Concubine Sheng Chong

Chapter 71
"Second brother, have you really thought about it? You know that Miss Li treats you..."

Fang Licheng's voice was a little low.

He paused, that's right, what position does he use to say this?If you don't want to marry, why don't you stop her from marrying?
It's just that he couldn't figure out what his second brother was thinking.

"No intentions for me? Brother, you know, I have never regretted what I did. Besides, I spent a night with her on Qixia Mountain. Women's reputation is the most important thing. She gave me her innocence. Shouldn't you marry me? "

After Fang Lijin finished speaking, he chuckled lightly, raised his hand to straighten the crimson brocade shirt with dark purple patterns on his body, and the crimson new clothes were festive.

"Second brother! Marriage matters can be so hasty! What on earth are you thinking? It's better to figure it out early!"

Ever since Fang Lijin got involved with Xu Junyan, Fang Licheng felt that he couldn't see through this second brother more and more.

"How does elder brother know that I have no intentions for her? Just take it as my heart is pleasing to her, and now my wish has been fulfilled. Today is a good day for me. Eldest brother still wants me to retire?"

"You...have kneeled in the ancestral hall for two days and still don't understand?"

"Could it be... Eldest Brother has changed his mind about Miss Li..."

Fang Licheng's complexion suddenly darkened due to Fang Lijin's utterly unscrupulous teasing tone.

"Second brother! This is a lifelong event, how can it be a joke?! You should think about it."

Fang Lijin brushed off his sleeves, with a smile on his handsome face and undiminished joy, he followed Fang Licheng to the front yard.

"ah……"

Seeing the person walking away, Jiang Jinyan covered his mouth with his hands and came out from behind the banana tree. So there is such a thing!

No wonder the engagement was rushed this time, it seemed that it was not just to avoid the matter of choosing a concubine, but also to cover up the matter between the two of them...

I was absolutely not mistaken, Li Qianyun's affection for Fang Licheng has not changed in two lifetimes, so what is the relationship between Fang Lijin and her?
What kind of person is this Fang Lijin...

Standing beside Jiang Jinyan, Xue Yan also listened to the general idea, then said in a low voice, "Miss! This..."

Jiang Jinyan shook his head slightly, it's better to put this matter aside for now.

She turned back and said seriously: "This matter must not be publicized, and it has nothing to do with us, just pretend that we don't know about it."

Seeing her young lady's serious face, Xueyan covered her mouth and nodded vigorously.

How can this matter be made public, unless you don't want to live a good life.

"Miss Cousin, the old lady asked the servant to bring some snacks. I never thought you were here." A maidservant with a handsome face and unusual clothes found the pavilion with a saving box in her hand.

"Please trouble Sister Ganlu."

Jiang Jinyan naturally recognized that this was Ganlu, the big maid beside Mrs. Fang.

Ganlu is serving the old lady, so she naturally has an extraordinary face. To be such a big sister, even Li Shi has to give her some face.

"Where is it, if Miss Biao didn't bring filial piety, how could the old lady be willing to avoid Miss Biao at the table?"

After she finished speaking, she smiled and placed several plates of dim sum on the stone table, including jade bean cakes, chestnut cakes, two-color bean cakes and red bean paste rolls, all of which were extremely delicate.

At this moment, at the corner of the corridor diagonally opposite to the lotus pond, there was a man in a royal blue brocade shirt with dark purple patterns standing quietly.

His handsome face was full of astonishment, his peach eyes were slightly narrowed, and his gaze stayed on a simple shadow in the opposite pavilion.

The blue water of the pool beside the pavilion is rippling, and the remnant lotus stands in the forest, which makes the jade-like face look elegant and dusty, and the surrounding scenery is not as beautiful as her faint smile.

The plain clothes could not suppress her color at all, and her face was even more beautiful, attracting attention.

What is a beautiful woman, only the temperament that is naturally carved is as gentle as orchid.

He sees too many beauties. Apart from a good appearance, a truly attractive woman must have a certain charm.

"The Fang family still has such a beautiful woman..." He said in a low voice, the surprise in his tone was beyond words.

"My lord hasn't returned to the table yet, but you feel unwell?"

Fang Licheng saw that he hadn't returned for a long time, so when he found this place, he actually saw him standing at the corner of the verandah without moving for a long time.

Both grandfather and father were silent for a long time when they heard that King Duan was coming, but Li Qianyun has a cousin relationship with King Duan after all, so it is understandable for him to use this as an excuse.

