Chapter Eighteen: Banquet 18 (The ex-husband is not particular about it)
Xie Yuanniang looked at Gu Tingzhi indifferently. She looked up to this guy with a high opinion of him and even refused to be a gentleman.
Pooh.
Darkness secretly spitted.
Gu Tingzhi also looked at Xie Yuanniang, his eyes unwavering.
Xie Yuanniang's expression remained unchanged. Gu Tingzhi wanted to see her make a fool of himself, but she ignored him. Instead, she turned around and looked at Prince Song in a shocked manner. "Before I finished speaking, the Prince worshiped me. I just refuted Sister Yang's words, but I did not admit that I am Mr. Lan Jin."
This face... is too thick.
No, it's too shameless!
Although everyone knew Xie Yuanniang could defend herself, she felt speechless when she said this, and the contempt in her eyes became deeper.
A trace of regret flashed in Gu Tingzhi's eyes, and he thought of something, so he suppressed the guilty look.
Prince Song's face froze.
It's like swallowing something disgusting, wanting to vomit but can't.
Xie Yuanniang saw it and felt so relieved. She continued, "To be honest, Mr. Lan Jin is the master of his family, and I am the only one who is a closed disciple."
"How is this possible?" Song Nanrong was thrust one after another, and her heart was up and down. She had worn out her temperament. She had lost her airs when she was a jealous young lady in a small family. "Xie Er, you just said you were a lay Buddhist Lan Jin. You were identified by Mr. Gu and changed your words immediately. Whatever you said is, do you think everyone will trust you again?"
"Did I just say that I am a lay Buddhist Lan Jin?" Xie Yuanniang looked at everyone, and everyone said nothing. Although they did not admit it personally, what they did was already guiding everyone. She was a lay Buddhist Lan Jin. Xie Yuanniang's eyes finally fell on Gu Tingzhi, "Young Master Gu, did I say it just now?"
"No." Gu Tingzhi pursed his lips.
Gu Tingzhi felt like he was forced to help the other party get rid of his guilt for the first time in his life.
It tastes not very good.
Xie Yuanniang felt happy, Gu Tingzhi's emotions were not revealed, and pursing his lips tightly means that he was angry. Today, this guy jumped out of his own and angered the turtle son to death.
On the face, Xie Yuanniang looked at Song Nanrong calmly, "Look, Mr. Gu also said that I have never said it. The county lord must have misunderstood with everyone. As for how I prove that I am a disciple of Mr. Lan Jin, my master's private seal is naturally proved. Everyone knows that Mr. Lan Jin's private seal is an ancient text and seal engraving method. I can't find a second person who can engrave seals in the Taiyuan Dynasty. What I said is correct?"
This is indeed the case.
Gu Tingzhi's face was already very bad, and he looked at Xie Yuanniang with a sharp look.
Seals are easy to engrave, and the seal carving method that can be truly passed down and can be used now is the Sanqiao School and the Xueyu School. Not to mention the material, even the structure and layout are unique. The seal carving method of ancient texts has been lost, and what can be left behind is naturally something that is difficult to find in the world.
This is also why Mr. Lan Jin’s paintings are precious, even the private seals on them are extremely precious.
When Xie Yuanniang dared to use this as a proof, no one had any doubts. The one who raised objections before was Gu Tingzhi. At this time, everyone saw Gu Tingzhi's brows furrowed deeply, and no one dared to speak again because he was tactful.
Prince Song made a fool of himself many times, and she became more and more excited and wanted to suppress Xie Er's first move. "It was originally a game made by a new game, but I didn't expect that there would be unexpected gains. It can be seen that Mr. Lan Jin loved Sister Xie's literary talent very much, and he accepted Sister Xie as his disciple. Today, everyone rashly wanted to read Mr. Lan Jin's private seal, but there was something wrong with me. I'll just forget about this matter. But Sister Xie is a disciple of Mr. Lan Jin. I wonder if it is convenient for everyone to visit one or two, or if there is a token for Sister Xie?"
Prince Song seemed to give in, but in fact he pressed forward step by step, and offered two conditions, but only by choosing the first condition could everyone truly believe that she is a disciple of Mr. Lan Jin. As for the last one, it was not convincing to take out the token.
The benefits were in front of us. Everyone was naturally excited when they thought of taking the opportunity to see Mr. Lan Jin. They were not showing off their faces, and no one stood up to accuse Prince Song of doing this for being too difficult.
Gu Tingzhi stood aside with a slender figure, not knowing what he was thinking, so he didn't speak anymore.
Xie Yuanniang had a lot of knowledge about the ugly appearance of these aristocratic families in her previous life. She would never understand it in this life, but she would not let it be controlled. She stared at Prince Song with a smile, "Master doesn't like being disturbed. As for the token, there are private seals that the master personally carved for me, and I can take them out for everyone to see in the future."
"The private seal of seal carving in ancient texts? I don't know if the seal carving is the name of Miss Xie Er?" The man in a brown Taoist robe among the male guest asked.
He looks handsome and has clear eyes like a lake. When he looks at you, he can feel calming down.
Xie Yuanniang greeted him, "It was the word 'Xie Er'."
......Xie Er!
This is too casual, and it is still used to imitate seals in ancient texts.
It always gives people the feeling of being slapped by a pig.
The man in brown Taoist robe was shocked when he heard this, then clasped his fists and did not speak again.
It was precisely because he suddenly asked, which also blocked the idea that Prince Song was still entangled. It was originally the apricot blossom banquet in the county prince's mansion that was amazing, but suddenly it popped up that Xie Yuanniang was a disciple of Lan Jin, and took away the glory of today's apricot blossom banquet.
Song Nanrong gritted her teeth jealously. In the past, when Xie Er came to the Prince's Mansion, he begged her to go to the study to read the paintings of Mr. Lan Jin, which also became a great satire.
Suddenly, her eyes flashed and she pulled Xie Yuanniang's hand with a little concern, "Xie Er, you are full of everyone for so long. If there is no today's incident, I'm afraid everyone will not know."
First, he spoke happily, and then sighed slowly, "But I can understand your mood today. Did you hear that Lord Xie was demoted to the fifth-rank chief? Even I was shocked when I heard that, don't worry too much. No matter what, Lord Xie is still in Zongren's Mansion, and we can still meet together from time to time in the future."
The disciples of Mr. Lan Jin, let alone the sudden change of attitude of the Nanrong County Lord, even the elders present should look up to Xie Yuanniang at a high glance, but what does the next sentence mean?
Lord Xie was demoted? Or was he demoted to the fifth grade?
If it weren't for an important mistake, how could it be the main person who was from the second grade to the fifth grade?
All present were from noble families and were most sensitive to such matters. At this time, even though he was a disciple of Lan Jin, his eyes looked at Xie Yuanniang.
Xie Yuanniang had long expected that Song Nanrong would jump to the wall to do this trick, and she had been preparing for this moment since she entered the banquet. When she met at this moment in her previous life, she blushed and accused Song Nanrong of talking nonsense. Then she was refuted by Song Nanrong and fled in panic, so that she made people laugh at her for being arrogant, arrogant and unqualified, and her reputation plummeted.
How much hatred was for the consequences of this moment in my previous life? At this time, Xie Yuanniang held back a lot of energy. In the previous life, she blushed and was calm at Mount Tai, but her eyes were sharp. "What is the county lord talking about? Yuanniang doesn't understand. Can you explain it in detail?"
Song Nanrong looked shocked, "Don't you know?"
