Chapter 259: Smile
Yun Yichen and Kong Xuzhe rode away one after the other, leaving a stomach full of questions, and Xiao Jingkang, who was full of confusion, stood next to the carriage for a long time and couldn't recover.
"Uncle, let's go! Delicious and fun, you are waiting for me, the second lady of the Xiao family will be here soon! Xiao Yuan waited for a long time and didn't see the carriage start, so he anxiously lifted the curtain and asked.
"Ugh! Okay, let's go. Xiao Jingkang replied absentmindedly, Kong Xuzhe didn't mention that he hadn't noticed that his niece had actually grown into a big girl. The niece is now similar to her daughter in terms of body shape and appearance, and she can't see that she is younger than her sister at all.
Where to go next is completely up to Xiao Yuan, Yixiangyuan, Wanfu Building, and the teahouse were not until someone came to look for them at home, Xiao Jingkang realized that he had been shopping outside with his two children for most of the day, and it was time to go home.
The scorching afternoon sun bakes the earth, and through the light and shadow, you can see the rising heat. Pedestrians are rarely seen on the streets anymore. Only Xiao Yuan was holding a nut in his arms, sitting in the car and looking east and west. Xiao Yao snuggled in the carriage and was already drowsy, if this time period was at home, it was the time to take a nap, and she could support herself until now before she was sleepy, Xiao Yao already admired herself.
After returning to Xiao's house, a pair of sleeping sisters in the dark were carried directly back to the distant building by the soft sedan chair. Xiao Jingkang was beaten by Tong Mingyu when he returned to Graceland, what should I do if the children are sunburned on a hot day? There is no such way as he spoils his daughter......
Tong Mingyu muttered to himself, Xiao Jingkang listened quietly for a while, and handed her a cup of tea when his wife was about to vent, saying that she must be thirsty for so long! Let her moisten her throat, and take a break to have something to say to her.
"Go down, all of you! There is no need to keep people under the corridor, just guard the courtyard gate. Xiao Jingkang rarely made such solemn arrangements, and Tong Mingyu sent people out according to her husband's words.
"When I went to pick up the two children today, I saw King Jing and King Minjun." After the subordinates left, Xiao Jingkang began to tell his wife about what happened during the day today.
"Which Minjun King?" Tong Mingyu didn't react for a while.
"The youngest son of the King of Lingnan, I didn't pay attention to him before, but what he said today scared me a lot." Xiao Jingkang was even more afraid that his next words would scare his wife, so he slowed down his speech and spoke slowly......
"When did Ruyi meet that King Minjun?"
"I don't know about this, but the little prince surnamed Kong doesn't seem to be joking, and his meaningful words really confuse me, do you think the matter of King Jing's son will be true?" Xiao Jingkang didn't dare to tell these words to others, so he could only ask his wife for answers.
"I found that my daughter can always meet the son of King Jing's family when she goes out, once or twice is a coincidence, but every time it is like this, it can be ......" is a little unreasonable, Xiao Jingkang seems to be walking in the fog, and he can't find an exit for a while.
If Tong Mingyu was asked to choose one of Yun Yichen and the boy surnamed Liang as her son-in-law, she would vote for Yun Yichen, saying that she had taken a fancy to the power of King Jing's Mansion, or mocking her for clinging to the imperial family, who could bring a stable life to her daughter, Tong Mingyu would like whomever she liked.
That's all there is to it, and it's as simple as that.
The most important thing at the moment is that neither the Jingwang Mansion nor the Lingnan Wangfu have substantive expressions, how can Kong Xuzhe's words alone be convincing!
The couple discussed for a long time and finally decided that they had never heard these words, the children in the family were still young, if the two royal palaces were interested, they would definitely take action, and if the other party did not have that mind, they could find someone who was good to their daughter and niece. Tong Mingyu couldn't take the initiative to test the palace, and his father-in-law would never agree.
This matter can't be quiet, Xiao Jingkang has already thought about it when he is outside, and he won't tell his family for the time being, so as not to leak the news, just do what he should do according to the original plan, Kong Xuzhe's words are true or false, and it will come to light after a while.
"Father's place must be kept secret, not a word can be mentioned." Xiao Jingkang added very cautiously.
I'm not stupid, how can I mention it! Tong Mingyu nodded speechlessly, if what Kong Xuzhe said was true, if his father-in-law knew that the two girls were worried, it would be strange if he didn't jump like thunder!
The Xiao family was calm here, and Yun Yichen and his party stopped in a relatively secluded place after riding out of the downtown area. Kong Xuzhe didn't wait for Yun Yichen to confess first, he told all the conversations between himself and Xiao Jingkang.
"Did you mention me?" This is what Yun Yichen is most concerned about.
"Absolutely not, maybe Uncle Xiao guessed something before he looked at you, I really didn't say anything." I didn't say anything, just a little hint.
If the little girl's father guessed his thoughts, would he tell the old man? In the end, it's better to do it step by step! It's better to tell each other frankly like Kong Xuzhe! Why don't you also ask the concubine to find an opportunity to test the attitude of the head of the Xiao family?
