Chapter 244: Poetry, late but late
Looking at Lian Wei's expression, Su Changan smiled helplessly.
But looking at Lian Wei, Su Changan was puzzled. She had such a good relationship with Lin Han? Lian Zhaoxin was used to it?
There is gossip!!
Su Changan was sensitive to this matter and decided to ask these two people what was going on.
But at this moment.
Su Changan felt someone pulling his clothes.
Looking down, I saw it was Su Wan'er.
Su Changan bent down.
Su Wan'er immediately leaned over to Su Chang'an's ear and said, "Big sister, actually it was the third sister who made a snowman in the Yimei Courtyard to welcome you, because she said she was still a stranger to you and felt embarrassed. Then my brother saw it and made one too, but it was better looking than the third sister's, so the third sister deliberately made fun of my brother's and said it was so ugly, and my brother fell for it and ruined it, so the two of them didn't make a snowman at all."
"But I tell you, when they found out you were sick and still walking around, and you were coughing, they got really anxious. The third sister kept asking the second sister, and my brother was so anxious that he was just walking around in circles."
After saying this, Su Wan'er looked at Su Chang'an and smiled.
Su Changan looked at the lovely Su Wan'er and smiled, then asked, "What about you?"
When asking this, Su Changan looked at the traces of crying in Su Wan'er's eyes, but Su Wan'er shook her head and said, "I know that big sister must know the answer!"
Su Changan hummed and said, "Yes, someone is crying again, but I didn't tell who it was. I just wiped her eyes."
As he spoke, he helped Su Wan'er gently wipe the corners of her eyes.
Su Wan'er had followed Yuan Ruxi and Mr. Shuiyun, and had been watching Su Chang'an do so many things, so she had become quite smart. Naturally, she realized at the first moment that she had been seen through.
She blushed immediately, but thinking of her older sister, she coughed and said, "That's right! Let's not expose her!"
Having said this, Su Wan'er let Su Chang'an help wipe the corners of her eyes.
Su Changan was stunned for a moment, then laughed and scolded: "Little girl, don't learn to be so shameless as me. You want to be a female sword fairy in the future."
And just when Su Changan finished speaking.
The curtains that kept the house warm were lifted.
Then I saw it was Su Linhan.
In addition to Su Linhan, Xia Yaomo was also following behind.
"Greetings, Her Majesty." Su Linhan looked at Su Changan and immediately bowed.
Xia Yaomo, who was standing behind him, also bowed and said, "Meet the Emperor's sister-in-law."
After Su Changan glanced at Su Linhan, he looked at Xia Yaomo.
During this period, Xia Yaomo came to the palace several times, and he didn't seem as strange as when they first met.
Moreover, his father, Prince Wang An, and Princess An had also been to the palace, and Su Changan had met them both.
So there is no such thing as unfamiliarity or not.
As soon as Su Linhan came to Su Changan, she said, "How is your health, sister? There were too many people outside, and it was hard for me to get out and get here."
Su Changan said: "I'm fine."
Hearing this, Su Linhan breathed a sigh of relief, but
Su Linhan noticed that something seemed to have happened between Su Qingning and Su Zhaoxin, and was puzzled for a moment.
When the two noticed Su Linhan's gaze, they immediately avoided her gaze.
Su Linhan knew that something must have happened, but she thought about dealing with it later, instead of worrying about Lian Wei.
Su Linhan was a little surprised to see Lian Wei's outfit today, and then smiled slightly.
Lian Wei saw Su Linhan looking at him and smiled slightly. He lowered his head, perhaps because he was thinking about what Su Qingning and Su Zhaoxin had just said about telling her Su Linhan's secret.
This made Su Linhan even more curious.
The reason why the elder sister is here? It doesn't seem like it. Is there something else going on?
Xia Yaomo on the side actually wanted to ask about the emperor's sister-in-law's health, and when he heard Su Changan say that she was fine, he was relieved.
but.
Before Xia Yaomo could say anything to Su Changan, Xia Yaomo saw Lian Wei. After a startled expression, he immediately clasped his fists and said, "Hello, Sister Lian Wei."
Lian Wei immediately clasped his fists in return: "Your Highness, you are joking."
Su Changan was stunned for a moment, and looked at the two people in confusion. These two people actually know each other? I haven't heard of it.
