Chapter 38 Royal Racecourse
It doesn't matter, I will find a way to convince the prime minister!" Tong Luoyang gently raised the tea cup and took a sip, "You have to keep a close eye on the fifth prince, the less movement there is, the more murderous intent is hidden!"
On the third day, Long Xinyu woke up very early, planning to change into men's clothes before going out to continue yesterday's shopping plan.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Xi'er came over with two sets of clothes, she heard the guard at the gate of Xinxiang Garden reporting: "Princess, the seventh prince has arrived!"
Tong Luoyang? What is this guy doing again?
Long Xinyu had no choice but to put down the plan at hand and walked out of Xinxiang Garden dignifiedly with Xi'er's support.
It's not that she wanted to be pretentious, but after Xi'er heard yesterday's gossip, she paid great attention to the way Long Xinyu met guests. It happened that the seventh prince was visiting openly again, so now she had to be dignified in everything she said.
Just fine.
So he went to the front hall in a dignified manner.
Suddenly seeing Long Xinyu tightly wrapped in a complicated costume, Tong Luoyang couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. After a while, he took out a post from his arms and handed it to Long Xinyu.
Xi'er quickly took it for her, and then transferred it to her hands.
It's too much, Xi'er...
Long Xinyu also followed Tong Luoyang's reflex and twitched the corner of her mouth before slowly opening the post.
The cover of Feiyang Domineering was shining with gold. After the red silk thread was pulled open, the post stretched out, and there were simply four large black characters printed inside.
"Royal Horse Racing!"
This, what does this mean?
Long Xinyu didn't understand for a while, what did this have to do with her?
"Sister Xinyu, the royal horse racing is held once a year and will be held in five days. Every prince can invite a woman to accompany him. Although several of the princes have wives, I am the only one who has so far.
I am still alone, so I can only invite the princess to accompany me!"
race!
Long Xinyu was a little interested. After passing through, she only rode for a few days at the border, and she felt quite familiar with it. Anyway, now she just stayed in the General's Mansion every day, eating and drinking, so she might as well walk around and have fun.
Play.
Thinking of this, she pretended to smile dignifiedly and replied: "Since the seventh prince's post has been handed over to me, wouldn't it be contrary to the prince's good intentions to shirk it anymore?"
I agreed so easily!
This fact made Tong Luoyang not believe his ears for a moment.
"Then Sister Xinyu has agreed?"
Judging from what he has known and thought about her character during this period, this little woman should not be so willing to agree to get along with him? In vain, he thought of a lot of reasons to convince her, and now
Not even a single reason was used.
Could it be that the confrontation at the prince's house made her tempted?
But from a common sense analysis, it’s not that simple, right?
Seeing Tong Luoyang's elf-like eyes that said she couldn't believe it was so easy to shine, Long Xinyu couldn't help but feel a little funny, and couldn't help teasing: "Seventh Prince, is it possible that you regret it again?"
Tong Luoyang withdrew his attention, Yun Danfeng smiled lightly, his brows relaxed, and the brilliance in his eyes shone even more.
Not only was Long Xinyu stunned by this smile, but Xi'er behind him and the maids present were also fascinated by it.
Even if it is a short-lived scene, it cannot be worth the beauty of this moment, right?
"Sister Xinyu, I just want to remind you that on the day of the horse race, you need to make men's clothing. Since you agreed to this prince, I will leave. Five days later, at 4 o'clock in the morning, I will pick you up at the general's mansion.
!"
After saying that, Tong Luoyang stood up and left.
Leaving everyone still stunned!
Horse racing!
Long Xinyu looked back at Xi'er with a smile. Just as she was about to speak, someone rushed in from outside the door like a gust of wind.
"Bitch!" Tong Luoxue stood in the lobby of the General's Mansion with a cold expression on her face, her eyes fixed on the post in Long Xinyu's hand. The chill around her body seemed to freeze the General's Mansion.
"You really seduced my brother Luo Yang and made him give you the post!" Tong Luoxue suddenly rushed over crazily and grabbed Long Xinyu's hand tightly.
"Give it back to me, return the post to me! Before you appeared, brother Luo Yang's eyes never stopped for any woman, and brother Luo Yang's eyes never accommodated any woman, except me!"
Tong Luoxue dragged Long Xinyu bitterly and refused to let go, as if she knew she couldn't fight her, so she just clung to her and kept chanting:
"Since you appeared, brother Luo Yang no longer plays with me or practices with me. He doesn't even take me to the royal horse racing. You know, the person who accompanied him before was me. It was me. You
This bitch, give me back my brother Luo Yang!"
For a moment, Long Xinyu didn't react.
What's happening here?
The two of them should be brothers and sisters, right?
