Chapter 18 Xie Min is also fragrant
The Lanting Gathering was set on April 30, which was the day when the children of the housekeepers were released from school, and the scene was even more lively.
Xie Ying dressed up, and while the servant woman who was combing her hair didn't realize it, she still tied the gilded dagger that day to her arm with a rope, and she couldn't see it at all with her big sleeves.
Seeing that the servant woman was about to come in, Hongying continued to dust off her clothes, and then leaned closer and asked in a low voice, "Why did the lady bring a dagger today?" ”
Xie Ying looked at herself in the mirror and said with a smile: "I want to take it." ”
As she spoke, she raised her hand again, and the golden light of the dagger flashed in the bronze mirror, "The lady of the Northwest Hou Mansion should not leave her weapon." ”
"Second lady."
The servant's voice frightened her and she immediately lowered her hand, "What's the matter?" Before he came back to his senses, his voice was still a little shaky.
Hongying gritted her teeth and smiled, Xie Ying immediately glared at her, Hongying couldn't bear it anymore, and retreated to Hongye's side, "Lady, she ......" Hongying laughed silently before she finished speaking.
It's just that as soon as the servant woman stepped into the house, she could only continue to hold her strength.
"Outside the second gate, the carriage is ready."
Xie Ying nodded and stepped out of the Huanhua Hall briskly, the light of late spring became more and more brilliant, shining her heart warm, and the worries of the previous days had already disappeared.
Before the second gate, he saw Xie Min, "Brother! ”
She let out a loud voice and immediately rushed forward happily. Seeing Xie Min's eyes glancing to the side, Xie Ying immediately stopped.
As she expected, the Zhou family was also outside the second gate.
Seeing Xie Ying cautiously poke her head out, Zhou could only stare at her with disgust, her eyes full of pampering, "Why are the cats in the cage finally going to be released." ”
Xie Min hid his face and smiled, "Mother is relieved, I will take care of Ying'er." ”
Zhou glanced at Xie Min, but did not nod in a hurry, but beckoned to Xie Ying.
She stepped forward obediently, but Zhou pulled her aside, "Ying'er, you have to take care of your brother when you go to the poetry club today." ”
Xie Ying frowned lightly and looked at Zhou curiously: "Brother is so steady, shouldn't he look at me?" ”
"Min'er is steady, you only take my words to heart." Zhou's words were serious, "By the way, talk to the Song family lady." ”
Xie Ying only thought that her mother said that her brother didn't understand this matter, and hurriedly asked: "That Song family!" ”
Zhou clapped her hand helplessly, "The Song lady last time was the eldest daughter of Song Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites. Before Zhou finished speaking, Xie Min moved, so he had to urge them, "You just remember my words." ”
"Let's go!"
Xie Ying sat in the carriage and thought about Zhou's words repeatedly, "Ying'er get off!" ”
When she came back to her senses, she found that she had arrived at the Qujiang Pond, Hongye opened the carriage door, Xie Ying went out in a daze, and when she looked up, she saw King Chen's walking towards them.
"Dr. Xie, county gentleman." King Chen raised his hand.
Xie Ying saw King Chen's smile, and unconsciously laughed, and jumped out of the carriage again, Xie Min hurriedly played a round for her: "Sister has always been like this, King Chen doesn't have to be surprised." ”
"It's very pretty." After King Chen bowed his head, he praised Xie Ying.
Xie Min was stunned, so he had to take a step forward, "Five kings, I'm taking my sister to take the first step." ”
Before Xie Ying came back to her senses, she was pulled forward by Xie Min, and it was too late to give another blessing, so she had to raise her hand and wave at him.
After stumbling for a moment, Xie Min immediately supported her, and sighed: "Your first friend when I returned to Beijing this time, I didn't expect it to be King Chen." ”
Xie Ying looked at him frowning slightly, and decided to choke him once, "I'll have another friend soon." ”
"Huh?" There was more curiosity in Xie Min's eyes.
"The Song lady of the Song Shangshu family of the Ministry of Rites!" As she spoke, Xie Ying stuck out her tongue, but she didn't expect Xie Min to have red ears.
"Brother, what's wrong?" Xie Ying was playful, getting closer and closer.
Suddenly, I heard a girl's sigh not far away, "Dr. Xie is really the first person in Chang'an!" ”
"I don't know what poems Dr. Xie wrote today!"
"Which song of the last year's Qujiang banquet I still can't forget!"
Xie Ying raised her eyebrows slightly, and suddenly laughed. Xie Min pretended to be calm and asked, "What are you laughing at?" ”
"I kind of know why A-Niang asked me to take care of you!" Xie Ying sighed, and suddenly looked at her brother's slightly stunned appearance, and stopped talking.
"Alright, the women's seat is over there, let's go!" Xie Min said in a deep voice and left first.
Looking at the back of my brother who has gone away, it is really wind under his feet.
After smiling and sighing, Xie Ying settled down and walked to the female seat on the left, and several little ladies looked at her and were silent again, knowing that Xie Ying walked by and began to chatter non-stop.
"What's going on?" Xie Ying turned his head and asked about the red leaves and red tassels that followed behind him.
"Who are you, how could you not know?" Behind her was a cold lady talking, and Xie Ying slowly looked back.
The little lady in front of her was wearing a camellia-colored dress, and her temperament was as cold as a camellia reel.
Xie Ying listened to the voice of Xie Min on the side of Qujiang Pond and then chuckled: "Northwest Hou Mansion Xie Ying." ”
A hint of surprise flashed in the little lady's eyes, and she hurriedly looked at her, and then urged her eyes: "It turned out to be Dr. Xie's younger sister." ”
"Chen Yuming, the Duke of the Kingdom."
The Chen family, Xie Ying also looked at her, then she was the one who did the east this time, and then she could be polite, "Mrs. Chen." ”
Chen Yuming's eyes were bright, and she was still a little excited when she looked at Xie Ying, she didn't understand why she was like this.
Before Xie Ying could figure it out, the lady of the Chen family explained to her with a light smile what the situation was in Lanting.
Since Xie Min appeared in the Lanting Collection at the age of fifteen, he has a beautiful appearance, and then he is brilliant, and his rhetoric can be gorgeous but not stiff, or the simple words and sentences make people feel like a spring breeze, and he is naturally a talented person in the heart of the little lady in Chang'an City.
In the eyes of the Yu people, Xie Min's first imperial examination is rare.
"It's an exaggeration by everyone," Xie Ying lowered herself, not wanting to pull her on her because of her brother's demeanor.
I didn't want Chen Yuming to shake my head and said to her seriously: "Dr. Xie's words can be described as smooth. ”
What the lady of the Chen family said was Xie Min's discourse on the list of the middle of the year - "What is a teacher", so His Majesty appointed him as the son of the country and the doctor of the country, that is, the prisoners are also older than him, which shows that Xie Min is very knowledgeable. 、
"Not only do we and other boudoir ladies, but even scholars from all states also deeply feel that the text is copied from each other, and there are many who can afford to be shaped, and few who can afford to be gods."
Chen Yuming praised in his words, and the admiration in his eyes gradually appeared.
Xie Ying sighed in her heart, a jade-like character like her brother is the most sought after in those books. How many women are devoted to this, and the lady in front of her must be no exception.
Even if you hide and suppress your feelings, you will still be noticed inadvertently......
