Chapter Eighty-Six: Clumsy
The young man hurriedly denied it, lowered his eyes and shook his head, "I didn't see anything." β
Qi Yuzhi stepped forward with a cold face, grabbed the young man's collar, and threatened in a cold voice: "Today's matter, if you dare to confide half a word, I will make you look good." β
"Yes, I'll quit first." The young man lowered his head, didn't dare to look at Chu Yuezi again, and left in a hurry.
"Who's that guy?" Chu Yuezi took two steps forward and asked.
"Third brother Qi Yuheng." Qi Yuzhi said disdainfully, "It's just a concubine, he doesn't dare to talk nonsense outside." β
One of the Qi Yu has a total of four brothers, the eldest brother and he are from the main room, the third and the fourth are concubines, the eldest prince of the Duke of Qi is the eldest son, and he can inherit the title of the Duke of this country in the future, and the literary talent of Qi Yu is outstanding, and he will have something to do in the future, as for the two sons of the concubine, they have no sense of existence and are ignored.
Looking at his cousin's appearance of being so obedient and respectful, Chu Yuezi never thought about how powerful he used to be in front of his cousin, he only felt that he was majestic, and he admired him very much in his heart.
"Your eldest brother and your father went to southern Shaanxi on official business, count the days, and you will be back soon, right?" Chu Yuezi asked.
"I should be back before the poetry meeting."
"How sure do you think you are going to inherit the dukedom?" Chu Yuezi asked with a turn of his eyes.
"This ......," Qi Yuzhi's face was embarrassed, "my father is still healthy, I shouldn't think about these problems." Besides, the eldest brother is the eldest son, and this title should be inherited by him, and I shouldn't have coveted it. β
He glanced at Chu Yuezi's face, and said, "Even if I can't inherit this title, with my talent, I promise that I will be able to earn a title by myself in the future and earn you a fate." β
Chu Yuezi smiled: "What kind of title is not a title, what is not a title, I just said it casually, why are you still serious?" High-ranking officials and dignitaries are not as good as staying with you. β
Qi Yuzhi hugged his sweetheart in his arms and said with emotion: "I will not live up to you." β
Qi Yuheng was afraid of his brother's scolding and hurriedly left, but he accidentally fell to the ground.
"Are you alright?" Chu Yue'an took two steps forward and helped the person up.
After Qi Yuheng got up, he hurriedly shook off Chu Yue'an's hand, took two steps back and arched his hand: "I'm fine, thank you." β
He left in a hurry, Chu Yue'an picked up a piece of paper that fell from him on the ground, opened it and took a look, this is an article, cleverly conceived, gorgeously written, and full of arguments, it is really a good article.
"Your stuff is gone." Chu Yue'an chuckled.
Qi Yuheng turned around, touched the inside of his sleeve, and then his face changed, and he took a few steps forward to take the article
"Are you the son of the Guogong Mansion?" Chu Yuean didn't give it, "Do you know who I am?" β
"I haven't seen you in the Guogong Mansion, presumably you are not from the Guogong Mansion, today my grandmother invited several young ladies from the Ninghou Mansion to come to the door, you are the maid of the Ninghou Mansion?" Qi Yuheng asked.
"I'm not a maid, I'm Chu Yue'an, the second lady of Ninghou Mansion." Chu Yue'an said lightly, "The eldest prince is not at home, the fourth prince is still young, you are Qi Yuheng, the third prince of the Guogong Mansion?" β
Qi Yuheng looked at Chu Yue'an's gaze and was a little surprised: "I didn't expect you to be the second miss, Fang is my rudeness, please don't blame the second miss." β
Chu Yue'an approached Qi Yuheng and asked, "What did you just see?" Why are you in such a hurry? β
"I didn't see anything." Qi Yuheng hurriedly said.
"In the courtyard over there, your second brother, my fiancΓ©, is having a tryst with my third sister, right?" Chu Yuean asked with a light smile.
"You...... How did you? β
"I'm not angry at all, am I?" Chu Yue'an smiled meaningfully, and did not answer Qi Yuheng's question, "Let's talk about you, I have read your article, your writing is very good, it can be said that it surpasses the vast majority of family sons, but why in this capital, you don't have a little reputation?" Why are you hiding? β
Qi Yuheng smiled bitterly: "In this world, not everything has a reason, so why should the second young lady delve into it?" β
"I see, you can go." Chu Yuean returned the article to Qi Yuheng.
Qi Yuheng turned out, and after bowing, he hurriedly left.
Interesting, talented but not ambitious, hiding talent is only because I'm afraid that this Qi Yuzhi will be jealous, right? This person's talent is useless, and he is really aggrieved.
An interesting idea came to mind, the corners of Chu Yue'an's mouth were slightly raised, and his eyes were slightly narrowed, there must be a good show in this country's mansion.
In the afternoon, Chu Yue'an and Chu Yueyun went to greet Mrs. Qi, the old lady had already gotten up and was talking to Mrs. Yan, seeing that the two were coming, she was happy, talked for a while, and then took the two girls to the backyard for a walk.
There is a place in the backyard of this Guogong Mansion built by the mountain, with ups and downs, and four people can go up and rest in the pavilion on the top of the mountain, overlooking the scenery of the backyard of the Guogong Mansion.
Old Madam Qi was afraid that she would neglect the other two young ladies, so she sent someone to invite them to come over to talk and enjoy the scenery.
After a while, I saw the figures of the two young ladies at the foot of the mountain. The architecture of this mountain is peculiar, and the scenery below can be seen from above, but not from below. Therefore, the people above took in Chu Yuezi's figures, but from below, they looked as if there was no one on this mountain.
Just looking at Chu Yuezi's follow-up, how like a maid, the way these two get along is very different from the previous intimate relationship.
Old Madam Qi drank tea and didn't make a sound.
Chu Yue'an smiled lightly at the corner of her mouth, a small pebble flew out of her hand, hitting Chu Yuexi's knee, she was unsteady under her feet, and rushed forward, but she pushed Chu Yuezi in front of her, she stumbled two steps before she stood firmly.
Knowing that she had caused trouble, Chu Yue hurriedly lowered her head and admitted her mistake: "I'm sorry Third Sister, I didn't mean it." β
Chu Yuezi stared at Chu Yuezi fiercely and scolded: "Useless thing!" Seeing that there was no one left and right, he stepped forward and slapped him.
"Be clever later." Chu Yuezi tidied up her clothes, "Presumably, Chu Yue'an, the person from the Qi State Mansion, is still very disgusted, you just need to add another fire." β
Chu Yue lowered her eyes and nodded, "I know how to do it." β
The two of them went to the pavilion together and greeted Mrs. Qi and Mrs. Yan, but Mrs. Qi just lightly asked them to take a seat, and there was no change on her face.
Chu Yuezi still felt strange, she only felt that this old lady Qi was a lot colder than herself, and basically didn't talk to herself, as for Chu Yue'an and Chu Yueyun laughing, could it be that Chu Yue'an took advantage of her absence to say bad things about herself behind her back?
