Chapter 135: Uninvited Guest
Jin Shaoming remembered the scene when she secretly ran to paint last night, and felt that Mu Lingyun had put a lot of thought into it.
"I'll take a look!" Hou Shaoqing also came over to take a look.
I saw this ink bamboo painting, the bamboo leaves are like a sword, ready to go, the strong and steep bamboo poles, in the combination of dark and light ink, give people a sense of chic and concise, high wind and bright festival.
"Yay!" Hou Shaoqing also praised and gave Mu Lingyun a thumbs up.
"Of course, the best thing I draw is this ink bamboo!" Mu Lingyun himself was quite satisfied, compared to the dark cuisine, this painting was naturally particularly pleasing to the eye, and Mu Lingyun felt that he had given the right gift.
Jin Shaoming couldn't put down the painting and prepared to treasure it.
"Lord, why doesn't this painting hang up? In this way, everyone can catch a glimpse of the princess's masterpieces. Hou Shaoqing asked puzzled. If it were him, it should be framed with great fanfare for everyone to enjoy.
"No, the princess's paintings can only be enjoyed secretly by this king alone." Jin Shaoming said seriously, this is a painting specially made for him by Mu Lingyun, he regards it as a treasure, so he naturally wants to hide it.
Mu Lingyun smiled embarrassedly, she didn't expect that such an ordinary painting of hers could make him so precious.
At this time, the guard at the door ran in out of breath, lowered his head and said respectfully to Jin Shaoming: "Lord Wang, the Oiran Peony girl of Wanhualou is here!" ”
Hearing this person's name, Jin Shaoming's face was extremely ugly, and he brushed his sleeves and said, "No! ”
For this uninvited guest, Jin Shaoming didn't even want to see him at all.
Mu Lingyun's delicate red lips moved, and said, "Why don't you see it?" I think it should be! ”
Those who come are guests, how can there be a reason to drive people away. Besides, the more ghosts in his heart, the more reluctant he would be to see them, so Mu Lingyun wanted to let Peony come in instead, and by the way, see what Jin Shaoming's reaction was.
"Yun'er, why are you ......" Jin Shaoming frowned.
Jin Shaoming didn't know why Mu Lingyun wanted that person to come in, she knew that Peony had a crush on him, wouldn't it be embarrassing in vain?
Mu Lingyun didn't answer his words, but sat down on the chair leisurely. Hou Shaoqing was on the side, seeing that the faces of the two people were a little wrong, and he felt even more strange, he guessed that it was very likely that the relationship between this peony and Jin Shaoming was extraordinary.
At this time, Peony Yingying walked in, she wore a red dress today, her spirit was flying, a pair of hooking phoenix eyes were charming, her charming appearance, glamorous and beautiful, really worthy of the words "peony in flowers".
Peony took a step forward and owed Jin Shaoming and Mu Lingyun. At this time, her red lips lightly said: "Lord, princess, Peony came to visit today to congratulate the prince on his birthday!" ”
The appearance of the peony suddenly made Hou Shaoqing look straight, it was not the first time he had seen the peony, but since he was with He Rouge, he rarely stepped into the land of the green building again.
Jin Shaoming just stood and didn't say a word, and the expression on his face couldn't tell whether he was happy or angry, Mu Lingyun felt that other people's peonies were here to celebrate his birthday, and it was not good to leave them like this.
Mu Lingyun smiled slightly and said, "Oh, thank you Peony girl!" ”
"Princess, the last time I went to Wanhualou, Peony saw you, but at that time, Princess, you were dressed as a man, and Peony didn't notice it." Peony said as he turned his gaze to Jin Shaoming's body, "At that time, Peony only saw the prince, and he also presented flowers to the prince!" ”
The reason why Peony came today was not because of a whim, but because Jin Shaoming went to Wanhualou last time, which made Peony mistakenly think that Jin Shaoming was obsessed with her, so she wanted to try to tease Jin Shaoming's heart again.
Mu Lingyun wasn't angry, but when she heard this, she was immediately annoyed, and Peony obviously said this sentence to her on purpose.
"Peony, are you here today to talk about the last time you sent flowers?" Jin Shaoming finally spoke, but his tone was very cold, which made Peony very disappointed.
"Of course not, I said, I'm here to celebrate my birthday." After Peony finished speaking, she turned her head to her maid and said, "Xiaoyu, help me bring up that calligraphy!" ”
"Yes, Miss!" The little jade put the calligraphy on the table and unfolded it for everyone to see.
Hou Shaoqing couldn't hold back his curiosity, walked over, and saw the words on the font, silkworm head and goose tail, vigorous, dense and dignified, stroke by stroke, showing strong pen power.
"This is Zhao Yancheng's official book, I know that the prince has a deep study of calligraphy and painting, and also likes the works of celebrity painters, and accidentally got Zhao Yancheng's "Qingshan Dwelling Post", so I took it to borrow flowers and offer Buddha, and gave it to the prince!" Peony smiled lightly, her smile was charming, her hot gaze kept falling on Jin Shaoming's face, and she never moved away.
Jin Shaoming didn't even glance at the copybook, because with Mu Lingyun there, it was impossible for him to show the slightest liking for the copybook.
