Chapter 339: Choosing a son-in-law
Turning the pages of the book with residual warmth, Yan Yuxin bent her eyebrows, and her heart was overjoyed.
She waited here on purpose.
Although there are fewer words spoken today than yesterday, the person who gave her the book with his own hands today is still a slight improvement.
Maybe if she works harder, the two of them will be able to read a book together tomorrow.
β¦β¦
Lunch, Yan Yiheng is still used in the palace.
When he learned that Yan Yuxin had met Qi Changrong in the Library Pavilion again, his brows suddenly wrinkled slightly, and he said, "Seventh sister, if you are noisy, it is best to stagger the time these days, Brother Qi will only occupy the Library Pavilion for one or two hours every morning." β
This means that except for the two hours in the morning, the rest of the time is as she pleases.
Yan Yuxin pursed her lips, opened her eyes and said nonsense: "That's not possible, I only have time in the morning every day, if you want me to go in the afternoon, I won't go yet!" β
"What's more, that library pavilion belongs to the Yan Imperial Palace, why do you want me to avoid outsiders?"
"......" Yan Yiheng paused slightly: "That's okay, I'll let Brother Qi come back in the afternoon tomorrow." β
If the mountain does not go, people will go to the mountain.
They can't be left alone in the library pavilion, and when it gets out, even if no one dares to chew the root of their tongue, their reputation is not good.
After hearing this, the spoon in Yan Yuxin's hand suddenly fell into the soup bowl.
Only heard a crisp sound, she stood up suddenly, and said angrily to Yan Yiheng with a loud voice: "I hate the third brother the most!" β
After that, she hid her face and left, as if she had been wronged.
ββ¦β¦β
Looking at Yan Yuxin, who was brushing his sleeves away, Yan Yiheng looked dazed.
What did he do wrong to hate him the most?
After thinking for a while, Yan Yiheng, who couldn't think of a reason, had to look at the silent Yan Huang as if asking for help: "Father, what's wrong with the seventh sister?" β
No one answered him.
Emperor Yan didn't speak, and the rest of the people didn't dare to mention Yan Yiheng, who had a tendon.
Even if he looked around in confusion, he couldn't get a definite answer.
The huge golden hall fell into silence.
Seeing that no one took care of him, Yan Yiheng retracted his gaze in confusion, and An An ate his own food separately.
However, the doubts in his heart were still unsolved, and he only felt that the food in his mouth was as difficult to eat as chewing wax.
I don't know how long it took, but the sound of rinsing my mouth came from the water.
Emperor Yan put down the jade chopstick, and the person next to him hurriedly handed over something with interest.
While wiping his mouth with a silk handkerchief, the old god was calling, "The third child." β
Hearing this, Yan Yiheng instantly straightened his back: "Erchen is here." β
Emperor Yan stared at him for a while.
Just when Yan Yiheng was numb by him, Emperor Yan pointed out.
"The marriage of bad people is to be thundered by the sky."
Suddenly, a low snickering sound came from the surroundings, and Yan Yiheng looked at the voice, it was the chief eunuch who was serving Emperor Yan closely.
After a while, he scratched his head, but still didn't react: "What does my father mean by this?" Erchen didn't understand. β
He really doesn't understand.
After all, when did he ever meddle in the marriage of the seventh sister?
He just didn't want her to meet her brother Qi more often in the library pavilion.
After all, they are all noble, and staying in one place for a long time will inevitably give rise to gossip, which will ruin the reputation of the two.
Thinking of this, Yan Yiheng slowly understood something.
His eyes widened slowly, and he looked at Emperor Yan in astonishment speechless.
Library ......
Yan Yuxin......
Qi Changrong ......
His seventh sister, is this looking down on Brother Qi?!
Yan Yiheng subconsciously felt that this matter was inappropriate, and hurriedly said seriously: "Father, the seventh sister and brother Qi, they are not suitable. β
One is so naΓ―ve that he doesn't know the world, and the other has a heart so deep that it makes the scalp tingle.
He couldn't imagine what would happen to the two of them if they were put together.
When he said this, Yan Yiheng obviously forgot that when did the dignitary's family get together because it was suitable?
Even his own existence is not because of anything.
There are some things called accidents.
Hearing this, Emperor Yan only smiled faintly, looking like a kind old man, but what he said did not allow anyone to refuse to refute.
"The third child, don't meddle in the affairs of Xiao Qi and the prince of the Jin Kingdom."
"Father......" Yan Yiheng called anxiously.
How could he not meddle in this?
One is his own sister, and the other is the brother he just identified, who suffers, he feels uncomfortable.
Emperor Yan ignored Yan Yiheng's impatience, and instructed the chief eunuch beside him: "Go and pack up the side hall for the third prince to live in, and send a message to the Lanxin Mansion, and the third prince will stay in the palace tonight." β
Yan Yiheng: "......"
He didn't want to, but he couldn't say.
The purpose of his visit this time was to please his father, and it was not easy for his father to look at him differently outside the court, if he failed at this time because of a trivial matter......
Then he is too much of a failure.
After thinking about it, Yan Yiheng did not refuse, got up and arched his hand: "Yes, Father Xie is compassionate." β
After all, Brother Qi is such a smart person, he will always see the careful thinking of the seventh sister.
