Sheng Yunzhao finished speaking calmly, leaned down again, turned around and left.
Ji Xuan was left looking at her tall and slender back with some confusion. He felt something was different about Sheng Yunzhao.
In the past, when she saw him, she either had a hint of resentment, or she just wanted to talk about it.
But now, she was completely deserted.
He raised his hand habitually and pinched his smooth chin.
In his eyes, Sheng Yunzhao knows how to advance and retreat, understands the general situation, and is good at restraint and forbearance.
But tonight she was unusually tight.
However, she was always self-aware and had sent her maid to look for herself again and again before.
Knowing that he would ignore it, he actually came over in person.
It seemed like I had to go to her yard after the guests had left to see what she wanted to do.
Duo Mu urged: "Sir, it's better to go there quickly, so as not to keep King Huainan waiting for a long time."
After hearing Duomu's words, Ji Xuan immediately let go, narrowed his eyes, and asked, "Do you know where King Huainan went before?"
There were many guests here tonight, mainly the prince and the King of Huainan. The important point was that the relationship between the two was not harmonious and it was difficult for him to take care of both. After entertaining the prince, he found that the King of Huainan was not there, so he asked Duomu to look for him.
The main reason is that he is worried that King Huainan will be worried because of this, thinking that he is deliberately neglecting him.
Domu: "I said I went out to sober up."
"Is there anything else strange?"
"Did not see it……"
The master and the servant walked quickly towards the study room in the front yard while answering questions.
Entering the study, Ji Xuan didn't see anyone at first glance. He turned around and saw a tall, slender figure standing in front of the window with his hands behind his hands.
It was Yue Chen's banquet. Ji Xuan's eyes flashed slightly and he immediately said: "I'm sorry for neglecting Brother Zi Chen."
Yue Chenyan slowly turned around, his face as if carved from ice without any expression, "It doesn't matter..."
His slender fingers moved, thinking of the slender figure running away in panic, Yue Chenyan did not take out the handkerchief in his sleeve and say anything.
If it was a ploy, she didn't need to run away.
"You disappeared when I turned around. I just sent Duomu to find you..." Ji Xuan asked tentatively.
Yue Chenyan looked indifferent: "I drank too much and went out to relieve the alcohol. It's time to go back home. I'll wait for my mother here."
Ji Xuan breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this and immediately asked him to take a seat.
After letting Duomu serve tea and sending him out, Ji Xuan said straight to the point: "Just in time, I was also about to discuss your marriage with Yao'er..."
King Yue Chenyan of Huainan was the only king with a different surname in Dachu, named Zichen. His family background was more prominent than his own, and he was a hereditary king.
When the country was established, Yue Chenyan's ancestor almost became the emperor.
However, the ancestors of the Yue family valued love and righteousness, and were willing to submit themselves to the throne and promoted their good brothers to the throne.
It's just that after a few generations, the brotherly love between Bo Yuntian and Bo Yuntian was not 01:30, but now it is more complicated and subtle.
However, I don’t know why, but the Huainan Palace has always had little success, with only one inheritance passed down from generation to generation.
Duke Ji's Mansion and Prince Huainan's Mansion were close friends for generations. In the previous generation, the old Duke and the old prince had an even more irreconcilable friendship, so they happily made a marriage alliance.
The next generation will get married.
However, this generation of Huainan King Yue Chenyan had already passed the age of marriage and had already passed the marriageable age, but he still did not respond.
It would be fine if he had someone he liked, but he was notoriously not a womanizer.
The point is that the younger sister's heart has long been secretly promised to Yue Chenyan.
The younger sister was spoiled rotten and pestered him to help more than once.
For this reason, Ji Xuan also had a headache. He tried Yue Chenyan several times, but he was always put off by him. Today Ji Xuan simply spoke frankly.
Yue Chenyan was supposed to propose the marriage, but Yue Chenyan has always been cold-hearted and unsmiling. If she had waited for him to propose it, my little sister might not be able to wait until she grows old.
Besides, the relationship between the two families is on display here, so there is nothing unjustifiable if he mentions it.
"What about you?" Yue Chenyan picked up the tea and took a sip. When he raised his eyes, his already indifferent eyes showed no warmth at all, "I thought you understood..."
"How can you and I be the same? If you have someone you love, I will..." Ji Xuanwei paused for a moment, then shook his head helplessly, and said with a bitter smile: "Forget it, I won't force you. You. You are really boring when it comes to talking about it. If you don't speak, you will be poisoned and killed!"
I really don’t know what my little sister likes about this incomprehensible guy.
Ji Xuan slandered and continued: "But, brother Zichen, just give me some face. Don't be too busy refusing. Just give Yao'er a chance to get along with her. Maybe you will like her?"
……
It was not until Haishi that the guests dispersed and Duke Ji's mansion finally became quiet.
Sheng Yunzhao dragged heavy steps back to his room. He was tired and wanted to lie down on the bed and have a good rest immediately.
But she couldn't do it yet. She had to wait for Ji Xuan, so she sent Yun Niang and the girl away, and she sat alone in front of the dressing table and waited.
The candlelight danced, and Sheng Yunzhao stared blankly at himself in the bronze mirror.
The originally clear and bright face was only two years younger, but now there was no flesh at all, the chin was pointed, and the complexion looked sickly pale, looking extremely haggard.
Two years of melancholy and various pressures made her skinny and depressed.
Sheng Yunzhao gradually became a little distracted. She and Ji Xuan were married by imperial decree. Nowadays, she values civility over martial arts. She, who was born in a general family, has fallen behind Ji Xuan, who was born in an aristocratic family.
Not surprisingly, it has attracted the envy and jealousy of many women.
On the day she was given the marriage, despite her conventional nature, she could not control her joy for a long time behind her back.
In the past two years, the two of them have maintained the illusion of treating each other as if they were guests in front of outsiders.
But the fact is that before the wedding, Ji Xuan found her and asked her to go with him to the imperial court to request an end of the engagement.
For Sheng Yunzhao, this was like a bucket of cold water being poured on her head. At that time, she seemed to hear the sound of her own heart breaking. .
The first glance she had when they first fell in love cast a mottled shadow for thousands of years.
However, Sheng Yunzhao cannot be as wanton as Ji Xuan when it comes to emotion, reason, and etiquette.
She refused several times, but in the end Ji Xuan just said coldly, "Don't regret it!"
On the wedding night, Ji Xuan even said to her coldly, "Since you insist on not going to the imperial court with me to ask for an annulment of the engagement, then you should keep the title of Crown Princess for the rest of your life."
She thought that as long as she treated him sincerely, one day he would warm his heart.
However, this sentence almost became a prophecy. She had been married to him for eight years, and he had left her alone in the empty house for eight years, as if he was punishing her.
She also thought it was her punishment at the time.
Until she was about to die, Ji Xuan came back with the mysterious woman he had hidden for several years.
A five-year-old child was also brought back.
It's just that the woman's identity is what makes Sheng Yunzhao hang in peace...
