Chapter 483: Outing in the Suburbs of Beijing
Similarly, those young ladies from aristocratic families surrounded the princess and the princess and talked and laughed happily.
But out of the corner of their eyes, they all glanced at the heroic and flamboyant First Prince and the cold and handsome Fourth Prince.
Yan Xingchuan, who was being secretly stared at by many eyes, was completely "forced to work" at this moment.
He didn't want to come to such a meaningless party.
Instead of pretending to be nice to these young men from aristocratic families with different thoughts, it is better to stay in the study and read a few pages of a book or play a game of chess.
However, his elder brother "dug" him out of the study early in the morning and asked him to go out for a walk while the day was still bright.
Another thing is to help Miaomiao find a prince consort.
Yan Xingchuan's expression was originally unmoved by Zhong, but it relaxed slightly when he heard "find a prince consort for the imperial sister".
He remembered the "I've figured it out" remarks he heard outside Changning Palace the day before.
I feel a little relieved, but I am still worried.
After a moment of silence, he finally nodded.
That's why he was standing here at this moment, enduring those vague gazes.
The atmosphere in the villa soon became lively under the leadership of Yan Xingyi.
The children of the aristocratic families would either recite poems and write couplets, or play tossing pots and shooting arrows, or go to the garden together to enjoy the scenery.
Everyone is trying their best to show their talent and demeanor.
The young ladies were mostly admiring flowers, drinking tea, and chatting softly, with various graceful manners.
Among them, Lu Yian, the third son of Yongding Marquis, had practiced martial arts and played with the eldest prince since childhood.
The so-called proximity to water is the most bold and direct expression.
He has a lively personality, is quick-witted and can please others.
After a while, he took out a new peach as if by magic and presented it to Miaomiao;
After a while, he talked about interesting stories in Beijing...
In short, he was always by Miaomiao's side, always at her beck and call, and was very considerate to her.
Miaomiao was so amused that her eyebrows and eyes were curved, and her teeth were showing but her eyes were not.
Yan Xingyi watched from the side and secretly cursed his drinking buddy.
His academic performance in literature and martial arts is average, but he is very good at pleasing girls!
Look at how attentive he is, don’t try to trick your innocent and gullible precious sister into going away!
The more he thought about it, the more unreliable it seemed, so he started to make jokes.
From time to time, he would send Lu Yian away or deliberately interrupt him.
At the same time, Yan Xingyi did not forget his "mission" today.
His eyes scanned the crowd and soon locked onto the "number one reserve" - Su Dabao!
Eight years ago, Xiyu was completely incorporated into the territory of Dayan.
Su Muyang, Marquis of Yuanpingnan, was personally conferred the title of Duke of Anguo by His Majesty and married Hua Lan.
At the same time, the women in the backyard were dismissed and new husbands were chosen for them.
He also registered his ten sons under the name of Anguogong's wife Hua Lan, and all of them were legitimate sons.
At the same time, the couple requested that their eldest son Su Dabao, Su Yuchen, be given the title of Crown Prince.
Su Yuchen is not yet fourteen years old this year, but he has grown taller, has a handsome face, and his future charm can be seen between his eyebrows.
What is even more rare is that he is both talented in civil and military affairs, and has a calm and sensible temperament.
The more Yan Xingyi looked at her, the more satisfied he became. He then forced Su Yuchen to talk and interact with Miaomiao more.
However, Su Yuchen's mind was obviously not here.
His eyes always involuntarily drifted towards the figure as bright and dazzling as a flame.
Zhao Zhao was riding horses and laughing with others, competing in archery.
The young man's heart was filled with passion. He studied hard and practiced martial arts, hoping that one day he would grow up to be a match for such a dazzling woman.
At this moment, he was forced by the eldest prince to accompany Sister Miaomiao. He felt helpless, but he couldn't disobey.
His thoughts had been teased by several brothers before.
The young man was shy and when asked urgently, he would retort without thinking.
He said that he likes girls with gentle personalities like Sister Miaomiao, and that if he wants to get married when he grows up, he wants to marry a girl like her.
