The king was wrong

Chapter 28 Wen House

"finally reached."

While speaking, the carriage stopped in front of Wen's residence.Wei Yanxi raised the curtain and saw the people in the Wen residence who had already been waiting at the door. With a rare smile on her lips, she got out of the car first.

After he got out of the car, Qi Yaoqing slumped on the seat and lost all strength for a while, unable to move.This is simply too dramatic, not to mention him, I'm afraid even Wei Yanxi herself can't imagine that the person who has missed him for ten years is far away in the sky and close in front of her eyes!

If it wasn't for the random question just now... Qi Yaoqing smiled wryly and shook his head, fearing that if he searched for him for the rest of his life, he would never be able to find that "Little Seven Sister".

He sat in the car for a long time, until his stiff fingers regained a little sense of touch and his head cleared up a bit, then he took a deep breath, raised his sleeves and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and got out of the carriage with conflicted emotions.

"Ouch! Princess be careful, don't fall!"

Perhaps it was because of the shock in his heart, Qi Yaoqing was still a little dizzy at the moment, he didn't even count the steps clearly when he got off the carriage, and when he reached the last frame, he staggered and fell down.Fortunately, the coachman responded in a timely manner and quickly helped him, otherwise the dignified Princess Yong might have fallen to the ground at this moment.

Qi Yaoqing supported the door frame of the carriage to stand firm, turned around and smiled gratefully at the driver, straightened his sleeves and walked towards Wei Yanxi who was greeting everyone in front of the Wen Mansion.

"Princess...your body...are you alright?"

Although the coachman knew that in his own capacity, he should not intervene in the matter of the princess, after all, the prince is still there, so it is nothing for him to come to care about the princess' body.But after seeing the pale face and the weak and forced smile on it, he still couldn't help asking more politely.

Qi Yaoqing was taken aback, shook his head subconsciously, and said with a smile: "It's okay, I'm fine, thank you."

The concubine said this herself, so the coachman couldn't say anything more, so he could only scratch his head in embarrassment, and watched Qi Yaoqing go away.

"My lord's Wentao and Wulue are well-known, and seeing him now is really a blessing that I have cultivated for several lifetimes!"

In front of Wen's mansion, Qi Yaoqing's uncle, Wen Changxu, spared no effort to pursue Wei Yanxi, with the appearance that he wished to praise Wei Yanxi to the sky in one fell swoop.

The reason why he did this was not without intention.Although Qi Yaoqing didn't elaborate on the reason when he sent people here two days ago, how can Lan Chao accompany his wife back to his mother's family to visit after a few days of marriage?Even folks rarely have them, let alone Tianjia.

Wen Changxu has been sitting in the position of sixth-rank member wailang for many years, and he can't get high enough or low enough. Because of his mediocre qualifications, even if he wants to climb up, there is no way to follow.But this time is different, my nephew, who has little contact with him, attracted King Yong not long after he got married to King Yong's mansion. If he still can't grasp such a great opportunity, then he really has no hope in this life. .

With this in mind, Wen Changxu treated Wei Yanxi with great respect, and only hoped that he would be happy to find a better seat for himself in front of the emperor after he had flattered King Yong.

Wei Yanxi stood in front of him with her hands behind her back, her eyes scanned all the people standing there, and she was very depressed to find that there was no one who looked similar to Qi Yaoqing at all.Wen Changxu's ears were filled with all kinds of flattery, he frowned a little displeased, thinking why the princess was moving so slowly, he had been waiting here for a long time and he hadn't come yet.

Subconsciously looking towards the carriage, with just one glance at Wei Yanxi, he caught a glimpse of Qi Yaoqing getting out of the carriage and not standing still, and the driver reaching out to support him.

For some reason, Wei Yanxi became unhappy all of a sudden—I haven't touched my concubine myself, so how dare you, a little coachman, touch her?

What's even more annoying is that my princess didn't seem offended at all, and thanked him with a smile. Later, you chatted with me one by one.

Hmph, speaking of Zhu Yaozi first, then the two maids, and now a little coachman, Wei Yanxi is depressed, why does the princess always look indifferent when facing her, but every time When you meet other people, put on a gentle and modest smile!

Wei Yanxi sighed deeply, the relationship got into trouble until the end, her princess was close to everyone, but she was the least close to herself...

Sometimes there is really no reason for this kind of depression. It stands to reason that the two have only been married for a few days, and they haven't seen each other a few times. They even made an appointment to separate as soon as they find Miss Seven. Wei Yanxi doesn't need to pay attention at all. Qi Yaoqing's every move.

But the fact is that not only did he pay attention, but he even got jealous with a coachman, which Wei Yanxi would never have imagined before.

"The minister is late, Lord Lao has been waiting for a long time."

As soon as Qi Yaoqing came over, he saw that Wei Yanxi's expression was wrong, he felt a "thump" in his heart, thinking that maybe his uncle and the prince said something that shouldn't be said, let him see the clues.But after thinking about it, no one knows what happened back then except for a few close people, so there must be no word about it.

He suppressed the uneasiness in his chest, smiled a little, and lowered his head to admit his mistake to Wei Yanxi.If my expectations are correct, I am afraid that even if the lord meets the two cousins ​​in the Wen residence today, he will only return disappointed.That being the case, it's better not to touch his bad luck yet.

