Huan Qi sneered, "Empress Mingmu is from the Yu family, these old slaves will not make their own decisions, there should be someone behind them." ”

The author has something to say:

Chapter 185 Chapter 184 Calligraphy and Painting

Wei Ji was quite impatient when he mentioned the Yu family, It should be related to the court's treatment of the Yu family these days. Those who followed Yu Xu have all been killed, and most of the remaining Yu clan members have served in the imperial court, and there are many in-laws related to the scholars, and the Yu family girls have been married to the royal family from generation to generation, and there are also in-laws with other scholars and high-ranking families, and the relationship is complicated.

Huan Qi ruined the good things of the Yu family, but the Yu family is the mother family of the eldest princess of Nankang - Wei Ji feels complicated and headache when she thinks about this relationship.

"In the future, if someone from the Great Sima Mansion comes, you can see it if you want to see it, and if you don't want to see it, you can drive people out to save it from being an eyesore." Huan Qi also thought of the many relationships involved behind this and said.

Wei Ji nodded.

Huan Qi went home this morning, he was busy like a top for so many days, it was rare to be idle, and when he saw Wei Yan Yan smiling, he was also in a good mood, forgetting all the anger when he entered the door just now, and talking and laughing about the things in Jiankang City. Wei Ji had just gone out for tea during the day, and she had heard a lot of things, and she was no stranger to chatting.

Huan Qi looked at her and suddenly asked, "Who told you these things?"

Wei Ji said: "Ziqi and Brother Tao." ”

Huan Qi frowned when he heard the words, "It's the Xu family kid from Yingchuan."

Wei Ji replied with an "um".

Huan Qi said again: "I heard that he often compares beauty with others"

Wei Ji smiled lightly, Xu Ling's problem couldn't be changed even in Jiankang, and he came to see any famous Meilangjun. She said, "It is not surprising that he cherishes his appearance more than ordinary people." ”

Huan Qi said: "Only judge people by their appearance, their knowledge is really shallow, and you don't want to be too deeply involved with him." ”

Wei Ji raised her eyes and glanced at him when she heard this, and said in her heart: When it comes to judging people by their appearance, you are not far behind, which of those women in the backyard is ordinary.

Huan Qi said a few more words, seeing that she was silent, and thinking of the children of Yuzhang Luo and Deng's families, his tone couldn't help but sink a little, "If you stay in the capital for a few more days, you should go back, you should also prepare early, this house is smaller, let people dispose of it first, if you like it, buy a bigger Zhuangzi, and I will make up for it if the money is not enough." ”

Wei Ji became quieter and quieter when she heard this, and the smile on her face faded a lot.

Huan Qi said a few Zhuangzi in Jingyi, and seeing that her expression was perfunctory and she had no intention of choosing, her face suddenly sank a little.

At this time, Hui Niang came in, asked the servant to light the lamp, and then brought food to eat. Wei Ji looked out, only to find that it was already evening. There was no word during the meal, and only the slight touch of dishes and chopsticks was heard in the quiet of the room. After eating, Jiang Yu sent the government affairs letter sent by Jiangzhou. Huan Qiren is not in Jiangzhou, and all important military affairs need to be handled by him as soon as possible.

Huan Qi glanced at Wei Ji, ignored it, and read the official document first. When the matter at hand was all dealt with, he looked up and saw that there was no one else in the room except Jiang Yu and a servant. He swept his eyes and said, "What about Yudu?"

Jiang Yu pursed his chin inward, "Xiao Langjun went in just now." ”

Huan Qi got up and walked towards the inner room. Because this house is small, the layout is slightly cramped, the sides are separated by screens, and the bookcase is placed on the shelves, and Wei Ji is sitting and practicing calligraphy. Huan Qi stood by the screen and watched for a while. Wei Jiao straightened her back, held the pen in her hand, and carefully put pen to paper into words, her expression was calm and concentrated, and no one in the room noticed it.

Huan Qi came to her and saw that what she wrote was "Yesterday's Sparse and Returning the Post", one stroke at a time, elegant and leisurely, the font was evenly stretched, and the essence of Xiaokai was exhausted. Huan Qi looked at it for a moment, and couldn't help but secretly praise, her words have improved a lot compared to last year when she was in the palace, and there are few Langjun of the same age who write so well, maybe only the children of the Langya Wang family can compare.

Huan Qi's gaze moved from the paper to Wei Ji's face, the light was faintly shrouded, her complexion was like jade, pink and fair, and her eyelashes were long, and she was illuminated by the light and shadow, leaving a layer of shadow. His gaze was frozen, slightly distracted.

