Chapter 149: Hu Si
The night in early winter was actually not very cold, but in the clouds behind Bowei, the earth dragon had already burned, which made Xu Youshan, who already felt a little burning tonight, even more so hot that she couldn't sleep at all, so she simply sat up and looked at the moon screen window that was ordered by her and was not completely covered, and the bright moon hung high in the air.
Xu Youshan, you have to grow up quickly!
Xie Jing's soft and light whisper appeared in Xu Youshan's mind out of thin air at this time, which made Xu Youshan's little face quickly turn red again, and it couldn't be eliminated for half a day. And Xu Youshan also slandered Xie Jinglai in her heart, you said you are good, why do you say such things, it makes people think crankily, and they can't sleep for half a day, isn't it harmful.
And what does it mean to grow up quickly, Xu Youshan puffed out her face, pulled away the brocade quilt and looked at her thin little body for a few moments, she was stunned, and then suddenly pulled up the quilt and covered her head and lay back, and scolded Xie Jing from head to foot in her heart, a big villain.
Tonight's winter wind seems to be softer than ever, blowing slowly, the soft petals are also swaying slightly in the wind, exuding a faint fragrance of flowers, infiltrating the hearts of sleepless people, and the bright moon and stars in the sky are also sprinkling the bright moonlight and starlight at this time, so that the entire Po Wei Hou Yun is like a layer of silver veil, the beauty is a little illusory, dreaming, in the night when everyone is asleep, the whole Po Wei Houyun is not as beautiful as the world under the moonlight, but unfortunately no one comes to appreciate, until the sky is white, The silver moon fades, and the sun rises in the east.
"Princess. Is it OK to wear this? Wu Lin held a complete set of golden peony lotus green qu water weaving smoke embroidered robes and dresses in his hand, and asked Xu Youshan.
But I didn't sleep well last night, and now Xu Youshan has a pair of panda eyes. Hearing this, he was stunned for a moment, and then asked Wu Lin a little slowly: "Mother Wu, what day is today, why do you want to dress so gorgeously?" ”
Since Wu Lin brought such gorgeous clothes over, according to Xu Youshan's understanding of her, today must be an important day, or a banquet to go to today. Otherwise, with Wu Lin's understanding of her, he would never have taken out such a golden dress for her to change.
"Princess, did you forget?" And sure enough, as Xu Youshan expected. Wu Lin looked at her with some surprise and said: "Princess, there is a plum banquet in the Beiding Palace, didn't you tell the old slave well yesterday, so that the old slave could prepare for the banquet in Beiding Palace?" ”
Orchid viewing in spring. Summer lotus viewing. Chrysanthemums in autumn, plum blossoms in winter, in the four seasons of the gods, the nobles in the mansion of the wealthy are changing the law of feasting and singing, so the name of this banquet is also various, but the plum banquet of the Beiding Wangfu is held every year by the Qi family, and it is very different from other banquets. After all, let's not talk about the others, just the fact that the organizer is the princess Rui of Beiding. Nearly eighty percent of the banquets in Beijing will be compared.
And Xu Youshan is now not only the sister of the princess of the princess of Beiding, but also the identity of the princess of Chu, so of course she can go to this plum banquet, and she can also take this opportunity to let Xu Youshan and the four of them get together, so a long time ago, the four of them made an appointment to go to the Beiding palace for a banquet together.
But last night because of Xie Jing's relationship, Xu Youshan didn't sleep well all night, resulting in her little head still in a chaotic state, and she didn't react for a while, until Wu Lin said this, Xu Youshan patted her forehead speechlessly, and said, "Ouch, I haven't woken up yet, Mother Wu, just wear this dress in your hand." ”
"Yes, Princess." Wu Lin didn't ask Xu Youshan why she didn't sleep well last night, just smiled, and with the assistance of the little maids, she helped Xu Youshan finish changing.
And generally except for those special banquets in the palace, as long as it is a banquet held in the Xu Mansion or the Beiding Palace, Xu Youshan will go there a long time ago, and the Xu Mansion will not say much, as for the Beiding Palace, it is because Xu Youshan knows that if the Qi family holds such a banquet, the old lady Qi and the old lady Zheng will definitely take the Xu family to the Beiding palace early in the morning to wait, and more importantly, to say hello to the old princess of Beiding.
Therefore, Xu Youshan will also go early, and the most important thing she has to do is to see Pei Shi and Xu Yourong, of course, today is no exception, in the early days, Xu Youshan made everything ready, and went to talk to Xie Jing.
"Your Highness, I'll go to the Beiding Mansion first." In the warm pavilion, Xu Youshan saluted Xie Jingfu and said to him.
"So early?" Xie Jing's narrow eyes lifted, and his long eyelashes trembled slightly, as if they had shaken off the slightest light.