But in the end, he was an idle prince who was not favored by the former emperor, and now he is weak and sick, so there is nothing to be taboo about.

Fang Licheng thought about it secretly.

He looked up and looked at the direction where King Duan had been waiting for a long time. A figure came into his eyes, and his eyes suddenly lit up. The person in the pavilion turned out to be Jiang Jinyan.

"It's okay, this king is just a little breathless." Zhou Chengrui smiled and shook his head, waving his hands to signal to go back to the table.

Then he walked to the front yard.

Fang Licheng frowned slightly when he thought that his gaze had been fixed on the person opposite the lotus pond for a long time.

Back in the front yard, Zhou Chengrui stopped when he saw Xu Junyan coming from afar.

oh?Unexpectedly, he still had contacts with the Fang family. It seems that Wang Zhao did not manage to separate him from the Fang family this time.

"I didn't expect General Xu to come to Fang's house to sit at the table just after he came back from Jiangnan."

Zhou Chengrui walked forward with his usual easy-going smile.

"When Xu returned to Luoyang, he heard that the prince was ill and had been bedridden for many days. He never expected to see the prince in the general's mansion."

Xu Junyan's tone was extremely flat, but Zhou Chengrui clearly understood the meaning behind his words.

Sick and bedridden for days...

If you say that you are still in poor health, then you have come to Fang's house to find bad luck. If you say that you are well, then it is worth studying after staying behind closed doors for many days.

After thinking about it for a moment, he suppressed his displeasure and smiled: "This king has also been recovering from illness for many days, and this body just happened to be in time for the happy event of the second young master. Qian Yun is also my cousin, so it is natural for this king to come, but General Xu Qianli Coming back from Jiangnan all the way, I didn't expect Li Jin to have such a big face."

Fang Lijin heard the movement outside the hall, stepped out of the hall quickly, and smiled at Xu Junyan: "The banquet has been held for a long time, General Xu is here."

Xu Junyan smiled lightly: "I have been delayed for some time for trivial matters in the army."

Fang Lijin naturally knew that Xu Junyan was busy with the Xuanwu camp recently, and the two of them entered the hall after a few words.

After sitting at the table, Zhou Chengrui smiled at Fang Lijin, "Has Lijin been to Li's Mansion today?"

Fang Lijin looked at the easy-going Zhou Chengrui, and his face became even more joyful, "I went there early in the morning, thank you for your concern, my lord."

Zhou Chengrui waved his hands and said, "You married my cousin, so you are my cousin's husband. Why are you polite?"

Zhou Chengrui has a gentle face, and his smile is even more approachable.

Fang Lijin smiled sincerely, his brows and eyes filled with the joy of life.

Fang Licheng, who was on the side, paused holding the cup when he saw this scene. If he hadn't known in his heart that his younger brother had no relationship with King Duan, and had no intention of showing Li Qianyun, he might have been a brother and friend. Scenes.

After all, the engagement banquet ended happily. After a day of drinking at Fang's house, the next one will be a month later at Dudu Li's mansion.

Zhou Chengrui sipped the wine in his glass, and suddenly thought of the beauty in the backyard of the Fang family, and his thoughts drifted to the lotus pond in the garden.

"My lord heard that Qiu Ju from Fang Mansion is unique in Luoyang City. I wonder if I have the good fortune to see it today."

Fang Lijin's wine was getting stronger, his face was a little red, he smiled and said: "My lord has good eyesight, we still have a lot of autumn chrysanthemums brought in from Youzhou in our house, it's really better to go for a walk in the garden to relieve the hangover. "

As he spoke, he glanced at Xu Junyan who was calm and said: "General Xu, I know you are very interested in Zizhu, and the Zizhu forest in our mansion is also good, why don't we go for a walk together?"

Xu Junyan heard Zizhu of the Fang family's complexion softened, and said with a faint smile: "Then respect is worse than obedience."

Fang Licheng was surprised that Xu Junyan, who was always a little cold, was so easy-going?
After wandering around the yard for a long time, Jiang Jinyan counted the time and said, "Brother Cheng should wake up by now."

Xueyan smiled and said: "The little ancestor woke up and couldn't see the young lady, he should be crying around the nurse again."

As they spoke, the two walked towards the old lady's yard, but unexpectedly they saw a group of people headed by Zhou Chengrui just after turning a corridor.

Is it him? !
Seeing Zhou Chengrui walking slowly, elegantly and with an extraordinary bearing, Jiang Jinyan's eyes turned cold for an instant, but he froze in place after a pause, with hatred surging in his heart.

