After saying this, Lu Yunyan took her hand and sat in front of the dressing table. He opened a jewelry box and took out an exquisite hairpin. He smiled and said, "What do you think of this hairpin?"
"Good-looking." All women love beauty, and Xie Hongling is no exception.
"I think it suits you very well." As Lu Yunyan spoke, he picked up the hairpin and inserted it into his black hair.
She was the queen, and before that she was Xuanjun. Xie Hongling was immediately flattered and said in fear: "Empress..."
"Oh, don't move." Lu Yunyan acted seriously. After helping her carefully, he asked with a smile: "How is it? Does it look good? I went out of the palace last time and bought two. This one was specially chosen for you. of."
"But my dear, this hairpin is so precious..."
"What are you talking about? You and I are still talking about this."
The two of them sat together, facing the dressing mirror. Lu Yunyan stroked her shoulder gently, his eyebrows curved: "The red water chestnut is beautiful."
Xie Hongling was a little shy.
It can be seen from this that the relationship between the two is actually close friends. If you don't know, you think they are Lily.
This hairpin is indeed very beautiful, with tassels on it and exquisite and small pendants. Under the long black hair, she shows a classic beauty.
The two best friends seemed to have endless chats. It was not until after noon that Xie Hongling stood up and left.
That night.
In front of the round table, after Lu Yunyan poured a glass of wine for Xiao Yuan, he did not forget to say: "Only one drink."
Xiao Yuan felt helpless for a while: "I have never seen a queen control her husband so strictly."
"Hmph, don't even think about using etiquette to pressure me."
Lu Yunyan said and also opened the topic: "Brother Wang, yesterday Xu Hu beat Xie Hongling's younger brother, did you know."
"What?" Xiao Yuan's hand holding the wine glass paused for a moment. After reacting, he felt strange and said: "This, this is impossible, right?"
So, Lu Yunyan told the whole story.
But after hearing this, Xiao Yuan burst into laughter, put down his wine glass and said, "This guy is interesting."
"You're still laughing. Hong Ling's brother just arrived in Qinzhou and he got punched and got a black eye..." Lu Yunyan complained slightly.
"Okay, okay." Xiao Yuan's smile did not diminish: "So, General Xie came to you with a complaint. Let me tell you, why did Xu Hu complain that he was sick at home today? He has a guilty conscience."
Then he added: "It seems that this man was jealous and had a misunderstanding, but it also shows his feelings for Xie Hongling."
"Then what should we do about this matter? Hongling cannot be wronged." Lu Yunyan said.
Xiao Yuan said: "What else can we do? Let Xu Hu marry her quickly. Everyone will be happy."
"It's a beautiful thought. How can a woman as good as Hong Ling marry just as she wants?" Lu Yunyan said deliberately, but in fact, she also thought so in her heart.
Xiao Yuan was not happy at that time: "What do you mean? Why, the Tiger Marquis is not worthy of your Xie Hongling?"
"What are you talking about from our family?" Lu Yunyan rolled her eyes at him charmingly.
"Haha." Xiao Yuan smiled heartily and said, "I think this is what we will do. We will get married tomorrow with the royal decree. We can't help them, so as not to make any more jokes."
"But, what if Hongling doesn't want to do it? It would be so wronged." Lu Yunyan said slightly worried.
"I know you have a good relationship, but in my opinion, these two people should have feelings for each other. It's just that this layer of window paper has never been pierced. Then Xu Hu is also a big fool." Xiao Yuan pondered for a moment and said: "In this way, you can ask Xie Hongling tomorrow, and you, the Queen of Qin, will be the matchmaker and pull the strings."
"That's... okay." Lu Yunyan did not refuse, because the couple had the same idea.
It is rare for a queen to act as a matchmaker, which also explains the identities of Xu Hu and Xie Hongling.
The next day, Lu Yunyan went to Xie Hongling's house in person.
Upon learning of her arrival, the latter naturally hurried out to greet her. Just as she was about to salute, Lu Yunyan pulled her up and said, "Okay, let's talk in your room."
When the two of them entered the boudoir, Lu Yunyan also pulled her to sit by the bed, and first asked, "How is my brother?"
"It's nothing serious. It's just a minor injury. It will heal in a few days." Xie Hongling said.
"This Xu Hu is really reckless." Lu Yunyan seemed to vent his anger and said: "Hong Ling, don't worry, regarding this matter, the king has severely reprimanded him, and the scolding was not what he wanted. He was fined for half a year and almost demoted."
"Huh, he deserves it." Xie Hongling seemed to be angry and said quickly: "Thank you, empress."
Lu Yunyan smiled slightly: "But having said that, Hong Ling, I'm afraid Xu Hu has already fallen in love with you, otherwise, how could there be such a misunderstanding."
"Empress..." Xie Hongling blushed.
"So tell me, how is he?" Lu Yunyan asked again.
"He, he is just a fool! He acts stupid all day long!" Xie Hongling said angrily.
Since they are close friends in the boudoir, don't you understand? Seeing his angry and shy look, Lu Yunyan already understood and said with a smile: "Then, if the king issues a royal edict granting marriage..."
"Ah? Your Majesty..." Xie Hongling's face turned even redder.
Lu Yunyan quickly reassured: "You and I can talk about anything. Tell me your feelings. If you don't want to get married, I will never let you have any grievances. Marriage is a lifelong event for a woman. I I hope you can be happy throughout your life."
"I...I..." Xie Hongling did not dare to answer easily, lowering her head and speaking like a mosquito.
From the time she and Xu Hu met, he healed her and took care of her, looking at her snow-white skin in a daze, and then later, the two of them started quarreling and stumbling upon each other as soon as they met. It was impossible to say that they were not moved.
At this point in the conversation, there was nothing left to say. Lu Yunyan knew what he was doing, and in order not to make her too embarrassed, he stood up smartly, pulled her and said: "Let's go, I have some free time today, let's go shopping in the market... "
She directly changed the topic, and Xie Hongling's face was already red.
On the other side, the palace study.
Xu Hu was standing below with his head shrugged.
Xiao Yuan looked like he hated iron and said angrily: "Dignified Tiger Marquis, I have never encountered any ferocious enemies on the battlefield. Now, when I meet a woman, I shrink back. This is really not what a man would do." !”
With such a scolding, Xu Hu lowered his head and said dullly: "Then, then Xie Hongling..."
"What this and that!" Xiao Yuan interrupted him angrily: "I ask you, do you like her?"
"This..." Xu Hu blushed and was too hesitant to answer.
Seeing his appearance, Xiao Yuan was angry and funny: "I have asked the queen to talk about this matter. Marry her as soon as possible and make some jokes!"
"Ah? Your Majesty." Xu Hu looked up and beamed with joy.
"Shame!" Xiao Yuan glared at him again.
