Chapter 199 Gathering
The envoys from Canglong Kingdom and Yuhuan Kingdom are going to the capital today?
Ruan Youqing's expression became serious.
In the past few days, she was only focused on observing the actions of Fu Zhi and the three mothers in the mansion, but she ignored the outside news for a while.
And Ruan Chong and Mu Fei rarely discussed political affairs with them.
Therefore, the envoys of the two countries have arrived today, and Ruan Youqing only knew.
Ruan Youning beckoned Ruan Youqing to sit down, then glanced out the window:
"You Qing, you have the foresight. The private room we set up is in a very good location. Envoys from the Canglong and Yuhuan countries must go through this road when they come to Beijing. I said that when I turned this road just now, There are many more patrolmen on the streets than in the past.”
"Sister, have you met anyone from the Canglong Kingdom?" Ruan Youqing looked at her.
Ruan Youning shook his head and said: "On weekdays, I have a lot of contact with the barbarians of the Jie tribe, but I have never seen people from Canglong Kingdom."
"Looking at the anticipation on Sister's face, I thought Sister had met someone from Canglong Kingdom!" Ruan Youqing joked with a smile.
The two of you talked to each other very lively. Although Zhaodi on the side couldn't get in the conversation, the expression on his face was always cheerful.
And Debao looked at Ruan Youqing with curious eyes, then at Ruan Youning, and then asked tentatively, "Are Canglong Kingdom and Yuhuan Kingdom...good or bad?"
Children look at things and are always used to figuring out whether they are good or bad.
After Ruan Youning listened, he didn't know how to answer him.
Ruan Youqing turned his head and ordered a few dishes, and then looked at Depot's immature face and answered him: "Whether it is the Canglong Kingdom and Yuhuan Kingdom that we have good relations with, or the Guzi Kingdom that we have little contact with, , even...the Jie people and Nanting Kingdom who have wars with us, we can't judge them simply by good or bad. Because there are good people in Nanting Country and Jie people. And Canglong Kingdom and Yuhuan Kingdom, it is also possible There are bad people who are ambitious to covet our country of Ning. But...the bad people and the good people... are also difficult to distinguish."
Ruan Youqing said a lot, but after she finished speaking, she felt a little helpless about what she just said.
I said this to a seven or eight-year-old boy, he probably couldn't understand it.
Indeed, the little expressions on Depot's face became a little funny twisted together because of more confusion.
Seeing him like this, Ruan Youqing smiled slightly and continued to him: "Which is good and which is evil, which is black and which is white, has always been one of the problems that perplex the world. Maybe...you will be able to discover the truth when you grow up."
After hearing this, Debao nodded obediently.
"Do you mind if we go together?" There was a sudden knock on the door, and then a familiar voice came from outside the door.
Ruan Youqing raised his eyebrows in surprise, then looked at Ruan Youning: "Sister, it's...Master Gu...Do you mind..."
Before the words were finished, Ruan Youning stood up cheerfully and walked over to open the door in person: "My brother-in-law is here! How could we mind!"
When the door was opened, Ruan Youqing was overwhelmed with surprise when he saw the people standing in front of the door.
Just because... not only Gu Changan came here.
There are also the second prince Li Qian, Wei Wang's son Wei Jue, Xiao Deyin, the eldest daughter of the Xiao family of the Taifu family, and Li Ange, the princess of Puyang.
Jingbian and his party are all in one place.
Ruan Youning didn't expect to see so many people after opening the door, but she always likes to be lively. Although some people are unfamiliar, she still warmly welcomes them in.
Ruan Youqing saw that they were all familiar people, so he naturally spoke more familiarly: "What kind of auspicious day is today?"
After understanding what she meant, Li Ange took the lead and said, "Deyin entered the palace yesterday, so I invited her to go to the Ruan Mansion to look for you today. Who knows that you have already come out, so we have to come here to see if we can meet by chance. You. In the end, I ran into the Second Emperor Brother and the Crown Prince by chance."
Li Yi then smiled and said: "I came out with the prince, met Miss Xiao and An Ge, and then went together. After arriving at this restaurant, I met Gu Shoufu again."
"Master Gu..." Ruan Youqing looked up at Gu Changan.
An inexplicable intuition told her that Gu Changan might... come straight to her.
After all, this restaurant is his.
Knowing she's here, it's no surprise.
Sure enough, Gu Changan was looking at her with a smile.
In order to prevent the other party from saying anything to shame her, Ruan Youqing didn't give him another chance to answer, but turned around and introduced the identities of these people to Ruan Youning one by one.
After they got to know each other with a smile, they sat down.
Fortunately, this private room is not too small, and it is no problem to sit around ten people.
Xiao Deyin had already seen Debao and Zhaodi, and after everyone exchanged pleasantries, she couldn't help asking: "These two children..."
「I...we are distant cousins of the Ruan family!」
Unexpectedly, Zhao Di, who was always timid, had the courage to answer this question, which even sister Ruan Youqing didn't know how to answer.
However, there was a tremolo in her timid voice.
She never thought that she would meet so many noble people when she came out.
In the past, she felt that the Ruan family was already out of reach.
And today, it is the princess and the prince's son...
Ruan Youqing couldn't help being surprised to see Zhaodi's answer in this way.
"They are my younger brother and sister." After hearing Zhaodi's answer, Ruan Youning added with some guilt.
Originally thought that they would reveal their identities.
As a result... this younger sister who had always been restrained took the initiative to help her cover up the truth.
Although Xiao Deyin could see that Ruan Youqing and sisters looked a little wrong, she was not the kind of person who casually pryed into other people's privacy. After she nodded and greeted the two children, she didn't ask any more questions.
Li Ange, who was sitting next to Ruan Youqing, didn't pay attention to these things. At this moment, she was focused on complaining to Ruan Youqing.
"You said, how long has it been since you came back from Jingbian? If I don't come out to look for you, you don't know to come to the palace to look for me? The queen mother mentioned you to me a few days ago, saying that you haven't visited her in the palace for a long time, you said , are you a little heartless!"
Being blamed by Li Ange all over the place, Ruan Youqing only felt like a heartless person.
Ruan Youqing rubbed her brows helplessly, and coaxed her softly: "Okay, okay, I was wrong. In a few days, I will definitely go to the palace to accompany you and the queen mother. I just called the waiter in this restaurant. Mung bean paste, relieves heat and drives away heat, just to drive away your anger."
Li Ange snorted, and stopped chattering.
Debao and Zhaodi sat next to Ruan Youning, one on the left and the other on the right. Seeing the people in front of them who had never dared to think of it talking and laughing happily with the two elder sisters of the Ruan family, a slight change began to take place in their hearts.
Is it... Their future identities can also make friends with these noble people...
Ruan Youning was a little cautious at first, but under the coordination of Ruan Youqing and Li Ange, the group of people finally got to know each other thoroughly.
Just as Ruan Youning "persuaded" Wei Jue to drink his eighth glass of wine, the window suddenly became noisy.
"What's the matter?" Ruan Youning, who was a little drunk, turned his head to lean out to have a look.
Seeing this, Ruan Youqing hurriedly grabbed her by the collar to prevent her from accidentally falling off.
But Gu Changan raised his brows lightly, and his voice was as casual as ever: "It should be the envoys from Canglong and Yuhuan Kingdom who have arrived,"
