Chapter 129: Poetry

In front of the second prince's mansion, carriages arrived one after another, and the nobles in Beijing came one after another, and many people came to the flower hall after a while. Zhou Qianru looked at it, she didn't recognize any of these people, and suddenly felt a little inferior.

Those ladies and gentlemen, some of them know each other, and some of them don't. Acquaintances met and sat together and chatted. If you don't know each other, ask which house you are from, and suddenly pull out people you know well, and suddenly shorten the distance.

At this time, Nangong Ling and Sima Shi also walked into the flower hall.

Nangong Ling glanced at it and didn't find the person she was looking for, but saw Ye Wanting sitting alone in the corner.

Nangong Ling turned her head and whispered to Sima Shi: "Isn't that Ye Wanting?" ”

Sima Shi followed her gaze, and sure enough, it was Ye Wanting, the eldest lady of the Ye Mansion.

They actually didn't know Ye Wanting, but Sima Shi secretly admired Nangong You at the beginning, and later news came out that Nangong You was engaged to Miss Ye Fu, and Sima Shifang was heartbroken. She was very curious about what kind of woman Nangong You was going to marry, so she and Nangong Ling quietly went to Ye Mansion to take a peek at Ye Wanting.

Nangong Ling said disdainfully: "She actually has a face." ”

Sima Shi looked at the woman sitting alone over there and felt sorry for her. Such an excellent man, she refused to marry because of his crippled leg. If it were her, even if he was paralyzed in bed, she would marry him without hesitation. Now that King Xuan's legs have recovered, she should have regretted it a little.

Sima Shi no longer cared about Ye Wanting, she wanted to see Ye Xiaoyan even more now, so she asked Nangong Ling: "Will Princess Xuan also come?" ”

"Well," Nangong Ling said a little unhappily, "She said she would come yesterday." ”

Nangong Ling pulled Sima Shi out and said, "Let's go to the front hall." ”

"Wouldn't it be bad where I go?" Sima Shi asked. Because the antechamber is reserved for royalty.

"Don't you want to see Ye Xiaoyan? She's not going to come here. Nangong Ling said.

"Why?"

"There are talented women here, and her little cleverness can only be played in front of me, if she dares to come to the flower hall, she will soon be exposed."

Nangong Ling told Sima Shi about Ye Xiaoyan's three poems at the "Talent Poetry Club" yesterday, and Sima Shi had never read those three poems. However, she felt that maybe she hadn't read enough books, so she didn't know. Nangong Ling asked Sima Shi to help her write a scolding poem, and she wanted to fight back against Ye Xiaoyan, but Sima Shi couldn't do it after thinking about it for a long time. She really doesn't scold.

At this time, the carriage of the Xuanwang Mansion arrived at the Second Prince's Mansion. Ye Xiaoyan ordered the carriage with sesame oil to wait at the back door of the prince's mansion, while she and Nangong You entered through the front door.

The second prince and Jiang Manrong heard that King Xuan and his wife were coming, and they came out to greet them in person.

Nangong Xu smiled: "Third Emperor Brother, how long have you not come to my mansion?" ”

Nangong smiled: "It's been a long time." ”

Nangong Xu said: "In the future, you will come to my house often, and let the third brother and sister and Man Rong also move around more." ”

"Hehe, okay." Nangong Yu casually snorted haha.

Jiang Manrong took Ye Xiaoyan's hand and said with a smile: "Princess Xuan is the first time to come to our house, and we will come and go often in the future." ”

"That's nature." Ye Xiaoyan smiled with a spring breeze on her face. As he spoke, he pulled Jiang Manrong's sleeve and whispered to her: "I brought some things, and now I am at the back door of your house, and I bother you to order someone to pick them up." ”

"What's that?" Jiang Manrong asked.

"Sesame oil," Ye Xiaoyan said, "the first time I came to visit, a little souvenir." ”

Jiang Manrong ordered someone to pick him up at the back door, and said to Ye Xiaoyan: "Princess Xuan is really polite. ”

"Where, I hope the second sister-in-law will not dislike it."

