Chapter 263: Harmony
"It's just right to come, let's make a few good dishes today and be lively together," Tang Meng turned around with a smile but found that the person behind him seemed to have a difficult face, "What's wrong?" ”
Before the next person could explain, he saw that Duan Jingyi and the two had already entered the gate, and walked through the main courtyard to come here.
Duan Jingyi's face was normal, but Duan Jingqi's face was ......
Tang Meng looked stunned, it seems that today is really not a suitable day for a lively day.
Xiao Tao and Xing'er naturally looked at their faces, they first settled a few children in the side room to eat, and then ordered someone to bring a few plates of pastries over and send them to Tang Mengwu.
At this time, the room was quiet, Tang Meng and Duan Jingyi looked at each other and sighed.
There is no need to ask, Duan Jingqi's current black green has already shown everything, and he has lost a lot of weight after only two days of not seeing him, obviously because Li Ziyan is not thinking about it.
I didn't expect that the moment that everyone was looking forward to would be like this after it came, and it was not as comfortable as the days when the two of them secretly met in Yiwang's Mansion before, and it was really a matter of instant change.
Tang Meng poured Duan Jingqi a cup of tea and said softly, "I have heard about you and Yan'er, if you are sad, say it, don't hold it back." ”
Duan Jingqi's eyes were distracted, "It's a good thing that Li Kang can go back safely, I'm happy for Yan'er." ”
"I really feel uncomfortable when you say this, otherwise I will call Yan'er to me in a few days, and you will see you again?"
Duan Jingqi shook his head, "Yan'er has made up her mind, and it will be her wedding day in the next year, and I don't want her to be sad because of me," Duan Jingqi still hung his head, he paused and continued to speak, "I came today to ask my sister-in-law for something." ”
Tang Meng hurriedly nodded, "You said, as long as I can do it, I will definitely not refuse." ”
Duan Jingqi raised his head, his eyes were red, and he looked at the courtyard outside, as if everything he and Li Ziyan met here was re-displayed in front of him, and he couldn't forget the evening when they hugged each other for the first time here.
"Can my sister-in-law teach me how to make a bicycle, I want to give it to her as a wedding gift."
"But......" Tang Meng's words carefully weighed for a moment before he said cautiously, "That's a memory that only belongs to the two of you, and if you bring it to the General's Mansion, there will inevitably be someone next to you to protect her......"
Although Tang Meng said vaguely, Duan Jingqi had already heard it very clearly, Li Ziyan couldn't ride a bicycle and he had always been by his side to protect her, and when she wanted to ride again in the future, there would only be Jiang Chongji by her side, Tang Meng was afraid that Jiang Chongji would slowly replace Duan Jingqi's position in Li Ziyan's heart.
Duan Jingqi shook his head with a wry smile, "Jiang Chongji has already said that he will treat her well, and he will beg her to be happy, as long as she can be happy, the person around her is not me, I ...... It's all acceptable. ”
"How so?" Tang Meng didn't have time to feel sorry for him, "Didn't Jiang Chongji say that he wanted to fulfill you, when will he come to dig the foot of the wall again!" Isn't there some misunderstanding? ”
"Jiang Chongji said it to me in person when I entered the palace with him last time," Duan Jingqi suddenly raised his head and sighed, and at the same time held back the already blurred tears back into his eyes again, "If Yan'er can really like him, I can be relieved." ”
"How can this work?" Tang Meng suddenly slapped the table, "It's not wrong for Yan'er to want to guard your family, but it doesn't prevent you from falling in love underground, eh...... It's secretly together, anyway, it was like this before, why can't it be now? ”
Duan Jingqi hugged his head in pain, "Because Yan'er is going to get married, she will no longer be her after that, and everything will not go back to the past!" Even if Jiang Chongji respects her like a guest, we can't see each other again, if someone is caught over there, it will be the sin of the Li family! ”
"Raiding all over the house?" Tang Meng subconsciously looked at Duan Jingyi opposite.
