Chapter 44: You Are the One Who Makes My Blood Boil
Liuzi heard the anxious attitude in Nian Yingxi's words, and immediately nodded, "Liuzi will definitely wait for the second lady with peace of mind." ”
In the carriage, Xuan Yuehuai, who had just come back to her senses, looked at Nian Yingxi who had explained to the sixth son outside, retracted her eyes thoughtfully, and looked at Xuan Yining in the soft couch, "Brother Huang likes her very much?" ”
Xuan Yining's fingers flipped through the book, blinked his slender eyebrows, and asked instead of answering, "What do you say?" ”
Xuan Yuehuai actually had a lot to ask, such as why he wanted to sneak into the Li Mansion for her, and why he told her everything, if it was just a simple transaction, Xuan Yining would inevitably trust this future contract queen a little too much, but these were just thoughts in his heart, and what he finally said was, "I always feel that you treat her a little unusual." That's it.
It's not that he is not curious, but he understands the distance between himself and Xuan Yining, even if Xuan Yining trusts him and treats him differently than ordinary people, it does not mean that he can test the emperor's mind at will, this is the gap between the monarch and the minister, which can never be crossed in the past.
Xuan Yining naturally tasted the meaning of Xuan Yuehuai's words, raised his eyes from the scroll, looked at the shadow that was getting farther and farther away from the window of the horse's carriage, and whispered as light as a feather, "Do you feel that I am doting on her?" ”
"It's not love." Xuan Yuehuai looked out the window, and her gaze became distant, "I just feel that I am more or less spoiled inside." ”
"Huh...... Perhaps. Xuan Yining supported her full forehead with one hand, and bent her other hand again, gently tapping her knee, and smiling clearly, "Because I always feel that there is something in her body that attracts my attention." ”
Xuan Yuehuai was stunned, stopped talking, and fell into silence in the carriage again.
In the night, Nian Yingxi, who was standing on the street, did not turn around and slip into the Li Mansion through the back door until she saw the carriage disappear.
Lee House, Antechamber.
At this time, the night was dark, and many guests had already left their seats, leaving only a few sparse tables and a few guests laughing and talking about something.
Nian Gengrong drank three rounds, his face was slightly red, and when he saw Xuan Yuchen glancing at him, he got up and left the table, walked towards the door alone, put down the wine glass after thinking about it, and got up with him, and walked out of the front hall with his feet in front and behind.
Along the way, Xuan Yuchen walked in front, Nian Gengrong walked behind, and others saw that they were just two people walking together.
After walking for about a quarter of an hour, Xuan Yuchen in front saw that he had already walked to the side courtyard, and there was no one nearby, so he stopped and turned to look at Nian Gengrong standing with his hands in his hands.
At this time, how can Nian Gengrong pretend to be unfamiliar anymore? hurriedly stepped forward a few times and bowed to Xuan Yuchen, "What is the urgent matter of King Sinan?" In his opinion, although there is no one nearby, it is someone else's mansion after all, Xuan Yuchen has always been cautious, if there is no urgency, he will not take such a risk.
Xuan Yuchen shook the sleeves behind him and snorted coldly, "The deputy capital of the year is really a big face, and he even dared to resist the emperor's holy decree!" ”
Nian Gengrong's heart sank, afraid that it was Xuan Yuchen's temptation, so he pretended to be confused, "Weichen doesn't understand what the prince means. ”
"You don't understand?" Xuan Yuchen's eyebrows tightened, and he gritted his teeth, "Don't think that this king doesn't know about the post-establishment of the post, now that no one in the Manchu Dynasty will say it, that holy decree must be given to the third lady of the young deputy capital, and now you are in such a hurry to marry your daughter casually, isn't it to avoid that holy decree?" ”
Nian Gengrong didn't expect Xuan Yuchen to have so many eyes and ears, but the matter had come to this point, he could only delay and smile, "It's just the stammering words of some officials, how can this be believed?" ”
"What if it's serious? Don't you think that you have missed the best opportunity to put a powerful eyeliner next to my imperial brother? Xuan Yuchen bit it, his face under the moonlight was slightly weird, "Or is it that the deputy capital loves his daughter and is deeply afraid that his daughter will become a victim of this battle?" ”
Nian Gengrong's back was sweating, and he was forced to retreat by Xuan Yuchen's words, at this juncture, there was no room to turn back, he could only assist Xuan Yuchen in his rebellion, but he didn't want Xuan Yuchen to feel that he was selfish, so after thinking about it, he could only temporarily find a substitute for the dead ghost.
With a turn of his eyes, his heart became ruthless, and Nian Gengrong smiled softly, "If you want to arrange to enter the palace, you also have to find someone who is easy to fiddle with, and the second daughter of the Weichen family is just right." ”
"You mean Nian Yingxi?" Xuan Yuchen's eyes lit up, and the figure that made him feel very unusual today appeared in his mind again.
