Chapter 446: Father and Daughter
Ling Xiao felt that the atmosphere in the room was a little strange, as if something obscure was shaking in the light and shadow.
She raised her eyes to look at Yan Qingge, and saw that Yan Qingge's eyes were not on the prince, but on his chest, as if she was particularly interested in the fabric.
And the prince's gaze was on Yan Qingge's body, seeing her from head to toe.
Ling Xiao remembered some rumors, coughed slightly, took Yan Qingge's hand, and saluted the prince: "I didn't know that His Highness was here, and I disturbed His Highness, and the people's daughter retired here." β
"The courtiers are retired!" Yan Qingge followed and said, shaking Ling Xiao's hand with some gratitude.
Because Yan Wan'er was present today, it was too unnatural for her to face the prince. From the cold and hard at the beginning to the high interest later, I couldn't control my emotions at all.
These two emotions should not appear, but fortunately, Ling Xiao said that he would retire, and it was like a basin of cold water poured on Yan Qingge's head.
Yes, I accidentally bumped into the prince, not to retire, but what else to do.
The prince smiled and said, "Where are the words! It's lonely to deal with official business nearby, thinking that Sumire is nearby, so I came to take a look temporarily, but I didn't expect to disturb your Yaxing. Cha Gu asked the imperial kitchen to make some food for Sumire, and if the two of them didn't dislike it, they would use some together. β
"The people don't dare!" Ling Xiao was frightened and quickly refused.
Yan Qingge also returned to normal, looked down at the tips of his shoes, and said softly: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Emperor Grandson reunite and share the family, and the courtiers dare not disturb, so they will retire." β
Yuan Jin rushed up, shook Yan Qingge's arm, and said coquettishly: "Auntie! I just told my father a lot about Brother Aman, and my father likes Brother Aman! You just stay, and let your father and Aman's brother get closer and closer. β
Yan Qingge's face turned pale suddenly.
Ah Man looks too much like her, she can be sure that if the prince can choose, he will definitely choose to take Ah Man to the palace to raise him, rather than change Yuan Sheng.
Her hatred was aroused again for a while, and it didn't matter if she snatched one of her own children, and she still wanted to be "close and close" to another?
Trying to restrain himself from gritting his teeth, Yan Qingge lowered his voice as much as possible, and saluted: "Your Highness, Aman is still young, he doesn't know the etiquette, and when he is with His Highness, he will only surprise His Highness." β
"It's okay, come on!" The prince raised his eyebrows, turned and walked to the back.
Yan Qingge's heart was cold, the prince forced them to eat, and there was no good banquet.
Yuan Jin also felt that something was wrong, looked at Yan Qingge pitifully, and said, "Auntie, do you hate Sumire very much?" Why don't you want to eat with Sumire and her father? β
"Your Highness, your aunt and I came after dinner." Ling Xiao explained: "Besides, Your Highness, you and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince haven't seen each other for a long time, right? Your Highness, you don't want you to be eating for a while, and Aman suddenly soaked in the child's urine, ruining the atmosphere. β
Yuan Jin burst out laughing, shook his head and said, "No!" How could I be bothered with a child. β
Taking advantage of Yuan Jin's lack of attention, Yan Qingge and Ling Xiao exchanged a look, and they both saw helplessness in each other's eyes!
Yuan Jin pulled Yan Qingge and Ling Xiao to the back, only to see a small room being cleaned up, the originally slightly dirty and old walls were covered with silver brocade, shiny, and the floor was also covered with a new woven carpet, and all the furniture in the room was replaced with a luxurious low table that could only be seen in the court, and small cushions were placed behind the table for people to kneel and sit.
There are six seats in the house, and the crown prince has already sat down, and the rest of the seats are just for one person, that is, even Aman, who is not yet a year old, has a seat. The nurse sat down with Aman in her arms, and Yan Wan'er was also served by the nurse, sitting at the end of the seat with Aman on the left and right.
On the table, there was a delicacies and wine, which Yan Qingge had also eaten when he was in the palace before.
But she didn't know what to eat, even if the prince invited them to come, he didn't say anything outrageous, nor did he do anything outrageous, more often than not, he just talked to Yuan Jin, but Yan Qingge still peeked at Yan Wan'er from time to time.
Yan Wan'er is only more than a year old, probably because she has always loved to be sick since she was a child, she is not as lively and active as children of the same age, thin, always sitting there quietly, not sleepy, not noisy, and not going east to west.
Although the kneeling posture is not particularly correct, it is still presentable.
In addition, she was wearing a cherry pink printed fairy dress, her hair was combed into two bags, on the top of her head, tied with a hairrope strung with gold bells and rubies, and lined with a pair of black eyes like a deep pool, just like a jade girl at the feet of the Bodhisattva in the temple.
Such a good girl, the partial prince didn't even look at half an eye. Instead, with a warm smile, he gave Aman, who couldn't eat yet, a bowl of thick porridge soup.
For a while, Yan Qingge felt very uncomfortable.
