In mid-June, Izuku celebrated her eighteenth birthday. At her own insistent request, the Yun Mansion did not make a big deal, but just had a meal together. Naturally, Shen Yu was absent, after all, in the eyes of outsiders, they had already "fallen out".

Izuku knew that Shen Yu would definitely remember the day of his birthday, in previous years, he would send some expensive jewelry, or rare things that were not common in his daughter's house, but this year, she understood that she would not receive his birthday gifts.

On the seventh day after his birthday, Chuxiu sent someone to send a prayer to King Mu, expressing his intention to visit. The post was sent in the morning, and there was a reply in the afternoon, Mu Wang was very cautious, and also expressed great enthusiasm and courtesy for this meeting with Chuxiu, and immediately put aside some official duties, and set the day of the meeting in the afternoon of the next day. Although it was not common sense to visit in the afternoon, neither of them was a person who was rigid in etiquette, so there was no objection.

After lunch on the second day, Chuxiu deliberately changed into a decent dress, although it was still white, but it was also outstanding, decent, and luxurious. A snowy satin embroidered with white peonies, with a light layer of pink smoke on the skirt. This is a dress made by ten embroidery girls in Yunjinzhuang who worked day and night, and it took more than half a year to make a dress, which was personally sent by Yun Feng, the nephew of the housekeeper Yun Zhong, before her birthday this year.

Izumi understood Yun Feng's intentions, so she only regarded it as her birthday gift and accepted it with a smile.

She has never liked the embellishment of gold and silver ornaments, and this time she did not deliberately put on makeup when she saw King Mu, only inserted a hosta diagonally in her hair bun, and in addition, there was no decoration on her body.

Riding the chariot to the Mu Wang's Mansion in a low-key manner, Mu Wang Nie Peihan had already greeted him in person in front of the mansion. Out of Xiu quietly lifted the corner of the curtain to look, only to feel that this Mu Wang, who had made great achievements in the Nanxi army, and was ruthless and cruel in the legend, was unusually young and ...... Familiar?

Before she could react, the chariot had slowly stopped. Out of Xiu didn't squint and got out of the car, and bowed to the black figure in front of King Mu's mansion: "The concubine is out of the Yun family, and I have seen King Mu." ”

"Mrs. Izumi is polite." Mu Wang's voice was crisp and polite, but it couldn't hide the condensation and alienation. Just listening to these few words, Izuku could roughly predict what this terrifying King Mu should look like.

However, when she raised her head to meet it, she was still shocked. Not only her, but the other party was obviously shocked.

Between their eyes, almost at the same moment, Izuku and King Mu said in unison: "It's you?!" Then they chuckled together.

In the end, it was King Mu who stretched out his hand first and asked: "This is not the place to speak, Madame, please." ”

Out of Xiu was also not polite, stepped into King Mu's mansion, and went to his confidential study with King Mu.

As soon as the subordinates served the teacup, King Mu had already waved back left and right, and smiled at Chuxiu: "Miss Hanchu, I haven't seen you for a long time. ”

"Nanqi Gongzi, don't come unharmed." Izuku looked at the peerless King Mu in front of him and smiled softly. The phoenix eyes are raised, the posture is charming, and the handsome face is indisputable, and even the color of the clothes is exactly the same as when they first met each other...... Outsiders probably don't know that the rumored Prince Mu, who is decisive and ruthless, is so deceptive.

is also an old man from Xiu. That's a long story......

At the age of fourteen, she was already the "No. 1 Beauty of Nanxi" Hanchu, who moved the world, and Mother Feng arranged for her to go to Beixi to teach art to the Qinglou women, which was also the only time she left Nanxi Jingzhou. said that she went to Beixi to "pass on her art", but in fact, it was just a gimmick, a gimmick to help her make a reputation. Because she has reached the age of listing, she is about to bid on the first night.

Due to the proper arrangement of Mother Feng, Han Churen has not yet arrived in Beixi Imperial City, which has attracted a heated discussion. And when she appeared in Yihong Pavilion, it attracted more than half of the men in the city to watch, vying to see the style of "Nanxi's first beauty". According to the level of bidding, in the end, it was the minister Xuan who was the prince of Beixi Town, who was the son of the king of Beixi Town, who won the opportunity to see the beauty.

I still remember that night, Izumi was about to change his clothes and meet his ministers, but he found that he found a peerless man in black hidden in his house. She was originally shocked, but she entered the door at this time. Before Izuku had time to see what Chen Xuan looked like, several killers suddenly broke into the door to find bad luck and almost killed her.

Izuku thought that this group of killers was arranged by the man in black, but after Chen Xuan was attacked, he actually jumped out to save people, and saw that she was in danger, and the man in black decisively saved her life first, and then left a sentence "In Xia Nanqi, offended", and then jumped out of the window to chase those killers and go to rescue Chen Xuan.

Although it was only a one-sided relationship, although the scene of each other's first meeting was so nonsensical, they both left a deep impression on each other. After all, how many men and women with peerless elegance like Izuku and King Mu can there be in the world? Naturally, they never forgot to see each other.

At that time, Chuxiu was still a fourteen-year-old girl who had nothing to do, and she wanted to thank this Nanqi prince for saving his life. But she stayed in Beixi for only seven days, and after inquiring and inquiring, there was no family surnamed "Nan" in the imperial city of Lidu and even in the entire Beixi, which also made her gradually give up the idea of repaying her kindness.

After that, when she returned to Nanxi from Beixi, she met Helian Qi by chance, and it happened to be the age of listing again, so she officially picked up the guests under the arrangement of Mother Feng.

