The far road was close in front of me, I straightened my dress before I wanted to say goodbye, but I saw a light white embroidered robe standing in front of my eyes, blocking my way.
Looking up, seeing the gentle face of the third prince, he asked in a gentle tone: "Why do you comb your forehead like this?"
"It's really just that the maid is not good at craftsmanship, so she combed her hair like this." Ning Xueyan was a little surprised that she asked so persistently. She turned her head to look at Lan Ning, and pushed the matter to Lan Ning. , I don't want to have any private involvement with the emperor's aristocratic third prince.
"Slave... Slave will definitely give the girl a good hairstyle next time." Lan Ning took the words, lowered her head and replied timidly, as if she had done something wrong.
"I heard that the fifth girl rejected my marriage?" The third prince's eyes fell on Ning Xueyan quietly, and asked with a smile. The girl in front of her, at first glance, her clothes didn't fit her and her hairstyle didn't look decent. The whole person has not improved at all, worse than the maids in his mansion.
But if you look closely, you can see clearly that her pair of dark jade eyes are slightly cold, turning slightly, and they are actually charming in them. Even though there are so many incongruities, they still give people an amazing feeling At such a young age, she concealed it again. Since she is so beautiful, when she grows up, she will be peerless.
The third prince's heart softened involuntarily, and his eyes were actually reluctant to leave her face.
The question was extremely abrupt, how could one ask a boudoir and a weak woman about this marriage, not to mention that the two of them didn't have any affection in private.
Could it be that all women should be like Ning Yuling and Ning Lingyun when they see you, that's right! Ning Xueyan sneered in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face, she lightly pulled the handkerchief in her hand: "The Third Prince's residence is very good, but I can't protect myself, so why dare to sacrifice my life for no reason for such a thing."
While speaking, the wind blew, and the hair on the forehead was finely divided, and a trace of coldness in those bright water eyes could be clearly seen.
She was obviously the same person with the same attire, but she gave the third prince a different shock. She just stood there, not ashamed, and told him the reason openly, without any intention of hiding anything, so frankly.
In Hanshan Temple, Ning Yuling bullied her so much, and the soup she drank was poisoned, which shows how difficult her situation in the mansion is, and just now she saw a concubine with her own eyes, and she pushed her like that, almost making her Ruined face, all of these are telling the third prince that what she said is true!
It's not like playing hard to get like a lady, she's only stating a fact, so her eyes are clear and deep.
I don't want to lose my life, so I dare not accept his marriage!
Simple, but straight to the center!
It was the first time that the Third Prince saw such a smart and thorough woman. She had been unable to move an inch in the Hou Mansion, and now perhaps because of the greater crisis she brought, she felt inexplicably guilty.
"Mo Ru, I asked you directly from my concubine, and we will get married right away. From now on, you will follow me, and no one will bully you again!" The words flowed out of her mouth so naturally, and she reached out to pick up the words that fell on her subconsciously. A withered yellow leaf in her hair asked softly.
The man's slender fingers slid across her temples, Ning Xueyan was startled, her eyes turned a little cold, she subconsciously took two steps back, avoiding his hand, a faint blush appeared on her face.
She was a little angry that the third prince was so frivolous and rude.
In the eyes of the third prince, it was the blush on the girl's pale face, as beautiful as flower fat...
"Thank you, the third prince, for your kindness. It's just that grandma said that my sister has never been married, so how can I talk about my sister's marriage!" Ning Xueyan calmed down the anger on her face, and then gave a blessing, her eyes were as clear as water, " We have reached the intersection ahead, so we won't accompany the third prince!"
After finishing speaking, without waiting for the third prince to speak, he led his people to the other side.
There is no sloppy walking!
Such a weak woman is so decisive and sober. Of course, the third prince knew that what he said just now was too vain. Mrs. Tai made it clear that Ning Xueyan has two older sisters, and now it is her turn. If I raise it rashly, it will only cause a big disaster for her.
It's really the best for her to withdraw and refuse at this time! But just like this, it attracted him more and more. What he said just now was a lie, but this will really make some difference.
What kind of situation is it that makes such a beautiful girl be vigilant at every step and never dare to make a mistake. Looking at Ning Xueyan's leaving figure, the third prince unconsciously has a little more tender pity in his eyes.
Ning Xueyan didn't have that much time to be sentimental, and as soon as she returned to Mingshuangyuan, she sent Lanning and Qingyu out to inquire about news.
Not long after, Lan Ning and Qing Yu came back one after another.
"Girl, the Marquis of Ping'an and the third prince really didn't leave. They were all in the front yard, accompanied by our Marquis. We should chat in the study room, and the kitchen is cooking!" Panting, she made it clear what Ning Xueyan asked her to inquire about.
"The maidservant also went to ask about it. The lady next to Mrs. Chen is indeed with the second girl. The second girl is very quiet at the moment. No one in the Qingrong courtyard knows about the third prince's presence in the mansion." Lan Ning was more stable than Qingyu Many, when inquiring about things, they paid more attention to it.
Originally thought that the third prince was here, how could the second girl have no reaction at all, but it turned out that she was guarded by the Ling family.
