That little fly

Chapter 133 Engagement Banquet

The situation in the imperial court was changing, and in just half a month, the plots of various plots reversed and reversed again.Qi Wang Jiming, who once took advantage of Wei Wang Jixuan and jumped up and down to catch the murderer at the court meeting, was slapped in the face by the follow-up investigation results, and his image plummeted.However, King Wei, who had been cleared of the crime of murdering his brother, unfortunately exposed the taboo of raising a dead man privately while being proved innocent.As for the latter, whether it is big or small, there is no death or injury case involved, and it is not considered a violation of national law to raise a few idlers.

Many people who eat melons think that if the officials are angry, they will be angry, and the end must be that big things are turned into small things, and small things are turned into small things.Alas, fighting for reserves, all kinds of tricks behind the scenes, everyone tacitly.Unexpectedly, with a wave of the official's hand, it is rare to take this son's Wang Jue to the end in a swift and vigorous manner, and directly imprison him.The people who eat melons are confused: what's the situation?It is reasonable, reasonable and legal for His Royal Highness King Qin to cultivate [-] direct descendants of the Southern Army. His Highness King Wei raised a few dead soldiers, and there was no movement, so why did he even plot against him?But the cabinet, the legal office, and the Zongling all remained silent, so the little shrimps, who were so bluffed up and down, didn't dare to inquire carefully.

The matter of the fire was not mentioned in the whole incident.Ji Zhao originally didn't know how many people went through the records of the Ministry of Household Affairs, but judging from the default attitude of the cabinet and the legal office, probably, those old vixens could guess everything.Maybe someone was behind him and had no chance to look through the files again, but the destruction of the files itself was an act of 300 taels without silver. It was clear that there was a problem with the fire, but it was not a matter of words.

Yes, a fire is an accident.

There is no truth.

The face of the royal family must be preserved, and the image of the imperial court must be maintained.So this kind of scandal, no matter which dynasty or generation, is a cover-up.It is rare for officials to find other excuses to deal with the culprit. Therefore, the old foxes who guessed the truth collectively remained silent.

Wei Wang Jixuan's matter, the water is clear and shallow, not even the people who eat melons. After he returned to the imperial capital, he went back and forth between the military headquarters and the martial arts academy, suppressing a lot of learning items, even Xiao Feitian felt a little overwhelmed. It's too much, how can I pay attention to the cause and effect of Wei Wang's incident, besides, I don't know him well.But no matter how busy Shui Qingqian is, she must attend Xie Ming's engagement banquet, let alone Yuan Mu's wedding.

The engagement banquet will be held first, and Habayashi Wei's final test will be completed. Once they return to the imperial capital, the relationship between the two prefectures will be settled, and the officials will act as matchmakers.Both men and women had their own banquets in the mansion. Except for the hostess, the relatives of the seven aunts and eight aunts all met each other, eating and drinking, which was no different from ordinary birthday banquets. , but did not hear any more rumors of Princess Wen'an's objection to the marriage. She thought she was really taught to be honest.

Among the friends who congratulated Xie Ming, there were not only princes from various prefectures with extraordinary family backgrounds, but also young men from poor families whom they knew in the military camp. As a legendary figure in the two circles, Shui Qingqian almost took the lead.The topic was mainly about the scandal between him and Xie Ming's childhood sweetheart, Zhuma Zhuma. The old stalk had a long history, and Xie Ming was engaged, so everyone couldn't help but joke about it.

"What am I afraid of? It's because he has no vision." Shui Qingqian actively cooperated with the starring role, and said harshly in public: "Today I don't care about me, tomorrow I will let him not be able to climb up!"

Boom... Everyone laughed like a frying pan. They were generally young and young, and there was no taboo to make jokes.

"The world is getting worse, people's hearts are not old, how many years of friendship between you, just like this is disturbed by the beauty of the princess..."

"Young Master Ming, be careful, the color is a bone-scraping steel knife."

"Brothers are like siblings, husband and wife are like clothes."

"Get out! Missing arms and legs, brother, I've seen a lot, but which one of you is running naked in the street? Therefore, we must value sex over friends!"

"Go, go, go," Xie Ming blasted the crowd away, hooking Shui Qingqian's neck with his arm, "Little boy, we two will live and die together until we die, this is the official conclusion from the military department, do you want to go Where are you running?"

Oh oh oh oh... everyone is more able to boo, especially the group of people who participated in the survival trial.They have a summary of the report, probably because the two of them ended up out together, so there is such a well-known comment.

"Young Master Ming wants to eat everything, that's too greedy..."

The old and the young get together, and all kinds of jokes are uninhibited.