Duan Jingyi, who had been silent, finally spoke in a deep voice, "It is a capital crime for an ordinary woman to not abide by women's morals, but this time it is a marriage given by her father, if there is any rumors, it will be the sin of the entire Li family, and in order to protect Li Kang, Li Ziyan will definitely not act in vain." ”
"It's because of marriage! Lovers can't be together because of marriage, and now because of this, there are many additional costs, why should they make decisions for others! ”
Xing'er was startled and hurriedly reminded in a whisper, "Niang Niang is cautious." ”
"I'm going to say, it's just the bad habit of kneeling when you see people here, what the hell is it to make decisions for others at every turn? And is there a little bit of personal liberty! Can the emperor and the princes and nobles really have the right to decide the life and death and marriage of others? Why should the low-class people listen to them, and the prince will have a kind of peace? ”
The more Tang Meng spoke, the more angry she became, and when she calmed down a little, she found that the room full of people were staring at her with wide eyes, only Duan Jingyi was holding the teacup and drinking it slowly, with a look on her face as if she was saying, 'What my lady said is right, it doesn't matter, I'll carry it if I get into trouble'.
Tang Meng also felt that she was a little excited, she didn't know when she actually stood up, and there was one leg directly on the stool.
She blinked weakly, put down her legs and sat back in place obediently, "That, I mean ......"
"Sister-in-law, do you want the minions to rebel against us?" Duan Jingqi was really stupid by Tang Meng's remarks, and his question at this time was extremely dull and cute.
"No, no," Tang Meng waved her hand hurriedly, she had seen a lot of episodes from TV about the uprising and overthrow the dynasty in ancient times, no matter which dynasty this kind of thing happened, it was a death and injury, she definitely didn't want to be the one who started the war, "I just want to say that no one can make decisions for others, even if the father and emperor are kind, then there should be room for withdrawal, and it can't be a death order as soon as it is spoken, and everyone is sad." ”
Duan Jingqi nodded again, "Sister-in-law's knowledge is really different from others, but my father's side will not take back her fate, and the only thing I can do for Yan'er is to make a beloved thing for her with my own hands." ”
Tang Meng also sighed, turned around and instructed Xing'er to bring the drawings of the bicycle she had drawn earlier to Duan Jingqi, and advised, "If you go back, if you don't understand something, just come and ask me." ”
Duan Jingqi's eyes that had just dried began to flush again, but after the drawing, he nodded and left sadly.
Tang Meng pulled the door frame to look at his departing back and felt a pain in his heart, "Jing Yi, is there really no way for us to help them anymore?" ”
"After all, the matter between him and Li Ziyan is still an internal problem, and now a group of more tricky people are here," Duan Jingyi said in a cold voice, turning around and speaking outside, "Ling Qing." ”
Suddenly, a black shadow fell in the courtyard, "Lord Wang, the envoy of the ice has already passed Hongdu, and there are about two or three days before he can reach the imperial city." ”
"Two or three days? Doesn't that happen to be the time of the Chinese New Year? Tang Meng's eyes widened suddenly, "What are they sending envoys to do at this time?" ”
Duan Jingyi raised his eyes and said in a cold voice, "Kiss." ”
Tang Meng was instantly hit in place, "Who do you want to make peace with?" ”
Duan Jingyi sighed slowly, "Bing Qiguo said that he was grateful to his father for his help and sent the princess over, but in fact, he wanted to bind the relationship between the two countries by using his relatives, since his father could allow them to come, he naturally felt that such an exchange condition could be considered, as for the candidates for harmony, they were naturally selected from among the princes, but ......"
"But what?" Tang Meng became nervous, and looked at Duan Jingyi with a pair of big eyes.
Duan Jingyi suddenly hooked his lips and smiled, "Meng'er is worried about me?" Afraid that this friendly princess will come to our backyard? ”
Tang Meng was caught off guard and immediately turned red when he was poked, and then turned his head and pretended to be relaxed, "Whoever is worried about you, you can marry whoever you like, I won't be a little jealous!" ”
After saying that, she was angry and wanted to go to the side room to see Huzi and them, but she didn't want to be pulled by Duan Jingyi as soon as she started, and then the whole person fell into his arms, Xing'er snickered and pulled Xiao Tao out of the room together, no matter how Tang Meng shouted inside, the two of them didn't have the slightest intention of stopping.
Until the door was completely closed, Tang Meng was even more angry, "These two people who are not righteous! Open the door! ”
Duan Jingyi's evil face slowly approached, "What are you doing when you open it?" Isn't it a dream to be seen by everyone? ”
