The young man who appeared out of nowhere was quite blind, but Lu Qipei and Qi Yang finally left with him. The reason is very simple. Liu Chen did not come here alone today. He was accompanied by several colleagues from the Hanlin Academy.
Lu Qipei has no interest in dealing with colleagues during the break. But the other party has seen her and made an invitation like Liu Chen, who is ignorant, so there is not much room for her to refuse - after all, her situation in the Hanlin Academy has just improved, and she doesn't want to be here. It's time to offend people for little things. And they really can't find an open space, don't they
With a little apology, Lu Qipei said to Qi Yang, "It's getting late, we also need a place to eat."
Qi Yang didn't mind, and she also cared about Lu Qipei's situation in the Hanlin Academy, so she went to see her getting along with her colleagues. So they did not refuse, and the three of them went back to the open space that Liu Chen and others had occupied a long time ago.
The two sides greeted each other, and Lu Qipei glanced at him and found that there was no difficult person present, and he was a little relieved. But then again, Liu Chen is new to the Hanlin Academy, except for some good-natured people, who would sell his face to make an appointment
They are all rare and good people from the Hanlin Academy, and no one will embarrass Lu Qipei. Even after disturbing people on a date without a wink before, this group of people is a little embarrassed when they see Qi Yang. However, most of them were much older than Lu Xiuzhuan, and the little discomfort was quickly forgotten, and they greeted the young fiancée warmly again.
Someone else asked curiously: "Lu Xiuzhuan is so young, has he already decided to get married?"
Lu Qipei smiled a little shyly, she looked at Qi Yang, and thoughtfully replied, "It was decided recently."
Wasn't it set recently? She didn't even know that she already had a fiancée for half an hour. But she didn't want to deny Qi Yang's words. The only thing she worried about was that there were too many variables in her life. The marriage after Qionglin's banquet was gone, and she didn't know when she would be able to enter the emperor's eyes
Someone next to him picked up the conversation and joked: "That's a pity, I watched Lu Xiuzhuan as a talent, and I wanted to introduce my sister to you. Now that Lu Xiuzhuan has a beautiful woman on his side, I missed the opportunity. ."
This is really a joke, after all, Lu Qipei is on duty in the Hanlin Academy every day, but no one has ever said such a thing to her. But at this moment, it was obviously a joke, but after hearing it, she turned back to look at Qi Yang nervously.
Qi Yang smiled calmly, and Her Royal Highness was obviously not worried that his concubine would be taken away. What's more, in terms of Lu Qipei's dullness, even if someone really introduced the girl to her, I'm afraid it's either she kept it at a distance, or the girl couldn't stand the choice and gave up - as for blind marriage, it's even more impossible, who would let her see it. It is a female consort with a gauze hood covering Chanjuan!
However, seeing Lu Qipei's nervous turn back, everyone laughed, and at this time someone suddenly said: "There were rumors in the Hanlin Academy a few days ago that Princess Qiyang's car was parked outside the Hanlin Academy for a few days, It was written by Lu Xiu. I thought there was going to be a concubine in the Hanlin Academy, but now it seems that it is just a rumor.”
Hearing this, Lu Qipei didn't react yet, but Qi Yang smiled first. Many people saw her sudden smile, but they didn't understand what she was smiling at
Of course, Her Royal Highness did not intend to explain the confusion to everyone, let alone reveal her identity.
This "inexplicable" smile finally broke the original topic and made everyone realize that it is not appropriate to make such a joke in front of other people's fiancées. So someone quickly made a haha, changed the subject, and stopped talking about Lu Qipei.
There were also people who looked at each other in dismay, not knowing how the topic fell on other people's private affairs? He also dared to discuss the current princess!
But no matter what these colleagues thought, Lu Qipei who got rid of the ridicule was still relieved. She turned her head and smiled apologetically at Qi Yang, and then instructed the servants to take out the food that she brought, which was always placed all over the floor.
This lunch was not a pleasant one, because there were many unrelated people around. But this lunch was not too hard to swallow, because those rash colleagues finally did not bother the two young people anymore.
It's not the first time that Lu Qipei has eaten with Qi Yang, but perhaps because of the change in her mentality and relationship, she became a lot more affectionate this time. Although helping to prepare vegetables and the like are trivial things, she still enjoys doing it, and Qi Yang also accepts all the dishes she has added - there is nothing to be embarrassed about, because Lu Qipei is all her favorite dishes for her. dishes.
Mingming's meals are prepared according to the preferences of the two people, why can she find the dishes she likes so accurately? Could it be that she had secretly paid attention to herself before this
This is the most reasonable guess, and this guess makes Qi Yang in a good mood, and even the little unpleasantness before has disappeared.
The interaction between the young couple is not much, but anyone with eyes can see that they get along very well... Liu Chen finally withdrew his exploratory gaze and started gossiping with his colleagues in front of him.
