CHAPTER XXXIII

No matter how reluctant Qu Qingyan was, he was still dragged out by Qu Qingwen on the day of the Shangyuan Festival.

I don't like how to socialize, and I may not be in the same department in the future, and the relationship between the same department has always been delicate, and whether it is an enemy or a friend depends on communication and skill.

Qu Qingwen looked at this younger brother who vowed to become a leader, and always felt that he thought about all this too easily.

Qu Qingyan naturally didn't know that Qu Qingwen was slandering her so much in her heart, she thought of Yang Jianxian and thought of that afternoon when her hands and feet were cold, she was like a fish pressed on the chopping board, waiting to be killed and chopped.

She has been thinking about countermeasures these days, thinking about how to make herself not too passive, she thinks about it and feels that the handle needs to be reciprocal, and she must find a way to find the weakness of the other party.

The carriage was pressed against the stone road, making a slight sound, and the four people in the carriage hung their heads, Qu Qingxi became silent since listening to Qu Qingyan's words that day, and Qu Qinghong has always been the most non-existent of the four.

The car was too dull, Qu Qing coughed lightly, and didn't care whether the eyes of several people fell on him: "Kaifeng sent a message, after the first month, grandmother and they will move with all the domestic servants, grandfather has already explained, let us go to Zhaotangzi Hutong in a few days to see what else needs to be added." ”

Is it out of the New Year? Qu Qingyan's eyes flashed, and he thought of the series of dreams, and everyone in the inner house seemed to have arrived in the capital before the New Year.

The carriage was moving more and more slowly, and when it was still some way from the main street, it was completely motionless, and several people jumped out of the carriage and walked towards the agreed place.

The Shangyuan Festival in the capital has always been lively, as soon as a few people turn into the main street, they see that both sides of the road are full of vendors hanging all kinds of lanterns, and every stall is crowded with people, pushing and shoving, blocking the road to the point of impassability.

The four of them were almost scattered by the crowd several times, Qu Qingyan tightened his cloak and followed Qu Qingwen firmly, and trekked to the restaurant agreed in advance.

Yang Jianxian's friends were not only the four members of the Qu family, but as soon as they went upstairs, they heard that the private room was very lively, Xiao Er knocked on the door, and there was a sound of footsteps, and the door opened to reveal Yang Jianxian's smiling face.

"Brother Dunmin, just as I mentioned you, you have arrived, we really have a tacit understanding."

Qu Qingwen smiled and led the three of them into the door, and the eyes of the people in the room instantly fell on the four of them.

There were five men and four women in the room, and only Jiang Jinchang and Qu Qingyan had met a few times.

"These are a few sons from the newly appointed Left Waiter of the Criminal Department." Yang Jianxian pulled people to the round table and beckoned a few people to sit down while introducing them to everyone.

Qu Qingwen was not in a hurry to sit down, and the smile on his face became extremely gentle: "In the next Qu Qingwen, the word Dunmin, you can just call me Brother Dunmin." ”

He had inherited the good looks of the Liu family, and at this time, the gentle and gentle smile directly made several women in the room blush.

After a greeting and the four of them sat down, Yang Jianxian introduced a few people in the room to the Qu family brothers.

Except for Jiang Jinchang, one is the eldest son of Lu Hanlin's family, and Yang Jianxian is a classmate of Guozijian, named Lu Jingrun, and the word is better; One is Xu Yihang, the second grandson of the Zhan Shi Xu family, whose name is Yaping, and he is also a classmate.

Only the man next to Xu Yihang, he called him Yu Gongzi, and he was extremely respectful in his words.

Several female relatives did not introduce them one by one, and Qu Qingyan could hear that two of them were young ladies from Yang Mansion, one was Jiang Jinchang's sister, and the other was Xu Yihang's sister.

The four of them sat together in an orderly manner, slightly hanging their heads and smiling at the corners of their lips, as if they were serious about listening to the conversation of the audience, nodding slightly from time to time.

Qu Qingyan, as a man, couldn't keep staring at a few young ladies who had not left the pavilion, so he glanced at it and withdrew his gaze.

Yang Jianxian is good at dancing with long sleeves, Qu Qingwen is not reckless, and within a quarter of an hour, the two of them talked about speculation with Yu Gongzi, Qu Qingyan listened to a few words with his ears, and faintly heard the words drought and snow disaster.

This is a few people discussing current affairs.

Da Ming Shizi has always liked to discuss current affairs and national policies in restaurants, and it is understandable that the atmosphere is so good, but what makes Qu Qingyan strange is Qu Qingwen's attitude towards Yu Gongzi.

Although Qu Qingwen smiled humbly on his face, he was extremely arrogant in his heart, even in front of Du Zhiheng, he rarely showed off his talents, what happened today?

She moved her eyes to the young man Yu, and saw that he was dressed in a right-handed robe, with a dragon tonic on his chest and back and shoulders, a jade leather belt around his waist, and a black gauze wing crown on his head.

Her heart froze, and before she could withdraw her gaze, she met the other party's gaze in mid-air, and the cold gaze of Yu Gongzi swept over her face and then retracted, the other party seemed to be extraordinarily casual, but Qu Qingyan was instantly wet with sweat.

came with the son of the Zhan family in the Zhan Mansion, how could the civilian clothes not be concealed, and the identity of this person ......

She quickly withdrew her gaze, and listened as carefully as the others in the room, occasionally seconding the proposal.

Shangyuan Festival, enjoy the lanterns.

The later the time, the more lively the street became, only the nobles here did not dare to propose to go to the street, and two pots of tea were used, and in the end Xu Yihang whispered in the ear of Yu Gongzi.

The private room was lit with fine silk charcoal, warm and warm, Qu Qingyan hoped that he could stay in the room all the time, after all, this kind of opportunity to see the prince up close was too limited.

If she wants to become a leader, she must always have the opportunity to figure out how to deal with people and things up close, and there is no better opportunity than to use the next Ninety-Five Venerable to practice.

Yu Gongzi stood up first, and when he got up, an attendant immediately stepped forward and handed over the cloak, his face was as cold as jade, and his faint gaze swept over him made people subconsciously want to hold their breath, Qu Qingyan quietly followed a few brothers downstairs together.

"Fourth brother, go slower."

Merging into the crowd on the street, a group of people were dispersed almost instantly, Qu Qingyan was tiptoeing to find Qu Qingwen's figure, and suddenly felt that her wrist was pulled up, and she hurriedly turned around and saw Yang Jianxian appear beside her at some point.

Her arm jerked, "Young Master Yang." ”

"The fourth brother called me Brother Yi'an last time, why is he so polite today? Fourth brother comes with me, I have a few words to say to you. ”

Yang Jianxian's big hand grabbed her wrist again, and pulled her into the alley without refusal.

"Brother Yi An has something to say." The contrast between the cold alley and the hustle and bustle of the main street was too stark, and if she could, she didn't want to have any more opportunities with the person in front of her.

"The fourth brother wants to enter the national prison?"

The sentence that did not turn around instantly drilled into Qu Qingyan's ears, making her raise her eyes suddenly, and saw that the other party's eyes in the candle flame were extremely deep, so that she couldn't help but raise a trace of defense.

"Two days ago, Master Qu had already handed Yinsheng's candidate to Guozijian, and that candidate was not you."

"I know."

"If the fourth brother wants to enter the country, I can help you ask your grandfather for a place to donate tribute, but the fourth brother needs to do something to me."