"Young Master Mu, do you have something on your mind?" While going out to change clothes, Xie Ming grabbed Yuan Mu in a corner of the remote courtyard, he felt that he didn't talk very much today, which was abnormal.

"nothing."

Oh, when he was blind?In terms of acquaintance, the two of them were good friends ten years earlier than Qingshui Qingqian.

Yuan Mujing stood for a while, then suddenly sighed, stepped back, and said with his head sideways, "You like lightness." It wasn't a question, it wasn't an exclamation, it was just a straightforward statement.

Xie Ming was taken aback for a moment, he had never explained this little thought to outsiders, and he could guarantee that he didn't even know Qingqian.Being exposed at this moment without any precautions, Xie Ming thought that he would panic, feel ashamed, subconsciously deny it, and pretend to go there...but he didn't.Looking into his friend's eyes, he suddenly said frankly, "Yes, I like him." The moment he admitted it, he even felt a sense of relaxation. "Unique, love till death without regret."

"Thinking about telling him?"

"Of course." Xie Ming didn't think about it.Although there is no specific plan yet, regarding his liking, he never thought of hiding it.

"Then why did you agree to this marriage?"

"Huh?" Xie Ming was confused, "Does it matter?"

Yeah, he thought it was okay.Yuan Mu wanted to throw out a relaxed and casual smile, but the corners of his mouth felt bitter no matter how he looked at it.

"Young Master Mu, you..." Xie Ming frowned, a dangerous intuition made him involuntarily take half a step back, and distanced himself from Yuan Mu, which was the kind of defensive posture that he couldn't control when the enemy was in front of him.

Seeing this, Yuan Mu sneered, "Why are you guarding against me? You're about to get engaged and marry a wife."

"No," Xie Ming didn't understand Yuan Mu's meaning.When it comes to getting married, the two of them are very different, they are all arranged by the family, Yuan Mu got married five months earlier than him, why do you have the nerve to make a mockery?It made Xie Ming feel that he had committed a huge stupid thing.I couldn't figure it out for a while, but with a beast-like intuition, Xie Ming felt that there was something he didn't know, which was very important.

Snapped!Xie Ming patted his face, calm down.

Young Master Mu... likes Qingqian!

When this cognition rushed into Xie Ming's mind, he was like a cat in danger, the hair on the back of his spine exploded instantly, the needles stood up, the strong pressure made his brain spin faster,

He likes light,

He ridiculed himself for being engaged, and he wants to get married too, okay... Uh, that's why he looks like a lawsuit?He thinks it's stupid to get married, uh, so he thinks the two are in conflict?

conflict?Why?Xie Ming doesn't understand, these are two different things, okay if they are not next to each other.

Yuan Mu looked at this childhood companion, emotional rival, and poor guy who was also a fallen man in the world, and smiled bitterly,

"We, married for the benefit of the family, and he...

If he gets married, it must be a matter of course due to the accumulation of feelings. "Yuan Mu's voice in the last sentence was already so weak that it was almost a whisper, and probably no one could hear it except himself.

Xie Ming looked blank: Huh?

Yuan Mu ignored him and turned to leave.

Xie Ming stood alone for a long time, until he heard that someone was looking for him, then he returned to the reception hall in a hurry.The front hall is still lively, don't look at the clear water, even if he holds a water glass, he can't stop people from all walks of life from sticking to him.Seeing Shui Qingqian, the strings in Xie Ming's brain suddenly collapsed. He found the gap and a lion and rabbit rushed over, firmly restraining Shui Qingqian's small body, and then his best friend gave him a strange look, "What are you doing?" Well?"

Boo!

Xie Ming heavily poked a big mark on Shui Qingqian's face.

Many people eating melons: (〃'▽'〃)

Shui Qingqian ruthlessly turned his elbow, and tore off the large dog stuck to his body, "Molesting a good family?"

The melon-eaters around watched the excitement and laughed, but Xie Ming regained consciousness clutching his stomach.He didn't know just now, his hands and feet were faster than his brain, just seeing Shui Qingqian, thinking of Mu Shao's attitude just now, he felt panic for no reason, making him feel as if Shui Qingqian would be with him in the next second Cutting off the gown and cutting off righteousness, old age and death have nothing to do with each other, so I don't know why the brain gets hot...

"Qingqian, I like you." Xie Ming held Shui Qingqian in his arms and did not let go.

Shui Qingqian with a confessed face: →_→

"How? You want me to spare you with a sweet talk?"

Xie Ming: ...

People who eat melons: ヽ()()

Shui Qingqian sneered, threw the cup back in his hand, turned over with a grappling technique, pinned down the disciple, and beat him violently, "If you don't hit me for three days, go to the house to Jiewa, you think I'm spoiled by children Parents?"