"Well, after all, my eldest aunt and eldest sister will go to greet the old princess earlier, so I also want to go to the Beiding Mansion as soon as possible." Xu Youshan hurriedly looked away and replied.
"Oh." Xie Jing replied lightly, and then said, "Then you can go." ”
"Yes, then I'll quit first." Xu Youshan blessed Xie Jing again, and then was about to turn around and leave, but at this time, Xie Jing suddenly called her again, so Xu Youshan hurriedly turned around to look at him, and she just looked back, but fell into a pool of crystal clear lake water, the ripples in it were deep and shallow, and she began to dizzy, and then she could only vaguely hear Xie Jing say, let her wait for him to go with her, and she was dizzy by him, so she immediately nodded and agreed.
And after a while, when Xu Youshan finally came back to her senses, Xie Jing had already gone to Kongshan Residence to take care of business, but before she could react, she saw Chu Dai come and ask strangely: "Princess, why did you go to the Beiding Palace's mansion with the prince for a banquet in the afternoon today, shouldn't you usually leave now?" ”
Chu Dai asked bluntly, but she was pulled into the corner by Wu Lin on the side, and as for Xu Youshan, who finally understood what was going on, she grinded her teeth at this time, and scolded Xie Jing in her heart for being despicable, how could she use the thing that she had the least resistance to him to deal with her, he wanted her to go to the Beiding Mansion with him in the afternoon!
Although, she is likely to be contrary to the yin and the yin.
……
……
The distance from the palace of Chu to the palace of Beiding is not close. The carriage walked unhurriedly, about half an hour's journey, and now. Xu Youshan sat in the same carriage with Xie Jing and walked towards the Beiding Palace. But at this time, the atmosphere in the carriage was not very active, especially Xu Youshan, after she was silent for so long, when Xie Jing still looked calm and calm, Xu Youshan's little face was even more energetic, and her head was completely twisted in the direction of the window. His eyes only looked out of the window through a curtain, and never looked in the direction of Xie Jing.
And Xie Jing ignored Xu Youshan, just leaned on the pillow behind him in the most comfortable position. Slightly closed eyes, indifferent.
So, under the silence of Xie Jing and Xu Youshan, the carriage drove unhurriedly towards the Beiding Palace. And when they are about to arrive at the Beiding Palace. Xie Jing finally spoke first: "Heh are still angry? ”
Xu Youshan was shocked, and then her body was even more deviated, and she didn't answer and ignored Xie Jing, and Xie Jing didn't seem to care about Xu Youshan's indifference, but this has to be said, if this was put in the past, Xie Jing would have been angry a long time ago, but if it had been before. Xu Youshan didn't dare to do this to Xie Jing, but she didn't know when it started. The mode of getting along between the two of them has changed so much.
"Speak."
Xie Jing's cold voice, which sounded low, was transmitted to Xu Youshan's ears, which would make people feel numb, and Xu Youshan couldn't help but tremble, and finally couldn't help but turn her head to look at Xie Jing's beautiful chin, and whispered angrily: "If it were you, wouldn't you be angry?" ”
"Yes."
"What?" Xie Jing's answer was a matter of course, but Xu Youshan was a little angry when she heard it, but she still dared to stare at his good-looking chin tightly, and said in disbelief.
"I won't be angry, if you come to tempt me to be with me, I won't be angry." Xie Jing said softly, looking at Xu Youshan's eyes also bent shallowly, that stunning face in the orange sunlight, so that Xu Youshan's anger that had just a boiling tendency, as if it was poured down by a pouring rain, disappeared without a trace in an instant, and what is anger, she has never seen this kind of thing.
"You... I don't understand what you're talking about. In the end, after Xu Youshan stammered, she turned her eyes away with a red face and didn't dare to look at Xie Jing, but Xie Jing's low laughter sounded softly in the carriage.
And it was also at this time that the Beiding Palace, and Wen Ge's respectful voice came from outside the carriage: "Lord, princess, Beiding Palace" has arrived. ”
Xie Jing got out of the car first, then stretched out his hand back, helped Xu Youshan to board the carriage, and then the two entered the Beiding Mansion together, and Xie Jing and Xu Youshan had just walked into the gate of the palace, but they immediately felt a fierce gaze, so the two turned their heads to look, and when they saw who the owner of this gaze was, Xu Youshan immediately stroked her forehead and sighed, and Xie Jing next to her whispered to her: "Do you need me to help you?" ”
Xie Jing's warm breath touched Xu Youshan's earlobe, making her tremble again, but she still immediately said: "No need, Your Highness, you can go to the front yard first, and I will go to greet the old princess first." ”
"Hmm." Xie Jing glanced at Xu Youshan with a smile in his eyes, then responded lightly and followed the little guy who led the way, while Xu Youshan hung her head in resignation, walked to the imposing person who was waiting on the side, and shouted, "Sister Huan." ”
"Sister Shan, when is the time we said we would be good?" Xu Mingcheng squinted at Xu Youshan and asked.
