Chapter 13: Frost Falls
Qingluan snorted, "Do you really think that others don't know about those things?" ”
Xiao Boyan raised his eyebrows, "Boyan doesn't understand, please make it clear to the county lord." ”
"I don't have that idleness!" Qingluan walked past him, the corners of her skirt fluttering, and the tulle shawl was blown by the wind and floated to Xiao Boyan's cheeks.
Xiao Boyan's fingers tightened in his sleeves, his eyes looked at the stumbling figure, and his brows frowned slightly.
Jianing, who used to stick to him like a puppy, suddenly disdained him, which made him suddenly feel a little uncomfortable, and there was an indescribable sense of strangeness in his heart, as well as frustration for no reason, which caused Xiao Boyan to want to find out.
Yuzhu and Ziyu hurriedly saluted Xiao Boyan, and followed the county lord into the Xiao Mansion Garden.
"County Lord, are you strange? Shaw...... Marquis Xiao didn't take you to the inner courtyard to pay homage to the county lord of Anping, but let you come directly to the back garden......" Yuzhu wondered.
Qingluan smiled: "What's strange, it's not because the county lord of Anping doesn't want to see me, I'm afraid that his mother won't even have a happy birthday when she sees me." ”
I didn't understand a lot of things in my previous life, but now I think about it and straighten it out, it turns out that the county lord of Anping is disgusted with himself to the point where he can't look at it directly.
Ziyu was surprised: "Then why did Marquis Xiao invite you to the mansion?" ”
Qingluan snorted coldly.
Of course, Xiao Boyan was jealous of the military power in his father's hands, and he didn't want to fall out with himself for the time being.
In his previous life, the birthday of the county lord of Anping was not even invited to his mother, Princess Fule. I don't know what went wrong in this life, Xiao Boyan not only returned to Beijing ahead of schedule, but he actually sent a post to the eldest princess's mansion in person.
The garden of the Xiaoyao Mansion is huge, there are not only nine curved corridors, pavilions and pavilions, but also a natural spring pool with quiet water.
Two large elaborate pergolas are built around the spring pool, and many noble ladies are sitting around the pergola drinking tea and enjoying the coolness.
When the nobles saw the county lord of Jianing coming, some got up and saluted the county lord, while others pretended not to see it.
Xiao Yan sat upright, and when he saw Jianing coming, he didn't raise his eyelids, and several noble ladies sitting next to him peeked at Xiao Yan's complexion, so they also did what they liked, and didn't go to meet the lord of Jianing County.
Qingluan didn't care, she only talked and chatted with the few noble girls who took the initiative to show her goodwill, and didn't bother Xiao Yan.
In her previous life, because she loved Xiao Boyan, she tried her best to please his family, especially this Miss Xiao Yan.
As long as the emperor's uncle rewarded something good, she would give her and her mother the county lord of Anping, and later Xiao Yan got married, and she even made up twelve rare jewels to add makeup to her.
The result? She actually worked with her mother to orchestrate herself, and even framed Ziyu, the girl next to her, for stealing her things, causing Ziyu to commit suicide in shame.
At that time, she couldn't stop it, and she was heartbroken, so she waited for an opportunity to send Yuzhu out of the Xiao Mansion and let her return to the Eldest Princess's Mansion.
She also wanted to go back to her parents' home, but was stopped by Xiao Boyan for various reasons.
Thinking of this, Qingluan took a deep breath, glanced at Ziyu, and secretly swore in her heart: In this life, whoever dares to touch the fingers of the people around her, she doesn't mind chopping off their claws.
"Some people are born without rules, and they come to the Lord's house to pay their respects, but they don't even visit the master."
I hadn't seen the county lord of Jianing come over to greet him, and Xiao Yan couldn't help but sneer.
Qingluan raised her eyebrows and looked at her, shook the silk landscape folding fan, and said with a smile: "It's not strange that there is such a thing in the Xiao Mansion, I think I'm a county lord of the emperor himself, sitting here for a long time, and I haven't seen a few people come to meet it, what I know is that some people are uneducated and don't know the etiquette, I don't know, I think I am despising the emperor's Tianwei." ”
The title of the county lord of Jianing is half a level higher than that of the second-grade county lord of Anping, and it stands to reason that there is nothing wrong with her not going to meet the county lord of Anping.
