Maybe it was because she realized that her aggressive attitude made most of the Yanbei girls unhappy, Yan Ningshuang showed her demeanor this time, and let Ren Yaoqi ask the question first, and she answered the source.
Ren Yaoqi also wanted to try the depth of this Miss Yan, and without rejecting it, he thought about it for a while, and said, "The expectations of future generations are nothing to be missed. Farmers and workers have acquired food and clothing for men and women. People are rich, officials and deacons... "
Before Ren Yaoqi finished speaking, Yan Ningshuang interrupted: "It's from "The Biography of Emperor Mu." She glanced at Ren Yaoqi and bent the corner of her mouth, "It's your turn. There is a golden platform in the sea. Qiao Li, exhausted with magic, Hengguang Yanzhu, Yan Yao Xinghan.' Where did this sentence come from?"
Ren Yaoqi also answered quickly: "From "Netherworld Records"."
Yan Ningshuang was a little surprised. "The Netherworld" was a novel, she didn't expect Ren Yaoqi to read it too.
Next, the two of you came to me to come up with their own questions. In order to explore Yan Ningshuang's background, Ren Yaoqi selected various books such as history books, Ming Jing, travel notes, geography and so on. To Ren Yaoqi's surprise, Yan Ningshuang can even tell the source. Although she took some common books, it is very good that Yan Ningshuang can read and remember them all at her age. No wonder Yan Ningshuang dares to talk to her. test.
Yan Ningshuang has the purpose of winning Ren Yaoqi. She even studied the astronomical calendar, medical books and pharmacopoeia, Buddhist scriptures, Taoism and other books. But Yan Ningshuang was shocked that no matter how biased the source of the sentence she said, Ren Yaoqi could really answer it. Because of her unforgettable ability, she memorized all the books in her study room. Whether she can understand her is secondary. She doesn't believe that Yaoqi has the same ability as her! But the two stood face to face, and Ren Yaoqi obviously had no way to take chances.
The two of them come and go, but the people below watch them with relish. Except for the three adults, there are all women here. Ren Yaoqi and Yan Ningshuang have some book titles that they have never even heard of, but these two people can say it into chapters, and they can recite a paragraph or a sentence at will.
The reason why Ren Yaoqi and Yan Ningshuang were able to answer each other's questions was because the collection of books in both Pei Zhiyan's study and Yan's study basically included most of the books circulating on the market. Especially Pei Zhiyan's study. Many people decorate their study rooms according to Pei Di Shi's collection of books. Unless it is some rare rare book, it is easy to refuse to show it.
Seeing that it was noon, the two still did not decide the winner, and neither could stun the other. The princess looked at the sky and discussed with Madam Xu: "Can you think of a way to decide the winner faster?"
Pei Zhiyan, who was sitting beside him, heard their conversation, and said leisurely, "I have a way to make them write quickly to decide the winner."
The princess smiled and said, "Mr. Pei, if you have any ideas, why don't you talk about it?"
Ren Yaoqi and Yan Ningshuang also looked at Pei Zhiyan when they heard the words.
Pei Zhiyan smiled slightly, and asked Ren Yaoqi and Yan Ningshuang: "Both of the two young ladies are familiar with "Qiuyang Miscellaneous"?"
Just now, Yan Ningshuang said a sentence in "The Miscellaneous Comments on Qiuyang" for Ren Yaoqi to guess, so Pei Zhiyan asked this question. This book "Qiuyang Miscellaneous" is not a masterpiece, just some essays about customs and geography, calligraphy, painting, song and dance, flowers, birds, fish and insects written by an old scholar in the previous dynasty.
Ren Yaoqi said: "I can't say that I am familiar with it. I have read it a little."
Yan Ningshuang glanced at Ren Yaoqi: "I also looked at it briefly."
Pei Zhiyan nodded. He smiled and said, "That's just fair. I asked a question about this book. How about whoever answers it wins?"
Pei Zhiyan looked at Ren Yaoqi. It was Yan Ningshuang's question before, and Miss Yan took the initiative. So strictly speaking, Ren Yaoqi suffered a loss. The other two adults and the aunt sent by the queen mother felt that they had no opinion.
Ren Yaoqi didn't care when he heard the words, he bowed his head and said respectfully, "I have no opinion."