Hui Niang came in with tea, and what she saw was Huan Qi's affectionate eyes staring at Wei Ji, she put down the tea bowl and reminded softly: "Xiao Langjun, rest." ”

Wei Ji put down the pen and turned her face sideways, only to see that Huan Qi was also there. She blinked twice, lowered her eyes and drank tea, and was about to invite Huan Qi out to sit. How do you know that Huan Qi has walked to the shelf, and casually pulled out the book and silk script from it. He read a few volumes, and then went to get the paper stacked on the bookcase, which were all written by Wei Ji every day. He flipped through a few pages, and the corners of his mouth were raised—on a few pages, or on a flower in the corner, or on a bird.

Huan Qi couldn't help but think that she was tired from practicing calligraphy, and Xu felt bored, so she drew a picture on the paper. On one of the pages, there is even a vivid drawing of a caterpillar.

Seeing that his expression was different, Wei Ji suddenly thought of something, quickly put down the tea bowl, walked over and snatched the paper back, and said, "It's all about comparing fonts, there's nothing to see." ”

Huan Qi smiled: "The insect painting is good. ”

Wei Ji was slightly ashamed, as if she was lazy and was discovered, "I draw it when I'm bored." ”

Huan Qi took her hand and suddenly asked, "You pretended to be a man that day to find your brother, why did you keep pretending to be later?"

Wei Ji looked at his eyes, with some unclear gentleness, which made her a little uncomfortable, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "There are only two brothers and me in the family, girls and Langjun are different after all, if I return to becoming a girl and have a marriage contract, I will marry far away, and I really can't rest assured that my mother is at home." ”

Huan Qi had also tried it before, but he was aggressive that day, and Wei Ji never answered him well.

Huan Qi thought for a while, and said: "Jiangxia has my father...... Your aunt and uncle are here, you know their personalities, even if you get married, you will definitely take care of your mother. ”

Hearing this, Wei Ji just shook her head slightly. She can't tell the things of her previous life, and the situation in her family is very different, the Wei family in her previous life was weak, her eldest brother Wei Jin had no fixed product, and she was framed and ruined, and Wei Sheng was young. As for Huan Qi, there has been no news in his previous life. There is also an extremely critical point, the Huang family did not give up the land in the backyard, the two Wei mansions are not connected, and the Wei Shen family was too busy to take care of themselves when the displaced people were in turmoil, and they had no time to rescue the Yang family.

Thinking of the most painful thing in her previous life, the tip of Wei Jiao's nose was sore, and she couldn't help but have her eyes moistened a little. She turned her face away slightly and said, "Second brother." ”

This voice was not soft, but it made Huan Qi's heart tremble slightly.

"If you want to keep someone to rely on at home, Lang Jun is more useful than a girl, so I'd rather be a Lang Jun," Wei Ji said, after thinking about it, he said more, "The current situation looks calm, but in fact, it is hidden danger, there are endless displaced people from all over the country, and the Northern Expedition, this time it is a failure, not necessarily there will be no second and third time...... Second brother, you are good at leading the troops, don't you want to make any more achievements?"

Huan Qi stared at her, his gaze deep and complex.

Wei Ji smiled slightly and said, "Marrying a noble girl is the only way to match the second brother." ”

The author has something to say:

Today is short, tomorrow it will be more

Chapter 186: Chapter 185: Resolute

Huan Qi stared at her, his gaze deep and complex.

He could hear that what Wei Ji said was all from the heart, this dynasty is the most particular about the matching of the family, not only the difference between the scholars, but also the distinction between the scholars.

Since Yin Hao's defeat, the Huan family has truly become the head of the four surnames. Huan Qi did not grow up in the Huan family, and his roots in the clan were shallow.

Wei Ji sensed his hidden ambitions, and was not just willing to be a gatekeeper. You must know that Huan Qi's outstanding talent is valued by Huan Wen, and he has been regarded as a thorn in the side of the eldest princess of Nankang. If you marry a girl from a high family, you can have the family behind her to help, and you will not be isolated.

Huan Qi's expression was obscure, and he suddenly lowered his head and pinched her chin and kissed her.

Wei Ji saw him groaning and thought he wanted to think clearly, but his mouth suddenly stopped, and the kiss was fierce and urgent, wrapping around her tongue. Wei Ji beat his chest. Huan Qi hugged her tighter. He was already athletic, with broad shoulders and broad back, and Wei Ji was blocked by his chest, and he smelled a strong masculine smell of juniper and soaphorn mixed between his nose. She was burned by the heat on his body, and her head was a little dizzy.

