Chapter 20: The Son
In the shadow next to the rockery, a person walked out. He was dressed in dark red silk and had a jade pendant hanging on the left and right sides of the silver silk jacquard belt. This person is none other than Lan Yucheng, the son of Prince Luo mentioned by Mengyu just now.
Mengyu was about to ask who the villain was, but he eavesdropped here, and found that he was the son of Prince Luo who came out, and he was the only one, and he didn't even bring a retinue.
"Wu Qianrou greets Prince Luo's son." As soon as Wu Qianrou saw that the person who came was the prince of Luo, she immediately blushed. Until Qianrou spoke, Mengyu seemed to have just woken up, and she also bowed her head and said to Prince Luo's son: "Lin Mengyu asks Prince Luo's son." ”
"Get up." Lan Yucheng was surprised to meet her here. He knew that his mother was holding a flower banquet at home today, and the ladies of all the mansions would be invited, and she was also one of them. Every time there is such a banquet, he will hide out, after all, the family is full of female dependents, and if one accidentally meets, it may be an indescribable trouble. Only today, he didn't have the idea of going out at all, just lying on a rockery in a corner of the garden, basking in the sun. He may be secretly looking forward to it, wondering if he will have the opportunity to meet the woman who was completely different from the other young ladies that day. It's just that the woman in front of him gave him a different feeling again this time. On that day in Shuiming Temple, the women by the waterhole were dressed in plain brocade clothes, laughing and frolicking without any worries. At that time, she was like a fairy who fell into the mortal world by chance, plain. And today, she is wearing a smoky bandeau that makes her thin body look plump, and the special peach blossom makeup between her eyebrows is embellished with a lilac muslin dress outside, faintly exuding a mysterious taste, and a little bit of charm.
"Why, Miss Lin doesn't know anything about the four princes of Kyoto?" Lan Yucheng had a very kind smile on his face, as if his appearance was just to dispel his confusion, and he didn't mean to be an abrupt beauty at all.
"Mengyu has been frail and sickly since he was a child, and he has never been out of the Lin Mansion, so naturally he knows very little about the outside world." Mengyu was humble and obediently bowed her head and replied.
"The so-called four princes of Kyoto are just random rankings in the market, and they can't be counted." Lan Yucheng said this, but in his words, there was a strong sense of pride.
Wu Qianrou, who seemed to be docile, became excited at this time: "Why can't you count?" The prince is the first of the four princes of Kyoto, and he deserves his name. Wu Qianrou looked at Prince Luo with a look of adoration, in her eyes, Prince Luo was already a figure who could only bow down and worship. I'm afraid that the one in the palace is not as good as his status in her heart.
Mengyu looked at Wu Qianrou with an excited face, and once again realized that the star-chasing family is the ubiquitous truth. Mengyu was thinking about whether to leave with Wu Qianrou first, after all, in this society, there are differences between men and women, and they are seen, but they are afraid that they will not be able to say clearly. Mengyu is trying to adapt to the atmosphere of this society, but Wu Qianrou, who lives in ancient times, has no intention of avoiding suspicion at all, and only listens to her and says: "The other three sons, how can you be a little bit like you." Li Gongzi of Shangshu Mansion, although he was young and had already walked in front of the saint, was just a martial idiot who only knew how to practice martial arts and did not understand the amorous feelings. Mengyu heard Wu Qianrou's evaluation of Li Yanxu like this, and she really wanted to applaud immediately, that person is still a martial idiot? Straight and shameless. I heard Wu Qianrou continue: "Xie Gongzi, a university scholar, is pretentious, always has an invincible attitude when dealing with people, and he doesn't know what modesty is. After a pause, Xu was a little nervous in front of the people he admired, Wu Qianrou swallowed her saliva and said: "The other one, Jiang Gongzi of the Mighty Marquis Mansion, although he looks like Pan An, he has never smiled. Where is there a prince so handsome, and it still gives people a feeling of warmth and jade. "It seems that her sister Wu is a loyal fan of Prince Luo's son!
