Chapter 12 Formal Confession
"Liuli, why don't you eat it, but it's not to your taste?" Above, Cui Shufei's "gentle" voice came.
Looking around, after Cui Shufei moved her chopsticks, everyone had already begun to eat. The big family pays attention to food without speaking, sleeping without speaking, with a huge hall, thirty or forty people, there is no loud noise, not even the sound of plates and bowls colliding, everyone's table posture is impeccable. However, in such a silent state, it can also express the meaning of the pleasure of the guests and hosts.
"There are so many delicious things that I really don't know which one to eat first." Liuli smiled "shyly", lowered his head, and first sandwiched a piece of red date rice cake with green silk roses.
The rice cakes were cut into diamond shapes about an inch in size, and the two sides were already browned, red and white, and sweet and fragrant. Although it is something that the people of the Great Zhao Kingdom eat on the first day of the new year, it is ordinary and auspicious, but it is only available in the palace if it is made so exquisitely.
She took the rice cake slices, dipped them in the icing, put them in her mouth and tasted them, and then scooped a small spoonful of porridge to eat. Cui Shufei looked at her calm and elegant posture and showed a satisfied smile. No one noticed the smugness that flashed in her eyes, the triumph of the treacherous plan.
A meal of breakfast passed smoothly. After the meal, Liuli thought that Concubine Cui Shu wanted to leave her alone, and thought of an excuse to refuse or pull Princess Xiao Ya, but she didn't think that this kind of thing had happened at all. Cui Shufei treated everyone equally, and each noble girl tasted a New Year's red envelope, and then sent everyone away.
She entered the palace smoothly and came out smoothly.
"My ninth brother begged me in vain, nothing happened at all." Xiao Ya looked like she was taking advantage of it, and then winked at Liuli.
"Don't worry, I'll deliver a message to my brother." Liuli immediately understood, endured the unhappiness in her heart and said, "Whether it succeeds or not, I will write to the princess and ask Jiurou to bring it to you." Luckily? β
"Mm-hmm, I just like a cheerful person like you." Xiao Ya patted Liuli's shoulder, smiled and waved, "Then I'll see you first." He turned around and walked away, in a very dashing manner.
Liuli had mixed tastes in her heart, and she came out with the Wen sisters absentmindedly, and saw Xiao Zhen standing by the carriage of the prince's mansion.
His Royal Highness the King of Jin greeted him personally, and this kind of lace news made the ladies and ladies who were out of the palace browse the scenery here. Xiao Jiu gave his face like this, and Liuli was not slack, so he stepped forward quickly. Wei Shi saluted and said, "Why is His Royal Highness King Jin waiting here?" β
Xiao Zhen smiled and lowered his voice, "If they can't hear it, let's call me Jiulang." Then, the topic changed, "Did my mother embarrass you?" β
Speaking of this, Ruri still has a strange feeling in her heart, as if you are ready to fight back. But the enemy's charge sounded, but there was no attack at all, but people were not in decline. At the same time, there is also a feeling of unsteadiness. Because I don't know where or when the next meeting will be.
"Nope." Liuli shook her head, thinking of the wonderful princess, she pursed her lips and smiled, "Besides, didn't Jiulang find someone to help me?" Her Royal Highness the princess is quite responsible. β
If you say that the posture of the glass is only seven or eight points. But when she laughed, her countenance was outstanding. Because she was born bright, a sincere smile can add beauty to her. Pity. She doesn't usually smile much. At this time, her smiling face reflected the bright sun in the morning, which made Xiao Zhen lose his mind for a moment.
"It's good if it goes well." After a few moments, he came back to his senses, turned around and opened the carriage door, "Get in the car, it's weird outside." Tomorrow I will go to the Ning'an Hou Mansion to pay New Year's greetings, but unfortunately I can't stay for a long time. In the first few days of the new year, I had a lot of chores, and I really couldn't spare time. I'll find time after the fifth day of the new year, and I'll officially invite you in the next post. You haven't been to the Jin Palace, have you? Just take a look. β
Is this the rhythm of the future housewife's visit to her new home? Liuli thought about it, and suddenly felt very resistant in her heart. After the New Year, even if she is seventeen years old, it means that there is still more than a year before she marries into the Jin Palace. In the past, she didn't think it was anything, after all, she made all this by herself, and it was so logical. But now, I am full of reluctance and reluctance, and I always feel that when I enter that door, I will be trapped in it forever, and I will never see anyone again.
It's just that she couldn't refuse on the spot, and she couldn't say happy words, so she had to smile and nod.
Xiao Zhen thought she was shy, so she didn't continue the topic. After personally helping Liuli to get into the car, he dodged again and asked the Wen sisters to get into the car. Just now Liuli and Xiao Zhen were talking, and the two sisters hid not far away without disturbing their fiancΓ©s.
In the car, Wen Yiyun said sourly, "What's the matter, you have to talk at the palace gate?" Hurt us to stand aside, cold to death. β
"His Royal Highness the King of Jin said that he will come tomorrow to pay New Year's greetings to his father-in-law." The glass is faint. For Wen Yiyun's straw bale, she knows the owner of her stomach by looking at her face, and she doesn't bother to pay attention to it. After all, it's just a girl with low self-esteem, too insecure, so she always attacks her.
