Chapter 13: The Poetry Society (2)
Xuanyuan Yuchen is not a person who likes to explain, not to mention that Shangguan Lihua is not really a pretentious and arrogant person, even if it is, so what? But he was reluctant to let Shangguan Lihua be wronged, even if Shangguan Lihua didn't feel wronged at this time and defended anything. So, he glanced at Shangguan Qihua, which one was very calm, and there was not even a trace of fluctuation in his eyes. But Shangguan Qihua read the breath of death from the calm light in his eyes.
She never thought that His Royal Highness the Third Prince, who had always been gentle as jade, would look at her with such eyes, as if she were a dead person, without any color. This made Shangguan Qihua have to feel fear from the inside. Maybe....... Maybe she shouldn't have followed His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to find this Shangguan Lihua today. It was already a mistake to go up the mountain from the beginning. She thought uncertainly, the third prince wasn't warning herself just now, was he? She thought to herself, hypnotizing.
"This hall has followed Dingguo Gong to the battlefield several times, and then came and went to Dingguo Mansion many times, so it can be regarded as growing up with Li'er. The main hall actually doesn't know that Li'er, you are the person who is arrogant and arrogant, and there is no one in your eyes? Xuanyuan Yuchen looked at Guan Lihua fixedly, and said to the latter: "Your Royal Highness has heard your father comment many times in front of the Duke of Dingguo that you are too quiet, and you don't go out often, let alone see you befriend any princess and noblewoman. People who don't know still think that you can't even look down on princesses, otherwise how could you not have a relationship with them. ”
Xuanyuan Yuchen said this very well, to explain that even he can be regarded as a person who grew up together has never heard that Shangguan Lihua does not take the nobles of the family in his eyes, so where did the person who said this know from it, I don't know. Since it's something you don't know, how can you be gullible? Second, even His Majesty the Emperor complained in front of the Duke of Dingguo that Shangguan Lihua was too quiet and didn't go out often, and he hadn't seen any intersection between Shangguan and the princess and the princess. The nobles of the family are noble, but they are not the emperor's daughter, right? Even the emperor's daughters have never crossed paths, so why do they think that Shangguan Lihua should have intersected with them a long time ago.
As soon as Xuanyuan Yuchen's words came out, the people who were still hostile to Shangguan Lihua just now complained to her with a grateful look. Later, they all glared at Shangguan Qihua, if she hadn't deliberately guided everyone, how could she have almost made the mistake of despising the royal family? Fortunately, fortunately, this Shangguan eldest lady doesn't care, otherwise if this is to make trouble back to the Dingguo Mansion, it is estimated that the Dingguo Duke will not give up, after all, the people in the entire Jinling City know that the Shangguan Ao of Dingguo is quite fond of his eldest daughter, Guan Lihua, and is almost all-encompassing.
Seeing that the scene was a little embarrassing, Xuanyuan Yuling hurriedly stepped forward to mediate: "All of you are famous talents and beauties in my Xuanyuan Dynasty, and today the palace also takes advantage of the infinite scenery of Beichen Mountain and a little red plum, so that everyone can come to meet friends with poetry and literature." What the third emperor brother and Miss Shangguan said is that since they are members, they don't care about their official positions, they don't talk about their status! ”
Everyone would not refute Prince Xuanyuan Yuling's words. They all walked to the gazebo opposite.
Because of the delay in the middle, Xuanyuan Yuling had already arranged for someone to prepare in this pavilion. Pen, ink, paper, inkstone, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting and other supplies are also prepared. When everyone arrived at the pavilion, it really looked like a literary poetry club, at least there were all the other things here.
It is said that regardless of the status of this literary poetry club, there are still many poor students who have a lot of scruples, only being bystanders, and they don't plan to perform on the stage.
Not long after, the second prince Xuanyuan Yuqi and the fifth prince Xuanyuan Yulin also arrived with a group of people. Shangguan Lihua glanced at it, and there were people in the group who knew and didn't know each other, and they all gathered together. acquaintances, such as Xuanyuan Yue, the daughter of King Ning, was named the lord of Yuejun, and Zhang Yunyun and Zhang Zhizhao, the sons and daughters of Zhang Shuzhen, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and Su Jinlan, the daughter of Su Enguo, the secretary of the Ministry of Works. The rest are unknown people.
Xuanyuan Yuqi stood still, "Brother Prince, Brother Three Emperor, there is such a beautiful color in Beichen Mountain, you all travel with beauty, so chic." Yu Qi is not talented, but he also wants to follow the crown prince and brother to be elegant, so as to live up to such a beautiful scenery. After speaking, everyone took a serious look at the person who spoke.
I saw that the man who spoke was handsome, and his delicate facial features were as angular as carving. The handsome appearance seems to be debauched, but the inadvertent light in the eyes makes people dare not underestimate it. This person is the second prince Xuanyuan Yuqi who has always been at odds with the crown prince Xuanyuan Yuling. As soon as he opened his mouth casually, good guy, he almost said directly that the crown prince and the third prince were greedy for beauty and did not do their job.
When Prince Xuanyuan Yuling saw that the person who came was his sworn enemy Xuanyuan Yuqi, he didn't care about Xuanyuan Yuchen and Shangguan Lihua. As for Shangguan Qihua, who came together, he didn't know where he had forgotten for a long time, and at this time, his opponent came, and he didn't get on the raft, where could he still think of her.
"Now who doesn't know that the second emperor brother is getting an errand in front of his father, how can he be as idle as me and the third emperor brother?" Xuanyuan Yuling remembered that a while ago, he, the second emperor's younger brother who was usually inconspicuous, was suddenly appointed by his father as the third grade of Jinyi Weidu Shi, responsible for the safety of the entire Jinling City, and Xuanyuan Yuling had a stomachache. It is said that he has been planning for many years, and so far, his father has never given him any reward, let alone directly given military power.
Don't look at the history of these three brocade clothes and guards, the official position is not big, and the real military power is in hand. Jinling City came out of the Imperial Forest Army and the army in the palace, and the strength of the equivalent is probably only the thirteen guards of the Jinyi Guard. Now that the father didn't say a word, he directly assigned a brocade guard to Xuanyuan Yuqi, whether this is a signal that the emperor is hinting at, it is still unknown. However, Xuanyuan Yuling had to re-examine it, and at this moment he had no good impression of Xuanyuan Yuqi, and was even a little hostile.
"When the crown prince said this, did the prince and brother seem to be dissatisfied with his father's decision? Or does the crown prince and brother think that his younger brother is not worthy of being the history of this brocade guard? Xuanyuan Yuqi retorted without showing weakness.
"You..... When did this palace say that he was dissatisfied with his father's decision? I know that the second emperor brother is 'spring breeze proud' at the moment, don't accidentally play yourself in! The prince said in a gloomy voice.
"It's just the father and the emperor who love his younger brother, it doesn't matter whether to play or not. Since the crown prince and the royal brother organized this literary and poetry meeting, how could the younger brother come to join in the fun? After Xuanyuan Yuqi finished speaking, he walked towards Shangguan Lihua and Xuanyuan Yuchen, and continued: "I heard earlier that my third emperor brother often followed Dingguo Gong in and out of the military camp, so he also often entered and exited Dingguo Gongfu, this palace doesn't know that the third emperor brother is so familiar with Lihua?" ”
