Chapter 79: A smile can conquer a city, another smile can conquer a country
Ye Qing looked at Zhang Xiuran's eyes filled with venom, without any hesitation, and nodded silently.
Ye Qing couldn't imagine how much power the Gong family had in Jinling, where Huaiyang was located.
But Ye Qing knew that offending the Gong family was no different from seeking death.
But Zhang Xiuran said that if he opened his mouth, he would still do it even if he was doomed.
Ye Qing owed it to him.
Dudu~
The boiling tea made a pleasant sound.
Zhang Xiuran poured the tea and put it down on the wooden tray. Suddenly, he looked at Ye Qing with interest and said:
"What do you think of Miss Shangguan?"
Ye Qing paused for a moment and thought of Shangguan Lanxi's smile just now. He said from the bottom of his heart:
“A smile can captivate a city, and another smile can captivate a country.”
The words came out well, making Zhang Xiuran full of confidence in the next thing. At the same time, he looked at Ye Qing with admiration and said seriously:
"Hahaha, Ye Qing, I really belong to you. What this poem says is true."
The next moment, he asked unexpectedly:
"How does my Wanqing family compare with Miss Shangguan?"
Ye Qing said directly without hesitation:
"There are thousands of flowers, and they are all different."
Zhang Xiuran, who was very satisfied with Ye Qing's answer, stood up with the tray and said softly:
"With the surname Shangguan, there is only one Shenqi family, so you have to take good care of it."
After saying this, Zhang Xiuran walked slowly outside.
Ye Qing frowned, something about the surname Shenqi Shangguan appeared in his mind, and he murmured:
"Sister-in-law? Phoenix man?"
"Don't say I don't want to, even if I do."
"How can a being like Shangguan's family look down on me?"
Shangguan Lanxi's beautiful face came to mind again.
His slender hand covered his heart, feeling his heart pounding.
He shook his head and said: "Beautiful women are rare. It's a pity. I absolutely can't have any inappropriate thoughts."
Ye Qing, who had a clear understanding of his status, stood up, quickly followed Zhang Xiuran, and walked out.
They didn't notice that in the cabin, behind the screen of the wooden couch where the two of them were sitting.
A handsome young man, as rich as jade, was silently and carefully sipping tea.
After the two of them left.
Dan Dan put down the tea cup in his hand and said with a flash of eyes:
"It's really unexpected of you to be treated so seriously by Gong Jia Linzi, Zhang Xiuran."
"Zhang, is it possible that the divine Zhang family is here?"
"But Zhang Xiuran, I have never heard of you. Could it be that you are a side branch of the unknown concubine of the Zhang family?"
Shan Dan thought about it and found that Zhang Xiuran did not exist in his memory about Zhang.
However, to be able to have Mo Wanqing, the favorite of the Shenqi Mo family, follow him all day long, he must not be an unknown person.
But no matter how hard he checked, he couldn't find Zhang Xiuran's true identity, which really made Shan Dan take the next step.
Think of this.
Shan Dan stood up, looked at the obedient maid beside him and said:
"Stay here, find the right opportunity, and when there is no one around, invite Gong Yuxiu to talk to me."
"Yes, sir."
After the maid agreed, Shan Dan left quickly.
On the third deck of the boat.
Because she was afraid of disturbing Shangguan Lanxi, Gong Yuxiu asked her attendants to stand at the entrance to the third floor and prohibited others from coming up.
The three of them climbed up and looked into the distance, admiring the beautiful spring scenery.
Gong Yuxiu looked at Shangguan Lanxi with a sweet smile on her face lovingly, and said softly:
"Sister Lanxi, can you be inspired by such beautiful scenery?"
Shangguan Lanxi shook his head and said humbly:
"Brother Yuxiu is here, how can Lanxi do whatever he wants to do?"
"Lanxi's reputation as Jinling Linzi is well known in Kyoto."
Just when Gong Yuxiu was about to humble herself and continue to encourage Shangguan Lanxi to compose a poem.
Zhang Xiuran came up carrying tea with a roar.
"Come, come, Wanqing, let's have some tea."
