Chapter 111: Qiong Zhi (II)
I'm back from a business trip, it's even late, the number of words is a little less, -_-|||, write more on the May Day holiday and make up for it~
——*——*——
Qiong Zhi turned his head suddenly, and saw that Huaxi's expression was as usual, his eyes were as calm as water, and he couldn't help blinking his apricot eyes, and said suspiciously: "I heard them say that King Chengjun helped you block Gu Lizhu's wine, but is it true?" ”
Huaxi nodded and said, "Hmm." ”
"It seems that he really treats you differently than others......"
"On the second day, there will be a competition, the king of Chengjun is afraid that I will be delayed, and the king of the county will take on the errand given by the emperor, so he will naturally have more snacks......"
Qiong Zhi looked at Huaxi, as if she wanted to find a clue from her face, and asked thoughtlessly: "Don't you love King Chengjun?" ”
Qiong Zhi suddenly asked, which made Huaxi stunned. She subconsciously shook her head.
"Really?" Qiong Zhi's eyes were wide and bright.
"But many of the noble girls in Jing are ...... Brother Cheng," Qiong Zhi's tone was a little unconvinced and resentful.
"Huaxi has no affection for King Chengjun." Huaxi was a little surprised, does Qiongzhi like Yin Chengzong?
Qiong Zhi nodded, "Well, I think you're a good one." is neither humble nor arrogant, and he doesn't talk much...... It's not like those people who put it up when they see me, and they can't wait to say all the good things, or they just change the way to make me happy...... Hmph, if I wasn't the county lord, would they still come up? Where is the arrogance just now, and he does not shy away from Huaxi, an outsider, in front of him, casually venting his dissatisfaction.
This Duanning County Lord has some meaning.
Huaxi relaxed, and said: "Could it be that the county lord just deliberately led Huaxi to walk around in front of the public, to show his favor, so as to see if Huaxi is a person who climbs the dragon and attaches the phoenix?" ”
Qiong Zhi's face was slightly red, and he whispered: "I just want to see if what Brother Xuan said is right......
Huaxi didn't hear clearly, "Huh? What did the county lord say? ”
"No, it's nothing...... Qiong Zhi shook his head and beckoned to Huaxi, "Sit, tell me about the Douxiang Meeting, I accompanied the old lady to the Heyang Palace and didn't come back in time." They all say that you are the first fragrant beauty in Dahua......"
"Fragrant beauty? This title Huaxi can't afford it. ”
Huaxi leaned over and was about to sit down, but Qiong Zhi exclaimed again: "Wait, the stool is cold"
Qiong Zhi moved the gold silk and red satin cushion he was sitting on half out, and patted it with a smile, "You are half and I am half." ”
Huaxi said: "It's okay, Huaxi will sit next to it." ”
Qiong Zhi didn't follow, "Don't, you can make do with me first, and then put it on for you when the maids come back." Don't you look down on me and don't want to sit with me? Qiongzhi pursed her lips.
Letting go of the innate sense of superiority, being able to be intimate with you like this must be extremely rare for Qiong Zhi after being a member of the royal family. It can be seen that she is truly befriended by herself.
"The county lord doesn't dislike Huaxi, Huaxi is already satisfied, how dare he dislike the county lord."
"Don't call me the county lord, call me Qiongzhi." Qiong Zhi pulled Huaxi and asked her to sit down. Huaxi smiled and sat down next to the cushion, for fear of squeezing Qiongzhi.
Qiong Zhi didn't recognize his life, and leaned straight on Huaxi with his back, as if he was relying on a friend for many years, "What kind of incense has you smoked, it smells so good, like an orange ......"
Huaxi was taken aback by her actions unawares, but later saw that she was talking casually, but she also relaxed, and replied with a smile: "Oh, I made it earlier, and the orange was smashed and smoked with bamboo chips." ”
The two chatted with each other, and the two maids came back with tea in their hands.
Qiong Zhi beckoned the maid to put another cushion for Huaxi. Waiting for the maid to bring the cushion, Huaxi and Qiongzhi had been chatting for a long time, and the more they talked, the more they agreed.
Qiong Zhi spoke straightforwardly, not wanting to be as tempting and suggestive as at first. Huaxi found out that she was really cute, and she was a little eccentric, putting the county master in front of outsiders, and if she really agreed with you in private, she really wanted to make friends with you, without being pretentious at all.
Qiongzhi has been pestering Huaxi to ask about making incense, and most likely asked Yin Chengzong about the incense fight. Huaxi covered up Gu Lizhu's cup of water and wine that might be problematic, and the rest of the things about Yin Chengzong's fighting incense also said a lot.
Qiong Zhi listened carefully, her expression was like that of a young girl, Hua Xi was more and more sure that she cared about Yin Chengzong, and couldn't help but quip: "If Qiong Zhi wants to know more about spices, you might as well ask King Chengjun for advice." Most of what Huaxi knows is from books, no more than King Chengjun's own shop, and he will naturally know it when he sees it. ”
Qiong Zhi pouted and said dissatisfiedly: "I asked him, but he only said that he was not available." It's rare to see him go to the shop on weekdays, so where can I ask him...... I also hope that I can know more about this from you, and I can answer him when he talks about it tomorrow. What's the matter, you still don't want to teach me this student? ”
Huaxi said with a smile: "The county lord has a life, Huaxi doesn't dare to disobey." When the time comes, you will be bored, but don't blame me. ”
Qiong Zhi pursed his mouth, "No, let's make a decision"
"Well, that's a deal."
The two were talking and laughing, and they heard a burst of laughter in the garden below, and someone came here.
Qiong Zhi frowned and instructed the maid, "Go and see who's down there?" ”
One of his maids ran down, and came back after a while to report: "It's Jingfu, Jinghe, the two county lords, and the two girls of the Tian family, Miss He, and the two girls of the Mu family who have come over to visit the garden together." ”
"Huh, the two of them are here? I didn't say I wanted to come up, so don't alarm them......" Qiong Zhi said impatiently, suddenly remembered something, and looked at Huaxi, "Those two sisters of your family are here, do you want to see them?" ”
"Say hello if you touch it, forget it if you can't touch it." She would not take the initiative to meet the people of the Mu family.
Qiong Zhi pouted: "Except for Shumin, I really don't look down on the others." Can you mix with Jingfu, Jinghe, and those two girls...... The heart and eye are indispensable...... I see if you can hide or hide."
"Hmm" Huaxi was stunned, answered, lowered his head and took a sip of tea and stopped talking.
Qiong Zhi turned his head and whispered, "Go down and keep an eye on it, and listen to what they have to say." ”
After the maid went down, after a while, the laughter below faded away.
The man had gone far and had not come up the mountain.
The maids came back and said that they were heading in the direction of Xiaomingchi Liao Feng Pavilion.
Qiong Zhi's face showed a mocking look, "Brother Cheng, they are all in Liao Feng Pavilion......"
Xiaoming Pond is adjacent to Taiye Pond and is connected by a path. Huaxi listened to the maid's words, and realized that the princes of the various prefectures did not participate in the lotus meeting, but enjoyed the lotus in Xiaomingchi.
Qiong Zhi leaned back on the porch stool and instructed casually: "This year's lotus party is hosted by my mother, and if something goes wrong, my mother's reputation will be damaged." You go to your sister-in-law and ask her to take a look. There are a lot of people in the garden, don't let people bump into Jingfu, they are not good. ”()