"Hehe" Xu Youshan haha: "I don't remember, it seems to be after noon?" ”
"Xu Youshan !!"
"Oops, I was wrong."
The plum banquet in the Beiding Palace, is not an ordinary banquet, it is not only the place where the hostesses of the top few gate valve clans in the Shendu meet and communicate, but also the meeting place of various high-ranking officials and ministers, the interests of all parties are entangled, but in the eyes of outsiders, such a complex banquet, for a few people, it is simpler, such as Mrs. Qi and Mrs. Zheng, they came here, the biggest purpose is to say hello to the old princess, as for other purposes, It is not within the consideration of Mrs. Qi and Mrs. Zheng, especially for Mrs. Qi, what is the so-called family interests of the Xu family in front of her is even less worth mentioning.
At this time, on the west side of Shiji, it was also beside Mrs. Qi and Mrs. Zheng. Xu Yourong and several people surrounded the old princess's knees to make her happy, and the entire west side of Shiji was when Xu Mingcheng and Xu Youshan arrived. It was all surrounded by laughter.
"The old ancestor is very happy." Xu Youshan said with a smile.
"Yes, it's rare to be so lively on the west side of Shiji, of course the ancestor is happy." Xu Mingcheng echoed.
After speaking, the two also walked into the room together, and said hello to the old princess of Beiding, the old princess has grown up in recent years, and she faced the juniors, especially Xu Youshan, the youngest junior of their generation. It couldn't be more kind, even Xu Youshan, the thorn in the heart of the old lady Qi, the old princess is no longer so targeted. Instead, they will treat her and Xu Yourong in general...... At least on the surface, it is the same, kind and gentle, but Xu Youshan is the greatest luck for this. So after Xu Mingcheng and Xu Youshan entered the room. In the shouting of Xu Yourong and Xu Mingwen, the atmosphere in the west side of Shiji was still very cheerful.
But after all, when Xu Youshan arrived, it was already afternoon, and the guests in the Beiding Palace's mansion also came one after another, so the Beiding princess Rui took Xu Mingcheng to socialize first, and the old princess was also a little tired at this time, so except for Mrs. Qi and Mrs. Zheng, who could still stay with the old princess, the rest of them were all 2 retreated. And of course, this also includes Xu Yourong, Xu Youshan and Xu Mingwen.
"Say it."
Xu Youshan and the three of them did not leave the west side of Shiji, but just sat down at the stone table in the front yard. Then Xu Yourong and Xu Mingwen looked at Xu Youshan and said such a sentence, but Xu Youshan pretended to be stupid and said, "What did you say?" I don't know what you're talking about, eldest sister and sister-in-law. ”
"Tut-tut, it seems that our princess Chu has a bad memory." After Xu Yourong and Xu Mingwen heard this, they didn't say much, but squinted and slowly approached Xu Youshan, so imposing that Xu Youshan quickly jumped away after a big step, and then said to Xu Yourong and the two: "Two sisters, what can we say, don't be like this, really." ”
Xu Youshan's performance of knowing the current affairs as a junjie made Xu Yourong and Xu Mingwen stop, and then Xu Yourong looked at her with raised eyebrows and asked, "Ken said honestly, don't you understand what we mean?" ”
Xu Youshan's small shoulders collapsed and nodded, Xu Yourong and Xu Mingwen hurriedly grabbed Lie over and asked her what was going on, Xu Youshan had arrived with them in the past, but this time Xu Youshan was so late, which made Xu Yourong and them not strange, so they also "tortured to extract confessions" from Xu Youshan, and when she said that she was fascinated by Xie Jing, she had to agree to come with him, so it was so late that Xu Yourong and Xu Mingwen first despised her. Then he understood her again.
"His Royal Highness the King of Chu's appearance, I'm afraid it is among the best in the entire Great Zhou, and there are almost no people who can compare to him, so it's no wonder you." Xu Yourong shook his head and said.
"That's not necessarily, there are people in the Divine Capital who can be comparable, isn't there still the sixth son of the Nie family......" Xu Ming's voice stopped abruptly in Xu Youshan's wide-eyed shaking head at her, and there was a figure on the side that had already stiffened when the words "six sons of the Nie family" appeared.
Oh my God, can I be nervous anymore? Xu Mingwen looked at Xu Yourong with some apologies, not knowing what to say, and finally could only hold back a sentence: "Sister Rong, I'm sorry." ”
Xu Yourong exhaled deeply, and said to Xu Mingwen with some effort: "Sister Wu, don't be sorry. Xu Yourong wanted to say something more, to comfort Xu Mingwen, and tell her that she was really fine, but she opened her mouth, but she couldn't say anything more, couldn't say anything to show that she was fine, and she wouldn't be heartbroken like this just because of such an easy five words, but no matter how hard she tried, she still couldn't say a word in the end, and silence came unexpectedly, Xu Youshan and Xu Mingwen looked at Xu Yourong whose eyes were suddenly red, and they were sad and speechless.
