Chapter 42 Preparing for the Birthday Banquet
Those who came together were actually meditating.
"Sister, I don't know what you have prepared for the birthday party, so I want to come here to advise."
Chen Qingyun knew that she came here to inquire about the news, and did not hide it. She said bluntly that if she needed to perform, she would go on stage to play the piano.
A trace of unknown meaning flashed in the eyes of meditating.
Obviously, she would find a way to suppress Chen Qingyun. After all, she was trained as a Kyoto noble girl since she was a child. Who is not better than Chen Qingyun's halfway?
"Sister, then what clothes have you prepared? I want to see it too." Perhaps because I thought that I could finally be proud at the Queen Mother's birthday party, my thoughtful tone was a bit light.
The clothes were all delivered, so there was no need to hide them. Chen Qingyun asked the maid to take up the skirt she had customized before.
For lightness, most of the skirts are made of interwoven silk, with a green straight-necked double-breasted shirt, with a chest-length skirt with gradient flowers underneath, and a red embroidered double-breasted wide-sleeved shirt on the outer cover. The ribbon is decorated with garland patterns, which are soft and elegant, and the color is bright.
Chen Sisi let out a scream: "Sister, you must be rich and beautiful in your clothes, and you will definitely be more beautiful than the beauty."
She was happy and even more happy. In her opinion, Chen Qingyun dressed in childish and cute on weekdays, but Yuxue was beautiful, but how could a child suppress such a bright red? Even if the clothes look good, people will only look very vulgar and are incomparable to her.
Chen Qingyun didn't say much, checked the completeness of the clothes and let Yicui take them in.
Mindful thoughts may be because I was satisfied with the inquiry, or maybe I saw that Chen Qingyun didn’t pay much attention to him, so I left happily.
"Miss, will this set of clothes be too beautiful?" Yicui asked with some concern.
"It's okay, since it's a birthday party, you can wear it more festively." Chen Qingyun smiled, with another plan in her heart.
She could guess that Chen Sisi would definitely choose the simple and fairy-like style, and wanted to compare her to a dull and rustic look.
But it is still unclear who is the real foil.
When Mr. Xu heard that the clothes were delivered, he also came to take a look and it turned out to be such a warm red color.
Then, a different light flashed in her eyes. It seemed that her students were about to shine their own light in this banquet.
She likes Chen Qingyun, and always feels that she seems to see her former self, even if she is dark and has a bleak future, she must move forward firmly.
"Qingyun, are you nervous?" asked Mr. Xu.
"No." Chen Qingyun smiled and shook her head. She wanted to take this opportunity to show herself in front of others and let the people in Kyoto know that there is a legitimate lady in Duke Chen's mansion, named Chen Qingyun.
Perhaps, from then on, many things will change drastically.
If she could become famous at the birthday party, not only would her previous impression be greatly improved, but it would also make it easier for her to go further in the future. She would rectify those who jumped, whether it was the old lady or Shen Zhifeng, Chen Sisi or Yue Niang, step by step.
Mr. Xu was very pleased to see Chen Qingyun's fearless appearance on the spot.
When she first came, she still had confusion and anxiety in her eyes, occasionally with darkness and sadness, but now, the brilliance in her eyes is enough to make people move.
Mr. Xu suddenly had a hunch that perhaps this woman who came from the countryside would eventually reach a height that she could not reach.
The two looked at each other and smiled. The tacit understanding during this period made them feel unnecessary. Mr. Xu nodded and left.
Only then did Pearl come forward: "Miss, the cold wind is coming."
Chen Qingyun was stunned. It was too long, and sometimes she almost forgot that there was a cold wind that was recovering from the wounds.
This is also good. Han Yu is sometimes really hard-working.
"Call him to see me in the room."
Pearl nodded, entered the inner room with Chen Qingyun, and then dismissed the maid inside.
Yicui looked at Zhenzhu with some envy. Although Zhenzhu came from behind, she was very pampered and trusted by the lady. The lady only asked Zhenzhu to do many things. She looked back at the closed door in her heart, pursed her lips, and went to do her own business.
Inside the house, I heard that everyone outside had walked away. In just a moment, Han Yu and Han Feng knelt in front of Chen Qingyun.
"Cold wind, can your injuries be cured?" Chen Qingyun asked.
"Yes, thank you for your concern." Han Feng's voice was obviously deeper than Han Yu's, and the breath he revealed was more stable.
"I believe you have heard Han Feng tell you about the situation here, so I won't go into details. As I said before, since I bought you, it will take one year. If you don't want to be my secret guard again in a year, you can leave on your own."
Suddenly flashed in Han Feng's eyes, but he did not show it, but solemnly thanked Chen Qingyun again.
Strictly speaking, Chen Qingyun saved him his life and did not repay him at this moment. Even if he saw that his specialness and Han Yu were special, it would only be a one-year deadline.
Such a way of dealing with things and tone of speaking are completely different from those noble ladies who are precious and delicate.
Chen Qingyun was also very satisfied with Han Feng's respectful attitude. She knew that even if these two people really left, she would not be able to stop them. However, if they were such ungrateful people, she would not want to stay, and she would just treat them as a good deed.
"I know Han Yu is very good at martial arts, and I don't know what you are good at."
"Han Yu is very skilled in light, keen and intelligent, and good at hiding, suitable for evaluating information. However, I am more skilled in martial arts, flexible hidden weapons, and understand some simple poisoning. In the next year, Han Yu and I will definitely guard the safety of Miss."
Han Yu quickly looked up at Han Feng, then lowered his head.
A dark light slid across Chen Qingyun's eyes.
She understood that Han Yu was suitable for inquiries, while Han Feng was more suitable for killing people, and the two brothers were united.
But according to the meaning of the cold wind, I believe that I will leave once a year.
It doesn't matter, and she didn't think she would ask them to be her secret guards for the rest of her life. A year later, she had other ways to find the right person.
But she was really interested in this poisoning.
"You can use poison, which kind of poison?"
Seeing Chen Qingyun's excited look, Han Feng's heart skipped a beat.
"Reporting to the lady, they are all simple poisons, pills, or some colorless and odorless that damage the human body."
Chen Qingyun nodded, eager to try: "Do you have it now?"
Han Feng nodded and took out a pack of medicine powder.
"Miss, please see, this kind of drug is commonly used by me. It is usually carried with me. It has little impact on ordinary people, but it will cause people with martial arts to become weak."
Is it really that magical?
Chen Qingyun smelled it herself, but there was no odor or reaction. She jokingly sprinkled in front of Han Yu.
"Miss!"
