Chapter 140 Small Gathering

At the end of September, the weather became colder and colder. Xiahou Chen, the son of Anguo, led his troops back to the court. At the gate of the city, the eldest prince Li Chengyan led a hundred civil and military officials to meet him at the White Tiger Gate. Xia Houchen was dressed in ferocious armor, with a solemn expression and sharp eyes. The soldiers behind him are high in momentum and have a strong sense of killing.

The teahouses on both sides of the streets in the city are surrounded by pink.

Xiahouchen rode a tall horse, held his head high, and walked side by side with the eldest prince Li Chengyan, which was so magnificent. The warbler and Yan in the building couldn't help blushing and waving the handkerchief in his hand. He hoped that Xia Houchen could notice them and perhaps have the opportunity to marry into Anguo Houfu. Even if he was a concubine, he was willing.

Xia Houchen talked happily with the eldest prince, but he never focused on the ladies. It broke the hearts of these beautiful ladies. However, Xiahouchen is handsome and beautiful. He was born in a rich family, but now he has military achievements and is even more noble. Now it seems that he has a good relationship with the eldest son of the emperor. Today, I'm afraid I don't know how many officials want to send their daughters to the Marquis of Anguo.

"Chengqi, today I have given you enough face and come to welcome you in person. Your name of the prince of Anguo is even better than ever!" Li Chengyan couldn't help laughing and said.

"I have military achievements now. Even if it's out of etiquette, I should come to welcome me. Do you still want the emperor to come in person?" Xia Houchen's words are still very popular.

Li Chengyan was not angry, but just smiled, "Chengqi has now gone deep into the Xiongnu royal court and forced the Xiongnu Khan to move the royal court hundreds of miles to the west, which is naturally a great contribution. If your father really comes to greet you in person, I'm afraid you are not far from death.

"Hmm!" Xia Houchen snorted and stopped talking to Li Chengyan.

The prince of Anguo returned triumphantly, and the whole capital was boiling a lot. The fish had been staring at Sister Jiu's writing without blinking, but her heart was like a cat's paw. The whole house is talking about the return of the son of Anguo to Chang'an today. It is very lively. I heard that even the third sister's illness has improved a lot. But my ninth sister writes as usual. Is it better than Xiahou Chen's son?

The fish only entered Xue's house this year. Although she was a little older, she couldn't stand the excitement of others. When the ninth sister lacked maids, she served the ninth sister. Before entering Xue's house, the tooth woman told thousands of times that the ladies in the big house had a bad temper and had to follow them, but the ninth sister she served at home had no big temper. She felt that the ninth sister was really too weak, weaker than those common girls. She can't even get angry outside.

"Sister Jiu, how can you still write?" When Sister Jiu wrote a whole article, Yuer finally couldn't help asking.

The ninth sister looked at the fish sideways and said, "Why can't you write?" You have been here for some time, but have you ever seen me not write one day?

"Yu'er doesn't mean that. Yuer means that the son of Xiahou returned to the court today, and even the ninth sister went out to Baihumen to watch it. Why didn't you react at all?" Yuer waved her hand quickly, and her smiling face turned red. She was afraid that Sister Jiu would be angry.

Sister Jiu wrinkled her nose and muttered, "What's so beautiful? Isn't it two eyes and one nose? Is it possible that there are still three heads and six arms!"

He doesn't like Xia Houchen at all!

"But... many sisters in the house say that Xiahou's son is... long..." The fish's face was red, but she was too ashamed to speak.

Sister Jiu is dumb. Is it possible that Xia Houchen's charm is so great that even a 12-year-old girl who has never met is so fascinated that she can't find the direction.

"That man has broken sleeves!"

The fish's head stiffened, and all his illusions were suddenly shattered.

Broken sleeves? Is the rumor that Xiahou Shizi likes men really true? The fish stared in disbelief and broke his heart.

The ninth sister looked up and thought of her cousin Li Yi, "Well... Cousin and Xiahou's son are indeed a good match."

Yu's eyes widened again, and the person Xiahou's favorite person turned out to be the cousin? Oh, my God, how could this happen? Is the young master more beautiful than a woman? How can the prince of Xia like his cousin!

Looking at the fish's such a big reaction, the ninth sister shrugged her shoulders, "It's the son of Xiahou who is so beautiful that no woman can match him, so there is only a man!" The ninth sister said with a thief's smile, "You go out with me today to see if they are a good match!"

