into the bosom

Chapter 320
The person who came was Yaya's maid, who seemed to be called Alima.

"There's no need to be too polite." Xu Jiaoyang laughed, "But what's the matter with the princess, Princess Pongya?"

"The princess sent a servant girl to post a message to Princess Yingyue. Our princess will hold a banquet in the lotus garden in the west of the city in the future. After that, we will leave for Beijie. The princess will meet you once, and I hope you Must come."

Xu Jiao smiled and asked Negative Xue to take over the post, but she was noncommittal.

After Alima left in the carriage, the smile on Xu Jiao's face faded, and he took the post from Neg Xue's hand and opened it to read. He raised his eyes to look at the carriage going away, and said in a low voice, "Who did you invite?"

"Yes." Negative Xue replied, then turned around and left.

After a while, he came back and said to Xu Jiao, "As long as the high-ranking officials and dignitaries in Feng'an City have met face to face on weekdays, most of them have received posts. Someone Dawei knows."

Xu Jiao lowered his eyes, and lightly circled the post at hand with his finger, "Go and prepare the dress and jewelry for the banquet!"

It seems that autumn is coming, but the weather shows no signs of cooling down. It is still very hot every day, and it will not be better until nightfall.

The clothes are all ready-made, but they are just chosen from among them.This was Xu Jiao's first time attending a banquet after marrying He Lianshu, so naturally she had to be more cautious.After picking out several dresses, I reluctantly made a decision, and compared them to choose the matching jewelry.

On the day I have to go to the banquet, I wash up and dress up.

Negative snow's dexterous hands have also been practiced now, combed Xu Jiao's unique hair bun, and then inserted all the jewelry into her raven hair, "madam, is it okay?"

Xu Jiao looked into the bronze mirror and saw a distorted figure. She couldn't help but frowned and sighed, "I don't see it clearly either, just look at it!" After so long, she still wasn't used to it. bronze mirror.

Xu Jiao stood up, looked down at the skirt on her body, "Is this color too plain?"

Just as she was about to answer, out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of a figure approaching the door, she stopped, bowed her knees to the person who came, and walked away silently.

"Lengxue?" Xu Jiao called out without hearing the answer from Lingxue, and was about to raise her head.

There was a tightness around the waist, and a pair of hands stretched out behind her, pulling her into his arms and hugging her tightly.A familiar breath spewed out from the pinnae, and immediately after that, a familiar cold voice rang out, "It looks good! My Ajiao looks good in anything she wears!"

Xu Jiao raised his hand and patted the hand on his waist, "Scare me! Why did you come back suddenly?"

"The matter has come to an end for the time being. I haven't seen Ajiao for a long time, and I feel like returning home." The voice was still calm and cold, but it was full of love words.

Xu Jiao pursed the corners of his mouth and smiled silently, there was probably only one Helian Shu in this world, who could speak his love words as if he was wrapped in ice.It's also thanks to her understanding of him, otherwise, I'm afraid I won't feel the slightest bit of affection, and will be full of fear.

"Are you dressed like this, are you going to the Lotus Garden for a banquet?" He Lianshu hugged her for a while, then gently pushed her away, turned around, looked her up and down, and asked softly.

Xu Jiao nodded her head and gave a soft "hmm", not the slightest surprise that he already knew about this matter.

"Let them bring me some clothes, wait for me for a while, I'll pack up and go with you."

"Are you going too?" Xu Jiao was slightly taken aback.

He Lianshu looked at her and slightly raised the corner of his mouth, "Isn't it good to be with you?"

The two looked at each other without saying much, and there was a self-evident darkness in the eyes of both of them.

The Lotus Garden is a manor specially repaired by a wealthy family in the western suburbs of Feng'an - a courtyard in the Four Seasons Villa.This four-season villa is exclusively for dignitaries and dignitaries to play and entertain.Because it is on the outskirts of the city, it occupies a very large area. This rich man spent a lot of money to build it. There is a polo field and ice games in winter.Not to mention the scenery in the middle, which is not much different from the Royal Garden. It has the characteristics of the south of the Yangtze River, elegant and fresh.The name of the villa is Four Seasons. It is divided into four courtyards, and there are scenery to enjoy in all four seasons, and only one courtyard is opened in each season.

This kind of behavior is full of gimmicks, and it makes these high-ranking officials and dignitaries who were born in the splendor since childhood feel full of freshness.Therefore, the Four Seasons Villa has just been opened for less than a year, but it is also popular in Feng'an, and it is very popular.

