Chapter 31: The Boy in White

Shen Fu led Yao Xilin and the others to sit in the pavilion in the garden of the Wei Mansion, Bai Muguan had the heart to wander alone, and found an excuse to leave with the maid.

Bai Muguan walked in front, followed closely by Xiangyun and Bilong. Bi Long was silent, and Xiangyun, who had always been lively, muttered in a low voice: "Miss, you and Miss Yao are not talking lukewarmly, the slave maid thinks it is strange, you used to be the best." ”

Bai Muguan couldn't help but be dumbfounded, his eyebrows moved, is it really so obvious? Even Xiangyun sensed her coldness and detachment. Anyway, since you want to draw a clear line with the Marquis of Weiyuan Mansion in the future, it is better to come neatly.

The Marquis of Weiyuan wants to meet left and right between the Empress Dowager Xiao and the Son of Heaven, although it is sleek and ingenious, but if you are not careful, you will not be human on both sides. The Bai family is loyal and pure, and must no longer be mixed with the dangerous Weiyuan Marquis Mansion. She also wrote a letter earlier and sent someone to Mobei, the distance is far away, and it will not be delivered to Bai Zhanyi in a few days. Their father and daughter have one heart, and Bai Muguan believes that his father's approach will be consistent with hers.

Seeing her young lady's strange expression, Xiangyun thought that she had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly lowered her head: "The slave knows her mistakes, and she shouldn't speculate on the young lady's intentions." ”

Bai Muguan immediately smiled: "It's okay." ”

Yes, compared to Yao Xilin, who has been carefully trained since she was a child, she is used to being unrestrained, and if the two compare their minds, she may not be able to gain the upper hand.

The three masters and servants came to the Wei Mansion for the first time for a banquet, although it was less than half of the back garden of the East Palace, but they were not familiar with the road. Walking around, away from the flower hall where the guests were entertained, there was a faint sound of a tactful and unique flute in my ears.

The sound of the flute was really melodious and pleasant, which made Bai Muguan, who didn't understand the rhythm, feel excited. The girl who was tugged at the heartstrings came and decided to look for it when she heard the sound, and she had a whim to blow the flute for a while.

Bi Long saw Bai Muguan's thoughts, and persuaded him kindly: "Miss, I'm afraid it's not good to do this, after all, you are a guest of the Wei State Mansion." ”

Bai Muguan smiled faintly: "It's okay." The Duke of Wei's Mansion is noble, and he doesn't raise singers to have fun, so he thinks which lady is playing the flute. ”

Crossing the cobblestone path, Bai Muguan looked at Bilong Xiangyun thoughtfully, frowned without leaving a trace, and then ordered, "You stay here and wait for me." If you find it boring, you might as well wander around the garden. ”

The ladies of the capital always like to bring a few maids with them wherever they go, which Bai Muguan does not dare to agree with. Many times she prefers to be alone, and no one around her gets in the way, which saves a lot of trouble.

Xiangyun responded, she was familiar with Bai Muguan's personality and temper, so she didn't think so. Bi Long couldn't help frowning, and just about to persuade a few words, she looked up and found that Bai Muguan had already disappeared.

With excellent ear power, Bai Muguan found the flute before the sound of the flute stopped.

When the man was close at hand and stood like a fairy, she knew that the other party was a beautiful young man who was like an immortal.

Bai Muguan's heart was beating like a drum, I don't know if it was because he was nervous, or because he was amazed?

This is a rare beautiful man in the world.

The black hair is like a cloud, the white clothes are like smoke, and the beautiful face is lined with a white robe that is not stained with dust. His skin was transparent because it was too fair, and his narrow eyes were crystal clear. The skinny fingers kept pressing with the undulating sound of the flute.

The sound of his flute is indifferent and detached, as if he is tired of the mundane things, and it seems that he can't be isolated from the world for a long time.

At the end of the song, the young man in white raised his eyes and noticed the girl not far away, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he said gently: "Dare to ask who the girl is and why she is here?" ”

"I ......" Bai Muguan, who was in a trance, was hooked back to his thoughts by his voice, and his expression was slightly embarrassed, "I don't know that Childe is blowing the flute here, and I have no intention of disturbing it, I'm sorry for disturbing Childe's Yaxing." ”

Cunning!

She was clearly looking for it on purpose.

The young man saw through it without saying anything, his eyebrows and eyes became more and more warm as jade, and he smiled without mind: "The person who comes is a guest, where there is a nuisance, the girl doesn't have to worry too much." ”

Hearing him say this, Bai Muguan settled down and smiled: "My name is Bai Muguan, my father Bai Zhanyi." Dare to ask what Childe is called? ”

"Under Shen Yu."

At a glance, he felt that the girl in front of him was extraordinary, and it did not surprise him that she reported her home. Such a straightforward and frank temperament, and the heroic and charming posture that can't be hidden between Dai Mei's apricot eyes, is indeed different.

"It turned out to be Shen Gongzi." Bai Muguan smiled sincerely, "I heard that the talent and appearance of the young man are unparalleled in the world, and I was really not disappointed when I saw it today." The sound of your flute is very good, and I find it pleasant even though I don't know the rhythm. ”

It turned out that he was Shen Yu, the eldest grandson of the Duke of Wei.

Bai Muguan thought to himself, the young man in white in front of him was picturesque, and he knew at a glance that he was a rare young man in the world. No wonder my grandmother had tried to match them before. In fact, it was not only the old lady of Rongguo who had thought about it, but even the queen in the palace also intended to let them get married. If it weren't for the fact that she had already fallen in love with Yu Wenye, she wouldn't have refused this family affair if she saw it today.

