Chapter 179 Fireworks Trap 1
Xie was very dissatisfied with Xia Chuanyuan's attitude. He looked at Wei fiercely, but because Xia Chuanyuan had made a decision, it was difficult to say anything against it.
Xia Mengning smiled, stood up and walked to Xie and pretended to be concerned and asked, "Grandma, are you all right? I was scared to death just now."
Xie looked at Xia Mengning's expression. If it hadn't been for the previous contradictions, Xie would have really thought that Xia Mengning was a filial granddaughter, but now, Xie knew that Xia Mengning was just acting.
"It's okay. I've already applied the ointment. It's okay." Xie Shi said lightly.
Xia Mengning turned her head, looked at Wei, who was kneeling underneath, and said, "Grandma, don't blame the fifth aunt. Just now, the fifth sister was punished by her father and went to the ancestral hall to kneel down. It must be the fifth aunt who was worried about the situation of the fifth sister. That's why she was in a trance. In the final analysis, the mother is worried about the child. Don't blame the grandmother."
What he said made Xie feel extremely uncomfortable. Looking at Wei's expression, he was obviously unwilling. Is this complaining that he didn't save her daughter? Xie naturally thought of this, and the anger that had been suppressed came up again and looked at Wei fiercely.
Xia Mengning looked at their expressions and knew that she had achieved her goal. She smiled and said to Xia Chuanyuan, "Dad, my daughter has to go back to change her clothes and go to the banquet in the palace. Let's go out first."
Xia Chuanyuan nodded, and Xia Mengning retreated with Jiu'er.
Xia Mengning and Jiu'er returned to Zhuzhi Garden. Zhulian hurriedly greeted him and said, "Miss, your highness came to report that the prince is already waiting outside."
Xia Mengning nodded, "Make me up."
Because she wants to go to the palace, Xia Mengning can't dress casually and must dress more formally. Pearl Lotus brought water and carefully tidyed up Xia Mengning's makeup. Jiu'er brought a set of Mulan green double embroidered satin clothes to serve Xia Mengning. The bottom was matched with an emerald blue horse-faced skirt. The elegant color was neither flamboyant and did not lose her courtesy.
Zhulian was used to stay in the house to watch the house. Xia Mengning told Zhulian a few words, and then went out of the house with Jiu'er. The carriage sent by Changsun Yun had already stopped there. Hearing the sound, Changsun Yun walked out of the carriage, took Xia Mengning's hand with a smile, and walked into the carriage.
Jiu'er followed with a wink and walked to the palace.
Xia Mengning couldn't bear it. She took a stove from the carriage and handed it to Jiu'er for fear that she would freeze.
The carriage creaked forward. Because of the heavy snow for several days, there was still thick snow on the road. Xia Mengning listened to the sound of the car rolling across the snowdrift and suddenly narrowed her eyes.
Changsun Yun looked at her with great interest and asked with a smile, "What's wrong?"
Xia Mengning shook her head, "It's nothing. I just think it's very good now. There's nothing annoying and nothing big change. As long as you lean gently on the carriage and listen to the sound of the car rolling across the snowdrift, it's also particularly interesting."
Chang Sun Yun stretched out his hand and gently pinched Xia Mengning's cheek. He smiled and said, "I don't know what's in your little head. You can always say something unusual."
Xia Mengning smiled. The two laughed all the way to the palace. Because the weather was too cold, this was Changsun Yun's carriage. Xia Mengning did not stop at the gate of the palace as before, but went directly into the palace. When she got out of the car, she had stopped in front of the hall.
Changsun Yun helped Xia Mengning out of the carriage. There were many daughters and officials who were also invited beside him. It was not surprising to see Changsun Yun and Xia Mengning. After all, Changsun Yun was a celebrity in front of the emperor, and the emperor turned a blind eye to this move. Well, who is so weak to talk about it?
Xia Mengning wore a thick cloak, but accidentally slipped when she got out of the carriage. Fortunately, Changsun Yun stood underneath and stretched out his hand to hold her body firmly. The distance between the two was forced to approach. Because of the range of her movements, the felt hat on her head suddenly fell down, and the green silk like a cloud reflected a jade-like face. Yan appeared in front of Changsun Yun in this way.
Many people in the crowd have seen Xia Mengning, but at that time, Xia Mengning was only 13 years old. Although she was beautiful, she was still childish after all. Now in just half a year, Xia Mengning has already faded her childishness, and was replaced by a beautiful temperament. Under the two distant eyebrows, it was a pair of Qishui Qiutong, milky white skin is like a shelled egg, smooth and bright. For a while, many men present looked straight.
Changsun Yun naturally noticed these coveted eyes and reached out to put on Xia Mengning's felt hat. Then Changsun Yun turned around and looked at the people on the field, and the warning in his eyes was obvious.
Everyone hurriedly turned their heads and did not dare to offend the emperor's heart.
On the contrary, Xia Mengning covered her mouth and smiled, gently pulled Changsun Yun's sleeve. Changsun Yun lowered his head, and there was still unhappiness in his eyes, but he saw Xia Mengning smiling gently at him, and the sour taste disappeared in an instant.
Changsun Yun and Gao Xia Mengning looked at their heads, one looked up and smiled and the other looked down. Even the blind man could feel the strong friendship between the two.
Dongling Mo stood in the porch with his hands behind his back, looking at the two people with a little hurt in his eyes. Dongling Xingluo behind him obviously saw it. He couldn't help slamming his feet and gritted his teeth and said, "The shameless fox Meizi."
