"My daughter, thank you for your kindness." Nangong Yue kowtowed respectfully, and at the same time felt countless complex eyes cast on her, including envy, jealousy, doubt, and resentment...but she didn't care at all.
Nanny Li passed the oral order and left. When Su led everyone back to the flower hall, every Nangong family member felt that something had changed. Presumably, the wives of these aristocratic families already knew about the great rewards awarded by the Empress Empress, and their eyes became warm and courteous. At the same time, they were also thinking in their hearts: Is this the emperor's intention, or is it just the empress' intention?
But no matter who it is, everyone knows that Nangong Mansion may really be revived this time!
The birthday banquet that followed became lively and smooth, and the banquet was harmonious and harmonious. Even Nangong Yan and Nangong Lin, who were ignored by no one at first, had more people to talk to.
After the banquet, Mrs. Su and the elderly ladies returned to the main hall to rest, and ordered Mrs. Zhao to take the guests to the garden for a stroll to digest food... When the sun went down, all the ladies and ladies were invited to go to the front theater to listen to the performance. .
The female guests have long heard that Nangong Mansion has invited the best opera troupe in the whole king's capital to sing, and they all agreed repeatedly.
The theater building in Nangongfu has two halls at the front and back, connected by a hallway in the middle, forming an I-shaped structure. The hall in front faces a courtyard, and a stage is built on the opposite side of the courtyard. The base of the platform is made of bricks and stones, square, surrounded by wooden railings and twelve columns. There is a small attic on the stage, and a patio is set on the ceiling, where mechanical equipment such as derricks and potter's wheels can be placed for use in fairy dramas.
"I heard that this theater building in Nangong Mansion can be regarded as the largest theater building in Wangdu. When I saw it today, it really lived up to its reputation." A lady in her twenties exclaimed.
Hearing this, Nangong Lin took the words courteously, smiling and introducing the wives and ladies non-stop.
Nangong Yue watched coldly, and followed the crowd into the hall of the theater building.
The Dafang table in the hall was filled with melon and fruit snacks. After a while, Mrs. Su and several old ladies were carried over by the wives sitting on soft chairs.
It wasn't until Mrs. Su waited for the old ladies to take their seats that Nangong Yue found a remote place among the girls and sat down.
At this time, someone presented a list of plays for Su Shi to order, and Su Shi discussed with several old ladies and ordered plays.
The play started soon, and Nangong Yue listened casually to the song "Eight Immortals Happy Birthday".
After listening for two rounds, Nangong Yue stood up and said to Nangong Yan beside her: "Second Sister, I'm going to change clothes and I'll be back in a while."
Several girls at the same table were fascinated by it, including Nangong Yan, and she responded casually.
Nangong Yue took Yimei out of the hall and went straight to the clean room behind the yard. When she turned around a long corridor, she heard a rustling sound coming from the front.
"Third Miss..." Yimei trembled in fright, and tightly clenched Nangong Yue's arm.
This girl's courage is really too small. Nangong Yue sighed helplessly, patted the back of Yimei's hand, and comforted her: "Yimei, don't be afraid, you'll be fine."
The three girls were younger than him, and they were all so calm, but he... Yimei blushed in shame, and the hand that was tightly holding Nangong Yue's arm loosened.
"Yimei, I'll go over and have a look, you wait here." Nangong Yue wanted to step forward as she spoke, but Yimei held her tightly.
She said shyly: "Third Miss, don't go, it's dangerous, what if a thief hides there? You can't have an accident!" She bit her lip and suggested, "Let's call someone over."
Nangong Yue was quite helpless, this girl was really timid. Patting her hand, Nangong Yue said calmly: "It's okay, I'll go and have a look. Yimei, let go."
Yimei wanted to say something, but she was caught by Nangong Yue's firm eyes and unconsciously let go of her hand. She mustered up her courage and said, "Third Miss, I will accompany you to have a look."
Nangong Yue nodded.
The two walked forward a few steps and looked through the gap between the branches, only to find a dark shadow on the high outer wall in front of them, turning over neatly and descending... The outline looked like...
A thief really came in over the wall! Yimei was so frightened that she trembled all over, and immediately panicked, she opened her mouth and shouted: "Come here, there is..."
Yimei couldn't keep shouting anymore, she saw a black shadow flashing by, and a figure appeared behind her like a ghost, slashing the back of her neck with a big palm... Yimei fell down limply before she even had time to groan .
At this time, Nangong Yue had already seen the person coming, her brows were slightly frowned, but she didn't shout.
Xiao Yi! Why is it him again!
Looking at the young man who was dressed in black but couldn't hide his beauty, Nangong Yue suddenly felt her temples twitching, and thought: Aren't you Xiao Yi, the God of Killing? It's really suitable to be a thief here
"soy Mujer!"
Of course Xiao Yi also recognized her, pointing to her nose and blurting out. I let her run away in the palace last time, but I didn't expect to meet her here again this time.
Where in life do not meet each other, this sentence is really true.
He looked playfully at the little girl in front of him who was so calm and calm, hugged his chest and said with a smile: "Hey, stinky girl, what's your name?" As he spoke, he seemed to think of something, "I see, you It must be from the Nangong family. I remember hearing from the maid last time that the empress had recruited the female family members of the Nangong family into the palace..." He looked at ease, as if he hadn't realized that he was a shameless thief.
"What are you doing here?" Nangong Yue asked without answering, she suddenly thought of the scene when she saw Xiao Yi for the first time in this life, suddenly she had a flash of inspiration, and blurted out, "Could it be that you bet with someone again?"
"How do you know?" Xiao Yi responded reflexively, then wrinkled his face in annoyance. He actually admitted it himself.
Nangong Yue almost rolled her eyes, but she guessed right. If she continued to talk to this guy in front of her, she felt that the awe she once had towards Xiao Yi, the God of Killing, was about to disappear completely. Nangong Yue supported her forehead weakly, and decided to go back to Mozhuyuan and quietly ask someone to take Yimei back.
Seeing that Nangong Yue turned around and was about to leave, Xiao Yi couldn't help being a little annoyed, thinking: Why has his charm plummeted since he came to the capital? Now even a little girl doesn't want to talk to him. One must know that in southern Xinjiang, with his unbelievably handsome appearance, everyone from an eighty-year-old old woman to a three-year-old child loves him very much!
Seeing that Nangong Yue was going further and further away, Xiao Yi hurriedly chased after her, "Hey, brat, since you already guessed that I came here for a bet, I will tell you the content of the bet mercifully."
"..."
"It's that Chen Quying, you have to make a bet with me to see if I have the guts to come and see the number one beauty in the capital, Nangong Cheng."
"..."
"Hey, smelly girl, you should also have the surname Nangong. Could it be that you are that Nangong Cheng?"
"..."
"Smelly girl, do you want to keep silent?"
"..."
"Smelly girl, you can ignore me, but can you tell me your method to attract bees?"