He still had that handsome and gentle appearance. When I first saw him in my previous life, my heart throbbed endlessly, and I really thought that he would only be so gentle to me.

But that one, that one is just a superficially attractive poison!

It's ridiculous!I really think that Sansheng is lucky to have such a good son-in-law, but in the end?

He became famous and reached the sky in one step, and he changed from a stepping stone to an existence that he regarded as nothing!
I only hate myself for not knowing people clearly!

Xueyan noticed the sudden trembling of her own lady, and was so frightened that she was at a loss, and exclaimed: "Miss! What's wrong with you?!"

This sound recalled Jiang Jinyan's thoughts, and also attracted Zhou Chengrui's attention.

"It's okay, maybe I'm tired."

After speaking, Jiang Jinyan saw that the whole group was looking at her, and she couldn't avoid it at this moment, so she had to slowly walk forward and salute.

Seeing Jiang Jinyan, Fang Licheng had no choice but to introduce: "My lord, this is the cousin of our family."

After speaking, Fang Licheng slowed down his tone and said to Jiang Jin: "Cousin, this is His Royal Highness Duan Wang."

She has always been timid, and she will probably panic when she sees the rich and powerful.

Jiang Jinyan glanced at Fang Licheng and Fang Lijin at the side, and settled down.

"My daughter has seen the prince."

She was indeed at a loss for a moment, but after concentrating, she lowered her head and curtseyed in a regular manner, so upright that she couldn't find a single mistake.

She glanced slightly at the person opposite, then slowly said: "Big cousin, second cousin, Jin Yan has to go to pay his respects to his grandma, so I'll go ahead."

Fang Licheng smiled and nodded.

"Cousin Jinyan came to congratulate, cousin is flattered." Fang Lijin looked at Jiang Jinyan with a smile, but there was always a trace of scrutiny in his eyes.

For this cousin, he is not like his elder brother, who only regards her as a delicate girl.

"Where is the second cousin? It's just that Jinyan keeps the system and can't sit. Congratulations are what you should."

She was smiling, but lukewarm.

When she raised her head again, she unexpectedly met another pair of eyes that were as deep as ink behind them. Her heart tightened, and then she felt inexplicably relaxed.

Those eyes were deep but extremely peaceful, like a deep pool, which gave him the illusion of being calmed down.

He actually came?

He came back from Luoyang so soon?
This time, he played an important role in quelling King Xuan's rebellion. If Wang Zhao hadn't been a hindrance, he would probably be on his way to success, right?

Thinking of those boxes of Lanxi Maofeng, she glanced at Xu Junyan, feeling a little uncomfortable on her face.

Seeing Xu Junyan looking at her, the corners of her mouth raised slightly, she quickly lowered her head to avoid it, bit her lip, turned around and left with Xue Yan.

Xu Junyan frowned slightly as he watched her turn and leave.

Naturally, he didn't think that he would be wrong. The girl's strange expression when she saw Zhou Chengrui was completely beyond her usual indifference...

She... is interested in Zhou Chengrui?
Duan Wang Zhou Chengrui has an extraordinary appearance, and he is also a prince full of poetry in Luoyang, not to mention that he has not yet married...

He lowered his eyes, and the sadness in his eyes was completely covered.

When I came back from Youzhou, I naturally did so much without allowing her to refuse, but in the end it was still my own selfish desire.

Among the things that can be controlled, people's hearts are difficult to control after all, not to mention this girl has always had an extraordinary heart...

If there is that day, are you willing to let go?
Xu Junyan's face darkened.

At this time, Zhou Chengrui's eyes really lit up, but he didn't expect that this woman looked differently beautiful when he saw her up close, gentle and elegant, and her temperament was beyond dust.

Miss Fang's cousin?Calling himself Jinyan again?

That's it!

It's just that I didn't expect that such a stunning woman was the Jiang Jinyan who was rumored to be useless and vicious some time ago!

That is, the concubine mother wants to marry someone.

It turned out that she was such a beautiful woman, not to mention that her bearing was not possessed by ordinary boudoir ladies.

It's interesting...

With a smile on his lips, Zhou Chengrui looked at her back who was flustered just now, but was able to walk so calmly in an instant.

With this kind of heart, given time, this woman must not be a thing in the pool.

He only vaguely estimated that if he could get such a beautiful woman, it would be of great benefit to him, right?
