Chapter 197: The Old Man Reunites

It's just a half-grown child, but he just looks like he is lustful, and it's really weird to look at. "Hey, saliva is pouring out." Zhong Ziyuan couldn't help but sneer.

"What!" Jerodor came back to her senses, and hurriedly put down her glass and wiped her chin carelessly. Then he glanced back and said in surprise: "How did you escape from the cold palace like a crazy woman?" ”

Zhong Ziyuan frowned and said angrily: "First, I'm not a crazy woman. Second, I did not escape, but you Khan asked me to come out. ”

"Anything, don't worry about it so much." Yelutar took her wrist with great interest, pointed to a dancing girl in the audience, and said, "What do you think of her?" Later, I want to ask Mrs. Xiao to go back. ”

Zhong Ziyuan subconsciously looked in the direction he was pointing, only to find that the dancing girl he was referring to was actually the little princess Gemei of the Yue clan. Zhong Ziyuan couldn't help but feel sorry for Shangmei Muran's dim eyes. No matter how energetic, ambitious, and ambitious Gemei was before entering Beijing. Today it seems like a big joke.

"Poof", Xiao Yixing, who was sitting opposite him, saw this scene and couldn't help laughing. He threw down the pigeon rack that was gnawed all over in his hand, and sneered: "It's ridiculous that you haven't grown all your hair, and you still want to learn from others to play with women." Do you want her to go back? Is it to feed you or change your diaper? His words, though vulgar, drew laughter from all around them, and the women's eyes grew more and more contemptuous when they looked at Jerod.

Xiao Yixing looked back at Mrs. Xiao and hugged his fist, and said with a smile: "Sister." If you love your brother, why don't you give me this dancing girl? There happens to be a girl who pours the toilet in my house. ”

Jerodel was furious, and he stood up. He threw the wine cup in his hand and kicked over the table full of food in front of him. Pointing at Xiao Yixing's nose and shouting angrily: "Aren't you just a few years older than me, trying to suppress me everywhere!" Let's compare, if anyone wins, this dancing girl will belong to whom, how? ”

"Compare to compare." Not to be outdone, Xiao Yixing kicked over the table in front of him, his brown eyes. There was a flash of excitement and tyranny.

Zhong Ziyuan was taken aback by this sudden hot scene, but the people around him didn't have any impact at all, and they should be dancing. It seems that jokes and jokes have long been commonplace. However, Gemei, who was in the center of the storm, was a little pale, and her originally light dance steps seemed to have become a little messy.

Mrs. Xiao pressed the corner of her forehead and said with a headache: "The two of you are going to make trouble when you meet." It's all from small to big. It's not over yet. ”

Xiao Yixing snorted coldly and said, "Sister, you know that he and I have been mortal enemies since childhood, why do you want to invite him to my celebration banquet?" ”

"Nonsense." Mrs. Xiao persuaded bitterly: "The two of you, one is the future king of the Southern Courtyard and the other is the future king of the Northern Courtyard. We have to work together and support each other. In order to ensure the stability of my Khan's country and the obedience of the surrounding tribes. And contend with the emperor of the Central Plains. You are always making such a fuss, so that the Khan can rest assured that the throne of the two houses will be handed over to you to inherit. ”

Xiao Yixing and Yelu Tuo'er glanced at each other, snorted coldly, and turned their heads. Mrs. Xiao glanced at the maid beside her. The maid immediately brought them two glasses of wine.

Mrs. Xiao took the lead in raising the wine glass in her hand and said with a smile: "Okay, why don't we have a drink and forget the old grievances?" Her voice was soft and pleasant, yet majestic. Xiao Yixing, although Yelu Tuo'er still looked at the other party unpleasantly, but in front of Mrs. Xiao, she didn't dare to continue to be presumptuous. The two of them had to snort coldly, each took a wine glass, and sat down after a glass of Mrs. Xiao.

Zhong Ziyuan didn't understand a word of what they said earlier. Her eyes were burning on the golden roast lamb on the ground. It wasn't that she was hungry, but that her breathing was thickened by a small, delicate silver knife stuck in the piece of mutton.

The silver blade was narrow, but sharp, and the hilt was inlaid with a large ruby, which was not ordinary at first glance. If you could use it to cut Jerodreeth's throat, it shouldn't be too difficult.

