Chapter 204: Strange
It was the first time they had sat in the same carriage, but they had nothing to say, and there was a long silence in the delicate but not spacious carriage.
It wasn't until about half of the distance was walked that the county lord of Danyang seemed to feel that it was not appropriate to remain silent like this, so he spoke: "You are okay, your face is not very good." ”
They already live in the same courtyard, close to each other, and she naturally knows when the lights will go out in An Lan's house these two nights. Today, An Lan wore an Ai Qing makeup jacket, the color and pattern were suitable for her, but such a light color made her complexion a little pale, and it looked like there was no good news.
"It's fine." An Lan nodded slightly, and also glanced at the county lord of Danyang, she remembered that the last time the county lord of Danyang went to Tongquetai, it was the same as today, wearing a red dress, she couldn't remember the specific tricks at that time, but she remembered the bright red, which was obviously so flamboyant, but it was so delicious when worn on her, and it would not be aggressive.
The county lord of Danyang spoke first, and An Lan felt that it seemed a little inappropriate to answer only two words, so she said again: "When I first came out, I didn't seem to see Xie Lanhe and Fang Yuhui. ”
The county lord of Danyang said: "They went with their respective husbands. ”
An Lan nodded, and asked again, "Mr. Guanghan has also passed?" ”
Just before she left the Tianshu Palace, she went to Bai Guanghan to say goodbye, only to know that Bai Guanghan was no longer in the hall.
"It should be." Speaking of this, the county lord of Danyang glanced at An Lan, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Is the agreement between you and me, does Jing Gongzi already know?" ”
An Lan nodded: "The county lord proposed this contract in Baiyuan at that time, so he couldn't hide it from Jing Gongzi." ”
The county lord of Danyang was silent. An Lan said again: "Don't worry, the county lord. Jing Gongzi did not object. ”
The county lord of Danyang smiled. He shook his head slightly, but said nothing.
……
After getting out of the car at the entrance of Kou Nianlin, An Lan looked to both sides and sighed quietly, there is no change here, but silver has been added everywhere. As she was about to go inside, she lowered her eyes and looked ahead. Just three or four paces away, the ground was slightly concave, and it didn't look so obvious because the snow had been cleared, but on a rainy day, a shallow puddle of water would accumulate there.
She remembered the last Jinxiang meeting, she just fell on the puddle of water, covered in mud, and finally was late, thinking it was over. But she didn't expect Jing Yan Gongzi to sue her a result that she couldn't believe......
"Miss Anlan." After the county lord of Danyang got out of the car, he looked at An Lan looking at a place in a daze. And there were many luxurious carriages parked around, and those who got out of the car recognized her identity, and some guessed An Lan's identity, and were about to come up to say hello, so she called An Lan.
An Lan came back to her senses, smiled at the county lord of Danyang, and was about to walk inside. It's just that as soon as she opened her legs, she saw the carriage of Jingfu, she paused, and couldn't help stopping, and after a while, she really saw Jing Yan get out of the car. Among the guests who came to Ninglin, there were few who didn't know Jing Yan Gongzi, and many of them were thinking of ways to get out of Jing Mansion, so when Jing Yan Gongzi got off the bus, several guests who had just gotten off the car surrounded him.
Jing Yan has long been accustomed to such occasions, and he is comfortable with it, and while greeting others, he didn't forget to take a look at An Lan. That glance was so bland, so flat that it didn't look like it was looking, but sweeping. Ever since he got out of the car, An Lan had been looking at him, so when he looked at him from afar, he met An Lan's gaze.
It's just that he just glanced at it, or rather, glanced at it lightly, a look that didn't have any content, and then looked away.
An Lan was slightly stunned, and the county lord of Danyang next to him looked at An Lan's inexplicably lonely figure, and said in a low voice: "Let's go, let's not delay time." ”
An Lan glanced at Jing Yan again, and saw that the other party didn't seem to have any reaction, so she withdrew her gaze and entered the Sleepy Forest with the county lord of Danyang.
After walking for a while, she couldn't help but look back again, but saw that the well-dressed man was still as usual, and couldn't find anything wrong. However, for some reason, she vaguely felt that something was wrong in her heart, but she couldn't say what was wrong.
……
There are a lot of people who come to Sleepy Forest, but there are still few people who enter Tongquetai and go out to a few great incense masters.
More than eighty percent of the people who came to Koumiao Lin today came for the Douxiang of the Great Incense Society, and they also heard that today's Douxiang, the protagonist was replaced by a newcomer from the Changxiang Palace.
And the identities of these newcomers have already been dug out, so naturally some people know about the contest between An Lan and the county lord of Danyang. An Lan's name is not well-known, but the reputation of the county lord of Danyang is not small, especially under the arrangement of Mrs. Qingyao, in Chang'an City, there are almost no big families who love incense who don't know the county lord of Danyang, so today, some gambling houses even opened a gambling game for the two of them.
Yesterday, after the golden finch knew about the gambling game, he inquired a little, and his eyes were round, and more than eighty percent of the people pressed the county lord of Danyang to win. This morning, the golden finch went to inquire again, and found that there were new changes in the gambling game, one was that there were two more people pressing An Lan, and the other was that several new gambling games were opened. In addition to winning and losing each game, the score prediction of each game is also used by the people in the gambling house to make a fuss.
It turns out that the final result of these three competitions is not determined by winning or losing alone, but by the sum of the scores of the three games.
The first one, the literary test, accounted for 20 points.
An Lan stepped on the Twin Pavilions of Tongque Terrace, and saw that the table had been set up inside, and the pen and ink had been set up, and on the other side, several great incense masters were basically present. An Lan and the county lord of Danyang took their dresses, saluted them, and then passed the maid's signal to enter the seat.
It's just that before they could sit down, Xie Lanhe and Fang Yuhui also arrived, and after several people saluted separately, they took their seats together.
When the maid distributed the test questions, An Lan raised her eyes and looked at Bai Guanghan in the distance.
At this time, Bai Guanghan also happened to look at her, but the eye contact was shorter than just now, and An Lan even thought it was an illusion. At this moment, Jing Yan Gongzi arrived, and walked up the stairs on the other side to the Twin Pavilions, and then sat down next to Bai Guanghan.
Those two almost identical faces danced in An Lan's eyes, making her slightly stunned, she turned her gaze from Bai Guanghan's face to Jing Yan, looked at it for a long time, and still couldn't find anything wrong, but, for some reason, the strange feeling in her heart has always been there.
Why? (To be continued......)
