Traveling through the heavens from the prequel of the Lotus Lantern

Chapter 671: Looking at Qing Yan and smiling lightly, in fact, the most indifferent nature is indifferent

Two days later, Yong'an Palace.

Yang Jiao and Yue Fei were both dressed in plain white dark clothes.

One of them was meditating cross-legged on the couch, and the other was reading quietly on the desk not far away.

After a while, Concubine Yue raised her head and glanced at Yang Jiao, and said helplessly:
"Today, on the first day of the dynasty, your father will be at the Deyang Palace to receive congratulations from officials and envoys from other countries. He will also be given a banquet as usual. As the prince of the dynasty, how can you not be present?"

Yang Jiao closed his eyes and replied calmly:

"I have asked Cao Changshi to send a message to the emperor. I angered my mother and concubine, so I was punished by her mother and concubine. I was punished in Yong'an Palace to think about my mistakes behind closed doors."

Concubine Yue laughed and scolded:

"Zhuzi, you are really good at pushing back."

Yang Jiao replied calmly:

"It's not like my mother-in-law doesn't know. Like you, I never want to participate in these boring banquets."

"Besides, after the wedding, I will leave the palace and open a mansion, and my mother-in-law doesn't want me to stay with you for a while longer."

After Concubine Yue heard this, a hint of joking appeared on her eyebrows:
"Among the many princes and princesses, you are the one who doesn't care how long it takes to leave the palace and open a mansion. Your third brother and second sister, as well as other princes and princesses, all come to you for instructions in the year of dancing elephants and the year of hairpins. My father wants to leave the palace and open a mansion."

"And you are already eighteen years old and still living in the palace peacefully. I don't want you to suddenly ask your father for instructions and plan to leave the palace and open a mansion."

"Maybe it's because of the ordinary friend you mentioned before, the fourth lady of the Cheng family."

Yang Jiao's expression remained extremely calm:

"Mother and concubine should know that since I am a prince, there will always be people who have some ideas about me. Coupled with the behavior of those girls in the capital, if I leave the palace and open a mansion, there will be no peace at all."

"That's why living in the palace is the most comfortable."

He paused slightly:
"As for whether leaving the palace and opening a mansion has something to do with the fourth lady of the Cheng family, it probably has something to do with it."

Concubine Yue did not expect that he would admit it openly. For a moment, she couldn't help but feel curious in her heart, thinking about what kind of girl she was, who could treat her son, who had always been untainted, as if he was in the clouds. , pulled into the world full of fireworks.

Just because she had been raised since childhood, she didn't know that her son, who looked at Qingyan and smiled lightly, was actually the most indifferent and cold-hearted.

"It seems that we must find a time in the future for the fourth lady of the Xuancheng family to come to the palace to see her, so that your father and I can take a good look at her."

Yang Jiao's eyes were half closed:

"If the mother-in-law feels bored staying in the Anle Palace, she might as well do some boxing and keep fit."

Concubine Yue smiled:
"Hearing what you say, I want to meet the fourth lady of the Cheng family even more."

Yang Jiao closed his eyes and remained silent, as if he had fallen into a deep state of trance.

When Concubine Yue saw this, the smile on her face became even stronger.

The next day.

There is an extremely low-key prince's mansion in the capital, but even so, as many princes and princesses sent congratulatory gifts to the mansion, many girls from aristocratic families also sent congratulatory gifts, and at the same time, they also included a greeting card. , I want to visit you.

As a result, everyone inside and outside the court knew that the fourth prince, who had always lived in seclusion, finally left the palace and opened a mansion.

But what was surprising and what seemed to be reasonable was that the fourth prince of the current dynasty still adhered to his past style and did not like the excitement and declined all visitors.

But this still cannot stop the unbearable excitement of many girls, because every girl who has seen his true appearance in the palace has not secretly felt admiration for him.

It's a pity that this fourth prince seems to be very easy to get along with, but he is the most unkind. Even if he wants to get close to him, he often leaves without talking for a few words.

And because he was in the palace, he could not lose his etiquette, so he could only look at the ocean and sigh.

