After this night's banquet, she rested for a night, and on the second day, Xie Dao woke up early in the morning, and when the maid groomed her and chose her clothes, she did not express her preference for plain colors such as green onion and white and green gray, and the maid turned out a set of goose-yellow silk skirts from the bottom of the box, which was not worn because of the bright color.

Xie Dao shook his head and said, "That's it." ”

Changing into this dress, several maidservants surrounded her and praised: "The girl is too plain on weekdays, and when she dresses like this, she is really like a fairy, so we can't take our eyes off." ”

Xie Daocang showed a look of shame, laughed with the maidservant, and after breakfast, he came to Sima Yinxuan. The two have known each other since childhood, and there are correspondence every year, this time Xie Xuanyi personally ran to Huiji and Taishan, Xie Daocang came out together, and received an order from the elders on the way, and Sima Yinxuan was picked up with Yuzhang.

She came to the courtyard where Sima Yinxuan lived, and when she entered the door, she saw several maidservants surrounding her and telling her about yesterday's events.

Xie Daocang smiled: "It's so lively early in the morning, I heard someone mention General Huan's name." ”

Sima Yinxuan sat lazily on the couch, with a pillow on her back, such a lazy posture was slightly indecent, but Sima Yinxuan looked relaxed, with a face slightly powdered, and the begonia was as delicate as a spring sleep.

Xie Daocang is also a beauty, with a cold and noble temperament, but when he is with Sima Yinxuan, he is still a little inferior. She didn't care about it on weekdays, but she was slightly stunned when she looked at that delicate face at this time.

Sima Yinxuan raised his head and said, "What are you doing standing, come in and sit." ”

Xie Daocang sat on the couch, his movements were elegant, and his every move was everyone's demeanor. She took a sip of the hot tea served by the maidservant, and said with a smile: "Yesterday's banquet was all busy for you, how do you look at it?"

Sima Yinxuan sighed lightly.

Xie Daocan's heart skipped twice, yesterday she felt that Sima Yinxuan was not very attentive to Huan Qi, and now she confirmed it.

The maidservant girl on the side said anxiously: "Lady Can't persuade my family's master, General Huan, I can't find a few people in the whole world, yes or no."

Xie Dao Cang nodded with a smile and said, "Lord Weng still doesn't look down on General Huan."

Sima Yinxuan retired from the maid, leaving only one who was waiting for him, and then he spoke: "There are many people, and it will not be good if some gossip goes out and causes trouble." ”

Xie Dao said: "It's all because I said it wrong just now." ”

Sima Yinxuan shook his head lightly, "This is your home, it doesn't hurt to say anything, but I have to be careful, I can't let people leave a handle." ”

Xie Daocang heard a little bit of extraneous meaning when he heard this, "What you said seems to be a lot of fear of the Huan family." ”

Sima Yinxuan took a sip of tea slowly and said, "I won't hide it from you, now that the whole dynasty is up and down, who is not afraid of the Huan family." His Majesty was seriously ill, and the Northern Expedition did not make an inch, and I heard that Jingzhou and Yongzhou and other places only knew the Duke of Linhe County, and they had long since known the name of Sima. My father is bent on enveloping the Huan family, but I see that Huan Qi's temperament is similar to that of the Duke of Linhe County, and he will not be easily manipulated by others. ”

Xie Daocang smiled and said, "Lord Weng, you are so beautiful, you will definitely be able to envelop people in the future for a long time." ”

Sima Yinxuan glanced at her and said, "You tell me on weekdays that appearance and talent should be the most important thing, and it will grow over time, but the appearance is declining day by day, how can I say it differently today." ”

Xie Dao was stunned for a moment, and then pretended to be angry and said, "It's not all for the sake of persuading you. You blame me. ”

Sima Yinxuan smiled and begged her for mercy, the two laughed a few words, and thanked Daocang: "Your father and the prince of Linhe County discussed the marriage, you are dissatisfied with Huan Qi, and you can only bear it." ”

Sima Yinxuan's eyebrows were also a little gloomy when he heard this, and he sighed and said: "Before the step of discussing relatives, maybe things will take a turn for the better." ”

Xie Dao said: "His Royal Highness King Langya is now in Yuzhang, if you really have any other ideas, it is better to ask him." ”

"I'm going to go to the palace later, I should have gone as soon as I came to Yuzhang, but it's already late now, I hope my cousin won't blame." Sima Yinxuan said, and his voice changed, "Okay, don't talk about me, you should go back to prepare for marriage in the spring of next year."