Such a beautiful young man, even if they don't have the chance to be husband and wife, they can gossip a few words and phrases that have nothing to do with Fengyue. As everyone knows, many years later, when she looks back on today, she regrets it......

"I played this song "Phoenix Flying", and the girl praised it." Shen Yu sighed lightly, the corners of her pale lips hooked, and her face revealed her visible self-deprecation, "In the next idle person, he spends his time in the mansion chanting poems and paintings, and he has no intention of fame in this life, but it is in vain that his grandfather has carefully taught him for many years." ”

Hearing this, Bai Muguan smiled faintly: "Shen Gongzizhi is not here, but there is no need to force himself to step into the officialdom." ”

So it sounds like they're not all the way. Bai Muguan lowered her eyes and stopped looking at his face, blaming her for being too uncalm just now, and her mind was confused after being shocked by his appearance and temperament. She often lamented that she was a daughter, and she was ambitious and afraid that she would have no way to serve the country, and even if she went to the battlefield with her father, she would attract the ridicule and disdain of the world. The young man in front of her was talented but had no intention of pursuing a career, which really made her regret.

Of course, on the surface, she didn't show any more emotions: "Today, the old lady of your mansion celebrates her birthday, and I originally came to the banquet, and there are times when I wander around the garden, so I take the first step." ”

Shen Yu nodded, his smile was very kind, like a spring breeze: "The white girl doesn't need to be restrained, being a guest in the Wei Mansion is like being in her own home." ”

Bai Muguan politely agreed, turned around and left.

Looking at the disappearing shadow, Shen Yu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and smile lightly. I don't know why her eyebrows, eyes and smile can touch his heartstrings? The slender fingers subconsciously clenched the purple jade flute in their hands.

Suddenly, a voice that couldn't hide his surprise came into his ears: "Shen Yu, do you remember me?" ”

The young man didn't have time to think about it, he looked at the person wearing a cyan brocade skirt in front of him, and hurriedly bowed his hand: "I saw Princess Hemu in Xia Shen Yu." ”

"No courtesy." Yuwen Murou raised the corners of her mouth, and even her eyes were full of smiles, "I beg my father to come out of the palace to see you today, don't make a noise, don't disturb the guests." ”

Today, out of the palace, Wen Murou is dressed relatively low-key and dazzling, and the princess dress with complicated decorations is only wearing an ordinary Luo skirt, and the blue cloud brocade is embroidered with silver thread with flower and bird patterns. Her silky, jet-black hair is gently curled up with a red gold hairpin, and cloisonnΓ© earrings and ruby collars show her nobility.

The light of his eyes swept away lightly, Shen Yu was not too happy, the corners of his lips were slightly raised, Yuwen Murou thought that he was in the way of etiquette, and there was a difference between men and women. One of them is a royal princess, and the other is a famous and noble son, all of whom are people who know etiquette and understand the rules, and they dare not easily exceed the rules.

He was quite alienated again: "There is a memory from Her Royal Highness Princess Lao, and Shen is very grateful." ”

Yuwen Murou frowned slightly, and said half-jokingly: "If you are polite everywhere because of my status as a princess, I will tell my father tomorrow that I should not be a princess." ”

"It's better for the princess not to talk nonsense about such jokes."

Although he and Yuwen Murou only have a few faces, but as smart as him, how can he not see through her mind? She admired him and didn't hide it too much, but he didn't have a male or female affection for her. Moreover, Shen Yu knew that the Son of Heaven did not care about him as a colt. Others may not know, but it is impossible for the emperor who knows everything not to know Yuwen Murou's thoughts, both of them are now of marriageable age, and there is no rumor in the palace, which can only show that the Son of Heaven does not let him still have the idea of being the master. Qinggao is as indifferent as Shen Yu, and he will definitely not give birth to the idea of climbing the dragon and attaching the phoenix.

"Can you give a?" Yuwen Murou's eyes rolled, and her eyes stayed on the purple jade flute he was holding in his hand.

Shen Yu said humbly: "A little bit of understanding." ”

"Princess Ben loves too! If you're not surprised, why don't you give it to me? Yuwen Murou raised her voice and stared intently at the good-looking white-clothed young man in front of her.

"If the princess doesn't dislike it, please take care of herself." As soon as he finished speaking, she had already snatched the jade flute, and couldn't wait to put it to her mouth and blow it.

At this moment, Yuwen Murou has no usual rebelliousness and coldness, only full of joy and tenderness.

Shen Yu saw it in his eyes, his eyes flashed, and he was faintly helpless.

Everyone knows that the Son of Heaven loves and admires the princess the most, if he can't entangle her in the future, he will marry her...... Then I am afraid that he will be destined to stay in the capital in this life, and gradually drift away from the life he desires.

Fiddling with the jade flute alone for a while, Yuwen Murou saw that he was not interested, and couldn't help but lose the interest just now, and returned the jade flute to him with a smile.

At this point, the two looked at each other without saying a word.

"Princess Ben has been here for so long, aren't you going to invite me to sit in the study for a while?" Although the young man in front of her was her sweetheart, Yuwen Murou was still secretly annoyed at this moment. She asked herself to be a rare beauty, and she was the pearl of the emperor's palm, usually she didn't even put the queen in her eyes, and today she deigned to come to the Wei Mansion and couldn't be neglected by him for too long.

"Princess Jin Zhiyuye, blame me for being inconsiderate and negligent. Princess, please. As he spoke, the boy made a gesture of please.

Yuwen Murou snorted contentedly, and her heart was full of joy.
