Chapter 5
Since there was such a past incident before, Yuan Jin didn't want to deal with this person. So he turned his head and just thought that he didn't know Wei Heng at all.
Unexpectedly, when Wei Heng walked to her, he actually stopped for a while. Then he said to the people around him indifferently: "You guys go first."
Only when those young men left did he face Xue Yuanjin.
This young man is really good-looking and has excellent family background, but what kind of life has Yuan Jin lived in these years? The famous handsome man in the capital, Gu Heng, the Marquis of Wei Yong, is her fiancée, although she has never seen him. Zhu Xun also has a handsome appearance. As for the family background of these people, there is no need to mention it.
Unexpectedly, she wanted to avoid it, but Wei Heng paused and said, "Miss Xue Si."
Yuan Jin glanced at him.
Wei Heng continued to whisper: "No matter what kind of intention you are here, I can only tell you one word. The girl's house... the most important thing is to be reserved and polite. If others don't like you, they don't have to force you."
Yuan Jin smiled when he heard this.
Her smile was a bit strange, both gentle and beautiful, and seemed to be a little ridiculous.
I really don’t know why Xiao Yuanjin likes such a person.
Even if Xiao Yuanjin really likes him, can he humiliate others in public? She is here today. If it were the girl next to him, how should he deal with it?
"Did Master Wei San misunderstand something?" Her tone was faint, "I was watching flowers here, neither disturbing others nor disturbing the young master. I liked or didn't like anything, but I don't know where Master Wei San came from."
"You..." He didn't know that Miss Xue's mouth was so powerful, and his face turned red.
Her current expression seems to be really different from before.
At this moment, a servant ran over on the stone road, called Wei Heng, "Three Young Master", and ran over and said something in his ear panting.
Wei Heng's face changed, and he didn't have time to say anything to Xue Yuanjin, so he hurried out of the pavilion.
The girls of the Xue family who were watching the show looked at each other, not knowing what had happened.
The servant also ran to the nanny in charge and said something. The nanny in charge also became serious and called the ladies in the pavilion: "Are there a distinguished guest passing by here, please follow me to the flower hall first."
Seeing that the nanny in charge was urging her to hurry, the ladies quickly got up and walked out of the pavilion. However, it was too late. A group of people walked up the stone road, as if guards were leading the way. One of them wore a silver crown and a flying fish suit. His eyebrows and eyes were a little gloomy, but he had a gloomy handsomeness, his lips were slightly pursed, and he walked towards the front yard.
When Yuan Jin saw him, his face almost couldn't help but change.
Wei Heng had already walked forward and saluted: "Uncle is coming, why don't you tell me in advance? I can go and pick you up!"
"No, it's just a private matter." The man's voice was also very deserted.
The little ladies here have guessed his identity and stared at him curiously, not daring to say loudly, so they can only discuss in a low voice.
"Who is this person? The show is so big."
Pei Ziqing.
Yuan Jin's hand slowly clenched.
When she first met Pei Ziqing, he was just a frustrated young man. Although he was from a noble family, he was just a humble son who no one valued. At that time, he had suffered from the cold eyes of the world and had never eaten any hardships. There was no show at all, but he was just a silent and low-key person.
Later, she appreciated his talent, supported him, and recommended him to the Empress Dowager. He was indeed talented and actually became the deputy commander of the Jinyiwei. She was very loyal to him, and Pei Ziqing once sacrificed his life to save her.
Unexpectedly, he still betrayed her and the Queen Mother in the end.
Now he is the commander of the Jinyiwei and becomes more and more powerful.
And now she is nothing.
Zhu Xun betrayed her for the position of prince, and she always knew that the Empress Dowager did not like Zhu Xun, and never thought of regulating Zhu Xun, and always wanted to establish the Sixth Prince. If Zhu Xun had been a scheming person since childhood, how could he have not had any other intentions?
But why did Pei Ziqing betray her for?
She had been unable to figure it out, she always thought that she had the kindness of knowing him. She always thought that even if anyone would betray her, he would not.
Reality is a kind of coldness that she could not have imagined.
Pei Ziqing said lightly: "What are you doing when you mix in this pile of powder?"
Wei Heng replied: "It's just a trivial matter."
Pei Ziqing glanced at the little ladies standing behind him. The little ladies were all slightly pale when he saw them, and he was nervous. No matter how good Wei Heng looked, he was just a young man. But Pei Ziqing was different. He was a commander of the Jinyiwei who was better than Duke Ding and a senior official of the second rank.
"You are at the age of getting married. If you like someone, you will bring it back to your mother to see it, so that your mother will not worry about you." Pei Ziqing said, "It seems that he heard you were talking to the girl. Which girl is it?"
