More than ten days passed in a flash, and tomorrow was the Qingtan meeting. The closer the day came, the more nervous Xi Duanhong became, always afraid that something bad was going to happen.
——The day of Qingtan meeting
Xi Duanhong stood in front of the mirror and looked at herself in the mirror. At this time, she had long lost her original childishness. The innocent and childlike appearance that day had been replaced by gentleness and calmness. Even she could not believe that she was so demure. Once again A long sigh.
A'yue walked in and saw her staring blankly at herself in the mirror and jokingly said, "Hey, our girl Xi has also learned to appreciate herself in the mirror?"
Xi Duanhong smiled and shook his head, "I'm just sighing. It's not like holding the mirror to admire yourself. If it weren't for a beauty like A Yue, I really can't think of anyone else who could admire the mirror."
"Okay, okay, His Majesty Qingtanhui and the ministers of the DPRK are back today, so you have to be careful."
"The emperor is here too? Is this Qingtan really so important?"
Ah Yue knew what she was worried about, "Relax, it'll be fine. By the way, Miss Qian Sheng was already waiting in the courtyard when I came."
Xi Duanhong forced himself to calm down, "Okay, I understand. Thank you very much for the help of Manager A Yue these days."
From A Yue's point of view, why does this girl Xi look like she is going to die? It shouldn't be that way.
Everyone in the academy decided to head to Qingtan Mountain to take a chance on this opportunity. Xi Duanhong and Qian Shengxue were no exception. They went together in a carriage.
"Xi'er, is this Qingtan so important? Everyone has gone?"
"Yes, this is the opportunity that many people are waiting for. This Qingtan Association can get up close and personal with people who cannot be contacted in ordinary times, especially the current emperor."
The two fell into silence for a while and did not speak again.
Along the way, Xi Duanhong looked at the mountains and rivers outside the window. Such a peaceful life is really longing for people. The reason why Xu Zhi did not follow Xi Duanhong today is because Xi Duanhong asked him to go to the cell today to rob the person while he was young. No matter what happens today, she has to deal with it by herself.
The Qingtan Club is co-organized by the Royal United Sacrifice Academy. Each family will receive invitations to come to the Qingtan Club. To put it more bluntly, it is equivalent to dignitaries coming here to select talents, or the young lady from a certain family. Those with amazing talents may be given the opportunity to fly onto a branch and become a phoenix overnight.
Xi Duanhong's goal is very simple, that is, to gain the favor of the emperor, or someone who is valued by the emperor's relatives and nobles and can give her the opportunity to enter the court.
Today, Xi Duanhong was dressed in Tsing Yi, which made her look as quiet and elegant as a hibiscus emerging from the water. Especially when she looked back and smiled, even Qian Shengxue was fascinated by her look. Both of them were beautiful women, but Qian Shengxue I'm still somewhat inferior to her, but I'm still willing to be inferior.
Soon two or three men came up to chat with him, but they were all rejected by Xi Duanhong. Xi Duanhong found a quiet place to sit down, and just after taking a nap, he saw a man walking over.
This person was very familiar to her. He was Mu Lingchuan whom she had met in the academy before. However, this time Xi Duanhong was no longer as reckless as last time. He only learned about this person after reading about the royal family in the collection room of the Pavilion of Sacrifice. Mr. Mu is the ninth prince of the current dynasty.
Xi Duanhong stood up and saluted: "It turns out to be His Highness the Ninth Prince. I wonder if His Highness the Ninth Prince has anything to do with a common girl?"
Mu Lingchuan was surprised that the change in her these days was different from the previous feeling, "Miss Xi, you don't have to be like this, you and I should still treat each other as friends."
Xi Duanhong smiled, "If His Highness really wanted to find friends, he would not have hidden his true identity that day, and there was no need to scare the daughter of the people. If there was nothing wrong with His Highness, the daughter of the people would have resigned first."
Mu Lingchuan was confused. Why did he make her angry? What did you do?
Mu Lingchuan quickly caught up with Xi Duanhong, "Miss Xi, stay! Stay."
"Does His Highness Ninth Prince have anything else to give you?"
"Haha, Miss Xi, you don't have to be so hostile to me. I won't do anything to you. Please rest assured."