"Lan Xi, you should also try this tea from Huaiyang and feel the unique rain flower tea from Huaiyang."
"Thank you!" Shangguan Lanxi bowed dignifiedly and politely, and then took the tea.
When Mo Wanqing picked up the tea cup, she said softly:
"You don't have to be so polite to Zhang Xiuran, he is me."
Qin Se and Ming's words filled Zhang Xiuran's eyes with tenderness.
The Shangguan Lanxi elf shook his shoulders strangely, pretending to be disgusted, and joked:
"Ah, this tea is so sweet. Even before I drink it, it feels too sweet to swallow. Wanqing, what should I do?"
As he said this, Shangguan Lanxi winked playfully at Mo Wanqing.
The jade fingers with thin calluses lightly poked the smooth forehead.
Mo Wanqing's eyes showed a trace of anger and said:
"Playful."
"Hee hee hee!"
Shangguan Lanxi smiled, raised his sleeves to half-cover his face, and took a sip of tea.
His eyes also caught sight of Ye Qing, who was following Zhang Xiuran with a gentle smile but remained silent.
When the girl fell in love at first sight, her heart beat wildly, and her eyes were filled with ignorant shyness and exploration.
Ye Qing was a little overwhelmed.
Especially Zhang Xiuran's words made him even more unable to look directly into the girl's pure apricot eyes.
Ye Qing turned his head away and looked at the lush woods beside the river bank.
Shangguan Lanxi could only be regarded as this handsome and gentle man, as shy as a woman.
Thinking back to the time I met Ye Qing, apart from hearing him compose a poem when boarding the ship, and then greeting everyone on the first deck, he had been silent.
Shangguan Lanxi couldn't help but think wildly: "Master Ye is so taciturn, wouldn't he like to talk a lot?"
A young girl living deep in her boudoir, who accidentally meets the husband she describes in her heart, will not think about the superiority and inferiority of her family background.
I will only think about this sweetheart who has touched my heartstrings. What kind of woman does he like? Is it like me? How can I attract him?
Thinking of this, Shangguan Lanxi made up her mind to speak less and keep everyone's ladylike dignity.
Shangguan Lanxi, who was inexperienced in world affairs, had emotions written all over his face.
It was easily seen through by a few people in the room.
The bohemian Zhang Xiuran's smile became even stronger.
Mo Wanqing, who was as cold as an iceberg, frowned slightly with worry.
Gong Yuxiu, who was as gentle as jade, had a little more darkness in her eyes.
And Ye Qing, who felt uncomfortable with the beauty, subconsciously clenched his hands under the wide-sleeved robe, and his gentle smile was a bit far-fetched.
He was never used to it and didn't know how to get along with women. He was uneasy and would rather deal with those old foxes like Chen Yuming now.
An innocent girl touched the heartstrings of four other people.
Shangguan Lanxi tried her best to remain reserved and dignified, sipping Yuhua tea in small sips.
After a few breaths.
She suddenly realized that no one was talking.
The little deer's heart beat wildly, and it instantly became even more joyful.
With her round, almond-shaped eyes, she began to blink at Mo Wanqing and kept gesticulating with her eyes.
Mo Wanqing knew it well, but confusion appeared in her eyes and her brows furrowed slightly.
Shangguan Lanxi, who was anxious in her heart, looked at her close friend and pursed her lips towards Ye Qing.
But Mo Wanqing remained indifferent.
When Gong Yuxiu saw this scene, her eyes fell on Ye Qing and she examined him carefully.
Zhang Xiuran took a step forward without leaving any trace, blocked Ye Qing, and met Gong Yuxiu's eyes with a smile.
Snapped!
The mountain water silver fan in my hand was opened, blowing the breeze on the deck impatiently, making the lavender gauze clothes keep rising and falling.
With a look on her face that didn't deserve a beating, Gong Yuxiu rubbed her gauze sleeve with her right hand out of habit.
Just when Shangguan Lanxi couldn't help but want to talk to Ye Qing.
Tread!
Soft footsteps sounded from the stairs.
Everyone looked over.
Gong Yuxiu's eyes were filled with joy and she spoke with great respect:
