Chapter 120: Sit down at the feast
Princess Jing pondered deeply, the backer behind the county lord of Leyun is Concubine Yun, Concubine Yun They can't afford to provoke it now, fortunately, the county lord of Leyun fell off the horse and was seriously injured, and he had no time to take care of anything else, otherwise maybe the county lord of Leyun would have done something to his stupid sister a long time ago.
Thinking of this, Princess Jing felt a chill down her spine, and suddenly, she remembered that someone came, and she vaguely remembered that Chen Luomei, the daughter of Lord Chen's family, also liked Gu Ziyi.
If Chen Luomei also sent a maidservant to discuss the purchase and sale of the yard on that day, then maybe she would have an understanding of what happened that day.
Lord Chen is a person from King Jing's side, and King Jing's side concubine can ask the result without going around the bend with her, and when the time comes, who is telling the truth and who is telling a lie, she will naturally be able to tell the difference, if Xianchen deceived her, she will definitely not spare Xianchen.
Immediately, King Jing's side concubine looked around, her eyes searched for Chen Luomei's figure like a radar, and soon she found Chen Luomei's shadow in the crowd, so she turned around and left, walking very abruptly, without even saying a word to Xianchen and them.
Lord Lingxi and the Eighth Princess looked at each other, wondering what happened to Xianchen and King Jing, the side concubine? They all looked at Xian Chen, only to see Xian Chen smile indifferently at them, "It's okay, it's just a misunderstanding." ”
None of them saw the cunning evil aura in the depths of Xian Chen's eyes, blooming under her eyes like a black lotus.
This year's melon banquet is different from the past, with an extra layer of marriage and blind date, so today's melon banquet allows single men and women to sit in the same case with a marriage contract or two people who have no marriage contract but like each other.
The case of two people, a man and a woman sitting together, means that they are now a couple, and it is also a reminder to the prince and princess of Wurong that they should not choose among these pairs of lovers, and choose those single men and women.
The status of the eighth princess and the lord of Lingxi is noble, and their position is the first place under the emperor and queen, which is specially arranged for the emperor's relatives, distinguished guests and princesses.
Xianchen is the daughter of the minister and has not married the prince, so naturally she can't sit in the same seat with them, so Xianchen finds a marginal and hidden seat to sit alone.
A handsome man dressed in a white shirt, like a fairy, with a jade crown on his head, and so beautiful that he was hermaphroditic and confused, stepped on the remnant sun and stepped into the gate of the Taihe Hall with a streamer.
"The Fifth Highness is down, he is so handsome......"
"Really handsome......"
"Handsome is handsome, but he is too careful, I heard that there are countless concubines in his house, and I am afraid that they can all be lined up from this Taihe Hall to the palace gate, right?"
……
With the arrival of Gu Ziqi, the people who arrived early at the table also began to talk about him.
The whispers of those people did not reach Gu Ziqi's ears, he paused, his eyes shot out like radar, and swept every inch of the Taihe Palace.
After a while, his gaze finally focused, and fell on the corner of the edge of the Taihe Palace, under a large pillar, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and he walked towards the pillar with a slight smile.
And the eyes of the people went away with him.
Gu Ziqi walked up to Xian Chen, folded the fan, and said in a voice that he and Xian Chen could hear: "Third sister-in-law, but let me find it." ”
Xianchen raised his eyes to look at Gu Ziqi and asked, "Is there something wrong with me?" ”
"Third sister-in-law, the third brother said, he will come over after washing the incense, and you will sit in the same case tonight."
Belch......
Dust forehead black line.
How does that sound weird and unpleasant?
Xianchen likes Gu Ziyi, it's true; But if you want to marry Gu Ziyi and become Gu Ziqi's third sister-in-law, then Gu Ziyi has to be worthy of her lifelong entrustment.
She rolled her eyes and gave Gu Ziqi, "Don't scream, who is your third sister-in-law?" ”
Gu Ziqi was thick-skinned, completely ignoring the white eyes of Xian Chen, he smiled evilly, folded the fan, and put his mouth close to Xian Chen's ear and said, "Sooner or later." ”
In the eyes of everyone, the two of them looked like two little lovers arguing.
