Chapter 39: Coincidence

After Ye Qianmo and Murong Chen finished lunch in Lingyun Houfu, they went to play on the street together, and met Xiaoba, who was rushing to Lingyun Houfu, and after learning what happened at home, Ye Qianmo hurriedly said goodbye to the two.

Because Xiao Ba was in a hurry, Ye Qianmo only knew that Hongying was said to have stolen something, but when she saw the current situation, she found that it was much more serious. Green willow gently wiped the blood from the corner of Hongying's mouth, "Does it hurt." "It doesn't hurt," Hongying was about to grin, but the wound at the corner of her mouth was touched, and she hissed bitterly, "It hurts!" I didn't steal. ”

Green Willow was also distressed, Hongying was a year or two younger than her, and she treated him as a sister. "It's okay, I know our red tassel doesn't like that thing." The mouth of the green willow is even more invisible.

Ye Qianmo looked at the two of them, and saw that they were all skin injuries, so she was slightly relieved, and turned her head to stare at Xia's to suppress her anger, "How can you prove that Hongying stole your hairpin?" ”

Mama Song didn't wait for Xia Shi to speak, and hurriedly said, "The hairpin fell from her." In fact, Mama Song couldn't figure this out, it is said that at the beginning she said that Hongying was a thief and just wanted to find a scapegoat, but she didn't think that this hairpin was on her. However, fortunately, seeing Xia's satisfied look, Mama Song breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.

"Where's the hairpin?"

"Show it to the eldest lady, and it will prevent some people from saying that I am looking for fault." Xia opened his mouth leisurely. However, when Mama Song took out the hairpin, her face suddenly changed, and she glared at Mama Song fiercely, her face was blue and white.

Shen Lan looked at these hairpins and exclaimed, "Little Miss, these are your mother's things." ”

Ye Qianmo smiled, this is interesting, the thief has seen it as a thief, and the worst of others is to be justified, this is a matter of course.

Mama Song knew something bad as soon as she heard Shen Lan's exclamation, she was so frightened that she staggered, and the hairpin in her hand was about to fall to the ground. Look closely, these hairpins are all of the best, and the carvings are extremely exquisite, especially the white hosta that has been engraved in the form of a phoenix is the best. Vivid, ready to fly.

"Qianmo, this is all a misunderstanding...... Ye Qianmo interrupted Xia, "I don't know why my mother's things came here?" If I'm not mistaken, they should be in the library. ”

"A few days ago, I sorted out things, and there were more or less things in a mess, so I sent someone to put them in the warehouse, and someone came to ......."

How could it be that there were only these things that were put in less, Ye Qianmo asked, "Now I can take the red tassel away." Before she could answer, Ye Qianmo spoke to the green willow, "Bring the red tassel and let's go back." ”

Looking at the back of Ye Qianmo and the others leaving, Xia's teeth itched with hatred, kicked Mama Song, who was still lying on the ground, and scolded: "It's not enough to succeed, it's more than a thing to lose." ”

Mama Song pulled Xia's sleeve, "Madam......"

"Fuck off." Xia shook off her hand and left without looking back. Mama Li, who was still following her, glanced at Mama Song, who was sobbing and sobbing, with a hint of a smile in her eyes.

Back in the courtyard, Ye Qianmo settled down Hongying before remembering Xiaoba, who came with them. Everyone also looked at the pretty little girl who hadn't said a word since she came through the door.

Xiaoba respectfully stepped forward and saluted, "The slave maid is the eighth in the family, and my father named me Xiaohachi." A few days before the eldest young master left, the slave maid entered the general's mansion, there were many children in the family, the father offended the city again, and the mother was sick urgently. ”

Ye Qianmo bowed her head, thought for a moment, looked at her and said, "Don't go back, just stay here, I will talk to Steward Zhang." ”

Xiao Ba's face showed joy, and he responded happily and retreated. She was also worried just now, afraid that she would be caught by Mama Song when she went back. If you are kicked out, the family does not know what to do.

After Xiaoba left, Ye Qianmo also sent Shen Lan back to the room, and when she came back, Hongying was already asleep. Lu Liu sat on the edge of the bed and helped her tuck the quilt, but still asked the question that had been confusing her, "Miss, didn't you go to see Marquis Jing, why didn't you ask about his injuries?" "What Miss said in the Hou Mansion was always irrelevant, and she didn't mention the Hou Ye's injury from beginning to end.

