Chapter 22
||->-> Volume 2 of the Drama Princes Chapter 22 Beauty
Inside the Taiyuan Palace.
The golden glazed palace lamps emit a soft light, reflecting on the warm pepper wall dotted with golden flowers around it, outlining the outline of the shallow double dragon playing beads on the wall. There are several huge night pearls on the gilded fragrant jade stone platform, which illuminates the hall as bright as day. The shadowy light cast on the beautiful woman's face, making her cheeks a little whiter, like white cream.
"The palace has already taken care of Yun Gongzi, and when Gongzi is tired, he can go to bed." Looking at the man in white Qinghua, Princess Roujia said in a coquettish voice, where is there half a point of arrogance in front of people during the day.
"The princess doesn't need to bother, Qi can go to the post house to stay." Yun Qi sat on the mahogany chair below and replied softly.
"How's that going to work?" Princess Roujia disagreed, "How can that little inn fit the identity of the son." Childe is here to preside over the examination for my holy heaven, and my royal family naturally wants to treat Childe well. ”
"Qi is used to the days of thatched huts and thatched huts on the mountain, if he lives in a splendid palace, he will be uncomfortable, I hope the princess will forgive me." Yun Qi spoke slowly, without half a bit of self-contempt, which made people sound a little more leisurely as an idle cloud and wild crane.
Princess Roujia's delicate lips pursed slightly, and a pair of beautiful eyes stared at the delicate face of the next person without blinking.
She walked slowly towards Yun Qi, the beads that fell from the gilded gold step slapped on her cheeks, and the cold feeling reminded her of the current situation, reminding her of the identity of the person in front of her.
Yun Qi turned his head, his plain eyes swept towards Princess Roujia, his right hand was slowly raised, and his index finger was slightly cocked between the wide sleeves, but the casual action made Princess Roujia's steps pause.
His dark and deep eyes are as indescribable as the abyss, and the streamer of the night pearl reflects the sparkling waves in his eyes, and the elegance is indescribable.
"I thought...... You treat me differently......" Seeing Yun Qi's back hand obviously blocking her from continuing to approach, Princess Roujia reluctantly spoke, her voice a little sad.
"I'm sorry for giving the princess a false impression." Yun Qi's clear voice sounded, and his flat tone was not half apologetic.
Roujia suddenly stepped forward and threw himself at Yun Qi on the chair, and in an instant, Yun Qi quickly retreated with the chair, and at the same time, a strong wind hit her head-on, Princess Roujia screamed and fell to the ground.
"Princess?" Outside the main hall, there was immediately a confused and worried call from the palace maids.
Yun Qi had already stood up, looking down at the most noble flower of the Holy Heaven with a condescending and expressionless face: "Princess, please stand firm next time you speak." ”
With that, Yun Qi turned around and walked out.
The palace maid outside the door saw Yun Qi open the door and walk out, cautiously and impatiently watched the back of Mo Qinggui Wushuang slowly disappear, and then woke up violently and walked towards the hall, and saw Princess Roujia who fell to the ground, and her face was even more shocked.
"Get out!" There was a sharp scolding sound in the palace, accompanied by the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground and suppressed sobs, and the originally peaceful environment suddenly became noisy.
Yun Qi walked out of the palace and slowly breathed a sigh of relief, and the blandness in his phoenix eyes concealed a disgust that was difficult for others to find.
When Hua Xiyan woke up, it was already past the unitary time. Looking at the gorgeous room, she was stunned for a moment, and there was a mist in her eyes.
"Why, I don't know where I am?" Hearing this voice with a faint smile, Hua Xiyan turned his head suddenly, and saw the person drinking tea indifferently at the table.
Hua Xiyan frowned, straightened his clothes and stood up, and slowly spoke: "Yun Gongzi's ability is really great, even this Dingguo Mansion is like entering a no-man's land. ”
Yun Qi didn't seem to hear the sarcasm in her words, and said with a slight smile: "Hua ** has won the award, this Dingguo Mansion is still a lot worse than the palaces of several countries." ”
Hua Xiyan frowned, weighing the meaning of this person's words, and heard this person speak again: "Do you say that I will call you Hua ** or Wang Er** in the future?" ”
At Shanghua Xiyan's hesitant eyes, Yun Qi opened his mouth and explained: "The Dingguo Mansion has issued a notice to go out, and the daughter of the righteous sister of Dingguo has come to Taiyuan, and the people of the Wang family are all happy. Thinking of the woman's grief for the loss of her mother, and she was cautious and gratifying, she was specially received under her knees, thinking that Taiyuan Wang's second **. ”
"So?" Hua Xiyan was a little surprised, he didn't expect the Wang couple to make such a decision.
It is true that since she came to the Wang family, she naturally wanted to have an explanation, but she didn't expect that the people of the Wang family would give her such an identity. I have to say that if it is in Taiyuan, there is no identity more noble and convenient than the second ** of the Wang family. Such an identity can not only block a lot of gossip and disturbances from the outside world for her, but also provide her with a firm shelter, put her in the center, and protect her very strictly.
