Chapter Ninety-Five: Gossip
Chen Nian heard that it was Zheng Lun's voice, so he replied, "It's me." ”
Zheng Lun outside seemed to be a little surprised, stood in the distance, brushed off the hanging wicker and walked over. Chen Nian hurriedly stood up from the ground, wiped the tears on his face indiscriminately, and said to him: "It's Commander Zheng, it's me, Xie Chennian." ”
Zheng Lun stopped a few steps in front of Chen Nian and asked, "Miss Xie, what are you doing here?"
"If you have nothing to do, you just sit alone." Chen Nian replied, she paused, and then asked, "You came from Ace,"
"Yes." Zheng Lun replied briefly, and then was speechless. He had a very bad impression of Chen Nian, at first he just thought that she was frivolous in her words and deeds, and she was a hippie smile at everyone, but later when he saw that she and Ye Xiaoqi were so close in front of people, he decided that she was misbehaving. Who knew that when they met again, she turned into a concubine of the prince again. This kind of behavior is already a water-based Yang Hua in his eyes, but the prince still likes her so much, and even Miss Yunsheng is estranged for her.
Thinking of this, Zheng Lun unconsciously raised his sword eyebrows and said lightly: "If Miss Xie has no other instructions, Zheng Lun will retreat first." ”
Chen Nian called him out loud, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Commander Zheng, who are the people who Ah Ce is inviting to the banquet tonight?"
Zheng Lun replied: "The twelve sons of the He family, General Xue and Miss Xue Family, and Miss Yunsheng. ”
Chen Nian had already vaguely heard a woman talking and laughing over there, and she thought it was a singer who accompanied the banquet, but she didn't want to be the young lady of Yunsheng and the Xue family. She was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and asked, "It's not someone in the army,"
"It's not." Zheng Lun replied.
Chen Nian pursed her lips, turned around and walked towards Feng Junyang's courtyard, Zheng Lun's figure flickered suddenly, and someone stopped in front of her, and asked indifferently: "Miss Xie, where are you going?"
Chen Nian replied, "I'll go to find Ace." ”
Zheng Lun said coldly: "You can't go." ”
Chen Nian was very surprised, and couldn't help but raise his eyes to look at him, and said strangely: "Since it's not a banquet for people in the army, and there are Yunsheng and them, why can't I go?"
Zheng Lun frowned with some disgust, and said in his heart, this person is so uninteresting, how can a person of your identity be compared to Miss Yunsheng. He didn't want to say too much to her, so he simply said, "You are different from Miss Yunsheng, since the prince has not told you to go over, you can't go." ”
Chen Nian's anger in his heart was aroused by his words, and he said angrily: "Why should I listen to his orders, I can go if I want, who can stop me?"
As she spoke, she reached out to dial Zheng Lun, Zheng Lun took a step sideways to avoid her hand, and Chen Nian took the opportunity to flash him, but he stopped him again after not going far. Chen Nian was very annoyed, and asked him in a cold voice, "Zheng Lun, what do you want to do?"
Zheng Lun didn't understand why he behaved like this, but he didn't want Chen Nian to go to that banquet in his heart. In his heart, the prince and Miss Yunsheng are good couples, and he forcibly sandwiched this woman in, which can only ruin this marriage. Besides, a good girl like Miss Yunsheng, how could she be bullied by this person, Zheng Lun's heart was biased first, and the words he said were very ugly, "Miss Xie, please respect yourself." Since the prince didn't order you to serve the banquet, he invited you,"
Chen Nian was furious, and before he could finish speaking, he waved his palm at him. Zheng Lun didn't want to make a move with her, so he only dodged left and right with his hands. Chen Nian was even more angry when she saw this, and the moves in her hands became more and more ruthless, only her kung fu was much different from Zheng Lun, and she made a few moves in a row, but she didn't even touch a corner of Zheng Lun's clothes.
was fighting, but he heard another voice coming from the distance, and the two of them were slightly stunned, Chen Nian took the lead in coming back to his senses, and took the opportunity to slap Zheng Lun on the chest. She slapped her quite hard, Zheng Lun was a little annoyed, reached out and clamped her arms on both sides, pulled her behind the willow tree, and shouted in a low voice: "Don't make a sound,"
Chen Nian has never been an honest and obedient person, and he didn't dare to really hurt himself, so he opened his mouth and was about to refute, but before he could speak, Zheng Lun's fingers had already pinched her throat, and as soon as she vomited slightly, she couldn't speak immediately.
The sound of distant voices approached, and two maids, one with a lantern in her hand, and the other with a small wine jar in her arms, walked slowly along the winding path. Then the maid with the lantern sighed softly, "Alas, you don't know how long it has been since our girl has been so happy. Since the old general was killed, our girl has never seen a smile on her face, and our wife has been washing her face with tears all day long, just afraid that the second son will marry our girl indiscriminately. ”
Another person persuaded him: "Isn't it all out, it will be fine in the future, when you stay in the capital, there will be a concubine to call the shots in everything." ”
The maid carrying the lantern slowed down when she heard this, and said in a low voice: "What if you come out, no matter how good the concubine is, after all, she is also a sister separated by a few layers, and there is no old general to rely on, what good fate can there be,"
"It's always a son of a family." The other comforted.
