Chapter 303: He's Coming
"Why are you talking so much today?" Xuanyuan Zichen's voice was flat, and the secret guard outside the door was silent for a while before he spoke again.
"The subordinates just can't bear to see the master so frustrated, although the princess is not in place now, but as long as the master looks carefully, there will always be a time to find it."
This secret guard has also followed Xuanyuan Zichen for many years, and he knows the situation most clearly, there are some things that others can't say, but he can say it.
"This king knows what you mean, but if you go today, you will see her and that Lu Gongzi again."
It's because she doesn't want to see Miss Shen and Lu Jia that Xuanyuan Zichen has been avoiding her for such a long time.
"But if the master doesn't go over today, Miss Shen will be bullied by others, and these noble ladies in the capital are the most good at watching people cook."
As soon as he said this, and then thought of what the dark guard said just now, Xuanyuan Zichen was very worried in his heart.
After sitting in silence for a while, Xuanyuan Zichen still decided to go over.
"Get ready, go to the Youwang Mansion."
"Yes, master."
Xuanyuan Zichen's decision, no one guessed. Because Xuanyuan Zichen rarely participates in the banquets prepared by the various mansions in the capital, even if the Youwang Mansion specially sent the post over this time, but Xuanyuan Zichen did not come, it is actually understandable.
It just so happened that a little maid came to the back garden to announce that the dinner party in front of me was about to begin, and invited the ladies and ladies to come over.
Song Yanran and Cao Jing looked at Shen Liuyue's suddenly nervous expression and comforted her: "Don't worry, after a while, I will let someone arrange a place, and we can sit together and take care of you."
"That's right, these positions seem to be fixed, but they can be adjusted in private, just say a word to people later, it's not a big deal."
Cao Jing opened her mouth rarely, and Shen Liuyue's heart finally let go.
"That's good, it's my first time here, and I'm not familiar with life, but I'm glad I met you."
The three of them talked and laughed and walked forward, and the county lord of Yan Yu not far away also noticed the three of them, but they just snorted coldly and didn't say anything.
This is about to start the dinner party, and there are people coming and going, and if there is really a dispute with them, it will be unpleasant for anyone to make a fuss.
Moreover, Song Yanran and Cao Jing, the two calf protectors, are very protective, and their family background is better than her, so they can't afford to provoke them.
Seeing that Lord Yan Yu stomped her feet in front of her and left, Shen Liuyue couldn't help but say, "Is she sick?"
"Don't worry, it's not a matter of a day or two that she's sick. We both got used to it, but she didn't dare to scream in front of us, so she didn't care. ”
After all, it's not her father, and it's boring to revolve around her all day long.
It's just that I think it's good, but it's different when I get to the front hall.
Lu Jia was told by his brother just now, and now is the time when he feels the deepest guilt for Shen Liuyue, as soon as he saw Shen Liuyue's figure, he hurriedly walked over, and he was already smiling before he could speak.
"Miss Shen, Lord Yanran, Miss Cao, the positions inside have been arranged, please go this way."
As Lu Jia walked forward, Song Yanran and Cao Jing's expressions were a little unpredictable.
This location does not seem to be the one they arranged at the beginning.
"Lord Yanran and Miss Cao helped Miss Shen in the backyard just now, and they are very grateful in their hearts. This is the guest who came today, there are really a lot of them, and the main seat can't be arranged, so I arranged this here. ”
This position is just behind the main seat, and it stands to reason that the people sitting here should also be heavyweights, although the identities of the two of them are indeed noble, but there are indeed a lot of people who come today, and it seems a little inappropriate to sit here.
"Although I know that Lu Gongzi is giving us face today, but there are so many people here, isn't it a bit ......?"
Song Yanran smiled gently, but her tone was a little refusal.
At this time, the prince came over and said after giving up his hand to the three of them.
"It doesn't matter, it's because of your existence today that nothing big happened or not, as it should be."
Seeing that Shen Liuyue was a little at a loss, the prince bowed slightly: "Miss Shen don't have to be afraid, you and your second brother are friends, and today my mother specially arranged for you to sit together, just with the company of Lord Yanran and Miss Cao, it will not seem estranged."
The three of them had no choice but to agree.
When the guests were almost there, they looked up and saw Lu Gongzi and Miss Shen together.
There were all kinds of speculations all at once, Shen Liuyue was nervous and didn't pay attention to the movements around her, but Song Yanran and Cao Jing did always pay attention.
Looking at Lu Jia, who had been pleasing Shen Liuyue next to him, the two glanced at each other, and all kinds of thoughts were silently communicating.
It's just that I'm afraid that today's scene will be seen by so many people, and I'm afraid that from tomorrow onwards, there will be rumors about Shen Liuyue and Lu Jia in the entire capital.
The thoughts of Youwangfu These two people understood at a glance, but they just set up a cover for Shen Liuyue to drill. Book 6 bar
It is clear that they have taken a fancy to the Regent Mansion behind Shen Liuyue, Song Yanran and Cao Jing originally had a general feeling about the Youwang Mansion, but now they are more and more annoying.
