Xiao Yu'er went for almost half an hour before she came back, and she was about to say something to Xianchen with a cramped face, when she heard a report from outside: "Master Hou is waiting for Miss Yan to have lunch together in the courtyard." Yes, it's noon, and families like Ning Fu pay the most attention to "food time", and Xianchen has to suppress his curiosity for a while, clean up a little and go out.

Ning Zhe was sitting on a stone bench between a few begonia trees, and there was a blue and white porcelain tea cup on the stone table on the side, he didn't reach out to take it, just waited quietly, giving people a feeling that people were as light as chrysanthemums and ethereal. Occasionally, begonia petals fell on the placket of his clothes, adding to the beauty, and when the three of them looked at it, it was Rose who blushed first.

"Master Hou, I've been waiting for a long time." It is very natural for Xianchen to see Ning Zhe now, and it is not as if he just knew how cowardly the two were when they got married.

"It's an honor." Ning Zhi glanced at Xian Chen, and said shyly: "Today's Yan Yue is really good-looking. ”

"Is that true?" Xianchen was really surprised, just because she knew that even if she dressed up as a Nine Heavens Fairy, Princess Anping would not think that she was worthy of her son, so she simply let Xiao Yu'er put on very light makeup and regular clothes for her.

"This is the real you, on the day of Qianqingguan, I saw you dressed in costume, and I seemed uncomfortable all day long."

"Hey...... You see? Did I look awkward that day? I thought it was weird myself. Xianchen suddenly felt a little embarrassed, and didn't dare to look at Ning Zhe.

"That's not true, I just want to tell you that you never have to force yourself in front of me, just be yourself." Ning Zhen looked at Xian Chendao with affection.

"That...... Let's go, Madame, it's time to wait. Slim Dust didn't know how to respond to his affectionate words and hot eyes, so she had to dodge, and Rose and Little Fish snickered and followed.

Ning Zhe also walked forward quickly and walked parallel to Xian Chen, and soon arrived at the side hall of An Ruo Palace, Princess Anping and Meng Zhiyue had already sat down, and they also sat down after seeing each other. Meng Zhiyue was already sitting on the right side of Princess Anping, Ning Zhe sat down on the left seat, and Xianchen was at the end of the seat.

After lunch, sure enough, Princess Anping immediately proposed to go to the flower hall to drink tea, and Meng Zhiyue Shi Ran sat in front of the desk, bowing slightly. The two little maids brought up the high-quality white glazed tea set and put it on the table, Meng Zhiyue picked out a spoonful of tribute tea from the jar, Guanyin entered the view, the hanging pot was high, the spring breeze was blowing, Guan Gong patrolled the city, and Han Xin ordered the troops. She first offered the tea to Princess Anping, Princess Anping opened the tea lid and sniffed it gently, then closed her eyes and carefully tasted a mouthful of praise: "Bitter is sweet, sweet is bitter, first bitter and then sweet, life is the same." ”

"Madam, you always praise me, I don't believe it, I dare to believe it only if the Hou Ye says it's good." After that, Meng Zhiyue held the second cup in Ning Fold again.

"Sweet and mellow, Miss Meng is really good at craftsmanship." Ning Zhen took a sip and said, "Yan Yue, you can also taste it, it is really comparable to the craftsmanship of the imperial tea room." ”

Meng Zhiyue's face was like a peach blossom for a moment, and then he handed the third cup to Xian Chen, who also took a sip and said, "The temperature is just right." ”

When he went to Taifu's Mansion on his first day to attend classes, he was concentrating on listening to Yun Taifu's lecture, but because Yun Taifu asked a female student, he laughed out loud in the classroom, which greatly damaged his demeanor as a first-class noble son of Wu State.

Princess Anping coughed lightly, and glanced at the two of them with her afterglow before she whispered to Meng Zhiyue: "Let Zhiyue see that you are smiling, it is rude to Zhe'er, he is a piece of rotten wood, you don't want to be like him." ”

Xianchen was originally provoked by Ning Zhe to laugh, but at this moment, after listening to Princess Anping's words of scolding Sang, she had to lower her head and purse her mouth and laugh, but Ning Zhe's embarrassment was so interesting that she was shaking all over her body with a smile.

"Madam, look at what you said, Marquis Wen'an is the first noble son of Wu State, and now he has been knighted, who can match him in Wu State? If he is a rotten wood, what has become of others? Meng Zhiyue glanced at Xianchen and said, "Madame doesn't know yet, the whole country of Wu will call the Hou Ye and the Lord Yun of the Taifu Mansion the 'double beauty for a while' in the Wu Kingdom." ”

Hearing the name, Xian Chen's smile stopped abruptly, and she thought of Yunyi's injury that day, and her golden silk soft armor still had no clue. Ning Zhe also quietly looked at Xian Chen.

"What is 'a double balance for a while', I want the slave to say that this Lord Yun can't be compared with Hou Ye at all." The maid beside Meng Zhiyue dared to intervene in the master's words in the Ning Mansion at this moment, thinking that Meng Zhiyue must be weak by nature, and the people under her were powerless, so that they had nothing to fear.

"Yu'er is not allowed to talk nonsense, where is your interference in front of Madame." Meng Zhiyue scolded in a low voice.

Although Princess Anping also felt that this maid had transgressed, she was curious about how this Yunyi was inferior to her son, so she said approachingly: "It's okay, there are no outsiders here, let her talk about it, and we should have fun." ”

"Mrs. Xie doesn't blame her, the slave maid just really thinks that Lord Yun is not worthy of being as famous as Lord Hou, and she doesn't mention this background and characters, so she only said that last month, Lord Yun was drunk and made trouble in Juxian Building, and injured the procurement family of the Hou Mansion of Wen'an, he is not worthy."

"Oh, there's such a thing." Princess Anping put down the teacup in her hand with interest and sounded seriously.

"Isn't it? So far, it is still spreading all over Yecheng. It is said that this Yun Daren is upright and upright, knowledgeable and courteous, who knew that he was drunk and making trouble in public, and the family procured by the Hou Mansion of Wen'an rested in the drunken immortal building and was seriously injured by him. But what about Hou Ye? I didn't blame at all, I laughed at it, isn't this attitude immediate? ”

"I have seen this son of Yunfu, he is not arrogant, he is a respectful and polite child, how can this be?"

"As the old saying goes, 'Knowing the face but not the heart', with what kind of court upstart he is, he hasn't been reprimanded by His Majesty again......"

The ten fingers of Xianchen only grasped the teacup in his hand, and the knuckles were already white. Last month? It's the first month, what kind of difficulties did he encounter at the beginning of the new year? It is unimaginable that such a calm and restrained personality would get drunk and beat people on the street.

Ning Zhe also unconsciously clenched the teacup in her hand, when would she reveal such a look for herself?

Only Meng Zhiyue was still gentle as water, looking at everyone with a smile and telling Princess Anping some stories about the tea ceremony, Princess Anping listened to her with relish and praised her erudition.

Xian Chen sat with her in a trance for a while, and Princess Anping noticed that her face was not good, and worried about her body, so she asked her to go back to the room to rest first, leaving Meng Zhiyue and Ning Zhe to accompany her.

Xianchen didn't feel uncomfortable, but thinking that he could go back to the room early, he didn't say much to say goodbye. After returning to the room, Xiao Yu'er couldn't wait to tell Xianchen what she saw when she went out this morning: "Miss, do you know who I just met?" ”

"Who?"

"Ruby."