Peony stood next to her, paying attention to Jin Shaoming's expression, she felt that Jin Shaoming didn't take her to heart at all, and such an indifferent attitude made her feel even more uncomfortable.
At this time, the corners of Mu Lingyun's lips hooked slightly, and said with a smile: "The peony girl really has a heart, then I will thank the peony girl for the prince." ”
Mu Lingyun thought that people were guests and came to give gifts, she couldn't be too small-bellied, she was a princess, and she couldn't lose her identity.
Suddenly, Mu Lingyun turned his head to Bihong and said, "Bihong, take the copybook!" ”
Bihong followed her words, carefully rolled up the notebook, and was about to take it down, but who knows, at this time, Jin Shaoming opened his mouth to speak, and made a big move, "Slow!" ”
Everyone focused their attention on Jin Shaoming's body. Jin Shaoming walked over, took the notebook from Bihong's hand, and put the notebook in Hou Shaoqing's hand.
Hou Shaoqing was dumbfounded, he liked this calligraphy very much, yes, but this was given to the prince by someone's peony, even if he wanted it, he couldn't accept it.
"Lord Wang, what does this mean?" Hou Shaoqing pulled the corners of his mouth, he was just a melon-eating audience, but he didn't expect Jin Shaoming to put this hot potato on his hand.
"Scholar Hou likes the calligraphy of celebrities more than me, especially Zhao Yancheng's, and he is deeply studied, of course I want to give you the calligraphy!" Jin Shaoming said it very logically.
Mu Lingyun felt that Jin Shaoming's behavior was too hurtful, after all, it was a birthday gift given to him by a girl, how could he give it to someone else?
"Yutang ......" Mu Lingyun couldn't help but go up, wanting to say something.
But the peony girl was already trembling with anger, her face was white and red for a while, and she felt that Jin Shaoming was deliberately humiliating her.
I knew that I shouldn't have come here, but she still had a glimmer of hope for Jin Shaoming, and she didn't believe that Jin Shaoming didn't have any friendship for her.
"Lord Wang, if you don't like it, you can throw it away, why humiliate me like this?" Peony's eyes were red, tears welled up, and she looked pitiful.
This kind of appearance that I feel pitiful when I see it, even Mu Lingyun feels that she is very aggrieved.
"I'm sorry, this king already has the ink and bamboo painting sent by the princess. So, of course, this poster is for people who appreciate it more. Jin Shaoming's words were there.
The peony girl was resentful and walked away.
After Peony left, Hou Shaoqing took the notebook again and asked Jin Shaoming in disbelief: "Lord Wang, do you really plan to give me this notebook?" ”
With such a valuable gift, Hou Shaoqing didn't dare to accept it rashly, and he was afraid that Jin Shaoming would regret it when he turned back.
"Of course! I will regret what this king has said! Jin Shaoming's eyes were firm. Originally, he didn't plan to accept the peony things, but since Hou Shaoqing liked it, he simply gave it to Hou Shaoqing with adult beauty.
Hou Shaoqing breathed a sigh of relief, "Then I'll rest assured, it's better to be respectful than to obey my fate, I'll accept it!" ”
He thought that Jin Shaoming would say that just now because he was deliberately angry with the peony, but he didn't expect to really give it to him.
"Hehe, Master Hou, you have picked up a big bargain this time!" Mu Lingyun covered his mouth and smiled, thanks to the timely arrival, otherwise Jin Shaoming's temper might have torn up this calligraphy on the spot.
"I see, the princess has picked up a big bargain! After all, it is not uncommon for a man like Wang Ye to be infatuated and single-minded! Hou Shaoqing said with a smile. Today he received the notebook given to him by Jin Shaoming, and he was happy to pat Jin Shaoming on the back.
"Okay, don't get cheap and sell well!" Jin Shaoming raised his eyebrows, he also knew Hou Shaoqing's character well, if he hadn't given him calligraphy and paintings, he wouldn't have praised him so hard.
Mu Lingyun smiled and said nothing, sometimes, it was quite interesting to watch Jin Shaoming and Hou Shaoqing tease each other like this. Before, everyone was rumored that the two of them had a habit of breaking their sleeves, and it was not groundless, anyone who saw the scene of the two of them bickering would feel that the relationship between the two of them was extraordinary.
Jin Shaoming suddenly walked over, grabbed Mu Lingyun's hands, and stared at her affectionately: "Yun'er, I don't like anyone, I only love you alone." ”
The reason why he treated Peony so indifferently just now was that he didn't want Mu Lingyun to misunderstand anything. He also knew that women were easily jealous, and Jin Shaoming just wanted to tell her and reassure her about him.
"Okay, I know, Lord Wang!" Mu Lingyun smiled with crooked eyebrows.
Before in Wanhualou, maybe she still thought that he might have an old affection for Peony, after all, Peony is better looking than her, and charming, a man will like a woman like Peony. But today's Jin Shaoming's various performances made Mu Lingyun very relieved.
"Haha, sure enough, no matter how fragrant the wildflowers outside are, they are not as fragrant as the house flowers!" Hou Shaoqing shook his jade bone fan and said with a smile.
"Alright, sycophant!" Jin Shaoming said and gently knocked Hou Shaoqing's head.