Lan Yucheng looked at the young lady in front of him who made a long speech, and the more he listened, the more he felt that this woman was really cute, and he really wanted to praise her. But on the face, he always maintained a faint smile, not arrogant or impatient. And Mengyu had an incredible expression, she really wondered if this Sister Wu in front of her had just been possessed, this was not like her behavior at all.
"Miss Wu is too complimentary, I really dare not take it seriously." Lan Yucheng's humble attitude is indeed inconsistent with the identity of Prince Ta Luo's son, even if he is a little taller, it is guaranteed that many girls will not escape his palm. Hearing Wu Qianrou say this, Mengyu really felt that the prince of Luo in front of him was a good man who was about to become extinct.
"That sunset water, I wonder if Miss Lin's body is healed?" Lan Yucheng asked with a concerned face.
Mengyu felt that this prince of Luo might really be a good man. On that day, the Shuiming Temple fell into the water, and it was he, desperate, who was the first to fly into the pool and rescue her who didn't know her at all; Wu Qianrou, who is timid and afraid today, praised him so bluntly, and his performance was quite modest. As for why he was with the bastard Li Yanxu, well, maybe God was afraid that he would save Li Yanxu. Eun, that's what happened. Suddenly, Mengyu's favor for Lan Yucheng rose to a certain level.
"Thank you Shizi for your concern, Mengyu's body is fine." As he spoke, Mengyu seriously blessed his body.
"That, Shizi......" Wu Qianrou said in a hesitant voice.
"Is there anything wrong with Miss Du?" Lan Yucheng is very depressed now, he rarely has some interest in a woman, why is there such a big and eye-catching person next to him? Why interrupt their conversation for no reason? Obviously, Lan Yucheng had completely forgotten that this eye-catching guy had praised him fiercely just now. Of course, all this is just Lan Yucheng's inner melancholy.
"Can the prince give me a painting or a letter?" Wu Qianrou looked pitiful, in Mengyu's eyes, she was like a dog watching her master eat meat, too cute.
When Lan Yucheng heard this, he said with an embarrassed face: "I am not good at calligraphy and painting, and if I only give it to Miss Wu, I am afraid it will hinder Miss Wu's reputation." After a pause, Lan Yucheng seemed to have thought of a way, and continued: "If Miss Wu really appreciates the calligraphy and paintings below, why don't I draw a portrait of the two young ladies and give it to Miss Wu?" Lan Yucheng couldn't help but whisper: What! You dare to ask for my real handiwork, do you know how many girls from good families are lining up outside to want it? Do you know how expensive it is? It's hard to find money, do you want it when you open your mouth? However, since you have opened your mouth, I will reluctantly draw one.
"Really?" Wu Qianrou said with a look of surprise, and then said vigorously, "I am willing, I am willing!" After saying it a few times, I remembered to turn around, pull Mengyu's sleeve, and said, "Sister Mengyu agreed." As she spoke, she shook Mengyu's arm vigorously, as if she didn't stop if she didn't answer her.
Mengyu looked at such a lovely Sister Wu, she couldn't bear to hurt her heart, and nodded reluctantly, but she still said to Lan Yucheng uneasily: "Remember to paint seriously, it doesn't matter if the level is not good, don't paint too ugly." Lan Yucheng's head was suddenly covered with black lines, and he was afraid that the gentle smile on his face would not be able to hang up. It was Wu Qianrou who had full confidence in Lan Yucheng, and comforted Mengyu: "Sister, don't worry, the calligraphy and paintings of the prince are very expensive outside." Mengyu was full of disbelief, she felt that it was probably because there were too many girls like Wu Qianrou that they would have such a high value.
Lan Yucheng was really afraid that Dream Yu would say something amazing, so he couldn't help but break his skills, so he said: "Then please go to the small study house in the bamboo forest not far away, and the paper, ink, pen and inkstone in it are always available." Wu Qianrou seemed to absolutely believe in Prince Luo's son, and followed him happily with Mengyu.