"What did Princess Xuan say, today is the first time you came, I will accept this gift, and in the future, don't bring any more gifts, otherwise I won't dare to go to your house."

"Hahaha, good, good."

The two talked and laughed, as if they had exchanged handkerchiefs for many years.

Nangong Xu knew Jiang Manrong's temperament and knew that her surface kung fu was very powerful. It's just that he was a little surprised by Ye Xiaoyan. The first time I met at the palace, she was silent. I saw you yesterday at the Cai Poetry Conference, she is very smart. See you today, she's a different face. This woman, as Manrong said, is not simple.

Nangong You looked at the two women in front of him who were talking and laughing, he felt that his family Yan'er could get along with anyone, and he really didn't know how she developed this character.

Before a few people reached the front hall, Jiang Manrong's subordinate who had ordered to pick up things just now ran back and whispered to Jiang Manrong: "Imperial Princess, there are a lot of things sent by Princess Xuan, and the small ones don't know what to do with them, so I want to ask the imperial princess to show them." ”

When Jiang Manrong heard this, he turned his head and asked Ye Xiaoyan, "How much sesame oil did you bring?" ”

Ye Xiaoyan said: "Two hundred boxes." ”

"Two hundred boxes?" Jiang Manrong was surprised. She had received a gift box of sesame oil from someone else before, and she knew how big a box was. Two hundred boxes, that's a lot. No wonder it has to be sent straight to the back door.

Jiang Manrong said to Ye Xiaoyan: "You go to the front hall to drink tea first, and I'll take a look." ”

"Okay."

Ye Xiaoyan smiled and let go of Jiang Manrong's hand. Jiang Manrong and his subordinates went to the back door.

Nangong Xu saw Jiang Manrong leave and asked, "What is she going to do?" ”

Nangong You heard their conversation and said, "Yan'er brought some souvenirs, and the second imperial sister-in-law went to take a look." ”

Nangong Xu was puzzled, what was it, and Man Rong needed to see it in person. However, it was sent by the Xuanwang Mansion, and it was polite to go and see it.

The three of them walked into the front hall, Nangong Chen and Nangong Ling were already sitting, and there was also a young lady.

"Third Emperor Brother," Nangong Chen stood up, and at the same time greeted Ye Xiaoyan: "Third Emperor Sister-in-law." ”

Nangong Ling sat still and didn't move, Sima Shi stood up and saluted: "Meet King Xuan, meet Princess Xuan." ”

"Huh? Miss Sima is also there. Nangong You was a little surprised.

Ye Xiaoyan looked at Nangong You and said hello, and thought: He knows a lot of girls.

Sima Shi lowered her head shyly and said, "I came with the second princess." ”

Ye Xiaoyan looked at the girl in front of her, and saw that she was about the same size as herself, she was petite and delicate, looking shy and timid, and she looked very shy.

"Third Emperor Brother," Nangong Ling said at this time, "You haven't seen Shishi for several years!" Do you remember when you said that you like things like poetry? ”

When Nangong Ling saw Ye Xiaoyan in the palace for the first time, she was shocked to find that she was very similar to Sima Shi, both of them were petite and delicate, and they looked shy and timid.

Of course, Ye Xiaoyan at that time was pretending.

Nangong Ling suddenly felt that Ye Xiaoyan had taken advantage of Sima Shi. She remembered that the Third Emperor Brother had said that he liked people like Sima Shi.

Nangong You was stunned by Nangong Ling's words: Did he say such a thing? Why didn't he remember?

There was no change in the expression on Ye Xiaoyan's face, she knew what Nangong You liked about her, how could Nangong You be cold to a shy person.

He himself is an introvert, and if he is an introvert again, then the two of them will be relatively speechless. Nangong You doesn't like to be relatively speechless. Don't look at him calm on the outside, but in fact he is fanatical on the inside. Only those who are close to him know what kind of person he really is.
