Chapter 52: It Seems Different

After such a delay, it was already close to noon.

Shangguan Yan and Shangguan Bu walked past Shangguan Li, and Shangguan Bu greeted her with a smile, but Shangguan Yan didn't give her a look.

It seems that as remembered, the two have become estranged.

But I don't know if it's Shangguan Li's illusion, she always feels that this eldest sister is a little angry.

Shangguan Yan and Shangguan Xun said a few words, saluted Xuanyuan Ye again, and then quickly left here, looking in the direction of Qiufeng Courtyard.

Shangguan Li sat for a moment, then lowered his head and ate the melons and fruits.

This so-called birthday banquet is really boring, if she didn't want to see what Zhang Yuanniang wanted to do at the birthday ceremony, she would have gone back to Lingshui Pavilion to study her poison.

Fortunately, the arrival of Xuanyuan Night had another advantage, that is, everyone here did not dare to let him wait for a long time, and the feast, which was supposed to start at noon, was advanced by a full hour.

The people on the stage have already been invited down, and they are arranged into an exquisite high hall, with two chairs placed on it, one is Shangguan Xun's, and the other has nothing to do with Zhang Yuanniang, but a quaint small box.

Shangguan Li looked at the box a little distracted.

Historically, only the wife of the orthodox family can show up in front of outsiders, even if Zhang Yuanniang is already the de facto hostess of the Prime Minister's Mansion at this time, but her reputation is still not smooth.

Shangguan Xun didn't know what to think, and he hadn't thought about helping Zhang Yuanniang to the status of a wife for so many years.

So she didn't have the right to sit there.

In that box was Qiyi's ashes.

It is also the mother of this body.

Even if Shangguan Li and Qi Yi don't have a mother-daughter relationship, the instinctive blood relationship of the body can't help but make her a little moved.

If it weren't for these conspiracies, there would have been a living person there right now.

She was in a state of distraction, and suddenly she felt that her head was dark, and someone was blocking the sunlight that was falling on her.

Shangguan Li looked up, Shangguan Yan?

Shangguan Bu still followed behind her, his expression a little bitter.

"Let's sit here."

After Shangguan Yan finished speaking, he sat down opposite her.

Shangguan Bu may be a person who is born with less courage, he didn't dare to sit next to Shangguan Yan, and he was afraid of being frightened by Shangguan Li's face, so he had to sit tremblingly in the middle of the two.

But as soon as he sat down, he regretted it, and the faces of both of them could be seen clearly from this angle!

Shangguan Li's hand to send something to her mouth paused slightly, didn't she say that Shangguan Yan couldn't wait to be far away from her?

"Well, third sister, there is no place anywhere else."

Shangguan Bu probably saw her doubts, rubbed the orange in his hand and explained.

Now there are only two tables in the field that are not sitting slowly, one is the table of Xuanyuan Night, most people are not qualified to sit with him, and the two who are qualified do not dare to stick too close to him.

The other one is Shangguan Li, who respects Xuanyuan Ye and dislikes her.

No one wants to eat in front of a demon-like face.

But Shangguan Yan and Shangguan Bu had no choice because they came back late.

This second brother's ability to observe words and expressions is really good, she just hesitated for a moment, and he saw it.

Shangguan Li couldn't help but glance at him more.

Then she saw Shangguan Bu's hand shake, and with a "snap", the orange was pinched flat like a water balloon, and the orange juice flowed from his hand to the table.

Shangguan Bu: "......"

Shangguan Li narrowed his eyes, is his face so lethal?

In this case, how could Xuanyuan Ye still smile at her face with her?

Shangguan Li's squinted eyes suddenly widened, it is said that he is twenty-five years old this year, and there is no sign of getting married, is it because of his special taste?

"You...... Did you really move out and get your Majesty's appreciation? ”

Just when she was secretly shocked, Shangguan Yan stopped looking at her face at some point and asked such a sentence.

Before Shangguan Li could speak, Shangguan Bu's face changed first, as if he wanted to say something but was afraid to say it because of Shangguan Yan's obscenity, and his expression gradually distorted.

Shangguan Li, who didn't know why, even thought that he had eaten a dead fly.

Shangguan Yan's gaze was different from that of ordinary women, with a kind of awe that came from the battlefield.

But Shangguan Li looked back at her without fear, and said as a matter of course.

"yes."

At that moment, the expression on Shangguan Yan's face was very exciting, as if there were a lot of emotions mixed in it, but it calmed down in an instant.

Shangguan Li, whose skills of looking at the face and mind were almost full, didn't have time to see more clearly, and the only thing that was certain was that in addition to surprise, there were other emotions in it.

Shangguan Yan asked again.

"And what is the purpose of your return this time? You shouldn't have any memories of the people in this prime minister's house. ”

"If you want to go back, you can go back, there is such a thing as a purpose, if you want to know, shouldn't you check it yourself?"

Shangguan Li's tone of voice was a little cold, but Shangguan Yan didn't seem to be angry, and just nodded thoughtfully.

How is this person different from what I remember?

Shangguan Li frowned imperceptibly, in Shangguan Yan, she couldn't feel the kind of hostility that Zhang Yuanniang and Shangguan Yue had towards her.

But there is also a possibility that she is well disguised.

Seeing that the two of them stopped talking, Shangguan Bu finally had a chance to interject.

"Eldest sister, what kind of gift did you prepare for your father, you didn't let me know all the way, let me be a reference?"

Shangguan Yan glanced at him, and his tone was not so good.

"The broadsword snatched from the leader of the barbarians of the West."

As she spoke, she pointed to the knife standing next to the stage as tall as a man.

The back of the knife was very thick, and a fine iron as wide as a palm reflected the cold light, and the tip of the knife sank slightly into the bluestone slab.

At first glance, it is not something that a normal person can pick up.

Shangguan Bu: "......"

The eldest sister seems to have forgotten that her father is a civil official, not to mention the big knife, he doesn't know how to hold the dagger.

"Good knives."

Shangguan Li solved the last piece of pastry on the table, and then opened his mouth to praise it.

Shangguan Yan's eyes immediately lit up, turned his head and looked at her deeply, and said leisurely.

"Your eyes are more useful than Shangguan Bu's."

This really doesn't seem like a serious boast, but Shangguan Li accepted it with peace of mind and said politely.

"Average."

The two of them look like each other at the moment, and they actually have a little bit of confidant sympathy.

Shangguan Bu, the only injured person, didn't dare to speak, so his eyes wandered between the two, and finally revealed a hidden smirk.

He couldn't help but ask.

"By the way, third sister, what kind of gift did you prepare?"