"It is indeed surprising that the Wang couple are so sincere." Yun Qi slowly spoke, "The benefits of this identity are naturally thousands, but if you really accept it, it means that you can't stay out of anything about the Wang family from now on." And those who have an enmity with the Wang clan will probably point the finger at you immediately, which means that you will suffer more things that you should not have suffered. ”
Yun Qi's words about Huaxi smoke were naturally bright, and she smiled lightly: "If it weren't for that, would I be able to find a better home?" In what capacity and in what capacity should I avenge the blood of the Fahrenheit family? ”
Hua Xiyan slowly walked to the side of the piano case, slowly stroked the lyre, the sporadic piano sounded, the tone was melodious, each note seemed to contain the endless tail of ** compassion, just a few syllables, you can know that it is a rare good guqin.
"Just looking at how much the Wang family cares about me, I can't refuse their kindness." Hua Xiyan's voice sounded low, as crisp and pleasant as a pearl falling on a jade plate, "There are no white benefits in the world, you see that this identity brings me endless advantages and troubles, how do you know, I am not happy in it?" ”
Yun Qi's elegant long eyebrows furrowed slightly, and after a while, he returned to his light appearance, and said with a smile: "It's good that you think so, since the Wang family's notice has been sent, it is naturally not easy to take it back...... By the way, have you seen all the people of the Wang family? ”
Hua Xiyan shook his head: "Not all. ”
"Since the prince and his wife treat you very well, the others will naturally do the same. The people of the Wang family have always had a very good reputation, and the most important thing is that Grandpa Guo has no concubines. ”
Huaxi Yan showed a hint of surprise on his face. In ancient times, it was common for men to have three wives and four concubines, especially some high-ranking officials and magnates, and there were countless side rooms, but I didn't expect that there was only one female dependant in the title of Dingguo Gong.
"Therefore there is no strife in the palace." Hua Xiyan understood the inner meaning of Yun Qi's words, and couldn't help but show an extremely bright smile.
She bowed her head slightly, a wisp of green silk hung down, the corners of her raised lips lined the corners of her eyes with a touch of flying arc, her neck was graceful and slender, smooth like a galaxy, especially the indifferent bearing around her body, compared with her beautiful side face, there was an extra contradictory amazing beauty.
"According to the custom, if there is any happy event in every house, there will naturally be a banquet. And this time, the Wang family will definitely do it, and that is the first step for you to officially integrate into this circle. ”
"Hmm!" Hua Xiyan nodded, she naturally understood this truth. And the degree of each banquet will show how much importance the host attaches to the matter. Just from this incident, she can also take a good look at what the Wang family's attitude is towards her.
For the daughter of a life-saving benefactor, it is already benevolent and righteous to be able to take it in, in fact, from the bottom of his heart, Hua Xiyan does not have much hope for such a family. But what Yun Qi said about Wang Yao did not take a concubine, which made her re-examine the entire Wang family.
The candlelight flickering in the room, reflected on the red screen window, casting a shadow. Hua Xiyan looked at Yun Qi and was about to say something more, but Yun Qi made a silent gesture, and the next moment, Hua Xiyan heard footsteps entering the courtyard.
Hua Xiyan got up and let out a sigh, and saw Mrs. Wang wearing a lotus blue and gold thread embroidered Baizi pomegranate flower satin robe, with a nine-curved ring fairy bun on her head, and a few white jade inlaid red coral beads and double knotted Ruyi hairpins, and walked in with a smile.
"Auntie!" Huaxi Yan bowed and looked dignified.
"I don't have so many false manners at home!" Mrs. Wang stepped forward to hold Hua Xiyan and said gently, "I came here just now, and I saw that you were really tired, and I couldn't bear to call you, thinking that you should be awake now, so I asked you to go to dinner together, and meet your brothers and sisters by the way." ”
Hua Xiyan showed an apology on his face: "I bothered my aunt." ”
"What are you talking about?" Mrs. Wang said angrily, "In the future, this will be your home, you must not be restrained." Your mother is the benefactor of the master, you are our nobleman, you are this is our blessing, don't say anything extraordinary. ”
Hua Xiyan smiled and said yes, but did not bother Mrs. Wang.
Mrs. Wang smiled with satisfaction again: "I think you are hungry, let's go, go to the front hall to eat." ”
Hua Xiyan followed Mrs. Wang to the outside, and when she left, she turned her head and glanced at the room, the place where Yun Qi was sitting just now was empty, and the tablecloth on the table was not half messy, as if no one had come.
At night, the garden of the Guogong Mansion is lit with lanterns, and countless small lanterns illuminate the winding paths with a little more dense feeling. The night breeze blows, a little cool, bringing a rich fragrance of flowers, and there is no sense of bleak autumn, but like a midsummer night.
After passing through a few verandahs and a few more arches, we came to a large courtyard. This courtyard is extremely vast, carrying clumps of dwarf bamboo, the wind passes and the bamboo chirps, faintly accompanied by the sound of frolicking and playing in the room, a harmonious scene.
The voices of teasing each other gradually became clear, and Hua Xiyan listened vaguely, as if he was also infected by such a joyful atmosphere, and his lips involuntarily hooked an extremely pleasant arc.
