Chapter 83: The Chrysanthemum Feast (4)

The eldest grandson Yun went straight to the reception courtyard of the palace, and after entering the house, he put Xia Mengning on the bed.

"I'm a dignified son of the world, and I claim to be smart, but I didn't see that you were pretending." The eldest grandson Yun put Xia Mengning on the bed, and after walking away two steps, he hugged his arms and looked at the person on the bed with a smile.

Xia Mengning, who was named, opened her eyes in time, and saw that although the eldest Sun Yun was saying blame words, she had a doting smile on her face, and couldn't help but relax her heart, got up and sat upright, and looked at the person in front of her very sincerely: "I really contracted the wind and cold......

Changsun Yun stretched out his fingers, quickly put them on her wrist, closed his eyes for a while, and said, "The pulse is vague, although there is inflammation, it will not be unstable." ”

Xia Mengning withdrew her hand, blinked her eyes and said, "Then why don't you demolish me?" ”

Eldest Sun Yun sighed, walked to the side of the bed and leaned over slightly, Xia Mengning blushed a little, and unnaturally stepped back a little, the autumn breeze was soft, bringing the breath of the person in front of him to the tip of his nose, Eldest Sun Yun's face was like a fairy in front of him, Xia Mengning suddenly felt as if he was back in that moonlit night, and it was his handsome and unparalleled smile in front of him.

"You blush......" The eldest grandson Yun stepped forward, holding the hollow decoration next to the bed with his right hand, and holding Xia Mengning's body with his left hand that was constantly retreating but almost out of balance, the distance between the two became very close, Xia Mengning struggled unnaturally, trying to bring her sanity back, "You haven't answered me yet!" ”

Eldest Sun Yun held her body with both hands, took a step back, and smiled: "Because I don't want you to face them alone." ”

This simple answer made Xia Mengning a little stunned, how long has it been, she has chosen to rely on herself in everything, to face the wind and waves alone, even her aunt has never said that she will accompany her, and now, this man will look at himself with such a slightly distressed look, telling himself that he does not want to be alone.

"You...... In fact......" Xia Mengning opened her mouth and stammered, this state really made her very uncomfortable, why could she have a thousand words but couldn't say it, but she felt very warm in her heart, so warm that she wanted to laugh out loud, so warm that she wanted to cry happily.

Changsun Yun stretched out his fingers and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said softly: "No matter what happens in the future, I won't leave you alone." ”

Whether this is an oath or a promise, Xia Mengning doesn't know or know, but she quietly said to herself in her heart, only this time, let go of her heart, accept the current life, and live well.

Although there was no big problem, the eldest grandson Yun still asked the girl to decoct the medicine for Xia Mengning to drink, and it was not until the luncheon began that Xia Mengning pretended to be a lot better and went to the front hall with Jiu'er.

When she came to the front hall, a girl led her to the seat, and as soon as she sat down, Xia Mengning saw that it was Xia Mengran sitting on the left, and when she saw Xia Mengning coming, Xia Mengran had to pretend to be concerned and ask a few words.

"The play that the fifth sister wants to watch, but my sister can't let my sister get her wish, my sister must feel uncomfortable, right?" Xia Mengning pretended to sort out Xia Mengran's clothes, leaned over, and whispered in Xia Mengran's ear.

Xia Mengran's face suddenly became embarrassed, thinking that it could lead Xia Mengning to contradict the county lord Ziran, but he didn't expect to be relieved by the prince of the world, and there was such a big limelight, Xia Mengran regretted that he didn't do it at the beginning, and now when he heard Xia Mengning say this, it was not good to say anything more, so he could only force his face and laugh: "What did my sister say, my sister was terrified." ”

Xia Mengning covered the corners of her lips with a silk handkerchief, glanced at Xia Mengran with deep meaning, then turned around and stopped talking.

The place where the Dingxi Mansion set up a luncheon is a hall, and the middle is vacant for the convenience of the girl to serve the food, and the guests are sitting on both sides in order, Xia Mengning turned around, only to see that the top of his right side is Yu Ziran, seeing that he also looked over, Yu Ziran bent his lips and smiled, Xia Mengning saw that there were too many reckless ingredients in this smile, and he ignored it, and returned with a bright smile.

