I have to say that Shen Yuan's words are tantamount to a thunderbolt that shocked her heart to a pound.

"When the eldest lady was still there before, the second miss was still well-behaved and clever, I thought that the second miss had been away for seven years, and those little tempers had been restrained, but I didn't expect it to be so domineering."

Shen Yuan's peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly, and said, "Sister Qing'er, I mean seriously." ”

Seeing Shen Yuan's insistence, Qing'er first took her to a teahouse to sit down, and bought a small bag of pine nut candy for Shen Yuan.

"Second Miss, I know that what you have decided will never change. Even the eldest lady told me that whatever the second lady wants, the second lady will get it no matter what means she uses. ”

Qing'er knew that under Shen Kite's well-behaved and cute appearance, she was not as peaceful as others thought.

Withdrawn, domineering, coquettish, and willful...... This is the true side of Shen Kite, because the Gu poison brought out of her mother's womb made Shen Kite tortured when she was a child, Shen Mu and Shen Yu treated her very well, and also raised a lot of Shen Kite's bad temper.

"So you're all saying bad things about me behind your back?" Shen Yuan teased.

She wasn't angry, because they were telling the truth.

"But Second Miss, the person you want this time is the prince of King Qin. I can see that the prince of Qin has some feelings for you, and you have a deep affection for him, but if he wants to marry you only in his life, such words are simply fantastic. ”

Shen Yuan chewed on the pine nut candy for a moment, and there was a trace of confusion in his eyes, "I won't give him to others." ”

Qing'er knew that she said this, and Shen Yuan couldn't listen to it, so she changed her words, "What does the second young lady think of the eldest young master to me?" ”

"Very good." When Shen Mu was still alive, although he did not give him the position of equal wife, he was the only favor of Qing'er.

Qing'er had a smile in her eyes, but she still said: "In this case, why does the second young lady think that the eldest young master likes me so much, but only accepts me as a concubine?" ”

Shen Yuan's hand holding the paper bag tightened, and his eyes sank a little.

If you want to ask why, because Qing'er is only the daughter of the slave of the Marquis of Zhongyi, and Shen Mu is the eldest son of the Marquis of Zhongyi, and he has a bright future in the future, his wife must be a woman whose identity can be on the stage and whose family background can help Shen Mu's career to be smooth.

So no matter how much Shen Mu loves Qing'er, he can only allow her to be a concubine, and Qing'er also knows this truth, so she has never asked for anything.

"Because I don't want the young master to be told that his wife is the daughter of a lowly house slave, I never thought of being the young master's wife." Qing'er looked at the clear blue sky and exhaled a breath of turbidity, with sadness in her eyes.

"The second miss is still young, and she just insisted on going back to Chang'an this time, and the eldest lady went to the Qin Palace, and she didn't think too much about it." Qing'er raised her hand to give Shen Yuan a long haircut under the corner of her sideburns, she treated Shen Yuan like her own sister, so she dared to say this, "In the future, as the prince of the world, he will inevitably have a wife and concubine, and since the second lady has identified the prince of the world, she must learn to get used to it."

Shen Yuan hung his head, and he didn't even move the pine nut candy he liked to eat.

Habit?

How could she get used to sharing Wei Yan with others?

But now, what qualifications does she have to stand side by side with Wei Yan?

Maybe Wei Yan likes her, but it's just because she knows how to please Wei Yan, she will beg in front of Wei Yan, hide her original personality tightly, and then become the one Wei Yan likes.

Removing this layer of false masks, Shen Yuan counted carefully, and it seemed that he was really not worthy of Wei Yan.

Qing'er saw that Shen Yuan's mood was obviously low, so she got up and stretched out her hand to Shen Yuan, and said, "Aren't you going to Dry Branch Lane?" Can the second lady still walk? ”

Shen Yuan pursed the corners of her mouth, nodded, and took Qing'er's hand and continued to walk forward. Although he didn't show too much emotion on his face, his heart was messed up because of Qing'er's words.

In the Hanguang Hall of the Imperial Palace, Emperor Yunjing sat on the top seat in a crown robe, and the queen and Liu Guifei sat on the left and right hands, while Wei Yan's position was below the queen and above the princes, but no one dared to question it.

Below, hundreds of civil and military officials were seated, and the summoned eunuch in front of the palace door shouted loudly: "Welcome Xiliang to envoy!" ”

Xiliang country is surrounded by snow-capped mountains on three sides, the grassland is vast, there are many cattle and sheep, Xiliang people are all raised on horseback, drink cow's milk and eat beef, the physique is strong, and the clothes on their bodies are made of animal skins.

This time, the king of Xiliang asked one of his princes and princesses as envoys to escort tributes to the Ming Dynasty, one is to maintain the relationship between the two countries, and the other is to make peace.

"Chen Ye Luhong has seen Emperor Yunjing!"

"The courtier Yelu Danyang has seen Emperor Yunjing!"

The brother and sister saluted Emperor Yunjing, and Emperor Yunjing was very satisfied with their self-professe, "The prince and princess of Xiliang don't need to be polite, the two of you have traveled a long way to come to my Daming, and I will set up a palace banquet for you, and do my friendship as a landlord of Daming." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Emperor Yunjing signaled to Wu Quan, the eunuch beside him, and Wu Quan said loudly: "Banquet!" ”

Yelu Hong and Yelu Danyang sat on a seat, Yelu Danyang looked at the red-clothed prince sitting above, pulled Yelu Hong's sleeve, and asked, "Brother Huang, who is the person in red above?" Good looking! ”

Yelu Danyang noticed Wei Yan after entering the hall, and he didn't dare to ask in a whisper until now.

Ye Luhong looked at it, the young man on the top was peerless, dressed in fresh clothes like fire, and his phoenix eyes were arrogant, as if he had never put people in his eyes, and his gestures showed the majesty of the royal family, which was really eye-catching.

This time, Ye Luhong also did a lot of investigation, after all, their purpose was to make peace, "That should be the prince of King Qin, Wei Yan." Two years ago, he infiltrated the Xiliang military camp and killed Barr's people. ”

Yelu Danyang repeated stupidly, "Wei, Yan." ”

Xu is Yelu Danyang's gaze was too hot, Wei Yan turned his head and glanced at her, Yelu Danyang couldn't help blushing, and the deer in his heart collided.

"Brother Huang, I want to marry Wei Yan!"

The dry branch alley is dark and narrow, and there are a few gangsters squatting there at the mouth of the alley to drink and play dice, and the courtyard inside is very shabby, which is incompatible with the prosperous Chang'an City.

Shen Yuan stopped at the door of a house, and looked up to see a plaque hanging on the ashed lintel.

The plaque reads the word "Chengxin".

"Why does Miss Second have to come here to buy drawing paper? Could it be that the drawing paper in this house is different from other people's homes? Qing'er asked puzzled.

Shen Yuan nodded and explained: "Chengxintang paper is complicated in workmanship, the paper skin and eggs are like membranes, clean as jade, thin and smooth, insects are not mothed, mildew is not invasive, and it can be protected from decay and fading for thousands of years." However, it is expensive, so few people buy it, and until now, Chengxintang paper is no longer sold in the market and is gradually forgotten.

"Now as far as I know, there is only one family living in the dry branch lane in Chang'an City."

Qing'er doesn't understand Danqing, and she also doesn't understand what Shen Yuan said, "The second lady has been away for seven years, but I didn't expect to know Chang'an City so well." ”

"Sister Qing'er, have you forgotten who my master is?"

Qing'er knew that Shen Yuan's master was a terrible person, and it was not surprising that Shen Yuan had been by his side for seven years, so it was not surprising that he knew about these things.