Xie Daocang smiled slightly and nodded.

Sima Yinxuan took her hand, "I'll add makeup to you then." ”

Xie Dao Cang was not very happy.

Sima Yinxuan felt strange and said: "I heard that your future husband is Liu Langjun of Peiguo Xiang County, after the famous family, Qingming and Yuanda, and the character of the family is rare, so you don't want it."

Xie Dao Cang was silent for a moment, and said in a muffled voice: "What Qingming is far away, it is the glory of the ancestors." I've seen articles written by him, with mediocre intellect and no other talents. ”

Sima Yinxuan said: "There is no perfect person in the world, your uncles and brothers are all talents, so they can raise your horizons." It's that he doesn't have enough talent, as long as you treat you sincerely and considerately in the future, it's a hundred times better than others. ”

Xie Daocang smiled reluctantly and diverted the topic. After sitting here for a while in Sima Yinxuan, she was upset, walked to a plum tree that had not yet bloomed, looked up at the buds on the branches, and suddenly felt a little self-pity. How can Huan Qi be handsome and majestic, and he has a frustrating bearing.

If she hadn't come to Yuzhang to take a walk, she wouldn't have known that there was such a man in the world. Sima Yinxuan has this blessing but doesn't know how to cherish it, but admires the weak man, Xie Daoxuan was puzzled, his lips moved slightly, and he wanted to say something, but in the end it turned into a long sigh.

The maidservant asked, "What is the sorrow of the girl?"

Xie Dao said: "The world grinds people. ”

The maidservant girl has followed her since she was a child, guessed her thoughts, and said: "What Lord Weng said is right, when the girl marries, the Liu family will not hold you, and life will definitely be comfortable." ”

Xie Dao said: "There are a few Shutan sisters, the husband's family is either the Wang family or the Lu family, I have set a declining family, and it sounds good to say that it is the royal family of the previous dynasty, and now the descendants have not supported the lintel, leaving a false name." If he is really talented, I won't say anything, but a fancy guy who is lazy all day long and doesn't know how to make progress, I can't say that I will have to rely on my family to pave the way for him in the future, so how can Lang Jun be worthy of me. ”

She is an arrogant person, and she often competes with her brothers and sisters in the boudoir for poetry and articles, and she feels that she is talented, and she has such a family background, and her marriage should be harmonious and beautiful. But in the first two years, when they were married, the sisters were determined to be stronger than her. Let her hold her breath in her heart, deliberately postpone the marriage, now she is eighteen years old, can no longer delay, in a few months, and the marriage will be completed in the spring of next year.

Xie Dao Cangyuan also accepted his fate, and said to the family that Yu Zhang would get married obediently as soon as he went back, but now the feeling of unwillingness in his heart is getting stronger and stronger.

Sima Yinxuan waited for the others to leave, and the maid packed up the cup and said softly: "I just saw that the girl of the Xie family was more concerned about the marriage of the lord than herself. ”

Sima Yinxuan cupped his cheeks and said, "How can you see it?"

The maidservant said: "I saw a few points last night, the owner of the Weng has not yet spoken, she asked carefully, and those who don't know think that it is the girl of the Xie family who came to see it, and I can't see that little bit of thought when I look at others." ”

"Now I still live in the Xie family, be careful to speak."

The maidservant said: "It's just me and the lord here, and there are people guarding outside, so it's okay." Lord Weng is really good-natured, and he is not afraid that the girl of the Xie family will have other thoughts. ”

Sima Yinxuan said: "It's not a big deal to have only thoughts, if I can really mess up this matter, I have to thank her." ”

The maidservant was puzzled, "Why did the lord say something depressing?"