If she didn't want to, there must be a way to deal with it, so why did he have to intervene?
Thinking of this, Yan Yiheng calmed down.
On the second day when Emperor Yan did not hesitate to detain Yan Yiheng so that he could not make trouble, Qi Changrong met Yan Yuxin, the seventh princess of Yan Kingdom, in the Library Pavilion.
This time, Yan Yuxin did not choose to look at her from afar, but boldly stepped forward, stood not far from Qi Changrong, smiled and saluted:
"His Royal Highness the Prince Changrong."
Hearing this, Qi Changrong took a step back quietly and returned the salute.
"Seven Princesses."
Her voice is extremely warm, and it gently stays in people's hearts, making people have endless aftertastes.
Seeing that she was acting like this, and did not show a sense of alienation and strangeness, Yan Yuxin suppressed the shyness in her heart and asked casually: "It's been three days, hasn't His Royal Highness Prince Changrong finished reading this book yet?" β
"Let the Seventh Princess smile, but I've finished reading this book." Just now.
Originally, she could read this book in just one morning, but two or three times were interrupted by the person in front of her, and she had to delay it until the third day.
However, Qi Changrong didn't say this directly, she calmly looked at the girl with joy in her eyes, and her heart was indifferent.
The girl's mind is always very obvious.
They think they are very well hidden, and they will not be discovered by anyone, but in the eyes of the discerning person, that little bit of caution is like a pool of clear water, and you can see the bottom at a glance.
Seeing that Qi Changrong was not disgusted by his approach, Yan Yuxin's jade finger hidden in his long sleeves hooked it, and said naturally: "I have seen most of it here, but I don't understand the truth in it, I wonder if His Royal Highness Prince Changrong can give me some guidance?" β
Qi Changrong shook his head.
Beauty is beauty, but unfortunately, now she has neither intention nor intention.
Seeing this, Yan Yuxin was stunned, obviously not expecting to be rejected mercilessly.
Qi Changrong said slowly: "This book is just an idle book used to pass the time, and it doesn't matter if you can understand the truth or not. β
"If the Seventh Princess is just to be funny and relieve her boredom, Lone thinks that those travelogues written all over the world are more suitable."
Her speech was slow, her voice was clear, her face was more serene and peaceful, and her words could clearly fall into Yan Yuxin's ears without making people feel frightened.
As he spoke, his cold gaze circled around the second floor of the Library Pavilion.
She knew very well that in this library room, there should be a lot of travelogues about mountains and rivers.
Those things are suitable for the boudoir girl who is content with the status quo to read.
After finishing speaking, Qi Changrong's eyes fell back on Yan Yuxin, who had obviously not fully recovered his senses, and said detached without being rude: "If the seventh princess has nothing important, Lone will take the first step." β
With that, she had lifted her feet and left.
Seeing the person turn around, Yan Yuxin, who was immersed in her own thoughts, came back to her senses.
Almost without thinking about it, she subconsciously opened her mouth to summon the person in her eyes.
However, when the words came to her mouth, she seemed to be choked by someone, and she couldn't say a word, she could only watch her disappear from her sight, and beat her chest with regret, and felt inexplicably uncomfortable in her heart.
As a little princess who is favored by the royal family, not only Emperor Yan loves her, but even the brothers above will let her.
She was never rejected by anyone.
Today, I finally experienced what it feels like to be rejected.
distressed and helpless.
Three full days have passed, and Qi Changrong still visits the library at a fixed hour every day.
It's just that after this day, Yan Yuxin never appeared again.
It should be that her words were too decisive before, which made Her Royal Highness the princess who was raised in the deep palace lose patience and interest.
Qi Changrong breathed a long sigh of relief.
She is still very deep in the city, but this time, she will not take advantage of a little girl who is not deeply involved in the world.
After another two days, when eating, looking at Yan Yuxin, who was sitting opposite and obviously had something on his mind and was absent-minded, Emperor Yan asked casually: "In the past two days, why hasn't Xiao Qi gone to the library again?" β
Hearing this, Yan Yiheng also looked up at her.
He had been trapped in the palace for three whole days.
There is nothing else to do except accompany Emperor Yan and say something pleasing to him.
Although the effect is remarkable, it is okay for a day or two, but the time is too long, and he feels that life is boring.
Hearing this, Yan Yuxin poked the rice grains in the bowl and said in a low voice: "Since people don't look down on me, why should I send it without interest?" β
That's too cheap.
As a royal princess, she has her own pride.
"Can't look down on you?"
Emperor Yan's expression paused slightly, and the light smile on his face gradually disappeared.
Compared to Emperor Yan's anger, on the other hand, Yan Yiheng, who didn't think that they were a possible 'prophet' all the time, really reacted like this.
Of course, he was also a little surprised, after all, his royal sister is notoriously stubborn, and she has been spoiled for a long time, why did she give up so easily this time?
Yan Yiheng pointed out: "Since people have no intention of you, it's good that you don't continue to make up in front of her." β
Seeing that Yan Yuxin seemed to have been hit hard, he said as if he was appeased: "Don't worry, as a royal princess, what kind of husband can't you find?" She doesn't look down on you, it's her who suffers. β