Some feelings, whether they are too profound, whether they have persisted for too long, have been immersed in the bone marrow in the end, so when they have already understood that there will be no results, when they have already decided to give up, but they can still hurt like this because of a name, and they can't suppress the pain.
In the west side of the rock, in winter, in order to meet the occasion, it is also a new transplant of several plum trees, and the blood-red or pure white plum blossoms, swaying slowly in the winter wind, from time to time there are a few petals with the small wind gently falling to the ground, dyed on the ground a piece of falling flowers, but these beautiful petals, it will not take long to be trampled into mud by the slaves who come and go in the west side of the rock, unrecognizable.
……
……
The Lanzhou Winter Garden in the winter in the palace of the king of Beiding is a courtyard covered by plum blossom petals, and when the wind blows, there are plum blossoms falling everywhere, and the beauty is like heaven. At this time, in the winter garden of Lanzhou, the person Xu Yourong didn't want to see the most had already arrived, and he was still with Qi Xuan.
But seeing Qi Xuan and Nie Suhyun talking and laughing together, Xu Mingxi, who was not far from them, was unhappy, but she didn't have much anger towards Qi Xuan, so most of her grievances went to Nie Suhyun, after all, because of Xu Yourong's relationship, whether it was before or now, she would not have a good impression of Nie Suhyun.
And just after Xu Mingxuan continued to launch anger and attacked Nie Suhyun's eyes not far away for a while, Nie Suhyun finally closed his peach blossom eyes slightly, and then sighed shallowly. And after Nie Suhyun's somewhat helpless look fell into Qi Xuan's eyes, it caused him to chuckle.
"You can't blame Mingxi, but you have insisted on not being taken down by Sister Rong for so many years, but you are a real hero."
The friendship between Qi Xuan and Nie Suli is not ordinary, even with Nie Suhyun, Qi Xuan also takes care of him, and Nie Suhyun himself is also a civil and military all-rounder, and it is even more pleasant to associate with him, so Qi Xuan also sympathizes with Nie Suhyun himself, so in the treatment of him and Xu Yourong, Qi Xuan is rare to stand on a neutral position, and no one will help. That's why he was able to make a joke about Nie Suhyun at this time.
But this kind of joke is usually just a laugh when Nie Suhyun hears it, but at this time, after hearing this, Nie Suhyun actually frowned even more and didn't speak, and some complicated and even sad looks suddenly surged in those peach blossom eyes, which made Qi Xuan surprised, and then asked, "Suhyun, what's wrong with you?" ”
What's wrong? He didn't know what was wrong, but when he thought of Xu Yourong's sad face in King Li's mansion that day, when he shook his head at him and refused his expression, Nie Suhyun's heart actually felt throbbing, which was a feeling that he had never felt in his life, even on the day Xu Youshan and Chu King Xie Jing got married, he didn't feel like this, at that time he thought that the feeling of being immersed in ice water at that time was the most painful, but wasn't that the case?
"Brother Qi, I don't know what's wrong with me now." Nie Suhyun lowered his eyes, making it impossible to see his eyes clearly.
And before Qi Xuan could ask again in surprise, there was already a voice from the other side of the gate, Qi Pei, the king of Beiding, and Rui, the princess of Beiding, were here, and this also meant that the plum banquet had officially begun.
The sound of silk and bamboo sounded pleasantly, and the dancers were also dancing on the round stage, and in the staggered manner, everyone's happy faces were within reach, but in these happy faces, Nie Suhyun's handsome face without smiling was also very obvious for a while, but everyone else ignored the past, as if Nie Suhyun was not out of place in this banquet, only Qi Xuan was different.
Since he just noticed that something was wrong with Nie Suhun, Qi Xuan had been watching him a little intentionally or unintentionally, worried about whether something bad had happened to him, but this attention made Qi Xuan discover something a little amazing, because Qi Xuan actually found that after Nie Suhyun started the banquet, the direction that he looked at the most was the Xu family's side, and at this time, there were only Xu Yourong and Xu Mingwen in the Xu family, Xu Mingcheng and Xu Youshan went back to the Qi family and the Chu King Xie Jing. So who is Nie Suhyun most likely looking at?
Xu Yourong!!
Qi Xuan was startled at first, and then frowned, and he had been paying attention to Nie Suhyun, but Xu Minghuan next to him had also been paying attention to him, at this time, after seeing him suddenly frowning, Xu Minghuan also asked, "Cousin Xuan, what's wrong?" (To be continued.) )
