Chapter Seventy-Two: His Anger
While the two were talking, they unconsciously arrived at Yue'er's courtyard, and when she looked up and saw the courtyard gate, she smiled: "I actually came here while talking, did I mistake Brother Tan?" ”
Su Tan also laughed: "It doesn't matter, I just have nothing to do to come to Lao Qi here to spend time, if Yue'er doesn't dislike it, why don't you invite Brother Tan to have a cup of hot tea?" ”
"Okay", she smiled and invited Su Tan in, and while beckoning people to make tea, she asked the girl on Chinese New Year's Eve: "Is the young master in the mansion?" ”
Chinese New Year's Eve replied: "The master is on the side of the main courtyard, and he sees some omissions, and he is personally supervising the work." ”
When Su Tan heard this, he asked, "Why is Lao Qi so interested and personally supervising the work?" ”
Yue'er smiled and replied: "He is very concerned about the residence of the future princess. ”
Su Tan nodded, he also knew that his father had chosen a concubine for Lao Qi, and the wedding day must be not much later than him.
After the refreshments came up, the girls all withdrew, and Su Tan asked, "Yue'er, do you want to stay here after the contract with Lao Qi expires, or do you go elsewhere?" ”
Yue'er smiled bitterly: "How can I decide whether to stay here or not, the princess allows it, but then I don't want to stay." I don't like Aunt Fu's yard, and it will be uncomfortable to live in, so most of them are likely to leave. ”
Su Tan took a sip of tea and said slowly: "Although the palace is big, I don't like it very much. After the feudal domain, I prepared to build a separate courtyard, and I usually lived in the annex, and I did not return to the palace if I had no important business. ”
Yue'er lowered her head and sipped her tea, not answering Su Tan's words.
Su Tan also changed the topic and talked to her about the battlefield she was interested in, as well as the events of her birthday.
Yue'er also talked about the education she received and the people she met in the Lin family in Guanzhong over the years. mentioned Xie Yanzhi, but she felt as if she didn't know him.
When Su Tan heard Xie Yanzhi's name, he said: "Yue'er is actually familiar with the Xie family, and Xie Yanzhi's son is now in the capital, and he has brought a lot of the Xie family's business over." ”
"Brother Tan knows him?" Yue'er was surprised and asked.
Su Tan said with a smile: "Guanzhong Xie's family is famous all over the world, but I have never been to Guanzhong and have never met Gongzi Xie, if Yue'er is familiar with him, why don't you introduce Brother Tan to him another day?" ”
So the two made an appointment, and the next day Su Tan came to pick up Yue'er, and the two went to meet Xie Yanzhi in the Xie family's business in the capital.
Xie Yanzhi was stunned when he saw Yue'er, and then looked at Su Tan who was following her, and then tentatively asked Yue'er who was looking at him: "Yue'er, a few days ago, Guanzhong wrote that you married into the capital, but this is your husband?" ”
Yue'er was smiling and didn't answer, so Su Tan preemptively said: "Su Tan, I heard Yue'er talk about it earlier, and I only got to see Gongzi Xie today." ”
When Xie Yanzhi heard this, he lifted his robe and knelt down: "Grass people Xie Yanzhi pays a visit to His Royal Highness King Su." ”
Su Tan stepped forward and helped Xie Yan up: "Gongzi Xie please hurry up, this king also wants to thank Yue'er for taking care of Yue'er in Guanzhong that day, how can he accept her benefactor's worship." ”
Yue'er also smiled and said, "Brother Yanzhi, I didn't expect you to bring the Xie family's business to the capital, it's amazing." ”
Xie Yanzhi was busy with a few modest words, and invited the two to the backyard. Now he has not bought a private house in the capital, and he has been living in the backyard of this business.
Yue'er didn't dare to mention Shu'er's affairs to Xie Yanzhi, nor did she dare to say that the two of them often met, so she only asked him about the situation in Guanzhong.
