Chapter Twenty-Six: A Witty Encounter

Liu Che'er turned around and pointed at Shenglan and said, "Of course I didn't know at first, but I met the same person that night and tonight, and it was this little girl next to you." ”

Hua Yan asked again, "So what?" ”

Liu Che'er smiled mysteriously, "Although you wore a veil that night, she didn't, and she called you Miss instead of Miss Lin from beginning to end." I sent someone to inquire, since she is your personal maid, naturally she will not call Miss Lin as a young lady. ”

Huayan breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, he only knew that I was the one who played the plum blossom smile in the Forgotten Dust Building that night, and he didn't know the identity of the eighth master.

"Now that you know, I won't hide it from you, it's indeed me, but I have my reasons, can you keep it a secret for me?"

"Although I don't know why you appeared in the Forgotten Dust Building, I am willing to go to the soup to stop it if you don't want to." Liu Che'er said sincerely.

Painting Yan repaid his sincerity with a bright smile, "Sure enough, it's enough friends, Yan'er has thanked the prince here." ”

"Yan'er, why are you polite to me, it's just that I haven't seen you for many years, Yan'er...... How can you change so much......" Liu Che'er said hesitantly.

Of course, Hua Yan knew that he was talking about his appearance, so he turned his back and snickered: "You also know that I used to be born with a beautiful appearance, but because I had a serious illness some time ago, and after I recovered from my illness, my face became what it is now." ”

"Can you find a doctor to take a good look?" Liu Che'er asked.

"The doctor is helpless, just want to live this life in peace."

Liu Che'er Zou frowned and said: "How can you stop here, Yan'er, don't worry, I will definitely find famous doctors all over the world to treat you!" ”

"Isn't the prince ugly?"

"How could it! Yan'er, do you know how important you are to me, from the day you saved me...... I ......," Liu Che'er said excitedly.

Huayan originally just wanted to tease him, but he didn't expect him to be so excited, and he couldn't help but be stunned. Before he could finish speaking, he immediately got up and walked back with the two girls in his arms.

"Lord Wang, it's not too early, Yan'er will retire."

Liu Che'er saw that Huayan was leaving, so he came back to his senses. "This king will send you, I have sent someone to inform Mrs. Hua that you are here with me, don't worry."

"The prince doesn't have to send each other, the way home is not too far."

"Then what, your foot is injured, and you won't let me send you, then take my carriage back, and you must not be negligent again when your foot is injured." Liu Che'er then caught up with Huayan and stopped her.

The painting was reluctant, so he had to agree. "Okay."

Liu Che'er kept helping Huayan into the carriage before he was willing to let go, and stood outside the gate of the mansion to watch the carriage leave, until the body was completely submerged in the night.

At the moment of the last corner, Hua Yan lifted the curtain of the car and looked in the direction of Liu Che'er, and saw that he was still parked outside the mansion gate, watching him motionless. The white moonlight sprinkled on his yellow robe, and on his warm face, it was like the sun shining on her. A warmth suddenly surged in Huayan's heart, but she didn't care why.

Since the emperor held a banquet in the Yidu palace that night, the streets and alleys in the capital have been talking about the same person for more than ten consecutive days, and that person is the painting face.

Needless to say, it is also very reasonable for a dignified and dignified person like Mrs. Hua to be extremely annoyed by what Mrs. Hua has done, and it is not because the king of Yidu personally sent someone to escort Hua Yan back to the house, and for the sake of the prince's face, Mrs. Hua took back some of her anger. Of course, the painting is still indispensable to the scolding of Mrs. Painting all night, and she always has to suffer some punishment for her own mischievous plan.

On the contrary, Hua Taishou did not say anything, and after returning from the palace, he was still so calm and handled his official duties in an orderly manner. Compared with Mrs. Hua, he understands or approves more of what Hua Yan did in the palace that night, from the fact that he pretended to be busy and turned a blind eye to Mrs. Hua's complaint, and from the fact that he secretly smiled at Hua Yan behind Mrs. Hua's back.

