Concubine Hui Gui instantly turned her anger into joy, Yingying bowed her hand and grabbed Nangong Rang's arm: "Your Majesty's kindness and generosity are the blessings of all people, but you should also let these palace people wink. Your Majesty is just right. , the two princesses were still thinking of you just now."
Qi Yan bowed her head and knelt on the ground, secretly saying: This Concubine Hui is a delicate face, so it is no wonder that she was ordered to hold Feng Yin on her behalf.
After Nangong Rang sat down, he waved his hand: "You guys too, get up."
"Thank you, Father."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Nangong Rang looked at Qi Yan, who was the only one who called him "Your Majesty": "It's time to change his name to the emperor."
Qi Yan bowed down in fear: "Chen, my son... I am rude and disrespectful, the father and emperor forgive me."
"Okay, get up."
"Thank you, Father."
Nangong Rang looked at Nangong Shunv: "Why is Princess Zhuohua's face so bad?"
Nangong Shunv's eyes were red, she forcibly forced her tears back, and whispered, "My son is feeling the cold, and Lao father is worried."
Concubine Hui Gui whispered a few words in Nangong Rang's ear, the latter frowned and looked at Lu Zhongxing.
Nangong Jingnu took her sister's hand and said with concern: "Second sister is ill? Has it been passed on to the imperial doctor?"
Nangong Rang waved his hand: "Forget it, I'm a little tired just now. You go back with your concubine to see your mother and concubine. Jing Nv will also take her concubine to walk around. In the evening, I have prepared a return banquet for your sisters. Just a few days in the palace."
"Thank you, Father."
The four got up and retire, and Nangong asked Concubine Hui: "Is this true?"
Concubine Hui Gui knelt in front of Nangong Rang: "A minister and concubine of such a major event would never dare to speak falsely? Xu is... Princess Zhuohua is ill, and the concubine is so sympathetic that she did not perform the courtesy of Duke Zhou."
After entering the palace today, the two princesses presented a brocade box to Concubine Hui for inspection, but the white silk handkerchief of the Nangong Shunv was pure and flawless and did not show any redness!
Concubine Hui looked at Nangong Rang in embarrassment: "Your Majesty, Zongzheng Temple will send someone to invite the silk handkerchiefs of the two His Royal Highnesses in a while, what should I do for the concubine?"
Nangong Rang pondered for a while: "Are you sure you are not mistaken?" Nangong Rang had even thought of a solution for Nangong Jingnu, but he never dreamed that the person who failed to hand in the red silk handkerchief on the day of returning home would be Nangong Jingnu!
"These important matters are related to the royal family, how could the concubine make a mistake? This... I also ask Your Majesty to show me."
Nangong Rang took a deep breath and said coldly, "Leave it to Zongzheng Temple as it is."
"… Yes."
After leaving the main hall, Nangong Jingnu screened out the palace maid and pulled the hand of Nangong's concubine. Qi Yan followed them not far or near, but Lu Zhongxing, who was a military attache, was a long way behind.
"Second sister, shall I accompany you to see Empress Zhaorong?"
Nangong Shunv shook her head: "When I go back to the door today, how can there be a reason for the daughter-in-law to visit the concubine? The royal father will be angry if he finds out."
Nangong Jingnu shook Nangong Shunv's arm: "But I miss the second sister~, the second sister will have to sit at Weiyang Palace later~"
"Quiet girl..."
Walking to a secluded palace road, Lu Zhongxing suddenly quickened his pace, came behind the two women and called, "Your Highness, please stay."
Nangong Jingnu turned around and called out sweetly, "Brother-in-law."
Lu Zhongxing's eyes sank, and he clasped his fists and said, "His Royal Highness Zhuohua, I haven't seen my brother for several days. I wonder if you can let me leave for half a day?"
The blood on Nangong Shu's face was completely lost, but she straightened her waist gracefully: "The concubine will do what she wants."
"Farewell!" Lu Zhongxing turned around and left, Nangong Jingnu frowned slightly and shouted softly, "Wait!"
Lu Zhongxing paused, but took another step forward.
Nangong Jingnv looked at Lu Zhongxing's back in disbelief: "How could he not accompany the second sister to visit his biological mother when he returned to the door in three dynasties?"
Nangong Shun replied lightly: "Let him go."
Nangong Jingnu looked at her sister, her dark eyebrows wrinkled deeper and deeper, and anger welled up in her dark eyes: "Second sister, did Lu Zhongxing bully you?"
Nangong Shunv shook her head: "Jingnv, let's go."
Nangong Jingnu said resolutely: "No! How dare he despise you so much when the three dynasties are returning to the door today? People think that my daughter of Nangong's family can be manipulated by others! The second sister is a good-natured person, but I am not!"
"Quiet girl!"
"Second sister, wait, I must have a theory with him!"
Nangong Jingnu picked up the hem of the palace dress and ran away, Nangong Shunv opened her mouth, but it could only be turned into a silent sigh.
Qi Yan lowered her eyes and took a few steps back. Nangong Shunv also turned her back and looked up at the gray sky outside the palace walls.
The cold wind is cold and everything is desolate, but Nangong Shunv's heart is colder than this winter.
In the hall just now, Nangong Shunv recognized Qi Yan as the student who bumped into her that day, and she couldn't help but marvel at the wonder of fate: Jingnv kicked this man and grabbed his sleeve. If you don't let it go, it turns into a marriage.
I don't know if this person knows: the little boy who used to "kill on the street" became his wife
Thin white smoke wafted out of Nangong Shu Nu's mouth, and dissipated as the cold wind flew away.
"Be nice to my sister."
"Yes."