"Girl, the matter between the second girl and the Prince of Li County is a matter of certainty. Could it be that the second girl is still thinking about the third prince?" Qingyu asked with blinking eyes.
Every lady is the most particular about fame and integrity, and the second girl and the prince of Li County are considered to be husband and wife. Does the second girl still think that she has the possibility of entering the third prince's mansion as a concubine
Ning Xueyan smiled slightly, leisurely picked up a small piece on the table, and took a bite. Others might feel hopeless and give up, but the problem is that Ning Yuling, who has always been arrogant and arrogant, is in her In her heart, she has always been self-centered, and she is the most favored daughter of the Hou family, how could she feel that she is not worthy of the third prince.
"Is there anyone else over there in the Buddhist hall?"
"There is no one else, the maidservant just went to see it, Mrs. Tai ordered the eldest lady to be punished, and only asked her to take Chen Nanny to serve alone. Chen Nanny will go to the Qingrong courtyard of the second girl, and there is no one around the eldest lady." Now, the woman guarding the door is getting old, so she must take a nap every afternoon, and there are usually no people in the Buddhist hall, so there is no need for her to open and close the door at all."
After listening to Ning Xueyan's instructions, Lan Ning even inquired clearly about the Buddhist hall.
The Buddhist hall is usually closed, only occasionally the wife will go, the old woman guarding the Buddhist hall is old and has some deafness, but fortunately, as long as she speaks louder, she can still hear clearly.
"Qingyu, if you go to the kitchen later, you want to order the fragrant kernel cake that I like to eat. You just say that I want to make medicine and drink it, and let the kitchen do it carefully. Don't come back. By the way, watch them make it in there and let them Don't worry, bring some rewards." Ning Xueyan took a sip of tea, with a cold smile on her lips.
Xiangren Cake is a very fine dessert. It not only needs to be filled with four or five kinds of nuts, but also needs to be prepared carefully. The pastry is very delicate, fragrant and sweet, and has an excellent taste. There is a master in Hou Fu who is very good at it. Do it, it just takes time.
"Yes, the servant will definitely watch them do it for a while, and will never be lazy!" Qingyu reached out and touched the thing on her cuff, nodded vigorously, and said without hesitation.
Although she doesn't quite understand why her girl is so accurate in everything, she also knows that her girl is no longer the incompetent fifth girl. Thinking of so many people bullying her in the past, but no one stood up to say a word for her, she felt that Feeling angry, fortunately, the girl now is no longer someone who can be bullied at will!
Such a change is of course the best, Qingyu is very pleased, of course she will not be obsessed with why the girl has become like this!
"Lan Ning, I heard that the second sister always has some snacks specially made for her at noon every day, but I'm so busy today, I'm afraid I can't deliver them for her anymore, I have to let the second sister know, don't Disturbed father's banquet!" Ning Xueyan's slightly lowered eyes flashed a trace of coldness.
She mentioned Ning Yuling here, but Ning Yuling was indeed not at peace.
In the room, Ning Yuling threw down the pen in her hand angrily. Looking at the words on it, the more she thought about it, the more she hated it. torn in half.
"Oh, my second girl, who are you angry with? You wrote a few words well, and they just disappeared. What a pity!" Chen Momo came over, picked up the note, and said persistently.
"What to write, I don't want to write, why should I write here? That little bitch is comfortable and has nothing to do!" Ning Yuling said bitterly. It may be Ning Xueyan's trick that the princes are together, and Ning Yuling can't wait to tear Ning Xueyan's face into pieces!
"Second girl, don't worry, it won't be long before fifth girl won't be comfortable. She will marry to Ping Anhou's mansion, and she won't be able to get better after this!" Nanny Chen coaxed.
"Marry to the Marquis of Ping'an, and be a Mrs. Hou. She is so cheap. My mother doesn't know what she thinks. She didn't send this cheap girl out, and finally sold her to that kind of place, so that I can calm down. hatred." Resentment flashed in Ning Yuling's eyes.
"Second girl, don't worry, that Marquis of Ping'an's mansion is not a good place. Up and down, it's full of shameless things. If a girl from a good family marries into it, how can she live long? If she really survives, who will she be?" She has a face and skin." Madam Chen said with a smile and a hint.
What he said was very cryptic, and he added some vulgar things, but Ning Yuling understood it, and immediately smiled, but then gritted his teeth and said, "Nurse, go tell your mother and let her Try to get my grandmother to spare my punishment, and I will also go to see the excitement of that little bitch, and see if she will die innocently by then."
Up and down that mansion, big and small sluts, when they see a woman, they are not like seeing honey, and they have to make a fuss!
"Second girl, so you have to be obedient, and you must not disobey Mrs. Tai again. Now that Mrs. Ma has been punished, how can she help reduce the punishment." Nanny Chen said earnestly, sighing in her heart, the second wife The girl was always arrogant and willful, so she wouldn't care about Ling's current situation.
If it wasn't for the fear that she would know about the third prince's visit to the mansion and cause trouble again, she wouldn't have to come and watch her at this time.
"Girl, girl..." The door was knocked open behind her, and a maid ran in excitedly.
