Mysteries hidden in the past
"Beijing" has brought a lot of shock to Nangong Jingnu. She has lived in the palace for a long time, and she has a deep understanding of the cruelty of the change of royal power.
The historical books she read in the past recorded events from the previous dynasty or even a long time ago, and this "Beijing" records the events that happened in this dynasty, which gave her a more real feeling.
Sitting on the carriage back to the mansion, Nangong Jingnv couldn't help but think: If Eri and Jiya went to support the plow department to seek marriage in Wei State, it would be difficult for the daughter whose marriage was rejected to marry. Ji Ya has become the favored concubine of her father.
No wonder, she is indeed a rare beauty...
Although it is a good thing for the father to rule the country, Nangong Jingnu couldn't help but imagine: if Sukhbaru left some leeway for the Tuba tribe, if he agreed to Erihe's marriage on the day of the grand ceremony, Beijing Will the results be different
Thinking of this, I have some doubts: Why did Sukhbaru refuse Erihe's marriage request
With Ji Ya's current appearance, she must have been a beautiful embryo since she was a child, and it is recorded in the book: Erihe brought a very rich dowry...
Erihe's move is undoubtedly to put his eight-year-old daughter into the plow department as a proton, which is beneficial to the plow department without harm, so why refuse it
Could it be that: the support plough department has already started to destroy the Tuba department, so it will refuse the Tuba department's marriage
That's not right. Wouldn't it be better if a favored princess was held as a hostage in the battle? Since Sukhbaru is known as the "prairie tiger", he won't even understand such a simple truth, right
This record in "Beijing" is only a few words, but it buried a mystery in Nangong Jingnu's heart.
The next day, Nangong Jingnu consciously went to the study to memorize a book, and after breakfast, took a carriage and set off for Zhuohua Princess Mansion.
The concierge of Princess Zhuohua's mansion saw the carriage, and greeted him with his feet: "See Your Highness Zhen Zhen."
"Get up." After speaking, he walked straight into the mansion, but the concierge said, "His Royal Highness Qi, our highness is not in the mansion."
"Where did the second sister go?" Could it be that she left the house in disguise
"Go back to Your Highness, there are people from the palace in the morning, His Highness Xuan has entered the palace."
Nangong Jingnu was a little strange: "Is it the father or Empress Zhaorong looking for the second sister?"
"This... Your Highness, please come in and wait for a while, the villain will ask Miss Bai Zhi to answer."
"Bengong is waiting here, you go and call her."
"Yes!" The concierge ran away in a hurry, and after a while, Bai Zhi came with small steps all the way.
After greeting me, Nangong Jingnu asked, "Why did the second sister enter the palace?"
Bai Zhi was also wondering, when the maid came to pass the word, she listened: It was said that the Empress Ya Fei had called their Royal Highness into the palace.
Bai Zhi answered truthfully, Nangong Jingnu frowned slightly, got on the carriage and said, "Enter the palace."
Although the concubines of the harem have the right to summon the princess to the palace, most of them are called by the biological mother to summon the daughter. Ji Ya and the second sister have no old acquaintances, why do they do this? !
Could it be that... I was hated for glaring at her yesterday? Don't you dare to look for your own trouble and turn to "bullying" the second sister
The more Nangong Jingnu thought about it, the more she felt that it made sense, and several times ordered the groom to hurry up.
Transfer to a sedan chair and go straight to Ji Ya's palace - Phi Xiang Palace.
Nangong Jingnu jumped out of the carriage, and the palace maids saluted.
"Where is my second sister?"
"His Royal Highness Zhuohua is talking with Niangniang in the main hall..."
Nangong Jingnu raised the hem of the palace dress and ran, and the frightened palace maids also trotted behind: "His Royal Highness, please slow down!"
Before the maid at the entrance of the main hall had time to report, Nangong Jingnu had already rushed in.
"Second sister!"
Nangong Shunv is sitting opposite Jiya. There are several kinds of refreshments and dried fruits on the table. Jiya holds a handful of melon seeds in her hand, and just took one out and bit it...
Nangong Jingnv came to Nangong Shunv's side, looked up and down, and was relieved when she saw that her second sister didn't seem to be "wronged".
Ji Ya retracted her gaze and chuckled lightly.
After eating the melon seed that was attached to his lips, he made a "squeak" and threw the remaining melon seeds on the plate: "Princess Zhen Zhen came by coincidence, Princess Zhuohua and I just mentioned you, and you are here."
The palace maid who followed them ran to the door of the palace, seeing that the three main masters were already greeting each other, she gave a thousand blessings from afar, and resigned.
Nangong Shunv took her sister's hand, guessing that Jiya couldn't see her face, her eyes showed gratitude: "Why is the little sister here?"
Ji Yayou said: "Of course I came to find you, maybe because I was afraid that you would be bullied by me."
Neither of the two women expected that Jiya would be so straightforward, especially Nangong Jingnu, who was poked in her heart, and her expression was even more unnatural.
Most of the Wei people are reserved, and facing a straightforward person like Jiya, they feel a little uncomfortable for a while.
Jiya grabbed a handful of melon seeds again: "Your Majesty allows me to let Princess Xuan Zhuohua enter the palace to accompany me at ordinary times. Princess Zhen Zhen's status is noble and Jiya does not dare to bother. If you don't want to sit, you can leave by yourself."
Nangong Jingnv couldn't help but rolled her eyes again, snorted softly, and sat next to Nangong Shunv: "Bengong just wants to sit down."
Ji Ya smiled, staring straight at Nangong Jingnu, her eyes fixed.
