Chapter Eighty-Seven: Acquaintances
[Chapter 4, Volume 4]
Section 94 Chapter 87 Acquaintances
Everything is messed up.
A kiss, he stained her innocence, he should marry her. But her expression didn't mean to marry him at all. And did he want to marry her because he fell in love with her, or just because he wanted to pay for that kiss?
When it comes to marrying a wife, should he give up the throbbing in his heart and choose a woman who is capable of helping his father to go further, as his father said, or should he think more about the happiness of his life?
If he can obey his father's wishes and marry Xie Danniang as his wife, if Mengyu is willing to marry him later, perhaps, his life will be perfect.
But how could such a woman be willing to share a husband with another woman? Her "one generation and one pair for a lifetime", how can he give it.
Lan Yucheng was confused, this was the first time in his history that he felt helpless. He always faces all problems with a smile, and then easily solves everything with lightning speed in the surprised eyes of others. There were countless famous ladies following behind him, and as long as he looked up, naturally some women fainted.
He was always invincible until he met her. All his advantages, in her eyes, have also been reduced to ordinary people. He was kind to her, and she just smiled in response. He knew that she might have a crush on him, but it wasn't enough for her to become obsessed with him. The beginning of that kiss was actually very beautiful, and they both felt it. Why was she unwilling to give her heart to him?
Lan Yucheng walked out of the palace and walked around the road alone.
"Isn't this the son of the world? How could there be such a leisurely and elegant atmosphere, visiting this market alone? The person in front of him was obviously a man, but his face was as delicate as a woman. He wears a golden crown and his hair is raised in a high bun. Holding a folding fan in his hand, the fan bone turned out to be golden. is dressed in a rich manner, but there is no exaggeration. It makes this boy and girl look more graceful and luxurious.
"Isn't this the gold boss of the Sihai dry goods store?" Lan Yucheng, who was confused, naturally greeted him with a smile when he met an old acquaintance.
This Boss Jin is the owner of the store where Mengyu went last time. This man suddenly rose from Kyoto overnight, and no one knew where his home was or where he came from. Looking at his appearance of wearing gold and silver, if he is said to have a lot of money, ordinary people only know that this gold boss has a dry goods store from all over the world, and there are indeed a lot of good goods, but it is far from reaching the point where he can squander it at will. If he says that he has no money, he is bold, and the people who open his mouth to borrow money are all full of money, so there are friends all over the world. Lan Yucheng just happened to meet one day, for such a mysterious person, Lan Yucheng naturally wanted to come forward to get acquainted.
"Looking at the sad look on Shizi's face, I thought that Jin had recognized the wrong person." Jin Cong clenched his fists and arched his hands.
"It's true that there are some things that I can't figure out, since I have encountered them, why don't you accompany me to the restaurant next to me for a drink?" Shizi warmly invited.
"There's just a shortage of people who can drink and talk." Jin Cong's hand put on Shizi's shoulder and said, "It's been a long time since I've been drunk with you and Brother Li, and today, I will definitely not let you go." ”
The two sat down with Tongqinglou, the best restaurant in Kyoto, Jin Cong lifted the wine jug, filled the wine glass in front of Lan Yucheng, and said: "The one who can solve the worries must be Du Kang." Seeing the sad look on the face of the prince, it is better to drink a few more glasses. ”
Lan Yucheng picked up the wine glass with a wry smile, looked at the contents of the glass, and said helplessly: "If you can really relieve your worries after getting drunk, I will definitely accompany you every day." So saying, he took a sip of the wine in his glass and dried it.
Jin Cong once again filled the pot and asked puzzledly, "What is it that makes the prince so melancholy?" ”
Lan Yucheng shook his head and said helplessly: "What else can I do for it?" The hero is sad to pass the beauty level. As he spoke, he drank all the wine in his glass.
Jin Cong didn't care about giving Lan Yucheng a lot, and suddenly looked at Lan Yucheng and laughed: "The head of the famous four princes in Kyoto, the prince of Luo, who has countless admirers, will even worry about a woman?" Don't laugh at it, this matter is really a big joke in the world. Jin Cong smiled, and it was difficult to stop.