A brother-in-love complex? And also, such an exaggerated love?
"It's you, a bitch, who seduced my brother Luo Yang. He even heard the rumors between you and Hong Tianshao, but he still took you to horse racing regardless of it. He said, "What on earth are you doing to my brother Luo Yang?"
What kind of medicine was put on your body to make him obsessed with you like this?"
Long Xinyu really wanted to ask: "I should ask you, what kind of medicine did he put on you to make you obsessed with him like this?"
But after thinking about it, she restrained herself from saying this.
Tong Luoxue looks very abnormal now. She usually won't argue with a madman.
Thinking of this, she handed the post in her hand to Tong Luoxue.
"Well, if you want it, I'll give it back to you. When the time comes, if you want to go, just go by yourself!"
"...Ah?" Tong Luoxue, who wanted to continue reading, was suddenly stunned. She stared blankly at the dazzling golden post in front of her, as if silently laughing at her gaffe.
She took the post fiercely, rushed out like a gust of wind without looking back, and dropped a sentence.
"Long Xinyu, I hate you!"
Hate it as much as you want, no matter how much you hate it, I won't lose a piece of flesh.
Presumably, Long Xinyu put this matter aside and returned to Xinxiangyuan, changed into men's clothes with Xi'er, and continued her purchasing plan together.
When she came to the capital city market again, Long Xinyu truly heard how exaggerated the previous gossip was.
As soon as she and Xi'er bought the ingredients for making wine and walked out of the store, she heard the crowd still talking in twos and threes. Some versions were that the general's daughter had a man hiding in her boudoir, singing happily every night, and some versions were that Princess Xinyu and Qi
The prince and the new military champion went to bed together secretly...
Ahhhhh... She finally understood why the hawker looked so embarrassed yesterday. It turned out that what they were talking about was not just her private meeting with those two guys, but that and so on!!!
Xi'er was holding a bunch of things next to her, her face was red to the base of her neck, and her face was full of anger. It seemed that she wanted to rush up and argue with others, but how could she, a little maid, participate in such a topic?
Xi'er's delicate eyes suddenly filled with anxiety and sadness.
Long Xinyu's face was also green and red, but the next second she felt relieved again.
Rumors are always getting darker and darker. It would be better if no one responded.
Thinking of this, Long Xinyu calmly pulled Xi'er back. Finally, when she was about to reach the street of General Mansion, she finally heard a new version.
"I heard that there are many men's boots in the princess's yard. Every morning, you can see a brand new pair of men's boots in front of her door. They must take turns to sleep..."
...
Tong Luoxue!
Long Xinyu gritted her teeth and squeezed out three words from between her teeth!
It turns out that these rumors were deliberately spread by Tong Luoxue, this lunatic!
Long Xinyu shouted angrily in her heart:
This crazy woman with a brother-in-law complex!
In the next few days, Long Xinyu never went out again. She was really short of something, so she asked Xi'er to go out and buy it. She stayed in Xinxiangyuan, practicing the internal skills taught by Ama, and making wine.
Finally, the day of the horse racing arrived. Long Xinyu had hesitated for a long time whether to go. After all, there were too many rumors in the capital, and it was certain that they would reach Tong Luoyang's ears. Even if they did not reach Tong Luoyang's ears from the capital, Tong Luoxue must have heard them too.
He will definitely hear such words from various channels.
In that case, would he still come and ask me to go horse racing?
Thinking of this, Long Xinyu gave up the idea of going out to race horses and continued to lie in bed and sleep.
It wasn't until dawn that a firm knock came from outside the gate of the General's Mansion. From the gate of the General's Mansion to Xinxiang Garden is the longest stretch of road in the entire General's Mansion. Even so, Long Xinyu still listened immediately.
There was that firm knock on the door.
She jumped out of bed, put on the men's clothes she had prepared yesterday, rolled her long hair into a simple bun on her head, put on her hat and ran out.
Outside the door, Tong Luoyang glared at Long Xinyu with a displeased face and asked dissatisfied:
"Why are you so unpunctual? What time is it now?"
Although it is early summer, the night breeze in the early morning is still a bit chilly. Tong Luoyang and his entourage have been knocking on the door for half an hour!
Long Xinyu looked up at the sky innocently. There was a crescent moon hanging in the sky that was not yet bright.
She lowered her head in embarrassment and replied sheepishly: "I thought... I thought you wouldn't come!"
An unnoticed light flashed in Tong Luoyang's eyes, and he said calmly: "When will I tell you that I won't come?"
A warmth flowed through Long Xinyu's heart, but her head dropped lower, and she said slowly in a voice that almost only Tong Luoyang could hear:
Chapter completed!
