Chapter 631: Can you read minds?
Song Qingyan, who was talking to Duan Yunyi at this time, fell silent immediately and looked over when she heard the three words "mind reading".
Could it be that besides myself, Pei Chuyan can also do it?
He mobilized his inner strength to allow himself to hear their conversation.
The next moment, Pei Chuyan really spoke: "Princess, I don't know how to read minds."
When Lu Xingwan heard this, he stood up suddenly and almost spilled the wine on himself. If Jinxin hadn't been waiting beside him, he would have...
"Can you hear what I'm thinking?" Lu Xingwan pointed angrily at Pei Chuyan in front of him, not caring at all about the overturned cups beside him.
[Then I will curse you in my heart now. ]
【Curse you for being a big fool! 】
【I'm scolding you for being so lenient towards women. 】
【Swear at you...】
It was rare for Pei Chuyan to see the princess so serious, so he wanted to tease her.
He smiled and walked forward to take a look, then continued to speak to Lu Xingwan who was standing in front of him: "Princess, are you scolding me now?"
"You..." Lu Xingwan really believed it this time.
I was speechless for a moment.
At this time, Jin Xin stepped forward and looked at the princess and Pei Chuyan in front of her with a smile: "Prince Pei, please stop joking with the princess."
Then he held the little princess in his arms and comforted her: "Princess, how can there be such a thing as mind reading in this world?"
"This Prince Pei is not an immortal."
However, Lu Xingwan disagreed. She thought that she was from the world of immortals and if she could travel into the storybook, then what else could she not do?
At this time, Song Qingyan didn't hear what Duan Yunyi was saying to her. She just looked in the direction of Lu Xingwan with deep eyes, her eyes full of anxiety.
I was afraid that Wanwan would really find out.
She doesn’t know whether Prince Pei has the ability to read minds, but she does!
You'll be angry every night, right?
Seeing that the princess was really anxious, Pei Chuyan chuckled and finally explained: "Just now I just saw the princess looking around and then glanced at the queen, so I guessed that the princess was looking for Dingguohou's family."
"And the princess suspects that I can read minds, so she will definitely curse me in her heart to verify it, right?"
"Really?" Lu Xingwan looked at Pei Chuyan in front of him with suspicion.
Seeing her like this, Pei Chuyan's smile widened, but he didn't dare to provoke her anymore. He smiled and nodded solemnly: "It's true."
"I swear!"
"Hey," Lu Xingwan quickly spoke up to stop him, "Okay, I believe you."
oath.
You mortals love to swear, and you swear the most terrible oaths.
Forget it.
I believe it.
"Are you really going back to Dingguo Marquis' Mansion?" Lu Xingwan thought of what happened just now and looked at Pei Chuyan with surprise on her face, "I thought mother was just talking casually."
After hearing what they said, Song Qingyan breathed a sigh of relief.
[But speaking of it, it seems that my grandfather's family doesn't like to attend this kind of palace banquet. ]
[Well, I have read many novels, and I know that this kind of palace banquet is probably a blind date banquet prepared for various young men and women.]
【Grandpa and grandma came, but they just said some flattering words to others. 】
[Fortunately, my father is now understanding and can actually agree that my grandfather won't come.]
Lu Xingwan muttered to herself as she came back to her senses from questioning Pei Chuyan just now, then turned to look at Jin Xin on the other side.
But suddenly, I saw Shen Ping from another angle.
Lu Xingwan paused, then tried to move forward, and it was indeed Shen Ping.
Shen Ping at this time was different from the man Lu Xingwan met in the mountains last time.
The last time I saw him, he was working in the fields. Although he exuded a temperament that was different from that of ordinary farmers, he still appeared simple and friendly overall.
After all, Shen Ping is now the top scholar and an official in the capital, so under the influence of these occasions and atmosphere, he has become more heroic, and his temperament is more stable and confident than before.
Lu Xingwan just looked at Shen Ping in front of him and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
[It seems that the officialdom can indeed change and shape people. Shen Ping has also undergone such a big change without realizing it.]
[I just don't know if Shen Ping can keep his original intention? ]
[I don't know if this time, Mr. Rong's matter has anything to do with him. 】
When she was in Taijin County before, Lu Xingwan had never met Shen Ping's mother, but she knew that she was not living well at that time.
But now seeing her in gorgeous clothes, she looks even more elegant.
It seems that Shen Ping's mother is indeed not an ordinary person.
At the very least, it's more than just being a peasant woman.
The way she now chats and laughs happily with the ladies, it's obvious that she is the daughter of a wealthy family.
It seems that Jinxin's guess just now was almost right. This Shen's mother is most likely Shen Yuyuan's sister.
[In that case, Shen Baoshuang is Shen Ping's cousin.]
Lu Xingwan held his breath, concentrated, and used his spiritual power to listen to what Shen Ping's mother was saying.
Sure enough, just like in the usual stories, she was looking for a marriage for her son!
Although Shen Ping's father's background was unknown, others just thought he was just a country boy.
Maybe dead.
Maybe he was sent away by the Shen family.
Anyway, now that Shen's mother has returned to Beijing, how could the Shen family allow a country boy to be the husband of the former eldest daughter of the Shen family?
Just give me some money and that's it.
Of course, among these ladies, there were some who knew Shen's mother in the past, and they also took advantage of this relationship to approach her and talk to her.
One reason is that Shen Ping is now the top scholar and is highly regarded by His Majesty.
The second reason is that Shen Ping has some connection with the Shen family after all.
Lord Shen now holds the position of Minister of Personnel and is highly valued by His Majesty.
Moreover, because of the previous case of "selling official positions and titles", Lord Shen has gained the trust of His Majesty. Even if the prince ascends the throne in the future, Lord Shen will definitely not be affected.
Moreover, Lord Shen's eldest daughter married the only son of the general of the cavalry.
The general of the cavalry is the prince's father-in-law.
With these layers of relationships, Shen Ping and his mother naturally also rose along with the tide.
Naturally, there were also many ladies who regretted that the second young lady of the Shen family had not come to the palace banquet. If she had come, they would have definitely stepped forward to speak for their sons.
Although Shen Baoshuang used to be a domineering person in the capital, she somehow became friends with the Imperial Concubine and became a different person.
All in all it's a good one.
[In ancient times, marriages were mostly just exchanges of interests.]
[Now, it seems that Shen Ping has become a means for his mother to exchange interests. ]
[I just don’t know what Shen Ping is thinking? ]
[As for the matter with Lord Rong, how much does he know? ]
