Too Reckless
Chapter 19: fan the flames
In February, the spring is bright. Thousands of sails gather along the streets and rivers of Linhefang. Merchants and soldiers from south to north dock here, stop for a while, and then quickly run to the next place in the journey of life.
Facing the small wine shop on the river bank, the banners swayed in the spring breeze.
Tang Jingshen, dressed in dark Luo Qun, with her arms around her chest, looked a little bored at the people coming and going in front of the door.
Being alone, no matter how many people come in front of the door, it will not leave too many impressions. The meaning of 'passing off' is like this.
When there are no guests in the restaurant, Tang Jingxuan often stays in a daze like this, watching the setting sun set in the west, watching the clouds roll in the clouds, and his thoughts wander like clouds in the sky, changing and changing.
But today I don't know why, when I was in a daze, my mind was a bit concentrated, and I was always thinking of one person.
Tang Jingxuan has met many people, but few people he knows well. He has some interactions with Zuo Lingquan, and the chat is considered speculative. Knowing that he is running for the consort today, his mind is inevitably placed in the Qiyuntai in Dongcheng.
Although Zuo Lingquan didn't want to be the concubine, Tang Jing still felt that Zuo Lingquan was very suitable to be the concubine.
Because Zuo Lingquan's character, appearance, and family background are all so good, she really can't imagine that, apart from Her Royal Highness, the eldest princess, who is famous all over the capital, there is another woman worthy of Zuo Lingquan.
"Ugh…"
Tang Jing sighed faintly, and wanted to go to Yuntai to watch the fun, but because of her identity, she obviously couldn't go.
However, when I looked at it, I found that in the middle of the street, there was an old hunter with a knife walking slowly.
Tang Jing's face was overjoyed, and she was refreshed. She returned to the restaurant to get a pot of warm wine, and when the old arrester passed by the door, he greeted in a crisp voice:
"Old Zhang, are you patrolling the streets at noon, come in and sit down, please have two cups."
Zhang Kuai was here for the sake of the wine, so naturally he didn't refuse, he entered the wine shop and sat down at the window, hehe said with a smile:
"Jingxun, you are a little money fan, why are you being so polite today?"
Tang Jingxuan is indeed a bit of a financial fanatic. After all, living alone, if you don't plan carefully, how can you open the door and do business? However, Tang Jingxuan was definitely not happy to be told that he was obsessed with money, and put the jug heavily on the table:
"Hey? I invited you to drink less before? You brought your colleagues here. When did I not give you a discount?"
"That's true."
Lao Zhang was used to this tone for a long time, he smiled, and took the jug and poured a bowl.
Tang Jing snorted softly, sat down beside the warm wine stove, rolled her eyes, and asked:
"Old Zhang, do you know about the choice of a concubine at Qiyuntai?"
Lao Zhang and Tang Jingxun's father are old friends. They grew up watching Tang Jingxuan growing up, and knew this girl's character too well. He picked up the wine bowl and made a casual appearance:
"Old Zhang, what I'm doing is patrolling the streets. There are so many noble people in Qiyuntai, so I'm naturally present. This is not just finished, come and take a rest."
Tang Jing's eyes lit up, she got up quickly, took another plate of peanuts and put it on the table, and sat down opposite the table:
"What happened? Which son became the concubine?"
Lao Zhang took a sip of yellow wine and said, "This is a long story, I can't finish it without two pots of wine."
"Hey-"
Tang Jing squinted and wanted to curse, but thinking about Zuo Lingquan made her heart itch. Finally, she got up and took another pot and put it on the table:
"Speak quickly."
Only then was Old Zhang satisfied, and he said:
"Who else can I choose? The Zuo Gongzi I met earlier, with an innocent family and good looks, and Her Royal Highness the princess has such a bright eye, so I naturally chose him."
Although Tang Jingxuan had expected Zuo Lingquan to be elected, she was a little surprised to confirm it at this time. After she nodded slowly, her face changed again, and she picked up the wine she just put down:
"A sentence is worth two pots of wine? I feel like I'm at a loss for half a pot..."