Although Yan Ningshuang on the surface took advantage, there was no joy on Yan Ningshuang's face, and her head was already sweating. Originally thought that if he read a lot of books, he would definitely be able to easily outperform Ren Yaoqi, but he didn't want to be as powerful as Ren Yaoqi. Now Pei Zhiyan said that the question will be asked, although she believes that Pei Zhiyan will not help Ren Yaoqi to plot against her, but Yan Ningshuang is still a little cautious about things that are not guaranteed to win.
Now she is the only person sent by the Queen Mother. She can't lose to Ren Yaoqi, otherwise there is no way to deal with the queen mother, and she will not be able to raise her head in the Yan family in the future.
But Miss Yan wanted to think about it, but the people around her didn't give her a chance to think about it. After all, everyone was a little hungry after sitting here for a long time. The maids sent by the empress dowagers were afraid that Yanbei Wangfu and Ren Yaoqi would regret it. Busy helping Yan Ningshuang to answer.
Pei Zhiyan leaned back on the back of the chair, tilted his head and pondered for a moment, and then asked, "Wei Xiucai once went to a place called Tiger's Au by the locals. What are the staple foods that the villagers in Tiger's Au eat in winter?"
Yan Ningshuang was stunned when she heard the words, thought about it carefully, and then said: "Master Pei, this is not mentioned in "Qiuyang Miscellaneous"."
Pei Zhiyan smiled sympathetically: "Miss Yan sure? Where's Miss Ren?"
Ren Yaoqi stood there with a strange expression on her face, a scene she was all too familiar with.
"Miss Ren?" Seeing that Ren Yaoqi didn't speak, Pei Zhiyan called her again.
Ren Yaoqi coughed lightly and said, "It's sweet potatoes and woks."
Pei Zhiyan raised his eyebrows, the smile in his eyes dizzy, nodded, and praised: "Not bad."
Yan Ningshuang's face changed, and she distinguished: "The Autumn and Yang Miscellaneous Stories does not mention the winter staple food of the villagers in Tiger Ao."
Pei Zhiyan looked at Ren Yaoqi and said with a smile, "Miss Ren, what do you think?"
Ren Yaoqi suddenly wanted to laugh, but she still replied seriously: "The miscellaneous note about "Tiger's Au" really didn't mention it, but the same book wrote about "Yuyang Mountain" in Ziyang, a neighboring county. In that article, it was said that Wei Xiucai and his friends met a woodcutter during the Double Ninth Festival.
Pei Zhiyan looked at Yan Ningshuang again: "Miss Yan?"
Yan Ningshuang bit her lip, her face was pale and her eyes were red.
The grandmother on the side quickly said: "Master Pei, should you ask another question? The two young ladies are not ready yet."
Pei Zhiyan glanced at the grandmother with a half-smile but not a smile, lowered her head and drank tea without saying a word.
Someone below laughed: "Yeah, it's better to ask something Miss Yan knows that Miss Ren doesn't know, so that the "two young ladies" are ready."
This time, the mama couldn't hold her face anymore, but it was in Yanbei. Even if she is the queen mother, these swindlers will not sell her account.
On the other hand, Ren Yaoqi was very authentic: "Master Pei will ask another question." Otherwise, she would always have a feeling of going home and complaining and calling the adults to bully Yan Ningshuang, which is really not very kind.
Seeing what Ren Yaoqi said, Pei Zhiyan said, "Let's ask another question." He looked at Yan Ningshuang and asked with a smile, "Have you both read "The Collection of Mysteries" and "The Chronicle of Yinchuan County"?"
These two books are also what Yan Ningshuang asked Ren Yaoqi before. Anyway, from the bright side, Pei Zhiyan still takes good care of Yan Ningshuang.
Ren Yaoqi nodded, and Yan Ningshuang also nodded.
Pei Zhiyan said in a soothing voice: "In "The Collection of Legendary Monsters", it is mentioned that there is a sea-monster with a bird's head and a snake's body with fleshy wings. More than a hundred people migrated from Minchuan County to Yuyang County in the summer of the 22nd year of Guangyuan. How long will it take?"
Yet another strange question. Yan Ningshuang estimated the distance from Yuyang County, Minchuan County, in her heart. Although the Kraken has fleshy wings, according to the records in the book, it needs to forage for food before it can fly for too long, and it moves slowly. If you convert it, it will take more than a month. But Yan Ningshuang didn't dare to say this answer casually, she couldn't help but glance at Ren Yaoqi.
There was no superfluous expression on Ren Yaoqi's face, and he couldn't tell whether he knew the answer or didn't know the answer.
