Chapter 128: Bai Qiuran declares war
In order to celebrate the "first pot of gold" raised, Baili Gardenia specially held a small banquet and posted to Jin'an, Bo Yan and Bai Qiuran, inviting them to come over for a small gathering.
Several people accepted the post, shook their heads helplessly, and packed up and went to the banquet with a heart of coaxing children.
The small banquet is set up in a pavilion on the edge of the North Lake, the scenery here is very beautiful and secluded, the time is close to summer, the climate is warmer, even at night is not very cold, this place is very suitable.
As soon as the unitary time arrived, several people gathered here, because it was a small banquet and acquaintances, everyone was dressed as usual, and they did not bring an entourage.
Baili Yu beckoned everyone to sit down, smiled, pointed to the melons and fruits on the table and said: "Don't think I'm stingy, in a special period, I am shy in my pocket, these things are still bought with the private money I saved on weekdays." β
Jin An lifted his clothes and sat down, and glanced at Baili Gardenia: "In this case, why do you still have this small banquet, it's not like your usual style." β
Baili Yu smiled, his gaze fell on Bo Yan for a moment, and then looked at Bai Qiuran on the side.
Bai Qiuran hurriedly said: "Since the iron rooster is willing to pluck his feathers, it doesn't matter what he is for, Baili, you have chosen a good place, it is very secluded." β
Bo Rouge looked around, and in the distance was the orange-red sunset, reflected in the lake, so calm and warm.
Bo Yan's eyebrows softened, sniffed the good smell of grass in the air, and smiled slightly: "I didn't expect that there would be such a place in the imperial capital, or that the prince of Baili would look for a place." β
Baili Yu won Bo Yan's praise, his eyes lit up, he straightened up, and said with pride on his face: "That's, how can there be a place in this imperial capital that I haven't walked!" There is no one in this place, and the scenery is good, which is suitable for our small gathering today. β
Jin An took a sip of tea, and glanced at Baili Gardenia coldly: "Heh, such a place can be found for you, but it is worthy of the four words of idleness." β
Baili Yu choked and glanced at Jin An angrily: "You still say!" You can't save you when you die! Dare to come and eat and drink for nothing! β
Jin An smiled and said provocatively: "Since you have made a post, why don't I dare to come?" β
Baili Yu snorted: "It's just polite, you still take it seriously." β
Seeing this, Bo Yan smiled helplessly and shook his head, Baili Gardenia's child's temperament really doesn't know when he can change, and he blames Lord Baili and Mrs. Baili for bothering him so much.
β¦β¦
It is said that it is a small banquet, but it is more like a tea party, a few people warm a few pots of wine, on the table full of melons, fruits and pastries to talk about the world, acquaintances get together, that is, it is good to talk, the sky is getting late, the sun finally completely disappeared in the mountains, Baili Gardenia hung the yarn lamp that has been prepared long ago, the gazebo is illuminated, the breeze blows through the gauze tent in the pavilion, and reflects the outside of the lake full of waves but adds a bit of leisure and leisure.
Different from the last time the prince's mansion gathered, this time Bai Qiuran did not deliberately get close to Bo Yan, but pulled Jin'an to the side to chat, Bo Yan looked at the back of the two people talking and felt a little sour, so he turned his head and went to the other side of the pavilion and looked up to look at the murals in the pavilion.
"Look at what those paintings do, beware of your eyes hurting."
The voice of Baili Gardenia sounded behind him.
Bo Yan retracted his gaze and slowly lowered his head, and sure enough, his eyes hurt a little.
Baili Yu came to stand still in front of Bo Yan and blocked the candlelight above her head for her: "Is this better?" β
Bo Yan felt a shadow cast above his head, and felt much better in a moment, so he nodded, and after a moment of silence, he felt that Baili Gardenia was a little closer to himself, so he took a step back, opened some distance from Baili Gardenia, and raised his head to face the shining eyes of Baili Gardenia.
"I've already received your money, but by the way, you lent it to me! I'm going to pay it back in the future! Baili Yu patted his chest and reassured.
Looking at Baili Gardenia's childish appearance, Bo Yan smiled slightly: "It's easy to say, just treat me as doing business with you, if you make it, you will naturally pay me back, if not, it's just that." "Having said this, Bo Yan does not have full confidence, speaking of which he is just borrowing flowers to offer Buddha, and it is Jin'an who really helps Baili Gardenia, but this matter cannot be told to Baili Gardenia for the time being, so as not to be embarrassed by Lord Baili and Jin'an.
Baili Gardenia was high-spirited: "Then treat it as if the two of us do business together, if it becomes not only to repay your money, but also to have your harvest!" β
Bo Yan but smiled silently, in his heart, Baili Yu's heart is more childish than Zhao Xueyan, and it is also cute and tight.
"You don't believe I can do it?" Baili Yu asked anxiously.
"Of course I believed."
Baili Yu got the reply and smiled: "That's good!" There was silence, and his voice slowed down: "If you believe in me like this, I will not fail you!" β
Bo Yan took a sip of tea and nodded.
Baili Yu stared at Bo Yan for a while, scratched his head, and said, "Also, there is one more thing...... I want to ask you ......."