Sima Yinxuan said with a smile: "What I just said is all my heartfelt words, Huan Wen married the imperial aunt back then, and now he has the army and his own respect, but there is a little taboo in the clan, others look at Jin Zun and jade, but there is no warmth at all." Huan Qi is shrewd and ambitious at first glance, I have seen a lot of this kind of person, and it is the most difficult to deal with. According to my mind, I should find a gentle and outstanding-looking Pianpian Langjun, whose family background is poor, I dare not disobey, and I follow my heart everywhere, and I can live a good life. ”

The maid smacked her tongue and thought for a while: "Didn't the princess look at the little Langjun yesterday?"

Sima Yinxuan laughed a few times and said: "It's a pity that he is a little younger, otherwise such a beautiful little Langjun, if he can attract him to be a minister under the skirt, it will also be a beautiful thing." ”

The maidservant was startled, and hurriedly looked left and right, "Lord Weng should pay attention, don't really let people listen." ”

Chapter 140: Chapter 139: Estrangement

On the second day, Wei Ji fell asleep and got up late, so Hui Niang came to wake her up, freshen up and clean up, and then went to the study in the outer courtyard of the palace. Now everyone in the palace knows that King Langya values Wei Ji, and a few documents don't embarrass her, and when the inner servants came to ask Wei Ji just now, they still helped cover it up.

Wei Ji sat down for a while, and when she heard that the chamberlain had come to look for her, she immediately got up and went to the side hall again.

When I came to the side hall, I saw a lot of people guarding the door, and a few maids looked familiar, as if they were the people around the lord of Yinxuan, and the waiter asked the waiter to do so. Sima Yinxuan came to meet Sima Pi, and the two cousins were talking privately in the hall at this time.

Wei Ji saw a group of people waiting in front of the door, turned around and went to the tea room. She had a good face and a sweet mouth, and was very popular with the little palace maid, so she comfortably drank tea and rested for a while, and listened to the waiter come to ask someone to add tea, and then returned to the side hall.

Sima Yinxuan walked out of the hall, her skirt swinging, ringing softly, with a graceful and luxurious posture.

The waiter hung her head, Sima Yinxuan didn't know what she had just said to Sima Pi, her face was stunned, as if she was thinking about something, the maid supported her, and reminded her to go to see the princess, She nodded, her eyes turned, and suddenly saw Wei Ji standing in the courtyard.

"Wei Xiaolangjun."

Wei Ji heard her shout, stepped forward slowly, and said, "Lord Weng is well." ”

Sima Yinxuan smiled lightly and said, "I don't want to see you again so soon, just right, I'm going to see Sister-in-law Wang, you accompany me for a walk." ”

The chamberlain was already waiting in front to lead the way, and Wei Ji came to Sima Yinxuan's side a few steps and accompanied her to the residence of Princess Wang Mu. Walking through the garden, Sima Yinxuan was a smart person, glanced back, and only looked at the palace where Sima Pi and Wang Muzhi lived, and knew that the two were not as kind of affection as outsiders.

Thinking of her, she secretly laughed again, as they were born, the marriage was all considered by the family, and whether the husband and wife could be harmonious was all up to luck, so when she thought of her own marriage, she added a trace of melancholy to her heart. At this time, she turned her face sideways and saw Wei Ji, her heart was narrow, she slowed down, and when she saw the tree, she asked Wei Ji what kind of tree it was, and when she saw the withered flowers, she also asked a few words. It was already winter, and most of the green plants in the garden had withered, so there was really nothing to ask, so she asked about the things in Yuzhang City again.

All the way to the palace of the princess, Wei Ji was almost about to be asked to sweat, thinking that this lord is beautiful, but there are too many questions.

Sima Yinxuan looked at him with a smile, and raised his hand slightly when he was about to enter the hall.

The waiter and the maid didn't move, Wei Ji hesitated slightly, saw Sima Yinxuan staring at him, and stretched out his hand to help.

Sima Yinxuan's eyes flowed, and his fingers lightly hooked Wei Jiao's palm under the cover of his sleeve, and if there was no force, it was like a small fish.

Wei Ji put down her hand, this time she was really scared and sweating, she hung her face and didn't dare to look up at Sima Yinxuan's expression at the moment. When she saw someone entering, she quickly turned around and left, as if someone was behind her.