Seeing that Yan Ningshuang hesitated, Pei Zhiyan added leisurely: "If the two of you have the same answer, then the one who gave the correct answer first wins."
Ren Yaoqi was about to speak when Yan Ningshuang hurriedly said, "It will probably take more than a month."
Pei Zhiyan was noncommittal and looked at Ren Yaoqi again.
Ren Yaoqi said: "They can't reach Yuyang anymore. It is recorded in the Annals of Yinchuan County that began in the late spring of the 22nd year of Guangyuan, Dazhou. A large-scale plague occurred near Lizhou, and both Minchuan and Yuyang counties were in In the hardest-hit area, there are ten rooms and nine empty spaces, and it is hard to see living people."
Pei Zhiyan laughed and nodded. Said "good". Then, regardless of the grandmother who was beside him, she gave him a hard wink, and stood up and left the table.
The blood on Yan Ningshuang's face quickly faded, and she didn't believe that she would lose to Ren Yaoqi. There were faint laughter from the audience, Yan Ningshuang felt that these voices were mocking her, and the words she started to say to Ren Yaoqi now seemed to be hitting her in the face.
Ren Yaoqi saw Yan Ningshuang's dismayed look, and didn't say anything to her, and went back to his seat. The ten ladies of the imperial court have all appeared one by one. Although there are still many ladies in Yanbei who have yet to appear, everyone knows that the highlight of this year's daughter-in-law banquet has passed.
Ren Yaoqi almost single-handedly defeated the ten ladies sent by the Queen Mother, and won very beautifully, not only won face for Yanbei Wangfu, but also other ladies in Yanbei are also honored. Ren Yaoqi made a big splash this time and became famous in Yanbei. Although there are many people who are envious of her, most people in Yanbei would rather Ren Yaoqi win than Yan Ningshuang and the others.
The princess was in a good mood today, and after speaking a few scenes, she was ready to leave the stage. After taking a break from lunch, the Qianjin Banquet will continue, but Ren Yaoqi's task has been successfully completed. She breathed a sigh of relief when she got off the stage.
When the princess saw it, she couldn't help but smiled and praised: "It's really beautiful to win today."
Xiao Jinglin also said on the side: "I thought the people who were carefully selected by the queen mother were amazing."
Ren Yaoqi was a little embarrassed, remembering that Xiao Jinglin hid a bowl from someone else's girl before, she couldn't help but ask, "You can do tricks too?"
Xiao Jinglin curved the corners of her mouth: "What kind of trick, it's just a quick action."
Ren Yaoqi asked curiously, "Then where did you hide other people's bowls?" The little girls were crying angrily.
Xiao Jinglin coughed lightly, leaned over and whispered, "When I waved my sleeves, my hands loosened, the bowl fell on the upper of the shoe, and I hid it under my skirt."
Ren Yaoqi couldn't help laughing out loud, but Xiao Jinglin was a little embarrassed by her laughter.
They were originally going to go back to Lanyue Pavilion with the princess for dinner, but they didn't want to go back to Lanyue Pavilion. Concubine Yun's maid came over, and Concubine Yun invited Ren Yaoqi and Xiao Jinglin to go to her Feiwu Pavilion for lunch.
After Concubine Yun's people left, Xiao Jinglin looked at Ren Yaoqi and frowned: "If you stay, I'll go over by myself. I'll just say you're uncomfortable." Xiao Jinglin also saw it last time, too, Mrs. Yun The concubine doesn't like Ren Yaoqi, especially when that happened yesterday, who knows if her grandmother will take Ren Yaoqi out of her breath
Ren Yaoqi also knew that Concubine Yun didn't like her, so she was not sure why Concubine Yun would invite her over for dinner, but Concubine Yun was an elder after all, and an elder who had opinions on her. Ren Yaoqi didn't want to. It's too much against her, after all, there is not much conflict between the two, and there is no conflict of interest. To live in harmony is to live in harmony. There can be neither harmony nor hostility.
Ren Yaoqi thought about it. I still asked the princess.
The princess thought for a while and said, "Since the concubine asked you to come over for dinner, you should go over there."
Seeing that the princess also said the same, Ren Yaoqi changed his clothes. Went to Feiwu Pavilion with Xiao Jinglin.
Concubine Yun was still sitting on the Luohan bed in the second room, her face was still cold. When Ren Yaoqi and Xiao Jinglin went to greet her, she nodded and let them sit down.
