Chapter 36 Be a good person
Although Mu Yu is the young lady of the Luanping Marquis Mansion, she rarely plays and gathers with the ladies of other families on weekdays.
She is a modern person and these beautiful thoughts are very different, and they can't talk together.
So she has always shirked the appointments of other ladies under the pretext of being busy with schoolwork, and others no longer ask her about her after a long time.
"Rumor, you see that this Li Miaozhen has always been at odds with us, but she invited us to her banquet, it won't be a Hongmen banquet, right?"
Although Lin Wanyun played with other people, she and Li Miaozhen were competing against each other, she was okay, but Li Miaozhen was like a big rooster, and she pinched when she saw her, how could she invite her at such an important banquet! Absolutely nothing good.
Mu Yu was also puzzled in his heart, supporting his little face with one hand, looking at the red banquet on the table, "After all, it is someone's banquet, and the invitations have been delivered, if the table is missing, it is not ours." ”
"Then I don't want to go, that woman is wilted and wilted, obviously only being a concubine, and she always wants to cling to the powerful."
"Maybe we're overthinking it!" Mu Yu lightly picked up a piece of peach blossom cake and put it on Lin Wanyun's mouth, and comforted her with a smile, "After all, it is a big deal, and she is invited by everyone." ”
"Really?" Lin Wanyun's big round eyes were shining, "Also, she shouldn't be so stupid to do things at her own banquet." ”
As Mu Yu said, Li Miaozhen and the young lady with the name on the day of the banquet were indeed invited, and almost all the young talents in the city came, and at first glance, I didn't know that I thought that the Li Mansion had a blind date banquet.
In order not to attract attention, Mu Yu only wore a beige silk dress, the skirt was embroidered with a few inconspicuous dark flowers, and the hair ornament was also the simplest Mingyu King Zhuhua, although it was not cumbersome, it was also dignified.
Lin Wanyun is the same, wearing a light green gauze skirt, combing a cute hanging hair, and standing in the corner with Mu Yu obediently.
"Li Miaozhen really invited everyone, it seems that I thought too much. My eldest brother is on duty today, so he didn't come with me, so I don't know if he will arrive now. Lin Wanyun padded her feet and looked around for Lin Changjin's figure.
"Rumors, who do you think is that? Why are so many girls around? ”
Mu Yu followed Lin Yunyun's fingers and looked over, two tall men dressed in black and white, standing in the middle of a group of girls was particularly conspicuous.
It's just the back, but Mu Yu recognized Big Guy Xie at a glance, a black robe with gold wire hooks, auspicious clouds and dark lines, obviously a low-key color, but it was a coldness that people couldn't take their eyes off when they wore it on him.
"Cousin?" Lin Wanyun pouted slightly disgusted after being surprised.
The white-clothed Fang Xiao turned his face sideways, stared at the girls with narrow fox eyes, and a dissolute smile on the corner of his mouth, greeting the girls politely.
Xie Chongning seemed to feel a familiar gaze, turned around, and his cold eyes suddenly locked on Mu Yu not far away.
The two glanced at each other in the air, and Mu Yu immediately turned his head unnaturally, and pulled Lin Yunyun's sleeve, "Is it time for your eldest brother to arrive?" ”
Lin Wanyun retracted her gaze, glanced at Mu Yu with an ambiguous look, and gently bumped her shoulder, "You won't be like a day without seeing each other, right?" ”
"It's almost time, and the banquet is about to begin." Mu Yu pretended not to hear, pointed to the crowd walking towards the courtyard, and reminded.
"Oh, what are you shy about, anyway, you will be my sister-in-law in the future."
"Sister-in-law, what sister-in-law?" Fang Xiao appeared behind the two of them at some point, and asked with a smile.
Lin Wanyun took a breath, turned his head and glared at Fang Xiao with disgust, and said flatly, "Cousin, what kind of magic skills have you cultivated, why don't you walk without making a sound?" Scared the hell out of me. ”
Mu Yu also subconsciously turned around, and happened to face Xie Chongning, who was looking at him with lowered eyes behind him.
"I've seen the Son, I've seen Lord Xie." With that, she turned her head away and stopped talking.
Mu Yu's hair was scattered on both sides, just revealing a white neck, and because of the candlelight, Xie Chongning could even see the fluff on the snow-white erect neck.
"Walk with your head up." Xie Chongning opened his eyes unnaturally.
Big Guy Xie was urging behind him, and Mu Yu had to listen obediently and straighten his waist obediently.
Fortunately, the positions of the guests are all in order, and characters with heads and faces like Xie Chongning are naturally arranged at the main table, while Lin Wanyun and Mu Yu, who Li Miaozhen doesn't want to see, are naturally far away from them.
Without Xie Chongning's oppression, Mu Yu was really unhappy, Lin Changjin and Lin Yunyun were brother and sister, so they naturally shared the same table with them.
Lin Changjin didn't know when he came, and he had already sat at the table in advance.
"Brother Lin." Mu Yu nodded and said hello, she originally wanted Lin Wanyun to sit next to her brother Lin Changjin, but Lin Yunyun reacted quickly and sat in the second position on Lin Changjin's right hand.
Mu Yu pursed his lips, and could only sit between the two of them, and he couldn't help but look a little restrained.
"How is Sister Yu'er's health? Have you ever had a nightmare? Lin Changjin's eyes were full of tenderness and asked intimately.
"Thank you Brother Lin for your concern, I'm fine." Mu Yu replied softly, but Lin Changjin on the side was extremely natural, and he was not affected at all by the failure of the confession that day, so Mu Yu naturally relaxed.
