Going to the banquet with a post, Xie Ning, who had been reminded by King An, deliberately sat in the corner. But I didn't want to take care of the second daughter of the high school and still bothered to find it, so I stood in front of her without saying a word.

Xie Ning knew that the second daughter's thoughts were nothing more than self-esteem, and felt that with their dignity, they should not talk to her on this occasion. Inevitably attracting attention, Xie Ning took the initiative to speak, and after two moves with Gao Yiyan, he quickly cut into the mess and went straight to the topic.

"The two of you have something, although you say it bluntly."

Gu Qingyun frowned without a trace, and was about to make an inquiry, when he saw a figure move over in an instant, went around to the back of the case, and stood beside Xie Ning.

"Qingyun, it turns out that you know Miss Xie."

Glancing at Xiao Yan, who was unclear, Xie Ning twitched the corners of his mouth, and was about to ask the two girls to leave, when he saw Gu Qingyun, who was dressed in bright red clothes, smiled slightly, moved lightly, walked to the other side of Xie Ning, crossed Xie Ning, and said softly: "Yes, although I have known Miss Xie for a short time, we can talk very well, and we are close friends in the boudoir." ”

As soon as the words fell, she took a seat, Xiao Yan also sat down with her, but Xie Ning, who was standing between the two, was at a loss in his heart, and after his body stiffened, he sat down on the futon sluggishly, looking sideways at Gu Qingyun, doubting in his heart.

This noble concubine of the Prime Minister's Mansion is indeed a good friend, and almost all the young ladies who have an impression of Xie Ning are good friends with her. But if you say that she is a close friend in the boudoir, she is undoubtedly a sister of the Gao family, so she can't take her turn.

Without responding to Xie Ning's questioning look, Gu Qingyun smiled slightly, and turned to Gao Yiyan who was standing in front of the case: "It's about to be a banquet, Sister Yan, go back and sit." ”

At the banquet in King An's Mansion, there were three people in one case, Gao Yiyan had nowhere to sit, glared at Xie Ning unwillingly, and left alone and turned back.

"Qingyun," Xiao Yan leaned closer, supported his cheek with his left hand on the case, and talked to Gu Qingyun with great interest, "I don't know what you sent Ziyue today?" ”

"The summer heat in June is hot, and the third highness is prone to coughing. I didn't know where to send it, but fortunately, the government had ordered someone to collect medical prescriptions, so I selected 100 of them and sent them. I hope that after seeing it, the imperial doctor can be beneficial to His Royal Highness's condition. ”

Xie Ning was caught in the middle, and he could only listen to them boringly, and after thinking about it for a while, he knew that the Ziyue in Xiao Yan's mouth was Qin Feng, the king of An.

"Ziyue has been weak since he was a child, and if he can recover from his illness, I don't know how happy he should be."

"I hope so," Gu Qingyun smiled back and moved her gaze to Xie Ning, "Miss Xie was personally invited by King An, I wonder if I can bring a congratulatory gift today?" ”

Xie Ning replied lightly: "Yes, I am prepared." ”

"I don't know what it is? Is it convenient to take a look at it? ”

"She's early—"

"Knock-knock-knock-"

The golden bell resounded throughout the mansion, covering Xiao Yan's voice, Xie Ning was happy, and then raised his eyes to look at the main banquet in the north, because of the distance, it was only at this time that he noticed Qin Feng, who was sitting in the first place, and vaguely recognized that he had changed into a dark purple dress. The seats on both sides were full, so she couldn't tell which was the Xuan King who wanted to take revenge on her.

Xu was because he had always been sick, Qin Feng did not speak, but the housekeeper who was entertaining at the gate of the mansion earlier said a few words, and then ordered someone to serve the dishes.

After a half-hearted feast, Xie Ning took care of himself and used the bamboo chopsticks in his hand to clip a few dishes, until the dishes in front of him were full, then he stopped, ignoring the surprised eyes on the left and right, and handed the porcelain bowl to Gu Sui's hand.