Xianchen finally chose a hidden corner to sit in, but because of Gu Ziqi's arrival, this place instantly became a hot spot where everyone's eyes met, and countless pairs of curious and gossipy eyes fell on their place.
"Look, look at His Royal Highness King Xi talking to that woman, that woman dares to roll her eyes at His Royal Highness King Xi, she is really bold......"
"That's Ran Xianchen, I heard that His Royal Highness King Xi was willing to dismiss all the concubines in the mansion for her, and sent someone to the Ran Mansion to protect her......"
"Tsk...... It's not easy for a country girl to have such means......"
"I heard that she died ugly when she came back from the countryside, and somehow she became beautiful, and she was fascinated by His Royal Highness King Xi......"
……
Everyone's discussion drifted into the ears of Xianchen deliberately and unintentionally.
Xianchen was helpless, lamenting that this remote and hidden excellent seat was a hundred choices.
Forget it, even if you want to avoid the limelight, if someone wants to deliberately find fault, no matter how hidden the position you are looking for, someone will dig it out, not to mention that you have become the focus now.
Sitting in the same case with Gu Ziyi is not necessarily a bad thing, at least you can avoid being regarded as the object of a blind date at tonight's blind date meeting.
Thinking of this, Xian Chen got up and asked, "Where is Gu Ziyi's case?" ”
"Come with me, third sister-in-law." Gu Ziqi opened the fan, and his smug expression was fully revealed, he seemed to be sure that Xianchen would not be mad at him at this time, and deliberately called her third sister-in-law again, and turned around to leave.
Xian Chen was helpless, and wanted to roll his eyes to Gu Ziqi again, but Gu Ziqi had already turned around, with the back of his head facing her, Xian Chen withdrew the spirit of his white eyes, and followed behind Gu Ziqi, facing everyone's gossip words and surprised eyes, she could only pretend that she didn't hear anything, didn't see anything.
Xian Chen followed behind Gu Ziqi, his thoughts deserted, just looking at Gu Ziqi's back, he was obviously a personable fairy, and he was born with an indecent soul, what kind of woman can give birth to such a contradictory individual?
Xian Chen's purpose in entering the palace today is to see what Concubine Yun looks like.
Because Gu Zichen was a little like Xianchen's master between his eyebrows, Xianchen became interested in Concubine Yun, and at this time, Xianchen also had a strong interest in Gu Ziqi's mother.
Xian Chen followed Gu Ziqi to the seats of the princes and princesses, Gu Ziqi found a case and greeted Xian Chen: "This is the seat area of the princes and princesses, you can't sit alone, you sit next to me first, and wait for the third brother to come to you in the past." ”
Xian Chen nodded in response, and sat down with Gu Ziqi in the same case.
This can surprise the Lingxi County Lord and the Eighth Princess, who were also sitting on the seat of the prince and princess, "Ziyao, pinch me and let me see if it's an illusion, is Xianchen really sitting in the same case as your fifth brother who is both attentive and unreliable?" ”
"Really, they're really sitting in the same case." The eighth princess nodded, responding to the county lord of Lingxi seriously, and at the same time pinched the shoulder of the county lord of Lingxi seriously.
"Oops......!" Lord Lingxi was in pain and couldn't help screaming.
When Xianchen heard the sound, he happened to meet the gaze of the Lingxi County Lord.
Lord Lingxi shook his hand awkwardly at Xian Chen, "Hey, Xian Chen! Xian Chen smiled casually, what were those people and the Lord of Lingxi thinking, Xian Chen knew in his heart that he was nothing more than surprised that he was walking with this unreliable His Royal Highness King Xi.