These words were originally meant to conceal his excitement for Zhao Zhao.
Unexpectedly, the eldest prince took it seriously and came to mediate.
Miaomiao knew what Su Yuchen was thinking.
Seeing him being forcibly dragged here by his brother, looking absent-minded and at a loss, I felt both funny and sympathetic.
She took the initiative to move closer and lower her voice.
Bumping heads with Su Yuchen.
Muttering about what good horse Zhao Zhao had found recently;
What new whip did you get?
I like to play some new things recently.
They grew up together and had no taboos with each other, so they seemed naturally close when they talked in private.
But this look of their heads pressed together and their intimate understanding is interpreted differently by others.
Yan Xingyi saw it with joy, and nodded repeatedly, feeling that this "backup" plan had great potential.
Lu Yian looked anxious and scratched his head.
I was afraid that Young Master Su would be so close to me that he could steal Sister Miaomiao's heart first.
Seeing this, other young masters from aristocratic families were unwilling to be left behind and they all found the right opportunity to come forward.
They may demonstrate their talents, ask about others' well-being, or present carefully prepared small gifts.
Miaomiao has a gentle personality and always speaks softly and is gentle and lovely when dealing with people.
Although he was not moved by everyone's hospitality, he still maintained his good manners and responded gently to each of them.
This is a harmonious scene with the stars surrounding the moon and the beautiful woman smiling.
But in the eyes of the two people who had just arrived, the meaning suddenly changed.
Crown Prince Yan Xingtian finished his studies early today, so he decided to come to the villa outside the capital to check on his sister.
He casually asked Cui Huailin, "Do you want to go to the horse racing at the villa outside the capital?"
Cui Huailin had been sorting out his books with his eyes lowered, but he did not stop when he heard the words, and his tone was calm.
"I still have some books to review, so I won't go."
Yan Xingtian glanced at him, but did not force him, and left with his guards.
However, not long after his carriage left the palace gate, Cui Huailin rode his horse at full speed to catch up with him.
He said he was going to visit a distant relative in the suburbs of Beijing, so he went with him.
Yan Xingtian looked at his friend deeply.
Cui Huailin remained calm.
Only he himself knew in the deepest part of his heart that distant relatives were just excuses.
He just... wanted to confirm it with his own eyes.
After that day, although I heard that her condition had improved, I didn’t know if she was really well again.
But he never expected that he would have to ride at full speed to the villa outside Beijing.
What I saw was not the haggard and quiet early stage of recovery that I had imagined, but rather a scene of laughter and noise, surrounded by stars.
The girl who cried heart-wrenchingly for him and fell ill in bed a few days ago.
At this moment, she is surrounded by many men, smiling sweetly and looking at them with beautiful eyes, accepting their praise and courtesy.
Looks...very happy.
Cui Huailin pulled the reins and sat upright on the horse's back.
His hands unconsciously clenched under his sleeves, squeezing until his knuckles turned white and veins became visible.
After a moment, he seemed to realize something and suddenly let go.
But then, that inexplicable feeling of suffocation came over him again, causing him to clench his fists once again.
This happened several times, and his handsome but cold face remained calm and composed.
It was as if everything before him had nothing to do with him.
This is what he wanted, isn't it?
Let her let go of her unrealistic obsession with herself and choose a prince consort who is suitable for her, suitable for the royal family, and can bring her more ease and happiness.
From now on, the bridges return to the bridges, the roads return to the roads, everyone is well and everyone is happy.
This is the most rational and correct ending.
But... why does my heart feel like something is pulling at it, making it so bitter and astringent?
This strange and uncontrollable feeling made him confused and resistant.
He forced himself to blame it all on——
After all, I watched the girl grow up, and now I see that she is about to belong to another man.
It is natural to feel a little uncomfortable and emotional.
That's all.
He took a deep breath and suppressed all the strange feelings surging in his heart.
His eyes shifted away from Miaomiao and looked at the mountains in the distance.
Trying to let the greenery cool down my somewhat confused mood.