As last time, the atmosphere was somewhat silent.
Concubine Yun instructed her maid, "It's time to set the meal."
While waiting for the meal, Concubine Yun finally spoke after drinking a few sips of tea: "Have you read a lot of books?"
Ren Yaoqi glanced at Concubine Yun, not knowing what she meant by her question, so she could only answer safely: "I have read some books in my father's study."
Concubine Yun nodded: "I have a good memory."
Ren Yaoqi blinked, wondering if Concubine Yun meant to praise her. He could only smile, but didn't know how to answer.
Concubine Yun seemed to see that Ren Yaoqi was cautious in front of her, and didn't want to ask any more questions. So the three of them started drinking tea one by one.
Fortunately, the meal was ready soon, and Concubine Yun took them to their seats. There were only the three of them eating, but the dishes were filled with a table of the Eight Immortals.
Concubine Yun doesn't like to talk. The maid behind her smiled and said, "Does the county lord look at today's dishes?"
Xiao Jinglin nodded and said, "Most of them are what I like to eat."
The maid smiled and said, "This is what the Empress Dowager ordered herself to do."
Xiao Jinglin was a little surprised, and then quickly said, "Thank you, grandma."
Concubine Yun nodded and didn't say anything. She just grabbed an eggplant box and signaled that Xiao Jinglin and Ren Yaoqi could move their chopsticks.
The maid should be used to serving by Concubine Yun, with a very amiable smile on her face, and said to Ren Yaoqi: "What kind of dishes does Miss Ren like, you can tell the servants later, the servants are good to remember. Come down. When you come to the concubine for dinner next time, the servant will ask the cook to make something you like."
Ren Yaoqi was almost flattered when he heard this.
The maid's words are obviously showing her closeness. She is the confidant maid of Concubine Yun, that is to express her closeness on behalf of Concubine Yun.
Ren Yaoqi glanced at Concubine Yun, who was silent, and replied carefully: "I'm not picky about food, I like everything the county master likes."
The maid smiled sweetly when she heard the words, and came forward to help her with a bowl of soup.
During the meal, Concubine Yun didn't say a few words from beginning to end, Ren Yaoqi and Xiao Jinglin didn't talk much, and the three of them finished the meal in silence.
After lunch, the maids waited on them to wash their hands, rinse their mouths, and then serve tea.
Concubine Yun didn't tell them to leave, so they continued to sit with Concubine Yun to drink tea in the second room.
When the tea was almost finished, Concubine Yun suddenly said, "Go and get the things."
The maid withdrew in response, and came out holding a pair of red lacquer carved boxes in a short while.
"Give each of them one." Concubine Yun whispered.
So Ren Yaoqi put a six-inch square red lacquer carved box inlaid with cloisonne in his hand, and he was a little heavy at the beginning.
Ren Yaoqi glanced at Xiao Jinglin, and with an inquiring look, Xiao Jinglin shook her head at her, saying that she didn't know what was going on.
The maid smiled and said, "The county master and Miss Ren open it up and take a look."
When Ren Yaoqi and Xiao Jinglin heard the words, they opened the box in their hands. Ren Yaoqi looked down and was stunned. There were some heads and jewelry in the box. A gem set on a golden step is in excellent condition.
"Grandma is this?" Xiao Jinglin asked, raising her eyebrows.
Concubine Yun said: "I don't need it, you can wear it."
Ren Yaoqi is really going to be flattered now, she almost thought that it was just her illusion that Concubine Yun didn't want to see her before.
Concubine Yun paused for a while, and then said, "I know you don't lack these, but it is always the wishes of the elders. You can accept them."
Xiao Jinglin looked at Concubine Yun, then at Ren Yaoqi, then smiled and accepted the box: "Thank you grandmother."
Ren Yaoqi only accepted the box that Concubine Yun gave her: "Thank you Concubine."
Concubine Yun nodded and sat silently for a while. She waved her hand and said, "You guys go down and rest, you are tired today. Tell the princess, I won't be going in the afternoon."
Xiao Jinglin and Ren Yaoqi responded, then got up and backed out.
After leaving Feiwu Pavilion for a long time, Xiao Jinglin and Ren Yaoqi looked at each other, and then returned to Lanyue Pavilion in silence.
The two took the jewelry box given by the concubine to the concubine's place together.
The princess opened their jewelry boxes and took a look. He said lightly, "Just keep it for you."
