Chapter 47: A Catastrophe (2)
Today's banquet was undoubtedly a loud slap on her in front of everyone, but it was a pity that he had to do it. He knew that this was all brought by Xiao Chen's family, and she hypocritically said that it was all for his good, and she wanted to help him tell the world that Liang Xiang was from his side, but in fact, he knew very well that the reason why Xiao Chen did this was not only the reason she said, but also her selfish desire to separate the relationship between him and Du Yunjin, so that one day when she was in danger, the Du family would not become his backer.
Her loneliness was hidden by the noise in the hall, and Liang Naixin on Xiao Yu's right was shining brightly, accepting everyone's blessings with the demeanor of a mother. Such a calm and capable woman will be the best choice for the crown princess, and even Xiao Feng can't help but look at her differently.
In the excitement of others, only a pair of eyes have been focused on Du Yunjin's body from the beginning. Seeing that she seemed to ignore the outside world and only drank the stuffy wine in her hand by herself, Xiao Shaokang sighed lightly. This kind of drinking can be seen to be harmful to her injuries but not beneficial, and it seems that he will help her adjust the prescription for regulating her body after returning home.
"Crown Princess, I toast you!"
A familiar voice said unfamiliar words, Du Yunjin was startled by the person in front of him, returned from the wandering world, and looked at Meng Chong.
"General Meng!" Seeing him, Du Yunjin seemed to have returned to that period of time in southern Xinjiang, where she was the real her, not bound by anything, drinking and eating meat with them, saying whatever she wanted, not caring about personal gains and losses, all of them were heading towards one destination.
A smile bloomed on her face for the first time today, and she also raised her glass and said to him: "I heard that General Meng has been promoted to hussar general, and this concubine has been sick before, and she has not had time to congratulate General Meng!" ”
"What a joy!" As soon as Meng Chong was told by her, he blushed and became embarrassed: "The left and right are just leading troops to fight, but it is Meng's duty to contribute to the court and the people!" ”
She smiled at him and drank down the glass in her hand. Meng Chong didn't leave in a hurry, poured her another glass, and said, "Rong Shuai has returned to southern Jiangsu today, and I will toast you another cup for him." ”
"Rong Shuai's wine, why do you want to toast it?" She didn't expect Rong Jingcheng to leave Beijing so soon, and she was still thinking about visiting Jinghou Mansion one day, which could be regarded as breathing.
"I ...... I ......" Meng Chong was asked by her, but he didn't know what to say, and he didn't speak smartly. Qing Ruofeng, who was still under Du Yunjin, helped him explain the reason: "Rong Shuai has accepted General Meng as his righteous son, girl, it stands to reason that you should call a young general or Brother Meng." ”
Rong Jingcheng and Du Bocheng are good friends, and Du Yunjin also calls Rong Jingcheng "Uncle Rong" in private, and it is indeed not wrong to call Meng Chong "big brother". Meng Chong has courage and courage, and more importantly, he is not a reckless man who blindly works hard, Rong Jingcheng accepted him as a righteous son, that is, he has the intention of passing on the Rong family army to him in the future. Such a situation is what Du Yunjin is happy to see, she is happy for Rong Jingcheng and Meng Chong.
"In the future, you will be my big brother Meng!"
"This, I'm afraid it's trespassing, mother." Meng Chong didn't dare to accept it, after all, Du Yunjin was burdened with the name of the crown princess, and if the crown princess called him eldest brother, wouldn't he want the prince to follow and call him eldest brother.
"Brother Meng, please." Xiao Yu also stood up and raised a glass to Meng Chong to drink. This kind of appearance seems to be from Du Yunjin, but the real intention is only clear to Xiao Yu himself, Meng Chong is the heir of the Rong family, so he will naturally become the object of his great efforts. Now that Du Yunjin has built this bridge, how can he not be as good as he is?
