Xin Zhi was already wilting, but when he heard that Yu Jing's people were coming, he wilted even more.
Wu Sheyue had a strange feeling at this time. She felt... Could this guy Yu Jing just get stuck here on purpose? He is so powerful, he should be able to easily know what the situation is on his side, right
After a while, the boy led Ayan through the door. Wu Sheyue stared at him, and Ayan also secretly blinked at her.
Wu Hantian greeted him very politely and asked, "Young general, what is the important matter for the young prince?"
As a result, Ayan took out a brocade box and held it in his hand, and said with a business expression: "I pay my respects to Prime Minister Wu. This is a gift from our master to the third lady. I sent you to give it to the third lady."
The old lady's expression suddenly became a little moved. If she read correctly, the box was made of sandalwood wrapped with gold leaf and jade pieces, so the things inside must be priceless!
At the same time, Wu Jinghua's eyes twitched fiercely, and he repeated uncontrollably: "A gift?" Didn't she hear it wrong? That Wu Sheyue was obviously just a concubine, so why did the young prince give her a gift? !
Aunt Liu stared at Ayan's hand, feeling jealous and unfair, as if her whole body was on fire.
She originally suspected that Wu Sheyue had harmed her daughter, but now her daughter was facing bad news, and Wu Sheyue had gained the favor of high-ranking officials and nobles at this time. Was she blind
"Thank you for your kindness, young prince, but I don't know why the young prince is doing this, why he suddenly wants to give something to Yue'er..." Wu Hantian said, reaching out to pick up the box. He is now full of doubts about this daughter, and this move also means that he wants to explore.
However, Ayan seemed not to have seen Wu Hantian's hand and had no intention of handing it over. "The Prime Minister is worrying too much. In fact, there is no special reason. It's just that the master said that when he saw this thing today, he suddenly felt very close to the third lady." It matches, so I asked my subordinates to send it, everything is done as I wish, I hope the third lady and the prime minister will not have any burden."
It's a good idea to do whatever you want, but the more you follow your heart, the easier it is to attract people's guesses. Wu Jinghua's nose felt sore at this sentence and he almost couldn't hold back his tears. She glared at Wu Sheyue with all her strength, almost tearing her into pieces in her heart.
Aunt Meng was never aware of her daughter's love thoughts, she only thought that Wu Jinghua looked down on Wu Sheyue.
Wu Hantian's hand stopped in the air, feeling extremely embarrassed. Facing Yu Jing's people, he still didn't have the guts to show off to others, so he had to put it down.
Ayan stretched out his hands respectfully towards Wu Sheyue and said, "Master said to ask Miss Third to see if she still likes it. If Miss Three doesn't like this, Master said that she will give her something more to her liking next time."
And next time? Those women who were about to be unable to sit still were no longer calm. When will the young prince give the girl something? What's more, it's such a generous investment. This is the largest contribution ever!
Now the atmosphere in the entire court became weird. Wu Sheyue came over and took the box, trying her best to ignore the glares piercing her back. She lowered her head and opened the button of the box. The box popped open, and she saw a short knife with a cold light on the dark green velvet inside.
She picked up the dagger, and the eyes of everyone around her widened. The blade of this knife is small and thin, and is entirely silver. There is a row of crystal beads inlaid at the end of the handle. There are also intricate patterns of tiny waves. If you look closely, you can also find an ancient Chinese character for the moon on the blade, which is written very smartly and elegantly.
Wu Sheyue felt a little emotional in her heart. For someone as picky as her, she couldn't help but praise her. This was really well done. She rubbed her name with her fingertips, thinking uncontrollably: Did this character originally exist or was he specially carved? If you go out of your way to carve it, even if you start carving it after meeting this morning, it will still be too late...
Wu Jinghua took a look from a distance, his eyes were a little red with jealousy, but he could only interject sourly: "The third sister is really charming! She can fool the young prince into spending so much money."
But Wu Sheyue ignored her strange words and only nodded to Ayan: "Thank you very much."
"Third Miss, you are polite. This is my duty. I still have official duties to attend to, so I will go back now." Ayan said, then winked at Wu Sheyue hintingly, "Third Miss, do you have anything else to say?" go back?"
There was a bang, and everyone looked over and saw the teacup in the old lady's hand hitting the table hard. His face was gloomy and unbelievable. Everyone knows what it means. If they still take the message back, wouldn't it mean that the two of them are in love.
Wu Sheyue cursed in her heart. What else could she say? With so many people watching, should she bring a Morse code back
But Ayan didn't even look at the old lady, as if the old lady was nothing but air. He was still looking at Wu Sheyue, as if he was waiting for her to say a word. Wu Sheyue felt that Ayan's expression was really ambiguous, and she didn't know why, but her face felt inexplicably hot, "Well... just thank him for me."
"Yes." Ayan bowed his head to Wu Sheyue, then turned around and went out.
At this time, Wu Hantian's face turned red and white, which was very exciting. Ayan never gave him a good look from the moment he entered the door. Instead, he looked submissive to Wu Sheyue, and even bowed his head properly. This simply called him the Prime Minister. There is no place to put his face. He asked coldly: "When did your relationship with the young prince become so good?!"
Wu Sheyue held the box in her hand and lied innocently and aggrievedly: "Huh? I... I don't think I'm familiar with him. I just met him twice at banquets."
When she said that, Wu Jinghua quit. She stood up with gritted teeth and said angrily: "Then why didn't you talk about the private meeting? Women must adhere to the three obediences and four virtues. If the third sister gets involved with a man for no reason, right? —”
"What did the second sister say? Yue'er doesn't want to have a relationship with anyone." Wu Sheyue said, almost crying, "I think the second sister wants to have a relationship but can't. I'm in a hurry here." Right~"
"You-" Wu Jinghua was poked in a sore spot.
The old lady didn't pay attention to the quarrels between those little girls, but fell into deep thought. She was a little confused in her heart, could it be that... the young prince really fell in love with Yue'er
Now the prince is interested in Yue'er, and the young prince is suddenly showing his attentiveness. If these high-ranking officials and nobles are true, then the child can't move at all. (To be continued)