Xiao Jinglin saw that there were no outsiders in the house. The words were very straightforward: "Mother. Didn't grandma dislike Yao Qi? What happened today?"
It is true that Concubine Yun gave her jewelry. After all, she was her own grandmother. Although her attitude was relatively cold on weekdays, she also gave her something during the festivals. Not bad for her. But the last time we met, it was obvious that Concubine Yun had an opinion on Ren Yaoqi. How did the attitude change so quickly
The princess didn't answer Xiao Jinglin's words directly, she thought for a while, then turned to look at Ren Yaoqi: "What do you think of Yaoqi?"
Ren Yaoqi looked at the princess and felt a little embarrassed. After all, she was not from the Xiao family, and the princess and Concubine Yun were the mother-in-law and nephew.
The princess smiled: "There are no outsiders here, you can say whatever comes to your mind, and no one will blame you if you are wrong."
Ren Yaoqi asked tentatively, "Is it because of what happened yesterday?"
The princess smiled and nodded: "You are a smart child. So accept it with peace of mind."
Ren Yaoqi glanced at the princess. Nodding, no more talking.
Xiao Jinglin was about to ask, when Sister Xin came in, as if she had something to report to the princess, Ren Yaoqi and Xiao Jinglin had to go out first.
The two returned to the room. Xiao Jinglin asked Ren Yaoqi, "You just said that your grandmother's attitude changed because of what happened yesterday?"
Ren Yaoqi nodded, handed the jewelry box to the maid to put away, then pulled Xiao Jinglin to sit by the kang: "If it wasn't Yun Qiuchen and Yun Wenfang yesterday, but someone from another family, Yanbei Wangfu How will you deal with them?"
Xiao Jinglin thought for a while: "It's hard to say whether I can save my life."
"Then why are Yun Qiuchen and Yun Wenfang okay?" Ren Yaoqi asked with raised eyebrows.
Xiao Jinglin understood at once: "Naturally it is because of my grandmother's protection."
Seeing that Xiao Jinglin understood, Ren Yaoqi stopped talking.
Concubine Yun protected Yun Qiuchen and Yun Wenfang, and let them return to the Yun family unscathed, and did not hold the Yun family accountable. Naturally, there was a compromise from the Yanbei Palace.
Concubine Yun understood in her heart, so she also sold the princess and Xiao Jingxi the same face. So today Concubine Yun helped her out again, told her to go to dinner, and brought a box of jewelry over, in fact, because she was wronged by the princess and Xiao Jingxi.
Even though she knew that Concubine Yun did not do this because she had changed her mind, Ren Yaoqi was not disgusted by Concubine Yun's behavior.
As the biological mother of King Yanbei, the mother-in-law of the princess, and the grandmother of Xiao Jingxi, Taifei Yun did not feel that everything she did was taken for granted. At least she knew that it was her fault after she had done something to cover up her mother's family. , know to find ways to remedy compensation. There are too many people in this world who like to rely on their status and age to do whatever they want. In comparison, Concubine Yun is more understandable.
As for whether Concubine Yun likes her or not, Ren Yaoqi does not insist. There is no way for any one person to be all-encompassing to be liked by everyone. It is good to be able to respect each other.
After the noon break, the afternoon banquet continued.
It's just that the afternoon is much cooler than the lively morning.
Neither the old princess nor Concubine Yun was present. Yan Ningshuang and Zhao Yingqiu didn't show up either. I heard that they were tired in the morning and rested in the yard.
Although Ren Yaoqi was still with Mrs. Xu and the others, from the afternoon, only Yanbei's girls appeared, and no one named "Mr. Ren" for guidance. Compared with the morning, Ren Yaoqi had a very leisurely afternoon.
After the day's golden banquet was over, a few of Yanbei's young ladies ran over to find Ren Yaoqi and said they wanted to see the silly girl.
What Ren Yaoqi didn't know was that since the mighty appearance of silly girl last night, the entire hot spring villa was full of legends about silly girls. Although these young ladies have a natural fear of beasts, there are also many people who are curious, especially Yesterday, the mighty-looking tiger saw Ren Yaoqi and acted obediently like a cat, making those who saw it very envious.
The princess smiled and said, "You can take them to see it. But remember to stay away and don't hurt anyone."
The concubine also wanted Ren Yaoqi to get acquainted with these young ladies born in a wealthy family in Yanbei, and it would be convenient to socialize after marrying into the Yanbei palace.
