Chapter five hundred and seventy seventh: Goodbye beauty
The sound was crisp yet gentle. It fell into Wan He's ears, and it seemed to have a familiar smell. Immediately, Wan He turned his head and looked in the direction of the sound. Then, Wan He was
Stunned.
I saw four or five women in palace clothes standing in front of the servant. The leading woman was tall and wearing a pink long skirt and palace clothes. She looked like she was sixteen or seventeen years old. And this
The woman's appearance amazed Wan He, who had seen many beauties. Under a pair of dark eyebrows were a pair of eyes like bright moons. Her nose was high, her red lips were dripping, and the blush on her cheeks was illuminated by the red lantern next to her.
It looked even more red. And the touch of snow-white on her chest also looked more delicate because of the red light of the red lantern.
Wan He has been in this era for many years. During this period, he has seen all kinds of beauties. In terms of beauty, this woman is not as good as Concubine Wan Gui. In terms of appearance, she is not as good as Concubine Xiao.
In Wan He's eyes, she is slightly worse than Shen Xinyan. In terms of temperament, she is slightly inferior to Princess Yuerong. But in Wan He's eyes, this woman has a special kind of personality.
Her temperament is delicate and heroic. Her heroic spirit also contains a hint of pitiful weakness. People can't help but feel a desire to protect her.
Seeing this woman's appearance, Wan He actually forgot to take a breath. He stood up subconsciously and looked straight at her. He opened his mouth and started to mutter: "I have been searching for him for thousands of times. Suddenly I looked back. That person.
But in a dimly lit place."
In fact, as early as the beginning, the woman had already seen Wan He. And Wan He's straight eyes also made the woman feel ashamed and angry. And this woman was not an ordinary woman. She also knew that her appearance meant a lot to Wan He.
How attractive it is to a man. In fact, she didn't criticize the other party too harshly. Just when she was about to turn around and leave, she heard this sentence from Wan He. The woman was stunned immediately. This poem changed even more
She couldn't help but repeat it again. She seemed to be immersed in the artistic conception of this poem in an instant.
Wan He and the woman just stood there, staring at each other. But the servant next to him who was leading the way for Wan He was frightened. He immediately took a step forward and stood in front of Wan He. He stretched out his hand.
He pulled Wan He's clothes. Then he turned around and saluted the woman and said, "Return to the princess. His Royal Highness the Prince of Tang is discussing matters with the Crown Prince and the Fifth Young Master in the living room. His Highness ordered the villain to take Mr. Qian Que there.
Waiting in the study."
This time someone made such an intrusion, which made Wan He and the woman immediately recover. Wan He was okay. He had already developed a thicker skin than the corner of the city wall. But the woman couldn't.
Thinking that she and a strange man had been looking at each other for so long, the woman's face turned red. And this look, illuminated by the red lantern, was even more charming. Wan He looked at it again and again.
She was stunned for a moment. Faced with Wan He's burning gaze, the woman could no longer remain silent. She immediately turned around and left. She soon disappeared without a trace.
After the woman left, Wan He's eyes still stayed in the direction where the woman left. But the servant next to him glared at him angrily and called Wan He several times, but there was no response.
Immediately he raised his voice and shouted at Wan He: "Mr. Qian, we should go to the study."
"Ah. Oh. Oh." The servant's loud voice also made Wan He react. But his face still looked like he was lost. He followed the servant and took a few steps forward. Wan He was still there. I couldn't help it. I pulled the person and asked, "This little brother, just now, what was that..."
The servant glanced at Wan He. His face was full of pride. He raised his head and said, "That was our Princess Pingyang just now."
"Princess Pingyang." Wan He heard this answer and secretly remembered it in his heart. However, the handsome face from many years ago appeared in his mind. Of course, he was fully prepared for this visit to Chang'an. He remembered the information about many important people in Li Yuan's family. This Princess Pingyang was Li Yuan's only daughter. Of course he remembered it. And Wan He also knew that this Princess Pingyang was the same one back then. The pretty girl Li Xiuning who was at the gate of Changsun Mansion with Li Xuanba.
Wan He was silent in his heart. He didn't expect that woman to be Li Yuan's daughter. Doesn't that mean that he is also her enemy? More importantly, Wan He remembered that the information clearly stated that Li Xiuning was engaged to her husband. It was Chai Shao, the general manager of the Ma Army who had led Wan He into the Tang Palace. When he thought of this, Wan He suddenly felt an inexplicable sting in his heart. He felt even more hesitant. He just followed the man mechanically. Slowly. Move forward slowly.