"His Royal Highness King Jin has a heart." Wen Zhiyun took over the conversation, lest her sister talk nonsense again. Of course, she was also very happy in her heart. You must know that Tokyo has a large number of imperial relatives, even if it has experienced bloody storms when fighting for the throne today, the royal family has survived the fruits, and the seniority is not low. There are also the in-laws of the royal family, the powerful and powerful, and the princes' own foreign families, all of whom need to be courteous. Even if you don't need to go to the New Year in person, you have to sit at home and wait for others to come and worship. And although their father, Ning Anhou, was favored and held real power, he was still quite far from the super-grade nobles. Therefore, it can only be said that it is an extraordinary honor for His Royal Highness the Prince to visit him on the second day of the new year.
This shows that His Royal Highness the King of Jin really attaches great importance to the glaze, and the Wen family's market will also rise. She is going to get married this year, and if her mother's power is stronger, her waist will be harder, how can she not be happy? is Yiyun, a straw bag, who will only be jealous, but will not take the opportunity to plan for himself and find the best result for himself.
Nothing to say all the way.
After arriving at the Ning'an Hou Mansion, the three of them parted ways and went back to their respective courtyards. Wen Ning had a social outfit, and there were no other elders in the family who needed to ask An to reply, plus they got up before dawn, and they stayed up until this time they were tired, so they didn't have much politeness.
However, before Liuli arrived at Mo Yuxuan, he saw Shui Shiqiao standing in front of the gate pacing back and forth, looking very upset. And when she appeared, he seemed to feel it, and immediately looked up.
Liuli's full beard and tail were in front of Shui Shi Qiao, which made him breathe a sigh of relief. Ruri entered the palace alone, and it was impossible to say that she was not worried. For the sake of her safety, he absolutely dared to resist the decree, but he couldn't resist her will. So since she left. He wandered around here like a trapped beast, and his heart was not at peace. Until, now!
"Ruri, are you back?" He smiled brightly and brightly, his bronzed skin lined with white teeth, shining in the sun.
"That's redundant." Ruri snorted, "I'm not coming back, can you see me?" He also came with a pair of white-eyed flying knives, and then bypassed Shui Shi Qiao and went directly into the yard.
In fact, Liuli saw Shui Shi Qiao. I was also very happy. People say that if you don't see each other for a day, it's like every other autumn. Since realizing his own intentions, such a short separation has also seemed to be longing for a long time because of the unknown danger. However, when she thought of Princess Xiao Ya's words, she couldn't help but feel awkward. I had no choice but to spread the fire on an innocent person. Hmph, who let him attract bees and butterflies without him?
And Liuli's attitude made Shui Shi Qiao a little inexplicable. But tell him that it would be good for Liuli to come back safely. Besides, he knows Ruri too well, the more she is like this. The more it proves that there are no major incidents in the palace. So, he didn't mind her little temper at all, and Lehehe followed behind and entered the courtyard. and follow up the house again.
Lime had no choice but to push him out, "Miss wants to change the clothes at home." Please help the master to avoid it. β
Only then did Shui Shi Qiao realize that he had overstepped his courtesy, and withdrew with a smile, sitting on the red lacquered railing in the corridor and waiting patiently. After a while, I saw Qingdai send tea in and out, and waved his hand to him, and then knocked on the door and entered the house.
At this time, Ruri had calmed down a little. Listening to Shui Shi Qiao ask about the things in the palace, he said 1510. Shui Shi Qiao was not at ease, and repeatedly asked and scrutinized the details, but in the end, he couldn't guess Cui Shufei's intentions.
"Does she want to play with the grass and scare the snake? Let you know the difficulties and retreat? Or is there an emergency, and you can't do it? It's not like it. Shui Shi Qiao muttered, and after a moment of silence, he suddenly reached out and grabbed Liuli's wrist as if he remembered something.
His hands are either holding a knife or steering all the year round, and his palms are covered with calluses. And Liuli has not been back from the outside for a long time, the skin is slightly cool, and it is very sensitive to stimulation. At this time, he couldn't help but tremble when he was touched like this, and instinctively wanted to get rid of it.
"Don't move." Shuishi Qiao was very serious, but it turned out to be the pulse of Liuli.
In the darkest, most chaotic and hardest years of the Cao Gang, he often had to fight for his life, so he learned some medical skills with a famous traveling doctor, in case he was chased by the enemy, he had to rely on himself if he was injured or sick. I didn't expect him to be very talented, and he really learned a little skill. Although he is not a famous doctor and is not very good at treating diseases, he is very good at dealing with external injuries and judging poisoning and internal injuries.
"There were so many people at the time, even if it was a chronic poison, she wouldn't have done it." Liuli immediately understood what Shui Shi Qiao meant, so she said, "I'm more inclined to it, because someone is stirring up the situation, she suddenly changed her mind." β
"I'm not at ease." Shui Shi Qiao frowned, "I always feel that woman is ruthless and will not let go of the opportunity so easily." "However, there is really nothing wrong with the pulse.
Liuli thought the same way, but she really couldn't find a flaw, so she had to wait a little longer and see the situation. And Shui Shi Qiao was too focused, and he didn't let go when he spoke, so he gently held Liuli's wrist in his hand and rubbed it a few times. By the time he realized it, Ruri's face was flushed.
"Someone asked me to bring you a message." Because of the unsuccessful struggle, Shui Shi Qiao refused to let go, and Liuli had to say with a straight face, "Princess Xiao Ya has taken a fancy to you and wants to get along with you." If so, I want to call you to be a colt. "After controlling it for a long time, the acidity is still there.
"I have someone I like." Shui Shi Qiao not only didn't let go, but also pulled Liuli closer, stared at her eyes, and said extremely seriously and firmly, "I really like her, I've liked her since she was six years old." I don't want anyone but her. β