Xi Duanhong was very uncomfortable with the looks from around him, so he had no choice but to sit down and face Mu Lingchuan, "Your Majesty Ninth Prince, please tell me if you have any advice."
"Does the girl you talked to before still remember her?"
Xi Duanhong frowned and looked at Mu Lingchuan with less conflicting eyes than before. Why didn't she think that the Ninth Prince might be able to help him with the matter of entering the court? But whether it was possible or not was still a question. Something happened.
"Of course the civilian girls will remember it. The civilian girls that His Highness said at that time dare not forget it."
Mu Lingchuan lowered his head helplessly and smiled, "Miss Xi, doesn't the name of a folk girl seem too harsh? If you really don't want to, just call me Ninth Young Master. You don't have to belittle yourself in front of me. identity of."
"……."
"Miss Xi, do you think this is good?"
"Ninth Young Master."
Mu Lingchuan smiled with relief, stretched out his hand to ask Xi Duanhong to sit down and said, "Let's talk about it now. Do you have any changes in your opinions on my suggestions at that time?"
Xi Duanhong does not completely trust Mu Lingchuan, but now Mu Lingchuan is the only royal person she can contact, and now she seems to have no one else who can help her except him.
"My view was too one-sided that day. What the Ninth Young Master said is definitely right and better than my opinion."
"Today all the descendants of the Qingtan Club's aristocratic families have returned. You have many opportunities, it all depends on how you choose." Mu Lingchuan felt uneasy when he said this. As for why, no one could tell.
While the two were talking, another three people, two men and one woman, came over. The three of them were so dazzling that Xi Duanhong had to notice them.
Mu Lingchuan also noticed it, shook his head helplessly, unfolded the folding fan in his hand, "The troublesome guy is here."
Before Xi Duanhong could ask, the man in the navy blue robe with a proud look on his face said, "I am the ninth brother and I run so fast for something important. It turns out that I’m here to meet the beauty, Ninth Brother, Ninth Brother, you are still so careless about your job.”
Mu Lingchuan was just about to refute it when he looked at the man who was younger than Mu Lingchuan and said, "Second brother and ninth brother, why do you do this outside? Isn't it a joke for outsiders to see it?"
Second brother? Could this man be the crown prince of Daqi? Why doesn't he look like a good person? This was Xi Duanhong's first impression when he saw Mu Lingye.
Xi Duanhong stared straight at Mu Lingye and looked over, "Whose family does this belong to? It's so unruly."
Mu Lingchuan stood in front of Xi Duanhong, "Second brother, please move." Mu Lingchuan's intention was obvious, he just didn't want Xi Duanhong to come into contact with Mu Lingye.
Mu Lingchuan's strange behavior aroused the confusion of the man and woman on the side, but Mu Lingye followed him in a dignified manner. The man here was worried and the two of them followed, and for a while only Xi Duan was left. Hong and this woman he has never met before.
Xi Duanhong was about to turn around and leave when the woman stopped him, "Your name is Xi Duanhong? The woman that Brother Nine Emperors likes?"
Ahem... Xi Duanhong almost choked on her own saliva. She turned around and looked at the girl in front of her who was younger than herself. "Girl, don't talk nonsense."
"What girl? I am the eleventh princess, Mu Chong." Doctor Mu Chong raised his head proudly, then tilted his head with a harmless smile and asked curiously: "So are you my future royal sister-in-law?" ?”
How could this harmless person say such words that can choke people? Xi Duanhong's mouth twitched and he couldn't hide the look in his eyes that wanted to kill Mu Lingchuan, "A civilian girl is not the sweetheart of the ninth prince, and she will not be the one in the future." She will be the royal sister-in-law of Her Royal Highness the Princess."
"This princess and the tenth brother met the second brother halfway. I saw you two here from a distance. The second brother wanted to see you and brought us here." Mu Chong looked Xi Duanhong up and down, " You look pretty good, and I like it when I see you. I have other brothers, except for the third brother who is married, you can also consider the others."
Xi Duanhong almost left this beautiful world on the spot without being frightened by the words of the princess. She knew that the princess was young and didn't know much, but this wasn't so unreliable...