Xia Chuanyuan sat on the seat on the other side and handed Xia Mengning a concerned look, and when the latter saw it, he also gave a reassuring look.

"Ning'er?" At this moment, Xia Mengning heard a shout, turned her head and saw that it was Liu Shihan, whom she hadn't seen for many days.

"It's really you!" Liu Shihan sat down on Xia Mengning's right hand, eagerly took Xia Mengning's hand and said, "I just heard them talk about the young lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion in the backyard, but I didn't expect it to be you, we haven't seen each other for a long time." ”

Xia Mengning looked at Liu Shihan's sincere eyes, knowing that she really regarded herself as a friend, and her heart was a little moved, it was rare that she was born in a family but did not have the character of ordinary people, so she also smiled: "I blew the wind last night, and I felt a little headache today, so I went to the reception courtyard in the front yard to rest for a while." ”

Liu Shihan heard this and hurriedly asked, "It doesn't matter, right?" ”

Xia Mengning shook her head, Liu Shihan smiled again, patted her hand and said, "Last time, I said that I would be invited to play in the next post, but I didn't have a letter when I waited left and right, and I thought you forgot me?" ”

Xia Mengning smiled: "There have been too many things in the house recently, and I really can't take care of it." ”

Liu Shihan shook his head, "I don't blame you, by the way, I heard that your mother-in-law smoked the spices banned by the emperor and was sent to the nunnery?" ”

Xia Mengning nodded, but Liu Shihan said: "That's fine, she always bullies you in the province." ”

While the two were talking, King Dingxi walked up with Zheng Hanxiu and Meng Xianya, and after the three of them sat down, the eldest grandson waved his hand: "Let's start the table." ”

The girls calmly served plates of delicacies without a sound, which showed that the palace was well-trained for the subordinates.

"Lord Wang, I heard that one of the young ladies in the guests was unwell just now, I don't know what happened now?" While the banquet was going on, Meng Xianya spoke.

The eldest grandson raised his eyebrows, and Zheng Hanxiu, who was beside him, said softly: "Lord Wang, it is the third lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and I have already seen the doctor." ”

As soon as she finished saying this, Xia Mengning couldn't say anything, so she had to stand up from the seat and walk to the central blessing body: "Little girl, thank you for your care, thank you princess, the prince cares." ”

The eldest grandson looked at Xia Mengning who was standing at the bottom, and his heart froze, so he quickly concealed his emotions and said, "It's okay if it's okay, let's go back to the table." ”

The eldest grandson Mo, who had been silent, said: "I heard that it was the doctor called by the prince himself, and the prince is really a bodhisattva." ”

Some of the people know the situation, and some don't know, now when they hear Changsun Mo say this, everyone's eyes fall on Changsun Yun, a young lady who is a concubine, and a son who has not married a wife, these two people, there will be nothing to do with each other, right?

Xia Mengning returned to his seat, and heard the eldest grandson Yun smile and said: "My fair lady, the gentleman is good, the heart of King Mojun is very wide, and he always likes to meddle in other people's affairs." ”

The eldest grandson frowned, as if he was very dissatisfied with his son's answer, for a while, everyone at the table was uncertain, Meng Xianya had a gloating expression, and Yu Ziran had an embarrassed expression.

Eldest Sun Yun's words almost stated his position, Xia Mengning listened, bit his lip slightly, and remained silent.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little embarrassing, Zheng Hanxiu hurriedly smiled and said: "Lord Wang, we have had archery competitions at this banquet in previous years, and this year's Caitou concubines are ready, why not start now?" ”

The eldest grandson listened, took over the topic, and smiled: "Okay, take the lottery." ”

A girl came up with a tray, Zheng Hanxiu smiled, walked down and uncovered the red cloth covering it, and a string of vermilion coral agate bracelets were placed on the tray, and as soon as it was revealed, it attracted the attention of the people present.