"Don't say that Brother Jin doesn't believe it, if Brother Jin asked me about such a thing a year ago, I would definitely not believe it. But this happened. Lan Yucheng said with a wry smile.
Jin Cong finally stopped laughing and said, "What kind of woman can make the prince so obsessed?" ”
"What?" Lan Yucheng's head appeared with a dreamy and clever smile. "I can't tell you why."
"Oh?" Jin Cong said curiously: "Isn't it a woman who is like wind, rain and fog?" ”
"Yes, maybe." Lan Yucheng lifted the wine jug to the brim.
"Which lady in Kyoto is it? I've seen a lot, but there's really nothing I can do right. Kim Cong tilted his head and thought about all the young ladies in Kyoto.
"You've seen a lot, and it's your blessing. Could it be that Brother Jin is still ready to wait for the famous ladies and ladies of Kyoto to stand in front of you and let you enjoy it all? Lan Yucheng said jokingly.
"I can't afford such a blessing. It's Brother Li, it's the real good fortune! Jin Cong smiled mysteriously.
"What's wrong with Brother Li?" Since Li Yanxu left Zhizhen Villa in a hurry that day, Lan Yucheng has not contacted him.
"There are rumors today that the marriage between Brother Li and Miss Jiang Si of the Mighty Marquis Mansion has been decided." Jin Cong looked at Lan Yucheng with some meaning.
"Settled?" Lan Yucheng frowned, Li Yanxu didn't even tell him about such a big thing. "Brother Jin, will this news be fake? He didn't even mention it to me. ”
Jin Cong shook his head and said, "It should be true, early this morning, the official media went to the Weiwu Marquis Mansion to take away Miss Jiang Si's birthday, and then went to the Li Mansion. On the two houses, red lanterns are hung high in front of the door, looking like they are going to do a happy event. When the official media left the gate of the Li Mansion, Brother Li and his father sent them out. ”
"How so? Even if Brother Li really agreed, he shouldn't be in such a hurry. "Could it be that the brotherhood between them is only that?
"I don't know why. Don't just talk about that, drink and eat. Jin Cong greeted Lan Yucheng and said.
Lan Yucheng paused, got up, hugged his fist at Jin Cong and said, "Suddenly I remembered that there was still something to do, even if I invited it." Next time, I'll have a few drinks at Brother Hunting Gold. With that, he immediately turned around and walked downstairs.
Jin Cong was stunned, and when he came back to his senses, there was no trace of Lan Yucheng. He took care of himself and said to himself, "In life, all feelings are just passing clouds." Hurry for decades, for what? Born, lived, in the red dust, I should be the most free. ”
Lan Yucheng, who left in a hurry, couldn't figure out why Li Yanxu didn't even tell him such an important thing. remembered that day in the pavilion, Li Yanxu kept saying that he liked Lin Mengyu and wanted to marry Lin Mengyu as his wife, and also said that he would give Lin Mengyu the promise of "one couple for one generation for a lifetime". Why didn't it take long for him to marry someone else?
Lan Yucheng came to the gate of the palace, he knew that after Li Yanxu was on duty today, he would come out from here.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for Li Yanxu to take off the guards' armor, change into his usual clothes, and walk out of the palace gate.
Lan Yucheng immediately stepped forward, grabbed Li Yanxu's hand, and said, "I have something to tell you, you come with me!" After speaking, he immediately pulled Li Yanxu and walked forward.
But he never expected that Li Yanxu would shake off his hand, frown and say, "If there is anything, just say it." My father is still waiting for me to go back and discuss things. ”
Lan Yucheng looked at Li Yanxu dumbfounded, the two of them had been friends for so long, when had Lan Yucheng been treated like this by Li Yanxu. "What the hell is wrong with you?"
Li Yanxu glanced at Lan Yucheng impatiently and said, "What can I have?" What the hell is going on? ”
"Nothing, you left the villa that day? Nothing, why is there news today that you have made a marriage contract with Jiang Qinghua of the Mighty Marquis Mansion? Lan Yucheng looked at Li Yanxu with a questioning expression.
