240. Drag your feet

Quan Rou and Lu Qiqi heard the news, and without delay, the two of them hurriedly came down from the upper floor.

While rushing to the backyard, Lu Qiqi also silently complained in Quan Rou's ear, "This is all incognito, why do you still ask us to go down to pick up the distinguished guests?" ”

The big shopkeeper only said to the girl who came to pass the word, asking them to go down to greet the distinguished guests. But I didn't say which one it was.

Lu Qiqi just said that.

Quan Rou glanced at the little girl who was leading the way in front of her, and made a silent gesture to Lu Qiqi.

They knew about Princess Lian'an's coming, but others didn't know.

It's not something that can be brought up.

Lu Qiqi stuck out her tongue, in fact, she didn't speak in a loud voice, she just complained like this.

"Sister Quan, are you curious about who that distinguished guest is?" She asked, tilting her head.

Quan Rou glanced at it, not far from the little girl, and then she said to Lu Seventeen, "If it was an ordinary guest, I'm afraid I wouldn't have asked you and me to go down." I estimated that Jiang Xiaohou and the two were also called. ”

Lu Qiqi nodded, "Yes, that's the case." ”

There are many people who can be called honored by the big shopkeeper. But there are not many who can ask the great treasurer to send someone to invite them down to meet them.

In fact, at the beginning, Lu Qiqi guessed the answer on Princess Lian'an, and there was nothing wrong with it.

After all, there are only a few people who can guess.

Now that Quan Rou said this, Lu Qiqi remembered someone. "It can't be the second prince, right?"

She lowered her voice, and Kwon Rou stopped and looked at her, both of whom saw a hint of surprise in each other's eyes.

How do you ask the second prince to greet them when they come? No matter how you think about this, it's not about Quan Rou and Lu Seventeen.

The two of them were guessing all the way.

In the hall of the backyard, a man sat on the Taishi chair directly above, with a beautiful face and a golden crown engraved with a dragon picture on his head. The silver-white robe on his body revealed a sense of luxury.

The man next to him was dressed in a low-key manner, with a scholarly temperament. He was looking down and listening to what he was saying.

"Where's the man?" Voices of questioning were heard outside.

The two men above stopped and looked up at the door.

The four carved wooden doors were pushed open, and the peach-faced Jiang Xiaohou stepped in, followed by Xun Jiuye, who was about the same size.

As soon as the two of them saw the people inside, they all restrained their usual hanging, and first saluted respectfully, "Jiang Wenruo has seen the second prince. ”

"Xun Zi'an has seen the second prince."

The two of them are respectful and usually like two people.

When the second prince saw it, a gentle smile hung between his eyebrows, and he stretched out his hand and said, "The little marquis and the son are more polite." Hurry up, please. ”

Jiang Xiaohou Ye was not polite, answered yes, and stood up, Xun Jiuye hurriedly followed him to the position on the left and sat down.

"Little Marquis Jiang." The young man who followed the second prince nodded towards Jiang Chen and Xun Jiuye.

Jiang Chen raised his hand and arched at him, "Young Master Jia." ”

Naja looked like a scholar. But it's not quite the same as Wang Xu's. Jia Yu is more like a person from the Confucian Mansion. Compared with Wang Xu, in the eyes of everyone, he is indeed the material for only reading sage books.

This time he was sent to follow the second prince, Jiang Chen was quite surprised.

However, when people greeted him, Jiang Chen didn't say much, just gave his hand in response.

Xun Jiuye was in a daze when he looked at the purse hanging on his body. It's none of his business. Before he came, Jiang Xiaohou explained and told him not to talk nonsense, just listen.

In the words of Jiang Xiaohouye, that is, less talk, less mistakes.

Xun Jiuye regretted it just now because he said that he missed his mouth, so he didn't want to talk more. I'd rather sit on the side by myself now.

Listen to them, and don't look up. Just put it against its head.

Jia Yu's eyes were not on him, and he only said a few words to Jiang Chen.

It was the second prince who suddenly called Xun Jiuye, "Zi'an, why don't you speak?" ”

He called people by their names as if they were very close to them.

But it gave Xun Jiuye a layer of goosebumps.

Xun Jiuye said that he was about to die of fright.

Originally, he thought that there was nothing to do with him, he just needed to sit on the side and wait for Jiang Xiaohou to play Tai Chi with them, but he didn't expect the second prince to call himself.

He can't stop talking, can he? Xun Jiuye pulled the corners of his mouth and laughed twice, "Ah, I'll listen, it's enough to listen." ”

Although this was a bit bland to say, Jiang Xiaohou felt that this person was finally smart. The second prince is now named Xun Jiu, but he doesn't know how he thinks about it in his heart.

It's better to simply block it and not call the second prince and continue.

The second prince seemed to be a little puzzled, "Didn't we say it too fast, Zi'an couldn't keep up?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Jiang Xiaohou frowned first. These two princes, looking harmless to humans and animals, are pressing step by step no matter how they say a word.

It seems that Xun Jiuye must be forced to speak.

Xun Jiu was really a little uncomfortable. But because it was the second prince who asked him, he couldn't say anything, so he could only smile, "No, no, I'm stupid, you say, I'll just listen." ”

He adhered to the instructions of Jiang Xiaohou, replied like this, and stopped talking.

He pursed his lips and smiled, looking a little shy.

The second prince was blocked, and he couldn't do anything, so he could only say this. Immediately afterwards, he turned his head and talked to Jiang Chen about this spring banquet.

"My father said that there were many things in the court and China a few years ago, and I didn't have the time and energy to send people to Jinling. This time it was easy to catch up, so he sent me, an idler. ”

This sentence can be regarded as explaining to Jiang Xiaohou Ye that they came here purely because of the emperor's whim, and there is no other purpose.

But the more this kind of thing is explained, the more unclear it becomes, but it makes Jiang Chen more and more vigilant in his heart.

When Jia Yu, who was beside the second prince, heard this, his face sank a little at that time, but he still opened his mouth and added, "Your Majesty is also concerned about the people of Jinling, and wants to take advantage of this spring banquet to hold a ceremony to worship the heavens in the Great Xiangguo Temple, in order to show your awe of the heavens." ”

The second prince has said everything there, and no matter how Jia Yu explains, he seems a little weak. In this case, simply throw out the purpose of coming, which is also reassuring to people's hearts.

Speaking openly, it's better to be more comfortable than you and me coming to the yin people.

Jiang Chen understood why the emperor sent Jia Pre here. Relying on these two princes, it is estimated that this trip can be said to be in vain.