The eighth princess couldn't hide things in her heart, the case where she and the county lord of Lingxi sat down was still separated by several empty cases between the case where Xianchen and Gu Ziqi were sitting, she simply took the county lord of Lingxi to change the place where she sat and came to Xianchen, and asked seriously: "Xianchen, are you really with my fifth brother?" ”
"No, today's melon banquet is also a blind date banquet, I don't want to be taken away by others, just looking for shelter." Slim Dust lowered her voice, and only the people around her could hear what she said.
Naturally, Gu Ziqi also heard it, he was full of black lines, can this girl not speak so directly? Is it okay to give some face?
He had to get back the lost face, Gu Ziqi narcissistically stroked his hair, folded the fan, pointed at Xian Chen, and deliberately reversed right and wrong: "Shy, she is shy." ”
As soon as Gu Ziqi's voice fell, Xian Chen got up and moved his butt to an empty table next to them, and coincidentally, Gu Ziyi was also sitting beside him at this moment.
Gu Ziyi did not go back to the house to take a bath, but went to the dormitory where his mother once lived, which was fortunate to be preserved because of Gu Ziyi's great military exploits, he took a comfortable bath in the dormitory, and specially changed into a brocade robe smoked with rosin.
Gu Ziyi came to the Taihe Hall beautifully, when he came to the Taihe Palace, because everyone's eyes were still on Xianchen and Gu Ziqi, no one noticed when their god of war had entered the Taihe Palace, and he was still sitting next to Xianchen.
Seeing that the main lord was coming, Gu Ziqi's heart was a little lost, and before his loss could spread to the bottom of his eyes, he saw that the county lord of Lingxi was shocked as if he had seen a ghost, "His Royal Highness King Rui, why are you sitting here?" ”
"Shouldn't I be sitting here?" Gu Ziyi was born with a cold outline, not angry and arrogant, but his unbalanced words made the Lingxi County Lord feel a chill down his spine.
The county lord of Lingxi pursed her lips, secretly saying that the god of war is a god of evil, forget not to provoke him, she turned to look at Xian Chen, attached her mouth to Xian Chen's ear, and whispered: "Xian Chen, the seat next to the Third Highness can't sit casually, be careful and die." ”
"Is it that serious?" Xianchen frowned.
"I'll talk to you about the specific things in detail another day, in short, it has something to do with Lord Leyun, you better hurry back to the Fifth Highness to avoid some unnecessary trouble." Lord Lingxi said bitterly.
As soon as he heard that it was related to Lord Leyun, Xian Chen's brows furrowed even tighter.
Seeing that Xian Chen only frowned and didn't mean to move his buttocks, the county lord of Lingxi was even more anxious, and his eyebrows, eyes, and nose were wrinkled.
"Block, hurry up......" Lord Lingxi hurriedly pushed Xianchen to Gu Ziqi's side as if his eyebrows were on fire.
There are many girls who like Gu Ziyi, and when they no longer understand the relationship between Gu Ziyi and the Lord of Leyun, Xianchen didn't want to become the target of the public, so Xianchen took the opportunity to sit next to Gu Ziqi again.
Seeing that Xian Chen sat next to him again, Gu Ziqi was stunned, Gu Ziyi was also stunned, and after a while, Gu Ziyi came back to his senses, looked at Xian Chen and asked, "Why did you run over and sit?" ”
Everyone knows that today's melon banquet is also a blind date banquet, and there are only three highnesses among the unmarried princes of Ji Kingdom, and the three highnesses of the fifth and seventh highnesses have not officially married.
Although the five highnesses are not married, there are groups of concubines in the house, and the seven highnesses are in the Li country, and the people are not in the Taihe Palace, and only the three highnesses are alone in the entire hall, which is the best candidate for marriage.
Lord Lingxi thought that these three highnesses didn't want to be taken away by a foreign princess, so they didn't want Xianchen to leave, so they questioned Xianchen.
Anyway, sticking a knife in her friend's ribs, she is not afraid of offending Gu Ziyi, the county lord of Lingxi squeezed out a smile at Gu Ziyi, and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness King Rui, you have recruited a fierce peach blossom, you know this, right?" ”
