Chapter 119: Southern Courtyard
Back at the girls' seat, the field was lively, the sons and daughters on the high platform were cheering for the girls below, and Ye Lingwu's eyes were turning.
The sixth princess went to Shen Zhan's tent, and she didn't know what to say, and after a while, she came out with a cold face, but she was cute and round, but her expression was fierce, which completely destroyed her original good appearance, and the two female envoys who were traveling with her were so frightened that they didn't dare to come out.
It is said that it is difficult to serve the nobles of the high gate, Ye Lingwu has been in the capital for a long time, but he has not seen a few difficult to serve, and these six princesses are the first. Wait, she'll settle today's accounts.
On the women's table, Old Lady Shen was talking to several noble ladies with unfamiliar faces, and Qin Mingyu was listening quietly with a tea bowl on the side.
The flowers decorated with the ceiling were dappled through the daylight, and the faint shadows fell on her face without traces of age, noble and with sharp gentleness.
At this moment, I saw Zhao's figure walking around the sidelines, talking and laughing with Jiang Wangshu, probably because these two people have a bookish atmosphere, compared to Shen Ci, these two are more like a pair of mother and son.
At the mention of Shen Ci, Ye Lingwu looked at the grassland below, the red-clothed young man who had finished playing polo turned over and dismounted and walked to the sidelines, and a large group of girls hula cheered around the field, shouting and asking for warmth.
He has always been wanton and chic, and the stars are arching over the moon.
Ye Lingwu was slightly distracted, and his palms were cold.
The girl's seat suddenly broke out in an uproar.
Ye Lingwu followed the sound and looked, it turned out that Shen Zhan had ended.
The pace is like the wind, Ye Lingwu can only feel what it means not to be angry and self-righteous in him, obviously separated by a hundred meters, but he can still be shocked by his domineering momentum.
Shen Zhan played polo, and he was out of the limelight without any suspense.
The cries of the girls on the high platform continued, but the sons and daughters on the field were tired and panting by Shen Zhan's unsparing play.
This is a game of ball, it's a battlefield fight!
Ye Lingwu's eyes were also attracted by Shen Zhan, and she didn't know if it was an illusion, she seemed to meet his gaze when Shen Zhan was down, there were many girls in the girl's seat, and when she saw Shen Zhan looking at the girl's seat, she screamed again and again.
The polo match was over, and the carriages outside the court rushed towards the city one after another, and it was already evening when Ye Lingwu returned to the Ningbei Hou Mansion, and Shen Zhan's carriage did not follow back to the palace, but went directly to the palace, saying that it was His Majesty's urgent edict.
After a tired day, Mrs. Shen and Mama Xuan didn't talk much, and let a few little girls go back to the dormitory early to rest.
Ye Lingwu fell crooked on the soft couch and sulked alone.
Since entering Beijing, the reason why he has been bullied every time is because of Shen Zhan, how innocent!
At this moment, I saw Rong Xiu suddenly striding in from outside, gently and quietly beside Ye Lingwu, pressing her ear and whispering a few words.
“…… What! Ye Lingwu was stunned, suddenly stood up from the soft couch, and said incredibly, "Master Hou is looking for me, didn't he go to the palace, why did he return to the house so soon?" ”
Rong Xiu shook her head: "The slave doesn't know." ”
Ye Lingwu frowned lightly and hesitated: "...... Did you really let me go to the South Courtyard? ”
Rong Xiu nodded firmly and said, "Sure." ”
Ye Lingwu said: "Then what did he say?" ”
Rong Xiu's expression was puzzled: "The slave maid was so scared when she saw General Yue Yang, she didn't dare to ask, so she came directly to you." Girl, let's go quickly. ”
Ye Lingwu was stunned for a moment, and looked out of the dark window in silence. On this big night, she didn't say anything, if the lonely men and widows spread out, the girls who came to her in the whole capital to "seek revenge" would have to line up from the south gate to the north gate
"I'm not going!" Ye Lingwu didn't have a good breath and said, "If you go back to General Yue Yang, just say that this matter is not appropriate, if you have something to say, you will say it tomorrow morning, no, if you have something to say, you will say it in front of the old lady." ”
Anyway, she made up her mind to stay away from Shen Zhan, and after today's events, she understood that not only a red face can cause trouble, but also a blue face can cause trouble.
