Chapter 84
Your Highness King Yan, we met on the third floor of this Ding Xiang Lou a few months ago, have you already forgotten everything?
Ling Jingyan used all her self-control to finally swallow back the words, whispering her thanks before getting up and walking behind Jiang’s back without making a fool of herself
Jiang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, fixed her mind, apologized and smiled: ”Today, it’s all our fault for disturbing His Highness the King of Yan’s dining pleasure
We will leave first, and if there were any words that were not well thought out just now, please be generous and not take it to heart”
Jiang’s attitude was so humble, so King Yan could not afford to hold onto what happened just now
What’s more, he actually didn’t feel much displeasure at being offended
As the youngest prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty, he had been in a superior position since birth
The people around him were obedient to him, and his father and mother even pampered him in their hearts
Therefore, also developed a reckless nature
See his young girls, or because of his noble identity fell, or for his handsome to the extreme looks of the heart, or because of his wild and reckless temperament convinced
He had long been accustomed to seeing the adoration in the eyes of young girls
Ling Jingshu’s unimpressed and cold reaction was almost unprecedented, giving him a sense of novelty and freshness
Of course, he is the son of the emperor, always have to reserve his identity, can not do and do not care to do that kind of bullying things
Jiang’s to retire, Yan Wang also did not stop, only casually responded: “Just, is not a big deal, today’s matter is over”
The shopkeeper and Eunuch Xi, who were kneeling on the ground, were almost on the verge of tears
The shopkeeper was glad to have escaped
Eunuch Xi, however, was terrified of the impending catastrophe
Yan Wang was still standing at the door, and both the shopkeeper and Eunuch Xi were kneeling
The doorway was tightly covered
If you want to go out, you have to ask King Yan to get out of the way, but who has the guts to say that?
Jiang was hesitating when she heard Ling Jingshu open her mouth and say, “Please ask His Highness King Yan to enter the elegant room first”
Yes
Just let King Yan come in first
Jiang finally came to her senses as if she had been enlightened, immediately leading the crowd to stand aside
Yan Wang clearly did not understand what it meant to be polite, and after stepping into the elegant room, he sat down with a peaceful demeanor
Eunuch Xi, who was originally kneeling at the doorway, changed from his previous awe-inspiring demeanor and stood up with trepidation
Groveling, he walked in and opened his mouth tremblingly, “Your servant has made a mistake, please punish Your Highness”
Yan Wang impatiently waited for Eunuch Xi, “Alright
You will be punished again when you return to your residence
Let the shopkeeper get up first and order someone to serve the food”
Today is considered to have escaped this fate!
The shopkeeper was grateful, busy thanking the grace, and then got up nimbly
The doorway emptied out
Jiang immediately led the way out
Walking out of the elegant room
After the door behind her was closed, the taut strings in Jiang’s head only loosened slightly
Ling Jingshu asked in a low voice, “Cousin-in-law, where are we going next?”
It was noon, so we couldn’t just go back without eating
Changing to another restaurant would be time-consuming and troublesome, but she really didn’t feel like it
Jiang frowned slightly and was about to say something, when she saw the fellow who had greeted the customers earlier hurriedly run over
With an apologetic face, he said: ”I didn’t expect this to happen today, I’m really sorry to all of you
It just so happens that the guests in the elegant room on the second floor have left
It has been cleaned up properly
Please move over, the shopkeeper said, the previous silver all return
This lunch is on us at Ding Xiang Lou, and it’s also a way to compensate you for the shock”
Jiang looked at Ling Jingshu, “Ah Shu, what do you think?”
Ling Jingshu’s calmness and composure when in trouble was really impressive
Jiang could not decide on her own, so she naturally asked for Ling Jingshu’s opinionSince the shopkeeper is sincere, we’ll accept the kindness”
Ling Jingshu smiled faintly, “It’s getting late, so we can go back earlier after dinner”
Also good
Jiang nodded and said to the fellow, “Lead the way in front”
The fellow led the group to the elegant room on the second floor
Although the elegant room here was not as good as the third floor, it was still clean and spacious
The people had their own thoughts, and each of them took their seats in silence
Four cold dishes, six hot dishes and eight main dishes were soon presented
A table full of them
The dishes were not very rare, but the flavor was surprisingly good
There was also Ding Xiang Lou’s special fruit wine, not too high in degree, slightly sweet in taste, and fragrant to the nose
If it wasn’t for the fact that the scene that happened earlier had put the crowd in a somber mood, this would have been a delicious and enjoyable lunch
Now even though the wine and food were delicious, the crowd was not in the mood to savor it
Ling Jingyan, in particular, was like an eggplant that had been frosted, wilting without any energy
Counting the grains of rice in the bowl, she barely managed to eat a few bites, and put down her chopsticks without moving a single bite of the dishes
Jiang’s glanced at Ling Jingyan, also put down her chopsticks, and said faintly, “Yan, tell me honestly, today you purposely went to Ding Xiang Lou, and insisted on going to that Listening Bamboo Xuan, is it for the King of Yan?”
Ling Jingyan bit her lips hard and said nothing, but her eyes were quietly reddeningIt’s a good thing that King Yan didn’t get angry today
Otherwise, you would have caused trouble for the Ling family today”
Jiang’s expression did not change, but her tone was aggravated by a few points, vaguely more reprimanding: “After all, you’re still an unmarried girl, even if you always have to be a bit more reserved
If today’s incident is known to the mother-in-law, I am afraid that I will have to be reprimanded, and I will not want to go out again in the future”
Ling Jingyan panicked and raised her head without thinking, “Sister-in-law, I beg you, don’t tell Mother what happened today
Otherwise, she will have to give me a bad scolding”
Receiving a scolding was still a small matter
What was most feared was that, like Jiang said, she would be strictly grounded by Sun in the future and would never be able to go out easily again
Ling Jingyan begged with a pitiful face, “Sister-in-law, I won’t dare to be like this again
What happened today, you keep it a secret for me, okay?”
Jiang was just trying to scare Ling Jingyan, seeing that she had softened, she sighed lightly and said, “That’s it, I’ll keep your secret for once
There will be no more exceptions!”Thank you sister-in-law”
Ling Jingyan thanked her with a grateful face
From the beginning to the end, she did not look at Ling Jingshu
Ling Jingshu did not show any emotion on her face, but secretly sighed in her heart
Ling Jingyan obviously held a grudge against her because of what happened just now The friendship between young girls seems to be strong, but in reality, it is very fragile
A little bit of small things will also be unpleasant
What’s more, Ling Jingyan’s many advantages, never include magnanimity this one
The young man he loves can’t remember ever seeing himself, doesn’t even look at himself, but is attracted to another young girl
This kind of “serious” matter can simply make two young girls turn against each other for it!