Seeing Nangong Jingnu's face getting hot, she felt embarrassed.
She didn't want to lose her momentum in front of this woman, so she straightened up and looked at Jiya.
I always feel that the other party's eyes are weird, and I can't find the words to describe it accurately for a while.
Talk about flirtatious
But although this look is seductive, it is not charming.
Explicit, right
They are all daughters.
Nangong Jingnu thought about it for a long time and could only describe Ji Ya's eyes as bold.
Yes, it is bold.
She has a distinguished status, and there are only a handful of people in the entire Wei State who are qualified to look at her.
Even if they looked at each other, they would never use such searching eyes, as if they wanted to read something through their own eyes.
Nangong Shunv secretly breathed a sigh of relief: This Ya Fei is really powerless to resist.
Not to mention the weird behavior, there are almost no etiquette rules.
Just now, he actually proposed to be "commensurate with his sister"! She is the new favorite concubine of the harem. Although she is about the same age as herself, she is not in seniority!
Nangong Jingnu glared at Ji Ya: "After watching this palace for so long, what did you see?"
Nangong Shunv secretly pulled her little sister's wide sleeves.
Ji Ya smiled and said, "The princess doesn't look at me, how do you know that I'm looking at you?"
Nangong Jingnu frowned slightly: "You are arguing!"
"In our grassland, look directly into each other's eyes when talking to show respect. Jiya respects the princess and only looks at the princess. Why is the princess angry?"
"you!"
Nangong Shunv said softly, "Niangniang Ya doesn't know something, the etiquette between the north and the south is not the same, so don't argue with this little girl over such trivial matters."
Ji Ya showed a sudden realization: "Is that so? It's Ji Ya's rudeness..."
Nangong Jingnu's expression turned slightly pale, and she nodded slightly.
The three chatted for a while, and Jiya began to tell interesting stories about the grassland.
Nangong Jingnu had just watched "Beijing" and was full of doubts, and Ji Ya, one of the parties, happened to be telling it, and she listened very carefully.
Occasionally, a few questions would be thrown, and Jiya answered them one by one, secretly a little surprised: this Princess Zhen Zhen's temper went away quickly.
Nangong Shunv longed for freedom in her bones, and when she heard that her daughter's family in the grassland could live so freely, she longed for it.
Nangong Jingnv saw that Ji Ya not only did not like her concubine, but instead showed a sense of freedom. When it comes to the wonderful things, they are afraid that they will not understand, so they will describe the picture in detail, supplemented by exaggerated actions, and gradually let go of their prejudices.
Nangong Jingnv was kind and forgiving, but this accidental meeting changed her view of Ji Ya a lot.
Thinking about the content of "Beijing" again, I felt some pity for the girl in front of me who was about the same age as me.
After Jiya finished speaking, she picked up the water glass in front of her and drank it, and wiped the corners of her lips with the back of her hand: "If you want to learn to ride, I can teach you another day."
Nangong Shunv chuckled softly. Even if she yearned for it, she didn't plan to ride a horse, while Nangong Jingnv had a shadow on riding. When she thought of Qi Yan's injury, she would never ride a horse again in her life.
Seeing Nangong Jingnu's expression of wanting to speak, Ji Ya asked, "Princess Zhen Zhen has something to say?"
Nangong Jingnv pondered for a moment, and she couldn't help her curiosity. She asked, "Back then... why did Sukhbaru refuse to marry?"
Ji Ya asked back, "How did the princess know?"
"I read a book called "Beijing" yesterday, and I can't figure out how to solve this problem. I also ask Niangniang to explain it."
Nangong Shunv puzzled: "What is the little sister asking?"
Ji Ya replied, "Abba once took me to the Zhanli Department to have a relationship with him, but was rejected by the Khan King of the Zhanli Department."
Nangong Shu's complexion changed slightly, and she looked around: Fortunately, there were no outsiders in the palace at this time...
But after all, Jiya is already the concubine of the father, it is inappropriate to talk about this fact.
Persuade: "Ya Niangniang... Let's talk about something else."
Ji Ya fell into memory, and it took a long time to say: "It was eleven years ago. I was only eight years old, and the Tuba tribe was expelled to the grassland near Luochuan, and Luochuan flooded and swept away a large number of people. Livestock. My father was forced to help, and when I heard that Qiyan Agullah was the same age as me, he wanted to use a kiss in exchange for a few pastures to ease the crisis…”
"and after?"
"Quiet girl!" Nangong Shunv shouted.
It's a pity that she was the only one in the field who was worried, Ji Ya's expression was indifferent and she asked, "Why did Princess Zhen Zhen suddenly ask this?"
"Bengong watched "Beijing" and was puzzled at this point, why Sukhbaru would rather declare war than agree to this marriage... No offense!
Ji Ya hooked the corner of her mouth and seemed to think of something interesting, staring at Nangong Jingnu with strange eyes again.
Seeing the magnanimous and slightly suspicious gaze of the other party, although she didn't understand why Nangong Jingnu asked this, she could realize that she was not malicious.
"Actually, I have also thought about the question raised by the princess, but after so many years, I still can't figure it out. Back then, my father brought a generous dowry. Although I was young, I was recognized as the Pearl of the Prairie, and there was no reason to refuse it. "
Nangong Jingnu agreed: "Bengong also finds it strange."
Ji Ya stared at Nangong Jingnu: "Unless..."
"unless?"
Seeing that Nangong Jingnu's expression was the same, she said lightly, "It's all in the past, let's not mention it."
