Chapter 22: The Battle (Part II)

As soon as Dong Xuan walked in, Yang Ze immediately found that the eyes of many people around him naturally fell on him.

The previous affairs of the two of them were also boiling in the royal capital, but recently everyone has focused on the rumors of Dong Xuan and Zhao Jin, and basically ignored Yang Ze. After all, this is a very logical thing, there are many circles on the high-level stage of the royal capital, and different people will stage different dramas every day, back and forth, it is far easier to forget a person than to remember a person. If it weren't for Yang Ze's original appearance in the Red Mansion, I'm afraid everyone would have forgotten him faster.

For the nobles of Shanglin, the most frustrating thing is not that others remember their own foolishness, or a certain undignified performance. Rather, it is gradually forgotten by the masses, which represents the decay of power and the loss of status.

However, Yang Ze didn't care about this, he was at ease with this, and hoped that everyone would think that others were harmless.

Yang Ze looked at his eldest brother, Yang Que shook his head, and the second brother Yang Wenyuan also shrugged, indicating that he did not know about her arrival.

Qi Jianlin stabbed Yang Ze from behind, thinking that Yang Ze would be extremely depressed when he saw Dong Xuan now, and said in a low voice, "It doesn't matter, there are no beauties in the world, brother, I believe that you will definitely be able to meet better ones in the future, but then again, there are only a handful of people who can have the appearance and temperament of Miss Dong," said and took Yang Ze's shoulders and sighed, " Forget it, now the whole king feels that there are countless people who are qualified to snatch her from Zhao Jin's hands, we are naturally not that kind, there are drunken people today, and it is good not to think about those illusory things. ”

Yang Ze was dumbfounded, thinking to himself that you kid is comforting me, or is you stabbing me with a soft knife in disguise? It's really hard to imagine that this obscene appearance is actually the son of Qi Leyi, who is unparalleled in Da Ye [***].

Dong Xuan stepped in, and there were many princes and nobles around him who were not exaggerated. But the mood did change with her arrival. That's all there is to it, which makes some of the women present a little jealous or unreveling.

Wang Zheng, who has never paid attention to anyone, stepped down in person and stood side by side with Dong Xuan until he sent her to the seat, showing the enthusiasm that he rarely showed in arrogance. Dong Xuan's family is a high-ranking official in the military department, and they are in the same system as Wang Zheng, so it can be said that they have known each other since childhood, and the relationship between the two sides is excellent. Even some of Wang Zheng's friends know Dong Xuan through him.

"I thought you wouldn't come, so I always felt that something was wrong in the Yanchun Pavilion today, and then I thought that in the past, when we drank tea here, we all had you, but today you didn't come, but there was a lack of taste. After a pause, Wang Zheng glanced at Yang Ze, and continued in a low voice, "Don't be in a bad mood because of some people and things when you come today, this is not like your Miss Dong." ”

"Then what do you think I look like," Dong Xuan followed his gaze, saw Yang Ze in the corner, turned around, the corners of his rosy lips rose, and smiled at Wang Zheng, "If you know me, then you should understand that I will never be angry about some senseless things." ”

Zhang Cha'er, the best friend who came with Dong Xuan, also immediately spoke, and said angrily, "Originally, should he Yang Ze do that just to win impression points, so that people think that he is majestic and tall, so that our family Dong Xuan will be impressed by him?"

Wang Zheng shrugged his shoulders, noncommittal, and returned to the main seat. With the arrival of Dong Xuan, the audience was obviously much more active.

She is quite knowledgeable about music and calligraphy. After taking a seat, he talked with everyone in a tactful and beautiful voice. Its shape is like a spring breeze, its god is as gorgeous as a summer flower, and even watching her light smile during small talk is a kind of enjoyment.

Speaking of the halfway, some people even knocked on the side to dig deeper into her current relationship with Zhao Jin, the prince of Changchun.

But whenever Zhao Jin is mentioned, Dong Xuan will either blush, or smile silently, and avoid talking about it, but just this demeanor makes many people have some unbearable itching in their chests. Being able to really pick this royal capital is the dream of many men in Shanglin.

If such an honor befalls Zhao Jin, then Wang Du Shanglincheng estimates that there will be too many drunken and sad teenagers overnight, and there will be too many admiring young people's love that has not been vented, so that it will cause social instability.

Seeing Dong Xuan smile under the words of obvious affection and admiration from several princes, Zhang Cha'er frowned, took a moment to whisper in her ear, "What do you think? Since you don't want the Qichun Houfu to put pressure on you, and you are with Zhao Jin Shizi again." That Zhao Shizi is only twenty-four years old, and he is the cultivation of the second grade of the Qi Sea Realm, and his talent is rare. And most importantly, he's very nice to you, very good."