And it looks like Shen Liuyue hasn't understood yet, this is simply stupid.
In fact, how could Shen Liuyue not understand? It's just that now that she has sat down, how can such a big banquet be tossed because she is alone.
Looking at Lu Jia's obvious flattery for herself, Shen Liuyue's psychology was very worried.
"Master Lu, there are so many people here today, you can't stay here all the time, why don't you go and greet the guests first?"
Lu Jia looked up and motioned for Shen Liuyue to look over there: "It's okay, even if it's my birthday banquet today, but my brother and sister-in-law are there to greet the guests, and I don't need my help with these things."
"I see, it's really nice to have a brother." Shen Liuyue added a glass of water to herself, handed the teapot to Song Yanran next to her by the way, and then exchanged a tacit smile.
Then Song Yanran looked at Cao Jing next to her and said in a low voice: "Xiao Yueyue understands, but that Lu Jia doesn't seem to understand the looks."
Cao Jing poured water slowly, raised her eyes and glanced at it: "The wolf's ambition is obvious, he probably found out that Xiao Yueyue didn't feel that way for him, but he planned to directly use rumors to push him."
"What then? There are so many people in this Youwang Mansion today, if everyone sees it, even if it is nothing, it will have to be rumored to be married. ”
Song Yanran showed a smile to the lady opposite, and said to Cao Jing in a low voice.
Cao Jing put down the teacup and looked at Shen Liuyue's somewhat embarrassed smile, and her tone was calm.
"Don't worry, if it's really nothing by then, it's a big deal that we have been taking Xiao Yueyue with us, and there are mainly people who are still provocative like Yan Yu, you beat me and I'll be responsible for the sentry."
"It's okay, you are close to Xiao Yueyue, look at it, if Lu Jia moves his hands and feet, you will interrupt it directly."
As soon as Cao Jing spoke, Song Yanran stared at Lu Jia tightly, and Lu Jia couldn't ignore that look.
After the dinner began, many people came here to toast, and Shen Liuyue sat next to Lu Jia, laughing with a little pain in her face.
At this moment, a small servant hurried in and ran all the way to the main seat.
"The prince, the princess, the regent is here."
"Who are you talking about?" At this moment, the entire lord was stunned, and the king and princess were more like they were hit by a huge surprise.
They had been thinking about being able to get the regent to come to the palace, but when the regent actually came, they thought it was incredible.
"It's the regent, the prince just got off the carriage, and now he's leading people this way."
The crowd went out in a hurry, even Lu Jia was dragged over, and Shen Liuyue sat down, but her expression was confused, and her heart was even more chaotic.
"Xiao Yueyue, why did you say that the regent suddenly came today?"
Facing Song Yanran's doubts and Cao Jing's inquiry, Shen Liuyue shook her head with a dry smile: "I don't know, maybe the prince is in a good mood today, so I want to come over and have a look, after all, the prince may not have participated in the banquet for a long time."
"What you said is very likely to ......" just seeing Shen Liuyue's thoughts, Song Yanran didn't say anything else, just looked at Shen Liuyue's face, and didn't speak again.
After a while, there was a sound of messy footsteps outside the door, and everyone looked up.
The one who took the lead was the regent who was dressed in black and seemed to be wrapped in coldness, his momentum was too domineering, and it was easy for people to ignore his appearance, but if you look closely, the regent's face is also rare.
This is because of the power of the regent, but it makes everyone ignore the people around him, and as for the ghost king, the sense of existence is even lower and terrifying.
This is naturally sitting in the main seat, but when passing by Shen Liuyue's side, Xuanyuan Zichen's footsteps paused slightly, but there are too many people around, even if you want to ask a few words, you can't be here.
Yu Guang glanced at Shen Liuyue, who was at a loss, and Xuanyuan Zichen followed the invitation of the Youwang and walked over.
Naturally, someone on the main seat retreated, and Xuanyuan Zichen did not feel guilty at all, his face was cold, and he accepted the favor of others.
When everyone sat down, Shen Liuyue quietly glanced up, among a group of people in brocade clothes, Xuanyuan Zichen's existence was the most dazzling.
After a casual look, Shen Liuyue found that many women were a little flustered because of Xuanyuan Zichen's arrival.
Even the county lord Yan Yu, who was very arrogant just now, blushed at this time.
The skirts under her hands were all wrinkled by Shen Liuyue's grip, and her heart was the same as this skirt, without any stretch.
"Why don't you go over and meet the regent?" Lu Jia's kind suggestion made Shen Liuyue feel very uncomfortable, and she suddenly found that this casual and free son seemed to be impregnated by this worldly utilitarianism, and the ugliness made her a little afraid to look at it directly.
didn't understand Shen Liuyue's words, so Song Yanran next to her said.
"It doesn't have to be like this, Miss Shen is now a guest of the Regent's Mansion, it is naturally common to meet, and there is no need to go over to meet in this court, although Lu Gongzi's meaning is good, but now it is not suitable."
Lu Jia was a little sneering, and seemed to realize his urgency just now: "What the county lord of Yanran said is that he is impatient."
