Volume 1 Affection is Shallow Chapter 13 The Impolite Son
"An Yiran? That's a good name! Presumably the girl was born in a family of literary talents, right? will take such an elegant name. Su Qianli's eyes flowed, her expression smiled, and she appreciated it from the bottom of her heart.
"My sister has won the prize! Ran'er's family is in Xizhou, which is just a middle-class merchant family, and it is not a talent, and when my father and mother chose this name for me, they did give me endless good expectations. An Yiran bowed slightly, and explained with some embarrassment.
"Xizhou is a gathering place for wealthy merchants in Nanyue, with prosperous trade and abundant products, it seems that the girl's family is either rich or expensive!" Su Qianli took a closer look at An Yiran, and found that there was a faint temperament of wealth and wealth in her pure appearance and speech and demeanor, and she quickly guessed that she was born in a wealthy family with no worries about food and clothing.
"It's okay! My father has been running business all the year round, and all the wealth in the family is earned by my father, but after all, the status of the business family is still not as good as the status of the official family in Beijing. An Yiran humbly humbled herself.
"In fact, as long as the family is safe and well-being, and the life is rich, everything else is outside the body." Qianli's eyes showed a faint sense of envy, and when she thought of her tragic life experience, she unconsciously became sad again.
However, she was worried that An Yiran was still present at this moment, so she quickly put away her melancholy worries, replaced her face with a gentle smile, and kindly instructed An Yiran: "You lie down and rest again, I'll go and give you a bowl of noodles, you haven't eaten this day and night, you should be hungry!" ”
"Well, thank you, Sister Ali!" An Yiran didn't say anything more, nodded and saw Qianli walk out of the room, and then sighed softly.
An Yiran is now worried about not knowing where to start to find her missing mother, the only clue she knows so far is the palace, but where is the palace? She didn't know, she really couldn't figure out how to enter the palace to find clues.
She turned her head to look out the window and fell into thought, confused for a while, and then suddenly had an idea.
Didn't Su Qianli just say that she was rescued by the Six Princes? Then she can repay the favor and ask for help from the legendary six princes.
The more An Yiran thought about it, the more excited she became, she immediately got out of bed, put on the hibiscus-colored silk shirt that Su Qianli had prepared for her, and after she was dressed neatly, she quickly ran out of the house.
As soon as she walked out of the door, she saw a beautiful little courtyard in front of her, and she blindly groped her way up the courtyard to the outer corridor to find the location of the dining room in the courtyard of the Beijing suburbs.
As she walked, she felt a little dizzy, it was not easy to find the correct direction of the dining room in this huge mansion for the first time!
Instinctively, she walked through an elegant pavilion and stepped down another corridor when she suddenly saw two tall and thin men walking in front of her, both with a sword on their backs, walking leisurely, chatting intently as she went.
An Yiran guessed that the two men in front of her should be the guards in the courtyard of the Beijing suburbs, thinking that they must know the whereabouts of the dining room, she instantly ignited hope in her heart, and boldly shouted at the two men in front of her who were getting farther and farther away.
When the two men heard this, they both turned their heads suspiciously, stopped where they were, and stared at the girl in the distance behind them with puzzled eyes.
An Yiran trotted closer to them, and just as she ran to a stop in front of them, she was surprised to find the familiar face of one of the men, she frowned, pointed at the man suspiciously, and said, "I seem to have seen you somewhere!" ”
At this time, her mind kept searching for memories, and for a moment, she suddenly recalled that the man in front of her was the man's attendant who was competing with her for the white jade porcelain bottle that day, and she was so angry that she didn't fight in an instant, her face showed contempt, and she said in a disdainful tone: "I remembered!" You are the son who competed with me in Xizhou Porcelain Jade Xuan for the white jade porcelain bottle that day! ”
"Don't get me wrong, girl! Chang Feng was also forced to compete with the girl for the white jade porcelain bottle because of the majesty of the master that day, Chang Feng didn't want to have a dispute with the girl, but the master's order was really not to be disobeyed! If there is any offense to the girl that day, please forgive me! Chang Feng looked embarrassed and humbly apologized.
"Okay! You still have a little conscience! It's not like the arrogant and rude Lin Shen, it's simply unmanly! An Yiran readily accepted Chang Feng's apology, and accused Chang Feng's master with dissatisfaction.
Lin Shen, who was standing on the side, heard the girl in front of him suddenly mention his name and scolded him, he frowned puzzled, and asked in confirmation: "Girl, what is the name of the person you just mentioned who has no manly manners?" ”
An Yiran turned her inquiring gaze to the man next to Chang Feng, took a closer look, and saw that he looked cold, and his tone of speech sounded gentle and modest, with an unapproachable sense of alienation.
"This person's name is Lin Shen! It's that impudent son Lin Shen! An Yiran replied in a tough tone, feeling indignant in her heart.
"This ......" Lin Shen was about to refute out loud, but just as Chang Feng had just reacted, he immediately hurriedly reached out to cover Lin Shen's mouth to prevent him from leaking his mouth, and then turned his head to An Yiran and sneered: "Don't care, girl!" Lin Shen is already that virtuous, Chang Feng is here to compensate the girl for Lin Shen, our grievances have been turned over since then, do you think it's okay? ”
Lin Shen's mouth was tightly covered by Chang Feng, he rolled his eyes a few times, and aimed a strange gaze at the mysterious face of Chang Feng beside him, his heart was full of infinite doubts, obviously unaware of Song Moyu's fraudulent use of his name and identity in Xizhou.
