Chapter 41: The demeanor of a child
"I got a new altar of drunken spirit spring there, I wonder if Yun Gongzi is interested in going and tasting one or two? Princess Roujia's soft voice sounded, enough for everyone in the flower hall to understand.
Princess Roujia saw the meaning of Yun Gongzi last time when she greeted her at the city gate, but she didn't expect that this princess would make such an invitation in front of everyone. Thinking of the emperor's intention to give marriage before, everyone's expressions became subtle.
Some people didn't think so, looking at Yun Qi's eyes full of pity and sympathy. This Princess Roujia is beautiful, but if she marries back...... Gee......
"Qi is a rough man in the mountains and fields, I am afraid that he will not be blessed to suffer from the drunken spiritual spring. Now it seems that the green bamboo brew in Wangfu is more to my liking. Yun Qi picked up the blue and white porcelain wine cup in front of him, shook his right arm slightly, and the clear liquid in the cup collided in all directions, stirring up a crisp aroma.
was rejected in public, and everyone thought that Princess Roujia would be angry, but she smiled without the slightest care, and said softly: "Since this is the case, then the son will enjoy it." Someday, Childe will love the drunken spiritual spring. ”
The last sentence can be described as meaningful and thought-provoking. People with extremely rich imagination can't help but linger their eyes between Princess Roujia and Huaxiyan.
"Although the green bamboo is good, it is too rigid and easy to break, Miss Wang Er said that this is the truth?" Princess Roujia said this, and walked out slowly, taking away a piece of brilliance in the flower hall.
Huaxi smoke mantis drooped its head, and its clear eyes were cold in a place that everyone couldn't see, which was unprecedentedly fierce.
Because Yun Qi saved her life, this princess declared war on herself? It's just that the warning just now, is she really that sure that she can kill her?
With the departure of Princess Roujia, the matter just now came to an end, Wang Yao beckoned the guests present to continue the banquet, the music of the silk and bamboo orchestra sounded again, a group of singing and dancing leveled out, and everyone continued to push the cup and change the lamp, as if no one took what had just happened to heart.
Xie Yan sat back in her original position, but she was obviously a little absent-minded, even when everyone came to greet her, she forced a smile on her face, and even sometimes answered the question, which was similar to the look of the two when she came.
Although Mrs. Wang was dissatisfied with Xie Yan, she couldn't show it on the bright side, so she took Xie Yan to the prepared guest room to rest.
Gradually, the crowd was not satisfied with feasting in their seats, and began to wander around with wine glasses and drink with others. But most of them are basically going in the direction of Yun Qi.
You don't have to think about it to know that this Yun Gongzi must be an upstart in the imperial court, so he naturally has to hurry up. For a while, the place where Yun Qi was sitting was surrounded by people.
Yun Qi had a proper smile on his face, his movements were generous, his speech was natural, and he calmly answered the questions of the powerful people with a detached and polite attitude. The peerless face of the elegance made the daughters present even more excited, and they all looked at him with a champa in their hands, blushing and heartbeat.
"That Yun Gongzi is really popular." Wang Lan approached Hua Xiyan and pouted.
Born with a face that bewitches sentient beings, what else should I do? Hua Xiyan thought like this, but did not speak.
"What kind of woman do you say is worthy of him?" Wang Lan didn't care whether Hua Xiyan answered or not, and spoke in a low voice.
Hua Xiyan looked at the rare gossip Wang Lan funny, and teased: "Could it be that my sister has taken a fancy to him?" ”
"What nonsense!" Wang Lan glared at Hua Xiyan angrily, "I'm going to be a female general!" How can you get married? ”
After staying in the Wang family for these days, Hua Xiyan also has a general understanding of the people of the Wang family. Wang Yan Shangwen, Wang Huan is in martial arts, Wang Qi is in business, Wang Jin is studying medicine, and the most bizarre thing is her eldest sister, who keeps saying that she wants to go to the battlefield to fight and make contributions to become a female general. For this, they have been dancing with guns and sticks since they were children, and they have been delayed in getting married when they grow up, which makes Wang Yao and Mrs. Wang almost have gray hair.
At the beginning, Hua Xiyan was also instructed by Mrs. Wang to persuade Wang Lan to say a few words, but the other party didn't listen at all, and looked ruthless, saying that even if she got married, she would wait until she got the title of general, and find a man who could beat her as her husband, which made Hua Xiyan speechless for a while.
"Oh, look!" Wang Lan suddenly let out a low snort, touched Hua Xiyan's arm, and pulled her thoughts back.
When Hua Xiyan heard this, he saw a table of luxurious women standing in front of Yun Qi with a wine cup, and said something with red ears.
That woman has a good appearance, and she is the best in this full house, no wonder she has the confidence to go and talk to Yun Qi.
Yun Qi still has a gentle smile that has not changed for thousands of years, he seems to be like this to everyone, there is no joy or sorrow, and he is always unfazed.
Hua Xiyan could clearly see the indifference and alienation in his eyes, as if a pool of abyss could not be seen at a glance, dark and deep, and it was difficult to peek into the feelings in his heart.
The woman was still talking about something, and then carefully took out a neat white brocade handkerchief from her sleeve, and the edges were outlined with gold threads of auspicious clouds, which were extremely eye-catching in the sunlight. So even if Huaxi Yan is not close, he can see it clearly.