After Jerry sat down in a slump of sorrow, he was still angry. He glanced at Zhong Ziyuan beside him, and said angrily: "Isn't there anything for you to eat in the cold palace?" looks like a starving ghost reincarnated, which is really unlucky. ”

Mrs. Xiao, who happened to be on the top, also casually ordered: "Come on, clean up the ground, and serve the second table according to the previous dishes." After receiving the order, a maid immediately stepped forward to clean up the table that had been kicked over, as well as the dishes and food scattered all over the ground.

Zhong Ziyuan couldn't pick up the silver knife in front of everyone, so he could only watch it be picked up by the maid along with the soiled piece of mutton.

"Don't look at it, there will be fresh and hot mutton later, it's really embarrassing." The impatient voice of Yelu Tuo'er in her ears made Zhong Ziyuan's whole body stiffen, she secretly glanced at Talena beside her, and saw that her eyes looking at her were full of suspicion and vigilance, Zhong Ziyuan immediately withdrew her overly hot eyes.

The maids were quick to get their hands and feet on the table, and it wasn't long before the table in front of them was re-arranged, with all sorts of delicacies and mellow spirits. There was still a dish of roast mutton in it, but the mutton was sliced into thin slices and neatly stacked on the plate, so the silver knife naturally wouldn't be presented. Zhong Ziyuan let out a long sigh of disappointment.

However, Yelu Tuo'er easily pushed the plate of mutton slices as thin as cicada wings in front of her, and said with a very bad attitude: "Hey, crazy woman, eat some of them quickly, don't wait until you don't have them and stare at them like a dog." ”

The corners of Zhong Ziyuan's mouth slowly raised, revealing a sneering smile, and said faintly: "I remember that snowy night more than a year ago, when I invited you to eat ramen, I was not so polite. ”

When she first saw Jerod, she felt that he was a little familiar, and it really reminded her of it when she thought about it. He is the little beggar who blocked himself and cardamom in the alley of Fengyue Street with a wooden stick more than a year ago, intending to rob food. I remember that I was suspicious of his background at that time, so I took care to look at him a few more times, but I didn't expect him to be really a noble prince in distress.

A year of time. If it is not long, it is not short, and it will make a developing boy rise a lot at once. But it won't make a big change in his appearance. Especially his wolf-like eyes, which are always particularly impressive.

Although Zhong Ziyuan couldn't bear Yelu'er's previous stubbornness, he was the only one in the room who had some involvement with her, so she chose to sit down next to him without hesitation.

Listening to Zhong Ziyuan's ridicule, Yelu Tu'er's eyes widened as if she had seen a ghost. He looked her up and down in astonishment, scratching his head. Puzzled: "I remember that it was a man that day!" ”

Zhong Ziyuan smiled coldly and said, "If you are allowed to pretend to be a beggar, I can't pretend to be a man?" ”

The word "beggar" came out of her mouth. Jerodel had no more doubts. He rubbed his fingers and smiled, and for the first time his dark eyes jumped with joy, and said, "I have always wanted to find an opportunity to thank you, but unfortunately you have not appeared since you left the face money that day." And a month later my servants found me. Took me back to Shangjing. I thought I would never be able to say thank you in person in my life, but I didn't expect to meet again in Shangjing after going around a circle. ”

"A month?" Zhong Ziyuan frowned and said, "I remember that after the weather became warmer, I also specially sent Cardamom to Ramen Liu to find you." He said that you will eat his noodles every day, but the time is not sure. I thought you had been staying in Chang'an City! ”

When Yelu Tuo'er heard this, he snorted angrily: "Dead old man, I am afraid that you will ask him for silver" The two of them chattered head to head, but there was a lot to say. caused Mrs. Xiao and Xiao Yixing to look at them frequently.

At this moment, there was a chaotic and powerful footsteps outside the house. Surrounded by the guards, Jeruteret stepped into the house. He glanced around at everyone and smiled with satisfaction: "The banquet is not over yet, it seems that it is not too late for me to come." ”

Now that it was getting dark, the maids lit all the butter lamps in the house, and the room was as if it were day, and all eyes were on Jerutereth.

Mrs. Xiao smiled, took the lead in getting up and saluting, "I've seen the Khan." When she had finished her salute, she respectfully relinquished her seat, but she bowed down and sat beside him.

"I've seen the Khan." All the ladies, dancers, and maids in the house respectfully saluted to Jerodreh, who was sitting in the center. Only Yelu'er, Zhong Ziyuan still sat loudly, neither saluting nor greeting.

