The First Traitor [Rebirth]
Chapter 72
Only Yuan and Nan Lian in Yuan Mansion received the invitation from Luo Mansion. She can also bring the original reward to the past.And Yuan Ye is the Minister of the Ministry of Officials and has the title of a bachelor, and she is the wife of the first rank, but the Luo family actually surpassed them and invited Yuan Jing!
After Nan Lian got the invitation, Yuan Li ordered someone to take out his new clothes, and was busy preparing gifts for Mrs. Luo.Everyone in the Yuan Mansion saw him so attentive, and couldn't help but wonder: "I don't see him being so active when I accompany the princess back to see her relatives. Why are they so concerned about Mrs. Luo's birthday?" Not to mention that Yuan Li and the Luo Mansion have no intersection at all. of.
Yuan Li smiled and said, "As a county horse, I should be by the princess' side."
Everyone thought: You still have this kind of awareness? !
Yuan Li looked at Nan Lian with a hint of provocation and arrogance in his eyes: "Princess, do you think so?"
Everyone's eyes instantly focused on Nan Lian's face, as if they saw that Nan Lian had no reason to refute him openly, and there was a smile on the corner of his mouth.
Nan Lian glanced at him, and suddenly smiled: "Naturally."
The smile is rare and warm, making people mistakenly think that Nan Lian is as gentle and considerate as when she first married. Only Yuan Li can see the disdain and ruthlessness in her eyes.
"This woman!" Yuan Li gritted his teeth secretly, he must make Nan Lian look at him with admiration, surpass Yuan Jing and even his father, so that Nan Lian can no longer despise him.Then he will be able to play with Nan Lian between applause and torture her!
The reason why he actively wanted to attend Mrs. Luo's birthday banquet was because he wanted to take this opportunity to make friends with Luo Lao Hanlin and Luo Qilang.It's a pity that he didn't make friends with the Luo family because the people in the Luo family were very low-key, and because Luo Lao Hanlin became an official, and he didn't have much influence in the court, so Yuan was a step ahead.
After hearing King Qi's words, he suddenly realized that his previous vision was too short-sighted.Although Luo Lao Hanlin has retired, there are still many of his students in the court. Because of his low profile, he is rarely mentioned in the court.But this does not mean that he is not worth making friends with. On the contrary, if he can catch his eyes, there will be many people in the court who will help him in the future.
The Crown Prince and the King of Qi also wanted to befriend Luo Lao Hanlin, but unfortunately Luo Lao Hanlin was invulnerable and invulnerable, and kept a distance from them with the courtesy of a monarch and minister.The prince still has Feng Ying by his side, so he doesn't take him seriously.On the contrary, King Qi, although he has many supporters around him, is still a young man with little prestige, far less powerful than a respected old courtier who can win more people for him.
Since Yuan Li listened to Pingyao's suggestion and contacted King Qi, he finally felt the feeling of being valued by King Qi.King Qi greeted him in person, called him brothers and sisters, and felt that he was not taken seriously in the Yuan family.
Everything in Yuan's family originally belonged to him, but with Yuan Jing's existence, everything was taken away from him.He was not reconciled, but in the end he still couldn't fight his father's preference for her, which made her attract more and more attention.
Walking on the street, if people talk about Yuan, they will definitely praise her, and they want to marry their daughter who has not left the cabinet to her; .
But it's not good to fight against the father after all.Yuan Li also had this concern. King Qi laughed and said, "I have worked with Yuan Shangshu for many years, and Yuan Shangshu is the pillar of the country. Don't say that I have no enmity with him. Even if there is enmity, a gentleman will repay his grievances with virtue, and I will not embarrass him!"
On the day of Mrs. Luo's birthday, Yuan Li woke up very early. He learned that Nan Lian hadn't woken up yet, so he went directly to her room, but when he pushed the door, he was blocked by the latch and couldn't open it no matter what.
"Where's the Princess?" Yuan Li asked Chuu Yu.
"The princess hasn't woken up yet, why did the county horse come to see the princess so early?"
Yuan Li glared at her: "Didn't get up? Today is Mrs. Luo's birthday, why isn't she up yet?"