Rong Xiu was entangled, pursed her lips and said: "The slave's first reaction was to refuse for the girl, but General Yue Yang left directly after leaving a word." ”
Ye Lingwu frowned slightly: "What words?" ”
Rong Xiu buried his head, and stopped talking: "General Yue Yang said, if you don't go to the appointment, he will come to you in person, and you have to tie it up, and when the time comes, it will be known all over the capital, don't blame him for not knowing etiquette, and ...... Only give you a quarter of an hour. ”
"What does he mean, is he threatening me again?"
Ye Ling was furious. But then I remembered the first time I saw the building ship, Yue Yang volleyed down from the second deck of the building ship and told her to "get out of the way".
This person looks at the five big and three coarse, and his style of action is also five big and three coarse.
Maybe he can really do this lack of virtue, didn't he threaten him in Xueyue Qinyuan last time, this person didn't have any pity for Shen Zhan!!
Heroes don't suffer immediate losses.
Ye Lingwu turned over and stayed at the house, and immediately ran outside the house! Without the slightest hesitation.
Rong Xiu almost didn't keep up.
The night was dark, and the gate of the South Courtyard was still deserted.
Ye Lingwu and Rong Xiu cautiously walked along the corridor to the main house, and as soon as they stepped into the courtyard, they saw two columns of black flag guards guarding the door, and even Yue Yang held his head high, standing at the gate with his hands behind his back, his eyes looking straight ahead, his eyes were cold.
I didn't know and thought I was in the barracks.
The master and servant paused, shrank behind the pillar, and looked at each other. Hesitating whether to go over or not.
The pomp and circumstance of the South Courtyard tonight is like going to the Hongmen Banquet, or the kind of ambush on all sides, the kind of life and death.
"Girl, why do you think the atmosphere is weird?" Rong Xiu approached Ye Lingwu and whispered in a low voice.
Forget it, she has been serving in the Ningbei Hou Mansion for almost four years, but the number of times she has seen Shen Zhan is only a handful, but since following Ye Lingwu, the number of times she has seen Shen Zhan has risen in a straight line.
Ye Lingwu was also confused, vaguely thinking of going to Zhao Prison that day, and the prison gate was full of prison envoys, which was terrifying, and now it was even better.
In her previous life, she must have done a great evil, and she was still angry because of the events in the polo match in the afternoon, but when she saw this kind of battle, her heart was completely angry.
I really have no backbone at all.
“…… Okay, sit upright, not to mention that General Yue Yang personally came to invite us tonight. Ye Lingwu comforted herself.
Rong Xiu hesitated, and the word "please" seemed to be a little wrong.
"Hurry up, the quarter of an hour is almost up." Ye Lingwu was also afraid of Yue Yang, and pulled Rong Xiu to show up.
The master and servant walked cautiously, facing the candlelight in the room, and raised their arms towards the "army" on the corridor with a smile: "Meet General Yue Yang......
"My cousin is here." Yue Yang interrupted, stiffly smiling and bowing back to Ye Lingwu under the corridor. The Black Flag Guards behind him followed in unison.
Ye Lingwu's shoulders shrank, his pupils dilated in disbelief, and he said, "...... General Yue Yang was polite. ”
When the words fell, he saw Yue Yang raise his hand, and he also followed to the side, and said, "The young lord has been waiting for a long time, please come inside the cousin." ”
Yue Yang led the master and servant into the main house, walked through the screen, the windows on all sides of the room were opened, and there were copper basins placed in the four air outlets, and some ice cubes were placed in them.
Under the flower window, Shen Zhan sat on the side of the Luohan chair, his eyes lowered and he didn't know what he was thinking, he seemed to have deliberately dressed up, a single robe, and a green bamboo crown.