"There's someone else next to you."

"It's the Seven Princes! But...... This lets him know what it matters, and besides, we still have a relationship with him. ”

Ye Qianmo thought for a moment and whispered, "Because they are familiar strangers...... The few people who were with Jing Yixuan, although they tried their best to behave naturally, also reflected their wariness of Murong Chen everywhere.

At the end of the day, the wind rose, and the temperature dropped considerably.

In the backyard of Lingyun Houfu, a man in a green shirt was standing quietly looking into the distance, with a rare coldness between his eyebrows, but he was even more timeless and handsome.

The wolf fang who rushed over looked at him for a while, until he heard his shout and jumped on top of him, Jing Yixuan's eyes suddenly dyed a little smile, touched the top of his head, and asked, "Where have you been, have you eaten lunch?" ”

The wolf tooth didn't say anything, he only pointed to a certain place, he looked in the direction he pointed, and saw that it was the green woods in the backyard, Jing Yixuan immediately understood what he meant, "Is it ...... wolf teeth playing in the woods?"

With joy in his eyes, Wolf Fang nodded, "Hungry, eat." ”

Jing Yixuan smiled gently: "Okay, it's okay to take the wolf tooth out to play today." ”

The wolf's teeth left for a moment, and his voice was muffled, "I don't like it, there are people,"

"It's okay, senior brother accompanies the wolf's teeth." The wolf's tooth was an abandoned baby that the master picked up in the deep forest, and when he saw him, he stayed with the wolves, and he was about 6 years old when he was adopted, and he lived with the master in the mountains, and did not like to contact people.

"Dilan, you go and prepare the carriage, and tonight we will go to see the lion dance, and we will go again...... General's Mansion," Di Lan, who was standing next to him, heard his words, and a smile flashed in his eyes, as if his daughter had finally married, and it was very strange with his expressionless face.

But when he came to the General's Palace, he found that someone had already taken the lead.

The yard where Ye Qianmo lives now is left by her mother, and there are a lot of flowers and plants planted in the yard, which are beautifully decorated, and the sun has just set at this time. The flowers in the sky are falling, like the white snow sprinkled in the ocean, the green bamboo in the courtyard is swaying, setting off a layer of turquoise ripples, and the clear pool water is dyed with the makeup of the sunset, which is picturesque.

And in the middle of the two towering ancient trees by the pool, on the swing flying in the wind, the red shirt dances like a blooming peony, noble and gorgeous, darkening all the colors around.

At this time, Jing Yixuan, who was standing at the gate of the courtyard, couldn't help but stand at the door and look at the girl swinging on the swing, the flying red dress was like fire, and the prosperity in the air fell on her body, which was so beautiful in the afterglow of the sunset.

Ye Qianmo sat on the swing and looked at someone who was leaning on the tree uninvited. Murong Chen looked at her with her arms resting behind her head and her legs on the trunk of a tree.

Lu Liu walked out of the house, holding refreshments in his hand, and was stunned when he saw Jing Yixuan standing at the entrance of the courtyard, "Master Hou......" Why do these two people have such a tacit understanding, and they came to this general's mansion one after the other.

Ye Qianmo heard the shout, hurriedly turned around, and saw a person with a long body standing in the distance, green silk like ink, gentle eyes, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and his heart couldn't help but move.

"Qianmo," he smiled and nodded towards the green willow, and walked over slowly, a faint fragrance of chrysanthemums came, holding the vines of the swing with both hands, "Is there something wrong at night?" ”

For a moment, the situation of meeting several times suddenly appeared in my mind. It seems that every time they meet, they are not calm, and when they meet for the first time, she has a good impression of him, and still remembers his comforting smile; When they met again, they parted unhappily, and a faint suspicion lingered; A chance encounter in the woods, she no longer defends him.

In the carriage, his pale face was lying on the carved soft couch, and his eyebrows were gentle, "Qianmo, if you have something to ask me to come to, I will help you if I can do it, most of the shops in the capital belong to me secretly......"