Huan Qi kissed Wei Ji fiercely, breathing heavily, his fingers rubbed Wei Jiyan's red lips, his eyes were dark, mixed with a hint of ruthlessness, "It's useless to say that, I just fancy you." ”

Wei Ji was a little frightened by his wolf-like gaze.

Huan Qi kissed her lips again, only to feel that this taste was really good, making people's blood boil, his body tensed, and he gasped heavily, and released his clamps.

Wei Ji was ashamed and angry, her cheeks were red, she instinctively sensed the danger, and quickly dodged.

Huan Qi smiled in a low voice and said: "Needless to say, I don't believe in evil, men are big husbands, do you think about relying on women all day long." Seeing that Wei Ji was hiding far away, he said again, "Thinking so much, it is to worry about the second brother and put his heart back in his stomach, and there will be no less." ”

As he spoke, he looked at her deeply, walked around the screen, and walked out.

Wei Ji's heart was beating hard, obviously he was persuading with good words, but he didn't know that Huan Qi didn't care about this stubble at all. With his ingenuity, how could he not know the pros and cons. If it weren't for the fact that his wife's family background was so important, Le's would not have pressed him to get married for a few years.

Wei Ji thought that Huan Qi's promise of marriage that day was just a momentary impulse, and a clear understanding of the interests would make him retreat. How did he know that he was so domineering and resolute, and he didn't mean to back down at all, Wei Ji couldn't help but feel at a loss.

Huan Qi arrived outside the door, and he was also a little annoyed, which of those women in the past was not full of affection, and if they didn't see each other for a few days, they would be like three autumns, and their liver and intestines would be broken. But Wei Jiao's words are all about letting him weigh his interests, how can he be gentle and compassionate.

The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and his face darkened. I stood in the courtyard for a moment and saw the wall at a glance. He scolded in a low voice, "What has become of this broken house?" ”

The guards heard it and persuaded: "Your Majesty's newly given mansion has been visited by people, and everything is good." ”

Huan Qi led the troops to rescue the driver, the reward of gold and silver wealth will not be less, Sima Pi also rewarded a mansion, as for Huan Qi's grade, there are many disputes between the DPRK and China, and the momentum of the Huan family is too great at present, such as Xie Wang and other gate valves are unwilling to boost their prestige, that is, other high-ranking nobles such as Xi, Xun, Yuan, Cai and other nobles have different ideas. For this reason, Huan Qi's official rank was not promoted, but there were many other rewards.

He frowned and said nothing, he had planned to clean up the newly given mansion and take Wei Ji to live in, but he could now see that Wei Ji was reluctant. He didn't understand that the girl was a husband and gentlemen, at most it would be a few years, not a long-term plan, why she gave up the marriage contract of the Xie family for the sake of these few years, and she didn't want to marry him.

Huan Qi thought about it for a long time and didn't come up with a reason. Of course, the marriage of the Xie family is not a pity, he pursed the corners of his mouth disdainfully, and said secretly, the marriage between the clan and the king of Changshan should be resolved earlier, and if it drags on, I don't know what will happen.

In the blink of an eye, a little and a half months have passed, and Wei Qi has also heard that Huan Qi has received a rich reward, including a mansion. That day, seeing Huan Qi practicing martial arts in the courtyard in the early morning, he swung down with a knife and cut down all the flowers and branches and leaves, and Wei Ji mentioned the matter of the house by the way. Huan Qi immediately put on a straight face and said, "The new house hasn't been cleaned up yet, and I haven't been aggrieved to live in such a small piece of land." ”

When he got out of the house, he stepped on the stirrup and got on the horse, and couldn't help but curse in a low voice, "This little thing with no conscience." ”

Jiang Yu and several guards accompanying him have been living together these days, and they have been looking forward to going to the new house for a long time, and when they heard Huan Qi's voice, they glanced at each other, yes, there are still days to wait.

Just after the national funeral, Jiankang City became lively, and Wei Ji received a lot of posts at home, all of which were invitations to banquets. The scholars who can gain a foothold in Jiankang are indispensable to high-ranking officials and nobles in the family, and when the family is large, there are many idle children, who go to the horse and Zhangtai all day long, drinking and having fun. Wei Ji is outstanding in appearance, and she has a good reputation in Jiankang, even when she walks outside, some people often call her Yulang.