"Don't dwell on such trivial things, I'll take you to see someone, this is the news that I have worked so hard to find out." Kong Xuzhe finished rendering the atmosphere and waited for Yun Yichen to ask, but the other party was simply the appearance that the soul outside the world had not yet returned.
Is this self-stimulating? It seems that he has hinted that Uncle Xiao's matter is right not to tell it, if this guy knows it, it will be strange if he doesn't mess himself up.
Kong Xuzhe's encounter with a few people today was really a pure accident, he was looking for Yun Yichen everywhere after hearing the news of Liang Zhixiao, and he wanted to invite a merit to ask for a reward, but now for the sake of this guy's poor bastard, he decided to be merciful and exempt him from the thank-you gift.
The person surnamed Liang is on duty at the palace gate today, and Kong Xuzhe really wants to see what kind of person the old marquis Xiao chooses is like, and what kind of person their family plans to marry the beauties with their hearts.
When the two of them arrived at the gate of the palace, it was the time for the changing of the guard, Kong Xuzhe found the guidance of the familiar guards, and soon saw the person who made him curious.
Liang Zhixiao standing in a group of guards does give people a feeling of standing out from the crowd, he is tall and burly, heroic, and can see that he is very popular, and he has a good relationship with the people next to him.
"The most eye-catching one in the crowd is the son-in-law chosen by the Xiao family for your little beauty, it looks good like this, but if you compare the two of them together, I still don't think he is worthy of your little beauty, what do you think?" Kong Xuzhe rubbed his chin and commented.
Yun Yichen sat upright and looked at Liang Zhixiao condescendingly, he also deserves to have a little girl? The Xiao family's vision is really not very good, he is a very outstanding guard, but standing with the little girl is clearly a young lady with an entourage, and it feels unsuitable if you imagine it a little.
The Xiao family only thought about not letting the child be wronged, but didn't they think that the little girl would not be wronged if she married such a person? After the other ladies got married, they were all young grandmothers, young ladies and even princesses and princesses, only she married the guards guarding the palace gate, so how could she be embarrassed!
Seeing Yun Yichen and Kong Xuzhe slowly approaching the palace gate, several guards hurriedly came over and bowed to greet each other, ready to lead the horses and open the palace gate for the two.
"Come and lead the horse for the king of this county." Kong Xuzhe pointed at Liang Zhixiao with a horsewhip and said, a little guard who is only worthy of leading horses for himself and Yun Yichen, actually thinks of the first beauty in Kyoto, and he will make him sober today.
Liang Zhixiao walked over with a smile on his face, his duty was to guard the palace gate and serve these nobles, so he was used to being called and drunk, he didn't think that Kong Xuzhe was deliberately targeting him, but it was Yun Yichen's chilling eyes that puzzled him, when did he offend this person?
"How did you do such an errand with such no eyes." Kong Xuzhe put on an arrogant and invincible appearance, and the nobles should be like this, that is, they have the right to be capricious.
"The lesson of King Minjun is that the little one must pay attention next time." Liang Zhixiao smiled cutely, but said neither humbly nor arrogantly, he didn't do anything wrong, there is no need to be too low, and the guards are also of high grade, but they are not subordinates of the Lingnan Palace.
"Alright." Yun Yichen saw Liang Zhixiao, and strengthened his determination to marry Xiao Yao back to the palace, and let him watch the little girl live a life of salute when she sees people every day, and live a life with a smiling face, even if she is not tortured to death, she will be suffocated to death.
Her little girl should live a life where everyone is vying to make friends, and the ladies of all families are rushing to tie the knot. I will also spoil her unconditionally like the old man, not letting her be wronged, and not letting her be sad.
"Did something happen?" Xiao Lang, who had been promoted to captain, saw a group of people gathered together and hurriedly walked over.
Yun Yichen nodded lightly at Xiao Lang, replied to the word "It's okay" and rode in the direction of King Jing's Mansion. Kong Xuzhe, who was left far behind, secretly scolded "bastard" and left, leaving a few confused guards You look at me, I look at you, I just didn't understand which one these two were singing.
When he returned to the palace and wanted to go to Jinhuayuan to sit, the most important thing was to remind his mother that she should go to Yuan's house for a walk, Yun Yichen was stopped by Qiu Ying, who was guarding Jinhuatang, and told him that the princess had not come back since she went to Yuan's house as a guest.
"When did my mother go to the Yuan family?" Yun Yichen almost jumped up with joy, or the concubine felt sorry for herself, so she didn't need to be reminded to help persuade the Yuan family, should she do something to express her gratitude, then go to the Yuan family to pick up the concubine in person.
"I'm going to pick up my mother." The corners of Yun Yichen's eyes and eyebrows were dyed with smiles, and no matter how happy he was in the past, he only smiled slightly. Today's smile is different from every time it has become flamboyant and intense, and the two rows of snow-white teeth are completely exposed, and Qiu Ying, who has seen him almost every day since Yun Yichen was born, swears that it is the first time he has seen Shizi smile so happily and so happily.
Yun Yichen walked out of the backyard with fluttering steps, with a bright smile on his face, the people in the palace still thought that they were hallucinating, the prince would actually smile at himself, it was too strange, was there any great joy in the palace? Otherwise, how could the prince have such an expression!