"The princess doesn't plan to go to Mrs. Luo's birthday banquet, so naturally there is no need to get up early to prepare."
Yuan Li opened his eyes wide: "I don't plan to go, but..." He suddenly remembered that Nan Lian had never stated that she was going to Mrs. Luo's birthday banquet. As for the invitation, she just sent someone to decline it. That's all, there's no need to explain it to him.
"You, you!" Yuan Li left in a rage.He felt that he was deceived by Nan Lian, thanks to his careful preparations for this day, but in the end Nan Lian still played him like a monkey.
When he saw that Yuan Jing was leisurely learning boxing kung fu with Mai Ran in the garden, his thoughts turned a thousand times, and finally he walked over: "Second brother!"
It turned out that she staggered and almost fell into the pond. Fortunately, Mai Ran grabbed her by the collar with quick eyesight and made her stay safely on the ground.She regained her composure, and looked at Yuan Li with a weird look: What did the princess and sister-in-law give him to eat his brain again?
"Brother." Yuan Jing tidied up his clothes and greeted Yuan Li.
"Aren't you going to Mrs. Luo's birthday banquet?"
"Really?" Yuan pretended not to understand, "So, brother and sister-in-law don't intend to go?"
Yuan Li stared at Yuan Jing's expression, trying to see some clues from it, but Yuan Jing's disguise was too good, he really couldn't see whether Yuan Jing joined forces with Nan Lian to restrain him.He waved his hand: "It's all right." After speaking, he left.
Yuan actually looked at his back and thought.Nan Lian had never told her that she was going to decline the invitation, and it was the Luo family. Since Nan Lian and Luo Qijiao were close friends in the boudoir, it was natural that they should go.But why didn't Nan Lian go?
"Master, are you still practicing?" Mai Ran asked.
"Eat breakfast, take a shower and change clothes to celebrate your birthday!"
It turned out that when we arrived at Luo Mansion, the time was just right.The Luo mansion was full of guests, most of them were relatives and former students of Luo Hanlin, and the female relatives were all accompanying the old lady in the inner courtyard.
Luo Laohanlin asked Luo Qilang to lead Yuan to the old lady, her gaze roughly swept over the faces of the female relatives nearby, wondering if she could see Luo Qijiao.Although she didn't know Luo Qijiao in this life, she came to Luo's residence so many times, but she didn't meet her once, so she felt a little curious.
Congratulating the old lady on her birthday and sending a birthday message, the old lady seemed very satisfied, with a kind smile on her face all the time.Before he had time to chat a few more words, Luo Qilang called Yuan Jing to go outside, but at this moment the housekeeper came to report: "Princess Luohua is here."
It turned out that hearing this name reminded her of her injured leg, but since Nan Lian received the invitation, Princess Luohua was also indispensable, she had already arrived, so there was no need to deliberately avoid it.
Princess Luohua came here in disguise, she didn't make any noise, and after she came, she went directly to the inner courtyard except to meet Luo Hanlin.When she saw Yuan Jing, she frowned, and her eyes glanced at the female relatives in the inner hall,
"Is the princess looking for the princess? She didn't come." Yuan actually looked at Princess Luohua with a guarded expression.The latter also found out that there was no sign of Nan Lian, so she was relieved.
"Forgive her for not daring to come!" Princess Luohua snorted.
"Why didn't the princess dare to come here? As far as I know, she has been here several times, but I have been to the Luo Mansion many times, but I have never heard that the princess often comes." Although Yuan was speaking for Nan Lian, she did not Have a tempting mind.
"I want you to talk!" Princess Luohua said, but she still wanted to make excuses, "I don't think you can go out often!"
Yuan actually opened his mouth, but a gentle and delicate voice came from beside him: "Luo Hua."
Turning his head to look, he saw a thin woman wearing a more gorgeous purple and green long-sleeved beige, coming gracefully.Yuan Jing's eyes stayed on her face for a moment, and Dang even looked away to avoid suspicion.
This face is very familiar, but it is also very strange. It is slightly different from the face in the memory of the previous life.The face in the previous life was a bit baby fat, pink, and a little pockmarked.She doesn't know how to make up a little bit at all, and at the same time, her figure is also plump, unlike the face at this moment, which is bloodless and has no pockmarks.The figure is slender, as if it will fall down when the wind blows.