After that, he suffered from Helianqi's bad luck, as well as Mingying's many insults, and even almost died in the fire......

Nearly four years have passed in a blink of an eye, and Chu Xiu never expected that the life-saving benefactor who tried his best to inquire about the traces back then was not from Beixi, but the dignified King of Nanximu! What's even more ridiculous is that she has been in Yanlan City for more than two years, and today is the first time she has met him!

The world is not mysterious, and Izuku suddenly felt that this unexpected reunion would make today's secret conversation twice as effective with half the effort.

Both of them are neat and neat people, and they don't dwell on the past. King Mu didn't ask her why she changed from Hanchu to Mrs. Chuxiu, and she didn't ask King Mu why she changed from a savior to a rival in love......

The negotiation ended quickly, and the Yun family was willing to use half of the assets to help King Mu to do things, and in return, after King Mu ascended to the throne, he wanted to ensure that the Yun family was prosperous.

King Mu is also very generous, bluntly saying that he only "borrowed" half of the Yun family's assets, not "asked", and he would return all the money after the fact.

"How will His Royal Highness King Mu be returned? Do you want to deduct the money from the treasury and return it to the Yun clan after you succeed to the throne? Izuku smiled: "I don't know if King Mu believes it or not, although the Yun family has now given up the Beixi industry, it is only half of the assets of the Nanxi industry, which is more than enough for the national treasury." ”

"This king naturally believes it." King Mu seemed to be full of confidence: "But this king doesn't like to owe debts, and he has borrowed and repaid, so don't worry." ”

Having said that, where did King Kemu find so much cash to return to the Yun family? It's just a polite remark, and I don't think I can take it seriously. She naturally hopes that King Mu can repay the money, but she also knows that if King Mu really becomes the king of a country, and even unifies the north and south, she is afraid that this money will not be returned.

Seeing that the secret talks were so smooth and the big thing had been decided, I had the idea of going. After all, she was a widow, and she stayed in King Mu's mansion for too long, and she was afraid that she would be criticized.

Unexpectedly, King Mu said to stay: "This king has a reluctant request...... The king's side concubine Luan Shu recently slipped and was depressed, and she wanted to ask her wife to explain it. He paused, and then said: "Luanshu's mother's surname is Yun, and she is also a close relative of Lixinhou Mansion. ”

Izuku understood what King Mu meant. He and Luan Shu were both born in the dust, and they both experienced the injury of a slippery tire, so they naturally sympathize with each other. It was okay for King Mu to ask her to persuade Luan, and besides, she also wanted to meet this woman who was as famous as herself in the Fengyue Field.

"Two lonely lips and beaded sleeves", this is the evaluation of Emperor Rui of Beixuansheng on the dance of Luanshu. Only this sentence has made Xiu yearn for it.

So, the two didn't say much, and walked together to the small courtyard where Luan Shu lived. Although King Mu is a dignified prince, and the fiefdom is in Fangzhou, the richest place in Nanxi, his mansion is not luxurious, at least not as good as Lixinhou's mansion. The layout of King Mu's mansion is simple and neat, and there is not a single flower or grass in the mansion, all of which are towering ancient trees, and there are many bamboos.

It is indeed like the style of King Mu. Although this peerless man was born with a charming face that is incomprehensible, he is very tough in his actions.

Because King Mu had already ordered someone to spread the word that a distinguished guest had visited, when the two came to the small courtyard, they saw a graceful woman standing under the eaves of the porch. said that he was graceful, but when he looked at it from afar, he only felt that Luan Shu was too thin.

Izuku looked at her as she walked, and before she got close, she could feel that Luan Shu had a lonely and arrogant body that was difficult to hide, not Mingying-style arrogance and arrogance, nor Yun Xiangrong's pretentiousness.

This is the temperament that only a scholarly family can cultivate. Luan Shu is worthy of being the orphan of Ling Ke, the first virtuous minister of Beixi, who has been cultivated in a good family background since childhood, although he has been in the dust for many years, he is still neither humble nor arrogant.

Out of Xiu suddenly felt close to Luan, she didn't stop her steps, but she said softly to King Mu: "Your Highness has a good eye." ”

Mu Wang's thin lips were pursed, and he only smiled slightly, but did not reply.

The two walked side by side to the eaves of the porch, and Xiu continued to look at Luan Shu. At this time, it was almost sunset, and the pale golden light and shadow swept on Luan Shu's body, making her pale face have a rosy luster. Xu was just slipped because of the tire, her spirit was not good, and a little powder could not hide the haggardness.

If you want to talk about her eyebrows and eyes, Luan Shu is not the best in the world, but she can make the dragon among the two people, Emperor Rui of the North Xuansheng and King Mu of the South, fall in love one after another, which is enough to prove that she is by no means a woman in the world.

Thinking so, Izuku had already seen a look of surprise in Luan's long-awaited eyes. Isn't he amazed by her? Not only amazing, but also admiration and envy.

admired Luan's long-cherished family and her ability to maintain her heart when she was in the dust, and also admired her for daring to help Proton Chen escape at a young age; Envy naturally doesn't need to be said, at least the person Luan Shu loves is still alive, whether it is Chen Xuan or Nie Peihan, they treat her affectionately.

"At the beginning of the Southern Han, the Northern Luan is longing." Today, at this moment, the two famous prostitutes of the north and south of the world have finally seen each other. However, they are no longer the small women they used to be.

One is Mrs. Zhuxiu, the head mother of the Yun family; One is Nan Ximu's side concubine Luan Niangniang. With the carving of the years and the changes of the world, they are destined to become the most popular faces in the troubled times.

Who said that only heroes can cherish each other and hate each other? The same is true for beauties.