"Today is the Liqiu Festival, the liveliest gathering in Beijing, and the night market is open all night. And there are jugglers from all over the city pouring into the capital, and tonight there are poetry clubs, music parties and other fun things. The clean voice in his ears pulled her back, and his voice was gentle, clear, and moist, like a spring breeze, and it was irresistible.

As if he didn't see anyone else, he was so close that Ye Qianmo could even feel his gentle breath blowing on his neck, but he was not disgusted. But the white fingers ran through her hair and touched the top of her head, moving gently, as if he had touched another priceless treasure.

Ye Qianmo couldn't help but be stunned, her heart was beating faster, and the heat was spreading on her face.

Murong Chen, who was sitting on the tree, stopped doing it. As soon as Jing Yixuan came, he found him, but he was just too lazy to make a sound, but now ......, he flew down from the tree and raised his eyebrows to divert the topic, "Isn't Yixuan supposed to enter the palace today, our little Xue'er is going to cry." "The little Cher he said is the tenth princess.

"Seventh brother," he seemed to have just seen him, "didn't you go to the palace yet, presumably the emperor and the queen mother are going to lose their temper again." ”

"How can you compare with this prince, it's a common thing for this prince not to go," he said with a straight face, "but this is the first autumn festival you have come to the capital." After that, he lowered his head and looked at Ye Qianmo deeply, the leaf-colored eyelashes flickered, like a fluttering butterfly, pulling her off the swing, "Momo, you promised me to go with me to play." ”

Ye Qianmo was speechless, when did she agree! Lu Liu also smiled when he saw the Seven Princes' devotion, and brought the refreshments to the three of them. Needless to say, the tea is very handsome and eye-catching. It is carved with delicate patterns, small and lovely. Jing Yixuan smiled and picked one up and put it in his mouth, and tasted back: "It's still delicious here in Qianmo, and it also brings some ...... to the wolf's teeth."

"The little one is here too?"

Annoyance flashed in the eyes of the neglected Murong Chen, his brows furrowed slightly, he didn't know what to think of for a moment, he lowered his eyes and smiled, and there was a hint of cunning at the corner of his mouth, "Let's go together." ”

Green Willow didn't go because she had to take care of the injured red tassel, and watched a few people get into the carriage. The carriage prepared by Dylan was good, and it didn't look crowded after the three of them got in.

As soon as she entered the carriage, Ye Qianmo saw the wolf fang sitting there upright, of course the wolf tooth also saw her, and after she sat next to him, her eyes widened and she touched her hand. He remembered this sister, who was the one who saved his brother. However, when he saw Murong Chen, who was following him, he immediately bared his teeth, and there was a faint sound in his throat, as if he was very jealous of him.

Jing Yixuan patted him soothingly,

Murong Chen glanced at the child and walked away from him unconsciously.

The wolf tooth was quickly attracted by the snack in Ye Qianmo's hand, and Ye Qianmo only looked like a child when she met a child. picked up a piece of snack and put it in his hand, but he never snatched it, and said to Wolf Fang with a smile: "Little guy, here you are, it's delicious." A few times like this, the child was annoyed, and his shot was like electricity, Ye Qianmo couldn't help but look at the dim sum in his mouth a little dumbfounded, this speed is really not covered.

The carriage hurried towards the busiest street in Chang'an. From afar, I saw that the bustling streets were brightly lit, and there were colorful fireworks flashing in the night sky, bright as meteors, bright as flowers, making the streets more lively. Also because there are too many people, the carriage does not pass. Several people got out of the carriage and walked.

All kinds of shops and stalls selling groceries are crowded with people. The streets are full of children chasing each other with lanterns and smiling happily; Couples strolling hand in hand, bargaining adults, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a sea of people.

The owners of each store greeted the customers with a smile on their faces, and the dazzling array of products added a little color to these shops. Women are born to love crazy streets, and it's not bad at all.

Ye Qianmo couldn't wait to open more eyes on the spot, even if she didn't buy it, she could still feast her eyes. Before I knew it, I came to the jade shop. When the boss saw that these people were dressed well, he hurriedly greeted them with a smile on his face, "A few people are really good-looking, our store is a century-old store, and everything here is of the highest quality...... Girl, it turns out that you are also a connoisseur, and what you have in your hand is a specialty of our store, and you don't want to buy it from other stores."

