Section 93 Chapter 93 Secret Talk

In this township examination, Liao Wenbo won the second place in the literary examination. This is a thing worth celebrating for the Liao family and Liao Wenbo. Liao Nanguo, the head of the Liao family, wanted to hold a party for Liao Wenbo, and Liao Wenbo was specially allowed to host the meeting according to his own ideas.

Liao Wenbo didn't prepare to make a big splash, he just wanted to invite a few acquaintances to his courtyard, taste the freshly ripe peaches, and talk about the entrance examination to Beijing Division. Of course, there are still some of his careful thoughts, which cannot be talked about to outsiders. After arranging the courtyard, Liao Wenbo and Qingya changed their clothes and prepared to welcome the guests.

When it was time to meet, the invited guests also set off from their homes one after another. Lu Xiang'er, Lu Hong, and Huo Qingqing were no exception, and the three of them changed their clothes and prepared to go out. But when the three of them just opened the door, they suddenly found four people standing outside the door, and one of them had already raised his hand and was about to knock on the door.

When Huo Qingqing saw it, he immediately exclaimed in surprise: "Brother, the fourth prince, why are you here?" ”

"I'm coming to see you." When Huo Qingsong saw Huo Qingqing, his cold face eased a lot, and a little warmth appeared in his eyes. The fourth prince took advantage of everyone's lack of ideas, and quickly glanced at the courtyard behind Lu Xiang'er and the others. And when Huo Qingqing's eyes looked at him, he said with a smile in his eyes: "I was idle and had nothing to do, so I followed my cousin to see you." ”

"His Royal Highness the Prince and General Huo are coming to the Humble House, please come into the house and have a cup of tea." Lu Hong and Lu Xiang'er glanced at each other, and had to give up their plan to go to Liao's Mansion at this moment.

The four princes actually followed Huo Qingsong to the Lu family, which made Lu Hong and Lu Xiang'er very strange. Lu Hong had never thought that he would have a face-to-face opportunity with the four princes. Although the brother and sister knew that the biological mother of the fourth prince was the righteous daughter of General Huo, they were related. But the fourth prince is a high-ranking royal man, and he actually condescended to come to the homes of ordinary people, which really made Lu Hong feel a little weird, and he didn't know what it was.

Huo Qingsong and the four princes took Huo Bao and Chen Lin to the Lu family's living room. After a few people sat down, Huo Qingqing began to tell Huo Qingsong about his experience during this time. Huo Qingsong also listened patiently, and the four princes were even more interested in arguing with Huo Qingqing about the beauty and food of Jiangling Mansion.

Lu Hong and Lu Xiang'er sat quietly on their chairs, listening to Huo Qingqing's happy words, but they were thinking in their hearts that they might not have the opportunity to attend Liao Wenbo's party. Just as Huo Qingqing was about the same as he was talking about it, drinking tea to moisten his throat, Huo Qingsong suddenly turned his head to Lu Hong and Lu Xiang'er.

The brother and sister were slightly stunned, and Huo Qingsong suddenly said: "Brother Hong, little lady Lu, can I say a few words alone with little lady Chaoxia?" ”

"Brother, how do you know......" Huo Qingqing just wanted to finish speaking, 'How do you know that Sister Chaoxia is here', but because she found that Lu Hong and Lu Xiang'er were stunned, she immediately closed her mouth. Looking back and forth on the faces of Huo Qingsong and Lu Hong's siblings, Huo Qingqing slowly felt the tense atmosphere in the living room.

The nervousness in Lu Hong and Lu Xiang'er's eyes made Huo Qingsong quickly say and add: "Don't get me wrong, I don't have any malicious intentions, I just want to say a few words alone with Chaoxia." ”

Although Huo Qingsong said this, Lu Hong and Lu Xiang'er were a little unbelieving and did not speak. And when the four princes wanted to try to say something, a shadow suddenly appeared at the door of the living room: "Brother Hong, Xiang'er, the weather is good today, you should go to the courtyard and sit." ”

Chaoxia stood quietly at the door, looking at Lu Hong and Lu Xiang'er calmly. The look in her eyes made Lu Hong and Lu Xiang'er breathe a sigh of relief. The brother and sister looked at each other and got up together. Lu Xiang'er pulled Huo Qingqing, and Lu Hong said to the fourth prince: "Your Highness, the wine made by the sister is very good, please go to the courtyard to taste a glass." ”

The fourth prince looked at Huo Qingsong, only to see him nod, then stood up with a smile: "Oh, that's good." I have long heard my cousin say that the wine made by Mrs. Lu is a rare wine in the world, and I want to learn it today. ”

"I'll go get the wine." Lu Xiang'er waited for the fourth prince to walk out with Chen Lin, and then followed out of the living room to her room. Lu Hong asked Huo Qingqing to accompany the four princes, and he went to ask Aunt Zheng to prepare some food that could be drunk.

In the living room, as soon as Chaoxia walked in, Huo Bao came out and closed the door. Then, he came to Huo Qingqing's side, but looked at the living room from time to time. Several people didn't know what Huo Qingsong and Chaoxia were going to talk about, and they were all like Huo Bao, looking at the living room with the door closed.

When Lu Xiang'er came back with a jar of wine, a few people turned their heads. At the insistence of the four princes, Huo Qingqing and Lu Hong sat on the left and right of the four princes respectively, and Lu Xianger sat next to Lu Hong. Lu Hong opened the jar, and a smell of aroma came to his nose. The eyes of the four princes immediately lit up, and they looked intently at the wine jar.