Dong Xuan glared at Zhang Cha'er fiercely, worried that this appearance would ruin her image, and immediately replied to her ladylike appearance, "What do you want to say?"

Zhang Cha'er said, "The question is, since you have already made a plan, why did you make a special trip to come here today when you heard that Yang Ze was here." Although I understand that you are not so superficial as to remember what happened in the Red Mansion in your heart, you don't need to make a special trip to him today. Did the way he looked at him really change your opinion of him?"

Dong Xuan lowered her head slightly, shook her head slightly, and said, "After this, he has suffered a lot of pressure. His father was not liked by his grandfather, and Yang Ze's cultivation qualifications were extremely mediocre, coupled with my choice, his family's status in the Hou Mansion was even worse, I am afraid that I can't raise my head I just feel that all this is caused by me, and I need to do my best to make up for something."

Next, there were many people trying to ease the relationship between Yang Ze and Dong Xuan, laughing at the two, and the atmosphere became for a while, and the two sides didn't seem to feel as stiff as before.

Because Dong Xuan and his entourage wanted to go home earlier, after chatting with everyone in the teahouse for a few days, they immediately got up and said goodbye to everyone.

Yang Ze saw Zhang Cha'er in a light green dress come to him, and said with a reluctant expression on his face, "She wants to say a few words to you in private." ”

Yang Ze looked out, and Dong Xuan, who had said goodbye to everyone, was standing in the courtyard outside the tearoom, and the light blue shadow loomed through the clear gauze tent.

Yang Ze walked out of the teahouse behind him with a crowd of people competing to guess "Huh", and came to Dong Xuan with a calm face.

Dong Xuan glanced at him, but she was a little angry at his appearance, when she was in the tearoom before, when she mentioned Zhao Jin, she had noticed Yang Ze's expression.

Who knows, it's not the gnashing of teeth she imagined, or any unnaturalness, or the darkness of her expression. Instead, it was calm, and didn't seem to cause any fluctuations in his mind.

A feeling of depression hit Dong Xuan's heart, and there was some inexplicable secret annoyance.

The two of them walked forward in silence for a long time, and seeing that they seemed to be going on, I am afraid that they will part ways in such silence.

Dong Xuan's eyebrows raised slightly, as if she had not disguised herself since she was a child, "You won't say anything?" Or have you become dumb since that day?"

Yang Ze smiled bitterly, "Do we have anything else to say?"

Dong Xuan's bright eyes under the blue shirt stared at Yang Ze, with some anger in her eyes, but then reminded herself to calm down.

So he said coldly, "Knowing that you will soon participate in the family crown ceremony, this is a very important day for you, I hope you can seize this turning point." Don't miss the opportunity to make others value you a few days ago to vacate an item, I don't need it, I don't know who to give it to, I think it may be of some help to your next Chengren crown ceremony. ”

Immediately, Dong Xuan took out the wooden box from his sleeve and handed it to Yang Ze.

If it weren't for seeing Dong Xuan's slender and jade-like hands, with Yang Ze's surname, maybe she wouldn't have picked up this thing that she didn't know who she was going to give him in the end. At the same time, it immediately occurred to me that this woman was delicate, and knew the special meaning of the gift giver, so that she would call him outside so that no one would see it, and thus no one would misunderstand her motives.

Thinking of this, Yang Zeyi immediately made Yang Zeyi happy, played with the wooden box in his hand, raised the corners of his mouth, and said, "Is this a kind of charity, or sympathy for me, a loser?"

Dong Xuan's eyes couldn't help but be angry, her eyes sharpened, and she sneered, "Yang Ze, you can not want it, you can also give it to others casually, or you can even throw it away at any time, it's all inconsequential things anyway." Of course, I'm afraid that without my help, you will be able to pass the Chengren Crown Ceremony smoothly. I wish you were so arrogant!"

After speaking, Dong Xuan ignored Yang Ze's departure, and outside the gate of Yanchun Pavilion, there was already a gorgeous carriage waiting for her best friend Zhang Cha'er for a long time.

Yang Ze, who was still standing in the courtyard, looked at the arrogant blue-shirted girl who turned around and left for a long time, before he shook his head with a wry smile, and casually opened the wooden box in his hand.

In the wooden box, it was the spirit level 8 spirit treasure that he couldn't be more familiar with, and he sold it in the treasure number - "Wild Boar Glove"!

Yang Ze couldn't cry or laugh.