Xie Ming: ...

Xie Ming: Suddenly I feel so stupid.

After the engagement banquet, followed by the day of Yuan Mu's marriage, on this day, the first snow fell in the imperial capital after winter, and the fine snowflakes covered the imperial capital with a thin layer of veil, and the welcoming team was full The red color is somewhat covered, but it is soft and lively without losing its glamour, which is an auspicious omen.

Yuan Mu took a group of good gay friends to the woman's house to welcome her. Shui Qingqian and Xie Ming, the two generals, broke through the woman's barrier. The other party was no match at all, so they sent the bride It was snatched out, and then returned to Yuan Mansion in a lively manner, then prayed to heaven and earth, set up banquets, and made a bridal chamber. The real face of the new bride, and there is no appearance of any impolite moths.

Whether she is beautiful or not, even if she is not judged by the strange aesthetics of clear and shallow water, the bride's appearance cannot be ranked as amazing.But definitely not ugly, even looks very pleasing and bright under the bride's attire.Shui Qingqian paid attention to Yuan Mu's expression. At the moment when he lifted the hijab to see his true face, Yuan Mu still had a smile on his lips, without showing any surprise or disappointment, and his demeanor was perfect.

The bride and groom sit in rows on the marriage bed, and the bride sprinkles a handful of dates, peanuts and longan on the newlyweds, with lyrics in her mouth: one sprinkles glory and wealth; the second sprinkles gold and jade to fill the house; The first day; four sprinkles of dragon and phoenix with Chengxiang... until the singing of "Shiquan Dajixiang", there are only ten verses in total, but Shui Qingqian, the unscrupulous people who follow the trend, don't know how much they sprinkled on the bride and groom. Peanut Longan.Yuan Mu was full of demeanor and took the initiative to protect the bride. The gang of little bastards who made trouble in the bridal chamber were finally worthy of their background and education, and did not do those methods of intentionally hurting people that seemed enthusiastic and essentially vulgar.

After the laughter, Yuan Mu's eldest sister, the one who married Feng Ran, brought up a bowl of noodle soup to share with the couple.This is also a routine, a small bowl of noodle soup, every time you take a sip, the elder sister has to stir it in the bowl, and she has to say something while stirring, "Stir once, stir twice, you are more than you; stir three times, stir four, A child can be as clever as you are; five troubles and six troubles, the more alive the better; seven troubles and eight troubles, the house is full of children and grandchildren; nine troubles and ten troubles, you will grow old forever."

When just spreading dates and peanuts, Shui Qingqian was still booing with all kinds of excitement with everyone, like a dog with endless energy, but now he suddenly lost the interest to make noise with other people, feeling tired, maybe it was just now It was too lively, he just wanted to stand there quietly and listen to the big sister's lyrics, and then watch the newlyweds share the noodle soup one bite at a time, and watch the new couple sitting on the bed, shoulder to shoulder, head to head.No matter what he argued with Yuan Mu, no matter how much he disdains the so-called upper-class marriage, the reality is that from today onwards, Yuan Mu's closest partner for the rest of his life is wearing the same style and color as him at this very moment. The Yuan Lu family who shared the same bed.

Husband and wife are one body, advancing and retreating together, they are the 'Yuanshi couple' who can no longer be separated from each other.

Shui Qingqian's mood suddenly changed.

In his 15 years of life, half of the time was spent with Yuan Mu. For seven years, they met in Taixue every day, got along day and night, and shared all the joys, sorrows, sorrows and joys.Sometimes Shui Qingqian even feels that the relationship between him and Yuan Mu is closer than Yuan Mu and Xie Ming who grew up together. They share the same interests and talk about everything.But starting today, he is no longer the closest one to Yuan Mu.Yuan Mu married his wife, he went to get closer to others, and Mu Shao was snatched away by others.

It seems that it was only at this moment that Shui Qingqian clearly felt what the big step of "marrying" meant to him.It wasn't until this moment that he clearly realized that he and Yuan Mu had already walked on diverging paths, drifting away and parting ways... Maybe it's not appropriate to say this, because friendship doesn't end with a certain marriage. Cut off, in the future, they are more likely to work together in the same dynasty for the rest of their lives, but that's not the case, he just felt that he was excluded from Young Master Mu's life circle, he was left behind.

When everyone in the house was still noisy, Shui Qingqian quietly exited the new house and walked in the yard alone. The banquet in the front yard was still making noise. After toasting, as the second general of the groom, he must be indispensable.Shui Qingqian felt that he should adjust his mood as soon as possible, what is he doing now, a good friend for a lifetime, no matter what, he can't be disappointed in such a critical occasion... But he is not happy.