"Xiaojiao, why did you run out? There is a man here!" Princess Luohua quickly walked to Luo Qijiao's side, blocking Yuan Jing.
Yuan Jing thought to himself: You don't allow Luo Qijiao to see men, but you have a "tryst" with me, isn't this too "only the state officials are allowed to set fires, and the common people are not allowed to light lamps"?
But then she remembered Nan Lian saying that Princess Luohua didn't like men, so she froze for a moment: Could it be that the woman Princess Luohua likes is Luo Qijiao? !
Yuan was a little startled by his own guess, and then secretly observed.Luo Qijiao's eyes lingered on Yuan Jing's body for a while, then looked at Princess Luohua and said, "Brother is also here, it's okay."
"But this person is Yuan Jing!" Princess Luohua said, turning her head and glaring at Yuan Jing fiercely.
Luo Qilang was also confused when he heard it, he touched Yuan Jing, and asked in a low voice: "You also have entanglements with Princess Luohua?"
"Me?" Yuan actually thought she was so innocent, she was misunderstood by others for flirting around without doing anything.Before explaining, Luo Qijiao said to Princess Luohua, "I know she is Yuan Erlang."
"That--"
"But this has nothing to do with her, does it? Why should Luo Hua take her anger out on her?"
When Princess Luohua heard the words, she couldn't refute, so she glanced at Yuan Jing full of resentment, took Luo Qijiao's hand and walked in: "Don't be angry, take me to see the old lady, or it will be too late. "
Luo Qijiao was dragged away by Princess Luohua, and forced herself to speed up her pace to keep up with her. After walking for a while, she turned her head to look at Yuan Jing, with complicated eyes that Yuan Jing couldn't see through.
"What are you looking at, let's go!" Luo Qilang blocked Yuan Jing's sight, as if dissatisfied with her staring at his sister.
Yuan actually walked out with Luo Qilang, and said something inexplicable: "The temperament is quite different." Suddenly she asked, "How did Lingmei fall into the water?"
"Why are you asking this? Today is a day of great joy, so it's worth not mentioning these things."
"I was rude, please forgive me."
After drinking birthday wine and eating birthday banquet, they all dispersed by Youshi.It turned out that Luo Qilang drank a lot of wine, she didn't expect that Luo Qilang, who was always gentle and elegant, drank very boldly, and almost knocked her down.
Holding on to the wall of Luo's mansion, she vomited twice, until she vomited out everything in her stomach before sitting in the corner, leaning against the wall and closing her eyes to rest.Suddenly she heard someone talking to Mai Ran, she opened her hazy eyes, but saw a little girl: "My lady asked me to bring hangover tea to Mr. Yuan, please drink it before going back."
"Your lady?" Although Yuan was drunk, his mind was very clear, "Luo Qijiao?"
Mai Ran sniffed the bowl of hangover tea, found that there was no problem, and handed it to Yuan Jing, who drank it all in one gulp, before saying, "Thank you miss for me."
The little girl went back to her life, Yuan actually felt that her body was not too uncomfortable, so she stood up and walked back to Yuan's mansion.She entered through the back door, walked through the walled verandah, and went to the garden to see Nan Lian strolling in the courtyard.
This veranda is a little higher, and you can get a general view of most of the garden.Yuan actually sat down on the long leaning railing of the veranda, looked at Nan Lian for a long time, until he felt a bit of coolness in his body, then he called out to Nan Lian: "Sister-in-law of the princess."
Her voice startled the servants who were cleaning the garden, and everyone looked at what was happening on the high veranda.And Nan Lian had seen her when she appeared on Chaoshou veranda, but she had no reason to look for her right now, but she found her without thinking about her, and she was so upright.
"Do you know what interesting things I discovered when I went to celebrate my birthday?" Yuan Jing said.
After Nan Lian got the invitation, Yuan Li ordered someone to take out his new clothes, and was busy preparing gifts for Mrs. Luo.Everyone in the Yuan Mansion saw him so attentive, and couldn't help but wonder: "I don't see him being so active when I accompany the princess back to see her relatives.
