After drinking that glass of wine, Nangong Jinhong put the wine glass firmly on the table in front of him, then raised his head to look at Yang Wanyun and Mrs. Hanyu. An indescribable sense of oppression appeared in his smile: "Now, the wine has been drunk, should Lord Yang tell me?"
Yang Wanyun also smiled, his eyes twitched slightly, and said, "It seems that Lord Nangong came to Yang's mansion today, not to come to the banquet, but it seems that he came for that person that day?"
Nangong Jinhong smiled faintly: "My subordinates set up checkpoints on the official road to check the pedestrians and protect the safety of the capital. Lord Yang personally came out to pick up the man that day. Although Lord Yang's car driver and my subordinates dared not investigate, I could only hold him accountable."
"Accountability? Could it be that Lord Nangong already knows who is the person in the carriage?"
"Haha, Lord Yang, do you know who that person is?"
“…”
“…”
The two of them were frozen somewhere again.
I don't know if Nangong Jinhong was sure that it was me on the carriage, but what he said just now seemed like a warning, which made Yang Wanyun and Mrs. Hanyu behind her look slightly up.
My identity is very clear, but no matter which camp I go to, it is quite special. What Nangong Jinhong said to Yang Wanyun just now was asking, which was more like a threat - if someone else, or to be precise, the emperor knew that I had been hiding in the Yang Mansion, then how would the emperor treat Yang Wanyun?
In the past, I was a fugitive who escaped from the palace, and now I am a member of the rebellious forces in Jiangnan!
When Yang Wanyun picked me up to Beijing before, it was impossible for him to have thought of this, so I have lived in seclusion these days and no one knows my whereabouts. But now Nangong Jinhong suddenly said this. If my whereabouts are revealed, the troubles of the Yang family will be really great.
Just when my breathing became a little rapid, I saw Yang Wanyun laughing.
He reached out and took the wine pot from Mrs. Hanyu's hand, slowly poured the wine into the empty wine glass in front of Nangong Jinhong, and said lightly: "Sir Nangong, you set up a checkpoint on the official road for inspection. Today, I came to my mansion to ask for someone again, Lord Nangong." He smiled and raised his head and looked directly into Nangong Jinhong's eyes: "Do you know, who is that person?"
Nangong Jinhong was slightly stunned.
Yang Wanyun lowered his voice and said, "These days, my Yang Mansion is full of people. I think Lord Nangong is determined to win that person. But I want to ask Lord Nangong, today you are so generous to come to my birthday party to take accountability. Where do you want to take that person?"
“…”
"Is it sent to the palace?"
“…”
"Or it is your Lord Nangong's mansion?"
Nangong Jinhong's face became heavier and he was already speechless by this time, and he and Yang Wanyun looked at each other in a close distance. Although the scene was relatively peaceful, I could almost feel the invisible spark from their eyes.
I have been staying in the Yang Mansion and know nothing about the outside world. Unexpectedly, the people of Nangong Jinhong have been around the Yang Mansion these days.
It seems that as Yang Wanyun said, he is determined to achieve it.
At this time, Nangong Jinhong's eyes flashed, and he reached out and picked up the wine glass again. The wine was rippling, and the water was reflected in the eyes of the two of them. He slowly said: "Where that person should go, it has nothing to do with Lord Yang."
“…”
"Mr. Yang, I shouldn't have come to discuss business affairs at your birthday party today. Now, I will punish me with a drink of wine. After the birthday party, I will take the man away and ask Mr. Yang not to make things difficult for me. After all--" He turned around and glanced at the guests Yunyun in the hall: "For so many guests, Lord Yang doesn't want to hurt the harmony, right?"
Yang Wanyun's face darkened.
And my heart sank.
Nangong Jinhong's meaning is already very clear. He must take me away after the birthday party, otherwise, the matter will start and the fact that I am hiding in the Yang Mansion will be exposed will not be of any benefit to Yang Wanyun's family.
He said that he was quite like both jade and stones burning and was trying to force each other with his power.
This time, Yang Wanyun didn't say anything, and Mrs. Hanyu's face, sitting behind him, slowly sank.
Her eyes subconsciously looked at me.
Caiwei said softly behind her: "Madam, what should we do?"
“…”
"We, do you want to leave?"
I bit my lower lip without saying anything. Caiwei became even more anxious and said softly: "Is that official, is it just to arrest us? If the birthday party is over, he will catch us! Let's go!"
I shook my head gently.
If I guess correctly, he had already allowed someone to completely surround the Yang Mansion today and then show up at the birthday party.
Go out now and you will undoubtedly fall into the trap.
After hearing what I said, Caiwei's cold sweat came out and she said, "Then, what should we do? We will be arrested by him later on when the birthday party is over!"
I didn't say anything, but just frowned deeply. Just as my mind was constantly surging, Yang Wanyun seemed to have decided something, stood up and said to all the guests in the hall: "Seat start!"
As soon as the words came, the music that had stopped around us started to scatter the already tense atmosphere. Although the guests in the hall knew that things were a little strange, the host had already spoken out, and they couldn't ask anything anymore, so they raised their glasses to celebrate and drank happily. Soon, the atmosphere in the hall became lively again.
I watched Nangong Jinhong and Yang Wanyun sit opposite each other and toast each other with a glass of wine.
At this moment, the door behind us was opened. When I looked back, I saw the maid who had just taken us to appear at the door again and said to me: "Miss."
I looked back at her.
Her expression was a little nervous and she said softly: "Mrs. Ask the lady if she wants to go to the backyard first--uh, rest."
I thought about it and laughed. In fact, it was the same wherever I went in this mansion at this time. After all, Nangong Jinhong came prepared.
So, he shook his head and said, "Forget it, I'll just enjoy it here."
After saying that, he sat there.
Although the atmosphere was a bit weird, the musicians did not cut corners at all. The music was silent, and the sound was ups and downs, echoing in the hall.
Just as we were drinking in the hall, suddenly, the emcee outside whispered again—
“A guest is here!”
At this moment, even Yang Wanyun and Nangong Jinhong were stunned.
Chapter completed!
