The War God Uncle's Delicate Wife
Chapter 93 Su Xiluo
When Liu Jiaojiao finished dancing, the young masters in the room were all delighted, but the other noble ladies did not think so. After all, a concubine's daughter was so eye-catching that the women present could not help but feel a little dissatisfied.
"Look at her pitiful appearance, which attracts the hearts of young men from various families. You'd better have less contact with such a restless woman in the future." The wife of the Minister of War gently reminded her daughter.
"Who said it wasn't true? How could a concubine's daughter be so arrogant? She must be quite ambitious! Look at her eyes, she almost wishes they were on the third prince." Mrs. Lu, the Minister of Rites, shook her head, her tone full of disdain.
Jiang Li raised his eyebrows slightly, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Obviously, everyone's eyes were sharp. These ladies present were all well-known figures in the capital. Which one of them was not a master of struggle in the deep mansions? Liu Jiaojiao's little trick was too obvious, and it was obvious. And the attitude of the wife and daughter of the Liu family explained everything.
Liu Jiaojiao felt ashamed when she heard the discussions around her. There were concubines performing before and they didn't say anything. Why couldn't they do that when it came to her? She really couldn't understand it. She didn't think about the concubines of other families who had to get the consent of the mistress of the house before they went up. What about her?
Liu Jiaojiao covered her face with her hands and ran out of the room crying. The third prince Mu Yang couldn't help but feel a little worried, but when he turned around, he saw the second prince looking at him with a playful expression on his face. Mu Yang sighed softly and decided to focus his attention back on the banquet.
He raised his head and his eyes happened to meet Jiang Li who was standing opposite him. It had been a while since he last saw her, and Jiang Li seemed to have changed a little at this moment. She used to always follow him closely, but now Jiang Li seemed to have really given up pursuing him. This feeling made Mu Yang feel an indescribable weirdness in his heart.
At this moment, Jiang Li was happily savoring the delicious dishes. While she was eating, she was happily chatting with the Taifu Madam beside her. I don't know what interesting things the Taifu Madam said, but Jiang Li suddenly burst into a hearty laugh. This laughter was like the warm sunshine in spring, filling the whole room.
Mu Yang stared at Jiang Li quietly. She looked so strange in front of him. Her smile was bright and beautiful, as if it could dispel all the haze and sorrow. This woman who had been infatuated with him now showed a new style, which made him look sideways. But he suddenly shook his head. Why did he think she was cute? He always disliked her. She must have drunk too much. He had to go out for some fresh air.
Jiang Li suddenly felt a strange gaze falling on her. At first, she didn't care and continued to eat with her head down, but the gaze became stronger and stronger, as if it was going to penetrate her body. Finally, she couldn't help but raise her head to see who was staring at her.
When she looked across the dining table, she was surprised to find that the Third Prince Mu Yang had stood up and walked towards the door. She couldn't help wondering: How could it be such a coincidence? Liu Jiaojiao also went out just now. Did they make an appointment? Thinking of this, Jiang Li prayed in her heart: I hope they can be together as soon as possible! In this way, she can completely get rid of these troubles.
In this life, let them lock each other tightly! Jiang Li even couldn't wait to see this pair of lovers "get married".
"I heard that Master Jiang's daughter is both talented and beautiful. I wonder what talent Miss Jiang has prepared today?" A woman in pink clothes, holding a handkerchief, with a shy look on her face, smiled softly and cast her eyes towards Jiang Li.
Jiang Li was enjoying her meal at this time, and she almost choked when she heard someone calling her name. She hurriedly picked up the teacup and took a big gulp of tea, which slightly eased her embarrassment. After her breath stabilized, Jiang Li slowly raised her head and looked in the direction of the voice.
At the end of her sight, a strange woman sat in the center opposite. Jiang Li stared at her, frowning slightly, thinking hard for a long time, but still couldn't remember who this person was. After all, she had never met this woman in the capital.
"Oh? Who told you that? I didn't know I was so talented and beautiful~ Thank you for your kindness! May I ask where this lady is from?" Jiang Li had a smile on her lips, her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a subtle cunning. She was not the kind of soft persimmon that could be squeezed by others, she had to find out who the other person was.
As soon as Jiang Li finished speaking, the princess also looked in that direction. Obviously, she was also very curious about this sudden episode.
The wife of the Minister of Personnel, Su Yutang, slowly stood up, bowed slightly to the princess, and said softly, "In reply to the princess, this is my niece, Su Xiluo, the daughter of the Suzhou prefect. She just came to the capital a few days ago. Today I specially brought her out for a walk so that she can see the prosperity of the capital." After that, Su Yutang did not forget to signal Su Xiluo with her eyes, asking her to quickly salute the princess.
Su Xiluo understood what she meant, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet the princess respectfully: "I am Su Xiluo, and I pay my respects to Her Royal Highness the Princess!" Her voice was clear and melodious, like a yellow oriole singing in a valley, and coupled with her charming and lovely appearance, it made people feel bright. However, Jiang Li keenly caught the flash of arrogance and disdain in her eyes. It seems that this Miss Su is not a simple character...
"When I first arrived in Beijing, I heard that the daughter of Master Jiang was both beautiful and talented, so I wanted to get to know her." Su Xiluo answered obediently.
Talented and pretty? Humph! Back then, Jiang Li dressed up in all kinds of fancy and seductive ways, spending all day in the Peach Blossom Pavilion, staring at the Third Prince reciting poems and writing couplets, occasionally adding a line or two to the poem, which made everyone present burst into laughter. Could this be what Su Xiluo meant by talent and pretty?
At this moment, everyone present cast their eyes towards the seat of the Third Prince, but found that it was empty, without the Third Prince. So, everyone began to whisper to each other, and the scene was very noisy and chaotic. Suddenly, everyone seemed to have returned to a few months ago, when Jiang Li was running around the street like a pug chasing the Third Prince, just like a complete nymphomaniac, without any ladylike demeanor at all.
"Oh! Miss Su really pays attention to me. How come she knew me as soon as she came to Beijing? I'm deeply honored. What a pity. I'm a well-known fool beauty in Beijing. I'm afraid I'll disappoint Miss Su."
Su Xiluo was a little confused by Jiang Li's words. She never expected that Jiang Li would not play by the rules.
"That's such a pity." Su Xiluo said with some regret.
Su Xiluo!!! Jiang Li suddenly remembered something from his previous life!