Xie Yanzhi misunderstood the relationship between Yue'er and Su Tan, and Yue'er couldn't tell him about the Wu family, so he tacitly agreed with Su Tan to let him misunderstand.
Several people were talking, and the shopkeeper in front came to report in person: "Young master, there is a seventh young master in front, saying that he wants to see Miss Shen." ”
Before he finished speaking, Su Zhi pushed the door in, first arched his hand towards Xie Yanzhi, then sat down next to Yue'er, and asked with concern: "Why don't you bring more people when you go out of the house?" As he spoke, he looked at Su Tan again: "The fourth brother is also here, why don't you go to Yipin Pavilion to eat today, Yue'er has long been thinking about the crab roe lion head there, and I booked a private room when I first came." ”
Xie Yanzhi looked at Yue'er like a pleading, and Yue'er introduced: "This is His Royal Highness King Yan." ”
When Xie Yanzhi knelt down, Su Zhi was not as good-tempered as Su Tan, so he bowed down. And the two had met before, although they had known his true identity, they couldn't show it in front of people at this time, Xie Yanzhi still pretended to be a first acquaintance.
After saluting, Su Zhi lazily let people get up, and then all his attention was on Yue'er. Yue'er gave him an unhappy look and ignored him.
At this time, Xie Yanzhi took apart the previous things in his heart and thought about it, and after a while, he raised his head and glanced at Yue'er with a complicated look.
Su Zhi told him at the time that what he needed was for Wang Jingshu to leave the capital, but Shu'er had nothing to do with His Royal Highness King Yan, and it couldn't be for that fool. Then there is only one possibility, His Royal Highness King Yan did not tell him the truth. It wasn't Shu'er who really wanted to leave the capital at all, but he who left with Shu'er, it was him Xie Yanzhi.
Why does King Yan want him to leave Beijing with Shu'er, then there is only one possibility, His Royal Highness is afraid that the people he cares about will go with him. And now it seems that the person he cares about is Yue'er, so ......
Su Zhi found the little thing in Xie Yanzhi's eyes, so he smiled and shook Yue'er's hand and said to Xie Yan: "It was Yue'er who asked this king to help you, and when the two of us were in Guanzhong, I accidentally bumped into you and the eldest lady of the Wang family. Yue'er wanted to fulfill you, so she told me. ”
Yue'er glanced at Su Zhi with some resentment, but finally didn't say anything.
Then she invited Xie Yanzhi to go to Yipinge, and the other party found an excuse very interestingly and didn't really follow.
On the way to Yipinge, it was Su Tan's carriage, and after getting in the car, Su Tan said to Yue'er: "Brother Tan's birthday gift for you, remember to always put it on your body, and you can be more free to enter and exit the capital." ”
Yue'er looked at Su Zhi, he pretended not to see it, but she didn't intend to be fooled like this, so she said: "I'll go back to you today to get it, and I should take it back for you for these days." ”
After dinner, Su Tan left directly, and did not return to Yanwang's Mansion, Yue'er went directly to his study to pick up things after Su Zhi went back.
Su Zhi took out the things from the dark grid, turned around and said, "Do you know what it means to accept the jade pendant of the fourth brother?" ”
Yue'er knew it but didn't say anything, Su Zhi was a little annoyed, he dangled the jade pendant in front of her eyes and said, "If you accept this, you accept him and that person." Are you going to tell me that you want to go to King Su's Mansion? Do you know what that means? ”
She still didn't say anything, and she didn't look up at Su Tong.
Su Zhi was so angry that he almost wanted to throw the jade pendant out and smash it to a pulp, but he still forcibly held it back and put it on the table and asked Yue'er: "You decide for yourself whether to accept this jade pendant or not, and you can take the dagger away." ”
Yue'er stretched out her hand and took away the dagger, Su Zhi's heart was relieved, but she saw her other hand stretched out and took the jade pendant away.
He angrily kicked the table where the jade pendant and dagger had just been placed, but she had already walked out of the study and into the backyard.
