The reborn poisonous woman is hard to abandon

Chapter 223 The Uninvited Guest

There was plenty of charcoal fire in the room, and everyone was in harmony, Zhao Yixuan was reluctant to let go of the Qingyun Sword, and began to make decent gestures.

Zhao Yixuan was still young, but his appearance of dancing the sword was serious, and he immediately drew a lot of compliments when he performed a few moves in style.

And just when Zhao Yixuan was about to put away the sword, a colorful parrot flew in from nowhere.

The parrot is as big as an adult's palm, with three colors of red, yellow and green on its back, and dazzling golden yellow under its belly. Its coat is bright and beautiful, and it is extremely beautiful.

It seemed that it came here specially for Zhao Yixuan, it hovered in the room for a while, and landed directly on his arm.

Princess Zhu Xi of Nanjing was startled by the sudden bird, and was about to step forward to drive the parrot away, but Zhao Yixuan stared at the parrot on her arm curiously: "Mother, this parrot is so beautiful! Can you speak?"

Before Princess Nanjing could speak, the parrot seemed to understand Zhao Yixuan's words, stared at the black bean-like eyes, shook its feathers, and suddenly opened its mouth.

"Auspicious son! Auspicious princess!"

The crunchy sound like a child came out of the parrot's mouth, and everyone was surprised for a while, thinking that the bird had already understood human nature.

Zhao Yixuan raised his arms and shouted excitedly: "Mother! It can really talk!"

Zhao Yixuan was very happy, and carefully stretched out his hand to touch the parrot's feathers. Just when his hand was about to touch the golden feathers, the parrot suddenly spread its wings and flew away.

"Mom! Grab that parrot!"

Seeing the parrot flying towards the door while shouting "Auspicious son", Zhao Yixuan was anxious, and hurriedly shook Zhu Qian's hand, asking her to help someone catch it for him.

Although the parrot is small, it is extremely agile, everyone in the room flung left and right to grab but failed, but the parrot has already flown outside the door.

Everyone thought that the parrot was about to fly to the ground without a trace. Suddenly, a woman wearing a rose-red double-embroidered satin dress came to the door, and she was holding an exquisite gilt and filigree birdcage in her hand.

Surprisingly, when the parrot saw the woman at the door, it flew into the cage very obediently.

Seeing this, Zhao Yixuan immediately let go of Zhu Qian's hand, ran to the woman in a hurry, looked at the birdcage in her hand longingly, and said with a sweet voice, "Sister, you are here to celebrate my son's birthday ?”

"Xiao Shizi is indeed extremely smart. I came here specially to celebrate your birthday."

With a smile on her face, the woman handed the birdcage in her hand to Zhao Yixuan, patted the birdcage lightly, and the parrot inside immediately called out "Auspicious son".

"Great! I really like the gift my sister gave me!"

Zhao Yixuan let out a cry of excitement, and hastily reached out to take the cage, ignoring the others.

Seeing this, the smile on the woman's face grew stronger, and then, under the astonished eyes of everyone, she slowly walked towards Zhu Qian who was on the main seat, and bowed to salute.

"Huo Yixuan, the government of South Korea, congratulates the young prince of Nanjing on his birthday. I wish the young prince all the best and prosperity, and I wish the princess all the best, and every year will be prosperous."

"It's rare that Miss Huo still remembers my son's birthday."

Different from the smile on Huo Yixuan's face, Zhu Xi pulled the corners of her mouth and forced a smile.But in a blink of an eye, seeing Zhao Yixuan hugging the birdcage Huo Yixuan sent and refusing to let go, he suddenly felt a headache.

On Zhao Yixuan's birthday this year, Zhu Qian didn't make a big fuss, she just invited some close friends who usually go to the house to have a gathering, and Huo Yixuan was not invited.

Now that she came uninvited, it was really uncomfortable.

Glancing at Xiao Ruan under the seat, Zhu Qian was about to send this person away, but Zhao Yixuan suddenly ran up to Huo Yixuan and took her hand: "Sister, come and tell me quickly, apart from this parrot being able to say auspicious things about the son, What else can I say?"

"This parrot is a gift I specially asked someone to find for Shizi. As long as Shizi teaches it, it can say anything."

Huo Yixuan looked at Zhao Yixuan lovingly, and explained to Zhao Yixuan very gently and patiently, Zhao Yixuan's eyes lit up, and she had already forgotten about her mother.

For a while, Zhu Qian couldn't chase people away anymore, so she had to let Huo Yixuan stay.

"Cut! This woman is too thick-skinned. Princess Jingnan didn't invite her at all, and she still has the nerve to come here. I don't know what shady purpose she is hiding!"

As the parrot imitated Zhao Yixuan's speech, the room gradually became lively again. Lu Heng stared at Huo Yixuan who made Zhao Yixuan laugh, with disdain flashing in his eyes.

Everyone around was attracted by the parrot, but no one noticed Lu Heng who was whispering to Xiao Ruan.

Xiao Ruan looked at Huo Yixuan calmly, and a flash of thought flashed in his eyes.

Everyone knows that Prince Jingnan's family is friendly with Huo Xun, and the second wife of Huo's family is at odds with the eldest. Today, Huo Yixuan took the initiative to come to the door. Could it be that she also wants to climb into Prince Jingnan's mansion?
Besides, the fact that she was slandered by Daoist Gao was definitely related to Erfang, so when she looked at Huo Yixuan, Xiao Ruan felt as uncomfortable as eating a fly.

