Chapter 297: The court shows affection

Even the eldest prince on the side couldn't stand it, Zhou Yanran, who had always regarded herself very highly, looked like this, and Zhou Yanxue, who had never spoken, finally opened her mouth for the first time, and said in a somewhat cold tone, "Yanran, you should go back to your own table." ”

Zhou Yanran received Zhou Yanxue's warning eyes, and then she found that there were already a lot of people around her looking at her, so she had to stand up in frustration, and bowed slightly towards the eldest prince and Zhou Yanxue, and quickly left here and went back to the table where she was on the other side.

After Zhou Yanran left, Li Yun sat expressionlessly, unable to see joy and anger, but Li Yue had a clear expression of "this county lord is very unhappy" on her face, and she was still angry because of Zhou Yanran's words.

This made the eldest prince even more puzzled, Li Yun and his wife did not have a good relationship with the Zhenguo General's Mansion.

Seeing that both of them were old monks and didn't plan to talk to him, the eldest prince was angry that these two people didn't take him seriously, but he had to endure it, and he still had a fake smile on his face.

He hadn't forgotten the purpose of his trip, which was to make friends with the couple.

Seeing that there was no progress in staying any longer, the eldest prince had no choice but to speak, "Your Highness will go over first, and the two of you will eat and drink well." Zhou Yanxue on the side stood up.

Li Yun politely stood up and saluted, "Congratulations to Your Highness." As for Li Yue, she didn't move at all, anyway, everyone knew that she was a country wild woman who didn't understand etiquette, so why did she still act so knowledgeable? Do whatever you want to look like a country woman.

As soon as the eldest prince left, Li Yue fell on Li Yue's shoulder without an image, and complained aggrievedly, "How long will it take?" My head is so heavy and so cold. ”

Li Yun helped Li Yue to take off the crown of her hair and said, "Take it, the king is gone." It should be soon, hold on a little longer. ”

After helping Li Yue remove the hair crown and put it on the table, Li Yun grabbed Li Yue's cold hands, held them in his palms and rubbed them to warm Li Yue's hands.

At this time, many people also looked at Li Yun's side, of course, there were many admirers of Li Yun, after all, Li Yun used to be a stunning champion Yanjing, and then disappeared inexplicably and returned again, but he was a general of Zhenbei with great achievements, but there was an extra mediocre-looking woman beside him.

If this mediocre-looking woman is just an ordinary woman, they still have hope, but this mediocre-looking woman, as soon as she came to Yanjing, she soared to become the hereditary county lord of Chang'an, how could they fight with her, and now seeing that Li Yun actually spoiled this Chang'an county lord like this, that look in his eyes was even more envious and jealous.

Li Yue, who has always been keen outside, of course also found those various eyes, but she did not feel uncomfortable at all, but was even more unscrupulous, and directly fell into Li Yun's arms.

is a husband and wife, although it is a little indecent, but because of her status as the county lord of Chang'an now, no one dares to come forward and say no, as for someone to talk about it behind her back, she can't hear it no matter what, Li Yue won't care.

Li Yun was very helpless about Li Yue's demonstrative possessiveness, but he also had a secret joy in his heart, of course, he would not stop Li Yue's behavior of throwing himself into his arms.

The two of them sat at their own table to show their affection, Zhou Huaijin, who happened to be sitting opposite the two, looked at the behavior of the two opposite, rolled his eyes, and complained in his heart, these two people are really not ashamed.

The people who originally planned to come over to talk to the two or say hello to them, after seeing the appearance of the two again, they were embarrassed to go over, and they all dispelled their thoughts in an instant.

Just when Li Yue was leaning on Li Yun's arms and falling asleep, Li Yun, who finally listened, said, "You can go back." ”

Li Yue sat up from Li Yun's arms, stood up, and said to Li Yun, "Let's go." ”

Then Li Yue ignored the surprised eyes of the people around her, and walked quickly towards the door of the hall, Li Yun looked at Li Yue's crisp movements, pursed her lips slightly, picked up the hair crown on the table, and quickly followed.

At this time, at the gate of the palace, there were also a lot of carriages with lanterns with iconic words waiting outside, as soon as Li Yun and Li Yue went out of the palace gate, Li Zhong drove the carriage over, and the lanterns hanging on both sides of the carriage were a little special, because there were no words on the lantern, it was a simple lantern.

The surrounding carriages were very curious, who were these two people? The first to leave the palace, and then the carriage didn't even have a sign?

The two got into the carriage driven by Li Zhong, and the carriage set off quickly to Zhou Yuan Houfu, because it was the New Year, along the way, the sound of artillery could be heard from time to time, and occasionally the excited frolicking of children added a bit of joy to this quiet night.

