Chapter 78: King Xuan's Random Matchmaking
Xia Taoyuan was about to lead a few people forward when she suddenly heard a sweet laugh: "What a coincidence, isn't this Miss Wei!"
Xia Taoyuan looked in the direction of the voice and saw that several people had already arrived in front of them. The one who was speaking was Mu Yanran. Next to her stood Xuan Wang Chu Xingyue, and behind her were Fang Muyao and Zhang Qianqian. Chu Xingyue stared at Wei Qing with her eyes fixed. Xia Taoyuan was a little annoyed, so she pulled Wei Qing behind her and said, "It turned out to be Miss Mu."
"Ms. Wei, long time no see." Chu Xingyue withdrew her gaze from Wei Qing and said with a smile.
"It's better to never see each other again." Xia Taoyuan said coldly. Chu Xingyue was disappointed and laughed dryly in embarrassment.
When she first met Chu Xingyue, her first impression was that this person was too sinister and cunning, and the smile on his face gave people a very hypocritical feeling. She always stayed as far away from such people as possible, fearing that she would be calculated and nothing would be left.
After saying that, Xia Taoyuan was about to lead Wei Qing and the others around, but she heard Zhang Qianqian snort, "Pretending to be noble!" She said with great disdain and rolled her eyes. Fang Muyao also sneered at Xia Taoyuan.
Xia Taoyuan ignored the provocation of the two and continued walking forward.
"Hey, you all are here?" Following a clear voice, a young man in brocade clothes stood in front of Xia Taoyuan.
Xia Taoyuan looked up and saw that it was the Southern King Chu Xingliang, with Qi Nanfeng and Mu Yun also with him.
Qi Nanfeng winked at Xia Taoyuan, who pretended not to notice and turned her eyes to Chu Xingliang, only to find that Chu Xingliang was staring at Wei Qing intently. Wei Qing lowered her head shyly when she saw someone staring at her.
"Brother, where have you been? You haven't been home for several days and father is angry." Mu Yanran walked up to Mu Yun and asked.
Mu Yun smiled and said, "The shop in Yunzhou was counting the goods these days, and I was delayed there for a few days. I asked Xiang Wei to go back to the mansion to report to my father. Could it be that this kid didn't go?"
"If I go, father won't be angry." Mu Yanran pouted.
"Brother Mu, you should make sure to rest even if you are busy. You have lost a lot of weight compared to the past few days." Zhang Qianqian walked up and said shyly.
Seeing that everyone was looking at Zhang Qianqian, Xia Taoyuan took Wei Qing's hand and was about to leave, but was stopped by Chu Xingliang.
"Third sister-in-law, this girl looks unfamiliar. I wonder which family she is from." Chu Xingliang couldn't help asking. He had a good impression of this girl and couldn't take his eyes off her the first time he saw her.
"Your Highness Prince Nan, I'm sorry, we have urgent matters to attend to. Please move aside." Xia Taoyuan was very impolite.
Chu Xingliang opened his mouth and wanted to say something but didn't say it. He knew Xia Taoyuan's temper. If he annoyed her, he would never be able to see this girl again. So he moved aside to make way and said, "Third sister-in-law, please!"
Xia Taoyuan took Wei Qing and the maid away. Chu Xingliang stared at Wei Qing's back until she disappeared from view.
Qi Nanfeng's eyes also followed Xia Taoyuan's figure. Fang Muyao, who was standing by, couldn't help but feel resentful: This Wei Zhiying may not be good at anything else, but she is good at seducing men!
Chu Xingyue watched the expressions of several people with interest. He didn't care at all about how Zhang Qianqian treated Mu Yun and Fang Muyao treated Qi Nanfeng. He was interested in the way Qi Nanfeng looked at Wei Zhiying.
"Mr. Qi, it's a rare opportunity to meet you today, how about we have a drink?" Chu Xingyue looked at Qi Nanfeng with a smile. The Southern King was his younger brother, and Mu Yun was his future brother-in-law and cousin. In his mind, these two people would obey him without asking.
But unexpectedly, Mu Yun said, "I haven't been home for a few days. I have to go back now. Excuse me." After that, he turned and left.
After Xia Taoyuan left, Chu Xingliang was still thinking about Wei Qing and didn't hear what Chu Xingyue said at all. When he saw Mu Yun leave, he was stunned for a moment and called the guards to leave.
Chu Xingyue couldn't help feeling annoyed when he saw that the two men didn't give him face.
Qi Nanfeng laughed and said, "Then I'd rather obey you than be respectful." He didn't want to go, but Mu Yun and the Southern King had left, and if he didn't agree, Chu Xingyue would definitely lose face. Although he usually acted casually, he was a hostage after all, so he didn't want to offend the prince if he could.
