Qiu Yuanchang stopped in front of the study in the southeast of the garden and said respectfully: "Fifth Miss! Mr. Hu is here!"
A gentle voice came from inside and said: "Thank you for your hard work, Uncle Chang. Please come in, Mr. Hu!"
When Hu Xiaotian heard this voice, it was like a clear spring flowing into his heart on a summer day. The voice was really pleasant. Judging from the sound alone, Li Wuyou should not be as ugly as the legend says. ↗,
Qiu Yuanchang saw Hu Xiaotian still standing still and urged in a low voice: "Master, please come in!"
Hu Xiaotian came back to his senses, smiled sheepishly, and walked into the study. He saw a petite figure in the study sitting in front of the window with her back to him. The morning light outside the window outlined her delicate figure.
Li Wuyou was wearing a long white dress, sitting quietly in a wheelchair, her hair hanging down like a black waterfall behind her head, tied with only a blue hair tie. Her dress was simple and unsophisticated, but
It makes people feel an otherworldly and elegant taste.
Li Wuyou turned the wheelchair and slowly turned around. She had a delicate face. Although she could not be said to be stunningly beautiful, she could still be said to be pretty and pleasant. However, her complexion was too pale. She might have lived indoors for a long time and lacked sunlight.
Because of this, his lips were also slightly pale, and his eyes looked very big, which were also the most lively part of his face. Li Wuyou blinked his eyes and quietly observed Hu Xiaotian opposite him.
Hu Xiaotian also looked at Li Wuyou, with a friendly smile on his face: "Hello, Miss Li, I'm Hu Xiaotian!"
Li Wuyou's lips curved into an elegant arc, and her pretty face suddenly became vivid. Her big eyes seemed to be able to speak. She blinked, nodded slightly and said, "I've heard about you a long time ago.
"Name, but today is the first time I see you." Luo Luo was generous. There was no shyness or reserve common among young girls.
Hu Xiaotian intuitively realized that the girl in front of him was different, but he didn't know what her real purpose was in wanting to see him? Was it just to satisfy curiosity or was it because he wanted justice for unilaterally breaking the engagement? How many times did he scold himself?
In other words, let out a bad breath? But no matter how you look at it, Li Wuyou is not that kind of person.
Li Wuyou said: "Our two families have always been family friends. Can I call you Brother Hu?"
Hu Xiaotian nodded and smiled: "Of course."
Li Wuyou said: "I have seen your birthday and horoscope before, and you are one month older than me."
Hu Xiaotian was secretly ashamed. Li Wuyou knew his birth date probably because they exchanged birth dates when they were engaged. But he had never paid attention to his former fiancée. In fact, Hu Xiaotian originally had a clear conscience, but when he saw Li
Wuyou was so weak and disabled that he couldn't help but feel pity in his heart. He whispered: "What does Miss Li want from me?"
Li Wuyou said: "I call you Brother Hu, you can call me by my name. It's not a big deal for me to come over to you. I just want to see with my own eyes what you are like." She blinked and said, "Brother Hu.
Wouldn’t you mind?”
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "What do you have to mind? In fact, I also want to see you."
Li Wuyou said: "What you said is very dishonest. If you have such thoughts, why didn't you come to visit me when I was an official in Qingyun?"
Hu Xiaotian couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when she exposed him in front of him. He coughed to cover it up and secretly sighed in his heart. Li Wuyou was not simple. He couldn't hide his lies from others.
Li Wuyou said: "Brother Hu, don't mind. I haven't seen much of the world. I usually only interact with family members and rarely interact with the outside world. So I don't understand the ways of the world, and I don't mince words when I speak."
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "This is the best."
Li Wuyou said: "Actually, I have never thought about getting married!"
Hu Xiaotian's scalp tightened, and he finally mentioned the engagement between the two. Since the girl brought it up, he had better listen quietly. Hu Xiaotian had already made enough psychological preparations. Even if Li Wuyou complained a few words, he would listen to it.
The thing is, you can't be like a weak woman with paralyzed legs.
Li Wuyou said: "When I first heard about this marriage, I heard that you were a fool."
The nonsense came out. He nodded and said: "It was true that I was stupid for many years, but suddenly one day I realized what I was doing."
Li Wuyou smiled gently and said: "It should be just rumors from the outside world. You are smarter than many people."
Hu Xiaotian said: "I can't compare to Miss Li's ice-snow smartness, quality, orchid heart."
Li Wuyou smiled calmly and said, "You praised me so perfectly, why did you break the engagement in the first place?"
Hu Xiaotian was stunned by her question with just one sentence. Sometimes her directness made it difficult to answer.
Li Wuyou shook his head and said, "Brother Hu, you are not honest at all."
You're talking nonsense, you're talking nonsense, but you're telling the truth less, Miss Li, don't be offended."
Li Wuyou said: "Brother Hu, I didn't come to you to cause trouble, I just wanted to see you."