"The difference between the sons of this family is also big, there are several sons of the family in the world who are worthy of this prince and your twelve princes," the maid with the lantern pointed to the courtyard of Feng Junyang, and said with envy: "That is, your girl has a good life, one is a cousin who is closer than her own brother, and the other is a future husband who is sure of it." ”
The maid holding the wine jar hurriedly reprimanded in a low voice: "Don't talk nonsense, where can this kind of thing be said nonsense." ”
"Nonsense, which sentence is nonsense, everyone knows that the prince has not married until now, just waiting for your girl and Lu. You Fenghe two families must be married, these two are talented women, and they are uncles and cousins, a pair made in heaven, what can not be said about this, but I heard that only when the prince returns to Yunxi, he will go to your Taixing to ask for marriage,"
The maid holding the wine jar grabbed her companion, looked back and forth, and then whispered: "Alas, you just came here and didn't know that there is a woman in the rivers and lakes next to the prince now, who hurts like an eyeball, and she ignores the rules and humility, and even asks our girl to call that woman sister." The one in our family is too simple to be simple, look at everyone is a good person, as soon as the prince said, she was really stupid to call someone sister. ”
Her companion quenched disdainfully, and said: "It's just a fox, these things, which master doesn't have them around, don't worry, don't worry about your girl, you have to be sent away early." ”
"It's not like it can be sent away, the prince is really fond of that woman, I heard that they all lived together and were inseparable earlier, but recently it has been better, and she has been divided into a yard to live in."
"This is a favor but not a heavy one," the maid sneered, "think about it, if you really have the heart to accept her, how can you not care about her reputation, just like this, but the bright road is placed in the house, I see it is just a plaything when the master is idle, because it is a little wild from the mountains, the prince of the world feels fresh for a while." ”
The two of them whispered and walked away, until they were completely out of sight, Zheng Lun couldn't help but sigh softly, and was about to loosen the suppression of Chen Nian, but suddenly a drop of water fell on his hand, he was stunned, and then he reacted that this was Chen Nian's tears. He suddenly felt that the tears were very hot, and he let go of the hand clamped on Chen Nian's throat in a little panic, and took a step back.
Chen Nian's voice trembled faintly, and he asked him: "Feng Junyang wants to marry Yunsheng,"
For some reason, Zheng Lungang was still upset about Yunsheng, but at this moment, he felt that Chen Nian was also very pitiful, and he didn't know how to answer her question for a while.
Chen Nian flashed him and rushed out, Zheng Lun wanted to stop again, her hand brushed over her waist, her wrist flipped, and a few shiny darts were already buckled in her palm, and she shouted coldly: "Zheng Lun, if you dare to stop me again, don't blame me for being rude,"
Although she said this, she had unceremoniously shot out a few darts in her hand, and just when Zheng Lun was dodging the darts, Chen Nianren rushed to the stone road and shouted: "There are assassins, there are assassins,"
Zheng Lun was shocked, he never expected Chen Nian to shout such words. The dark guards on duty in the four places were already alarmed, and suddenly several figures flew quickly towards this side, Chen Nian pointed to Zheng Lun in the shadow of the willow tree and shouted to the secret guards who rushed over: "The assassin is there." ”
Where would the dark guard suspect her words, and hurriedly swung his sword forward. Zheng Lunzheng was annoyed, forced back the approaching dark guard with one palm, and shouted coldly: "It's me,"
The secret guards who came before and after were all stunned, and said strangely: "Commander Zheng,"
Zheng Lun pushed a few people away with a dark face, and then saw that Chen Nian's figure was already far away, even if she chased her, she couldn't stop her, so she had no choice but to give up.
Chen Nian was afraid that Zheng Lun would stop him again, so he rushed to the outside of Feng Junyang's courtyard, just in time for Shunping to hurry out of it with a few guards, Shunping saw that Chen Nian was running in a hurry, and when she really met the assassin, she hurriedly asked: "Miss Xie, where is the assassin?"
Chen Nian raised his hand and pointed behind him, and said urgently without thinking: "Just over there in the willow forest, the assassin is very powerful, Zheng Lun is seriously injured, you go over quickly,"
I heard that even Zheng Lun was seriously injured, and his complexion changed greatly, so he couldn't think about it carefully for a while, and hurriedly said: "Miss Xie will die soon, and the little one will bring someone over to take a look." ”
Chen Nian nodded and strode into the courtyard. Because it was a summer night, the feast was not set up in the hall, but in the pavilion in the backyard. Chen Nian walked around the verandah, and as soon as he stepped on the stone bridge, he saw the scene in the pavilion.
There was only one table in the pavilion, and there were several young men and women sitting around, Feng Junyang was in the center, and on both sides were He Ze and Xue Shengying, and then there was Yun Sheng and another eyed girl, who was similar in age to Yun Sheng, wearing a very plain dress, and was whispering something with Yun Sheng.
said that it was a wine banquet, but three of the five people were not allowed to drink, Xue Shengying and Xue Xian'er were still in filial piety, and Feng Junyang did not drink because of his body, and he held a cup of tea like the Xue brothers and sisters. He Zeti poured himself a glass of wine, looked around at everyone, and finally had to raise his glass to Yun Sheng, and said with a smile: "Those three are all decorations, yes, let's have a drink with our brothers and sisters." ”
Yun Sheng waved his hand and said seriously: "Brother Twelve, don't talk stupidly, won't the two of us drink it into a nest fight, and let them watch the excitement in vain." ”
Everyone laughed, but Feng Junyang only bent the corners of his lips shallowly. He Ze looked at him like this, stretched out his hand and put it on his shoulder, and teased him pointedly: "Jun Yang is still worried about the assassin, don't say that he can't break into here, but if he really comes, just because Sheng Ying and I are here, he can still please him,"
