Chapter 192: Sworn Enemy
Around noon, on the crowded Xuanwumen Street, a two-story teahouse with an elegant appearance had no guests, and was watched by a group of guards early.
With the passage of time, there are constantly horse-drawn carriages or sedan chairs from all directions to gather here, wearing hats, or showing their true faces, young girls in gorgeous clothes get down from the sedan chair, or take the maids, or go upstairs by themselves.
After a while, there was a burst of laughter from the second floor. Although there are many passers-by on the street who see the excitement, they can see that the bamboo curtain hangs down on the second floor, and the guards in front of the building are around, and the atmosphere of wealth and nobility is clear. Therefore, when the last carriage arrived, and two girls with similar costumes but different temperaments got out of the carriage and went upstairs one after the other, it attracted little attention.
But when they went upstairs, the girls who had just been chattering suddenly fell silent. Zhu Ying, who was talking to someone, raised her eyebrows even more, and Huo Ran got up in annoyance and asked, "What are you doing here?" I didn't invite you again! ”
"If I don't come, God knows if you will sell your second sister?" Princess Yongping laughed, and Princess Deyang behind her hurriedly whispered: "Third sister, Yingying just kindly invited me to come out and relax......
"Now at this time, when you go out of the palace alone to relax, your father is willing, but if the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother know when they look back, you will inevitably say that even your mother and concubine will have to be blamed. I'll send you a piece over, and if you want to be scolded when you turn around, you can have one more person to share. As she spoke, Princess Yongping strode forward and sat directly opposite Zhu Ying.
As soon as she and Princess Deyang appeared, the girls from other families had already stood up to greet each other, but Zhu Ying was so angry that she sat down directly after Princess Yongping's sarcastic remarks. At this time, seeing that this annoying rival was actually sitting down with her own guest, she slapped the table angrily and said: "Okay, no matter whether you are honorable or humble today, she is an uninvited guest, you all sit down, what kind of salute!" ”
"Today are all guests invited by Yingying, only to say affection, regardless of dignity!" Princess Deyang was originally a shy person, and at this time she hurriedly played a round, "The third sister is also worried about me, so she sent me here, and the Chu Gong Guild will come to pick her up and go to Yuehua Tower in a while." ”
As soon as the three words of Yuehualou came out, everyone suddenly realized. It turned out that this princess's Yuehualou Wenhui was about to start again! The others naturally breathed a sigh of relief when they thought that Princess Yongping would leave in a while, but Zhu Ying raised her eyebrows and asked, "It seems that more than a month has passed since last time, right?" When did you become so inactive in the eight-strand literary conference? ”
Faced with this-for-tat question, Princess Yongping didn't even move her eyebrows: "The article naturally has to brew emotions and be carefully crafted, and besides, last time Xu Fengyang was sarcastically ridiculed by your Zhang Shou, and the Wenxuan family in the capital was in chaos for a while, and if he was invited to judge again, it would inevitably be out of standard, so I stopped for a month, that's all." ”
Zhu Ying, who originally wanted to be sneering, heard the words Zhang Shou of your family, and suddenly felt like drinking a glass of ice water in summer, and her whole body was comfortable, and she was too lazy to fight with Princess Yongping at the moment. And Liu Qing, who had already set a lifelong event on the side, immediately provoked a new topic, and with the help of Princess Deyang's hard work but a little clumsiness, the other girls naturally surrounded her.
Needless to say, neither of them can afford to provoke them, since this is the case, they can't afford to hide!
Seeing that the girls were smiling and chatting on the other side of the exchange of interesting things on weekdays, from cooking, rouge, female red to brothers and sisters at home, Princess Yongping, who was not used to this atmosphere, finally couldn't help but stand up and came to the window with a bamboo curtain, looked out, and asked without looking back: "You have been going to banquets for some reason these days, what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd?" ”
"What do you care about me?" Zhu Ying came behind Princess Yongping angrily, and said in an unkind tone, "I haven't asked you yet!" It couldn't have been that coincidental before, did you? ”
Even if Zhu Ying didn't say it explicitly, Princess Yongping still suddenly changed color. She quickly turned around and saw that Liu Qing and Princess Deyang were talking about something interesting, and a group of girls were laughing and leaning back and back, not caring about the two of them at all, so she glared at Zhu Ying in annoyance and said, "Do you have a brain, you dare to take out this kind of thing?" ”
"If you dare to do it, what am I afraid to say? You made your own decisions and almost killed people, do you know it! ”
Seeing Zhu Ying's aggressiveness, Princess Yongping naturally was-for-tat: "How did I know that you were so bold, if it weren't for the Lu family and the Liu family coming out to admit that they arranged to see each other, do you think you can get out?" Besides, if it weren't for Lu Sanfat's boldness, the second brother would lose his temper on the street at most, and then he would be broken by the eldest brother and scared away, and it wouldn't be so big at all! ”
"Yo, a big brother and two brothers, it's a nice name!"
