Chapter 55: Love
Chapter 55: Love
At the beginning of the day, the afterglow of the golden mangs completely dissipated, and the sky was no longer even blue, only the rich ink color remained, and even the human figures were only faintly visible.
Zhao Ying was absent-minded, kicked the hem of her skirt on her toes, and walked down the Jiying Hall step by step.
To the west, near the Taifu Palace, is the coolest place to go, along the way the night breeze, the tall banyan trees cover the overhead, and even the moonlight barely leaks out.
Hui Chun and Shu Xia saw that she was not in a good mood and didn't dare to get too close, but it could be seen that she was getting farther and farther, and she could still faintly hear the sound of human voices and silk bamboos.
No one could see where the people blocking the road came from, and the tall figure forcibly cut off Zhao Ying's way.
The two girls were startled, shouted and stepped forward quickly, and hurriedly protected Zhao Ying behind them.
Shen Mingren folded the fan in his hand, and knocked it on the palm of his left hand: "The palace is stuffy, I want to come out to relax, so coincidentally, I met His Highness." ”
Zhao Ying raised her hand to remove the girl who was blocking in front of her, and stared at Shen Mingren with a smile: "Didn't Shen Gongzi come out with me?" ”
The soft voice was quite inconsistent with the softness on her face, and the breeze hit the face, and it was a bitter pain.
Shen Mingren frowned: "Did I offend Your Highness?" I haven't seen His Highness in recent days, and after His Highness moved out of the palace, he never walked around the Shen Mansion, why did he see me today, and he avoided it like a flood of beasts? ”
Between him and Zhao Ying, the friendship is faint.
In fact, in terms of background, he was not inferior to Xue Xianting and Song Yunjia.
It's a pity that he has not been favored since he was a child, if it weren't for his own efforts, he would still be afraid that he would still be left in Bingzhou and no one cares.
What's more, his grandfather, the Hou family of Lingyang, has also gradually been defeated, and it will no longer be at the peak of the past, and there is just a shelf.
The years when this high-ranking eldest princess was messing around with the children of the family in Beijing was just when he was in the state and no one cared about him.
He missed the best time, and now if he wants to get close to Zhao Ying, he naturally has to put more thought into it than others.
Father and mother both said that the queen mother was willing to choose a horse for Zhao Ying, and liked him very much, originally he was full of ambition, thinking that whether it was Xue Xianting or Song Yunjia, if he really won the favor of the queen mother, I am afraid that the will to marry would have been made a long time ago, and it would not be his turn.
When it was his turn, it was really very satisfying.
But he never thought that he waited again and again, until Zhao Ying moved out of the palace, and when Xue Xianting moved to the northwest, he still couldn't be arranged to meet Zhao Ying in private.
At today's palace banquet, the Queen Mother specially sent a decree out of the palace and asked him to go to the banquet with his father.
But who knew that when she saw Zhao Ying at a glance in the Jiying Palace, her face suddenly changed at that time, and that look, like a knife carving, was imprinted on Shen Mingren's heart, painful and unforgettable.
Shen Mingren is used to being sought after by others on weekdays, and he is also a little arrogant, but he is just a little restrained in front of Zhao Ying.
Zhao Ying couldn't get used to his style, and the mockery overflowed more and more from the bottom of his eyes, and he didn't hide it at all.
The young and beautiful face was full of smiles, but this smile, combined with her deliberate mockery, the meaning could not be more obvious.
Shen Mingren's face couldn't hold back, and the handsome face of the young man in the night also darkened: "If the minister has done something wrong, Tang suddenly offended His Highness, Your Highness might as well speak up?" ”
"You didn't offend me in any way. Shen Gongzi is the first prince in the capital, and he has a graceful and moonlit rhyme, how can there be anything abrupt and offensive. ”
Zhao Ying clasped her hands in front of her chest, and as soon as his voice fell, she immediately picked him up and went back to him, but it was the most perfunctory attitude at all: "But I don't like you to be close to me, is there any problem?" ”
She looked up at him, paced half a step forward, and got closer: "I still remember that your father forced the imperial uncle to go to the northwest, so eager to please me, why, the glory of the Shen family in the past was not continued, and when I came to Shen Gongzi, I wanted to earn another glory?" ”
Vitriol, where is it like a princess!
Shen Mingren was extremely disdainful in his heart, and he was really spoiled!
But Zhao Ying's words hit the nail on the head, hitting the point that he was most reluctant to admit calmly.
He suppressed his anger, couldn't even squeeze out a laugh, gritted his teeth, and asked Zhao Ying word by word: "Your Highness is rushing at me?" Or at my father? Father invited His Royal Highness King Yan to go to the northwest is a court, is His Royal Highness annoyed our Shen family because of this? ”
"I'm the least of those who use clever words." Zhao Yingcai was too lazy to fight with him, not to mention that Shen Mingren was the best at digging holes between words, "I don't like you, I just don't like you, the Queen Mother likes it again, but it is me who wants to marry, I advise you to die as soon as possible, don't beat my idea." ”
"Doesn't the eldest sister feel rude when she talks like this?"
Zhao Ying's expression froze, and the corners of her eyes twitched twice.
A few days after she moved out of the palace, she didn't see Zhao Wan much when she returned to the palace, thinking that Zhao Wan was willing to learn to be obedient and knew how to avoid her.
I don't think so.
Zhao Wan's body is elegant and quiet today, with a moon-white top with a lotus-colored skirt, and even the hairpin ring jewelry has no gold and silver, mostly white jade or white clams, which is not as flamboyant as she usually does.
Zhao Ying knew that she was a good hand at pretending to be pitiful and delicate, but she wore red and green in the plain days, and she covered up the softness on her body.
Dressed like this tonight, and then lowered her eyebrows and came to the front of people, she was really a pretty beauty I had seen pity.
She turned sideways and glanced back at Shen Mingren out of the corner of her eye.
Most men are interested in seeing it, and a hypocrite like Shen Mingren can't say that he also eats Zhao Wan's set the most.
It's strange, then in the previous life, he simply married Zhao Wan, why bother to provoke her?
Zhao Ying gathered her mind and almost couldn't hear it twice: "You just said that I was rude?" ”
Zhao Wan stood still, and had already given a salute, with her, and with Shen Mingren.
Shen Mingren still returned the salute with a gentleman's style, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he actually explained for Zhao Ying: "It turned out that the minister came out to relax, and met the eldest princess by chance, and suddenly surprised His Royal Highness, and the second princess misunderstood." ”
Zhao Ying wanted to vomit when she heard this, so she simply rolled her eyes: "You didn't misunderstand, I was mocking him." But Zhao Wan, the last time I said that you don't remember to eat or not, you really proved to me that you really don't have a long memory-what rules did you learn from your grandmother these days when I moved out of the palace?
There is a difference between respect and inferiority, and the old and young are orderly.
I taught Shen Mingren to respect me, you pointed at me and said that I was rude, because you are young? ”
Zhao Wan's face turned blue and white for a while: "Sister Emperor, you ...... Why are you so forceful of words. ”
Her tears seemed to be ready-made, the tails of her eyes were red, and her appearance of wanting to cry was even more distressing: "I just listened to your words are too ruthless, Shen Gongzi was born in a family, and tonight it was the imperial grandmother who specially named him to enter the palace for a banquet, I really can't stand you humiliating him, so I can persuade you, how can you ...... How are you like that! ”
But she wanted to cry or not, her eyes were shining, and the mist couldn't cover the stars under her eyes.
With that kind of gaze, he loved it obsessively, for Shen Mingren.
