Chapter 67: Nangong Yichen is back
Since the Furong Poetry Club ended, Ye Qingge has been somewhat idle. In recent days, Fan Jing has run the iron shop in an orderly manner. Herb has also acted as a housekeeper. From time to time, she follows Ye Qingge to check the accounts and so on. Jing Zhan
The toxins in my body are slowly being decomposed, and my physical condition is much better than before.
The house repairs have come to an end in the past two days, and today happens to be the Mid-Autumn Festival. Ye Qingge gave all the craftsmen a day off. In the evening, after dinner, Ye Qingge took his family to the street to watch the lanterns. After all, she
I just received a dividend from Fan Jing.
Watching Lin'er and Xiaoyue jumping around and waiting to go to the street, Jing Zhan sat alone at the table, secretly poking at the corner of the table.
"Brother Jing Zhan, are you sure you don't want to go to the street? There are a lot of delicious food and fun things on the street, as well as beautiful lanterns." Lin'er walked forward and asked, blinking her big eyes.
Jing Zhan, who was on the side, tilted his head and said with a stubborn expression: "What's good about going out on the street? I can't even talk about it anymore!"
"Oh! Brother Jing Zhan doesn't like shopping!" Lin'er was a little disappointed.
Ye Qingge heard the two chatting from a distance. He shook his head and walked in with three cute masks. He gave them to Lin'er, Xiaoyue and Jing Zhan and said: "Come on, one for each of you. Today
We are all considered mysterious people!" He handed the masks to a few little ones.
"Wow, sister is so awesome!" Lin'er and Xiaoyue put the masks on their faces and looked left and right in the mirror, their faces full of joy.
But he looked at Jing Zhan and said, "Brother Jing Zhan, let's go then. You should stay at home! We will bring you delicious food when you come back."
"I want to go too!" The stubborn boy Jing Zhan put on his mask and walked out boldly before Lin'er could react.
Lin'er on the side scratched his head: Didn't he say that he couldn't go on? How about coaxing the child?
...
The streets today are very lively. All the shops are decorated with lights, various acrobats and strangers are performing on the street, dragon and lion dancers are passing through the streets, firecrackers are exploding, and there are endless shouts and chants.
Xianghua, Xiaoyue and Lan'er all gathered around Ye Qingge. They looked here and there for a while. Lin'er and Jing Zhan bought whatever they saw along the way. Zhou Quan and Zhou Yang successfully became porters.
While working, Xiaobai and the two little ones were also running around in the crowd.
"Sister, I want one." Xiaoyue held a piece of osmanthus candy in her mouth, pointed at the candied haws next to her and said, but she couldn't hold the osmanthus candy in her mouth and almost sprayed it all over the floor, which made everyone laugh.
laughing out loud.
Lin'er on the side ran up to the vendor and asked for eight candied haws, and gave one to each person. Xiaobai and the other two also wanted to eat, so Lin'er had no choice but to buy three more candied haws. Just like that, a group of people
It’s so lively to eat and shop at the same time!
However, Xiaobai and Dabao Erbao, who had finished eating the candied haws, did not follow Ye Qingge and his group for shopping. Because today is the fifteenth day and it is also the time when the spiritual energy is the most abundant in January, Xiaobai took his two younger brothers to practice.
After Ye Qingge and others walked for a while, he heard the young gentlemen next to him talking as they walked: "I just heard that the prince set up a painting boat by the Annan River tonight and invited many gentlemen and ladies to watch the lanterns.
There are also chess games and lantern riddles set up, which I think will be quite lively, and more importantly, Gu Wanxi is also here, should we go and have a look."
"Are you talking about Gu Wanxi, Taifu Gu's granddaughter?"
"That's right, who else could it be besides her? I wouldn't hesitate to go see the others!"
"Then it's better to hurry up."
As they spoke, they quickened their pace and walked towards the Annan River.
Vanilla on the side couldn't restrain her curiosity and stepped forward and asked: "Miss, who do you think Gu Wanxi, the granddaughter of Taifu Gu, is? Why were those people so excited when they heard her just now?"
"Can you not be excited? She is the most beautiful woman in Yunlan Kingdom. She is the granddaughter of Taifu Gu. Her name was given by the Queen. It comes from [The Book of Songs·Zheng Feng·Wild Weeds]" There is a beautiful person, clear and elegant.
Xi. She is thirteen years old this year and has never been married. Not only is she beautiful, but she is also versatile. The queen also intended to marry her to the prince, but she declined." Jing Zhan looked arrogant when he heard Vanilla's question.
replied.
"Hey, brother Jingzhan, how do you know so much?" Lin'er asked, bending her head.
"I am..." Jing Zhan was about to blurt out his life experience, but stopped himself in time.
Lin'er wanted to ask "But what?", but Ye Qingge stepped forward and interrupted, "She is the most beautiful woman in Yunlan Kingdom. Anyone in Beijing must know it, and your brother Jingzhan can know it too."
Not surprising."
"Oh, that's right, but Brother Jing Zhan doesn't even remember his family." Lin'er was a little disappointed, but she quickly raised her chest and said, "But it's okay, we will all be Brother Jing Zhan's family from now on."
