The Noble Woman’s Guide On How to Tease One’s Husband
Chapter 8: Watch the tide
After more than half a month, Prince Lan and Yefu were surprisingly calm. The wall was built and the panda nest was repaired. It seemed that nothing had happened. No one mentioned the events of that night. The tacit understanding was so good. amazing.
From another point of view, Chu Jinglan refused to cooperate with Ye Huaiyang, and Ye Huaiyang did not respond. Every day, he still handled the family affairs step by step. People who did not understand her thought she had given up, but understood her. People such as Yueya knew very well in her heart that her lady must be calculating something secretly. After all, the person who was almost assassinated was the person she had been thinking about for many years. How could she be able to breathe out without pulling the culprit behind the scenes?
Sure enough, it didn't take long for her idea to be confirmed.
Every October, the Yijiang River that flows through the capital city will have a landscape called Yixianchao. Whether it is the people of Li people or the princes and nobles, they are rushing to see the wonders.
Because of the special geographical structure, there are a lot of Tingzhou in the royal capital. The largest area is about 60 hectares and can accommodate tens of thousands of people. The most amazing thing is that the tide will be caught when passing through this conical Tingzhou. Divided into two waves, like a wild goose spreading its wings, it generally extends to both sides of the bank. After hitting a solid dam, it regroups in the opposite direction, and finally flows downstream together.
As a result, Tingzhou has become the first choice for viewing, and the place with the best view is Yujinglou.
There is a high platform near the river, and the Yujing Tower is built on the high platform, towering to the sky, and exceptionally magnificent. Standing on it, you can immediately see the magnificent scenery when the tide is divided. Because of this, it is hard to find a seat in the Yujing Tower. Many people have booked months in advance, but this year they have been turned down without exception. They can't help but sigh-who taught them not to be the owner?
At this moment, the owner is alone on the top-floor terrace overlooking the mirror-blue river.
"Miss, there is still an hour before the arrival of the tide. It is very windy here. Would you like to go inside and rest for a while?"
"Maybe something."
Ye Huaiyang's ten fingers clasped the railing tightly, and his palms were wet and sticky. As soon as the wind blew, the fingers radiated coolness, and immediately more sweat leaked out.
No matter, how can you overcome something that has been feared for so many years?
She smiled wryly, pulled out the silk paw and wiped the sweat from her hands, turned her head and asked Crescent: "Where has Ling'er gone?"
Yueya Fushou replied: "If you return to Miss, Miss Nine has already been on the boat, saying that she wants to feel the feeling of the wave passing by." After that, she pointed to the sharpest point along the Tingzhou line. A huge cruise ship is mooring on the shore, and a few people can be seen faintly, especially the water-red dress, which is very conspicuous.
"Naughty." Ye Huaiyang faintly rebuked, and frowned Yun's eyebrows and ordered, "Ci Yuan, go down and look at her, don't let her be in any danger."
Ci Yuan nodded, and the wind left.
The sun is rising, the light is getting brighter and brighter, the Yujinglou is plated with a layer of golden coat, the hanging windows are hung one by one, replaced with a hazy single gauze, and occasionally the river breeze passes through the hall, and then it turns and swings. more than.
The lower pavilions next to each other were full of people, all of them were brightly dressed and elegantly demeaned. They were obviously young ladies from the family, but the crowded seats made them quite uncomfortable. At this moment, they saw the empty Yujinglou open. When I came out of the window, I couldn't help but cast a bitter look, as if I wanted to look through the tulle to see who occupies the beautiful scenery, but I couldn't see it.
The terrace was fairly clean, with no noise or irritating eyes, Ye Huaiyang stood motionless until the sound of footsteps rang downstairs.
Is he here?
Ye Huaiyang suppressed the ecstasy in his heart and turned and looked back. The steady sound of boots hovered up the wooden stairs, matching her drum-like heartbeat, and everything stopped abruptly until the figure of that person was exposed before her eyes.
"Lord."
She politely bowed, the moon-white dress swept across the rails, like a stream of snow, and the light veil floated in front of her from time to time, blocking the sight of the two of them. In the vastness, Chu Jinglan's magnetic voice was clear from the opposite side. Came from the ground.
"Night girl."
After that thrilling night, this name is no longer unfamiliar to Chu Jinglan.
At first, he only recognized Ye Huaiyang’s voice. Following the glimpse of the Hanzhang Palace, he realized that there was a bold lady in Ye Huaiyang, but it was not until Ye Huaiyang passed through the broken wall to arrive at Lan Wang’s Mansion. I know, it was rumored that the stinky female owner of the Zhongye family lived next to him. After being silent for a while, he unexpectedly received her invitation two days ago. He came here just to see what she wanted to do.
"Lord, please come to your seat."
Ye Huaiyang raised his hand to invite him to the table, and immediately sat on the opposite side, separated by a wenge-wood dwarf table with a tea set on it, Ye Huaiyang held a sleeve in one hand and a pot in the other, and poured the boiled dew into the tea. Then closed the lid and shook it twice, filtering the water and leaving the leaves twice. After the last water was poured, the slender hands pushed the tea cup in front of Chu Jinglan.
"Lord, try it, this year's new Penglai Xianhao."
Chu Jinglan's gaze moved from her white fingers back into the tea cup, and she saw the emerald green needles hit the jade wall for a while, then sank into the blue waves, floating back and forth, and finally landed on the bottom of the cup. The fragrance floated out, lingering on the tip of the nose for a long time.
He took a sip from the jade cup, and then said, "Very good."
These extremely simple words have taught Ye Huaiyang to be full of joy, and she couldn't help but curl her eyebrows and say: "If the prince likes it, I will send some to your house later."