Hearing this, Yuan Jin tightened his heart, but his expression was still indifferent.
Wei Heng didn't like her just now, so he didn't say anything. The girls in the Xue family naturally didn't speak at this time, but there was always a lady who had just seen something good, pointing out Yuan Jin: "That's this, the fourth lady of the Xue family!"
Pei Ziqing's eyes fell on her.
Xue Yuanjin didn't look up. He only saw her beautiful eyebrows and eyes, dressed up simply, so simple that she was almost a pair of lilac earrings left, and her soft hair hung on both sides of her snow-white cheeks.
Other ladies showed curiosity or fear on their faces, but only her expression was calm and even a little cold.
He quickly withdrew his gaze and said lightly: "Then you come to the central hall later."
Seeing this, the nanny quickly asked the ladies to follow her to the flower hall first. Pei Ziqing was the commander of the Jinyiwei after all, and he probably didn't like so many people. But before he could think that Yuan Jin had just walked a few steps when he heard another voice coming from behind: "That girl just now, wait."
Yuan Jin just pretended that he didn't hear it, and walked a few more steps faster. But two guards quickly walked up from behind and stopped her. "Girl, stay, Lord Pei told you to wait."
Yuan Jin could only stop and turn around. She felt very complicated, like hatred and indifference.
What did he call her to stop? Can you still tell who she is? So what can you do? Will you find it and then cut her off? Send it to the emperor to execute it in exchange for a higher status?
He looked at her for a long time before he whispered, "Who is she?"
Wei Heng didn't know why his uncle asked her, so he could only say: "She is the fourth wife of the Xue family."
Pei Ziqing looked at her appearance carefully and felt that her appearance was not similar. But her expression just now was extremely similar.
The Xue family? It's just a small family I haven't heard of before.
What he was thinking, how could he think this girl looks a bit like her?
How could she look like Xiao Yuanjin!
That person was the most special existence in his heart. She gave him glory and power, and secret hope and warmth. But for some reason, he really felt sorry for her. For so many years, no other person could stay in his heart, which became his karma.
Probably, no one really thinks she has left.
No one can truly forget her, Danyang County Lord Xiao Yuanjin. Whether it is betrayal or something else, it is more complicated emotions.
His tone became indifferent: "You go."
It is an insult to her to recognize such a woman as her.
Xue Yuanjin ignored the words. Pei Ziqing was the one she chose, and she knew her best. This person was very talented and good at observing words and expressions. In front of him, it would be better to say less and do less so that he would guess his thoughts.
As soon as he said he would leave, she left without looking back.
In the evening, after dinner, the people from Xue's house drove the carriage home.
Xue Yuanshan and his wife got on the carriage and were about what happened today with their wives.
"Some people want to eat swan meat, but they have to see if they look down on you." Xue Yuanyu saw Yuan Jin coming out and said with a sneer, "By the background, it is hard to be a concubine for others. Not to mention that they want to be a real wife, no one wants to be a clerk!"
Yuan Jin did not say a word and went straight into the carriage.
If you refute her, she will be even more excited, and she is not in the mood to care about this kind of person now.
She only regretted that she didn't have a sword in her hand at that time, and that the enemy was in front of her, and she couldn't take revenge. It would be better to stab him to death with one sword.
Seeing that Yuan Jin ignored him, Xue Yuanyu lost interest and retracted her head.
Cui saw his daughter's unhappiness rarely, thinking that she was because of Xue Yuanyu's words, so he comforted her and said, "That's how your two daughters in the second uncle's family speak, just don't care."
Yuan Jin looked at her. Although she didn't care, she was not satisfied with Cui's words. This is the case with Cui's people. When you can get money from their children, you really let her be proud of people outside, and that's not a single daring: "Then don't you care?"
Cui said, "It's just that we are a polite family, and your father is unpromising. Your mother and I... are not the daughters of a serious official family, so we can't compare with others."
Yuan Jin smiled: "Uncle Second Uncle had misapproved his father's article before he became a governor in Shanxi. If it weren't for this passage, how could he be the magistrate now? Now his two daughters have been revenge with grace and have completely forgotten."
Cui sighed again and said, "He is now the magistrate. Your father is just a local temple minister. What can I do?"
Yuan Jin discovered that Cui was actually a very destined person.
Then will she accept her fate? Of course she can't. If she accepts her fate, wouldn't those who killed her wake up in their dreams?
"It won't always be like this." Yuan Jin said lightly.
She picked up the curtain and watched the disappearing dusk outside.
