Chapter 13: Light Gold Satin
It's been too many years to only look at him, so now I can only see him. Or in the beginning, in her eyes, she could only see him?
In fact, even Xu Yourong himself doesn't know the answer anymore.
I liked it for too long, too long, so now, even if it is like Xu Mingcheng said, it is clear that Nie Suhyun has been tempted, but that person is not her, Xu Yourong should give up.
After all, after so many years of chasing after him, he has never given up, but the person who finally made him tempted was not her, which has already explained everything.
But the facts can be so simple and clear, so what about her feelings, how simple and clear? Or should I say, how can it be simple and straightforward?
"Mingcheng," Xu Yourong didn't understand, so she looked at Xu Mingcheng and asked quietly: "It turns out that the truth of the facts can be so simple and clear, what about feelings?" So how do you make it simple and clear after so many years? Ming, do you know the answer? β
At the foot of Beiguo Mountain, there is a rhododendron field, every spring, it blooms thousands of purples and thousands of reds, spreads to the sky like fire, and is amazingly beautiful. And this spring, they also came as scheduled, and when every petal was in full bloom, when the gray sand splashed by the horses' hooves passed them, and when the wind blew softly through them, this field of purple cuckoos remained silent and angry to the ends of the earth.
At this time, Xu Mingcheng looked at Xu Yourong, who was quietly following Nie Suhyun's figure, and suddenly became silent, and some shallow emotions in his eyes also spread far away, far away.
But she doesn't know what the answer is.
On the second day of the hunting conference, Pei's family left, and on the high platform of Jiangzuo's Xu family, Xu Youshan and the four of them appeared there for the first time, although they missed the grand opening of the first day, but today, Xu Youshan, who participated in the hunting conference for the first time, still appreciated this so-called grand festival.
People's high emotions, hunting pennants in the wind. The long and heavy bells, as well as the sky-high platforms made of white jade, shine in the sun, solemn and awe-inspiring.
Xu Youshan has seen the prosperous Shendu. The luxurious Xu Mansion has also seen the "center" of today, the most glorious and magnificent royal palace; But in the Beiguo Garden at the foot of Beiguo Mountain, this land with a sense of boldness and desolation is the scenery that Xu Youshan has seen for the first time.
"This Beiguo Beyuan is not very far from the gods. Why does it have a feeling of desolation and boundlessness in the desert north. β
Xu Youshan muttered.
"You don't know." Xu Mingwen, who was beside Xu Youshan, explained to her: "Back then, because of this Beiguo Mountain, there was the style of Mobei, and Gaozu gave it to the Nie family who were originally born in the Mobei area. β
Xu Mingwen gave Xu Youshan a little knowledge of the gods, but she didn't know that Xu Yourong and Xu Mingcheng were silent for a long time.
At the entrance of Beiguo Mountain, the contestants have almost entered Beiguo Mountain, so the people outside Beiguo Mountain gradually dispersed, just waiting for the return of these brave teenagers and girls in the afternoon.
Speaking of which, among the contestants of this hunting tournament, it is just like in previous years. Because of the legend of the Holy Emperor at the beginning, there were many women who came to participate in this hunting conference, but these women were all birds who hoped to leap into a branch and become a phoenix.
But at this time, when the people outside Beiguo Mountain were almost scattered, there were still a few people left on the high platform of the Xu family. Needless to say, of course, it is Xu Youshan and the four.
But now, the atmosphere between them is very strange.
"What happened to the two of them?" Xu Youshan said in a low voice.
Because the contestants all went to Beiguo Mountain to hunt. Xu Youshan and Xu Mingwen also returned to Xu Yourong's side, but when they came over, Xu Youshan and the two were shocked by this strange atmosphere.
"I don't know, maybe I ate something wrong." Xu Mingwen replied very simply.
"I see." And Xu Youshan also immediately understood and sighed.
But just when Xu Youshan and Xu Mingwen looked like they all knew each other, they seemed to forget that Xu Yourong and Xu Mingcheng were not far from them, and the atmosphere was very strange just now. also because of Xu Youshan and the two, they suddenly changed.
"What were you two talking about?" Xu Mingxi's gentle and dripping voice suddenly approached Xu Youshan and Xu Mingwen.
