Chapter Eighty-Five: Jealousy
Chapter Eighty-Five: Jealousy
Ye Anan walked towards the main hall in a sedan chair, and happened to see Tang Huai's sedan chair.
She caught up and smiled enthusiastically: "Master Changgong, what a coincidence." ”
Tang Huai hooked his lips slightly: "Your Royal Highness Princess, let's go together." ”
"Hey."
The two walked side by side, and Ye An'an asked casually, "Did the factory prince see the prince of the northern kingdom today?"
Tang Huai's eyes sank slightly.
"Naturally, Bengu didn't have the slightest curiosity about him." Ye An'an saw that he didn't respond, afraid that he would mistakenly think that he was insincere, and explained, "Chun'er and Qing'er met today, but they said that they were familiar? Hongu pondered that they had never seen a northerner before, so how could they look familiar? Thinking that adults have great powers, maybe they have some ideas, so I want to ask. ”
Tang Huai didn't pay attention to her, turned his finger and said leisurely: "I'll see you later, see for yourself." ”
Ye Anan touched a soft nail, pursed his mouth and stopped talking.
The two got off the sedan chair and entered the hall one after another, and after saluting Emperor Chengqian, they sat down one left and one right.
Ye An'an glanced around His Highness and saw a group of strangely dressed people sitting on the right side.
Even though it's May, their clothes are still on the thick side, with pom-pom accessories on them.
The leader was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy.
He was dressed in a white gown with a thin velvet shawl diagonally across his chest and a silver ring in the middle.
The demeanor and gentlemanly demeanor are in stark contrast to the burly subordinates beside him.
No wonder it stirred up the spring water of so many daughters' homes.
The man seemed to sense something, and looked up at her, revealing a straight face.
Qi Qianyuan?
Ye An's answer was confirmed.
She was skeptical, but not sure.
It was so coincidental that Chun'er and Wang Wanqing both felt familiar with this prince of the northern kingdom, and after thinking about it, the most likely person was the person they met when they went south.
But she didn't expect it to be Qi Qianyuan.
Isn't he from the Qi family?
Why did you become the prince of the northern kingdom again?
It's no wonder that Wang Wanqing couldn't recognize him, when they saw him, he was filthy, with a blue nose and swollen face, and he was still very short, only twelve or thirteen years old.
However, in the past two years, he looks a lot taller, and his facial features are even more handsome.
If it weren't for Ye An'an's impressed face too much, she would almost not recognize it.
Qi Qianyuan saw her expression and knew that she was thinking of herself. With a smile in his eyes, he raised his glass to her.
Ye Anan hid the doubts in his heart, smiled dignifiedly, and picked up the wine glass.
The warm wine entered her stomach, but Ye Anan felt a cold gaze piercing straight at her.
She turned her head to look, only to see Tang Huai leaning back in his chair, drinking expressionlessly.
His thin lips were slightly pursed, his eyes drooped, and his long, thick eyelashes hid his expression.
Looks like something ...... Lonely?
Ye Anan had never seen him look like this, and somehow his heart tingled slightly, a little uncomfortable.
Ye Anan didn't know why he was uncomfortable, but he felt that such a look should not appear on Tang Huai.
He should always proudly hold his head up and look at all beings. Life and death are snatched, in a thought.
Instead of bowing your head and curling up in a corner to lick your wounds alone, as you are now.
Ye An was relieved and depressed, and he drank sullenly for a while.
Under the main hall, Qi Qianyuan took everything into his eyes.
Halfway through the banquet, Emperor Chengqian raised his glass and smiled.
"The envoys of the northern kingdom come to the court, all for the alliance, open the way to drain the stream, the business gang communicates, and there will be no war within a hundred years, this is the blessing of the people, and the blessing of my great yuan!"
Everyone raised their glasses and shouted: "The holy blessing is thousands of miles, bless the common people, the dragon is mighty, and the country and the people are safe!"
Emperor Chengqian smiled and drank it all: "If you don't get drunk today, you won't return!"
Qi Qianyuan stood up and raised his glass and said loudly.
"Your Majesty, there is one more thing for the envoy to come this time."
Emperor Chengqian put down his wine glass: "Oh? The prince pleases. ”
"The northern kingdom is willing to marry Dayuan, ask to marry Her Royal Highness the princess, and forge a friendship between the two countries and a hundred years of friendship."
As soon as these words came out, there were whispers in the hall.
Tang Huai looked at Qi Qianyuan, his eyes were calm, and the wine glass in his hand cracked.
Emperor Chengqian frowned slightly, and then said with a smile: "The prince doesn't know, there is only this one baby daughter under my knees, she is still young, and she really can't bear to marry so early. Come, Prince I have a drink!"
It is already a great respect for the emperor of one country to toast the envoys of other countries, so that even if the request is refused, it will not be embarrassed and hurt the faces of both parties.
Qi Qianyuan didn't seem to be the slightest bit disappointed about the refusal to marry, smiled slightly, and returned to Emperor Chengqian.
After the state banquet was dispersed, Ye Anan returned to the dormitory to take off his heavy clothes, and took a bath before breathing a sigh of relief.
Chun'er combed her slightly damp long hair, and said curiously: "Your Highness, today the prince of the northern kingdom actually asked the emperor to marry you, can this be done?"
Wang Wanqing ironed her clothes and said lightly: "It shouldn't be possible." The princesses of previous dynasties would only marry their relatives when they sought peace when the country was in decline, and most of the time they selected the appropriate age from the clan to marry. Our Dayuan is now strong and prosperous, so naturally there is no need to do this. What's more, there is only one princess under the knees of the saint, and she has always been very fond of her, how could she let the princess marry and suffer in that wild place. I don't know what the prince of the northern kingdom thinks, but he can open his mouth widely. ”
"If it doesn't work, it's good." Chun'er complained, "I heard that the northern country is cold, it snows all year round, and there is a shortage of materials, not to mention Her Royal Highness the princess, the slave maid can't stand it even if she thinks about it." ”
"Okay, don't criticize the prince of a country, be careful that trouble comes out of your mouth."
Ye Anan drank a lot of wine tonight, but now he is sleepy, his eyes are almost open, and he yawns and goes to bed.
Seeing that she was not in a hurry at all, Chun'er scratched her head, Her Royal Highness the princess was not in a hurry, it seemed that she was really fine.
Tang House
Tang Huai looked at the bronze mirror.
The person in the mirror has delicate eyebrows, a high nose bridge, and a young face, but Tang Huai feels a little tired.
He stroked the corners of his eyes and asked slowly:
"Dequan, do you think our family is old?"
Dequan was stunned, "How can an adult think so?" It's only twenty-five now, and it's a great time. ”
It's twenty-five......
Tang Huai lowered his eyes.
At tonight's banquet, he watched Ye Anan and Qi Qianyuan toast to each other.
Both of them are sixteen or seventeen years old, their eyes are full of stars, their identities are noble, and they have a great future.
So well-matched, so dazzling......
He suddenly felt that he was very far away from Ye An'an, so far away that he couldn't catch her at all.
Tang Huai felt as uncomfortable as being pricked by a needle, and he was about to run out of breath.
Dequan knows his mood best, and seeing that he is depressed, he thinks he was stimulated tonight.
He thought about it, took a jar of fine Cuitao wine from the warehouse, and said with a smile.
"The capital is drunk to relieve a thousand sorrows, why don't you try it?"
——————————
Many years later, Tang Huai sighed: Our family shouldn't have drunk that jar of wine back then!
Ye Anan smiled: Drink well, drink well~