Shui Qingqian knows that she is naive like this, just like the domineering jealousy of "I can't be nice to him so you can't be nice to him" when she was a child, but what's the use of just knowing, mood is something that doesn't follow reason of.Shui Qingqian walked towards the courtyard with a sullen mood, but met Feng Ran after changing clothes.As a member of the Yuan family, he has been greeting guests in front, and when he saw Shui Qingqian appearing here, he asked casually, "Is the trouble over there?"

"Not yet, the eldest sister just brought in the noodle soup."

Feng Ran calculated the time in his mind, "Then it will take a while, why did you come out? Or, do you want to come earlier?"

"Uh..." Shui Qingqian wanted to find a place to hide and relax.

Feng Ran squinted at Xiao Feitian's pouty bun face, was he unhappy?Who messed with him again?

"Brother Ran, why do you think people want to get married?"

When Feng Ran rolled his eyes, he understood in seconds!Stall, who is about the same age as Shui Qingqian, should be the age to meet and talk about marriage. With Shui Qingqian at the level of skipping a grade in Taixue, the people around him are probably getting married and engaged, and he is the only one left. One... However, this little flying sky is talented and good-looking, and his family background, status, wealth, and official career almost surpass all his peers. He is the golden tortoise among the golden tortoises, so he doesn't have to worry.Feng Ran realized again.There are so many guests at the wedding, especially the group of female relatives who are surrounded by the bride. The seven aunts and eight aunts are most keen on this kind of thing, and the relatives of the sea merchant Lu family probably don't understand the noble and sensitive identity of this little flying sky, so , someone is messing with him again?Feng Ran knew that even the officials were paying attention to this little one's marriage.But if you say a thousand words and ten thousand words, let's go back to the issue of clear and shallow water.Is this a problem?

"When you reach the age, you should get married." Feng Ran's tone made sense, "Just like you should go to school when you reach the age."

"Then you married the elder sister of the Yuan family because you are old?"

"Of course it's more than that. There are many things to consider. Family background, status, relationship between the two governments, involvement in the court... How can I make it clear in a few words? Of course," Feng Ran said back, "I and Your big sister from the Yuan family can finally get married, this is also the fate cultivated in the previous life."

So you said so much, the only thing you didn't consider was feelings?In the end, what kind of fate is said, it is so far-fetched that it makes people feel embarrassed.Shui Qingqian pouted secretly, "It's so boring, I don't want to get married."

"Then do this? There are three kinds of unfilial piety, and having no offspring is the greatest, understand?" Feng Ran taught with a serious face, this is a matter of principle.

Shui Qingqian blinked her eyes and suddenly realized.

What wives and concubines, what loyalty, everything he argued with Yuan Mu was nonsense, and Brother Ran's sentence just now was the finishing touch: No offspring is great!

Only when you get married can you have legitimate offspring, and then realize the prosperity and endless life of the family.For families in the upper class, getting married is never the sublimation of feelings, everything is just for the continuation of the family.Therefore, they will calculate the gains and losses before getting married, and they don't care about wives and concubines after getting married.

Marriage, hehe, as expected, this matter is not suitable for him.

"Qingqian? Qingqian, why did you come here? I was looking for you just now." Xie Ming's voice sounded from behind, and footsteps came trotting over.The bridal chamber was busy, but Xie Ming found that Shui Qingqian disappeared at some point, and he came all the way to find... Uh, what's going on now?Doesn't Xiao Feitian of his family seem very happy?Xie Ming gave Feng Ran a questioning look.

Feng Ran: You ask me?I'm just an innocent passerby eating melons. Your little Feitian has been unhappy for a long time, and you can see it?

Shui Qingqian didn't explain to Xie Ming his epiphany just now. He knew that Xie Ming's marriage had nothing to do with love. So-and-so, until now he doesn't know who that person is (`炸), but on this matter, he doesn't want to add salt to Xie Ming's heartache, this is the thoughtfulness of a good friend .Although Shui Qingqian believes that feelings are very important, but growing up in such an environment, he also knows what responsibility and morality are.Like Xie Ming, like Yuan Mu, their families have supported them for so many years, not for them to only care about themselves when they grow up.Sometimes responsibility also means sacrifice.

Shui Qingqian didn't want to tell Xie Ming why she was unhappy, so what is the difference between Xie Ming and Yuan Mu's situation?Sooner or later, they will get married, whether it is for responsibility or for morality. In the future, they will have their own circle, and they will have someone to share everything with them, anytime, anywhere.

A good friend for seven or eight years, in the end he became a loner, and he was not wanted anymore╥﹏╥