"Well, it's okay, the princess will take her time."

Wei Yanxi looked away uncomfortably, with an awkward expression.Just now she said that her princess kisses everyone, but treats herself coldly, look, now she catches a clue.

How could Qi Yaoqing not hear the coldness in his voice?It's just that there were so many people present, and I really didn't understand what Wei Yanxi was awkward about, so I had to salute politely, and exchanged greetings with my uncle.

"Oh, I haven't seen Yaoqing for a long time. I didn't expect such a beautiful figure to appear! The last time I saw you was at your cousin's wedding banquet, and you came to congratulate her on behalf of your father. Tsk tsk, I didn't expect to be married in thanks to the blessing of the Holy One." The Palace of Prince Yong, becoming Concubine Yong, is really a great event for the family, and it is not in vain of your mother's years of careful cultivation!"

Speaking of his younger sister, Wen Changxu still has deep feelings.The relationship between the two of them, brother and sister, has been very good in the early years, even after the younger sister married Qi Xiaosu as his wife, the relationship has never been broken.It's a pity that my younger sister passed away early, and the position of Mrs. Qi's wife was taken by an inconspicuous concubine, and I didn't make any achievements in my career, which was not as great as Sheng Guogong's family, so I gradually lost contact with her.

Now when I saw Qi Yaoqing who was [-]% similar to his younger sister, even Wen Changxu, who was so smooth and sophisticated, couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

"Hehe, it's Uncle Gao who saw it." Qi Yaoqing nodded with a smile, kind but polite.

In fact, Qi Yaoqing was not very impressed with this uncle.Due to the early death of his mother, Qi Yaoqing did not have much contact with the Wen family, and it can even be said to be quite small. It was just a gift to each other during the New Year and festivals to express his affection.

In contrast, most of Qi Yaoqing's memories of Wen Changxu seem to be on the sweets that his uncle brought to him when he followed his mother back to her mother's house as a guest when he was a child.

At that time, I was still the eldest son of the Qi family who was sought after by others...

The past can always arouse people's infinite nostalgia and nostalgia for the past. Wen Changxu and Qi Yaoqing are just a little closer because of the Wen family bond. The nephew and uncle wanted to sit on the ground in front of the door and have a good talk.

"Today my nephew and the prince came to visit rashly and disturbed my uncle."

Wen Changxu can understand royal etiquette, but Qi Yaoqing can't.Although they were his own uncles, what kind of thing was it that the two of them held hands in front of the door and put aside the respectable Prince Yong?So Qi Yaoqing still reminded his uncle very vaguely, let him distinguish between priorities, and don't lose courtesy in front of the prince.

Wen Changxu has been in the officialdom for many years. Although he has not made any major breakthroughs in his official position, he still has good eyesight.Hearing Qi Yaoqing say this, he slapped his head and immediately realized that he had misplaced his emphasis.So he quickly let go of Qi Yaoqing's hand, and smiled at Wei Yanxi while asking him to go inside.

"Oh my lord, take a look, I almost forgot about being so happy. The mansion knew you were coming, so they specially prepared refreshments and meals, and Rong Chen led you in."

Wei Yanxi looked at Wen Changxu, then at Qi Yaoqing who was following behind her, said "hum" expressionlessly, and then followed into the gate of Wen's residence.

As for this Wen Mansion, there are many pavilions, towers, pavilions, small bridges and flowing water, but for some reason, there is always a trace of anger missing in people's eyes.It stands to reason that the Wen Mansion can be called a big mansion in Kyoto, but it is a little less luxurious than the Shengguo Mansion, and a little less grand and sophisticated than the Yongwang Mansion, and finally ended up in a position that is neither high nor low. , but it has the same effect as its owner.

A group of people surrounded Wei Yanxi and came to the main hall of the main courtyard.Before stepping through the door, a man and a woman came out hand in hand, and when they saw Wei Yanxi, they immediately bowed down and called out "Join the Prince".

"I have two daughters. This is the eldest daughter of the minister, Ji Hua. She married a few years ago. Her husband's family is the second son of the Minister of Rites. Today I heard that the prince is going to come to the house to pay a special visit."

Wen Changxu made timely introductions for Wen Jihua and her husband.When Qi Yaoqing sent someone that day, he specifically said that it would be best for the two cousins ​​to be there. Although Wen Changxu didn't understand the various reasons, he also knew that it would be great if the two daughters bumped into such a good thing as meeting the prince.

Let's not mention that the eldest daughter is married, but the younger daughter is still in her boudoir!If he can be favored by the prince through this action...

Wen Changxu's eyes slanted in the direction of Qi Yaoqing. The brothers are still clear about their accounts. Although his nephew is now married to the prince as his wife, he is a man no matter what. It must be inconvenient to manage the housework. Unable to conceive and have children for life, he did not believe that the prince could shut out all other women for him.

He had also heard before that Wei Yanxi took several concubines while marrying his first wife, but unfortunately he didn't hear the news beforehand, otherwise it would have been nice to send his youngest daughter in with Qi Yaoqing's relationship.After all, she is my cousin no matter what, so instead of being spoiled by other women, it's better to find someone who knows everything, right?