It wasn't until the end of the banquet that the prince seemed to have just seen Yan Wan'er, handed her a casual smile, took off the red coral inlaid gold bracelet between the blue sedum on his hand, handed it to Zhu Liubao next to him, and said to the bottom: "That's the beloved daughter of Princess Ning!" What a good boy, Lone came out in a hurry today, I didn't expect to meet her, this little gadget, take it to play. β
Yan Qingge almost didn't come up in one breath, not to mention that Yan Wan'er is the prince's biological daughter, just because the prince gave Yan Wan'er a marriage before, and let her marry Yuan Sheng after she settled, she shouldn't be so cold to her.
He thought Yan Wan'er was some kind of cat and dog, and he casually took off the beads in his hand to reward people.
Yan Qingge replaced Yan Wan'er and said to the prince: "Thank you, Your Highness!" β
Yan Wan'er got the bracelet over there, but she was a little confused. When she was in Yanwang's Mansion, she didn't lack gold, jade and gemstone gadgets, but her own small dressing box was full of jewelry, and the jewelry that children could use every day was changed and worn.
But Yan Wan'er herself didn't have much interest in these, and she couldn't understand what it meant for her to be given to her.
After the meal, the prince drank tea for a while, and asked Ling Xiao about the situation of everyone in the Ling family, if it weren't for Yan Qingge knowing that he had always had ulterior motives for himself, he could praise the prince for making people feel like a spring breeze when he gets along with others.
When the prince left, Ling Xiao also breathed a sigh of relief, pulled Yan Qingge aside and said, "Qingge!" You say, what the hell is going on today? β
Yan Qingge looked at the two children beside him.
Ah Man was sleepy early, and she had fallen asleep in the nurse's arms, but Yan Ling'er was still in good spirits, and the bracelet of red coral between cloisonnΓ© was clasped in her hand and circled twice before putting it on.
"As I wrote to you last time, Wan'er was given marriage and pointed out to Yuansheng, the sixth grandson of the emperor in the palace." Yan Qingge said.
Now is not a good time to tell people all the truth, even if Ling Xiao knows the true identities of Yuan Sheng and Yan Wan'er, it will be useless and useless to the whole thing.
Ling Xiao always felt that Yan Qingge didn't tell the truth thoroughly, she was a little anxious, thinking of today's weird atmosphere, she gritted her teeth, simply pulled Yan Qingge into the corner, and forced asking, "Are you ...... Are you because Brother Yu is not at home, and the prince ...... I know he used to treat you differently, but now that you have a husband and children, you can't do anything stupid! β
Yan Qingge didn't expect Ling Xiao to misunderstand, and said in surprise: "Don't guess!" Brother Yu and I are very good, I went to the palace to see him some time ago. β
"But I heard that Brother Yu took in several palace maids in the palace, didn't he send two pregnant babies to your house! When you were in the palace some time ago, I didn't dare to ask, because my mother told me that you and Brother Yu had a quarrel, and you were angry and cried. Everyone said, you bumped into Brother Yu with the eunuchs......" Ling Xiao's face turned red, and he said upside down, I don't know how to persuade Yan Qingge to get the bottom of it.
"I'm really good with Brother Yu!" Yan Qingge reiterated seriously.
She didn't expect the prince to be so ruthless, and other news about Yan Xiuyu was tightly covered, but it was Yan Xiuyu who "quarreled" with her, and was released by the prince with such a big rumor.
Ling Xiao didn't think that Yan Qingge was really good with Yan Xiuyu, she said, "I actually understand you, you can tell me." In the past, when I didn't get along with him before, he had a lot of women outside, and at that time I thought that he wouldn't marry those women into the door, of course he was generous on the surface, but my heart was very sour! Who would want their husband to have someone else? β
Yan Qingge didn't expect Ling Xiao to talk about it, so he couldn't help but stretch out his hand and hugged Ling Xiao: "Ling Xiao, have you ever thought about the future?" If a man is willing not to take a concubine, will you marry him? β
Ling Xiao stomped his feet and looked at Yan Qingge with hatred of iron and steel: "How can there be such a person in the world!" I'm talking about you right now. β
Her voice suddenly raised her words, which attracted people's attention, and the nurses over there with a few children and others were in a hurry to go back, and they all heard the news.
Yan Wan'er also followed, a pair of black eyes that seemed to be carved from black jade, emitting a glass-like brilliance under the light.
The rest of Ling Xiao's words before he could say anything suddenly swallowed back into his stomach when he saw Yan Wan'er.
Oh my God, what the hell did she see!
How can that well-behaved little girl look so much like the prince!
How she didn't find out before.
The face of the prince at the banquet just now coincided with the face of the little girl in front of him, the black eyes, the slightly pale eyebrows, and the mouth......
Ling Xiao's body suddenly seemed to be frozen by a thousand years of cold ice, and she pulled Yan Qingge, her eyes emitting a huge light: "Qingge!" What the hell is going on with her! β
As soon as Yan Qingge saw Ling Xiao's expression and eyes, he knew that Ling Xiao had seen through Yan Wan'er's identity.
After all, their father and daughter look so similar, people who have seen them can easily find the clues. I can't hide it now.