If her identity had not been revealed, Wei Ji would have been happy to have today's reputation, but Huan Qi and Xie Xuan both knew the truth, and she trembled in her heart, and she really felt a little blind riding a blind horse, and she was in the middle of the night in the deep pool. But the days of worrying and worrying have been too long, and she gradually wants to open up, her attitude is free and easy, and she thinks in her heart, who can calculate the world well, without a trace of mistakes and omissions, and live one day at a time.

On this day, the palace attendants came to the house to spread the word, and His Majesty will hold a banquet in the old mansion and invite Wei Ji to go.

Sima Pi just succeeded to the throne, a month during the state funeral, the palace and the court are complicated, now the mourning period has passed, and it is the joy of the new emperor to succeed to the throne, he held a banquet in the former Langya Wang's mansion, and all the invitations were the famous families of the Jingyi clan.

When Wei Ji heard this, she couldn't help but feel a little worried in her heart, the letter handed over to her by Sima Pi is still in her hands and has never been delivered. Although the Yu family was rescued by Huan Qi later, Xie Xuan also brought troops to come, but she never completed the errand. It's just that Sima Pi has just succeeded to the throne, and a month has passed peacefully. With Sima Pi's temperament, Wei Ji really couldn't imagine whether he had doubts in his heart.

The chamberlain who came to deliver the message was the one he knew before, and Wei Ji asked the servant to stuff him with some money, and knocked on the side to inquire about the affairs of the palace. The chamberlain smiled and said: "Your Majesty is a nostalgic person, these days are still the same as in the past, now that the national funeral has passed, Xiao Langjun still goes to the palace and walks around more." ”

Wei Ji sent him out the door.

Three days later, on the day of the banquet, Huan Qi ordered people to prepare an ox cart, walked to the front of the hall, and saw Wei Ji walking out of the house, her hair tied up with a crown of lacquered sand, and she wore a red and single Confucian. The color is a little oppressive, but she is dressed very beautifully, Huan Qi's eyes swept over her slender white neck, and she couldn't help but feel a little itchy in her throat.

The two got into the ox cart one after another, and Wei Ji wondered if Sima Pi had a bad heart, so he didn't talk much.

Huan Qi poured a cup of tea and drank it, seeing that she was still in a daze, he suddenly said, "What do you think?"

Wei Ji asked, "What is the purpose of Your Majesty's banquet in the old mansion?"

Huan Qi replied casually: "Naturally, I want to see what else is useful." Unlike the first emperor, he liked the art of checks and balances. ”

As he spoke, he said again: "Now that the situation is complicated, you just have to eat and drink, and don't care about anything else." ”

Wei Ji nodded.

After half an hour, the ox cart gradually slowed down, and it was already in front of the Langya Palace. Tonight the guards of the ox-carts were gathered and crowded together on the road, and a servant trotted over and asked. Wei Ji looked out and saw that the servants had driven all the surrounding cars aside to make way for an open road. Only then did I know how majestic Huan Qi is now in Jiankang.

The people who can come to the banquet today are all famous and noble, but even those people have to let Huan Qi drive first.

Soon the ox cart stopped in front of the door, Wei Jiaohuan got out of the car, and the waiter welcomed the two in front of the door. Lights were lit everywhere in the house, as bright as day. The inner attendant wanted to introduce Huan Qi and Wei Ji into the inner hall, Wei Ji looked at the people in the outer hall, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I should go outside." ”

There is a difference between inside and outside, and the inner hall should be a high-ranking official of the gate valve, sitting at the same table as Sima Pi. Wei Ji, a little Langjun who has no official status, is more suitable to stay in the front hall.

Without waiting for the attendant to speak, Huan Qi said: "You come with me, you don't have to sit outside." ”

The chamberlain smiled and continued to walk inside.

The author has something to say:

It's late to update, and there is another chapter tonight to thank the little angel who voted for me during 2023-05-04 23:09:51~2023-05-06 15:16:51~

Chapter 187 Chapter 186 Figured

The inner hall is spacious, gorgeously decorated, with more than a dozen tables of banquets, and the inside and outside are all high-knotted lanterns, and the maids and maids shuttle back and forth.

There were a lot of guests, Wei Jiao looked around, there were more than 40 guests in the inner hall, all of them were high-ranking officials and nobles in power in Jiankang, and a group of girls dressed in brocade clothes and noble clothes. The chamberlain invited Huan Qiwei to the central seat.

The inner hall is arranged with two rows of seats on the side, and several of them are close to the middle, which shows dignity.
