Chapter 256: Relatives Estranged 4

Lin Ruo looked at Qu Xiaoxiang, and the calmness on his face did not lose half a point: "There are many good men in Donglu, but in my opinion, it is better to choose one who is worthy of Xiaoxiang and you, it is better to choose one who is in love with you." Face is for others to see, and life is what you want to live. If a person drinks water, he knows whether he is warm or cold. ”

The queen mother and the emperor did choose a husband worthy of her for Qu Xiaoxiang - Murong Chong. However, the king of Donglu Rong, who had great military achievements, refused, and now, he married Lin Ruo as the concubine of King Rong.

This is something that Lin Ruo and Qu Xiaoxiang know very well to each other. Qu Xiaoxiang mentioned it without a trace, and Lin Ruosi replied with a thousand pounds.

Back and forth, whether it is his look, words and deeds, Lin Ruo can't find anything wrong. This made Qu Xiaoxiang even more confirmed that this Princess Rong must be a very thoughtful master.

"Two lovers? Ah Ruo's idea is shocking. The order of the parents, the words of the matchmaker, how can we, as women, be qualified to make decisions about our marriage? It's up to the elders to decide. ”

Hmph, two lovers? Are you Lin Ruo and King Rong?

Qu Xiaoxiang's hand hidden in his sleeve clenched his fists tightly, but the smile on his face did not change at all.

"That's right."

Lin Ruoqian smiled and echoed Qu Xiaoxiang's words, without making any excuses. Her reaction made Qu Xiaoxiang feel that his punch was like hitting cotton, and he couldn't use any strength.

In the Lin De Hall, the music sounded and the song and dance began.

Dancers dressed in light gauze and colorful clothes danced in the hall, whitewashing the image of a prosperous era of singing and dancing.

At this moment, what kind of scene is it in the bitterly cold north?

Probably a bonfire was lit, and the generals and soldiers drank together!

Lin Ruo thought about it, and unconsciously remembered that she and Murong Chong had been drinking all night on the roof of the palace, and I didn't know if anyone in the northern army at this moment could accompany Murong Chong to drink for a night.

Thinking about it, the corners of Lin Ruo's mouth unconsciously hooked, and his face was filled with a sweet smile.

This smile fell in Qu Xiaoxiang's eyes, which was extremely dazzling.

The two of them, who were happy and angry, were immersed in their own thoughts, and when the crisp sound of "Dangchang" pulled the two of them back, they found that it was the wine glass in Qu Xiaoxiang's hand that fell to the ground, and the wine that was originally in the cup was spilled on Lin Ruo's body.

"I'm sorry, Arro, I ......"

"Nothing." Lin Ruo smiled and explained apologetically, "It's me who is shaking." ”

“……”

Even apologizing will put himself in the shoes of others, this Lin Ruo is really difficult to deal with!

Qu Xiaoxiang thought so, but she couldn't really think that she was completely innocent, and there were some wine stains splashed on her skirt, so she and Lin Ruo confessed and left to change her dress.

"Hey, don't say it, this Fengyang County Lord and Princess Rong really look alike! I believe that they are sisters! ”

"I also said that the Queen Mother once worked as a matchmaker for the county lord of Fengyang and wanted to marry her to King Rong, but King Rong didn't agree. You say, will it ......?"

"Shhhhh

After the reminder, the whispering voice gradually disappeared, but the gossiping official wives and ladies still made eye contact, trying to find some unknown secrets.

Not only the palace ladies and ladies were discussing this, but even Lu Yun, who had served the Queen Mother for decades, also whispered to the Queen Mother: "Look, the relationship between Miss Qu and Miss Lin is very good!" ”

Lu Yun is the personal maid that the Queen Mother brought with her when she entered the palace, and she was also born in Qu Mansion and knew about Qu Lianyang, the fifth lady of Qu, so she also knew Lin Ruo's identity. Therefore, in private, I still call these two "Miss Qu" and "Miss Lin".

The Queen Mother looked at the figure of the two leaving hand in hand and did not speak.

Good relationship?

It's just a superficial look.

has been immersed in the harem for decades, and the queen mother's eyes are vicious, which is incomparable to ordinary people. These two girls were originally cousins, but they didn't know each other's backgrounds. One grew up in front of the Duke of Dian and was spoiled; Although the other has the identity of the county lord and is married to the prince, he has suffered too much since he was a child, and he is wise and sensible.

In contrast, although Qu Xiaoxiang is older and looks more stable, in fact, compared to Lin Ruo, the Queen Mother is even more worried about Qu Xiaoxiang.

Lin Ruo is a child who knows the general and knows how to measure proportions, but Qu Xiaoxiang has never suffered any setbacks since she was a child, the only time was when she had a heel in her marriage to King Rong, and now she looks calm on the surface, but there is still unwillingness and resentment in her eyes when she looks at Lin Ruo.

In the end, it is a person of the Qu family, every word and deed is related to the rise and fall of the Qu family!

The Queen Mother also had to take it to heart. But at this moment, it is not the best policy to send someone to follow them, so I can only hope that Lin Ruo can tolerate it and not let Qu Xiaoxiang have right and wrong.

I have to admit that the old lady has lived so long and knows enough about the temperament of several children. It's a pity that she didn't expect that it was not these two girls who almost caused trouble, but another person. Of course, she did not underestimate Lin Ruo's ability, and in the end, it did not cause serious consequences.

"Oops!"

Lin Ruo, who had finished changing his clothes, suddenly exclaimed when he was halfway through.

"What's wrong with Ah Ruo?"

"Princess, what's going on?"

"My earrings are missing......"

Several people looked at it, and indeed, the earrings on Lin Ruo's left ear were missing, and there was an emerald green earring on his right ear. If you look closely, the design of this earring is very chic, and on the drop-shaped jadeite embellished on the ground, it is a pattern that looks like a concentric knot, simple and elegant, and generous. At a glance, it is clear that it is not from the hands of ordinary craftsmen.

Seeing that Lin Ruo values this pair of earrings so much, I'm afraid that they still have some special significance......

"Don't worry, princess. I remember when you changed your clothes, the earrings were still there, and I was afraid that when they fell on the road. I'll go back and find it right away! ”

Youcao was about to go back to look for the lantern, but was stopped by Lin Ruo.

"This black light is blinding, such a small thing, I'm afraid I won't be able to find it......"

Seeing that Lin Ruo's face was a little disappointed, Qu Xiaoxiang thought about it, and then instructed his maid and the palace maid who led the way: "You accompany Youcao to find it." ”

"But the county lord, what about you and the princess?"

Qu Xiaoxiang waved his hand: "It's okay, this is in the palace, nothing big will happen." Just leave us a lantern. ”

Seeing that the maidservants were all looking at each other, especially Youcao, they looked at Lin Ruo with concern.

"Don't worry, the lord of this county has been on the battlefield and killed the enemy! Your princess will hand it over to me, and it will be fine. ”

Youcao looked at Lin Ruo and saw her nodding, so she walked back and led everyone along the way to carefully look for the earring that fell at some point.

Looking at the distant lights and confirming that they couldn't hear their own voices, Qu Xiaoxiang spoke: "She is worthy of being a girl trained by Princess Rong, loyal and smart." ”