"Exactly." Nian Gengrong wiped his sweat and said along the way, "Weichen's second daughter has been stupid since she was a child, presumably the prince has also seen it with his own eyes, if that holy decree really refers to Weichen's third daughter, take this opportunity to use the second daughter instead of entering the palace, anyway, it's just a puppet of our eyeliner, presumably just need a slight scare, and Weichen's second daughter will obey our will in everything." ”
Xuan Yuchen didn't expect that Nian Gengrong would ruthlessly think of the method of replacing one thing with another, and while he was surprised, he couldn't help but feel that it was a good idea, he laughed secretly, anyway, Nian Yingxi that girl always stuck to him before, if it was really her who entered the palace, as long as he came forward, the girl would not only be overjoyed immediately, but also completely at his mercy.
"It seems that this king has misunderstood the kindness of the deputy capital of the year." After Xuan Yuchen figured it out, he pulled the words back, and his voice softened a lot.
Hearing this, Nian Gengrong hurriedly smiled, "Weichen is naturally wholeheartedly for the sake of the prince. After speaking, she breathed a sigh of relief, no matter what, as long as she mixed it up first, and Nian Yingxi was stupid since she was a child, even if she became a victim of this power-seeking, she would just have one less mouth to feed in the future.
A breeze blew, causing the rustling of nearby leaves, Xuan Yuchen was satisfied, and seeing that this place was not suitable for a long time, he turned around and walked back towards the front hall where the lantern was lit.
Waiting for Xuan Yuchen to disappear nearby, Nian Gengrong got up and took a deep breath, and left the clearing in the other direction.
"Hehe......" After the two of them had disappeared, a sneer accompanied by mockery came from a treetop in the woods, accompanied by a breeze.
A dark cloud drifted by, and when the moon fell again, a light figure jumped down from the treetops, and the moonlight hit her delicate features, covering her with a faint silver light.
Nian Yingxi didn't expect that as soon as she slipped into the Li Mansion, she heard such a blood-boiling conversation, turning her wrist, she sneered again, she didn't expect that Nian Gengrong and Xuan Yuchen's abacus was really loud, one was that she was easy to fiddle with, and the other was to pull her as a substitute for the dead ghost, what a deep calculation!
In a fit of rage, Nian Yingxi punched the trunk of a tree that was more than ten arms thick at her side, and as the leaves fell, she clenched her fists until her hands turned white.
She never thought that she was a kind person, but she never did anything to trick people, and now these shrewd people don't want to stand on her shoulders all the time and step her underground, if she doesn't know how to resist, isn't it a little too sorry, their old scheming plan?
Letting go of her clenched palm, she touched the map in her arms, Nian Yingxi hooked her lips and showed a sly smile, she thought that she would steal those letters and hand them over, but now it seems that she has changed her mind.
Is Sinan Wang Xuan Yuchen so? Take your wife Yu Shulan with you, let's settle the old accounts together, and see how I made you restless and the mansion ruined!
"Miss Nianer?"
A low call interrupted Nian Yingxi's thoughts standing under the tree, and when she raised her eyes, it was Li Pei, who had a gentle face, who was walking slowly towards her.
"Mr. Li." Nian Yingxi smiled faintly, for this impression of Li Pei, she can't talk about it, and she can't talk about it, and she can't talk about it.
Li Pei finished dealing with those people, so he hurried out to look for her, but he didn't expect him to look around, but he didn't even see her shadow, disappointed, he thought about coming to the backyard to take a look with the last luck, he didn't want to see her, and he really saw her.
"Why are you standing here alone?" Li Pei walked into her, looked at her thin clothes, and her perennial stretched brows were slightly wrinkled together, and without saying a word, she untied her robe and took it off, and it was about to cover her thin shoulders.
Nian Yingxi, who didn't like the strange atmosphere, took a step back, cleverly dodged Li Pei's robe, and had a distant and polite smile on her face, "It's just that I want to come out and relax, so I'll go back." ”
Seeing her dodging her clothes, Li Pei withdrew her arms a little embarrassed, and her eyes dimmed a little, "Li has no intention of being light, but seeing that it is getting late, the second lady is wearing such a thin dress, I am afraid that it will ......."
"Mr. Li." Nian Yingxi interrupted him, bowed her head to him, and blessed her body, "It's really not early, presumably my father is already getting up and going back to the house, I'm afraid I'll be angry if I can't find it." ”
Li Pei wanted to say something that was choked on her throat, and she was stunned for a long time before she hurriedly stretched out her hand and said, "Second Miss doesn't have to be so polite, since Second Miss wants to go back, it's better to let Li ......"
"The little girl has retired." Nian Yingxi interrupted Li Pei's words again, turned around and walked out of the backyard.
It's not that she didn't see Li Pei's good impression of her, but since she didn't want to give anything to others, why did she procrastinate? It's better to straightforwardly state your thoughts, and break Li Pei's thoughts, Li Pei is a good person, since she is young and unhappy, there is no need to be ambiguously entangled with others.
Reaching out and taking out the veil in her arms, Nian Yingxi gently covered her eyes again, she just saved her sixth son and hated trouble, so she took it off, fortunately Li Pei didn't notice it just now.