Therefore, I don’t know how many girls who are not yet married, seeing that the submission failed, began to make various ideas.

Some sent people to wait at the prince's palace, some visited other princes and princesses, some took roundabout routes, and some even tried to climb over the wall.
Therefore, in the next ten days or so, the Prince's Mansion was very lively, but no matter who it was, they could not see the fourth prince who lived deep in the mansion.On the other side, except for Cheng Cheng who went out to study and Cheng Shi's eldest son to guard the border, all the Cheng family returned to the capital.

Moreover, they also moved into a new house, but because of a bookcase, the whole Cheng family became lively again.

A side hall.

A woman with an average to above average appearance, although she seemed a bit ordinary, but with graceful eyebrows and a natural and approachable manner, which was already better than the seven or eight beauties in the world, said lightly to Xiao Yuanyi beside her:
"My wife is so powerful today, it scares me."

After hearing this, Xiao Yuanyi became furious:

"Am I majestic? Look at that bastard, forcing me to say every word, she is majestic."

The woman was Sang Shunhua, the bride of Cheng Zhi, the youngest son of the Cheng family. She shook her head:

"You deserve it. My wife made a mistake when she started. She obviously wronged Niao Niao, but she didn't give her a word of justice. You can't stand up for yourself. How can you show off your mother's prestige? You deserve to be forced to this point."

Xiao Yuanyi pointed in the direction of the lobby:

"Just look at those careless evildoers. What's the matter? They nail each sentence one sentence at a time. Can't I see the tricks of that old woman and the little maid?"

"Looking back, I secretly regretted it. If you have to expose it in public, where will I be able to show off my shame in the future?"

Sang Shunhua sincerely advised:
"Don't be too close to each other. I'm not happy to hear that. It's not unusual for people to have biases in their hearts, but my wife's partiality is too much. Even I, my aunt, can't stand it anymore."

"Just now, my wife even mentioned such a heinous crime of disobedience. If I really force Niao Niao to death, let's see how my wife will explain to her uncle-in-law."

Xiao Yuanyi frowned:
"She contradicted me with every word, and she refused to give in. She made me angry all of a sudden, and I lost my head."

Sang Shunhua's expression showed a hint of joy:
"I never thought that Niao Niao would be so brave. You wanted to rely on the power of your elders to convince her, but she is not afraid at all."

When she said this, she asked slowly:
"Have you thought about how to explain to your uncle-in-law?"

Xiao Yuanyi simply said:
"Husband, I will naturally explain it. I did something wrong in this matter. I cannot hide it. It's just what happened today. How should it end?"

A light smile appeared on Sang Shunhua's face:
"Don't go out. I'll go and tell those little enemies that you were so angry that they fainted. Go back and ask the children to apologize to you. Just be vague and the matter will be over."

Xiao Yuanyi disagreed:

"How could it be handled so carelessly?"

Sang Shunhua didn’t take it seriously:
"Family matters are not political disputes in the court. There is no such clear distinction between black and white."

Xiao Yuanyi sighed:

"Oh, I just want justice."

Sang Shunhua followed her wishes and said:

"I know that my wife is the most just, but there are some people in this world who, in order to show their fairness and selflessness, sometimes treat others well and treat their own flesh and blood harshly."

She added at the end:
"Tell me, is it funny or not?"

Seeing Xiao Yuanyi looking over, he laughed and said:

"If Sifu continues like this, she just wants to force Niao Niao out of the Cheng family as soon as possible."

"These days, I heard that Niao Niao has a close friend who has an extraordinary friendship. Is it possible that my concubine really wants to marry Niao Niao so quickly and then never interact with her until death?"

Xiao Yuanyi looked serious:
"Xu Xian seems to be a nice person to get along with, but I always feel a sense of indifference in his movements, especially when I look at his appearance, he is like a banished immortal who came to the world, and he is not the same person as Niao Niao at all. "

"Moreover, being raised in a deep palace is full of dangers. You and I are not unaware of the dangers involved. How could I watch her fall into the shadows of swords and swords?"

Sang Shunhua had no choice but to say:
"Okay, the children are still kneeling in the lobby, I'll go over first."
