Chapter 134 The Last Look
After all, it was only Brother Gui's first birthday, so most of the guests invited this time were ladies and ladies, and everyone wanted to have fun, so although it was not very grand, there was laughter everywhere.
The ones coming from the Shen family were Mrs. Shen and Cheng Xiumei. Shen Qiujun naturally couldn't come because he was busy with his work, but Shen Xijun was too old, so he only came with gifts.
Li Yaoqin didn't believe that Shen Qiujun really knew how to practice Qing Dynasty. She was not a real lady of the Qi Dynasty. How could she stand up to that? And today was a good opportunity to appear in front of everyone, so she didn't expect that she didn't come.
He seems to be a person with character. Because of his discord with Shen Lijun, he doesn't help her at all. This is a modern person who truly dares to love and hate.
Li Yaoqin wanted to be such a good person, so she took a peek, watched the crowd and asked Mrs. Shen, "Why didn't Sister Shen come? It seems that her merits will be fulfilled in the future."
Mrs. Shen smiled and said: "It's still a little while away, it will take a while, but even though I can't go out, it doesn't prevent me from seeing my relatives and friends at home."
Mrs. Shen invited Li Yaoqin to play in Shen's mansion again, and Li Yaoqin agreed vaguely with a smile.
On such an occasion, no matter how noble a woman is, she still wants to eat the fireworks of the world. When gathering together, it is natural that the parents of the east and the west are short, and then there are clothes, jewelry, etc. Li Yaoqin listened for a while and saw that everyone was chatting in a lively manner, so she took advantage of it. No one noticed and walked out quietly.
Yun Shang waited for the girl to see her, and quietly followed her to wait on her.
Regarding the Prince Xian's Mansion, Li Yaoqin could walk around it even with her eyes closed, so she walked calmly and leisurely, admiring the flowers and willows along the way, and slowly taking in the beautiful scenery of the Prince's Mansion.
The servants of the palace saw it. Seeing her like this, they didn't care at all. They just stepped forward to remind her where the second door was to prevent her from accidentally walking there and being interrupted by people in the outer courtyard.
Li Yaoqin smiled and thanked her, and continued to enjoy the scenery slowly. She walked to a place and asked the girls to wait for her for a while. She would come back as soon as she left.
Yun Shang and others hurriedly said: "Young lady has a rich body. If there is any inconvenience or injustice, I can't help but let the maids follow me to serve."
Li Yaoqin smiled and said: "I want to take a winding path to explore the secluded area. This will be interesting. Just wait here."
After saying that, Li Yaoqin walked away quietly, zigzagging to a small courtyard at the corner of the second gate.
Today is Brother Gui's birthday. The wise king will never go out. He will definitely be reading and painting here.
Li Yaoqin walked to the winter jasmine bushes next to a rockery, and looked at the small study from a distance through the flower trees that had just sprouted. But she happened to see the wise king standing there.
Li Yaoqin couldn't help but look at him. In her previous life, this small study was filled with warm memories of the two of them.
It's a pity that because of her unauthorized changes, she ended up in the fate she has now. She knew that she had some regrets, and she also hated God for why he allowed her to be reborn, but then separated them. If they were to be separated, why would they let herself be separated? Memories of past lives remain.
But the matter has come to this, what's the use of regretting. Shen Lijun is not Shen Qiujun. If she really intervened forcibly, she would have become the mistress of later generations. Although she became the concubine of the wise king, in this era when men have three wives and four concubines, the concubine The concubine is also the wife of the wise king, not a mistress. Moreover, she and the wise king were actually married in the previous life, although it was only for a short day. However, she still respects the first wife from the bottom of her heart and does not want to go there. Destroy it.
While Li Yaoqin was thinking wildly, he saw a woman dressed in gorgeous clothes walking towards the study room with a small plate filled with paint.
Li Yaoqin took a closer look and saw that it was the Wang family. She was used to looking for such clever men, but the wise king always paid attention to principles in doing things. It was clear and sunny, and it was the birthday of his only legitimate son. Naturally, he would not be fascinated by women.
If you do something scandalous, and Wang goes to this outer courtyard again, you will definitely be scolded by the wise king.
Sure enough, not long after, Mrs. Wang was seen running out with a handkerchief covering her face, followed closely by the little girls, who disappeared without a trace for a while.
Li Yaoqin couldn't help but laugh, but she didn't know that at this moment the King Xian was standing in front of the window with his hands behind his back. Unexpectedly, he looked out and saw Li Yaoqin smiling brightly among the rockery flowers.
The Xian Wang thought he was dazzled and blinked his eyes hard. When he saw that she was still standing there like an orchid in an empty valley, he couldn't help but feel overjoyed and strode over.
Li Yaoqin couldn't help but panic when she saw King Xian walking towards her.
She just wanted to see him again this time, say goodbye to the past completely, and start a new life of her own, but she didn't expect to face him face to face.
As the wise king got closer and closer, Li Yaoqin's heart gradually calmed down. To others, he was a high and mighty prince, but to herself, he was just a familiar stranger. But if the two of them stood together,
It's like a lover's tryst among the rockery flowers. It's not appropriate to be seen.
Li Yaoqin took two steps forward and saluted, "I have met the prince."
But she never dared to raise her head and look at the person who was so tender and affectionate to her in her previous life. She was afraid that she would not be able to control it.
