Chapter 321: Drunk
Seeing this, Li Chengxuan picked up the wine jug and added a cup for her: "I promise you that I will not ask about your marriage in the future, no matter who you want to marry, I only hope that you can be happy." ”
I hope you are happy, a hundred years of good together, and that person is full of children and grandchildren.
"Is this a blessing as an uncle?" Xiling Yue asked persistently.
Li Chengxuan's hand holding the pot shook and spilled two drops of wine. In just a moment, he regained his composure and filled himself, looked up and smiled: "No, it's as a friend." ”
This answer made Xilingyue breathe a sigh of relief, I don't know whether it was relieved or lost, whether it was expected or unexpected. All in all, he solved her confusion.
Another gust of night breeze flickered, and she put away her chaotic thoughts and asked the last question: "Can I still come to you in the future?" I want to ...... Find your case. ”
"I can't." Li Chengxuan offered a gentle knife, smiled and whispered, and his tone was resolute.
Xilingyue chose to respect him, so she had to nod silently and touch him with her glass.
With a "click", the two wine glasses clashed crisply, as if some memory had been ruthlessly cut off, both hasty and sad. From then on, they all had to work hard to adapt to the new relationship, and those who worked side by side and had a tacit understanding of the past finally drank their own sorrows with this glass of wine, and never mentioned it again.
This night, Xiling Yue was completely drunk.
"Lady? Wife? It's time to get up, the carriage of the eldest princess's mansion is about to arrive. A soft female voice rang in her ears.
Xilingyue only felt dizzy and hungover, and it was very difficult to open her eyes and look at the woman next to her.
"Are you...... Atsui? She asked, groggily, realizing that she was thirsty.
Atsui nodded, helped her sit up, and poured her another cup of hot tea for her to drink.
After drinking, Xilingyue finally sobered up, but her mind was still aching, and she couldn't help rubbing her forehead: "What's wrong with me?" ”
"You were drunk last night, and the prince." Atsui is at the end of the point.
"Drunk?" Xilingyue tried her best to think about it, as if she remembered something, as if she was drinking with Li Chengxuan last night, and she reconciled the wine. And then...... Then they talked so much, and she seemed to be drunk, and she cried, and confided a lot of crazy words, and cried in her arms and jugs, and refused to leave.
Xilingyue suddenly snorted, and pulled Acui to ask hurriedly: "I...... How did I get back last night? ”
Atsui was silent for a moment before laughing: "How else can I come back?" Naturally, it was the servant who helped you back. ”
Xiling Yue was greatly relieved when she heard this. In a trance, she thought that Li Chengxuan had brought her back! It looks like a vision. So she hurriedly swept away those nonsense thoughts, got up to wash, change clothes and makeup. Before breakfast was finished, the carriage from the Princess's Mansion had already arrived, and it was Guo Zhongting who came to pick her up in person.
Guo Zhongting heard that she was having breakfast in the dining hall, and he did not shy away from it, and hurriedly ran to look for her, and shouted loudly as soon as he entered the door: "Good sister, my own sister!" Have you packed up? ”
Xi Lingyue hurriedly wiped the scumbags from the corners of her mouth, got up and saluted him back: "Guo Jungong...... No, Brother Zhongting, good morning. ”
Guo Zhongting didn't seem to be able to adapt to her change, and touched his nose: "You used to always yell at me, why are you restrained now?" ”
Xilingyue can't say why. In the past, she treated Guo Zhongting as a friend, and in front of him, she did not choose her words or words, let alone greet him. But now that they have become brothers and sisters, they feel rusty.
Xilingyue silently found a reason for herself: "I used to be a small ordinary person, so I naturally did whatever I wanted. Now that she is your sister, everything she says and does is about the Guo family...... No, it's about the reputation of my father and mother, and I can't be casual anymore. ”
Guo Zhongting nodded again and again when he heard this: "Yes, Sister Yue'er is really sensible!" He chuckled under his breath, "However, when there are no outsiders, you can still order as you like." ”
His natural attitude also made Xiling Yue a little less restrained, so she pretended to return the salute gently: "Yes, obey my brother's orders." ”
Guo Zhongting laughed, looked left and right, and saw that only Ah Cui and Ah Dan were serving on the side, and couldn't help but wonder: "Huh? What about the prince and Brother Xiao? ”
Adan covered his sleeves and smiled back: "The county prince doesn't look at what time it is, the prince and Doctor Xiao have naturally eaten a long time ago, only our lady is lazy." ”
Guo Zhongting had heard that Li Chengxuan had allocated the twin sisters to Xiling Yue, so he instructed them: "Also, the hour is not early, you go and move your luggage, I will accompany Yue'er here." ”
"Yes, the servant obeys." Atsui and Adan spoke in unison.
Half an hour later, all the luggage was loaded into the carriage. Xilingyue, Li Chengxuan, Xiao Yi, Guo Zhongting, Ah Cui, and A Dan gathered in the hall of the outer courtyard of Fuwang Mansion.
Several people looked at him, except for Li Chengxuan, who was about to leave the house, and they all became sad about him. Li Chengxuan was calm, showing a somewhat graceful smile, and he couldn't see the decline of the past few days.
Everyone was waiting for him to say a few parting words, but he didn't expect that he would spare his words like gold, and only said: "I have said everything that should be said, don't let my imperial sister and brother-in-law wait in a hurry, let's go quickly." ”
"That's it?" Xiling Yue was very unexpected.
Li Chengxuan looked at her: "What, do you still want me, who is an uncle, to give you a generous gift?" ”
Xiling Yue pretended to have a cold face: "Who said last night that you would treat me as a friend in the future?" It's only been one night, and you've put up your uncle's score? ”
She thought that this sentence could attract a little laughter from everyone, but when the words fell, no one in the room laughed, Guo Zhongting's face was embarrassed, Xiao Yi was silent, Acui and Adan looked at Li Chengxuan with red eyes, and called in unison: "Lord Wang......"
Only Li Chengxuan's smile did not change, but he smiled so politely and restrainedly: "Okay, we are in Chang'an, and we can see you every New Year's festival in the future, and you don't have to cry and mourn." ”
Having said that, everyone knew in their hearts that Li Chengxuan had made up his mind to close the door. In the future, even if they meet him at the family banquet, everyone will have to abide by the etiquette of the clan, Xilingyue and Guo Zhongting must worship the juniors, not to mention Atsui and Adan.
The atmosphere was extremely sad for a while, Xiling Yue was very disappointed, and was about to say another word, but saw that Steward Fang hurriedly ran in at this time, and reported to a few people: "The prince, the county prince, the eldest princess's mansion has come to urge, saying that the holy decree to canonize the Xiling lady is already on the way." ”
These words abruptly interrupted the farewell of several people, Xi Lingyue, Guo Zhongting, Xiao Yi and others had to leave quickly, and some sad words were swallowed back, and the hall was in a hurry for a while.
Li Chengxuan finally smiled and said: "Since it is my own family, I won't send it, and there is no reason for elders to send younger generations in this world, so let's go." ”
As soon as this remark came out, no one could say anything more, and there was no time to say more. Xi Lingyue walked out of the hall surrounded by a group of people, bypassed the Zhaobi, and stepped out of the threshold of King Fu's Mansion. She couldn't help but look back, the vermilion lacquer gate, the unicorn door knocker, and the gold lacquer plaque...... Everything that was fleeting and familiar would be far away from her.