Wan He was so lost at the moment. On the other side, Li Xiuning, who had just met Wan He, was not much better at the moment. At this moment, Li Xiuning had already trotted back to his wing and closed the door directly. Just lying on his fragrant couch, he gently touched his cheek with his jade hand. But he felt a coldness coming from the back of his hand. Thanks to this coldness, the heat on Li Xiuning's face was slightly relieved. Immediately afterwards, Li Xiuning's beautiful eyes slowly opened again. She turned over on the bed and looked up. The poem Wan He had just recited echoed in her mind.
"The crowd searched for him thousands of times. Suddenly I looked back. That person was in a dimly lit place. Suddenly I looked back. That person was in a dimly lit place." As he thought about it, Li Xiuning's cheeks turned red again. He had just left the room. After telling the fat man's name, Li Xiuning already knew who he was. Li Xiuning was no ordinary rich princess. When his father Li Yuan was in trouble a few years ago, Li Xiuning even disguised himself as a woman to support Li Yuan near Chang'an. He formed an army and made great contributions to Li Yuan's conquest of Chang'an. Therefore, Li Xiuning also had a powerful intelligence team in his hands. Naturally, he knew that he was short of money for such a big incident five days ago.
And the more this happened, the more Li Xiuning became curious about Qian Que. He was obviously a businessman with the smell of copper all over his body, but he was able to recite such profound words. Is this Qian Que really just a businessman?
Thinking of this, Li Xiuning immediately sat up. That exquisite and graceful body appeared to be extremely flexible. Li Xiuning had been practicing martial arts with her brother since she was a child. Her body was compared to those wealthy ladies who never left the house. Naturally, it was much better. After sitting up, Li Xiuning originally wanted to open his hand to call people in and send someone to carefully check the identity of Qian Que. But just as the jade hand stretched out, he paused again. Li Xiuning's A helpless smile appeared on her pretty face. She will get married at the beginning of next year. Although the Chai family is not a big family, it is still a branch of the Guanlong nobles. She also wants to be a wife. Now that you've realized it, it's better to stay less involved in this kind of thing from now on.
Thinking of this, Chai Shao appeared in Li Xiuning's mind again. If nothing unexpected happens, Chai Shao will become her husband and stay with her for the rest of her life. Li Xiuning also subconsciously felt a trace of hesitation in her heart. .Finally, he simply fell back and lay on the quilt behind him again.
To be fair, Chai Shao, whom his father arranged for him, was indeed a good match. He was from a good family background, talented, and considerate of himself. Entrusting him with his life was not a bad choice. At the beginning, I almost missed such a good husband due to misunderstanding. Now that I think about it, I am really lucky to be able to finally marry Chai Shao.
When she thought of that incident, Li Xiuning's heart suddenly started beating loudly. And it was beating faster and faster. In Li Xiuning's mind, a slightly pale but very handsome face appeared in Li Xiuning's mind. He had a playful smile on his face. When he found this smile suddenly appeared in his mind, Li Xiuning's face also turned pale. As if he had suddenly made a big mistake, he sat up suddenly. Then her beautiful eyes were also full of complicated feelings.
The smiling face that appeared in Li Xiuning's mind was that of Wan He, whom she had met several times. And since Li Xuanba's death, Li Xiuning, like his father and brother, had hated Wan He to the core. But as time went by, Li Xiuning slowly calmed down. Li Xiuning saw clearly how Li Xuanba died. It had nothing to do with Wan He at all. And Li Xiuning had done this countless times. He mentioned it to his father. But Li Yuan, who already regarded Wan He as his enemy, couldn't listen to Li Xiuning's words at all. Instead, he scolded Li Xiuning several times.
And every time he saw his father and brother cursing Wan He, Li Xiuning's heart was full of guilt. He even took all the blame on himself. If he could calm down at that time and explain this matter clearly to his father and brother, maybe. It would not have caused so many misunderstandings between his father, brother and Wan He. With this thought in his heart, Li Xiuning's guilt towards Wan He gradually changed. It seemed that every time he thought of Wan He's weird smiling face .Thinking of Wan He's weird words makes Li Xiuning's heart beat faster and her whole body feels warm.
Li Xiuning also knew very well that she had a strange feeling towards Wan He. At the same time, she also knew very well that she could not and should not have such feelings towards Wan He. However, how could it be said that people can control their thoughts? The more Li Xiuning suppressed her emotions, the stronger the strange feeling became. Today, she is completely unable to control herself.
Li Xiuning slowly stood up from the fragrant couch and walked to the window. She looked up at the waning moon in the sky. A drop of fragrant tears slowly slid over the smooth and delicate skin and dripped on the window.