Nangong Shunv always had her back to Qi Yan, and the two were five steps apart.
After a while, Nangong Shunv said softly again: "Although Jingnv is favored by thousands, she is not arrogant. As you can see: she is just a little more cheerful."
"Yes."
Nangong Shunv hooked the corner of her mouth and said leisurely: "This huge capital is full of ladies and gentlemen, and there is no such beautiful woman as Jingnv."
"Yes."
Although Nangong Shunv was talking about Nangong Jingnv's affairs, Qi Yan heard a sense of sadness from her words, fearing that her married life would be unsatisfactory.
"Although Jing Nv doesn't like it, she is very smart, and it works. Does she ask you to take her out on weekdays?"
"His Royal Highness's wise minister has already seen it, but he didn't mention going out."
"That's right, we've only been married for three days. If you have time, you might as well take her out for a walk. She likes novelties in the market and folks. You should know that."
Qi Yan couldn't help recalling her first meeting with Nangong Jingnu, and Nangong Shunv added something inaudible: "Don't worry, even if the father knows about it, he will never blame him..."
Nangong Jingnu chased after him all the way, but how could she catch up with a military officer at such a young age? Can only return angrily.
From a distance, I saw Qi Yan and her sister standing there, although one had his back and the other bowed his head, but from the white smoke wafting out from time to time, we could tell that the two had a great conversation.
Looking at the standing posture of the two, it seems that they are "trying to cover up". Nangong Jingnu stopped and subconsciously hid behind the rockery. When she came back, she felt inexplicable.
But why is she uncomfortable and uncomfortable
Is it because I robbed my sister's sweetheart
If there wasn't this innocent finger marriage, would they be enjoying the snow side by side at the moment, chatting and laughing freely
Instead of this now, pretending to be alienated
One is a talented girl who is proficient in painting and chess, and the other is an outstanding person who is "two yuan and one flower". They really match...
Nangong Jingnu sucked her nose that was red from the cold, took a sigh of relief, and walked towards the two of them.
"The wind is piercing, and Your Highness is still ill. Why don't you go back to Gong Yuchen and wait here."
The only thing Nangong Jingnv heard was this sentence, and she flashed over sadly, and ran over quickly: "Second sister~"
Nangong Shunv was caught off guard and hurriedly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes: "Are you back?"
"Second sister? Why are you crying?!"
After Nangong Jingnu asked, she regretted it. She took Nangong Shunv's cold hand and glared back, "Don't follow me!"
Qi Yan slowly lowered the foot she just raised and arched her hand: "Yes."
After walking a long way, Nangong Jingnu asked timidly, "Why is the second sister crying? But, but that person made you sad?"
The "that person" that Nangong Jingnu said was naturally Qi Yan, while the "that person" that Nangong Shunv understood was Lu Zhongxing.
Nangong Shunv shook her head. Seeing that no one around her asked in a low voice, "Jingnv...you, can you pay Luohong?"
Nangong Jingnuxiu blushed and waved her hands again and again: "No, no, I have nothing to do with him!"
Nangong Shunv asked in astonishment, "Luohong, you didn't pay?"
Nangong Jingnu hesitantly said, "I've delivered... Yes, it was Qi Yan who cut her arm and dripped blood."
Nangong Shunv's face showed bitterness, and she smiled sadly: "He actually cherishes you so much that Lu Zhongxing has never returned to his room after getting married."
"How did the elder sister hand in the brocade box?"
"Naturally, it's white silk that was handed in."
"How about that? It will be taken away by Zongzheng Temple!"
"The second son of the dignified Lu Mansion is not afraid, what am I afraid of?" Duan's tone was weak, but he showed the arrogance of a royal family.
But she still cried, facing the cold wind with tears trickling down.
Nangong Jingnu was so distressed that she took her sister to Weiyang Palace.
It would have been inappropriate for Lu Zhongxing to not come along for the three dynasties' big wedding. If his sister went to see her biological mother with red eyes, it would definitely make Empress Zhaorong worried.
After entering the Weiyang Palace, Nangong Jingnu declared the imperial doctor, but Nangong Jingnu actually developed a fever. The imperial doctor prescribed a prescription, and Nangong Jingnv prepared the medicine and fed her sister the medicine in person. After she settled down, she stayed by the bedside.
As the twilight twilight, the servants ordered the return banquet to be ready, and invited the two princesses to the banquet.
Nangong Jingnv didn't want to go, so she couldn't bear Nangong Shunv's persuasion. I had to ask the maid to serve me well before I got into the sedan chair.
Weiyang Palace was so close to her that she came early, and after sitting down, she looked for Qi Yan's figure, and saw Lu Zhongxing snorted displeasedly.
Although Lu Zhongxing was very tough in front of Nangong's concubine, he was a little nervous when no one came. Afraid that Nangong would ask questions, he bravely came to Nangong Jingnu's case: "His Royal Highness Zhen Zhen, why didn't His Highness Zhuohua come along?"
Nangong Jingnv had no intention of paying attention to Lu Zhongxing, but she thought about it and replied, "Second sister is ill. What? Brother-in-law doesn't know?"
Lu Zhongxing couldn't hang his face, he sneered: "Why haven't you seen your brother-in-law?"
Seeing Nangong Jingnu frowning, Lu Zhongxing retreated wisely.
The sky outside was completely dark, and the princes also arrived one after another, but Qi Yan was never seen.
"It's stingy, but I just said something..."
Nangong Jingnv was stunned: thinking of what Qi Yan said at the end, she remembered that Qi Yan respectfully knelt in front of her on the wedding night, and said, "My minister, only the servants are ordered by His Highness."