"No, no, we're not talking about anything." The two of them trembled by Xu Mingxi's voice, and turned around and smiled in fright.
"Oh, really?" At this time, Xu Yourong, who also approached Xu Youshan and Xu Ming's wife, smiled so brightly that she said frighteningly: "But I just heard the two of you say that I ate the wrong thing with Mingxi?" β
"No, no, no." Xu Youshan and Xu Mingwen waved their hands as quickly as they denied.
"Looks like we misunderstood you."
"That's, that's ouch, the gentleman doesn't use his hands to feed!"
"I'm sorry, we're not gentlemen, we're women who 'villains and women are hard to raise'...... Hey, you two are not allowed to run, stop me. β
"Fools stand still!!"
ββ¦β¦β
The pennant was hunting in the wind, and the melodious laughter was also floating to the sky in the wind, and I really don't know who the four of Xu Youshan should thank whom, in their turbulent years, they can meet each other; It is possible to share everything together; We can move into the future together.
****

In the afternoon, the contestants of this hunting meeting have come back one after another, and as night falls, a huge bonfire has gradually been set up on the vast grassland outside the entrance of Beiguo Mountain, and the green smoke billowed straight up to the Nine Heavens, like a signal to lead the lost people to go home.
"The feast is about to begin."
Although the hunting conference was only held for five days in total, the banquet held at the same time was not counted like this, and yesterday, on the first night of the hunting conference, the banquet was also held, but Xu Youshan and the four did not participate. The reason, of course, is that Xu Yourong said that he was not feeling well in the morning, so naturally it was not good to recover as soon as he arrived at the banquet, so last night, Xu Youshan and the three of them accompanied Xu Yourong and stayed in the small building.
But, today is different.
Just after Shen Shi, Xu Youshan and the four of them accompanied Mrs. Qi and Mrs. Zheng to have dinner, and then said goodbye and returned to the small building. We're ready for tonight's feast.
"It's about to start, but Miss, have you done well?"
Snow garden, in a small building. Xu Youshan and the three of them finished freshening up and changing their clothes early, but Xu Yourong was still picking and choosing, as if none of the clothes were to her liking.
"Don't talk about it, come and help me choose."
"Isn't this one very good?" Xu Mingcheng was the first to walk over and picked up a piece of clothing casually. Said to Xu Yourong.
But Xu Yourong looked at Xu Mingming's casually picked clothes and frowned, "When did your vision become so bad." β
Bad?
The clothes Xu Mingcheng was holding were a pleated skirt embroidered with large clusters of brocade flowers and peony patterns, although it was not as unique, but it couldn't bear the word bad, right? So Xu Mingcheng threw the pleated skirt in his hand to Xu Yourong, who was buried in the pile of clothes, and said, "You're enough, maybe Nie Suhyun won't go tonight, can you not be so exaggerated?" β
Yes, Xu Yourong is now for such an abnormal reason. In fact, there is no need to guess, of course, it is because of Nie Suhyun.
And now, Xu Yourong is still so obsessed with Nie Suhyun, in fact, Xu Mingrong is not so angry with them than he expected. After all, they have also been imperceptibly influenced for a long time; After all, for Nie Suhyun, Xu Yourong's appearance is what they know.
However, no matter how used to it, people still have a bottom line, so when Xu Yourong has been grinding for nearly an hour. After Xu Youshan and the three of them secretly glanced at each other, Xu Mingcheng suddenly stepped forward and knocked down Xu Yourong.
"Hey, what are you doing?"
"What? You'll find out in a moment. β
Xu Yourong was inexplicably pounced by Xu Ming, but after a while. She understood, "Ah~~~ Don't, that's ugly...... Oh, my God!!! β
So, in the end, Xu Yourong was forcibly changed by Xu Youshan and the others, wearing a light gold satin round-neck cardigan with red and white trim, and a pleated skirt embroidered with large brocade flowers and peony patterns. Went to the banquet tonight.
Tonight's banquet was held in front of the entrance of Beiguo Mountain, on the extremely vast grassland, and at this time the sky was dark, night fell, and the good weather of clear and cloudless sky made today's pale yellow moon sprinkle a clear brilliance, and the twinkling stars in the sky were also woven into a boundless star curtain with a brightness that Xu Youshan and the four had never seen.