Su Linhan saw the confusion on Su Changan's face and explained with a smile: "Lian Wei went to deal with her brother Lian Qiao, and the Crown Prince knew Lian Qiao. Then, because the Crown Prince was busy meeting his confidante, Lian Qiao heard about it and said that she would introduce her sister Lian Wei to the Crown Prince."
"But... how should I put it? After Lian Qiao took the salary, he kept going to the red-light district. When Lian Wei found out, he went to beat Lian Qiao up. Unexpectedly, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was there at the time. As a result, Lian Qiao was beaten badly. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also saw how powerful Lian Wei was and respected him very much."
Hearing this
Xia Yaomo looked at Su Changan a little embarrassedly.
Lian Wei pulled up his blindfold again, wondering how Lin Han could tell the Queen about such a thing. This was a misfortune for the family!
but
Su Changan blinked and looked at Xia Yaomo, then at Lian Wei, and finally at Su Linhan: "Tell me first, why do you know this in such detail!"
Su Linhan immediately said, "Because I was there when Lian Wei beat Lian Qiao, and I accompanied her to find Lian Qiao."
Su Changan looked at Su Linhan and said, "Wow, you two have become best friends now, right?"
But after Su Changan thought about it for a while, he looked at Su Linhan and said seriously: "Next time there is something exciting like this, remember to call me."
After Su Linhan heard this, she was stunned for a moment, then smiled and nodded.
but
Su Changan looked at Xia Yaomo, but he didn't expect that this boy could know Lian Qiao. It was really a fate.
But when I thought about Lian Qiao going to Huajie, I shook my head helplessly. She deserved to be beaten. I didn’t even dare to go, and you still went!
but
Just when Xia Yaomo appeared.
Maomao stopped organizing the things he was doing, stood silently in front of Yan Ruyu, and then looked at Xia Yaomo with a vigilant look.
Su Changan was used to seeing this scene, because when Xia Yaomo first entered the palace, Maomao looked at Xia Yaomo in this way.
This happened several times afterwards.
Don't even mention Xia Yaomo
Even Xia Fengxiang asked him what was wrong in surprise.
But Su Changan also shook his head helplessly.
However, Maomao just looked at Xia Yaomo with a vigilant look, not letting him get too close to Yan Ruyu. There was nothing else going on, so it was not a big deal.
But Xia invited Mo.
It is indeed very innocent and wronged.
but.
Su Changan rolled his eyes helplessly, not knowing how to complain about the inexplicably complicated relationships in the room.
But at this time, Su Linhan looked at Su Changan and said, "Did big sister give Xun Siye a handwritten note with the words 'Standing alone in heaven and earth, the breeze sprinkles orchids and snow'. There was also a fan pendant."
Su Changan nodded, "Yes, Xun Kuang came to me a few days ago about the matter of [Liao Zhai] and discussed with me about the serialization and publication. At that time, I was making knee pads for your sister-in-law, and I wrote it casually with it. I was thinking about giving fan pendants to grandfather, father and a few of you next summer, so I gave him one, and also included this poem to be written on the fan. What's the matter?"
Su Linhan heard this and immediately said, "Sister, don't you know that Xun Siye is showing off outside? It's so cold, but he's holding a fan and showing off to everyone he meets. I clearly invited him to the banquet table, but he keeps talking about the fan pendant and the poem you gave him."
Su Changan was stunned for a moment: "Ah?"
…
The Queen is returning home today, so there is a banquet, and no one is invited specifically. If you want to come, you can come by yourself. Of course, not everyone can enter the banquet, after all, this is the Su Mansion.
The Su family is now the most powerful family in the entire capital!
And now.
In the Su family's lobby and yard, more than a dozen tables were filled with people. Because of the tent, the brazier, and the drinks, it was not cold.
Moreover, at a glance, the lowest rank is the fifth-rank official position, especially at the top there are people like Mu Xu, Su Wenqing, Li Jiulang, Duke of Qi, Gao Rou, Su Zimu, Prince An and so on.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that half of the high-ranking officials in the imperial court of Daxia have come!
However, inside the yard, Xun Kuang was like that conspicuous bag. It was such a cold day, and even though he had the banquet and food prepared by the Su family to warm him up, who would be like a show-off and hold a fan in the middle of winter?