In the past, he looked at Xiao Boyan's face, never put on the shelf of the county lord, and treated Xiao Yan as his sister, and took the initiative to show favor to her.
Now that she is tired of Xiao Boyan, she treats his family as if she were a covert, and wants her to be a dignified county lord and meet a woman who has no title, which is ridiculous.
"Wei Qingluan! What are you! It is also worthy of the Xiao family to meet you! Xiao Yan became angry, raised his hand and shouted at Qingluan.
Qingluan glanced at Xiao Yan, shook the folding fan and said, "Palm!" ”
I really don't understand how blind and blind I used to be, and I actually like the son of such a family, and look at the behavior of his mother and sister, you can know what kind of character he is.
Ziyu and Yuzhu stepped forward together, opened their bows left and right, and slapped Xiao Yan twice.
Everyone around was stunned, and even Xiao Yan was shocked by the sudden change.
"Slut! I'm fighting with you! Xiao Yan was so embarrassed that she rushed straight towards Qingluan, her arms fluttering wildly and grabbing her.
Qingluan stood up, motioned for Yuzhu Ziyu to dodge, raised his foot and kicked at the woman who pounced in front of him, kicking her several meters away, and falling to the ground.
Seeing that Xiao Yan's hair and dress were all messy, like a crumpled ball of cloth, the bead hairpin ring fell to the ground.
Qingluan has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and his strength is much greater than that of these weak and delicate young ladies, Xiao Yan is like this, and his waist and abdomen are bruised.
"Wow......" Xiao Yan cried, sitting on the ground like a child and howling: "Someone! Come! Beat her to death! ”
However, several of her girls didn't know what to do, and of course they didn't dare to take the initiative against Jianing County, so they hurriedly ran to tell them.
"Alas, Yuzhu, it seems that this banquet can't be eaten, so let's go home." Qingluan smiled and shook the folding fan and walked outside. Since Xiao Boyan refused to repent of his marriage, he let his mother and his sister push him.
Yuzhu and Ziyu hurried to follow.
The nobles in the garden were in a mess, some were busy coaxing Xiao Yan, and some had already rushed to the inner courtyard.
As soon as Qingluan walked to a corner, he saw two people hurrying in front of him, one in front of him and one behind, walking hurriedly.
The one in front is Xiao Boyan, and the one in the back, coincidentally, is the peerless Miss Fang Qingru.
Qingluan's eyes lit up, and he shouted: "Xiao Boyan, Miss Fang, it's really - what a coincidence!" ”
Xiao Boyan was stunned, glanced back at Fang Qingru, and then said to Qingluan with a straight face: "I just heard what the girl said......"
Qingluan directly interrupted his words, and said slowly: "Miss Xiao Yan is speechless, dare to insult the county lord of Qinfeng, and threaten to kill me, all the ladies of the family present have heard and seen it, Jianing is not talented, so I have to order someone to teach Miss Xiaoyao Houfu the rules." ”
Xiao Boyan lowered his face and looked at Qingluan coldly, "Jianing, I guess you misunderstood, Yan'er would never do such a misdemeanor." ”
Qingluan looked at Xiao Boyan with a gloomy face, "Oh? Xiaoyao Hou was not present, so he believed in his own family, thinking that I was a dignified county lord lying and arranging your good sister? ”
Fang Qingru said softly on the side: "County Lord, Yan'er has a soft temperament, how can she insult the County Lord, it must be ......"
"What are you! I'm talking to Xiaoyaohou, and you have to interject! Qingluan's face was cold, and she glanced at Fang Qingru sarcastically.
"You...... You ......" Fang Qingru's face turned red, and then turned pale. I have never been humiliated like this, but it is in front of him again.
At this time, Fang Qingru just wanted to find a crack in the ground to get into, and while she was ashamed, she couldn't help but distort her beautiful little face for an instant.
"Jianing! What the hell are you going to do! Xiao Boyan shouted, his eyes were as sharp as in his previous life, and he looked at Qingluan with coldness.
"What do you think I'm going to do?" Qingluan laughed sarcastically: "I was bullied by all of you if I didn't do anything, Xiao Boyan, do you really think I am a dead man?" Or do you see the royal family surnamed Li as dead? ”
Xiao Boyan's eyes were as deep as ink, and Qingluan only felt that a trace of killing intent flashed across his face.
Is this murderous to her?
Xiao Boyan, the power in your hands is not yet complete, but I will see how you can deal with me.