Dongling Mo turned his head and looked at Dongling Xingluo. His eyes seemed ordinary, but it made Dongling Xingluo close his mouth in an instant. Thinking of the emperor's promise to him tonight, Dongling Xingluo calmed down.
Dongling Mo walked to Xia Mengning and Changsun Yun with a blank face and said, "Can the son's body recover?"
With that, a pair of dark eyes looked at Xia Mengning. The almost crazy eyes almost made Xia Mengning unable to penetrate. She remembered the way Donglingmo was crazy about her a few days ago, and the words of confession. Xia Mengning squeezed her lips and didn't know how to face him.
Changsun Yun smiled, but his eyes swept Donglingmo's cheek fiercely, reached out and pulled Xia Mengning behind him, and blocked Xia Mengning's body and said, "The king of the Western Regions is thinking about it."
With that, regardless of Dongling Xingluo's affectionate eyes, he turned his head and took Xia Mengning's hand and said, "Go in. It's cold outside."
Xia Mengning nodded and walked into the hall with Changsun Yun. When she passed by Donglingmo, she was suddenly pulled by her arm.
The suppressed anger on Changsun Yun broke out in an instant, and his palm hit Donglingmo, but Donglingmo did not dodge. He was beaten by Changsun Yun's palm and retreated several steps, and the corners of his mouth overflowed with blood.
For the first time, Changsun Yun showed a cold and fierce expression on his unruly face. He looked coldly at the injured Donglingmo and said, "The last time I remind you, don't have any delusions about her."
Dong Lingmo stabilized his body, reached out to wipe off the blood from the corners of his mouth, and looked at Xia Mengning in a daze. That kind of crazy look made people shudder.
Changsun Yun turned around and led Xia Mengning to the hall. Xia Mengning followed Changsun Yun step by step, but did not look back.
The people next to him swarmed up to support Donglingmo, but Donglingmo stood up straight and smiled, "It's okay. Go in."
Step forward, and the hand hidden under the sleeve is tightly grasped. Changsun Yun, it's not that I can't compete with you, but you won her heart a day earlier than me.
Entering the hall, they all sat on the soft sedan chair carried by a special person and went up to the top floor. Xia Mengning sat on the soft sedan chair. Seeing that Changsun Yun's expression was still stuffy, she reached out and pinched him. Changsun Yun turned his head and reluctantly smiled at Xia Mengning.
The two did not say anything. When they arrived at the top floor of the appreciation building, they saw that the emperor and the queen had already arrived. The top floor was surrounded by strong wooden railings, and the place where everyone sat was also in the middle. Several seats near the window were specific, and only the emperor and the ministers in the court could sit.
Changsun Yun led Xia Mengning to a window seat and sat down. In an instant, many seats behind him had a lot more money.
After Xia Mengning sat down, she turned her head and looked at the eldest grandson Yun with a straight face, but the object of the stars was still angry and didn't notice it at all.
Many acquaintances gathered to talk. It was just a fireworks banquet. It was not so formal. Xia Mengning thought for a moment, quietly stretched out her hand from under the table and held Changsun Yun's sleeve.
Changsun Yun turned his head and looked at Xia Mengning with a black face. Xia Mengning frowned, biting the cherry lips slightly, and his big eyes were sparkling, with a pitiful look of praying, looking at Changsun Yun.
Even if he is a strange man, I'm afraid he can't help but feel soft when he sees this. Changsun Yun has never seen Xia Mengning's appearance. Now he is looked at so pitifully by Xia Mengning, his heart suddenly becomes extremely soft, and there is no trace of resentment.
"Don't be black-faced, okay?"
With a soft and glutinous voice, Changsun Yun even felt that he held his little hand and shook it gently. He was immediately heartbroken. He thought that he was angry with Donglingmo, but it made Ning'er worried. Changsun Yun hurried over and whispered, "Okay, I'm not angry with you."
Xia Meng Ning saw that Chang Sun Yun's face lines were soft, so she lowered her head and smiled lightly. The little pear vortex beside her cheeks loomed, and Chang Sun Yun couldn't help laughing.
Suddenly, someone shouted, "Fireworks are set off!"
Everyone stretched their necks and looked forward. Suddenly, an object rose in the dark night sky, and then a huge pattern bloomed in the sky.
This angle selected by Changsun Yun is excellent, which is the most suitable place to watch. The first fireworks are set off, followed by the second and third one. Xia Mengning looked at the colorful fireworks and couldn't help but bend her lips and smiled gently.
Changsun Yun turned his head and saw that his beloved was smiling. He couldn't help but turn around and wanted to get closer to her. Unexpectedly, at this time, Xia Mengning also turned her face to talk to him. The two came over at the same time and touched each other's lips.
Xia Mengning blushed. She hurriedly turned her head and lowered her head to cover her mouth with a veil, but Changsun Yun smiled. She clenched her fist and coughed gently on her lips. She turned sideways and said, "Ning'er took the initiative for the first time... I like it very much."
Xia Mengning stretched out her hand and twisted Changsun Yun's arm, but in exchange for Changsun Yun's deeper smile.
Everyone was watching the fireworks. No one noticed that the two were flirting here. A lonely figure hiding in the corner darkened his eyes slightly, carrying a big warm kettle, and walking in the direction of Changsun Yun and Xia Mengning.