But Xun Kuang just held a fan, and no one knew whether he was cold or not, but he kept fanning himself. At that moment, Yang Guofu saw Xun Kuang next to him, so out of emotional consideration, he also took the wine glass to toast him.
I didn't expect it.
Xun Kuang looked at Yang Guofu, and snapped open the folding fan in his hand again, and deliberately swung the pendant, and said with joy: "Hey, Lord Yang, how did you know that the queen wrote this poem for me? You are worthy of being the great hero of the fight against gangs and evil! It seems that you are also jealous, but since you asked how it came about, come on, come on, let me tell you what happened."
A look of disgust flashed in Yang Guofu's one eye. Who the hell asked you that?
But it can't really be like this. After all, everyone at the banquet knows that what you, Xun Kuang, is holding is the Queen's thing. Who dares to show disgust?
Even if it's you, Xun Kuang, that I dislike, I can't show it.
This is a matter of course.
Xun Kuang naturally began to talk about the day he got the poem and the fan pendant.
The people around were forced to listen to it again, and they shook their heads helplessly, wondering why the Queen Mother gave this thing to this person!
Your Majesty is confused!
Even Su Wenqing and others who were sitting at the table were shaking their heads when they saw Xun Kuang showing off like crazy.
Instead, Mu Xu stroked his beard and looked at his students with a smile. That's how it should be. How can you not show off when you get good things!
As for Master Yao, Yuan Ruxi and others who were sitting at the table in the Imperial College, they all shook their heads and understood why Xun Kuang didn't say anything when he got anything a few days ago.
It's obvious that he's been waiting for today!
And no surprise
I guess he will show off again on the wedding day of His Majesty and His Majesty!
But seeing Xun Kuang like this, they all lowered their heads in shame, and for some reason they couldn't raise their heads anymore.
Ji Shuying, on the other hand, kept smiling as she looked at Xun Kuang, finding it very interesting.
After Yang Guofu was forced to listen again, the officials sitting at the table did not dare to look at Xun Kuang anymore.
but.
Xun Kuang watched Yang Guofu fan himself twice with satisfaction, and perhaps because he felt a little cold, he covered it up with a dry cough. But the next moment, Xun Siye looked at Yan Jingqing and immediately said, "Master Yan!"
Yan Jingqing almost choked on his food when he heard this.
Xun Kuang said, "Master Yan, I know you didn't ask me, but you must want to hear it, right? Come on, come on, I'll tell you again."
When everyone heard what Xun Kuang said, they shook their heads slightly. It was obvious that it didn’t matter whether you asked or not, I just wanted to show off!
Gao Rou, who now serves as the Minister of State, looked at Mu Xu and said, "Thank goodness Yan Shu is not like that!"
Hearing this, Mu Xu looked at Yan Shu, who was sitting there in a gentle manner. Even though he was the top scholar, he was still very humble. He said with some regret: "Yeah, why doesn't this child have this character?"
Hearing this, everyone at the table looked at Mu Xu, who had a look of regret, and they were immediately speechless.
Prince An was plump and looked very wealthy. He shook his head and said, "I remember that you, Mr. Mu, were the same as Xun Kuang back then. When the late emperor found out, he took the thing back directly."
Upon hearing this, Mu Xu immediately said, "Prince An, don't talk nonsense. It was a loan! The late emperor will return it later."
When it comes to here.
Mu Xu saw a gorgeous woman in white clothes walking on the path in the courtyard. He immediately stood up and bowed, "Welcome, Queen."
Hearing Mu Xu's words.
Everyone was startled and turned to look at the path.
then
Without any hesitation, everyone present stood up, the military officers clasped their fists, the civil officials bowed, and said in unison: "Welcome, Her Majesty the Queen."
Su Changan smiled and said, "No need to be polite."
Everyone stood up and looked at Su Changan's expression.
After confirming that Su Changan's complexion had improved a lot, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Su Changan smiled and said, "I would like to thank you all for coming here today, and thank you all for your concern before. So I came out right now, first to report that I am safe, and second to toast you all."
Xun Xia on the side was holding a tray with warm wine on it. After Su Changan picked it up, he gestured to everyone.
Naturally, everyone picked up their glasses.