"Eh, wait, it's not over yet."
Lao Zhang raised his hand, motioned Tang Jingxuan to put down the wine, and continued:
"There is no suspense about the concubine, but what happened after the concubine was selected is interesting."
Tang Jingxuan blinked, put the wine back, and asked:
"What? Zuo Gongzi didn't want to be a concubine, so he withdrew from the marriage of the eldest princess on the spot?"
Having said this, Tang Jing was in a hurry and stood up:
"He won't be dragged out and beheaded, will he?"
"What are you thinking about? Young Master Zuo is not stupid."
Lao Zhang sneered, shook his head and said, "Young Master Zuo is a commoner after all, and when His Highness the Princess ordered him, he couldn't refuse. However, your immortal second grandfather ran out to talk about it again today."
When Tang Jingxun heard this, her face darkened, and she thought about the woman's tongue-in-cheek yesterday. She guessed something:
"That old immortal, talking nonsense about the big matter of the Zuo Gongzi?"
Lao Zhang lives in Linhefang, and he helped Tang Jingxun find someone to talk about the fight for family property back then. Naturally, he didn't like the Chen family:
"Yeah, it's not clear that you and Zuo Gongzi spend the night together, and you can't be the concubine."
Snapped-
Tang Jingxun patted the table lightly with her hand, annoyed that Liu's eyebrows stood upright, she wanted to scold a few words, but she was worried that rumors would spread outside. Hastily asked:
"How did Young Master Zuo respond?"
"How else can you respond, you still don't know Zuo Gongzi's character?"
Tang Jingxun nodded slowly. Although she had only been in contact with Zuo Lingquan for a few days, she knew very well that Zuo Lingquan was a person and would never be slandered.
"That's good, the Chen family will definitely not forgive, right? Did the princess misunderstand?"
Old Zhang chuckled, his eyes a little weird:
"Lonely man and widow stayed for one night, even if Zuo Gongzi has a hundred mouths, how can he explain it clearly. The princess can't figure out the truth, but the princess didn't misunderstand, and..."
Tang Jingxun listened attentively, only to find that Lao Zhang was cheating, she glared again:
"What else? Don't say I poured the wine."
"I also sent a message, saying that if Young Master Zuo is willing, he can take you into the door together. The princess will be compatible with your sisters in the future, so that Young Master Zuo will not be embarrassed."
Tang Jing's expression was stunned, and she was trying to understand the meaning of these words for a long time, a little unbelievable:
"Your Highness the Princess is so generous? If I have an affair with Young Master Zuo, are you willing to take me in as well?"
Lao Zhang nodded: "Yes, Jingxuan, would you like to?"
Tang Jing frowned and really thought about it, but she answered quickly:
"What a joke, I and Zuo Gongzi are innocent, and we really agreed. Isn't it true that I have an affair with him, and he promised that I would not agree... But I am a market woman, and it seems that I can't refuse... "
Thinking of this, Tang Jingshen's eyes became anxious:
"Young Master Zuo won't really agree, right? How could he do this! I won't marry."
Lao Zhang's face was full of smiles, and he joked: "How can you do that? Zuo Gongzi is upright and honest, how can he make fun of himself and your reputation."
Tang Jingxun secretly let out a sigh of relief—it's almost...
"Furthermore, you are a good-looking girl. Although you look good, you are several years older than the son of Ren Zuo. The noble son who came from a noble family is not very handsome, and he probably doesn't look down on you. Naturally, he did not agree. "
?
The lethality of 'dislike' to women is not ordinary.
Tang Jing's face stiffened slightly, and she sat up straighter: "Don't talk nonsense, what's wrong with me? I'm just a little older than Mr. Zuo. If he doesn't like me, why would he come to the door to drink again and again?"
Lao Zhang knew this would be the reaction, after all, women's families are like this. He continued to fan the flames:
"There are many people who drink over and over again. That's because the wine is good, not you. Today, Her Royal Highness the princess has spoken, and Zuo Gongzi can take you back with a nod. People just don't. "
"he…"
Tang Jing squinted, and was really surrounded by Lao Zhang. She was so angry that she even blamed Zuo Lingquan a little.
