Chapter 25 He Xiaoxiao

He Xiaoxiao picked up a teapot on the table, filled the cups with tea, and then said to Jiang Cailing, "I am really confident in my skills, otherwise the fifth sister can give it a try." ”

When Jiang Cailing heard this, with a wave of her wrist, she threw the four white jade cups to the ground in unison, He He Xiaoxiao's eyes were quick, and she saw that she was holding two cups in each of her left and right hands, and half a drop of tea was not spilled in the full cup.

He Xiaoxiao handed one of the cups of tea to Jiang Cailing, "Fifth sister thinks I'm okay with this?" ”

Jiang Cailing sat down slowly and looked at He Xiaoxiao with a smile, "It seems that the fourth sister has something to do with me?" ”

"Mingren doesn't say dark words, I know that the fifth sister is not a thing in the pool, and I want to use the fifth sister to get out of my current life."

Jiang Cailing didn't speak, but her eyes looked at He Xiaoxiao again.

"Could it be that the fifth sister dislikes me as an unclean person who lost my virginity before marriage?"

"Could it be that the fifth sister thinks that the old general's family is connected to nine clans, and my life is a blessing in disguise?"

"If I say that the future country is the eldest son of the first emperor Guo Xiao, and it is the country that the little emperor gave up, can the fifth sister be credible?"

Hearing this, Jiang Cailing's apricot eyes moved.

"I once had a dream about these things, in which I married the eldest grandson of the old general, but within a year I was assigned to the frontier by Zhu Lianfa, and later because of the benevolence of the new emperor Guo Xiao, I was able to return to Beijing. There was a warning in my dream, so I deliberately let everyone think that I lost my virginity before marriage, but I didn't expect it to really come true, and the only difference from my dream is you. ”

"What about me in my dreams?"

"In the dream, you were divorced by Gu Xiang, and then married a businessman casually. And Gu Xiang never married, and after the new emperor ascended the throne, he asked the old man to return to his hometown, but he lived the rest of his life in the bamboo forest outside the world. ”

"I have experienced a lot of things in my dreams, I have encountered the pain of killing the nine tribes, I have suffered the pain of exile, and I have also experienced the joy of regaining freedom, like I have spent several lives, I feel bored in this life, but I didn't expect to meet you who are diametrically opposed to the dream, so I always feel that following you, life can be regarded as something new. I protect you thoroughly, and you give me new ideas, which is not a loss for anyone. ”

She didn't know whether this dream was true or not, but she said that Guo Ang wanted to give up the country to Guo Xiao, which was somewhat credible. And she also thinks that she needs this skill.

"I was originally an abandoned son of the He family, they won't care about my life and death, and the news of my marriage to a foreign squire will be spread in the near future, and when the time comes, I will run away on the road and change my name again. I've been like this for the past three years, and no one will remember what I really looked like. ”

"Okay, I'll wait for you."

From morning to evening, the Great Zhou Dynasty was as young as today, and the forces of various countries were eyeing each other, and it was even said that Nanzhao, who had always had the ambition to annex the Great Zhou.

Nanzhao has been a thorn in Jiang Cailing's heart for the past three years, as the deadline of the ten-year truce is getting closer and closer, and the Great Zhou is facing internal and external troubles, Jiang Cailing has made preparations to resist his wolf ambitions. Emperor Nanzhao is only a sixtieth year now, and he is still in good health, and his three most important princes have inherited the ambition and skill of King Nanzhao.

Jiang Cailing didn't want to dress up deliberately, so she wore a Mulan blue palace dress and a white gown, and walked to the sedan chair with a light layer of rouge, but Meng Yun couldn't help frowning when she saw her so plain, and told Bai He to dress up her girl more festively.

"Mother, I'm not plain in this body, you look at the golden peony and these red embroidered shoes, you won't let the royal family blame us."

"What you represent now is not only the daughter of my He family, but also Gu Xiang's fiancΓ©e, what do people think when you dress so plainly?"

Seeing that Jiang Cailing was unwilling, Meng Yun got off the sedan chair and personally accompanied Jiang Cailing to change her clothes, and after a while, a girl in apricot clothes with bright eyes and bright teeth walked out of the house.

Jiang Cailing wore an apricot-colored narrow-sleeved palace dress covered with a snow-colored brocade fur cloak, lined with bright eyebrows, her face was like a peach blossom, the original low-combed bun was now tied on the top of her head by Meng Yun, a double butterfly step was inserted in it, and the butterflies made of pure gold were lifelike, with the pace of walking, the hollow and thin wings were still swinging up and down, as if they were about to fly, and suddenly gave birth to a little girl's bright and lively, plus Jiang Cailing's own temperament is noble, and the two completely different temperaments do not seem contradictory, but make people feel mysterious.

Meng Yun nodded with satisfaction, and when he arrived at the palace, the yellow gate that greeted them from the dismounted monument was still the one with a red mole on his face last time, and the eunuch seemed to know Jiang Cailing, and this time he entered the banquet hall smoothly without any trouble, without taking a long detour.

The He family came neither early nor late, and just half of the courtiers arrived and gathered around to greet and talk.

From a distance, Jiang Cailing saw a girl wearing a bright red suit, the size was about the same as that of an ordinary man, although the complexion was not fair, it was ruddy and shiny, and the high bundle of hair was sparsely gathered in the red auspicious cloud pattern of the hairband, which was different from the squeamishness on the noble girl, this girl made people feel cool at a glance.

This person is General Yuan's eldest daughter, Yuan Gaoyang.