The princess has spoken, and Ren Yaoqi naturally agreed.
So Ren Yaoqi and Xiao Jinglin took some daring girls to Qizhen Garden.
These girls are more lively in temperament, chatting and chatting along the way.
Someone even deliberately flattered Ren Yaoqi and said, "Miss Ren, you are really amazing. All those people sent by the imperial court have their eyes above the top, and they all bowed to you in the end."
"Yeah, especially the young lady surnamed Yan, relying on the people of her queen mother's family to speak arrogantly, thinking that she is really talented! In the end, Mr. Pei tried it out and tried it out. Like her I've read books all my life. In the end, I can't even pass the exam as a scholar!"
This lady has a good family background. young. She has a straight temper. When Yan Ningshuang competed with Ren Yaoqi before, she was the stage where she dismantled Yan Ningshuang sentence by sentence, and she was not afraid of offending people.
Although Ren Yaoqi didn't like Yan Ningshuang, he was not willing to make irresponsible remarks behind his back, so he could not help frowning. Just as he was about to remind these ladies who had gone too far to pay attention to their words, someone next to them coughed heavily.
Ren Yaoqi looked up and saw Yan Ningshuang standing under a tree on a fork in the road not far ahead, looking at them with an ugly face, presumably she had just heard the two young ladies arranging her words.
These Yanbei ladies were also a little embarrassed.
Yan Ningshuang didn't look at anyone else, just stared at Ren Yaoqi coldly for a moment, then turned away without saying a word.
Xiao Jinglin glanced at Ren Yaoqi and whispered, "It seems that she has put this account on you."
Ren Yaoqi smiled helplessly, and whispered, "She doesn't like me without this."
Seeing this, the young lady who had been chatting all the time asked curiously, "What are the princess and Miss Ren talking about?"
Xiao Jinglin glanced at her expressionlessly: "Do you want to listen to the solution after talking ill of people behind the discussion and being bumped into on the spot?"
The little girl blushed. Sticking out his tongue, he didn't dare to speak.
Yan Ningshuang walked in front of them, and when they were about to reach Qizhen Garden, she saw that Yan Ningshuang was also coming towards Qizhen Garden, especially the maid who followed her also carried a food box in her hand.
When everyone saw it, they couldn't help but be a little curious, what was Yan Ningshuang doing
After Xiao Jinglin entered the garden, she found someone to come over. Ask them where silly girl is now.
"If you go back to the county master, the son just took the silly girl to take a bath." The old woman in the yard quickly replied.
Xiao Jingxi is also there? Xiao Jinglin raised her eyebrows and looked at Ren Yaoqi.
The young ladies who followed behind also whispered, Second Young Master Xiao has always been a dragon, and many people have not even seen his true face, let alone contact, and they can't help but feel a little curious. .
However, Xiao Jinglin obviously did not intend to satisfy the curiosity of these people. She nodded and instructed the old lady: "In the pavilion in front of us, after the silly girl has finished taking a bath, you can ask someone to bring her over."
The mother-in-law hurriedly took the order.
Xiao Jinglin took Ren Yaoqi and took the dozen or so little girls to the pavilion in the Qizhen Garden.
Ren Yaoqi glanced in the direction where Yan Ningshuang left, Xiao Jinglin noticed it and whispered beside her: "Don't worry, even if she wants to find someone, she will definitely not be able to get there, this garden is full of guards. If so She can still find Xiao Jingxi, that only means... Xiao Jingxi wants to see her!"
Ren Yaoqi: "..."
They didn't wait too long, and soon the silly girl came, and it was certain that Xiao Jingxi didn't want to see Yan Ningshuang, because Xiao Jingxi and the silly girl appeared together.
These young ladies were all scared and screamed by the beast that suddenly jumped out and the frightening roar of the beast, but they were stunned when they saw the man who appeared behind the white tiger. Forgot to run away.
Xiao Jingxi bent over slightly and patted the silly girl on the head in time to stop the white tiger who wanted to pounce with Huan'er. The handsome man with black hair and black hair stood together with the majestic white tiger. This picture made the women present couldn't help blushing and heartbeat. Even the originally ferocious and dangerous beasts had no deterrent effect.
Xiao Jinglin coughed lightly. The eerie silence was interrupted.
When the ladies came back to their senses, they all blushed and bowed their heads, curtseying. Although no one has mentioned who this man looks like, some people already have the answer in their hearts.
