Chapter 25: A Close Friend in the Boudoir
Zhou Qing's words fell, and Yin's mother and son looked over together, and saw that the man and the woman were walking side by side, and the man's protective posture was obvious.
Although the two did not make any transgressions, the tangled hems of their clothes showed that the distance between the two men was far greater than that of the master and the servant.
Shen Guang's face darkened and he reprimanded.
"What nonsense!"
Yin's eyes lit up, and he didn't know what kind of calculation he had in his heart.
……
Entering the Baohe Palace, most of the people had already arrived, and Shen Li found an inconspicuous position to sit down, not ready to participate in the greetings of the people around him.
There are almost no people in this hall who know Shen Li, and she succeeds in stealing as she wishes.
But people are afraid of something, Shen Li sat down, and suddenly felt as if there were eyes staring at her, she turned her head and saw an "acquaintance".
Wen Xiaoxiao's interest has not been high since she came, and since she came back from Xiangshan, her mother never mentioned the matter of discussing marriage with the Jin family, let alone allowing her to meet Jin Changqing again.
She didn't give up on making trouble for several days, and she was locked up by her mother until today.
Wen Xiaoxiao found a corner and sat down, but she didn't want to stumble into it by mistake, but she met the "culprit".
Her face lost the brilliance of the previous few days, and she was staring at Shen Li resentfully, her eyes unblinking.
Shen Li wanted to pretend not to see it, but her gaze was too hot, she picked up the teacup and pretended to be calm and took a sip, and finally waited for someone to come and talk to Wen Xiaoxiao, diverting her attention.
The person who came was the daughter of King Xian, and now Si Chong's wife, Li Qingyan and Wen Xiaoxiao were also childhood playmates, but after Li Qingyan got married, the two had little contact.
"Xiaoxiao? Why are you sitting here? ”
Li Qingyan's appearance is not amazing, and she is not outstanding among the nobles, but she is quite delicate, especially after becoming a wife, she has a touch of gentle temperament.
Now that the banquet had not yet begun, she took the opportunity to sit next to Wen Xiaoxiao and wanted to chat with her.
Seeing a close friend in the boudoir who she hadn't seen for a long time, Wen Xiaoxiao was finally distracted.
She pursed the corners of her lips and sighed.
"I'm not in the mood to play."
Li Qingyan has heard about her affairs to some extent, if it is someone else's business, she may not care too much, but after all, it is Wen Xiaoxiao, she still said a few more words.
"Your mother will never harm you, and it will never be wrong to listen to her."
She didn't explain the matter, but those who understand naturally do.
Wen Xiaoxiao had no other way now, she had to nod, and just as her eyes wandered, she suddenly caught a glimpse of the golden phoenix hairpin on Li Qingyan's head, which was embedded with a ruby of excellent color.
This hairpin looks inconspicuous at first glance, but at a glance you know that it is the best.
Wen Xiaoxiao felt even more sour in her heart.
"Sister Qingyan, did Brother Zilian buy it for you? He's so nice to you. ”
Wen Xiaoxiao's face was envious, but Li Qingyan's face was a little unnatural, but it was only for a moment, and she quickly returned to normal.
Speaking of Si Zhong, Wen Xiaoxiao didn't know what he thought, and he suddenly came to his senses.
"Sister Qingyan, I heard... Is the general of the Si family really crippled in both legs? ”
There are many people in the Si family who are officials in the court, but there is only one who is a general.
Speaking of Si Yan, Li Qingyan's expression was obviously scruples.
"Who are you listening to?"
Wen Xiaoxiao: "The last time I went to the theater, they all knew. ”