In Ye Qianmo's hand is a bracelet chiseled from mutton fat jade, with a dense and delicate texture, soft and even, very beautiful. Looking at the jade in her hand, she suddenly remembered the blood jade unicorn that had followed her for several years in modern times. When she left the orphanage, the director gave her that she had been wearing it when she was brought here, and that it was hanging around her neck in the form of a pendant.

She's distracted here, but no one else thinks so. When the boss saw that she loved her so much, his face smiled like a chrysanthemum, and his eyes narrowed into a line: "The best beauty is hard to find, since the girl understands jade, she will not bury it with you, you give a price." ”

Murong Chen glanced at the jade in her hand, always feeling familiar, and suddenly caught a glimpse of the accessories hanging from Jing Yixuan's waist, and walked straight forward to snatch it from her hand, "Boss, she doesn't know how to pretend to understand, you better sell it to others," he said and put the jade on the table and pulled her away.

Ye Qianmo was angry, where is this, "Murong Chen, you are confused, what are you doing!" ”

Maybe he was too angry, there were many people on the street, and the two were so close, Ye Qianmo didn't shake off his hand, Murong Chen held her hand tightly, and the smile on his face was obviously proud. It wasn't until he saw Jing Yixuan come out that he let go as if nothing happened.

"The front is the poetry appreciation conference," Jing Yixuan said to Ye Qianmo as he walked: "Everyone is eligible to participate, as long as the one with the highest skill wins within the limited time, and the first place is selected in turn, and the first place is generally fame and fortune." ”

As he spoke, he had come to the place. The big platform was surrounded by people, and Ye Qianmo and the others came to the front row without difficulty. There were also a few people standing on the stage, and in the end, the winner was actually a sixty-year-old man.

An elegant-looking middle-aged man clenched his fists and said loudly, "Thank you for coming, I think you all know the rules of the competition, so I won't be verbose," he pointed to the tall building, "This time the reward is thousand-year-old ginseng." ”

As soon as these words came out, the crowd below exploded with a 'coax', "It turned out to be a thousand-year-old ginseng, this is a good thing to save lives." ”

"This owner is rich, and he is willing to take out such a rare thing."

"Everyone, be quiet, let's ask the next group, if you are willing to go on stage, please hurry up and ......," when he spoke, two people came up, one was the son of the majestic Xuan, and the other turned out to be Ping Xinrui, "There is still one left...... Well, that's enough, this girl, please come here. ”

The three of them stopped there, and there was no sound below. Ye Qianmo was happy, and this last one was even more coincidental - Ye Yulan, she glanced to the side, and as expected, Ye Yurong was standing not far away.

Ye Yurong didn't notice her, and was talking to Mu Hibiscus. “…… Let's leave it at that, my mother will bring my sister into the palace in a few days, and you just have to tell me when the time comes. Also, do things with a long look. ”

She was talking about hibiscus skewering Mama Song. Before it was her turn to ask, Mama Song told her the truth, and Ye Yurong helped her say a few words, which saved her from suffering from flesh and skin.

Hibiscus naturally should be.

"Seventh brother, it seems that in addition to me and you, there is one more person who does not go to the palace." Jing Yixuan looked at another person on the stage and said with a smile, this person is the fifth prince Murong Ye.

At this point, the game has begun. "Ask the three of you to complete a poem in a stick of incense, and the title is your own."

Ye Qianmo, who has been cultivated by thousands of years of culture, has been full of the 'benefits' of exam-oriented education, and this masterpiece is at her fingertips, and she has long lost interest in this formulaic procedure, and when she saw that the other two were also lacking in interest, she pulled the child who had long been impatient and wrinkled into a bitter gourd face and squeezed out of the crowd.

Looking back, the remaining two were about to follow. Suddenly, the child didn't know what she had found, broke free of her hand, and ran somewhere. Ye Qianmo was in a hurry and hurriedly went to pull him, but heard someone shouting, "The lion dancer is coming, here ......"

In an instant, the tide of people ran to one place, and the shouts of the crowd could almost be described as deafening, Ye Qianmo was squeezed away by the crowd, and the other two were not good, and in a moment, they were drowned in the crowd.

At the last glance, Ye Qianmo saw Jing Yixuan's anxious face, his usually gentle eyes were full of ....... of staring and searching, it turned out that from then on, a lot of east to west was doomed.