However, Tang Jingxuan is not a stupid girl either. Just when she was looking for evidence to prove that Zuo Lingquan likes her, she suddenly came across again - what am I doing? Still want to prove that Zuo Lingquan likes himself?
Thinking of this, Tang Jingxuan understood that Lao Zhang was deliberately teasing her, and she slapped the table:
"You immortal, you have nothing to do, right? Young Master Ren Zuo has nothing to do with me, so naturally he won't agree to this absurd thing. What does it have to do with whether you look at it or not?"
After speaking, Tang Jingxuan stopped paying attention to Lao Zhang, got up and picked up the broom to sweep the floor, trying to sweep Lao Zhang out.
Cha Cha Cha Cha —
Old Zhang was just joking. Seeing that Tang Jing was not fooled, he didn't say anything. He drank the wine in his glass and got up and went out.
Although Tang Jingxuan was not fooled, she had to say that Lao Zhang's remarks were still very irritating - she has a daughter's family.
Zuo Lingquan didn't even pick her up if she could get close to the door. Tang Jingxuan knew that Zuo Lingquan was just saying that because of his upright personality, but there was a strange idea in his heart - in case there was a lost reason, it was because Zuo Lingquan really didn't like it. And me?
There must be a reason why you don't like it. Sister, although I don't have any other thoughts about you, there is nothing bad about it...
Tang Jingxuan held a broom and went back and forth in the restaurant, wanting to throw this inexplicable thought away, but the woman's mind became active, it was really uncontrollable. Before she could recover from her wild thoughts, she heard footsteps at the door and a familiar voice:
"Miss Tang?"
Tang Jingxuan froze all over, and instinctively stood up straight, feeling a little guilty. But fortunately, he quickly reacted, looked back at the door, and showed a smile:
"Little Zuo, are you here?"
Outside the restaurant, Zuo Lingquan, who had just come out of Zuo Mansion, stood at the door and watched, and noticed Tang Jingxun's abnormal reaction. dissatisfied. He explained:
"There was a bit of a misunderstanding on Yuntai in the morning, but I've made it clear. I came here to apologize to Sister Tang. The matter started because of me..."
Tang Jingxuan heard it from Lao Zhang, so he naturally didn't need Zuo Lingquan to repeat it. Just now being fanned by Lao Zhang, Tang Jingxuan was unavoidably suspicious that "Zuo Lingquan can't look at her", so that his eyes changed a little when he looked at Zuo Lingquan.
But the two met by chance and were innocent. No matter how curious Tang Jing was in her heart, she couldn't ask her face to face, 'Can you see me? ', if you ask if it's okay, it's okay.
Tang Jing was silent for a long time, afraid of being seen, and finally made a lukewarm appearance:
"It's okay, just make it clear. Don't always run to my sister in the future, and people will think about what to do if you get crooked. I don't have the habit of eating young grass, so I don't mean anything to you."
Zuo Lingquan was a little inexplicable: "Sister Tang and I are innocent, and there is no point in it. The princess helped to clarify the matter. If I dare not come, wouldn't I appear guilty of being a thief?"
Tang Jing was at a loss for words for a while, and after scolding the old broken mouth secretly in her heart, she calmed down, suppressed her thoughts, and her face softened:
"Well... I mean, don't come in these two days, you and I are innocent, and you can't bite the bullet and let people talk to you. You have just been elected as the concubine, and the limelight is booming. There must be a lot of people who pay attention to you. It's past, it's not too late to take care of my sister's business."
Zuo Lingquan also meant the same thing. Seeing this, he didn't say much. He raised his hand and said goodbye:
"I have to go to Xihuang Valley for a few days, then I'll have a drink after a while."
Tang Jing nodded with a smile, and walked to the door to see him off. After Zuo Lingquan walked away, her brows wrinkled again, and she went back and forth with a broom. This question in my heart that is hard to say, looks like it will take a long time to hold back...
