Chapter 23: From now on, he and I are strangers
That's right, Meng Qing used to like to chase Qi Yuan, even if he was disgusted, she still liked him.
All this liking comes from her sense of victory and defeat, she hates Meng Yu, and she can't wait to snatch away all the good things around her, the lover of the throne......
But now it's different, she has long lost her feelings for Qi Yuan, and the only one she likes is Shen Hanzhang.
Meng Qing smiled, "Second sister, Qingqing doesn't like Qi Yuan now, how he is, it has nothing to do with me." ”
A warm breeze blew faintly outside the window, raising the girls' long hair and waist-length black hair.
A hint of surprise flashed in Meng Yao's eyes.
"You...... Don't like Qi Yuan anymore? ”
She still can't believe it, after all, Meng Qing used to like Qi Yuan to the point where she can't extricate herself!
Meng Qing nodded.
As if she had some earth-shattering news, she suddenly smiled with relief.
"That's good, knowing that you can think about it, my sister doesn't want to mention how happy she is."
“……”
Shed crocodile tears.
Towards noon, the bell struck lightly and made a reverent sound.
After Yun He cleaned up the things on the table for Meng Qing, he was just about to step out of the fast to go to school when he bumped into Xiao Yan head-on.
Meng Qing was taken aback.
"Taifu, why are you back?"
Xiao Yan is different from the past today, wearing a red official robe, embroidered with flying cranes and auspicious clouds, which makes him handsome and handsome, and has an excellent temperament.
He said calmly: "Qi Yuan is going to go to Yunnan with Meng Yuan. ”
So that's what happened.
"I know."
Meng Qing's expression was so plain that she couldn't even catch a trace of sadness and sadness in her eyes.
Xiao Yan was surprised, "Aren't you sad?" ”
“???”
Why did one or two come to ask her if she was sad?
Dare to love, it's better for her to cry on the spot now and show them, right?
"Not sad."
Xiao Yan thought she was pretending to be strong.
"You don't have to be so reckless, if you want to cry, cry out."
“……”
Cry you big-headed ghost!
She tried her best to explain: "Taifu, I think you misunderstood, I don't like Qi Yuan now, whether he goes or stays, who he likes and who he doesn't like, it doesn't have much to do with me." From now on, he and I will be strangers. ”
"You really don't like him anymore?"
"I don't like it."
Meng Qing shook his head, his whole face full of resistance.
"That'll be fine."
Fortunately, Xiao Yan can understand people's words, and Meng Qing happily takes a step to leave.
Xiao Yan asked another question.
"Who do you like now?"
Meng Qing paused.
"Do I have to have someone I like?"
Weird.
Xiao Yan seems to have some serious illness today.
He lowered his head and smiled, "The minister just asked." ”
Meng Qing couldn't help but roll her eyes in her heart, her face was well-behaved and calm, "Ask?" Taifu, you are so strange today, did you do something wrong? ”
Xiao Yan, who was poked in the center, swallowed his dry throat.
His lips were slightly red, "The minister doesn't have it, but I'm worried that His Highness won't be able to think about it." ”
Qi Yuan will intercede, and he will be transferred to Yunnan by the saint, which is his masterpiece.
He was just worried that if Meng Qing still liked Qi Yuan, he would definitely be very sad and depressed when he heard this.
Now it's okay, she doesn't like Qi Yuan anymore, and he doesn't have to worry about Meng Qing getting angry when he learns that this matter is his doing.
Meng Qing looked left and right, up and down, and always felt that Xiao Yan had something to hide from her.
"Don't tell me, Qi Yuan did this, you did it!"
She guessed wildly, after all, Xiao Yan didn't come to teach them today.
Xiao Yan flatly denied it, "No." ”
Meng Qing frowned, still having some doubts in his heart.
Could it be that Qi Yuan died by himself?
Yes!
She just remembered that she seemed to have asked Qi Yuan to intercede yesterday, could it be that her words kicked Qi Yuan to Yunnan?
I really didn't expect that someone would really do what she said nonsense, Qi Yuan is really a fool!
Meng Qing couldn't hold back, and laughed out loud.
Xiao Yan hooked his lips, "Are you hungry?" ”
She nodded.
"The minister brought some pastries from the imperial front, try them?"
Gozen?
When Meng Qing heard this, his eyes lit up.
You must know that the imperial chefs around the emperor are all top cooks, and the things made by the chefs who are in charge of the princess's diet are not as delicious as those made by the imperial chefs!
"Taste! I'll taste it for Taifu! ”
Su Zhou carried a food box with vermilion red paint and handed it to Meng Qing, Meng Qing was so hungry that his stomach growled, and after taking the food box, he took it into the study and opened it to eat.
The first layer is glutinous rice mochi, the second layer is soft and crispy Bazhen cake, and the third layer is melt-in-your-mouth osmanthus cheese.
She picked up a rice mochi and was about to stuff it into her mouth, when suddenly, she seemed to think of something, and her small mouth was a little sluggish.
Xiao Yan......
He's not going to poison it, is he......
Meng Qing raised his eyes hesitantly and stared at him with a smile.
She handed the soft rice mochi in her hand to his lips.
"Taifu, you eat first."
The crumbs of the rice mochi stained his lips, soft and cold.
Little girl, she also knows how to honor him.
He opened his mouth and took a small bite, only to accidentally touch her warm fingertips.
The touch was like an electric shock, prompting her to subconsciously withdraw her jade hand.
Meng Qing remembered the experience of that night again, and buried her head shyly, staring at the embroidered shoes.
Xiao Yan saw her appearance in his eyes, chewed the small piece of rice mochi in his mouth, stretched out his fingertips and wiped his lips with fine crumbs.
"Your Highness, eat first, the minister is not hungry."
He saw the little girl's embarrassment and did not continue to embarrass her.
"Oh, oh......"
The girl sat down on the table and began to eat on her own.
Xiao Yan watched silently from the side, as if he was staring at his little daughter, showing a fatherly smile.
Meng Qing ate a few bites of rice mochi and a few bites of Bazhen cake, but only the osmanthus cheese was reserved for the end.
He asked, "Do you like to drink osmanthus cheese?" ”
Meng Qing nodded like pounding garlic.
He could see her preferences at a glance.
"I like it, when Yue Niangniang was here, she often made osmanthus cheese for me, and the osmanthus cheese she made was the best thing in the world!"
"Yue Niangniang?"
Meng Qing's eating speed paused for a moment.
"Oh yes, Taifu, you shouldn't know ...... Yue Niangniang"
Xiao Yan was silent.
He really didn't know who Yue Niangniang was......
"Yue Niangniang is my mother's Jinlan, but unfortunately when I was seven years old, she died......"
The little girl's words became shallow, small as mosquitoes and flies, and there was some sadness and sourness hidden in her tone.
The next moment, tears gradually swirled in the little girl's eyes, and the tip of her nose was slightly red, innocent and pitiful.
Xiao Yan's fingertips stiffened slightly.
Why do you cry when you eat well......
Could it be that Yue Niangniang is really so important to her?
He said: "What are you crying for, it's useless!" ”
Meng Qing pursed her mouth and cried even more sadly.
Yun He was anxious on the side, and she said, "Mrs. Xiao! Yue Niangniang is the person His Royal Highness has been most concerned about for so many years, you ......"
also scolded her for being unproductive......