It's just that these days, because of the disaster and the refugees, it's a little deserted.

Xu Jiao still turned her head back, when she and He Lianshu arrived, there were already many people in the lotus garden.This lotus garden is called the lotus garden, and there is a lake in it, with vast expanses of blue waves, and various lotus flowers are planted in the lake. Now it is late summer, but there are still open lotus leaves, and the breeze is blowing. As soon as you enter the door, you feel a coolness that is not available in the city. It really is a good place to escape the heat.

He Lianshu and Xu Jiao, the newlyweds, came hand in hand and attracted everyone's attention as soon as they arrived.

This is Xu Jiao going back to the banquet after getting married. She changed into a woman's attire. Today she is wearing an extremely elegant skirt with a light blue upper body and a chest-length white gauze skirt. The ink color is smudged with a few lotus plants. When the wind blows and the skirt flutters, those few lotus plants seem to dance with it, swaying the scent of lotus.

And the man next to her is tall and hidden, a black robe makes his figure straight, and his gestures are full of coercion. I have never seen a man who can wear black so outstandingly, so outstanding that it is suffocating. .This man just appeared, with a wordless power, the temperature of the whole lotus garden suddenly dropped a lot by his own power, but fortunately he didn't raise his eyes to look over, otherwise, if he met his eyes, he might not be able to say goodbye It's going to be winter soon.

His eyes only fell on the woman beside him, and the woman looked more and more delicate when she was beside him.And because of the woman beside him, this living Hades, who is said to be bloodthirsty and cruel, doesn't look so scary anymore.

The silence around was too obvious, even if Xu Jiao pretended not to notice it.Glancing around, she silently sighed twice in her heart, then raised her head and whispered to the man next to her, "This place is full of female relatives, it's inconvenient for you to stay here, you'd better go yourself!"

"Then be careful in everything. I'll pick you up when you leave later." He Lianshu said indifferently, raised his eyes and swept across the crowd, and with just that sweep, everyone couldn't help but tense their backs, and they were even more silent in all directions.

He Lianshu withdrew his gaze, exchanged a glance with Xu Jiao, then turned around and walked away.

Looking at his back, Xu Jiao let out a long sigh of relief. If he didn't leave, Xu Jiao was worried that someone would be scared and cry.

Seeing her walking away, Xu Jiaoyang smiled sweetly, turned around, and walked into the crowd.

"Princess Yingyue Princess, your dress today is so unique!" Someone in the crowd finally woke up and praised with a slightly stiff tone.

"Yes! Princess, the ink lotus on this skirt is very suitable for the occasion. It looks like a new painting. Could it be from the princess's pen?"

Xu Jiao lowered her eyes and smiled lightly, but she acquiesced.

"Let me just say, no wonder the painting is so brilliant, the lotus seems to be alive, it turned out to be the princess's handwriting, that's no wonder!"

A group of people gathered around Xu Jiao, and they said everything they said was full of praise. The person in front of them, they absolutely dare not offend.

They have many backers and are hard, and they can't afford to offend them, so they can only hold them.

Xu Jiao was a little tired of dealing with such a crowd of stars, her face was almost frozen from laughter, but fortunately someone came to rescue her.

"Princess Yingyue Princess!" It was Alima who came to deliver the post that day.

Seeing her at this time, Xu Jiao was very happy in her heart.

Sure enough, after Alima stopped saluting with her, she said, "Princess Yingyue, my princess welcomes you!" Then she smiled apologetically at the female relatives around Xu Jiao.

Xu Jiao raised his eyes and looked behind her.

Not far from the lake, there is a water pavilion, half hidden among the reeds, with only one side sticking out of the water.There was a beautiful woman in red dress looking over here from a distance, it was the host of today's banquet, the Princess Pong Ya.

She is not wearing a colorful dress today, but a red dress that is as bright as a flame, which is the most dazzling one even in this group of young people competing for beauty.

If Xu Jiao is a beautiful lotus today, then Gaoya is a delicate peony, no!Perhaps such a flamboyant but enthusiastic appearance should be the legendary Zanthoxylum japonica, which is as bright as fire in the desert and as precious as gems.

"I'm sorry, everyone! Excuse me first!" The host invited, Xu Jiao bowed, followed Alima, and went to the water pavilion.

Among the waterside pavilions, gauzes were flying, and Ya Ya in a red dress was leaning lazily on a pillar, staring at the lake with a distant expression.

Xu Jiao looked at her back, with a slight frown between his brows.

