Luo Qingyan was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help but smile, "How could it not be good-looking? Is there a woman in the world who is more beautiful than my princess?"
Yun Shang suddenly blushed and broke away from Luo Qingyan's arms. She bit her lip and stood aside, feeling her heart beating very hard. Why did this man look so indifferent and could not even talk about love?
Without blinking an eye.
Qin Yi brought the clothes and cloak over and put them on Yun Shang. Luo Qingyan stood aside and stared at Yun Shang intently. Yun Shang was so looked at by his gaze that she even lost the courage to look back and just stamped her feet.
Stomping his feet, he said, "Why don't you change your clothes? You're going out soon."
Luo Qingyan laughed softly, then stood up, picked up his clothes and walked into the clean room.
It was almost the time when the two of them went out. Since they had to go to the palace for a banquet on New Year's Eve, the New Year's Eve at the Duke's Mansion was regarded as a family reunion, and almost everyone in the family was present.
, very lively.
When Yun Shang and Luo Qingyan were introduced into the courtyard by the steward of the Duke's Mansion, they saw that the garden was filled with red lanterns. Children were playing in the courtyard, and firecrackers were set off. The crackling sounds could be heard from time to time in the courtyard.
The women gathered around the plum tree in the yard, eating fruits and chatting, laughing from time to time. The men stood under the eaves and seemed to be talking about something, but they also had a bit of a smile on their faces.
.
Yun Shang and Luo Qingyan stood at the door, both in a daze.
"It's rare to see such a situation. When I was in the palace, New Year's Eve was lively, but I was also trembling. I was afraid that I would do something wrong, and the joy would be much less." Yun Shang said softly.
Luo Qingyan nodded, was silent for a moment, and then said: "Let's have a few more children, so that the New Year and the holidays will be so lively in the future."
Qin Yi and Qian Zui walked two steps behind them. Although they spoke softly, they heard them very clearly, and both of them couldn't help laughing.
.
It was this smile that made everyone in the courtyard look over.
"Aunt, aunt..." Yun Shang often came to the Duke's Mansion. The children in the Duke's Mansion were all familiar with her. As soon as they saw her standing at the door, they all ran towards her.
"Be careful, your aunt has a younger brother and sister in her belly, don't hit your aunt." Shen Yilan yelled quickly and ran over in a hurry.
Luo Qingyan quickly stood in front of Yun Shang. When the group of little ghosts saw this, they frowned and raised their eyes to look at Luo Qingyan. Luo Qingyan looked a little unhappy, so the little ghosts took a step back and sighed.
Yan'er from Yilan was the boldest. She stood in front and looked at Luo Qingyan with her hands on her hips. She frowned and said, "Hey, who are you with this coffin face? Why are you standing in front of my fairy daughter aunt?"
Yun Shang stood behind Luo Qingyan and couldn't help laughing when she heard this.
Shen Yilan quickly picked up Yan'er and slapped his butt twice, "What nonsense are you talking about! This is your uncle, and he is your aunt's husband."
Yan'er reached out and rubbed the buttocks that had been spanked by her mother, but she didn't cry out in pain. She just screamed in an extremely exaggerated way, "What? You said this coffin-faced man is aunt's husband? How is that possible? Auntie wants to marry me.
Yes! Auntie is so beautiful, how could she fall in love with this coffin face?"
Many people in the yard laughed. Seeing Luo Qingyan's face turn darker, Yun Shang smiled and poked her head out from behind Luo Qingyan: "That's not what you said last time. He is talking about wanting to marry his aunt’s daughter as his wife.”
Yan'er struggled desperately in Shen Yilan's arms. Although Shen Yilan was strong, she couldn't withstand such a fuss, and she accidentally jumped down.
"Is my wife-in-law coming out soon? Is she in aunt's belly?" Yan'er looked at Yun Shang with wide eyes.
Yun Shang suppressed a smile and nodded, "But if you want to marry your sister, you can't say he has a coffin face. He is your sister's father. If you offend him, you won't be able to marry your sister."
Yan'er looked at Yun Shang's belly, then at Yun Shang, and finally his eyes fell on Luo Qingyan. After pondering for a while, he walked to Luo Qingyan and knelt down in two steps, "Father-in-law, sir. , please accept your respects from my son-in-law."
"Hahahahahahaha..." A burst of laughter suddenly sounded in the courtyard.
Luo Qingyan was also a little bit dumbfounded, "This kid!"
"Father-in-law, my son-in-law wants to marry your daughter. Please marry your sister to me." Yan'er's expression was extremely serious as he continued.
Luo Qingyan said with a straight face, "Who told you that it must be my sister, or maybe my brother."
Yan'er was stunned when he heard this. Everyone looked at him and saw a look of struggle on his face. After pondering for a long time, he seemed to have made up his mind, "If my brother is as beautiful as my aunt, I will marry him too!" "
"Hahahahahaha!" Everyone laughed again. Only Luo Qingyan and Shen Yilan had dark faces. Shen Yilan came over again and picked up Yan'er, raised her hand and slapped his butt. Beat him up.
