Chapter 12

The atmosphere in the flower hall was completely stiff.

We don't dare to talk deeply about the affairs in the court. We can see that Jiang Xuening's posture is appalling. Even the peacemakers dare not come out to do it.

How could a girl who had been raised in the Grange for the past 14 years and had no knowledge at all, and had only been in Beijing for four years, be so frightening?

Fortunately, just at this time, the outside servant suddenly looked happy and came to report in a hurry: "Miss, your royal highness Linzi and Yan Shizi are already outside."

Previously, you Yue and Jiang Xuening's dispute was immediately forgotten.

Even you Yue didn't care about it.

In the flower hall, these young women began to talk with each other. They were all looking forward to or shy. Some of them were brave enough to go to the window by the door.

Only Jiang Xuening was slightly stunned: How did Yan Lin come?

But then I had a headache.

No wonder she came to Qingyuan Bofu today and saw so many people coming to the banquet. It turned out that it was not Bofu who gained power again, but Yan Lin and Shen Yao who were coming!

That's good -

on that day, she politely refused Yan's temporary perfunctory saying that she would stay at home for two days. As a result, she came to other people's home for a banquet on September 9 Double Ninth Festival. She was afraid that the vinegar jar would turn over soon.

Although the male guests and female guests are separated, they can be in the flower hall on one side and in the waterside pavilion on the other. In fact, the distance is not far away, and when both sides come in, they have to pass through a corridor in the garden.

In the flower hall, in the waterside pavilion, you can see it from a distance.

When the servant came to report the time, Yan Lin and Shen Yu had already come in from outside, and soon they walked on the corridor.

It's needless to say that Shen Xun's noble and gentle temperament.

Today's Yan Lin is rarely dressed as a noble young master without a sword.

He was dressed in a waist closed brocade sky water blue robe, with a piece of white jade simply hanging on the leather belt. The young man was tall and straight, with a face like a crown of jade, and his eyes like the morning star. He walked up from the other end of the corridor like a scorching sun, dazzling.

The girls in the flower hall have already passed the age of ignorance. When they see such excellent young men for a moment, they have some spring feelings in their hearts.

You Yue was even more dazed, her cheeks flushed.

She is also 18 years old this year. She thinks that she looks better than her sister and is about the same age as Yan Lin. yesterday, when she heard that Yan Shizi and Linzi Wang were coming, she secretly speculated why Yan Lin came. She almost didn't get a good night's sleep. Now when she saw Yan Lin, her heart was pounding.

"Oh dear!"

A young lady leaning against the door suddenly let out a cry and covered her lips with her hand in surprise.

"How did Yan Shizi come here?"

All of them were immediately surprised. Those who could have pretended to be calm in the audience could not help but stand up and look out.

Sure enough, Yan Lin stood on the porch, said a few words to Shen fan, and took the green servant beside him to the direction of the flower hall.

People in the hall immediately began to guess.

"What does shiyanzi want?"

"To whom?"

"Ah, have you come to see miss you?"

You Yue and Jiang Xuening's table is just beside the window, which is the best position in the whole flower hall with the best view. They can see the outside clearly.

Correspondingly, one or two of them can be seen from the outside.

When you Yue heard other people joking, she was very happy, but she was ashamed and angry. She made an effort to break her lips and said, "don't talk nonsense. Our house didn't send a post to invite Yan Shizi. Yesterday, she received a reply from him saying that she would come today. The whole house was still puzzled. Who knows why my son came? "

If she didn't say that, it was all right. When she said that, it was more and more puzzling: "it's from Baba. It's still Qingyuan uncle's house. It's a big face."

Jiang Xuening, a shy man, sat on the side of the window and did not look at him.

No one else's attention is on her.

Only you Shuang looked at her thoughtfully.

In a short time, Yan Lin had approached and just came to the window.

Today is the banquet of Qingyuan's mansion. If Yan Shizi is only on the side of the male guests, it's all right. If he goes to the side of the female guests now, it's hard to avoid making people think that he's on the side of both the male guests and the female guests, and he wants to give face to the banquet today. According to common reasoning, he's naturally looking for miss you fu.

For a moment, the eyes all around fall on you Yue.

I don't know whether it is more doubt, more envy or more jealousy.

You Yueshen is in the eyes of others. She has an unprecedented tension. She almost knocks over the tea cup by mistake, but soon this tension becomes a kind of pride and vanity.

After all, it's the host's family. It's hospitality.

She took a breath, pressed the heart that was about to jump out of her throat, exhausted her life-long composure, and took out a decent and elegant posture. She stood up, and then raised a smile: "Yan Shizi --"

Yan Linchang was in gaomen, and I didn't know how many women were flattering him when I was a child. I didn't want to pay attention to her when I saw so many affectations When I didn't hear it, I turned my eyes on the girl in the corner of the window.Jiang Xuening is still sitting there.

A pair of clear eyes from the inside, natural and quiet, but the expression seems to hide a bit of distress, it seems that he is a trouble, people see the heart fire.

Yan linben was dissatisfied with her perfunctoriness, and ran to this laoshizi's Qingyuan uncle's house. At the moment, she pursed her lips slightly, pulled down her face, and said, "I didn't expect to come today, did I?"

Around all eyes "brush" to turn.

You Yue's face is white, and her decent smile is almost distorted. She suddenly turns her head to look at Jiang Xuening with an unbelievable look!

Jiang Xuening sighed from the bottom of her heart and did not answer.

Yan Lin then said, "come out."

There was another sound of cool air.

Knowing his temperament, Jiang Xuening guessed that he was upset at the bottom of his heart, but he didn't dare to offend him in front of the crowd. For fear that his temper would make everyone feel embarrassed, he got up and went out of the flower hall.

Her front foot just stepped out, and the back foot exploded in the flower hall.

First of all, the ladies who still have a vision for Yan Shizi can't believe their eyes. They look at you Yue strangely.

You Yue, as the host, stands up and just says half a word to greet the guests. Who would have expected that the distinguished guest would not pay any attention to her. Instead, she talks to the girl Jiang Er, who they thought could not be on the stage. She seems to know each other better. It's really shocking!

Why is this different from face to face?

Originally, they thought that Yan Shizi and Linzi King's palace came down to the banquet, which should be something unknown in Qingyuan's mansion. However, Yan Shizi's words and deeds just now seemed to be completely different from what they imagined.

You Yue stood in the same place, looking at the two distant figures outside, her face suddenly became colorful, and her expression was very "wonderful".

*

Yan Lin is ahead.

Jiang Xuening is half a step behind.

Qingfeng and tang'er are behind, only following far away.

When she got to the secluded corner of the garden, Yan Lin stopped and looked at her with a smile: "I said I would have a rest at home for two days. Today, she appeared at the chrysanthemum feast again. Do you mean to annoy me?"

Jiang Xuening knew that the vinegar jar was going to pour when he heard that he was coming.

Now it is.

She raised her eyes and looked at him. Her eyes looked like a clear spring. She only said with a smile, "I only saw you Fu's invitation when I went back to my house. I decided on it temporarily. Besides, aren't you here now? "

This words inside meaning, unexpectedly seem to say that she knows Yan Lin also can come.

Yan Lin couldn't get angry immediately. She didn't feel a trace of sweetness yet.

He couldn't hold the corner of his lips that he had pursed before. He came up with a real smile and said, "I haven't learned much serious skills. I've practiced my kung fu very well!"

Jiang Xuening said in her heart: don't you just eat me?

But he said: "but Shizi is too brave. There are other ladies in the hall just now. You dare to come here. I'm afraid I don't know what kind of gossip I'm going to spread when I look back. "

"Then tell them to pass it on."

Yan Lin's eyebrows were a bit overbearing, but he didn't pay attention to them.

"In the past, I still had two years to add the crown. It's not good for others to know. I'm afraid that something might happen in the middle and make you trapped by rumors. But now there are only two months left. I want the whole world to know."

Jiang Xuening was speechless for a moment.

At this time, what she remembered was the bloody crown gift of Yan Lin of the last life. She killed her family and exiled them for thousands of miles. Once the Yan family was destroyed, it was just like the sun falling on the valley. It was too dark to shine.

Looking at the young people's longing for real adulthood, we can't help feeling cruel.

Yan Lin looked at her with a wrong look. He thought that she was angry. For a moment, she gave birth to several problems. After thinking for a moment, he said, "but if you are not happy, I will never do such things again."

Jiang Xuening's heart is more and more desolate.

Yan Lin stepped up and took her hand: "Your Highness is still waiting for me. Since you are out today, you are not in a hurry to go back. In the afternoon, the banquet is over. You wait for me in the Xiaolou. I'll come out later and take you to the Lantern Festival. "

The young man's hand is the hand holding the sword. Some fine cocoons are worn out from his finger belly. When he holds her hand, it conveys a heat penetrating into the skin texture.

Jiang Xuening looked at him with a smile and couldn't say no.

After all, he refused first and then came to Qingyuan uncle's house. If he wanted to refuse him again, I was afraid that I would turn my face to her on the spot, so I had to answer and say, "OK."

Yan Lin doesn't stay here much, and mistakenly thinks that she's not happy with his high-profile behavior, so he said two words to her, and told her not to drink too much and become a drunk cat for a while, and then he took Qingfeng back to Shuixie.

Jiang Xuening followed the original road and went back to the flower hall.