Early this morning, Huayan Tongshenglan changed into the necessary outfits for going out and went out early. In the past three or four days that Mrs. Hua has been strictly ordered to enter and leave the house, she has been suffocated. Finally, when Mrs. Hua relaxed a little, she sneaked out of the house without stopping.

The first stop out of the house is naturally the Forgotten Dust Building.

What is different from the past is that Huayan did not walk outside as calmly as before, but walked straight to the Forgotten Dust Building.

As soon as she entered the door, she saw the smiling shepherd who greeted her, but she ignored it, walked directly into the hall, sat down on the most conspicuous tea seat in the center of the hall, and poured herself tea. The conversation of the others caught her attention.

"I heard that Xiao Minglang had just returned to the capital from the frontier, and all the princes asked around about his whereabouts, but they couldn't find anyone else. A few days ago, even the emperor invited him to be a guest. It's a pity that he didn't understand the emperor's intentions. ”

"Who is Xiao Minglang? The champion of civil and military affairs, self-sustaining and high, how could he be willing to be under the tent of the eldest prince and others? ”

"But he didn't accept the official title, but he was just a grass citizen."

"He studied under Moyan, and his literary and martial arts are famous all over the world. How can you care about the title of champion? What's more, he has recently been taught by the current Shangguan, and there is no one else in his eyes. After the man finished speaking, he suddenly lowered his voice and said: "He has never openly supported any prince before, but according to his speech at the palace banquet a few days ago, it obviously shows everything!" ”

"Who? Could it be the third prince......"

After listening to it, he suddenly understood why Liu Che'er had a separate relationship with Xiao Minglang that night.

The shepherd lady was a little surprised by the sudden action of the painting face, and slowly followed. "Eighth master, you're here, the slave family hasn't seen you for a few days!"

Hua Yan picked up the teacup and was expressionless, "Eighth Master, I won't come again, won't this Forgotten Dust Building be closed in your hands!" ”

The voice of the painting is not loud, but it is very cold, attracting the attention of the people in the building from time to time.

The shepherd couldn't help but be stunned, whether the previous painting was outside or inside, she had never said a word of weight to her. She threw an inquiring glance at Katsuran, but Katsuran shook her head and said she didn't know. She was smart and quickly thought about why Huayan behaved so abnormally, but she couldn't think of a reason. "The eighth master is angry, the shepherd knows that she is stupid, and she still hopes that the eighth master will give you some advice."

Hua Yan took a sip of tea lightly and said slowly: "I heard that the singing and dancing performances scheduled every night in the Forgotten Dust Building are not as good as before?" There was even a break?! Let the forgotten dust building be so discredited to customers, not to mention that with this first time, it is inevitable that there will be no next time, is this business not done? ”

As soon as the shepherd heard this, she immediately understood that the problem was Lin Yunrou. "Please forgive the eighth master, the shepherd lady knows that she is wrong, and I hope that the eighth master will give the shepherd another chance."

Hua Yan threw the cup on the table, "I made a mistake, just say what you say?" Do you want me to remind you how to explain?! ”

Mu Niang was a little overwhelmed when she saw that Hua Yanfa suddenly became so angry, but she immediately subconsciously bowed her head and pleaded guilty, and the people in the Forgotten Dust Building also looked at the two of them.

"The eighth master is angry, and the reason why there is a break in the scheduled performance every night in the Forgotten Dust Building is because Miss Lin was unwell a few days ago and went back to recuperate after taking leave. And Forget Chenlou couldn't find a suitable person to replace him for a while, so ......" After the shepherd lady finished speaking, she cautiously glanced at the painting.

Huayan still had a cold expression and didn't look at her. "Oh? Miss Lin is sick? When do I take leave? ”

"Three days ago."

Hua Yan sneered, "Three days ago? Wasn't that the day of the banquet in the Yidu Palace? How did I hear that Miss Lin was also there, she was sick and couldn't recuperate, but she had a quarrel with the young lady of the painting house? Miss Mo Feilin is not sick, so she is taking a leave of absence, or are you simply lax in management? ”

The shepherd lady was taken aback, she seemed to understand the true intention of painting Yan this time. "Miss Lin actually went to the palace? Eighth master, the shepherd doesn't know. ”

"Since you say so, let Miss Lin confront you, do you dare?" Huayan leaned lazily against the tea table, propped up her face, and finally threw a glance at her.