"It's beautiful." Xu Youshan muttered dumbfoundedly.
The Shendu Imperial Capital is also beautiful, but its beauty is too prosperous, and the prosperity of the lights of ten thousand households sometimes covers the stars in the sky, so Xu Yourong, Xu Mingcheng and Xu Mingwen, who have been in the imperial capital for many years, are also the same as Xu Youshan, and they can't appreciate the beautiful scenery at this time.
And the hunting conference is held every three years, counting the last one, among the four Xu Youshan, the eldest Xu Yourong is only thirteen years old, but it was the hunting conference at that time, because the Xu family bumped into Xu Mingxi's marriage, so in the last hunting conference, the Xu family just sent Xu Mao and Xu Xi to rush to the faΓ§ade and it was over.
Therefore, under the stars in the sky at this time, not only Xu Youshan was stunned, but the three people behind her were exactly the same.
"Yo, aren't these the four girls of our Jiangzuo Xu family, what happened, why are you in a daze here?"
But good things don't last long, Xu Youshan and the four of them were immersed in the shock under the starry sky, and after a while, a particularly familiar cynical voice came from behind them.
"Deming, it's uncomfortable for you not to talk like this, right?" Xu Yourong said coldly.
The person who came was the eldest princess of Deming, and the location of Xu Youshan's four people now was not a place with many people, so Xu Yourong choked back unceremoniously.
"Hah...... Why am I so angry, you are so stupid, you can't say it? β
"Who's stupid, you're not good at the eyes."
"I have bad eyes? Why don't you say that you have long hair and short knowledge, but a few stars can sigh like this. β
"How many stars? Oh~~~ Also, our eldest princess Deming has always been a frequent visitor to reaching out to pick up stars and foolish dreams, and such a sour tone is not once or twice. β
"Xu Yourong, who do you say is reaching out to pick up the stars, a fool is talking about dreams!"
"I didn't say anyone, you don't have to sit down."
"You...... Hmph, this palace doesn't care about Diao Min. β
Three years can change a lot of things, but there are also many things that can't be changed in just three years, such as Xu Yourong and Princess Deming, the fate between the two of them, it is really endless, with the passage of time, there is only a growing trend, and there is no intention to extinguish the drum at all.
But today, these two enemies who don't like each other no matter how they look at each other, after arguing for a long time, when more and more people look sideways, the eldest princess of Deming raised her head at Xu Yourong, snorted coldly and retreated first.
"Who do you say is Diaomin?"
But Xu Yourong didn't care about this, seeing that the eldest princess Deming was surrounded by everyone and was about to leave away, Xu Yourong was angry and ready to step forward to continue the "battle situation" just now. But Xu Yourong only took a small step, and was pulled back by Xu Youshan, who was originally standing far away, looking like we didn't know her very well.
"Sister, calm down." Xu Youshan said.
"That's it, you see that people pay more attention to their image than you." Xu Mingcheng continued.
"Sister Rong, it's not good for you to be like this, if you are treated by who... It's just that if anyone sees it, it hurts so much face. In the end, Xu Mingwen made a big move, which made Xu Yourong quiet down in an instant.
"Okay, for your sake, I'll let her go today."
For our sake?
Xu Youshan and the three of them pouted quietly, for Nie Suhyun's sake.
But anyway, Xu Yourong finally quieted down, and at this banquet, the elders like Mrs. Qi and Mrs. Zheng didn't like to come, so the teenagers and girls became the protagonists, especially after the eldest prince Xie Jing, the second prince Xie Yan and the third prince Xie Wen appeared on behalf of Emperor Zhou Hui, the atmosphere of the whole banquet directly reached **.
"Sassy bag."
And when Xie Jing, who was wearing a warm silk robe embroidered with dragon patterns with gold threads, appeared, Xu Youshan muttered quietly.
"What did you say?" And Xu Yourong, who was sitting next to Xu Youshan, suddenly asked.
"Ah, nothing, nothing." Xu Youshan hurriedly shook her hand.
Regarding her and Xie Jing, Xu Youshan still hasn't told Xu Yourong and the three of them until now, and it's not because she doesn't believe them, it's just about a secret that she can't be revealed, so Xu Youshan doesn't know how to tell them...... Nor can it be said. (To be continued.) )