Xun Kuang didn't have his own wine glass in front of him, but he had a solution. He poured some into a small bowl and picked it up.
After everyone drank it all.
Su Changan immediately noticed Xun Kuang who was sitting next to Yan Jingqing, so he said directly, "Xun Siye."
Upon hearing this, Xun Kuang immediately placed the bowl in front of Yang Guofu, then took Yang Guofu's wine glass and walked to Su Changan.
Yang Guofu was startled and quickly covered it, but in his heart he began to curse Xun Kuang's ancestors.
"Empress" Xun Kuang bowed respectfully.
Su Changan didn't say anything more, and said with a smile: "Bring it here."
As he said this, he stretched out his hand.
Xun Kuang was stunned for a moment and looked at Su Changan in confusion.
Su Changan smiled and said, "Today, you all gave me face at the banquet, so you came to congratulate me and welcome me back to the Su Mansion. However, the weather is cold, and Xun Siye fanned himself with a fan. If he caught a cold, it would be the fault of our Su family, and even more so my fault. Xun Siye is the director of the Imperial College, and he has a heavy responsibility. How can he be sick? So, I will hold it for you first."
Hearing this
Everyone reacted.
It was obvious that someone couldn't stand it anymore and went to complain to the Queen!
Since the Queen was about to come out, I might as well go back!
but
But what is the reason!
I can have this fan back!
Everyone laughed, and looking at Xun Kuang's face, which changed from boasting just now to looking miserable, they all started to snicker.
"Not giving it to you?" Su Changan looked at Xun Kuang, who was hesitant to speak, with a reluctant expression on his face, and asked with a smile.
When Xun Kuang heard this, how could he not dare to give it?
So he reluctantly put it in Su Changan's palm slowly and respectfully, but looked at Su Changan and said, "My queen, will you give it to me after you are done?"
After Su Changan took the fan, he handed it to Su Wan'er, then looked at Xun Kuang and said, "We'll talk about it when the time comes."
We'll talk about it later.
Okay, we’ll talk about it later!
Let you be proud of yourself!!
When everyone heard what the Queen said, they tried hard to hold back their laughter.
Some people even thought of the sentence: How proud you were just now, and how embarrassed you feel now!
Look at Xun Kuang, isn’t this him?
How could everyone who had just been tortured by Xun Kuang not feel happy at that moment!
Xun Kuang looked at Su Changan with a droopy face, his expression full of pity.
Su Wan'er held back her laughter and secretly glanced at her senior brother.
Su Changan also smiled and didn't say much. After all, he was too arrogant. He just looked at the food and wine on the table.
Good boy
Just one look and Su Changan felt hungry.
but.
He also knew that if he was here, these people would not be able to drink to their heart's content, let alone chat freely, so he sighed and said, "Everyone, at this banquet today, I hope you can put aside all your worries and still have some wine and poetry. Therefore, please drink and eat well."
After saying that, Su Changan bowed slightly and thought about going back. He felt a little regretful, but there was nothing he could do. He couldn't stay here and spoil everyone's fun.
"Farewell, Her Majesty." There was nothing much to say, so everyone could only look at Su Changan's back. However, seeing Su Changan like this, everyone felt relieved.
But at the same time.
Everyone was smart, and they knew that the Queen came here to report her safety and to toast. Her health must be not good, otherwise, given the Queen's attitude towards eating delicious food, would they not stay to have a few bites?
and
Everyone also wanted to watch the Queen eat.
So I feel regretful, but at the same time I am grateful. After all, he managed to get through it despite being sick. How can I not be grateful!
but
Su Changan turned around and left.
But Su Wan'er, holding a fan, ran towards Su Wenqing and the others. After bowing to everyone at the table, Su Wan'er handed the paper to Su Wenqing and whispered, "Grandpa, this is from my elder sister. I can't let her ruin the poem after returning home. But my elder sister is probably not in good health and can't stay outside for long, so I asked me to pass it to you."
After saying that, Su Wan'er bowed again to everyone at the table and went after Su Changan.
Su Wenqing was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and opened the paper in his hand.
Mu Xu was sitting next to Su Wenqing, so he naturally came over to take a look. When he saw this, he subconsciously said, "It's not bad, Madam."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked at Mu Xu.
What’s going on?
…
P.S.: I was delayed by something, so the update is late, sorry.