Ah?

The fish's head couldn't turn, but she saw Sister Jiu say, "Prepare a cloak for me. It's getting colder and colder recently. Let's leave the house later!"

With that, the ninth sister came out of the desk and let Jinxiu serve and wipe her hands again. The fish quickly put the cloak on the ninth sister.

Yu'er is the same age as the ninth sister. She is similar to the ninth sister. She is excited and respects brocade, painting fans and seals. The ninth sister is comfortable to use and is also liked by the people of Dongyuan.

It has already been agreed to go out for a small gathering. Today, Xiahouchen returned triumphantly. Li Yi, as a friend, will naturally take over Xiahouchen and invite other friends by the way. So, Sister Jiu also got the letter and followed.

It was the first time for Yuer to go out of the house with the ninth sister. She was very excited, and today she could see the son of Xiahou and the cousin, and she couldn't wait to see her immediately. When Jinxiu saw the fish jumping away like this, she gave a few words. Unfortunately, the fish was so good that she couldn't sit still. She looked east in the carriage, looked west, and opened the curtain again. Jinxiu couldn't help staring at the fish. The fish spit out his tongue and dared not be presumptuous anymore.

When she arrived at the Zuixian Tower, Xiao Er led her to the elegant seat upstairs. The private room is called "Lanyou Valley", which is really more like my cousin's temperament. When he lifted the curtain, he saw Liu Yuner sitting aside, and Yang Qian was talking about something with the tenth brother. Sister Jiu couldn't help but be stunned. Since the last time she went to the poetry meeting, she knew that Liu Yuner had a close relationship with her cousin. It should be here, but I didn't expect Yang Qian and Tenth Brother to be here.

Obviously, when she came in, everyone inside looked at her.

Yang Qian quickly got up and held his fists and saluted, "Xiaosheng has seen Sister Jiu!"

The ninth sister only looked at Yang Qian, but found that Yang Qian was like a modest gentleman, with a thoughtful scarf on his head, but not as decadent as Confucianism. Yang Qian's face was white and he stood quietly.

The ninth sister quickly returned the blessing: "The ninth sister has met Mr. Yang."

Now that Yang Qian is a supervisor, he can't be compared with the past. It's not too much to call him "Ms. Yang".

A trace of panic flashed in Yang Qian's eyes, "I dare not. I didn't dare to accept the gift of the ninth sister because of my ninth sister's achievements."

Sister Jiu secretly said that this person was really good. At the beginning, she just said a few words to Yang Qian on a whim. Yang Qian actually remembered her kindness. No wonder such a righteous person can also walk with her cousin. Although Yang Qian's family was poor, he was also proud, so Li Yi also thought that Yang Qian was a like-minded person.

The tenth brother stood up and gave up his seat, "Ninth sister, sit with Sister Liu!"

The ninth sister wrinkled her nose, and the tenth brother was only eleven or twelve years old. How could he come here to party? She really can't figure out how the tenth brother can be here.

The tenth brother smiled and obviously saw the doubts of the ninth sister and said, "I came to eat with Brother Li. What's more, it's all big brothers and sisters here, and they are about the same age as me!"

Obviously, the tenth brother knows that the ninth sister will also come here.

At this time, Li Yi lifted the curtain and came in, with a warm smile on his face, "I'm afraid Chengqi will be able to get rid of himself in a while. Let's use some snacks first and punish him for drinking when he comes--

"Who said he would punish me?" Before Li Yi finished speaking, another voice answered.

It's not Xiahouchen and which one!

Xia Houchen raised his chin slightly, as if he were looking down at everyone here, with a joking smile on his lips. Although I saw everyone, I didn't say hello to everyone. If you are not familiar with him, you will definitely think that this person is so arrogant that even his nose has gone up to the sky. However, even if the ninth sister met Xiahouchen several times, she still thought that Xiahouchen was such a person.

"Chengqi, you are late and let so many people wait for you!" Li Yi didn't feel uncomfortable and smiled.

Xia Houchen went to the table, picked up the glass and drank it, and poured two cups in a row. "This should also be punished. Can we have a banquet? My stomach is full of water now!"

His eyes slipped over Sister Jiu's body, but inadvertently saw the emerald green bracelet on Sister Jiu's wrist, which was green and crisp.