As soon as the time came, and the banquet began, Li Miaozhen slowly walked into everyone's sight in a gorgeous brocade, if she didn't speak, she was a dignified lady.
There is another one who arrived on time, that is, the king of Anping, who is deeply loved by the emperor.
Mu Yu casually glanced at the luxuriously dressed county king, and obediently nested at the side table, occasionally chatting with Lin Yunyun.
After Lin Changjin had such a heart-to-heart talk, the big boy of Sunshine was no longer shy and afraid to speak, but developed towards the route of a warm man, and from time to time he took chopsticks to sandwich some pastries for his two younger sisters.
"Big brother, if you have a sister-in-law, you won't forget your sister, don't worry, sister, I will definitely support you." Lin Yunyun looked at the crystal cake in the porcelain bowl with her little tiger teeth exposed, and smiled so slyly.
"Eating can't stop your mouth." Mu Yu frowned, and the whole pastry in his hand was stuffed straight into Lin Yunyun's mouth.
Li Miaozhen politely saluted the people at the main table, and when she came to the side table, her momentum changed, "This pastry made by the imperial chef tastes good, right?" ”
Lin Wanyun didn't pay attention to Li Miaozhen's yin and yang weirdness, and nodded seriously.
"Yes, I don't think you have eaten anything good." The hall was lively, and if it wasn't for sitting nearby, no one would be able to hear what Li Miaozhen said.
Lin Wanyun, whose cheeks were bulging, seemed to be an angry hamster, staring at Li Miaozhen with big eyes, if it weren't for the fact that her mouth was full of pastries, she would definitely refute.
"The house invited the imperial kitchen for Miss Li, it seems that the emperor really gave face to Lord Li." Mu Yu smiled indifferently.
Anyone who knows some political history knows that when he was young, the emperor was deeply restricted by the cabinet, and now the emperor has cultivated a lot of talents, in order to compete with the cabinet.
To put it bluntly, there is a layer of window paper between the emperor and the cabinet, although no one takes the initiative to pierce it, but the two parties have long been incompatible.
So Mu Yu's words are a dynamite.
Li Miaozhen has the heart to marry the king of Anping County, and Scholar Li will naturally give her instructions on the situation between the DPRK and China.
Hearing this, her face sank, and she immediately retorted, "What are you talking about?" It was because the emperor took a fancy to my father, so he sent the imperial kitchen to cook a banquet for me. ”
"Oh, but I lost my words, which made Miss Li smile." Mu Yu bowed his head slightly and apologized generously.
People who don't know Mu Yu's dark belly, seeing Mu Yu's neat and simple apology, really think that it was her momentary gaffe.
On the main table, Xie Chongning's eyes were deep, the corners of his mouth were dyed with a touch of curvature, and he raised his head and drank the wine in his hand.
Li Miaozhen no longer mentioned the imperial kitchen after eating, but touched the pale green bell beads in her ear, which was quite a bit of a show-off.
When the eyes of several people fell on her bell bead, she smiled softly, "Oh, you guys are sharp-eyed, and you can see at once that my bell bead is a priceless treasure." ”
……
Actually, we don't know, it's you who show it off.
Regardless of whether anyone responded, Li Miaozhen continued to say, "This is the Yeming ear bell given to me by the king of Anping County as a gift, and this is the only pair in the world." ”
It looks like an ordinary Jade King Zhu, and I don't know what to show off, Lin Wanyun swallowed the pastry in his mouth, and just about to say something disgusting, he felt as if someone was pulling his cuffs.
As soon as she turned her gaze to Mu Yu, she approached Mu Yu and said, "I see, no wonder I think Miss Li is particularly beautiful today." ”
Li Miaozhen, who was showing off her ears, saw Mu Yu's envious appearance and achieved her goal, snorted arrogantly, wiped Lin Wanyun's shoulder with disdain, and walked to the other table to continue boasting.
"You're stopping me again...... Look at her peacock screen. Lin Wanyun looked at Li Miaozhen, who was twisting three times in one step, and pouted angrily.
"Look at you, you can have an oil bottle on your mouth." Mu Yu was helpless and spoiled, "Today is her and the banquet, what are you talking about with her?" ”
"But if you want me to let her go everywhere, I'm not reconciled."
Mu Yu held the slightly wide sleeve robe in his right hand with his left hand, and elegantly picked up the pastry and put it in the porcelain bowl in front of Lin Yunyun, "How can this be said to be allowed?" The dog bites you, is it possible for you to bite back? ”
Listening to Mu Yu's roundabout scolding Li Miaozhen for being a dog, Lin Yunyun felt a lot happier in her heart, raised her eyebrows and laughed.
"Is that right, you and the dog bite each other, do you say that others will say that the dog is crazy, or will they say that you are crazy?"
Lin Yunyun was deeply impressed by Mu Yu's theory, "Okay, then I'll be a good person." ”
Halfway through the banquet, I don't know why, the maids who were serving around were hurrying around, wandering around, not knowing what they were looking for.
"What's wrong?" Lin Wanyun also sensed the abnormality of the maids and asked in a low voice.
Mu Yu shook his head in confusion.
"These maids seem to be looking for something." Lin Changjin explained, and then he grabbed a maid who passed by him and asked, "But what happened?" ”
"Miss's luminous ear bell is missing." The maid was full of anxious looks.
Lin Wanyun covered her mouth and smiled sarcastically, "Let her show off, look, lose it." ”