Chu Xingyue made a gesture of invitation and walked towards the reception building, Mu Yanran followed closely behind Chu Xingyue. Fang Muyao walked beside Qi Nanfeng and was secretly delighted. Only Zhang Qianqian looked unhappy, and her face was full of frustration and loneliness after Mu Yun left.
Several people arrived at the reception building. Chu Xingyue and Mu Yanran sat down next to each other, Qi Nanfeng sat next to Chu Xingyue. Fang Muyao saw Qi Nanfeng sitting down and walked over to sit next to him. Zhang Qianqian sat next to Fang Muyao.
Chu Xingyue smiled and asked, "I heard that Master Qi and Cousin Mu have known each other for a long time, but I didn't know that Master Qi and Old Five were also very close."
Qi Nanfeng waved his folding fan, smiled and said, "Two years ago, the emperor summoned me to the palace. I met His Royal Highness the Southern Prince in the Imperial Garden and helped him take down a kite hanging from a tree. He was only twelve or thirteen years old at the time. He believed that I was an extraordinary martial artist and insisted that I teach him martial arts. I refused, but he actually found out where I lived and came to visit me. I had no choice but to teach him a thing or two, and after a while, we became familiar with each other."
"So that's how it is." Chu Xingyue poured a cup of tea for Mu Yanran.
Qi Nanfeng has always been very polite to women, and he also poured a cup of tea for Zhang Qianqian and Fang Muyao. Zhang Qianqian thanked him, and Fang Muyao smiled sweetly, completely unlike her usual dignified and noble appearance, and said in a delicate voice: "Muyao thanks you, sir."
Although Zhang Qianqian was in a bad mood at the moment, as a bystander, she noticed the difference in Fang Muyao's attitude towards Qi Nanfeng. She suddenly realized that Fang Muyao, who had always had high standards, had taken a fancy to Qi Nanfeng. No wonder many people who went to the Fang Mansion to propose marriage were rejected.
Everyone had a great time chatting during the meal. Fang Muyao poured wine for Qi Nanfeng several times and watched him drink it. She looked like Qi Nanfeng's wife.
Chu Xingyue suddenly smiled and said, "I heard that Master Qi is still unmarried. Is it because he has too high standards or has he not met a girl he likes?"
Upon hearing this, Qi Nanfeng said, "How could any girl be interested in a guy like me who has nothing?" But then he thought of that stubborn donkey, and a smile appeared on his face.
"Young Master Qi is the third prince of Nanzhu Kingdom, King Xiaoyao, and has a respected status. I heard that there are many young ladies in Yunjun City who are in love with Young Master Qi!" Chu Xingyue glanced at Fang Muyao.
"Your Highness Prince Xuan is such a joke. I have accomplished nothing and have no plans to get married." Qi Nanfeng raised his glass to toast Chu Xingyue.
"That's a pity. I want to introduce a girl to Master Qi. Since Master Qi is not interested, that's fine." Chu Xingyue wanted to match Fang Muyao and Qi Nanfeng. He saw that Fang Muyao was interested in Qi Nanfeng. Of course, it's not that he is very considerate, but Fang Muyao's father Fang Zhong is the Minister of Justice. If he wants to seize that position in the future, he will have to win over some court officials.
Although Fang Zhong was from Mu Huairen's faction, he was not familiar with him, and with Mu Huairen between them, it was hard to say what would happen in the future. He thought that if he helped Fang Muyao, he might be able to win Fang Zhong's support. He could also win over Qi Nanfeng, the third prince of Nanzhu Kingdom. If things got out of control in the future, he could also ask Nanzhu Kingdom for help.
But Qi Nanfeng had no intention of doing so, so he had to find another way.
"I appreciate the kindness of His Highness Prince Xuan. I would like to offer another toast to His Highness." Qi Nanfeng said with a smile.
At this moment, Fang Muyao's face became extremely ugly. She had wanted to find an opportunity to express her feelings to Qi Nanfeng, but Qi Nanfeng said that he had no plans to get married for the time being. Wasn't she wishful thinking?
Mu Yanran noticed that Fang Muyao was acting strange and asked her what was wrong. Fang Muyao couldn't tell him that she admired Qi Nanfeng, so she could only make an excuse: "I think I drank some wine just now, and now I feel dizzy and uncomfortable."
"How about this, Mr. Qi, please send Miss Fang back home later?" Chu Xingyue said. Although Qi Nanfeng said that he had no plans to get married for the time being, if they could create some opportunities, maybe Qi Nanfeng would change his mind.
"Your Majesty, you are too polite. It's just a small favor. I will take Miss Fang back later." Qi Nanfeng did not refuse. Since King Xuan had asked, he might as well go with the flow and do him a favor.
After eating, Chu Xingyue took Mu Yanran away, and Zhang Qianqian followed them. Qi Nanfeng and Fang Muyao also walked out of the reception building.
Qi Nanfeng wanted to find a carriage, but he couldn't find one. He had no choice but to walk to the Shangshu Mansion with Fang Muyao one after the other.