"Hmph, who wants to be a family member with you?" Jing Zhan, the big boy, was still very stubborn, but he didn't forget to slip Lin'er's collar when he left: "There are so many people, why should we run away? If we run away again, we will lose it!"
Seeing this, Vanilla and Lan'er also covered their mouths and giggled, and said they weren't a family. They obviously didn't care, so they spoke harshly.
In this way, the group of people went to the Annan River talking and laughing.
On the other side, Ye Qingyao also arrived at the painting boat with the newly promoted maids Pearl and Coral. After all, it was the prince's group. As the prince's favorite, of course she had to be invited.
At this time, a group of young ladies had gathered on the painting boat, including Concubine Ye's daughter Nangong Hanyan and son Nangong Cheng. Of course, some of them had never appeared at the Furong Poetry Fair, but everyone was dressed similarly to Ye Qingyao. It seemed that this
The younger sons and daughters are all of higher status in the family.
Several of them were friends with Ye Qingyao. When they saw Ye Qingyao coming, they quickly went up and pulled Ye Qingyao and said, "I knew you would come. I have been waiting for you for a long time."
The prince's attendant also came forward and said: "Miss Qingyao, the master has prepared a private room for you alone. I have been waiting for you for a long time. Please come with me."
This operation made Ye Qingyao very proud. Several honey friends on the side also held Ye Qingyao's arms and walked in more cordially. But before they got on the boat, one of them recognized Ye Qingge and said: "Qingyao, that's not you.
Big sister? Why is she here? "
"?" Following the direction pointed by Mi Friend, Ye Qingyao looked and saw Ye Qingge coming over. She was wondering who invited Ye Qingge to come, when she saw Ye Qingge and his party were stopped by a boy not far away.
Next, I wanted to show the invitation, but Ye Qingge obviously didn't have it, so he had no choice but to turn around and leave.
"It turns out that you can't even get in, but you still want to join in the fun?" The speaker was another close friend of Ye Qingyao, Liu Beibei, the daughter of Yushi Zhongcheng Liu Shen.
Ye Qingyao heard Liu Beibei's sneer and did not echo it. Instead, she scolded: "Beibei, that's my eldest sister, you can't laugh at me!" Although it seemed like a slight scolding, the smile on his face was sweeter than before.
Already.
"Okay, I understand, Qingyao is generous!" Liu Beibei held Ye Qingyao's arm and said loudly.
"Well, let's go see my eldest sister together." Ye Qingyao said, leading a few honey friends to Ye Qingge and said:
"Sister, are you also here to watch the lanterns? But don't you have an invitation? If you want to come in, just follow me. The prince won't say anything, but they may not be able to come in. After all, it's not appropriate for me to bring them in."
Too many people are coming in." Ye Qingyao said in an awkward tone, and glanced at Jing Zhan and the others.
Before Ye Qingge could say anything, Jing Zhan went up and said, "What's so good about the lanterns on this boat, we won't go there." After saying that, he called Lin'er to go elsewhere.
Seeing Lin'er follow Jing Zhan away, Ye Qingge said: "I won't bother my sister, they are not interested!" With that, he led everyone away.
"Qingyao, look at them, they really don't know how to praise you. You were kind enough to bring them in, but they didn't appreciate it. They actually said that the lantern festival organized by the prince was not interesting. How bold!" Liu Beibei angrily defended Ye Qingyao.
Just as he was talking, Nangong Yao walked out of the boat with several young masters from aristocratic families and said: "Qingyao, I have been waiting for you for a long time, why didn't you come in?"
When Ye Qingyao saw Nangong Yao coming out to look for her in person, he hurriedly walked over with a smile. Liu Beibei on the side was indeed Ye Qingyao's favorite honey friend. Before Ye Qingyao could say anything, she stepped forward and said: "Prince, just Qingqing
Yao saw that her sister couldn't come in, so she stepped forward to say some words of concern and wanted to bring them in, but they thought the lights on the boat were not good-looking, so they turned around and walked away, so they were delayed for a while. "
"Oh? Qingyao's sister is here? Do they still think my king's boat is not good?" Nangong Yao said, obviously a little angry.
"Well, no, they are still there!" Liu Beibei said, pointing to Ye Qingge and his group who were watching the lanterns opposite.
Nangong Yao looked in the direction Liu Beibei pointed, and happened to see Ye Qingge bringing a few small lanterns that complained about them.
The boy next to the prince whispered: "Your Highness, it's her! The woman you bought the dagger from last time."
Before Nangong Yao could say anything, a young master from an aristocratic family beside him couldn't see it and stepped forward and said: "How brave! Did you also point at the prince's lamp?"
"It's just that you are so ugly, but you still have the nerve to say that the lamp is ugly, instead of lighting up the lantern to shine on yourself." Another young man from an aristocratic family waved his fan leisurely and mocked disdainfully.
"You!" Jing Zhan heard this and was about to reply when he heard a scolding sound coming from behind him:
"Who gave you the courage to say that my princess is ugly?"
Everyone turned around and saw that Nangong Yichen was wearing an ice-blue brocade robe, with her hair lightly tied, her chin slightly raised, her bright eyes and exquisite facial features, as if she had a beauty that could not be blasphemed like a god from the Nine Heavens.