Seeing that the things he prepared were so eye-catching, Zheng Hanxiu was also a little proud, and said with a smile: "This coral bracelet is obtained from the Jiangnan area, there is a legend, this coral bracelet is the East China Sea Dragon King to his wife's love object, although the legend can not be fully believed, but today also borrowed a good meaning, okay, if you want to try it, let's start." ”

The eldest grandson Xinyue's eyes lit up, and she said to the eldest grandson Ye: "Brother Prince, that bracelet is so beautiful, why don't you go and shoot arrows, and give it to me if you win." ”

Hearing this, Changsun Ye and Changsun Xinyue were both born to the queen, and the relationship between the first mother and the compatriots was very good, after hearing this, Changsun Ye smiled and said: "It's okay, Xinyue likes it, and the prince's brother will give it a try, but there are many capable people at the table today, if you can't win, you can't blame the prince's brother." ”

The eldest grandson Xinyue nodded happily, Yu Ziran beside her was not guided by the atmosphere of the scene at all, her pretty face was faint, and she was still stuck in what happened just now and couldn't get out.

Soon, several eager princes and grandsons all stepped forward, the arrow target was in front of the big tree in front of the hall, the distance of archery across the hall was 50 meters, each person fired three arrows in a row, and the one who hit the bull's-eye won.

Seeing that the prince also came to participate, everyone couldn't help but weaken the strength in their hands a little, and when it came to the prince, the eldest grandson Xinyue jumped forward with an excited face, "Brother prince, none of them hit the bull's-eye, as long as you play steadily, you will definitely win." ”

The eldest grandson smiled at night, took the bow from the minion's hand, and took an arrow in his left hand, 'Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.' ’

Three arrows in a row, all of which hit the bull's-eye.

"The prince is good at archery!" The crowd came up to compliment.

Liu Shihan looked at it and said to Xia Mengning, who was drinking tea on the side: "Obviously, those people deliberately gave it to the prince, what is there to admire." ”

Xia Mengning raised her eyes and looked at Liu Shihan, and whispered: "That's the case, Her Royal Highness the princess said that she likes that bracelet, who is so ignorant of current affairs to go up and grab it, and can round the princess's face, and by the way, you can also pat the prince's ass, these individuals, I'm afraid it's too late to be happy." ”

Liu Shihan nodded, "However, that coral bracelet is really beautiful, it's a pity that I can't shoot arrows, if only I could." ”

Xia Mengning heard this, raised her eyes and looked over, the bracelet on the table in the center of the hall was emitting a soft light, the bracelet was crystal clear, and it was very good-looking, but she didn't know that her existence was taken away by these people, and who really liked her, what these people valued was just her role at the moment.

Eldest Sun Yun was looking towards Xia Mengning, seeing that she was staring at the bracelet intently, and showed a regretful expression, and then seeing that the prince just won, Eldest Sun Yun paused in his heart, his good-looking phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and a wicked smile overflowed from the corner of his mouth.

"In this way, the winner of today's archery is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Zheng Hanxiu said, turning around to get the coral bracelet on the table.

"Wait!" The eldest grandson Yun stood up from the banquet, and his handsome facial features made many of the daughters present blush. Walking in front of Zheng Hanxiu, Changsun Yun smiled and said, "Coincidentally, I also want to play this game." ”

Everyone looked at each other, I don't know what was going on, but the eldest grandson Ye smiled generously and said: "Since the prince is also interested, let's compare them, it's just for entertainment." ”

Everyone was holding the prince just now, and now they are going to compete with Changsun Yun, so they don't know which side to go, after all, with the current situation, the only one who can match the prince is the prince of Dingxi, if he stands on the wrong team, I am afraid that it will be very troublesome.

Changsun Yun walked to the front and picked up the bow, and when the family saw this, he was about to run to change the arrow target, only to hear Changsun Yun say lightly: "There is no need to change!" ”

After speaking, three arrows were put on at a time, only to hear the sound of 'whoosh', the three arrows flew towards the arrow target in unison, everyone stretched their necks and waited, only to see that the three arrows seemed to have life, and they flew in different directions, everyone was very surprised, and they heard the three sounds of 'clang', the three arrows that the prince just shot at the bull's-eye were shot down by Changsun Yun's three arrows one after another, and Changsun Yun's three arrows were exactly inserted in the red center of the arrow target.