"Your Highness kills your subordinates." Meng Chong drank all the wine in his hand, and just as he was about to leave, he was stopped by Qing Ruofeng.
Qing Ruofeng followed Du Bocheng to garrison Crescent City all the year round, facing the boundless Gobi Desert every day, he had long heard that southern Xinjiang was close to the sea, and Meng Chong sneaked into the Yiren that day regardless of his own safety, and investigated the Yiren's lair clearly, and then took Rong Jingcheng to level the Yiren's lair, and never suffer in the future. This kind of adventure, in Qing Ruofeng's opinion, is definitely worth exploring again.
"The strategy is good, but it's a pity that those burned rattan armors." Qing Ruofeng heard Meng Chong briefly mention the process at that time, and it was the rattan armor that was distressed. "Girl, you are really good at it, so it's a legendary thing, you don't leave one or two for me to see."
Du Yunjin laughed out loud when he heard this: "Those rattan armors are not real rattan armors. ”
"What?" It was Meng Chong and Qing Ruofeng who responded, as well as some middle-level generals who went south to level the razor. The burning of the rattan armor actually made many people feel sorry in their hearts, after all, it was a strange battle armor described in the book, and it was really a pity to destroy it like this.
Seeing that everyone was interested, Du Yunjin said the situation that day: "I did have the intention of changing the rattan armor that day, so I went out of the city with King Yu to look for it." But we searched for a long time but couldn't find the legendary rattan armor, and after leaving the city, we noticed that someone had fallen on us. By all indications, this tail should be the Yi people, and if they were to do something to us, we would have little chance of winning, so Yu Wang and I, in order not to fall into the hands of the enemy, found a place where the night vines gathered, and loudly said that this was a vine armor, but there was a fatal flaw. ”
"I see!"
Everyone heard that it was a turn of the peak, but they didn't expect that at that time, Du Yunjin and Xiao Shaokang had already changed their strategies.
Halfway through the banquet, Xiao Feng's spirits were already low, he beckoned to Huang Yuan, signaling that he would get up and go back to the Longqian Hall to rest. As soon as he was about to get up, he was left behind by Concubine Qing, who was half coquettish and half forced, Xiao Chen watched from the sidelines, and when he saw Concubine Qing's actions, he knew that something must be about to happen. She remembered Xiao Yu's words before, and asked her to secretly help Concubine Qing at the palace banquet, and she also wanted to see what kind of big drama it was, so she followed Concubine Qing to dissuade Xiao Feng from staying.
Xiao Feng barely sat on the upper seat, while Xiao Chen and Concubine Qing had their own ghosts, silently paying attention to everyone in the hall.
Everyone in the hall gathered around Xiao Yuli, one around Xiao Shaokang's side, and the rest of the people talked to each other, and those generals all gathered around Du Yunjin and Xiao Yu's table. They talked and laughed, and they had already forgotten today's other protagonist Liang Naixin very completely.
"Your Highness." Invading the weakness and charm in the bones, Liang Naixin cautiously leaned to Xiao Yu's side, whispered in his ear and asked, "Brother Yu, what are you talking about?" ”
In fact, it's not that Du Yunjin deliberately isolated her, it's just that Du Yunjin is like a fish in water on the battlefield, Xiao Yu must accompany this group of generals in order to win over them, and Liang Naixin is left alone but he really doesn't understand.
She deliberately narrowed the distance between her and Xiao Yu, and although her voice was soft, it was enough for Du Yunjin to hear clearly. Du Yunjin's originally bright smile was like a frost-frozen, unbearable and drooping low at that moment.
"Ayu, I'll go change my clothes."
"Go ahead." Regarding Du Yunjin's hurried "escape", Xiao Yu didn't say anything, he didn't even expose her lies at the moment, but just asked Ruyu to take her out of Xuanyuan Palace.
At that time, Du Yunjin didn't realize that another catastrophe that was enough to change her entire life was waiting for her not far away.