Princess Jingnan didn't want Zhao Yixuan to have too much contact with Huo Yixuan for a long time, seeing that the time was just right, she immediately took everyone to the banquet hall.

The whole banquet went smoothly, and nothing unexpected happened.Because Lu Heng drank too much tea, he took the little maid to the toilet in the middle of the banquet, while Xiao Ruan stayed at the banquet to watch the performance.

Princess Jingnan invited the most famous opera troupe in the capital today, playing, singing and juggling are very exciting.

When Xiao Ruan applauded along with the crowd, she always felt that there was a gaze fixed on her body. Looking back, she saw Huo Yixuan whispering to the people around her calmly, as if she didn't have the time to give her eyes.

His eyes flickered a few times, and Xiao Ruan couldn't help turning his gaze to the door again.

Lu Heng went to use the toilet, and now it has been a full half an hour, and he still hasn't come back, but he doesn't know where he went.

For a while, Xiao Ruan became more and more worried that something unexpected happened to Lu Heng.But seeing that Princess Jingnan was talking with a lady, it was inconvenient to say something, so she could only leave the banquet hall with Li Yun behind her.

Xiao Ruan was no stranger to the Jingnan Palace, so it was not that difficult to find it, but after searching in the garden for a long time, he did not see Lu Heng.

The sun was fine, but the weather was still cold, but the tip of Xiao Ruan's nose turned red in a moment.

Just when she searched everywhere for Lu Heng, she suddenly saw a strange maid rushing over.

"General's Madam, are you looking for Miss Lu? Miss Lu is being molested by a swinger in the front yard, hurry up and ask someone to save her!"

Xiao Ruan was shocked when he heard this.

No wonder she couldn't find Lu Heng in the backyard. It turned out that he went to the front yard.

"Go to the front yard immediately to find out who is molesting Miss Heng. If that person is disrespectful to her, just go up and teach her a lesson, and I'll go find the princess."

Thinking that the maid Lu Heng was being molested, Xiao Ruan immediately asked Li Yun to go to the front yard to rescue Lu Heng.

Li Yun took the order and immediately followed the servant girl to the front yard, but as soon as Li Yun left, Xiao Ruan felt that something was wrong.

If Lu Heng was really molested by someone in the front yard, Lu Hanrui is also at the house today, so he should not come to inform her.

For a moment, Xiao Ruan's footsteps could not help but slow down.

Wiping his waist, Xiao Ruan was about to take out the contents inside and was always ready for an accident when he suddenly felt a black shadow flashing behind him, followed by a pain in the back of his head, and immediately lost consciousness.

On the other side, Lu Heng came back from the toilet and followed the servant girl of the palace unsuspectingly, but turned towards the front yard without knowing it.

"You bastard! Our hall has strictly ordered that there must be no mistakes in this matter. You actually lost people after you. What use does this hall want you to have!"

Passing through an arched door, Lu Heng suddenly heard an angry shout from a distance, and couldn't help being startled.

Stopping in his tracks and looking curiously at the source of the sound, Lu Heng realized that the man who was standing not far away and reprimanded him was Prince Zhao Han.

And Zhao Han seemed to have heard the movement here, and just turned his head to meet Lu Heng who was full of surprise.

Zhao Han was overjoyed, and immediately drove away the servants around him, and greeted Lu Heng.

"Could it be that I frightened you by reprimanding the servant just now?"

Zhao Han subconsciously thought that the surprise on Lu Heng's face was because he was shocked by his angrily scolding his subordinates just now, and quickly showed an amiable expression.

During this period of time, he often found excuses to go to the Grand Tutor's residence, but Lu Heng didn't seem to have much affection for him other than asking him to help prove Xiao Ruan's innocence, and for a while Zhao Han felt a little uneasy.

"On weekdays, the prince is gentle, but he treats his servants so cruelly and indifferently in private."

Looking back at the little girl next to her, she thought that the little girl was instructed by Zhao Han to bring herself in front of him on purpose.

And Zhao Han felt that because of what happened just now, he left a bad impression in Lu Heng's heart.

Seeing the person on the opposite side wearing fox fur but still with red nose from the cold, the prince stood in front of Lu Heng with a smile on his face: "Miss Lu, it is a kind of fate that we met today, why don't we find a place alone , how about I treat you to a cup of hot tea as an apology?"

Lu Heng turned around slightly, and seeing the prince also moving his feet, still standing in front of him, a blush suddenly rose on his face.

This person had confessed his love to her at the banquet in the palace before, and then frequently found excuses to come to Lu's mansion to look for her. Naturally, Lu Heng was very clear about the prince's feelings for her.

Originally, she thought that this was Prince Jingnan's Mansion after all, if people want to see the two of them here, it would be very unsightly to chatter here.But seeing that the princelings were following her way with a look that could not be refused, she could only aim her eyes elsewhere, and finally nodded slightly.

The crown prince has a close relationship with the King of Nanjing, and he often rests here. The King of Nanjing specially left him a pavilion for him to live in when he comes here for a rest.

The pavilion is built along the water. From a distance, the scene of the pavilion seems to be floating on the white water, which is amazing.

A thin layer of ice formed on the surface of the water, reflecting a layer of soft light under the sunlight, and the pavilion seemed to be built in the light.