The gathering of this group of people in the Hanlin Academy is actually quite grounded. They don't get together to talk about cultivating sentiments such as poetry and songs, as outsiders think. On the contrary, everyone has gossip, and they prefer to get together and talk about gossip. For example, the gossip between Lu Qipei and Princess Qiyang spread like this, and even before the two parties showed up, there were people talking about it.
But now when Lu Qipei and Lord Xiao Lu's fiancée meet, it's hard to talk about this topic. It is obviously quite embarrassing and mindless to discuss people's right and wrong in person, and looking at the love between the two, it seems that there is no need to guess any more. So when the topic changed, it landed on the No. 2 champion who was still on his way to visit his relatives, and the Shuji examination that would take place in a while.
Lu Qipei was not interested in participating in the topic, he took care of Qi Yang's food and drink, and no one bothered them.
After lunch, Lu Qipei and Qi Yang finally freed themselves from the atmosphere where they only saw each other. The two of them didn't want to leave here, and they didn't want to participate in the topic, so they held the tea cup together and listened to the gossip.
At this time, the content of everyone's gossip is no longer the second place in the top spot, the topic runs fast, and somehow runs out of the country...
Mr. Tang with a moustache started to speak, and started a conversation: "Everyone knows, the court received a report of the Northern Xinjiang battle a few days ago. It is said that Rong and Di have changed again, and they have already sent troops on the border."
Lord Zhou, who was already full of wrinkles, said the second one: "This happened a few days ago, who doesn't know? And when has the northern border settled down? There is a fight every once in a while, what's so strange? ?" Then he lowered his voice and added: "A few years ago, I finally won a victory, but I haven't been stable for a few years. Isn't it all said that General Ji raises pirates with self-respect, so what if we don't fight?!"
Some people nodded when they heard it, while others were noncommittal. It was just a rumor anyway.
However, someone still said a fair word: "Anyway, General Ji guarding the northern border is also hard work. And this time is different. It used to be a small fight. This time Chen Bing's border, I'm afraid there will be chaos. ."
The topic then turned to the war, but for the literati of the Hanlin Academy, it was just talk on paper. And no one has been to the northern Xinjiang, so it is always a little false to talk about the war in the northern Xinjiang, so the topic soon returned to gossip.
This time they were talking about Rong Di: "I heard that a hero has appeared in the north in the past two years, and he has integrated a lot of forces. Now it seems that he is about to establish a country?"
Someone sneered: "What kind of hero is it? It's just a lucky one. He got a counselor, and he only gained a place among the barbarians in the grasslands by relying on people to assist and plan." , I have to make that advisor the prime minister, so I don’t know whether the king of Khan will have the final say or the prime minister will have the final say in the grasslands?”
As soon as this statement came out, many people laughed. Perhaps for the erudite scholars of the Hanlin Academy, they despised the so-called counselor from the northern grasslands. They admit that the prairie people are physically strong and capable of fighting, but when it comes to the brain, there is really nothing to say.
He couldn't take it seriously, and he talked about gossip again, saying that the counselor was drawn over by King Khan, and maybe his daughter was assigned to him, and so on.
After Lu Qipei and Qi Yang listened for a while, they felt a little boring. In addition, he has stayed here for a long time, and finally stood up and said goodbye to everyone. This time, no one ignorantly continued to disturb the young man's date, not to mention that the two of them stayed just by borrowing a place to eat and did not participate in the topic, so they said goodbye enthusiastically.
This party is really a bit... I don't know what it is? !
Fortunately, the date was not disturbed much, and they had lunch smoothly. Lu Qipei and Qi Yang were still in good spirits.
The two went down the river, and the water was full of pink petals. Lu Qipei tried to break off a peach blossom and gave it to Qiyang, but now the flowers are in full bloom, and they can still be seen on the branch. When he touched them, the fluttering petals fell, and finally there were only residual flowers on the branch.
Seeing her discouraged, Qi Yang couldn't help but smile, raised his hand to take a fallen peach blossom from the shoulder of his sweetheart, and put it away as a souvenir of today's outing. Then she leaned slightly, leaning halfway on Lu Qipei's body, and resting her chin on the other's shoulder: "Apei is born so handsome, there are always people thinking about it outside, how can you say this is good?"
Lu Qipei stood up straight, only to feel a breath in his ears, and his heart skipped a beat. After hearing Qi Yang's words, she was a little confused: "Your Highness, that's a joke, how can you take it seriously?!"
Qi Yang looked at her earlobes that were starting to turn red and moved a little, and muttered, "What if I take it seriously?"
The little princess has the right to be willful. Lu Qipei turned his head to look at her, with a little helplessness and doting in his eyes: "Then what His Highness wants of me, I will listen to His Highness?"
Qi Yang didn't say what to do, because she took the opportunity to kiss him. It's a pity that the position is a little off, and the kiss falls on the corner of the lips.