But just after a few clumps of flower trees, suddenly I heard a few curses from the other side of the flower tree, spread out through the overlapping branches and leaves,

"cheap hoof let you run!""I don't know who you are. You've been raised by the government for many years, but you dare to go against heaven!"

"Stop her, press her down, wake up!"

There seemed to be a woman's desperate sob in the middle, but it was very vague.

Jiang Xuening's steps stopped on this quiet road. In the light of lightning, she realized what was happening on the other side of the flower tree, and her reason urged her to leave as soon as possible.

But I didn't listen.

She didn't know whether she was crazy or not. She gently raised her hand to open a branch and looked in through the gap.

There is a small lotus pond over there.

But in late autumn, the lotus leaves in summer have already failed, leaving the fading color of the pool, which has not yet been cleaned up.

At the moment, there are three women on the edge of the pool.

One of them, with a black face, took out his handkerchief and wiped his bleeding wrist. The other two women twisted you Fangyin's hand and pressed you Fangyin's head. They pushed you into the water!

Jiang Xuening only heard that you Fangyin had changed his temperament after falling into the water, but he didn't know it was such a "falling into the water" method!

Tang'er stood behind her in horror.

Jiang Xuening felt cold all over. The voice that had been shouting in her heart came out again, sharper and harsher than the last time -

don't go.

Don't go.

Everyone has his own destiny. Originally, you Fangyin was timid and stupid, and would only be bullied. Can you save her for a lifetime?

And you really don't want to see another you Fangyin?

Don't go. Don't go.

It's not you who killed, you just stand by!

The young ladies scolded you Fangyin for running away from the woodshed. They hated the unidentified common girl who was born to a cheap concubine and didn't know how to praise her. They wanted to torture her so that she would have a long memory and dare not commit it again in the future.

This will be very heavy.

Put people's head into the water, let her struggle, also don't let her up.

You Fangyin was locked up in the wood room for several days, but he didn't eat much. He was beaten again. How much strength was left?

I just struggled a few times and I couldn't move any more.

The water in the pool was cold, and it was hard to breathe when it poured into her mouth and nose. The previous fierce resistance gradually weakened, and a thin neck slowly sank into the pool

What a desperate gesture that was?

Jiang Xuening was stabbed in the eye.

No one knows the fear of death better than her, because she has experienced it once.

At that moment, seeing you Fangyin no longer struggling, there was a big bang in her head: I really saw such an innocent girl being murdered in front of her, and I really thought that when you Fangyin came, could she become a sincere friend with a clear conscience like the last life?

At that moment, Jiang Xuening's reason could not be controlled after all. When she called out "stop", she knew that her admonition to herself in recent days was in vain!

She is a selfish person.

It's not bad enough.

The three women by the pool were startled to hear the sound. They turned their heads and saw that a young lady of your family, who they didn't know, came out from among the flowers and trees, and quickly let go. But you Fangyin had already lost her strength. As soon as their hands were released, she fell down from the pool.

With the sound of "Putong", the man sank to the bottom of the pool.

First, the two women turned pale.

Jiang Xuening had no expression on his face, and even his voice was extremely cold and calm. He only said, "bring people up."

The two rude envoys just wanted to punish you Fangyin. How could they expect that she could not help tossing?

No matter how humble it is, it is also a common woman in the mansion.

If it's true, they can't afford it!

At Jiang Xuening's command, even when he regained his mind and hurriedly fished the man up and dragged him to the shore, he was all wet, his face turned blue and his eyes were closed.

The woman who first instructed people to do it was also flustered and said, "hurry up, take two pictures!"

Jiang Xuening stood aside, coldly looking at their rescue, also looking at this familiar face, but in her heart, she was in an unprecedented trance. For a moment, she couldn't even tell whether she was more looking forward to it or more afraid.

She thought that she was hypocritical.

Obviously, she could have come out earlier to scold, but she had to wait until she was dying before she came out to stop.

Perhaps, this can comfort herself: it's not that you Fangyin didn't want to come to this disgusting world. She tried her best, but she couldn't stop it.

"Cough!"

That coarseness made the old lady clap twice, but there was no response. In a panic, she used a lot of strength to clap at the back of the person, and then pinched the person. Then she coughed suddenly, and coughed out the water.One eye opened slowly and wearily.

At this moment, Jiang Xuening didn't stand firm, and he stepped back two steps.

Those eyes are not intelligent and transparent.

There was no soberness and indifference that she was familiar with.

There was only a rush of fear, a clumsy dullness.

It's not her.

In Jiang Xuening's heart, something fell to the ground, as if it had been redeemed. But then, there is a kind of loneliness, turning up, immersing her.

It's morning tomorrow, too. 15 character red envelope √