"Just smelling the aroma, I know the difference, and I'm really looking forward to it now." The fourth prince watched Lu Hong pour the wine into the porcelain bowl, and the brilliance in his eyes became more and more abundant. When Lu Hong moved the wine jar away, the fourth prince couldn't wait to pick up the bowl and take a sip gently.

After swallowing this wine, the aroma was still overflowing in his mouth, and the four princes couldn't help but shout: "Good wine-"

"Since His Highness likes it, it couldn't be better." Lu Hong was very proud of the praise of the four princes, and poured him a glass again. To be honest, Lu Hong hasn't found anyone yet, and after drinking the wine made by Lu Xiang'er, he can't say anything good.

The fourth prince, who was very fond of wine, was talking to Huo Qingqing and Lu Hong, and looked at the living room from time to time, and his eyes flashed from time to time. And Lu Xiang'er, Lu Hong, and Huo Qingqing, like the four princes, are all paying attention to the living room and speculating from time to time.

After about half an hour, the door to the living room was finally opened under the attention of several people. Lu Hong and Lu Xiang'er were a little worried about Chaoxia, and immediately got up to greet him. Huo Qingqing found out about the actions of the two brothers and sisters of Lu Hong, and also got up and walked over.

Huo Qingsong opened the door and nodded to Lu Hong and Lu Xiang'er, who were walking in front. And when Lu Xiang'er passed by him, Huo Qingsong stared at her for a long time before turning to Huo Qingqing. Huo Qingqing found Huo Qingsong's action, and felt a little strange in his heart.

However, Huo Qingsong didn't give Huo Qingqing a chance to think about it again, but said seriously: "Qingqing, my brother's business hasn't been done yet, you still live here for a while." You don't have to rush, though. If there is no way for me to do anything when the fourth prince sets off to return to Beijing, you can follow him back to Beijing. ”

"Oh, brother, I see." Huo Qingqing nodded and calmly accepted Huo Qingsong's arrangement. Because of the previous incident, Huo Qingqing was a little mentally prepared, so there were not too many emotional ups and downs.

Huo Qingsong smiled with satisfaction when he saw Huo Qingqing, who had changed a lot from before. This smile was in Huo Qingqing's eyes, and she didn't know why it made her feel a little sad. Huo Qingqing, who wanted to say something, opened his mouth, but only moved. And Huo Qingsong seemed to understand, smiled at Huo Qingqing, didn't let her speak, and walked in front of the four princes.

When the fourth prince saw Huo Qingsong's eyes, he nodded first, then got up and said to the living room: "Little lady Lu, if you don't mind, this rest of the wine should be given to me." ”

"Your Highness, if you like to drink this wine, the folk girl will give you a jar." When Lu Xiang'er heard the words of the fourth prince, she immediately walked out of the living room, and Chaoxia and Lu Hong followed behind her.

The fourth prince looked at the wine jar on the table, nodded and smiled: "Then thank you Little Lady Lu." However, I still want to take this jar and drink it on the way back to Beijing. ”

"Since His Royal Highness insists, the people's daughter has no way to refuse." Lu Xiang'er didn't expect that these four princes would be so unexpectedly noble. With this feeling, Lu Xiang'er did not have the previous restraints in front of the four princes.

The fourth prince kept smiling and watched Lu Xiang'er go to get the wine. After Lu Xiang'er disappeared at the door of the room, the fourth prince turned his head to Chaoxia and smiled: "This little lady, where do we seem to have met?" ”

"The folk girl has never seen His Highness, and His Highness has recognized the wrong person." Chaoxia glanced at the four princes and walked into the next room. Her face was always calm, without the fear of ordinary people when they saw high-ranking officials, as if they were looking at a tree or a stone.

The fourth prince smiled again, with a playful look in his eyes. However, thinking of the way Chaoxia looked at him, the fourth prince felt a little frustrated. Thinking of his appearance, he is favored by many little ladies among the Beijing teachers. But in Chaoxia's eyes, it seems that it is not as attractive as a pot of flowers.

Soon, Lu Xiang'er held a jar of wine and handed it to Chen Lin. When Chen Lin took out the two wine jars, Huo Qingsong said goodbye to Lu Hong and Lu Xiang'er. For Lu Hong to pass the martial arts test, Huo Qingsong first congratulated him. Then, Huo Qingsong told him that the incident in the small square would not happen again. Because the entire Jiangling Mansion is about to be under martial law for a period of time, during this time, the township test will end, and Lu Hong and Lu Xiang'er may have gone to Jingshi.

When facing Lu Xiang'er, Huo Qingsong didn't speak immediately, but just looked at him. It wasn't until Lu Xiang'er was a little embarrassed and a little puzzled that Huo Qingsong said softly: "Thank you, there will be a period later." ”

"Ah, thank me?" Lu Xiang'er was slightly stunned, and when she wanted to ask Huo Qingsong why she wanted to thank her, Huo Qingsong and the four princes had already turned around and left the Lu family accompanied by Huo Qingqing and Lu Hong.

At the same time, Asaka walked out of the room. She had already changed into a brighter skirt than before, and smiled at Lu Xiang'er: "I'll accompany you to Liao's mansion ......"