The Duke's wife smiled for a while, and then said to Luo Qingyan and Yun Chang, "Okay, why are you making trouble with the children? Qingyan quickly took Chang'er to sit in the house. It's cold outside. It's uncomfortable to stand for a long time. not good."
Luo Qingyan nodded and took Yun Shang into the house.
The dinner was also very pleasant, probably because Luo Qingyan did not get into trouble with Duke Hua. After dinner, Luo Qingyan followed the men to the study, and Yun Shang was with everyone in the room. While chatting, the children and their servants set off fireworks outside. It was not until Haishi that they left the Duke's Mansion.
Yun Shang fell asleep while still in the carriage. When they arrived at the palace, Luo Qingyan carried Yun Shang back to the courtyard with her cloak.
The next day, when Yun Shang opened her eyes, she saw Luo Qingyan's face appearing in front of her. For a moment, Yun Shang closed her eyes again. After a while, she opened her eyes again.
Luo Qingyan was amused by Yun Shang's dazed look. She smiled and took Yun Shang into her arms: "Today is New Year's Eve, so we are off."
Yun Shang finally regained consciousness and looked at Luo Qingyan blankly, "What time is it?"
"It's almost noon. I already got up and went to the martial arts field to practice for an hour. Then I went to the study to read for a while. When I came back, you were still sleeping. So I was thinking about how long you would sleep, so I came up to accompany you. We slept together." Luo Qingyan said with a smile, "But are we getting up?"
Yun Chang nodded, and Luo Qingyan got up first and put on her clothes, then called Qin Yi and Qian Zui in to serve Yun Chang and get up.
After the two had lunch, Yun Shang remembered Liu Chuchu who had been brought into the house yesterday. After pondering for a moment, Fang turned his head and looked at Luo Qingyan, "Why don't you bring Liu Chuchu here and ask her now?" ?”
Luo Qingyan pondered for a moment and then agreed, and Yun Shang asked Qianzui to quietly bring Liu Chuchu over.
After a while, Qian Zuo came over with Liu Chuchu. It must have been to confuse other craftsmen installed in the house. Liu Chuchu wore a set of maid's clothes, her eyes were blindfolded, and although her appearance was not stunning,
But it's not much different, and her temperament is so outstanding that even ordinary maid clothes can't hide it.
Liu Chuchu seemed a little scared, and her body was trembling slightly, but she still forced herself to calm down. As if she noticed that someone was looking at her, Liu Chuchu straightened her back, bit her lip, and then said softly, "You guys
Who is he and why did he bring me here?"
Yun Shang smiled and asked Qin Yi to take the paper and pen over and write on the paper and pen. After writing, Fang handed the paper to Qin Yi. Qin Yi took a look and said: "
Miss Liu Chuchu?"
Liu Chuchu didn't speak, just stood still.
Qin Yi laughed, and then said softly: "I heard that Miss Liu Chuchu of the Liu family was ordered to marry into the Seventh Prince's Mansion on December 23, but she was killed by a gangster and died unexpectedly. Now this matter reaches His Majesty and Jin.
Everyone in the city knows it. Now Miss Liu is standing here safe and sound. If I report this matter to Your Majesty, Miss Liu will commit the crime of resisting the decree and deceiving the emperor, but it will... implicate the nine tribes."
Liu Chuchu trembled slightly, then she said with a chuckle, "Your Majesty can be seen by you if you want? And as you said, everyone knows that Miss Liu is dead, so what does it matter if you say that I am Liu Chuchu?
Evidence to prove it?”
She was really a smart woman. Yun Shang smiled and wrote three words on the paper. Qin Yi then said: "Of course there is evidence, and the evidence is Jiao Weiqin."
Liu Chuchu bit her lip and frowned slightly. She was silent for a while, as if she was thinking about how to respond.
Qin Yi then spoke again, "I brought Miss Liu here today with no ill intentions. I just want to ask why Miss Liu ran away from her marriage? Who is the person who died in the Seventh Prince's Mansion?"
Liu Chuchu was silent for a moment, and finally spoke: "If I had been asked to marry the seventh prince a year ago, I would have been extremely happy, but in this situation, my uncle has been sentenced to death, and it is a serious crime of treason.
, Although His Majesty's kindness has not harmed the nine clans of the Liu Mansion, the Liu Mansion has become useless to the Seventh Prince. At this moment, if I enter the Liu Mansion again, it will only add stain to the Seventh Prince.
The prince would definitely not allow it. After thinking about it, my parents both felt that it would be very difficult for me to live in the Seventh Prince's Palace. I didn't want to be like this, so my parents asked my maid to replace me on the charge of resisting the emperor and bullying the emperor.
They got on the sedan chair, sent me out of Liu Mansion, and quietly found a place to stay."
Liu Chuchu paused, and her voice trembled slightly, "I knew that I would not be happy in the seventh prince's house, but I never thought that something like that happened on the day of my wedding. My parents were very lucky and sent me out early.
In the house, otherwise I will be the one who gets into trouble. I don’t seek wealth and fame, I only seek a safe life. Now that Liu Chuchu is gone, I beg this girl to let Liu Chuchu disappear from now on." Liu Chuchu suddenly knelt down on the ground.
, kowtowed three times in the direction of Qin Yi. (To be continued)
