Chapter 40: Ah Yan, Is That You?
"The lady of the pavilion really knows how to be sympathetic to her husband. Lan Xiang looked at the bone tide beside Nangong Jue and said.
"Prizes have been awarded. Gu Xi glanced up at the princess Lan Xiang and said, only to see Lan Xiang painted with exquisite makeup, wearing luxurious dance clothes, and the hand holding the wine glass was slightly cocked, elegant and noble.
When Lan Xiang danced just now, Gu Xi didn't look very carefully, but now it looks like Lan Xiang does look good, but it's a pity, the anger in her eyes is too heavy, and sooner or later she will be put in danger.
Lan Xiang saw Gu Xi looking at herself blankly, with a hint of smugness in her eyes, and instantly straightened her waist.
"Heh......" Gu Xi couldn't help but sneer as he watched Lan Xiang's movements.
"What are you laughing at?" Lan Xiang asked Gu Xi with some displeasure, because she saw the disdain in Gu Xi's eyes when she snorted coldly just now.
"The princess is so angry, is this questioning my wife?" Before Gu Xi could speak, Nangong Jue stared at Lan Xiang and said, his eyes seemed to be about to stare at Lan Xiang A hole in his body, which scared Lan Xiang a little unstable.
"No...... No ......," Lan Xiang said incoherently.
"Okay, okay, the royal sister is a little excited, and I ask the pavilion master not to blame. Mu Shangze Lanxiang, who was stunned on the side, came out to play a round.
Hearing Mu Shangze's voice, Gu Xi couldn't help but look up, this Jin Su country lord is really strange, obviously interested in his own queen, but he was willing to give her away, when Gu Qingyan was taken away, the grief in Mu Shangze's eyes was so real, although Mu Shangze tried his best to cover it up, and even set up someone else, he still couldn't hide it from Gu Xi's eyes.
Gu Xi thought in his heart that this man was not simple.
"Why is this woman staring at other men? Nangong Jue had a fire in his heart, and his right hand clenched his fist and hit the table.
"The Pavilion Master is angry. Mu Shangze thought that Nangong Jue was unhappy because of Lan Xiang's matter, so he immediately stood up and said to Nangong Jue.
"Don't be nervous, sit down. Nangong Jue reacted at this time, he had inadvertently expressed his emotions just now, so he asked Mu Shangze to sit down with some weakness.
"Hey...... What's wrong with you?" Gu Xi asked Nangong Jue with some amusement, thinking that this man's endurance could be practiced again.
"What's wrong, what's wrong, it's not because of you, when I meet you, the pavilion master has no sense of proportion. Nangong Jue looked at Gu Xi, who was laughing at herself, pulled her into her arms and said in her ear.
"In front of the public, you don't have a face, I still want a face, Nangong Jue, you let go of the old lady. Gu Xi said a little speechlessly, this man is not in shape in front of everyone.
"Hahaha, the pavilion master and his wife are really affectionate, envy me and wait. Sure enough, someone had already begun to pat himself on the back, and it was the envoy of the Thorn Lama who spoke.
"This Nangong Jue has a bit of ability, and he actually makes people from all countries respect him so much. Gu Xi thought in his heart and struggled to sit up from Nangong Jue's arms.
With his arms empty, Nangong Jue was a little disappointed, but his mood was not too bad.
Lan Xiang on the side didn't feel good in his heart, this man was so enthusiastic about Gu Xi, but he was as cold as ice to himself, could it be that his charm was not enough.
The more Lan Xiang thought about it, the more uncomfortable she became, and suddenly stood up from her seat, picked up her wine glass, walked to Nangong Jue and Gu Xi and said, "The Pavilion Master and the Pavilion Master's Wife are singing together, which makes people envious, Xiang'er is here to give the Pavilion Lord and his wife a glass." ”
After Lan Xiang finished speaking, she raised her wine glass and drank it all.
Gu Xi and Nangong Jue glanced at each other, raised their eyebrows and didn't know what to say.
Lan Xiang saw that Nangong Jue and Gu Xi were indifferent, so she continued: "Lan Xiang has admired people with strong martial arts since she was a child, if the pavilion master does not dislike it, Lan Xiang is willing to enter the Yuejue Pavilion as a disciple and learn some skills." ”
As soon as Lan Xiang said this, Nangong Jue and Mu Shangze's faces changed.
Mu Shangze frowned, he didn't know what medicine his sister bought in the gourd, so he opened his mouth and scolded: "You girl, what are you messing about, don't hurry back to your position." ”
"It's okay, since the princess looks up to me like this, it's not impossible, but there are conditions for entering my Yuejue Pavilion, either you have money or strength. Nangong Jue picked up the wine glass in front of him and shook it and said.
"This ......" Lan Xiang looked at Mu Shangze with some embarrassment, Mu Shangze sighed and looked at Lan Xiang with some disgust, and then said to Nangong Jue with a smile: "I don't know how the pavilion master is rich." ”
"One hundred thousand taels of gold. Nangong Jue calmly replied to Mu Shangze.
Gu Xi's eyelids jumped, he propped his hand on the table to cover his face, and said in his heart: "This person is too shameless, this is simply a sky-high asking price, although he is also a money fan, it is simply not worth mentioning compared to Nangong Jue." ”
"100,000 taels of gold, that's too much. The people at the feast were talking.
"Pavilion master?" Mu Shangze looked at Nangong Jue with a shocked face, thinking that Nangong Jue was deliberately joking.
"It's expensive? Nangong Jue said and stood up and said to Lan Xiang in front of him, "I will compete with the princess, if the princess can take me three moves, the door of my Yuejue Pavilion will be open like a princess at any time." ”
"No...... No need......" Lan Xiang said with a sigh and took a few steps back.
What is the strength of the Pavilion Master of Jue Pavilion this month, she doesn't know, looking at the capable people in this country, who can take him three moves, this is obviously making her retreat.
Lan Xiang smiled awkwardly and returned to her seat.
Nangong Jue saw that Lan Xiang was not entangled, so he sat down slowly.
"You're so dark. Gu Xi glanced at Nangong Jue's unhesitant "praise".
"Madame has won the prize. Nangong Jue looked at Gu Xi and said, his eyes were full of doting.
Jinsu National City Gate
Gu Qingyan was taken by Jun Moyan to the city gate. Along the way, Jun Moyan's hands were tightly gripping Gu Qingyan's shoulders, without any tenderness.
"Ah Yan, you hurt me. Gu Qingyan couldn't help but say to Jun Moyan.
Hearing Gu Qingyan's words, Jun Moyan's eyes showed a trace of unknown emotion, and he turned his head and pinched Gu Qingyan's chin and said, "Does it hurt?" said with a slight force in his hands.
Gu Qingyan exclaimed in pain.
"My lord, the carriage is ready. Suddenly, a person came from afar and walked up to Jun Moyan and knelt down and said, this person is Jun Moyan's personal guard Rong Er.
Seeing that his master didn't speak, Rong Er raised his head and looked at Jun Moyan and Gu Qingyan. I saw that Gu Qingyan's chin was pinched tightly by Jun Moyan, and it looked very painful.
Eiji couldn't bear to lower his head and continued, unlike before, Eiji's voice was slightly louder this time: "Lord, the carriage is ready." ”
Jun Moyan's thoughts were pulled back by Rong Er's voice, and he let go of Gu Qingyan's chin and pushed her face aside.
"Take her back. Jun Moyan turned his back to Gu Qingyan and said to Rong Er.
"Yes. Eiji answered.
Jun Moyan disappeared into the night without looking back.
"No, mother, let's go. Rong Er stood up from the ground and looked at Gu Qingyan with a blank face and said.
"Who is he? Is he Ah Yan? No, no, he wouldn't do that to me. Gu Qingyan shook his head and said, retreating back uncontrollably as he spoke.
"Niangniang, Niangniang, if there is anything to say, let's go back and talk about it. Looking at Gu Qingyan's frustrated appearance, Rong Er didn't know what was going on.
"Huh...... Let's go. Gu Qingyan sorted out his emotions, glanced at Rong Er and said.
"Niangniang come with me. After Rong Er finished speaking, he took Gu Qingyan and walked in the direction of the carriage.
Mo Junyan had been observing in the dark, and he didn't leave until he saw Gu Qingyan get into the carriage.
"Niangniang, you take a rest first, I'll hurry up the carriage, and I should be able to get to Siyin Country soon." Rong Er drove the carriage and said to Gu Qingyan.
"Don't rush, take your time. Gu Qingyan reached out and touched his stomach and said. She already has a child in her belly, and the dance in front of the palace just now has damaged a large part of her vitality, if it continues to be so bumpy, she doesn't know if the child in her belly is so strong.
"It's okay, the mother is delicate, let's slow down. Eiji said with a stupid smile.
Gu Qingyan only felt that Rong Er was funny, and an ugly smile appeared on his mouth.
Suddenly, Gu Qingyan thought of something, opened the door of the carriage with an ugly look, and said to Rong Er, who was driving the car: "Stop, stop, stop." ”
"......" Rong Er quickly stopped the carriage and asked Gu Qingyan in the carriage, "Niangniang, what's wrong?"
"We can go back for a while, I want to take Jinxiu with me. Gu Qingyan looked at Rong Er anxiously and said.
"This ...... Mother, we have already gone out of the city gate, and now I am afraid that it will be too late to go back. Eiji said with some embarrassment.
"What should I do then?" Gu Qingyan asked a little nervously, Jinxiu had followed her since she was a child, and she couldn't leave her alone in Jin Suguo.
"Niangniang go back and sit down first, let's go back to Siyin Country first, and then you can ask the lord of the country to take Jinxiu over?" Rong Er said comforting Gu Qingyan.
"That's all there is to it. Gu Qingyan said with some uneasiness in his heart.
"Let's go in first, it's windy outside. Rong Er said and asked Gu Qingyan to return to the carriage and closed the door of the carriage again.
Si Yinguo
"...... Niangniang ...... "Sakura trotted all the way to Wanxin's palace, and kept shouting Niangniang in her mouth.
Wan Xin was sitting in the courtyard basking in the sun at this time, and on the table was the parrot that Mo Junyan found for her, just to relieve her boredom. This parrot is different from other parrots, in addition to the white fur on its body, its eyes are uncommon purple, and Jun Moyan just thought that this parrot's eyes were bought with a lot of money.
Looking at Sakura with a panicked face, Wan Xin teased the parrot and asked, "What's the matter, panicked." ”