In the carriage, Li Yue nestled in Li Yun's arms and spoke softly, "What do you think this eldest prince thinks?" Do you think we have a good relationship with the Zhenguo General's Mansion? Or don't make friends? ”

Li Yunying said, "This person is very cautious, he should continue to inquire." ”

Li Yue looked up at Li Yun in Li Yun's arms, "Then you say, if he is sure that we don't have a good relationship with the Zhenguo General's Mansion, will he still win us over?" ”

Li Yundao, "I don't know, I suspect that what happened back then will have something to do with him, and it is very likely that it has something to do with his desire to win over my grandfather." ”

Li Yue looked up at Li Yun, "You mean he wanted to win over his grandfather before?" ”

Li Yun nodded, "Through the relationship between Zhou Yanxue and Zhou Yuan's Houfu, he has been to the Hou Mansion twice, and both times he specially visited his grandfather, but both times he met with Zhou Yanxue, I was depressed because of the divorce, and I didn't want to see Zhou Yanxue, I just thought that he deliberately came to my house to demonstrate to me, and he didn't think much about it at all, and after coming twice, he didn't come again. ”

Li Yue propped up her chin thoughtfully, "It seems that his wooing has not succeeded, now that he wants to woo you and me again, why don't we reject him and see how he reacts?" ”

Li Yun listened to Li Yue's words, and a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, "I couldn't win over, and I wanted to get the power of Zhou Yuanhou Mansion, so I had evil intentions, and then I hooked up with my uncle and made Zhou Yuan Houfu his own person." ”

Li Yue listened to Li Yun's speculation and shook her head, "No, the current Zhou Yuanhou, in my opinion, is completely a straw bag who is afraid of having a knighthood, I don't think this will help the eldest prince, saying that this is his purpose, and getting such a result is a bit too far-fetched." ”

Li Yun was also a little puzzled by what Li Yue said, and he also felt that this inference was somewhat unreasonable, but it can't be said to be completely unreasonable, what is wrong? "Could it be that my grandfather had something in his hands at that time, something worth it for him to get at all costs?" Li Yun frowned slightly and muttered.

Li Yue looked at Li Yun's red light reflected by the lantern, frowned slightly, stretched out her hand and stroked it gently, "Don't guess, let's check slowly first." ”

Li Yun thought that such a blind guess would not lead to any useful results, and it was even easier for himself to fall into the blind corner of his blind guessing conclusion, so it was even easier to miss the truth, so he listened to Li Yue's no longer thinking nonsense, stretched his brows, pulled down Li Yue's hand, and gently pinched it in Li Yue's hand.

"I'm afraid this matter won't be taken over for a while, and after the New Year, we have to go back to the border first, do you say I will resign now, or will I take leave to go back?"

Li Yun originally had his own thoughts in his heart, that is, he waited until he found out about the assassination of his grandfather and his mother, and then resigned and returned to his hometown, after all, if he had a proper identity, it would be easier to act in Yanjing, but Li Yun found that Li Yue seemed to be a little sensitive to this matter, so Li Yun wanted to consult Li Yue's opinion, and Li Yue can sometimes provide unique insights, sometimes more detailed than thinking about the problem himself.

Li Yue thought for a while, and said, "The rapid retreat is an opportunity, we are too popular now, I am afraid that I can't resign from the title of the county lord, then you can resign first, so that when we go back to the border, no one will always stare at us, with the title of my county lord, there will be nothing wrong with us coming to Yanjing again." ”

Li Yun responded, "Okay, it's up to you." ”

Li Yun and Li Yue didn't expect that Li Yue's temporary decision allowed the two of them to easily escape the fatal catastrophe.

"And when are we going back?" Hearing that she was finally going back, Li Yue was excited at this time.

Li Yun looked at Li Yue's excited face, and couldn't help but reach out and pinch Li Yue's cheeks, which had become red and fresh because of excitement and cold, and said, "You have to wait for Zhou Jinbao's matter to be solved before going back, otherwise let's leave like this, Zhou Jinbao is really going to die in the hands of the Wu family, and you have to die of guilt." ”

Li Yue nodded and replied, "Yes, this matter has to be solved first, and I don't know when this Hou Ye and Mrs. will take action." The two of them were still guessing when this Mrs. Hou would act, but they didn't know that after they left this banquet, Mrs. Hou had a move, of course, all of this fell into the eyes of Yan Jiu, who had nothing to do and had been paying attention to the movements of the people around her.

When the two went back to Zhou Yuan's Waiting Mansion, Wu's mother, Xu Qingqing and Xiao Xin were still in the living room outside, Wu's mother watched Li Yun and Li Yue come back, and hurriedly beckoned Xu Qingqing to go and get the charcoal brazier, and she went to prepare hot water, but Xiao Xin followed Li Yue around, "Sister, Xiao Xin is waiting for you to come back and set off the cannon." ”

Li Yue then remembered that she had promised Xiao Xin at noon that she would accompany Xiao Xin to set off the cannon at night, and she didn't want to participate in a palace banquet, but she couldn't come back after so long.
