Chapter 3 Birthday Banquet (2)

"Sister Xi, since you're back home, hurry up and kowtow to your grandmother."

After saying that, Su Yi led Su Xi to the old lady Su.

"Grandmother, Xi'er greets you. Today is your birthday, and Xi'er specially prepared a birthday gift." Su Xi did not kneel down, but blessed her body.How could she kneel down to an old lady with the majestic Youyue Palace Evil Venerable.If it wasn't for the sake of venting anger on behalf of the original owner, she wouldn't bother to step into the gate of the Su residence.

"Come up."

Two men in black walked forward carrying the birthday gift, and the red silk was lifted, exposing the golden longevity tree half a person's height to the air.

All the guests secretly thought in their hearts, this young lady from Su Mansion is really generous today.The value of such a golden longevity tree is definitely not less than 10 taels.

Everyone looked at Su Xi with a hint of meaning in their eyes.

Up front, Mrs. Su stared straight at her eyes, and couldn't hide the smile on her face.

"Sister Xi, come, come to grandma quickly, I haven't seen you for a few years, let grandma see how you look."

A mocking sneer escaped from the corner of Su Xi's lips, Old Madam Su still only liked yellow and white things as before.She moved slightly in lotus steps and walked to Old Madam Su.

The old lady Su reached out to grab Su Xi's hand, but Su Xi raised her hand to cover her mouth and pretended to yawn to avoid it.At the same time, he winked at Bai Shu who walked into the main hall.

"Old madam, in order to deliver the birthday gift before your birthday, the master traveled all the way without stopping, and finally caught up. Poor master, he couldn't eat or sleep well, and he lost a lot of weight. "

Bai Shu's words almost hinted at Mrs. Su that Su Xi couldn't rest well for the journey, so she should be arranged to go down and have a good rest.

The old lady Su withdrew her hand, met Su Xi's bloodshot eyes, and looked at the golden longevity tree, and quickly ordered Su Zhong to take Su Xi to the Qing Fu Yuan to rest.

Qing Fu Yuan was originally the courtyard where Su Xi's mother lived.

A clump of green bamboo and a few clumps of light blue hydrangeas are planted in the corner.The interior of the house is elegantly decorated, with ink paintings of four gentlemen of plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum hanging on the wall, signed with the word "Dongli".

"Go down."

Su Xi waved his hand, Su Zhong stepped back, and Bai Shu stood guard at the door.

At this time, Su Xi stood in front of the ink painting, looking at the place where the signature was signed and lost in thought.

In the original owner's memory, the original owner's mother, Lan Fengying, would cry secretly at these four paintings by herself every night of the full moon.

"Bai Shu, send Bai Sheng a message and ask him to find out who Dong Li is?"

"Yes, master."

After Bai Shu left, Su Xi leaned on the soft couch, closed his eyes and meditated.

A slight sound sounded, Su Xi kept his eyes open, picked up the teacup on the small table and threw it towards the source of the sound.

The sound of the teacup falling to the ground did not arrive, but a clear voice came instead.

"I never expected that the dignified girl of the Su family is actually a master."

As if hearing the voice before, Su Xi opened his eyes and looked up lazily.

"It's you." Su Xi was secretly surprised, the majestic Xuanming Pavilion Master didn't wander around the rivers and lakes, why did he follow her to her boudoir?
"You don't seem to want to see me." Feng Yuan, who entered through the window, walked to the side of the couch, sat down across the small table opposite Su Xi, and gently placed the teacup in his hand on the small table.

Su Xi rolled her eyes, knowing that she should disappear quickly.

"An uninvited guest broke into the boudoir without the owner's permission. Do you expect me to set off firecrackers to welcome you?"

"I've always been a low-key person, high-profile things like setting off firecrackers are not suitable for me." After a pause, Feng Yuan continued: "Aren't you curious why I appear here?"

"Not curious." Hurry up and go.

"I saw you in the main hall just now, and I just realized that you are the idiot in Su's mansion who betrothed me since childhood." After receiving the news that the eldest girl of Su's mansion had returned to the mansion, Feng Yuan originally planned to come over and withdraw the marriage. .Unexpectedly, his fiancée Cheng Cheng was the woman who helped him at the inn, Feng Yuan suddenly changed his mind.

"puff!"

After taking a sip of tea, Su Xi sprayed tea directly on Feng Yuan's face, his voice raised slightly.

"What did you just say, are you saying it again?" Su Xi was shocked.Although the person in front of her looks monstrous, she never thought of marrying herself to this person.

"You don't know?" Feng Yuan raised his eyebrows.Seeing a different expression on Su Xi's plain and watery face, his depressed mood disappeared without a trace in an instant.

If I knew it, I would be so surprised. Su Xi's face changed slightly, and he looked at Feng Yuan suspiciously, "Who the hell are you? How could I make a baby kiss with you since childhood? You can't be fooled by me, right?"

"I didn't have time to introduce myself last time. Today I will officially introduce myself. My surname is Feng Mingyuan, I am 22 years old, the third prince of Tianfeng Kingdom, and was canonized as King Rui at the age of 15." Feng Yuan said.

"I heard that King Rui suffered from a serious illness since he was a child, and he would not live to be 30 years old. It seems that the rumors cannot be trusted." Su Xi stood up, walked in front of Feng Yuan, and scanned him from head to toe with sharp eyes.This person looks pale, but in fact his face has been treated.As for his frail body, it was verified last time at the inn, it is fake.

Feng Yuan sat calmly, letting Su Xi scrutinize her, "The rumors are indeed unbelievable. It is said that the eldest girl of the Su family was a fool since she was a child, so it turned out to be a lie."

Su Xi didn't explain.

"Tell me what's going on with the baby's marriage first?" Su Xi was more concerned about this issue, and only after she understood it could she find a way to cancel the marriage.

"Your mother saved the life of my mother and concubine. In order to repay the life-saving grace, when your mother was pregnant with you, the imperial doctor checked the pulse and confirmed that the baby in her belly was a girl. The two exchanged tokens to make this marriage."

"What's the token?" Su Xi asked.

"A pair of dragon and phoenix jade pendants. I have a phoenix pendant, and you have a dragon pendant." While speaking, Feng Yuan took off the phoenix pendant hanging from his waist, "This is the phoenix pendant."

Su Xi took Fengpei and looked at it, "You take the engagement token with you, isn't it here to call off the engagement today?"

Not to mention, Su Xi has the truth.

A trace of embarrassment slipped across Feng Yuan's face, "Originally, but I changed my mind after seeing you."

"Thank you for looking up to me. But I'm used to being alone, and I don't intend to marry in this life, so I will take back this phoenix pendant today." Su Xi pretended to put the phoenix pendant in his sleeve, but in fact, with a thought, he threw the jade pendant directly. into the space.

"This is the dragon pendant, return it to you." Su Xi tore off the jade pendant worn around his neck since he was a child, and put it in front of Feng Yuan, "Return the token. From today onwards, the marriage between you and me will be void."

"The two of us really have the same thoughts. I have never planned to marry a wife in my life. Look, we two are so suitable to be friends. How about you being my confidante and I being your blue confidante?" Feng Yuan put away the dragon. Pei, with an expression as indifferent as water, a trace of calculation quickly slipped across his eyes.

"Not much. I'm going to rest, you can get out." Su Xi began to give the order to evict the guest.
