Chapter 57: Observing the Ceremony
The provocation and unkindness in Pei Zhang's words can be heard by anyone with ears.
He Qi raised his eyebrows and smiled the same: "Yes, what a coincidence!" ”
The general election of the royal guards is an annual event for the children of the nobles to show their faces and plan a bright future. Only those who must be at least 15 years old can register for the competition.
He Qi has passed his fifteenth birthday, Pei Zhang is sixteen, and he is eligible to sign up.
According to the practice of the competition in previous years, all the sons and daughters of the nobles who signed up for the general election had to fight one by one. In the end, they will be ranked according to the number of matches won, and only the top 10 will be taken.
In other words, if the two participate in the imperial guard election together, they will definitely go head-to-head.
He Qi and Pei Zhang glanced at each other, and a sneer flashed in their eyes.
The six princes watched the excitement with relish.
Although he is still young, he is far from the age of the first love. However, I have never eaten pork and have seen pigs run...... He Qi and Pei Zhang appeared outside Cheng Mansion at the same time today, and they were like natural enemies when they met.
I want to know, it must be related to Cousin Cheng.
"Since the third prince of He intends to participate in the royal guard competition, he should restrain his thoughts that he shouldn't have, and take advantage of this time to study and practice hard. lest you be embarrassed on the martial arts arena when you get it. Anyway, Cheng Jinrong was not on the side, and Pei Zhang didn't need to hide it anymore, and his words were full of sarcasm.
He Qi is well versed in the way of anger and death does not pay for life, and said with a leisurely smile: "Today is my life-saving benefactor's gift, how can I not come?" ”
Pei Zhang: "......"
This damn cheeky bastard!
Pei Zhang was furious, and his right hand landed on the hilt of the sword at his waist.
He Qi glanced at him coldly: "Pei Gongzi wants to make a move, I will accompany him at any time." However, today is a good day for Miss Cheng and Lu, and there are many guests who come to congratulate her. Isn't Pei Gongzi thinking about Miss Cheng's reputation? ”
There is truth to this.
The sixth prince didn't look at the excitement anymore, and pulled Pei Zhang's sleeve: "Cousin Pei, we have been out for so long, we should go back to the palace." ”
Pei Zhang took a deep breath and nodded.
Pei Zhang didn't want to look at the shameless He San at all.
However, He Qi was particularly polite today, and took the initiative to say goodbye: "His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince is in a hurry to return to the palace, and I also have important matters today, so it is inconvenient to send His Royal Highness." ”
What's the matter?
Rong Cousin's courtesy, what is the matter with you?
Pei Zhang's handsome face darkened again.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the sixth prince immediately pulled Pei Zhang into the carriage.
……
When the carriage walked away, He Qicai frowned slightly.
In his previous life, a shocking scandal broke out in the palace.
The real Pei Wanqing has passed away for many years, and Queen Pei in the Jiaofang Palace turned out to be Wanqing's sister Pei Wanru pretending. The Pei family committed the crime of bullying the monarch and was beheaded. No matter how depressed he is, he will not know about such a major event that shocked the government and the opposition.
But that's all he knows.
He didn't know the intricacies of the inside story.
Later, the sixth prince fell seriously ill and died young. There are many princes of the Heavenly Family, and it is nothing to lose a prince with an extremely disgraceful background. Hardly anyone talks about it.
At that time, he had arrived at the border pass, thousands of miles away from the capital. He was indifferent to what happened in the capital.
Now that I think about it, I really regret it!
At this time, Cheng Jinrong must not know that his own mother is still alive in the world, let alone that the six princes who came today are his own brothers......
"Childe," Su Mu's voice sounded in his ears: "The little one is going to hand over the name post." ”
He Qi came back to his senses and nodded slightly.
With his reckless notoriety, it is nothing to break into the process mansion at this time and go straight to the boudoir of the process Jinrong. In his previous life, when he was fifteen years old, he was a willful temper.
When he lived again, he learned what forbearance and restraint were.
Because, he has a girl who cares about him wholeheartedly.
……
Cheng Jinrong sat quietly with a smile on his lips.
Perhaps, her rebirth is like a butterfly flickering its wings, quietly affecting everyone around her.
In her previous life, her ceremony was held at Pei's house. In this life, she returned to Cheng's house, and Mrs. Weiguo came to watch the ceremony. The sixth prince, Yuanchen, unexpectedly appeared.
Mrs. Yong'an Hou sat on pins and needles, and she was calm.
Cheng Jinrong saw it in his eyes, sneered in his heart, and felt happy.
The ladies who watched the ceremony came one by one. Soon, there were many strange and friendly faces in her boudoir.
The auspicious time for the ceremony has finally arrived.
Zhao held Cheng Jinrong's hand and laughed in a low voice: "Jinrong, go to the inner hall with the eldest aunt!" ”
Cheng Jinrong hummed, stood up, and followed the eldest aunt out of the boudoir. On his side is his cousin Cheng Jinyi.
After Pei Ying knew that Cheng Jinyi was today's hairpin, she was very depressed.
The girl is a hairpin, which is a very showy thing. She originally thought that when Cheng Jinrong begged her to be a hairpin, she must take care of the shelf. never thought that Cheng Jinrong would invite Cheng Jinyi to be the hairpin......
It's really infuriating!
……
Cheng Jinrong didn't look back, and he could also detect Pei Ying's eyes full of resentment.
However, she didn't care at all.
Pei Zhang is innocent, and Pei Ying is just a spoiled girl, and there is no evil behavior. But it was only a matter of time before she and the Pei family tore their faces against each other.
Walking into the inner hall, Cheng Jinrong saw the black-clothed young man who came to watch the ceremony at a glance.
Today's He Qi, without the usual willful and reckless atmosphere, stood quietly in the corner. It seems to be independent, but it can't be ignored by anyone.
is noisy, but there seems to be a loneliness that no one understands.
Just like her.
Cheng Jinrong's heart moved quietly, and he glanced at He Qiyao from afar.
Then, she smiled.
He Qi's dark eyes instantly burst into an indescribable look. However, there was no change in his movements. Still standing in the distance, silently watching the ceremony.
"On the auspicious day of the month, the first Canadian dollar is served. Abandon your young ambitions, and become virtuous. Shou Kao Weiqi, Jieer Jingfu. ”
While chanting, Zhao added a chord to Cheng Jinrong.
Cheng Jinrong was dressed in a skirt and bowed down.
"Ji Yue Lingchen, Nashen Erfu. Respect for the majesty, the grace of the soot. Eyebrows live for 10,000 years, and will always be blessed by Hu. ”
For the second time, Cheng Jinrong changed into a curved deep coat.
"With the right of the year, with the order of the month, the salty gar is served. Brothers are there, in order to become a virtue. The astragalus is boundless, and it is celebrated by the sky. ”
For the third time, Cheng Jinrong changed into a wide-sleeved and flute dress.
The ceremony takes about an hour. The etiquette is cumbersome, and the spectators should not make loud noises.
He Qi had been standing there quietly, staring at Cheng Jinrong.
Cheng Jinghong, who had been paying attention to He Qi's movements, finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Today is my cousin's ceremony. The visitor is a guest, and he can't refuse to leave the door if it is inconvenient. Fortunately, Pei Zhang came and left quickly, and He Sangongzi entered the inner hall, and he didn't mess around, and stood in the corner to watch the ceremony very honestly.
He, the lobby brother, is really heartbroken.