Madame Xiao frowned, ignoring Yelu'er's rudeness, but said in standard Chinese: "Madame Zhong, when you see the Khan, why don't you give a big salute?" ”

Zhong Ziyuan glanced at her, the corners of her mouth raised, and said, "It turns out that Mrs. Xiao can also speak Chinese. But he is your Khan, not mine, and I don't seem to need to salute. After saying that, she casually withdrew her gaze, and no longer paid attention to the surprised gazes of everyone.

Mrs. Xiao's face was cold, and her eyes flashed with a sharp light. She bit her lip, stared at Yelu Tilie with watery eyes, and said infinitely aggrieved: "Khan, Madam Zhong's words are thorny, and her actions are extremely rude and presumptuous. If I don't punish her, how can I restrain the other sisters? She deliberately said this in Chinese, just to let Zhong Ziyuan understand it.

Yelu Tilie smiled indifferently and said, "I forgot to tell you, she didn't know our etiquette when she first came to Beijing, and she saved my life at Juchong Pass, so there is no need to be too harsh on her in some small matters." You are the oldest of all the ladies, so please bear with me. ”

Yelu Tilie's rare gentle words and pleading made Mrs. Xiao's heart stagnate, and her face became a little ugly. However, Mrs. Xiao is Mrs. Xiao after all, almost a moment's effort, she immediately hid the jealousy in her eyes, the corners of her mouth rose, and said with a smile: "No wonder the Khan would let Talena serve Mrs. Zhong, it turns out that she actually saved the Khan's life, that is really a great achievement, and there are some small things to do." When she said this, her eyes glanced at Zhong Ziyuan, who was sitting on the bottom and half-lowered her eyes.

The woman in front of her has beautiful facial features, a slender figure, and a slender waist. Wearing their Khitan royal costumes, they are luxurious and heroic, and heroic and feminine. Her skin, in particular, is as white and tender as freshly dried milk tofu (of course, this is due to months of sunshine). This kind of taste is not possessed by herself, including all the ladies here, and she is jealous and hateful in her heart. But this jealousy must be carefully hidden in front of Jerodreh.

Yelu Tilie looked at Zhong Ziyuan with slightly lowered eyes playfully, others might think that she was afraid or shy, only he knew that she was hiding the hatred and murderous spirit in her eyes.

It's quite interesting to think about, knowing that the enemy is right in front of you, but the feeling of helplessness must be as uncomfortable as scratching your heart with a hundred claws! There was a perverted joy in Jeruthereh's heart at this moment! It's like a cat that catches a mouse, and if you don't tease her enough, you can't bear to swallow it in one gulp.

Zhong Ziyuan was mad in his heart, but unfortunately there was no regret in the world, if he had the opportunity to return to that cave. She would not choose to smash the herbs with a stone, but would choose to hit his head directly with a stone, and maybe the next disaster would not have happened. Thinking of this, a suffocating pain suddenly welled up in her chest, and she closed her eyes suddenly, and her face instantly turned pale.

Yelu'er was closest to her, and when she saw this, she couldn't help but say worriedly, "Are you okay?" ”

Zhong Ziyuan reluctantly smiled back and said, "I'm fine!" ”

Xiao Yixing also stared at Zhong Ziyuan with interest, opened his big mouth and said with a smile: "This Han woman is different, look at this complexion, she is really delicate and fair-skinned, like a lamb." Next time I sneak up on Juchong Pass, I'll grab a few and come back to taste it. "He is a vulgar person, and the words he says will naturally not sound good, Mrs. Xiao glanced at Yelu Tilie with some concern, for fear that he would be unhappy.

Yelu Tilie was not angry, but said with a pleasant face: "Don't wait for next time, I remember that the Queen Mother has a few Han women with good looks, and I will talk to the Queen Mother later, and I will pick up two outstanding ones and reward you." ”

"Really?" Xiao Yixing was overjoyed and said, "Thank you Khan." ”

Yelutheret waved his hand casually and said with a smile: "It's just a few women, it's nothing!" ”

He sipped the mellow wine in the silver cup and smiled at the dancing girls. His arrival pushed the atmosphere of the banquet to a high tide, and the ladies were even more enthusiastic, they took turns to fight, openly seducing, secretly teasing, and all kinds of tricks and tricks emerged one after another. Even Mrs. Xiao, who originally had a faint sense of threat, seemed to have turned into a puddle of spring water around him.

It's just that Yelu Tireel didn't seem to be in high spirits, he only leaned on the couch leisurely, coldly watching the woman in front of him fighting for him and jealousy, but the corners of his mouth were filled with a cold sneer. (To be continued.) )