"Miss Ye's mind is the king's heart. Because she rarely drinks tea in her daily life, she shouldn't be violent."
Chu Jinglan's refusal was fairly gentle, and his expression was relatively mild, but Ye Huaiyang's hot eyes instantly cooled down.
He is lying.
In the past two years, she has sent people to the Northland to protect him. His vigilance has always been very high, so the people sent there are almost useless, and the things returned by the flying pigeons are more like daily notes. She wrote what color clothes he usually wears and what flavours he likes to eat. After reading it, she remembered it carefully.
So she knew he was lying, because he liked Penglai Xianhao the most.
At this point, Ye Huaiyang finally realized that he was also blocked by Chu Jinglan in the mask. He didn't remember her at all. In his eyes, she was just an outsider with an unpredictable heart, not the little girl who was nestled in his arms back then. Up.
Thinking of this, she seemed to change the subject indifferently and said: "The tide is approaching, so why don't you go to the terrace with me to watch it?"
Chu Jinglan raised his eyes and looked into her eyes, as if a faint emotion flashed by, he hadn't caught it yet, she had turned around and walked towards the terrace, after a while, he stepped forward and stood shoulder to shoulder with her.
I don’t know when the sun will disappear, and there seems to be a water dragon roaring under the calm surface of the river, deafening. This is a sign that the tide is coming. Ye Huaiyang stared at the flower-like water belt and couldn’t help turning his head. However, it happened to meet Chu's shocked and deep eyes, and the past instantly rushed to his heart.
Ten years ago, she almost drowned in this river.
At that time, the people were unable to eat for many years of natural disasters. The White Lotus Sect went around searching for children born on the fifth day of May under the banner of eliminating disasters, saying that they were possessed by demons and executed by waterboarding to protect the people from the disaster. Ye Huaiyang was born on this day. When she was playing outside, she was accidentally arrested by Taoist priests. On the day of execution, she and many children were locked in a cage and hung on the river surface with many children. They were only sunk after the Taoist priests finished the Dharma. Entering the bottom of the water, Chu Jinglan led his troops to the very moment.
At that time, Ye Huaiyang was so scared that she would kick and kick whenever anyone approached. The soldiers recognized the clan emblem on her, and they were afraid to use it. It was Chu Jinglan who took her out of the cage in person. Wen Sheng calmed down and watched her go from tense to relaxed, then softly sobbed, and finally fell asleep in his arms. He didn't put her down all the way.
Later, Ye Huaiyang learned of his identity from his father's thanking Chu Jinglan and kept it in his heart. Now ten years later, this man is standing in front of her again.
"Since I was young, this is my first time watching the tide. The prince knows why?" She chuckled lightly, but her face turned pale.
Chu Jinglan clearly saw that her fingertips were shaking, her eyes were slightly stagnant, and she asked, "Why?"
"Because I have suffered an extinction here, a young man saved me." She turned sideways and stared at Chu Jinglan, with a smile, "Speaking of which, the silver-gray brocade robe he wore that day was similar to that of the prince. It looks so much."
Chu Jinglan looked at her silently, his expression unchanged.
At this moment, white waves turned up on the foggy water in the distance, like a giant dragon crossing the river, spraying beads and foaming, and the stairs also made a thumping sound. Someone was picking up the steps and quickly approached the two of them.
"Sister Yang, I'm late! Are you on top?"
The shouting man has a very thick voice, but he is a little short of breath because of climbing upstairs. He is obviously not a practicing man. Ye Huaiyang motioned to Crescent Moon to close the door on the top floor while leaning into Chu Jinglan's ear, her eyes bright and exhaling blue.
"I wonder how the prince considered the proposal I made that day?"
Chu Jinglan neither stretched out her hand to open her nor watched the movement outside the door, only faintly refused: "This king will not cooperate with you."
Hearing this, Ye Huaiyang lifted his lips and smiled. Obviously he had expected that he would give this answer, but he did not rush to say: "It doesn't matter, then treat the next show as a gift from me to the prince. , If the prince regrets after seeing the gift, it will not be too late to come to Yejia again, I will always wait for you."
She spoke in a low voice, but what she said contained endless deep meaning. Chu Jinglan narrowed her eyes slightly, before she could see any clues from her face, a dark shadow suddenly came up, banging the door.
"Sister Yang, it's me, open the door!"
On the other side of the river, a water wall with a height of several people has already risen. In the blink of an eye, he came to the front of Tingzhou, as if he was about to buckle down, accompanied by loud rumbling noises and the excitement of the crowd watching the tide, Chu Jinglan's ears I couldn't hear anything, I only saw Ye Huaiyang's smile sway from his eyes, and then his whole body quickly flashed into the inner room, and the people outside also broke in at the same time.
It is Bai Zihao, the third youngest of the Bai family.
The tide reached its highest point at this time, and the moment it rushed to Tingzhou split into two streams, and a huge wind was rolled up. The light yarns on the Yujing Tower were all unhooked, and the top floor was no longer covered, Chu Jinglan and The picture of Bai Zihao in the same room just appeared in everyone's vision.
"Huh? How could the two of them watch the tide together? The Bai family wasn't..."
"What do you know? It's not the first time that the Bai family has seen the wind and the rudder. Maybe this time I want to go back and re-loyal to the old master..."
Bai Zihao's face turned pale when he heard it, and he just wanted to scold the people who chewed his tongue through the window, but was stiffened by the thin cold in Chu Jinglan's eyes.
Damn it! How could I meet him here!
The discussion around him grew louder and louder, and Bai Zihao's face turned red and white, and finally fled in a panic.
Chu Jinglan turned and opened the door of the inner room. There was no one inside, leaving only a faint fragrance.