Xiao Jingxi nodded to them.
Xiao Jinglin took Ren Yaoqi and walked over, and the silly girl immediately stretched her head over to rub them.
"Did you just take it to take a bath?" Xiao Jinglin asked.
Xiao Jingxi said, "You came before you could wash yourself."
The silly girl sat there wagging her tail happily, and the incumbent was very happy that she had just escaped the bath.
Among those young ladies, there were bold ones. Seeing that the silly girl was very obedient, they walked over, curiously wanting to follow Xiao Jinglin's way and rubbing the silly girl's head, not wanting that the white tiger who was just as well-behaved as a kitten suddenly stood up. He got up and showed his pointed tiger teeth towards the young lady who reached out to it. There was a low roar that shook the ground. The lady was so frightened that she screamed and fell to the ground on the spot.
Ren Yaoqi hurriedly asked someone to help the young lady up. Xiao Jinglin patted the silly girl who showed off her majesty.
"Silly girl doesn't let others touch her head. If you don't touch it, it won't hurt you." Xiao Jinglin glanced at the young lady and explained something to silly girl.
A tiger's head is as untouchable as a tiger's butt, and being a tiger is also dignified!
Xiao Jinglin took the silly girl to play her favorite flywheel game in the garden. Those young ladies followed the novel, but did not dare to get too close, and some people glanced at the second son of Xiao secretly while looking at the tiger.
Xiao Jingxi and Ren Yaoqi didn't go forward. The two of them stood behind and talked, looking at them from a distance, they were really a pair of beautiful people.
Xiao Jingxi joked in a good mood: "Mr. Ren, congratulations."
Ren Yaoqi glanced at him: "Mr. Xiao, where does my joy come from?"
The corner of Xiao Jingxi's mouth curved: "Does it count as killing the Quartet and becoming famous all over the world?"
Ren Yaoqi glared at him: "Why didn't you tell me in advance."
Ren Yaoqi didn't react. Although her words sounded like a complaint, they sounded like a spoiled brat. Xiao Jingxi was stunned when he heard it, and looked at her and said in a low voice, "You secretly used my tricks without telling me in advance."
Ren Yaoqi blushed and stopped talking.
She didn't think much about it when she was playing chess at that time, and was mentioned by Xiao Jingxi like this. It seemed ambiguous.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Xiao Jingxi lowered his head and smiled and said, "I'm angry? I'll let you use all my tricks in the future, won't it work? If you win, I will be honored."
The two of them are talking here and the atmosphere is good, but some people can't see that they are good.
Yan Ningshuang didn't know when she appeared, and she couldn't understand her face and rushed over to them.
"Young Master Xiao." Yan Ningshuang saw only Xiao Jingxi in her eyes, and bowed her knees with a blushing face.
Xiao Jingxi nodded. Although his face was calm, he was already a little unhappy in his heart.
Yan Ningshuang looked at Xiao Jingxi and said, "Young Master Xiao, can you take a step to speak? I have something important to discuss with you."
Xiao Jingxi frowned and replied politely and indifferently, "Miss Yan can go to the princess or Jinglin if she has something to do. I don't want to ask about the inner court."
Yan Ningshuang hurriedly said, "I'm not talking about the inner court." She glanced at Ren Yaoqi and said, "Mr. Xiao, I won't waste your time for too long."
Xiao Jingxi thought about it for a while, called his servant Tongxi over, and said to Yan Ningshuang politely: "Miss Yan can talk to my servant about matters in the outer court, and he can handle many things on my behalf or tell me."
Yan Ningshuang heard deep disappointment in her eyes. She wanted to say something, but she couldn't open her mouth to ask Xiao Jingxi in front of Ren Yaoqi. In front of Xiao Jingxi, she could put down her figure and self-esteem so that he could take a look at her, but she was unwilling to show her humble side to anyone other than Xiao Jingxi.
Yan Ningshuang's eyes dimmed, looked at Xiao Jingxi, and finally walked away.
Xiao Jingxi didn't stay here for too long. After talking with Ren Yaoqi for a while, he came to find him. Second Young Master Xiao had to leave first.
Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but think that Yan Ningshuang said that he wanted to find Xiao Jingxi for something, was it really something or was it an excuse
Yan Ningshuang was still in the Garden of Wonderful Treasures, sitting in the pavilion with her head lowered, wondering what she was thinking.