She has heard of Yuan Gaoyang, she is the head of the twelve noble daughters in Luoyang, she is double ten years old, and the person who wants to marry can break through the threshold of the General's Mansion every day, but because she fell in love with Gu Jiming at first sight, she once said that she would not marry in this life.

From a woman's point of view, Yuan Gaoyang and Gu Jiming are still very compatible, especially they also have a cold and arrogant temperament.

"Isn't this Miss He Wu?"

The one who spoke was the squire's daughter, and she was also the girl who sneered at Jiang Cailing at the last Thousand Lantern Meeting.

Jiang Cailing saw her targeting herself repeatedly, so she stepped forward, "This girl, I seem to see you like a hibiscus, a rare beauty, you look very familiar, we have seen it before?" ”

Qian Lan raised a trace of pride on her face, she was very confident in this face, even the previous beauty He Xiangxiang was just a foil under her eyebrows, so she smiled and said, "You remember." ”

"By the way, I remembered it, that day of the spring breeze Lou Oiran election, I have seen the appearance of the Oiran from afar, the country and the city, the elegance is peerless, it is the girl!"

"You!" When Qian Lan heard this, her cheeks flushed with anger, and the young lady's temper came up and raised her hand to greet Jiang Cailing with a mouth.

Jiang Cailing had He Xiaoxiao by her side, so she was naturally not worried that this slap would hit her face, but before He Xiaoxiao could make a move, she held Qian Lan's wrist with her other hand.

"Miss Qian, this palace is not your Qian family's backyard."

The person who spoke was Yuan Gaoyang.

Qian Lanxiu frowned, "Sister Yuan, I'll help you teach this little slut a lesson, if she can't seduce her, how could Gu Xiang fall in love with her!" ”

Yuan Gaoyang has a pair of good-looking eyes, and the eyelids are swept with the shadow of the eyelashes, which is even more profound, which makes the people around him feel a little chilly, "I don't need to be worried about my affairs." ”

With that, he turned and left.

A gust of autumn wind hit, the red belt rolled into the air, and the three thousand green silks fluttered and danced with the wind, leaving only a back that made people look a little stubborn and a little sad.

This Yuan Gaoyang, Jiang Cailing inexplicably felt a little good.

Qian Lan snorted coldly at Jiang Cailing and was about to leave, but Jiang Cailing's body moved and stopped Qian Lan's footsteps.

"What do you want!" Qian Lan impatiently wanted to swing Jiang Cailing away.

"Miss Qian, those words just now were actually said for yourself!"

"What?"

Jiang Cailing knows how to step on people's sore spots, she wants to spend her life safely, but it doesn't mean that she has to swallow her anger and be squeezed by others, so her red lips opened lightly, and she said lightly: "If you like Gu Jiming, admit it frankly, don't act like a messenger of justice, in fact, your heart is dirtier than anyone else." ”

Many noble ladies have heard these words, they are not stupid, and naturally know that Qian Lan also likes Gu Jiming, but because she is the daughter of a waiter, no one will be so straightforward.

Seeing Qian Lan standing in place embarrassed, no one stepped forward to round the field, everyone was fed up with what Qian Lan had done, and when they saw someone exposing her, they felt a little refreshed in their hearts, and they actually felt that He Ling'er, who was inferior to people everywhere, actually had a bit of bold charm and a little good feeling.

The defense of men and women in the Great Zhou Dynasty is not very serious, and the banquet is all seated according to the rank.

"The emperor has arrived! The envoys of Nanzhao, Prince Helian and Princess Hejia, arrived. A shrill voice came, everyone knelt down one after another, Jiang Cailing also knelt down, and a mighty team came from a distance, led by a bright yellow figure with steady steps, followed by two men and women wearing foreign costumes.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live."

"Zhong Aiqing is flat."

Jiang Cailing got up and looked at the prince and princess of Nanzhao.

Helian and Hejia two siblings look alike, I heard that they are dragon and phoenix twins, the similar face is handsome and handsome on Helian's eight-foot man, and beautiful and moving on Hejia's daughter.

Especially Hejia, Nanzhao is in the south of the Great Zhou, it is a scorching summer all year round, and her complexion is much fairer than that of the Central Plains woman, and she has a small twisted braid on her head that is spread out, and she is decorated with royal red beads, which is full of exotic beauty. The eyebrows are like the color of the distant mountains, a pair of black glass-like eyes are shining, and a long skirt with arrow red dark lines and silver jewelry is the Nanzhao royal costume, and the bright color matching looks very energetic.

Jiang Cailing felt a little familiar, and when she saw Helian smile and show two sharp tiger teeth, she realized that she was the unruly woman she met in the market that day.

Helian smiled and gave Guo Ang a courtesy of seeing a distinguished person in Nanzhao, and then said loudly, "This prince came to your country, and along the way he saw a picturesque autumn that my Nanzhao had never had, and I feel that this visit to your country is really a correct decision. On behalf of my father's meaning, this trip is to reconcile the two countries, and secondly, the younger sister Hejia has learned the culture of the Great Zhou Dynasty since she was a child, and intends to choose a good match in your country. ”

It turned out to be a kiss.

"Hejia already has someone he likes in his heart."

Guo Ang didn't expect that Hejia had just come to Luoyang a few days ago, and he actually chose the person he liked, his eyes flashed with surprise, but he behaved without leaking, and asked with a smile whose son.

"It's the prime minister of your country, Gu Jiming."

Everyone couldn't help but gasp, and many people's eyes looked straight at Jiang Cailing, trying to see some dramatic expression on Jiang Cailing's face.

Jiang Cailing didn't live up to expectations, even when Helian said the purpose, she knew the answer, and a look of shock appeared on her face.