"The shepherd obeys." The shepherd then turned to the girl behind her and said, "Go and invite Miss Lin to come over." ”

It didn't take long for Lin Yunrou to come over from the private room on the second floor. At this time, the lobby of people came and went, but it was silent, only the eighth master in the center of the tea house was silently pouring himself a drink, and the shepherd lady was respectfully half-leaning over to stand aside, with a serious expression, and the cold atmosphere in the hall seemed to be able to freeze the air. When Lin Yunrou saw this scene, she heard the little girl tell the conversation between the eighth master and the shepherd, and she panicked in her heart. She walked to the side of the shepherd with trepidation, and secretly glanced at the eighth master, not daring to speak.

The shepherd was about to speak, but the painting broke the silence first, she did not look back, and smelled the tea leisurely. "Miss Lin, I heard that you were sick a few days ago? Is it better now? ”

Although the silence had all spoken, the coldness of the tone was even more uncomfortable than the solemn atmosphere just now.

Lin Yunrou couldn't help but tremble and began to tremble, "Thank you for the love of the eighth master, the little girl is already much better." ”

Hua Yan raised her head and looked at the second floor, and continued: "Miss Lin, it is important to take care of your body, and everything else is secondary. ”

"The eighth master is talking about ......"

Before Lin Yunrou could finish speaking, Huayan said again: "Your body is already thin, how can you beat the second lady of the painter who looks like a strong man?" Thanks to your intelligence, you know that you can't fight her on the thick soil and under the poor mountains, and you know how to jump into the water and swim away. Otherwise, you're going to have a terrible sin! ”

After listening to what Huayan just said, Lin Yunrou was stunned for a while, the eighth master she knew used to be obedient and took care of her, and never said that she was not, but now she has completely changed as a person.

When she reacted, she saw that the people in the hall were all pursed and looking at herself. Lin Yunrou was ashamed and ashamed, stomped her feet, pulled the silk handkerchief in her hand, and was so anxious that her face was flushed, and she didn't know how to answer for a while.

A subtle smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, she took a sip of the tea in her cup, and finally got up and walked towards the two people standing closest to her, although she was talking to Lin Yunrou, her eyes were always staring at the closed Accord on the second floor.

"Miss Lin, you have already taken leave from me to go back to recuperate, but now that you have eaten that cold water, aren't you getting sicker and sicker? If you have any three strengths and two shortcomings, I am the most distressed! ”

Lin Yunrou never answered, or rather, it was just that Huayan deliberately didn't let her speak.

"In my opinion, Miss Lin is recuperating in the house, so she doesn't have to come to my Forgotten Dust Building. Although I am reluctant to be the eighth master, for the sake of Miss Lin's body, I have to endure the pain of cutting my love! ”

After painting Yan, he held his forehead with his hand, pretending to be in pain.

When Lin Yunrou heard this, she was stunned and took two steps back. Although she was flustered and nervous, she still heard the meaning of what Hua Yan had just said. First he saw through his excuses, and then he let himself get out of here.

Lin Yunrou's parents have passed away young, and the Forgotten Dust Building is her only way to make a living. The two aunts in the family can only be regarded as half of her relatives. Although she can still keep a place to live temporarily, all the sources of life of the family depend on her monthly silver in the Forgotten Dust Building. If this last way of life is gone, the person who can still be called an aunt now, she may not know how to practice her in the future, she has already seen it clearly.

Thinking of this, the arrogant Lin Yunrou didn't dare to get angry, so she had to swallow her anger and beg for mercy. "Eighth Master, Wan Rou knows that she has done something wrong, but please forgive Wan Rou this time......"

Facing Lin Yunrou, who was begging hard, Huayan did not answer, she turned around and sat back in the chair, still pretending to be sad.

At this time, the closed Accord on the second floor finally opened, and a gentle man came out of it.

The man said: "Seeing such a beautiful pear blossom with rain, it's not like the style of the Yingtai brothers!" ”

There was only one person, so the other person must be hiding in the house? Huayan smiled secretly in his heart, and the fish really took the bait.