Seeing Li Yaoqin's slightly panicked expression, the Xian Wang couldn't help feeling pity, and asked softly: "This is outside the second gate, why did you come here?"
Li Yaoqin replied: "There were so many people in front and I was so noisy that I wanted to find a quiet place, but unexpectedly I got separated from the girls unknowingly and ended up here instead."
The wise king smiled and said: "This is not a place for women in the boudoir. I will send you to the second door."
Li Yaoqin didn't dare to do this. Not to mention being with him, she felt inexplicably sad. After this trip alone, her reputation was ruined. Thinking of this, she hurriedly smiled and said: "I don't dare to trouble the prince. Why don't you bother me?"
Please send a girl to send me there."
The wise king smiled heartily and said: "I only have boys but no girls here."
Li Yaoqin hurriedly said: "Please ask the prince to show the way for the little girl. I can walk back."
The wise king did not expect that this little girl was stubborn, but maybe it was because of her stubborn temper that she was allowed to do such chaste things.
The wise king put away his distracting thoughts and carefully pointed out the route to Li Yaoqin.
At this time, Li Yaoqin had to raise her head to look at the Xian Wang, and saw the pair of eyes that she had been obsessed with in her previous life looking at her with a smile. She couldn't help but hurriedly lowered her head and whispered: "Little girl, I have already remembered it.
Thank you, Your Majesty."
The wise king looked at her eyes that were as moving as a frightened deer, and now he saw her running away like a little rabbit. He suddenly found it interesting and couldn't help but laugh.
Li Yaoqin felt aggrieved as she walked. He had been so loving to her in the past life, but in this life he had forgotten all about it and left her alone to feel sad. That relationship had become useless. She couldn't bear to throw it away, but she had to throw it away.
Just when she was feeling sad, she accidentally bumped into someone. She panicked and kept saying, "I'm sorry."
But the man stretched out his hand to support her and said with a smile: "Why is this little girl so panicked?"
Li Yaoqin couldn't help but her heart moved. She looked up and saw that it was indeed Lin Jingzhou. For some reason, she felt even more aggrieved. She couldn't help but have red eyes and said, "I was just enjoying the scenery and didn't pay attention to the route. I didn't know why I ended up here. Look around." There is no one around, so it’s inevitable to be a little scared.”
Lin Jingzhou couldn't help but laugh. Even though she made such a move that shocked the world, she was still just a little girl. He smiled and said, "What's there to be afraid of? I'll send you there."
Li Yaoqin hurriedly shook her head and said, "Just show me the way. I can go back by myself."
Lin Jingzhou knew that with such a disciplined nature, she would not allow him to lead her, so he pointed the way with a smile.
Li Yaoqin thanked her and walked back to the inner courtyard smoothly.
Yun Shang and the other girls were waiting impatiently. Seeing that Li Yaoqin had finally come back, she couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief and followed her back to the table.
Although Shen Lijun focused on her son and had to entertain all the ladies, this palace was the territory she had managed for many years, so she naturally had eyes and ears. She knew immediately about Wang's secret meeting with the wise king, and As for Li Yaoqin's matter, Shen Lijun got the news as she sat down at the table and chatted for a few words.
Shen Lijun didn't expect that Li Yaoqin was actually a traitor, and when she saw everyone's praise for her at the table, she couldn't help but grit her teeth with anger. She was originally thinking of how to deal with her, but suddenly she felt blessed: Why not take advantage of the situation and take advantage of the situation? By bringing her into the palace, she can win over the civil servants in the court, and Li Yishu also has some abilities, and she, a daughter of an uncle's house, came to be a concubine. For others, it is already a bit pricey, but for her, a chaste and fierce woman, it is even more important. It's a very disgraceful thing, and she can also be used to suppress Wang's arrogance.
No wonder Shen Lijun hates the Wang family so much. When she married the Wang family, Shen Lijun was not willing to find a stunning girl, so she invited several girls from the Wang family to come to the palace as guests, and finally chose a girl with a delicate appearance and a gentle personality. Come on, she didn't think she would say it outright, everyone said taking a concubine was beautiful, and doing so would leave a scandal to others, so she just gave Mrs. Wang a little hint.
Unexpectedly, the shameless Wang family took advantage of the good king to go to the Wang family to do business, recommended herself as a pillow, and finally entered the palace. And because she had not chosen her at the beginning, she worked hard to antagonize her. Such a result. Making things is naturally not worth taking action on your own, and Wen is an obedient person, so now he can only find someone else to kill with a borrowed knife.
Li Yaoqin's actions today made Shen Lijun initially choose her. Anyway, she is not itchy if there are too many lice. She didn't have any concubines before, so she took one back for the first time. She felt sour in her heart. Now she can't wait to get more. Once Yu Xian comes, This will help Wang in his career, and secondly, by letting them fight together, he will also benefit.
When Shen Lijun thought about it, her eyes suddenly opened up. By praising Li Yaoqin, she held her tight, with deep appreciation and love in her words.
Li Yaoqin was a little flattered at first. She didn't know if Shen Lijun had taken the wrong medicine, but suddenly her attitude towards her changed drastically. Later, she began to understand, was she declaring her right of possession?
Thinking of this, Li Yaoqin's heart couldn't help but sink.
