inquiringly. Xie Ning didn't understand what he meant, so he didn't respond, just nodded to Gu Qingyun and got up and walked towards her.
"Ah Ning, wait a minute," Xu Banxia also stood up, Xie Ning stopped and looked back, but saw a smile on the corner of her mouth, and turned to Gu Qingyun and said, "After sitting for so long, I also want to go out for a walk, I don't know if Miss Gu minds?" ”
Yes? Xie Ning suddenly became entangled, Qin Feng was Gu Qingyun's favorite person, and he seemed to be in love with Xu Banxia. Wouldn't it be embarrassing if these two people were to get together?
Miss Xu said with a smile, "It seems that Qin Feng's deliberate refusal has never happened, but in the blink of an eye, Gu Qingyun's face is full of smiles, "I have always admired people with outstanding medical skills, and it is too late to rejoice in my heart to be able to walk with you, so how can I mind?" ”
Xu Banxia glanced at her, and then said, "That's fine." ”
And the three of them went out together. Although there were many guests along the way, Xie Ning also saw a lot of familiar figures, most of which were noblewomen in Beijing.
Of course, Xie Ning naturally would not miss the ladies of the Hou Mansion who were at the top. However, there were three of Xiang's mother and daughter, and she didn't stay long, and after greeting everyone in turn, she just chatted with her grandmother and Mama Qin a few more words, and then pulled Wei Tingcheng, who came over, and walked out of the hall together.
In fact, at first, it was just a pretext to say that he wanted to go out for a walk, but Xie Ning's real intention was to keep Gu Qingyun away from Qin Feng's side.
The bystander was clear, even on the day the city tower said goodbye, she had never heard of Qin Feng's refusal, but Xie Ning could also see Qin Feng's alienation from Gu Qingyun.
The grace of her youth is the love of men and women in her heart, but perhaps in Qin Feng's eyes, this is just an old thing that has long been let go.
Gu Qingyun took a lot of care of her, and she couldn't watch her fall deeper and deeper, but she was indifferent.
It's just that how to say this, but it's worth thinking about it.
A few people walked to a pavilion outside the hall, Xie Ning was about to separate the other two, and when he said a few words to Gu Qingyun in private, his sleeve was suddenly tugged.
"Something?" Xie Ning stopped and looked at Wei Chengcheng.
There was no need to be polite between the two, and seeing that they were left behind, Wei Qingcheng stood on tiptoe and leaned into her ear and whispered, "Sister Xie, my brother wants to see you later." ”
When Xie Ning walked by, he didn't find Wei Qingyang's figure at the banquet, so he only thought that he didn't go to the banquet, and his heart was relieved. But when he heard the words at this time, he couldn't help but feel inexplicable, and raised his eyes to look at Wei Qingcheng, who had a well-behaved expression, but he didn't know what to say, so he had to say: "I don't know me well in the palace, I don't know where he is at the moment?" ”
"Just when we came to the Dusk Cloud Pavilion, I didn't know that Wei Qingcheng didn't know that the marriage contract between the two mansions was for a while, so it was natural for her brother to spread the word, "I'll take you there." ”
The seven-day period has not yet arrived, Xie Ning has not yet made up his mind in his heart, and he has not been prepared to deal with Wei Qingyang, but today's sudden banquet still made the two of them meet in advance before August 20.
Wei Qingyang's attitude is clear enough, on the other hand, Xie Ning, although her father has not said it explicitly, he is also happy to see it in the letter, not to mention that Mama Qin has always supported it, if it is someone else, I am afraid that it has already agreed. (To be continued.) )