Hu Xiaotian said: "The reason why I broke up the engagement was not because I was dissatisfied with Miss Li, but because the situation forced me to draw a clear line with the Li family, otherwise our Hu family would suffer disaster."
Li Wuyou said: "I know. In fact, I have never thought about getting married. If I marry like this, I will be a drag on others. The reason why our two families got married in the first place was all because of my parents' wishes. They had their own purposes.
.I have always wanted to see you and tell you clearly in person. Originally I wanted to tell you that it was impossible for me to marry you, but I never thought that you would beat me to it in the end."
Hu was simple and kind-hearted, without any ulterior motives. He said everything he said directly. Hu Xiaotian developed a good impression of this kind girl. He smiled and said: "If you are angry because of that thing, why don't you scold me and hit me?"
I can just vent my anger."
Li Wuyou smiled and said: "I'm not angry, I just feel a little strange, and I'm even more curious about what you look like. I finally saw you today."
Hu Xiaotian said: "How do you feel?"
Li Wuyou said: "He is very ordinary and friendly, just like the big brother next door."
Hu Xiaotian was quite dumbfounded when he heard her comment. Was he praising me or scolding me? When did I become so ordinary? He is obviously a handsome man with beautiful trees in the wind! After all, this little girl doesn't have much knowledge at home.
I know that beautiful men are all compared, and my charm must be compared with others to stand out. This guy has always felt good about himself.
Li Wuyou said: "Seeing you will finally fulfill one of my wishes over the years."
Hu Xiaotian saw that it was getting late, and his main mission here today was to wish Li Tianheng a birthday. He said goodbye to Li Wuyou: "Miss Li, I have to go to celebrate the commander's birthday, so I have to go first."
Li Wuyou nodded and said, "Go ahead, don't delay the business."
Hu Xiaotian left the study and returned to the main banquet hall under the guidance of Chang Bo. At this time, most of the important guests had arrived. When Liang Yinghao saw Hu Xiaotian coming back, he quickly came over and asked with concern: "How is it?"
Hu!"
There was a giggle in the distance, but it was King Xue Shengjing of Yongyan and the eldest princess Xue Lingjun who had arrived together. Hu Xiaotian was not in a hurry to go over and chat, because he saw Li Honghan personally greet them and accompany them to the table.
Xue Lingjun's beautiful eyes looked this way intentionally or unintentionally, and landed on Hu Xiaotian's face. A charming smile appeared on the corner of her lips. She should have completely returned to normal, although Hu Xiaotian was full of worries about what happened yesterday.
I am confused, but it is not convenient to go and ask at this time.
A familiar voice came from behind: "Brother Hu!"
Hu Xiaotian turned around and saw Hong Yingtai, the young prince of Nanyue Kingdom, also coming. Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "It turns out to be His Royal Highness!"
Hong Yingtai smiled shyly and said: "Brother Hu, you don't have to be polite, just call me by my name." Although he is the prince of Nanyue, Hu Xiaotian is also the future consort of Dakang. Nanyue has been a vassal of Dayong until now. In the past, he paid tribute every year, but
In recent years, Dakang has declined rapidly, and South Vietnam, a former vassal state, has also begun to treat Dakang with indifference, and even refused to agree to Dakang's request to borrow grain. In fact, the relationship between the two countries has also reached a freezing point.
Hu Xiaotian was not polite to him because he had talked about it in Zhongxiang Tower that day and knew that Hong Yingtai was one year older than him. He smiled and said: "Brother Yingtai, let's sit down and talk about it!"
The two people's seats happened to be arranged together, and they were all treated as distinguished guests. Opposite them happened to be a distinguished guest from Dayong. Hu Xiaotian and Xue Lingjun sat face to face, looking at each other at such a long distance. Hu Xiaotian was calm and leisurely. He thought that Xue Lingjun had
She felt a little guilty for abandoning herself, but when she met Xue Lingjun's eyes, she found that she was calm and composed, without any sign of guilt.
Amidst the cheers of the crowd, the longevity prince Li Tianheng finally appeared. The person who came with him was not his wife, but Zhou Wang Long Yefang. The scene was filled with thunderous cheers and congratulations and blessings.
Li Tianheng smiled and nodded to everyone, and from time to time he raised his hands and fists in return. Zhou Wang Long Ye also had a smile on his face, but it was not clear what he was thinking.
Hu Xiaotian looked at Long Yefang and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Long Yefang was in the current situation and it was worse than death. He was under house arrest and coercion by Li Tianheng, and was completely reduced to a pawn in his control of Xichuan to threaten Dakang. From the moment he had just talked with Li Tianheng
Judging from the dialogue, it is absolutely impossible for Li Tianheng to lead Xichuan back to Dakang, but I don’t know if he will make superficial remarks, even if he accepts the canonization of Dakang in a hypocritical manner, so that he can go back and resume his life. (To be continued...)