Bo Yan looked at Baili Gardenia suspiciously: "What's the matter?" β
Baili Yu pursed her lips and thought for a moment, looked in the direction of Jin'an and Bai Qiuran, took a deep breath, raised her head and looked directly at Bo Yan: "Did you tell the queen that it was not your intention to marry here, and you are willing to reconcile with Si Nian one day?" β
Bo Yan was stunned, he didn't expect Baili Yu to suddenly ask like this, he ...... How did you know about this?
Seeing that Bo Yan didn't answer, Baili Yu continued to ask more and more anxiously: "Yes and no?" You...... Don't like Si Nian? β
Bo Yan came back to his senses at this time: "You...... How would you know. β
This is an admission that said that?! Baili Yu's eyes lit up: "So, do you really not mind if Xiaobai and Si Nian get married?" β
Bo Yan's breath stagnated: "You mean the two of them ......"
Baili Yu said: "These are all things that Xiaobai told me, the queen mother intends to marry the two of them, but you have just passed the house, and it is a little inappropriate to marry a flat wife so soon......"
What Baili Yu said later, Bo Yan didn't listen to it, she subconsciously clenched her fists, and she didn't know what her nails were embedded in her palms...... Isn't this something I had expected a long time ago, it's ridiculous, after hearing this news, I would even ......
Another place
Jin An and Bai Qiuran sat opposite each other, and after the two glanced at each other, Jin An said leisurely: "You ...... today." Got something to say? β
Bai Qiuran pursed his lips, turned his head to look at Bai Li Yu and Bo Yan who were talking, settled down, and said, "Let's get married." β
Jin An was stunned, his pupils dilated instantly because of shock, and he looked at Bai Qiuran in disbelief, from birth to now, this should be the most amazing news he has heard.
Bai Qiuran looked at Jin An's expression, blinked his eyes, and secretly cheered himself up: "What? You don't want to? β
Jin An straightened his body and narrowed his eyes slightly: "Why did you suddenly ...... Did the Queen Mother tell you to say that? β
"The queen mother mentioned it to me, but this is my own meaning, I want to marry you." Bai Qiuran straightened his chest, and said frankly and fearlessly, which was quite a bit like going to the battlefield to kill the enemy.
Jin An was a little panicked for a while, he was really panicked, and he glanced at the frank Bai Qiuran a little confused and at a loss, not understanding how things could have developed to this point, how could Xiaobai be to himself?
In fact, it's no wonder that Jin An is slow to react, it's really that the two of them have gotten along with each other over the years in exactly the same way as brothers, and Bai Qiuran has only recently reacted to his heart for Jin'an, yes, it's understandable that Jin An didn't notice it, and now that Bai Qiuran said it so suddenly, Jin An naturally panicked.
Bai Qiuran clenched his fists and looked at Jin An fixedly: "What do you think?" β
Jin An was still in the afterglow of panic, dumbfounded for a while, and the degree of panic caused by Bai Qiuran's confession to himself was almost equivalent to Baili Yu wanting to pull his sleeve...... Or rather, the former is even more shocked than the latter!
Jin An pondered the wording: "This ...... I never thought you'd ...... Is it because my mother insisted on it? β
Bai Qiuran shook her head: "The queen mother does have this intention, but if I don't want to, who can persecute me, the queen mother said that you said, as long as I am willing, you will marry me." β
Jin An raised his forehead: "Xiaobai, I'm afraid you have some misunderstanding about this, why I said this......"
"I know, you just don't think I can say yes."
Jin An was stunned, since she knew, why did she ......
Bai Qiuran pursed her lips again: "I didn't know that I had this heart for you earlier, until I saw you get married, I knew that I liked you and was willing to marry you." β
Jin An is a little embarrassed, he understands Bai Qiuran's heart, has always been a boy, since birth has never said love to anyone, although she is very arrogant, but also has a daughter's heart, the city has a great courage to say this, if others say these words to themselves, I am afraid they will not care so much, but this person is Bai Qiuran, he can't be so casual, but if this matter is not clear, it will be endless.
Jin An gritted his teeth and was ruthless: "But I never thought about ......"
"You like her," Bai Qiuran looked back and snorted angrily in the direction of Bo Yan: "But what about her?" She doesn't have you in her heart. β
With just one sentence, Jin An was speechless, silent for a long time, Jin An laughed at himself, when did he fall to this step of the world.
"She doesn't have me in her heart," Jin An lowered his voice, a little depressed, a little helpless: "But I don't care......"
Bai Qiuran's eyes widened in disbelief, he couldn't believe that it was Jin An he knew who said this, did he care about Bo Yan so far? Such a woman who married for the second time and made Jin'an a laughing stock for everyone, Jin'an turned out!
Bai Qiuran suddenly had a trace of anger and refused to admit defeat in his heart, he and Jin'an grew up since childhood, but they couldn't beat Bo Yan for half a point!
With a little arrogance, Bai Qiuran raised his chin and said, "Oh? She doesn't have you in her heart, and you are still willing to let her be your wife, so I am willing to marry you without me in your heart, which is not inappropriate. β
Jin An frowned, and his voice sank: "Xiaobai, don't make trouble." β
Bai Qiuran's fighting spirit had been completely aroused, and he was not talking to Jin'an at the moment, he stood up abruptly and walked towards Bo Yan, and said in a loud voice: "Crown Princess, the queen wants to marry me to Si Nian, and I also agree, what do you think!" β