Yun Qi bowed slightly, but did not speak, the woman put the Jinpa on the table in front of Yun Qi, lowered her head and ran to the group of women next to her, and accepted their teasing and joking shyly.
Hua Xiyan obviously saw Yun Qi's brows furrowed almost invisibly, and then turned his head to say something to Yang Jincheng, and with a slight lift of his white sleeve robe, the carefully embroidered handkerchief became a pile of powder, dissipating invisibly in a gust of breeze.
The young lady, who was still flushed just now, turned pale in an instant, and looked at the man who was talking to others in disbelief, Sakura's lips trembled, and her body shrunk, as if it was a difficult thing to even stand, extremely pitiful. Then he couldn't stand the disdain of others anymore, and ran away with his face hidden.
As for the other women, those who originally had some thoughts all obediently retracted the things in their hands and no longer went up to bring humiliation on themselves, but when they looked at Yun Qi, they had a little more admiration in their eyes.
Hua Xiyan sighed helplessly, this person is like this, even if he does something inappropriate, but as long as you see his face, all dissatisfaction and resentment will disappear.
"Tsk...... It's really beyond my strength...... "Wang Lan smacked her lips and made up her mind.
"Sister, are you interested?" Hua Xiyan knew that Wang Lan had always been extremely disdainful of this kind of gossip, but today's words were surprisingly much, so he couldn't help but ask with a smile.
"That's nature." Wang Lan put on a natural look, "That person is Yun Qi, who is not interested in his affairs?" I am also a layman, so naturally I am not exempt from vulgarity. ”
It is good to have a good skin, this is the idea in Hua Xiyan's heart.
"You're interested in other people, but they're not interested in you, and you don't look like a woman every day." Wang Jin stepped forward and said with a poisonous mouth.
"Shut up!" Wang Lan warned Wang Jin viciously, and then suddenly laughed when he thought of something, "Tell me that you are not much smaller than others, look at the current reputation of others, and then look at you, why do you say that the gap between people is so big?" ”
Wang Jin's handsome face was clouded for a moment, and then he gritted his teeth fiercely, and a few words popped out from between his teeth: "I haven't reached the crown yet!" ”
"Oh? Really? Wang Lan's heroic eyebrows were raised, he looked at Wang Jin with a smile, and shook his head randomly, "Gongzi Yun was also fifteen years old five years ago, and he is as old as you!" ”
Wang Jin's face turned black as the bottom of a pot in an instant, and he had to stare at Wang Lan fiercely, speechless.
Wang Lan shook his head at Wang Jin with a victorious attitude, and even Hua Xiyan felt that Wang Lan's expression was very underwhelming.
Wang Jin, who finally understood what it meant to be self-begging, threw away his sleeves and didn't look at this side again.
"Ah, that's a pleasure!" Wang Lan took a sip of the wine glass in front of him and sighed.
It is common for these two people to quarrel, and Hua Xiyan naturally knows it. However, Wang Lan, who has an upright temperament, is naturally not the opponent of the clever and intelligent Wang Jin, and he is blocked speechless every time, and this time he finally won back a game, and he was naturally very happy.
The people below are smiling and laughing, and the people above are also cheering. Just as Hua Xiyan was talking to everyone, he saw a little maid running over, saluting Hua Xiyan, and said, "My young lady has invited Miss Wang Er!" ”
Hua Xiyan recognized this person as the maid beside Xie Yan just now, and asked in a clear voice, "What did your young lady tell me to do?" ”
Xie Yan has never been at odds with herself, and now she is asking herself to go, what kind of moth are you playing?
The maid didn't dare to look at Huaxi's clear and bright eyes like a smoke and ice spring, and lowered her head and said: "My young lady thought of what happened just now, and felt that she really couldn't stand Miss Wang Er, and her heart was uneasy, so she wanted to apologize to Miss Wang Er in person." ”
Such? Hua Xiyan's eyebrows were raised, obviously unconvinced.
couldn't wait for Hua Xiyan's answer for a long time, and the maid knew that Hua Xiyan was suspicious. But thinking of the master's instructions, he gritted his teeth and said ruthlessly: "My young lady said that if Miss Wang Er doesn't go, she won't forgive Miss." Miss blamed herself and said that if Miss Wang Er likes it, then the Buddha sculpture will be given to Miss Wang Er! ”
As soon as these words came out, not only Hua Xiyan was surprised, but everyone in the Wang family also had a look of surprise on their faces.
The Buddha carving was even alarmed by Princess Roujia just now, which shows that it is extraordinarily important, and Xie Yan was also reluctant to hand it over just now, but now in this short period of time, she has changed her attention, which is really strange.
In addition, since it is to apologize to others, I didn't come to show my sincerity and sent a little maid to call people over, how can there be such a reason?
Hua Xiyan looked at the puzzled faces of the Wang family, gave everyone a reassuring look, and said to the little girl: "Since this is the case, then I will go with you." ”
"I'll go too!" Wang Lan immediately stood up and spoke.
The little maid originally wanted to say something, but when she saw Hua Xiyan's cold face, she only felt that she had nothing to hide under that look, so she just swallowed her saliva and said yes, then turned around and walked out.
Hua Xiyan stepped up to follow, curious in his heart, what kind of trick was this Xie Yan playing.
