There is a starving ghost in Qingyun Temple

Chapter 69 Predictive Dream 04
Shen Huihe and Huikong took their seats in the corner of the banquet.Huikong was full of curiosity about the back garden and had gone to find food somewhere.

As the sun sets, more and more guests are taking their seats. Being able to be a guest of the Duke of Qin's mansion is naturally not something that ordinary people can attend at will.Some familiar guests chatted enthusiastically, while some unfamiliar guests walked around and made friends.

Shen Huihe was sitting in a remote corner, drinking tea and eating fruit, feeling at ease.

The first few ladies in fine clothes were chatting, sometimes talking about the cruise ship on Xiaoping River, and sometimes mentioning the gold croaker soup in Fanlou.

On the other side, several gentlemen passing by were praising Yuan Jiasanlang for being as gentle as jade and knowledgeable, and that he would surely be named on the gold medal list and make great achievements in the future.Mrs. Fang burst into laughter upon hearing this, covering her mouth repeatedly to show her humility.

"Ms. Shen, that is Boss Su, the richest man in Pingjiang City."

"That is Mrs. Liu of Marquis Yongping. She is a famous beauty in Suzhou."

"That one is from the Duke's cousin's family."

Yingqiu was chattering beside her, and she listened with a smile. After a short while, she had already finished two large plates of sweet and fresh fruit.

"Yingqiu, these red dates are sweet and leave a fragrance on your lips and teeth, but you can still get another one——"

"Ms. Shen, look, look -" Yingqiu grabbed her sleeves, her eyes seemed to be filled with gold and silver, and she looked happily in a certain direction -

Shen Huihe followed her gaze, shook his head, and suddenly felt that the sweet dates just now were a bit bland.

"Prince Jingbei and Princess Zhaoqing have arrived."

As soon as these words came out, the guests present fell silent immediately, saluted respectfully and said: "The prince is well, the princess is well."

Guo Ningzhi was all smiles today. The extremely precious Hetian jade plum pattern hosta she saw that day at Qiongzhen Tower was pinned to her dark and smooth flowing bun. Her peach pink rose embroidered shirt and skirt made her even more delicate. So silly.

She stood next to Li Yun, looking at him with affectionate and tender eyes.

Li Yun turned back to look at her, leaned down slightly and whispered in her ear. He said something interesting, which made Guo Ningzhi cover her face and chuckle, shy and cute.

Guo Ningzhi also stood on tiptoes slightly and answered him with a smile.Li Yun smiled lightly and nodded frequently to show his approval.

In Shen Huihe's view, it was a rare and generous smile displayed by His Royal Highness.

The ladies and husbands on the other side were talking about how graceful and graceful the Princess Zhaoqing was, and praising the Prince of Jingbei for his majestic appearance and the jade trees facing the wind. When they stood together, it was like the golden wind and jade dew meet each other. , but there are countless victories in the world.

Shen Huihe looked at the two people not far away. The man was handsome and the woman was beautiful. They were a perfect match. They were indeed a match made in heaven.

"Oh, this little lady looks a little unfamiliar!"

Shen Huihe was startled when a tall, thin and strange man came to her.Lang Jun stared at her with a smile, his whole body smelled of strong alcohol, and he was holding a nearly empty wine bowl in his hand.

Yingqiu was stunned for a moment before she realized that this Yuan Jiawulang was the cousin of the Duke of Guo, and he was also a well-known bohemian and promiscuous playboy in Pingjiang City.

Yingqiu turned slightly to the side, trying to block him in front of her: "Yuan, Mr. Yuan's family is well, my slave—"

Yuan Wulang glared at her: "Master hasn't spoken yet, when will it be your turn, a humble slave, to speak!"

"Young master of the Yuan family, Madam Shen is——"

Shen Huihe patted Yingqiu on the shoulder, indicating to her that she was fine.She lowered her head slightly, pretending to be timid and said: "Lang, Langjun is well."

Yuan Wulang sat down in the empty seat beside him and said with a smile: "It turns out to be Mrs. Shen! I wonder which family Miss Shen is a relative of? It seems that I have never seen her before!"

"Hui, Hui Langjun, my daughter is the Shen family, a distant relative of the Duke's wife's mother's family."

"Oh oh oh, hello, Mrs. Shen. It turns out that she is a distant relative of my cousin's aunt!" The stranger took the teapot and poured a new bowl of hot tea and handed it to her, "Ms. Shen, please use the tea."

"Thank you, Yuan Wulang." Shen Huihe smiled gently and drank the entire teacup in his hand.

"Wu Lang and I see Mrs. Shen sitting here alone. I'm afraid she is a little lonely. Why don't I let Wu Lang and I chat with the lady to relieve her fatigue?"

This was not a question, nor was it asking for her consent. It was an affirmative sentence that she could not refuse.

Yuan Wulang stared at her with a smile, took the teapot and poured another cup of tea. His hand movements became a little unscrupulous, and the other hand was trying to grab her wrist.

"You're welcome, Yuan Wulang, but I've just had tea, little girl, so I won't bother Yuan Wulang anymore."

Shen Huihe turned sideways to avoid his wanton movements, and his delicate voice became much colder.

Yuan Wulang saw that she was confused and his face was dull, and most of his face turned dark.

I just looked at her from a distance, looking thin and pale, with no one around to care about her. I thought she must be a good-natured little lady, but I didn't expect that she still has a bit of toughness, and I suddenly felt a little angry and couldn't get out of it. .

"Ms. Shen, do you know who I am?! I am the nephew of the Duke of Guo. More than half of the property in Pingjiang City belongs to our family, and we can't use up all the money—"

"Yuan Wulang——" Shen Huihe paused, and out of the corner of her eye she saw his shoulder leaning against her. She quietly turned over her hand under her sleeve, and suddenly there was a talisman in her hand, and her palm was about to become windy. "you--"

"what--"

Huikong's foot fell in the air and fell towards the Hu table. He accidentally overturned the hot teapot and tea bowl on the Hu table.

The tea rolled down towards the corner of the table, not too much, not too little but just right.By the time he reacted, most of Yuan Jiawulang's clothes were already wet.

Yuan Wulang immediately changed his expression and cursed in anger: "What the bastard -"

"Yuan Wulang, what do you mean by this?!" A gentleman's clear words came from in front of him, and the man helped Huikong, who fell to the ground in a state of embarrassment.

When Shen Huihe and Yuan Wulang saw clearly who was coming, they were both startled.

Yuan Wulang suddenly lost his arrogance and said solemnly: "Shi, Shizi, this young gentleman has overturned -"

"Since the young gentleman fell down accidentally." Li Yun didn't look at him twice, patted the dusty hem of Huikong's clothes, and asked softly: "Is the young gentleman injured?"

"I-I'm fine. Thank you for your help, Your Majesty." Huikong blushed and carefully picked up the hem of his clothes and ran back behind Shen Huihe.

"Yuan Wulang, I'm afraid your unclean clothes will make the Duke angry, why not-" Li Yun spoke coldly, but not as softly as before.

Yuan Wulang trembled all over, knowing that he was not being unreasonable. He quickly thanked him and followed the slave to the backyard to change clothes in disgrace.