"Princess, the maidservant has invited Princess Yingyue here." Alima bowed to Guya and said in Jie tribe dialect.

Genya finally turned around and raised her hand towards Xu Jiao, "Princess Yingyue, please come in quickly!"

Facing the moon, she pulled her skirt back and walked in, bowed to Guya, "Princess Guya!"

"Sit down!" Genya walked away from the water's edge, walked to the square stone table in the middle of the water pavilion and sat down, raised her hand to the empty seat opposite.

Xu Jiao also followed Shan Ruliu and sat down.

Alima stepped forward and poured a pot of herbal tea for Xu Jiao, but Ben Ya looked up at her displeasedly and said, "You wait outside the water pavilion, I will talk to Princess Yingyue for a while."

Alima was slightly startled, seemed to hesitate, paused for two breaths, and then answered "Yes", turned and walked outside the waterside pavilion.

From the corner of Xu Jiao's eyes, he glanced at Alima's back, and then looked at Tiaoya in front of him, frowning slightly imperceptibly.

Tengya didn't even look at her, she was holding a cup of herbal tea and was thinking about something, her eyes were a little erratic.

Today's Guya is a little different from what she used to see.The crease between Xu Jiao's eyebrows deepened by two points because of doubts in his heart.

Perhaps her gaze was too much, Teng Ya finally raised her eyelids and took a look at her, but a sneering smile appeared on the corner of her mouth and said, "I thought Princess Yingyue was an upright and free-spirited person who lived a wanton life, But I didn't expect to be double-decker, obviously I don't like it, and I have to force a smile to deal with it, it's extremely hypocritical."

These words were not polite at all. After Xu Jiao heard this, he was not angry, and instead smiled back, "People live in this world, and there are too many things that they don't want to do but have to do. How many people are really free and easy?" A? What's more, you and I are already in a place where power and wealth are overwhelming, and there are many things that we have to do. I think the princess of Gongya should be more clear than me."

"There is something in your little words! I don't understand." Teng Ya snorted, her tone was not good.

But Xu Jiao didn't look angry, just picked up the tea bowl and took a sip.

Tengya on the opposite side didn't drink tea, but dipped her fingers in the tea to wet them, and the wet fingertips landed on the table next to her instead.

Xu Jiao's eyes flickered slightly, and he asked with a smile, "Princess Guya has decided to return to Beijie? I don't know when to leave?"

"After today, you can do it at any time." Gu Yaman replied, "What? You wish I could leave earlier? It seems that you are not as confident as you show!"

The deep meaning in these words, they both understand each other.

Xu Jiao snorted, and glanced behind her from the corner of her eye. A few steps away, separated by a light veil, Alima stood with her arms folded, separated by her back, obstructed by her sight, Alima couldn't see the lying in front of her. Ya, but can hear their conversation clearly.

"Princess Ruoya has studied Sinology since she was a child, so she must have heard a saying from our Central Plains." The smile in Xu Jiao's voice faded, "Sometimes you must have something in your life, and there is no time in your life, so don't force it."

"It's too early to say whether there is any fear in fate! Fate is a mysterious thing. What you think you have can be lost in a blink of an eye. And what you thought you had lost, under a certain opportunity , the twists and turns, it can’t be said that it is lost and regained, because of the unpredictable, life is life, don’t you think so? Princess Yingyue Princess?” On the contrary, there was a hint of laughter in the prostrate tone, with a faint smile provocative meaning.

"Princess Guya!" The smile in Xu Jiao's tone has completely disappeared, "I thought you invited me to the banquet today because you and I have known each other for a while, but I didn't expect that Am I thinking wrong?"

"That depends on what Princess Yingyue thinks." Genya smiled lazily and raised her hands, and picked up the bowl of herbal tea at hand, but she didn't drink it. Looking at Xu Jiao, her red lips curved slightly.

Xu Jiao's voice sank, "Princess Guya, I remember I reminded you a long time ago. If others covet my man, I will not be polite. Please respect yourself."

"Your man?" Genya snorted, tilted her hand, and the herbal tea in the bowl poured out, landed on the table in front of her, and then flowed down the table, splashing directly on her. On the red dress, there was a dark mark, "Then keep it! You have to keep it."

This manly smile was even more provocative.

"You..." Xu Jiao gritted his teeth, he couldn't bear it anymore.

Tengya didn't wait for her to get angry, so she put the empty cup back on the table, Shi Shiran stood up and said, "It's boring, ah, it also stained my dress, and I have to see guests later. Yingyue County Lord, I have to go change my clothes, excuse me, and leave."