Wei Ji returned to the side hall, quite a little frightened, the touch of the palm just now was not illusory, like teasing. Thinking that when they first saw her yesterday, Sima Yinxuan showed great appreciation for her performance, Wei Ji thought that she was looking at Huan Qi's face, but now she feels that it may not be.

She stood in front of the hall for a moment, until Fu Bao called her in.

Sima Pi stood in front of the window, heard her come in, retracted his gaze, turned his face and said, "Lord Weng was very kind to you when he first came to Yuzhang. ”

As soon as Wei Ji heard this, thinking about it just now, her heart suddenly shook.

Sima Pi's eyes were extremely sharp, and he could see something at a glance at her, and he raised the corners of his mouth and said: "Yinxuan looks like the moon, and I am not happy to look at you."

Wei Ji smiled bitterly: "Your Highness, I am still young. ”

Sima Pi laughed lightly, seeing that her expression was slightly embarrassed, and there was no hint of joy. There was a faint trace in his heart, because the displeasure that arose when he saw Sima Yinxuan treating her kindly through the window quickly dissipated without a trace.

"It's good to know the proportions, I heard that you went to the Xie Mansion banquet yesterday"

Wei Ji nodded, and seeing that he was silent, he roughly said what he saw yesterday. Even if she didn't say it, someone would take the initiative to report it to Sima Pi, otherwise how could he say that she went last night.

Sima Pi nodded slightly and asked, "Do you know why Xuan was introduced to Yuzhang?"

Wei Ji said bluntly: "I heard that the Huan family and King Changshan are discussing marriage. ”

Sima Pi didn't say anything after asking this, and his chin skimmed over a scroll of silk books placed on several pieces of paper, allowing Wei Ji to read it.

……

Since the lord of Sima Weng came to Yuzhang, the city of Yuzhang in winter was lively. The banquet of the scholar clan is ordinary, and the lord of Xuan Weng is beautiful, and Xie Dao is talented, which are the targets of the banquet of the high gate. There are even rumors outside that the owner of Weng has reached the age of discussing relatives, and he came to Yuzhang to see his husband with intent to see him, which made the young children who had not decided to marry excited, and there were also a few smart ones, seeing that Luo Xiong Deng and several Langjun did not show anything, and they had guessed that there was something strange in this matter, but more of them were competing to perform in front of the master Weng.

Those who have a heart found that several banquets had summoned Wei Ji to speak, and for a while, the style of applying powder to scholars began to prevail again.

Huan Qi couldn't drink because of his injuries, and he pushed the banquet several times, and went to the barracks to go around and returned home that day, he threw away the horsewhip and asked: "Where is Xiao Langjun?"

The steward said: "Xiao Langjun went out to eat." ”

Huan Qi knew where the excitement between the scholars came from during this time, and there was no expression on his face, so he walked to the main room, stopped on the way, and instructed the steward: "There have been too many entertainment recently, and Ming'er asked Xiao Langjun to rest at home." ”

The steward knew that he had always been attentive to Wei Ji, and immediately agreed.

Wei Ji ran around to eat and drink in various houses for several days, but she didn't like it in her heart, and after listening to the words of the steward, she pushed all the wine banquets in the next few days, and recently Sima Yinxuan has shown her kindness very obviously, Wei Ji is still a little stunned in her heart, so it's better to stay away.

In fact, in terms of her heart, Wei Ji doesn't hate Sima Yinxuan at all, and even likes her cool and true temperament. Only with her family background and beauty can she live more freely than others.

But even so, in the matter of marriage, it is still necessary to obey the arrangement, thinking of this, Wei Ji sighed secretly.

This night, Huan Qi called Wei Ji to have dinner together. The two hadn't sat together for a good meal in days. Wei Ji came to the main room, Huan Qi put down her business, asked her to sit down, and asked about the situation in the past few days. After talking for a while, the maidservant girl came in and set supper.

Huan Qi looked at Wei Ji, and always felt that something was wrong there, he pondered, his brows furrowed, and suddenly understood where that strange feeling came from.

Wei Ji behaved calmly, and when the two of them spoke, it was as if they had gone back to the time when they were brothers.

Huan Qi's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he felt that her attitude was actually distant.
