Seeing Shen Zhuo's expression changed drastically, Xiao Yi's expression became a little better.
"When I was passing by just now, I met Miss Zhang Er and several others. I heard them talking and it seemed that they were waiting for someone." Xiao Yi said.
Didn't we agree to do so in the future? Why are they gathered together now? Could it be that things have changed?
Shen Zhuo couldn't help but feel anxious and wanted to say goodbye to the two of them immediately and rush to Yuquan Pavilion to have a look. She was about to speak when she suddenly thought that she hadn't found the person she was looking for yet! If we really rush over like this, the whole plan will be ruined.
Should I go there right away, or go find someone first?
When Shen Zhuo felt anxious, his mind became confused, and when his mind became confused, his face showed annoyance.
"Jiaojiao, what happened?" Zhong Shaoqing looked at Shen Zhuo with concern in his eyes.
"Well, yes, there is..." Shen Zhuo nodded absentmindedly.
Suddenly, Shen Zhuo stopped talking, his eyes fixed on Zhong Shaoqing, and he was stunned. Then, she turned her head and looked at Xiao Yi who was standing aside. Gradually, her eyes brightened.
She is highly respected, well-known, has a high position and has a good reputation...well, she is not a lady, but time is too late, so she will make do with it.
Shen Zhuo's eyes turned to Xiao Yi and Zhong Shaoqing a few times, then the corners of his mouth curled up, with a sweet smile on his face.
As soon as Shen Zhuo's smile appeared, Xiao Yi knew that she was going to ask for something. When Zhong Shaoqing looked at the familiar smile, her heart trembled, knowing that she had another crooked idea.
"My daughter does have an appointment with Jingyi. Since His Highness knows where she is, I would like to trouble His Highness to give me directions."
When Shen Zhuoqiao smiles sweetly, there will be two dimples on his cheeks, his long eyelashes are fluttering constantly, and there is a bit of unconscious coquettishness in his expression, making him look particularly well-behaved.
Xiao Yi glanced at her for a few times, then lowered his eyes, covered his expression, and said softly: "Let's go."
Xiao Yi turned around silently and walked towards the way he came.
"Brother Zhong, let's go together." Shen Zhuo pulled Zhong Shaoqing's sleeve again.
Xiao Yi paused, stopped, looked back and glanced at Shen Zhuo, lightly.
Shen Zhuo's hand holding Zhong Shaoqing's sleeve suddenly shrank and then let go. Xiao Yi's expression was very calm, but Shen Zhuo felt as if the back of his hand was burned by fire.
Shen Zhuo suddenly had a ridiculous idea in his heart. If she tried to pull Zhong Shaoqing away again, Xiao Yi would probably teach him a lesson.
Although Xiao Yi didn't like her pulling on his sleeves in his previous life, but now it's not him she's pulling on, so why is he keeping a straight face? In his previous life, I didn't think he was a person who paid much attention to etiquette. Besides, what does it have to do with him whether he practices etiquette or not? !
But the internal slander was the internal slander, but Shen Zhuo also restrained his too casual behavior, followed the two of them in a polite manner, and never reached out to drag Zhong Shaoqing.
The road Xiao Yi led was exactly the way to Yuquan Pavilion.
Yuquan Pavilion is a hot spring in Meiyuan. Although there is no hot spring in the pavilion, as long as someone from the host family comes, hot water will always be boiled to ensure that the need for bathing is met at any time.
The hot spring pool in Yuquan Pavilion is an open-air hot spring pool built manually according to the terrain. The pool is hidden deep in the dense plum forest. In the distance is the white snow, near is the brilliant plum blossoms, and there are bursts of fragrance... ..It is indeed a good place for a winter break. Usually the children of the Zhang family like to come here to relax in winter.
However, if there are large gatherings, this place will not be open to the public. After all, it is too private to be open to the public.
The steward of Yuquan Pavilion received an order early this morning to prepare hot soup, saying that the second lady of the eldest room wanted it.
When Xiao Yi led Shen Zhuo and Zhong Shaoqing to Yuquan Pavilion, Lu Waner and the others were pacing back and forth outside Yuquan Pavilion.
"Why hasn't Jiaojiao come yet?" Zhang Jingyi looked a little anxious.
"Taohong has already gone to look for her. She should be here soon." Lu Waner kept looking into the distance.
"Jinglian, why did you say you moved so fast? Didn't you agree to do it in the future?" Xiao Yushu glared at Meng Qinglian dissatisfied.
"Can you blame me?!" Meng Qinglian opened her eyes slightly, stared back, and said angrily, "I haven't even made a move yet, I just waved in front of the prince twice, and he chased me. If I ran slower, He’s going to jump on me!”
"Princess, please don't accuse my young lady unjustly. If my young lady hadn't run so fast, I would have been captured by the prince." Meng Jinglian's personal maid, Zhi Yuan, couldn't help but feel sorry for her young lady.
Xiao Yushu glanced at Meng Qinglian, smiled softly, and said slowly to Zhiyuan: "I really don't blame Mr. Wang for this matter."
"With your young lady's appearance, as long as she wants to, it will be difficult for her to resist the gods and Buddhas."
"Xiao! Yu! Shu! Are you tired of living? See if I don't tear up your stinky mouth!"
With that said, Meng Qinglian pounced on Xiao Yushu, reaching out to pinch her face. Xiao Yushu didn't show any weakness and rolled up her sleeves to hold Meng Qinglian up. The two of them were about to fight. I saw Lu Wan'er reaching out and skillfully holding one in each hand to separate the two.
"Can you two rest for a day?" Wen Mingyun stroked her forehead and said with a headache, "With such good energy, why not think about what happened in Yuquan Pavilion. It's time for everyone to go in and have a cup of tea. If Jiaojiao doesn't bring this person here, This matter is hanging in the balance today.”
"Coming, coming~~~" Zhang Jingyi suddenly shouted in a low voice and pointed forward. With sharp eyes, she saw several people coming towards this place in the distance, including Shen Zhuo.
The other people stopped fighting and looked over. It doesn't matter if you don't see it, but when you see it, you are all dumbfounded.
Why did Shen Zhuo bring two men here, one of whom was the seventh prince! ! !
Where is the promised noble lady from Kyoto? Where is the promised and respected matron?
Seeing Shen Zhuo and the others getting closer and closer, they couldn't help but look at each other, not knowing what to do for a moment.
Wen Mingyun made a decision immediately: "No matter what, let's disperse as planned. As for the next thing, everyone will act according to the situation."
So they took their respective maids and dispersed. After a while, there was only a pile of footprints under the tree that was bustling just now.
Xiao Yi, who was walking, suddenly raised his eyelids, glanced ahead, and then continued to move forward slowly and calmly. At the same time, Zhong Shaoqing also looked forward, and then glanced at Shen Zhuo thoughtfully.
Sensing Zhong Shaoqing's slightly questioning gaze, Shen Zhuo was a little confused. She had to turn her head and smile at Zhong Shaoqing again. Her face was as bright as a flower, looking delicate. Zhong Shaoqing was silent, said nothing, and continued walking.
"Ah~~~~~~~"
Just as a few people were approaching Yuquan Pavilion, a sharp, panicked woman's scream resounded throughout the sky.