An Yiran looked at Chang Feng's behavior a little strangely, and she was very puzzled, but she didn't have the heart to pursue too much at the moment, and now she had more important things, she thought about it for a while, and replied with relief: "Okay!" For your sake, this girl doesn't care! But you have to tell me, where is the dining room in this courtyard going? ”
"Head southwest and you're there!" Chang Feng finally put his mind at ease, let go of the hand that was tightly covering Lin Shen's mouth, and pointed the way for An Yiran.
"Thank you!" An Yiran thanked him gratefully, ignored Chang Feng and Lin Shen, and went straight to the southwest.
Lin Shen stopped in place, looked at An Yiran's back, and then took advantage of the fact that the wind was not paying attention, stretched out his hand and hugged his neck with heavy force, and asked solemnly: "Recruit truthfully!" What's going on? Why did you go to Xizhou with Your Highness? The one who was scolded became me? ”
"Oops! It hurts, it hurts, you tap! Chang Feng was hugged by Lin Shen's gravity and his neck hurt, and he shouted loudly, helplessly telling the reason: "It's Your Highness!" Your Royal Highness, he didn't want to reveal his identity in Xizhou, so he used your identity when he went to visit the An family, and the girl just now was Cong Zhiying's daughter, the only daughter of the An family, and she had a dispute with His Royal Highness, so people remembered your name because of this. ”
When Lin Shen heard this, he let go of Chang Feng, then shook his head and laughed loudly.
Chang Feng saw Lin Shen's strange reaction, and asked with a puzzled face, "What are you laughing at?" ”
"You say, if Your Highness knew that this Miss An was scolding him like this behind his back, would he be so angry and ashamed?" Lin Shen recalled An Yiran's scolding just now, and was instantly very curious about Song Moyu's reaction after learning about it, and faintly worried about An Yiran.
"I don't know if I'm angry or not, I just know that Your Highness has met a difficult rival this time!" Chang Feng sighed helplessly, and couldn't bear to be with his master.
An Yiran followed the correct guidance of Chang Feng and finally arrived at the dining room smoothly.
As soon as she stepped into the dining room, she smelled the aroma of food and instantly felt hungry.
She seemed to have been hungry for a long time, and had not eaten since she had drowned in a coma yesterday, and the aroma of the food in the dining room had succeeded in arousing her taste buds.
Su Qianli was still busy cooking pasta, and didn't pay attention to An Yiran, who had already stepped into the dining room.
An Yiran walked lightly towards Su Qianli, looking at her busy back, and couldn't help but admire.
She felt that the sister in front of her was really virtuous, not only gentle and considerate, but also so diligent and capable, if anyone was lucky enough to marry her in the future, she must be a blessed person.
"Sister Ali, it's so fragrant!" An Yiran walked directly to Qianli's side, smelled the aroma of the food carefully, and praised it sincerely.
"Ran'er, why are you here? Don't lie down in the house much? Su Qianli realized that she had come by herself, smiled softly, and asked with concern.
"I've slept enough in the past two days, and I want to come and cook pasta with my sister and get started." An Yiran explained softly, feeling a little reluctant to go, and couldn't bear to watch Su Qianli busy for her.
"No, you go and sit outside first, this pasta will be cooked immediately, and I'll serve it to you later." Su Qianli declined.
"Okay then! Hard work sister! An Yiran saw that the noodles in the pot were almost cooked, and felt that she should not stay in the way, so she obediently walked out of the dining room.
Su Qianli quickly brought two bowls of noodles out of the dining room and sat on the stone platform with An Yiran to enjoy the delicious food.
An Yiran took a sip carefully, and felt that it was very delicious, and the more she ate, the more appetizing she felt.
Halfway through the noodle meal, she suddenly remembered what was going on, so she raised her head to meet Su Qianli's tender eyes, and asked cautiously: "Sister Ali, I want to ask when the sixth prince will come to the Beijing suburb courtyard?" ”
"His Royal Highness Sixth comes here occasionally, the time is uncertain, he is busy on weekdays, and he will only come to meet me in his spare time."
"Actually, don't hide it from my sister, I came to Beijing this time to find my mother whose whereabouts are unknown, she went to Beijing in a month and a half, and has not returned yet, and the clue I know so far is that she is very likely to go to the palace, so sister, do you know where the palace is?" An Yiran thought about it carefully, and still truthfully told herself the true purpose of coming to Beijing.
When Qianli heard this, she felt a little surprised, she knew the feeling of worrying about the safety of her relatives best, she thought for a while, and replied objectively: "Even if you know where the palace is located, you can't enter it!" In addition to the eunuch family and the royal family, ordinary people who want to enter the palace must be called to have the opportunity to enter the palace. ”
"So what should I do?" An Yiran has lived in Xizhou since she was a child, and she doesn't understand the rules of the palace, and then she realized that it was much more difficult to go to Beijing alone to find her mother than she imagined.
"Perhaps, you can ask Your Highness for help, Your Highness, as the prince of the Emperor, it is still easy to help you find someone in the palace." Su Qianli suddenly thought of a good idea, and only the Six Princes Gang could get An Yiran in this matter.
"Then how can I meet the Sixth Highness?" An Yiran's thoughts were the same as Su Qianli's, she had planned to be cheeky and ask for help from her life-saving benefactor, the Sixth Prince, but she knew that a person with such a noble status must not be something she could see if she wanted to, and all the puzzles in front of her seemed to be difficult.
