Chapter 12: Undercurrents
The girl's beautiful and beautiful face had a clear smile, but her crooked eyes were cold to the bone, faintly revealing fierceness, which silenced these nobles who echoed Lin Miaoyin.
Lin Miaoyin turned her back to her, not knowing that Lin Xiyue was behind her, and she still said happily with her eyebrows.
It wasn't until a young lady coughed suggestively twice that she realized something was wrong.
The back is chilly.
She turned her head in confusion and collided with Lin Xiyue's sword-like gaze.
Lin Xiyue was taller than ordinary women, and at this moment, she looked down at this group of noble women with broken mouths, and at the same time raised her hand to sort out the gold tassels hanging from her sideburns.
The red lips outlined a playful arc, and Lin Xiyue took a step closer and asked in a soft tone pretending to be innocent.
"Why didn't you say it? Didn't I come at the right time? ”
These noble ladies were full of contempt and wanton, but at this moment, they were smiling and scattering like a mouse seeing a cat.
But in the blink of an eye, Lin Miaoyin was the only one left.
Lin Xiyue was still smiling: "Sister, keep talking." ”
It was clearly a beautiful face, which fell in Lin Miaoyin's eyes, but it could only make her recall how ruthlessly Lin Xiyue used the handle of a fan to break her body at that time.
Subconsciously shuddered, Lin Miaoyin barely pulled out a gentle smile, and snorted: "That, I ......"
"Can't tell?"
The smile on her lips instantly condensed, and even the anger between her eyebrows became clearer, and Lin Xiyue's fingertips caught Lin Miaoyin's wrist and inadvertently buckled it.
Others seem to be the two sisters holding hands and being intimate, only Lin Miaoyin knows that her wrist bones are about to be crushed, and her face is white in pain.
But today, the high-ranking families gathered, taking into account the etiquette and demeanor, they couldn't exhale painfully, so they could only restrain themselves from struggling in vain.
After admiring Lin Miaoyin's increasingly pale face, a cold sneer sounded in Lin Xiyue's throat, and she lowered her voice to warn.
"If you don't want me to take you to Hualou to experience the taste of those men, just settle down."
Hearing this, Lin Miaoyin's eyes widened in horror: "You let go of me......"
Lin Xiyue smiled and increased her strength.
When Lin Miaoyin couldn't help but let out a short cry of pain, she let go of her hand, and her expression instantly changed from cold to gentle.
Half an hour later, all the guests were seated and the feast began.
The sound of silk and bamboo and the wind come more and more melodious, smell it only feel comfortable, and then look at the sound of the step, the glamorous dancing girl with colorful silk in her arms, the guests present are all satisfied with the smile, and can't help nodding and praising it.
Lin Xiyue was secretly thinking about how to find an opportunity to talk to Xie Ciyu later, when another delicate voice broke into her ears.
"Today's flower banquet is beautiful, I heard that my sister is personally organized, and it costs a lot to think about such a show, which shows that the regent loves and indulges him, which is really enviable."
This is ambiguous, and the word "favor" is more likely to be misunderstood.
After the words were spoken, the eyes of the people present who looked at Ji Xishen and Lin Xiyue instantly became strange.
It has long been rumored that the young lady of the General's Mansion entered the palace without living in her own house, and she must have become the regent's personal favor and confinement, but she was commensurate with brother and sister in front of people, but it was another obscure thought.
Looking at it now, it looks like a real ......
Coldly glaring over the others and falling on Lin Miaoyin, who was jokingly arranging rumors, Lin Xiyue laughed out loud, and after attracting the attention of others, Lang Lang spoke.
"There is no male in the family, and you have lived in the back house for a long time, and it is normal that you can't feel the love of your brother, but you can't get it yourself, so you have to slander others, sister, it seems that your aunt didn't put enough effort into teaching you etiquette on weekdays."
The sarcastic words were like hailstones the size of beans when it rained, crackling and smashing into Lin Miaoyin's face.
Annoyance appeared between her eyebrows, and she was about to speak again, but she caught a glimpse of His Royal Highness's cold gaze, and her heartstrings hesitated.
She coaxed, but Lin Xiyue was not false, her clear eyes were like the flowing water of peach blossoms in spring, pouring out a calm light.
"As for this early summer flower banquet, my brother told him before it was held, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will also participate, and it must be carefully prepared to match His Royal Highness's identity."
As she spoke, she smiled and threw a glimpse at Xie Ciyu: "My brother and I have worked hard to make His Highness comfortable, Your Highness, what do you think of this banquet?" ”
Lin Xiyue has long had a plan in her heart.
In her previous life, she was completely judged by everyone to be Ji Xishen's forbidden because of this banquet, and her reputation was ruined, and she also had a dislike with Xie Ci.
Then this time she threw the conversation to Xie Ciying, his identity was there, as long as he opened his mouth, he could stifle the rumors in his infancy.
It's up to him to buy it or not.
Receiving the girl's watery gaze, Xie Ci's depression disappeared in just a moment.
The corners of his lips unconsciously hooked a shallow arc, he put down the jade cup in his hand and spoke loudly.
"This flower banquet, the regent is the east, Miss Lin is carefully arranged, you brothers and sisters do your best, and you are very satisfied."
The gaze fixed on Lin Xiyue's face softened, and his tone was full of approval.
"Especially the flying dance just now, it's amazing, Miss Lin, you have a heart."
Two sentences of praise can be regarded as favoritism towards Lin Xiyue.
After the words were spoken, Lin Xiyue curtsied to Xie Ci, and raised a brisk tail note.
"Your Highness's satisfaction is the honor of the courtiers."
The ambiguous rumors disappeared without a trace, and the guests all looked at each other strangely, and they didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore.
Halfway through the feast, the change is reborn.
Lin Luo was young, Lin Xiyue had arranged him by his side, but he was afraid when he got to the front, so he could only let him sit in the back.
And now, the little boy with clear eyebrows is pale, leaning over and vomiting.
Lin Xiyue hurriedly rushed over to check, patted him on the back and ordered someone to pass on the house doctor.
"It's so decent, why did Luo'er vomit?"
Lin Miaoyin said and pretended to be surprised: "It must have been a bad stomach,"
Hearing the sound, the guests were in an uproar.
If there is a problem with the diet, then the wine and food at the feast today will not be ......
Lin Xiyue glared at her and replied coldly: "My sister is so determined, why don't you come to see the doctor for the house, so as to save him time, how about it?" ”
Lin Miaoyin smiled perfunctorily.
A moment later, the doctor arrived, and after diagnosis, he concluded that Lin Luo was vomiting because of contact with sensitive substances.
As for why, it is not yet known.
Hearing the voice, Xie Ci's cold voice sounded slowly.
"It's sensitive, and it's not suitable for Lin Xiaogongzi to stay in the house."
He raised his eyes and looked at Ji Xishen's gaze cold.
"It's better to let him change his environment, maybe his condition will improve."
