Chapter 213: One Is Old, Why Are You so Affectionate?
Nan Baoyi's body was slightly stiff.
This Xue Dingwei is determined to tie his second elder brother to his boat through marriage!
She subconsciously looked at Xiao Yi.
Xiao Yi squeezed her hand, the corners of his lips raised, and his tone was indifferent: "Jiaojiao is the youngest girl in the family, marriage is a big deal, not a joke."
"Could it be that my Xue Dingwei's son is not worthy of her as a merchant girl?"
Nan Baoyi was making quick calculations in his heart.
Xue Dingwei is the governor of Zhenxi, a first-rank official, and also holds military power.
His second son is of course much stronger than Cheng De.
But if she married into the Xue family, it would be a betrayal of the sufferings she suffered in her previous life, and a betrayal of her second brother!
She will never marry into the Xue family!
Xiao Yi has been watching the changes in her expression.
After noticing the determination in the little girl's eyes, he said softly, "My family is Jiaojiao, with an arrogant heart, and I want to marry the best man in the world. He has a high position and authority, and he is both talented and beautiful. For a lifetime, a couple."
The voice fell to the ground, and the Nuan Pavilion was silent for a long time.
Xue Dingwei put down his pipe, stroked his palms and laughed loudly: "What a couple for a lifetime! It's a pity that the world is hard, and these wishes can only be thought about. Since Jingxihou has no intention of marrying my Xue family, I, as an elder, can't marry him." Don’t force it. In addition, I would like to warn Jingxihou that it may not be a good thing to climb too high when you are young, you have to be more careful, otherwise, the feeling of falling from the clouds to the mud will be unpleasant!”
The meaning of threat is beyond words.
Xiao Yi got up and bowed calmly, "Thank you for your instruction, Commander."
He led Nan Baoyi and left the Nuan Pavilion.
The two went to the painting building.
Xiao Yi asked: "Jiaojiao thinks, what about Xue Dingwei?"
Nan Baoyi thought for a while, and replied: "Looking at the approachability, I can't really tell the depth. He should be a man of ability. But I don't understand why he is afraid of two hundred thousand troops in Shu County. elder brother?"
"He's old." Xiao Yi said nonchalantly, "At the beginning of the attack on Yelang Kingdom, he should have personally led the troops, but he didn't dare. He was old, and he was afraid that he would die in the battle and lose the country he had fought in half his life, so Hand over the expedition order to Situ Lin."
Nan Baoyi suddenly realized.
The sleeping beauty behind the emerald screen appeared in her mind for no reason, and she couldn't help asking: "By the way, I was in the warm pavilion just now, and I saw behind the screen..."
Xiao Yi stretched out his index finger, and gently pressed it against her lips.
"Hush." He chuckled, "Dragon has reverse scales, and those who touch them will die. The Sleeping Beauty behind the screen is the reason Xue Dingwei is old. Its importance is like that of Jiaojiao to this Marquis."
Nan Baoyi was in a fog.
But without a doubt, that Sleeping Beauty is a very important person to Xue Dingwei.
You are so old, what kind of affection are you doing!
Xiao Yi watched her wrap up the gauze skirt and walk forward lightly.
He tilted his head and licked his index finger casually.
Because I touched Nan Jiaojiao's lips, I was stained with the fragrance of hibiscus...
Very sweet.
The painting building is brightly lit, and the hall is large enough to accommodate hundreds of people. There are low tables on both sides, the floor is covered with bright floor tiles, and the silver candle painting screen is beautiful like flowers.
In such formal banquet occasions, one has to take off one's shoes and enter.
Nan Baoyi changed into a pair of exquisite embroidered shoes, covered her socks with a fluffy skirt like clouds, followed Xiao Yi into the arena and took a seat.
The people in the hall couldn't help looking at them.
The well-known Marquis of Jingxi in Shu County, wearing a black cloak in leather, is a young talent, handsome and suave, with a casual and noble expression, but when he lowered his head and looked at the girl beside him, all the emotions in his narrow eyes turned into obsession. Finger soft.
Although the girl covered her face with a light veil, the pair of red phoenix eyes exposed outside were captivating and elegant, and her demeanor was full of delicacy. The posture of kneeling obediently next to Jingxihou was extraordinarily petite and cute.
The two looked at each other, and they were extremely right!
The hall couldn't help discussing:
"I never heard that Marquis Jingxi made a marriage contract. Who is this girl?"
"I heard it's Yulouchun's boss."
"How come the merchant girl is also invited?"
"You don't know yet? Yulouchun started Bai Xiaosheng's business and even took on the job of assassination. He has developed into a power in Jinguan City. It's easy to ask for an invitation!"
While talking, laughter came from outside the hall.
Nan Baoyi looked over.
The stars are holding the moon, and many noble ladies from the official family come here surrounded by a young girl.
That girl was white and tender, more plump and mellow than Zhuzhu, although she was beautiful, her posture was very arrogant, unexpectedly she walked in on this kind of occasion.
It is expected that it is probably the eldest lady of the Xue family, Xue Mei.
The girl walking on her left had a sweet smile, but she was Nan Yan.
In a short period of time, she has already established a good relationship with Xue Mei, and her communication skills are really good.
The girl walking on Xue Mei's right was delicate and thin, and she looked a little familiar.
Xiao Yi reminded: "She is the daughter of the military, Xia Minghui."
Nan Baoyi immediately remembered.
In the Xia family in Jinguan City, there is a distant relative who is a member of the military.
Because the official position of joining the military is not low, and he is an official of Xue Dudu's faction, so although the Xia family was rich and noble in the previous life, neither the Xue family nor the Cheng family touched it.
Xia Minghui, the daughter of the military, is famous for her intelligence.
She suddenly looked at Xiao Yi suspiciously: "Second Brother, how did you know her?"
Xiao Yi took a sip of tea.
The little girl asked this question, as if she was jealous.
He explained: "I have seen all the portraits of the rich and powerful in Shu County."
"Oh……"
Nan Baoyi lowered his eyelashes, somehow relieved.
Seeing corn juice on the table, she was about to fill Xiao Yi's glass when a shadow suddenly fell in front of her.
Xue Mei looked down at Xiao Yi seriously, "My father said that he wants to meet a husband for me. Presumably, you are the Marquis of Jingxi? The skin is pretty good, but I don't know what to do."
Nan Baoyi raised his eyebrows.
This girl is so reckless, the second elder brother clearly refused to marry, and she came here to pick and choose...
She was talking about it in her heart when Xue Mei looked at her again unexpectedly.
Xue Mei said sternly: "There is a large crowd, and traveling with prostitutes, although it is rumored that men are romantic, but it is not proper after all. Jingxihou, if you want to marry me, you have to be aware of being the favorite of the exclusive house. Traveling with prostitutes Don’t do this kind of thing again.”
After she finished speaking, without waiting for Xiao Yi to express her opinion, she returned to her seat arrogantly.
Nan Baoyi's small face under the veil was quite distorted.
No, who traveled with prostitutes? !
who is whore? !
Can't Miss Xue ask about the situation before she speaks?
So angry!
She was so angry, she took a big bowl casually, and poured a bowl full of corn juice.
"Drink!"
She crossed her arms.
Xiao Yi stared at a bowl of yellow Jiujiu stuff in front of him.
After a while, he raised his eyebrows, picked up the sea bowl, and drank it all in one gulp.
The corn juice poured by my little girl, I have to drink it even on my knees!
After everyone sat down, Xue Dingwei came over.
He sat in the upper seat, flicked his sleeves casually, signaling the beginning of the banquet.