With a look of surprise on her face, Gu Qingyun smiled and said, "Miss Xie is really good to the maid. ”

"Don't patronize this girl. I'll have to eat some of my own. ”

Xie Ning turned his head and gave Xiao Yan a smile, "Xiao Gongzi can rest assured." ”

There was a Gu Qingyun who was good friends with Gao Yiyan sitting beside her, and Xie Ning was inevitably a little uncomfortable, so she had to bury herself in eating more and get through the aggrieved banquet as soon as possible.

She is not an elegant appearance, which aroused the disgust of Xiao Yan beside her, "I said, you are also a girl, so you can't be reserved?" ”

Xie Ning looked over blankly, and saw the other party raise his hand and point at Gu Qingyun on the other side of her, "Look at Qingyun, women should also look like women, like you eat nonsense, alas..."

Seeing him shaking his head and sighing, Xie Ning frowned depressedly, and looked in the direction of his finger, which was pleasing to the eye, and couldn't help but be stunned.

The girl with a beautiful face sat on the side of the desk, sitting upright, with a pair of jade hands on the desk. I saw her holding a spoon in one hand and a key in the other, moving slowly, and her sleeves moved lightly, revealing the corner of her wrist.

As if sensing Xie Ning's gaze, Gu Qingyun put down the utensils in her hand and asked with a smile, "Miss Xie is in trouble?" ”

Xie Ning came back to her senses when she heard this, and raised her eyes to look at Gu Qingyun, who was dressed in scarlet and had a bright smile, because she felt that this bright color that she couldn't wear set off the girl in front of her.

Seeing a faint suspicion on her face, Xie Ning said frankly: "Miss Gu behaves elegantly, Xie Ning is fascinated for a while, Miss don't care." ”

"How come," the smile on her face did not decrease, and Gu Qingyun said softly: "Thank you for the praise of Miss Xie for this, it is too late for Qingyun to be happy." ”

"Qingyun, do you know where Yiyan has gone?"

Xie Ning raised his head when he heard the sound, and saw a figure approaching in front of the case at an unknown time.

The conversation between the two was interrupted, Gu Qingyun looked at Gao Yiyao who looked anxious, and replied quietly: "Sister Yan was with me before, but when the banquet was about to start, she left. Why didn't she return to her seat? ”

Gao Yiyao frowned, "I don't know where this girl went, the banquet will be dispersed, and she won't come back, it's really out of proportion." ”

Hearing her complain, Xie Ning's eyebrows jumped, and he had a bad premonition in his heart. She was in a hurry to confirm, so she pulled the sleeve of Xiao Yan beside her, and asked in a low voice, "Young Master Xiao, can King Xuan be on the table right now?" ”

Xiao Yan instantly understood what she meant, and when he got up and looked at the main banquet where there were a few empty seats, he didn't see King Xuan's figure, and shook his head, "No." ”

Xie Ning's heart sank, he tugged on Gao Yiyao's sleeve, and said eagerly and softly: "Cousin, go and find Cousin Yan, she may be in the same place as King Xuan!" ”

"What?" This voice was not inaudible, Gao Yiyao had already heard it clearly, but she still asked in disbelief, looking left and right for King Xuan's figure, until her hope was disappointed, "I'm going to tell my mother and ask her to ask King An for help!" ”

After Gao Yiyao pretended to be casual and walked away, Xie Ning said a word to Gu Sui, and also got up and walked out.

"Sister Xie!"

A man's shout came from behind her, Xie Ning's arm was grabbed, she didn't want to attract attention, so she had to stop, "Xiao Gongzi? ”

"The other party may mean you, Gao Yiyan may just be hanging out in the house, you better not go to her."

"No," pulling Xiao Yan out of the banquet place, avoiding everyone's eyes and ears, Xie Ning said the truth in a heavy voice, "King Xuan's target was not me from the beginning, and His Highness invited me to come just under the guise of it. And Gao Yiyan is the person he wants to deal with.

She is just an inconsequential little person, even if she is involved in the affairs of Ruyifang, there is no need for King Xuan to attack her. And Gao Yiyan is different, if something happens to her in King An's Mansion, whether it is His Royal Highness King An, the sixth prince Qin Ze, or the Marquis of Jingyang's Mansion, they will all be injured because of this.