The voices of the two people were unconsciously suppressed very low, and when you stared at me, it was a fierce light against a murderous aura, as if the next moment the dispute would turn into a scuffle. However, now is not the moment when they were still children, and after glaring at each other for a while, Princess Yongping first looked away angrily, but said stiffly: "I warn you, don't be too self-righteous! ”
"I don't need you to be verbose." Zhu Ying smiled and said nonchalantly, "I still know my catties, so as soon as Lu Sanpang came out, I hurried into the palace to tell the emperor." As for the current matter, I also greeted the emperor, and the emperor said that if it can really be done, it means that I have a good vision, let me do it! ”
Princess Yongping couldn't believe her ears. Father connived at Zhu Ying to be so nonsense! Even herself, the daughter of her father's mother, had to abide by a lot of messy red tape, why could Zhu Ying, the Duke of Zhao Guo, ignore all kinds of rules and be willful?
Seeing that Princess Yongping was full of anger, Zhu Ying sneered again: "I dare to tell the emperor about this, what about you?" ”
Princess Yongping was suddenly shocked and angry. Zhu Ying's matchmaking and matchmaking matter, my father heard about it, and naturally regarded it as a lively one, and it was over with a smile, how could I say my own little plan? Don't look at the father's favorite concubine, and he also loves her daughter the most, if he knew that she was calculating two brothers behind her back, she would definitely not be tolerant!
And Zhu Ying saw that Princess Yongping was dumbfounded, so she said triumphantly: "So, if you follow the idea I told you before, it's just a joke about your two brothers, it's a big deal that they will fight, and they will turn around and make trouble for a while, so angry that the queen is not a person on both sides, but you are fanning the flames so much now, once the queen mother or the emperor knows...... Hehe, you're embarrassed to say I'm self-righteous? ”
Princess Yongping couldn't help but grit her silver teeth, but she could only swallow her anger and say, "I didn't expect one of them to be so calculating, and the other to be so impulsive...... I just got the news out of my eldest brother......"
"Okay, I don't bother to talk about the past!" Zhu Ying interrupted Princess Yongping angrily, and then ordered the guest to be evicted, "Aren't you going to Yuehua Tower?" You go to be your talented and noble and talented girl, I am here to be my unreasonable and domineering lady, and our well water does not interfere with river water! As long as you don't count Ah Shou and my family, I don't care what you do! ”
Although she knew that Zhu Ying was hard-mouthed and soft-hearted, she had never complained to the queen mother and the emperor because of quarrels with herself or other discord, but at this time, Zhu Ying's words were so hard-hearted, Princess Yongping still couldn't help but be annoyed. But she knew that it was useless to admit that it had something to do with her even if she didn't admit it before, and the one who knew her best was indeed the rival in front of her.
At that moment, she turned around with a calm face, but just as she was about to leave, she suddenly heard Zhu Ying's surprised and happy voice behind her: "Ah Shou! ”
Princess Yongping was slightly stunned, turned her head to look, and saw that Zhu Ying had already opened a large crack in the bamboo curtain, and was leaning out and waving downstairs from the gap with a smile. Thinking that if she left at this time, she would probably collide with Zhang Shou head-on as soon as she went out, so she simply stopped her steps and simply turned around and came behind Zhu Ying.
Looking condescendingly, she saw Zhang Shou riding on a horse, looking up and greeting Zhu Ying with a smile. It was obviously a very simple dark gray shirt, but when he wore it, it set off his straight posture more and more, even if he raised his hand to cover his eyes because he wanted to block the hot midday sun, but the sincere smile still overflowed from the corners of his eyebrows and mouth.
"Yingying, so coincidental? Are you here to invite people? ”
Even if Princess Yongping has always felt that those who have passed five levels and killed six generals in the field are the pillars of the country, although Zhang Shou now seems to have repeatedly overproclaimed and his foundation is unstable, he may not be able to go far in the future, and he is even more sneering at those who say that Zhang Shou and Zhu Yinglang are talented and beautiful, but at this moment, seeing the two of them talking like no one else, she still feels that it is not a taste.
Even if she has never been a person who admires color more than talent, she has to admit that Zhang Shou has another talent that is different from others in addition to Pan An's appearance. is such a young genius with a ravine, but he is really like Zhu Ying, who likes embroidered pillows and a bag of grass like those frivolous teenagers who only love one skin.
Although she has never admired a man, there are many noble children who have taken great pains to treat her, and whether she is sincere or not, she still thinks she can see it. Zhu Ying was born to be held in the palm of her hand by her father, brother and elders, and the Empress Dowager in the palace, and now she can still meet such a wishful man...... Her luck was too good!
Although I don't know how envious and jealous Princess Yongping is behind her, even if she knows, Zhu Ying will say nonchalantly, I am just luckier than you, so what! At this moment, she smiled and leaned on the railing and said to Zhang Shou: "That's right, I asked a group of sisters to have a tea gathering here, and the Yangzhou refreshments here are famous!" Where are you from? ”
Zhang Shou saw the pair of watching eyes behind the gap in the bamboo curtain next to him at a glance, and said casually: "I just took Zhang Chen, Lu Sanlang, and your second brother and seven or eight of them to listen to the rain Xiaozhu, and finalized one thing." ”
